I want to ride on the Chaxing Han——Summary and remarks of the World Honored One

This novel is coming to an end.

The World Honored One is a very important volume. In the history of the book, the Middle Ages can be regarded as a connecting era. The World Honored One is an unavoidable legend in the Middle Ages.

As far as the structure of the entire novel is concerned, "The World Honored One" also plays a key role in tying up all the previous branches and continuing the ending. It is like the neck of an hourglass.

After thinking about it, a more appropriate metaphor should be "fighting backwards", because it is not in the middle section, but in the end section.

I have always had a "phobia of lack of firepower", which manifests itself in the fact that before I wrap up the clues and fill in the holes, I always feel that I am not prepared enough, whether there is not enough foreshadowing, whether I am not emotionally enough, whether I am not prepared enough, or even whether my state is not enough.

…

I always feel that I have to lay the groundwork and "wait a little longer."

This "wait a little longer" and "wait until when" are often the source of anxiety in reading.

I always have this kind of self-comfort - I have to do this. For the sake of a better overall story, I should wait until the most perfect moment. In the process of setting up and laying out the thread, sometimes it is unavoidable that it is not exciting enough.

The reading experience is for the ultimate sacrifice. (Maybe I still think so)

But when I ranked first in the third list last year, I was thinking again——

This is the number one work on the list.

If we use the first standard to require it, where is the word "enough"?

Even if it is "enough", it should be "enough" towards a higher and better place, rather than saying that it is enough.

If readers have given the author unlimited support, can the author produce writing worthy of this support?

It's more than "Everyone has become who I am today", more than "The White Jade Capital in the Sky".

Even better, even better.

I want to take into account everything and the overall story, but also take into account the reading experience. I want to see if the process of foreshadowing can be more exciting, and the process of burying the thread can also be a part of the excitement.

It was in this mood that the volume "The World Honored One" was born.

This is my greater writing ambition.

Originally, I was thinking about this in the volume of Hua Zhangtianqiu.

Including Zhuge Yixian, Chu Liezong Xiong Ji, including Huang Weizhen, these most exciting romances in Chu, their big scenes were deliberately left to be written later.

If there are readers who followed the reading at that time and happened to have read the complexity of the current game of "Guan Lan Tian Zi San", they should be able to understand that my mental and physical state at that time was completely insufficient to support such writing.

An author's writing ability is not only his writing skills and writing time, but also the effort he puts into it, and has a huge relationship with his state.

Especially for a writer like me who needs emotions more.

There have been ups and downs in the long-term continuous serialization process.

Fortunately, after searching for "Chao Wen Dao", I once again believed that I could achieve this step, so I started the World Honored One.

Back to the writing of this volume.

The title of the volume is "The World-Honored One", but in fact the whole article is about asking——

What is the World Honored One?

In fact, the whole article is about how Jiang Wang got close to the World Honored One!

He has been severely beaten by reality and has a profound understanding that "young people must know how to advance and retreat." He has long adhered to the principle of staying within the sword.

He would sometimes take a look outside the sword circle and give it a try, but most of the time he knew... "If you cross the sword, you will die." Too many people have told him this.

At a level like Juepin, he no longer has many external threats. He can implement his own will and his own principles, and start to do something more or less throughout the entire world.

This is "Cry under my sword".

It is "Justice cannot only be in the human heart."

It is Chao Wen Dao Heavenly Palace.

The preface of "The World Honored One" is "free, blazing, dignified, famous, noble, and auspicious."

I believe many attentive readers have discovered that nineteen chapters after each preface is the next preface.

The first keyword I wrote was "name".

According to the Six Meanings of Bhagavan -

The meaning of the name: The Tathagata has perfected all the extraordinary merits and virtues, and is heard and known by everyone in the world in the ten directions, so it is called the name.

Therefore, I wrote about the knowledge of all realms, and the heavens spread his name.

The second word I wrote is "blazing".

The meaning of "blazing" is: the Tathagata's fierce fire of wisdom reaches out to no end, so it is called "blazing".

