Wonderful and beautiful! The novels written by Kai Zhongkan began with the first "The Road to Feng Shui Cultivation", then the second "One Man and One Mouse Want to Cultivate Immortality", and after finishing it, he wrote "The Journey of Mecha to Immortality, Invincible from Exile on Mars". The three books are now completed. The three books are combined into a Cultivation of Immortality series, which can be called the Cultivation of Immortality Trilogy. Now, he has started writing again. This time he is not writing about cultivating immortals. He is writing about things close to us, about Feng Shui, human hearts, kung fu, layout, breaking the situation, the Eight Gates of Jianghu, and the story of how he overcame obstacles along the way, established a business empire, and took advantage of the situation to build regional military power... This new book is called "Traveling Horses and Hidden Bureaus". The yin and yang of walking horses are Feng Shui, and hiding the world is human hearts. The purpose of the book: In this world, the human heart is more terrifying than ghosts. But you can't be afraid. If you are afraid, you will lose. Well worth watching!

IQ Online recommends high-quality alternative history books. Also known as "Da Ming: I Really Just Want to Lie Down", "Hongwu: Your Majesty, This Is My Disease", "Da Ming's Attending Physician", "Da Ming Zhenhai King" Zhang Wuxian, a 36-year-old entrepreneurial failure, traveled eleven years to Hongwu and became a 20-year-old spirited boy. He originally wanted to lie down and be a salted fish, but his severe obsessive-compulsive disorder made him unable to see anything "unreasonable" - wrong food prices must be corrected, medical care is backward, the army must be corrected, and Ming Dynasty must not conquer the world. What's even more outrageous is that he has a system in his mind that automatically stuffs him with solutions and supplies every time he suffers an episode of obsessive-compulsive disorder, without paying for it. So - he saved the dying Crown Princess Chang after childbirth, and Chang Yuchun's daughter survived; he vaccinated the emperor's eldest grandson Zhu Xiongying with cowpox, and the child who should have died at the age of 8 was alive and kicking; he gave infusions to rescue Queen Ma when she was critically ill, and Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite woman lived twenty more years; he diagnosed Zhu Biao's terminal illness in advance, so that the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty would no longer die young. Once these four people were alive, the history of the Ming Dynasty was completely rewritten - Emperor Jianwen was gone, the Battle of Jingnan was gone, and the Lan Yu Case was gone. Empress Ma recognized him as her adopted son and said "this is my son" when meeting people; Zhu Biao and Zhu Di called him brothers, one called him "virtuous brother" and the other called him "brother-in-law"; Xu Da took the initiative to marry his daughter to him, and he became the son-in-law of Wei Guogong; Lan Yu regarded him as his savior and blocked the knife for him in the court. Zhu Yuanzhang patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are the most diligent person we have ever seen in this life."

New book online. Historical food themes. Although it is a time-travel novel, it does not have imaginative settings such as systems and golden fingers, and pays more attention to historical facts and historical events. In the article, no matter the title, person's name, place name, or social background, all are well-documented, which can help everyone understand more about some historical knowledge of the Spring and Autumn Period. In addition, this book has a very detailed introduction to some traditional Chinese delicacies and can be used as a gourmet cookbook for practical operation. However, the author will not be held responsible if the kitchen novice overturns. Book lovers who are interested in history and food can come in and have a look.
