A Few Glimpses of the Past
I often remember the pavilion by the stream at dusk, when I was so drunk I forgot the way home. When the fun was over, I rowed back late, and blundered deep into the lotus flowers. I rowed on, rowed on, startling a whole bank of gulls and herons into flight.

Pingzi's Reading List: Mostly Fantasy, Plus Anything Else That Catches My Eye
By fantasy, I don’t mean the fantasy category. I mean novels with fantasy themes. I only recommend ongoing novels. I don’t bother with completed or abandoned ones. Ratings, from low to high: [Filler] → [Below Average] → [Solid] → [Above Average] → [Excellent Minus] → [Excellent] → [Excellent Plus] → [Masterpiece] Broadly speaking, masterpieces are books I’d recommend for life, excellent books are great reads, solid books are worth reading, and filler books aren’t very good.

No Female Lead or One Female Lead, or Multiple Female Leads With Little Page Time
Writing: nailed it ✔️ Plot: nailed it ✔️ Most have little romance, or the romance is pretty decent No naive, helpless leads or saintly do-gooders Lately I've been hunting for new, promising books (not sure about female leads); some may get removed (Just realized I've been reading a lot of fanfiction lately X) …… …… My bookshelf is packed, but I'm too lazy to write recommendations... I'll leave them here for now and get to it when I have time (ノ_ _)ノ

A True Man Should Be Like This!
The blurbs for The Sage Who Transcended Samsara, Joy of Life, and The Interceptor are pinned. As for the rest, I read everything from ruthless action and comedy to mysteries and horror. I'll pass on romantic teasing and formulaic stories. Lively, well-rounded characters get top priority.

Smart Characters 🌟 Reading Drought 🌟 New, Mid-Stage, and Veteran Readers 🌟 Detailed Reviews and Picks 🌟 Keywords
I can appreciate almost any kind of story, as long as the characters have some sense. What I love most are stories that strike a nerve. Even when the writing isn't quite polished, a sincere, youthful passion can be deeply moving. But finding those stories often comes down to fate. At the very least, a pleasant read is already a good thing. Key criteria, wording may be adjusted slightly 1. Meticulous research and consistent logic 2. Subtle writing and vivid characters 3. Passionate, brisk pacing
Whatever Strikes My Fancy
No bleeding-heart protagonists, and either no female lead or just one. Above all, I want dark stories. Really, whether it's a dark story or one with a bleeding-heart protagonist, what matters most is smart characters, polished writing, and a smooth read. That's all you need. I mostly read dark stories because they're satisfying, but I don't like mindless plots or characters suddenly getting stupid.

