Ah, another volume~
After the emergency overhaul of the outline, we finally connected to the main plot of locks and cracks, holes and wedges.
Ji Jue had finally set foot upon the road of fate, and we could at last happily kill, kill, kill, and chop, chop, chop. Truly cause for celebration~
Thank you all for your support and love, for letting me take things slowly, bit by bit, for so long. Thank you, thank you!
So, in keeping with my usual bad habit, please allow me to slack off for a few days... I'm terribly sorry, but it isn't laziness. It's just that after staring at that shriveled, hollow outline and suffering through it for so long, I'm genuinely mentally and emotionally exhausted, my mind completely dried up, to the point where I really can't come up with any interesting plot anymore.
Like needing to surface for air after staying underwater too long.
And while I'm at it, flop around for a while...
These past two days, I've actually been traveling long distances. Every day, I arrive somewhere, then squat in an inn or hotel and type away on my laptop. The desks and chairs in inns are practically just decorations—use them for too long, and my neck, back, and waist hurt like hell, as if Old Dog from the Heavenly Furnace had given me a beating...
All day, I'm sprawled in the car; at night, I'm sprawled in bed, staring with my eyes open and drooling. There's a kind of idiot beauty to it.
Please let me happily be an idiot for a few more days.
Once I've finished drooling, the painkillers kick in, the lamp burns through the lock, and Duo Duo finishes her noodles... Anyway, I'll be back soon!
Lastly, thank you all.
