There are books in every genre, but I mostly recommend according to my own taste. I hope good books won’t go unnoticed, and that more people can find stories
[Mystery and Supernatural] For the Old Guard of a Fading Genre
As everyone knows, Qidian's mystery section has been half-dead for a while because of a certain someone. Even so, plenty of people still dive headfirst into this pit out of love for the genre.

♛ The first book I read was Zhu Xian, and I was hooked from then on. I read pretty much every genre. I generally avoid stories with cheating or where the heroine gets passed around. ♛ Completed works, ongoing stories, and promising new ones are all included. I’m very sensitive to flaws: if several things I can’t stand show up in a row, I’ll delete a book in frustration, no matter how long I’ve followed it or how much I’ve tipped the author.

Tomb raiding is dangerous, so enter the profession with caution.

It meant that upon entering an ancient tomb, one had to light a candle in the southeast corner before opening the coffin. If the c

Heartfelt Recommendations from a Veteran Reader
Books I think are basically good. Feel free to take a look. I especially recommend Interface Card (Ruo Shu). The style is rugged, the imagery realistic, and the writing is still quite nuanced.
First-Rate Novels
No introduction needed. Most of these are very well written, but few ever reach the ending. Some stop halfway through, while others rush into a terrible ending. If you haven't read any of them, I recommend giving them all a try.

