Web Novel Picks: Not for Beginners, Off the Beaten Path
Not beginner-level fiction. Personal taste, entirely subjective. I'll score each work based on my preferences, out of 10. The books on the rankings are pretty good, but most put commercial success first. They're like junk food: great the first time, but too much gets cloying, and they don't have much to offer beyond passing the time. These days I mostly browse at random, and I'm not as free as I used to be, so finding a book that suits my taste is pretty rare. I've read every book I review. I

This book is a rare documentary-like historical work with a grand narrative ability. Although it writes about some individuals in a somewhat superficial way, it is still a good book despite its shortcomings. It's a pity that Qidian didn't push it so that more readers could see it. All monthly votes have been given to this book, and I hope the author will hurry up.
Thanks to the author for paying tribute to the great man! My grandfather was the secretary of the township committee during the Mao Zedong era. During his tenure, he was upright and honest. During the flood season, he would wear coir raincoats and straw sandals to inspect villages and would not go home for more than ten days. At that time, he went to the commune canteen to eat at his own expense. The leader of a place went to the canteen to eat at his own expense. This is unimaginable today! My grandfather is most afraid of inspections by superior leaders, because although superior leaders pay for themselves, everyone must eat better than usual and spend more money. It feels distressing! Even though I work in one place, I still get a dead salary and have several children to support. The most important thing is that most cadres at that time were like this! At that time, serving the people was definitely not an empty talk! I didn't want to talk about it at first, but now I feel that I need to talk about it more, otherwise the younger generations will only stay in books about teachers and mentors, and have no idea of their greatness and integrity. I have never seen a great man, but I understand the principle of a crooked beam that is not straight at the top!
I'm really feeling a little emotional today, and I'm not happy if I don't vomit!
Today I feel a little emotional, even a little touched, and I don't want to express my displeasure. If you have nothing to do, please scroll through the post. A book recommendation post pops up on the home page. Take a closer look at my book that you are not recommending? Hurry and take a look! After watching it, I was a little emotional, but more moved. For the first time, I saw that a book friend who really liked my book was silently helping me promote it. How could I not be moved? ! The date is two weeks ago, it was posted on July 10th. I only saw it today. Looking back, it's no wonder that the collection in those two days has increased more than usual, and more and more book friends like to post book reviews and paragraph reviews recently. What particularly moved the author was the reply from a book friend who complained about the short word count, saying that he was afraid the book would die if he didn't even read it. The author is so moved that he has nothing else to say. He can only give a briefing in advance to all the book friends who have been silently supporting Bamboo. In fact, this background was not intended to be discussed until the book is finished. I would like to say this first to reassure the book friends who silently supported Bamboo when the author was at his loneliest. For the topic of traveling through time and overturning the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, the author has a complete writing plan. I will not talk about the specific number of words to be written today. Today I will only say that this plan will not be affected by data and income. In the end, I will definitely give you a complete explanation of the overturning of the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty. Because the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty has always been a concern of the author, the online articles writing this paragraph are too casual and sloppy for the author to understand, so I have to write it clearly. At the very least, I want my brothers and sisters who have read my book not to be depressed when they read about the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, but to sneer: This is nothing. In another time and space, the XXX people (of course the characters in the author's book) have already beaten him. And after the entire writing plan for this section of the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty is completed, the author probably has no intention of writing a time travel article with a real historical background unless he writes about revolutionary historical themes. Because the author hates using a routine repeatedly, which only shows that you have narrow knowledge and no other abilities. So book friends who like the author, please rest assured that eunuchs, outline escape and the like have no connection with the author. Finally, I would like to thank all my book friends, my brothers and sisters who silently supported me when the author was lonely...
The late Ming Dynasty is really well written. What's especially rare is that the development is steady and steady, with no random cheating. The emotional scenes are also very interesting and the plot is well-organized. The disadvantage is that updates are a bit slow. The author needs to write quickly, I'm optimistic about you.
