"95%?"

Liu Xing shook his head, a look of disappointment on his face, the match had not improved for eleven consecutive days.

Over the past three months, he has spent almost all of his time reading "Dragon Babu" and has achieved impressive results, with match scores soaring from 80% to an astonishing 95%.

This is largely due to his unrivalled imagination.

Liu Xing wanted to directly increase the matching degree to 100% in one go, reaching the realm of "the unity of people and books", but unfortunately, things did not go so smoothly.

When the match rate rises to 95%, it hits a bottleneck and makes it difficult to go any further.

For eleven days, there was no change in the match.

What makes Liu Xing feel even more strange is that the match of "Dragon Babu" is already so high, but he has not been greatly affected by the novel.

It wasn't until a few days ago, when he talked about this issue with Wang Tairan, that he suddenly realized that he had missed an important step in reading - changing perspectives.

The so-called switching perspective means that when reading a novel, you should imagine yourself as the protagonist of the novel and experience the plot from the perspective of the protagonist of the novel.

Only through this transformation of perspective, can we completely regard ourselves as the protagonist of the novel in order to form a perfect sense of substitution, so as to achieve the realm of "the unity of people and books".

Perspective Shifting, which is a basic course in reading, Liu Xing has not learned before. In recent days, he has been training on perspective shifting.

Every morning when he woke up, he tried to convince himself that he was Duan Yu in "Dragon Babu", and tried to live as Duan Yu.

This kind of perspective switching training is a bit similar to the actor's training in the play. Before acting, the actor should also integrate into the character and make himself one with the character.

For this reason, Liu Xing specially bought an "Actor Training Manual" today.

In order to make himself more convinced that he was Duan Yu, Liu Xing began to do some of the things that Duan Yu loved to do.

As we all know, Duan Yu studied Buddhist scriptures quite a lot, so Liu Xing began to read Buddhist scriptures.

Wang Tairan had a few Buddhist scriptures in his study, so Liu Xing went to the Lantian Community every day to study the Buddhist scriptures.

The content of the Buddhist scriptures was obscure, and Liu Xing could see it in a fog, but he still read it hard. When it came to the seventh day, a surprise arose.

That night, he unexpectedly found that the match rate of "Dragon Babu" increased by 0.01% to 95.01%.

Although the increase is very small, it at least shows that the method is effective.

……

Day 8, Blue Sky Community.

Liu Xing was sitting on the sofa in the living room, reading a Buddhist scripture, when Wang Lanlan walked into the study, her thin eyebrows were tightly locked, and there was a faint sadness on her childish face.

"Why do you have a bitter face?" Liu Xing asked strangely.

Wang Lanlan sat on the sofa opposite, holding her chin with her little hand, and said worriedly: "Liu Xing, do you know, I looked at the sales list of Tianhai City Book Network in the morning and found that I was already on the list, ranking 98th! I am now one of the top 100 best-selling authors in Tianhai City!"

The book network sales list is ranked according to the sales of writers, Wang Lanlan's "Detective Wang Nan" has sold 100,000 copies since it was launched three months ago, and its ranking has improved by leaps and bounds, and it has entered the top 100 writers in Tianhai City in one fell swoop, becoming the writer with the fastest rise in Tianhai City this year.

"You're here to show off?" Liu Xing asked rhetorically.

"No, Liu Xing, I feel so stressed now, really!" Wang Lanlan bent her eyebrows and said, "I am now ranked 98th on the city's writer list, if my next new book can't enter the top 100 of the sales list, others will say that I am exhausted." ”

Liu Xing comforted: "Don't worry, you don't have any talent, where can you get Jiang Lang's talent?"

When Wang Lanlan heard this, she became even more depressed: "Yes, my book "Detective Wang Nan" became famous by hype, not by strength at all. If the next book hadn't been hyped up, sales would have dropped! No, I'd have to improve my writing and write a compelling plot. ”

He looked at Liu Xing with big eyes and asked seriously, "Liu Xing, can you play novel chess with me?" I want to practice the layout of the plot more. ”

The so-called novel chess is a popular chess game in the Chinese writers' circle, and writers can use novel chess to practice the layout of the plot. The novel chess was invented by Ma Xingkong, so it is also called "horse chess".

The chess pieces of horse chess are somewhat similar to chess, and both have some "role attributes".

In chess, there are chess pieces with character attributes such as "general", "phase", "soldier", "rook", "cannon", "horse" and "soldier".

In Ma Qi, there are a total of 72 common characters in novels, such as "protagonist", "supporting role", "heroine", "supporting actress" and "villain".

In the process of playing chess, the chess player constructs plot points through the layout of these pieces, and whoever has more plot points wins the game.

Liu Xing is not a writer, and he is not interested in fiction. It's just that he has been imitating Duan Yu recently, and Duan Yu is a person who is proficient in chess, so Liu Xing decided to spend some energy learning to play chess as well.

After thinking about it, Wang Lanlan had already put the novel chess on the table, and the chess pieces were divided into black and white, which was a bit similar to Go.

After the chess pieces are arranged, the game between the two sides officially begins.

"The female villain was killed by the supporting actor. Wang Lanlan eats a white chess piece.

"The actor runs for his life. Liu Xing moved a white chess piece up three squares.

"The protagonist kills the supporting actor. Wang Lanlan ate another white chess piece.

The actor continues to run for his life. Liu Xing moved the white chess pieces up five squares.

