8:00 a.m. Qinzhou time.
In the study of a country villa.
Teacher Yuanyuan sat on a chair in front of the table and took a brand new novel from the hand of someone next to her. On the cover of the novel were two cute mice. The mouse on the left was sitting on a toy plane, and the mouse on the right was sitting in a toy tank.
The words "Shuke and Beta!"
The back of the book says "楚狂·著".
The woman who casually tore open the cover and bought the novel for Teacher Yuanyuan smiled and said, "It's quite interesting in Huaxin Bookstore today. The promotional banner actually promoted this book and Teacher Ahu's "Cat Adventures" at the same time, and claimed that this is the ultimate battle in the long fairy tale circle."
“That’s how I was promoted before.”
Teacher Yuanyuan casually said: "But I seem to have held back the Qinzhou fairy tale circle. The fairy tales written by Ah Hu are indeed more interesting. There should be a lot of mourning in the circle recently. If there was no news about Chu Kuang releasing a new book—"
"Do you think Chu Kuang can win?"
"You'll know after you take a look."
Teacher Yuanyuan shook the unwrapped novel in her hand and took a deep breath of the fragrance of ink: "I especially like the smell of new books. It smells good. This novel should be great."
The woman next to her curled her lips.
Don’t all inks smell the same
Teacher Yuanyuan ignored the man's thoughts and just smiled as she opened the title page of the novel. The beginning of the novel also appeared in front of Teacher Yuanyuan: "Shuke was born in a family with a bad reputation..."
Fairy tales don't require any brainpower.
Especially for adults like Teacher Yuanyuan, reading fairy tales only requires scanning the plot at a glance. As a result, as she was reading, Teacher Yuanyuan suddenly burst out laughing.
What an interesting story!
Shuke didn't want to be a mouse with a bad reputation, so he disguised himself as a pilot and went around saving lives. In the end, he succeeded in gaining the friendship of ants, bees and sparrows. But when he was about to have dinner with these friends, a cat appeared.
The cat reveals Shuke's identity.
Everyone hates mice, and the cat thought that Shuke would no longer be loved by everyone. Unexpectedly, people did not reject Shuke because he was a mouse. Instead, they asked the kitten to let Shuke go. In the end, the kitten could only leave in shame.
This is why Yuanyuan smiled.
The villain of the story turns out to be a cat.
When seeing such a plot, normal people would suspect that Chu Kuang wrote it this way on purpose, with a hint of sarcasm, because the protagonist of Mr. Ahu’s fairy tale seems to be a cat.
Hey hey hey
Teacher Yuanyuan suddenly remembered that her protagonist was also a cat, so she laughed even more happily, especially when she found out later that the protagonists of the book were actually two mice, and the other mouse was called Beta and was good at driving a tank.
We have two cats!
Chu Kuang has two mice!
But it is indeed a coincidence, because mice and cats are natural enemies, so it is normal for this fairy tale to use cats as villains. Moreover, looking at the description in the book, although the cat is a villain, it has not done anything unforgivable.
Teacher Yuanyuan thought so.
While Teacher Yuanyuan was reading "Shuke and Beta", our Teacher Ahu was also reading the same book, but it was difficult for him to laugh out loud like Teacher Yuanyuan.
…
Many people bought "Shuke and Beta", but not everyone chose to read it immediately. Some people bought it directly for their own children. It is difficult for adults to get interested in fairy tales.
Rather than caring about the content.
Everyone is more concerned about whether Chu Kuang's long fairy tale can win back honor for the Qinzhou fairy tale circle, because A Hu's fairy tale sales and reputation are quite good, and the other party even beat Teacher Yuanyuan.
“When will the results be out?”
"It will take several days if the gap is small."
"If the gap is big, one day is enough."
"We can make this analogy. If Chu Kuang's ability in writing short fairy tales is 100%, then as long as his long fairy tales reach 80% of the level of short fairy tales, he can easily beat Ah Hu."
"almost."
"Why 80%? I feel that Chu Kuang can win as long as his long story is 70% or even 60% of his short story strength. His short stories are at the level of one against nine. He is officially certified as the king of short fairy tales by the Literature and Art Association!"
"Fifty percent is enough!"
"You guys are getting more and more exaggerated. The question now is, how much worse is Chu Kuang's long story than his short story? If Chu Kuang's long story and short story are of the same level, then Ah Hu really has no hope at all."
"… "
The above group of netizens are obviously from Qinzhou. When they came to Yanzhou, they changed their statements completely: "Short fairy tales are short fairy tales, and long fairy tales are long fairy tales. Qin people like to talk about them in the same way."
"that is."
"Long fairy tales need longer outlines and more exciting story lines to connect them. Otherwise, famous fairy tale writers in the fairy tale world would not be able to distinguish between short stories and long stories. Everyone has their own strengths."
"Ahu will win!"
"Chu Kuang was overwhelmed by the victory of one against nine. I can understand it. It's just like when I won the championship in an amateur singing competition, I thought my singing skills were invincible. But when I went to the entertainment company, I realized how ignorant I was."
"… "
It is said that the butt determines the head.
