"It really is... Brother Qin?"

Yin Hang felt his lips go dry, his head went blank, as if he had been hit hard on the head by a battering ram, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

Peng Shaoxun adjusted his glasses and said, "According to the department's investigation, Qin Zijun was in a car accident three months ago and woke up recently, becoming a reincarnated person."

"This aligns with what we've known about reincarnations in the past."

"Some people wake up one night and become reincarnated, while others, like Qin Zijun, encounter accidents for some reason and wake up as different people."

"Yin Hang, you just met with him. What changes do you notice in Qin Zijun compared to before?"

Yin Hang carefully recalled every detail of his interactions with Qin Zijun, swallowed hard, and said, "Brother Qin... he used to be quite outgoing and liked to chat and joke with people."

"But this time, after he woke up from his coma, he became unusually composed, and there was a feeling that he didn't care about anything, as if he was about to become an immortal."

"I thought Brother Qin had encountered something big, which made him see things in a new light and that's why he's changed like this. I never expected this..."

Peng Shaoxun nodded and said, "Regardless of whether this reincarnated person cultivated to the middle or upper three realms in the past, they must have cultivated for a long time and be quite old. It is normal for this to happen."

Yin Hang hurriedly asked, "Then...is Brother Qin already dead?"

Peng Shaoxun nodded and then shook his head: "It can't be said that he died. The reincarnated person obtained Qin Zijun's memories, so the two have merged."

"Qin Zijun has a karmic connection with this reincarnated person, and his memories will have some influence on the other person, but the influence will not be too great."

"Generally, reincarnated individuals are divided into three types. The first type is reincarnated during infancy, which is almost the purest way to live out a second life."

"One type is like Qin Zijun, who is reincarnated when she is halfway through her life. Such a reincarnation is more like the fusion of two people."

"There is another special type, which is those who were extremely powerful in their previous lives, had unwavering beliefs, or were pure demonic or evil cultivators."

"Because their original beliefs are completely different from their own, these reincarnated individuals will undergo a drastic personality change and become entirely different people."

Yin Hang listened carefully to Peng Shaoxun's explanation, fearing that Qin Zijun would completely "die" and become someone else.

"That's why I kept you here, Yin Hang, and told you all this. You and Qin Zijun have known each other since childhood and are best friends."

"Qin Zijun belongs to the second type of reincarnation. He will definitely bear the karma with you, and the organization will assign you a mission."

With trembling hands, Yin Hang picked up his teacup and took a sip. He whispered, "The organization wants me to monitor Brother Qin?"

Peng Shaoxun chuckled: "Don't put it so harshly. I just want you to make contact with him and find out what he's thinking."

"In cases like Qin Zijun's reincarnation, she wouldn't have been particularly powerful in her previous life; she definitely wasn't one of the top-tier experts."

"The government today is not the same as it was thirty or forty years ago; it has the ability to restrict such reincarnated individuals."

"These reincarnated individuals have cultivation experience from their previous lives, so their cultivation speed in this life will be very fast."

"If he is willing to cooperate with the government, the government can also provide him with cultivation resources. After all, the spiritual energy has just recovered, and it is still quite difficult to cultivate now."

"If he is unwilling to cooperate with the government and only wants to cultivate on his own, that's fine too. As long as he doesn't cause trouble, the government won't interfere."

Yin Hang breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

It seems that Brother Qin hasn't changed that much these days; in his eyes, he's still his own Brother Qin.

The two grew up together and are best friends. He didn't want to do something like spying on someone, which would hurt their relationship.

At this time,

Peng Shaoxun's expression turned serious as he said, "In addition to that, the organization has another task for you."

"What mission?"

"The organization will give you access to monitor the network. You need to monitor Qin Zijun's online activities, especially whether he writes articles on websites like Zhihu, Xihongshi, and Zhidian."

Yin Hang was completely baffled. He scratched his head and asked, "Director Peng, what does this mean?"

Peng Shaoxun didn't answer, but instead asked, "Do you know how the organization discovered that Qin Zijun was a reincarnated person?"

Yin Hang shook his head.

"This brings us to the cooperation between the government and the Empress. The Empress has set up a kind of array in major cities across the country. This array is like radar, capable of detecting fluctuations in spiritual energy."

"Given the Empress's cultivation level, the array she set up could not possibly be detected by someone who has just been reincarnated."

"These reincarnated individuals will definitely try to cultivate by breathing in spiritual energy after reincarnation. We detected this behavior at the Third Hospital a few days ago."

