The eight virtues of a knight: humility, honor, sacrifice, valor, compassion, honesty, justice, and spirituality. I want protagonists who embody the spirit of chivalry in both their intentions and their actions, brimming with passion, carrying ideals, radiating humanity, and never being selfish or self-serving.

Seeking the Ultimate Holy Scripture
The protagonist can repay evil with kindness, sacrifice himself for others, sacrifice his life for righteousness, not be selfish, not benefit himself at the expense of others, not favor his own people, and treat all living beings equally. I sincerely request a book, but it makes me feel uncomfortable when I see the darkness inside the protagonist.

The story feels idealistic and also feels realistic. It feels like a very confusing feeling. The protagonist with the system is constantly searching for his own path. The strength that can carry a boulder can't break the darkness. The elixir that brings the dead back to life cannot heal the estrangement in people's hearts. Constantly set out towards the unknown, regardless of success or failure. Even though he knew the result, he still did it. This is the courage of a knight. Let me see imperfect protagonists, sad protagonists, sad protagonists who look good. This reminds me of a question: does the system choose the protagonist, or does the protagonist choose the system? In my opinion, this story is about the protagonist choosing the system. Where there is an optimal solution, confusion and regret are the norm. If the system is on the protagonist's companion, the story will not look good. The companion is very rich and has far more knowledge than the protagonist. The system may be the best for him. He also has ideals and can consider reality, making him the perfect candidate for the system. He can keenly see the protagonist's problems and help him. Even if the protagonist's idea is not adopted, he still helps unconditionally. The characters are well developed and have distinct personalities. The protagonist is an ordinary person with a broken family and financial constraints. He runs back and forth between pain and hope, arrogance, cowardice, fear, worry, and gradually overcomes it. It is an ordinary process of becoming a knight. The process of continuous growth of ideals. Perhaps the final outcome of an idealist may be death, but the result is not just death.
My God, this is much more exciting than "Don Quixote"! At first, I read this book with the purpose of watching the protagonist go crazy, and regarded this book as a funny book to read while relaxing. But after reading later, I knew I was wrong. This book alludes to many social problems by describing the protagonist using some ridiculous and funny methods to complete system tasks. For example, when it comes to schools charging arbitrary fees, I hope everyone can relate to it. Our school always holds some inexplicable activities, and then you have to pay to participate. If you don't participate, you won't be allowed to go home. You have to stay alone in the classroom all day. The teacher will also say that you are not gregarious and have no sense of collective honor. You can't do anything after paying the money, except walking, which is called being close to nature. The food cost of 50 yuan is not as good as a meal of noodles from outside, and the shirt costing 100 yuan feels like a cheap second-hand rag. Who am I to laugh at Don Quixote? I long to be Don Quixote, not afraid of the strange eyes of the world, to realize my dreams; not to be bound by high-sounding justice, to carry out the justice in my heart. But I don't dare. I have my own studies and I bear the expectations of my family. Countless reasons and excuses locked me tightly and wore away my courage bit by bit. Seeing the confusion of the protagonist in the book after gaining power, I instinctively wanted to rant. But thinking about it carefully, if it were me, I might not be as good as the protagonist. I'm afraid I don't even have the courage to go on stage to accuse the school. I have been "tamed" by them. If I become a successful person, I'm afraid I will conform to the expectations of others, thank my annoying teacher who has given me nothing but blows, and stage a scene of "the deep love between master and disciple" that people love. I hope the author can stick to his original intention and continue telling the story of the protagonist. I also hope that this book will not be sealed or harmonized, and that I can show my complete posture to the world. Come on, author!!!
A very good book. In terms of satirical realism, this novel is definitely the first to be read and discussed, and the writing style is also very delicate. It is a pity that such a good book does not get traffic and cannot be read by many, many people. In addition. Regarding the relationship between Mr. Kong and the protagonist, I think it can be taken a step further, really. Later on, the author's writing style and satire became more and more delicate, with the style of a famous book, and he could be called a real writer.
A masterpiece, no doubt a masterpiece. In a ridiculous and strange way, it perfectly interprets the virtues that a knight should have... It must be virtue. There is nothing to say, but the turbulent and mottled emotions are noisy and gathered to compose this wonderful chapter. It is difficult to read this kind of complicated and red tape, but I am obsessed with it. Every time I recite it, I feel like I am tasting some great, indescribable dream... Sancho, oh, Sancho, you have paid too much for Don Quixote. Fortunately, the knight killed the evil dragon shrouded in dark clouds in his heart. On the high mountain, he followed the guidance of the elders and regained the pair of eyes that could see the world clearly. The unparalleled beauty of chivalry blossoms little by little in this somewhat Monte Carlo-style (exhaustive) interpretation, which I love. Oh... Qiusang, oh... Li Zhi...

