"How to fish, take off your pants and fish?"
Liu Zheng said with empty eyes.
"Vulgar."
Cow-Horse glanced at him with contempt.
"Aren't all your tentacles just bait and fishing line?"
"I doubt it will bite it off by the roots."
He looked at Giant-Mouthed Whale and said with a mouth full of fangs.
"Just bite it off, you can still grow it anyway."
Cow-Horse means it doesn't matter.
"How can we catch fish if the line is broken?"
"That's why I gave you that knife. Napoleon didn't say it was alive. It's all over if you just stab it to death."
Cow-Horse said.
"Oh, that's fine."
Liu Zheng nodded.
It's much easier to catch someone dead than someone alive.
"Don't make it too ugly, otherwise Napoleon won't accept the goods."
Cow-Horse reminded.
"Got it."
He agreed.
"By the way, where is Sewer?"
Liu Zheng took out the map and asked.
"They say it's Sewer. It must be everywhere."
Cow-Horse looked at him strangely.
How come this guy can be so stupid and a thief from time to time?
"It's not because your world is a mess."
Liu Zheng felt unhappy, but did not say anything.
"I'm asking if there is a fixed entrance?"
"No, any manhole cover or ditch can lead to Sewer. But if you must, I recommend that you either go down from the entrance on Restaurant or the entrance above That Tree Street."
Cow-Horse replied.
"Why?"
"Giant-Mouthed Whale likes nutrient-rich water quality. The Sewer below Restaurant has accumulated essence for many years, which is most suitable for their growth. If you can catch Giant-Mouthed Whale, Giant-Mouthed Whale, Napoleon, Golden Crown Tier, I might just give you the knife."
Cow-Horse said.
"Then what's the benefit of going down from the entrance of Dai Lego street?"
"It can protect you. Do you think it can earn so much wealth just by digging in the soil?"
"But the Sewer underneath it is probably not well maintained, and there may not be Giant-Mouthed Whale inside."
Cow-Horse said.
"Then I'll go to Dai Lego's place to try first."
Liu Zheng made a decision quickly.
If you can't catch anything, go to the one below Restaurant.
"It's up to you. And this one is also given by Napoleon."
Cow-Horse gave him a bag of freeze-dried stuff.
"Name: Special Powerful Bait"
"Type: prop"
"Quality: Excellent"
"Effect: After eating it, it will emit pheromones that are particularly effective against Giant-Mouthed Whale and its fellow creatures."
"Remarks: Brother, you smell so good."
"Can copies be taken out: No"
"Wait a minute, what the hell are creatures of the same species?"
Liu Zheng discovered the blind spot.
"Biological classification, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species. You didn't pay attention in class, right?"
Cow-Horse looked down at him like a top student.
"I know about biological classification. I mean, will this Baiting Agent attract things other than Giant-Mouthed Whale?"
"Of course. Where is Baiting Agent so accurate? It would be nice to limit it to Giant-Mouthed Whale."
Cow-Horse said.
"Then what level does Giant-Mouthed Whale rank among its peers?"
Liu Zheng asked with some anxiety.
"If you want to talk about the quality of the meat, it is of course the first grade. I used to mix it with a little bit of water, and when I used it to make hot pot, it was so tender."
Cow-Horse smacked his lips while talking.
"Where's the combat power?"
"Combat power, the juveniles of other species use their tails to slap the adult Giant-Mouthed Whale for fun."
Cow-Horse shrugged.
"Haha, then I think this should be renamed a powerful suicide agent."
Liu Zheng complained.
"Anyway, I gave you the stuff, you can use it if you like."
"Actually, it's not bad to catch other fish of the same species. Napoleon will collect them all. If you don't want money, you can also exchange them for things. If nothing else, the wine it hides will be enough for you."
Cow-Horse said.
"Let's talk about it later."
He was noncommittal.
At least he needs to confirm the strength of Giant-Mouthed Whale first.
If you have trouble catching Giant-Mouthed Whale, then you don't want to catch its sibling.
Liu Zheng doesn't want to make trouble for himself.
I made a plan, but now I have to face a recurring problem.
time.
Judging from his modest fishing experience, the meal delivery time is definitely not enough.
It seems that I can only seek help from off-site.
Liu Zheng's mind flashed with two numbers.
After some thought, he made a decision.
"Senior, what do you want from me?"
When I answered the phone, Novelist's voice was still full of energy.
"How have you been writing the novel these two days?"
he asked.
"The plot is okay, but the editor said the writing wasn't quite right. I asked him specifically what was wrong, but he never got back to me."
When it came to the novel, Novelist immediately became distressed.
"Send it to me."
"Wouldn't it be too troublesome, senior?"
Novelist is a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, I just have something to ask you for."
"Well, then I will send it to senior now."
Hearing his candid words, Novelist also got up.
Soon, she sent several MMS messages.
The photo is not very good, but the characters can still be barely recognized.
It only took a few minutes for Liu Zheng to finish reading her manuscript.
"The pace is too slow."
As soon as he entered his professional field, Liu Zheng turned on the Tyrant mode.
"Look at the first chapter. Why did you spend three paragraphs describing the names and looks of other students? Is there a plot behind them?"
"No, no."
Novelist whispered.
"Why are they writing without you? In the first chapter, every inch of land is valuable, and you waste it like this?"
Liu Zheng said fiercely.
"I wanted to add a little more sense of immersion."
Novelist explained.
"How can you give the supporting character Reader a sense of empathy? It will only cause confusion in their perspective."
"Okay, okay."
Even through the phone, Liu Zheng seemed to be able to see her lowering her head.
"Also, why are all your sentences long? None of them are less than forty words."
He pointed out another problem.
"I don't feel like this. I can't finish what I want to say."
Novelist thought for a while and replied.
"You have finished speaking, but Reader doesn't want to hear it. Change it, it can't exceed twenty characters in a sentence, and delete all the meaningless rhetoric in it."
"As someone who writes about urban themes, why do you use eyebrows that look like a frown but not a frown, and eyes that look like a happy but not happy expression? Are you afraid that Reader will not appear in the show?"
Liu Zheng said sharply.
"I used to write like this when I was writing ancient Chinese novels. Reader really liked reading it."
Novelist whispered.
"Do you wear a cheongsam when you go swimming?"
he asked.
"No, I won't wear it."
Novelist understood what he meant and his voice became even lower.
"The choice of words and sentences must be consistent with the subject matter, and even conform to the reading habits of readers of that subject matter. Otherwise, it will be like selling braised pork in Dingzhen Temple, no matter how delicious it is, no one will buy it."
Liu Zheng said earnestly.
"I understand, senior."
Novelist responded loudly.
"I'll give you a revised version, and you can make another revised version and send it to me for review."
he said.
"Yeah. Thank you, senior."
Novelist clamped a little more.
After hanging up the phone, Liu Zheng took ten minutes to write an introduction and sent it to her via text message.
Five minutes later, Novelist replied with a text message.
"!!!"
He smiled slightly.
Although I no longer write web articles, it is still easy to come up with a standard beginning.
Half an hour later, Novelist sent several more MMS messages.
"How do you feel about yourself?"
Liu Zheng made a call after reading it.
"It feels a bit unaccustomed, but it does look much smoother than before."
Novelist said.
"Yes, this is the standard writing style for online writing. You should stick to this direction first, and then you can explore your own style after you get started."
His tone became a little gentler.
"Hmm."
On the other end of the phone, Novelist nodded crazily.
"Senior, what do you need me to do? I'm very convenient these days."
She said proactively.
