Number of novels: eight ("Jingjue Ancient City", "Longling Mysterious Cave", "Yunnan Worm Valley", "Kunlun Shrine", "Huangpizi Tomb", "South China Sea Return to Ruins" , "Angry Sunny Xiangxi", "Wuxia Coffin Mountain") ***Chapter 239 "The Excellent Ancient City"
"Ghost Blowing the Lamp" Part 1 Volume 1 "The Excellent Ancient City" , can be divided into two parts, the front and back. The first half ends at the underground military fortress at the black wind outlet of Yerengou. It is mainly the construction of a framework and platform, and there are no clear clues related to the main line. 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. "Longling Mysterious Grottoes"
The second volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing Lamp" "Longling Mysterious Grottoes" is actually divided into three parts. The first is the discovery of the Western Zhou Dynasty by fighting in Longling The ghost tomb, the second is to find treasures in Heishui City by touching the golden captain, and the third is to reveal Wang Zhishu in the coffin shop of Shibei 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 Mysterious Cave", which is full of suffocating buttons of the traditional storybook. This is a sensational volume. "Yunnan Worm Valley"
"Yunnan Worm Valley", the third volume of the first part of "Ghost Blowing Lamp", this adventure 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. 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.
"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 West is a monster. Personally, I 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. "Huangpizi Tomb" "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, which are all very touching. Elements of interest. 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. "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 there are many risky professions in traditional Chinese industries. The people most at risk are undoubtedly the people fishing 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 butcher clams. This volume tells their stories. Personally, I think the first three volumes are more exciting, and the subsequent stories are more ordinary, but overall it is a good book. It takes the back-and-forth fight during the Cultural Revolution as the main line and tells the adventure stories of several young people. It is quite touching.
The first book tells about the adventures of the protagonist Hu Bayi and his grandfather, which also pave the way for his subsequent knowledge (the ancient book was passed down to him by his grandfather). Later, when describing his own adventure, he mentions the protagonists such as Fatty and Big Gold Tooth, and interjects the narrative. The story about the big white snake my father encountered, etc., in short, is complex but not chaotic, and relatively organized. I don't want the novels that are available now, which are purely chaotic. But, third child, I’ve been thinking about this book since I was in the third year of junior high school. Why are you reading it now?
