After the first war between humans and ghosts, all life was devastated. What is even more frightening is that when the ghost clan died, a curse was placed on mankind, causing nearly half of the people on the land of China to die from the epidemic. The emperor lost the confidence of the people, the people broke out against Confucianism, and feudal rule was in danger.
Soon, a massive human rights movement swept across the land of China, promoting the idea of putting people as the center instead of the king. Wu Shuren wrote "The Scholars" to expose the hypocrisy of feudal rule. Lu Zijing wrote "The Cannibal Diary" to criticize the poison of feudal education to people... All of this made the Song Dynasty even worse.
Finally, the Song Dynasty coup. The cabinet controlled by wealthy businessmen made a decision: to adopt the "China Declaration" to recognize people's inherent rights. The Emperor of the Song Dynasty accepted the agreement and ruled without unification. Cabinet power is growing.
One calm afternoon, a farmer dug a spiritual mine while plowing the land. From then on, the industry of the Song Dynasty took off——
But this story is not about the great industrialization deeds of the Song Dynasty. This story is about how a group of immortal masters from the Song Dynasty continued to survive in this era when they no longer needed the protection of immortal masters.
Wait, I need to add some background knowledge here: In this world, evil energy gives birth to ghosts, and spiritual energy gives birth to people. The two tribes of humans and ghosts have also tried to live in harmony, but the brain circuits of the two races are different, so every time they live in harmony, they end in a war. The ghosts are good at using evil energy, but mortals cannot use spiritual energy. At this time, mortals need to rely on people who can use spiritual energy, that is, immortal masters, to protect them.
You said that the ghost clan cursed you and you got a disease? It's okay. The Taipei Hospital has newly developed a vaccine. You can take a shot.
You said that the ghost tribe came to threaten you and said that they would destroy your whole family? It's okay, please inform the Yamen. They have the latest version of the ghost-catching machine, which can catch you accurately.
You mean the ghost clan...? Are you really that idle when you think you are a ghost? Are you looking for trouble all day long?
Nowadays, most mortals get a headache when they see an immortal master flying in the clouds and mist, because the existence of an immortal master reminds them that they do not have the ability to control spiritual power. As a result, the status of immortal masters declined. As a result, some immortal masters became jobless vagrants, causing trouble all day long and making society restless.
So, how do they, the immortal masters, survive in the Song Dynasty where technology is taking off?
