(As I wrote before, this is the postscript of Jiang Ye written two years ago. Due to some reasons, I only posted it in the book review area and not in the main text. I posted it specifically today. If there are any readers who haven’t seen it yet,

, I hope you can see that now, I still often miss you and me and this book at that time.)

a composition

Friends all know that when I write a novel for two or three years, I will use several versions of the synopsis. In order to avoid spoilers, often only the last synopsis is the real synopsis. The synopsis of the last version of Jiang Ye is: With the Sky

Fighting is endless fun - this is the theme, or main content, of this story.

The sky is the high sky, it is God, it is high, it is dominating. I have said a lot in the book through the conversation in the Songguo Restaurant, and I will not repeat it here. At the same time, since Jiang Ye is a romance story, then the sky here is

Naturally, it will also point to the strong person in the family relationship. The perfect unity of the two is the biggest thief in my writing of Jiang Ye, and I like it very much.

Many people have thought about the relationship between heaven and man, and everyone has thought about the things between men and women. You see, I just got Ning Que and Sang Sang to deal with this matter, how simple it is.

?

And this is a very convenient method. Just by talking about this couple, I can clearly explain the two things I want to discuss with you--that is, freedom and love.

In the back of Jiang Ye, I said that I have the best of both worlds. I said that life is precious and love is more valuable. If it is for the sake of freedom, whether to throw it away or not. In short, the central idea of ​​this story is always on these two points.

A popular novel must have a central idea, and the method is not necessarily advanced, but I have been a good student since I was a child, right?

What is freedom? I definitely can’t answer this. I can only give some simpler and simpler intuitive perceptions: For example, I don’t have to do anything I don’t want to do. Another example is that I can go wherever I want. To achieve freedom,

Then you have to have the ability to achieve freedom and break those constraints, you have to be able to fly, and you have to open the lid.

In the story of Jiang Ye, from Master to Ke Haoran and then to Jun Mo, they have always been doing this thing. The great priest Guangming who founded the Demon Sect wanted to do it but did not dare to do it. The Buddha did not know whether he wanted to do it or not.

Freedom has a reference. Immortality is the freedom from death, distance is the freedom from the end of the world, flying is the freedom from gravity, and buying a bag is the freedom from poverty. I think that if you can really practice cultivation, what will it point to?

, it must be these.

It is also mentioned in the book that freedom is the right to choose and the right not to choose. I think fighting for this is a good way to live.

Regarding these two words, Cang Hailing's book review said a lot, which is much deeper than I thought. You can just read that post.

In this postscript, I mainly want to talk about love.

In fact, he is very similar to Jianke. In Jianke, Xu Le actually understands the word morality very clearly. In the long conversation between Master Fan and Huai Cao Shi, he already made it clear that it is a whip and he is willing to do that.

alive.

The same is true for love. It does not have some kind of sacred, solemn, innate purity and inviolability. In other words, being loyal and lasting till old age is not an attribute of love itself, but human beings need that kind of love. So,

This kind of love appears.

Regarding love, I prefer the Naked Ape's view. Of course, there is no beauty in that. And of course, all beauty is constantly deepened by various cultural means to make people believe it.

After leaving adolescence, my view on love has not changed much - that is, finding a partner. Of course, this matter is not as easy as I said now, because it is difficult to find a partner.

Let’s go back to the previous freedom. What is actually accompanied by freedom is loneliness. What freedom cannot solve is great loneliness, unless you really gain great freedom and are free from the pain of life and death. Then to solve the loneliness, you need a companion. How to choose a partner who can stay with you for as long as possible? I often tell my young friends that the most important thing is that they have the same three views, and being able to chat is also very important - maybe because I am a talkative person. reason.

In addition to or above this, of course there is physical attraction to each other, but that really can't last long. Even if Taeyeon sits next to me every day, I still feel good-looking and excited when I look at Ai Shinozaki on the computer. Like the new and hate the old, who can escape?

