   While novel, it seems to aim for literature. It subverts the elitist heroism of traditional fantasy with a people-centered historical perspective, deeply integrating Marxist revolutionary narrative, dialectical materialism, and Eastern fantasy. It's not merely a slogan-based label; it fully integrates the core themes of localizing revolution and ideological enlightenment into its worldview, character development, and plot. The work reconstructs the cultivation system of "qi" using quantum physics and modern military science, achieving a self-consistent loop between Eastern philosophy and modern science, breaking free from the idealistic trap of "spiritual energy being omnipotent." It rejects the power-of-the-rich logic of fast-paced, feel-good novels, focusing instead on protecting the common people. It uses fantasy stories to carry profound reflections on the essence of revolution and the path to civilization, combining the narrative tension of online novels with the intellectual depth of serious literature. Note: The early part of the story focuses on world-building and character development; the focus only becomes clearer later.

    "The Play Next Door": A cautionary fable for adults - after reading the five stories, I can't help but want to recommend it to everyone. 1. Origin Half a month ago, a friend gave me a book and said, "Look at this, it's interesting." I took it and took a look. The title of the book was "The Play Next Door" and the subtitle was "A Collection of Career Stories." I flipped through a few pages without paying much attention. I thought it was nothing more than a mish-mash of strange folk stories, just for entertainment. But once I turned it over, I couldn't let it go. In five consecutive days, I read five stories. Each story is short, contains tens of thousands of words, and tells a story about a person, a profession, and a life. But after reading each story, I had to close the book and sit there for a long time. I want to recommend this book to everyone. It's not because its stories are so twisty and bizarre - to be honest, these stories are very bland and don't have any earth-shattering plots. It's because, hidden in these ordinary stories, are some of the things we need most in our time. 2. Five stories, five kinds of character The first story: Manuscript "handwriting appraiser" His name is Xu Mo, an idle scholar who copied books in the Hanlin Academy. He has a unique skill - he can identify who wrote it from stroke to stroke. Not relying on feeling, not relying on eyesight, but relying on the "handwriting feature database" that he spent twenty years building. In that era, the appraisal of calligraphy and paintings relied entirely on "feeling". You tell the truth and I tell lies. We argue until we are red-faced and no one can convince the other. Xu Mo didn't argue, he just showed evidence - look at the word "Zig", when Su Dongpo wrote it, he had to pause for a moment before turning back. It's not in this painting, so it wasn't written by Su Dongpo. Simple, direct and irrefutable. He said something that I have remembered for a long time: "Feelings can be deceiving, but physical traces of handwriting cannot." The second story: The person who set the agenda for the academy's "good talk". His name was Chen Jinren, the mountain director of Bailudong Academy. When he was there, the topics he talked about every month were solid and solid, taking into account re-reading of classics and cutting-edge discussions. Later, a young man came, specializing in exotic topics - talking about overseas strange stories, gods and ghosts, and anecdotes about wild history. The audience was full and everyone applauded. Chen Jinren was run away. When he came back a few years later, he found that the academic atmosphere in the academy had deteriorated and there were very few listeners. He was invited to give a lecture at Zhongzhang. The first lecture was entitled: "What is the foundation of learning". That day, the seats were packed. Every sentence he said seemed to be talking about today: "Why can those old books and old truths be passed down? Because they have been verified by thousands of people and filtered over thousands of years. What you think is novel today will not be new tomorrow; but those old truths will still be the same in a thousand years." The third story: Map "Copycat" His name is Shen Mo, a framer in Hangzhou. He copied the ancient map, even the defects and stains on the map. Some people say he is stupid, saying what are those rags doing imitating it? He said: Because that could also be information. Sure enough, hundreds of years later, a geographer used his copy to discover clues to the changes in the ancient city from those wormholes, water stains, and mildew spots. He also said something: "The map is the memory of the land. Memory has scars, and it is also history." The fourth story: Academic "rumors" to prove witnesses His name is Chen Yanghui, a poor scholar in