It's finally finished, let me tell you my thoughts (it's a bit long): I personally feel that the first half of this book is better than My Cell Prison and The Gentleman of the End. It can be seen that the author really wants to write some suspense and horror elements. Including the simulation mission of facing zombies for the first time, or the subsequent four events, it can be seen that the author tried to write horror things. Although I must admit that I was not scared, at least I felt the author's sincerity. Furthermore, the concept of corners is also very attractive. It is extremely threatening to human beings and cannot be guarded against. Not only physical corners, but also psychological instability will give people the opportunity to hear the whispers in corners and become pseudo-humans. The mystery in the corner also fits the suspense classification of this book, making people want to find out. I remember that every time some corner-related settings appeared at that time, it would make me feel more satisfied with knowing more about the corner, including corner coins, corner wanted orders, etc. If the feeling that the corner brings to me is a feeling of mystery and wanting to have a glimpse of its true face, then the feeling that the real hell gives me is a feeling of nostalgia. I miss the original chainsaw manual. When I see the appearance of the chainsaw spine, this emotion really reaches its highest point. Although the elements of the prologue Hell Monk are repeated from the previous books, I still like the image of Mr. Hawke. In short, if I give the first half of this book a score of about nine out of ten, I really like the first half. But in the middle and second half, this book gave me less feeling than the first two works. Let me talk about the rhythm issue first. In my opinion, in the author's works, there will be a plot dividing line between the first half and the middle and second half. In my Cell Prison, it was the London Game, and in The Last Gentleman, I had William going to the City of Evil. In this book, I originally thought that the corner screening was a watershed in the plot. After the corner screening, I originally imagined that there would be many plots to depict the growth of the protagonist, just like after the end of London Game, Han Dong also spent a lot of time growing up. Although The Last Gentleman did not particularly focus on William's growth, it at least gave a detailed description of how Yi Chen progressed step by step in the City of Evil. But this work seems to lack such a process. After the corner screening, the protagonist just experienced it in the Tomb of the Gods, and then went directly to the central prison at a super fast speed, and then began to move towards the finale. It makes people feel very anxious! With all due respect, the author couldn't think of a way to make the protagonist grow up, so he skipped to the end. I originally thought that the number of words in this book would be at least more than that of The Gentleman at the End, but it turned out to be even less than that of The Gentleman. At the beginning, when the corner screening was over, I thought this book was only in the middle stage (after reading some of the comments at that time, I was probably not the only one who thought so). There are still many things that can be written slowly, just like Yi Chen's slow experience in the City of Evil. The result really made me a little bit unbearable. Also because of the hasty ending, I felt like I couldn't properly shape the last group of death row inmates. At least compared to the group of death row inmates in the Central Prison who were the disaster in the evil city in The Last Gentleman, the death row inmates in the central prison were really inferior. The final big boss didn't have much sense of existence, and it wasn't as oppressive as Jock the Clown or even the Limp. It feels almost like the president of my cell prison. Next is the waste of many settings. Although this is also an old problem of the author, I still want to mention it. First of all, there is hell. I originally thought that the emergence of real hell could satisfy the needs of the chainsaw user manual. But... It turned out that... I was just overthinking it. Hell, to put it more unpleasantly later, is basically just a roadside place. A bunch of forces from hell were written about in the early stage, but in the end, they didn't play any roles at all. Forget about the prologue and the spine, the original pus forces had no sense of existence at all. They didn't even have a high-level person, nor did the president of the Hell Chamber of Commerce. The villain was David Dai. Agatha and Kallen, who met in Hell at the beginning, are completely out of the picture later on. If you didn't plan to write so many characters and forces, why did you write them out in the first place to give us expectations? At first I wanted to say that there was at least one overlord at the end who could have a little more graphics, but the result was disappointing. At the beginning, Hell was a world that even Mr. Kraft (Han Dong) was interested in, but in the end there was not even a scene, which is really disappointing. The human power of this book is equally difficult to contain. The human condition is less aggrieved than the previous two books, but the presence of human forces is even lower than in the previous two works. Malone and Captain Alex in Cell Prison, or Newton and Mr. Black and White all have a strong sense of presence. The Gentleman at the End also has Mr. Zed who I really like. As a result, the human power in this book is hard to describe. Only one fellow had a picture, but later on he killed all the human forces. Dyatlov, who originally thought he would have some drama, ended up being screened in the corner, and went offline at the speed of light without even knowing what his abilities were. Previously, I spent a chapter describing the names of several departments of the Bureau of Human Exploration and what their logos look like, but in the end there was no drama at all! Finally, the protagonist has too many and too many abilities, and even though he has many abilities, he has little use for them. It feels like someone took a bunch of stuff and piled it all in a warehouse to gather dust and not use it. At first, when the Chainsaw Spine appeared, I thought that the Chainsaw was finally returning to its glory, but as a result, the Chainsaw's presence was pitifully low. I also got a fighter's brain from the evil game, but I don't remember using it once. Even the image of a murderer was not carried through to the end. On the contrary, Yi Chen, who was the final gentleman, maintained the image of a murderer until the end. As mentioned earlier, in the first half of the book, you can at least feel that the author is deliberately creating an atmosphere of suspense and horror, but in the second half, he seems to have completely given up on it. Isn't this book in the suspense category? What about the suspense that was promised? It seems that it has completely transformed into a routine for killing monsters and upgrading. I can give it nine points for the first half, but I can only give it four to five points for the middle and second half. It's really far behind compared to my Cell Prison and The Gentleman of the End. Originally, I thought this book could be better in terms of honor compared to the first two books, and the exit index could be higher. I had a chance to get one glory star, but it didn't happen. Finally, let me finish with a few words. Thank you to the author for bringing this work. I hope the next one will be better.
A sudden idea, let's see if it becomes a prophecy
Is it possible that Mr. Di in the opening chapter is the squad leader who is truly "resurrected" in the later period? The squad leader took Roddy's place in jail to cover what he was doing. It shouldn't be difficult for a puppet whose origin is "disguise" to pretend to be Rody. This can also explain why Mr. Di wanted the diary, because she wanted to peep into what happened to Rody in recent years when she was not around and didn't know. If you think carefully about Rody's hatred for the puppet, it would be difficult for her to be willing to stay in prison and cooperate with the officials who cooperated with the puppet under their supervision.
Wu Wen
Drawed based on Ah Fei's description at the beginning
I read more than 90 chapters and then scrolled through the comments section. Why do you want to resurrect the squad leader?
But the more and more chapters 90 or so are read, the more and more something doesn't feel right 1. The protagonist's relatives were killed by the dummy, right? 2. It was the squad leader who opened the space for promotion tasks, which indirectly led to the death of 57% of the school's teachers and students, right? 3. Opening the promotion mission description must have killed a lot of people, right? 4. The squad leader approaches the protagonist just to kill the protagonist and gain stronger power, right? 5. If it weren't for the explosion, the protagonist would be dead, right? So in the above five points, what mentality does the protagonist have to resurrect the squad leader? For example, let's take Japan as an example. It's equivalent to a Japanese female spy who has killed many Chinese people with bad intentions. Her close relatives were killed by the Japanese. She wants to use the protagonist as a military merit (become stronger), and successfully kills 57% of the protagonist's military camp, and her close comrades also died as a result. In the end, the spy tried to kill the protagonist but was killed by the protagonist, but the protagonist still chose to forgive? What logic? Just rely on those few words before being killed in the end? And you will be resurrected later anyway, so why do you want to kill? And it is not in line with the character. My parents were killed by the dummy, and I hated the dummy so hard. In addition, the following results were added: the same kind was killed by the squad leader (point 3 above), the classmate died because of the squad monitor (point 2), Lao Gao was killed by the squad monitor (she was not the one who killed him, but she was the one who caused it) In the end, he actually killed and resurrected her?
The first volume is really hard to comment on. It was pretty good at the beginning, but why did it fall apart at the end of the volume? Madness didn't notice it, but God did, and the heroine was cleared up just by talking about it? Did you leave such a blank space? Just write that the deputy squad leader was killed by the painting before meeting the heroine. It would be better for the heroine to use her corpse to provoke him than to write it like this. It is really invincible to use a normal way to create an annoying ending and the character. You wrote so much just to make the heroine black at the end and be killed and then whitewashed? Is he a human? I have to ask. In the end, the description makes it seem like the squad leader is a scheming bitch. You write a story where they seriously beat the male protagonist and kill the female protagonist, and give some ambiguous information, such as saying he will die in your hands without meaning. Then at the end, Teacher Guo said during the chat I met the heroine and then blah blah blah. This whitewashing technique is no better than what you wrote. I really wanted to die at the hands of the hero. After the hero evolved, why would I run away? I really couldn't escape and finally accepted my fate and said, "I will die in your hands and kiss you and you will be whitewashed?" The deputy squad leader didn't make it clear who killed her, so I'll just assume that she did it. Then what qualifications do you have to be cleared? If it was not the author's mistake but her own thoughts and wishes that cleared her up, then it would highlight the characteristics of the heroine as a scheming bitch, not to mention that the heroine was resurrected in the book review section? Brother, are you an innocent primary school student? Are you so easy to deceive?
Might as well open the book early
If you don't turn it on earlier, you won't turn it on later. If you turn it on now, it will be a conflict with Yuantong.
Why is the monitor so charming? Can you charm the protagonist to death? I used to think that the protagonist was pathologically abnormal, but when faced with the squad leader, I seemed to have become an infatuated person again. Then I feel that the protagonist's obsession with becoming a murderer is so imaginary. I will talk about why the protagonist is so obsessed with becoming a murderer later. I feel that it just throws out a murderous protagonist without deepening the character creation (I personally don't like this heroine. I have basically read Ah Fei's previous books and I think the character of the cracked girl is pretty good)