It's good to read. In this book, you can see the protagonist picking up scraps, riding a bicycle, carrying an umbrella without a knife on a rainy night, cosplaying, sucking magic dust, killing people and setting fires, fighting against buildings and poisonous snakes, cursing the principal at a school party, working in a factory, eating swill, eating green belts, fighting beggars for jobs, and a series of wonderful stories [laughter]
This is the only style that I have seen in novels that I have read for so many years, and it is unique. Personal evaluation is that it is very high-quality, and it feels like a strange combination of Chinese and Western. When I read the name of this book, I thought it was nothing interesting. After reading it carefully, I felt that I could give this book full marks (personal opinion) 👍👍👍
The writing style is sharp and profound. While being funny in the early stage, it also explains the characters' personalities, images, and growth environment. Then you can find out what the novel wants to express in the future. Through the perspective of the protagonist Zhang Lizhi, it satirizes some social phenomena that still exist. And Zhang Lizhi in the article is also the epitome of countless people in real life. At least, I can see my own shadow in him. The ending of the protagonist Don Quixote in "Don Quixote" is a tragedy, a tragedy caused by the character's character, social environment and fate. The title of the book "I am not Don Quixote" seems to hint to the readers that the ending of the protagonist Zhang Lizhi is to bravely resist and break the shackles of fate and become a true "knight". This is indeed a good book worth looking forward to.
It can't be called a masterpiece, but it touches my heart more than those masterpieces. The writing style still has some shortcomings, but it is much better than those bullshit articles circulating in the market. This is a fantasy knight novel. From now on, I may never see a novel like this.
It's very interesting and has a certain reading threshold. As a fast-selling book, it is undoubtedly full of loopholes, but this book is literary, and there is no doubt that it is literary. In fact, each of us has been Don Quixote chasing the wind, but in the end we were defeated at the hands of giants. We have no natural supernatural power, only a pair of rough hands. If idealism wants to gain a foothold, it must be based on realism. The world has its own rules. Society is the result of a collection of multiple human individuals. We are similar but different. Everyone is an independent object, seemingly under the same sky but completely different. History is like a carriage. On the one hand, someone is asking the horse to run faster and is constantly whipping it. On the other hand, someone is asking to slow down and pulls the reins violently. The wheels creak and cracks appear on the edges of the carriage. People are neither romantic nor heartless, they are timid and brave. When I read Don Quixote, I didn't feel the romanticism of knights. I only felt a strong sense of cowardice. What is romance? Romance is the courage to see clearly all the pressure of reality and continue to pursue dreams. It is the greatness that a group of less than twenty people dares to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky. When one day we recognize the world clearly and the nihilistic nature of life and continue to pursue our own ideals that we know is almost impossible, I think we can defeat cowardice. This process is not easy. We will act according to the real rules of this society, but we will remember where we came from. When we can write the rules, we no longer need the armor of the good horse and the cool cloak of the knight. We can point to the empty front and say, "Look, the giant has fallen." Yes, it has really fallen. The letter conveys the feelings, the words clarify the aspirations, and I hope to encourage you all. I hope that one day, heaven and earth will work together, and the heroes will be free. I also hope that the author can one day point to where he came from and say that the giant fell.
It is full of the author's dissatisfaction with reality. When you are in a good mood, you can read it to feel depressed and settle down! This book is really a masterpiece. There are more than 30 pictures. I can see that the protagonist is a bit irrational. I can only say that idealists are irrational. All in all, this book is good.