It's so well written, Nanming's opening fairy grass 🌿 level
I prefer historical novels, especially anti-Qing novels about the beginning of the Nanming Dynasty. After reading anti-Qing novels for many years, I think this book is not in the top five fictional novels about the anti-Qing Dynasty beginning in the Nanming Dynasty. Except for the part about the false prince, which I personally feel is too dramatic, the dialect is quite friendly after reading it for a long time. I have been regretting the slow-burning and delicate "Mo Shang Xing" Eunuch for many years, and this article perfectly makes up for the regret.
The writing is really beautiful
I think it is much better than the top ten books on the monthly ticket list and bestseller list. It's a pity that Qidian doesn't provide resources, which ruins such a good book by the author. Recommend a book by the way
Good book recommended
The writing is good ~ the protagonist has no golden fingers and no system, arming himself with the thoughts of a teacher ~ the setting is very interesting, I have never seen such a late Ming Dynasty novel that follows the people's line
Xiancao, it's a pity that the starting point does not provide traffic
I have read almost fifty chapters of this book, and it is truly an amazing work! Whether it is the characterization of the protagonist and the protagonist group, or the insightful observation of historical trends, it is unique among historical novels, and it dwarfs many novice novels. Especially the localization of the protagonist is even more outstanding. There are no cheats, no tricks to read history books, and keep the time points in mind; no small inventions and creations are made at every turn; the preparation is also in accordance with the mainstream arrangements of the society at that time. The difficulty of arranging the plot in this way will definitely increase exponentially, which also shows the author's skill. But there is one thing that makes it difficult for me to read it. I don't know if I am the only one who feels this way (Chinese 140 in the College Entrance Examination, maybe it's not a problem with my reading comprehension). That is, when the author is writing, there are always sentences that seem to be forcibly expanded. To give a few examples: "The local civil and military figures appointed by the imperial governors and governors were left here alone." "Those powerful men were just afraid of losing the city and the wealth they had finally regained from Zhang Xianzhong." "Nan Li stopped and took a look at the whipped head. The old man who was kneeling on the ground and crying turned his head calmly. Regardless of Zhang Yingxing's continued scolding and persuasion, he walked past as if he didn't pay attention. As he strode forward, his eyes looked into the distance but already contained murderous intent." Like these three sentences, I think most people may read them over and over again quickly, but they may not be able to understand them. I think the problem is that they are all long and difficult sentences. For example, if you change it to: "The local civil and military figures appointed by the imperial governors and senior officials are left here alone." "Those powerful people are just afraid of being taken away from the city. The wealth that was finally regained from Zhang Xianzhong" " Nan Li stopped and looked at the old man who was kneeling on the ground crying with his head in his hands, and turned his head calmly, regardless of Zhang Yingxing's continued scolding and persuasion. , As if he didn't care, he passed by and strode forward, looking into the distance but already implying murderous intent." The change in the first and second sentences is to use more comma clauses and make reasonable use of word clauses such as "that" (which can be understood as "that" in clauses in English) The third sentence is to remove the meaningless conjunctions "que", "jiu" and "ye" that even interfere with reading, and adjust the word order. In this way, the character's movements are continuous and natural, rather than like a model concave shape. And the author may have been in the army or have an official status. I always feel that the writing has an inescapable sense of old-fashionedness and a sense of teaching readers how to read. There are many places like this, which makes this novel very difficult to read. Many words even need to be read twice to understand. I think the fluency of an article is far superior to its beauty. First, it must be smooth, and then it must express more meaning. Not only the sentences, but also the paragraphs in the text are open to question. Many times, it is clear that time or space has been transformed, but the author fails to explain it reasonably. I often realize after reading a few paragraphs that they are not talking about things that happened at the same time. I think the author must express clearly when the time and space changes in the story, such as "a few hours later", "waiting for Nanli and his party to enter the city" and so on. It would be better to divide it into paragraphs, or even into chapters, etc. My humble opinion, I hope to discuss it with the author and readers. Because I very much agree with the idea of this book and the author's potential as a newcomer, I hope that the author can pay attention to some expression problems and put some effort into the article itself.
The comment section is a bit outrageous, the book is indeed good, but not to the point where it surpasses 99% of historical novels. In addition, it's not that you can't use dialects. Just use a few common words to increase the recognition. As a person from the border area of Hubei and Chongqing, I can barely understand it, but my head hurts. Stop doing thankless things.
