I wonder if the author has seen "The Haunted House" or "The Human-Eating Fetus," which is a classic ghost movie set in the Republican era. Now that the protagonist is in several Hong Kong film worlds connected by Republican-era settings, it would be a good idea to add him to the story.
Updates have been a bit slow lately. Please update more, more! I'm poor, this is all I can offer.
Many righteous masters spend a great deal of time testing a disciple's character before accepting them as apprentices, which they consider a matter of course. However, if they encounter someone who absolutely needs to learn martial arts in a short period of time (like the protagonist who wants to save his mother), then their tests, which often last one or two years, become harmful. It's no wonder that many people have been led astray by this.
The opening was very immersive, but the scene where the author kills Chu Renmei at the end felt a bit fantastical, and the atmosphere of horror was lost. However, it's clear that the author put a lot of effort into it.
... I was so disgusted by the opening that I didn't want to continue reading. The protagonist's personality felt like that of a pedantic, filial son from ancient times—extremely cowardly, incompetent, and kind-hearted to the point of being nauseating. The scene in prison where he was humiliated and had urine poured on his head was particularly toxic. He was the epitome of an honest person; unless you were pushed to the brink, he wouldn't know how to fight back, only capable of powerless rage.
The protagonist practices martial arts for a few days, becoming dark-skinned and ugly, yet he still expects Aunt Thirteen to take a liking to him. At most, she'll tell him she'll repay him in the next life, not that she'll offer herself to him.
Upon seeing the second world, I couldn't hold on any longer.
The story begins with simple fare, but gradually becomes increasingly toxic. The opening scene, featuring an old corpse in a mountain village, realistically portrays the reaction of a loser encountering a supernatural event. The protagonist suffers greatly before finally defeating the boss. The plot is reasonable, but the writing is weak and the character development is mediocre.
Holy crap, why did I even open this book? It's so utterly useless. With this kind of mentality, you'd only be a lowly person in primitive society. Is this another one of those useless stories where everything is just a halo effect? Or is it the kind that tortures the protagonist?
This book is truly ridiculous. On one hand, it says things like "it's impossible for a loser to transmigrate like this," and on the other hand, it gives the protagonist superpowers, which are just some crude setups. Things like his fighting spirit explodes at the thought of his parents, and his will to not die explodes again.
The table of contents doesn't even begin to describe him as a hero; does he deserve it? The protagonist's cowardly behavior isn't even worthy of being called a dog. He even transmigrates to a movie world with a system and precognitive abilities—these kinds of novels are just for fun; who would want to read a coward like that?
