After rebirth, I became a great writer

Chapter 110 The anticipated battle (III)

On the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, when many people are still enjoying the joy of the New Year.

In Kyoto, in a bedroom that is almost filled with books, a man with a high hairline is scratching his few hair hard, holding a notebook in his other hand.

The notebook is full of sloppy small characters, and there are many red lines on the page that make people feel extremely immense when they look at it.

The man scratched his head while muttering.

"No, this kind of writing is logically incompatible. How should this foreshadowing be buried so that readers can not discover it? How can this case not leave traces?"

The man's name is Ye Feng, and he is also a writer. His pseudonym is A Qi. His pseudonym is not at all good, but it looks like a nickname. However, if you mention the name A Qi among detective fans, it is really well-known. He is the most popular writer in the detective novel circle at present.

Ye Feng’s writing experience is a bit similar to Hongwen. He also stepped on the altar with the great gods in the circle.

He entered the industry at the age of 23 and made his debut in the circle with his first work "Forensic", and directly won the fifth place in the sales list of physical books for detective novels that year. He was a young man's success.

The first place in the sales list that year was Mr. Jin, a veteran detective writer in the circle. Mr. Jin was a pseudonym and said he was Mr. Mr. Jin, but he was actually over fifty years old.

Just like Mr. Hexuan, a young literary writer, Mr. Jin is also an evergreen in the circle of detective novel writers. However, his annual sales volume and writer ranking are the number one in the sales volume of his works, and no one can surpass them, and no one dares to challenge him.

Because Mr. Jin has a rule that any writer who writes detective novels can challenge him, but if the challenge fails, he will have to stop writing for ten years and cannot write a book. This alone scares away many writers in the circle with ideas. After all, once the challenge fails, it will basically be considered as saying goodbye to the detective circle.

Ye Feng was born with a newborn calf and was not afraid of a tiger. He decided that the evergreen tree in the detective world would challenge him.

Of course, Ye Feng is not a naughty man. He challenges him without doing anything. He spent half a year working on Mr. Jin's works and another half a year preparing new books.

After all the preparations were made, he challenged Mr. Jin, so Mr. Jin naturally agreed.

One is a very talented new detective god, and the other is a master of domestic detective novels. The battle at that time attracted the attention of all detective novelists and detective fans.

This battle lasted for a year. Detective novels are not like online articles, and are basically physical books and magazines, so the time span is relatively long.

At the beginning, the two were almost equal, and even in the middle of the day, Ye Feng's new work surpassed Mr. Jin. Ye Feng was very young and his thinking jumped. Some of the cases in the book were very novel, which made many detective fans lit up.

However, the more you find the detective novel, the harder it is to write in the later stage. Even if you keep changing new stories, the plot of the case must be coherent, which is a very test of the author's skills. Newcomers with little experience can easily fail to write in the later stage.

As expected, because the early preparation was too high, Ye Feng was a little unable to control it later, and the logic became chaotic. Detective novels are also called mystery novels, and logic must be integrated, so many writers in the industry have begun to regret that Ye Feng failed to challenge.

Because in contrast, Mr. Jin's works have been gradually gradually, and have begun to end all the foreshadowings, and there are no logical problems.

However, the result was beyond everyone's expectations. Mr. Jin suddenly announced the closure of the writing, saying that his writing had collapsed and the plot could not end, and then he withdrew from the detective novel circle.

This incident caused a stir in the detective circle at that time. Mr. Jin actually lost to a newcomer. Ye Feng was also very popular for a while and was called genius. However, many industry insiders also questioned that Mr. Jin deliberately gave in to Ye Feng and could not bear to have a genius sealed the pen for ten years.

But as time goes by, doubts are getting smaller and smaller. In addition, Ye Feng's subsequent works are not inferior to Mr. Yu Jin at all, and one of them even sets a new sales record for domestic detective novels.

Until now, Mr. Jin has become history, and Ye Feng is the first detective novel writer.

"Oh, I don't want to think about it anymore! The more I think about it, the more chaotic it becomes."

Ye Feng put down the notebook in his hand, took out his cell phone, and planned to go to the literature forum to browse.

When he opened his phone, he saw a message prompting to update the chapter on his new Qingcheng APP bookshelf.

There is only one book in the bookshelf of this APP, which is "The Sword in the Snow".

Ye Feng is a detective novelist. Under normal circumstances, he would not read fairy tale novels like Xuezhong, let alone online literature. The reason why he read this novel is that when he visited the literary forum, he saw Bai Yu and Feng Zijie's comments.

There are two novels in the post, but it is obvious that Bai Yu Feng Zijie is more concerned about Xuezhong. He analyzed the various awkward and difficult foreshadowings in the early stage of Xuezhong for a detailed analysis. This made Ye Feng interested.

