Chapter 210 Breaking Through the Restricted Book Area and the Old Bookworm

In the dark tunnel, a black train is running.

This is not an ordinary train, but a special train bound for the forbidden-book area of ​​Yufeng Story City.

At this time, there are a total of 10 people in the train carriage, and they are the top 10 writers in the finals of the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest.
These writers are selected from thousands of first-class writers, and each writer has top-level creative skills.

Of course, there is one exception, Liu Xing.

In order to find the book tomb, Liu Xing has now pretended to be Fu Changding, and he will enter the forbidden book area as Fu Changding.

At the same time, he will also participate in the novel contest in the forbidden area.In the forbidden book area, ten writers will compete and finally decide the ranking of the contest.

Thinking of this question, Liu Xing still feels a little stressed. He has never studied novel creation, but now he has to compete with these 9 top writers to write novels. The situation is not optimistic...
"I heard that the competition in the forbidden-book area is held in the form of breaking through barriers?" At this time, a middle-aged man sitting in seat No. 2 of the carriage said. The man has a handsome face, about 35 years old, and his name is Ouyang Wen.

Ouyang Wen came from the Tuxue School of Fiction. He received a doctorate from the writing department three years ago. He became a five-star writer at the age of 26. He is the youngest five-star writer in Eastern China.

"The forbidden book area is a huge dungeon. The dungeon is like a maze. We need to break through the dungeon maze." An old man over sixty years old sitting in seat 5 said with a smile.

This old man has an unusual background. His name is Wu Guoqian, and he is the elder brother of Wu Guokun, the director of Tianhai Book Testing Center.Twenty years ago, Wu Guogan participated in the 20th Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest and won No.9.

Today, 20 years later, Wu Guoqian competed again.Although he is 65 years old, he is still strong and strong, and he passed all the way and easily advanced to the top ten.

Wu Guoqian, like Liu Xing, belongs to the Yufeng Division.
"Mr. Wu, this is the second time for you to participate in the competition in the forbidden book area. Can you tell us about the situation in the forbidden book area?" Ouyang Wen asked curiously.

Wu Guoqian helped his reading glasses, and introduced: "It's been 20 years since I participated in the competition last time. At that time, the forbidden-book area was a dungeon, and there were three passages in the dungeon, and each passage had some checkpoints. The checkpoints are checked by an abnormal scholar. To pass these checkpoints, we must write a novel that satisfies this abnormal reader. Therefore, the way we pass the checkpoints is to write novels."

Ouyang Wen was puzzled: "What do you mean by 'perverted scholar'?"

Wu Guoqian explained: "There is a group of crazy scholars living in the forbidden-book area. These scholars are reading geniuses, well-read, and old bookworms who have read millions of novels. Because they are all tired of reading common novels, Therefore, I like to read some heavy-taste forbidden-books. Because of this, the psychology of these readers is very distorted and perverted, and the types of novels they like to read are not the same as ordinary people. When we break through the barrier, It is necessary to write works that satisfy these perverted readers."

Ouyang Wen frowned slightly: "Doesn't this mean that we need to write banned books?"

Wu Guoqian explained: "This is not necessarily the case. In fact, as long as the novel has enough creativity, it is possible to satisfy this group of perverted readers. These perverted readers are only forced to read banned books because of the book shortage. Yes, if we can create novel novels, we can attract them as well."

Everyone suddenly realized.

"So, to win the competition in the forbidden-book section, there are only two ways." Ouyang Wen concluded, "One is to write innovative novels, and the other is to write forbidden-books."

Wu Guoqian nodded: "Whether it is writing innovative novels or writing banned books, this is a challenge for writers to themselves. Only when they can break through themselves can they be regarded as truly first-class writers. This is the summary of the novel contest. The fundamental reason why the finals will be held in the restricted-book area."

"In this way, the competition in the forbidden book area seems to be very difficult. It is difficult to grasp the tastes of this group of perverted scholars."

"Perverted readers have read more than 100 million novels. They must have very picky tastes, right?"

……

Several writers including Wu Guoqian and Ouyang Wen started discussing the topic of the Forbidden Books Competition.

Liu Xing did not participate in the discussion, because his attention was attracted by something in the carriage—a beautiful woman.

I saw a woman in white clothes sitting on seat 9 in the carriage. She was about 25 years old, her pupils were clear and bright, as beautiful as stars, and under the thin willow eyebrows, a pair of long eyelashes fluttered slightly. The fair and flawless skin was light pink, and the thin lips were as delicate as rose petals, which looked quite seductive.

When seeing this woman for the first time, Liu Xing was not surprised by her beauty, but that she looked a little familiar.

The woman in white looks somewhat similar to Hua Qingxue.

Hua Qingxue is a student of Lianhua Novel Academy. She was once kidnapped by the Goddess Book Club to Baihua Mountain, and later rescued by Liu Xing. Liu Xing had a relationship with Hua Qingxue.

The white-clothed woman in front of her was about [-]% similar to Hua Qingxue in appearance, but she was three or four years older than Hua Qingxue.

