Hello everyone, a certain tea wrote this paragraph while bowing to everyone.

It may be strange to write the closing speech of the second volume at this time, shouldn't it be written at the end of the second volume?

It's probably because I'm ...... It's lazy, ha, why can this guy say such things with confidence, it feels so shameless. Please, please don't hit me, or I'll just grab my head and get away. Actually, the reason why I put it here is more because I think this is the right time.

First, when the second volume was just finished, there was only one feeling in my heart: Ah, finally ......

I don't think anything else. It's like just finishing a 12-minute run on the playground, or the cliché "I feel hollowed out". If I had to write some testimonials at that time, I would probably have to pick up some clichés that had been said and say them again, which was neither interesting nor my style.

And now, after a while, I look back on that journey in a more relaxed manner, and I sincerely feel that there are many feelings, touches, and gratitude that I want to share with you.

Second, the story of the third volume is about to enter an important turning point here, so there is a lot I want to talk to you about at this time. The next story will change the state of holding the pipa and half-covering the face to say goodbye, and cut into the main axis of this volume neatly and neatly. Why did I choose this approach, and what happens to the story?

..................

The process of writing the second volume was no less than a thrilling adventure for me. This is completely different from when the first volume was written.

The idea of the first volume was actually in my head for a long time, and I love the story of "Smash Bros. Battle Royale", whether it's movies, comics, ...... The murderous tension combined with the plot development with countless possibilities always seems enjoyable.

But what makes me feel like a fish in my throat is that most of these stories only focus on how to fight and kill, as for why to fight, why to kill, the setting behind the reason is often far-fetched, it seems that the creators don't care much about this, it's cool, but, I care so much. Also, when watching this kind of story, I often can't help but want to complain, please, the big brothers and sisters who come and go are fighting so fiercely, have you considered the feelings of local passers-by?

Out of an impulse not to vomit or be unhappy, the story of the first volume has been drafted before I put pen to paper, with the multi-party chaotic battle, fighting for victory "deer game" as the core to construct a closed-loop framework, but the deer game itself is only a branch line that serves the main line, and the real main line is the gradual decryption of the reasons behind it. And the protagonist Sun Suhe is a passerby who is both involved in it and out of it. I wanted to create something different with this iconoclastic perspective.

The story of the whole volume takes place within this framework. In this way, I first delineated the rules and circles, and then tossed and turned in them, even if I encountered a difficult place, I was very calm, because I knew in my heart that it would definitely be able to straighten out.

The second volume was completely different, and I had only a general idea in my mind about what I wanted in this volume.

First of all, it touches on religious themes slightly, which also paves the way for the subsequent development of the book's important setting, "poetic talent".

Then there is the main character Sun Suhe's official start of magic practice, and the initial process of using his own abilities.

There's along with our cute little bears as well as cute ...... Well, the appearance of the not-so-cute fat cat Tanuki Master, "Spirit" officially appeared on the board as an important force. This contains a small ambition of mine, the traditional creation of monsters, in the end, it is still written about people, and I want to write about "not people".

Of course, Zhou Yiqing, an embarrassing idol with dual identities, is indispensable, this idea is so funny, I must write it. At the same time, his line can also pave the way for the follow-up story of the old man.

......

There are many others, and it would be too verbose to list them one by one. In retrospect, it was really complicated.

At that time, a large number of ingredients were already in hand, but some of them were grown in the mountains, some were swimming in the sea, some were salty, some were sweet, and it was a matter of great thought how to treat them in harmony with the taste and at the same time make the reader have fun eating them.

Moreover, some of the clues left over from the first volume need to be gathered here, and the foreshadowing of the subsequent story must also be properly buried here.

At that time, the situation was really inextricably linked, and the foggy wild horses were running wildly ahead, and for me, a novice who was writing a long-form serialization for the first time, I felt exhausted several times, and I didn't know what to write next.

A sentence is so simple. Fortunately, the characters in our story are no longer just puppets, but gradually have their own fresh life, and every now and then, I can feel that they have their adventures, they have their souls, the story is already there, I just need to record it.

It seems a bit mysterious, but this feeling is very real, and when I write to the end, I have never thought of the inspiration that I have never thought of, and it is a kind of comfortable touch.

By the way, 70% of these inspirations came when I listened to the sound of water while washing my face and bathing, maybe my muse likes to live in the water, hahaha.

Recently, I re-read the first two volumes, and what I saw was no longer the words that I had chewed on repeatedly, but the faint sense of alienation brought by time made me, a "reader", experience a new feeling. Looking back now, the whole story is very different from my original vague vision, but I already had what I wanted, and there were surprises that I didn't expect.

Tea friends, the taste of this dish should not be bad.

