Run 1
For my own use, to avoid landmines. No yuri with female leads. Some straight romance is included because I've run out of author-block slots, so I threw all those books in here. I blocked XWJ, so I didn't add them.

The radio drama came out and I listened to it happily, but there were a lot of arguments in the radio drama comment section and in the recent comment section. The most typical problem is that Lou Jing seems to have fallen in love with Yin Jiu, not Yu Jingqiu. Some even think that if Yin Jiu was another person, Lou Jing would also fall in love with her. First of all, I think this is a completely false proposition. The Yin Jiu whom Lou Jing fell in love with at that moment was Yu Jingqiu. In other words, Yin Jiu existed because of Yu Jingqiu. Because it was Yu Jingqiu, Yin Jiu could give Lou Jing enough sense of security. She "inexplicably" put down her guard against this stranger, but this was not inexplicable. It was her amazing intuition for Yu Jingqiu and the love hidden inside. If it weren't for Yu Jingqiu, even if that Yin Jiu was powerful, Lou Jing would only feel uncomfortable, and he might have been picked by her sword long ago. Without Yu Jingqiu, there would be no Lou Jing who was attracted to Yin Jiu. Secondly, some people think that why Lou Jing did not like senior sister before, but instead fell in love with Yin Jiu after masking his face, and then poured all kinds of dirty water on Lou Jing. I think this is even more ridiculous. The author has made it very clear. During the Yin Jiu period, the two people had no identity in the past. The two communicated face to face, put aside all identity shackles, and exchanged sincerity for sincerity, so the hidden love exploded. The relationship between primary and secondary cannot be mistaken. Yin Jiu is a part of Yu Jingqiu. You cannot talk about these two people separately. With one mask, why should you completely deny Yu Jingqiu? Finally, I want to say that this is an excellent work. I like it no matter which character it is. I hope everyone can be more sensible and read happily. [Hold fist][Hold fist][Hold fist]
A few years later, I suddenly thought of the Song of Everlasting Regret before I went to bed. I thought of this story full of unbreakable regrets. I thought of the little fairy who had done so much. He knew that he could not survive much longer and had been planning for the future. He died unexpectedly but suddenly. He never met his sister until he died. He didn't even know whether his sister was dead or alive. The tiger finally escaped from the sea of suffering, and she longed to see her sister, but she didn't know that it was her sister's death that made her escape from that place by mistake... There are many, many regrets for other characters. This he is even more uncomfortable than be. You are so cruel, Sun Fungus.
Rereading this article again, I can say that this is the best martial arts lily novel I have read in more than ten years. Abuse is indeed abuse, but the writing is so good. The world here is a real world, with chivalrous tenderness, insidiousness and cunning, sacrificing life for justice, and ungratefulness. Some of the characters created here have two sides, and people are born with contradictions. Not much to say, it's a great article, not inferior to some of everyone's works. I hope to see this work made into a film and television series in my lifetime.
"Song of Everlasting Sorrow" can be said to be my favorite among all Junjun's books! [Orange Heart][Orange Heart][Orange Heart] I watched it five years ago, then I watched it again every two or three years, and I have watched it three times this year. Six years later, things have changed, people have changed, and my mentality has changed. I have also gained new feelings and kept them as my own records. The name "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" is truly worthy of its name, and it's an excellent choice! In a word, in this world of grudges and grudges, you avenge me and I avenge you. Things in the world are cause and effect for each other, going round and round, endlessly, and in the end there is only hatred left. I really like the explanation given by Junjun: "The hate in the Song of Everlasting Regret means regret. The regrets in life come over and over again, never stopping, just like the river flowing to the east, never ending." At that time, I felt that Jun Jun's writing style was really wonderful! ! ! It is precisely because the writing is so touching that the heart-torture and knife-eating scenes in the plot are particularly heart-breaking [crying] [crying] [crying] The characters in the novel just become vivid and flesh-and-blood, and then suddenly leave the scene, leaving regret and sadness lingering in my heart. And the plot creation of Junjun is simply my favorite part! ! ! The plot and rhythm of each book gripped my heart so much that I couldn't stop reading it. It made me sleepless and forgetful. I would read it in one go in a few days, and then it would start a period of time that I couldn't let go of [Hold my thighs][Hold my thighs][Hold my thighs] For example, the endings of various characters in the book are always unexpected and very telling. The "villain" was defeated and died suddenly, and the "decent" could not escape his fate (Juniu's big knife [biting the handkerchief]). But every death is in line with the logic of the story, and the plots are interlocking and exquisite! ! It is definitely not a deliberate arrangement for the characters to die in order to advance the plot. Unlike other stories that have a heavy sense of routine, most of the characters can survive safely in the end, and at most a few insignificant villains are sacrificed, giving only a superficial sense of satisfaction. Or in a routine way, sacrificing a decent Bai Yueguang and deliberately causing tears (() [Lie down] The death of Cao Ruxu revealed the conspiracy drama of the entire Song of Everlasting Sorrow. The death of Father Jing left the remaining five disciples completely without support, like rootless duckweeds, drifting in the life path they chose; it also made the Qianyuan Sect's corruption finally fully exposed, and all the demons and ghosts with evil intentions that had been suppressed in the past also surfaced and were involved in this dispute in the rivers and lakes. The death of the little fairy allowed the senior sister to escape from the poisonous hands of Yao Fuzi and escape from the death village. The interlocking logic is self-consistent, very exquisite! The death of Shen Zhongyin was clean and sharp, revealing the real culprit of everything. He used a fire and the sentence "No one can judge me!" To free himself, but left the hatred to Jing'er. Yaoyao's "death" forced Lou Jing to face the truth of the matter, and also put Jing'er in a situation where, except for her