I have finally found time to finish writing this testimonial. I can’t put it off any longer.
After finishing the novel "Walking to the Abyss", Zhaizhu suffered from an outbreak of urticaria, and his entire body was swollen with bumps, even his penis was swollen and doubled in size!
These days, Zhaizhu has been writing short stories while enduring the pain, exercising hard on tiptoe, and swallowing medicine in big gulps.
I have been taking Chinese medicine twice a day, morning and night, for half a year. Chronic urticaria has lasted for more than nine months, and I am basically tortured like this every day.
The swelling occurs once a week and lasts for a week.
Now, the short story is over. The urticaria on my body has partially disappeared (the tinea has finally disappeared), but I still have red spots all over my body. I am still taking medicine, and it will probably take another half a year to recover.
Now that I have talked about my personal affairs, let me talk about "Lin Yuan Xing".
The estimated word count of "Lin Yuan Xing" is only three million words.
The main purpose is to write about the experience of a person who is like a mirror. No matter who stands in front of him, he only sees himself. This person is called Su Yun.
Qiu Shuijing stood in front of him and saw his wildness, but in fact he saw his own wildness, never giving in, and even wanting to climb to the court to reform Yuan Shuo.
When Wutong saw Su Yun, he saw the demon Su Yun, who had the desire for revenge but also humanity in his heart.
Zuo Songyan saw Su Yun and his rebellious spirit, and his determination not to be intimidated by the powerful or to be tamed by money and grain.
When the aristocratic families of Shuofang saw Su Yun, they saw a conspiracy of power and a trick.
When Di Ping saw Su Yun, he saw the desire for power, and he wanted to eliminate all threats and firmly grasp power.
Luo Wanyi thinks he is the same kind as herself, Yu Daoyuan thinks he is the mastermind, Yu Jin thinks he is another self, Shui Yinghui thinks she is very similar to him...
In fact, what they saw in Su Yun was their own reflection, not the real Su Yun.
Who is Su Yun
A little blind man living in an uninhabited area, living a lie for half his life, optimistic, sentimental, very handsome, too lazy to go out, was bewitched by Qiu Shuijing to go out for a walk, and when he came back, he found that he could only succeed to the throne and become the Emperor of Tianshiyuan, although it was a life-extending act.
But he really wanted to protect the place that had deceived him for half his life.
He did not move forward, and had no intention to fight for a future, but the times were moving forward and the situation was changing, pushing him forward step by step, pushing him to the top, pushing him to face one enemy after another, facing one danger after another, and finally, pushing him to the opposite side of the Holy King of Samsara, one of the creators of this universe.
All of this is the result of the times creating heroes. This era needs heroes. Other heroes died in the process of growing up (Tie Kunlun), became lame (Yuan Jiuzhou), became stupid (Wei Zhashan), were swallowed by hatred (Yu Yanzhao), or were wiped out before they even grew up (Chu Gongyao).
Of course, there are still people who are corrupt (Emperor Jue).
Some people fall in love with coffins and beautiful women.
Su Yun is the hero left after the test of time. Eventually he has to stand at the highest point to resolve threats and face dangers, but this is not what he wants.
This is what the times want.
What Su Yun wanted at first was to return to Tianmen Town in Tianshiyuan and his past life. Later, when he planned to live in seclusion, he found that Tianmen Town was not what he wanted at that time. As time passed, he was no longer the little blind man, so he and Yingying ran away again.
Emperor Hundun saw this, so he drove him out of the Immortal Universe and asked him to go to the Chaos Sea to find his true self (that is, the process of pursuing the end of the Great Dao).
In fact, the Xiandao universe can no longer accommodate him, so it is inevitable to drive him away.
Su Yun's entry into the Chaos Sea is a process of finding his true self. Rescuing the King of Thailand is his starting point, not his end. He will also meet his old friends on the road, encounter the Tomb Universe, and ask for help from the universe he opened up, etc., but that is no longer the story of Linyuanxing.
Su Yun's attitude towards love seems to be pushed forward by Fengyun.
He likes Wutong's charm, Chi Xiaoyao's innocence, Yu Qingluo's persistence, Chai Chuxi's peace, and Hong Luo's courage to love and hate. But he rarely takes the initiative to pursue his own love, and love always comes to him.
He was forced to marry Chai Chuxi, he married Chi Xiaoyao because she had reached the stage of love and had feelings for him, he married Yu Qingluo because he needed an empress and queen to maintain his relationship with the Queen Mother, and he married Wutong because he had lost the ability to resist and was forced into marriage by Wutong.
Finally, when he needed his loved ones to accompany him on his voyage, these women were unable to accompany him for various reasons.
Only Hong Luo came out and sailed with him on the Chaos Sea, which was why he was moved to tears.
But the key point is that it was Hong Luo who chose him, not him who chose Hong Luo.
The protagonist of Lin Yuan Xing seems to be Su Yun, but in fact the protagonist is Di Jue.
Just like the protagonist of The Supreme Humanity seems to be the King of Thailand, but is actually the Taoist Master Fumin.
Lin Yuan Xing seems to be telling the story of Su Yun, but in fact it is telling the story of Di Jue.
Emperor Jue is a complex character in Lin Yuan Xing, his merits and demerits are equally great, he not only saved the human race, overthrew the ancient true gods, and brought the era of gods into the era of immortals, but at the same time he restricted the further development of Taoism and magical powers.
He was also a bit lustful and had many concubines in his harem.
How to write this character well? Zhaizhu divides him into three parts.
Then Emperor Jue died, his spirit turned into the Evil Emperor, his body turned into Emperor Zhao, and his heart turned into Emperor Xin.
The Evil Emperor seems to be evil and powerful, doing all kinds of evil, but he carries the mission of saving all living beings and finding a successor. He is the obsession of Emperor Jue, and he finally dies for this world;
Di Zhao possesses the upright heroic side of Di Jue, as well as the domineering side of Di Jue. He makes up for the role of Su Yun's father. He blocks the wave of world destruction and, like Di Jue Xiedi, dies for this world;
The Emperor's Heart is the Dao Heart of Emperor Jue. He used to be extremely evil and devoured people everywhere. After becoming an independent life, he has a pure Dao Heart. Su Yun gave him the best environment. And he became the one who saved the world.
Linyuanxing is not a story that satisfies everyone, nor is it a story that satisfies me, but Su Yun is just that kind of person, and I can't beat him.
I am most satisfied with the early part, but many old readers influenced me, saying that I wrote too deep and they couldn't understand me. That's nonsense, I shouldn't listen to them (old readers pretended not to see it), I should write more deeply.
As for the next book, I’ll talk about it after my urticaria is healed. My body can’t take it anymore and I need to rest until I recover.
During this time, I might write a short story or two.
The short story should be released in the next one or two months.
The pig wrote the above words while scratching himself and continued scratching himself.
