I Keep Reincarnating, Why Is He Still Alive? Novel

In "I Keep Reincarnating, Why Is He Still Alive?" by Eat Just a Tiny Bit Less, a disciple lives a carefree life of lighthearted humor and no tragic moments alongside his exceptionally long-lived master. While his master busies himself with cultivation, chanting spells, and resting, the disciple remains perpetually unconcerned, preferring to sing, bang pots, and chat rather than engage. This stark contrast in lifespans leads to a recurring cycle: the disciple lives a short life, is eventually laid to rest on the hillside, and then reincarnates. Despite his master's enduring existence and attempts to share his life through feasts and tales, the disciple consistently avoids deep involvement, opting not to drink, think, or stay at the table, and is rarely present when his master calls. The story highlights the poignant separation of master and disciple as spring returns, signifying their divergent paths, one in the earthly realm and the other departed.
