Chapter 15 postscript

"Ma Ai hissed and knelt on the ground with both front legs, I was thrown heavily to the ground, and the short armor was filled with sand. "The Republican Army broke through Wuyun City, the capital of the Empire, two days ago. We, the guards who claim to be the best in the world, were completely defeated and scattered. I originally escaped with four people from the same team of the guards. However, in the raging fire in Wuyun City, we ran into the vanguard of the Republican Army, and the corporal leader and Xiao Liu were killed on the spot. We were lucky enough to escape, and after we escaped into the desert, Aliwei, Shen and I The three of Yang met the bandits, and the three of them were dispersed again. Although I escaped, I was wounded in seven or eight places, and even the horse couldn't hold on.

"I struggled to get up. This horse was 'Flying Feather', the sixth-ranked horse in the Guards, but at this moment it was just lying on the ground, twitching from time to time, and blood came out from the wound on its neck , stained with sand, and made a pile of paste. I patted it, but it just snorted, but couldn't get up. "Without my horse, I have no chance of survival in this desert. But I didn't seem to think about it at all. I just drew out my knife and murmured: 'Fei Yu, I'm sorry.' Yang, slashed at Feiyu's leg." More than ten years ago, I wrote such a story called "The Famous Sword" on paper, and the above is the beginning of the whole story.At that time, I read a lot of novels such as Scott's "Ivanhoe" and "The Puritans", and I was very interested in this kind of killing war when the kingdom was replaced. Political corruption finally caused a revolution, and the rebel army rose up to overthrow the monarchy.A soldier of the Imperial Guard, having been scattered, fled across the desert to one of the imperial domains.Under this background, I wrote on and off for six or seven years, and after completing more than 200,000 words, I was no longer in the mood to write, and finally died without a problem.

Then, start surfing the Internet.Scribbling on the computer is obviously more enjoyable than writing on paper, because if you are not satisfied, you can immediately overturn it and start over, delete it cleanly, and modify it easily without making it mottled.So I wanted to write a long story, and then I remembered this half-written story.At first I wanted to type that story in and make some revisions at any time, but after searching, I found that one of the three notebooks I wrote at that time was lost because of moving. Looking at the remaining two fish that slipped through the net, the writing is rough and the plot is ridiculous, leaving only the heart of denial.Instead of tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall to modify, it is better to use this background to start a new one.At that time, it was written from the fall of the empire, so now it is written from the beginning of the Republican Army to the fall of the empire.So, from the beginning of 2001, I started the long march of "Tian Xing Jian". At first, I just wanted to write a few hundred or two hundred thousand and then stopped. I didn't expect to write one after another. More than one million characters, which is several times longer than the previous paper manuscript.

Many people have probably dreamed of literature. Although these popular stories are not really literature, they are just treasured by themselves. Since they cannot be hidden in famous mountains, they should be made public.Thank you readers for your compliments, saying that it is still readable, and it is worthy of the 200,000 to 300,000 words that have been invalidated.Because the background set at that time was the feudal civilization that was re-developed after the destruction of human civilization, I thought this setting was very fresh and interesting. After all, it is already ten years later, I have read a lot of books, and the impetuous arrogance of my youth has been reduced a lot, so I try to remove these opportunistic settings as much as possible, and the writing also deliberately pursues plainness and does not do too much. lyrical.It may be helpless to say that some friends with noble tastes are not aware of it and say it is rough and simple.The eldest son of my family has the most wonderful article "Liu Jingting Storytelling". He said that Liu Mazi said that when Wu Song went to the store to buy wine, there was no one in the store. "Coloring in leisure is as subtle as this." The storytelling department and storytelling come down in one continuous line, roughly the same.

"Tian Xing Jian" has entered the final 300,000 characters, and the ending will basically be written according to the period of the French Revolution.The period of the French Revolution was an era of turbulent and rapid development. The sky is dead and the sky is standing.At the age of ninety-three, the world is blessed.Almost all the old moral norms were overthrown, and there are many literary works reflecting this period, among which the works of the great French Confucianist Xiao Ershi are the most outstanding ones.Naturally, I dare not make presumptuous comparisons to myself, but I just want to write something dignified in the great era, which is slightly different from ordinary popular literature, and it can also be regarded as a commemoration of the literary dream that has long been shattered. Muttered like Zhouzi in Mr. Zongzi's pen: "Don't say that your husband is an idiot, there are even more idiots like your husband."
