How good is the novel "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp"? Can you briefly tell me about it?

"Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" is an online novel from mainland China. The author has sung it all over the world. Its main content is tomb robbing and treasure hunting. It is an extremely classic suspense tomb robbing novel. This novel has quickly become a book Top of the sales charts. After that, the author continued to write the second part, which involves Chen Xiazi and Partridge Whistle’s tomb robbing past.

The first volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing Lamp" "Jingjue Ancient City", of course, Jingjue Ancient City can be divided into front and back parts. The first half ends at the underground military fortress at the Black Wind Pass of Yerengou. The previous parts are mainly To build a framework platform, there are no clear clues about the relationship with the main plot. This half is mainly written as folklore, country talk type. The so-called folk story type, I personally feel that it is probably like zombies and black donkey hooves. There are legends in the deep mountains and old forests; starting from the archaeological team entering the desert to find the exquisite ancient city, it involves distinct geographical elements. From the very beginning, I hope to combine it with the local culture, so these elements are what I really want to integrate. The desert of the Western Regions , Peacock River, Twin Sacred Mountains, Thirty-six Kingdoms, Loulan Female Corpse, Dunhuang Murals, when mentioning these elements, a mysterious atmosphere comes to my face, so in this part of Jingjue Ancient City, I used mystery as the core of the story. , Queen Jingjue did not show up in the end. She is considered mysterious to the end. This volume involves some elements such as archeology and mystery solving.

The second volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" "Longling Mysterious Cave" is actually divided into three parts. The first is the discovery of the ghost tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty in Longling, and the second is the touching of the Golden School. Treasure hunting in Heishui City, and the third is the surface of the coffin shop in Shibei shop. Although there are three stories in one volume, in this volume, I mainly want to highlight the core element of horror and thriller. Maybe some people say that ghosts blowing out lanterns are In fact, I think horror novels are completely incorrect. They have little to do with horror novels as a whole. There seems to have never been a novel that truly flaunts horror in the Chinese book market. This is a limitation of the general environment and system. When it comes to horror, , I think the horror color is only one of the many elements in this book, not the main element. The only volume with more horror elements is the Longling Mystery Cave. It is as suffocating as a traditional Chinese novel. This is a sensational volume.

The third volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" "Yunnan Worm Valley", I happened to be watching the World Cup when I wrote the story of this volume. I was particularly impressed. It is a severe test of energy, physical strength and perseverance. Yunnan presents The Tomb of Kings volume has adventure elements as its core, because I personally like watching movies. I used to like "The Abyss" and "Alien" very much. The so-called adventure is exploration + adventure. Later I saw the trailer of the remake of King Kong. There is a section where the expedition team uses a turntable submachine gun to fight fiercely with centipedes in the valley. I like this scene. The expedition team with old-fashioned equipment, kayak rafting, the wreckage of the crashed Air Force plane, the Chicago typewriter, in the jungle and harsh natural environment After overcoming obstacles in the fossil cave, Yunnan Worm Valley was launched. It has traditional treasure map-style adventure elements, with some pseudo-supernatural and science fiction colors added to it. This is a volume that combines old and new adventure elements.

The fourth volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" "Kunlun Temple", China is a vast country with rich resources, and different regions breed different cultures and legends. All Chinese myths must be inseparable from Kunlun Mountain, which is the link between heaven and earth. The backbone, the birthplace of the ancestral dragon, the palace of the Queen Mother of the West, and the lair of the northern demons. Kunlun cannot be called Kunlun without myths and legends. In addition, the final plot involves the legend of King Gesar, the hero who defeated the enemy orb. The Great King's Epic is itself a long rap poem with a strong mythological color, so the Kunlun Mountains chapter incorporates many alternative elements that are close to mythical color, such as the King of Fishes in the Wind-eroded Lake, the Infinite Karma Fire, and the Naiqiong Shenbing. , Mahakala's Thunder Mountain, Crystal Zizai Mountain, Evil Luohai City, and the Gate of Disaster make this adventure as bizarre as entering the fantasy world. Kunlun Temple is like an adventure in the divine world. Although there are many mythological elements, it is still We have maintained consistent principles and tried our best to get closer to the real world. Of course, there will be no real myths like flying into the sky and entering the earth, immortality, and magical spells.

