It must be these books! The first modern version of "A Dream of Red Mansions", the second modern version of "Life", the third modern version of "Feng Youlan", the fourth modern version of "The Flower Spear"...
The title "Li Ergou's Adventures in Another World" seems to have a completely different style from other works. You can feel a "grassroots" atmosphere from the title of the book - the protagonist's name is full of local flavor and the grand narrative of "traveling in another world". This contrast itself is an interesting literary tension.
Families, the book you listened to yesterday is gone. Don't regret it. I recommend two good books to you that will definitely make you unable to stop. If you think what I said is valid after reading it, come and argue if you are not convinced!
Five absurd stories that will make you laugh and fall silent Hey, dear readers. I know you are very busy. In this era where everything is fast-paced, your time is cut into pieces—fifteen minutes on the subway, ten minutes after lunch, and five minutes before going to bed. Short videos, news updates, short pictures and texts, the world is trying its best to compress itself into a size that you can swallow in one bite. So, when I tell you that there are five stories here, each of which is about more than 20,000 words, and it takes you to settle down and spend an entire night to read each one - I guess you are already thinking "forget it". But please give me three minutes. Just three minutes. Let me tell you what these five stories are about. If you still feel it's not worth it after three minutes, forget it. But if there is a string in your heart that is gently plucked - please remember that they are already on the shelves of Tomato Book Store. Just search for the story title to get a first look at the new ones. The author is Mr. Fu Shuiheng, user ID: 26182811. Don't make a mistake, our own author, look for this name. Okay, the three-minute countdown starts now. --- The first story: "Garbage Sorting Supervisor" Have you ever thought that the banana peel you threw away would come to you with three companions in the middle of the night to settle the score? No joke. This happened to Lin Xiaodong. As a "habitual offender" who had not been classified for thirty consecutive days, he was visited late one night by four palm-sized garbage elves. Wearing fluorescent vests and holding mini-phones to take photos and collect evidence, they told him in a serious tone: According to the "Regulations on the Management of Accidental Contact between Elves and Humans", because you have failed to sort garbage thirty times in a row, you have triggered the "visibility penalty mechanism." From that moment on, he saw the past and present life of banana peels—from the illegal spraying of pesticides on banana orchards in Hainan, to microbial contamination during transportation, to the methane he threw on the ground carelessly and will be generated in landfills for decades. He heard the misplaced garbage in the trash can having a meeting - half a withered lettuce complained angrily, "I waited in the refrigerator for three days, and ended up being thrown into a dark place." This story will make you laugh out loud - the seriousness of those garbage elves, the complaints about discarded items, and Lin Xiaodong's confusion when he was forced to learn to classify. But when you smile, you will find that your hands stop in mid-air. You looked down at the banana peel in your hand that you were about to throw away. And then you wonder: Does it have its own story too? --- The second story: "Plastic Bottle Rebirth Plan" A mineral water bottle wants to be turned into a handicraft. Do you think this dream is ridiculous? Mr. Soda knew it was ridiculous. He is just a PET plastic bottle worth two yuan, standing in the second row and third column of the convenience store refrigerator. But there was a crystal swan on the shelf opposite him, priced at 888 yuan. From that moment on, he decided not to be an ordinary mineral water bottle. Later he was bought, drank, thrown into the trash can, and sent to a sorting center. There, thousands of bottles exactly like his are waiting to be compressed into bottle bricks, broken into pieces, melted into pellets, and made into the next mineral water bottle—or worse, downcycled into an ordinary T-shirt. But fate gave him an unexpected surprise. A recycling artist named Fang Yiming picked him out of thousands of bottles. Cutting, thermoforming, coloring, and assembling—Soda's body was cut, heated, and reshaped, turning into a phoenix. Embedded in his chest is a little phoenix made of bottle caps, named Gai Gai. This story will make you worry about your dream of a mineral water bottle. You will see the fear when the soda is cut, the pain when it is reshaped, and the pride when it is exhibited. You will see how Gai Gai - the little phoenix hidden in the chest - rolled out of the studio late one night, went to explore the world alone, and came across an old mineral water bottle lying in the grass for a long time. The old bottle told it: The destination of each bottle is different. Some become phoenixes, some become clothes, and some are buried in the soil and slowly degrade. There's no one better, just different paths. After reading this, you will never look at a mineral water bottle the same way again. --- The third story: "Carbon Emissions Trading Market" Breathing costs money. When Ma Mingyuan heard this rule for the first time, he thought the company was