And for some reason, when I'm reviewing texts, I can never concentrate; it seems like I'm always thinking about scenes from "Ghost Blows Out the Light."

Was that mouse really that intelligent?

What happened to that person named Hu Guohua?

The more I thought about it, the more something felt off. The book itself seemed so ordinary, so why did I keep thinking about the plot?

Thinking about this...

She instinctively flipped back over.

Huh, some more have been uploaded.

Did this person write it all at once and then upload it all at once?

She continued flipping through the book, preparing to read on.

She looked around for quite a while, and time flew by. She couldn't help but glance around the editorial office.

For some reason, she always felt like there was something watching her from the surroundings.

The eerie feeling made her nervous.

Fortunately, it was daytime, and she continued reading with these thoughts in mind.

The dragon, who was walking in the mortal realm, added nearly 60,000 words in total. She was happy reading them and felt like she couldn't stop.

On the other side, Xu Fan was looking at the author messages on his computer, but hadn't sent any private messages.

I couldn't help feeling irritated.

Six thousand isn't enough, and sixty thousand still isn't enough?

Then he decided to send another 60,000 yuan. This was the most direct solution he could think of. At worst, he wouldn't sign the contract. What was the big deal?

Copy and paste, copy and paste.

After securing the 120,000 yuan, he looked out the window and decided that he shouldn't keep staring at the computer screen; it would be better to go outside for a walk.

So he went out to take a walk around the neighborhood.

Xiao Gu, the editor at Qidian.com, was intently reading the novel.

The more she read, the more engrossed she became; the feeling of being deeply absorbed made her both afraid and unwilling to put the book down. Her desire to read only grew stronger.

"Xiao Gu, do you want to go out for dinner together?"

When someone shouted that, Xiao Gu jumped in fright. She looked up and saw that it was her colleague. She shook her head and said, "You guys go ahead. I'll finish reviewing this book first."

The colleague didn't pay any attention and turned to leave.

Xiao Gu suddenly felt a chill all over her body, especially after being startled by her colleague earlier.

So she got up and found a coat in her suitcase and put it on.

She tightened her clothes and continued reading.

That's all. I feel a little regretful, like I haven't had enough.

However, when she refreshed the page, she found that there were 60,000 more words added to the contract.

Let me finish reading first.

With that thought in mind, she continued reading.

then

Can't stop.

Xu Fan returned from his walk in the neighborhood after 8 p.m.

Although his contract was rejected earlier, he believed that as long as the word count was high enough, signing the contract would definitely be no problem.

With this confidence, he turned on his computer.

There has been no news from the author, indicating that no contract has been signed with the website.

Perhaps the editor had already left work, he thought, then he would just have to wait until tomorrow.

He was originally going to rest, but after thinking about it, he decided to send out tens of thousands more words so that the editor could take a closer look.

With that in mind, he opened the document and copied and pasted it.

After silently thanking the powerful writer, he wrote another 60,000 words before finally lying down to rest.

"Xiao Gu, are you sure you're not leaving get off work? We'll be going now!"

"Okay, you guys go first, I'll take another look and leave later."

Xiao Gu's colleagues have all left.

She took off her shoes, squatted on her chair, tightened her coat, and kept her eyes fixed on the computer.

The opening of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" wasn't particularly amazing, but the first-person perspective was indeed able to evoke strong emotions in the reader.

Xiao Gu stared at the computer screen, and before she knew it, she had read all 60,000 words that Xu Fan had posted.

She prepared to pack up and shut down her computer. It was too late to post the contract signing segment, so she decided to wait until tomorrow.

But out of professional habit, she couldn't resist refreshing the backend again.

Another update?

She was filled with doubt, her gaze sweeping around, her mind wavering between whether to go or not.

After a moment, she sat down again and continued reading.

The 120,000-word novel "Ghost Blows Out the Light" basically explains the plot of the story.

The early content mainly consisted of folk tales, rural stories, and folk legends, such as the legends of zombies and black donkey hooves from deep in the mountains and forests.

From the moment the archaeological team entered the desert in search of the ancient city of Jingjue, distinct geographical elements were involved.

From the very beginning, it was combined with the local culture, and then elements such as the Western Regions desert, the Peacock River, the Twin Sacred Mountains, the Thirty-Six Kingdoms, the Loulan female corpse, and the Dunhuang murals were added.

Suddenly, a mysterious aura wafted over.

Most importantly, the exquisite writing and smooth storyline completely captivated Xiao Gu, making it impossible for her to tear herself away.

However, as the amount of text she read increased, she couldn't help but feel nervous.

The office was extremely quiet; it was already around 10 p.m.

For some reason, it suddenly started raining and the wind picked up outside.

She was completely absorbed in her novel when she was startled by the sudden sound of wind. She then looked out the window at the rain while reading her novel.

She felt a little scared.

Boom!

Thunder rumbled.

Xiao Gu shuddered.

She usually thinks she's very brave and has read quite a few thriller/tomb raiding novels.

But "Ghost Blows Out the Light" really scared me.

The wind was still blowing outside. She glanced at the computer silently; she didn't want to look at it anymore.

However, she dared not go out.

Picking up her phone, she dialed her best friend's number: "Xiao Mo, could you come to the company? I'm scared."

Twenty minutes later, Xiao Mo arrived, looking travel-worn, and began mocking her best friend without any restraint.

But after the mockery, Xiao Mo stared intently at the computer screen.

Xiao Gu sniffed, and could only sit down and keep Xiao Gu company.

Time stretched on, the rain continued, and night fell.

"Xiao Mo, shall we go?"

Xiao Gu asked in a low voice.

Xiao Mo stared at the computer and said, "Can you wait a little longer? I'll leave after I finish reading this chapter."

"But"

Come on, let's watch together.

Half an hour later, Xiao Mo tugged at Xiao Gu's sleeve and said weakly, "Xiao Gu, why don't we call Xiao Zhang? I'm too scared to go back."

Xiaogu: ""

Half an hour later, three or four people in the editing room were reading novels.

Get the perfect music system at the start

===Chapter 262 Released Online===

Xu Fan got up very early the next day.

I went for a morning run, then came back to make and eat breakfast, and after tidying up, it was already past nine o'clock.

Xu Fan thought the editor should be at work by now.

But when he turned on his computer, he couldn't help but frown. There was no private message, meaning the contract was still pending.

He snorted and muttered to himself, "Fine, if they won't let me pass, there are plenty of other places that will. If they don't want me here, there are plenty of other places that will."

Xu Fan opened another website without hesitation.

But just then, the red exclamation mark in the upper right corner suddenly moved.

Writer's news.

Xu Fan was delighted and clicked to take a look.

Xu Fan smiled.
