After all, the scenery of the county town is not comparable to that of the small Qingshui City.
As far as cultivators are concerned, not only are they several levels behind at the highest level, but even on this "basic" level, there is no comparison at all.
However, when Xu Guangling thought that the spiritual energy index here was a whole decimal level higher than that in Qingshui City, he felt that all this was perfectly normal.
Even if the average cultivator cannot clearly sense the amount of spiritual energy, after a long time, even if the cultivators still don't know, time will still give the answer.
After watching the performance, Xu Tonghui and Xu Guangling, led by the old man surnamed Miao, came to Hua Ben Pavilion.
It's similar to a small library or a painting studio in previous lives.
"Guangling kid, do you want to read it?" The old man surnamed Miao pointed to the rows of storybooks and said to Xu Guangling.
Xu Guangling really wanted to see it.
So on this day, I visited some places in Juxing Building like a quick tour. When I came back in the evening, Xu Tonghui carried a large wooden box of storybooks.
But it was still until after breakfast the next day that Xu Guangling lay on the rocking chair, basking in the sun while opening these story books.
To put it bluntly, it is a narrative (story) novel about the past life.
In previous lives, there were politics, economy, and culture. If culture is a major subject that can be paralleled with politics and economy, then entertainment under culture is really just a subsidiary of these three.
Golden Age, Silver Age, Iron Age.
Some people also divide the eras in this way.
It is reflected in entertainment or popular story novels, whether it is a group character story (multiple protagonists) or a single character story (single protagonist)
golden age.
The protagonist does not have a different origin.
This is an era where heroes emerge out of recklessness. Everything is brand new. As long as you have the will to make a breakthrough, everything will be fine.
Like the cowboys in early American movies.
An ordinary background, Ling Yun's ambition, passion, and boldness, coupled with struggle and dreams, these elements form the core of the story of the Golden Age.
Silver Age.
If society is compared to a flat map, then by this time, the slightly larger and better resource points on the map have already been occupied by people, leaving only some small ones still in contention.
This is also an opportunity for the protagonist.
But the difficulty has become greater, because the competitors are no longer all from ordinary backgrounds, there will be many descendants of the heroes of the golden age.
As a result, the requirements for the protagonist have also increased.
Reckless is no longer suitable for this era.
The protagonist can come from a rough background, but as he progresses, he must develop relationships with big shots, such as the big shot's daughter, the big shot's wife, etc., or the big shot himself.
Otherwise, the story will not be able to move forward as it goes along.
So, why does the protagonist have a relationship with these people?
Simply relying on charm?
You can write it this way, but it's not very convincing.
Rely on extraordinary wisdom or outstanding strength.
The further back in time from the Silver Age, the higher the level of "excellence" and "excellence" required, to the point where it is best to be unique in the world.
At this time, there is still struggle.
But most of the time they only talk about struggle and not about dreams.
The struggle itself is the dream.
In the golden age, we talked about the feelings of family and country, and the grand plan of the world. The self is the world, and the struggle of the self is the change of the "big picture".
In the Silver Age, it was only as good as oneself but not as good as the world. At most, it was only a big change in one's own field. This was already the highest level.
The Iron Age.
On the map, even the small resource points are already occupied.
The element of "struggle" no longer arouses widespread response because it is already a bit out of date.
The big men in the golden age and the middle-aged men in the silver age began to transform into little men in the iron age, "firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy, vinegar, tea, calligraphy, painting, music, chess, poetry, and wine."
At this time, the rude man and the powerful go-getter began to be slowly replaced by the exquisite handsome guy.
Treat people with "color".
Men begin to develop from "yang" to "yin" and become comfortable with it, and then push their own "yang" to women.
This is the radiation of the Golden Age, Silver Age, and Iron Age to popular entertainment.
To put it bluntly, this is called "general trend".
Those who go against the trend will decline and cannot make any big waves.
Xu Guangling flipped through the storybook leisurely.
Xu Tonghui was lying on another armchair, turning over too. He was watching with great concentration. When he saw the excitement, he would pat his thigh from time to time.
There are a total of fourteen sets of storybooks in the box, some are long and some are short.
The protagonist's origin includes eight sects and five aristocratic families. There is only one casual cultivator. In the middle of the story, another identity of this casual cultivator is revealed. It turns out that he is the illegitimate son of a big family.
In the story, top-grade families, middle-grade families, large sects, and small sects were mentioned, but the protagonist’s ultimate achievement...
Of the five people who came from aristocratic families, three succeeded in promoting their families, one joined a large sect, and one was accepted as a disciple by a heaven-level warrior. At the end of the story, the heaven-level warrior said to this disciple: "You can also be
Heavenly level!"
The other protagonists are generally similar.
Xu Guangling turned over the pages very quickly, while Xu Tonghui read slowly.
Xu Guangling flipped through all fourteen sets. He just saw a small node in the second set. After patting his thigh again, he said to Xu Guangling in high spirits: "Young Master, it is better to be a county or a city. Qingshui City
There is no such thing!”
"Does it look good?" Xu Guangling asked.
"It's beautiful!" When Xu Tonghui replied, his eyes were still wandering from the storybook.
After saying this, he finally looked away slightly and asked Xu Guangling: "Master, don't you like it?"
"It's okay, it's okay."
These fourteen sets of storybooks were enough for Xu Guangling to understand a lot about the world and the ecology of this region.
Looking at the past from the perspective of a great sect and a great master, and analyzing these scripts piece by piece, what we can see is the various aspects of the practice world in this world, from small to large, from low to high.
Although it is only a glimpse of the leopard, it is generally correct to look at it from multiple points.
Fortunately, the situation is not too bad.
It is not considered a golden age, but it is not considered a black iron age, but it is roughly in the middle and lower reaches of the silver age.
This can provide some reference for his future layout and behavior.
At this moment, we can borrow this script, the Star-Gathering Tower, the Sihai Sect, and other aristocratic sects to make a small layout in Annan County.
"Uncle Xu, I will also write a storybook when I have time. Then you can hand it over to Juxing Tower and see if they want it." Xu Guangling said.
After hearing this, Xu Tonghui was inexplicably surprised: "Master, can you still do this?"
"I'm not very good at it. I just wrote it for fun. I have nothing to do. I can't go shopping every day." Xu Guangling said.
This is true, Xu Tonghui nodded, and then suddenly remembered something and asked: "Master, when will we go to Dongshan again?"
"I won't go for now. There's nothing wrong if I go. Let's talk about it later when you can re-condensate your Qi and reach the level of Tongmai by using the set of fists I taught you."
Three days later, Xu Guangling handed a small stack of paper to Xu Tonghui.
Xu Tonghui looked down and saw a few large characters written on the top paper.
