"Breath of Spirits" Author: December 30, Category: Science fiction, Future World, Finished, You Can Enjoy with Rest assured 2.

Author: Lotus Seed, Category: Ancient Romance, Clear Through the Republic of China, Finished, You Can Enjoy with Rest assured 4. "Young Feng Huang Murong Chong" Author: Mei Xiangke.QD. Category: History, Jin, Sui and Tang Dynasties, completed, can enjoy with ease. The following is a brief introduction of these novels: 1. [Spirit Breath] In the future, it would be similar to the era of universal AR, where one could also obtain special abilities after activating AR. The main character had arrived in this era in a daze. However, what was going on when he was discovered and captured after transmigrating? Could it be that this tough life would start from breaking out of prison? New book,"Supreme Grade Soul Hunter", recommended ~ P.S. Thank you to the Qidian forum cover team for providing the cover! 2. "The mystery of the third batch of agarwood incense." In the past three years, he had become more and more unable to distinguish whether the person beside him was Yulan or Yutang! He seemed to have fallen into a maze. Sometimes he felt that she was Yutang, but hadn't Yutang died of illness a long time ago? Sometimes he felt that she was Yulan, but Yulan was clearly beside him. Why could he still not stop thinking about Yulan? Sometimes, he wondered if he missed Yulan or Yutang. Thinking deeper, he could no longer tell whether he loved Yulan or Yutang. At first, he loved Yulan when she was still a student. From then on, he also loved Yulan when they reunited. However, his eyes often lingered on Yutang because she was so similar to Yulan when she was still a student, that kind of youth and liveliness. This novel imitated Zhang Ailing's novel in terms of both the background and the story. In particular, the beginning of the story imitated the first and second incense of the agarwood scraps, and the appropriate title was given. Zhang Ailing is best at writing about the love-struck man and love-struck woman in cement. I think only those who don't understand Zhang Ailing's works would say that. Although it's the most common love-hate love-struck woman in the world, Zhang Ailing's story design is extremely ingenious. Some of them are simply amazing. Those plots need to be carefully studied before you can marvel at her unique ingenuity. After saying so much, I just want to say that you need to read this novel carefully. However, in Zhang Ailing's novels, love is cold and thin, and there is no such thing as leaving someone. I thought that she was writing the most real reality. I prefer a happy ending, so this doesn't seem like it. 3. [The Pure Mulan] Other people who transmigrated were either princesses, legitimate daughters, or concubines. At the very least, they were peasant girls who relied on their wisdom to make a fortune. However, when it came to Mulan, she was dressed as a nanny, and a nanny who had lost her memory. Mulan helplessly followed Niu Gulu Xinlan into the Fourth Prince's residence. She wanted to regain her memories and find her way home. Who knew that it would slowly develop into a thrilling love story between her and Yinzhen. 4. "Young Phoenix Emperor Murong Chong." Late at night, due to working overtime for many days, the extremely tired animation intern Zheng Jie finally got on a bus that was never punctual. He had just fallen asleep when he was jolted awake. Strangely, the starry summer night had turned into a snowy winter, and the spacious bus that carried him alone had turned into an ancient carriage. Zheng Jie helplessly pulled open the curtains and looked outside. He saw corpses strewn all over the ancient city outside the window, wailing in pain, and flames shooting everywhere. The entire world had changed. Zheng Jie was on the verge of breaking down. Suddenly, he heard someone call out softly,"Phoenix Emperor, don't be afraid!" Zheng Jie turned around and saw a beautiful woman beside him… These works all have good reputations for your reference.