Nanjing. He specifically searched for false anecdotes and misquotes that were circulating, found one, wrote a short article, and posted it on the door of the bookstore. Some people think he has offended others, while others accuse him of being nosy. Later, in an imperial examination, the question involved an "allusion", which was actually a rumor. Those candidates who answered the questions based on the rumors all failed. His collection of corroborating essays was sold out. He still said the same thing: "Academia is like a garden. If weeds are not removed, good trees will not grow." The fifth story: The guardian of the "forbidden books" in thought. His name is Lu Chenzhou, a junior official in the Ministry of Punishment. When ordered to burn banned books, he secretly hid the next one after burning one. Hidden in the wall, hidden under the bed, hidden behind the rice vat. It can last for decades. Colleagues burned all to show their loyalty, those who were promoted were promoted, and those who were made rich became rich. He is still the humble Yuanwailang. After many years of open-mindedness, banned books were unblocked, and original editions became scarce, the books he collected became a treasure trove of research. When he was old, he stroked the yellowed pages and said: "What I burn is the order, and what I keep is the fire of civilization." 3. Why are these stories worth reading? Reason 1: They are talking about the past, but they are actually talking about the present. These five stories are all set in the Ming Dynasty. But as you read, you will find that they are talking about what we are doing today. Isn't Xu Mo's "handwriting identification" today's data analysis? Don't trust feelings, trust evidence; don't rely on experience, rely on characteristics. Isn't this the core way of thinking in our big data era? Isn't Chen Jinren's "talking about issues" the trend of today's academic world? Those who are curious, exciting and eye-catching can always attract the most people; while those who are down-to-earth and work hard are often left in the cold. But at the end of the excitement is emptiness, and in the depths of loneliness lies true knowledge. Isn't Shen Mo's "map copying" what today's information preservation is? Those seemingly useless data, those overlooked details, those "flawed" records often hide the most valuable information. We make choices for future generations, and we throw away things we think are useless, but who are we to make decisions for them? Isn't Chen Yanghui's "refuting rumors" the same as today's online rumor refuting? Fake allusions, fake anecdotes, and fake famous quotes spread quickly and widely. You go to verify and clarify, but people still think you are meddlesome. But if it is fake, it is fake, no matter how widespread it is, it will still be fake. Isn't Lu Chenzhou's "Guarding the Forbidden Books" today's cultural inheritance? Some things are currently being denied, rejected, and asked to be "burned." But who can guarantee that the right and wrong of the moment will be the eternal right and wrong? Who can be sure that what is burned today will not be wanted by future generations? Reason 2: They are writing about "professions", but in fact they are writing about "people". These five stories are all about "professions" - a handwriting appraiser, a speaker who can set an agenda, a map copyist, a witness who refutes academic rumors, and a guardian of banned books. But after reading it, what you remember is not the "skills" of those professions, but the "character" of those people. Xu Mo's character is "Don't believe in feelings, believe in evidence." Chen Jinren's character is "not to pursue novelty, but to pursue truth". Shen Mo's character is "never abandon flaws and abandon falsehoods". Chen Yanghui's character is that he is "not afraid of offending people and leaving behind fake goods." Lu Chenzhou's character is "Don't blindly follow the present, believe in the long-term". These people are all little people. Xu Mo was a copywriter in the Hanlin Academy, Chen Jinren was a teacher in the academy, Shen Mo was a framer, Chen Yanghui was a book stall owner, and Lu Chenzhou was a minor official in the Ministry of Punishment. They have no power, no wealth, no prominent position. But there is something in them that is more precious than power, wealth, and status. That kind of thing is called "belief". They believe that truth is more important than feelings. They believe that authenticity is more important than novelty. They believe that wholeness is more important than perfection. They believe that clarification is more important than silence. They believe that inheritance is more important than conformity. These beliefs made them seem out of place in that era. But it was these beliefs that allowed them to do things that traveled through time and remain today. Reason 3: They are "borrowing the past to satirize the present", but they are more than just "satire". There