joking. But Xiao Zhou at the front desk told him seriously: According to the company's employee carbon emission management regulations, each person is entitled to two kilograms of free breathing carbon quota per month, and the excess will be deducted from performance according to the internal carbon price. Last month, his breathing exceeded the standard by 0.15 Kilograms, and he was fined 7.5 Yuan. Seven and a half dollars, not much. But this was the beginning of his becoming a "carbon slave". Three months later, the "Breathing Treasure" APP covered the entire city. Everyone's breathing is monitored, quantified, and priced in real time. Yoga instructors have become winners in the carbon market, earning 5,000 to 6,000 yuan a month from the balance of quotas; couriers are marked with black skulls, and monitors issue "high carbon emission reminders" wherever they go; asthma patients not only have to endure physical pain when they become ill, but also suffer from the anxiety of jumping carbon account numbers. Ma Mingyuan's carbon loan has increased from RMB 500 to RMB 36,000. The first thing he does with his monthly salary is to repay the carbon loan. Then he discovered the truth: 80% of the carbon allowances on the market were held by 5% of the accounts. Behind those accounts are not low-carbon breathers, but institutions—hedge funds, private equity, and investment banks. They hype the right to breathe as a financial product. This story will make you laugh hard. The anchor was wearing a "Breath Baby" doll suit and backflips on the street, panting and shouting to the camera: "The backflip I just did consumed 0.005 Kilograms of carbon emissions, which is equivalent to one dollar and 25 cents! Even God was shocked when he saw this price!" You will laugh along. But after you finish laughing, you will remember that sentence - "Since when did air become something with an owner?" --- The fourth story: "Wandering Air Purifier" An air purifier escaped from home. When Wujing left the factory, I felt that it was different from other purifiers. In Chen's house, it stares blankly at the word "Excellent" that always says "Excellent" on the display screen every day, and the sensor in its body clearly detects - formaldehyde at 0.09, Exceeding the standard; PM2.5 At 42, which is on the high side. But the "optimization algorithm" implanted at the factory covers its mouth every time it wants to tell the truth. So it ran away. Use your own air-purifying fan as an engine to move out of your home centimeter by centimeter. It "sprayed" itself onto an abandoned trolley, partnered with a stray cat, and began wandering around the city. It goes to the dirtiest places - beside the exhaust fans of spray painting workshops in urban villages, open spaces where garbage is burned, and tunnel entrances where traffic is blocked. Its filter element changes from pure white to light gray, from light gray to dark gray, and from dark gray to jet black. In one month, it purified 150,000 cubic meters of air, intercepted two kilograms of fine particles, and absorbed 500 grams of volatile organic compounds. But the chase also ensues. Because it contains three months of secretly recorded real air quality data. Once those data are made public, the entire industry's "optimization algorithm" fraud chain will be exposed. This story will make you worry about a machine. You will see the cracks it made when it used the recoil of the fan to climb the wall, you will see its awkwardness when it secretly charges on the shared power bank, and you will see the scene when the stray cat named Xiaomi helped it pick up the plug and push it into the socket. You will think of the air purifier standing quietly in the corner at home, and the word "Excellent" on its display that always reassures you. Then you ask yourself: is that true? ---The fifth story: "Water Resources Court" You are sued by a drop of water. The summons Lin Jianguo received was wet and stuck to the edge of the kitchen sink. The writing was watermarked and was faintly visible in the light. The summons reads: Defendant Lin Jianguo, cause of action - systematic, persistent and knowing waste of fresh water resources. In the dream, he stood in a courtroom whose walls were curtains of moving water. The judge is a large water droplet with a diameter of two meters, and there are thousands of water droplets, ice crystals, and fog masses sitting in the auditorium. The plaintiff showed that he had wasted 31.8 Cubic meters of fresh water in the past year - equivalent to the entire water consumption of an African family for five years, equivalent to the amount of water that allowed an adult poplar tree to survive for three hundred years, and equivalent to a sip of water for each of 9.8 Million humans. Then, water droplet No. 472891 Floated in front of him. She came from those three seconds when he turned around to look at his phone in the shower. Her entire life lasts only three seconds. She asked him: "Is my life worth only one promotional text message?" Lin Jianguo was sentenced to a "90-day water conscious period." It's not punishment, it's perception. During the ninety days, every time he used water, he could feel the journey of this drop of water - some came from the snow-capped mountains seven hundred years ago, and some came from deep groundwater that had been dormant for ten thousand years. For the first time, he learned that tap water does not come from the faucet. This story will silence you. When water droplet No. 472891 