Summary at the end of Volume 1
As for my thoughts on the creative state, I actually already discussed it in a single chapter in the 600,000-word summary, so I won’t go into details. The current state is getting better and better, and the ideas are getting clearer and clearer.
But after writing one volume and two hundred and sixty-nine chapters, there is still a lot to summarize.
Volume title ruling.
In fact, this can only be said to be a decent volume title with no mistakes. In fact, before I started writing, I seriously considered the title of this volume... because when I outlined it, I focused on the second half of the book, so the entire The first volume only plays the role of "introduction" and "presentation". Since I didn't think of a very good volume title, I finally chose a relatively flat and concise volume title, which just corresponds to the overall content of the first volume. main line.
The story of the first volume is actually very simple.
On the bright line, Gu Shen joined the Judgment Office and became a member of the Federal Parliament.
Behind the scenes, Xiao Gu has realized that the Federal Parliament is not as great and bright as he imagined. He took over the declining [Ancient Literature Society] and secretly accumulated strength. At the same time, the extraordinary world of Wuzhou emerged bit by bit. .
The word "Judgment" actually comes from Lu Nanjin's somewhat unconventional words to Gu Shen. In fact, Senior Sister Lu has always been an innocent and stubborn person. Unlike Mr. Shu, she did not present " "Complete" character.
Because he left Dadu alone, with no other support except the long knife in his arms, he could only firmly believe that the "justice" in his heart could bring light to the case in Lion Alley.
Above the crown hangs justice and righteousness.
In Nan Jin's view... the tribunal where he has been performing tasks for ten years, and his teacher, represent such an image in the extraordinary world.
And the "guilty people" in this volume all seem to have received the "judgment" they deserve.
For example... the "Xiao" of the Jiujiu Foundation, "Qin Ye" who caused the Lion Lane massacre, and "Zhao Qi" who banished his wife.
But whether the decision is actually made or not...it's up to you to decide.
Perhaps this is why Nan Jin decided to leave Dadu.
The pace of this volume is indeed a bit slow. The reason why it is so slow is because I am trying to outline a world where "what the protagonist sees is what the reader sees". It always takes time to go from an ordinary person to an extraordinary person. What he sees, Every bit of what he came into contact with, led to changes in Xiao Gu himself.
In addition, due to the characteristics of online serialization and my own creation speed, when encountering certain plot points that require careful consideration, I will choose the writing method of "not seeking merit but seeking no fault", which leads to transition chapters The plot progression is a bit tired, but fortunately the climax chapter is powerful enough, and the current average subscription has exceeded 3,000... However, this seems to cause everyone to start reading in the transition chapters, and the number of subscriptions has dropped.
In the second volume I will try to control the rhythm a little tighter.
The story of the Fortress of Light is a difficult story to open. I said when I put it on the shelves, I said that looking back at the first volume, you will find that the overall framework is shot out and then returned to the cage...Zhou Jiren, Baizhu, Nanjin, Song Ci, Mrs. Zhao Xilai, Gu Nanfeng, etc... In another parallel universe, they were all people with their own lives, and they also had their own persistence before Gu Shen appeared.
For me, the difficulty lies in how to follow the characters' thoughts after they meet, support the plot, and reach the "end" I envisioned.
After half a year of serialization, I also made a lot of cuts in the overall outline of the first volume. The final effect is quite satisfactory. The "lead-out" effect is as expected. I can give it a score of 70 points. No matter what...now Xiao Gu secretly sat at the card table and had his first hand of cards.
The second volume will be "progressive" and should not be too long.
The second volume is probably the story of Xiao Gu starting to "play cards".