Use players to attract readers, and then write a Western fantasy novel. After watching the first plot, I thought it was about solving a crime, but it turned out to be about fishing, and the protagonist is the fish. Before transforming into a human being, the demon king who was as good as a god did not even make a specific plan to become stronger. The writing is okay, but the description of the battle scenes is terrible. The first battle feels like a gif picture of a few seconds. Everyone shows each other's skills to understand. Then the devil is stolen by the protagonist, and the protagonist summons the Holy Spirit to seal it directly. There are a lot of words, but there are too few pictures. The devil, the bishop, the player, the passerby, and the protagonist's perspective switch back and forth. Both parties in the battle were silent, but the passers-by and players watching the show were very lively. As for the protagonist, he had no sense of existence, or the author forcibly gave him a sense of existence. The protagonist seems to be scheming, but actually knows nothing. Before the devil's remains in the holy coffin were unsealed, he had no idea what was inside. When he tricked the devil's remains into doing things for him, he acted like he had a plan, which made the protagonist very strategic. There is a saying that is right: the author's IQ is the ceiling of the novel's characters' IQ. When you feel overwhelmed, there is nothing wrong with letting go of your reserve and writing cool articles. After all, the title and setting of this book are the formula of Shuangwen.
The more I read this article, the more interesting it becomes. It doesn't have the awkward pretense of other behind-the-scenes articles, and it naturally hints at how awesome the protagonist's past was. This is not a simple article, you need to read it with your IQ. I want to know how the protagonist became so brilliant in his first life as a poor man? In his second life, the protagonist becomes the emperor of the ancient empire, a very powerful emperor-level hero who rules the entire Glorious Continent. In the later stage, he becomes hostile to the church, and the protagonist cannot defeat the church with the backing of gods.
Inquiry for group intention (group number 1①46⑧16⁹75)
Emmm, I don't seem to have the intention to start a group, but I saw someone asking about it in book circles and Zhangshuo. Let's do this. If you want to start a group, please like this post. I'll ask about it again when I'm fifty.
Until now, I feel a little bit depressed and uncomfortable. The protagonist obviously has no idea of finding a woman yet, but the author keeps transforming into a totem god, a demon king, and even "himself". This sense of dislocation that the protagonist is holding back while the author displays his sexual fetish wantonly is really strange...
. . .
The reason why it's not popular is very simple. It's verbose. I don't have the ability to write group portraits. I have to write here and there. It's messy. The subject matter is very novel, but it's a waste.
Picrew's little Bernie ٩(ˊˋ*)و
I read about ten chapters, but the writing was too wordy. I was very interested in the subject matter and the characters were good, but I couldn't stand the church. For some reason, I didn't have much expectation for the protagonist to enter the church. Then the writing of those live broadcasts was a bit messy. In fact, the plot should be quite funny, but the key points were not written. I feel very tired after watching it 😅😅 I will take it slow for now and come back in two days to see if I can continue watching it?
[Bian Que Tests Poison] When I confessed my identity as the Demon King, my friends were all shocked
Reprinted from a book review I posted elsewhere: "Player Research Guide" Author: Wash your hands frequently Popularity (as of the time of writing the review): 20,000 recommendations at some point Number of chapters (as of the time of writing the review): 171 chapters Progress status: To be continued Type keywords: behind-the-scenes flow, Western fantasy, multiple time travels, interaction with players Rating (out of 5): 4.5 Points (quite interesting). [Friendly reminder]: Most of the typos in the comments are similar-sounding words, which are deliberately done to avoid sensitivity and are not written by Wen Mang, the original poster. [Story background and others]: The background is an ancient Western fantasy background (the darkest era in the West with knights, witches, and alien sedan trials), so many characters in the main world have foreign names, and Lao Bian Que is not very fond of English, so I can't remember their full names, sorry for that. The protagonist of this book, Bernie, is a time traveler and has experienced 4 lives at the same time. Why 4 times? It's just because the first 3 times failed (; 1_1). The first life is his initial life as a Chinese, and the second time is his first rebirth as a time traveler (the chapters I have read so far do not go into much detail about his first rebirth, only that he is a Huangdi, and it seems to be related to the bright side (light does not completely represent good people, in this book it also represents Feng Jian (old-fashioned and old-fashioned) was at odds with each other, which should be recalled in the plot in the future, or discovered by "Player Turtle"), and the third life was more shady. After being unsatisfied with his first rebirth, he fell into hell when he was reborn again and became a member of the Seven Demon Kings of Hell (I want to complain here, the Seven Demon Kings of Hell are also called the Seven Sects) Sin represents the seven types of "arrogance, anger, gluttony, laziness, lust, greed, and jealousy", but there is no "pain" it represents. I don't know if this is because the author doesn't understand the mythology or is a deliberate innovation, or maybe he borrowed the world view of other games and anime (=_=)), and then realized that Being left in darkness and without a future, he plans to be reborn as a human again and find ways to integrate into the light side. It is best to climb higher and higher, side by side with Lennon (perhaps the author is also afraid of being sensitive, so he changed the name of the boss of the light side. It has an ancient tribal flavor and feels a bit like The Legend of Zelda). Of course, a big devil who wants to become the "Holy Bald" who loves the angels is definitely not because he is good-hearted (if you are the true Holy Mother, believe me, I will give up the book, I hate the White Lotus Moonlight Side the most) As a person, the villainous protagonist will be more appealing to me (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧). He does everything for himself and is very selfish (but a bit boring, the author can make him more flexible). I like him. (∂ω∂) In order to prevent himself from being seen through the evil nature by the light side, he killed an angel and solidified its light characteristics on himself, making himself extremely close to the light. Later, he penetrated into the light side and became the backbone of the sedan chair as a servant of God. [Highlights of this book ~ Real sand sculpture players infiltrate]: One of the more interesting highlights of this book is that the Western fantasy world where the protagonist lives has recently (not connected in the first two lives) seems to be connected to the earth in his first life, and is sought after by people on earth as a "virtual reality adventure game". In the eyes of earth players, his world, the people around him, including himself are just NPCs, but other n The PC is unconscious, but he knows that he is in other people's game world, and others don't know that he is uncontrollable. This is more interesting (´-ω-`). Think about it, the players think that you are an NPC, unscrupulously telling all kinds of secrets around you, planning all kinds of evil cats, and as a native of the world, and an aboriginal of a high level, you can not only decode their evil cats, but also design them to harm them! And because the players are all reincarnated into animals (it is said that they cannot be transformed into humans until level 10), it can be said that they have no ability to protect themselves at the beginning. Even if the protagonist does not take action, the players can still make various tricks: There are male players who are reincarnated into pigs (♀), who are forced to wear clocks by farmers and then commit suicide in shame and anger (ಡωಡ); some are in order to save pigs (the one at the front) ), three dogs formed a team to push the boss (the farmer) and were beaten; There was also a big fat duck that ate itself into a fat man and waited for people to slaughter it (one of the ways for the fairy to die). The roast duck was also served to the main character's table (Bernie (´-ω-`): Looking at the virtual player nameplate suspended on the plate of duck meat, I felt calm and started eating happily). In short, there are various S methods, including the main supporting actresses. [Emotional entanglement - Lover options (it's just a guess before confirming)]: What is written here is the game ID of several female players, one is called "Yes Sui Sui" and the other is called "This fairy is cute". "Sui Sui" has a quiet and stable personality, and has turned into a dog and a tortoise. Finally, as the protagonist's pet tortoise, she stayed with him, feeling that she has the potential to be a heroine; As for the "fairy", this living treasure is more of a S. Because of her relatively erratic personality, she has been reincarnated into many kinds of animals. Basically, each kind of animal is not good. She thinks about rescuing Suisui all day long, but in the end she is on the way to save Suisui ("▔㉨▔). I think these two will work as female protagonists, but considering that they are too young (probably less than 15) and a relationship in a different place, it feels unlikely. (This is just like the CP in the game. No matter how close you are in the game, you will call each other husband and wife. When you go offline, you will become someone else's wife and husband. You don't know that your head is green on the other side of the world (´-ω-`), so the game CP should not talk about love. And if this kind of long-distance relationship extends to another world, it is also true. You can't control her cheating after she leaves the game, so unless... They are physically Take her to another world, otherwise she won't be the heroine). Follow-up self-view~ [Bian Que's summary of perceptions]: The writing is good, and I can definitely watch it, but the plot of the Western fantasy world, or the plot of the protagonist's dealings with Westerners, is rather boring. I don't like it very much, but fortunately there are sand sculpture players to adjust it, otherwise it is really boring. So far, I can still watch it.
🤣What a pity. I thought I found a rare masterpiece, but the synopsis was missing. I was looking forward to the big scenes later. When I saw Hogwarts in the newly opened book, I had no choice but to say goodbye. It's such a pity for this book.
