The old cow and the unicorn arm

It's going to be on the shelves.

Unexpectedly, I would write a comment on the release in this life, and Lao Niu was a little confused.

Just imagine - Ten years ago, you were young and a good basketball player. You once sweated and rained on the court on countless sunny mornings or dusks with dead leaves. You also made friends with countless like-minded brothers, and received loud cheers and praise from girls.

Suddenly one day, you were injured, broken, and broke your legs. Then you left the court, took off your jersey, studied hard, took the exams, and then entered society, wore a suit and tie, worked hard, got married and had children. Not only did you not play basketball for a long time, but you didn’t have time to watch NBA for a long time. The unique rubber smell of basketball and the "squeaking" sound of sneakers rubbing on the court was so far away that it seemed like it was a matter of the previous life.

Then, on this day, there was no reason at all, and you didn’t know what happened. You suddenly “pushed” and appeared on the court. You were not wearing a suit but a vest, you were holding a computer but a basketball, and you were about to enter the real game!

At that time, you must have been as confused as an old cow at such a moment.

Because, although the court is still the same, the rebound is still the same, and the basketball is still the same.

But the people who play basketball have changed, the people who cheer have changed, the tactics have changed, and even the rules have changed. Nowadays, basketball can actually be played with feet!

This is what Lao Niu, the "newcomer", discovered when he came to his current starting point.

It was like a trilobite from the Cambrian era that surfaced from the deep seabed, but found that it had become a completely new species that was completely unacceptable to the environment.

Not only writing techniques, narrative style, story rhythm... these things have brand new ways of playing, but also "Golden Three Chapters", "Short-term Goals, Medium-term Goals, Long-term Goals", etc., which sound very high-end, atmospheric and high-end.

How to slap in the face, how to control the rhythm, new skills to show off... all must be learned from scratch.

Even the name of the novel is completely different from several years ago.

Especially when Lao Niu clicked on the happy science fiction section and found that readers like to watch "Ship Girl, American Comics, Marvel, and Moon", he even felt a deep sense of disconnection, "Damn, what is this? Damn, what is this?"

So when I first thought of the idea of ​​"Forty Thousand Years of Cultivation", Lao Niu actually refused.

Future cultivation, or science fiction cultivation, is not a new idea.

From Huang Yi's "Star Son" to Mo Yan's "Star Wars Heroes" series to Dian Xuan's "Stories of the Gods", many senior experts have tried to explore this field, even much earlier than "classical cultivation" like "The Journey of Ethereal".

But today, from "Piaomiao" to "Mortal" to so many excellent works, the classical cultivation is carried forward, and the future cultivation is still... it is a waste of money!

This shows that there will definitely be great flaws in future cultivation, or extremely high writing difficulty, or it will be extremely unfavorable to be popular in the market.

And the greater possibility is that the above three exist at the same time.

No one wrote it, it’s not that other writers were so stupid that they didn’t find such a “creative” subject, but only Lao Niu discovered it.

No one wrote because all writers discovered such a "creative" subject, but after careful consideration, everyone thought that this subject was too difficult to solve and too insignificant, so they gave up.

Other writers are so smart, and Lao Niu is not stupid either.

After thinking about it carefully, Lao Niu decided to give up, change the subject matter, write about the Hot-blooded Soldier King's return to the city, or watch a few more episodes of "Iron Man" and "Spider-Man" and "Isn't it easy and enjoyable to write some American comics infinity streams?

However--

When Lao Niu found that he was sitting in front of the computer somehow, he opened the document somehow, and somehow typed out the words "Forty thousand years of cultivation, Rust Lake, Starry Federation...", Lao Niu knew that it was over.

The old cow's unicorn arm broke out again.

The attack of the Kirin arm is a very painful thing. It will enter a state of "will write even if you know that you don't make money, even if you know that you don't like readers, even if you know that cultivation and technology are super difficult to integrate, even if you have to spend time and energy, even if you have to spend time and energy, even if your lumbar muscles are strained and your fingers are worn out, you have to write and write even if you have to write and write, and you have to keep writing and writing."

Qilin Arm is a terminal illness of the writer. Once it occurs, there is no cure.

Then there is nothing I can do, I can only keep writing.

For Lao Niu, writing itself is not a difficult task. Although it is tiring, it is very tiring.

The difficult thing is the readers' reaction after they are posted online.

To be honest, Lao Niu didn’t have much confidence at that time.

Because the subject matter itself is a bit biased, Lao Niu's writing style is also a bit old, and the rhythm is still a few years ago, and a villain can step on 200,000 words.

Instead of killing eight villains in three chapters like the new generation, it is as refreshing as it can seduce two beauties.

Besides, Lao Niu’s theme is also a very clichéd “hot-blooded, fighting, friendship, protection” – it sounds weak.

So Lao Niu is really worried - if anyone can read such things, such styles, and such topics after writing them?

Although the Qilin arm will continue to write even if no one reads it, but...

Damn it's completely old man showing off! Which writer really wants no one to read what he has worked hard to write! This is all about the scene!

Fortunately, with the support of all friends, before it was released, the data of "Forty Thousand Years of Cultivation" had far exceeded Lao Niu's psychological expectations.

What makes Lao Niu happiest is not the data itself, but the sudden realization of something through data.

Some things will be outdated, and some things will never.

The theme will be outdated, the creativity will be outdated, the writing style will be outdated, the routine will be outdated, the face slapping method will be outdated, and the golden fingers will be outdated.

But passion will not be outdated, friendship will not be outdated, persistence will not be outdated, and dreams will not be outdated.

As long as it is written about passion, friendship, battle, persistence, protection, and dreams... there will always be someone who loves to read it, and there will always be someone who is moved.

very good.

Because Lao Niu can only write, and is only willing to write these things.

Dreams, friendship, passion, hard work, and victory after fighting with all your might... Lao Niu can only write these old-fashioned but timeless things.

After "Forty Thousand Years of Cultivation" is released, it will continue to tell the story of persistence and giving up, dreams and reality, protection and destruction, friendship and strong enemies...

Finally, thanks to editor-in-chief Winnie and editor-in-chief for giving Lao Niu this opportunity.

I also thank all the friends who have always supported this book. In the past month and a half, every click, every recommendation ticket, every reward and every comment seemed to have brought Lao Niu back to his youth. The golden years of typing on the keyboard for the first time is ashamed because he is not energetic and Lao Niu cannot take more time to interact with everyone. I am really sorry.

Of course, I would like to thank my friends who are willing to support, subscribe, reward and vote for monthly votes after "Forty Thousand Years of Cultivation" is released.

Although I am a bit vulgar when I ask for subscriptions and monthly tickets, as Lao Niu himself, I don’t want to write anything for the purpose of commercialization.

But after all, it is not the time for one person to eat and the whole family to be hungry.

Behind Lao Niu, there is also a family who needs to protect him, and there is also the responsibility of his wife, children, and the elderly.

Because typing takes up too much time and energy, and the care of his wife and children is not enough, Lao Niu feels very guilty.

If we can get more support from everyone and allow Lao Niu to provide more material protection for his family, then Lao Niu can also be more calm and stable in the wording.

In short, the support of all friends determines the future of "Forty Thousand Years of Cultivation". From this moment on, we will pursue our dreams together and gallop across the sea of ​​stars!

Let’s talk about this first. The whistle sounded and the ball game began. Lao Niu was going to play hard.

Whether you win or lose, Lao Niu will keep writing anyway.
