I Begged for the Dead Man's Life, and I Begged the Immortal for It.

Xie Baideng, a young official in Yizhuang who only has forty-nine days to live, can borrow "the life that he did not have time to live" from the dead: he borrowed a life, acquired a skill, and received a debt that must be repaid; when he retrieved the name of the first dead person, he discovered that the real debtor was not himself, but the Immortal Dynasty who had written all living beings in the world into the fate storehouse.
