[Martial Arts] Infinite Chamber Game

Chapter 13: Brilliant Writing

Both Hua Manlou and Lei Chun looked as if they had been struck repeatedly by thunder. The expressions on their faces were so complicated that it was difficult to describe them in words.

Li Mochou obviously didn't understand what was going on. She looked them up and down, twisted the whisk handle, and said quietly, "Do you think this story framework is bad?"

Judging from the situation, if she hears a "no", she wouldn't mind fighting on the spot.

The point is, this is not a question of whether it is good or not! It’s that the people in the story are people they know!

Lei Chun thought about it according to the story framework given by Li Mochou. Su Mengzhen had an affair with someone else's wife... Su Mengzhen seduced someone else's wife... He seduced... Hahahahaha, Lei Chun really couldn't help it and laughed secretly with his hands covering his face.

Who is Su Mengzhen? He was plagued by seven or eight kinds of injuries and diseases, but his aloof spirit still made heroes tremble. Everyone said that people with such a terminal illness would not live long, but he survived. Not only did he survive, he also practiced extremely powerful martial arts, developed the power left by his father, and after the battle with Liufenbantang, he became the leader of both the black and white worlds in Beijing.

How could a man like him have any love in his heart? And he was with someone else's wife... No, Lei Chun couldn't think about it anymore. If she thought about it, she would die of laughter at this weird plot.

Hua Manlou couldn't hold back when Lei Chun laughed. He tilted his head, covered his forehead with his hands, and his shoulders kept shaking. In fact, he could have controlled himself, but Lu Xiaofeng - of course Hua Manlou had to admit that this name did sound a bit like a girl, but everyone who knew Lu Xiaofeng knew that he was a real man!

He was engaged to another man? He was originally Ye Gucheng's lover? He also seduced Ximen Chuxue to avenge Ye Gucheng? In the end, he inexplicably got pregnant with his fiancé's brother's child?

Hahahaha, if you tell this to others, not only will no one believe it, but they might even burst out laughing.

Of course, Hua Manlou could have made the protagonist of this story a girl with the same name, but the problem was that he was too familiar with Lu Xiaofeng! So familiar with her that when he mentioned this name, the hearty and clear laughter and the legendary four eyebrows suddenly came into his mind and were written into the story seamlessly. Who could resist laughing?

You know, the most taboo thing about laughter is holding back. The more you try to hold it back, the easier it is to laugh out loud. So Lei Chun and Hua Manlou were originally grinding the pen while the other was spreading the paper. When they picked up the pen, their hands couldn't help shaking, and thick ink dripped onto the paper, and then they laughed out loud.

Li Mochou was confused by their laughter: "What's wrong?"

Lei Chun waved at her and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Hua Manlou put his hand on his forehead and tried his best to control his breathing.

Seeing that the two of them couldn't continue writing no matter what they said, Li Mochou suddenly had an epiphany and understood.

"This story actually happened to you, right? It's just that you deliberately concealed your name when you wrote it."

She glanced at the Forbidden City: "Playboy Hua must have heard this story from a friend, so he ended it hastily at the critical point. As for Miss Lei, she must be..."

Lei Chunqing coughed, interrupting Li Mochou's words, then smiled at her apologetically, tapping his fingers on the table, and slowly said, "I suddenly feel that using people around me as characters in the story is a very energy-saving thing, because their appearance, age, personality and even experience are ready-made, and we can just use them to write. If I have to come up with a new one myself, it will take a lot more time."

"We don't have much time. We have to finish more than 600,000 words within 30 days. If we consider that we have to re-copy the manuscript after it is finished, the time is even tighter. In total, we have to write at least 20,000 words a day."

This does not include the time for conception. Just writing word by word takes me from morning to night. It can be said that time is tight and the task is heavy. At this time, I can only say sorry to my friends who are far away from home.

Lei Chun was the first to start writing, and the name of the first chapter had already been decided.

"The lustful little phoenix and the mandarin ducks are tied together in the silk curtains, and the wise sword god catches the adulterer at night on the top of the Forbidden City."

"That's right." Li Mochou nodded and said, "I know a trick. If those storytellers want their books to sell well, they have to write some obscene things at the beginning to attract people's attention. Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, when I was traveling around the world, if I saw a storytelling place with a lot of people, I knew that the storyteller must have told something unbearable to the ears."

Lei Chun said repeatedly: "That's right, that's why when my father was still alive, he never allowed me to go to those places, for fear that I would hear some dirty and scandalous things."

After the two women finished speaking, they looked at Hua Manlou with smiles on their faces.

Hua Manlou opened a pair of confused and empty eyes and blinked again and again.

Seeing that he still didn't understand, Li Mochou simply said, "Mr. Hua, Miss Lei and I are both women, how can we write something like this... this... So, I'll trouble you with this paragraph, Mr. Hua."

When Hua Manlou learned the title of the first chapter, the tea he had just drunk almost sprayed out of his nose.

"Actually..." Hua Manlou coughed for a long time and said hesitantly: "This Lu Xiaofeng is a friend of mine."

