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.

The protagonist has a bad outlook on life. He is still a mama's baby in his thirties, greedy for money, stealing, bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. What a waste! I'm divorced and I don't care about my daughter, but I'm hanging out with a teenage country maid all day long. Don't practice the serious Taoist exercises with your heart, just learn a bunch of evil methods. In the final analysis, the lack of the protagonist's three views means that the author's three views are wrong. The character will grow with age. That is nonsense. The protagonist is in his thirties. Do you think he is a child?
I didn't pay attention to the weirdness of the monthly ticket, and thought it was a really good book. At the beginning, I thought there was something wrong with the protagonist's character, and thought it could be changed later. But the more I looked at it, the more wrong it became. It's OK to have a weak character, and you can change it through hard work, and it's OK to have inconsistent views. After all, everyone's views are different, but morality cannot have no bottom line, then this person is really useless. . . I wasted a whole afternoon, I wish future readers can successfully avoid lightning!
Pretty! The Eight Classics of Zheng'er teaches Taoist priests how to raise little devils. You are truly worthy of being a Taoist priest. Your ancestral court worships the Fox Fairy next to Wang Lingguan, so why don't you raise a kid! High! Good! The Patriarch was so merciful that he didn't kill me.
A modern person, and an adult who has gone through family changes, is not too young at the age of thirty. I admit that hundreds of thousands is indeed not small money, but because of this, we should know what money should be taken and what money is not easy to take. It is hot to the touch. Every time the opponent launches a silver bullet offensive, let go. I won't say anything else. Over time, others will know that the protagonist is a shallow-sighted loser who has never seen money. Every time I get into trouble because of money, I don't remember it long enough. Also, since you have practiced magic, you must have reverence. It is bullshit every time, so it is not a shame to do it! With regard to this virtue and the method of refining thunder, Wang Lingguan had already beaten him to death with a whip.
I was really convinced. I originally thought that it would be weird for the protagonist to inherit a bunch of orthodox spells in the golden finger of his mobile phone and raise ghosts without practicing them. I held back and looked down, and when I encountered a corpse, I started to raise a corpse again, and slipped away.
I endured reading more than 70 chapters, and I really want to ask a question: How did those people who praised this book for its good writing continue to read it?
This book could be considered a good book when it appeared ten years ago, but it is no longer good. It doesn't matter whether the protagonist's views are crooked or not. People are always different. The protagonist is not necessarily a decent character. As long as there are no loopholes in the overall logic of the novel's character setting, what I feel is annoying now is that the protagonist obviously has so many powerful secret spells that can be practiced. However, he has to practice raising ghosts, refining corpses, incense, and becoming a god in another world. Moreover, as mentioned in the previous article through the Fox Fairy, most of the cultivation in other worlds relies on scattered skills. How can someone like the country goddess and landowner that the protagonist grabs have complete skills? If he doesn't practice the good ones, he only practices the bad ones. Is this logical? When traveling back and forth between different worlds in reality, the issue of time is not clearly explained. The novel describes that time should be running on both sides. Then the protagonist can practice a spell for 7749 days, and there are people he knows waiting on both sides. How to calculate the time flow rate? Is it normal for someone to disappear for half a year for no apparent reason?
Personal thoughts after reading
I saw it on the shelves and then gave up. I felt that there was no need to continue reading and it affected my mentality. It was inconsistent with my three views. The travel between the two worlds and various spells are well written, but there is a problem with the character of the protagonist. At first, he is said to be honest and loyal, but later in the article, he is described as selfish and violent, and there is a strong sense of hostility between the lines. Also, although the protagonist became a monk halfway, he was still an authentic Taoist sect. There was nothing much to say in the beginning about learning some unorthodox methods to protect himself. But when you see a kid raising a kid, and you see a corpse transforming, you refine the corpse. I can't understand the author's mental journey. If I like dark novels, I think I can continue to read them, and I'll leave the others as soon as I can. After reading the rest, I feel like I'm watching a battle between fighting spirit and horse.
Poisoned to death in Zhang 51, where did all fellow Taoists die 😒
I'm really convinced by this Xu Xiujun. He seems to think that his poor performance is because there is not enough publicity and exposure, so no one sees it. The fundamental reason is that the writing is bad. The most basic punctuation marks are not used correctly and it is impossible to read.