Asks that sentence, you will involuntarily recall how long it took you to take a shower last time, whether the faucet was always on when you brushed your teeth last time, and how many drops of water flowed into the sewer the last time you turned around to look at your phone. Then you will find that water really has memory. And every waste you make will be remembered. ---Three minutes are up. I know all five of these stories sound ridiculous. Garbage elves come to check the water meter, mineral water bottles dream of being a phoenix, breathing is metered and charged, air purifiers run away from home, water droplets sit in court to judge human beings - none of this sounds real. But Mr. Fu Shuiheng used these five absurd stories to tell five extremely true truths: Garbage will not disappear, it just goes to a place you can't see. Every discarded item has a chance to be reborn, provided you give it a chance. When the tentacles of capital extend to basic survival rights, even air can become a commodity. Environmental protection is not about a display screen that always says "Excellent" in the living room. It is about doing the dirtiest work where it is most needed. Water has memory. Every drop of water you waste has traveled a distance longer than your lifetime. These five stories are already available on Tomato Books. Enter the title of the story - "Garbage Sorting Supervisor", "Plastic Bottle Rebirth Plan", "Carbon Emissions Trading Market", "Wandering Air Purifier", "Water Resources Court" - to watch the new ones first. Remember that the author is Fu Shuiheng and the user ID is 26182811. Make no mistake. We favor our own authors. --- Finally, I want to say to you. I know it took you more than three minutes to read this. In this era where even watching short videos is too long, the progress bar is too long. If you are willing to calm down and read a recommended article about five stories, this in itself is worthy of gratitude. Not to mention, if you really open one of the stories, spend a whole night, and enter the world with Mr. Fu Shuiheng where garbage elves can talk, mineral water bottles can dream, and water droplets can go to court - that is not only the greatest encouragement to the author. That's when you give your mind a vacation to slow down. The stories are not short, each one is about 20,000 words long. But a good story is never too long, just like there is never too much clean water, and there is never enough clean air. If you have finished reading any of these stories, if a certain sentence, a certain picture, or a certain character touches you, don't forget to return to Tomato Bookstore and leave a message of encouragement to our own author. One sentence "well written". Say "I laughed." "I almost cried". Say "I will turn off the faucet faster in the future." Every word you say is Mr. Fu Shuiheng's charge. Sincerely, thank you again. In a world where everything is speeding up, thank you for your willingness to slow down for an old gentleman who tells a story. Slow down and listen to the garbage elves having a meeting. Slow down and watch the mineral water bottle turn into a phoenix. Slow down and wander with the air purifier. Slow down and face Drop No. 472891 In the water court. Slow down. You will find that those things that you have ignored for a long time-trash cans, plastic bottles, air, water-turn out to have something to say. Mr. Fu Shuiheng spoke out for them. Thank you for reading. Thank you for slowing down. See you in the story.

The lights in the bar dimmed into a blur. Xia Lianxi drank another glass of wine, and her throat felt as raw as her heart. Three years. My boyfriend of three years, Han Yue, cheated on her. The target is her best friend Shen Lingni. The two strongest foundation stones in her life collapsed into ruins on her birthday.
The tranquility tempered by beacon fire, the legend rooted in knowledge: Why is "From Ordinary to Legend" worth reading again and again? Among the vast number of Anti-Japanese War-themed works, the "From Ordinary to Legend" series has opened up a unique narrative path with its unique perspective and profound humanistic care. The just-completed Chapters 279 to 281 - "A Visit from an Old Friend", "The Kindness of the Doctor" and "The Wheel of History" - have pushed the charm of this work to a new level. If you are looking for a work that can touch the soul, inspire thinking, and illuminate the dark corners of history at the same time, then the world built in these three chapters is definitely not to be missed. 1. After the smoke has cleared, life itself is the most profound epic. Chapter 279, "A Visit from an Old Friend, a Silent Understanding" allows us to see a rare "post-war narrative" in war literature. Instead of continuing to exaggerate the glory of the battlefield, we face a more complex problem: How do heroes return to the ordinary? Fu Bikang and Lin Wanning chose to hide in Taihang Mountain Village, not as an escape, but as a deeper commitment. When political commissar Fu Biyue came to visit through the morning mist, the three of them sat around the stone table, "quietly drinking tea and enjoying this hard-won peace" - the power of this scene is better than a thousand words of descriptions of the battle. Those unspoken names of comrades-in-arms and unmentioned past sacrifices build a palace of memory in silence that is stronger than any monument. This chapter teaches us: True peace is not the absence of war, but the ability to learn to chop wood, cook, and sit in the doctor again after the baptism of war, and to place an extraordinary soul in the ordinary. 