The first volume of the second part of "Ghost Blowing Lamp" "Huangpizi Tomb" is a volume with a very strong historical background. The core elements are various strange legends about weasels, the tombs and coffins of non-human creatures, and the Northeast The unique Jianghu system in the region is an element that interests me very much.

However, due to the special background of the era, many words and content are inevitably restricted. Unlike the 1980s when the mind was active, the protagonists in this period are not yet mature, but their enthusiasm is unstoppable by any difficulty.

I once visited the sites of the Japanese invasion of China in Hailar and Dalian, including crematoriums, prisons, European-style hospitals and research institutes and other buildings. I was deeply impressed by them, so I told the story about them. The background is set in it. In this volume, what I feel is more satisfying is the description of Huang Pizi's mind-reading and incineration, as well as the strange incident of Lao Yangpi being hit by thunder and fire after his death. It is very heavy. In terms of physical objects alone, I thought the section about the strange soup was very bizarre and very real.

The second volume of Ghost Blowing Lamp Part 2 "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" is a continuation of the story in the first volume. In the previous volumes, the descriptions of gold grabbing and fighting made me feel that in traditional Chinese industries, There are many very risky professions, and the most risky ones are undoubtedly those who fish for pearls in the sea. The prototype of the Dan people who fished for pearls in the South China Sea came from the Beihai area of ​​Guangxi. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Longhu and Ta families went to the water to fish for pearls and slaughter clams, but few people seemed to write their stories.

So in this volume, pearl fishing in the sea and the legends of this industry are key elements. Some people believe that the splendid Mayan culture was built by China's ancestors who crossed the sea during the Western Zhou Dynasty, because the two have many similarities, and the myth of shooting the sun is a very important part of Chinese civilization.

I once wanted to describe the divine arrow on the bottom of the sea as a real giant weapon. Lost in the sea of ​​chaos in Guixu, Captain Mojin and the Danmen finally activated the divine arrow that shocked Baishi. The arrow shot through the sea above the head and escaped, but when I wrote it later, I forgot about this idea, but escaping with the help of the Dragon Soldier, a real wonder on the sea, was also a very thrilling adventure.

I am not fictitious about using lime-filled watermelons to kill evil fish in the water and relying on sky fish to navigate the boundless sea. It did exist in southern China before. What I am more satisfied with in this volume is the description of the black market on the island. Some of the scenes about shipwrecks are also good, such as the jump of the universe, etc.; the one I am most dissatisfied with is the corpse of the pirate in the bottom of the sea willow. This section is rough and there should be a lot of room for improvement. Things in the Pearl Sea should also be expanded and written, but the length and word count of each volume are also limitations that are difficult to overcome. The plot and content cannot be more or less. Without an overall outline, it is difficult to control. That’s probably where the amateur and professional levels lie.

The third volume of the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" "Angry Sunny Xiangxi" has more and more restrictions on modern themes, so I decided to rewind the prequel to the Republic of China period and dig deeper.

In the past, I used to make up the three major systems of finding gold from a hillock, moving a mountain, and unloading a ridge at random. As the storyline continued to unfold, I gradually outlined the origins and origins of these industries. Anecdotes, legends, and techniques. Because the previous books focused on tomb robbing based on Feng Shui, many people, even those who follow the trend and write so-called tomb robbing novels, only know how to look for Feng Shui to find dragon veins, but they don’t know that there are many weird ways of robbing tombs among the people. .

