After the Rise of Strange Tales

Is the world setting of this story a bit idealistic? It seems that the concentration of popular thought will become a reality. But it makes no sense that only strange stories and strange stories have become reality, but there are no shadows of heroes and gods. If it is just the manifestation of the idealistic power of the group, then it is completely possible to create artificial gods. Or maybe something has been filtered? After all, the law itself shouldn't be that intelligent to judge what is weird and what is heroic. I feel there is a lot of room for maneuver here. For example, create a weird but communicable monster? Create a monster that's weird but has weaknesses that can be controlled? Create a very powerful weird being (for example, it eats ten people every day, but it is very powerful) and then set it to have strong domain awareness, will it conflict with other weird things?

Things to note before reading: This book review was written when the book was updated to Chapter 325. It was written to provide a reference for new book friends. The content will contain as little spoilers as possible. Due to personal time reasons, it is relatively brief. Will continue to update when there is time in the future. Introduction As the name suggests, let me briefly introduce this book. This book is an imaginary world view with some grammatical flavor.        ：        ，40%，35%，25% Sugary and extremely delicious (I'm sure) The plot is roughly that the protagonist and his companions slowly change the world together. "The world is sick, and I want to correct the world." Male protagonist: Zhou Ming Female protagonist: Wang Siyan Important male supporting role: Zhang Wei Important female supporting role: Ping Xingyue Why is this book worth reading? 1. The world view is invincible If you are a traditional artist, your world view must be super great. The worldview of this book can be summed up in one sentence: "What people think in their hearts will affect reality." This means that if more people believe in a ghost story, it will become a reality. At the same time, if a hero saves many ordinary people, he will gradually become distorted into the image that people think of because of people's worship of him and one-sided understanding of him. Under this worldview, many special settings were born. The following will expand on some terms & settings. 1) Objects & phenomena formed by cognitive distortions are called weird, and the people involved in dealing with weird are called hermits. A small number of hermits can use spells and are called spellcasters. 2) As mentioned above, heroes who have saved too many people will be distorted by emotions such as worship. For this reason, the hermit must remain anonymous and wear a mask at all times, and change the mask every year to prevent himself from being distorted by other people's perceptions. 3) As the level of magic power increases (which can be simply understood as an increase in strength), magicians will gradually tend to be weird. Although there are people who execute out-of-control magicians, the number is obviously not enough. For this reason, hermits need to regularly self-mutilate to ensure that they can kill themselves ruthlessly at any time to prevent themselves from becoming weird 4) After the prevalence of weird stories, different social forms were born, and researchers have also dug out various hypotheses from history. Here is an example of one of them. Tide of Spell Power: Taking the many records of demons and ghosts in the Tang Dynasty as an entry point, it is proposed that the prevalence of ghost stories is an intermittent historical necessity. There have been several periods in history when ghost stories were popular, just like the tide, rising and falling. If this hypothesis is true, then the prevalence of weird stories has not destroyed mankind for thousands of years, and eliminating weirdness will no longer be an immediate priority. 2. The characterization has cause and effect, and the characterization is a gray line Compared with the author's past works, the characterization in this book has been improved (personal opinion), especially in the embedding of cause and effect and foreshadowing, it is even more brilliant. Take the author's first book "Saving the World a Thousand Times to Death" as an example. Whether it is Liu Xiyue or Ada, their unconditional trust and support for the protagonist comes from their past experiences in the setting. One is more than ten years of ordinary day and night together, and the other is several years of thrilling and hard work. However, this part has never been discussed in detail, and has little to do with saving the world. The reason why the protagonist is determined to save the world is because he is the savior chosen by the world, and he is the only one who can save the world. This is not the case with this book. Zhang Wei and Wang Siyan's trust in the protagonist comes from the tacit understanding they have grown up with and the common ideal they have always shared. This is the premise of their tacit understanding, and it is directly related to what they are doing at this time and is in the same vein. The reason why the protagonist wants to save the world is because... This part is not yet clear. It may be that he is used to seeing the beauty of the parallel world and is determined to return everything to the past; or it may be just the layout of the original owner before traveling through time. He is not a prisoner who has been clearly arranged. He is trapped in repeated reincarnations for thousands of years, looking for the only possibility. His salvation is more complicated, his motives are more difficult to trace, and at the same time he is more three-dimensional. In terms of the background settings of the characters, this book also buries more pitfalls. The phantom of ordinary stars and moon that can only be seen by the protagonist, the Full Vision (a relic, a special item with magical power) that seems unimportant but hides a secret, Wang Siyan's recovery ability that is different from ordinary people, the red door, the descendants of the experimental subjects of the Fusion of God Project... Just talking about the male and female protagonists, you can find that there are already a lot of hidden foreshadowings, which will undoubtedly make the characters more three-dimensional, and also provide many reasonable and unobtrusive entry points for the subsequent plot development. 3. Sugar Xiao Wang is too cute! The corners of Lucky Number's mouth were raised throughout the whole part. So when will the two get married? It almost happened several times, but it was delayed until chapter 335... The latest chapter is sweet again, so when will you get married? 4. Knife I actually don't like the term knife, it is too light. Many heavy and complex realities cannot be summarized by a simple word "knife", and good works do not need to be proved by "knife". The term "knife" is used here only for intuitive display. The rhythm of this book is quite stable and natural, and it can be regarded as a unit drama with perfect connection. In every unit drama, many supporting characters have appeared or come to an end. Countless struggles with weirdness have all proved one thing: no matter how powerful the hermit is, he may die at any time. The hurried behavior of the characters is a supplement to the world view. Cruelty is not just a word, but sacrifice is the same. There are traces behind them and they are essential. The intuitive feeling is that the story is probably more refined. 5. Cool What is the indispensable thing for web articles? Be cool!       ，，，&                                                                                                          When Sanyang Village can kill its rulers and liberate the common people; when the Corpse Mountain Train dies unexpectedly, exceeding everyone's expectations, and bathing in the blood of its companions to judge the rage; These "only I can do it" and the victory or defeat is not determined purely based on strength, which is undoubtedly a very useful and refreshing point. If any book lover is tired of the traditional pretense and slaps in the face, you may wish to read this book. Of course, this does not mean that the whole book is high-end but not down-to-earth. This book also has many conventional cool points, and the author knows them very well and arranges them well. For example, the setting of the liaison officer plays a role in comparison and adjustment similar to the barrage in live broadcasts. In Ripper & Corpse Mountain Train, it has a very good admiration effect. There are of course a lot of traditional pretense and slaps in the face. The one I saw recently, the pretense and slap in the face in a secret base under the sea, can be called a textbook in the industry, and some people were very happy. This book is not finished yet, so I will finish this post slowly and leave the rating for later. This book review has not talked about shortcomings, because there are really no obvious flaws in this book. If you really want to say it... You can actually find it from the above article. Everyone likes different themes. For readers who like relaxed and happy farming novels, novels with an abstract world view and complex settings are obviously not that good. But no matter, this book is worth reading. If you are interested, you might as well try to read it. This is a well-written book, and it's worth it!

