Afterword to the Coming of Death
Inspired by various complex emotions and continuously stimulated by various encounters during this time, Bu Yi wrote this incredible "Death is Coming", which can be described as defying the world's condemnation.
On the cusp of the whole people clamoring and actively participating in elite education, aristocratic education, and early prenatal education, and in the surging tide of some people with ulterior motives vigorously promoting the so-called "national quality education" (the proposal is good, but the taste is not quite right, at least some sell dog meat on the head of a sheep), it is too uninteresting to write such a bloody and strange case caused by excessive education.
But the desire to write this book has been a long time, and now I can't help but put pen to paper and finish it successfully.
The subject of education is actually quite serious and heavy, and it always makes me toss and turn:
I don't think it's possible that every ordinary person has been cultivated into an elite or an aristocracy, and the overall civic quality of this society has improved and leaped. What's more, I also express deep doubts about whether the education model and paranoid thinking of rushing for quick success, competing for quick success, blindly comparing, and unwilling to be left behind can cultivate real elites, aristocrats, or even a large number of qualified citizens.
I have always advocated and embraced civic education, but what I understand as citizenship is: independent personality, the spirit of freedom (as my predecessors have long said). Isn't it?
Nowadays, there are many valid reasons and systems theories to refute my view, and this contemptible person admits that if civic education is equivalent to cramming in disguise, learning early and gaining early, it really does not agree with it, and it is impossible to compliment the claim that it loses at the starting line. The generation that grew up playing with mud, the generation that went to the mountains and went to the countryside to open up the land, there is no shortage of mainstays of today's society, and there is no shortage of outstanding national leaders, how many high-quality and premature educational resources have they received? I secretly speculate that there should be a large group of people who despise this generation of playing with mud from the bottom of their hearts, or why not let their children live a casual and free childhood of playing with mud?
The greed of human nature is especially prominent in the lack of educational resources.
I guess some people will ask, is there really a case like this in the book? Buyi is more concerned about whether there will be one in the future, but it is impossible to say, but he dares to think that the possibility cannot be ruled out.
It's a terrible thing to have a sprout!
Well, the emotion is over, and it's just not unpleasant to vomit -
According to the usual practice, in the afterword, some key questions in the book that have not been explained should be answered, and this postscript is no exception.
First of all, the most confusing thing for everyone must be the age of the catkins.
As we all know, in today's era of high Internet coverage, identity information has already been networked nationwide (I don't remember exactly what year it was completed), and it may be extremely difficult to conceal a person's age. I think that's the case, but there are often some things that are unclear, and some things always have the magic of destroying the withering, such as money; of course, there are very few cities that can operate in the dark!
Speaking from the heart, I impulsively want to write Liu Wu'er as a real only 10 years old, then she is still capable of completing such a big case with a wonderful layout, there is no doubt that the so-called "prodigies" are really as many as cows, and the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which is several times more bullish than Liu Wu'er, may be ready to move. But there are three reasons why I finally chose such a setting that seems to be a snake (not big):
The first is that I don't want the children to be hurt because of one book, even if it's just a little influential, just about 200,000 words (everyone should feel some from Tong Yangyang's rescue, to be honest, the possibility of her being rescued is zero, why did I miscalculate the death toll, of course, because I modified the setting halfway through, and went against the development of the plot to let her return to Zhao).
The second is that because of Zheng Xing's underground love affair with Liu Xu'er, I don't want to tarnish the innocence of the children because of this, and deliberately avoid that they have matured prematurely, so I wrote this deformed relationship as something close to the adult world, so as to avoid some dirty people from thinking about it.
The third is that I always believe and hope that our children, no matter what hardships and injustices they encounter, will not be extreme to such an extent, and will be able to realize the most basic right and wrong in time, and will stop in moderation. Of course, this is a long way to go, and it is the sacred duty that education should be entrusted with.
It's all tears when you talk too much, let's put it first-
Second, there is a lack of sufficient explanation of how the details of the murder in each case were carried out.