"Oh."

"He's a man!"

"Oh?"

Li Mochou's eyes shone: "Since he is a man, why should he be called Lu Xiaofeng? Why not Lu Dalong?"

How would Hua Manlou know? He didn't come up with the name!

Li Mochou thought about it and said, "Forget it, then I won't give him the role of the fiancée. Why not..." While saying "why not", she looked at Lei Chun. Lei Chun immediately said, "What does it matter if he's a man!"

She didn't want to be written into that kind of story, not even a little bit! It would be fine for other characters, but this was a huge shit pot, and she could put it on someone else if she could. She immediately started to defend herself, her mind was working so fast!

"Can't a man get engaged to another man? Can't a man go to bed with another man? Can't a man seduce another man? Who made these rules? I think that if a man like Su Mengzhen needs a fiancée, it has to be Lu Xiaofeng!"

"Don't you think that in this wonderful story, it would be much more interesting if a man did these things than if a woman did them?"

Li Mochou was convinced, because she had never seen such a scene before. If someone told her such a story, she would definitely buy the book to read and broaden her horizons.

I don’t know whether she was enlightened or not, but Hua Manlou was really enlightened.

"The first chapter is particularly important. Instead of making a fool of ourselves in the opening poem, we should just quote the "Yan Qiu Ci" (The Wild Goose Mound)." Li Mochou wrote:

"I ask the world, what is love that makes people promise to be together through life and death? The two travelers fly together from north to south, and their old wings have experienced many winters and summers. Joy is fun, separation is painful..." This poem had not been written in Lei Chun's time. She seemed to be touched, and she immediately wrote with a flourish. With a few strokes, the outline of the first chapter came out.

[…It is said that on the eve of the epic decisive battle at the Forbidden City, a man wearing a thick cloak that concealed his figure and face quietly came to the northwest corner of the Forbidden City. He pushed open the door, and the candlelight was dim. Ye Gucheng was dozing on the bed with a sword in his arms.

When he saw someone coming, he opened his eyes. Although the person covered his face, he still recognized him.

"You came."

"I am coming."

"You shouldn't have come."

"I have to come!"

The cloak fell to the ground, and it turned out to be the fiancée of the owner of the Jinfengxiyu Tower.

Many people were wondering why Su Mengzhen would accept a man as his fiancée? Even if it was an arranged marriage, when he found out that the other party was a man, he should have called off the marriage, especially since the power of his fiancée's family was incompatible with his power, and they would have to fight to the death sooner or later.

Why is Mr. Su so confused?
But when the man under the cloak reveals his face, no one will have such doubts, because he is really...】

Having written this, Lei Chun looked at Hua Manlou and asked, "I wonder what your friend looks like?"

Hua Manlou drank a cup of tea silently and said, "Miss Lei, just leave it there. I will fill it in when I polish it."

Lei Chun continued writing.

[With his looks, family background, wisdom and martial arts, falling in love with him has nothing to do with whether he is a man or a woman. With his charm, falling in love with him is a very normal thing.

Ye Gucheng is of course no exception.

They had been secretly communicating with each other for a long time, and they had risked meeting each other countless times.

The swordsman in white finally stopped hesitating, walked up slowly, untied Lu Xiaofeng's clothes, and his breath fell on his ears. Ye Gucheng said softly: "I know that you came to this place at this time just to make me relax. Only by relaxing can I win."

"You will definitely win."

In the darkness, two people hugged each other, but saw...】

Lei Chun tactfully stopped writing here and reserved six full pages of paper for this paragraph - there were grids on the paper, one page of paper, three hundred and fifty grids, representing three hundred and fifty words.

[Ye Gucheng lost. For a swordsman like him, losing means death.

As Lu Xiaofeng heard the news spreading in the streets, his heart went cold and his body trembled like a flame in the wind. He thought of that night again...】

Three more pages were left blank.

Li Mochou watched from the side, thought about it, and added two more pages at her discretion.

He didn't notice that Su Mengzhen had come up behind him, gently put a cloak on him, and said, "It's cold, don't be exposed to the wind, or you might get frozen."

Lu Xiaofeng sneered.

What's the point of wearing thick clothes? The only love of his life has left him forever!

He swore that he would take revenge, he would take revenge! He would make Ximen Chuxue die without a burial place! He would make him taste the pain he had endured!
Ximen Chuxue was indeed suffering, and his pain was brought about by his wife and the man standing behind Lu Xiaofeng.

That very night.

He saw it, and he saw it very clearly, watching...】

Lei Chun pondered, a little hesitant: "How much should I leave here?"

Li Mochou made a rough estimate and said, "They are not at the center of the story, so three pages will be enough."

[Outside the window, there were lightning, thunder and heavy rain.

Ximen Chuxue's eyes were like a storm. He drew his sword and said word by word: "Su Mengzhen, how dare you do this!"

"If you insult her, you are insulting me! I will kill you this time!"]

At this point, the outline of the first chapter was completed and was handed to Hua Manlou. The two women smiled at him together.

"Next, it will be hard work for you, Mr. Hua."
