Chapter 812 My Sword Is Still Here (Part 2)
Clicking on "The Legend of Wukong", the main text came into Qin Lian's eyes.
However, just after reading the first paragraph, Qin Lian was a little stunned. He always felt that the text in this new book of Qingda was full of spoofs.
The polite and gentle Tang Monk was even more arrogant, Wukong was arrogant with a stick, Zhu Bajie dared to challenge Wukong, and even the monk Sha, who was remembered to have the best temper, was fierce. The four masters and apprentices no longer had the shadow of "Journey to the West"!
"Could it be that Qingda's new work is taking the route of kitsch and spoofs?"
Qin Lian couldn't help but frowned. He had a great interest in "The Legend of Wukong", but the first paragraph of the main text gave him a wake-up call.
But after all, he had waited for two years, it was impossible that he didn't have even this little patience, and this plot was just the beginning. It was a very stupid behavior to deny the value of the whole book based on the beginning of a book, so Qin Lian just breathed a sigh of relief and continued to read along with the main text.
The following development still had a lingering sense of spoof.
Qin Lian's frown deepened, and just when he was about to lose his patience, he suddenly uttered a light "huh".
The text reads: ["Sun Wukong... You are Sun Wukong!" The woman hugged his legs: "Is it you? Really you? Am I dreaming?" She raised her ugly face and looked at Sun Wukong with infinite affection, tears actually fell from her eyes. Sun Wukong felt his whole body tremble, as if all his internal organs were beating. He thought, what kind of magic is this? He felt that he had a thousand pounds of power, but it was useless at this moment. ]
Sun Wukong was kind to the monster?
This female monster seemed to have some kind of helpless hardship in her words, and Sun Wukong's reaction was too unusual. Although Sun Wukong's character in this book is very unusual, this plot makes people feel that it is the most suspenseful.
Qin Lian felt that things were not that simple.
Who is this female monster, and why does the female monster seem to know Sun Wukong?
At this time, Qin Lian himself did not realize that the disappointment that had spread was gone, and was replaced by curiosity about the plot. The various descriptions of Tang Seng and Wukong did not seem to be a spoof, but a very special way of writing. He could not help but continue reading.
As Qin Lian continued to read, the plot was also progressing slowly.
["The Amitabha who hates death, has gone through thousands of sins, and has not given up." Tang Seng straightened his rotten clothes and walked out of the forest. "You guys chat slowly, I won't disturb you. I'm going to take a walk in the beautiful forest, hoping to meet a fairy like a sprinkling flower..."]
Qin Lian murmured and repeated Tang Seng's words: "After thousands of sins, I have not given up..."
How could this be a spoof of Journey to the West? This is clearly a work full of depth and thinking. When Tang Seng continued to say "Don't die, don't live alone", Qin Lian's feeling became stronger!
A spoof article, there will be such deep thinking?
A spoof article wouldn't have so many classic and Zen-like sentences, right?
Qin Lian's reading speed slowed down unconsciously, and the first chapter began to end. The female demon looked up, and her eyes were tearful under Wukong's stick: "Before I die, I want to ask you a question, Sun Wukong, if you forget everything, will you really be free of pain?"
If you forget everything, will you really be free of pain?
Sun Wukong found that he couldn't do it. He couldn't kill the demon that made him suffer...
Qin Lian stood up from the chair, his expression somewhat excited: "Sure enough, Qingshan Zhanjian is Qingshan Zhanjian. He won't write any vulgar spoof works. Although the language of this "Wukong Biography" seems to be casual, it has a unique flavor after careful consideration!"
Thinking like this, Qin Lian read the second chapter, the third chapter...
A novel of more than 100,000 words is not long. For old bookworms who like to swallow it whole, it only takes one or two hours. Even readers who read a little slower only need three hours at most to finish the whole text of "Wukong Biography".
So what after reading it?
Tang Sanzang, Wukong, Bajie, Zixia, Xiaoyao, Bailong, after a series of tragic and comedic scenes, Qin Lian understood Bajie's mood, Tang Sanzang's difficulties, what Sun Wukong had forgotten, and how painful the monster that Wukong was reluctant to kill was...
They all lived so hard.
This was a journey to the West that was completely different from what he remembered, so Qin Lian was inexplicably stunned by the cold ending of "The Legend of Wukong".
A kind of emotion called melancholy was brewing in his heart.
Qin Lian understood three things. The first thing was that he had not yet understood "The Legend of Wukong", the second thing was that he had to read "The Legend of Wukong" again, and as for the third thing...
The writing skills of Qingshan Zhanjian have improved.
Yes, Qin Lian always thought that "Life is Long and Hateful, and the River Flows East" was the peak of Qingshan Zhanjian!
Before Qingshan Zhanjian, who could have thought of subverting the second creation of Erlang Shen Yang Jian in Fengshen? Who could have thought that a nearly stereotyped character would break through the chaos and become flesh and blood under the pen of Qingshan Zhanjian, and even the emotions of sadness and joy were controlled by this author called Qingshan Zhanjian?
Therefore, "Life is Long and Hateful, and the River Flows East" is the peak!
Qin Lian is looking forward to Qingda's new book, but he never expected that Qingshan Zhanjian's new book could surpass "Life is Long and Hateful, and the River Flows East".
But now, Qin Lian realizes for the first time that it seems that "Life Grows Hate Water Changdong" has been surpassed. In "Life Grows Hate Water Changdong", Qingda created a powerful image of someone who devoted all his energy to those before him and behind him. But in "The Legend of Wukong", Qingda almost recreated the group portraits from Journey to the West!
The four masters and disciples, plus the group of white dragon horses.
The inseparable love between Zhu Bajie and A Yue, the passionate but repressed feelings between Sun Wukong and Zixia, and the sad affection between Tang Seng and Xiao Bailong were all transformed into real scenes and played in Qin Lian's mind, and each scene went from beautiful to beautiful. To pieces...
"What is the truth about Journey to the West?"
"The seeds have taken root and sprouted. What does it mean?"
"The way of Jin Chanzi and Tathagata, who is the real way!"
Various questions began to appear in Qin Lian's mind, but there were still no answers.
Moreover, whether it is a mythical love epic or a prose, even the definition of the subject matter of "The Legend of Wukong" has suddenly become blurred, because this "The Legend of Wukong" is all-encompassing, and its scope has far surpassed Qingda's previous work "Life" "Eternally hate the water and the east".
Qin Lian decided to watch "The Legend of Wukong" again now!
