Swordsman Magazine, Editorial Department.

Because there are more famous contributions in this issue, and there are more relatively excellent works, the next issue of "Swordsman" is basically full.

Xu Wenle looked up at the clock hanging on the wall at this time, and there was still more than half an hour before he got off work, so Editor Xu picked up a manuscript on the table and began to review it with a more casual mentality: The Blood and Rain of Online Games.

When I just saw the title of this work, Xu Wenle's heart was a little disdainful, in this era, computers have not been widely popularized, so the concept of "online games" has not yet appeared, if you remove the online game, it will be called blood rain rivers and lakes, in Xu Wenle's eyes, it will add some points:

"On the last day of the Earth Era, the internal test area of China's "Jianghu".

The West Lake is thousands of miles away, and the green water floats in small boats.

The green willows of the long causeway, the surrounding scenery is very beautiful, the golden sun is shrouded in the body, and the muscles and bones inside can be warm and comfortable through the outer clothes.

The young man was dressed in black, with black hair and black eyes, but his face was fair and delicate. At this time, standing at the bow of the boat with a jade pot and cup, standing in the wind and pouring himself a drink, endless scholarly demeanor, endless idle spirit.

"I knew everything was fake, but it made me feel so real. The so-called 'dream-like, non-false and non-real' is nothing more than that. "Such an inexplicable mutter, Shi Yi raised his glass and drank another glass of mellow wine, clearly feeling the spicy pleasure when the wine slipped over the taste buds on the tip of the tongue, and the heat and warmth when it slid through the intestines and into the stomach......

Is writing important in writing?

In the age of the Internet, the role of writing has been weakened to a certain extent, but before the Internet era really arrives, writing is very important in the eyes of a review editor.

Because in this era, everyone's theme is basically the same: martial arts.

Similarly, when describing a story, an author with good writing is an author with a bad writing style, who writes more comfortably, has more pleasure to read, and even the kind of artistic conception and rhyme that comes out between the lines of the clever person can introduce the reader into that world.

Zhu Peng's writing is not amazing, but it can also be called warm and spicy.

In the warm sunshine and spicy liquor, Xu Wenle was dragged into the blue water lake, a small boat. He is going to the West Lake Fengyun Tower for a decisive battle!

The first volume of the online game Blood Rain Jianghu begins with a wonderful Armageddon, with Shi Yi, the strongest disciple of the Wudang Sect on one side, and the blood of the blood knife demon sect on the other.

Since the open beta of the Chaos Era, Wudang has been a garbage sect that has been spurned by everyone, because it is the first sword sect in the world, so Wudang has strict requirements for the martial arts foundation of his disciples.

If it is a Jianghu boxing gym, the basic martial arts are about twenty levels, and cultivating to the realm of "first glimpse of the door" is enough to practice low-level martial arts above the basic martial arts.

Even do some hidden tasks, such as buying wine for the gym master, such as bribing the gym master, and even in the basic martial arts, you don't need to consume experience, you can directly learn more powerful low-level martial arts. Although, the gym master will nag you twice.

If it is the Evil Demon Left Path, the basic martial arts are about forty levels, and cultivating to the realm of "a little success" is enough to practice the intermediate martial arts of the sect, such as the Star Constellation, the Blood Knife, the Ming Sect, the Five Poisons and so on.

Moreover, the martial arts of the various sects of the Evil Left Dao are often lethal and powerful, which also makes players in the rivers and lakes rush to it.

Playing games, don't you just want to be cool?

More advanced and powerful martial arts skills, of course, the sooner you learn them, the better.

Righteous Sect, Wuyue Sword School: Songshan, Huashan, Hengshan, Taishan, Hengshan.

Generally speaking, the higher the prestige of the sect, the more difficult it is to learn advanced martial arts, and the higher the level of basic martial arts in learning advanced martial arts.

If the Songshan faction wants to learn the low-level martial arts of the sect, it needs to cultivate the basic martial arts to level seventy, and the master will grant advanced martial arts, and the Huashan faction is also seventy levels, Hengshan, Taishan, and Hengshan, and the basic martial arts of the disciples of the sect can be cultivated to the realm of sixty levels of "familiar and streaming", and they can practice advanced martial arts.

