"Katis, what do you think of the way we wrote the story about the snow-capped mountains?"
In the camp on the top of the mountain, Walnut, who had regained his composure, discussed with Katis how to publish his diary.
There are many books in the category of travel diaries, written by many adventurers.
But there are very few that are interesting, and even fewer that are popular.
Most of them just read and print a few copies as props for the adventurer himself to brag about.
After all, this kind of book cannot be sold in a bookstore.
Witnessing the rise and fall of the ancient country with his own eyes, Hu Tao also wanted to do a good job in this matter and prevent history from being lost in the wind and snow.
“The travel diary method is too single, and there are many similar books on the market. Even if ours is printed, it will be difficult for us to stand out.
"How about adapting your story directly, with you as the protagonist of the story. You know the existence of the ancient country for some reason, so you explore and discover the ancient country and restore the complete history of the ancient country."
Unlike documentary works, the former is easier to spread, more readable, and usually circulates for a long time.
The latter is more about pursuing authenticity and is mostly used as a reference book, which greatly limits dissemination.
"In order to make it more interesting and interesting, your identity can be set as the reincarnation of the princess's lover [the warrior]. Because you have been unable to bring hope back to the ancient country in your previous life and regretted it for the rest of your life, you have been obsessed with the snow-capped mountains in every life. Obsessed with the ancient country...
"...During this period, you met the reincarnation of the suspected princess's lover, and a series of love-hate entanglements occurred. In the end, you made up your mind to entrust your posthumous affairs to our Rebirth Hall, and entered the dangers of the snow-capped mountains with the princess. The situation restored the history of the ancient country, but fell into a long sleep with the princess..."
When Hu Tao mentioned the outline, he also did not forget to advertise for the Hall of Rebirth.
Listening to Hu Tao's simple summary of the story, Katis fell into a long silence.
Suddenly he seemed to have really become the reincarnation of the warrior, and vaguely saw the shadow of the princess.
The princess smiled at him, put a flower crown on him, and handed him a sword made of star silver...
However, he failed to find hope of resurrecting the ancient tree. When he returned to the snow mountain, everything was gone...
After a long time, he came out of that dreamlike feeling and sighed.
It's just that his figure is a little thinner, so transparent that it's almost invisible.
"Just do as you say..."
Jiang Bai quietly pushed Hu Tao with his elbow, "Hall Master, is there really such a thing as reincarnation?"
"You don't care if he does! Well, it just pays attention to the ups and downs of the plot, the gripping story, plus some love and hatred, if these are enough, it will be a hit.
"As for whether people are reincarnated or not, that doesn't matter."
Hu Tao said with some distress, "Although this hall master is good at writing poems, he is really not good at writing. We need to find someone to write the poems..."
"If you are looking for a friend who is good at writing, I know one."
Abedo came over with Keli in his arms and happened to hear what Hu Tao said.
"Oh? Do you know him?" Hu Tao's eyes lit up.
"Hmm. I wonder if you have read "The Record of Shen Qiu's Picking Up Swords"? That book was written by my friend, and I drew the illustrations on it."
""The Record of Shen Qiu's Collected Swords"? Is this book sold in bookstores? I have no impression at all."
Hu Tao shook her head. She had never heard of this book.
"Well, the response was mediocre as expected..." Abedo was not surprised at all.
It was obvious that he had expected this result.
"The author of this book is also from Liyue. This book "The Record of Shen Qiu's Picking Up Swords" was completed some time ago and is on sale at Wanwen Jishe in Liyue. He wrote to me and said that not many people bought it. It seems that it is true it is true."
】
"Who is the author?" Hu Tao asked.
"His name is Xingqiu, and his pen name is Zhenyu."
"Xingqiu!" Hutao opened her mouth in surprise.
When did Xingqiu write the book? !
Doesn't he usually read business collections and wise men's philosophies? Could it be that it’s just covered with a cover and it’s all inside? !
hateful! You wrote this kind of thing without telling her!
"It seems you know each other?" Abedo raised his eyebrows.
"Of course I know him. The second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce can barely compete with me in terms of poetry."
Hu Tao looked at Jiang Bai and added something in Jiang Bai's blank gaze.
"It's the one I told you before that can revitalize Guhua's swordsmanship."
"Oh~"
With that said, Jiang Bai remembered.
Hu Tao originally said that she would bring him to meet this friend, but both of them forgot about it.
Hutao and Xingqiu became friends through poetry.
If they have free time, they would meet up to recite poems together, and they would become familiar friends over time.
But if you really want to say how much Hu Tao knows about Xingqiu, there is no such thing.
"It seems like it's time to meet him when we return to Liyue Port." Hutao clapped his hands, looking quite excited.
"This dark alley sect limerick poet will definitely be able to write this story with its ups and downs by joining forces with him!"
"Do you need me to draw an illustration?" Abedo suggested.
"Of course!" Hutao responded directly.
She had never seen Albedo's paintings, and she didn't know what his painting skills were.
But Xingqiu has a very discerning eye. If Xingqiu takes a fancy to him and chooses him as his illustration, Abedo's painting skills must be extraordinary.
"I just happened to take a picture of Hantian Nail, so I gave it as the cover."
"As for what the book should be called..."
Hutao fell into thought.
"Let's call it "Once Upon a Time in Snow Country"." Katis said softly.
"Then call it this!"
The incident simply set the tone, and Hu Tao and Jiang Bai planned to withdraw.
Their business here is complete, it's time to move on to other things.
"We'll leave first after we finish the things here. When Kaia comes back, we can say goodbye to him."
"Yeah." Abedo nodded.
Regarding the Cold Sky Nail, he wanted to study it for a while longer and did not leave so quickly.
Moreover, Mondstadt City must have noticed such a big movement on the top of the mountain. Maybe they will send someone over soon to check the situation. They have to stay here to explain the whole story clearly.
"Bye! Keli will miss you!" Keli waved her little hands to say goodbye to the two of them.
"Bye-Bye!"
After a brief farewell, Jiang Bai and Hu Tao descended from the cave they came up to below.
"Hall Master, look for the treasure! Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Jiang Bai rubbed his hands excitedly.
Now there are only him and Hutao, and no one can share the treasure with them!
Hutao rolled his eyes, but still summoned Katis.
Hearing Jiang Bai's request, Katis paused for a moment.
Even though it hadn't been long ago, this incident seemed to be far away.
Many of the memories about the treasures in the snow-capped mountains have been blurred.
After a while, these memories may not exist anymore...
"I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for long in my current state. I'll take you to get a sword."
