"Have you heard? Pi Xiake is going to open a new book tomorrow! Haha!"
Yanhuang Academy, cafeteria, lunch time.
"Damn it! I almost forgot that this guy had promised to publish a new book in March! I didn't expect that March was almost over before he said he would publish it. What a scam!"
"Hey! Yanfu! Is your news reliable? Is Pi Xiake really going to open a new book tomorrow?"
"Hey! Is there still a lie? It is said that early this morning, more than a thousand people came from Chang'an City to write a new book, and the editorial office of "Datang Daily" was blocked. The professor's intervention calmed those people's anxiety. The most important thing is that Professor Ma said at that time that Pi Xiake's new book will be released tomorrow!"
"Huh? Haha! That's great! I've been waiting for his new book for half a year! Oh, but it's a pity that tomorrow morning, we have to plant trees with the mountain leader, and we don't have time to buy a newspaper! What a pity! !”
"Hehe! Brother Zhangsun, don't worry, my book boy will buy it for us in advance! When we come back from planting the tree, we can just pick up the newspaper and go to the academy!"
"Haha! Yanfu, you are so thoughtful! This method is very good~!"
In the cafeteria, Chang Sun Chong, Chu Yanfu and others were eating and talking about the lively things in the workshop in the morning. When they talked about the excitement, their laughter could cover up other noisy sounds in the cafeteria!
As the saying goes, the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. After hearing what they were talking about, a group of people immediately gathered around!
"Xiao Chong, you just said that Pi Xiake is going to release a new book? Is it true~?"
Cheng Chumo came over and said excitedly.
"Of course it's true! How can Yanfu's news be false~?"
"Haha! So what's the name of Pi Xia Ke's next book~?"
Chu Yanfu replied at this time: "I don't know about this! But Professor Ma definitely knows!"
Cheng Chumo scratched his head and said hesitantly: "Forget it then! I won't ask anymore! Anyway, everything will be clear when tomorrow arrives!"
Asking him to go to Ma Zhou, the leader of the Confucian Studies Department, he was still a little timid!
Not far away, in a corner.
After hearing the discussion over there, the three of them looked at each other, put down their bowls and chopsticks, and walked out of the cafeteria together.
"Tianhua, Hongyi, did you hear that? They said that Pi Xiake will release a new book tomorrow. Alas, what is supposed to come will always come. By the way, there are basically no new novels in "Dahua Jianghu" this month. Everyone is giving Pi Xiake, give way!"
The three of them walked out of the cafeteria, and one of them, a young man of medium height, said.
The person speaking was none other than Liao Feichen, one of the so-called "Three Heroes of Jin Yu"!
Chen Tianhua was not as pessimistic as Liao Feichen. He smiled and said, "Feichen, you don't have to say such depressing words! Although Pi Xiake's influence is huge, the release of his new book will also have a huge impact on the popularity of the entire "Dahua Jianghu". By then our readers may gradually increase! Besides, aren’t you curious about what book Pi Xiake will publish this time? For us, this is also an excellent learning opportunity!”
Hua Hongyi laughed and said: "Haha! Fei Chen is right! I am also very curious about what book Pi Xiake will publish this time. Of course, more importantly, I finally have the opportunity to compete with him on the same stage and compete against each other. It’s off! Haha! I’m going to take a class off in the afternoon and go to the editorial office of Datang Daily!”
Hearing this, Chen Tianhua and Liao Feichen were stunned. After being stunned for a moment, Chen Tianhua said: "Hongyi, you... you don't really want to publish the book on the same day as Pi Xiake~?"
Hua Hongyi nodded and said matter-of-factly: "Of course! I told you all before! As the saying goes, a gentleman's words are hard to follow, so how can I break my promise now~? I have already prepared the manuscript. , I will show it to the editor of "Dahua Jianghu" this afternoon!"
Liao Feichen even suspected that his friend was out of his mind. He said: "Hongyi, it's hard to say whether your novel can pass the editor's eyes! I asked you to give the manuscript to me and Tianhua to review first. You don’t want to, now... ugh!"
Hua Hongyi said: "Feichen, I appreciate your kindness! However, my novel is not of the same genre as what you are writing. Even if I read it to you, you can't give me any advice. It is better to submit it directly to "Big Talk" Editor of "Jianghu"! Okay, let's not talk about it for now, I'm going back to the dormitory to get the manuscript!"
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..
Li Zexuan, who was sitting quietly and meditating in the study room of the other courtyard, naturally didn't know that someone wanted to challenge him in the novel field. This guy had been sitting in the study room since lunch and told Han Yuxi not to let anyone disturb him.
Is he thinking about what to write in his next novel? Oh, no, I should say which master’s work should I learn from!
After sitting here until evening, he still couldn't figure out what to write!
It’s not that he doesn’t have anything in mind, it’s that most of the famous novels that were popular in his previous life are time-travel and golden-finger types. This kind of novel is definitely not suitable for him to write in the Tang Dynasty;
As for traditional martial arts, such as Master Jin Yong's novels, although there is no time travel and Golden Finger, and the plots and text are also wonderful, most of Master Jin Yong's works are set in the Song Dynasty and after the Song Dynasty. If he wants If you want to learn from it, you may have to fabricate a dynasty that did not exist in history. In literary terms, this is called fiction, but in that case, the sense of substitution will be much weaker!
After all, Master Jin Yong's works, in addition to showing the wonderful battles in the world, are more importantly about expressing the noble feelings of "a great chivalrous man serving the country and the people"!
If dynasties are all empty, it will be difficult for people to get into that kind of sentiment!
Therefore, the requirements for Li Zexuan's next novel are that there will be no time travel, no cheating, and no fictional background that will affect the sense of substitution!
There are actually many novels that meet these three requirements, but in addition, they must be ones that Li Zexuan likes and have wonderful plots. In this way, there will be many fewer novels to choose from!
"Hey! Got it~!"
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Li Zexuan's mind and he shouted excitedly!
"Bang bang!"
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door outside.
Li Zexuan was stunned and realized that it was Han Yuxi who was calling him to eat. He hurriedly said: "Madam, come in!"
There was a "squeak", and sure enough, it was Han Yuxi who walked in wearing a white undershirt!
It was a March night, although it was a bit cold outside, but the heating in the other courtyard had not stopped, so it didn't feel cold at all.
"Ms. sir! I knew you were busy, so I brought the food. You can eat some first!"
Han Yuxi came over with a food tray and placed the food next to Li Zexuan. Inadvertently, the hair touched Li Zexuan's face, and the aroma from the hair made someone feel itchy!
"Ahem! Madam, I just got some inspiration for you. I'll eat it later! Madam, go and rest first!"
Forcibly suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Li Zexuan said seriously.
Han Yuxi knew that Li Zexuan had been sitting quietly in the study all afternoon, just thinking about the novel, so she didn't want to disturb him after hearing this, so she had to say: "Then my husband, you must remember to eat, and I won't disturb you anymore!"
After saying that, Han Yuxi turned around and went out, and Li Zexuan was the only one left in the study.
"Alas! Others stay up at night reading swords, but I, the Marquis, stay up at night writing books~!"
Li Zexuan muttered something, rolled up his sleeves and started to write. At the beginning of the paper, there were two big characters "Zhu Xian" written boldly!
