Laying paper, grinding ink, lifting the pen, everything is so smooth, and then ...... Li Ling was stunned at the table, and it was only then that he realized that he hadn't thought about what novel to write, or what to copy, which was really embarrassing. Li Yue'er saw that he made such an arrangement after returning home, and she was also full of hope, and watched with her eyes shining, and then saw her brother just stunned there, and he didn't leave a single note for a long time.

In fact, it's not that Li Ling can't think of the content of the novel, on the contrary, he thinks too much. After all, he traveled from the era of the information explosion, and he didn't dare to say that he had watched many novels, films and television dramas before, there were always hundreds of them, and most of them were high-quality products, at least for people in this era, they were absolute high-quality products.

But the problem is that it's not easy for him to pick one out and copy it out now. One is the limitation of the times and aesthetics, after all, the three views of the ancients and people hundreds of years later are completely different, and there are many taboos.

It wasn't until the two really wanted to write that Li Ling sadly discovered that there was a huge difference between writing a novel and doing accounts, and it was very different from writing advertising words.

Li Yue'er on the side waited for a long time, but she didn't see Li Ling's next move, and she couldn't hold back, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, what are you going to write?" ”

"Hmm...... I want to try to write a novel, but I've heard that once you write a novel that is recognized, the income is not low. Li Ling replied casually, his mind still spinning, thinking about what he should write the most appropriately.

Listening to Boss Nagu, now readers in the Hengzhou Mansion are very interested in novels in the style of asking for immortals, so can I write a novel in this style? "Ethereal Journey"? "Zhu Xian"? …… After thinking about a few popular Xianxia online texts in later generations, Li Ling immediately gave them to PASS, he had read all these books, and they were indeed wonderful, but the problem was that it was too long, and after a long time, he really couldn't remember the content.

Li Ling, who has already been disliked by others, has flipped through a few books in the bookstore in his spare time these days, thinking that he can copy one, but I am afraid that this thing will not be liked by Boss Gu.

It must be classic, it must be impressive, and it must be able to echo the aesthetic habits of the ancients...... When these requirements are combined, the choice is really not so wide. Li Ling is not a senior book lover, so he is naturally more embarrassed, and after thinking about it carefully, he finally came up with an idea: "Yes, I can try to write classical masterpieces!" "If you think about it carefully, there is no trace of novels such as "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Water Margin" that have been handed down to future generations.

But then the problem came again, these famous books are good, but Li Ling read them a few times in junior high and high school, and then they were put on the bookshelf and never turned over, and now the general plot may be remembered, but it is still difficult to copy it. And if it were to be rewritten, he would have asked himself if he had the ability to do so. Of course, the more important thing is that the Water Margin Journey to the West or something actually has taboo content in it, and it has been banned several times, Li Ling really doesn't want to take this risk.

"Ask the immortal and ask, cultivate the immortal, the immortal...... Classical novel ......" After Li Ling put the relevant keywords together and searched for them, a name suddenly popped up in his mind - "Fengshen Bang", that is, "Romance of the Fengshen"!

As a post-90s generation, Li Ling also watched the classic TV series that told ancient Chinese myths and stories in Roman and Greek style costumes when he was a child, and even now he can still report the names of some of the main characters, which can only see the charm of this work.

But at the same time, Li Ling, who has read the original work, also has to say that Xu Zhonglin's novel is more than one grade worse than other novels in terms of storyline and character creation. But this book also has its own great point, that is, the entire framework worldview is extremely well built, so that people can enter the story at once. What is the interception of teachings, what is the war of the gods, what is the martial king...... It's all top-notch canonical ideas, and the story line can be retold even now.

Obviously, "Romance of the Gods" is not a novel characterized by writing skills, and it is quite a good match for Li Ling, a newcomer to the author. Moreover, most of the battles between immortals in this story are the highlights, which are obviously much stronger than asking for immortals. You cultivators are still thinking about how to work hard to cultivate into immortals, and my snap is a battle between various great gods and golden immortals, and the pattern is naturally more than one grade higher.

At this time, Yue'er's voice sounded again: "Then brother, why don't you write yet?" If it was really written, would we be able to eat fried dough sticks every day? ”

Li Ling laughed, and touched the girl's hair again: "Yes, there are not only fritters, but also more delicious food." Just watch from the sidelines, and don't disturb me. ”

"Uh-huh!" Li Yue'er immediately nodded vigorously, closed her mouth tightly, but her eyes continued to stare at the paper in front of Li Ling with curiosity, waiting for him to write a novel that would sell well. In the little girl's heart, her brother is omnipotent and can easily do anything.

