The Monster Hunter's Notes

On the day I was born, my village was struck by a series of bizarre events. First, Old Wang's white-haired dog, which had been with him for eight years, donned a black robe and stood upright, wandering the streets before stopping at my house to bow. Meanwhile, a horde of unusually large rats with blood-red eyes scurried through the streets, gathering at my doorstep and refusing to leave. This unusual sight enraged the village cats, sparking a fierce battle. Contrary to their usual behavior, the rats fearlessly clashed with the cats, leading to a gruesome scene with casualties on both sides. The villagers watched in stunned silence, while the elderly commented that such unnatural occurrences were omens of chaos as per ancient beliefs. That night, the strange occurrences continued with eerie opera singing emanating from an open space near my home. Curious onlookers ventured out only to discover the performers were figures made of paper, and the audience was a motley crew of supernatural beings surrounding a coffin. Inside the coffin, an old woman watched the spectacle with great interest. This sight terrified the villagers, who fled back to their homes, praying fervently for divine intervention from every deity they knew. The entire village, including my family, spent a sleepless night in fear. The following day, the creatures had vanished, leaving behind a mess that confirmed the night's events were not a dream. In rural areas, such supernatural incidents were often taken seriously, causing widespread alarm and speculation about a curse on my family. My grandfather, dressed in tattered clothes, rushed from the mountains and without explanation, began to beat my father and uncles severely, afterwards holding me and weeping bitterly. He ominously remarked that I was born a "bearer of sins, despised by both humans and ghosts," hinting at a mysterious affliction tied to my existence. That night, I developed a high fever and struggled between life and death, with my grandfather and uncles fighting off a malevolent spirit attempting to drain my life force. They fell ill from the ordeal, taking a month to recover. Years later, I learned of my grandfather's reasons for naming me Zhang Jiu Zui, meaning "Nine Sins," reflecting the burdens I carried from birth. Despite my introverted nature, inherited from my father's quiet demeanor, my grandfather took pride in my disinterest in worldly affairs, often taking me to his well-kept but humble abode filled with books on exorcism, folklore, and esoteric knowledge. I spent years immersed in these tales of demons and diviners, shaping my understanding of the world until academic pressures from high school forced me to visit less. My high school years ended in disappointment when illness ruined my chances at university exams, an event my grandfather oddly celebrated as fortunate. After deciding to retake the exams, my life took an unexpected turn when several luxury cars arrived at our village, heading straight for my grandfather's humble home. The well-dressed occupants from the cars approached with formal documents, knocking on his door with a sense of urgency and respect.

Cultivation Fever

After escaping his pit of despair, Oscar wonders if reincarnating into the world of his dreams saved him, or plunged him into newfound terrors. Forced to become strong with no endpoint in sight, he cultivates through infancy, relying on the only thing the elder gave him. The mystical Soul Becoming World Technique. With his past life’s experience and knowledge of cultivation novels, Oscar expected it to be easy. But of course, it wasn’t that simple. From demonic trials to family torment, even his early years were fraught with pain. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Cultivation Fever is a Western interpretation of the Chinese Cultivation genre, focusing heavily on realistic progression, lifelike characters, and emotional turmoil. As an avid reader of the genre, the lacklustre stories, shallow characters, and shoddy translations consistently disappointed me, so I strived to write an original high-quality interpretation with real depth. If you're a fan of gritty, realistic fantasy, you'll love this series. If you have never heard of cultivation, this book is a perfect start that eases you into the core concepts of Chinese martial fantasy. For die-hard fans, it is a fresh take on the genre with deep character development, diving into the brutal reality of cultivation.

Upon her arrival in this new world, Ling Wei faces a series of challenges. Lost and disoriented, she is mistaken for a young man due to her appearance. Embracing this misconception for convenience, she navigates the unfamiliar landscape and finds refuge in Dragon's Edge Woodcutters, a thriving woodcutting business owned by the resilient and beautiful Wu Meifen. Wu Meifen, a young single mother and determined businesswoman, is immediately captivated by Ling Wei, who she believes to be a resourceful young man. For Ling Wei, it is love at first sight. Despite the initial confusion and the secrets they both harbor, a bond begins to form between them. Amidst the bustling life of Dragon's Edge Woodcutters, Ling Wei and Wu Meifen agree to a marriage of convenience—Meifen for the stability and father figure Ling Wei can provide for her son, and Ling Wei for the chance to stay close to the woman she loves. As they work side by side, their relationship deepens through shared struggles, tender moments, and the slow burn of mutual attraction. Interwoven with their daily lives are the enigmatic blueprints that brought Ling Wei to this world. As she unravels their secrets, Ling Wei discovers that her journey through time is part of a greater destiny that ties her to Wu Meifen and the legacy of the woodcutting business. Blueprints of Time is a romantic tale that blends historical intrigue with the endearing anecdotes of two women from different worlds finding love against all odds. With each passing day, Ling Wei's pursuit of Wu Meifen's heart reveals the timeless blueprint of love, etched across the ages. ○○○○○ As Wu Meifen emerged from Ling Wei's small cabin, retying the sash of her outer shirt, she found herself face-to-face with her aunt, Wu Chen's wife, and her cousin, Zhang Mingyi. Zhang Mingyi's eyes widened in shock. "Why are you coming out from there?" Her aunt, already letting her imagination run wild, gasped, "Xiao Fen, you?!" At that exact moment, Ling Wei followed Meifen out, still fumbling with her own disheveled outerwear. "Ms. Wu, you don't have to—" Ling Wei began, intending to tell Meifen she felt much better and didn’t need further assistance. But she stopped short when she noticed Meifen standing stock-still, her eyes locked on her aunt and cousin, who were staring at them in disbelief. Sensing the brewing storm and the potential for scandal, Wu Meifen swiftly took control of the situation. "It's exactly what Auntie thinks," she declared, her voice steady. "And I have come to agree to this marriage." "You!!" The exclamation came in unison, filled with shock and disbelief. Wu Meifen's aunt and cousin were left speechless, their minds racing to comprehend the sudden revelation. Meanwhile, Ling Wei, caught off guard, stood 70% confused and 30% bewildered, her heart racing as she processed what had just happened. Had her crush just proposed to her, albeit indirectly? The thought sent a thrill through her, mingling excitement with the lingering confusion.
