"No, a story should have a beginning and an end."
"A story that is too complete and complete lacks a sense of absurdity and becomes detached from reality."
"What's so absurd about reality?"
"Just like you would never have thought that in a minute you would be..." Jiang Li picked up Yue Ji and gently lifted her skirt with his hand. Yue Ji's eyes suddenly became a little flustered. She stretched out her hands to hug his neck, her face flushed.
"It's still daytime, and we just had breakfast. How can you... Wait, someone is about to come out of the room. Don't stay in the yard, you bastard!!!"
"Well, that's one of the manifestations of absurdity."
"Scoundrel!" Yue Ji lowered her head and bit his shoulder lightly, her calves tightly hooked around his waist. After a moment, she suddenly heard Jiang Li say, "But... there will still be a wedding."
Yue Ji was stunned.
"After half a year of planning, I finally finished writing these marriage plans. Sister Yueji is the first one."
Jiang Li suddenly leaned in and kissed her lips, but Yue Ji was biting her lips at the moment, her fair forehead was covered with sweat, and her voice was filled with tears, "How can you bring up such a thing at this time..."
“That’s one of the ways that absurdity manifests itself.”
"Go to hell, Jiang Xiaoli!"
Tsukhime leaned in and nibbled on his lips.
(End of the book)
Chapter 470: Closing Remarks
As the longest book I have ever written, Taoist Companion has finally come to an end at this moment.
I had not originally planned to write so much. At first, I had planned to write 140 chapters for the fourth volume, with the word count controlled at around 1.3 million. However, I did not expect that there were too many threads in the upper realm chapter, and 140 chapters could not be completed. Even the 165 chapters lacked a lot of space for Feng Xiyu.
But there is not much description about Feng Xiyu, which is acceptable. Whether she loves Jiang Li or not is Jiang Li's story later. No matter who it is, there is no regret at all, which is not bad.
I am quite satisfied with the overall plot of the upper realm. I like Ren Shutong and Su Yeli very much. I feel they are quite interesting. All the plots that should be written have been written. As for Ling Wei... Actually, there is not much space for Ling Wei's story herself. All the clues of her story have been revealed in the previous one million words. The remaining characters are Yue Xianzi and Jun Wenning. I quite like them, but they are indeed much less written about than Su Yeli and Ren Shutong.
After all, there are still too many female characters.
Before I started writing the book, I really didn't want to write so much. My original purpose was just to write a cheerful and light-hearted ancient-style novel. Just as some of the comments at the time said, it's just the same old story in a new bottle. I don't particularly care about these things. For me, I just wrote what I am best at, a story that can make people feel relaxed and cheerful, that's all. If you are aesthetically fatigued, just don't click on this story.
I am quite satisfied with the overall plot of Taoist Couple, but it was a bit weak in the later period. In fact, there was an inexplicable sense of separation. When reading the first 800,000 words of this book, I was still thinking about the "truth of love", always trying to find an answer that would satisfy me from the collision of stories, but after 800,000 words, I started to let it go.
The answer is not that important. Whether love is eternal and pure is not that important. Whether you can love others or whether you should be loved is not important. Only those who are entangled in these issues will never move forward.
In the middle and late stages of Taoist Companion, I was still heavily dependent on writing Anchor Boy at the same time. The male protagonist of that book is completely opposite to Jiang Xiaoli, so it was quite painful to write these two books together. Later, Anchor Boy ended, and naturally I knew how to write Taoist Companion.
Relieved.
Every book I wrote in the past tried to find the truth about love, a fixed answer, an eternal and unchanging truth, like a child constantly calling out in the darkness, asking someone to love me.
After the completion of the book "Dao Lu", it's time to stop here.
..............................
Let’s talk about books.
The story ends just right. As for Feng Xiyu's story, I don't think many people would be interested in it. As for Dark Moon, I will sort out and write a sequel to Dark Moon later. It will be free. Don't worry, I will definitely write it this time, but it will take some time until the new book is stable.
Apart from this, I shouldn’t have missed any other plots. When the new book is stable, I will probably write about the weddings of some characters, or their daily lives. It’s quite interesting to write about these daily lives.
Actually, I don’t particularly like the theme of ancient style. I even think that I am not good at it at all. It is completely accidental that I have written so many books of ancient style. A few years ago, I accidentally wrote a book called "Saving My Fallen Master", and then it suddenly became popular... After it became popular, I continued to write about campus life, writing about why you are always thinking about dating me. I thought that book was so interesting. After finishing that book, I started to think about what to write. During this period, I wrote a book called "How to Cultivate a Domineering Girlfriend", which tells the story of urban humans and monsters. The result was not very good, but fortunately the framework itself is not big, and it can be completed in 300,000 words. The name Bai Sheng comes from that book.
Later I wrote about the Sword Immortal Junior Brother, and it became very popular. Xu Xiaoluo was laughing the whole time.
Then I wrote Almost Became a Hero, which is a story about a chuunibyou. I have always been a bit of a chuunibyou, so I did very well in the hero genre. When I reached 600,000 words, I felt secretly happy that I had finished it, so I ended it.
