【Golden Five Chapters】

Chapter One: A Giant Bronze Coffin in the Starry Sky. Thirty-three years after its launch, Voyager 2 captured a miraculous image from 14 billion kilometers from Earth. Nearly a month later, astronauts orbiting the Earth witnessed the incredible Nine Dragons pulling the coffin appear before them.

Chapter 2, Su Wen. The protagonist, Ye Fan, is reading the Su Wen chapter of the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine at home. The book's descriptions spark a curiosity about ancient times. Later, Ye Fan drives to an important class reunion. While picking up a beautiful classmate, he's ridiculed by a fellow university student who's also staying in the area.

Chapter 3, Past and Present. Class reunions naturally bring a flurry of insincere flattery and comparisons. Ye Fan didn't flaunt his wealth, enduring the taunts and lamentations of slightly more powerful classmates. He even left the head table and retreated to the other students. Ye Fan lamented the changes in others' fortunes, and continued to accept their lamentations.

Chapter 4, Ancient Bronze Engraving. After dinner, they continued karaoke. Everyone dispersed and went home. Ye Fan didn't retaliate all night until he used his Mercedes-Benz to send off the ordinary female classmate who had been grieving all night. An invisible slap in the face is the most deadly. And the Nine Dragons pulling the coffin in space also made all the high-ranking officials on Earth anxious. Their decision was to take it down!

Chapter 5, Li Xiaoman. Revisiting my alma mater brings a special kind of emotion. During lunch, everyone's attitude towards Ye Fan was quietly changing. Then someone dropped a bombshell: a classmate from across the ocean was about to return, and the reunion was postponed. At the foot of Mount Tai, Ye Fan met his ex-girlfriend Li Xiaoman, and the two of them only exchanged polite greetings.

【Brief Comment】

Rereading "The Great Ruler", especially when I read it with the intention of reviewing it, does give me a different feeling from just reading it, because I pay special attention to every word.

Today we won’t talk about the overall situation, we will only talk about the beginning.

Because the beginning of a book is very important.

The three golden chapters were popular in the past, and later evolved into the five golden chapters and the ten golden chapters.

No matter how many chapters there are, whether the opening can catch the reader's attention, how to catch the attention, and how long it can catch the attention are particularly important.

The beginning of this book has always been highly praised by me and praised many times.

The Nine Dragons pulling the coffin appeared in the first chapter and did not land on the top of Mount Tai, the place of Fengshan, until the sixth chapter.

The dragon is a symbol of nobility, and nine is a supreme number. The appearance of nine dragons is already an incredible spectacle. Even more so, nine enormous dragon corpses. Who killed them?
Nine dragon corpses dragged a huge bronze coffin, galloping all the way across the starry sky. What were they doing here?
Inside the giant coffin, there was actually another bronze coffin hanging. What was inside that? Was it a human, or a god?
The ancient starry road appeared, the five-colored altar rose, the nine-dragon coffin disappeared, and when it reappeared it had already arrived at Yinghuo (Mars).

Two moons, red desert, tiles and text, all signs indicate that there are indeed traces of human survival on Mars.

But where have all the people gone? The Five-Colored Altar takes you on a journey through time and space. From the start, one story follows another, creating a constant suspense. No sooner has one plot point been unravelled than a new one arises, leaving you overwhelmed, yet seemingly plausible, as if these mysteries truly exist.

In another plot, the protagonist Ye Fan’s reunion with his classmates also has many twists and turns.

The protagonist enjoys ancient books of strange stories and fantasizes. On the way to a party, he's taunted by classmates with cars, mocked by the organizers, lectured by the people at the first table, and counseled by those at other tables. Ye Fan appears to ignore them all, but after karaoke, he uses his actions to taunt them, while also caring for vulnerable classmates. He's incredibly meticulous and unwavering in his revenge.

At the top of Mount Tai, the appearance of his ex-girlfriend and the foreign friends who came with him also makes people wonder about the probability of the protagonist and his reunion. Unfortunately, all these classmates were sucked into the bronze coffin, and even Pangbo, who arrived late, was not spared.

In despair, the true face of human nature is slowly torn apart and revealed to the readers: who are the hypocritical villains, who are the indifferent onlookers, and who are the truly warm-hearted people.

As for love, Ye Fan has no time to care about it, and readers have no time to think about it.

Because a new and different world has suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and how to integrate into and survive is the only right way.

And, Emperor Ye Tian, ​​Ye Fan, is walking towards the world step by step, walking towards countless aristocratic families, forbidden areas, and emperors, and crushing them!

A group of people's perfect world quietly opens~
【to sum up】

"The Great Ruler", which was published nine years ago, is still loved by countless readers.

The "Jade-Covering Trilogy" still starts with "Jade-Covering" and is read one by one.

Revisiting "The Great Ruler" is not only for the sake of sentimentality, but also a typical example of learning online writing.

It is true that “always imitated, never surpassed!”

In addition, some readers suggested that the editor’s new book "The Demon King of Collapse" be renamed "The Lord of Collapse". What do you think?

【Cang's Ramblings】

"The Great Ruler" is a masterpiece in my mind and in the eyes of my generation of old readers. No one can match it.

Although it is very subjective, reading is inherently a very subjective thing.

The person I like, I like very much.

People who don't like it will also complain about it.

This is all normal.

Just like my previous article, comparing "Lord of Mysteries" and "Sword Comes".

Personally, I find it easier to enter the world of "Sword Coming" and find it difficult to enter the world of "Lord of Mysteries".

However, the preaching in "The Sword Comes" is hard for me to accept.

I am also happy to continue recommending "Lord of Mysteries".

These do not conflict.

Of course, my favorite is still "The Great Ruler"!
So, welcome to leave a message and communicate~
