Chapter 482: Horror Adaptation
Lin Zaishan continued to talk with great interest: "The "garden" in the second sentence of this song also has a deep meaning - the sister carries the doll on her back and walks to the garden to see the flowers - is the flower here what the "sister" wants the "doll" to see, or does the "sister" want to see it herself? The answer is obviously the former, if she wants to see it herself, then there is no need for her to bring a "dead doll". Therefore, the "flower" here actually refers to the "flower dedicated to the deceased", and the garden full of such flowers is yes, this refers to the "cemetery", the resting place of the dead. ”
The Sochimilco region, where they are now located, is the largest flower market in Mexico and all of Latin America. Doll Island also has a lot of wild flowers, blooming in the cold and bright.
Lin Zaishan deliberately said that the flowers in the nursery rhyme are flowers dedicated to the deceased, and also said that the garden where this kind of flowers is planted is a cemetery, which makes Li Xiaoni and Li Yani can't help but imagine Doll Island as a natural cemetery! When they think about it, the island they are stepping on is even more terrifying!
Even Zhao Hongguo, who guessed that Lin Zaishan was deliberately scaring Li Xiaoni, was a little encircled when he heard this, the atmosphere inside and outside the wooden house was very weird, and when Lin Zaishan was telling the story, the hanging doll hanging at the door kept swaying in the wind, as if he was very excited.
Zhao Hongguo was the closest to the hanging doll, he glanced at the doll coldly, and then listened to Lin Zaishan talking nonsense but it was a serious story, and his heart began to tremble - is it possible, is what Lin Zaishan is telling true?
Li Xiaoni frowned and asked Lin Zaishan: "Uncle, this is all your imagination, right?" ”
Lin Zaishan admitted: "Yes, these are my associations, but don't you think my associations are justified?" The top of the change. Killers, after killing people, will deliberately leave a piece of evidence for people to push back on his crime, and they enjoy this sense of accomplishment of playing with others. There are some songwriters who also like to hide mysteries in their songs, leaving flaws for everyone to analyze, and I think this song "Sister Carrying a Doll" is such a work. ”
"Isn't it......"
Li Xiaoni wanted to refute it, but she couldn't find a reason to refute it, listening to Lin Zaishan say this, the lyrics of this song are indeed quite strange and very unreasonable.
Lin Zaishan continued: "You listen to me tell you, this song not only has mysteries hidden in the lyrics, but also hidden mysteries in the internal logic. Why does a doll that died in the first or second sentences come back to call her mother in the third sentence? It's actually quite simple, because the lyricist uses the technique of interpolation here, that is, the correct order in which the story of the song takes place is 3→4→1→2. The doll cried for her mother during the killing, and the crow witnessed the murder and made a terrible cry in the tree, after which the murderer carried the doll's body on his back and took it to the cemetery for burial. ”
Li Xiaoni couldn't cry or laugh, the more Lin Zaishan reasoned, the more bizarre it became, but what he was talking about was the Tao, it was difficult for people to believe what he said, and it was difficult to believe what he said.
"You're thinking a little too much, aren't you?" Because Lin Zaishan's reasoning is too imaginary, Li Xiaoni no longer feels how terrifying it is, but feels that Lin Zaishan's ideas are too individual.
"Don't you think my analysis makes sense?" Lin Zaishan asked Li Xiaoni with a smile, he didn't stop rummaging in his hands, he was telling Li Xiaoni a story while flipping through the doll.
"I think you're talking a bit far-fetched." Li Xiaoni and Lin Zaishan discussed, her courage gradually grew, and she also helped Lin Zaishan rummage through the corners to find the doll.
"It's a bit far-fetched, but when we are faced with some works, we must boldly imagine it and boldly analyze the author's creative intentions, so that it is possible to gain more insights and inspiration. Take this nursery rhyme as an example, you listen to it as if it were a normal nursery rhyme, don't think about it, no problem, it's just an ordinary nursery rhyme. But if you think more and analyze the inner logic of this song, you can get more interesting inspiration. Although these inspirations are a bit scary, don't you find them interesting to analyze? ”
Li Xiaoni nodded helplessly and agreed, she finally knew why Lin Zaishan was so inspired now, this brother usually has nothing to do, he always thinks about it! No wonder his creative ideas are so open!
