Chapter Ninety-Two: Reborn Sword Cultivation, I became the head of the Qin family
In the afternoon, Roy and Arya changed into civilian clothes and wandered around Uptown's commercial streets.
If they were looking to buy supplies from the government, they were clearly in the wrong place, as it was close to the land-crunched Sidenia Square, where shops specialize in luxury goods and cultural arts.
But now, of course, Roy won't hold on to this excuse anymore.
Browse some clothing stores and accessories stores, buy some snacks and drinks, and hold hands for a chat, and have a good time along the way like a couple on a date.
Here, Roy took a box of freshly baked Sanxian dumplings from the store and handed it to Arya.
"Eh, let me eat first?"
Arya took the box, her eyes shining, "This is not appropriate, you should let the young master taste it first." ”
"You know that, too?"
Roy crossed his waist and seemed to smile, "Then what should you do as a maid at this time?" ”
"Oh...... Oooh! ”
Seeing that he was hinting at him frantically, Arya immediately came back to her senses, and hurriedly skewered a three-fresh dumpling with a bamboo skewer, held it in a box, and fed it to Roy's mouth.
Fang Cai's date turned out to be careless, you can't be proud, Arya, no matter when, you have to pay attention to the etiquette of the maid!
"Hmm-"
Roy was satisfied with the dumplings. I just feel good.
In the past, he was not used to being taken care of by his servants, and he felt that if he had to feed his mouth, he would really become a waste-like child.
Can ...... now Who can refuse the feeding of a valet maid?
It smells so good!
After eating, he also smacked his lips and commented casually: "I don't feel as delicious as the dumplings made at home." ”
Arya covered her mouth and laughed softly: "Aunt Mary taught her well before." If the young master still wants to eat, I'll make some more in the evening! ”
The two walked away with a smile and a smile, and behind them, the owner of the snack bar slowly typed a question mark.
Are you polite?
Not far from here is a bookstore, where Roy used to come to read and buy books, and since they have all come, they also stopped by the bookstore.
Arya also likes to read, as a child she liked to read picture books, and when she grew up, she liked to read storybooks and.
She was thinking about a topic that she could talk to Roy about later, and exchange their reading hobbies-
I saw Roy walking through the children's education area and the popular area, and stopped in a corner of the bookstore that no one cared about.
He picked up a book from the shelf and read it intently.
Arya quietly poked her head out of his side and saw a small line written on the spine:
"On the Ecological Environment and Protists in the World Tree 03"
No...... It's you!
Arya swallowed hard and withdrew her gaze, Roy closed the book and sighed, "Sorry, I accidentally got hooked."
"I've been chasing this book since I was in elementary school, and I was reading the first book, and I was fascinated by the descriptions of the various small worlds in the World Tree......
"It's a pity that the author is too slow, I come to the bookstore every once in a while to update, but in a blink of an eye I am about to graduate, and now it is only the third volume.
"I've read this book three or five times at home, and I don't know when the next one will come out...... Forget that, what about you, do you have any books you want to buy? ”
"I'm ......" Arya looked at the children's education area and the popular area with fluttering eyes, and her heart was very entangled.
With Roy's book in front of Zhuyu, I always feel like the picture books and popular ...... I read Suddenly it seems so classless!
The young master won't laugh at me, right?
With apprehension, Arya led Roy slowly towards the popular area, and then heard the sound of an argument taking place in front of the counter.
"Why, editor, I have been working on this book for months, but why don't you even read it, and just assert that this book cannot be published?"
Standing in front of the counter was a young man about the same age as them, and he looked at the middle-aged man sitting at the counter, his tone full of reluctance and incomprehension.
In Sidnia, bookstores and publishing houses are in their own right, and editors also have editors who review authors' submissions for new books.
"Don't get excited, Mr. Ye."
The editor helped his one-sided glasses, and his face was also helpless: "I believe in your pen power, mainly because of your subject, which really can't be published." ”
"What's not to be published about?"
The young man said in a deep voice, "I was originally good at writing documentary reference books, but you said that this kind of book has no market, no profit, and cannot be published, and persuaded me to rewrite it in popularity, so I wrote it!"
"But now, you're telling me that this book can't be published? Can you explain why this is. ”
Author vs. editor tear apart?
Can I watch this for free as a reader?
Roy stopped curiously and took the drink and three fresh dumplings from Arya.
The editor sighed, he put the pile of manuscripts in his hand in front of the young man, pointed to the first line of the manuscript, and said solemnly:
"First of all, you have a problem with the title.
