It has been 780 days since the book "Xiaoge Lao" was opened on December 10, 2019 to the completion of today on January 29, 2022.

I was less than 38 when I opened the book, and I was over forty years old. It was really too long, and it was time to end.

Of course, many readers will feel that they are still unsatisfied. This is something that cannot be avoided in this kind of story, because we are deducing an era and imagining what kind of world our nation will live in if we do something right.

In this case, it is not a story that begins with a climax and ends. It is a fantasy history that continues to move forward through many events in all aspects.

So one wave will inevitably occur after another, one problem is solved, and another problem appears again... or even one problem is only temporarily solved, and it will cause trouble again in the future. You cannot find a perfect ending moment.

When you think you can take a breath, there will always be a bunch of problems. This is the life of adults and the way history should be.

Then I can only choose a relatively appropriate time point to draw a stop for this story. I always think it is very appropriate to enjoy the maple leaves on Mount Fuji and let Qi Jiguang say that.

Because at this time, the main struggle in the article was over. The achievements in the introduction were basically achieved (Monkey King Ricci was in the extra chapter), and the new struggle was only brewing, and under Zhao Hao's prestige at the peak of his life, it was not enough to become a big trouble.

I have thought about it before, ending with the official founding of the country, but there are too many complaints like this, and the style will be lowered.

Actually, I think this book is very complete, and all the questions are answered, but some of them are too clear. You know, it is better to taste it and taste it.

For example, the imperial system must be abolished at present. But will it be restored in the future? If the British king wants to restore it, he has to wait until Cromwell dies. If he wants to restore it, he will have to wait until Zhao Hao dies. So it will happen at least decades later.

As for Wanli's life or death? I think it's hard to live. Because political struggles are not about treating guests to dinner, because letting the people cut off an emperor's head is of great benefit to the anti-imperialist. Because in the Longsha Prophecy, eight hundred earthly immortals still have to kill the dragon to prove the truth.

But will Zhao Hao be extra merciful and ask him to go to Mr. Xu to undergo renovation? This is quite immature, but it is the ending I hope to see.

Because after all, he is a fat man who is as selfish as you and me, who has no overall view. He is just put in an inappropriate position. If we let him do it for him, maybe he will kneel down. So the biggest problem is that the family and the father and son inherit the power (in fact, power is not only public power).

So this question is completely different from one's opinion and no one can convince anyone. I think it's ugly no matter how you write it. Why not put the guillotine there and let him be a fat man who is about to die.

This is just an example. In short, there are all kinds of problems that have no end at all. Of course, it will end if you continue to write, but it will be done in a 404 way.

So why not draw a stop at the most wonderful moments.

Of course, the story in the book continues. If you want to see who will follow up, you can leave a message later. As long as the TV station lets you go on a break after the New Year, I will write a few extras for the readers.

That's it.

I really felt exhausted, especially in the last few months, which was completely reversed day and night.

I am really tiring to write this kind of book. I can blind me by looking up information every day and reading reference books. Yes, Mr. Zhao’s eye disease is my eye disease, I also have back pain and insomnia... and it is mixed with too much pressure from life. I have not escaped any of the problems that people should encounter in middle age. It is really too energetic. It also caused some quality of my books to decline. I would like to apologize sincerely to everyone.

But there are also happy things. First of all, I became a gentler person. Even in the most difficult times, my family was still full of love. The readers gave me great encouragement and comfort.

I said that since October, this book has become a safe haven for my soul to escape from reality. I hope it can be written more than anyone else, but I really feel that when I arrive, I should play "Happy Tonight". Writing further may be a ghost story...

In addition, I am happy, of course, this book has achieved good results. The electronic subscription broke its own record and sold all the ones that should be sold. In short, there is no regret.

What makes me happier is that I find that my writing mentality is still very young. My writing attitude is also very correct, and I also found my initial enthusiasm for writing.

As for the new book, don’t worry. Now I am exhausted physically and mentally. I have to take a good rest after the New Year, exercise, and accumulate energy. I will accompany my family and at the same time conceive a particularly good story.

Because I now clearly realize that I am no longer young, and I can write a few books even if I read one book every two years? So I must take each book seriously, not just say how to do it. I have to be responsible for my writing career... Of course, the core of good characters, good plots, and good rhythm will not change.

It must be a good story, and I will not post it if I am not satisfied this time!
Chapter completed!
