Chapter 27: The Coming
Qiu Wuji didn't know if even his own poetic name was a work of fate.
If Chu Ge had original intention, water was her, and sky might refer to Chu Tiange, so water followed sky.
But from another perspective, isn’t the sky Chu Ge himself?
He is the god of that world.
So the water follows the sky?
To the point that when I wanted to change my nickname, my mind went blank and subconsciously I still came up with this one.
Looking up at Chu Ge, he was smiling broadly. I don't know if he was thinking of anything deeper. Most likely not. He was just simply happy that she still used what he gave her.
Forget it, I am Qiu Wuji anyway, so what does it matter if I change or not? She didn't say anything, put away her phone and whispered, "Let's go buy some groceries."
Seeing that she seemed to be distracted, Chu Ge asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"Um, nothing much. I was wondering if I should buy a cookbook."
"Oh, you don't need to buy this thing. Now we have mobile phones and computers. We can directly check what kind of dishes we want to make. There are also many food-related live broadcasts and videos, etc., so we can learn directly."
"What... is that?"
Chu Ge laughed: "It should be said that these two things are now the most important magic weapons in this world. When you are familiar with them, you will be a modern person."
…………
After returning, Qiu Wuji carried the newly bought vegetables into the kitchen, and Chu Ge continued typing. Now he felt that he had entered a very wonderful state while typing.
In the past, every time I posted a chapter, I would rush to read the comments and chat in the group. Now, I just finish writing and don’t care about anything else.
I don't want to be upset by the controversy, but I also feel like my mind isn't really on it.
The most important soul of a book is already vividly beside you. The smell of cooking is coming from the kitchen, and the image of Qiu Wuji reading a book while cooking with magical powers seems to emerge in your mind, so real.
So does it matter how the book is written?
The greatest value seems to be to complete the world and make her existence more solid. The meaning of the work stops here. What does it matter whether others praise or criticize her? Fail? At worst, she can go to work. Can she starve to death?
His Buddhist mentality made him feel more relaxed and at ease, and he wrote faster and faster. He added more chapters yesterday and even had half a chapter left in the draft.
I spent so much time exercising and shopping this morning, but it seems I can still update once before lunch. If there is no one to disturb me later, I might be able to update 10,000 words today, which would be a record.
The later plot belonging to Qiu Wuji mainly revolves around collecting materials for the Four Symbols Array and other items that are helpful for ascending and overcoming tribulations. This is the main line related to her. In the process of collecting, there will be various plots, some related to Chu Tiange and some unrelated. After all, Chu Tiange's level is relatively low and he cannot be involved in too many high-end battles.
If it were written in the original way, the plot related to Chu Tiange would be heavily emphasized, and Qiu Wuji's own plot would be briefly introduced, which would be regarded as "what the character does outside of his role". But now Chu Ge would subconsciously focus on describing Qiu Wuji's personal role, making it seem like a "double protagonist".
In order to prevent this feeling from being too prominent, Chu Ge also pondered whether he should write more independent scenes of other people. This way, it would be similar to a group portrait writing style.
It was difficult to control and it began to exceed his ability, but who cares? He just kept writing.
A new chapter was released. Chu Ge was about to run to the kitchen to chat with Qiu Wuji when he heard a "beep beep" sound. QQ was ringing.
Take a closer look, editor...
Chu Ge's heart skipped a beat. Could he have encountered the same thing as Zhang Qiren?
"What instructions do you have, editor?"
"Your word count is almost there. I applied for your recommendation, and the editor-in-chief approved it. Save more manuscripts these days and write a thank-you note."
"Thank you, great!" Chu Ge was both surprised and puzzled. He was surprised that none of the books he wrote had been recommended. Although the current traffic status of this thing has been surpassed by the opening screen promotion, it once had the historical significance and honor of being the biggest recommendation. It was an affirmation of the work, and it was something that the great writers would write thank-you notes for.
I've been losing interest in reading recently, and now I can finally have this good thing happen to me?
I'm wondering if recommendations are usually notified via SMS on the site, and almost all editors' QQ signatures say "Mo Wen Recommended", so why would they take the initiative to say this? It doesn't make sense.
The editor's next sentence was: "You have been writing well recently. The editorial team is very optimistic about it. Keep it up."
Chu Ge: “?”
