Thank you very much to all the book friends who have supported me all the way. This volume is now completely completed, and the Canghua chapter has come to an end.
I deleted, revised, and edited many branches along the way. For example, the little green snake will evolve in this volume, Lillie will find Celebi and Xu Qiansu to start a plot, and Lusamine will have many scenes... I have all these. Deleted, the vast majority of this volume is devoted to Cattleya and Soraya.
So I will briefly chat with you and answer some questions from book friends.
The source of inspiration for this volume is the advice left to the players by the witch who died in the beginning of Old Ring.
"Even if the guidance has long been broken, please be the King of Elden"
The entire volume was written based on this sentence, and there are some elements of Chainsaw Man and Wonderful World in the middle. Some book friends have already guessed it while watching, so I won't point it out one by one here.
Overall, I am quite satisfied with the Canghua chapter, far more satisfied than the Cuixue chapter and the Silver Wind chapter.
Cuixue in the Cuixue chapter was written too hastily and stiffly.
The part where Cattleya helped Xu Qiansu settle the alliance was just for fun, but the impression was not good either.
The haunted house at the beginning of the Silver Wind chapter should be written more delicately and more interestingly.
The middle part of Winter Camping was too boring, and the subsequent catastrophe was written too straightforwardly, making it a bad experience.
The first two volumes have their own highlights, but both have quite a few shortcomings. I wanted to change them, but I didn’t know where to start, so I gave up on them.
Compared with the first two chapters, I think the Canghua chapter is obviously much better.
The foreshadowing is better than Cuixue's chapter, and the ups and downs of the story are more reasonable and gentle. In other words, in terms of romance and rhythm, it is not as good as Cuixue's chapter.
As for the Silver Wind Chapter... Apart from daily life and "Traveler", there seems to be nothing that can be done about the Silver Wind Chapter.
The Canghua Chapter has absorbed the experience and lessons from my first two volumes. It can be regarded as the product of absorbing the strengths of the first two volumes and discarding the shortcomings of the first two volumes. However... it is not as good as the previous one, but more than the lower one.
It's more reasonable than Cuixue and more lyrical than Yinfeng, but it's not as deeply moving as Cuixue, and it doesn't have the joy of the early and middle stages of Yinfeng... It's a bucket, and it doesn't surpass the first two in all aspects, but it doesn't have too many flaws.
When new readers read this book, I always suspect that the bad content I mentioned above will dissuade them, but the Canghua chapter does not have this trouble. For book friends who gave up the book after reading the Canghua chapter, I think it is still Relatively few.
My biggest dissatisfaction with the Canghua chapter is that the pace is too slow, so slow that it seriously affects the viewing experience.
But that's just my dissatisfaction.
In fact, many book friends hate Cattleya's character, thinking that she is very smart, and that she manipulates the overall situation and wants Su Su to die for Zhulan. Isn't she a torturer? In addition, I answered at the time that this plot was not about chasing a husband. As a result, the logic of the book suddenly disappeared, the characters collapsed, and the Canghua chapter was extremely poisonous.
What's more, they directly posted the book on Tieba to ridicule it.
At that time, a reader who read Cuixue and scolded me for being a weak literary youth immediately came to the comment area to ridicule me. Only then did I know that this book had been banned. After I deleted and banned that person, I registered a Tieba account. Check out that post.
I won’t say what he scolded, so as not to affect the good mood of book friends, but I was greatly shocked.
I only visit site B. I have never used software such as DouKuai, WB, Xiaohongshu, Tieba Zhihu, etc. I only know the joke "I approve of Tieba brother's aggressiveness".
But after I read that post and then browsed the forum for two hours, I finally understood this quote.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not angry or disappointed. On the contrary, I feel very interesting and feel that I am still too green and young.
The criticisms I have received before and the points I have been criticized for are nothing compared to the straightforward words of the Tieba guy.
Let me give you an example that I often give to you.
The chicken is huge.
As the leader of the harem, he was completely blackmailed by the old man from Tieba.
"Inquiry into the Red World" is the first volume that I like very much. I was criticized by the post bar guys for being weak, abusive, dark, literary, literary, and full of poisonous points.
