Starting on a Folklore Forum, I Invent Talismans

Because the spirits that ward off evil spirits have killed countless people—some ghosts have indirectly caused more deaths than the protagonist—it's truly outrageous.

I initially thought the protagonist was a ghost hunter, but after watching the scene with the mourning staff, I realized he's actually a treacherous villain. He disregards the consequences, using the prop to directly kill several families.

The Bureau of Investigation in the author's writing doesn't resemble a disciplined and religiously-minded organization; it's more like a puppet army. The protagonist is also difficult to judge. Ghost Scorpion sneaked into his home and almost killed him. If it were any other protagonist, they would have dug up the ancestral graves and used them as an outhouse. He didn't even bother to investigate.

I think it's well-written, but could the main character be a little smarter? I feel like he's always in a state of not understanding anything.

Seeing over forty pictures, why not make a chicken figurine for Li Ruonan's parents and relatives? Someone said they saw it online, thought it was interesting, and made one, just to put it at home as a decoration. They eat at other people's homes every day, but it doesn't seem like the protagonist cares much about them or their relatives.

It's a pity. If the characters had been better developed, the show might have been even more successful. But the character development in the local areas is really poor. Otherwise, if the subject matter wasn't so bad, I probably wouldn't have been able to finish watching it.

The beginning was quite interesting, but it didn't go as well later. I didn't like it from the moment Ye Shan started harming people. I initially thought it would be a turning point, but I was wrong. Knowing she had unleashed the evil within someone, she could have resolved it while the person was still weak, but instead, she kept waiting.

Initially, I thought the content of this work was acceptable. While the protagonist's personality was somewhat selfish and his personal charisma wasn't particularly outstanding, his actions were generally consistent. However, from chapter 220 onwards, the plot took a turn.

Honestly, the female childhood friend is the protagonist's childhood friend from the previous life, not the protagonist's. Furthermore, the protagonist, a nearly 30-year-old adult who transmigrated, wouldn't be significantly affected by memories from his childhood. If later plot points involved risking his life to save this so-called childhood friend, many viewers would likely turn away.

Putting aside other protective charms, this rooster charm alone, if widely adopted, could drastically reduce the mortality rate of ordinary people. But the authorities insist on limiting its use, letting the common people die first, and only addressing the potential dangers of this charm after thoroughly investigating its potential harm.
