Universe Infinite Canteen

Chapter 624: Reality

The banquet lasted until the next morning, but Malu looked at the traveler bracelet on his wrist and found that less than 5 minutes had passed.

Zhu Jiu was right. The time in the novel was completely different from the outside world. Here, a year or two might pass with just a word from the author.

When the banquet was over, Malu even took a nap in the village and went to the pond to feed the strange beasts raised in it.

Zhu Qingqing found him and paid him the remaining 40,000 star coins as agreed, and thanked him and Lao Wang again for entering the book to help them prepare the banquet.

Malu accepted the star coin, "You are too polite, Chief Zhu. You can contact us again if you want to hold a banquet in the future."

Zhu Qingqing smiled and nodded, then shook her head, "We should stay in this book for a while. The next supporting role festival may be ten years later."

"Can I ask another question? This book is so badly written, why don't you consider changing the book?"

Malu couldn't help but ask, "Or is Zheng Qian the only great writer in this plane?"

"Well, it is true that in the eyes of outsiders, "The Great Emperor of the Ancients Started from the Cancellation of Engagement" is an absolutely bad book, and even our own people have complained about this.

"But this does not mean that this book has no advantages. As supporting characters, we have lived here for a while, so we should still have a certain say.

"The great author wrote a full 70,000 words of settings for this book, and also hand-painted more than a dozen maps. He put a lot of effort into the details, but it was covered up by the cliché plot. No one except us cared about it, and he was not like this before.

"When he first started writing online articles, the stories were quite interesting. Although sometimes they were messy, there were also many wild ideas and interesting developments.

"It just didn't meet the preferences of most readers, so the results were not very good. So later he learned from his mistakes and began to study the market trends, various cool routines, and kept the thunder-avoiding formula on his lips every day, and gradually he became a little obsessed.

"On the one hand, he tried hard to imitate the previous works on the bestseller list, but he couldn't completely let go of his personal preferences. He was stuck in the middle, neither up nor down, and became the current weird look.

"In the end, he went crazy and was sent to a mental hospital, where he was still dreaming of success and fame.

"I'm not saying this to excuse him, nor to say that the book "The Great Emperor of the Ancients Started from the Broken Engagement" is not bad.

"I have lived for more than 300 years and have lived in hundreds of novels, whether they are famous works or worse books than "The Ancient Emperor Starts from Breaking Off the Engagement".

"No matter how touching the stories are, no matter how realistic the world is, they are all fictional to me. Once you realize this, it is difficult for you to immerse yourself in it completely.

"In the final analysis, those of us on the stage are different from those off the stage. We always know in our hearts that no matter how well the story is performed, it is just a story.

"But even in such a novel world built entirely by imagination, there is "reality", and that "reality" is the feelings invested by the creators and their growth.

"Zheng Qian is writing our lives, and we are also reading his life."

Zhu Qingqing said, "The biggest worry when reading a novel is that the author will finish it badly. The same is true for us in the book. Once we choose a great writer, we will accompany him to the last moment of his life and read his life, whether it is good or bad, although he will not know our existence."

"——Does your work have readers at any time? Well, this feeling is inexplicably romantic." Ma Lu said.

Back to the bed in the mental hospital, Ma Lu heard the familiar crackling sound again.

The lights in the ward were off at this time, but Zheng Qian was still typing on the keyboard in the dark.

The faint light from the laptop screen made him look like a ghost.

For five and a half hours, except for taking the medicine sent by the nurse, Zheng Qian did not rest for a moment. Not only did he type out today's four thousand words, but he also typed one thousand more while he was in good condition.

It was not until the Shangguan family's story came to an end that he relaxed, picked up the iron lunch box by the windowsill, and dug hard into the cold rice inside.

It was only then that he noticed Malu on the bed.

"Hey, have you been here all the time?"

Malu yawned again. Although a lot of time had passed, he felt that the effect of the previous pills had not completely passed, and his head was still dizzy.

"Why don't you look sleepy at all? Didn't they feed you medicine?"

"Oh, I ate too much and have drug resistance, and I have to type. I won't fall asleep no matter how sleepy I am before I finish typing." Zheng Qian said proudly with his chest raised.

"Then you are really amazing." Malu yawned again.

"Just right, since you haven't slept, do you want to see what I'm going to say next?"

"No, I'll go back and subscribe directly."

"Oh, that's even better, eh, wait." Zheng Qian seemed to have thought of something, his expression suddenly changed, and he slapped his thigh.

"You can't bring your phone into the mental hospital. If you come in, doesn't that mean I'll lose a subscription forever?!"

"Don't worry, we'll be out soon, and we won't let you lose your subscription. By then, not only will I subscribe, but I'll also ask my friends to subscribe." Ma Lu patted Zheng Qian's shoulder.

"Is it true?" Zheng Qian said in surprise.

"A liar is a puppy."

"No.1, from now on you are my No.1 brother!" Zheng Qian smiled so hard that his mouth couldn't close.

"That's not necessary, your book..."

"What's wrong with my book, is there anything else to modify?" Zheng Qian put down his lunch box and created a document, "You tell me, I'll write it down."

"No, nothing." Malu changed his mind at the last minute. "The Ancient Emperor Started from the Broken Engagement" is no longer something that can be saved by changing anything, so it's better to cut it off and start over.

However, considering Zhu Qingqing and others who are still living in the book, Malu didn't make this suggestion.

He just said to Zheng Qian before leaving, "Come on! I'll wait for your update."

Zheng Qian was so excited that he almost cried when he heard this.

It took a lot of effort for Malu and Lao Wang to enter the Sunshine Mental Hospital, but it was much easier to get out.

He took out the [This is a Beaver] he brought with him. Malu has used [This is a Beaver] once this month, and there are two more opportunities to use it.

Considering that it is best to keep it for emergency use, Malu did not use it when he was admitted to the mental hospital this time, but saved it for discharge.

Under the influence of [This is Very Beaver], Malu and Lao Wang quickly completed the discharge procedures within half a day of hospitalization, and left Sunshine Mental Hospital with the farewell of doctors and nurses.
