The warm evening breeze blows through the lights of thousands of homes,

Disturbing the branches and foliage of the trees that probed under the window.

Ji Zhuo stood by the window of the study, looking at the night outside the house that was somewhat brightened by the city lights.

Facing the evening breeze that blows from time to time, I am thinking about the new book.

Today, I was playing with a group of children in the welfare home for a day, listening to some children's whimsical words, and feeling the way of thinking of the children with antelope horns.

He also had a lot of ideas about the fairy tale to be written in the new book.

In fact, he wanted to write a Chinese-style fairy tale, hoping that this fairy tale would have more traditional elements than a Western style.

It's best to add something from traditional culture as a theme.

But Ji Zhuo thought about it carefully and found that Chinese-style 'fairy tales' are often presented in the form of 'horror stories'.

For example, those horror stories told to children often contain some truth and philosophy.

But should the fairy tale of the new book be written in this way, wouldn't it be written as a horror fairy tale?

For example, as the plot progresses, the heads of the protagonists and supporting characters fall to the ground, and they are still talking all over the ground...... Well...... Is this suitable for children......

But writing like this, I inexplicably have a special desire to create.

Thinking about it, Ji Zhuo shook his head violently.

At most, there are a few horror and gloomy elements in the plot, but the whole is definitely based on fairy tales.

Thinking about it, the style was decided.

Ji Zhuo turned his gaze back from the window and walked back to the desk.

The computer is still on, but the screen is off.

Sit back down, touch the mouse with your hand and the screen lights up.

Ji Zhuo paused again at the codeword software that was still parked on the homepage,

The hand was finally on the keyboard.

"The Shepherd Boy Cultivating Immortals"

Ji Zhuo typed out the title of the new book.

Looking at it myself, I was a little dissatisfied.

The name seems to be quite fairytale, but there is always a kind of street fighting temperament that cannot be concealed...... It's just that Ji Zhuo thinks he is ugly.

What's that called?

Shepherd Boy Around the World? 》

The Shepherd Boy's Travels

It doesn't seem to sound good.

A little Chinese style?

The Shepherd Boy

The Shepherd Boy's Getaway

Seems to be okay.

It's better than calling "Shepherd Boy 1".

Well...... It doesn't seem to be much better.

Shook his head.

Ji Zhuo temporarily gave up on tangling the new title.

casually marked a new book with "Shepherd Boy",

A new blank chapter has been created.

"And then there's the introduction."

"Drink the dew of magnolia in the morning, eat the autumn chrysanthemum in the evening, and stay in the tree of the sycamore at night......

The shepherd boy of Xinghua Village, after communicating with the herding cattle, is determined to find the immortals in the world.

Along the way, he passed through the country of ants, the country of clouds, and he pointed out the direction to others, and others pointed out the direction to him...... It turns out that everything is a test for immortals.

(This is a fairy tale.) ）”

Ji Zhuo knocked on the keyboard, paused a few times from time to time, and then pressed the enter key sharply, and revised and revised this introduction.

He had never been exposed to the subject of fairy tales before, and he had rarely even read some famous fairy tales.

It's a little unfamiliar in terms of wording.

But after thinking about it, there is no need to deliberately pursue a style similar to the sentences in fairy tales.

Just write it in your own style. Anyway, the long-form fairy tales have their own style.

His fairy tale novel, in his expectation, should be a medium-length novel.

It's about the same length as "Seven Days of Hell".

The preparation is to serialize it on the website of non-ink novels for a month or two, write it almost publicly, and then gather a wave of systematic wool.

For published novels, the system calculates the current period from the time of publication and sale.

For online serialized novels, the system starts from serialization and ends when the book is finished.

I'm serialized and published.,Isn't it a bit of a trigger system bug?

But think about it, no matter what happens, the reward given by the system is only one period.

At most, when the system requirements are not met, the incentive can be renewed for another two months.

In fact, my behavior of serializing and publishing at the same time increases the risk.

But the results of publication or serialization are better, or they add up to exceed the mission goal.

The encouragement of Kim fell through again.

But can fairy tales be serialized well online?

Impossible.

Even if, there is really an unexpected, small probability, such an outrageous thing,

Ji is also ...... Forget it, it's all about making money anyway.

Both the front and back have a system to cover the bottom.

He's kind of letting himself go.

That is, there is no psychological pressure, otherwise he has written three online novels before, at most one of which is the author of a publishing-style novel.

Nor can you run to write fairy tales.

“…… Call. ”

Shaking his head, he let out a long breath.

Ji Zhuo converged a lot of complicated thoughts.

Put your hand on the keyboard and start writing this new book.

“…… Xinghua Village. After the crisp spring rain, the grass sprouts again on the hillside.

More than a dozen chickens and ducks from the farmhouse were pecking on the ground, and a sheep and a cow were also on the hillside, slowly moving along the hillside, bowing their heads and eating the grass on the ground.

The cow also flicked its tail from time to time, its clean fur reflecting slightly in the sun.

