Chapter 1689
Wu Chengen plays an important role as a novelist, and there are not many novelists to begin with.
So there is more unity.
There are four great kings in the novel world, namely Luo Guanzhong of"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Wu Chengen, the author of"Journey to the West", Shi Naian of"Water Margin", and Cao Xueqin of"Dream of Red Mansions".
The four of them have quite high status in the novel world.
However, due to historical reasons,"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"》、《journey to the west》、《Water Margin》、《"Dream of Red Mansions" did not appear.
In its place are other works.
Of course, these are not the only people in the novel world.
And the author of"The Romance of the Gods" - Xu Zhonglin
《Author of"The Complete Biography of Yue Yue" - Qian Cai
《Author of"Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties" - Chu Renhuo
《"Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness" author Shi Yukun and so on.
These are the mainstays of novelists.
They wrote novels and legends.
It adds a touch of rich color to this world.
Wu Chengen is responsible for the writing work of"Celebrity Newspapers".
Because it is aimed at the public, the common people.
So it shouldn’t be too formal.
The writing of Chen Lin, Cai Yong and others is too formal, making it not particularly difficult for people to read.
Novelists are different, they are easy to understand.
In addition, the representative of the traveler is"Xu Xiake", who is famous in Chinese history.
Originally, Li Daoyuan was wanted to take the role.
But Li Daoyuan's person could not be found.

But in terms of fame, only Xuanzang and Zheng He can compare with Xu Xiake.
Xu Xiake, Xuanzang, and Zheng He were different.
Behind Xuanzang was Tang Taizong Li Shimin.
Behind Zheng He was Zhu Di, the founder of Ming Dynasty.
Xu Xiake is a folk person.

Xu Xiake's travels were not simply to seek out wonders, but more importantly, to explore the mysteries of nature and find its laws. His investigations and research on mountains, waterways, geology and landforms have made achievements beyond those of his predecessors.
The travel notes he wrote are not only precious documents in geography, but also travel literature with exquisite writing skills. His travel notes are as simple and beautiful as the nature he describes. Some people praised it as"the true writing, the great writing, the strange writing in the world"."

The last one is the person sent by the imperial court.
Responsible for effectively delivering celebrity newspapers and magazines to local locations.
This person in charge is held by"Qing Wu" who is both civil and military.
Said to be ruthless and responsible.
In fact, it is the policeman with six doors.
There is a group of people in the six doors who specialize in delivering"celebrity newspapers and periodicals", somewhat similar to today's couriers.
There is no danger and it is easy.
But the salary is low
······
Lu Yan was chatting with his boss while eating the shredded pork noodles in front of him.
The boss is very talkative.
Also, if you are not talkative, how can you attract business?
Lu Yan got a lot of useful information from his boss
"Boss, nothing happened to you recently, right?"
"Why not?" There was no business at the noodle stall for the time being. He sat across from Lu Yan and started talking with him.
"You don’t know, a big event happened some time ago. People from the Liao Kingdom came to worship. Our emperor was in Song Dynasty, not in Yundu. The people from the Liao Kingdom actually wanted to rescue Xiao Yanyan. Fortunately, Mr. Liu Bowen discovered the clues and took Xiao Yanyan away. was saved, otherwise······Such a person escaped."
Of course Lu Yan knew who Xiao Yanyan was.
The famous Queen Mother of the Liao Kingdom.
His talent was one of the best even in the history of the Liao Kingdom. If you want to rescue Xiao Yanyan, then there must be Han Derang
"Why didn't they report this?"After Lu Yan decided to return to the palace, he asked
"Brother, come to our country of Yun if you have the chance. The treatment in Yun country is really great, especially in Yundu, where there is no war and stability." The noodle stall owner saw that Lu Yan was more honest.
He warned him.
Lu Yan listened. Hearing what the other party said, he nodded.
At this time, a large group of people came to the noodle stall.