Liu Xing looked at the writer's certificate hanging on the chest of the woman in white, and found that her name was Hua Yingxue.
"Hua Yingxue? Hua Yingxue should be Hua Qingxue's older sister, right?"

Liu Xing secretly speculated in his heart.

Hua Yingxue is only 25 years old this year, and she was able to advance to the top ten of the novel competition. Her talent is truly astonishing, a rare event in 20 years!
Hua Yingxue is the youngest among the top ten writers, and also the biggest dark horse in this year's Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest.
more than an hour later.

"Passengers, please pay attention. The train has arrived at the forbidden-book area of ​​Yufeng Story City. Please get off in order. I wish you all a pleasant journey..."

After the broadcast sounded, ten writers including Liu Xing, Hua Qingxue, Ouyang Wen, Wu Guoqian got up at the same time, took their luggage and got off the train one after another.

When I got off the train, a castle appeared in front of me.

The castle is about 80 meters high, with black walls, like a black eagle standing on the ground, a pair of 180-meter-long giant wings spread out in the sky, giving people a strong sense of oppression head-on.

This black castle is a dungeon in the forbidden area!
At the gate of the castle, there are hundreds of heavily armed police guards. On the high platforms on both sides of the castle, there are patrolmen and snipers in ambush, and the guards are extremely strict.

Liu Xing and other 10 writers came to the gate of the castle together and showed their IDs.

"Are you writers who are here to participate in the novel contest?"

"Yes."

"Okay, let's go in."

After confirming the identity, the gate of the castle opened slowly.

10 writers walked in.

Walking into the castle, everyone came to a spacious hall. In front of the hall, three passages appeared.

From this moment on, the race to break through the forbidden book area officially begins.

The three passages represent three different routes to break through the level.

The 10 writers can freely choose the route to break through.

Generally speaking, writers from the same division will choose the same route.
Thus, three writers from the Moon Watching Division walked to the first passage, and two writers from the Lianhua Division walked to the second passage.

As for Liu Xing and Wu Guoqian, both from the Yufeng competition area, they went to the third channel.

According to the person from Alcatraz gave Liu Xing a map last night, the map shows that the third passage seems to be the route leading to the tomb of books.

"Hua Yingxue, shall we also choose the second passage?" At this time, Ouyang Wen invited.

"Sorry, I want to choose the third passage." After speaking, Hua Qingxue turned and walked away, following behind Liu Xing.

Ouyang Wen was a little surprised. Hua Qingxue came from the Lianhua competition area, and she didn't choose the same route as the other two writers in the Lianhua competition area.

"Sure enough, she is a girl with personality!"

Ouyang Wen smiled faintly, and immediately followed Hua Yingxue without thinking too much.

In this way, there are four people in the third channel: Liu Xing, Hua Yingxue, Ouyang Wen and Wu Guoqian.

Four people from three different divisions.

Along the passage, the four of them walked forward together.

The passage is about three meters wide, with black walls on both sides, the light is weak, and there is no one in sight, and it is quiet.

After walking about 50 meters, a black iron gate appeared ahead, blocking the way.

The first level has appeared!

The four of them walked to the iron gate and found that the iron gate was locked and could not be opened at all.

Liu Xing secretly performed "The Great Shift of the Universe", and the iron gate stood still.

"Hahahaha! It's useless, this iron door is made of supercrystalline alloy, it can't be opened by a cannon! Hahahaha!"

At this time, a hearty voice came from the left side. Liu Xing turned his head and saw a prison cell opposite the iron gate, in which a white-haired old man was imprisoned.

"If you want to open the iron door, you have to write a novel that satisfies me, hahahaha!" The old man laughed loudly, like an old urchin who had been beaten to death, and he was in a state of extreme excitement.

Liu Xing frowned slightly, and asked Wu Guoqian: "Is this old man in the cell the 'perverted scholar' you mentioned?"
"That's right. This old man is one of the 'nine old bookworms' in the forbidden-book area. He has read more than 100 million novels. This old bookworm became obsessed with novels because he was tired of reading normal novels. After reading pornographic novels, his temperament changed drastically, and he became an old pervert, and was finally arrested by the police and imprisoned here."

Wu Guoqian explained, "We can pass the first hurdle only if we write a novel that old bookworms like."

Liu Xing basically understands that the old bookworm in the cell seems to be a hardcore reader, who went astray only because of the book shortage and obsession with pornographic novels.

Ouyang Wen walked to the door of the cell and asked, "Old bookworm, what kind of novels do you like, we will write one for you right now."

"Hahahaha! I like novels with many beauties. The protagonist of the novel must build a harem, and the relationship between the protagonist and the beauties must be distorted... Hahahaha!" The old bookworm laughed wildly again.

"How beautiful? Built a harem? Emotionally distorted?"

After summing up these three key words, Ouyang Wen took out his laptop from his backpack and started writing related novels.

Wu Guoqian and Hua Yingxue were not idle, they also took out their notebooks and prepared to write.

