Warning: You are reading a novel that is manipulated by the "author".
The protagonist Chen Yuan has awakened. He discovered that his life was a book. The author was sitting in his study thousands of kilometers away, drinking instant coffee and typing on the keyboard to decide his life or death.
"Chapter 3, the protagonist was robbed."
"Chapter 50, the death of the protagonist's brother Musa."
"In the ending, the protagonist dies alone."
Chen Yuan was not willing to be a puppet, so he grabbed a "pen" that could modify the plot.
But the rules are cruel: the ink is limited, and you can only modify the items in the "story scene", but cannot change the laws of physics.
In order to survive, he started a thrilling game:
Change the recipe on the menu and teach the black boss lady how to make "spicy oil";
Engraving words on the engine to rewrite the countdown to brother's death;
Outsmart the police at checkpoints and survive with only the remaining ink.
Late at night, the author's scattered thoughts came from the radio:
"The editor said no... Traffic has dropped... I can't pay my mortgage..."
It turns out that not only the protagonist is struggling, but the author is also wallowing in the quagmire of life.
For two men trapped on the "red dirt road", a conversation about fate and survival began.
