Blackwater Corpse Coffin Fiction
Blackwater Corpse Coffin

Master once said that I am the reincarnation of a Yang Lingzi, destined to have an incompatible fate and destiny. The only reason I have survived until now is because of a pure Yang energy in my fortune. Someone like me is destined to live a turbulent and unsettled life. Looking back on my early experiences, it was indeed a mix of danger and hardship. At the age of six, I was haunted by resentful spirits; at seven, I narrowly escaped death from a flying corpse; at eight, I was targeted by a person who raised ghosts and came very close to becoming a little ghost myself... But without going through these ordeals, perhaps the deep connection between me and Master would never have blossomed. The reason I am writing this book is to remember and commemorate. Over time, I am afraid I will forget many things. Author's self-defined tags: witty metaphysics.