Subsequently, the writing style was changed to cater to the market, but the plot was still criticized as childish, without depth and logic. The heroine was carved out of a template. In addition to the hero saving the beauty in the emotional drama, the hero saves the beauty... What's more, he doesn't read the book at all, and directly criticizes the subject matter of multiple female protagonists, thinking that writing about fairy tales should abandon lust and so on. There are countless defenders who describe the chicken fork as feudal dross, saying frankly that he dares to risk the world's disgrace. Violation, writing about the most objectionable subject to modern people...well, the harem.
Hahahahahaha, I laughed at that time, from the bottom of my heart.
Internet articles always have their own highlights and shortcomings, so just use your strengths and avoid weaknesses.
I don’t know how to write cool articles that are cool and cool, so I won’t write them. I write about daily life, love, and Pokémon that I’m good at... So you directly scold me that this is not a cool book, and it doesn’t have any cool clothes. It's true, I admit it, but it's just a matter of subject matter, and I don't think it's worthy of being criticized.
Some authors are good at using fantasy writing style to write about pretense and slap-in-the-face, grassroots counterattacks when writing about elves. They are not very good at writing about daily life and love, so they can just write about nurturing battles.
Everyone has a group of book friends, and everyone reads the content they like to read.
A direct and mindless attack on the shortcomings of a certain book. Note that it is a mindless attack, and even an attack on the subject matter itself... It is actually a bit naive, just like grasping that the background of Dream of Red Mansions is a feudal society, and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms only has Machiavellian wars, without light joy. Usually these points are as dark as possible.
However, it seems that 99% of the articles on the Internet are not worth mentioning in the mouth of the Tieba guy, and they all have points that can be attacked, so I was linked to it, and I became indirectly famous, hahaha.
Everyone was scolded, including me.
But to be honest...it's quite interesting to fish and swim in Tieba and watch the Tieba guys with all kinds of bad mouths.
Ahem, let’s go off topic and let’s talk about this book again.
In fact, many readers can't accept the adventure of washing the green part, and think that I have changed the taste of this book again and written it to death.
First of all, Miss Mary's appearance is too little.
Secondly, it doesn’t look good in daily life, and many places are blurry and incomprehensible.
Third, instead of writing about Pokémon, write about Cattleya.
Regarding Miss Mali, as the soul character of the first two volumes, she is quite popular, her role has been reduced, and she is suspected of stock trading, so many book friends skip this volume directly. I think this is right, it is indeed There is a problem with the plot arrangement. (However, there are also many book friends who have enjoyed it...well, Miss Niu Mali)
Because if Miss Ma Li and Xu Qiansu came to Xicui together, there would be nothing to do with Cattleya... There would be nothing to do with Cattleya emotionally, and there would really be no problem with Cattleya.
So this is a last resort for the sake of having more female protagonists. Considering the character, if Miss Ma Li is not sent away, Xu Qiansu will never be able to open up to anyone... My writing power is limited, so I can only write like this.
Regarding daily life, it mainly focuses on the daily exchanges between Xu Qiansu and Cattleya. They are all dialogues, with occasional benefits, but more often than not, there are many inexplicable expressions and movements. Many people see it inexplicably, confused, and very strange. .
This is something I did intentionally. I did not deliberately write it to be incomprehensible, but deliberately wrote the emotional drama in an implicit and euphemistic way, "starting with emotion and ending with etiquette", which is in line with the character.
Xu Qiansu, Ma Li, and Cattleya are all smart, quick-thinking, and keenly observant... which is similar to Miss Kaguya's "The Love Psychological War Between Genius Boys and Girls," except that I didn't write a happy romantic comedy, but It is reflected in everything they say and do.
As far as the relationship between Xu Qiansu and Cattleya is concerned, many of Xu Qiansu's words have profound meanings and are subtle and euphemistic.
Let me give you an example that I have written very straightforwardly in the article to facilitate your understanding.
Maple transformed into Cresselia, causing Cattleya to fall into a sweet dream. Xu Qiansu cared about Cattleya, but said, "As Pokémon, Gardevoir and the others always make me feel more at ease in terms of safety."