So I wrote about how Jiang Wang's wisdom and courage burned on the river viewing platform, and finally became as blazing as a flame.

The third word I wrote is "Duan Yan",

The meaning of Duanyan: The Tathagata's thirty-two characteristics are solemn and wonderful, so it is called Duanyan.

It was a solemn matter for the Emperor of Chu to appoint a prince.

Purifying rituals and becoming a Buddha are the thirty-two characteristics.

Jiang Wang has six aspects, and the Heavenly Palace preaches. The sword masters Wanxiang, and the Heavenly Palace attains the Dao.

Different paths lead to the same destination, both are strict.

The fourth word is "noble".

The meaning of nobility: The Tathagata was born in the royal palace from the Tusita heaven. After he became a monk, he ascended to the position of the ultimate fruit and facilitated the benefit of all sentient beings. Therefore, it is called nobility.

I wrote about Ji Fengzhou, who was the most noble in status, about Bolu who died for his ideals, and about Gu Shiyi who came for righteousness.

I think what is noble is in the eyes of the benevolent and the wise.

Just as Jiang Wang said at the end, the dignity of the World-Honored One lies in "convenience for the benefit of all sentient beings."

Of course, this is just what he saw.

The fifth word I wrote is "comfort".

The meaning of freedom is: The Tathagata will never be bound by troubles. Therefore, it is called freedom.

My plan is for Ye Xiaohua to die in this chapter, take revenge, and feel at ease forever.

The sixth word I wrote is "auspicious".

Auspicious meaning: Since the Tathagata possesses wonderful virtues, all the world will praise those who make offerings.

Here I write about God’s will like a knife, and about the good and bad luck of the bones.

At the same time, the word auspiciousness also refers to Wang Changji and Wang Changxiang.

And Wang Changji and Wang Changxiang are the unlucky signs of white bones.

The chapter "Auspiciousness" is already Chapter 96. According to the outline of the volume when I opened it, I should have ended this volume at Chapter 115. Taking into account the difficulty of ending the volume and tying up all the threads,

Or it can be concluded in Chapter 134. The final name is "World Honored One".

The title of this chapter is also an answer to the process of walking all the way to the World Honored One.

But halfway through the writing process of this volume, about the time when I was "flying to the stars", I suddenly had other ideas.

I decided to bring the unknown person who was going to be killed later here to be killed, and combined it with the existing knot scroll. The big plot of [Transcendence Urn] broke out in advance.

Part of the reason why I chose this is because I want to finish the novel as soon as possible. These are all pitfalls that readers must fill in. If you fill in one early, you can end it earlier. Of course, the more important reason is because I think this is a good influence on the structure of the entire novel.

A better choice.

But this leads to a problem - there are two consecutive big plots at the end. They need to be connected, influence each other, and reconnect. For writing, the difficulty is not just one plus one.

I believe many readers have also felt how complicated the game "Guan Lan Tian Zi San" is.

When I wrote about the death of the unknown person, some readers were asking - "Isn't this the end of the book?"

Normally, I should finish a plot of this level, and then rest exhausted...

But I will continue here.

Because the original conclusion has not been written yet.

If you make a mind map of "Guanlan Tian Zi San" when you read it back, how each character who appears in it, including the substitute, and the threads they involve are intertwined and how they unfold, I believe

It will be more intuitive.

But the text is two-dimensional, and it is tiled one sentence at a time and cannot be presented at the same time. It has to write these out bit by bit, try to make the readers see it clearly, and try to make it look as good as possible. It is not as good as drawing a three-dimensional diagram.

Simple.

There is also a very serious problem that will affect readers’ reading experience——

After two consecutive transcendence games, the protagonist was unable to shine! The protagonist was marginalized. And it was continuous and long-term marginalization!

Sometimes it’s such a dilemma——

If the protagonist wants to grasp the key to the transcendence game, the overall structure will collapse. If he wants to properly fill in these two pitfalls, the protagonist can only play the part.
To be continued...
