Chapter 1 (1/2)
Alright guys, this is the novel I finished reading some time ago and I wanna recommend it to y'all.
It's a fast transmigration novel and it's danmei(obviously). Usually, it's not easy for me to finish a fast transmigration stories because I'll stop reading in the middle if the plot is too boring, weird, scary, etc etc etc. Since I managed to finish this one, I want to recommend it to you guys yo~
But of course, comparing to 'Quickly wear the face of the devil', this story's ending is only so-so ? But! It's still a recommendable one ?
Plus I think this novel has 1 or 2 more plot twist than QWTFOTD. One thing to note is Arc 3 or 4 (I forgot which one, it's the one with bodyguard) is the arc where the main plot starting to unravel so it's kinda bizarre but once you get past that arc, then it's all well :v
The t.i.tle for this novel is 那些年我们弄死的白莲花[快穿] / Those Years When We Killed the White Lotus. How's that for a t.i.tle? XD
Q & A
Q – Will you be translating this novel ?
A – Yes and no. Yes, probably the first arc to encourage other translator to pick it up. And no, I just want to recommend it yo.
Q – Can I put this in Wattpad/Tumblr/Whatever ?
A – No. Cannot. You can't. ไมส่ ามารถ. không thể. Tak boleh. не могу.
Q – Can I re-translate this to my language ?
A – No. Cannot. You can't. ไมส่ ามารถ. không thể. Tak boleh. не могу.
And oh, btw there's already a Spoiler thread for this novel in NU's forum ?
[edit] Uh, who put my translation up to NU? 0.0 The summary is wrong though. At least the MC's name is wrong ah. I didn't put it up to NU because I was lazy to do the summary … ah, the whole summary was MTL-ed. I'm a bit embarra.s.sed to be in the same page _(;3/ because I usually judge a translation by the summary quality _(;3/
s.h.i.+t ah…
[Edit again] Apparently the MC's name could be Zicheng or Zisheng but Cheng will only be used as last name it seems. Will edit the name to Zisheng later. And the MTL summary has been taken down, lol. Still, I'm lazy to do it because hey, I'm not the one who put it up NU.
1.01 Rebirth of the blackened white lotus
A pure white room, there was no light source but it looked very bright. A young man was leaning on a lounge chair in the middle of the room. The expression on his face was a rare peaceful look. His pair of eyes were tightly shut. His eyelashes were long, causing a light shadow (on his face). If not for his chest's weak breathing movement, one might mistook him as a perfect jade carving; beautiful but lifeless. Finally, the young man slowly opened his eyes. His pure black pupil carried a deathly stillness that was not in line with his age, like a pool of stagnant water; not a sign of life.
“Where… is this? Didn't I died already?”
He muttered to himself, and when he looked down at his hands, the stillness from his face finally broke.
“This is… me?”
This pair of slender and fair hands doesn't have any scars or calluses. It was not something his current self could possess… instead, it was a long long time ago when he was still studying at school. Just as he wondered what is going on, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind causing him to stiffen his back.
[h.e.l.lo Host, I am Bulingbuling, the glowing-in-brilliance System 001, a White Lotus Rescue System for ‘Leaving a Good name for White Lotus forever'. You will go down a journey with me to various worlds to save endangered White Lotuses. Let's move forward for our great cause!]
Bulingbuling, glowing in brilliance…. leaving good name for White Lotus?
This… what is this d.a.m.ned thing?!
[Dearest Host, due to a car accident, your body is now dead. I have stopped your time at the moment of your death. Now you have 2 options : One, accept the task. Earning enough points will let you to exchange a lot of things, you can even choose to go back to your world before everything happens. The other option is to refuse, then you will be dead for real. The system will not be able to bind with you from the rejection, the stopped time from the earlier moment will continue to move again.]
Although the System sounded particularly plain, but it gave people a lively feel like one is conversing with a child.
“If I accept the task, what kind of task do I need to do?”
Lin Zisheng's curiosity was provoked by this System. Of course, if anyone who knew Lin Zisheng is here, they would know that someone is going to be in trouble. Anyone who provokes his curiosity will not have any good ending, because that person will be thoroughly studied from the inside out by him; literally ‘from the inside out'. Just that this so-called System doesn't understand Lin Zisheng at all. Therefore, it walked further and further down the death-seeking route.
[Host-daren, we are the first White Lotus Rescue System in the parallel s.p.a.ce. Our goal is to protect the endangered species in the parallel s.p.a.ce – White Lotus; helping them to avoid all kinds of imprisonment, abuse and the fate of being killed!]
The System was talking so pa.s.sionately about their mission that it didn't notice a hint of cold light flas.h.i.+ng through Lin Zisheng's eyes the moment he bowed down his head.
White Lotus, huh?
Lowering down his eyelids and covering the maliciousness in the depths of his eyes, Lin Zisheng relaxed himself and placed his entire weight on the lounge chair. He seemed very relaxed but if one is to pay attention to his hands, one will find out that his hands by his side were tightly gripped; it has even turned white.
“I accept the task.”
Lin Zisheng's voice was steady and indifferent. In the short moment when he lost control, he pressed down all his emotions in the darkest place at the bottom of his heart.
[The first world we are going to enter: Rebirth of the Blackened White Lotus. Host-daren please get ready for the transfer, 3,2,1 —]
After a burst of white light, the Lin Zisheng who was originally inside this white room has disappeared. Only the slightly swaying lounge chair proved that he was here.
…
“That was a September weather. Although summer is over, but it still carried the heat that has not been dispersed. And in this weather, she walked into everyone's heart like a breeze.”
“She walked over from afar. A white dress swayed with the breeze, like the water waves spread out and gather together. Black long hair hung from behind her. However because of the wind, there were always a few strands of hair straying away. Sometimes sticking to her cheek, sometimes it floated away.”
“Her appearance was not extremely beautiful, but that white jade-like skin let other people to unable to look away. And the main thing causing people to get infatuated was her pair of eyes. Dark blue eyes like the sea carrying endless light within; like countless broken stars fell into the Milky Way.”
“Pa.s.sing by her, one would inadvertently smelled the lotus fragrance from her body, people can't help but be deeply attracted…”
Looking at the book in his hands, Lin Zisheng could feel the deep malice from the world. He didn't say anything, just holding the book in his hands and staring at System 001. There was no expression in that thick black pupil; just indifference. But because of this, his pupil seemed to look a bit darker, giving people a sense of suffocation and oppression.
