   The first is a traditional feng shui supernatural novel, already completed. It has no female lead, no system, strong suspense, and the male lead is intelligent. The book contains a lot of useful feng shui knowledge, and the writing is very realistic. There's also an audiobook version available. The second highly-rated supernatural masterpiece doesn't need much recommendation.

    The plum tree's trunk was already cracked and dry; its branches bore no leaves, no fruit, only bare, withered branches pointing to the sky, like the arms of a dying man, exuding endless desolation. The ground of the plum grove was covered with thorns and scattered rocks; fragments of a broken dragon robe hung from the thorns, and beneath the rocks lay a blood-stained imperial tablet. The design was complete, but Yuan Tiangang's brush did not stop. His wrist turned uncontrollably, and on the right side of the design, he wrote the prophecy for the fourth image: "Atop the tree, a scholar has a mouth. An old man in his golden chamber, controlled by others." Sixteen characters, the ink as black as lacquer, conveyed a cold sense of fatalism. Below the prophecy, he wrote the verses for the fourth image: "Refusing to dwell in the dragon palace and phoenix hall, soaring straight into the ninefold clouds. If the Jade Emperor inquires about human affairs, in chaotic times, literature is worthless." Having finished writing, Yuan Tiangang slowly lifted his brush. His body hunched slightly, his face ashen, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth again. A violent, furious, and endlessly resentful dragon aura of the Li Tang imperial family surged back from the Heavenly Secrets Silk, following the ink stains, like a wounded dragon, crashing into his meridians. The dragon aura corroded his bones, burned his heart and marrow. The pain was like ten thousand arrows piercing his heart, like his soul being torn apart.

The protagonist, Ji Ye, has awakened an "Abyss Filter," seeing everything as an everyday object. 👉 While others are terrified of the Headless Horseman, he thinks he's a dedicated deliveryman and even gives him a tip! 👉 While others are scared out of their wits by the sight of a deep-sea monster, he thinks she's a drowning girl, rescues her, and then forces her to sing a square dance! 👉 The most outrageous thing is that when the King in Yellow comes looking for trouble, he treats him like a performance artist, forcibly drags him into his house to play a murder mystery game, and then criticizes the script for its illogicality! Now, in his yard, a demigod is guarding the gate, a ghost king is mopping the floor, and an S-class monster is unclogging the sewers… Everyone's a villain (scratch that), everyone's a working stiff!