For detective novels, foreshadowing is very important. It is not certain that this novel can bring him new inspiration, so he downloaded the app to read the novel.

I have to say that the foreshadowing in the early stage of the snow is a bit tricky. Many small details do give Ye Feng some new ideas, but if the impact is very great, it does not exist like the enlightenment, so it can only be said to be of some effect.

Anyway, he couldn't think of new ideas now, so Ye Feng opened the bookshelf.

"Young people have good energy, they can update so many words at once."

First, he sighed at Hongwen's update, and Ye Feng began to read the main text.

Looking at the updated storyline of Xuezhong, Ye Feng's expression did not change at all. He was not as excited as Du Huaiwen's domineering words in the book, nor was he as touched by Miao Mingjie's riding cranes to the south of the Yangtze River.

Ye Feng mainly reads the foreshadowing in the novel. Soon, he saw the battle that all the fans in the snow were looking forward to.

When the East China Sea battles, the thunder and raindrops are louder, the rivers and the seas are overwhelming, and the sword curtain is long.

Wang Xianzhi had white beard and white hair, wearing a black robe, tall and burly figure, barefoot and barefoot standing on the raging waves with his hands behind his back, allowing one thousand eight hundred swords to swarm and shoot, but all the swords were broken three feet away and fell into the sea.

When everyone thought that one thousand eight hundred swords were useless, the old sword god was about to lose his skills. Unexpectedly, Li Chungang slowly revealed the word "Sword Form", and all the broken swords fell from the sea floated to the surface, gathering the furnace into an unparalleled giant sword, lying among the two.

When the sword is completed, the sky breaks and the bright golden light slowly sprinkles.

Li Chungang laughed loudly and said, "Li Chungang's sword can open the Tianmen, can you kill Wang Xianzhi?"

Li Chungang opened the gate of heaven with one sword.

It is straightforward to the point, this mountain is Kunlun.

If Du Huaiwen saw this battle description, he would definitely jump up excitedly.

Ye Feng still looked calm and his emotions did not fluctuate.

It was not until he saw Li Chungang "opening the gate of heaven with one sword" that the expression on his face changed.

"No! No! There is a story in this sword opening the sky gate."

As the first person in detective novels, Ye Feng's vision is naturally very vicious, and he saw that there was something wrong with the logic here.

Xuezhong once said that Li Chungang had a battle with Wang Xianzhi. At that time, Li Chungang was in his peak period, and Wang Xianzhi was just a newcomer, and his martial arts value was definitely not as high as it is now. However, in a battle without any suspense, Li Chungang was defeated in the end. Ye Feng also thought that this setting was not very reasonable at the time.

Ye Feng remembers that this is what he wrote in the novel at that time. Li Chungang held a wooden horse and cow in his hand, and fought against Wang Xianzhi with two green snakes in his sleeves. In the end, the wooden horse and cow were broken and Wang Xianzhi won.

The two-sleeved green snake is the unique skill of the old sword god Li Chungang, which is very powerful. There is no doubt that this is true, but Li Chungang, who was at his peak, was already a land god at that time, should have more than this unique skill. Otherwise, Li Chungang would not have been able to have suppressed the entire world for so many years alone.

Compared with this battle, Li Chungang's sword opens the sky gate to stabilize the green snake with both sleeves. It can be said to be a real magic method, which makes Wang Xianzhi, who is now invincible, feels a little unbearable.

The Sword Kaitian Gate was not newly cultivated by the old sword god, which means that Li Chungang had the past. So why didn’t he use Sword Kaitian Gate to call him? This is obviously a problem.

"Yes, yes, the book says that Jiankaitianmen will kill people by making a move. Wang Xianzhi is now in the realm of immortals, but he will definitely die when he encountered this move. There is only one explanation. The old sword god Li Chungang Xicai couldn't bear to use Jiankaitianmen to kill Wang Xianzhi at that time, so he was defeated by Wang Xianzhi, which also helped Wang Xianzhi to fulfill his wish.

But Wang Xianzhi, as an opponent, must know it well, so he claims to be the second in the world, because in Wang Xianzhi's heart, Li Chungang has always been the best in the world."

"It must be like this, it must be like this."

Ye Feng shouted happily for his discovery.

I have to say that the logical reasoning of the detective novelist is really strong, and in fact, the same is true for the settings in Xuezhong, but this will not be written until later.

Suddenly, a thunder flashed through my mind.

The old sword god Li Chungang cherishes Wang Xianzhi's talent and cannot bear to take action. He gives himself fame and makes Wang Xianzhi successful. This reminds Ye Feng of his battle with Mr. Jin a few years ago.

