I am Qin Lanyi, born in the fourth year of Kaiyuan.
During the Dragon Boat Festival of my Double Seventh Year, the Five Poisons broke through the city. I squatted in the cellar and watched in horror as a cloud of scorpions leaked into the cellar well.
I hit the wall of the well. It would be better to die quickly than to be stabbed to death by a scorpion. It was too painful.
But I don't seem to be dead. I opened my eyes and saw a strong man dragging me to walk. Although I couldn't feel the pain, I still wanted to say: "It's so disrespectful!"
Then I realized I couldn't move, let alone speak.
"You're dead." The man dragging me said.
It belongs to your mother and maidservant! You just died and your whole family died!
"It's a coincidence that you died. The whole city's resentment is focused on you."
I really want to spray my tongue all over his face, talking nonsense!
Who knew, that was true.
He told me that his name was Zhong Kui, and that forcibly crossing me would seriously injure his vitality. Besides, we were destined to be together, so he accepted me as his female disciple, practicing ghost ways and proving the art of yin and yang. At that time, some Taoist priests also raised ghosts, but they always used ghosts as soldiers. There were few people like him who were both teachers and fathers. After he became a god, I stayed in the mortal world and didn't want to follow him. That idiot, I cooked for him for 849 years, washed his clothes for 849 years, learned the Tao for 849 years, and caught demons for 849 years, but he was willing to go to heaven to be controlled by others.
I have long since attained enlightenment and cultivated my human body. It was shaped according to the way I was alive, with both form and spirit. The only mistake I made was to respect the original form too much, which caused me to remain in the shell of a fourteen-year-old minor for hundreds of years.