However, Shaolin and Wudang, these two strange flowers on the rivers and lakes, the basic martial arts are not cultivated to the realm of eighty levels of "entering the house", you want to learn more advanced martial arts, the master will ignore you at all, and will even punish you and deduct your sect contributions.

This is not the most disgusting, the most disgusting thing is that the basic martial arts of the Jianghu sect are basically the same, but Shaolin and Wudang have played the basic martial arts...... Shaolin's basic martial arts are Luohan Boxing, and Wudang's basic martial arts are twenty-one swords, both of which are big eaters of experience, so much so that during the public beta period of the rivers and lakes, many demon left path players have learned an intermediate martial arts, and many of the disciples of these two major schools have not yet completed their basic martial arts.

Fortunately, the Shaolin disciples are not allowed to go down the mountain to the rivers and lakes unless they have a special sect task.

The first sword sect in the world, Wudang does not have such strict regulations, because it is Taoism that is respected, Taoism is natural, and practice is a personal matter, so many Wudang disciples roam the rivers and lakes, because of the low level of martial arts, they are abused in various ways, and for a while, Wudang Sword has almost become synonymous with weakness and has become a laughing stock in the rivers and lakes.

However, there is one person who is different: Wudang Sword Qi Hall Shi Yi.

The same is to cultivate Wudang Sword, since this guy cultivated martial arts intermediate swordsmanship, he killed the crazy knife head Tuo, cleared the desert horse thief, and even killed the twenty-eight thieves, and almost swept the top ten of Mingjiao (the top ten players of Mingjiao prestige) with the power of one person, in the period after Shi Yi appeared, the first half of the time when the rivers and lakes talked about the "Wudang Sword" thought of weakness, and the second half of the rivers and lakes talked about the "Wudang Sword" thought of Shi Yi.

This person's swordsmanship is domineering and masculine, but in the eyes of players with appraisal skills, he cultivates the intermediate swordsmanship of the two martial arts of Finger Wrapping and Rouyun, and there are no other high-level swordsmanship.

Compared with traditional martial arts, the blood and rain rivers and lakes of online games have completed a double crushing in terms of creativity and richness.

Almost every ten sentences,There must be something new,There are eye-catching settings,What's even more terrifying is that there is no sense of youthfulness in this author's writing.,Although the story is set in the game world.,But the kind unique to martial arts:" Chaowen Shentan Jiaolong fat, one more draw the sword and two more." The heroic spirit came to his face, which made Xu Wenle, an old editor who had read thousands of books, feel numb and shiver with refreshment.

The battle of the West Lake Fengyun Tower, even more fists to the flesh, recruiting blood, making people see the blood passionately, the sea of blood is the rich second generation in reality, hire a big guild to plunder all kinds of resources for themselves, elixirs to gain strength, secret methods to strengthen the body, and more advanced martial arts, after these things are superimposed, the person of the blood sea is already standing at the pinnacle of the rivers and lakes.

With high-level equipment and high-level martial arts, the strength of the internal force almost exceeded one-third of Shi Yi's, showing a one-sided crushing trend.

However, at this time, the effect of the Wudang Sect of the First Sword Sect in the world attaching importance to basic martial arts was revealed: the data attribute was the data attribute, and the actual use attribute was the actual use attribute.

The Chaos Age virtual network in China is built against the background of ancient mythology and ancient martial arts, and each entrant will calculate eleven basic attributes according to their own qualities, namely:

Constitution, Root, Strength, Speed, Agility.

Understanding, rationality, sensibility, courage, charm, blessing.

Except for the implicit attribute of blessing, the other basic attributes are explicit, each with its own role and significance. Also, it's important to note that panel properties are not the same as the ones that players can actually use...... In other words, with the level of effort of the vast majority of people, it is simply not up to the point of competing for talent.

Basic martial arts, low-level martial arts, intermediate-level martial arts, high-level martial arts, top-level martial arts, and peerless martial arts, in addition to peerless internal martial arts, low-level martial arts to top-level martial arts, almost all of them do not provide personal attribute bonuses, and basic martial arts are the best way to hone personal attributes for actual use.

Shi Yi's first hole card in the world is his Wudang basic martial arts "Twenty-one Swords" cultivated to the ninety-level "perfect" swordsmanship realm.

