My monastic life. Fiction
My monastic life.

Time is the most redundant thing for someone like me who practices the Dao. Recently, I've been so bored that I've been aimlessly surfing the internet, and I came across an article called "After, Our Generation!" After reading it, I was astonished. In fact, I too belong to the "after" generation. However, I am a true practitioner of the Dao. When I was in primary school, I had no idea what money was. When I was in university, I had already achieved some progress in my spiritual journey, and money was something external to me. Occasionally, I would earn some money and donate it to the primary school in my hometown. After graduating from university, while my classmates struggled to find a job that would keep them from starving, I was leisurely enjoying nature, feeling so content. When property prices in the city skyrocketed, I lived in the heavens. While those around me had no cars, no houses, and struggled to find a spouse, I was hiding and living a carefree life, with many understanding women wanting to marry me... Sigh... I can't help but sigh. We are all people of the same era, yet why is life so different for each of us? Reflecting on it, practicing the Dao is still the best way to live.

The Chronicles of Dragons and Snakes. Fiction
The Chronicles of Dragons and Snakes.

Originally, "Dragon and Snake" had not yet concluded, so there shouldn't have been a new book. But because of the contract, it had to be started. The new book is a xianxia genre, and I have been preparing for it for a long time. It should be a refreshing change for everyone. Recently, "Dragon and Snake" has been updating at an unbelievably slow pace, to the point where I feel embarrassed to mention it. However, the new book has a large amount of draft material, so this situation won't happen again. "Yang Shen," the new book, also breaks the embarrassing situation of not having drafts like "Buddha's Origin," "Black Mountain," and "Dragon and Snake." As the new book begins, "Dragon and Snake" will also hasten its conclusion, although there are still a few plot points to be written. "Dragon and Snake" has consumed too much of my effort, and although it is not finished yet, I still have a feeling of exhaustion. I only hope that after "Dragon and Snake" is completed, it will hold a prominent position when people mention martial arts novels on the Qidian website. When many years have passed, if people want to read martial arts novels of this genre, they will immediately think of "Dragon and Snake." "Yang Shen," the new book, will be available after midnight tonight. I hope everyone can support it. As for the update speed of the new book, I dare not guarantee that it will be a burst, but as someone with draft material for the first time, I am hopeful and ready to fight against some fast-paced authors.