Of course, I also know that there are regrettable aspects of this. As a reader, I can feel the immaturity of the pen and ink scheduling, such as some places that were written happily at the time, but on the whole it seemed cumbersome. For example, some plots need to be added a few more times to be hot enough. For example, some characters are a little thin, and it may be better if you can spend more ink on them.

Fortunately, these regrets are not irreparable, everyone must have found that our story will not be like most fantasy, the protagonist is upgraded, change the map, the previous supporting characters will become a waste and will not appear again, I am reluctant to these guys, these old faces and old friends will appear in the future story with a fuller image, and write a strong plot with us.

Serialization is the best of this.

In this era of fragmented reading, "long" seems to have become an original sin, "too long to read", and you can see this natural four words on the Internet anytime and anywhere.

But interestingly, there seems to be only one exception. Only when you watch the serial, there will be "too short to watch, don't watch it, raise it first".

I can go on adventures with everyone and create this world together, and it's a real extravagant romance. I'm very, very grateful for your support for me, and you may not imagine how important it is to me.

Special thanks to "light from the heart"! Say a very embarrassing thing, I have never understood the comment system in the author's background, and I haven't seen a lot of comments before, I'm really sorry. But in the past two days, it seems to have been revised.,A lot of comments that haven't been read jumped out at once.,Even the comments of QQ reading jumped out.。 Thank you for your continued support, I read every message you left at the back of the chapter, and my heart is really warm. In the next chapter, there will be a very important new chess player, guess what his name is?

Special thanks to Emiya-kun, for pointing out my typo in the Thirty-Five Rules of the Art of War. I wrote "The Art of War Thirty-five Solid Rules" is really ridiculous and generous, the previous homework is insufficient, I should check more information. I've changed to "箇" in the text.,Since the system can display.,I think it's better to use it.,It feels a little more handsome than using the simplified "one". You can be sure of my wordsmith. Thank you for your support, I feel very lucky to have met you.

..................

Regarding the follow-up story of the third volume, I would like to talk to you a little bit here, rest assured, there will be no spoilers to hurt everyone's reading experience.

The framework of the first volume is a closed circular structure, and the second volume is based on Sun Suhe's process of dealing with the legacy of the Bamboo Forest Trading Company, stringing together the interrelated stories like rock sugar gourds.

In the third volume, I wanted to try to write a group portrait and create a more three-dimensional world.

That's why I've not been in a hurry to cut to the main axis in my stories so far, but have spent a lot of time on the supporting characters, such as Izumi Kagamika, Akutagawa's grandson, and Ye Mingshan......

Some friends complained about me before, how could the battle between Sun Suhe and Ye Mingshan be written as if Ye Mingshan was the protagonist, and almost robbed the protagonist of the limelight.

Haha, although Mr. Suhe was abducted and deceived and made a great name, he is not Long Aotian. I hate plots where everything is good and is taken up by the little rascal-like protagonist. In my heart, the charm of the character is not to suppress others, on the contrary, the shine of everyone can better set off the brilliance of one person. And since this volume has moved the stage abroad, and I can write more freely, how can I not play well?

Let's look forward to their respective activities.

Finally, allow me to repeat what I have said earlier.

I wanted to write a "real" interest in this book, to create a sense that everything in the book was really happening. The historical part can create a sense of realism by tracing some details, while the modern part is completely different. Because our story is full of fantasy, and the modern part is set in the daily life of our daily life, would you have a sense of reality if you were to say that there was a big fight going on in Kyoto at this time?

So my idea is that in the modern part, I will deliberately blur and distort some details to pull it away from our daily life, so that it is more realistic. For example, the stage of the first two volumes, everyone must have seen that it is basically based on Hangzhou, but I prefer to use the description of "this city", which is the reason.

In this volume, the chess players who are only background characters and do not officially participate in the story use their real names, ranging from legendary figures such as Shusha, Xiuce, and Wu Qingyuan, to as close as Fujisawa Hideyuki, Nie Weiping, Lee Changho and other chess predecessors.

The chess players who participated in the story changed their names to pseudonyms. For example, the current first person in China, South Korea and Japan:

Ke Jie - Ke Zhe

Park Tinghuan - Park Tingheng

Iyama Yuta (Ben Yin Fang Wenyu) - Inoue Yuta (Ben Yin Fang Wenyu), Ben Yin Fang Wenyu as a nickname, do not change.

..................

I've written a lot before I know it, thank you for being willing to listen to me chatter for so long.

Tea lovers come from all over the world, but here, we are temporarily free from the shackles of reality, experience adventures together, and gradually construct a world that is both real and illusory, which is really a fairy tale romantic thing.

I won't say much about my thanks, but allow me to pay tribute to you with a cup of tea.

All over the world, a total of this cup.