With Wudang's basic internal strength, you can breathe seven swords in one breath, and slash out twenty-one swords that have reached your peak eight or nine layers of power in one breath...... Such swordsmanship, of course, domineering, of course, fierce, masculine, fierce, unstoppable!

The sword qi is vertical and horizontal, and the sword light is flying.

Because it was during the open beta period, Shi Yi did not practice Wudang's low-level martial arts, but directly skipped and practiced the intermediate-level Wudang martial arts, so he even surpassed the high-level blood knife technique of the Boundless Sea of Blood in the level of martial arts.

Finally, the swords struck each other, the long sword in his hand was knocked away, and the sword came to the head...... Xu Wenle, who had completely fallen into the world of the article, was so nervous that his face was flushed.

"Choke!"

smashed the fierce sword light that slashed at the oncoming sword light with the back of his right hand protected by a steel plate bracer, and at the same time, the green steel long sword that flew out actually reversed like a whirlwind: the realistic version of the Tai Chi Sword Killing Move-Huitian Three Absolute Sword!

On the same day, on the West Lake Fengyun Tower of "Jianghu", Shi Yi of the Sword Qitang took the sword and made a brazen shot, and killed the first demon in the rivers and lakes with the thirty-third move of "Imperial Sword Flying Whirlwind", and the blood sea was endless, and he became famous in the rivers and lakes.

In reality, when Xu Wenle exhaled and finished reading the first volume .........of the bloody rain rivers and lakes, he had already made a decision in his heart: this book must be signed.

Because...... I really want to look at the back!

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

"Zhu Peng, there is your letter!"

Because the town key No. 2 middle school is the best high school in this area, many out-of-town families have to send their children to the town No. 2 middle school, so the class leader also has a task, which is to go to the mailroom every day to ask if there are any students' letters.

But as the squad leader, He Jie received Zhu Peng's letter for the first time, and the payment of the letter seemed to be a large unit in another place, which made He Jie more or less curious.

When she arrived in the class, she found that Zhu Peng's guy was not there, He Jie couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart but it was difficult to open other people's letters, the little girl glanced and found Xia Xue.

In the class, it is not a secret that Zhu Peng and Xia Xue are close, because marriage is generally early in this world, so there is no phenomenon of early love in colleges and universities.

"Xiaoxue, the letter from your pig, you are both local, who will send him a letter from out of town?"

"Ah, Brother Zhu's letter, I don't know, tear it open and take a look. If He Jie, the dead eighth woman, was not there, Xia Xue would not tear up Zhu Peng's letter anyway, but now she is looking at it in front of her, the girl also wants to be faced, if she doesn't even dare to open her boyfriend's letter, she knows what the little eighth woman in front of her will do.

After thinking about it, Xia Xue tore open the envelope and slid out a not thin book from it: "Swordsman", this book Xia Xue and He Jie still know each other, many boys are fascinated to read it, once they are caught by the teacher, they will be beaten and scolded, but they are still happy to do it.

In addition, there were two pieces of paper, and Xia Xue and He Jie each picked up one. Xia Xue opened the reply letter: Reply to the author: Wild Salted Fish 4.

Dear author, your work "Online Game: Blood and Rain" has been successfully submitted to this magazine, and I will now mail you with the sample book and remittance slip, because of the excellent quality of your work, the manuscript fee has been increased from 1000 words to 150 words per 1,000 words for new authors.

The first volume of your work "Online Game: Blood and Rain" has a total of more than 86,000 words and a total manuscript fee of 12,900 yuan.

I hope to receive more excellent works from you in the future.

Shanghai Swordsman Publishing House.

When she finished reading this reply letter, Xia Xue felt that her mouth was dry, but the next moment she felt bad and suddenly raised her head.

However, it was still too late, and He Jie, the squad leader who had never seen any big money in such a big life, had to exclaim: "Ten thousand twelve!"

Yes, the eyes of the whole class converged.

In the nineties of the Ming Republic, although the money was relatively gross, a working family and a couple added up to only more than 5,000 yuan a month, more than 12,000 yuan, which is definitely an "astronomical" level for most high school students.

What's more, it's not just about money, the atmosphere of the school is still relatively pure, and for a student, it is a great honor to be able to publish his own articles on a reading material of this grade as "Swordsman".