The logic of this sentence is that you and the Pokémon are all in a dream - the Pokémon are not as weak as you - he does not need to worry too much about the Pokémon - but you are very weak, and I am afraid that you will act like The spiritual body cannot afford a single dream.
Cattleya was well aware of Xu Qiansu's implicit statement, so she felt relieved and thought to herself that even if he cared about her, he would not speak so straightforwardly, he would only use such implicit statements.
Yes, implicit. These two words have been used throughout Xu Qiansu and Cattleya's love story. They have been used in almost every sentence Xu Qiansu said to Cattleya. Occasionally, he said a few straightforward words that were close to Cattleya. , it was Cattleya who used words and tricks to force Xu Qiansu to say it... This is the reason why Cattleya often smiles like a 'winner'.
Let’s take another example.
Beili Town was assassinated. After Xu Qiansu came into contact with Ye Zi, she asked, "...you don't read my mind anymore?"
This sentence was a hint to Cattleya that he already knew that Cattleya had killed these two people. He hoped that Cattleya would tell him what she had to say without having to hide it.
"I want to read it. Moreover, sincerity is often mutual. If you are willing to treat me sincerely, I will naturally not read your mind every time." Cattleya blinked and then explained... This is the original text .
Cattleya guessed from Xu Qiansu's reaction that he had found something fishy, but she was not sure, but she also did not dare to read minds, which was similar to self-escape... because she was not willing to let Xu Qiansu die for Zhulan at the moment. While constantly struggling, she hoped in her heart that Xu Qiansu could discover the problem by herself and survive. By then, Cattleya would have nothing to say and would accept her fate calmly.
The reason why she mentioned sincerity was because when she and Xu Qiansu were at the beach villa, they talked about sincerity and said that they should treat each other sincerely. But at this moment, Xu Qiansu guessed Cattleya's secret, but did not tell Cattleya. No matter how sincere she was, Cattleya was never sincere from the beginning to the end...so full of irony and self-deprecation.
This kind of meaningful dialogue has always happened since the two of them came to Xicui.
If you finish reading this volume and read it again, you should have a different feeling... I won't give more examples here, because the straightforward explanation will lose its flavor.
Someone is about to ask here. Cattleya is obviously struggling in her heart and is so complicated, but she can't see it at all! It’s not reflected at all!
Apart from bad women, the only attribute that can be seen is the corrupt dog.
Have you not thought that much at all? You are just saying this now to add depth and let us readers figure it out for ourselves! ?
no.
Generally speaking, in order to highlight the growth of the protagonist, animations will indeed go through a series of processes such as failure, confusion, and pain, and then make up their mind to accomplish something and grow.
But Cattleya is not like that. She is an adult, quick-thinking, and smart. Even if her thoughts are complicated, she will take action when it is time to do so, and she will never be lenient.
No matter what she feels like in her heart, she is decisive and unequivocal in her actions.
Before she was confused, she acted decisively.
In confusion, she still acted decisively.
No longer confused... then forget about it and act more decisively.
Compared with other main characters, Cattleya did not grow up due to confusion and pain (changing goals/cleansing, etc.)... That kind of character is too childish for Cattleya. .
So she did not hesitate to give herself a psychological hint and let Xu Qiansu die for Zhulan.
He also committed himself to Xu Qiansu without hesitation in the reverse world and helped him return to Xicui again.
So when she was rejected by Xu Qiansu in front of the oden vendor, she just said, "I've known it for a long time." Other than that, she didn't have any reaction... These were naturally done intentionally by me.
However, in order to make readers understand, I still added a lot of narration to bring out the complexity of Cattleya's mind... However, a large number of readers still said they did not understand.
This is purely because this kind of implicit writing method is not suitable for online articles at all. Most readers just want to read it without thinking. Who wants to spend time thinking about the deep meanings of the characters' actions and words in the book? Why do you have to be so tired just watching?
How can the characters' emotional drama be written in a way that is simple and easy to understand, and how can it be made refreshing and heart-warming.