Each of them has to write a novel temporarily, and the old bookworm will evaluate the novel according to his own preferences.

The evaluation of old bookworms is the score of these writers.The higher the rating, the higher the score.

At the end of the checkpoint, the person with the highest score is the champion of the novel contest.
"Hahahaha! Hurry up and write, and remember that there must be many beauties in the novel, and a harem must be built!" The old bookworm laughed and reminded, "Also, the relationship between men and women must be distorted! Haha Ha ha!"

Hua Yingxue, Wu Guoqian, and Ouyang Wen all started writing novels, so Liu Xing had to take out his laptop and prepare to write novels.

"What to write?"

Liu Xing was in a bit of trouble, he had never studied creative writing, if he wrote novels at his own level, the works he would write would be terrible, at least far below Fu Changding's level.

"For the current plan, we can only rely on copying novels to support the scene."

Liu Xing has been fascinated by many novels, and he and these novels have reached the state of "integration of man and book", so the words of the novels have already been recorded in his mind.

He has the ability to silently write ecstatic novels.

Of course, out of complete consideration, he needs to make some revisions to the novel, whether it is the names of the characters in the novel or the plot of the novel, some adjustments need to be made appropriately.

"Which novel should I revise?"

Liu Xing fell into thinking.
Old bookworms require that novels must have the three characteristics of "many beauties", "constructed harem", and "emotional distortion". Liu Xing naturally chooses a novel that meets these three requirements to adapt.

""The Legend of the Condor Heroes"? It doesn't meet the requirements. Guo Jing is devoted to Huang Rong. There is only one beautiful woman, and there is no 'harem'."

""Yi Tian Shou Long Ji"? It doesn't meet the requirements. Although there are many beauties around Zhang Wuji, he didn't establish a 'harem', and he only married Zhao Min in the end. What's more, Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min, Xiao Zhao, Zhou Zhiruo and other women The feelings are not distorted enough."

""Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword"? It also doesn't meet the requirements. Li Xunhuan took the initiative to wear a cuckold, and the relationship is indeed a bit distorted, but there is no 'harem' either!"

……

Liu Xing pondered secretly, going through all the novels he had been fascinated by in his mind, looking for novels that met the requirements.

"Huh? Yes!"

Not long after, a wonderful thought flashed through his mind, and Liu Xing secretly rejoiced: I finally found a novel that satisfies the three requirements at the same time!Start writing!
Thinking of this, Liu Xing put his hands on the keyboard of the computer and started typing.

Looking around from the corner of his eye, he found that Hua Yingxue, Wu Guoqian, and Ouyang Wen who were sitting beside him had already started typing.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xing couldn't help admiring these three writers. In just a few minutes, they had conceived an idea for a novel, faster than Liu Xing's conceived!
"Forget it, write a novel first!"
clap clap clap!
In the channel, the sound of keyboards kept coming and going, and the four people were tapping the keyboards with both hands rapidly. Among them, Liu Xing was the one who typed the slowest.

Liu Xing can type about 1 characters per minute, which is not too bad a speed.It's just that compared with professional writers, Liu Xing's speed is considered slow.

In Huaxia Kingdom, professional writers have undergone professional training for their typing speed. They not only use professional input methods, but also continuously accumulate their own vocabulary.

After more than ten years of training, the typing speed of a professional writer can reach 500 words per minute, and about 3 words per hour, which is five times faster than Liu Xing!
More than four hours later.

"All right!"

At this moment, Ouyang Wen suddenly stopped. He had already finished writing a 20-word novel!
Ouyang Wen has the reputation of "quick shooter", and his writing speed is unmatched in the writing department of Tuxue Fiction Academy.

Another half hour.

Hua Yingxue also finished writing.

She is dexterous, and her typing speed with her slender and slender hands is not much inferior to that of Ouyang Wen.

Hua Yingxue just finished writing, not long after, Wu Guoqian also stopped.

He is over 60 years old, and his hands and feet are not as agile as young people, but after all, he has written novels for decades, and his foundation is still very solid.

While Ouyang Wen, Hua Yingxue, and Wu Guoqian were finishing their works, Liu Xing was still struggling at a slow speed of 100 words per minute.

"Fu Changding, why are you writing so slowly?" Ouyang Wen was a little surprised, professional writers are not as slow as Liu Xing.

"Slow work and meticulous work." Liu Xing said indifferently, "Of course I have to write fine novels slowly."

Ouyang Wen smiled and didn't say anything else, he just suspected that Liu Xing might be Calvin.

"Hahahaha! It's finished so soon!" At this moment, the old bookworm in the cell danced and urged, "Come on, show me the finished novel!"

"no problem."

Ouyang Wen, Hua Yingxue, and Wu Guoqian got up one after another, ready to let the old bookworms evaluate their works.If the old bookworm can be satisfied, this level will be passed smoothly.

As for Liu Xing, continue to immerse himself in coding.

"Oh, copying novels is really hard!"
