    The feeling of finding a favorite book during a reading slump is so wonderful! I wanted to share it with fellow enthusiasts 😭 A tranquil bamboo grove, a medicine hut and a small inn nestled together, a peaceful haven where bandits lurk deep in the mountains. It doesn't offer mindless, fast-paced action; instead, it prefers a slow, deliberate build-up, using subtle hints and restraint. The young protagonist spends his days on peach branches, honing his skills and gradually maturing, transforming from impetuous youth into someone who understands the meaning of protection. Quietly building tension, then a storm brews; emotions are subtle yet profound, never explicitly stated, leaving a lingering impact. This is my own work, "The Legend of the Wild Goose," not very popular, quietly laying the groundwork for a long story. Those who enjoy slow-paced ancient Chinese martial arts and coming-of-age stories should check it out [crying emoji]. The female lead is still on her way.

    Every single one is wonderful. I especially love the first one, a quick transmigration novel where every story has a tragic ending. I particularly love the first story. I read the second one during class and cried buckets. I finished the third one at 3 AM, crying so much I was breathless and couldn't sleep. The ending of the fourth one was completely unexpected; knowing the ending brought tears to my eyes. [Crying][crying][crying][crying]

    It's incredibly heart-wrenching. The first three high-scoring ones are also very heart-wrenching, and although the last one has a low score, I personally think it's quite heart-wrenching too, and it's actually quite good.