When Zhu Peng returned to the classroom, he could clearly feel that everyone's eyes were different from him, the boys were more or less impressed, envious and jealous, the girls' eyes were like autumn waves, eighteen no ugly girls, and the faces of teenage girls were full of collagen, especially the class leader He Jie.

Zhu Peng felt that this guy looked at his gaze, and after a bunch of chaotic symbols, he finally froze into two (*¥_¥*) money characters.

（...... It's the swordsman's reply letter, right? It seems that the manuscript fee is still a lot, otherwise everyone wouldn't be like this. Looking at He Jie, and then at Xia Xue who was sitting by the window, looking down and not daring to look at himself, Zhu Peng had already analyzed and deduced the general situation of this matter after a little deduction in his heart.

Zhu Peng didn't say anything, and he wasn't unhappy, he calmly sat back and opened the desk, and sure enough, he found the envelope and reply letter that had been opened, as well as the remittance slip of 12,900 yuan.

That afternoon, Zhu Peng did not talk to Xia Xue, making Xia Xue think that Xiao Zhu was angry with him, and he was so aggrieved that he hated He Jie in his heart.

"I won't let her tear it down, she will let me tear it down...... I just cried and cried, Xia Xue's words suddenly couldn't go on, at this moment she only felt that the inside of her chest was beating violently, for a long time, but it seemed to be very short, and Xiao Zhu smiled evilly and retreated.

"Just pay me for it, and even if you pay it to me. The little face was swollen and red, as if she was drunk, Xia Xue was led by Zhu Peng and returned home in a daze.

Yin Yanping is a person who has come over, as soon as she looks at her girl, she knows that Xia Xue was in trouble by the shameless dead pig stinky boy opposite, originally thought that Yin Yanping was spicy, at this time she always had to kill the door to scold the Zhu family for a bloody head, but now it is different, now is an important time for her family to talk about her in-laws with the Cheng family, and at this time, it is not the slightest benefit to her daughter.

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, but Yin Yanping, who had nowhere to vent her belly of fire, suddenly picked up the broom on the side and jerked it on her daughter's ass so fiercely. The spanking is not bad, the more you beat, the bigger it gets, and it also increases the charm of the daughter's family.

"I'll fight, I'll kill you faceless little slut, you're about to get engaged, why are you still messing with that shameless stinky boy opposite, I'll beat you, I'll beat you to death!"

Xia Xue's skin and flesh are delicate, and people are afraid of pain, so she was beaten by her own mother and screamed, covering her ass and running away all over the house.

"I don't marry Cheng Wu, Brother Xiao Zhu is surnamed Zhu, and that Cheng Wu looks like a pig!"

"Marrying Cheng Wu, what's wrong with Cheng Wu, be honest after being ugly. Graduation will be the life of a young grandmother, you don't get married, you don't listen to my preparation to endure hardships for the rest of your life. ”

“...... I will only endure hardships for a lifetime if I listen to you, I will not marry Cheng Wu as a concubine for Brother Xiao Zhu, Cheng Wu has not graduated from junior high school, and Brother Xiao Zhu has earned more than 12,000 yuan in high school, which is more than the salary of you and my father in two months combined!"

Yin Yanping, who was angry, didn't listen to what her daughter was saying at all, and in a flying eagle style, she caught Xia Xue, who couldn't dodge like a rabbit, and pressed her leg to "pop" and fry bamboo shoots, so it was easy to get rid of her anger, and only then did she vaguely remember what Xia Xue had just said.

"Twelve thousand, what ten thousand?"

"Little Brother Zhu...... Brother Zhu gives ...... wrote a serial for "Swordsman", and people gave him a manuscript fee of 12,000. Sobbing and swallowing, Xia Xue still insisted on explaining the matter.

“............ That's not good, Xiaoxue, writing this kind of thing is unstable, can he earn 12,000 this month, can he earn 12,000 next month? Can you still earn 12,000 next month? Can you point to him to earn 12,000 and live the next half of his life?" After a moment of silence, Yin Yanping said this, in the final analysis, it is the old Cheng family's big truck and shop that make people feel more at ease.

