Daomu Biji (simplified Chinese: 盗墓笔记; traditional Chinese: 盜墓筆記; pinyin: Dàomù bǐjì) variously translated as Grave Robbers' Chronicles,[nb 1] Grave Robbery Note[nb 2] and The Lost Tomb,[nb 3] is a novel series about the grave-robbing adventures of Wu Xie, a young man hailing from a family that had been tomb-raiders for centuries. The series was written by Xu Lei (Chinese: 徐磊), better known by his pen-name Nan Pai San Shu (南派三叔). It was first serialized online at Qidian China (simplified Chinese: 起点中文网; traditional Chinese: 起點中文網; lit. 'Starting Point Chinese Net'), a Chinese website for publishing, writing and reading novels, as a fanwork of Ghost Blows Out the Light originally. Written over a span of five years and published as nine separate novels, it is one of the most popular novel series in China from 2007 with several million fans and over 20 million copies sold.[1] The author has also written two sequels, Zang Hai Hua (Chinese: 藏海花), Sha Hai (Chinese: 沙海), which continued the leading character's story, neither of which were finished at the time of the author's announcement to retire from writing on March 22, 2013.[2] The author returned to writing in 2019 with another unfinished sequel, Reboot: Thunder at the Distant Sea (Chinese: 重启之极海听雷).
Along with Ghost Blows Out the Light, Daomu has contributed greatly to creating a craze and subsequent market in the Greater China area for novels focusing on grave-robbing that also deal with the supernatural.
