My new story next door, Don't Get in the Way of My Alchemy, is updating now. Please add it to your library~~
Gu Mingxuan wakes up to find that she has become the matriarch of a prestigious family in a book.
Her sons are all powerful, her grandsons are all handsome and heroic, and her granddaughters are all sweet and filial, keeping her company every day.
She has everything she could want. What a wonderful life.
Gu Mingxuan: Retirement fit for a king. This transmigration was worth it!
There's just one tiny problem:
She seems to be growing younger.
Her wrinkles are fading day by day, her figure is improving, and her back and legs don't ache anymore. She's looking less and less like a venerable matriarch.
No matter how hard she tries to hide it, someone eventually discovers her secret.
Unfortunately, it's the book's second male lead: Fu Xingchen, a son of a prestigious family who lives in her home and later becomes her family's political enemy. Her sons and grandsons curse him to die at every meal.
It's over. They'll think she's a monster, her family's wealth and status will be ruined, and her luxurious retirement will be gone!
But Fu Xingchen smiles gently. "Since you're feeling unwell, Grandmother, shall I help you to your room to rest?"
Gu Mingxuan doesn't dare move.
She knows that before long, he'll lead his cavalry to wipe out her entire family, hanging everyone's bodies on the city walls, including the original owner's.
What she doesn't know is that this will be the Nth time Fu Xingchen has done this.
Fu Xingchen awakens after his death.
He was once an immortal guardian of the Nine Heavens Mystic Realm, but after committing a sin, he was punished by being cast into this little world to suffer through endless cycles of reincarnation.
The people he trusts will betray him. The people he loves will kill him. The people he protects will tear him to pieces.
Birth, aging, illness, death, resentment, hatred, separation from loved ones, and unfulfilled desires: after enduring all eight of life's sufferings, he thought he would finally be released.
But he wasn't.
Endless reincarnation awaited him, again and again, from birth to death. His predetermined fate could never change, and his sentence was life without parole.
Until one day, his fate changed.
A wicked old lady suddenly started speaking to him in a cutesy, high-pitched voice.
(Reason for entering the writing contest: The heroine, Gu Mingxuan, is a recent forensic science graduate who gave up her major because she was afraid of bloody, mangled corpses. After transmigrating into a book, she repeatedly summons the courage to use her forensic knowledge to solve mysteries. In the process, she overcomes her fear of bones and comes to understand the true meaning of the profession, growing into an excellent forensic pathologist.)
Next story: Swallow the Heavens
I
Tuntun has a grand dream: to become the greatest Taotie in all of history.
A Taotie's greatness lies in its ability to eat.
She wants to find the biggest prey imaginable. Someone tells her the largest creature in the world is the Kunpeng.
But they say the Kunpeng went extinct in this age because spiritual energy is scarce. Tuntun isn't worried. Her lifespan is very, very long, and she has plenty of time to search.
One day, she meets a little fish in the ocean.
The book says this is a Kun.
Tuntun: I haven't read much. Don't try to fool me.
Well, it's too small to even get stuck in her teeth. She might as well raise it until it gets bigger.
II
Taiwei was once the greatest Kun in the world. A Kun's greatness lies in its ability to swallow.
But a great battle ten thousand years ago left him in decline. He transformed into a little fish and waited in the ocean for death to come.
He never expected to run into a little Taotie.
At first, he thought she had mistaken him for a pet.
Then he learned he was emergency rations.
Well, then, he shouldn't blame him for being impolite. Today, he'll show her what true greatness is.
Little Scene
Taiwei: Do you know how to eat a Kun?
Tuntun, drooling: How do you eat it?
Taiwei: Start here.
Tuntun leaps at him excitedly and bites the spot he pointed to.
Theme: Respect the old and cherish the young
His Highness Er Fool and Xiaozhu are also very matched.
Even the gods pretend to be magic sticks. He is indeed the Holy Son who has been reincarnated many times.
Ahhhhh, this is the second episode of a one-time update. Is it finished?
Even real gods are now Internet celebrities? He is worthy of being the number one scholar, and the verification is a matter of minutes.
Finished spreading flowers! Personally, I felt it was a bit rushed. It should have compressed several chapters into one. Fortunately, the extra episode has been previewed, so hurry up and update it.
Please give me more extras. This chapter is the second best chapter in my opinion after the first chapter. Very good idea!
It will be over so soon! Can't get enough! ! ! ! Depends on the sweet ending and extras! ! ! Please
This is the rhythm that is about to end.
"I won't persuade me" is a big bug for the author~
I won't advise you?
Wow, it feels like the finale