Therefore, like Xu Qiansu and Cattleya, this kind of implicit, euphemistic and profound love story in the style of Dream of Red Mansions cannot be understood by most readers, and it is normal for them to even find it boring... But if you don’t understand, I understand, you are scolding Xu Qiansu, Ma Li and Cattleya are straight men and women, and they scolded me for not being able to write emotional scenes, so what?
From now on, I will try to reduce the number of love plots like this that are implicit and euphemistic, making people tired and confused.
Try to write about love in a simple and easy-to-understand way. After all, I also need to eat. Using love to generate electricity is really unrealistic.
But I still want a subtle sense of atmosphere.
Such a simple and straightforward confession of "I like Miss Mary" is the only one in the whole book... used to reject Cattleya.
Then why did Xu Qiansu reject Cattleya? Can't you just take it all in?
No, because this is a love story, not a stud story. Xu Qiansu will not accept one by one, nor will he accept girls like he collects achievements or items... Men and women mainly have heart-to-heart communication and have a good relationship.
Xu Qiansu is a principled person. He may be lustful, but he will not do anything that breaks the bottom line. If he likes Ma Li, he will not date any woman, but he will go through the process of becoming a scumbag... Cattleya is the key, the key to his change.
Xu Qiansu lost his memory, so he just had a crush on Cattleya, but Cattleya was still not as good as Miss Ma Li in his heart... so he refused and didn't play ambiguous.
So why wait until we return to modern times before rejecting it? Xu Qiansu threw Cattleya away after using it, right?
no.
The rejection at this moment is for the sake of symmetry and blank space.
When they were in Beili Town, the two of them had oden. At that time, Cattleya asked Xu Qiansu if he liked Ma Li. Xu Qiansu didn't answer, but just agreed that when they return to modern times, they must eat oden again.
When he returned to modern times and everything ended, Xu Qiansu answered Cattleya's question at almost the same place.
It's more interesting to write it this way, and it's not because Xu Qiansu took advantage of Cattleya.
Those who say that the male protagonist is flirting with every woman, I say, you are fooled by me for being ambiguous. Don’t think that a male protagonist who can talk about love is a scumbag, and the male protagonist can only be dull. Fighting mania/hot-blooded youth/dark flow, etc., right?
If I write a love story, can’t the male protagonist be able to talk about love?
Xu Qiansu was so cold to Lillie before, why didn't you mention it at all?
…
Some book friends thought that when I wrote about amnesia, I wanted to write a bloody plot, but in fact it was not at all... One of the purposes of this paragraph is to deepen Xu Qiansu's character.
He was very smart. Through the book left by Soraya, the two minutes of lost memory, etc., he guessed that Cattleya must have paid a considerable price to him and must have sacrificed a lot of things.
So although he didn't love Cattleya, he decided to love her.
That’s why I said, this plot is not about chasing your husband at the crematorium.
Xu Qiansu and Cattleya, from the moment Xu Qiansu made up his mind to love her...these two people have become one.
In the character column, I wrote that Xu Qiansu and Cattleya are lovers.
Regarding the arrangements for future love scenes, I won’t reveal much at this moment.
When I wrote the chapter "Silver Moon and the Incarnation of Sweet Dreams", I knew from the beginning that Cresselia was Maple. I thought this part of the plot was romantic and sad. It was so sad that when I was writing it, I felt so sad. I couldn't hold back every time, and I would slow down for a while while writing... At that time, I made up my mind that no matter what, I must give Xu Qiansu, Ma Li, Cattleya and other male and female protagonists a happy ending.
They must be happy!
In addition, there is the tragic fate Kyurem has set for Cattleya. Many book friends still can’t figure out what it is. After all, I don’t mention it directly, and I explain it in Cattleya’s tone.
Now let me put it bluntly.
In fact, fate has already arrived from the beginning.
Cattleya actually never lived a happy day.
Having been trapped by superpowers since he was a child, the most common thing he did was sit alone in a room and stare at the high green wall.
Her rare source of happiness is bamboo orchid.
After controlling her super powers, Zhulan's life and death were weighing on her mind again.
After finding a way to keep Zhulan alive, she truly fell in love with Xu Qiansu.
