The Secret Story of Liuxia: Sleeping Arhat

My name is Liu Jue, and I was born in a run-down village by the Huaihe River. When he was eight years old, he fell from a willow tree in a mass grave and was in a coma for six hours. When I woke up, I had something new - I could see things that others couldn't. Later I learned fortune telling from the blind man Chen Xuanping. Before he died, he asked me to bury him thirty meters southeast of the willow tree. He also gave me a secret book and a wooden stick full of marks. Master Sun Buyong told me that I am the thirty-third generation disciple of Sleeping Arhat. That wooden stick is called a measuring ruler, and every scratch on it is Chen Xuanping's record of the number of times I "slept over"—three hundred and seventy-four times in eight years. Every time I fall asleep, my soul leaves my body and goes to another place. That's not a disease, it's a skill. I rely on this skill to do things for people in Liugou Town by the Huaihe River: helping those begging for children, transporting souls, arranging graveyards, fishing souls from the bottom of the water, suppressing possessed evil spirits... The more people I help, the heavier my debt will be. Uncle Master said that our sect has five shortcomings and three shortcomings, and it will not end well. But I'm not afraid, I picked this life up. I just want to know - who is the woman with the same face as me in the cave under the willow tree? Why was the suona that was supposed to be buried with her in her arms? And why is there still a word "Liu" engraved on the measuring ruler? All the answers lie in dreams...
