Chen Jianwei studied calligraphy for four years, only to graduate straight into unemployment.
One day, she transmigrated into a cultivation world overrun by demons and ghosts, and discovered things were even worse here.
Everyone here drew talismans and cultivated immortality. She was the only one who couldn't.
Chen Jianwei stared at the page of scrawled talismans in silence for a long while. At last, she picked up her brush and carefully wrote a single character.
“Suppress.”
The next moment, the evil spirit fell to the ground, and a hundred ghosts fell silent.
Chen Jianwei: “...”
The good news was that she seemed to be able to cultivate after all.
The bad news was that she and the beggar she'd just accepted as her master were so broke they didn't know where their next meal was coming from.
So the master and disciple took commissions by day and played at being ghosts and spirits by night.
While others drew talismans to ward off evil, she wrote characters with her brush.
One “Suppress” crushed evil spirits; one stroke of “Kill” slew wicked specters.
Who'd have thought that pretending would actually get her somewhere?
--
Then one day, a man named Xie Yun showed up at their door.
His cultivation level was unknown, his origins were unknown, and his purpose was even more mysterious.
The one thing that was clear was that he had money.
The old beggar took the silver and immediately declared, “From today on, you're one of us!”
Chen Jianwei: “?”
How did this man look anything like one of us?
And yet Xie Yun really did start traveling far and wide with them, hunting ghosts and investigating cases.
Chen Jianwei kept an eye on him, while he investigated her. To make matters worse, a young man from a sect who was determined to investigate a “fraud” had joined their group.
Four people together, with eight hundred schemes between them.
After spending enough time together, Gu Chang'an began to suspect that Xie Yun, the man he never got along with, seemed a little... like his master, who had been missing for many days.
--
At first, Xie Yun only wanted to figure out one thing.
Who exactly was this girl who talked nonsense and loved money, yet could make a hundred ghosts bow their heads by writing just a few characters?
Later, he found out. By then, he couldn't leave.
