Trickster Hunter

A little chat on the fifth anniversary of my recovery.

Today is a very special day for me.

To put it in a more middle school way, it should be called "the day of opening a new chapter in life".

Old readers who have read my old books "Wasteland Survival Guide" and "Alien Ruins Hunter" should know that before these two books, I abandoned a steampunk book called "Ashes of the Old World". The reason for abandoning that book was partly because the results were not ideal, but the main reason was that I was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, type M5B, on July 15, 2019.

I really don't want to recall the pain of the treatment process again. I feel like I am like the protagonist of a novel. I stepped half a foot into the gate of hell several times, but I survived in the end... During that time, I witnessed the departure of many patients who had lived in the same ward... Fortunately, my luck is pretty good. The gene mutation type is low-risk, and my body is very sensitive to chemotherapy. I don't even need stem cell transplantation, but I have achieved complete remission with chemotherapy.

Readers who know something about medicine should know that cancer that has not recurred for five years is considered "clinically cured"... and today is exactly the fifth anniversary of the initial diagnosis.

In these five years, many people have helped me, including my parents, doctors and nurses, relatives, friends in real life and on the Internet... and many strangers I have never met... The disease made me feel the malice of fate, but at the same time, it also made me feel the kindness of people.

I still remember that when I just finished treatment, someone suggested that I post my story on platforms such as Bilibili or Weibo, saying that doing so would benefit from traffic dividends. There are many people on the Internet who make a living by selling misery, and they all live a good life...

To be honest, it would be a lie to say that I am not moved. After all, you don't have to do anything, just sell misery and you can get traffic and make money. Just thinking about it makes me feel good.

This is an era where traffic is king. No matter what type of popularity you have, as long as there is popularity, there will be benefits.

But I thought about it later and gave up this plan.

My parents taught me since I was a child not to consume other people's kindness. Any debt can be repaid, but the debt of favor and debt of conscience are the most difficult to repay.

My family conditions are not very good, but not very bad either. Without stem cell transplantation, the treatment costs are still affordable... Not only that, the country's various medical insurance policies are also very complete. Many previously expensive imported drugs can now be reimbursed. At least two-thirds of my total treatment costs are borne by the state.

There are many people who are in a worse situation than me and need help more than me. They need the kindness of society more than I do.

When writing this, I suddenly remembered a movie I have watched many times, "Dying to Survive".

Thank the country - this is not a joke, I sincerely thank the country.

But I don't thank fate.

Fate is my enemy, the fucking enemy I need to fight against for the rest of my life.

If fate is a person, I must find him and punch him in the face.

My QQ signature is "Surviving a great disaster will surely bring good fortune in the future."

But I actually know that surviving a great disaster is very good, and the so-called good fortune in the future is more of a self-consolation.

Fate will not let you off just because you have suffered all the hardships that others have to endure in their lifetime at the age of 20.

On the contrary, in the rest of your life, you will need to work harder to barely keep up with the life trajectory of normal people.

What a fucking shit.

My fists are hard again.

But no matter what, since I am still alive, I have to live well.

Writing books is a job, but it is also a hobby. It is a great blessing to meet a group of friends from all over the world because of writing books.

Thank you all for your company along the way.

I wish you all good health.

[P.S. Although today is the fifth anniversary, I will not take a day off today. There will still be updates later! ! ! ! ]
