Raising the Evil Spirit

At sixteen, Gu Yan joined the army, riding into battle and shedding blood and sweat for nearly ten years. However, he was framed by treacherous ministers and demoted by a foolish emperor, who feared the high merits of his ministers would overshadow his own shaky rule. Accused of treason, he was sentenced to death by a thousand cuts, and with a single light decree of “execute him in the market, exterminate his family,” the emperor sent one hundred and seventy-nine members of his family to their deaths.

With the pain of one thousand eight hundred and twenty-four deep cuts engraved in his bones, Gu Yan did not enter the cycle of reincarnation but instead attached himself to a “luck-bringing charm” in the home of Su Kun, an unemployed young man hundreds of years later. To make matters worse, Su Kun happened to resemble the foolish emperor by seventy percent…

All of the above is a fog! In reality, this is a tragic story of an ancient general’s soul traveling to modern times, where, after scaring Su Kun to the point of crying out in terror, he discovers he has mistaken the person.

An interesting silly story, quite enjoyable so far. ML is so tragic having died from a thousand cuts punishment... And MC is a scaredy cat who attracts ghosts and bad luck just by existing. Overall, recommended.

About the above review, the emojis are not jarring and they simply were very popular in danmei back then, so I don't find them off. It even adds vibes

木苏里 has written some decent novels, this isn't one of them.

You can clearly see that it's an older work, it reads like a very bad fanfiction written by someone who is 14 - at best.

All the T-T and other emoji alone make it unreadable, it's so jarring to see something that belongs in a chat in a novel, sometimes even several in a single chapter.

There's nothing to say about characterization, the humor or anything else, it has the quality of some random tumblr fic or roleplay, I can imagine that... more>> 木苏里 is probably ashamed of this.

I can only recommend reading her more recent works and leaving this one in the past, although she's still not perfect, she made noticeable progress over the years and wrote some solid stuff. <<less