Then I wrote about the Sword Immortal Senior Brother, who became very popular. In this book, Yu Yu Dian, Gu Xiaoyuan is a Yu Yu boy, and he wrote about Luo Yesheng, whom I particularly like. Among the senior brothers, my favorite is Luo Yesheng, and among the junior brothers, I personally like Hua Yaowu the most.
Then there’s Devil Lady, Devil Lady… It’s considered the most Yuyu book, I guess, but I love Luo Liyue a lot.
It’s not that it was painful to write, but when I was writing Devil Miss, I always felt that I was so miserable, and every day was so miserable. However, I felt that the first volume of Devil Miss was particularly perfect, and the structure and metaphors were very interesting, but unfortunately... when the first volume was finished, I almost read all the comments, and found that there were many places where people didn’t agree with me, and they had to explain it to understand.
How should I put it? This is my own problem, but for me, it would be really interesting if someone could understand something I wrote that was a bit riddle-like. After all, I still have a bit of a middle school syndrome.
In fact, the performance of Miss Devil is not bad. When it was 500,000 words, the performance was better than that of Taoist Companion which has now reached 1.5 million words. But Miss Devil feels that it is about the same. Yu Yu has enough, so it’s over.
Then there's Dao Lu. Dao Lu's collection data looks quite high, but actually the average subscription is quite low, about eight to one. Miss Devil is five to one, and Almost a Hero is three to one. But Dao Lu had dug a lot of holes before and had to fill them one by one. In fact, I really think... Dao Lu is well written.
The main theme of this book is to be light-hearted and joyful. The core concept of this book is that there is nothing that cannot be solved by women. If there is, just find a few more women. The plot is cheerful and the structure is quite compact, with one thing linked closely to another. It's a pity that... the performance is just average. It can only be said that the beginning is not handled very well.
A story of 1.5 million words suddenly ended, and I felt a little inexplicably melancholy.
A little sad.
..........................................
Let’s talk about the new book.
The new book is probably still under review, and you should be able to read it tomorrow. The tentative title is, [Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes]
As for what to write in the new book?
Urban superpowers, with a similar world view and similar stories to Almost a Hero and Miss Devil, Please Spare Me. My favorite subject right now is the city. It used to be campus, but now I’m older and can’t write with that kind of youthful and ignorant feeling, so I prefer the city more.
As for what the plot of the new book is about...
Although it is a bit embarrassing to say this, the plot of the new book should focus on the middle-school syndrome.
Let me show you the introduction.
................................................
Natural disasters befell the world, monsters from the abyss filled the land, and blood and fire burned wantonly.
When I was fifteen, I awakened the most powerful ability among humans, so I put on a mask and became a hero.
I am the last hope of mankind, carrying their dreams and risking everything on them. I cannot lose.
Three years later, I shut down the natural disaster, sealed the abyss, withstood the pressure, and became S6... No, I became the strongest hero remembered by everyone.
The era of peace has arrived.
The hero's story should come to an end, so I left the public eye and went to look for my ordinary life.
........................
Later, I realized my wish and really became an ordinary person.
I no longer have to wear a mask and pretend to be profound, and I no longer have to fight against those monsters that gave me countless nightmares, but...
The tsundere girl who retired with me always wanted to support me and corrupt me with her money and white silk. Wait, it was ice cream, she added ice cream.
The killer queen I saved always wants to monopolize me. Wait, if it's patterned black stockings, stepping on it is not...
...No more, believe me, there is definitely no more, no maid, no super popular idol, no iceberg queen, no pure wife... really no.
Okay, I admit it, I said I wanted a little love as an antidote to loneliness, just a little.
There are too many, too many, there is not enough room, please don’t come over to make trouble.
........................
Fighting wits and courage with bad women has become my life script.
But the natural disaster that was sealed back then came again, and they began to hope for the return of a hero.
But when I take off the mask, I am afraid of death, greedy for money, lustful, and full of lies.
The world seemed to be falling apart.
...Then put on the mask again.
--------------
Well, that’s roughly the story described in the introduction.
I like the urban theme and am interested in urban superpowers. I want to write about cute girls in an urban setting, so I decided to write a new book. The tone of the plot is light-hearted and cheerful. If you have read my previous two urban books... I believe you understand.
...Although the tone of those two urban books doesn't seem to be very cheerful, this one is really written with the purpose of being cheerful.
I am very satisfied with all the plots of the new book that are currently in draft. All the books I have written combined have almost 10 million words. The new book happens to be stuck at this 10 million-word milestone, and it can be regarded as a culmination in a sense. I have practiced what I should have practiced before, and I have high expectations for this book.
I still hope that the new book will do better, but all I can do is to do my best and present everything to you. As for the final result, I can't decide it.
The new book should be released tomorrow. I will notify everyone when it has passed the review.
After the new book is stable, I will come back to write the extra chapter about the Taoist couple. No matter how the new book performs, the extra chapter about the Taoist couple will be free.
Well, this is the Taoist partner’s final remarks.
The mountains are high and the rivers are long, so there is no need to see each other again. I have always been here. See you in the new book.
Please keep your monthly ticket, and vote for the new book when it comes out. That’s great.
I’ll let you know tomorrow when the new book is out.
