Chapter 43: The Completion of the Book
"Husband, go to bed early, I have to get up early tomorrow."
As soon as he put his five-year-old daughter to sleep, Li Ran yawned and whispered. Tomorrow is the New Year's Day holiday, and the two have already planned to go back to their parents' house, and they must get up early, otherwise the highway out of the city will be blocked.
"Well, you go to sleep first."
Husband Zhao Zhihuo changed into pajamas and said softly, "I'll wait a while...... The Condor is about to be updated, and I'll fall asleep after reading today's chapter. ”
"Well, don't be too late."
Li Ran also knows that her husband is chasing this novel, in fact, she occasionally reads it, and it is indeed very exciting. And my husband is under so much pressure at work, it's nothing to read novels.
Lying comfortably on the bed, Zhao Zhihuo picked up his mobile phone and looked at it, and sure enough, it was updated.
……
…… After Guo Jing and Huang Rong saluted the body of the Great Khan, they said goodbye to Tuolei and returned south on the same day. The two of them saw the skeletons and white bones scattered among the long grass along the way, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, thinking that although the two of them were harmonious, they could be called no regrets, but the suffering of the world was deep, and they didn't know when they would be peaceful. Precisely:
There are embers of the fire, and there are only a few poor villages.
???? No one fights for dawn, and the cold sand under the waning moon!
End of book.
After reading this chapter, Zhao Zhihuo couldn't help but sigh: "Good writing...... Heroes, heroes, what kind of people are heroes? Genghis Khan built a huge empire that he never had in his life, but he also slaughtered countless people...... Hey? Hey?! Hey?!! ”
Suddenly reacting, Zhao Zhihuo jumped up from the bed: "What's the matter?" The end of the book?!! ”
"Zhao Zhihuo, what nerves do you have?!"
Zhao Zhihuo's actions made his wife, who was about to go to bed, very dissatisfied, and lowered her voice and shouted: "The old lady finally put her daughter to sleep, if you wake her up, I won't be done with you!" ”
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Hurriedly posing as a grandson, Zhao Zhihuo carefully looked at the girl sleeping in the middle of the big bed, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart - the little girl frowned, but she really didn't wake up.
But after a sigh of relief, endless anger followed.
Why is the whole book over?!
As a fan of standard chivalrous novels, thirty-six-year-old Zhao Zhihuo can be sure that The Legend of the Condor Heroes is the best chivalrous novel he has ever read in his life...... No, to be precise, it should be the best martial arts novel he has ever read, as the author Lao Bai explained. Of course, there is only such a martial arts novel now...... Of course, it doesn't matter!
The important thing is, why is the Condor Archery finished with just one million words?!
Zhao Zhihuo can't figure it out!
Look at those novels on the Shuxiang Chinese Internet, except for the one that no one reads the eunuch early, which one is not two or three million or even four or five million words? Condor shooting is only a million words, how can it end? How old are Guo Jing and Huang Rong?
Once again, confirming that those three words really existed, Zhao Zhihuo's heart even hurt.
Is it easy for an old reader in his thirties to find a book that he likes to read? Nowadays, urban romance, science fiction, mystery or Western fantasy novels, even military and sports novels are in vogue almost everywhere on the site, but chivalrous fiction has completely declined. Now that I finally have a good book, and it's obviously still a classic of the founding of the sect, that's it?
"Is it because it's free?"
After pondering for a long time, a thought suddenly flashed in Zhao Zhihuo's heart.
From beginning to end, the book has always insisted on being free, which has an excellent reputation among readers. After all, the collection of Condor has already exceeded 200,000, and now there are 230,000, and if it is put on the shelves, the subscription should be at least more than 100,000 - to write such a wonderful novel, the subscription ratio must be high!
But if you want to charge a fee, we don't object to it!
Thinking that the novel he was thinking about every day would be finished in just one million words, and he was about to fall into a situation where he had no books to read, Zhao Zhihuo couldn't suppress the fire in his heart, and he suddenly came out.
"No, you have to scold Lao Bai!"
Thinking of the anger, Zhao Zhihuo immediately opened the book review area of Condor shooting, he wanted to give full play to his famous poisonous tongue in the company, and denounce the author, if he could make Lao Bai take back his life and continue to write......
"Uh......"
As soon as he opened the book review area, Zhao Zhihuo was dumbfounded.
What's the situation?!
Because it is automatically updated, the posts in the book review section are appearing at a rate of several times per second, and the content is all serious dissatisfaction with the novel - there are so many readers who follow the Condor nowadays that it is an exaggeration to say that a tenth of it comes out.
"Lao Bai, if you come out, I promise not to kill you!"
"Big brother, uncle, uncle, why is it finished? How old is Guo Jingcai? You abandoned two people before they even got married? Everyone Huang Rong treated Guo Jing like that, can you take some responsibility?!! ”
"Wow...... It's done, so what am I still alive for?! What's the meaning of life?! ”
……
Looking at the posts that came out one after another, or scolded, or complained, or pleading, Zhao Zhihuo's original anger was completely calmed down, because he suddenly thought of one thing: Since the Condor issued the book, except for a text similar to the setting set in the work, who has ever seen Lao Bai respond to readers' questions?
Never come to the book review area, never add any groups, it's almost a label of Lao Bai!
"Alas!"
In just a few seconds, Zhao Zhihuo suddenly felt a little excited. The author has always released novels for free, and he has never communicated with readers, obviously not caring about money! For such a lofty god, even if a group of readers are happy in the book review area, what's the use?
"Sleep, sleep!"
Throwing the mobile phone on the bedside table in a boring way, Zhao Zhihuo suddenly covered the quilt.
But......
About a dozen seconds later, an arm crept out of the quilt and touched the abandoned phone. After all, he couldn't help the anxiety in his heart, and Zhao Zhihuo opened the novel page of the book The Legend of the Condor Heroes again......
……
If he knew Zhao Zhihuo's thoughts, Sun Peng would definitely cry out for wrongdoing!
Who's clear?!
Who doesn't want a manuscript fee?!!
Who doesn't care about money anymore?!!!
I'm a traverser, and I don't have a sense of accomplishment when I am a porter, so what am I trying to do if I don't want money? Am I idle to type a million words?
Hum! Not for more small money?
Look at the current results of Condor shooting, if I put two or three hundred thousand words on the shelves for a fee, will so many people pay attention to a declining novel section? Will there be more than 200,000 collections? Will there still be so many readers who will scream at me in the book review section?
Naive!
And a million-word novel, is it really very little?
Belch......
For the average web novel, it is indeed a bit little. But if you look at the entire structure of the Condor Shooting, spanning twenty or thirty years, there are the top layers of the rivers and lakes such as the Five Uniques, and the bottom layer of the Seven Monsters of the South of the Yangtze River; There are small scenes like Guiyunzhuang, and there are also big scenes of the Mongolian army going out, what more bicycles!
It can only be said that the other novels are too watery and not of high quality.
Of course, according to the habit, our travelers will definitely not go to the book review area to read the comments, when the last chapter of the Condor is released two hours later, the moment when the New Year is about to be crossed, that is, the most lively time in the book review area, he clicked the release button again in the author's background, and sent out a finished testimonial that had been prepared long ago - of course, in this testimonial with only a few crosses, a link to the video must be added.
At the same time, Lin Lin also clicked a button with some trembling.
The sisters and brothers, who are only a few kilometers apart, set their sights on the early morning of the New Year at the same time, but their moods are completely different. One of the old gods is there, and there is no half of the wave in his heart, while the other is nervous and full of anticipation for the new year......
