I have now read Chapter 7, the bloody North End, which is so good. The end of this battle was tragic and regrettable. All three brothers of the Shen family died on the battlefield, but their courage, anger, and unyieldingness were impressive. The author's writing style was delicate, as if he was on the battlefield, looking forward to the revenge of the fifth son.
There is no golden finger, no system, no talent for reading and ten lines, and no cookie-cutter steps such as salt making, ice making, sugar making, glass making, cement making, etc. Reading and practicing martial arts all depend on the protagonist's hard work day and night, and he becomes an official in the imperial examination step by step.
I have read these chapters word for word, it is very well written, it has cost me tears, I am so moved, author, come on, I finally found a novel that I can read, come on, come on, keep reading [smile] The back part must be exciting, it's so beautiful.
It's quite beautiful. The writing is exquisite and the characters are full-bodied. I've been reading it for a whole day.
It feels pretty good, the plot is quite novel
No one recommends this book, but it's really good!
This undergraduate essay is really beautiful! Recommended!
The content is okay, but I want to see the male protagonist recognize his ancestors and return to his clan, which seems to be different from what the author wants to write.
It's beautiful, it's beautiful, please don't be fooled.
There are a lot of people pushing me, so I can't scold you. Bye bye, the protagonist of Water Chapter 7 is not written at all. The outline is mostly messy
