The Yellow Family's Night Drum

In the alkaline marshes of the black-soil wasteland lies a dying ancient art: the Night Drum. Huang Tianci was born with a spiritual sense unlike ordinary people, and from childhood he endured the cold stares of others. His parents died young, and the only elder in his family passed away on a stormy night, placing the ancestral Wenwang Drum in his hands. Desolate graves, abandoned villages, old ruined towns—when the divine drum sounds, the night road opens. Drum in hand, he walks the countryside, using the drum to quell chaos, his melodies drawing in the spirit clans of the wilds, unraveling one rural mystery after another and peeling back grudges and feuds sealed away for a thousand years. The youth must break through the shackles of a fate passed down through generations, and with an ordinary man's heart guard the peace of his homeland, becoming the master of the Night Drum lineage. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The Yellow Family's Night Drum — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