"Pop ......"

Under a tree beside the hillside, a shepherd boy grazing cattle and sheep woke up from his sleep by the dew dripping from the branches and leaves.

Hurriedly opened his eyes, looked at the cattle and sheep and listened to his words, and counted the chickens and ducks without losing them, before he breathed a sigh of relief.

Last night he played with the children of the old gentleman's house, and he could not go home until late to go to bed, and this morning he had to come out early this morning to herd cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks, and he was so sleepy that he fell asleep under the tree.

Fortunately, Lao Niu listened to his words, did not leave, and watched the chickens and ducks. ”

“…… Baa! ”

“…… Moo......"

When the cattle and sheep saw him wake up, they made noises at him one after another.

The shepherd boy patted the dew and grass seeds on his clothes and trousers, stood up and walked over.

“…… Shepherd boy, are you awake? ”

"I'm sorry, I fell asleep."

The shepherd boy had been able to hear the cows and sheep for a long time, but the rest of the village could not.

The old cow mooed, and in his ears it was the voice of an old man who was always tired,

The bleating of the sheep was in his ears the voice of an aunt.

Listening to the shepherd boy's words, the old cow wagged his tail and shook his head again.

“…… Shepherd boy, can you let me go? Last night, I heard that there was talk in the house about eating me. ”

“…… You are a ploughing ox, and they will not eat you. ”

"I'm so old, so old that I can't plow the land anymore. They will sell me for a younger cow. ”

The old cow's eyes were filled with muddy tears.

The shepherd boy was sad, but he couldn't do it, he just herded the cow for the old man's family, and the cow was not his.

“…… Then why didn't you leave when I was asleep? ”

The shepherd boy asked sadly.

"If you don't let us go, we'll always be livestock in the pen."

"Moo......"

"And where can you go?"

The shepherd boy grieved even more.

“…… I can go back to the forest. You can also go looking for 'immortals'."

"Immortals?"

"Yes, Xian, Xian has magical spells, he can make me young again, he can make me become human. Just like you. ”

"The immortal has all kinds of magical abilities, knows a lot of magical knowledge, he can fly in the air like a bird, he can swim in the sea like a fish, I can learn from him, and I don't have to plow the land for people anymore."

“…… Will he be able to feed me? ”

"Yes, immortals don't need to eat. But the place where the immortals live is a magical fertile land, which can grow a lot of delicious fruits and food. ”

“…… Have you ever seen a 'fairy'? ”

"No, but I know that he is in a far, far away place, and only if I set out, I will find him one day."

"Then I'll go with you."

"Then you can ride on me."

"Sheep, are you going to leave with us?"

"Bah...... No, I need to eat more grass to grow more hair. ”

That's it.

A shepherd boy who used to give herds,

Riding an old cow that is already very old, they left the hillside of Xinghua Village together.

Began the journey of searching for immortals.

……

Ji Shuxiu revised and rewrote the beginning of this new book,

Because it is a fairy tale, it ignores a lot of complicated logic.

A fairy tale doesn't need much, just tell a story well.

"Hoo ......"

Crackling and pounding on the keyboard,

Ji Zhuo reluctantly wrote the first chapter of this fairy tale.

Looking at the content of the first chapter, Ji Zhuo was still quite satisfied and nodded.

“…… Well, that's all for today. Rest! ”

As soon as the computer was buttoned, Ji Zhuo stood up and touched the mobile phone next to him.

I began to raise a colony of penguins with relish and read novels.

……

“…… Anno coincides with two novels, "Revival Cthulhu" and "Seven Days of Hell" in traditional and simplified Chinese publishing has been released on various online shopping malls. ”

"It just so happens that "Seven Days of Hell" just won the Galaxy Award. Give the homepage a cover and promote it. ”

"Okay."

……

"Hey......"

“…… Yun Qingmu, what are you sighing, sighing. ”

"I'm tired enough, you're still sighing all the time."

Cloud light Mujia.

Yun Qingmu slumped on the sofa in the living room, wearing pajamas, holding a mobile phone,

I'm bored, and I'm going to die.

Yun Xinxin next to him put his laptop on the coffee table and was still working overtime at home.

The whole person seems very irritable, even anxious.

“…… Yes! How embarrassed are these authors to write such a thing! ”

“…… Is there a possibility that they think they write quite well? ”

Looking at Yun Xin's crazy appearance,

Yun Qingmu, who was slumped on the sofa, glanced at it and said out loud.

The frantic expression on Yun Xinxin's face froze, and then fell silent.

Then she became very calm, silently and continued to flip through her editing background and penguin mailbox.

“…… Are you alright? ”

Seeing her sister's appearance, Yun Qingmu was a little worried.

"It's fine. It's just the feeling that your feelings might be right. ”

Yun Xinxin said expressionlessly, and then paused to continue to flip down,

It's just a snap of the computer.