"Rebirth Sword Cultivation, I became the head of the Qin family, are you sure that after this book is published, our bookstore will not be troubled by the Qin family?"
"Ahem, ahem!" Roy, who was drinking water, almost didn't hold back, coughing violently, and Arya on the side was busy patting him on the back.
"It's because it's the Qin family that I want to write like this." The young man frowned, "The protagonist is set to be a sword cultivator, and the Qin family is the strongest sword cultivator family in West Denia.
"Since you want to write it popularly, the plot has to be cool, so of course you have to let the protagonist become the head of the Qin family!"
"You also know that the Qin family's strength is very strong?" The editor's fingers tapped on the table, and his tone gradually became impatient,
"What doesn't work is not good, Teacher Yiye Zhiqiu, I can only advise you not to touch this kind of red line again, our bookstore can't afford this risk.
"If you insist on doing so, then please look elsewhere and don't work with us again!"
Hearing this, the boy fell silent.
This is the largest bookstore and publishing house in Sidney, and if they don't accept this manuscript, no one else will dare to accept it.
It seems that the first step in the transformation from a reference book author to a popular author can be regarded as a complete failure.
In the end, he just sighed, silently put the manuscript away, and was about to leave the bookstore.
At this moment, someone on the side asked, "Excuse me, are you Teacher Yiye Zhiqiu?" ”
Roy stopped him, his expression surprised.
He is too familiar with this pen name, and his favorite series of books "On the Ecological Environment and Protists in the World Tree" is written by Yiye Zhiqiu!
Good guy, you can let me catch it, don't continue to serialize good books, and dig holes elsewhere, right?
However, what surprised him was that he had always thought that the author who could write such a reference book must be a middle-aged man who was well-informed and had a deep study of the World Tree.
At least, it shouldn't be a teenager who looks the same age as him.
Doesn't this mean that when he was still about ten years old, he had already begun to write the first volume of the "On the World Tree" series?
That's enough to call him a genius.
Or does he just have a baby face?
No matter what, Roy is ready to "torture" this teenager fiercely, asking him why he broke off the "On the World Tree" series!
RNM, are you worthy of the readers who have been waiting for your update?
Returning money is secondary, you hurt the reader's feelings so deeply, what do you owe me here! (Chest patting)
"You are?" He looked at Roy quizzically.
The teenager has brown hair and brown eyes, is of medium stature, and has nothing particularly noticeable.
The personality can be regarded as calm, even if the manuscript has just been rejected, there is no particularly frustrated expression on his face.
"Teacher Yiye Zhiqiu, my name is Roy Arnold, your loyal reader."
Roy stretched out his hand with a kind face, "Can I waste a little of your time, I want to read your new work." ”
The young man hesitated for a while, as if he felt that his masterpiece was stillborn, and it would be good if one more person saw it, so he nodded, shook hands with Roy and said:
"My name is Ye Tianchen, if you want to see it, just watch it."
Leaf dumping? Roy's face was a little strange.
Good guy, worthy of being a person who writes books, even his real name is very much like the name of the protagonist
The three of them walked out of the bookstore, found a secluded teahouse box and sat down, Roy took the manuscript and began to read it carefully.
When he first came to this world, he also read a lot of popularity, but the literature of this world is still in its infancy, and the level of popularity generally cannot enter his eyes.
Over time, he stopped looking.
And Ye Tianchen wrote this book "Rebirth Sword Cultivation, I Became the Head of the Qin Family", which is good, but it is still not good enough, and it is only slightly better than the popular ones sold in ordinary bookstores.
At least in his mind, it is completely inferior to the "On the World Tree" series.
The environment and ecology of the various small worlds depicted in "On the World Tree" are extremely realistic, and if it were not for the author's immersive investigation, such a detailed description would not have been written.
Whether it is literary value or practical significance, it is far from being comparable to a cool text.
We must find a way to let the author rewrite the "On the World Tree" series!
Thinking of this, Roy raised his head and said while considering his tone: "Actually, I think that with Mr. Ye Tianchen's vision and strength, there is no need to cater to the market and write that kind of cookie-cutter popularity. ”
Arya: "......"
Roy: "I'm a big fan of your "On the World Tree" series, and I just heard that the editor suggested that you make the switch, because not many readers of reference books and non-fiction are willing to pay for it......
"If Mr. Ye is forced by life and has no choice but to change careers, I am willing to sponsor you to continue writing!
"Go to his market! Go for his profits! Mr. Ye, those mortals will not understand the value of the "On the World Tree" series, but I firmly believe that this book will definitely become a treasure at the level of a masterpiece in the future! ”
Although Roy also felt that he was somewhat exaggerated, in order to make Ye Tianchen change his mind, he still said it in passing.
