Shenzhou Town Demon Records

Chapter 73

I received a notice from the editor in charge that it will be on the shelves tomorrow. Although I knew it would come to this point, it still feels very sudden.

This book is actually very slow, the real exciting part has not yet begun, the male protagonist is still growing, and the female protagonist has not even appeared.

Feeling the conscience, this will be a wonderful story, but limited by the many rules of the Qidian website, the follow-up author is likely to embark on the road of stand-alone self-indulgence.

But people are in the rivers and lakes and cannot help themselves. It is the responsibility of the author to fulfill the contract. The follow-up author will try his best to ensure the quality of the work. Even if only a handful of readers continue to read it, it is the motivation for the author to continue to create.

For feelings, please refer to the "Preface·Evolution" in the related work, hoping to find like-minded traditional martial arts lovers.

Finally, here is an excerpt from a column written by Kunlun Yuan, the deputy head of the book circle, and the starting point certification column owner, to share some views on the current situation of traditional martial arts:

Poetry, wine, piano and chess disappear forever, and the passing years are like water.

Spring flowers compete like dancing skirts, prosperity is like a dream, and melancholy complains about the east wind.

People are nearly middle-aged and have white temples, but their ambitions are empty.

Leaning on the railing and watching the sword like a rainbow, the pride is hard to condemn, singing Da Jiangdong.

——"Linjiang Immortal Poems, Wine, Qin and Chess Disappear Forever" [Liang Yusheng]

Traditional martial arts is represented by the works of masters such as Jin Gu Wenliang, and extends to the early works of emerging writers such as Sun Xiao, Feng Ge, Xiao Lin, Shi Weihan, and Bu Feiyan. It was popular from the second half of the last century to the beginning of this century.With the rise of online literature, traditional martial arts have also logged on to online platforms, completing the transformation from the old to the new.

It's a pity that traditional martial arts has never been able to catch the express train of the Internet age. Instead, it has been hovering on the edge. In the Internet age, there are few traditional martial arts masterpieces that have been widely circulated. Become an out-and-out niche theme.

The decline of traditional martial arts is irrefutable. Perhaps it is due to the fact that it is difficult for future generations to surpass it.There are different opinions on the reasons, but the conclusions are basically the same. Most of them are sad and sad, and there are few optimistic voices.

To write a good traditional martial arts novel requires excellent writing and sufficient ability to control classical vernacular.To this end, the author needs a lot of reading, accumulation and practice, not only reading martial arts novels themselves, but also other types of literary classics.

However, compared with the bright and lively Internet language, the words tempered in this way have formed a certain reading threshold, and rejected a considerable number of readers, especially young readers who are the main force on the Internet.Man Said is a traditional online martial arts writer who is struggling to survive today. Even if it is the classic works of Jin Gu Wenliang and others, I am afraid that not many young readers are in the mood to read the original works.

Apart from the gap in writing style, the hardcore chivalrous spirit of traditional martial arts seems to be too "main theme".The spirit of chivalry emphasizes hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and compassion, rather than fighting monsters, upgrading maps, and going straight to the pinnacle of life.In a social environment where work pressure is increasing and the pace of life is accelerating, if the purpose of reading is to relax, then there is no suspense about how to choose.

In addition, the expressive power and imagination of traditional martial arts are indeed not as good as some other themes that are popular in the Internet literature circle today, which must be admitted.After all, real knives, real guns, punches to the flesh, are not as exciting as destroying the world in the blink of an eye, and unrestrained power and unconstrained style, happy vengeance, are not as thrilling as the court and court fighting for power and overthrowing the world.

Traditional martial arts used to be the soil for the overflowing imagination of the Chinese people and a rainbow bridge leading to spiritual freedom, but now the Internet literature world is full of flowers and a hundred schools of thought contend, and the unique status of traditional martial arts has long since disappeared.This is of course a good thing for the ecology of the entire online literary world, but it is also a pity for traditional martial arts that lack innovation and are hard to return.

But then again, in terms of plot organization and character creation, I am afraid that many themes have to absorb nutrition from traditional martial arts, whether intentionally or unintentionally. If it is as clear as promised, it means that there is a source of living water"-this is what it means.

This is not to prove anything. After all, "there are talents from generation to generation, each leading the way (you know) for hundreds of years", the old predecessors will always leave the stage, just hope that other themes will uphold the traditional virtues of respecting the old and loving the young, Give the elders some necessary respect, less cynicism, and be kind to others, which will be of great merit.

Some people may still remember a traditional martial arts movie "Huang Feihong: The Wind of the King" in the 90s of the last century. This movie mainly shows the chivalrous demeanor, national righteousness and family and country feelings under the changing world. Before her death, Niang insisted on taking up the banner of "helping the Qing Dynasty and destroying the foreigners". Personally, I feel very similar to the situation of traditional martial arts today.

Although traditional martial arts may have become a rotten tree that hinders the torrent of history, those who still insist on writing traditional martial arts do not want her to fall, even if she is pierced by Wan Jian like Miao Sanniang. Still have this ambition.

　In order to maintain the continuity of the plot and leave suspense, Chapter 66 released today will be the first chapter of the VIP chapter, and this chapter has been revised as a testimonial on the shelves.Book friends who have collected this book can delete it from the bookshelf and add it again, and the chapter name can be updated.
