Completed "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp"

One *** eight volumes

"Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" has two parts, totaling eight volumes , in order: "Jingjue Ancient City", "Longling Grottoes", "Yunnan Worm Valley", "Kunlun Shrine", "Huang Pizi Tomb", "South China Sea Return to Ruins", "Nu Qing Xiangxi", "Wuxia Coffin" Mountain".

From February 2006 to the end of February 2008, I wrote it for two full years, about two million words in length. It took a lot of effort during this period, but there were also great gains. Through this book, I have met many friends, some of whom I have met, and some of whom I have never met. It can be said that if you like my book, we should be considered friends. Please allow me to thank you sincerely. It is the greatest joy for me to share the stories I have written with many people. Today, as I finish the entire book, I would like to give a brief review of the entire creative process of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", dedicated to readers who like "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".

I am often asked which volume I am most satisfied with, so I also gave a "director's self-evaluation" when the movie "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp" I borrowed was completed. As an author, it is also very interesting to evaluate your own works.

A complete set of eight volumes of stories. The core elements and themes of each volume are different, and the content they want to express is also different. During the serialization process, I could only write a few thousand words per day. Due to time constraints and personal preferences, I basically never revised the parts I had already written, and there was never a story outline. I still don’t know what an outline is. , for me, I don’t know what unexpected situations will occur in the next chapter. Many of them are improvisations, which is a great pleasure in the creative process.

It’s hard to say which one of these eight volumes is the most satisfying to me. Each volume has chapters and sections that I am very satisfied with; but in my own opinion, each volume is also There are also shortcomings and flaws. If you revise it again, it will be much better, but then you will inevitably lose the ingenuity and lose the fun of improvisation.

The following is a volume-by-volume review in the order of creation, including the characteristics and creation process of each volume, the characters and backgrounds that appear, as well as chapters that I think are satisfactory and have flaws.

"Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is an adventure novel, rooted in the Feng Shui of Yi Xue, and is the meridian running through it. Although the book contains many elements, only the word "adventure" can sum up its essence. It is by no means a simple tomb robbing novel, nor is it a horror, supernatural or old-fashioned mystery and suspense novel. The ancient tombs are just the basis for the adventure in the story. What this book tells is a series of adventure journeys using traditional Chinese craftsmanship and theory.

"Jingjue Ancient City"

The first volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing Lamp" "Jingjue Ancient City" can be divided into two parts, the first half ending at Yerengouhei The underground military fortress in Fengkou is mainly the construction of a framework and platform, and there are no clear clues about its relationship with the main plot. This half is intended to be written in the genre of folklore and country talk. The so-called type of folk tales, I think, are probably the legends of zombies and black donkey hooves in the deep mountains and old forests.

Starting from the archaeological team entering the desert to search for the exquisite ancient city, they touched on distinct geographical and cultural elements, such as the desert of the Western Regions, the Kongque River, the Twin Sacred Mountains, the Thirty-Six Kingdoms, the Loulan Female Corpse, and the Dunhuang Murals. Elements, a mysterious atmosphere came to my face, so in the part of Jingjue Ancient City, I made the mystery the core of the story. In the end, Queen Jingjue did not show up, so she was considered mysterious to the end. This volume involves some elements such as archaeological puzzles.

As the first volume, the biggest flaw now is that some parts are too simple and sloppy, and the logic is relatively loose. I write as I go, without considering how the subsequent story will unfold; I am satisfied. The place where the description and narrative is more real and vivid.

The style that looks very real, rural, and mysterious was what I wanted to express most when I was writing the first volume.

Speaking of "truth", I think of questions that are often asked: Is "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" about a true story? There are so many nouns, terms, geography, and Feng Shui that people who don’t understand can’t write them down. Are these contents real or fictional?

First of all, I want to say that "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is a story, a novel, not documentary literature, nor a memoir. True and false are mixed together. If you want to distinguish between truth and fiction, you can only be specific. You can't tell the difference until you reach a certain noun or a certain plot.

