In a magnificent hall, a red carpet embroidered with many rare and exotic beasts was spread on the ground, and the many strange beasts on it looked lifelike, just like the real thing.

If you are knowledgeable, you will be surprised to find that the beasts on this bright red carpet are not embroidered with needles and threads, but are sewn together from the fur of hundreds of exotic beasts.

At any glance, tin baby bear, poison raccoon, thunder silver sheep, red flame ape...... None of them are mortal, just by looking at this valuable carpet, you can know how rich the owner of this place is.

The hall is surrounded by neat bookshelves, which are filled with all kinds of books, but unlike the various scriptures collected by ordinary literati, more than ninety percent of the books on them are novels of all kinds.

At this time, there were eight people sitting around an oval long table in the middle of the hall, all of whom were dressed in long coats and crowns on their heads.

However, if you look closely, you will find that these eight people/innocent/wrong/are still fundamentally different from the Confucian scholars.

The literati of Confucianism were solemn or frivolous, but they all had one common characteristic, that is, their own requirements for etiquette.

Don't look at the old men of the Haoran Mansion of Zhuang Yuyuan, they sometimes act like old children, often doing some things to play treasures, but their usual actions are in line with etiquette norms, which makes people look very comfortable.

And these eight people in the hall, judging from their eyes alone, although they also look very profound, full of wisdom and knowledge, but they lack the Confucian norms of their own behavior, and they look a little lazy.

Yes, these eight people are authentic novelists, and they are also the core class of the Zhuang Language Academy, the senior leaders of novelists.

"Is everything clear?"

Suddenly. A middle-aged man sitting on the throne dressed in an earthy yellow coat and wearing a jasper wrench said slowly.

This person is amazing, his status as a novelist is roughly equivalent to Fan Yi of the Confucian Haoran Mansion, that is to say, this person is the "head of the department" of the novelist of the Zhuang Yuyuan.

This person's name is Li Wenhan, but. Since he would sign himself as Yuhe when writing novels, others generally called Yuhe's husband.

"Husband Yu, we have already figured out the identity of the tiger in the forest. ”

"Oh? ”

"Lin Zhonghu, formerly known as Lin Hu, eighteen years old, was born in Qibei Mansion, Cangnan County, Cangzhou, and is now a disciple of our college, and entered the school in March last year. A month and a half ago, he officially became an elite disciple of my academy with the Yin God Realm. ”

"What family is he from now?"

"Uh, Confucian!"

"Confucianism?"

The husband chuckled softly, but did not speak, and the hall fell into a dead silence.

After a long time, Yuhe's husband suddenly crossed his hands and five fingers, pressed against his chin, and said slowly: "Old Gong, tell me about your investigation." ”

"Yes. Husband!" replied to Lao Gong, who was sitting on Yuhe's right hand.

"Lin Hu, more than a month ago under the pen name Lin Zhonghu released the novella "A Chinese Ghost Story". It is said that the idea for this novel came from a mission he had experienced before, and the main character was based on himself. In the nearly two months since the novel hit the shelves, it has attracted a large number of readers with its unique subject matter, and as of three days ago, the book has sold more than 120 million copies......"

More than 120 million sounds terrifying. However, it is only a drop in the ocean on the huge base of tens of millions of miles in the entire Dali and the unknown number of people.

"More than 120 million ......"

Yuhe's husband closed his eyes and thought for a while, and then said slowly: "Although there is a reason for the strong support of Qingfeng Study, but for a newcomer. But it should not be underestimated. ”

"By the way, what's new on the list of Dali Jing books lately?"

The so-called Jingshu List is a list unique to novelists, and it is at least a primary spiritual weapon, and the Dali Jingshu List is an intermediate spiritual weapon. It may not be clear to outsiders, but this is their own internal assessment of the popularity of a novelist's work.

As for the conditions for being on the list, the sales of novels are only one of the small reasons, and it is said that there are many conditions that outsiders do not know.

Generally, the time on the list is 30 years, and all the novels on the list are off the list after 30 years, of course, most of the novels on the list are spiritual books and divine books.

As for the novels above the Taoist book, because they are too rare, they will not appear on this kind of list.

It is said that in the whole world, as long as there is a novel or more than a Taoist book, it will automatically climb on a mysterious Taoist monument, and it will never be off the list.

As for its ranking, it is ranked by the Dao Monument itself, and it is impossible for humans to interfere.

The Jingshu List is modeled by novelists everywhere on the basis of that monument, and it is generally oriented to a certain country or region.

"In recent years, there hasn't been much change on my list, and some of the old guys have changed places with each other. ”

"If you want to talk about the sudden rise of the army, you have to count the sneaky Tang Bohu. Since he released the book, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has been ranked eighty-seventh, and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has been ranked forty-nineth. ”

"But that's it, according to our estimates, these two novels may both be squeezed into the top 30 in less than a year, and I heard that these two novels are also quite popular in several surrounding countries. ”

Hearing this old Gong's answer, the people around him were all shocked. Although they also knew that Tang Bohu had been very popular recently, they couldn't have predicted that it would be so popular.

Don't look at eighty-seven or forty-nine, you think this ranking is very low, but you must know that judging from the experience of these people for so many years, this ranking is not only very high, but also ridiculously high.

The listing of a novel is not only based on its temporary popularity and sales, but also on the subtle influence it brings.

The time spent in this is considered short even if it is four or five years, a good novel can withstand the test of time, ordinary people may just read novels for fun, but those warrior monks read novels more to learn the truth.

That's right, it's the truth.

Martial arts are all figured out, and the reason why "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" can be so popular among the monks is precisely because they record many unusual martial arts insights, which are worth pondering.

Compared with ordinary people, these warriors are the real big heads, and the power of faith that they bring to the author of reading novels is also dozens or hundreds of times more than that of ordinary people.

There are a total of 300 rankings on the Jingshu list, and most of the people who can squeeze into the top 100 are old fritters who have written novels for tens or hundreds of years, and the top 50, even the eight people they are here, more than half of them have not done it.

And how long has it been since Tang Bohu published the book, and it has only been less than a year in total, but he has done what these old guys have not done for hundreds of years, which makes them feel embarrassed!

"By the way, that Confucian kid's novel has also been on the list of fine books, and now it is 213, and it seems that it still has great potential. ”

"Really?"

Yuhe's husband pondered for a moment, and then said, "Since he has the potential in this area, let me find a way to pull him to our side!"

"Husband, but the Confucian side ......"

"There's nothing to do, he's not a disciple of the inner courtyard yet, if he's willing to leave, plus my old face, Confucianism can't say anything. ”

"Yes!" (to be continued......)
