New novel, <i>Summoning Souls and Raising the Banner</i>, now open for advance follows! [Summon souls and raise the banner, bring peace to the eternally sleeping!] Blurb at the very bottom!
Blurb for <i>Starting with Spirit-Warding in the Mountains</i>:
In ancient times:
Those who spent their lives wandering remote mountains and wilds, helping people find lost things or acting as guides, were called mountain wanderers.
Those who lent out a knife instead of selling it, in exchange for a prophecy and a judgment of good or ill fortune, were called knife lenders.
In the present day:
Both professions have grown into established trades, with successors and their own schools.
Zeng Lingshu, a descendant of mountain wanderers, never imagined that simply trying to find out what had happened to his childhood friend would accidentally draw the attention of the Qi family of knife lenders.
Second Brother Qi was impossible to read, his presence cold and imposing.
He cast Zeng Lingshu a casual glance and said indifferently, “Find me some dang shen, and I’ll find your friend. Otherwise...”
Zeng Lingshu’s eyes shifted. He was a little surprised. A threat?
Their search for treasure would uncover bizarre and fantastical legends.
Everyone laughed at Second Brother Qi for having a useless successor by his side. They also wondered why the peerless treasure, the Black Dragon Bone Umbrella, would follow a master like him.
“The Black Dragon Bone Umbrella would never follow someone like that.”
“No wonder it’s followed him all this time and he’s never even opened it.”
Zeng Lingshu smiled without changing expression. “Oh.”
Until one day, deep in a mountain cave, Qi Ye fought desperately to protect Zeng Lingshu as he retreated. But the other man silently opened the Black Dragon Bone Umbrella...
“Problem solved!” Zeng Lingshu slung the umbrella over his shoulder and raised an eyebrow at Second Brother Qi.
Everyone: “???” Wait, you mean you’ve been pretending to be weak while hiding your true strength this whole time?!
Second Brother Qi looked at him: “...”
Not long after, Zeng Lingshu attended a gathering of the family elders, only to come face-to-face once again with Second Brother Qi, his expression as cold as ever.
Qi Ye: “I still haven’t found your friend. A knife lender keeps his word, so I’ll go with you.”
Zeng Lingshu: ...
Thanks, but with you being this cold, I’m actually kind of scared.

New novel, <i>Summoning Souls and Raising the Banner</i>, now open for advance follows! Blurb:
In ancient times: Guide the banner to summon souls, cleanse and quiet their spirits, invite them across the bridge, and recite sacred repentance texts.
In the present day: Summon souls and raise the banner, bring peace to the eternally sleeping.
The mysterious descendants of soul summoners have carried on their trade to this day, still making a living by guiding spirits across the bridge. But the method of “summoning souls and raising the banner” has long been lost, and no one knows how to use it. This mysterious ritual and its extraordinary abilities have become a legend, and a source of regret for the Jing family.
Jing Ge, a descendant of soul summoners and the future head of the Jing family, is actually a cripple. People have always looked down on the disabled heir and thought little of him.
Yuan Tian, an unwelcome guest who came to the Jing family seeking shelter, stood before Jing Ge one day and said, “Do you want to cross that bridge? I can help you. But you have to help me find something... a soul-summoning banner...”
Jing Ge narrowed his eyes, considered it for a while, then nodded.
From then on, the disabled man had an ally to cross the bridge with...
On the other side of the bridge, Jing Ge finally discovered what his family had been doing.
He slowly rose from his wheelchair and made a “shh” gesture to Yuan Tian.
Yuan Tian stared in disbelief. “What? You can stand?”
Jing Ge gave him a faint smile. “I can, but I mustn't.”
Yuan Tian: “Why?”
Jing Ge: “If you want to know, then watch me closely.”
Yuan Tian: ...
What are you scheming, you little brat?
Jing Ge: ...
And you have the nerve to talk? You're the one who's scary!
Yuan Tian: ...
Reader's guide: An inspirational long novel with a male lead
Theme: Love wholeheartedly, and live well.
There are still many details left unexplained at the end. It ends too quickly. Is there any extra story? The content in front is rich and substantial, very attractive.
I am confused and can't wait to see the future development. Reading this article feels a bit like watching martial arts when I was a child, hahaha
Wow, isn't this supposed to be a sperm? (Dog head. Jpg
New article "Calling Souls and Hanging Flags", please collect it! Please support! Please check in! In ancient times: flags were used to attract souls, to quiet the soul body, to lead people across the bridge, to recite precious confessions Today: Hanging banners to summon souls and save eternal sleep
Finished reading. This is the ending.
After reading it, the ending is indeed a bit sloppy, but the beginning really attracted me. If the author wants to change the ending in the future, I will definitely come back to read it. In the end, I felt that many things were not involved and explained clearly, and the protagonist did not have a highlight moment at the end. If anything, it is more touching. Some people also suddenly became lunch boxes. It felt like flesh and blood before, but the ending suddenly passed by? The previous content is really good, I stayed up late watching it haha
The second brother has been explicitly hinting at it, and now he's hitting it straight. Take Mr. Zeng down and charge!!
? Didn't the little scholar's centipedes get rid of them with ginseng? Not cleaned?
Alas, things have changed and people have changed. Mr. Zeng's former friend is now the only one left with him.
Okay, I finished reading it and am making a new chapter. The ending is too hasty. You can see that it is an imitation of the characters of Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling in Tomb Raider Notes, but the imitation is not good enough. Gong is like a dispensable person. He says he is doing it for the protagonist, but at the end there is no comfort or anything else. He also deceives him under the guise of doing it for Shou, and even a passerby can't stand it. Then Shou becomes even more funny, saying that he has his own way of doing it, and then adds soy sauce, and sees the black dragon umbrella flying around. This attack and shou are a perfect match, soy sauce attack, pretentious shou. Because of the character of gong shou, I was so frustrated that I couldn't sleep all night. I felt like I was being fed a character that the plot could not fix. I was convinced. Why don't you just let me take the blame? The effect of writing it is like a negative feeling, and you have to write first to like the feeling, where you like it, like to feel the opposite, like the feeling to be deceived, and you can be coaxed after a sentence or two of apology. If you like the feeling, you believe it unconditionally, and hide everything. As long as you write be, write the feeling to death, I am not so uncomfortable. Do you respect the feeling in your writing? My dear, the author, you can't write the attack and control from the point of view of the feeling. I won't say anything else. I'm so disgusted. I'm sorry.
