After the Fairy Disappeared

  The text is nearly 1.5 million words. After experiencing the fog in the early stage, the context of this article gradually becomes clear. But there are still friends who still don't know what the main line of "Immortal" is and where the protagonist's struggle is.

   Also, where is the motivation and motivation of the protagonist to do things?

  In this tea party, Jiufang will talk about this issue.

   To avoid ambiguity, we candidly say that the main line is written in the introduction:

   "Follow the clues left by the immortals, reverse the established fate, unravel the truth about gods and demons, and make meritorious deeds by the way."

  Following the book friends so far, they can already vaguely perceive the crux of the distortion in this world, the root of the contradictions, and who is the enemy the protagonist will fight against in the end.

  For the protagonist, such an enemy is still stronger than the distant mountains and stronger than the way of heaven.

   Right, so this is another boring salvation novel.

  Why didn’t you throw out the main line from the beginning of the article? Why didn’t you set goals for the protagonist and readers at the beginning?

  Because this goal is too wide and too far away. To put it bluntly, it's too big.

  As soon as he crossed over, you said to him: "The gods in this world are terribly deadly, pointing at whoever is dead. Now I give you an important task, to defeat the gods."

  People will only spit on you and call you crazy.

   No one is born a fighter.

  Even love and hate need reasons, not to mention such ethereal things as faith, will, and perseverance?

  As a migrant worker who has passed through the modern society, one cannot expect him to have a firm fighting spirit and a lofty consciousness from the very beginning. After all, he may not have understood it in his previous life.

   He should start with what he does best, namely:

   Go with the flow.

   This is not a derogatory term. The best outcome for ordinary people struggling to survive in the troubled times is to just drift with the flow and get enough food and clothing—who isn’t tired after three years of the epidemic? We are still in a prosperous age, who dares to say that he has not been cut by this chaotic world? —If you want to be Liu Bang or Zhu Yuanzhang, the probability is so small that it can be ignored.

   Once the generals are successful, all bones will wither, and ordinary people will wither after leaving.

  So the protagonist first rolls in the world of mortals, experiencing the dangers of the world and his father's heart—Volume 1 "Coiling Dragon".

  Then officially open the copy of Dafang Pot-Panlong City + Gold Finger, and practice secretly to improve yourself-the second and third volumes of "Fairy".

  As the eldest son of the governor of Xiazhou, experience the rise and fall of the empire, the ups and downs of the officialdom, get involved in military and political struggles, and experience the first battle in your life—the fourth volume "Shi Huan" and the fifth volume "Dun Yu".

  Using water to escape from the motherland and father, from then on the sky and the earth are wide and open, and develop freely—the sixth volume of "The Devil's Nest".

  Under the guidance of Panlong City and fate, advance towards the territory of the enemy of life, observe, integrate and study it, and destroy it—Volumes 7 and 8 of "Utopia of Demons (Part 2.

  After experiencing the author's ruthless training, Brother Chuan's experience gradually enriched before he could establish his own goals.

   Goals that fit the main line.

  Such as unlocking the secrets of the Dafang Pot, such as finding out the weakness of the gods, or raising one's own power to protect oneself and fight against... Well, these are all things for later, and I will break them down later.

  Actually, it’s not a bad idea to regard the main line of this book as the protagonist’s personal growth process.

  Now that we are talking about goals, let's talk about "certainty".

  Let me first apologize to everyone. The main line and goal of this book were indeed not obvious at the beginning of the writing. Most people can feel it vaguely, but they can’t say it.

  And every time the protagonist does something, there may not be a clear benefit, that is, the lack of the so-called "light pulling effect":

   I pulled the switch and the light came on.

  The feedback is very timely, the effect is very obvious, and I feel very satisfied.

  The above two points contribute to the uncertainty of this article.

  The online articles that you usually read, these are the basic elements and important coordinates, any less can be sentenced to death.

  So writing "uncertainty" well is actually a difficult challenge.

  Why is Jiu Fang so thankless? Isn’t it good to honestly write a novel with a clear main line and a clear goal?

   On the one hand, it is bad taste.

  If this article allows everyone to see the head at a glance and know exactly what the protagonist will do in the future, then the author's fun will be reduced by at least half.

   (well, just kidding)

On the other hand, I hope that this atmosphere shrouded in unknown fog will make it easier for book friends to enter Brother Chuan's perspective, see what he sees, think what he thinks, and worry about what he is anxious about. The situation and environment in which the protagonist is located.

   After all, "uncertainty" is the biggest problem facing the protagonist.

  It's like in the vast ocean, you, me, and the protagonist are all on the same broken ship, swept by the tide of the times, and have to face the unknown and danger together.

  As for the problem of insufficient "light-pulling effect", Jiufang will not avoid it, and this is also one of the directions for future efforts.

  As Brother Chuan becomes stronger and stronger, this aspect will also be strengthened.

  The characters have to grow, so the author has to grow too.

   Our text is not perfect, not blameless.

  So, give "Immortal" a little time to overcome difficulties, a little patience to overcome difficulties, and a little irrigation of happiness, and it may also grow beyond expectations.

   It's a bit of a surprise, isn't it more worth looking forward to?