"The female villain has come back from the dead. Wang Lanlan put the white chess pieces back, and Liu Xing was about to play chess, when Wang Lanlan suddenly shouted, "Stop! My plot layout has been successful, with twists and turns!"

Liu Xing frowned slightly: "Where are the twists and turns?"

Wang Lanlan pointed to the chess game: "The female villain was killed by the supporting actor, the first fold; the protagonist killed the supporting actor to avenge the female villain, the second fold; the female villain came back from the dead and told the truth about killing with a knife, the third fold." Twists and turns, get 9 plot points, I won this game, hehe!"

Liu Xing took a closer look, and it was really "twists and turns". In fiction chess, the more twists and turns a plot wave, the more points are earned.

"Liu Xing, admit defeat in this game, you are already 15 plot points behind. Wang Lanlan looked a little surprised.

"You're too early to be happy? It's only halfway through the game. "Liu Xing puts a white chess piece on the chessboard," the No. 1 heroine appears. ”

Wang Lanlan responded calmly and put on a black chess piece: "The supporting actor chases and kills." ”

"Actress No. 2 appears. ”

The supporting actor continued the hunt. ”

"Heroine No. 3 appears. ”

"The supporting actor is still hunting. ”

"4 heroines her mother appeared. ”

"......" Wang Lanlan was a little speechless, "Liu Xing, why even the heroine's mother has appeared, you are playing chess randomly!"

"Who said that. Liu Xing pointed to the chessboard, "Look at it yourself, the plot layout is complete, with twists and turns!"

"Twists and turns?" Wang Lanlan bent her eyebrows, "Where are the twists and turns?"

Liu Xing explained: "The protagonist falls in love with the No. 1 heroine and finds that the No. 1 heroine is his sister, the first fold; the protagonist falls in love with the No. 2 heroine and finds that the No. 2 heroine is his sister again, the second fold; the protagonist falls in love with the No. 3 heroine and finds that the No. 3 heroine is also his sister, the third fold; the mother of the No. 4 heroine tells the truth, the protagonist is not his father's biological child, the first three sisters are not his own sister, the fourth fold." Twists and turns!"

Wang Lanlan was stunned, her eyes looked at the chessboard for a while, and her face showed surprise: "It's really twists and turns, it's amazing! I got 16 plot points at once, and I surpassed it!" asked with a look of admiration, "Liu Xing, how did you come up with this twists and turns layout?"

Liu Xing smiled faintly.

This plot layout is not what he thinks, but the plot of Duan Yu, the male protagonist in "Dragon Babu".

Duan Yu met Zhong Ling and found out that Zhong Ling was his sister, met Mu Wanqing and found that Mu Wanqing was his sister, met Wang Yuyan and found that Wang Yuyan was also his sister, and it was not until the end that Duan Yu learned that he was not Duan Zhengchun's biological son, and the first three sisters were no longer sisters, forming a dramatic reversal.

This plot seems simple, but it is progressive, layer-by-layer, and the sense of expectation continues to increase, and when it reaches the extreme, it forms a big reversal, and the potential energy of the first three plots is released at the same time, and the whole plot is completed in one go, and the structure is extremely exquisite.

Liu Xing has read through "Dragon Babu" hundreds of times in recent months, and the plot in the book has long been integrated into his consciousness. Just when I was playing chess, I inadvertently completed this plot layout, and designed a 'twist and turn' plot wave, which reversed the chess momentum and turned defeat into victory.

Just thinking about it, at this time, Wang Lanlan had already taken out a diary and was holding a pen to record something.

"Wang Lanlan, what are you writing?"

"Record the 'twists and turns' you just designed, such a good plot, I want to use it in my next new book, hehe!"

……

In the days that followed, in order to find Duan Yu's feelings, Liu Xing would play chess with Wang Lanlan every day, playing more than 100 games a day.

In addition to playing chess, he also did many things that Duan Yu would do.

Duan Yu was proficient in Buddhism, and Liu Xing began to read Buddhist scriptures;

Duan Yu was proficient in gardening, so Liu Xing began to study the cultivation of camellias;

Duan Yu's "Lingbo Weibu" is related to the I Ching 8864 hexagrams, so Liu Xing got a similar gossip map from a fortune teller in Tianhai City and began to study it.

Duan Yu's "Six Veins Divine Sword" is related to the meridians of the human body, and Liu Xing then studied the bone structure of the human body. His sister Liu Shiming often came into contact with corpse bones, and her knowledge in this area was quite rich, so Liu Xing learned a lot about the structure of the human body from her sister.

……

Whether it is chess, Buddhist scriptures, gardening, or Qiankun gossip and human body meridians, Liu Xing is very attentive to learning, although he has only learned a little scratch.

Of course, he learned this knowledge mainly just to find Duan Yu's feelings.

Hard work pays off.

Liu Xing's efforts were not in vain, as time passed, he slowly got used to Duan Yu's perspective, and Duan Yu's consciousness began to integrate into his consciousness.

When Liu Xing was reading "Dragon Babu", he began to enter the realm of selflessness, and gradually had a feeling of being one with Duan Yu, as if he was about to enter the supreme realm of "the unity of man and book".

With these subtle changes in Liu Xing's consciousness, the matching degree of "Dragon Babu" has gradually improved.

On the 10th day, the match was 95.2%!

On the 15th day, the match was 96.7%!

On the 20th day, the match was 97.4%!

……

On the 30th day, the match was 98.3%!

……

On the 40th day, the match was 99.1%!

……

Day 50,......