senior sister, the whole world would be her enemy, and everyone would be betrayed and separated from her relatives. Nie Chan's death, the whole incident serves as an important clue and plot advancement of the full text. It is the end and explanation of the grievances of the previous generation, but it also becomes the beginning of the grievances of the next generation. Whether they are "decent" or "villain", everyone can be considered to have lived a wonderful life and died a great death, which makes people unable to calm down for a long time after watching it. (In Fuguang, the deaths of Yu Yao Nu and Yun Yu also set a reference template for the relationship between Senior Sister and Jing'er. Although I feel that the relationship scenes between these two pairs have some flaws, and the first pair is too painful to read; while Yun Yu and Yue Ya'er are a bit plot-killing, which is a bit regretful. But it also reflects the bond between Senior Sister and Jing'er from different aspects.) My second favorite is the description of the fungus scenes! As soon as I put pen to paper, a frame of image is automatically generated and played in my mind, like a short video clip! Here is a list of the ones that impressed me the most: The senior sister was carrying Lang Ye's body, and the cuckoos were crying blood all over the mountain. Zhan Sanxiao died and fell on the snow viewing platform, and the wind and snow came one after another. Yu Jingqiu and Jing'er were trapped in a tight siege, and they were filled with despair. They couldn't help but ask themselves whether they made mistakes in every step, which led to the current disaster for the whole family. The senior sister gently wiped away her tears and asked softly: Are you going to admit defeat? In the end, the two of them fought against the crowd and broke out of the siege! (I really like this part so much that I couldn't help but write it for a long time [picking my head][picking my head][picking my head]The change in Jing'er's mentality, the reveal of the identity of the senior sister, the burst of feelings between the two, and the beginning of revenge, all collided together!! My scalp was numb when I watched it, and it was so hearty! If it can be perfectly restored in film and television, it must be even more shocking!!🥰🥰) Jing'er finally defended her senior sister, but she thought her old friend was dead. She fell in the flower field laughing miserably, and finally turned into shouting: "I won't fight anymore!" And about the poplar tree in the courtyard that withered and flourished. At first, Yue Ya'er used it to comfort Tiger, and finally she and Jing'er talked about letting go. When I first read it, this fragment made me feel something; when I read it again, I gained spiritual comfort from it, and it was also a moment when I felt like the characters in the book. This article was written six years ago, so there are inevitably flaws. The book's gender issues such as gender controversy/character setting/power relations made me a little sad and melancholy. There are also many related controversies on the Internet. The ending is a little rushed, and there are some bugs in Qiu Zhaoyi's final battle, which can be regarded as a fly in the ointment. But even so, I still think that "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" can definitely bear the words "Flaws should not be concealed" [Holding fists] Finally, at this point in writing, I remembered that I had seen the "Analysis of Classical Chinese Tragedy Literature" before. The core of the story of "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" fits exactly this theoretical tone. When people are alive, they are dominated and coerced by hatred; when people die, hatred is left to the living to continue to bear it, and they move forward carrying this hatred. The ups and downs of life and death are intertwined with grudges and grudges in the world. Only death is the most profound annotation, and it writes this long-lasting hatred in the world.
The two most impressive points in the whole text 1. Jing'er was thrown into a snake cave and struggled to survive. 2. The senior sister transforms into Yin Jiu and has a mutual affection with Jing'er. The emotional description here is very good. Unfortunately, the senior sister gets along with Jing'er as a man. For Wan, love is gender-specific. I only like women. Then be, the plot is average, many people died, but I am not that sad. I have only one regret because there is too little ink, the language is too concise and clear, and the details of the various deputy CPs' interactions are not described. Many characters cannot be embodied. I only know that she loves her, she does not love her, she cannot love her, this stereotype. I have to make up the details by my own imagination. It is really difficult to empathize. The only thing I am not sorry about is that the relationship between the main CPs is well written and step by step. In fact, I prefer the kind of happy ending where everyone can survive after all the hardships. Reality is difficult, but in the novel, ingenuity can always be achieved, and only one pair of male and female vice-CPs are finally successful, which makes me very unhappy. Although it is normal, after all, I am reading a Lily novel. In fact, I can't fully understand the love between these brothers and sisters. Maybe it's just that I have a simple brain and indifferent emotions. Without good detailed description, it is difficult to impress me.
When the scene ended, all the actors relaxed. The villain actor said who was so cruel just now, and the decent actor yawned and said it was finally over. I almost fell asleep while lying down...
Maybe I'm past the age where I can shed tears for love. Missing Ah Xue and Shao Yan's lover only made me sad. But missing Senior Sister Yu and her sister made me burst into tears. She shed tears again because Tiger once again walked into Xinghuatian and recognized everyone from Baihuamen as the second young lady. Baihuamen, a branch of Feihua Alliance, can be regarded as a crooked sect, but everyone in the sect remembers the kindness of the Meng family. The so-called righteous way is like Qianyuanzong Caoliu Villa, but it is full of filth. It's ironic. The tiger is obviously having a sweet dream, why can't I stop crying!
The writing is delicate and soft. The plot twists and turns. Linked together. It's a very good novel, and the love in it is not all about getting together for CP. The saddest thing is Xiao Shen Xian and 𬰼 Yan. Forbearance and restraint, alas
Why did I suddenly edit the article? I accidentally clicked in and read the extra episode again [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying]
Alas, I didn't cry while watching the first episode, but I shed tears when I watched the extra. It's so painful. I could have such a wonderful life.