For example, in the story about Yerengou, the location is fictitious, but the underground fortress of the Kwantung Army as the scene actually exists. There are still ruins preserved in Northeast Inner Mongolia and other places. It is said that at that time The Xing'anling fire was caused by the explosion of an ammunition depot buried by the Kwantung Army.

As for nouns and terminology, it is necessary to explain that in "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", tomb robbing is called "inverted bucket", just like the burial objects are called "underworld objects". These special industry terms are indeed true in reality. exists; and calling the corpse in the ancient tomb "Zongzi" is completely my own original fiction, and this has never been said before.

To give another example: The book describes that the gold-touching captain must wear a gold-touching talisman before he can engage in tomb robbing activities. The term "Mojin Xiaowei" has been around since the Three Kingdoms period, but it has not been passed down as a traditional industry. It has only existed for a few decades. All the traditional rules about Mojin Xiaowei include lighting candles in the southeast corner and crowing rooster lanterns. The iron law of whether to destroy or touch gold is all made up by me personally. It is not true. There has never been such a thing as a golden charm in the world, and there is no prototype. I hope readers will understand clearly and not be fooled by my story. Misled.

There are countless similar examples in the book "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". There are historical backgrounds of each ancient tomb and adventure location, the prototypes of various mysterious animals and plants, Feng Shui metaphysics, folk geography, etc. There are truths and lies, and more of a mixture of fiction and reality, and the content will be adjusted according to the needs of the storyline. If you want to explain everything, it will definitely not be explained clearly in three or five days, so I won’t explain it more here.

"Longling Cave"

The second volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing Lamp" "Longling Cave", in fact, the story of this volume is divided into three parts. Ling Doudou discovered the ghost tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the second was to find the treasure of the gold school captain in Heishui City, and the third was to reveal the king's evil skills from the coffin shop in the stone tablet shop. Although there are three stories in one volume, in this volume I mainly wanted to highlight the core element of thriller. Some people may say that "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" is a thriller novel, but actually I think it is not at all, and it has little to do with "horror" on the whole. If we talk about horror, I think horror is just one of the many elements in this book, not the main element. The only volume that is full of suspense is "Longling Cave", which is full of suffocating buttons of the traditional storybook. This is a sensational volume.

When I was writing "Longling Cave", I began to think about the structure of the overall story. In order to connect the first two volumes with the following content, I arranged some large-scale narratives. This is Partridge Whistle Become a disciple, receive a certificate, steal the ancient tomb of Jiang in the Southern Song Dynasty, and then go to Blackwater City to explore with Elder Chen and Father Thomas.

The subtitle of "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" is "The Strange Experience of the Grave Robbers", which means that it is mainly about the gold-finding deeds, but as a hidden line, the stories of other tomb robbers such as Taoist Banshan and Xiling Rikishi It also began to emerge gradually, and it was determined that the clues of the story would revolve around the bottomless ghost cave, so the role of "Longling Cave" is similar to threading a needle. The large-scale narration in this volume is to adjust the thinking, and to test my writing ability in different era backgrounds through the legends of the Republic of China. It can be said that I am moving forward through exploration.

In this volume, I am personally more satisfied with the chapters of Deng Ying, Coffin Yi, Suspended Soul Ladder, and Wild Cat, Rooster Crow. The chapter with major flaws is Diamond Fish. The two parts of the Bone Temple Robbery Cave and the Tongtian Grand Buddhist Temple in Heishui City, Xixia, have been planned to be written to one million words, so the pace of the story has been slowed down. In addition, because it is updated every day at the starting point, in order to increase the number of pirated posts on the Internet Some resistance, starting from this volume, a lot of the words Shengqi are used.

"Insect Valley of Yunnan"

The third volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing Lamp" "Insect Valley of Yunnan", I happened to be watching the World Cup when I wrote the story of this volume, which left a particularly deep impression on me. , is a severe test of energy, physical strength, and perseverance. The volume on the Tomb of King Xian of Yunnan takes exploration as its core. I personally like watching movies, and I used to like "The Abyss" and "Alien" very much.

