Mountain Wanderer

Lu Tong spent seven years studying medicine in the mountains, but upon returning home, he found everything had changed.

His eldest sister, a victim of foul play, met a tragic end.
His elder brother, wrongfully imprisoned, languished in dungeons.
His father journeyed to the capital to seek justice, only to meet a watery demise on the road.
His mother, driven to madness overnight, perished in flames.

Lu Tong packed his medical kit and headed to the capital of Jingzhou.

'Debts must be repaid, and lives must be avenged!
'If there's no judge, then I'll be the judge from Hell!'

In the capital, noble families faced successive tragedies,
Commander Pei Yunxing quietly investigated the matter,
And suspicions fell on a young woman from the Renxin Medical Hall.
However...
Before he could find evidence,
The girl made her move against him first.

Smiling Under Lanterns

Lin Danqing was momentarily stunned, "Huh, wasn't she just here?"


"She might have been called away by someone else," Lin Danqing turned around, "I told her that the exorcism ritual will start in an hour, so she should be back soon."


"Did Marshal Pei need her for something?"


He shook his head, about to speak when several princes called him, and he said nothing more, but turned and left again.


The noise and commotion of the crowd gradually dissipated, and from the depths of Chang Le Pond, several Palace Attendants emerged from the courtyard, leaving the storeroom quiet and undisturbed.


The storeroom was cluttered with various-sized masks and wigs, sparklers shaped like wolf teeth, and skull dolls, but right in the center, there was a huge puppet with golden eyes and a white face, wrapped in brocade cloth. It stood as tall as a man and was especially heavy, resting on a wooden board fitted with wheels, looking quite impressive.