So in this volume, tomb robbing methods other than Wangzijue are taken as the core. I think that the legendary stories of the Republic of China must firstly have the sense of storytelling, and secondly, have thieves-like characters, plus various slang cuts, and be full of the color of historical folk tales, in order to be interesting. I used to write a section about Blackwater City in a tentative way, and I didn’t dare to write in a big way. But with my previous experience, I felt comfortable writing it, and I compiled a new set of conceptual code words, which is the Book of Mountains, including Changsheng Mountain. and Moon Gate systems are completely fictitious.

Let’s talk about the geographical background. There are so many stories about Xiangxi that have been written into literary works, but things like witchcraft, driving corpses, and falling into holes, etc., you won’t understand it if you hear it too much. No matter how new the idea is, I personally don't like it, so in "Angry Qing Xiangxi", I wrote various legends about Pingshan in order to distinguish them from those clichéd stories.

And in this volume, some brand-new instruments appear, such as the centipede hanging mountain ladder and the cave armor; another example is the technique of listening to the wind and thunder used by Blind Man Chen, and the technique of listening to the wind and thunder with keenness. The sense of smell, smell of soil, and identification of hidden treasures are all popular tomb robbing methods among the people. It can be regarded as a play on several major tomb robbing systems invented by me. I have made a good summary. This is the most satisfying part. There are two other scenes that I personally feel are better written. One is the battle between the chickens and the tomb centipede, and the other is the group of bandits from Xieling who mistakenly entered the mechanism city activated by Mercury.

The fourth volume of the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" "Wuxia Coffin Mountain"

As the last volume of the book, "Wuxia Coffin Mountain" has a relatively heavy task. The four copper talismans that were planned as the main thread of the book symbolized the four states of life that exist in different forms between heaven and earth. I wanted to introduce one talisman for each book, but in that case, at least five volumes would be needed, so some plots had to be simplified.

In addition, we also plan to explain in this volume the real reason why the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" became a broken book, as well as the story of the previous owner of the golden talisman. The whole book "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" starts from the remaining volume of "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" and ends with the past when "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" was destroyed. In addition to the content of the Dixian Village adventure, the last volume also contains These episodes are also included.

In addition, this volume also explains why there are only three ancient talismans left and the history of the destruction of the Faqiu Seal in the Ming Dynasty. The story takes place near the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. The background is the incredible Coffin Mountain, and the plot has a huge twist.

The Three Gorges of the Yangtze River is more than 700 miles long, with countless mountain peaks connected to both sides. It has been an area where the mysterious Bashu culture and the Wu-Chu culture met since ancient times. There are countless myths and folklores, many of which are Some projections of ancient history; military books and swords, thousand-year-old plank roads, coffins hanging on cliffs... have left countless room for imagination for future generations.

There are three places in this volume that I am most satisfied with. One is the Shadowless Immortal Bridge built by golden swifts; the other is the magic brush for viewing mountains, which paints the ground as a door; the third is the ghost sound of the ancient tomb of King Wuyang Refers to confusion. In addition, the legend about the black pig opening the river and the origin of the Coffin Mountain Bone Stealing Map can be regarded as a stroke of genius. In the fictional storyline, many well-known legends are incorporated, such as the meeting of magpies on the Tianhe River, Ma Liang's magical pen, and the ancient painting "Thieves Robbery". These legends, whether true or false, are all in "Wuxia Coffin" "Mountain" is deconstructed from a new angle.

In the last six chapters, I mainly want to elaborate on the concept of the whole book "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". The three chapters of "Ghost Hat" mean that we should not be superstitious about Feng Shui, and the concept of "the unity of heaven and man" should be in mind. But not in the ground; the last three chapters of "Things must turn against each other" explain the way for the captain to protect himself and survive.

Finally, let me talk about my work "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" in two eight volumes, starting from "Jingjue Ancient City" and ending with "Wuxia Coffin Mountain". According to my idea, I can write eight more books, but , the new plan has been matured, and I can’t wait, so I have no further plans to write "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". This book ends here.
