   This book lacks a structured narrative; reading it is like reading the official history of the Ming Dynasty – the content is very fresh. The protagonist served as a high-ranking official in the first five reigns, and his master was the legendary Zhang Sanfeng. In the fifteenth year of the Hongwu reign, he was taken down the mountain by Zhu Yuanzhang to treat Empress Ma's illness. This novel is highly recommended; it's very good.

"I squatted down and looked, and the beads on the abacus in the dead man's hand were engraved with 'three' and 'nine,' the window paper paste was mixed with saltpeter, the flower girl's cuffs were stained with phosphorus powder, and the shoemaker said the red clay was the same color as the mass grave, but when I touched it, hey, there was more sand than in the mass grave!"