are many things written about "borrowing the past to satirize the present", but most of them are finished after satirizing. After reading the book, readers will curse a few times, sigh a few times, and then continue to do whatever they need to do. "The Show Next Door" is different. It is also satirical, but it is more than satirical. At the end of each story, it provides a "warning" and a "core moral". It doesn't just let you finish cursing, it makes you think about it: What can I do? Reading Xu Mo's story, you may wonder: Do I believe too much in feelings? When I judge something, do I look for evidence? Reading Chen Jinren's story, you will wonder: Am I also attracted by those "novel" things? When I read books, read articles, and listen to lectures, do I go there for the fun or for the true knowledge? Reading Shen Mo's story, you will wonder: Do I often make choices for future generations? Do I really have the right to throw away things that I think are "useless"? Reading Chen Yanghui's story, you will wonder: Have I also spread those "false allusions"? Have I checked the sources of the "famous quotes" and "anecdotes" I forwarded? Reading Lu Chenzhou's story, you will wonder: Am I too obedient to the current standards? Are those things that are denied and rejected really useless? It makes you reflect, ask yourself, and see yourself outside of the story. 4. Why do I have to recommend it? Having said so much, there is actually only one reason: our era needs such stories so much. We live in an era of information explosion, surrounded by countless "novelties" every day. But we care less and less about "reality". We live in a noisy era, everyone is eager to express, but we are increasingly unwilling to "seek confirmation." We live in an era of changing standards. What is "correct" today may be "wrong" tomorrow, but we have less and less "faith". Xu Mo, Chen Jinren, Shen Mo, Chen Yanghui, and Lu Chenzhou, these five people, in their own way, tell us some simple truths: - The truth is more important than feelings. ——Truth is more important than novelty. ——Completeness is more important than perfection. ——Clarification is more important than silence. ——Inheritance is more important than obedience. These principles are cliché. But the old truth is the truth that has been filtered by time. They will not become obsolete, they will not become ineffective, and they will not become inapplicable just because times have changed. As you read these stories, you will find that they are not teaching you, but reminding you. Remind you of things you always knew but gradually forgot. Remind you of things that you originally believed in, but gradually became shaken by. Remind you of those things you originally wanted to do but gradually gave up on. 5. Write at the end Yesterday, I read these five stories again. After reading Lu Chenzhou's last words - "What I burn is the order and what I keep is the fire of civilization", I suddenly remembered something. Last year a friend asked me: What is the use of studying? It can't be eaten as food. I didn't answer at the time. Now I think I can answer him. Studying is not for eating. Reading is so that you can still remember those old truths when everyone says "burn it". Reading is so that when you are surrounded by "novelty", you can still distinguish what is true and what is false. Reading is so that when you make choices for future generations, you can still ask yourself: Do I have this right? "The Play Next Door" is not a "pleasant" book. It's not exciting, not novel, or sensational. It is an "awakening" book. After reading this, you will be more awake, think about some things more clearly, and make some decisions more clearly. That's enough. If you want, go read these five stories. Read Xu Mo and see how he recognizes the truth from each stroke. Read Chen Jinren and see how he kept the foundation of knowledge in a glitzy era. Read Shen Mo and see how he sees history from the imperfections and stains. Read Chen Yanghui and see how he refuted rumors and sought the truth despite being infamous. Read Lu Chenzhou and see how he spends his whole life guarding those "fires" abandoned by the times. What they do, we may not be able to do. But those things they have - seeking truth, keeping upright, not giving up, speaking out, inheriting - each of us can do a little bit in our own position. A little bit is enough. Just like Lu Chenzhou said: Although the fire is small, it can sustain a thousand lights. --- "The Play Next Door" is a cautionary fable for adults. It doesn't tell great truths, it just tells stories. But after the story is told, you will naturally understand the truth. I think this is the best book.

I was even planning to give up reading novels, but then I saw the first one and it was so good that I remembered to check out the author halfway through. And when I saw the author, oh, it's her again! It felt like running into an old friend. [Admiration][Admiration]