If Bu Yi confessed: I haven't figured out how these supernatural killings were done, probably many book friends will send me blades. Yes, the author himself doesn't know how to commit murder, so how can the reader analyze and reason who is the murderer? To be honest, when I first wrote it, it was purely imaginative, and the purpose was to make the murder seem extremely supernatural, and as for how to round it, I will leave it to the end.
As a result, of course, it can't be rounded, so what should I do?
Bu Yi thinks so:
Any kind of murder that is deliberately laid out in advance and intended to be simulated as a supernatural murder is not impossible to complete. In particular, there are some murders in the book, but the process is not really important, because those processes are not fatal, just to attract attention. For example, in the case of Tong Minghai, what finally led to Tong Minghai's death was actually the water column of the music fountain, and to accomplish this, it was only necessary to turn on the music fountain at the most appropriate time. In other words, there can be countless ways for Tong Minghai to fall into the fountain square, and it happens to be presented in the book, I explain it like this, I don't know if you can accept it.
To put it bluntly, these murders are called murders by heaven, making full use of the environment and conditions at the time, and committing murders on the spot, with a clear goal, that is, to kill them alive, half man-made, half providential.
This can only be explained, otherwise I am afraid that the description will become darker and darker.
Taking a breath, writing is laborious, and it is not easy to explain.
Again, it's about the evil consequences that may be caused by excessive education, such as the problem of campus atmosphere, the problem of teacher morality, the problem of cold violence, the trend of commercialization of education, the tendency of parents to follow the trend and compare, etc., due to the limitations of the plot arrangement, it is impossible to blindly seek full blame in a short space, and it must not be difficult for everyone to make up for it by themselves.
For children from relatively well-to-do families, they may not have a deep understanding of it, or they may even benefit from it (of course, this benefit may come at a cost in the future);
Buyi can't imagine what kind of way the children who have spent years in the white eyes will take revenge on the society and the teachers in the future, and what kind of ugly image the teachers see in their immature and translucent eyes, thinking about it is extremely terrifying!
The future belongs to them, today's teachers may become old men and grandmothers, and the children of the future will become teachers, or people with greater abilities, what will they inherit? Buyi uses a relatively extreme case to depict this incident, which may be a bit alarmist, but the real purpose is to sincerely hope that such a thing will never happen.
The premise, of course, is: every teacher, every parent, every education official, and school leader who is caught in the whirlpool of business, don't blindly follow the trend and be sober.
A hundred years of tree people, most people will not live a hundred years later, and it is our favorite children who live to that time, so accumulate some yin virtue.
Okay, we're not, so bless yourself!
Finally, in the end, then we have to go back and talk about the typos and sentences in this record, which is very helpless, extraordinary helplessness, cloth clothes also live in capital, and they can't help themselves.
For the poor reward for full attendance, Bu Yi can be said to have worked hard, and these hundreds of dollars are really hard to earn. Not only to write the outline, but also to make up enough words, but also to complete the logic, it is very difficult - although later intermittently changed some typos and sick sentences, but I am afraid that there are more left, on the one hand, please understand the book friends, on the other hand, it is still continuing to revise, but the time may be a little longer. However, it is absolutely impossible to keep them forever, and when I have my hands free, I will try to change them all at once.
Please rest assured, seeing these obvious flaws, Buyi is even more uncomfortable than you, and regrets their existence and hates them.
Let's end the Q&A, otherwise there are too many words and it is quite expensive.
What's nextโ
Preview: The next record of the butterfly mystery case, Bu Yi wants to write a little white cool article, for no other reason, that is, the first four records are too tired and too laborious, I really want to write something that does not go through the brain, and I doodle willfully, and strive to write wherever I want, the more straightforward the better;
The mean-tongued cloth clothes will say a few nice words-
The new year is coming, I wish the majority of book friends a prosperous work and life, and I also hope that everyone will look at every change in the tide of history rationally and have a pair of sharp eyes to perceive the truth. In addition, on New Year's Day in 2018, the fifth record of "Butterfly Mystery Case" will be officially uploaded, so stay tuned!
Looking ahead, a person's life will always be beautiful, even if most of what is written by Bu Yi is ugly, it can't hide the existence of truth, goodness and beauty at all.
Fellow Daoists of Beiting, come on!
Good night, everyone!
