Chapter 391: Human Nature and Animal Nature

To understand the finale of the Youth School, you must first understand the finale written by the author.

Of course, you may think that the finale written by the author is not the real finale?

No, sometimes the finale written by the author is not necessarily the finale.

Or sometimes the author writes the finale, but people don't understand what the author means by the finale.

Or, even though the author wrote the finale, he just cheated you.

The first to stand up and analyze "Youth Pi" was David David, the screenwriter of Galaxy Films.

Although David had already learned the finale in advance under Huang Yifan's prompting. However, when David reads the Life of Pi finale, he realizes that the real finale is not so simple.

According to HYF, the Juvenile Pi finale is that there are no animals on the ship, all people.

These people are Buddhists, cooks, mothers, and boys.

The cook kills the Buddhist, then his mother, and the boy Pi eventually kills the cook as well.

So, Tiger is the Life of Pi.

However, the ending of this story is not as simple as killing and being killed.

You know, although Pi's fantasy drift has a lot of practical significance, he still belongs to the wilderness survival type. So, whether they are killing or being killed, their essence is to survive. Obviously, killing someone doesn't mean surviving. In order to survive, there can only be one way. The way to do this is to find food.

In the vast sea, there are no tools, and there is no food.

Even if some of the chefs in the Youth School use the fishing method, this method may not always catch fish.

When there is no food, and the environment is pushing people to the brink, a scary scene appears.

Eating human flesh.

Yes.

The first to start eating human flesh was the cook.

The cook not only fished with the meat of the Buddhists, he also ate the meat of the Buddhists.

And why did you start eating human flesh in the first place, because, in addition to the cook, there are people who eat human flesh.

This person is the main character, that is, the life of Pi.

Although the protagonist does not say that he ate other people's meat, the protagonist says, "I dealt with him like a cook to a Buddhist." Obviously, the cook didn't mean killing him when dealing with the Buddhists, if that was the case, he just said kill him. At the same time, the amputation and death of a Buddhist is not considered homicide, but only an accident. However, eating the meat of Buddhists is clearly not an accident.

Man is a man after all, and man is not an animal.

Man has humanity, and man does not eat the flesh of his companions.

If you eat the flesh of your companions, what is the difference between a man and an animal?

This is what the protagonist says.

However, the reason why this work is classic is that what the protagonist says is not necessarily true.

When the protagonist kills the cook, the protagonist also eats the cook's meat.

However, the real ending is not just a sentence, we also have to figure out why the protagonist eats the meat of the cook.

You might say that this seems understandable. Because the cook kills his mother, the protagonist then kills the cook and eats the cook's flesh in order to avenge his mother.

This may seem reasonable, but on closer inspection, it doesn't make sense at all.

First: The protagonist is a believer in Buddhism, Christianity, and ****** religion, well, although the protagonist cannot be regarded as a very devout believer, but at least he is more kind and humane than ordinary people. And usually the protagonist doesn't even eat meat, only vegetarian. Although there is no way to eat fish in order to survive in the future, eating fish and eating people are two different things.

Second: Although the cook kills the protagonist's mother, the cook does not eat the meat of the protagonist's mother. This is the most critical point, so even if the protagonist hates the cook for killing his mother, the most the protagonist has to do is to avenge his mother, he can kill the cook, but it has nothing to do with eating the cook's meat. Under normal logic, the idea of eating chef's meat will not arise.

Therefore, combining the two points, the protagonist has no reason to eat human flesh.

So, what is the reason for him to eat human flesh?

The truth was officially announced at this time.

Survive.

Is there a difference between humans and animals?

It has been said before that there is a difference.

Animals have only animal nature, and human beings have human nature.

Human nature and animal nature are the biggest differences between humans and animals.

However, let's not forget that humans are inherently animals.

When survival is put to the test, humanity will degenerate into bestiality.

Although there are some unpleasant things about animal nature, it is human instinct.

No matter what living thing is, even if it is human, his instinct will stop at nothing to survive.

As long as you can survive, you can do anything.

When the protagonist Pi is dying of hunger, Pi chooses to eat the cook's meat.

Of course, in fact, when making the decision to eat human flesh, Juvenile Pi still experienced a lot of struggles.

The protagonist of this sentence also said: Sometimes I am happy because of the presence of "Richard" and do not even want him to die. If he dies, then I will survive alone in despair, and despair is a more terrible enemy than a tiger...... In fact, this sentence not only gives us a metaphor that the protagonist is a tiger, but also gives the protagonist an answer to why he eats human flesh.

The analysis of the screenwriter "David" can be said to have opened a window for the interpretation of the youth pie, and when the new analysis came out, a group of readers were shocked by this story again at this moment.

"Originally, I thought the story of Pi was complicated enough, but I didn't expect it to be even more complicated. ”

"I'm convinced. After reading David's analysis, I realized that I had read Life Pi word for word, but I didn't understand the true meaning of the story at all. ”

"That's where the author HYF excels, you can think of this story as a wilderness survival story. Just like the protagonist says to the writer at the end, do you like tigers or do you like not have tigers, and the writer answers that there are tigers. Now think about it, compared to the real story, how charming the plot with the tiger is. ”

Many readers continued to talk about it after seeing the analysis.

However, David didn't know that he thought that his new analysis really told the story of Life Pi. But even he didn't expect that when his new analysis came out, more doubts were dug up by countless readers.

"If the cook ate the meat of the Buddhists, then did the chef eat the meat of the protagonist's mother?"

"Why did the protagonist's mother slap the cook at the beginning, but the cook didn't fight back?"

"One more question, where did the protagonist's dad go?"

"Yes, and the protagonist's brother, are they written in the front and then there is no in the back?"

"What does Cannibal Island mean, and what do the animals, flowers, and teeth on it represent?"

"Why didn't the tiger look back when he parted from the protagonist, but went straight into the mountains and forests without a trace of reluctance. ”

At this time, countless readers no longer regard Life Pi as a fantasy adventure work. After a series of truths were revealed, a series of readers made astonishing discoveries. Every sentence, every plot, and every action in the whole novel is not casually said or written, but has another metaphor. In addition to making readers admire HYF's invincible writing skills again, these metaphors also raise more questions.

And these questions seem to be even more fascinating. (To be continued.) )
