Has Traditional Fantasy Really Fallen Off? I Still Haven’t Found a Good One.
I'm tired of the new-style fantasy novels. I miss the old-fashioned, traditional kind. A golden finger is fine, but no System. Rebirth is fine, but no transmigration. Preferably no female lead or just one, and the protagonist should work hard on his own and ultimately succeed.

This is the first time I have seen such a detailed and logical book in a male video. In the beginning, Zou Chu was a very standard gangster, cautious but glib. After coming into contact with the method of seizing the body, he did not want to use this to dominate, he just wanted to live a better life. In order to avoid spoilers, I can only say that every transformation in Seizing Body is a major change in his personality. I burst into tears during the episode, and I felt sorry for him. I knew clearly that there was a cycle of cause and effect, and that if he took advantage of the body, he would have to pay the price, but it still hurt. His efforts in the episode ended in such a sad ending. The people in the Ye Mansion are important beings. They are all so good, flesh and blood yet extremely gentle. It is not my fault that Zou Chu has fallen. I, a reader, have also fallen, accompanying them in happiness and pain. After reading more than a hundred chapters, I really hope that everyone can have a better ending and live well in this troubled world where the building is about to collapse.
After reading it, I was reminded of Zhuangzi's Theory of Equality of Things, where heaven and earth coexist with me, and all things are one with me. I hope there really is such a formation in that world. First of all, I want to praise the author's great conception. I am amazed at the ingenuity of the conception and the reasonableness of the plot. Finally, I did not expect that the theme would be sublimated to such a high level. It is very speculative and has great stamina. Then the author's writing style is very delicate, and each character is vividly written. There is no sense of disobedience after the death, and the different positions and thoughts of the small characters to the big characters are written out. Therefore, the transformation of the male protagonist, everyone's thoughts, and even the subtleties of human nature all seem so reasonable. Finally, I'm waiting for the author's next article. Can you write a prequel to Xiao Po Guan? I want to know more about the story of Xie Hua and Xiao Po Guan [crying]
I feel that the protagonist is not only not bad, but also very active and hard-working. If it were me, he would be much darker and lazier, and he could seize the body. Then it should be much easier to erase the NPC's mind or read the NPC's memory. I feel that you should not be emotional. Just do your own thing on the road to immortality. After you have taken the body, why do you still have so many useless emotions? The most important emotions and the memory of the original person should be protected. There is no point in falling in love. Love should only be reserved for those who need it. No sacrifice can be too big to bear, and no betrayal can be small enough to be forgiven. If it were me, it would be much darker. I won't say why it is so dark. Let's make up our own minds... I can only say that the protagonist is too kind-hearted. Those who don't know may think it is the result of twelve years of education in China.
A philosophical fable about "self" by a selected author In the trend of fantasy novels generally pursuing "system blessing" and "travel counterattack", "Seizing the Body" goes against the routine and uses the extreme setting of "Seizing the Body" to weave a profound picture of human nature, desire and identity. The journey of the protagonist Zou Chu, from a villain to a lost soul, constitutes a fable full of philosophical speculation. The "body seizing" technique at the core of the novel is far more than just an ability setting in a fantasy world. It is essentially a wonderful metaphor about "getting something for nothing" and "self-replacement". Zou Chu initially regarded it as an artifact that could change his destiny, believing that by plundering other people's lives - whether it was power, wealth or emotional relationships - he could fill his own shortcomings and reach the other side of happiness. This accurately hits a common desire fantasy in real society: the desire to instantly occupy the superior position of others. However, the author's brilliance is that he allows this "success" to quickly reveal its ferocious backside. Every successful seizure is not a victory, but a stripping and exile of the "true self". The more bodies Zou Chu occupies and the more prominent his identity, the faster the original "Zou Chu" dissipates. He indulged in playing one life after another, but could never find his way home. This core contradiction of "gain means loss" constitutes the tightest and most attractive tension in the novel, and also makes the title "Seize the Body a Momentary Refreshment" full of ironic tragic power. The creation of the protagonist Zou Chu breaks the halo of traditional fantasy protagonists. He is not a born hero or villain, but an ordinary person who was twisted by the sudden and huge power. His greed, calculation and luck are very realistic. Readers may despise his actions, but they can understand his original choice to some extent. The depth of the novel is reflected in the delicate portrayal of his gradual alienation process. When he discovers that the emotions he has plundered are nothing but the mirror, and the power he has seized is built on quicksand, the confusion and panic of having nowhere to turn to are far more fatal than the blow of any external enemy. He fell into a classic existential dilemma: after having countless "others" in his life, the answer to the question "Who am I?" Has become out of reach. His struggle thus transcends simple moral repentance and rises to the pursuit of the essence of existence. The author's writing style switches freely between describing the roughness of the market and the weirdness of the spiritual world during the struggle, especially the rendering of the state of "knowing that everything in front of you is false, and can no longer escape", which is very graphic and psychologically penetrating. The story does not stop at the level of curiosity. The core of the story inherits the cautionary tradition of "If you greed for too much, you will lose" and "Those who overstep the mark will be punished" from classical fables, it also endows it with modern psychology and existential thinking. It asks: If all the roles, relationships and labels given by society are stripped away, what is left of a person's essence? Is the life gained through giving up something just an exquisite self-deception? "Seizing the Body for a Momentary Refreshment" is a work that picks readers. It is not suitable for readers who are looking for brainless pleasure and quick upgrades. Its "exhilaration" is buried in the intellectual thinking and the trembling of getting better, and its reward is the long-term meditation after closing the book. For readers who are tired of templated plots and long for more profound human descriptions and sparks of thought within a fantasy framework, this work is a cup of strong and bitter tea worth sipping. Whether Zou Chu's "journey to the sun" can finally break through the fog caused by the robbery and find his own ray of sunshine is not only the unfinished suspense in the book, but also perhaps the question the author throws to every reader about how to settle themselves in life. Recommended to all readers who are tired of the same leveling up and fighting monsters and want to taste some different "flavors". Where is the end point of this "Journey to the Sun"? I can't wait to catch up on the update and want to find the answer with Zou Chu.
