ALL NOVEL Chapter 2 Boundless Autumn
Chugo's rental house is obviously quite far away from the luxury coffee shop in the city center. For ordinary Internet writers who never leave home, there is not much difference between living in the suburbs and living in the city center. The biggest difference is that The rent is much cheaper.
After casually eating a bowl of fried noodles, I returned to the rental house. It was almost dark, and the small living room was a bit bleak.
This is a rented house with two bedrooms and one living room. There are no lights in the two rooms, but the crackling sound of typing can be heard from one of them. The rhythm of fingertips floats in the dark room and spreads into the equally dark living room. It is obvious that Someone was making noises, but it made the rental house even more empty and silent.
That was Chu Ge's writer friend, and they shared the rent together.
This friend has a very ancient name, Zhang Qiren. When Chu Ge posted the sharing information on the writers forum, he also intended to find a writer friend to promote each other. Zhang Qiren was also looking for a house. The two hit it off and have been living together for less than half a year.
In the end, I found out where the mutual promotion came from, it was all bullshit.
"Have you eaten?" Chu Ge asked casually.
A response came from the room: "I was doing something casually just now, and suddenly Quan Siru had a diabetes collapse... Eh? Did you have a blind date collapse when you came back at this time?"
"It's broken, just like your Quan Si." Chu Ge opened his door and was about to enter the house.
The sound of typing on the keyboard next door finally stopped, and a thin man with glasses appeared at the door. He looked at Chu Ge's blind date style and said, "Our Brother Chu actually has a bit of Daniel Wu's style. How female?"
Chu Ge was annoyed: "Zero points."
Full marks for fuck, no zero marks for basic operation.
Zhang Qiren quickly showed an expression of "I understand" and said with great regret: "I won't leave a photo for my brothers to look at..."
Chu Ge remained silent and secretly thought that if the photos were really taken, you would probably tell me where I could find a picture online to fool you... How could there be such a beautiful woman on a blind date?
Zhang Qiren asked: "What's the reason this time? Household registration? Money? House?"
Chu Ge glanced at him and suddenly smiled: "Because we are homeless."
Zhang Qiren's smiling expression was a little stagnant, and his voice suddenly became louder: "These frogs in the well know nothing. Thirty years in the east of Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully... uh, are you still a teenager?"
Chu Ge did not answer the last sentence, but said: "So come on, swim to the west of the river as soon as possible."
Zhang Qiren nodded: "By the way, Brother Chu, my new book will be on the shelves tomorrow, remember to recommend the chapters."
"I haven't forgotten, I'm remembering it."
"Thanks in advance... I, I'm a little panicked." Zhang Qiren rubbed his hands unconsciously and whispered: "The recent data... seems to be very cold."
In fact, his data had been mentioned several times before. Chu Ge also felt that he was a bit cool, but he could only repeat the encouragement he had said several times: "Don't be afraid, this stuff is very mysterious, and some people see it as popular. Not many people subscribe, and some people look at the niche but are more die-hard... Anyway, it's a matter of life or death, so there's no point in being nervous..."
Zhang Qiren forced a smile and said: "That's right, never mind it. It doesn't matter whether you live or die. If you are popular, you are a young model in the club, but if you are not... I am a young model!"
Chu Ge: "...Have you ever thought that maybe you are not popular because you are too vulgar?"
"You make it sound like you are not obscene. Who wrote about the sisters in the last book..."
"So I'm not angry either."
"Then do you still write about sisters?"
"Write."
"...one of my generation."
Zhang Qiren had something on his mind, so he didn't talk much. The two of them went back to their houses. Chugo made a cup of tea, sat at the computer desk and opened a document. He never moved except for going to the toilet.
This is the daily life of Chu Ge and Zhang Qiren.
If it weren't for the fact that Chu Ge's blind date had some real topics, the two of them didn't even chat much like this on weekdays. They obviously lived together, but they were more accustomed to communicating on the Internet.
A very common scene is that the two of them are sitting side by side eating in the fast food restaurant downstairs, but at the same time they are using their mobile phones to slap each other in the author group... It seems that they are more familiar with the avatar in the group than each other's face.
Chu Ge doubted whether he would lose his language function if he continued... Today, he was eloquent and incoherent in front of Gu Ruoyan, which also showed that he was not used to normal communication...
