Chapter 150: Richard Parker [Five More Requests for Subscription]
The biggest problem as a student is to go to class, even if Zhang Chu wants to read it now, but unfortunately he doesn't have time.
"System, is there anything I can do to give me a little more personal time?"
If it goes on like this, he has to go to class, write homework, and read the original work, when will he be able to write it, Zhang Chu had to find a system to see if there is a solution.
"The host can change the time flow rate with reputation points, and the current time flow rate in the system is the same as the outside world, and can be accelerated up to 10 times. 100,000 reputation per hour!"
Zhang Chu is worried that so many prestige points are not exhausted, it is not bad to watch the original book or adapted movies in the system, an hour outside the world, and 10 hours inside the system, which is quite time-saving.
He looked at his watch and said, "Help me exchange for an hour." ”
100,000 prestige is not a problem at all for Zhang Chu, who is now wealthy, and his previous speech at the opening ceremony made him gain millions of prestige points.
The only pity is that the speech of the young man China is not complete, if he says the complete content, then it is estimated that the world will have to question it, after all, the history of the two worlds is similar, but not the same.
Zhang Chu, who was worried about the lack of time, can now slowly check the content of the original book, watch the movie first and then watch it, and he has a clear understanding of the whole story.
The whole story is narrated in the form of memories of Pie in middle age, Pie is an Indian, the family ran a zoo when he was a teenager, when he was 16 years old, because of the change in life, in order to make ends meet, Pai's father decided to sell the zoo, and at the same time transport the animals inside to Canada for sale.
The family sails on a cruise ship to immigrate to Canada, but on the way to the sea, they encounter a major storm and the cruise ship sinks, taking Pie's family with him.
In the midst of the storm, Pie climbs into a lifeboat and is saved by hyenas, orangutans, zebras, and an adult Bengal tiger he named Richard Parker!
For the next 227 days at sea, Pie spent time with the animals in cramped lifeboats, witnessing the brutality of the hyenas eating zebras, then the female orangutans, and then the hyenas being eaten by Richard Parker.
He had to fight with Richard Parker in a desperate situation, fighting each other and relying on each other, and finally coexisted peacefully.
Along the way, they experienced cannibal islands, witnessed fantastic events such as giant squid eating whales, and learned that the lifeboat drifted to the beach and Pie was rescued by fishermen, while Richard Parker walked into the jungle without looking back!
Because the whole story is so fantastical that the investigators of the insurance claims will be suspicious of it, Pie tells another version of the story about the cook, the sailor, the mother, and himself.
This story is completely different from the previous sun-filled sea adventure stories, as terrifying as hell, sending angry murderers to kill their mothers and drift through the sea by eating human flesh.
The two stories make the whole book full of mystery, and the open-ended ending makes the reader and the audience scramble to discuss which is the real one.
After reading for ten hours, Zhang Chu was a little dizzy, so he went directly to the bathroom to wash his face with water to refresh himself.
"Next time, I still have to take a good rest, although the speed of time has changed, but the capacity of my head has not changed. ”
This is just for Zhang Chu to read the swallowing of dates, and then he has to combine the full text and the religious culture of India to slowly analyze and understand.
When Zhang Chu curiously searched for "Youth School" on the Internet, there were no search results, which made him feel a lot more relieved.
But when he searched for the name Richard Parker, he found many results, and this person actually existed!
"It turns out that the name Tiger Richard Parker also has a meaning. Zhang Chu muttered to himself, he didn't know the background at all.
Richard Parker was a real man, and during the Great Voyage of 1844, a British ship named "Wood Rhinoceros" sank near the Cape of Good Hope in Africa, and the crew fled to the only lifeboat.
Huge waves, ferocious sharks, and a shortage of food and fresh water challenge the crew's survival limits.
Of the four crew members, 17-year-old Richard Parker had no sailing experience, and when he fell ill and fell into a coma, the other three worked together to kill Richard Parker and feed on the corpse in order to survive, and finally rescued him.
Therefore, the tiger is named after this name, and then linked to a similar plot, and the metaphor is naturally obvious.
This Bengal tiger is a symbol of human bestiality and evil, and the name Richard Parker is often associated with drifting, cannibalism, and cannibalism in the Western context.
"There are so many details in this, it seems that carelessness is not good, and we have to study it carefully. ”
When he first watched the movie, he didn't think about why this tiger was not called Peter Parker, but Richard Parker, and he didn't figure everything out until now!
Seeing that class time was approaching, Zhang Chu quickly picked up his backpack, then rented a small yellow car outside the community, and quickly rushed towards the teaching building.
……
"You can't be asleep, are you?"
Anmi looked at Zhang Chu, who was panting, and asked in surprise.
They came to the classroom early to take their seats, but unfortunately they could only sit in the middle of the room, and the front row was already occupied by others in advance.
Zhang Chu just parked the car, climbed four flights of stairs, and then sat down to hear the preparation bell ring, he said with palpitations: "I forgot the time while reading, fortunately there is a shared bicycle outside, otherwise I would really be late." ”
Sun Ruiqi suddenly said on the side: "Otherwise, let's go buy a bicycle tonight, it's very inconvenient to have a car." ”
There are special carports for parking under the dormitory building and the teaching building, but car theft is also rampant.
"Yes, I want to buy a dead fly, it's so handsome! I wanted to buy it when I was in high school, but unfortunately my family wouldn't let me. Anmi said excitedly, he has been strictly controlled since he was a child, and now he is finally out of the cage, of course he wants to make his own decisions.
Zhang Chu couldn't help but laugh on the side: "Dead Fly, Dead Fly, that is, when the person dies, the car flies out." You might as well buy a cheaper car, or it may be stolen in a few days. ”
The campus of Yan University is open to the public, and car thieves were once the most hated by Yan students, and many new cars and good cars were stolen.
An Mi took advantage of the fact that the teacher had not yet entered the classroom, he pursed his mouth, "Okay, let's go to the West Gate of Tsinghua University to buy it at night, it is said that there are a lot of cars sold there, and there is a warranty." ”
"I'll talk about it after class. ”