However, in an instant, Yin Yanping's heart was also shaken, Zhu Peng, the second son of the old Zhu family opposite, is tall, handsome, and most importantly, he has grown up with his daughter since childhood, if the two can be together, this is undoubtedly stable and reassuring, but the family situation of the old Zhu family, his daughter married in the past, and must not be called as a small worker?

Life passed peacefully, periodicals such as "Swordsman" were published every half a month, and Zhu Peng's work: "Online Game: Blood and Rain" was continuously serialized in the periodicals.

If it is a pure rookie writer, even if he has a high degree of talent and spirituality, and he gets more than 10,000 yuan in the first draft, then his psychological pressure will be very great, and it will be very easy to become a gain and loss, the more he wants to write well, the more he can't write well, and finally his mentality collapses, and the whole article will be ruined.

However, what kind of person Zhu Peng is, he can fully enjoy his life, but he can also achieve Mount Tai collapse without changing his complexion, not only his self-control ability is outstanding, but also the cultivation of the spiritual realm is too high.

After getting the manuscript fee, Zhu Peng told his family about it, because there was evidence from the sample of "Swordsman" and the reply letter, so it was very easy to get the letter.

Before, between Zhu Peng's studies and Xia Xue, both of them were at the lower level of the midstream, and it was not easy to be admitted to an ordinary university, but now his son has found another way to fight his way, Zhu Youxi is of course relieved, and the so-called Lao Tzu is a hero and an old man.

It's just that the fat hero was kicked aside by Xu Xiaoyan in the next moment, and the old lady hugged her son's first meal and praised it, and then Zhu Peng's 12,000 yuan was gone, Xu Xiaoyan said: "I'll help you save it." ”

Just like the New Year's red envelope that has been saved from childhood to adulthood, it will not appear again from the moment it is taken off anyway.

Xu Xiaoyan and Yin Yanping on the other side of the door also had similar thoughts, this time they hit big luck, this money has to be saved well, and it can't be spent indiscriminately.

As for Zhu Peng, he doesn't care much, the way to make money has begun to open, as long as he continues to enter the account, his mother's psychological burden will naturally be put down.

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

Two months passed peacefully.

At the end of the first volume of the online game Blood Rain, Shi Yi, as the leader of the Earth Resistance Army, went through a lot of hardships to break through a growth house and rescue the teenagers who were raised by Pangu.

However, those teenagers who only think of the rebels are madmen, terrorists, and murderers.

Actually, think about it from another perspective, when you were in front of the article, one day you were suddenly pulled to a strange place, and then someone told you:

Everything you experienced in the first half of your life was false, the world has been ruled by artificial intelligence, and now, you have to pick up a gun and become a member of the Earth Resistance Army...... Bullets rained down, bloody battles, and endured all the hardships.

Finally?

How many people will choose to face reality and fight bloodily?

And how many people, after escaping that strange place, call 110 to tell the police that you have met a group of crazy people...... Even if you have doubts in your heart.

The strongest artificial intelligence, Pangu, it loves humans, but in its eyes, humans are still a group of monkeys that have not yet fully evolved, it spreads biochemical viruses, establishes growth hospitals, and imprisons sentient beings in the "Chaos Era", and the seeker is the birth of the ultimate new human being.

Facing the teenagers of the Growth Courtyard who pointed their weapons at him, Shi Yi covered the retreat of his teammates, while he himself was defeated and captured in despair.

Under the escort of the Mechanical Legion, Shi Yi was brought to Pangu: "You are much calmer than I thought, are you ready to face death?"

"Serving the country with my life, I have a clear conscience, and I am naturally calm. ”

"Oh, I thought you were so calm because of the miniature nuclear bomb in your belly. As he spoke, Pangu's humanoid form walked in front of Shi Yi, its palm was upright, and with the extraction of a large number of metal particles, a miniature nuclear bomb that had been controlled fell into its palm.

"How many times do I have to say it before you understand that I am not your enemy, and that I was born to protect humanity and promote its evolution. ”

"Throwing humanity into a virtual world, what do you call evolution?"

"Play is a conscious simulation activity of all young children (animals and people) according to the needs of life and work. And it seems to me that all human beings are still in the state of young children. ”

"I won't kill you, Shi Yi, your bravery, bloodiness, and strength are all extremely precious evolutionary factors. As a computer, I look forward to the day when a new human being is truly born. "Ending with the conversation between Shi Yi and Pangu, with the simplest sunglasses connector, this man really stepped into a world of flowers: blood and rain.