It’s exaggerated enough that the editorial team is following the new chapter of this recently released masterpiece, and it seems that the writing has been a bit self-indulgent recently, but they are optimistic about it?
As an old loser, Chu Ge didn't dare to ask too many questions to the editor who was known for being aloof. He thanked him again and closed the chat box with a confused mind.
Another private chat avatar flashed, and Chu Ge recognized Zhang Qiren's flashy hair at a glance. His mood calmed down a bit, and he clicked on it and asked jokingly, "How's work going?"
Bullying others by taking advantage of one's power: "I'm so busy, but I still feel more comfortable writing. Although I'm poor, I'm free and don't need to be controlled by others."
Chu Ge said: "It's almost the same, actually. We also have editors above us... but the way they manage us is a little different. In the end, it depends on people's appreciation."
"That's true. I haven't said a few words to the editor. Once I said that, it was removed from the shelves. Haha." Zhang Qiren laughed casually and changed the subject to ask, "You have been acting strange recently, Brother Chu. I haven't seen you spamming in the author group for a few days. I haven't seen you reply to the book review either. You are like a ruthless updating robot."
Chu Ge said vaguely: "You didn't make any bubbles either..."
"I'm busy."
"I'm busy too..."
"Are you busy dating?" Zhang Qiren made a funny expression and finally said what he meant: "I saw you shopping with a beautiful woman."
"Hiss... I'm shopping during normal working hours, are you slacking off? By the way, what's your position now? Is the company nearby?"
Chu Ge was clearly trying to change the subject, but Zhang Qiren didn't pursue the issue and just said, "Bring him out to see me some other day."
"...asking about your work."
"You're a security guard, not too far or too close. I was chasing a thief with someone this morning and we couldn't find him. There were so many people in the business district that I couldn't find him. But I saw you by chance. Brother Chu, you should be careful. There is no security in our community. You don't even need to swipe your card to enter or leave the community. Be careful of thieves."
Chu Ge was amazed: "With your body, you can actually catch a thief!"
Zhang Qiren made a hip-armed expression: "The thief is afraid of your skin, not your flesh."
Chugo pointed out, "Can you outrun him? So you got outrun by someone else."
He took advantage of his power and left the chat room swearing.
Chu Ge scratched his head, feeling something was strange. Although he hadn't answered Qiu Wuji's question in a roundabout way, Zhang Qiren had been talking for a long time but still didn't say what company he worked for.
Both of them listened to your words as if they were listening to a speech.
"It's time to eat." Qiu Wuji's voice came.
These three simple words shattered all the thoughts, just like the gentle breeze on a summer afternoon scratching the heart, swaying it.
"What's wrong? You look so smiling." Qiu Wuji didn't know why he wanted to hit someone when he saw this expression, so he said stiffly, "Is the pain in your body gone?"
"No... I got a good thing today. Well, it can be roughly understood that I was also rewarded by the sect to enter the Sutra Library. How much I can convert into cultivation depends on myself."
Chu Ge's explanation to Qiu Wuji was the most intuitive and accurate. He knew their side too well... Qiu Wuji knew that this was indeed a good thing and couldn't help but smile and said, "Are you going to get the treatment of the protagonist?"
Chugo blinked and looked at her without saying anything.
Qiu Wuji was stunned, and her smile turned into murderous intent - was she being treated like the protagonist but was being treated like him?
Chu Ge quickly lowered his head and ate his meal: "Maybe the appearance of the heroine brought luck to me."
This full desire to survive...
It was obviously round and sounded very nice, but Qiu Wuji still felt that he wanted to beat him more and more. It seemed different from beating him when he first came here... He just wanted to beat him.
The two of them were silent during the meal. After finishing his meal, Qiu Wuji put away his food with a stern face and turned to go into the room: "I will use the midday yang energy to practice for a while. Please don't disturb me if you have nothing else to do."
Chu Ge wanted to say that I have more Yang energy here, pure Yang! But he knew that he would be beaten to death if he said that, so he had to go back to his room and take a nap.
This vivid life is around me, but I don’t know when we can take it a step further?
On a summer afternoon, the sun was blazing outside, the air was dry and quiet, and the occasional cicada's call made people feel as if something was about to sprout in their hearts. Chu Ge was confused and wondered, is this summer or spring?
At this moment of complete silence, a figure gradually appeared on the door.
The figure gradually became more and more solid, and actually "walked" out directly from the door.
Wall-walking technique!
