Author: The Whitest Crow The following is a detailed introduction of these novels: 1."Book of Troubled Times": Ji Cha's new book, many female leads, related to eternal calamity. Holding a sword in the Jianghu, drinking wine, slender waist and light palm. The young man carried a long saber on his shoulder and hung wine on his waist. He strode forward, but the Jianghu in his heart was vaguely difficult to see. Turning a page in the book of troubled times, it would rain for decades in the Jianghu. Suddenly looking back, the world has been split into pieces. 2."Spirit Realm Traveler": -[Continuing-]--Top 3500 likes next time! System, Infinite Style, Dungeon, Strange The newspaper seller's new work was different from the subject matter he had written before. It was a new attempt. (But it was quite similar to what his writer friends wrote.) The main character's brother mysteriously disappeared, and the main character received the card he sent. Then, he could enter the Spirit Realm, complete the dungeon, obtain rewards, and level up himself. At the same time, he would search for the truth of the world through exploration. The setting of this book was not bad. The main character needed to clear the Spirit Realm dungeon and find clues from these strange maps to avoid being hunted down. The main character was set to have hypermnesia, which was a cheat. It allowed him to remember many details of the past, but it was also a double-edged sword that would lead to negative effects. The other character settings were also quite interesting, such as a gentleman boss who spoke in a translator's accent. Although this book contained supernatural elements, the author himself said that this book would not focus on supernatural elements, so it would not be particularly scary. Moreover, the style of selling newspapers was humorous, and the style of the book was relaxed. Moreover, the newspaper seller would also make jokes in supernatural places, so it would not be particularly scary. Overall, the book was excellent so far. There were no logical errors, and the plot and worldview were relatively complete. However, it was still a seedling after all. He wanted to see if the author could write a better architecture. 3."Tang's Table": Although the original ingredients had the original flavor of food, Yun Chu still believed that the most delicious food still needed to be divided, cooked, and handled. The food that was finally served on the table was the food that most suited the stomach of the Tang people. Steaming, braising, stir-frying, stewing... There were many cooking methods in the kitchen. Whether it was Goguryeo, the Turks, Tubo, Tuyuhun, Xue Yantuo, Tiele…or even whales, tigers, sharks, and hungry wolves, the Great Tang was a furnace that could cook them all into peerless delicacies… In addition to Li Zhi, Wu Wei, Zhangsun Wuji, Chu Suiliang, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, and other peerless seasonings, there would always be one thing that you would never forget, regardless of color, fragrance, or taste. Yun Chu hoped that she would definitely have a seat at such a luxurious banquet! Now, the delicious food had been cooked. Yun Chu laid out the napkin, picked up the deer knife, and closed her eyes. She was ready to enjoy an unprecedented feast to satisfy her hungry stomach. 4."King of the Familiar": I'm very surprised to read this book. I haven't been addicted to a novel for a long time. Now, I'm actually experiencing it in this book. Am I going to stay up late again? 5."Fairy, Please Listen to My Explanation": Status: In Progress Tagged: Xianxia, Villain, No Goldfinger, Online IQ, Many Female Lead, Decisive [General content: The protagonist transmigrated into the game "Cangyuan" that he graduated from. However, his character was a small villain in the early stages. He was captured in the beginning, but with his understanding of the plot and wisdom, he saved the day and gradually expanded his advantage.] Under the butterfly effect, the plot had collapsed, the advantage of being a prophet had been lost, and a huge worldview had been opened to the readers. Ranking: 96 [Reason for recommendation: This book is called a dark horse in terms of quality and results. The author is either a god from another website or a platinum boss.] Judging from the content, it had been a long time since it had been so pure and classical. At present, the author had buried a lot of foreshadowing. The plot connection and reversal were very good, and the intelligence of all the characters was on the line. It was very successful in shaping the characters. It only took a few chapters to make the characters three-dimensional (which can be seen from the book friends 'crusade against certain characters in the chapter). Strongly recommended! ! ! 6."National Forensics": It's a really good case solving story. From the first chapter onwards, the plot is especially compact. It feels very immersive when you read it. It's a rare good story. I recommend it to everyone. 7."Wait, Heroine": Work Status: In Series [Introduction: In order to inherit his foster father's will, the male protagonist, Night Terror Hall, went to the palace to search for the peerless martial arts, the Dragon Song Painting. From then on, he, a knife, and a bird entered the chaotic martial world...(I didn't drive, the male protagonist really has a bird)] 1. Reading the author's book is like talking to a wanderer in Jianghu. The description of Jianghu fighting really has a martial arts flavor. Of course, when it's time to be reckless, it's time to be really reckless. Young Master Guan Guan, you know that. 2. It was rare for a female character to have a hint of temptation in today's environment. [Problem with the work: There is also a description of the temple, but it is indeed a little worse than the Jianghu.] 8."Mantang Colorful Scenery" The bizarre cousin's new historical novel, the opening plot was compact and eye-catching. [Author's impression] Level 5 authors were very strong and would soon become gods. 9."Hidden Dead Corner": God, get lost. There's no need to say more. Although he was a rotten dog, it was undeniable that he still had the power of a God in the early stages. Rollie had used a power similar to the Saint Seiya armor at the beginning of the game. She was so scared that she thought that he would write about mecha at the beginning of the game. However, the style of writing was not bad. He returned to the supernatural horror style that he was best at. He was quite good at writing scary and strange things. This book was similar to his Nightmare Summoning. It had a supernatural feeling and the details were not bad.

At the same time, there was a hidden line "The archaeological work of the White Mountain era" to maintain suspense. Secondly, the character creation was naturally not exaggerated. Every character had a unique memory point, and the image would change according to the protagonist's cognition. Thirdly, the leveling rhythm was smooth and reasonable. The protagonist gradually became stronger, and the progression of the plot was also in line with the development logic. Finally, it's style "Beyond Time":"Beyond Time" is a novel that is refreshing.

This book was filled with the wonderful collision between the apocalypse and Xianxia, making people look forward to it.

In the new book of the author, the male protagonist transmigrated to a parallel world after his death. The war more than 200 years ago left only a wasteland here. The Goldfinger had a sanctuary system. The male protagonist could pull players from the original world to play a "100% realistic holographic game" in this wasteland world. Then, it would be the favorite leek harvesting routine. The fourth catastrophe, farming, and the mastermind behind the scenes were all elements that I liked. In addition to the players 'various tricks, I couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. I chased after the update in one breath, but I still couldn't get enough.
