Chapter 144: He Actually Wrote a Novel Without Me!

"Katis, what do you think of the way we wrote the story about the snowy mountains?"

At the hilltop camp, a relieved Hu Tao and Katis discuss how to publish his diary.

There are many books in this category, such as travel diaries, which have been written by many adventurers.

But there are very few interesting ones, and there are even more of them that can become popular.

It's more just a matter of reading and printing a few copies, as props for the adventurer himself to brag about.

After all, this kind of book can't be sold in a bookstore.

Having witnessed the rise and fall of the ancient kingdom, Hu Tao also wants to do a good job in this matter and not let history be drowned in the wind and snow.

"The way of travel journals is too simple, and there are many similar books on the market, and even if we publish them, it is difficult to shine.

"It's better to directly adapt your story into it, with you as the protagonist of the story, for some reason you know the existence of the ancient country, so you explore and discover the ancient country and restore the complete history of the ancient country."

Unlike non-fiction works, the former is easier to disseminate, more readable, and usually lasts for a long time.

The latter is more of a pursuit of authenticity, and is mostly used as a reference book, which greatly limits the dissemination.

"In order to add interest and something to see, your identity can be set as the reincarnation of the princess's lover [Warrior], because in the previous life, he has not been able to bring back hope to the ancient kingdom and regrets it for the rest of his life, so he is obsessed with the snowy mountains and the ancient kingdom in every life......

“…… During this time, you meet the reincarnation of a suspected princess lover, resulting in a series of love-hate entanglements. In the end, you made up your mind and entrusted your aftermath to our Afterlife Hall, and entered the dangerous situation of the snow-capped mountains with the princess, restoring the history of the ancient kingdom, but fell into a long sleep with the princess......"

Hu Tao talked about the synopsis, and did not forget to give a wave of advertisements to the Dead Hall.

Listening to Hu Tao's brief summary of the story, Kartis fell into a long silence.

Suddenly, he seemed to have really become the reincarnation of the warrior, and he saw the shadow of the princess in a daze.

The princess smiled at him, gave him a flower crown, and gave him a great sword forged of star silver......

However, he failed to find hope of resurrecting the ancient tree, and when he returned to the snowy mountain, nothing was there......

After a long time, he came out of that dreamlike feeling and sighed.

It's just that his figure is a little thinner, so transparent that it is almost invisible.

"Just do as you say......"

Jiang Bai quietly pushed Hu Tao with his elbow, "Hall Master, is there really such a thing as reincarnation?" ”

"You don't care if he has it or not! Hawkers, it's just about the ups and downs of the plot, the story is exciting, plus some love and hatred, these are enough, and it's a hit.

"As for whether a person is reincarnated or not, it doesn't matter."

Hu Tao said with some distress, "Although the master of this hall is okay with poetry, he is really not good at writing, so he has to find someone to write ......."

"If you're looking for a friend who is good at writing, I know one."

Albedo came over with Klee in his arms, just in time to hear Hu Tao's words.

"Oh? Do you know? Hu Tao's eyes lit up.

"Hmm. I don't know if you have read "Shenqiu Sword Record"? That book was written by my friend, and I drew the illustrations on it. ”

""Shen Qiu Picks Up the Sword"? Do you sell this book in bookstores? Not at all impressed. ”

Hu Tao shook her head, she had never heard of this book.

"Well, the response was mediocre......" Albedo was not surprised.

Obviously, he had anticipated this outcome.

"The author of this book is also from Liyue, and this book was completed some time ago and sold at your Wanwen Collection in Liyue, and he wrote to me saying that no one bought it, and it seems to be true."

"Who is the author?" Hu Tao asked.

"His name is Xingqiu, and his pen name is Pillow Jade."

"Xingqiu!" Hu Tao's mouth opened wide in surprise.

When did Xingqiu write this book?!

Doesn't he usually read all the business summaries and the philosophies of the sages? Could it be that it's just a layer of covers, and it's all inside?!

Damn it! Write about this kind of thing and don't tell her!

"Looks like you know?" Albedo raised an eyebrow.

"Of course I do. The second young master of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce can barely compete with me in terms of poetry. ”

Hu Tao looked at Jiang Bai and added a sentence in Jiang Bai's blank gaze.

"It's the one I told you before that can revitalize Guhua's swordsmanship."

"Oh~"

Saying this, Jiang Bai remembered.

Hu Tao originally said that he would take him to meet this friend, but both of them forgot about it.

Hu Tao and Xingqiu are connected with poetry, and they are poetry friends.

If they usually have leisure, they will meet to recite poetry together, and they will become familiar friends after coming and going.

But if you really want to say how much Hu Tao knows about Xingqiu, it is not.

"Looks like it's time to see him when we get back to Liyue Harbor." Hu Tao clapped his hands, looking quite excited.

"The oil poet of this dark alley faction has joined forces with him, and he will definitely be able to write this story with ups and downs!"

"Do you need me to draw an illustration?" Albedo offered to offer.

"Of course you do!" Hu Tao responded directly.

She had never seen Albedo's paintings, nor did she know how well he was drawing.

But Xingqiu's guy has a very good eye, and he can be taken by Xingqiu and selected as his illustration, Albedo's drawing skills must be extraordinary.

"I happened to take a picture of the Nail of the Cold Sky and gave it as a cover."

"As for the title of the book......

Hu Tao fell into deep thought.

"Let's call it Once Upon a Time in Snowpier." Katis spoke softly.

"Then let's call it this!"

The matter simply set the tone, and Hu Tao and Jiang Bai planned to withdraw.

They're totally here, it's time to do something else.

"We'll go first when this is done, and when Kaeya comes back to tell us goodbye."

"Hmm." Albedo nodded.

Regarding this Cold Sky Nail, he still wanted to study it for a while, and he didn't leave so quickly.

Besides, there must have been such a big commotion on the top of the hill that Mondstadt must have noticed, and maybe someone will be sent over soon to check on the situation, and they will have to stay here to explain what happened.

"Bye-bye! Klee will miss you! Klee waved her little hand goodbye to the two of them.

"Bye-bye!"

After a brief farewell, Jiang Bai and Hu Tao descended from the cave they came up to below.

"Hall Master, look for treasure! Hurry up, hurry up! Jiang Bai rubbed his hands excitedly.

Now it's just him and Hu Tao here, and no one can share the treasure with them!

Hu Tao rolled her eyes, but summoned Katis anyway.

Hearing Jiang Bai's request, Kartis was in a daze.

It hadn't been long since then, but it seemed like a long way off.

Some memories of the treasures of the snow-capped mountains are many of them unclear.

After a while, none of these memories may be there......

"I'm afraid I won't be able to last long in my current state. I'll take you to get a sword. ”