This statement has been most fairly proven in the discussion between Qin and Yan people. The people who are more fair than Qin and Yan netizens should be Qizhou and Chuzhou netizens. However, the opinions given by netizens in the two continents are:
"Fifty-fifty!"
The outcome of either side is unpredictable!
But is the outcome really unpredictable? The answer to this question gradually became clear at night, because not everyone was the type who didn’t read books and just chatted online. Many people also bought a copy of "Shuke and Beta" and went home to read it.
Not necessarily out of interest.
Just some curiosity.
As a result, this curiosity was eventually transformed into the first batch of readers' comments on "Shuke and Beta", which appeared one by one on the main comment interface of the novel on Xingkong.com, attracting many netizens who had not read the book to watch:
"Chu Kuang is so interesting!"
"I bought it for my son, and I just flipped through it, but I couldn't stop reading it. Shuke flew a plane, Beta drove a tank, and fought with the kittens in various battles of wits and courage. I laughed out loud several times, and now my son wants to snatch the book from me."
"I love Shukebeta so much!"
"Aren't cats the most interesting? The protagonists of Teacher Yuanyuan and Teacher Ahu's fairy tales are both kittens, but when it comes to Chu Kuang, the protagonists become two mice. The kittens are the villain bosses who are beaten at the beginning."
"Shuke and Beta are really good friends!"
"These two Zhixing people are so handsome. I remember that when I was a child, I loved model toys. I could put my hamster in them and then use the remote control to drive them. Even now, I am still a model lover. Shuke and Beta have fulfilled my childhood dream!"
“It seems like the kids like it especially.”
"I haven't finished reading the book yet, so I quickly went online to make myself known. Teacher Ahu is gone now. Shuke and Beta is probably the kind of fairy tale I liked to read the most when I was a kid. It's thrilling but not cliché. The two mice are the protagonists, driving planes and tanks all over the place, which really hits the spot for kids!"
"… "
Seems pretty good
These initial comments that appeared on Star.net formed the first impression of "Shuke and Beta" among netizens who had not read the book, and this impression showed no signs of changing as the number of comments increased. Instead, it became more and more lively.
at the same time.
In many families with children, the children are watching "Shuke and Beta" intently, turning the pages from time to time, with nervousness and excitement written all over their faces. They seem to be worried about Shuke and Beta's another adventure, and seem to be excited about Shuke and Beta's another victory.
…
It’s still Qinzhou.
After watching half of "Shuke and Beta", Teacher Yuanyuan took a sip of tea and smiled at the woman next to her: "Cats and mice are indeed natural enemies, but cats are usually at the top of the food chain, and mice can only run away when teased by cats."
"so what?"
"There are exceptions."
Teacher Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes.
The woman next to him patted her head and said, "Speaking of mice and cats, I saw a very funny animated picture a few days ago. It's probably the situation you are talking about. I'll send you the picture."
The woman took out her cell phone and operated it.
Teacher Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, then picked up her mobile phone and opened the picture sent by the woman. She was stunned when she saw the picture: she saw a mouse bigger than a cat eating cat food.
The cat approached cautiously.
This cat is blue and white.
The mouse looked back at the cat, then turned around and continued eating the cat food, but just flicked its tail. As a result, the cat was so scared that it turned around and ran away, hiding in the corner and trembling as it watched the mouse eat its food, which gave people an extremely cute feeling.
"What the hell..."
Teacher Yuanyuan laughed so hard that she fell backwards. This is a special breed with a huge body, bigger than a cat. It is normal for a cat to feel scared: "Your picture is good, but it will be mine in the next second."
As they were talking, Yuanyuan logged into the tribe.
She didn't say anything else, she just uploaded this interesting animated picture. Within a few minutes of the posting, many fans left comments below.
"This cat is so miserable."
Jinshan forwarded the post.
Kiki also forwarded the post.
Master Wugui followed suit and reposted the post, leaving a comment online: "I always thought cats were the nemesis of mice, but I didn't expect there are cats in the world that can't beat mice. Is this a matter of tonnage crushing the food chain..."
Cat and mouse
Where is the promised war
Finally, he locked onto the border of Yanzhou. Teacher Ah Hu closed the book in his hand with all his strength. After a few seconds of changing his expression, he suddenly sneezed loudly: "Why is the smell of ink in the new book so pungent!"
Then there was silence.
Ah Hu has a dream. His dream is to have a time machine, even if it is a one-time consumable. Anyway, as long as it can adjust the timeline, it will be fine. Well, this is actually a dream he just had five days ago. His dream five days ago was to be able to travel to five days later -
Now he wants to go back five days.
You can save your reputation, but you can't take revenge.
The vigorous regional dispute seemed to be slowly coming to an end in an almost humorous way. From Chu Kuang defeating nine opponents alone to the final unique "cat and mouse game", it was as interesting as a long fairy tale.

ps: Thank you very much for the reward from Mr. Zinc Luan. I have become the 31st leader of this book. There will be more chapters, but I owe you all a lot of updates. I have to write them down in my little notebook and repay them slowly. I kind of regret the promise of three guaranteed chapters (>﹏
