[Turns Out I'm Shennong]
🍀 When will the good books return? I raise my cup to ask the heavens. I don't know what year it is in the world of web novels. I long to ride the wind home, but I'm afraid of unfinished books and toxic weeds; this reading slump is too much to bear. What use is trying every herb when the good stuff is nowhere to be found? 🌙 The moon turns past the tower, shines through the low window, and falls upon those still awake. Why should immortal herbs be left unfinished? People have joys and sorrows, par

Lighthearted, Offbeat Picks for Veteran Reader Black Cat Jue
These days, I prefer books that feel fresh. Something lighthearted is even better. Lately I've been into farming and development stories, fan fiction, historical tech, and the like. The ratings are for books I've read at least part of. If I kept reading, it means I could get through at least the beginning, so none are rated below 5. Books rated 5–6 usually fell apart later or became ridiculously padded, XXX, so I changed their ratings.

If I could go back to that era, I would rather die than not return to China, even if it meant being cannon fodder, I would still follow in my teacher's footsteps.
In 1924, everyone in the business world was about power and influence.
What's the use of someone being very skilled? If someone shoots you with a 75mm caliber "sniper rifle," you'll have to run several kilometers to even try and cut them down.
This novel is all text; don't you find it tiring to read? 🙂
In 1924 America, there must have been a lot of gunfights. If the protagonist is alone, it'll be tough. Unless he can't physically withstand bullets, a dozen or so guns can threaten him. The protagonist there must be very skilled in combat.
I suggest writing less about the "top center" point in Bajiquan. The chest muscles are most developed there, and it's close to the arm, making it difficult to land a full hit. Given the same opportunity, wouldn't an elbow strike to the head do more damage than a strike to the chest? With the same arm movement, the Rising Dragon Uppercut is the true god!
On the battlefield, a two-handed longsword is practically useless.
Frankly speaking, on the battlefield, to save your life, a one-handed goose-feather saber and a small round shield are far more useful than a two-handed longsword. Especially in chaotic battles, don't even think about using a two-handed sword; it's pointless. A one-handed halberd and a small round shield are enough to both protect you and deal damage.
Has this been transported to a two-dimensional world, and in the early 19th century, a $5000 intelligence fee? Want to hear what you're talking about...?
The writing and plot are all fine; it's a good novel. However, I don't like the author's style. Too many authors write about the West, but the core of their work has a Western paladin vibe, which is quite annoying. It's like they're telling you, "I'm a good person, I'm well-mannered," which is purely self-indulgent. The novel itself is good, but this vibe makes it unreadable. Keep up the good work, author.
I don't know why, but this book lacked the motivation to keep reading. 🤔
The protagonist is an incredibly unlucky guy; nothing he accomplishes is easy... Accidents keep happening during various missions... After reading 147 chapters, it's really exhausting to keep going...
