The writing style is definitely up to the mark, with strict logic and rigorous research. The most important thing is that it presents the structural problems of the late Ming Dynasty, and also points out the problems of Chinese civilization for thousands of years, and very bravely tries to give its own answers instead of evading with blank spaces. The first book is currently being serialized, and the narrative is very mature, with both the coldness of machinations and the excitement of the battlefield. The author really has the intention to express his thoughts and pursuits, and is not just writing randomly.

Reader note

"The ancients came to the island to be specially hired, and it was difficult to rewrite China's will." This book is written in a very detailed way. When Fusu commits suicide, blood splatters on Mengtian's face and people disappear out of thin air - reading it is like watching a movie, every word has an image. The protagonist Ning Ye is even more rare, and he doesn't rely on the system to defeat him brainlessly. When the typhoon came, he took Fusu and Han Xin to install a black-tech wind-fixing needle. Fusu wanted to return to Daqin, so he was not in a hurry to send him off. He helped Han Xin untie his knot first and let him help Fusu join hands in the great cause of Daqin. Take every step with your head in mind, don't be too smart, and don't lick the dog. There are not many books that combine good writing skills and an above-average protagonist's IQ. It's not a waste to add a bookshelf.

Reader note

I recommend my own book, which is a semi-fantasy ancient group portrait novel (there are zombies, right? And it's also about human society). The background is the end of an imaginary dynasty. Although the outer cover is imaginary, the core is still full of Chinese flavor (refer to the late Ming Dynasty, you will know by studying the costumes). It contains a large number of extra chapters (regarded as a short historical article) that research documents. I actually don't recommend everyone to read the first volume. This volume is just a chance for each character to appear. Just read Chapter 2 (Revenge Story) and Chapter 5 (Disaster Doomsday Story). After all, it was my first time to write a book, and my writing skills were not good, and I am correcting them now. You can read the entire second volume, which contains a lot of traditional Chinese culture. You can feel the mood of the characters at that time just by immersing yourself in it. This book also contains large-scale descriptions (such as sex, politics, blood, violence) but very few. It also reflects the phenomenon of the late dynasty and the emotional journey of the yandere characters. The third volume is a zombie scourge, currently being conceived...
