Jiufang Tea Party 3: Main Line, Goal and Certainty

The text is nearly 1.5 million words, and after experiencing the fog in the early stage, the context of this article has gradually become clear. But there are still friends who have never been able to figure out what the main line of "Immortals" is and where the direction of the protagonist's struggle is.

Also, where is the motivation and motivation of the protagonist to do things?

In this tea party, Jiufang will talk about this issue.

For the avoidance of doubt, let's be honest and honest, and the main line is written in the introduction:

"Follow the clues left by the immortals, reverse the established fate, unravel the truth of the gods and demons, and make contributions by the way."

With the current book friends, they can vaguely perceive the crux of the distortion of this world, the source of the contradictions, and who the enemy the protagonist will ultimately fight against.

At present, such an enemy is still more majestic than the distant mountains and more powerful than the Heavenly Dao for the protagonist.

That's right, so it's another boring savior.

Why don't you throw out the main line from the beginning, why don't you set a good goal for the protagonist and the reader at the beginning?

Because this goal is too far and too high. To put it bluntly, it's too big.

As soon as they crossed over, you said to him, "The gods of this world are breaking to death, and they mean that whoever dies." Now I give you an important task to defeat the gods. ”

People will just spit on you in the face and scold you for being insane.

No one is a born fighter.

Even love and hate need a reason, let alone such ethereal things as faith, will, and perseverance?

As a migrant worker who has passed through modern society, he cannot be expected to have a firm fighting spirit and lofty consciousness from the beginning, after all, he may not have lived to understand it in his previous life.

He should start with what he does best, that is:

Drift.

This is not a pejorative term. The best result for ordinary people to struggle to survive in the troubled times is to be able to go with the flow and mix up food and clothing - ****Who is not tired? We are still in a prosperous age, who dares to say that we have not been cut by this world? - If you want to be Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang, the probability is so small that it is negligible.

Once the success is done, the bones will wither, and ordinary people will wither when they go.

So the protagonist first rolls in the red dust and realizes the sinister hearts of people from the world and his father - the first volume of "Coiling Dragon".

Then officially open the copy of Dafang Pot-Panlong City + Golden Finger, and secretly practice to improve yourself - the second and third volumes of "Fairy".

As the eldest son of the governor of Xiazhou, he experienced the rise and fall of the empire, the turmoil of the Huan Sea, was involved in military and political struggles, and experienced the first major war in his life - the fourth volume of "Shi Huan" and the fifth volume of "Dunyu".

Borrowed water to escape from his homeland and his father, and since then the sky has been wide and free to develop - the sixth volume of "The Devil's Nest".

Under the guidance of Panlong City and fate, advance to the territory of the enemy of life, observe, integrate and study it, and destroy it - Volumes 7 and 8 "The Ideal Kingdom of the Demon (Part II)".

After experiencing the author's ruthless trials, Brother Chuan's experience gradually became richer, so that he could establish his own goals.

Targets that fit the main line.

For example, to unlock the secret of the Great Square Pot, such as to find out the weakness of the gods, and then to accumulate their own power to protect themselves and fight against ...... Well, that's all for later, let's break it down later.

In fact, it is not impossible to regard the main line of this book as the personal growth process of the protagonist, focusing on natural and natural.

Now that we're talking about goals, let's talk about "certainty".

Let me apologize to you first, the main line and goal of this book are indeed not obvious at the beginning of the article, and most people can vaguely feel it, but they can't say it.

And every time the protagonist does something, there may not be a very clear benefit, that is, the so-called "pull light effect" is missing:

As soon as I pulled the switch, the light came on.

The feedback is very timely, the effect is very obvious, and I feel very satisfied.

The above two points contribute to the uncertainty of this article.

The online articles that everyone usually reads, these are the basic elements, they are important coordinates, and a little less can be sentenced to death.

Therefore, writing "uncertainty" well is actually a difficult challenge.

Why should Jiufang be thankless and honestly write a clear main line and a clear goal?

On the one hand, there is bad taste.

If this article allows everyone to see the head at a glance and know what the protagonist will do in the future, then the author's fun will be reduced by at least half.

(Well, just kidding)

On the other hand, I hope that this atmosphere shrouded in unknown fog will make it easier for book lovers to substitute for Brother Chuan's perspective, see what he sees, think what he thinks, and be anxious about what he is anxious about, so that they can put themselves in their shoes and empathize more with the situation and environment in which the protagonist lives.

After all, "uncertainty" is the biggest problem facing the protagonist.

It's like on the vast sea, you, me, and the protagonist are all in the same broken boat, swept by the tide of the times, and have to face the unknown and danger together.

As for the problem of insufficient "pull lamp effect", Jiufang does not avoid it, which is also one of the directions of future efforts.

As Brother Chuan becomes stronger and stronger, this aspect will also be strengthened.

If the characters have to grow, so should the author.

Our text is not flawless, not blameless.

Therefore, if "Immortals" is given a little time to overcome difficulties, a little patience to overcome difficulties, and a little happy irrigation, it may also grow beyond expectations.

A bit of a surprise, isn't it more worth looking forward to?
