    The fortune teller said that I was born with a precious destiny, and that the Flower Lady was reincarnated, and she had the Midas touch to turn gold into gold, commanding the power of flower spirits and tree spirits. When I grow up, my family will be prosperous - but when I was twelve years old, I got a strange disease and had a high fever. I always saw horrifying scenes. In my dream, I met a mother-in-law. She said that I could find an expert with hands and eyes who could save my life. Xiaomi would collect my soul, set up an altar and set up an array, and the immortal would ask for a seal. From then on, I embarked on a journey to worship my master and study Taoism, all I wanted was a way out! — I really recommend it! The female protagonist is 10 years younger than the male protagonist. When the male protagonist fell in love with the female protagonist, the female protagonist was not yet enlightened. Although, it was very sweet! Nothing against the law at all! In the early stage, the heroine was miserable and was tricked by her best friend. Later, she became powerful after practicing Taoism. The final ending will be reversed, which is unexpected. Suspense horror + Chinese metaphysics + urban love, I got hooked immediately after reading the first chapter. I listened to the audiobook twice and read the original novel twice. It can be said to be the most touching book I have read in my adult life. It's funny, tender, tear-jerking, scary, and monastic. The author's logic is very rigorous, and his writing style is also very good. Just reading the words makes you immersive!
