[The next planet visited by the Little Prince lives with an alcoholic.] Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The visit to this planet was very short, but it made the little prince very sad.

A drunkard sat there silently, with a pile of wine bottles in front of him, some containing wine and some empty, and the little prince couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?"

"I drink. ”

He replied gloomily.

The little prince asked again, "Why do you drink?"

The drunkard replied, "To forget, to forget my shame......"

The little prince was already a little pitiful to the drunkard, and he really wanted to save the drunkard in front of him who looked very down, so he stepped forward and asked with concern, "What are you ashamed of?"

"I'm ashamed that I drink. ”

After the drunkard finished speaking, he never spoke again.

The little prince left bewildered, and during the journey, he said to himself, "These adults are indeed strange. ”]

Lu Yuer smiled bitterly, remembering that she confessed to Luoyang at the beginning, but was rejected, and she borrowed wine more than once to eliminate her sorrows during that time, and the result was just like what Li Bai wrote in her poem: raising a glass to eliminate sorrow is even more sorrowful......

Also like the little prince said.

These adults are really strange.

After a slight pause, Lu Yu'er continued to look down, before arriving on Earth, the little prince had visited a total of six small planets, each of which had only one inhabitant, in order: the king, the vain man, the drunkard, the merchant, the lamplighter, and the geographer.

King.

Drinker.

Admirers of vanity.

After reading these things, Lu Yuer continued to read the stories of merchants, lamplighters, and geographers, and as a result, the next three stories were similar to the previous ones.

――――――――

Let's look at the merchants first, the merchants are busy.

[I've only been disturbed three times in the fifty-four years I've lived on this planet.] The first time was twenty-two years ago, when a beetle came running out of nowhere to disturb me. It made a terrible noise that made me four mistakes in one account. The second time, eleven years ago, was a rheumatism attack because of my lack of exercise. I don't have the time to hang out. I'm a serious person. Right now...... This is the third time! My calculation is 510 million ......]

Yes, the merchant is a miser.

He only cared about how much property he owned, and his eyes were always on the numbers in the ledger, which made his life always busy, and he didn't even have the time to flick cigarette ashes.

The little prince found him bored.

Therefore, when he left this planet, the little prince kept saying "It's strange to be an adult", ignoring life itself for the sake of some meaningless numbers, which is of course strange.

――――――――

Continue, this is the story of a lamplighter.

["I'm doing a terrible job, it used to be reasonable, turn off the lights in the morning, light the lights at night, and the rest of the time, I rest during the day and sleep at night......"

"Well, then the order changed, didn't it?"

The man who lit the lamp said, "The order has not been changed, and the misery is here!" For some reason, the planet is turning faster and faster every year, but the order has not been changed. ”

"The result?" asked the little prince.

"As a result, now, the planet rotates once a minute, and I don't even have a second of rest, because I turn on the lights once a minute and turn them off once a minute!"

It's a planet where a minute is a day!

The lamplighter, on the other hand, is a faithful believer who is bound by rules.

He is a model of conformism, no matter how great the objective situation has changed, he does not dare to deviate from the "law of the ancestors" in the slightest, even if the little prince gives advice, he is not willing to accept it.

However, the end of the story of the lamplighter is a bit meaningful:

[What the little prince did not have the courage to admit was that he was nostalgic for this admirable star, especially since there were 1,440 sunsets every twenty-four hours!]

The little prince is very lonely......

He didn't want to admit the loneliness of his heart, he loved sunsets, he loved the narrow planet, there were 1,444 sunsets every twenty-four hours.

――――――

Finally arrived the geographer.

[I am not an explorer.] I don't have a single explorer. Geographers don't count cities, rivers, mountains, oceans, deserts. Geographers are important and can't run around. He can't leave his office. But he could meet the explorer in his office. He questioned the explorers and recorded their memories. If he thinks that the recollection of one of the explorers is interesting, then the geographer investigates the character of the explorer. ]

The geographer is a pedantic scholar who deceives the world.

He never left his study, believing that the exploration of cities, rivers, mountains, seas, and deserts was the business of explorers, not geographers.

However, the geographer pointed out the way for the little prince: "The planet of the earth has a great reputation. ”

Under the guidance of a geographer, the little prince ends up on Earth, a vast planet that is the world of eccentric adults with countless kings, vanity lovers, drunkards, merchants, lamplighters, and geographers!

......

"Such a childlike and childlike tone, is it really the Theking teacher who wrote "No One Survives" and "White Night Walking", is it really the national writer Luoyang who can write martial arts and play science fiction......

Lu Yuer was completely convinced.

Although the previous "Fairy Tale King" was also a fairy tale, the kind of tone that adults can imitate, but now this "The Little Prince" is really from the perspective of a child, showing all kinds of unhappiness in the adult world from the perspective of the little prince.

This kind of writing is unheard of!

However, I have to admit that when the little prince exclaimed that sentence [These adults are really weird], the strength was very strong!

Eventually, the little prince left the earth.

Because in the world of adults, without his love, without his care, without his home, he wants to return to his own small planet, where is a warm home worthy of his nostalgia......

It's a good book.

After reading it, Lu Yuer came to this conclusion.

At the same time, she also feels that "The Little Prince" is not a fairy tale at all, although the words are a little childish and looks like a child's tone, but this book, throughout the story, is the story of the adult world.

"None of that matters. ”

"I can't wait to translate this work. ”

Lu Yuer's eyes burst out with bright light, and she re-turned to the first business of "The Little Prince", the last time she was so excited was when she just got the translation task of "The Devotion of Suspect X".
