Chapter 310 The whole city is raising chickens, ducks and geese
[Chapters 304-307 have been half rewritten. The operating mechanism of the Jade Dice has been changed, the Xiaotian Sect makes a brief appearance, and I've also explained the wooden plaque incident involving Shen Xun and Zhu Wuyao, based on the discussions I've seen in the comments. This section will be deleted tomorrow.]
Zhu Wuyao is completely innocent.
As a writer of traditional Chinese novels with integrity, how could she possibly get stuck here!
Even in the manuscript she gave to Ink Trace Bookstore, there was a chapter at the end where the parrot clearly said—
"Ah hey!"
"What is this? Give me some more!"
But Mohen Bookstore has been operating for many years and has long since figured out how to play with fragments, and knows even better how to arouse discussion among readers.
If that last sentence were added, it would still be a hot topic of discussion, but it certainly wouldn't be as agonizing and unsettling as it is now!
A reader in front of the Ink Trace Bookstore angrily threw down his book and cursed:
"Damn little bell!"
These ten thousand book reviews, truly worthy of being from the same family as Mohen Bookstore, prompted the scribe to immediately begin writing upon seeing them:
"In front of the Ink Trace Bookstore, countless people angrily threw books and cursed Doraemon."
The "Ten Thousand Books Review" was, after all, in a transitional phase, including not only on-site notes but also articles by book reviewers. Therefore, when Zhu Wuyao obtained this issue of "Ten Thousand Books Review" at the Zhaixing Tower, the two were extremely separated.
If we only look at the reporter's on-site record—
The book "The Real and Fake Heiress" is finished.
Hopeless.
Everyone who read it wanted to curse it. The crowd was filled with righteous indignation, and the Mohen Bookstore was almost besieged by the angry crowd. Those who read the article threw their books down.
But if you read the reviews by book critics—
The book "The Real and Fake Heiress" is a waste.
The commentators were probably all paid bribes and speaking against their conscience.
Zhu Wuyao opened the first book review and saw the first sentence:
"The book 'The Real and Fake Heiress' has a similar style to the novel 'The Real and Fake Heiress'. As soon as it was published, it caused a sensation and stirred up a huge wave."
...It has a lingering influence of the silent tradition.
What a fine example of tradition! You really know how to talk.
Zhu Wuyao continued reading with some mixed feelings. The book reviewers' evaluation of this article was quite exaggerated. In just the first few chapters, Xiao Dingdang was almost on par with Wuyu.
Compared to the previous on-site report... this really looks like it was paid off.
Your Ink Trace Bookstore is really something; you've mastered this hype technique without any instruction.
No, it's time for "Youdaoshi" to make a comeback.
I need to write a short story to let Youdaoshi turn in his grave first, and then let Youdaoshi write a book review for Xiaodingdang. That's what I call—I'm praising myself.
As for where he went before?
Of course, it's because he disappeared without a trace. As the saying goes, he felt deeply lonely, so he stopped writing and withdrew from the literary world.
Now that Doraemon has suddenly appeared, I am overjoyed, which is why I am making a comeback!
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
Poor Wuyuzi is at home reading through "Ten Thousand Book Reviews".
What he saw was not a polarized attitude among the people, but rather—
With this book, Doraemon has received both praise and criticism!
Previously, his novel "Reborn as a Dog Demon" was able to stand alongside several popular novels on the market and secured a place in this vast collection of book reviews.
However, the highlight he wrote specifically for the fight with Doraemon only received one book review!
Moreover, the book review also pointed out incisively:
"The plot development is somewhat disjointed and rushed."
This made Wuyuzi even more indignant.
Now, this little Doraemon, as soon as he appeared, was praised for "having the legacy of Wuyu", while Wuyuzi could only call himself "a lackey of Wuyu".
What angered him even more was—
He had read Dingdang's book, "The Real and Fake Heiress".
This book is... really well written...
No wonder no one accused Xiao Dingdang of plagiarizing his book. The system's settings were so impressive that even his rival was amazed, let alone others.
It seems that after Wuyu pioneered the rebirth genre, Xiaodingdang will likely become the pioneer of the system genre as well.
If we can't suppress Doraemon as soon as possible, given time, the difference will be like heaven and earth. It would be miserable to be in the same era as a writer like him.
Just like back then, people only knew Wu Yu and You Daoshi from the storytelling world; all other storytellers were just fleeting clouds, merely background figures to complement these two.
Thinking of this, Wuyuzi couldn't sit still any longer.
He planned to go out and send invitations to the other writers he knew, so they could get together sometime.
He admires Wuyu, but he doesn't want a figure like Wuyu to appear in his era.
I imagine other writers would think the same way!
As a result, once she stepped outside, Wuyuzi was even more devastated.
How come there's been a sudden surge in poultry farming in Beixuan City overnight?
Is nobody going to do anything about this?
"Make way, make way."
Wuyuzi waved his hands in front of him, deflecting the swarm of pigeons.
A man enjoying the cool evening air by the roadside saw this scene, fanned himself, and laughed:
"The last time I saw a scene like this was more than ten years ago, after the release of the speechless novel 'Sword Immortal Master,' countless beggars appeared in Beixuan City."
"Yes, I never expected that after so many years, the appearance of a book would actually set off a trend of raising poultry in Beixuan City. It's really absurd."
"Hey, you old hag Li, after reading 'The Real and Fake Heiress,' didn't you ever think about buying something to keep her company?"
"Haha, to tell you the truth, my family has been raising chickens for a long time. After the younger generation in the family brought this storybook home, they started looking at the chickens differently. These days, they've been helping me feed the chickens and collect the eggs all day long..."
"Could it be that they're hoping for the 'system's' favor?"
“I asked her, and my naughty eldest daughter said that even without the system, she would like to raise a chicken for fun.”
……
Wuyuzi finished sending out all the visiting cards.
This time, he dared not be arrogant again and threaten Ink Trace Bookstore with the threat of halting the manuscript...
Because he already knew—if he didn't write it, plenty of others would!
With Xiao Dingdang, the writer who "carries on the legacy of Wuyu," Mohen Bookstore no longer needs Wuyu himself.
Therefore, he dutifully brought the manuscript with him when he went out.
As soon as he stepped into the Ink Trace Bookstore, his face immediately fell.
The usually scholarly Mr. Zhou was now gently stroking an owl's feathers!
The strangest thing is that the owl didn't fight back.
What about your self-respect as a wild animal?!
No... Mr. Zhou, what about your dignity as a scholar?
How can you live under the same roof as an owl and look at it so affectionately?
Looking at Mr. Zhou's gentle, expectant gaze, Wu Yuzi felt goosebumps rising all over her body.
If Zhou Fa knew what Wuyuzi was thinking, he would probably roll his eyes at him.
Was he looking at an ordinary owl?
He was looking at his own spirit stones and spirit plants!
In the cultivation world, although there is a rudimentary way of raising spirit beasts, it is not a systematic approach. They are mostly used for companionship or as mounts. Although some spirit beasts can provide assistance in battle, their role is generally limited.
The powerful demonic beasts, however, are more demonic than beastly.
