   😲 Highly recommend "The Monster I Created!" It's high-energy right from the start, as the protagonist accidentally creates a mysterious monster, thus plunging into an unimaginable fantasy vortex.

   Reader note

   Amidst the interplay of smoke from barbecue stalls and phosphorescent glow from the underworld, *Grandpa Taught Me to Create Zombies* constructs a uniquely Eastern Cthulhu universe. The protagonist, Xu Yan, is a slick antique dealer in a flea market by day, but transforms into a "demon hunter" wearing a taotie-patterned mask by night, using his street-smart wisdom to unravel ancient taboos. While other works are still piling on supernatural abilities, the author has already pioneered the "karmic debt" system—for every demon the protagonist takes in, he must help it resolve its human entanglements. Thus, we see him drinking and exchanging pleasantries with a painted-skin ghost at a street stall, and deducing fragments of the *Luban Book* with a Nuo opera troupe at a funeral parlor. The absence of a female lead, however, fosters even more intricate bonds: the protagonist's struggle with the thousand-year-old spirit "Bronze Scale," and his fateful duel with the itinerant knife sellers, all ferment into a martial arts-style melancholy amidst the steaming heat of the hot pot. The most striking aspect of this work lies in its deconstruction of fantastical epics into the survival philosophy of ordinary people: the so-called saving of all living beings is nothing more than protecting that bowl of stir-fried noodles with pickled cowpeas on the street corner. When demons and monsters become life itself, this allegory of the common people, disguised as a tale of the supernatural, is destined to unleash a new wave of fantastical storms on Tomato Novels.