"Then we obtained the medical records from the hospital. On that day, Qin Zijun had just woken up from his coma, which confirmed his identity as a reincarnated person."

Peng Shaoxun's words revealed a great deal of admiration for the mysterious empress: "...Qin Zijun could never have known that he had been discovered."

"And any reincarnated person will realize that after arriving in this new world, they will not be accepted by the world and will be considered an unregistered person, which is detrimental to their cultivation."

"You can think of it this way: the Runren people smuggled themselves into the United States. What do they want most? They want to get a green card and become permanent residents instead of undocumented immigrants."

"The same applies to these reincarnated beings."

"The way they want to get a 'green card' is to write down their past life experiences, publish them, and let others know about them, thus making their life stories real."

Yin Hang suddenly realized: "The simplest way in modern society is to publish these experiences as novels, which can both confuse the public and complete the 'illegal residency certification'?"

Peng Shaoxun snapped his fingers: "Smart! That's why I had you monitor Qin Zijun's online activities to understand his life before his reincarnation."

"If he's a normal cultivator, then we can negotiate and communicate, but if he was a demonic cultivator or something similar in his past life..."

After a pause, Peng Shaoxun coldly said, "...Then capture him before he recovers his strength. If he's truly dangerous, kill him on sight!"

"We should rather kill the innocent than let any of those demonic or evil cultivators go free. If they were allowed to cultivate, tens or even hundreds of thousands of civilians could die!"

Yin Hang opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

For the government, stability is of utmost importance, and he rationally believed that the government's decision was correct.

Moreover, based on my interactions with Brother Qin over the past two days, he doesn't seem to be the kind of demonic or evil cultivator.

Yin Hang suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "No, if that's the case, then aren't all the authors of those fantasy novels about cultivating immortality reincarnated beings?"

Peng Shaoxun said irritably:

"Most novels are the fantasies of those online writers. The novels written by real reincarnated people are not very famous, and the government will not allow these works to become famous, so reincarnated people are all struggling writers."

Yin Hang patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief:

"It seems I'll have to be extremely respectful to these struggling writers from now on. Who knows which one might be a reincarnated master, writing about their own past life experiences?"

……

Qin Zijun's home is located in the old city area of ​​Qiantang.

The buildings in this area are quite old, most of them are over forty years old.

The exterior walls of the apartment building where Qin Zijun lives were painted by the government a year ago, but it still couldn't hide the old building's mottled and aging appearance.

In recent years, the management of residential communities in big cities has improved. Even in old buildings like this, there are no more random posters. The walls in the stairwells have been repainted white, making them look very clean and tidy.

Upon reaching the top floor, I took out my key from my pocket and opened the security door, only to be met with a shadowy figure lunging at me.

Meow~

A Devonian calico cat approached Qin Zijun's legs and sniffed carefully, as if it had finally caught a familiar scent.

It rolled over like a cat bug, exposing its belly, and made a purring sound.

Qin Zijun squatted down, gently stroking its little belly, and said with a smile, "Huahua, it's been a long time."

This is Qin Zijun's cat.

For the three-flowered Devon, it was simply that it hadn't seen its owner for three months.

But for Qin Zijun, he had lived through countless lifetimes and had not seen it for countless millennia.

The house is very clean. My cousin hires someone to clean it every week. There is also cat food in the cat's food bowl. For the past three months, my niece Qin Shishi has been helping to feed the cat. She will also hire someone to feed it if needed.

However, if Qin Zijun remains unconscious, her niece will probably take the calico Devon home to raise.

Memories flooded back, and Qin Zijun walked around the old house, which was only fifty square meters, trying to recapture the feeling of her past life.

He played with the cat for a while, then ordered takeout for dinner.

That evening, Qin Zijun turned on her computer, which she hadn't used in a long time, under the desk lamp, and placed her hands on the keyboard.

Unlike other reincarnated individuals, Qin Zijun traveled back in time and was able to return to the city because her "passport" was still intact.

Therefore, he doesn't actually need to write down his life experiences to solidify his identity through cognition.

However, he still decided to write down his life experiences from one of his past lives.

It wasn't for identity verification, but to reclaim the power of that lifetime from the "Book of Immortals Through the Ages".

Qin Zijun's hands moved swiftly, striking the keyboard, and lines of text appeared in the document.

It is the story of a young monk who falls in love with a princess from the Yan Kingdom, surnamed Jiang.