After listening to Lin Zaishan's words, Li Yani was also even more impressed by Lin Zaishan. Lin Zaishan is known as a "super genius", which is not only due to his talent, but also his unique thinking, which is also very praiseworthy!
"No, it won't! I've found it again! ”
Li Xiaoni inadvertently bent down and lifted a piece of cloth, and there was actually a box printed with the golden whistle of "Extreme World" hidden underneath!
This is exactly the box that holds the Olympic dolls!
Lin Zaishan came over and opened the box with Li Xiaoni, which contained a yellow Olympic doll! No duplicates, they've already found two!
"You're in good luck today! I can't find it, you can find it as soon as you look for it. Lin Zaishan said with a sigh.
"Haha, your attention is focused on the horror story, and you didn't really look for it." Li Xiaoni smiled and complained about Lin Zaishan.
"I'm looking for it very seriously. But I'm also very serious about analyzing the song, I haven't finished telling you yet, this nursery rhyme, in my opinion, it's not so simple. ”
"Haven't you finished yet?" Li Xiaoni was slightly stunned.
"Of course, I'm just starting to analyze it."
Lin Zaishan took Li Xiaoni and others out of the wooden house, and as soon as they came out, they heard the repeated singing of the Zhang sisters.
……
My sister is carrying a doll on her back~
Walk to the garden to see the flowers~
The doll cried and called her mother~
The birds in the trees laughed haha~
……
I don't know why, the second daughter's singing voice sounds a little trembling, which makes the artistic conception of this song ferment even more weird on this terrifying doll island.
Through the singing of the Zhang sisters, Lin Zaishan continued to scare Li Xiaoni: "Don't you think, there must be a cruel and bloody truth hidden behind this nursery rhyme." You can think about why the murderer's "sister" buried her after the infanticide. And why did the lyricist call the murderer "sister"? ”
Li Xiaoni and Li Yani listened very incomprehensibly, in the analysis of Lin Zaishan's strange thinking, it was difficult for them to interject, and it was not easy to keep up with Lin Zaishan's thinking.
Lin Zaishan continued to analyze: "The funeral is a special ritual, which has the meaning of remembering the deceased, if it is an ordinary killer, he will not miss the object killed by him, so this murderer may have some degree of relationship with the killed doll." Furthermore, the word "sister" has many meanings, first, it indicates that the murderer was a woman. In addition, the word "sister" is often used to describe young, young and underage women. On a deeper level, the word "sister" is also often used as a substitute for color. Workers in the entertainment industry, like hotel ladies. Thinking of this, the identity of the murderer may have been revealed. ”
Li Xiaoni was stunned when she heard it, how could Lin Zaishan imagine the sister in the nursery rhyme as a hotel lady? What is this road number? That's too extreme!
Li Yani was also embarrassed to listen to Lin Zaishan's analysis, but since Lin Zaishan had already analyzed this, they had to follow Lin Zaishan's train of thought.
Lin Zaishan changed his words and said: "There is another question here, if the lyricist only wants to show the idea of "dead doll", why does he have to use "foreign" doll? What about iron dolls, wooden dolls, stone dolls, or dead dolls? The question lies in the word "doll", why is this doll a "foreign" doll? ”
Li Xiaoni replied with a smile: "Because dolls are foreign!" Just like the foreign fire, foreign cars, and foreign people that people talked about in the past, it was foreign things that came to China, so the word 'foreign' was added. Many people call dolls dolls. ”
"Not necessarily, there were dolls in ancient China, and I didn't call them dolls. The use of dolls in this song illustrates the fact that the protagonist of this story is related to foreign things. If you look at my previous analysis, the context of the matter has basically been sorted out. ”
Lin Zaishan pondered his thoughts for a while, and told Li Xiaoni the truth of the whole story: "The protagonist of this story, 'sister', should be a young woman who sells her life as a business, and once received a foreign man a long time ago, maybe she doesn't have much impression of this man, but she is just one of the many benefactors." However, after trading with this foreign man, this girl became pregnant, and after ten months of hard work, she gave birth to a blonde and blue-eyed baby, "This is a mixed-race boy...... The woman knew in her heart, not to mention that she was too young, or the hardships of raising a child as a dusty woman, the appearance of this child alone would make this society reject her as much as possible. You must know that the time when this song was written was in the forties and fifties, when the social atmosphere was still relatively conservative and depressing, and this child was born as a mixed-race child, and he would be discriminated against, excluded, and miserable for the rest of his life. As a mother, she never wants her child to suffer, but it is still her child...... The woman hesitated for a long, long time, and the child had grown to the age of babbling, and the woman finally couldn't stand the pressure from the outside world and decided to make a break for the child. ”
The more Lin Zaishan talks about it, the more bizarre it becomes, the original author wrote this song "My Sister Carries a Doll", it is impossible to hide the truth like Lin Zaishan said, but Lin Zaishan fermented the story of this bizarre and tortuous Fengyue woman from this simple children's song, but it makes Li Xiaoni, including Li Yani, feel very attractive, they are patient and willing to listen to Lin Zaishan continue to talk.