Okay, why do you think of her again?
Chu Ge's fingers hovered over the keyboard, and he thought for a while. He wondered if he could add such a character in the book, an intellectual white-collar woman in the workplace... But he wrote about a fairy, and this image should probably correspond to a certain character. The middle and high-level people in the sect were conquered and overthrown by the protagonist... Yeah.
It's a bit troublesome, because there is already an established heroine image that is somewhat similar to this - the sect leader of the protagonist's sect, one of the strongest monks in the world, has been on the verge of ascension, and is also the most beautiful woman in the world.
And she will be the main target in the next stage.
Yes, Chu Ge writes harem novels, and he is somewhat famous in the industry.
As a harem writer, Chu Ge knows that the key is to write out the characteristics of different female characters. This female sect leader is noble, proud, elegant, and domineering. In fact, she is very different from Gu Ruoyan. However, if a female white-collar sect character is added, she will appear somewhat similar and it will be difficult to distinguish her characteristics.
It’s better not to think too much and write about this female sect leader, she is the number one heroine.
This book has just been released not long ago, with only two to three hundred chapters in total, and the plot has not yet been fully developed. At this time, the protagonist "Chu Tiange" was just a small character. Because of an accident, he was appreciated by the sect leader and was directly promoted from a humble handyman to an inner disciple. The sect leader also gave personal guidance from time to time. This was the beginning of the protagonist's rise.
At this stage, the protagonist still regards the sect master as his teacher and respects him very much; the sect master only sees the protagonist as someone who can be made into and supports him a little.
As for how the protagonist's filial piety will deteriorate later and how the clan will start to eat young grass, we still need to design a long-term plot, but now we can start to foreshadow it.
For example, let’s start with a profile of the sect leader’s psychology. Sometimes he feels lonely, sometimes he reflects on what is missing in his long practice career, is there any reason why he has never been able to ascend... and so on.
Why would an old man who has been pure and stoic for thousands of years become romantically involved? This is all pre-logic.
Chu Ge is still very attentive.
"Qiu Wuji opened the window and looked at the moon. The moonlight was like water, shining lightly on the world, reflecting her perfect profile, hazy and dreamy. She was quietly lost in thought for a long time, vaguely thinking in her heart, after ascending, would she land in the middle of the moon? If so, Is it just from one lonely place to another even more lonely place..."
The name of Boundless Autumn is taken from Jiaxuan's poem: "The Chu sky is thousands of miles away and the autumn is clear, and the water follows the sky and the autumn is boundless." It exactly echoes the name of the protagonist Chu Tiange, and it is also an ingenuity. If Chu Tiange is Chu Ge’s own projection, then Qiu Wuji is probably all of Chu Ge’s expectations and fantasies about the ideal type in his heart, and he has poured deep emotions into it.
The reason why I said to Gu Ruoyan, "Sometimes it's less, but this month it's over 10,000" is precisely because the previous book was very good, and the results of this book are getting better and better - characters who are devoted to their emotions will naturally get Readers’ affirmation.
"For some reason, Chu Tiange's smiling face suddenly flashed across Qiu Wuji's heart. That sunny smiling face is so special in this fairyland where everyone is pursuing their own goals, and it can make people feel happy..."
Chu Ge's fingers were like flying. The more he wrote, the more he felt. It was as if as the words emerged, he could see a stunning fairy looking at the moon through the window, confused and lonely.
So much so that I seemed to be able to feel the cold wind from the open window, seeping in from behind me, sending chills down my back.
Huh, that’s not right…
My window is in front, why is my back so cold?
Chugo turned his head in confusion.
A cold light flashed, and a long blue sword was placed on his neck. The biting cold seemed to freeze even his soul.
Chu Ge stared blankly behind him. A woman in ancient costume put a sword on his neck and stared at his documents with a confused look.
The air seemed to be silent for a few seconds, and it seemed that only a moment had passed. Before Chugo could react in his mind, he heard the woman say word by word: "You dare to write that I fell in love with that disciple. I fought hard for the collapse of the world, but I’m going to take your life!”
Everyone in Chugo was dumbfounded: "No, who are you?"
The woman's eyes retracted from the document and fell on the tip of the blue sword: "Autumn is boundless."
Chu Ge: "???"