As for whether it can become a masterpiece for future generations...... It doesn't have much to do with the people of their generation.
"I didn't expect that readers in the "On the World Tree" series would like it so much......"
Ye Tianchen smiled bitterly, "The sales of this book are not good, I always thought that I was doing useless work, and I am really happy to have your support today."
"However, there is one thing you may be mistaken, I am not short of money.
"I ...... Born in the World Tree, the family background is quite solid, and my usual hobby is to play in the mountains and rivers in the small worlds of all parties, and the "On the World Tree" series is my improvisation. ”
It turned out to be a native born in the World Tree...... Roy's heart flickered.
This explains why Ye Tianchen looks about the same age as him, but his description of the World Tree is extremely detailed.
Humans have so far conquered the seventeen-layer small world in the World Tree, and the temple needs to send a lot of people to be stationed in this seventeen-layer world to ensure the safety of those resource points in each small world.
Over time, the people stationed near the resource points have been living in the World Tree.
In fact, Harvey was also born in the World Tree, and his Rudolph family has lived in the Ellan Plains on the first floor of the World Tree for generations, establishing pastures and raising horses for a living.
Ye Tianchen's life experience is estimated to be similar to Harvey.
"I was already going to close the pen, but if there are readers who want to read it......"
Ye Tianchen nodded, "Then I'm willing to continue writing." ”
"When will you finish the fourth book?" Roy looked at him expectantly, "A month? Two months? Three months is enough, right? ”
Ye Tianchen groaned: "I'm afraid this is not enough. ”
"Do you have to wait half a year!?" Roy's expression was hideous.
Ye Tianchen silently twisted his head to the side: "I'm afraid it will take three years." ”
Roy:?
It's hard, the fist is hard.
"I didn't mean to delay!"
He explained, "I don't have a manuscript in hand, and if I want to continue writing, it will take at least eight or nine months, but in half a year, I will be ready to enter the Inheritor Academy."
"I've heard that the college is quite hard, and I can't guarantee that I will have enough time to write, so I have to wait until three years after I graduate."
"You're also an inheritor?" Roy was slightly surprised.
However, if you think about it carefully, it is reasonable, there are many dangers in all aspects of the World Tree, and if you are not the inheritor, it will be difficult to investigate on the spot.
"Yes......" Ye Tianchen thought for a while and said, "I'm a sword cultivator. ”
"No wonder the name of this book is 'Rebirth Sword Cultivation'."
Roy couldn't laugh or cry, "Even if you write about feelings, you have your own evidence, right?" ”
He let out a sigh of relief, and then said, "You said that it was a coincidence, it just so happens that we will also be enrolled in the Inheritor Academy this year.
"Teacher Ye, do you have your own team, and do you have any requirements for your future teammates?"
Ye Tianchen shook his head: "I don't have any friends, and I don't have my own team, but I heard that the Inheritor Academy will automatically assign teammates, do I still need to find it myself?" ”
"So you don't have any requirements for your teammates!" Roy raised his forehead, "Can I ask you what level you are now?" ”
Ye Tianchen hesitated: "Third order." ”
"Third Order?" Roy was stunned for a moment, repeated it, and couldn't help laughing when he saw Ye Tianchen nodding.
"No wonder you don't have any requirements for your teammates, with your strength, when you enter the Inheritor Academy, there will definitely be a lot of people to invite you, and you won't be down to the extent that the academy automatically assigns teammates."
What kind of strength is it to reach the third level before entering the school?
At present, only Qin Xiang, the direct descendant of the Qin family of the temple family, and Jiang Xiang, the side line of the Jiang family of the temple family, have reached the third-order strength at this age.
and Arya, who has just become a legal envoy, will soon be promoted to the second order, and under the protection of Joyeus, that is the strength of the third order.
If he didn't have the Heart of God, he Roy probably wouldn't have reached the third order by the middle of the year.
In order to publish a sequel to the book he likes to read as soon as possible, he originally thought that he would bring an extra drag oil bottle, but he didn't expect the big guy to be in front of him?
Roy rubbed his face and calmed down for a while, then he looked at Ye Tianchen seriously: "Although it is a little abrupt, our team just lacks one person, in this case, are you interested in being our teammate?"
"We will definitely win the first place in this year's freshman competition. Moreover, I will try to make sure that you are not disturbed by other trivial matters and can concentrate on writing in your spare time.
"How, are you interested?
"Teacher Ye?"
