Chapter 65: A Sword and a Sword (Part II)
First impressions matter.
For example, if a person goes on a blind date, if he falls in love at first sight, it is how to look at how to pleasing the eye, and even exploding foul language is a manifestation of straightforwardness, on the contrary, gentlemanly etiquette will also be regarded as hypocrisy.
The same is true for reading novels, the slightly bland beginning of "Yue Nu Sword" disappointed Bai Ming, who was full of expectations, and caused him to be inevitably affected when he read the follow-up content.
To put it simply, it is to read with a kind of "I am very unhappy" mentality, even if the beginning of "Yue Nu Sword" is far better than those boring and monotonous contemporaneous works in terms of writing and narrative, Bai Ming is still very dissatisfied, he thought of a lot of wording in his heart, and is ready to wait for Chen Feng to teach Chen Feng after reading it, from the perspective of "Youth Tour", this is a rare good seedling, Bai Ming will never allow him to die halfway.
Bai Ming has been blinded by that "disappointment" and has lost his basic judgment as the editor-in-chief; He established initial trust in Chen Feng through the "Youth Tour", and because of Hong Xie, he had a mind to take care of this junior, so when the form and content of this "Yue Nu Sword" was different from what he thought before, he walked into a dead end in thinking.
This kind of thinking, if Chen Feng knew it, he would inevitably have to recall a story with big letters.
I think that at the beginning, the Z big book was "infinite horror", and countless great achievements were made in the literary world of the Internet, and after the book became famous, he was ambitious and created the second part of the infinite trilogy full-time at home, "Infinite Future".
From an objective point of view, Infinite Future is also a rare good book, but it's a pity that "Infinite Future" belongs to the theme of urban intelligent warfare plus the replacement of the protagonist, a large number of terrifying fans of infinite fear don't buy it, and Z Dapu almost didn't even have to eat.
Later, someone commented that even if "Infinite Future" was to release a book with a newcomer's vest, the results might not be so bleak.
These are all off-topic.
Now Chen Feng must not know the complicated thoughts in Bai Ming's heart, he sat on the leather chair, leaned back slightly, and looked at the scenery in the office with a relaxed face.
He was comfortable and relaxed, just waiting for Bai Ming to get up, and shouted three times: "Good, good, good." ”
This is taken for granted in Chen Feng's eyes, and even he, a traverser who has been influenced by countless "martial arts TV series", couldn't help but applaud again and again after reading "Yue Nu Sword" for the first time, and his thoughts couldn't be calm for a long time.
The length of 10,000 words is considered a short one in martial arts novels.
At the speed of Bai Ming's reading, in less than ten minutes, he finished reading "Yue Nu Sword" from beginning to end.
To be honest, he was a little confused.
His chest was as muffled as a big stone, and he grunted in his throat as if he was about to say something, but suddenly he buried his head lower, and he decided to look at it again.
In this way, there was a lot of time for no reason, and Chen Feng, who was enjoying the interior of the office, was bored and found some information related to the Yue Nu Sword in his memory.
The appearance of "Yue Nu Sword" is that Old Man Jin originally wrote a short story for each of the "Three Musketeers", but in the end only the first part was completed for some reason.
This work is based on Wu Yue's struggle for hegemony as the historical background, Wu is superior and inferior, Gou Jian in order to defeat Fucha, adopted Fan Li's strategy, just when he was close to success, he encountered setbacks in sword casting and swordsmanship.
The swordsmen of Wu State are not only good at swordsmanship, but also make good use of the art of war, and the Yue people are invincible, and the shepherd girl A Qing who appeared at this time easily defeated the eight swordsmen of Wu State, Fan Li brought A Qing into the mansion, and after some thought, finally let the Yue soldiers observe the shadow of the "Yue Nu Sword", and the swordsmanship of Yue Guo has greatly improved.
Under the guidance of the skillful craftsman Xue Zhu, he cast 10,000 sharp swords, and when the conditions were ripe, he broke the Wu army in one go.
The historical framework on which the above "Yue Nu Sword" depends, as for the general context, is to describe this process step by step from the perspective of the scholar Fan Li.
As the minister of the Yue Kingdom, Fan Li presided over the competition of Wu Yue swordsmen, and saw the sharpness of the sword of Wu and the bravery of the swordsman.
That is, the beginning that is not favored by Bai Ming.
After that, the quite wonderful "Nine Techniques of Destroying Wu" and "Xue Candle on the Sword" were all selectively ignored by Bai Ming, who had reached a dead end.
But when the eight swordsmen of Wu State were drunk, they rampaged in the bazaar, doing evil, and sang in unison: "My sword is sharp and the enemy is fearless, and my sword is swift and the enemy is leaderless......"
When the saber was tense, Wu Shi, who was the leader, looked up to the sky and laughed, and said: "We came to Huiji from Gusu, because we didn't want to go back alive, and to see how many military horses you want to use in Yue Palace to kill the eight swordsmen of my Wu Kingdom. When the last word "shi" was spoken, there was a long roar, and eight people stood together back to back with swords in their hands at the same time.
When the eight people were murderous, although they were evil, they couldn't hide the tragedy of seeing death as home.
This is the first small ** in the full text, Bai Ming couldn't help but clench his fists when he saw this, his palms were slippery and greasy, and he was full of sweat.
Then the shepherdess Ah Qing appeared, and defeated the Eight Swordsmen with a bamboo pole, and the mysterious swordsmanship was really breathtaking under the backdrop of the Eight Swordsmen of Wu State.
Bai Ming has been completely immersed in the world of "Yue Nu Sword" at this moment, and he can't extricate himself, the fetters of Fan Li and Xi Shi, the soldiers of Yue Guo observe the Yue Nu swordsmanship, Ah Qing and Bai Gonggong...... The subsequent episodes did not disappoint him either.
After reading the whole story, there was an uproar in his heart, which could not be calmed down for a long time, and the abnormal thoughts that existed before were long gone, but then a new problem followed.
After reading it for the first time, Bai Ming found that with his own ability, it was almost difficult to comment on such a work, but if he didn't say anything, in front of Chen Feng, the junior, wouldn't he, the editor-in-chief, "drop the price" and get home?
The second time, he read "Yue Nu Sword" with an appreciative eye, trying to find something to say, and suddenly felt that even the first large section of the fight description was wonderful, and the more he looked at it, the more fascinated he became, and the more he felt that his comments were not enough to describe.
Third, fourth...... He was trapped, a little enchanted.
"I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain."
When Bai Ming saw it for the fifth time, he understood this truth, and he was destined to not be able to comment on "Yue Nu Sword" in this state.
When he figured this out, according to him, more than an hour had passed since he opened the "Yue Nu Sword".
After all, from the third time, his purpose is not just to "read the book", but to appreciate it word by word.
"Huh, what about people?" Bai Ming raised his head, his eyes were empty, and there was still Chen Feng's figure.
He stood up, stiff and stiff, and he leaned on his desk and walked out of the office.
He hadn't gone far before he heard a loud exclamation.
Bai Ming followed the sound and walked over.
But in another office, a group of editors gathered together and formed a circle.
In the middle of the circle, Chen Feng was holding a paper manuscript in his hand, shaking his head and his lips moving up and down, as if he was saying something.