The most interesting thing about this online game is that the overall design is constantly dialectical and conflicting.

In the world of bloody rivers and lakes, all players are "immortal", but the bottom of the rivers and lakes is miserable and pitiful, tormenting people's hearts like purgatory, and also strengthening desires.

The middle level of the rivers and lakes is slightly better, but you need to keep putting in the effort to ensure that you and the people you care about will not fall back into the bottom of the rivers and lakes.

The upper world of the rivers and lakes is very beautiful: the joy of happiness and hatred, the wealth of the house full of gold, the heart of the beauty like jade, and the pride of the clouds...... The rivers and lakes are so beautiful. It's enough for anyone who has tasted it to never forget for the rest of their lives.

And, if it's in the real world, life is very short after all:

Rushing to success with all your might, or succeeding, or dying on the road to success, that moment may be painful, but more is also relief.

However, in the world of blood and rain rivers and lakes where you can live forever, people can live indefinitely, eternal and endless life, eternal youth, eternal and endless sinking, and there is no liberation.

Of course, it's just immortality in the world of blood and rain, once someone kills him and pops out of the virtual world, unless that person can find a data connector again in the apocalyptic environment, otherwise it won't be long before he dies for various reasons.

The whole book hovers between this crazy contradiction, which makes those who love this way extremely intoxicated.

In a short period of two months, Zhu Peng's studies have improved, his physical fitness has improved, and he has even left time to play instrumental music and learn guitar after publishing one by one. From Zhu Peng's point of view, these two months of life can be described as a rare peace and comfort, and it can be regarded as a vacation that Senior Sister Qinglian deliberately arranged for her senior brother.

But in fact, for his classmates, who had been secretly observing him, these two months were not at all peaceful.

In just two months, Zhu Peng will receive a letter every half a month, although now Xia Xue and He Jie will not open his envelope anymore, but everyone is already clear about the manuscript fee for each thousand words, this guy is serialized on "Swordsman" every half a month for more than 70,000 to 80,000 words, 15 words per 1,000, which means that this guy has more than 20,000 yuan a month!

In this era, no, even if it develops into the 21st century in a dozen years, a monthly income of more than 20,000 yuan is still a high-income class.

In fact, Zhu Peng's manuscript fee has risen to 18 words per thousand, and the sales of "Swordsman" have gradually become popular during this time, which can be said unceremoniously to be the credit of this "Online Game: Blood and Rain".

In fact, don't talk about this world, even in the Internet era of the earth, there was also this period, during that time, when the concept of online games was just emerging, any person, write a book, as long as the prefix of online games is hung, you can achieve website sales, and the demand has reached this level.

Of course, the daily progress of the gold is a lot of people, and many people in the class who think they have a good standard also try to start writing, and then contribute to "Swordsman", but the result is either almost, or it is a comprehensive street, and there is not even a person who receives a reply.

It's not the Internet era yet, and the layout of "Swordsman" is also limited, and the work of following the trend is too clear and eye-catching, not to mention that the writing is not at all good, even if you grasp the concept of "online game", you can't pass the level of review and editing.

Is it difficult to write?

It's not difficult, some people have no relevant training at all, write freely, are famous all over the world, and have an annual salary of hundreds of thousands.

In the 21st century of the earth era, there are 6.8 million registered authors on a certain website, and the population of a small number of Western countries is probably not so much.

However, Luo Bingwang's seven-year-old "Song of the Goose" has been passed down through the ages, and this kind of case of God's appreciation of food and food cannot be generalized, and the vast majority of writers, with 810,000 words a day, write obese, lose hair, and have impaired eyesight...... Even before his sudden death on the computer, he was still unknown.

Of the 6.8 million registered authors, there are no more than 500 people who can eat with this craft, and the vast majority of them do not make any money, or they earn very little.

After many people tried it secretly, they bought "Swordsman" and watched it repeatedly against "Blood Rain Rivers and Lakes", and had to write a word to the man in the class, on the one hand, it is a creative idea, on the other hand, it is the infiltrated pen power, and the infiltrated water grinding kung fu is indeed not comparable to ordinary people.
