079 Seven weapons
Chivalry Magazine.
The run-down magazine was as depressed as ever.
Luo Dashan sat in the editor-in-chief's office with a bitter face, his heart full of helplessness.
Zhou Hai resigned, and the editor-in-chief who had worked in "Xia Ke Magazine" for many years finally couldn't survive it anymore and submitted his resignation to the headquarters.
Because the operation of "Xia Ke Magazine" has indeed reached the point of running out of oil, the headquarters very simply approved Zhou Hai's resignation.
After saying goodbye to the editors of the magazine one by one, Zhou Hai took his wife and children on the train back to his hometown -- all the ups and downs in Tiandu in the past few years have gone with them.
He was succeeded as editor-in-chief by Luo Dashan.
However, Luo Dashan knew that he could only be the editor-in-chief for one month, because the headquarters had made it clear that if the magazine still only sold 100 copies this month, the branch called "Xia Ke Magazine" would be completely disbanded.
Luo Dashan doesn't think he can create a miracle and turn things around.
"I experienced the desolation of the last editor-in-chief. ”
Luo Dashan smiled bitterly and opened the mailbox of the editorial department, which contained only a few dozen manuscripts.
I remember that when "Xia Ke Magazine" was first established, the online mailbox of this editorial office could receive hundreds of submissions every day, but now, ......
Forcibly suppressed all kinds of feelings, Luo Dashan began to review the manuscript seriously.
Even if it's the last month, I can't be sorry for my job, how many years of conscientious work, I can't just leave it alone because the magazine is on the verge of closure.
It's just that, because the scale of the magazine is limited, so naturally there will be no famous people to submit articles to "Xia Ke Magazine", and most of the submissions received by Luo Dashan are low-quality practice works, and most of the authors are newcomers with little experience.
Soon, Luo Dashan finished reading the first submission.
The pattern remains the same as always, and the story is as lackluster as ever......
After reviewing several manuscripts in a row, Luo Dashan did not see any interesting contributions.
"Could it be that in the last month, you still have to pull out the big one among the short ones like before, and forcibly select a story with smooth logic?" Luo Dashan was a little unwilling, and with a sigh of relief, he continued to look at the manuscript one by one.
Nearly an hour later...... Luo Dashan looked at these manuscripts dejectedly and felt a deep powerlessness.
At this time, there was only the last submission left in the mailbox, but Luo Dashan suddenly had no interest in continuing to review.
All the previous manuscripts are assembly line works with no new ideas, and I forget them after reading them, and I can't even remember what was written in those manuscripts just now, Luo Dashan doesn't think that this last manuscript will be any different.
He got up and made a cup of tea, and after taking a sip, he sighed and clicked on the last submission......
As soon as I clicked on the text, a familiar poem jumped into my eyes - Bai Yujing in the sky, twelve cities on the fifth floor. The immortals caressed my top and gave me immortality.
"It's so special, I actually used the masterpiece of the poet fairy Li Bai as the beginning of the story. This novel beginning made Luo Dashan a little interested, and he also deliberately looked back at the name of the work - "Immortal Sword".
You must know that for the previous works, Luo Dashan directly reviewed the manuscript without even reading the title, and this is the only manuscript that makes Luo Dashan willing to look back at the title of the book.
continued to read, and Luo Dashan understood why Li Bai's poem was used as the beginning of the work, because the male protagonist of this work is named Bai Yujing.
And the sword of the actor Bai Yujing, also taken from the poem, is called "Immortal Sword".
"The old scabbard, and the satin wrapped around the hilt, are just as old, and I can't see any murderous aura about him. However, the sword in this old scabbard was terrifyingly sharp. This is the most terrifying sword in the rivers and lakes - Bai Yujing's immortal sword!"
"The people in the rivers and lakes are afraid of Bai Yujing, afraid of Bai Yujing's sword. For he is the only one who kills, and no one can kill him. ”
When he saw this paragraph, Luo Dashan had already sat up straight, his breathing was slightly short, and his eyes became brighter and brighter!
The editor of martial arts novels has also been an editor for many years, and Luo Dashan has long been tired of the outdated routines of martial arts novels, so this kind of appearance is an invincible setting, which hit Luo Dashan's heart at once.
"How to develop next, please don't write it down!" Luo Dashan is now both apprehensive and expectant.
Because the protagonist is almost invincible when he debuts, there is no goal and no direction, so the plot is difficult to control, and it is really not easy for ordinary people to write it.
Luo Dashan continued to watch......
In the silence of the room, there was only a breath that was not very calm.
The second hand of the clock made a ticking sound, and the tea was a little cold.
Gradually, Luo Dashan seemed to forget his identity as an editor, and began to appreciate this work called "Eternal Sword" from the perspective of a pure reader.
And as time passed bit by bit, and the plot continued to develop in depth in the pages turned again and again, Luo Dashan finally understood what he really wanted to write in the book......
In fact, the most terrifying thing about Bai Yujing is not his sword, but his laughter. Because his laughter has defeated many big names under his sword, and his laughter has also made him escape from the sword of others countless times. ”
This work seems to be writing about swords, but in fact, it is written about the power of a smile.
Life is always a scam, anything can happen, and no one knows who will have the last laugh.
"As long as a person knows how to use his strengths, he can knock people down without using martial arts at all. ”
The heroine of "Eternal Sword" is Yuan Zixia, who has terrifying strength unlike Bai Yujing, she is a weak woman with no martial arts, and her strength is laughter - because of laughter, martial arts masters of all sizes are easily put to death by her, no matter how sharp the sword is, it can't compare to that moving smile.
"So the first weapon I said was not the sword, but laughter, and only laughter could really conquer people's hearts. So when you understand this, you should put away your sword and smile more!"
......
After reading this work called "Eternal Sword", Luo Dashan only felt that the world of martial arts seemed to have opened a new door.
It was this novel that made him understand that martial arts can still be written like this, and it was also this novel that made him see a trace of ...... The hope of the rise of martial arts novels!
"A short and medium-length martial arts novel can contain philosophy, not only the story is complete, but it makes people feel embarrassed, even from a literary point of view, it is impeccable......"
Luo Dashan stood up excitedly, ready to call his colleagues outside to read the novel, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he suddenly paused again, because he suddenly found ......
Under "The Sword of Eternal Life", there is even a novel.
It seems that this author didn't just send a "Eternal Sword".
Because of his momentary excitement, he almost ignored another manuscript sent by this author.
And the name of another novel has the same effect as "Eternal Sword", which is called "Peacock Feather".
