One day, Song Shuhang accidentally joined a chat group for hardcore fans of fantasy novels and chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur). The group members all addressed each other as "fellow Daoists," and their nicknames were filled with various titles like "Lord of a Palace," "Master of a Cave," "True Person," and "Celestial Master." Even the group owner's lost pet dog was referred to as a "Great Demon Dog Who Ran Away from Home." They spent all their time discussing alchemy, exploring secret realms, and cultivation techniques. One day, after lurking for a long time, he suddenly discovered that... Every single member of the group was actually a cultivator, the kind who could move mountains and overturn seas and live for thousands of years! Ugh, my worldview has completely shattered overnight!

3 香 The Fragrance of the City 香色倾城 Chang Shuxin常书欣Urban1.3M WordsCompleted We eat and drink to live, and to live well, we must first eat and drink well. Put more elegantly, that means satisfying every aspect: appearance, aroma, taste, texture, meaning, and nourishment. But though we eat and drink to live, we shouldn't live just to eat and drink. Fun and pleasure matter, too. Even the sages said, “Food and sex are human nature.” In plain language, that means that after enjoying good food and drink, we shouldn't forget to find a pretty girl to keep us company. That way, 0Votes274.8kRecs54.7kFans

Eating and drinking are for living. To live, one must first eat and drink well. To put it more formally, color, aroma, taste, shape, meaning, and nutrition are all indispensable. While eating and drinking are for survival, life shouldn't be just about eating and drinking; fun and entertainment are also essential. As the sages said, "Food and sex are human nature." In simpler terms, this teaches us that while enjoying good food and drink, we shouldn't forget to find a beautiful woman to accompany us, so we can eat happily, play comfortably, and live a carefree life. In short, "Fragrance of the City" is about this kind of tasteful eating, drinking and having fun. To sum it up elegantly: this is life!

5 异EN The Record of Unusual Creatures 异常生物见闻录 Yuantong远瞳Sci-Fi5.2M WordsCompleted Hao Ren is a good man, just as his name suggests. His ideal life is to get by in peace, renting out a modest home and making enough to live on without ever getting rich. At least, that was the plan before a bunch of lunatic creatures moved into his house. A remote, dilapidated mansion, a bunch of abnormal nonhuman creatures, and an employment contract from “the gods.” Put those three things together, and Hao Ren becomes the busiest landlord and most capable babysitter in the world. And so begins 101Votes6.1MRecs2.6MFans

Curator note

Hao Ren, true to his name, is a good person whose ideal is to live a peaceful life as a landlord who is neither poor nor rich—at least that's how it was before a bunch of crazy creatures moved into his house. A secluded, dilapidated house, a bunch of somewhat abnormal non-human creatures, and a labor contract from a "god"—these three elements combined make Hao Ren the busiest landlord and most capable nanny in the world. Thus begins the most chaotic, strangest, and most abnormal landlord-tenant story. "From the day I put my fingerprint on the employment contract, I knew I was on a sinking ship..."
