A transmigration novel set in an alternate history, with no System or golden finger, no womanizing hero, and a relatively rigorous approach that stays close to historical fact.
From a unique perspective, it recounts the decades of upheaval at the end of the Ming dynasty.
Drawing on historical sources and research, it reconstructs a turbulent era that stirs the soul, exploring society, culture, human nature, warfare, emotions, art, and technology.
The early chapters lay plenty of groundwork, with intricate and intertwined storylines both overt and hidden. The later chapters deliver intense satisfaction and perfectly address the historical frustrations that weigh on readers' minds.
This is a story that makes you think, with finely crafted plot details. Readers looking for mindless power fantasy may want to steer clear.
The rating of this book should be between 8.5-9.0 As a bookworm of late Ming Dynasty who has read Old White Bull, Keshan Meng, Grizzly Panda, Braggadocio... I think readers who plan to devote themselves to writing should read this book and learn from its strengths and weaknesses. It can be seen that the author has a grand writing framework. This book is pretty average. The setting of the time traveler's attachment is also very novel. The explanations of geography, allusions, and regulations are very detailed. The author himself has several million words of manuscripts saved. Did the author refer to other late Ming Dynasty texts when writing? The author should know that readers who read historical texts, especially those from the Ming Dynasty, are of relatively high quality, similar to readers who read Western Fantasy, Cthulhu, and magic. Without a certain knowledge reserve, it is difficult to get recognition for your writing ability... This kind of thing is explained in detail, and it is the longest article of this type... The author has a detailed background explanation, there is a masterpiece "Lingao Qiming", but the detailed description of this book is to describe the progress of technology and system... Has the author read "Sin City"? The author's description is short and full of visual sense. Many authors have imitated this writing style. However, in the late Ming Dynasty, Lao Bainiu's writing method was earlier and more skillful (unfortunately, the author was ill and was unable to update) The author can use the basic settings of this book to write urban and fictional articles with historical backgrounds. It can exercise writing skills, and this kind of readers prefer explanations.
There is no reason to say, the author does have a good understanding of history, but why does the protagonist keep assisting others? Lin, an ancient man, is more like the protagonist. In fact, after careful analysis, Lin is definitely not the protagonist, but the previous writing makes people feel that he is. If the protagonist fully assists, he may eventually become the emperor, but the protagonist will definitely die. So the time traveler will definitely be the protagonist later.
I've read 40 chapters, it's a good novel 👍
The current plot is not a surprise