At this time, Li Ling no longer had the heart to take care of his sister's thoughts, and with a slight flick of his wrist, a neat column of fly-headed small blocks appeared on the paper: "But it was said that hundreds of millions of years ago, heaven and earth were not divided, and it was chaos." Suddenly, a giant named Pangu was born in one day, and the name was Pangu...... "Since you want to write about the gods, then start writing from the beginning of the world, put the Chinese legends and myths into a book, plus his understanding of some ancient myths from the perspective of later generations, presumably the connotation of this "Romance of the Gods" should be stronger than the original one.

In the next few days, as long as Li Ling was free, whether at home or in the bookstore, he would continue to write novels. The content of this new version of "Romance of the Gods" has also begun to increase, from Pangu opening the world to Nuwa creating people; From Fuxi's deduction of gossip, to the Great War of Emperor Chiyou, and then the ups and downs of the Yao Shunyu and Xia Shang dynasties.

It wasn't until three chapters later that he got to the point, entering the plot where King Su lost his way and Nuwa sent the nine-tailed fox to confuse him. If it is placed in the later generations, such a novel that only talks about the structure of the world view will naturally face a street end, but in the current slow-paced era, there is no such concern.

At least when Li Ling showed Li Yue'er the first few chapters she had written, she was fascinated by it, and shouted that she had never seen such a grandiose and interesting mythological story. Just from her expression, Li Ling could see that Li Yue'er did not praise her much because of the relationship between the two parties, but was really obsessed with this novel.

This greatly increased Li Ling's confidence, and it took him a few days to write the first ten chapters, until the king was bewitched by Daji, and he went against the grain, forced the queen to death, forced his two sons away, and at the same time the important person Jiang Ziya was ordered by the master to go down the mountain, more than 100,000 words, counted as one volume.

In a sense, after cutting out the poems in the original book, the progress of this new Fengshen and the old Fengshen is almost the same. However, according to Li Ling's conception, the next second volume of the story will be much slower than the original book, and he will have to create several protagonists, such as Nezha, such as Wen Zhong Wen Taishi, so as to make the value of the whole book higher.

And just as he continued to write books and run a bookstore, April was over, and the beginning of May was about to pass completely, and the weather was slowly getting hotter. In the afternoon of this day, taking advantage of the fact that there were no guests in the bookstore, Li Ling took the manuscript and came to the Gujia Bookstore again, wanting Gu Yuezi to take a look.

The old shopkeeper of the bookstore who received him immediately smiled and said: "Li Gongzi is really doing a prosperous business, and he has sold all the books in less than half a month?" I wonder what books I want to go back to this time? ”

"The shopkeeper misunderstood, I didn't come down today to buy books, but I wanted to talk to Boss Gu about another deal."

"Oh? But what kind of business is it? ”

"Publish a book. I heard that your bookstore has a high price to buy new books for publication, so I wrote a novel these days, but I don't know if I can let Boss Gu help me get by. As he spoke, Li Ling put the package he was carrying in front of the other party, and when he untied it, he revealed a thick stack of manuscripts inside.

The shopkeeper was slightly surprised: "Li Gongzi came up with this idea after that time, and then wrote so much?" ”

"Exactly, what's the problem?" Li Ling was puzzled. In his opinion, it is not too difficult to write 100,000 words in more than half a month, after all, those powerful Internet writers in later generations will be like drinking soup every day.

Outside the store, Xu is wind was dazzled, and a passer-by covered his face with wide sleeves and quickly passed by the bookstore......

And the shopkeeper's expression became more and more strange, and he couldn't tell Li Lingzhi directly, those who write books for the bookstore usually only take three months to write a volume of novels of more than 100,000 words, and it is very unfavorable for you to write a volume so quickly. could only cough lowly: "In this case, please ask Li Gongzi to go into the backyard to explain in detail, my master is inside." ”

In the hall behind, Li Ling saw Gu Yuezi again, and when the latter knew his intention this time, he was also slightly surprised, but he still responded politely: "Since it is Li Gongzi's masterpiece, the contemptible person is really interested in watching it, and it will definitely not disappoint me." ”

Of course, only he knows how much this is true. In Gu Yuezi's mind, Li Ling was young, although he had some business acumen, but his knowledge was not enough, and this book was still written in a hurry, so naturally it would not be good, so before he could read the content carefully, he began to think in his heart about how to refuse Li Ling's contribution tactfully later, so as not to hurt the feelings of both parties.

After a while, Gu Yuezi lowered her head to read the manuscript, while Li Ling waited quietly to the side......