Lin Zaishan vividly told the essence of the story: "On a dark and windy night, the woman took the child to a wilderness, and rows of night crows stared at the mother and son silently with their wings curled. The woman put the child down, and then went crazy and grabbed the child's weak neck with both hands, and the child struggled and cried out in pain and helplessness, shouting to the murderer in front of him, "Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom, Mom...... Mom'......" The cry gradually stopped, and the same gradually disappeared was the child's breathing and heartbeat, and in the silence of the night, the crows' mournful wails were piercing, and the faint but not stopping, the dripping sound from the woman's eyes to the child's cheek, was so clear. ”
A cold wind blew, and the ghost dolls hanging in the trees let out a "quack" laugh again, as if the story of Lin Zaishan had told their hearts. Driven by the demons they can't let go, they want to break free from the shell of the old doll and truly release their fear and anger.
Li Xiaoni listened to Lin Zaishan talk about this orgasm, and she felt uncomfortable again, she whispered to Lin Zaishan: "Uncle, don't deliberately scare us, the surrounding environment is already terrible." ”
"I'm not deliberately scaring you, I think it's exciting to hear my sister sing this song "Sister Carrying a Doll" in such an environment, and I have a great desire to create! Do you think, if you think of this song as I want it to be, will it sound more emotional? ”
With the singing of the Zhang sisters as the background, Lin Zaishan preached to Li Xiaoni more and more intensely: "After killing the child, the woman carried the child's cold, no longer lifeless corpse, and walked slowly in the grassy cemetery, humming gentle lullabies and nursery rhymes in her mouth, one by one, just like the ones that she would sing to put him to sleep every night before the child's death. The woman dug a small hole with her own hands, and let the child lie down in a peaceful sleep, and then gently and lovingly sprinkled a handful of dirt on the child's body, until the dirt covered the child's body, and it was not until the woman had finished singing each song that the mother was reluctant to leave her lonely child......"
"Uncle, don't talk about it, it's terrible, let's find the Olympic doll steadily!" Li Xiaoni really can't listen to it anymore, if she wants to be taken by Lin Zaishan to think about it again, they will be overshadowed by a terrifying doll for the whole day of competition today, and it is estimated that they will have nightmares when they sleep on the flight back to China at night.
Lin Zaishan told himself about himself, he was not afraid of these ghost dolls around him, but after being mobilized by the story to create a terrifying atmosphere, he enjoyed this terrifying atmosphere very much. He remembered another one-sided adaptation of "My Sister Carries a Doll", the lyrics of that song are more straightforward, and the melody uses the Japanese anime song "It\'s-Only-the-Fairy-Tale", which is quite a genius and quite feeling.
If you want to put it aside, Lin Zaishan definitely doesn't have the desire to sing this song. Hope, after all, is a pediatric thing. But now that he is on a terrifying island full of ghost dolls, Lin Zaishan is in the mood to sing this song all of a sudden.
"I'm suddenly inspired to adapt this nursery rhyme into an even scarier song, do you want to hear it?" Lin Zaishan wiped a strange smile from the corner of his mouth and asked Li Xiaoni. (To be continued.) )