The so-called adventure is exploration plus adventure. Later I saw the trailer for the remake of "King Kong". There was a scene where the expedition team used a turntable submachine gun to fight against the evil centipedes in the valley. I really liked it. kind of scene. An expedition team with old-fashioned equipment, kayak drifting, the wreckage of a crashed military aircraft, a ghostly Morse signal, a Chicago typewriter, a giant insect that has not died for tens of millions of years, a corpse hole effect that devours everything, and the harsh natural environment Fighting through obstacles in the jungles and fossil caves, Yunnan Worm Valley was launched. It is completely a treasure map-style traditional adventure element, with a strange supernatural and science fiction color added to it. This is a volume that combines old and new adventure elements.

In "Yunnan Worm Valley", the story type has completely shifted to "adventure". There are few characters in this volume, and the main space is used to describe the dangerous terrain and various weird traps. Regarding the human skin map contributed by Chen Xiazi, I had no idea in my mind at the beginning, so I decided to arrange it as it seemed strange. As the writing progressed and the mysteries were revealed one by one, I also felt a little surprised. The earliest designed Tomb of King Xian was an ancient tomb that could only be entered when the sky collapsed. I once imagined that a large passenger plane crashed in front of the gold-finding team, thus knocking away the big men in the ancient tomb. But then I thought about many friends who would fly out in the future, so it might not be a good idea to write this; plus in the ghost In the signal section, a transport aircraft used by the United States (Mi) to aid the Chinese Air Force during the Anti-Japanese War was used, so in the end the Tianbeng was described as a bomber that was destroyed decades ago. In this plot The sense of gravity and destiny is something I myself cannot predict in advance.

The part that I am more satisfied with in this volume is that the creation of the fictional evil technique can finally be justified. I still admire myself very much. In addition, the Calabash Cave, the Tiankeng Deep Pool, and the Huo-style Undead Worm , Ghost Signal and I also feel very satisfied with these paragraphs.

However, this volume is long and has many flaws. The main reason is that the rhythm is not very well controlled. The most dissatisfying thing is that I forgot some clues buried earlier in the writing, which led to the breakaway. Not used.

"Kunlun Temple"

The fourth volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" "Kunlun Temple" is full of mythology. China has a vast territory and rich resources, and different regions have given birth to different cultures and legends. All Chinese myths must be inseparable from Kunlun Mountain. It is the backbone of heaven and earth, the birthplace of the ancestral dragon, the shrine of the Queen Mother of the West, and the lair of the northern monster. Kunlun cannot be called Kunlun without myths and legends. Ancient books record that the true image of the Queen Mother of Kunlun is a monster. I personally imagine it may be a big fish. I once saw the largest freshwater fish in the world in a natural history museum, and it really felt like a dragon.

The plot of this volume involves the legend of King Gesar. The epic of the heroic king who defeated the enemy orb is itself a long rap poem with a strong mythological flavor, so the Kunlun Mountains chapter incorporates many alternative elements close to mythology. The King of Fishes in the Wind-eroded Lake, the Infinite Karma Fire, the Neqiong Divine Ice, the Thunder Mountain of Mahakala, the Crystal Zizai Mountain, the Evil Loch Sea City, and the Gate of Disaster. This adventure is as bizarre as entering a fantasy world. "Kunlun Temple" is like an adventure in the divine world. Although there are many mythological elements, it still maintains consistent principles and tries to be closer to the real world. Of course, there will be no flying into the sky, immortality, or magical spells. A true myth.

Due to scheduling and contract reasons, the first part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" ends after "Kunlun Temple". The final ending is in Beihai Park in Beijing, which is a perfect ending. . The last 234 chapters of Qidian Chinese website have completely collected all the contents, and the physical book is perfect. Of course, this finale only belongs to the first part.

In the first four volumes of the first part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", my personal favorite plot appears in Tibet, but due to space issues, that part was included in The last part of the Yunnan volume of the physical book is about Hu Bayi, who shortly after joining the army, fought against a pack of wolves with Tiebang Lama in an abandoned temple under a moonlit night in Xi (Separation) Zang. In fact, these chapters should be included anyway. Counted in the final volume of Xi (separated) Tibet.