1. The method of seizing the body is developed in a step-by-step exploratory manner, with a sophisticated narrative. 2. The male protagonist creates a vivid three-dimensional character, with flesh and blood, and real emotions. He acts in the market but values love and justice, and adheres to morality without knowing it. The male protagonist experiences other people's lives and obtains the feelings he lacked before. The emotional portrayal is delicate and true, and it is easy to create a sense of empathy and resonance. The character's personality, psychology, and details are accurately written, fitting the character, and the character is vivid and not empty. 3. The plot of the story is very comfortable to watch, and there is nothing uncomfortable about it. It's not filled with fancy words, but the content is very contagious.
I couldn't imagine seeing this book on Tomato. I was really shocked by the delicateness of the emotional descriptions. Through rich psychological descriptions, the protagonist's image and character are full of growth. Especially in the subject of body snatching, it is difficult to naturally and skillfully separate and overlap the psychological states of the protagonist himself and the person who has been snatched away, but this book does it. The end of the first volume of this book is even touching and tear-jerking due to its ups and downs of plot and delicate emotions.
It's a very interesting book, very imaginative. The writing is also great, the fighting scenes are wonderfully described, and the various aristocratic families, spiritual practices, spiritual mines, and business dealings are all written very rigorously. The male protagonist is not the kind of arrogant pretentious monster, he is flesh and blood, and it can be seen that he has been growing. By chance, he got the ability to seize bodies, which means he can take over other people's bodies to practice. He wanted to use this ability to make himself stronger and gain a better life. After two seizures, he gained the company of his wife, the care of his sister, the love of his parents, and the honor of being regarded as a hero, which was also missing in his own life experience. He cherishes this kind of life very much, but at the same time he feels guilty. He has been torn between possessing and leaving. Finally, he chooses to protect the family of the person who took the body and gained the courage to continue taking the body. Even after being framed, the person who took his body did not run away, but embarked on a journey to protect his sister, find the truth and avenge him. It can be said to be a comprehensive spiritual growth for a little person from body to mind. Highly recommended! ! !
Tied! 😋Although it's a day late, I hope the author will work hard in the new year and earn more than 10,000 copies a month from code wording, which will be a bestseller! ! ! This is a very novel subject matter that I have ever seen. It is told from the perspective of a young loser who has learned the art of seizing a body. Who knows that he is seizing a body and a gangster at the same time? At first, the protagonist was positioned as a villain and a walk-on character, but as the author's introduction said, it is a story about a dark mouse embarking on a journey to the sun. You can raise the protagonist as a little mouse. (Hey) There are a lot of psychological descriptions in the book after the protagonist seizes the bodies of different people. It is not purely bad as I thought. He seizes other people's bodies and then indulges in destroying other people's lives and feels at ease. Except when he seizes the body of the first person, he did something that made me feel: This is inappropriate, but it is also acceptable to assume the identity of the protagonist. After reading this, it is actually a bit understandable and even a bit sympathetic to the male protagonist. Leaving aside the little bastard, he is essentially a person who longs for and cherishes emotions. Through taking away the body, he has experienced many emotions that he may never have had before, such as family, friendship, love, etc. It doesn't matter if a little mouse has not entered the cupboard with the cake, but once he gets in and tastes the deliciousness of the cake, who is willing to leave? This is what I understand from the title of the book: it is easy to take it away, but the emotions gained after taking it away are difficult to let go. The plot is also very smooth. I thought that the protagonist's acquisition of the body will involve him in a big conspiracy about the body. He may be the fuse or the straw. In fact, there is a conspiracy, but the protagonist is just a peripheral, or drifting, dust-like character in the conspiracy. But instead, the protagonist who possesses the body-seizing technique becomes a bit decent in this conspiracy. The right body-seizing can not only do bad things but also do good things! So I started to fantasize about the protagonist overthrowing the tyrannical rule, seeking power and usurping the throne, establishing himself as king and returning the world to the world (eh? Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing what happens to the protagonist in the third volume! I also hope that he can finally bask in the sunshine calmly and have the happiness he wants. Also, the author is really good at making jokes, haha, it will be very interesting once you get it! There are also cute kittens 🐱❤️!
The overall story is quite gentle and delicate, and it also analyzes the word "seize the body" from a gentle perspective. It is really a breath of fresh air in the general environment (), and it is quite good as an adjustment.
Zou Chu chose the body-seizing technique at the beginning, which actually surprised me, but when I think about it carefully, it makes sense. A person at the bottom of society may cling to something that can make his life better. This is human nature. But he thought that by robbing other people's lives, he would be able to move towards the bright future, but he didn't know that every time he snatched someone else's life, he would cover the soil of his own soul with a layer of other people's shadows. After all, what the sun shines on is the scenery that does not belong to him. Through Zou Chu's perspective, I can see the temptation and pleasure of seizing a body, and gradually notice the cracks in his narrative - the emotional resonances he tries to ignore, the involuntary continuation of habits, and the inexplicable attachment to the memory fragments of the original owner. These cracks eventually expanded into an abyss that swallowed him. In fact, the most successful seizure may be the most complete seizure. The author can completely write about that person's life and original emotions from the perspective of the person whose body was taken away after each "body seizure", which is really amazing! Looking forward to the next plot! I hope that even if Zou Chu's starting point may not be that good, his good deeds will still be recognized.