How can we make it last? What determines the strength of the attraction between men and women? Apart from the three views, it all depends on the number of memories - the more memories we have together, the more content we can chat with, and the less likely we are to get bored, right?

Ning Que and Sang Sang grew up together since childhood. They are each other's destiny. They have exactly the same outlook on life. No one has more memories in common than them. Except for Sang Sang, who is really not good-looking, these two people are really born. A pair, because... I designed this.

Yes, I am a Sangsang Party member.

For this reason, I have been scolded a lot in the past three years, but I refuse to repent. I still don’t even understand why some people don’t like Sangsang? I once thought it was because I quit the Appearance Association, but There are many gay relationships in the association, and I once thought that it was because some readers had too strict requirements on certain relationships. Although it was clear that the master and the servant were fake, and the brother and sister had never been written about, I later found out that these reasons were wrong. Just because I wrote a mountain.

I have said before, and I have also said in interviews, that Mo Shanshan is really good. In fact, it is my description of the ideal opposite sex. There is nothing bad about him. Any man or even woman would like him.

Yes, that’s how I wrote it, I even wrote it this way on purpose, because I needed to find an opposite for Sangsang, I needed to give Ning Que a difficult multiple-choice question, and I needed to clearly describe the love thing I wanted to write about. , there must be a beautiful woman like Shanshan.

Some friends may ask, since Shanshan is so beautiful, why doesn't Ning Que like her? Why doesn't Ning Que choose her?

Please Mingjian, of course Ning Que likes her, how could he not like her? So does Ning Que like Sangsang? Of course he does. If you want to ask, how can this scum like two girls at the same time? Please Mingjian again, in fact, he once had a faint love for her. Yueyue liked Li Yu, thought Situ Yilan was good, and was fascinated by Shui Zhu. If there was enough plot space, he would definitely have a vigorous fight with Ye Hongyu!

Yes, he likes or may like many girls. This does not mean that he is a scumbag, because all men are like this. If any man dares to say that he is not, I will spit in his face or give him up.

Does liking mean a choice? I won't say that. Men are quite greedy. If he can do this, even if he doesn't have three wives and four concubines to avoid trouble, it is normal to be merciful.

There is only one reason why we don’t choose, for example, a beautiful girl like Shanshan, and that is that we don’t dare to choose. In modern society, there is bigamy, but in ancient times there were actually many rules. There is no need to mention those external influencing factors.

When it comes to the love we want to talk about, the most direct thing is that the person you love will not agree with your choice.

Love means exclusiveness.

I also like many girls, but I can’t help it after getting married, because my wife doesn’t like me and likes other girls. If she doesn’t care about me, if she likes me and likes other girls, I’ll be in trouble...

The same goes for Ning Que. He tried it before - right after returning to Chang'an from the wasteland. However, Sangsang was calm, sober, and knew what he wanted and didn't want, so he directly chose to run away from home.

That chapter was really well written.

Some readers expressed their anger towards her at that time. I was puzzled by this. Since she liked Ning Que, if Ning Que chose to like Shanshan, she should naturally leave. Could she still stay in Laobi Studio and watch them fall in love with each other?

That kind of self-flagellation is too cruel. Some readers said that Sang was using means to force Ning Que to make a choice, so she didn't like it. However, she made her attitude clear, so shouldn't Ning Que make the choice?

What is love?

Love is to find a partner and meet the one you like the most. When the person you like the most does not allow you to like other people, but after thinking about it, you find that you can only accept it, then love will happen. Or it happened a long time ago.

It has already happened, I just saw it now.

Some friends say that there are too few scenes behind Shanshan. I feel sorry for this, but this is a normal thing. After getting married, how can the little girl you liked at the same table in junior high school always appear in your field of vision?

Let me write the central idea here first. Propositional compositions are always easy to be too acidic and too shallow. But I really want to share with you some of my knowledge in the past thirty years, hoping to help young friends.

Find the right partner for you faster.

