As usual, after a novel is finished, write a little summary. The essay "Password" is the most detached work I have ever written that has allowed me to wander outside the world of fiction. The first half was fine, but since the middle and late stages, I haven't been able to integrate into this world. The text is isolated, the characters are isolated, the story is isolated, in simple words, I just can't find the feeling.

In fact, this panic has been around for a long time, and since the completion of the "Hades" series, I have fallen into a strange circle of self-questioning and self-exploration. I want to break through, but I don't want to lose it. Later, I was completely lost and couldn't find the sense of language, especially the sense of language in the first "What is the Underworld". It is said that the more you write, the more refined it should be, and now there is indeed some progress in terms of characters, plots, and worldview, but it has lost the most reassuring and comfortable sense of language for the creator, which is a very panicked thing.

This sense of loss continues to the article "Password", which almost becomes a chasm and is completely revealed.

When I first conceived this novel, I wanted to make some transformation attempts, and supernatural novels have developed so far, saying that the niche is not a minority, saying that the public is not yet recognized, and there is often a danger of hitting the line, after all, it is now an era that is not allowed to become a refinement. Constrained everywhere, the writing is not pleasant, and the mother is scolded when I read it, but the situation is like this, I can only make a dojo in a snail shell, and try to find a breakthrough from other angles.

So, what to do?

Nowadays, we avoid talking about the word "ghost", which is something that human nature needs, which is a metaphysical impulse, and there is a term in academic terms, called transcendent existence. Human beings experience their own finitude through transcendent experiences. Now that all the demons and monsters are not allowed to touch, what should I do, there is something Wesley often does, that is, to dump the "aliens". Aliens are an extension of our scientifically legitimate worldview. To put it bluntly, aliens are legitimate, ghosts are not.

Feng Shui is not called Feng Shui is called magnetic field, ghosts are not called ghosts are called energy, and supernatural experiences are not called supernatural experiences.

I studied aliens for a while, and I was in a cold sweat and my heart was pounding, why? In the West, a huge body of science has emerged about the theory of aliens. Note that the system I am talking about does not refer to the soft and hard science fiction that we are familiar with, such as space opera, Star Wars, the Three-Body Problem, etc., but "Chronicles of the Earth", the three-eyed woman of the moon, the moon base, the lizard people, and high-dimensional spirituality, which have begun to infiltrate into our daily life, not only imaginary, but also a kind of plausible and true, right around you and me, you and I can't see it, and think about it again and again.

This is a dark theology that belongs to modern civilization.

I was shocked, because describing the feeling of aliens is not what we often call "ghosts".

In Password, I wanted to infiltrate this kind of thing. In fact, whether it is a ghost in the traditional context, a lizardman in the modern context, or a Cthulhu that is now sought after, in fact, it expresses a human fear of transcendent experience, an indescribable dark state.

It's a pity that this profound experience was realized at the end of the full text of "The Password".

Now that the supernatural is tight, how to transform and how to break through, this idea and general direction are correct. One of the most critical questions is how to use the language that is most comfortable for you to make this dark aesthetic land, so that readers can accept it without barriers.

The article "Password" is written in such isolation and self-reflection, firstly, the story is in the attempt, and there is no unified aesthetic tone, which makes me lose my sense of language and seem a little broken; The second is that behind the story is a huge worldview, from space to time, spanning very large, which makes me overstretched to write. Later, in the middle and late stages of the novel, due to work and other factors, it was impossible to put in the energy well, which was also the reason for some collapse.

Hit the bottom before you can rebound. Just when I was confused, I tried to create "There is a Little Teahouse in the Rivers and Lakes", the story structure is not complicated, the suspense and strange talk are adventurous, it is surprisingly comfortable to write, and I have found a little bit of the feeling of creating the "Hades" series! That's right, if you are interested, you can go to the Himalayas and listen to it.

"There is a Small Teahouse in the Rivers and Lakes" still follows the story world of "Hades", and many masters such as Xie Ling, Li Damin, and Pi Nanshan will take turns to interpret the excitement of the rivers and lakes.

Thank you friends for your continued support and tolerance, and the excitement continues.