It's only Chapter 7. Even the donkeys in the production team dare not rest like this.

I really don't understand why this book is so good but it doesn't get good grades. Author, look at me, which editorial team are you in? I'll try to get around it as much as possible.

The title of the book is too confusing. I want to change it, but I can't think of a good one.

I haven't read too many chapters. Some of the protagonist's behaviors make me feel strange and bring the world back to normal. In the chapters I have seen so far, the protagonist is unhappy when someone else does something wrong and thinks it is someone else's fault. However, in the context of the story of this article, people are divided into classes, and what the protagonist wants to do, I personally think is to break the class. There is a book called "Starting from the Red Moon", which has similar ideas. But the protagonist of that book did not make me feel uncomfortable. The protagonist of Hongyue has his own rules and regulations. He will not interfere with others, but when it comes to his own affairs, he will act in accordance with his own world view and three views, and will not interfere in other people's affairs. It may be that I did not understand the author's ideas and forced my own three views on others. This is an extremely overbearing approach. Everyone has his own way of living. , Times are different, and everyone's lifestyle is different. Maybe it's because I am very tired and resentful of others imposing their ideas on me, which is why I feel this way. This is just my personal opinion.

It's a pity that I didn't discover A Thousand Times earlier. I finished reading this very exciting novel in five days. The creativity is very good. After reading it, I kidnapped the timeline. I came specifically to find this type of book. I found that this one is much more exciting than that one. After reading it, I don't want to pursue that one anymore Come and give a small reward for the new book. Send two monthly tickets to show your appreciation. I will read the author's second book. I hope the author can bring such excellent works again!

It would be nice to just write a weird little copy It would be better if the protagonist is an orphan. Nowadays, everyone lives alone, and friends and relatives are quite inexplicable. Reading novels is just to get away from reality, not to find the truth, goodness and beauty in novels. Besides, are friends and relatives really only the truth, goodness and beauty? Stop it, author, take control