Of course, if the other person is really too handsome or beautiful, you can have a good look, chat, etc., or you can also put it aside.

two black and white

What I want to talk about here is not light and darkness. I have already written enough of those mysterious words in the book, so I will not mention them in the postscript. We will only talk about some light and happy things.

I am basically sure that "The Night" is the most beautiful book I have written. Please note that I said "the most beautiful", and this is exactly what I promised everyone in a single chapter when I opened the book.

What I pursue is that things are good-looking and relatively easy to watch. I have also told many friends that I want to write them as family soap operas, such as Laobi Zhai and Yanming Lakeside. For example, in the academy, there are often many long dialogues, that is

It's something I personally like because it's really relaxing and enjoyable.

If these alone do not constitute a good-looking picture, because the picture is too pale and lacks weight, especially since the night is windy and rainy from the beginning, and a lot of dark things are deliberately painted on the paper, then there will always be some plots that must be

Go up the blade.

In the first two volumes, Ning Que's revenge against Xiahou was dark, but when he was with Sang Sang, it was white. The arduous practice of breaking through the orifice was heavy, but when he was hanging out with Chen Pipi and other fellow academy students, it was light.

It is gloomy to go to the wilderness and meet Liansheng, but it is joyful to go with the mountain and the big black horse to bite the big white horse.

The slightly cold spring rain and the fragrant omelette noodles are mixed together to form the Spring Breeze Pavilion, and the dark night and bright light are combined to form the moon.

It's really beautiful.

three moons

There is no moon in the world at night. After the Master ascended to the sky, I said it, mainly because of that sentence: If the sky did not give birth to the Master, eternity would be like a long night. I did not finish it at that time, but also because of the bright moon in the last chapter.

When the night comes, it once again protects the world.

The Master is really a very interesting person, and the students he teaches are naturally also very interesting. This kind of fun does not lie in laughing and cursing, wandering around the world, but in not giving up ginger food and not getting tired of eating.

Those are the masters and disciples in my ideal, or in my fantasy, who take on some of the temperaments of the ancients in history, and then use them to please their own spirits. Fortunately, you and I are always connected in this regard.

It’s fun to write and read.

The only one who can compare with the Master is Sangsang.

No matter it is black mulberry or white mulberry, whether it is thin mulberry or fat mulberry, they are all powerful mulberry.

I won’t mention her much here, I’ll talk about it later.

four processes

I promised at the beginning of the night that this story would be well-written, and I should have done it. If I look back at those plots, I will easily fall into the world of narcissism again and be unable to extricate myself. Sometimes I even doubt those plots.

Why did you come up with it yourself?

Sangsang's game was really great, Master's method of breaking it was also great, the confrontation between Ning Que and Xiahou in front of the Snowy Imperial City was great, and the part where I'm not the protagonist in the book was great.

Here I borrow a summary from a friend on Weibo. (Sister, I searched for thirty minutes and couldn’t find it. That friend, I replied to you. Did you write anything about Jun Mo? What is Ning Que’s sword talisman?

The first sentence also mentions the Oracle of Heaven, please let me know via private message!)

But he also promised at the beginning that Jiang Ye would definitely write faster than Jian Ke. When he said this sentence at that time, Beier was confident, because when writing Jian Ke, there were too many trivial matters in life, and Jiang Ye would write faster than Jian Ke.

No matter how I looked at it during this period, nothing would affect my work. But... I didn’t expect that I got so sick last year, and the two years were directly delayed to the past three years. The day lilies were wilting. Fortunately, we didn’t give up on ourselves.

In the last two months, I forced my way out.

Fight until dawn.

Wearing sunglasses to watch the solar eclipse.

In fact, I also gave the Master a pair of sunglasses, which he wore to show off when he was preparing to ascend to heaven and enter the Kingdom of God. However, I was so excited at the time that I completely forgot about this, which is a pity.

Like regretting physical problems.

But Master is still awesome after all, just like Jiang Ye was a lot slower in the end, but the story is still good enough after all.

Look, I have really become a middle-aged person. I only dare to write enough boring words without repeating the awesome words before.
To be continued...