Later, Ye Feng also suspected that Mr. Jin had deliberately asked him. After all, how could a veteran writer who has written detective novels for so many years make his works fall apart? He is not a newcomer who cannot lack the foundation.

However, Ye Feng really couldn't think of the reason why Mr. Jin asked him, and how could anyone be willing to give up his decades of reputation and choose to fulfill a newcomer?

Moreover, literati are inferior to each other, who would be willing to lose that?

But this part of the snow today made Ye Feng feel unable to calm down. It is undeniable that there are respected seniors in the writer circle. Did Mr. Jin treat Wang Xianzhi like Li Chungang in the novel?

The more Ye Feng thought about it, the more likely it was. After all, if he lost at that time, he would have been a ten-year prison sentence, which meant that his writing journey was cut off, and there was no such thing as the first detective novel now.

Thinking of this, Ye Feng could no longer calm down, and he didn't even care about changing his clothes, so he hurried out. He wanted to go to Mr. Jin's house and ask clearly.

If this matter is true, then the kindness he owes great, even Wang Xianzhi in the novel is inferior to that of him because he has no gratitude.

Suburbs of Kyoto.

In a small house, a whole family was eating supper around a large round table. This is a very warm picture and a microcosm of many families during the Chinese New Year.

In the center of the round table, there was a kind-hearted old man who looked over 60 years old, but his face was rosy and healthy.

"Dad! Please help me check the novel later. I always feel that there are some logical problems."

The old man's son said at the dinner table.

"Let's go to my study later. Changming, you'd better not compete with Ye Feng. It's a good thing not to admit defeat, but you must recognize yourself. You are not suitable for writing detective novels, and you are suitable for writing biographies to study knowledge."

"Dad! I must write a detective novel that surpasses him, and I must avenge you."

Upon hearing this, the old man looked at his son with a helplessness. This old man was the evergreen tree in the circle of detective novel writers at that time, with his pen name Mr. Jin.

To this day, he has been out of the circle for almost ten years. Just like Li Chungang and Wang Xianzhi in the snow, Mr. Jin said that his writing had collapsed, which naturally does not exist. With his knowledge of being immersed in detective novels for so many years, how could he collapse? He cherishes his talent and cannot bear to let a very talented young man finish writing for ten years.

The detective novel has always been suppressed by Western countries. The old man still couldn't compare after working hard for decades, so he put his hopes on his younger generation.

He set the rules back then to test writers in the detective circle. If he didn't even have the courage to challenge him, let alone confronting those Westerners.

Unfortunately, no one dared to challenge him for several years until Ye Feng appeared. To be honest, Ye Feng challenged him at that time, and the old man was very happy. He hoped that Ye Feng could really beat him.

Unfortunately, Ye Feng laid too much in the early stage of the work, which led to the end of the work being unable to stop in the later stage.

While the old man was regretful, he also saw hope. He was very optimistic about Ye Feng's talent and believed that this young man would eventually surpass him. So the old man chose to close his pen and retire from the circle.

He didn't tell anyone about this, and even his family members said it. This also led to his son treating Ye Feng as an enemy.

The doorbell rang rapidly, and the old man's son stood up and went to open the door.

"Who is here to visit this night of the first day of the Lunar New Year?"

Jin Changming muttered.

After opening the door, a face that he was extremely bored appeared in his sight, and the person coming was Ye Feng.

"Ye Feng, what are you here? Our family doesn't welcome you."

"Jin Changming, I have an urgent matter to find Mr. Jin and let me go in."

Jin Changming blocked the door and prevented Ye Feng from coming in. At this time, his father's voice came.

"Changming, why are you blocking the door and letting you come in?"

Jin Changming had no choice but to let go.

Ye Feng walked in and saw the old man at a glance. He opened his mouth, trembling in his voice.

"Old Jin. Did you deliberately let me do it back then? In fact, you didn't write it, you should have won."

Ye Feng's question was not only Jin Changming was stunned, but everyone in the room was confused. What did this mean? Everyone looked at the old man.

a long time

The old man sighed lightly.

"It doesn't matter who lost and who won back then. What's important is that you have surpassed me now, right?"

Ye Feng was struck by lightning, how could he not understand? For a moment, guilt, touched, and respectful emotions rolled in Ye Feng's heart, and finally turned into a line of tears.

"Old Jin! Thank you!"

Sorry, this chapter is all for today! I am still a lunch break. The epidemic here is very serious. I need to provide Internet protection and I will be on duty tonight! I can’t write anymore, and I will resume double updates tomorrow! Thank you book friends and Yinyue Qinglian for your monthly tickets, and thank you for your support! I hope the epidemic will pass soon. Alas!
