Chapter 20 (2/2)

Actually, it was not really a loophole. It was just that he was a capable person who could submit more work.

Thinking of this, Fang Yuan already had a detailed plan. He would write a second book for this competition.

It would also be about tomb-robbing.

Moreover, in his previous life, this series of books attracted countless fans, even more so than the previous series, “Candle in the Tomb”.

It was called “The Lost Tomb: Palace of Qixinglu”.

Sakazaka Rion was rather surprised. It had only been a few minutes since they came into the room and he had already thought of an idea?

“What do you wanna write about? You can tell me about it first. I have quite a lot of experience in this area.”

Rion sat cross-legged on the chair ungracefully.

The hem of her white pleated skirt was slightly raised.

It was a scene where most men would inevitably feel his blood pumping.

“Although I haven’t written many novels myself, I’ve written quite a lot of scripts over the past few years and have been a Hollywood scriptwriter. As long as you give me a brief outline, I’ll be able to point out some flaws. You don’t necessarily have to follow all of my suggestions, but at the very least, it’ll certainly improve your previous draft.”

After she said this, she waited for Fang Yuan to come over and kneel before her.

However, Fang Yuan had already gone to the desk.

“There’s no need. I’ll show you after I’m done writing. Women will only affect my writing speed.”

After saying this half-jokingly, Fang Yuan used the memory retrieval capsule to search for the full text of “The Lost Tomb”.

The beginning of “The Lost Tomb” was different from “Candle in the Tomb”.

It started with a third-person narration of a tomb-raiding account fifty years ago. A group of country bumpkins, who called themselves “The Tomb Raiders”, discovered a silk book about the chronicles of tomb-raiding from the Warring States in a tomb in Changsha.

The second chapter then changed to a first-person perspective and jumped to fifty years later. One of the tomb raiders’ descendants, the protagonist, Wu Xie, told the story of a mysterious person who came to him asking about his grandfather’s grave.

Out of curiosity, Wu Xie followed the other tomb raiders to the Palace of Qixinglu to solve the mystery of the silk book. On that journey, he met his friends for life.

They were a solid trio – Wu Xie, Wang Pangzi, and the introverted Zhang Qiling.

..

After figuring out the whole book and seeing that there was no computer in the room, Fang Yuan used the pen and paper on the desk to write.

Rion had a habit of writing on paper.

As a screenwriter, she was used to writing an outline first.

Thus, she was scornful of Fang Yuan’s style of not writing an outline and jumping straight into writing the novel.

How could a novel turn out to be good without an outline to keep him on track?

However, Fang Yuan’s hand never stopped writing.

“Hey, hey, hey, you’re not messing around again, are you?”

Seeing that Fang Yuan refused to respond, Rion simply walked over to him.

She wanted to see what Fang Yuan was scribbling.
