Searching for a Path Through the Flowers

New book

Despite another disappointing ending, the author's gentle and narrative style, as well as the protagonist's peaceful mindset, remained unchanged, which is the unique charm of the author's works.

Midsummer is almost over. The riverbank is desolate. Empty words, let us sing and drink. May you find peace and joy in this place.

I'm only now understanding the title and synopsis. Isn't this exactly what the protagonist does? By constantly interweaving various flowers 🌸, he eventually collects twelve primordial elements and finds the path to immortality.

Compared to the previous works by Ma Jia, this one is refreshing, with more foreshadowing and deeper suspense. The protagonist also has a more positive and energetic spirit. Personally, I feel that Ma Jia should take the initiative to expand the scope and develop the protagonist's skills. Instead of just waiting for the situation to unfold, the protagonist should be encouraged to act impulsively at appropriate times. I think that when collecting the twelve primordial elements, apart from the first three which should be obtained cheaply, the remaining nine should be acquired through different methods, and each primordial element should have a different effect, even if it's just transformation (｡ò ∀ ó｡). That would make the story more exciting 😄.

It's steady and captivating, but the pseudonyms have spoiled my tastes; how can I possibly read other novels now?

It was like a telepathic connection; I suddenly opened the pineapple bun and found that it really was the end?

The ending was too hasty.

So, the protagonist doesn't transform; instead, the people around the protagonist do?

I only ordered the pineapple bun because of the fake account.