Turn off the computer, and you don't have to look at those submitted novels of various colors and uneven quality.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person was much more relaxed,

"What about you, Yun Qingmu, what are you sighing here?"

"The dog author doesn't release new books for half a day, and there are no novels to read. The new ones haven't looked good lately.。 Headache. ”

Hearing Yun Qingmu say this, Yun Xin glanced at her angrily,

"Oh, then you might be able to go out and see the sun and travel."

“…… Let's talk about it. ”

Yun Qingmu slumped on the sofa, only feeling that he was a waste now,

And then......

"Huh? "Seven Days of Hell" won an award? ”

Yun Qingmu, who was bored and paddling the first reading novel APP, suddenly paused,

She saw that there was a new recommendation on the cover recommendation of the first reading novel.

"Congratulations to Seven Days of Hell for winning this year's Galaxy Award for Best Online Science Fiction."

His eyes lit up, and Yun Qingmu clicked in.

After clicking in, it is a special page of the dog author's work.

From top to bottom, there are three novels by dog authors and the editor-in-chief's recommendations.

At the same time, there is also a link to buy the physical books of "Revival Cthulhu" and "Seven Days of Hell".

Yun Qingmu glanced at it, and first clicked on the physical book purchase link,

I bought both books and had one thing on my mind at the same time.

There should be an award ceremony for the Galaxy Awards.

The dog author won the award, so he won't attend!

Did the dog author show up?

Yun Qingmu thought about it, and the whole person became a little excited,

Let me take a look! The 'ugly face' of this dog author,

Damn broken chapter dog, dog author, don't open a new book for half a day!

Let me see what you look like!

There should be a video of the Galaxy Awards ceremony on the Internet.

After all, such a big award.

Thinking about it, Yun Qingmu directly opened the broken station and searched for it.

Then I searched the whole video of this year's Galaxy Awards ceremony directly on the broken station.

glanced at it, the number of broadcasts is not high, and it is only about 100,000,

There are quite a few comments, more than a thousand.

Most of the comments in the comment section mention the dog author,

Although in the field of science fiction, the status of dog authors is far inferior to that of other winners,

But it's really hard to say what it's like popularity, popularity, and the number of readers.

Before Yun Qingmu clicked on the video, he was still glancing at the comment area.

“…… The dog author turned out to be quite handsome! It's a disgrace! ”

"The dog author is still here to receive the award, what about the new book! What about my big new book? ”

“…… I can't figure it out, why is the dog author so handsome! ”

“…… Ah, I met the dog author last night, and it's as handsome as in the video! If you ask me where I met, all I can say is ...... In a dream! ”

“…… Are you serious about this dream? ”

Glancing at these comments about dog authors,

Yun Qingmu's eyes lit up again,

It seems that the dog author really made an appearance at the awards ceremony?

Looking at the comments, the dog author looks like a dog......

Yun Qingmu thought about it, clicked on the video,

Then I looked at the beginning, and I directly followed the barrage airborne progress instructions,

dragged the video progress to the moment when the Galaxy Award for Best Online Science Fiction was awarded,

That is, when the dog author appears,

“…… For a number of reasons, the candidates for this year's Internet Science Fiction Awards did not come to the ceremony. ”

Although the dog author did not go to the scene to receive the award,

But the way the video connection is made does not affect the face of the dog author who sees the dog in the video at this moment.

I can even see it quite clearly.

It's pretty handsome,

Especially when the dog author is full of confidence and gives an acceptance speech,

However, this face is not a little too familiar.

Yun Qingmu looked at it, and then kept squinting his eyes,

"Ji Zhuo ......"

From the teeth, Yun Qingmu squeezed out these two words.

This dog author turned out to be Ji Zhuo!

At this moment,

Yun Qingmu couldn't help but think of many pictures in his mind.

When Ji Zhuo first recommended a 'clumsy and extraordinary' novel to himself,

There is a time when the novel is not popular because of the epoch coincidence, and when I look for Ji Clumsy to push the chapter.

When Ji Zhuo didn't want to let himself know what the name of the novel he wrote,

There is a time when Ji Zhuo said that he also reads the novels of the dog author.

And when she praised the dog author for writing a good novel in front of Ji Zhuo!

And then think,

Yun Qingmu held the mobile phone in his hand harder and harder,

His eyes narrowed, and his teeth clenched!

Just stared at the familiar face in the video who was still talking,

“…… Yun Qingmu ...... Sister...... I feel like I'm a little murderous or something...... Are you alright? ”

Yun Xinxin next to him seemed to feel that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he turned his head and asked aloud.

"It's alright...... Hehe. ”

Yun Qingmu squinted his eyes, didn't look back, and looked at Ji Zhuo in the video screen.

Then the teeth clenched, pushing harder and harder.

I said, how does it feel wrong! Dog author, epoch coincidence, clumsy and extraordinary, clumsy!

This scene made Yun Xinxin next to him look at it more carefully,

I shuddered, and then ...... Moved a little further to the couch.