The most dissatisfying part is that the rhythm of this part is not well controlled, resulting in no space to expand when finally entering the Phoenix Palace.

In March 2007, I temporarily decided to write the second part of "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp", which is almost the same as the first part. When I started writing, I basically had no overall idea, but just a general goal, and planned to write the second part. In the second part, two prequels and two sequels were written, and they are independent content compared to the first part.

There are many omissions in the structure of the first part. I hope that while writing the story of the second part, I can also make some additions to the first part. I was not sure at the time, but judging from the final effect, Still quite satisfied.

"Huangpizi Grave"

If I follow my original plan, I will still describe four different key elements in the four volumes of the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". Therefore, I wanted to write a prequel mainly because I wanted to liven up my ideas and words so that I would not lose patience due to too rigid time clues.

"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 unique Jianghu system in the Northeast. Elements that interest 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 among the crowd. 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 bigger flaw is that some interesting things were forgotten to be included, and the part about humans and bears was also handled too hastily.

"Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea"

As a continuation of the first story, in the previous volumes, the descriptions of gold grabbing and fighting made me feel that in traditional Chinese industries, there are There are many risky professions, and the most risky ones are 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 Dan people 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.

"Angry Qing Xiangxi"

In this volume, my working hours are very loose. If I have more time, I will be able to write more leisurely, so in terms of words alone, I think "Nu Qing Xiangxi" is the most exquisite volume among the eight volumes. Because there are more and more restrictions on modern themes, 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.

In addition, this volume has also set several records. First, there are many characters. In the past, I was worried about the control ability and did not dare to write two protagonists and a large number of supporting characters taking turns at the same time. But after writing so much, it is impossible not to make any progress at all. The character transfer and background description in this volume are already handy, and the plot is a good supplement to the first volume, and it also runs through the four volumes of the second volume. , exceeded the original plan, which I am very happy about.

Let’s talk about the geographical background. There are countless stories about Xiangxi that have been written into literary works. However, if you hear about things like witchcraft, driving corpses, and falling into holes, you won’t understand them if you hear them 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 using keenness to 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.

There are three things that I am rather dissatisfied about. One is that Hua Ling and the old foreigner have no role to play and they are suspended from their posts; the other is that the partridge whistle and the six-winged centipede fall into the Wuliang Palace. The description of this section is relatively confusing; Third, I found that the bridge section of the alchemy room is relatively flat.

"Wuxia Coffin Mountain"

As the last volume of the book, "Wuxia Coffin Mountain" has a heavier task. The most important thing is the number of words. According to the contract, Counting the number of words, among the first three volumes of the second volume, the first volume had about 30,000 words less, so they had to be added to the last volume. Therefore, this volume is a very long one, half a book longer, but even though it is In this way, the length of the last volume seems insufficient.

The four copper talismans that serve as the main thread of the book in the plan symbolize the four states of life that exist in heaven and earth in different forms. I would like to draw one talisman from each book, but in that case, at least five will be needed. This book has to simplify some plots.

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.

As the main clue throughout the whole article - "Guanshan Zhifu", it is a formula similar to a folk song, including "Guanshan Digging Record", they were originally from another work of mine The original content was included in this book because the writing plan changed in 2007 and was temporarily changed to the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". The other book was canceled and will not appear in any way in the future.

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 refer to. 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.

The flaw is that there is too much content to be shown in the last volume and it is too concentrated. It is inevitable that some places are not developed in depth and appear to be hasty. The ending cannot be said to be satisfactory. After all, Duo Ling finally died.

Different from my initial attitude of blindly liking incredible events, for this super long work that took two years to write, plain and simple is the truth. 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 you cannot believe in Feng Shui. The concept of "the unity of heaven and man" is in the heart but not in the ground; finally, "the extreme of things must reverse itself." "The three chapters of this chapter explain how the Captain Touching Gold protects himself and survives.