She not only wanted Zhulan to live, but also didn't want Xu Qiansu to die, so she tried her best and sacrificed her life.
But when Xu Qiansu successfully returned to modern times and Zhulan survived, she had completely fallen in love with Xu Qiansu and even gave her body to him (although it was a true fusion of soul and body), but Xu Qiansu rejected her directly... This, even It was Cattleya's own choice.
In the reverse space, if she doesn't seal Xu Qiansu's memory, Xu Qiansu will die.
Seal Xu Qiansu's memory so Xu Qiansu won't fall in love with her.
She is always making such choices...
Kyurem's prophecy at the time was that "the future is destined to lose happiness and Cattleya's most important thing." 】
Cattleya thinks there is a cause and effect relationship. Losing the most important thing to Cattleya will lead to loss of happiness... This is wrong. This is Cattleya's own guess. She thought Zhulan would die and Xu Qiansu would die. But it's not.
She will lose her happiness, which means that after learning the prophecy, she will not be happy for a day.
She would lose something important because she fell in love with Xu Qiansu completely and sacrificed so much for Xu Qiansu. Even after 70% of her mental strength, she had to seal his memory herself... resulting in the loss of Xu Qiansu in love.
There are also connections between superpowers and Zhulan and Xu Qiansu, which have gains and losses, that's it.
I don’t want to say more. I’m tired. If I write too straightforwardly, it will lose its flavor.
It doesn’t matter if everyone doesn’t understand it, because Kyurem’s prophecy has been cracked.
By Xu Qiansu and Zoroa.
Kyurem set a time limit at that time, which was March 7.
On the night of March 7th, everything ended. Xu Qiansu rejected Cattleya, but when the time reached zero, on March 8th, Xu Qiansu decided to love her... because of Soraya's book.
Destiny is elusive and no one can crack it, but in my article, there is and is only one way to break through destiny... and that is Pokémon.
When Cattleya was in the reverse space, she could throw Zoroa back directly and bring Xu Qiansu back by force. There was no need to help Xu Qiansu.
But she chose to help Xu Qiansu and Soraya spend the last month at the cost of losing 70% of her mental power.
Even though she was doing it for Xu Qiansu, even though she didn't care about Soraya at all, she gave Soraya a chance to say goodbye to Susu. So by chance, the book left by Soraya made Xu Qiansu decide to love her.
As long as you give to Pokémon, Pokémon will definitely reward you in various places!
This points throughout this book.
In this volume, I reduced the number of Pokémon stories and devoted all my words to Cattleya, just to emphasize this point at the end of the volume.
So those who say that I have changed my mind and don’t write about Pokémon, you are actually wrong.
Even though Soraya and Xu Qiansu had very little experience and were completely inferior to Gardevoir, she was still willing to endure thousands of years of loneliness and pain for Xu Qiansu.
This Pokémon born out of resentment is filled with love for Xu Qiansu. This love, like resentment, gives Zoroa a life that can survive for thousands of years.
Why is Xu Qiansu’s Zoroa so special?
I have already written in the original article that Soraya was born into this world with love, and her mother, Xu Qiansu, and Feng both loved her.
I haven't written much about her mother, but Soraya was lying outside Qunqing Town, waiting for Xu Qiansu, and even when she couldn't help but fall asleep, the injuries on her body were inexplicably cured...
Zoroa was thrown out when he was young and lived independently. It was customary to wait until he was killed by someone and become resentful before he could become a complete body and gain strength.
A Pokémon born out of resentment, her mother never forced Zoroa to hate anyone, and never interfered with Zoroa's choices.
This kind of detail has highlighted my mother's love for Soraya.
There are many more profound things that I won’t go into.
I'm tired and don't want to explain any more.
All in all, what makes Xu Qiansu’s Pokémon different is not the appearance, the power, or the golden finger, but the story.
Thank you to the leader of Ale Wants Fan and Yiye Zhiqiu for the 10,000 rewards. I will update it later and will talk about it in the main text later.
I have written 6,000 words in my speech. I feel that there is still a lot to say, but I am tired. I will continue to talk when I have the opportunity in the future.
Thanks for the support. Thank you very much!
(End of chapter)