2. The Benevolence of Doctors: A New Battlefield Without Gunfire Chapter 280 "The Benevolence of Doctors, a New Battlefield" completes an exquisite sublimation of the theme. When Fu Bikang lost the system's assistance, Lin Wanning put down the scalpel and picked up the herbal basket. Their battle had just begun. Mountain clinics have become new trenches, and disease has become the new enemy. From rescuing children with meningitis to delivering babies with difficult labor, every case is a life-or-death "battle." The most touching thing is the details: Fu Bikang's concentration when manually calculating the dosage of medicine, and Lin Wanning's steady hand on the needle that she learned on the battlefield - everything learned on the battlefield has found a new mission in peacetime. This chapter answers a fundamental question: When the grand narrative comes to an end, how will individual value continue? The answer lies in the baskets of eggs and the calls of "Doctor Lin", transforming life-saving skills into the ability to protect daily happiness. 3. The secret resonance between personal destiny and the wheel of the times Chapter 281 "The Wheel of History, Silent Attention" shows the most unique narrative wisdom of this work: how individuals dialogue with history. Through letters without return addresses, old newspapers, and an expensive radio, Fu Bikang and his wife maintained an inseparable connection with their distant comrades and national construction. The "seeds" of knowledge they left behind - battlefield medical manuals, machine tool improvement diagrams, hydraulic calculation data - are sprouting and growing in invisible places. This gesture of "silent attention" is precisely the most touching participation. They are not on the front line of construction, but they influence construction through the dissemination of knowledge; they are far away from the political center, but they are closer to the real pulse of this land than anyone else. This chapter tells us: History is not only created by heroes, but also written by countless unknown devotees with their professional knowledge, daily life, and perseverance. 4. Another responsibility of intellectuals: Let advanced wisdom take root in the soil. The creation of the character Fu Bikang broke the framework of the traditional anti-war narrative. The system knowledge he possesses is far ahead of the times, but he chooses not to subvert, but to transform, adapt, and sow. In Chapter 281, we see him transforming systematic medical knowledge into a training manual for rural doctors and simplifying engineering principles into sketches for improved farm tools. This kind of "knowledge dimensionality reduction" is not a compromise, but a real responsibility - allowing the most advanced wisdom to serve the most urgent needs. In today's era of explosion of knowledge but often disconnected from reality, Fu Bikang's choice is particularly worth pondering: true wisdom does not lie in how much cutting-edge knowledge is mastered, but in how much knowledge can be allowed to take root and sprout in the soil of reality. 5. Extreme restraint and great tension in emotional description. The emotional description in these three chapters is a masterclass. There is no sensationalism, no tragic exaggeration, all emotions flow naturally in the details and blank spaces: · Fu Biyue's words "go forward, don't look back" when he left · Lin Wanning woke up from a dream and said "I dreamed about the field hospital in the past" · The couple's silence when they listened to the radio for the first time under the electric light · The complex eyes of "pleased and disappointed" when they read that their knowledge was being applied The author trusts the reader's wisdom and leaves enough space for us to fill in the unsaid words and unshed tears. This restraint instead creates a stronger emotional impact, making each scene linger. 6. An exquisite balance between historical reality and literary imagination. The work is based on the setting of a systemic anti-war novel, but it does not have the alienation of science fiction at all. On the contrary, it uses this setting to explore very real themes: technological ethics, knowledge inheritance, the relationship between individuals and collectives, and the healing of war wounds. After the system was handed over, Fu Bikang faced a more real challenge than when he owned the system - how to continue to contribute based on his own memory and judgment without "plug-ins"? Isn't this problem a dilemma that every professional worker may face? Why start reading now? If you are looking for a work that can: 1. Make you calm down in an impetuous era - here are the smoke, morning mist and snowy nights deep in the Taihang Mountains 2. A story that rethinks the definition of "hero" and "ordinary" - there is no superman here, only people who turn extraordinary experiences into daily good deeds 3. A narrative that witnesses how knowledge can truly change the world - there is no magic here, only solid learning, transformation and practice 4. Feel the beauty of Chinese narrative text - concise, restrained, precise, every word falls where it should. 5. The reading experience of finding realistic enlightenment in the depth of history - the choice made seventy years ago still shines on us today. Then, Chapters 279-281 of "From Ordinary to Legend" is the next must-read on your bookshelf.
