Chapter 17 Shaking-tailed Rabbit

"The Twelve Kingdoms" is a masterpiece of the clay writer Ono.

The setting of this novel is completely different from the sword and magic novels that were popular at that time--

In the world of the Twelve Kingdoms, around the Yellow Sea where the gods live, there are twelve countries: Qing, Zou, Fan, Liu, Yan, Gong, Cai, Qiao, Dai, Shun, Fang and Lian.

All countries have a simple monarchy without surprise. Each country has a king who governs the country and a unicorn who assists the king. The spirit beast Kirin accepted the apocalypse and elected the king. The king accepted the fate and obtained the immortality. At the cost, the king who accepts his destiny will carry the whole country with the unicorn who chose him until the end of his life.

The king must bear the responsibility of governing the country, but benevolence alone cannot govern the country and cope with geopolitics, so sometimes the king must make choices that are not merciful to some people... This involves a problem. Once the necessary "degree" is exceeded, no matter what the king's original intention is, he will "lose." In other words, the king lost his destiny and violated God's will.

If the king loses his destiny against God's will, the unicorn who exchanged the covenant with him will be seriously ill, which is "lost". If Wang Ruo realizes that he has violated God's will and suddenly realizes that he will return to morality, then Kirin's illness will be cured, otherwise Kirin is likely to die.

At this time, there will be a very serious problem: the king's immortality is given by Kirin, so when Kirin dies, that is... the time of Wang's death.

Of course, whether the king and the unicorn are good or bad, the people of the twelve countries will hope that their country will have a king in their own country, because only when the king exists, the country will be blessed by the unicorn, the weather will be smooth, and the country will be prosperous and the people will be safe. Once the king dies or lose his way, the country will soon run rampant with demons, and natural disasters will continue... ...

In a word, the king is the key to the country, and the fate of the king is closely related to Kirin.

This is the basis of the unique political and world view of the Twelve Kingdoms.

There are many interesting settings. For example, the citizens of the twelve countries do not reproduce naturally, but are born from the fruits of a tree called "limu"...

These world views and settings have fascinated Meng Zhe for a long time. After careful reading, Meng Zhe found that the names of various officials, various etiquette systems, strategies for governing the country, and even the setting of the whole world in the Records of the Twelve Kingdoms have a lot to do with the Confucian classic Zhou Li.

Many of the demon images in the Records of the Twelve Kingdoms are from the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and even Ono in Romance of the Gods is extracted by beauty.

Then, all of the above were combined by Ono, and finally created this completely strange, but it seems to be traceable - the fairy power replaces science as the source of all things, and the fairy fantasy world is completely different from the wild medieval fantasy world.

Of course, these are just the information about the world view of the Twelve Kingdoms. As for the story itself... Ono Yumei first described a girl named Yoko Nakajima, who was selected as the king by "Qingqi" who came through time and space, and then was transmitted to the world of the Twelve Kingdoms and gradually grew up from a cowardly ordinary girl. In the end, I carried the 'Qingwang' of the whole country...

Following this line, Ono couldn't help but describe many characters with different identities but connected with each other. In the end, these characters supported the whole huge world.

In the whole story, Meng Zhe felt that there were many classic plots.

For example--

The shy 'Qing Qi', who was shy, pushed the golden mountain and fell the jade pillar for the people of Qingguo, ignored the stunned eyes of the people around him, and knelt down to the cowardly girl who was not liked by everyone.

He said, "Obey the order of heaven to meet the Lord, never leave the front of the emperor, do not disobey the edict, and swear to be loyal."

For example--

The dizzy 'Yanqi' Liutai, on the bloody battlefield, leaned down and knelt down to the son of the broken lord who was willing to die for the people.

He asked, "Do you want a country?" ......

Meng Zhe has always felt that these plots are vivid and unforgettable.

But it is also because of this that Meng Zhe also knows that the Records of the Twelve Kingdoms is actually difficult to control. The huge world view needs to be supported by extensive knowledge. Those characters with their own characteristics do not have rich life experience, and they can't come out at all.

So, when Meng Zhe saw the comic NAME of "Legend of the Twelve Kingdoms" given to him by his sister-in-law Jiang Xiyao, although he thought of "The Twelve Kingdoms", he did not think that his future wife and sister-in-law would suddenly come up with such an awesome idea under his "butterfly effect".

Meng Zhe quickly figured out the reason why his sister-in-law gave him the original animation NAME - after watching the first few words of Meng Zhe's "Dream Eater", the two big loli of the Jiang family were inspired and wanted to form a cartoonist group. Even Jiang Xiyao racked her brains to come up with a pen name that she felt very meaningful: 'Shaking Tail Rabbit'.

According to the plot in Dream Eater, after forming a group of cartoonists, it is necessary to make short works and submit them to the editor of Tianjiao Club for review.

But if you take your work to other editors of Tianjiao Club, even Jiang Xiyao will feel embarrassed... If she is rejected by the editor, how shameful it is!

Therefore, Meng Zhe, a 'famous cartoonist' who has serialized three works in "Anime Boy" at the same time, and Meng Zhe, who is also the painting instructor of himself and his sister, has become the only candidate for reviewers in Jiang Xiyao's heart.

Jiang Xiyao's sister Jiang Weiyi naturally agreed without hesitation, so Meng Zhe saw the Legend of the Twelve Kingdoms co-created by the two sisters.

After figuring out everything, Meng Zhe finally began to watch the original animation NAME "Legend of the Twelve Kingdoms" drawn by them under the eyes of Jiang Xiyao and Jiang Wei.

Meng Zhe looked very carefully, from the character setting to the tone of the dialogue. He looked down word by word, and then he understood

How to say this comic script created by Jiang Wei and set by Jiang Xiyao... Well, to sum up, it is the story of a subjugated princess who lost her country and traveled in twelve magical countries to escape the pursuit and find opportunities to restore the country.

The similarity with the Twelve Kingdoms is that the twelve countries set by the two maids are also similar to the vassal states in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Escape from the pursuit and the restoration of the country, these two parallel lines that push the story forward, in this era and the age of the two maids, are also excellent settings.

However, after the NAME in the first episode, Meng Zhe easily found the shortcomings of this NAME - thin! Both the protagonist and the positive and negative characters on the stage are too thin!

The two maids still don't know how to infinitely enlarge a certain feature of the character, so that the reader can easily distinguish who is who.

Secondly, several characters set by Jiang Xiyao... are too featureless!

Comics, a very important point, is that the characteristics of each character must be clearly separated. If you can't do it, then at least the main characters should be painted so that readers will not produce 'these characters, except for clothing and hair, look exactly the same!' This kind of idea.

In this regard, Jiang Xiyao is under Meng Zhe's ** and wrong professor. Although she does not draw all the characters into the same face, she is still not enough to highlight the characteristics of each character.

After considering the sentence, Meng Zhe commented, "In general, the idea of this NAME is not bad! No..."

"Yeah--! Sister, I said that our legend of the twelve kingdoms must be the best! I said that it must be serialized in "Anime Boy"!" Before Meng Zhe said anything, Jiang Xiyao, the little girl, had already cheered excitedly.

It's easy for Jiang Xiyao to calm down. When Meng Zhe was waiting to continue to comment, the door of the studio was pushed open--
