One hundred and five, the status of the protagonist
In contrast, Shen Ye's recollection of the experience of almost fantastical madness in the past did not make him more mentally mature than the current journeyβthis solo expedition. β³β.
In the past, Shen Ye was sensual, and he remembered what his father said: A sensual man is invincible, unless he meets a mature man.
He has never understood the deep meaning, a subjective and emotional man is certainly not a match for a restrained, calm, patient and rational mature person. But who is the opponent of the "invincible" of the sensual man?
Now he understands that the deep meaning of this sentence is: sensibility can overcome others, but maturity can overcome oneself.
So far, everyone on their side has not wanted to do anything for themselves, whether they are sympathetic or want to play a role in an unusual story, or they simply need to give their love, or they are genuinely infectious...... In short, they did what they wanted, and throughout the story, everyone around them was more eye-catching than themselves, the central character. If this is the story, he is undoubtedly the most defeated protagonist, standing in the middle of a group of radiant supporting characters.
It turns out that the core characters can also be as insignificant as themselves.
So he needed to overcome himself, when Fang Cheng said that he would go on the road alone, he was scared, but more than that, he was more happy that he finally had the opportunity to get a stage to perform alone to satisfy his vanity, which he had long been unable to suppress.
"Rejoice as much as your brother rises from the dead......," he said, holding a Bible in his hand and reciting some of his favorite sentences, even though he had never been a Jesus. But the faith of nothingness will lift his spirit. When the blood of adventure boils in the veins of youth, flowing like fire. He could feel that no matter how big the story was, it didn't matter what it was. The important thing is that he doesn't tarnish his identity anymore, whether it is the golden axis or not, he should be the most conspicuous, the most popular, even if he is sad, he should be bright.
"From this moment on, Shen Ye, please do your duty as the protagonist, the inheritance given to you by your parents is destined to make you different, you should have believed in yourself a long time ago. Even if you are just blindly optimistic, you still have to do it, because this is what is good for you, the earth, the breeze, the grass and trees, the sun, the moon and the stars...... It's going to work in your favor. Otherwise, even in the biggest story, you can't even make it clear where you belong to your own little one, and where should your soul go? β
On the banks of the roaring river, he wrote such sentences in his travel diary.
This is indeed an excellent state of mind, and even a hasty escape becomes tragic and sunny because of it. For two whole months, he had only one compass. Escape the hustle and bustle of the city, walk in the deserted wilderness as much as possible, stuff compressed biscuits into chapped lips under the scorching sun, and run through the damp rainforest. Huddled under the rocks in the wind and rain, shivering with cold while sleeping, begging for a little food from a passing stranger without dignity, and enduring the sharp pain of changing his face every ninety-six hours. Many times due to wound infection, he had a high fever and cracked tooth. His mouth was covered with blood, and his whole body was in pain and weakness as if he had been beaten. But he only had a short rest before he set off, even if he could only wriggle and crawl on the ground like maggots......
The journey of suffering is the tempering of the soul, so when he stepped on a hot land with ragged clothes, yellow muscles, and swollen bare feet, he did not cry loudly in the face of the upcoming victory, because he believed in himself, because he devoted himself wholeheartedly, then victory was not a surprise, but an inevitability.
"The dead end comes from a story called the Golden City, which is said to be a labyrinth where people who want to get gold go in and find that all the roads are dead ends. The implication is that people indulge in materialistic desires and eventually cannot extricate themselves. Opponents of materialism will say: If money is not sinful if it is not worth it?
It's like asking what if Newton didn't have gravity? Are people floating on the ceiling? It sounds ironic that people make money and become slaves to it, but that's what people do. There is always a way to blame sin on something else, such as money sin without talking about one's own greed. Therefore, there is no dead end in the world, it is man himself who is lost. β
The dead-end fairy tale is different from other fairy tales in that it has an opening paragraph like this, like an introduction, but the story has only one sentence:
Someone made a labyrinth, and then he trapped himself.
The question is why the story is not called a "labyrinth" but a "dead end".
"Because it's a true story."
"Who? Where were you born? β
"A woman, in Ciudad Ferro. She was an excellent doctor, an expert in genetics, and a master weaponmaker. She had hoped to make a lot of money with her talent. In her words, she made weapons, murderous things, and she couldn't expect to make a name for herself on it, so she had to sell it to someone who could afford it. It wasn't until later that her husband and children died in an infrasound weapon, a weapon that could kill people in a short period of time with low-frequency vibrations. She realized that she had been led to a dead end by money. β
Ferro City, a hot city, at the junction of China and India, with a radius of less than seventy miles, surrounded by dry and cracked land, Shen Ye used up the last injection of face-changing injection here, and he saw the horizon behind a towering ancient city that was about to be completely weathered, even so, without a guide, it is easy for people to get lost in the ruins there, so it is called the Lost City.
Shen Ye walked into the maze city, those earthen walls that had weathered down shorter than him fell on the sand as soon as he touched it, and the stone pillar patterns that could be seen occasionally still told the old civilization here, in the ruthless annihilation of time, the maze city was struggling for the last time.
When he passed by an earthen wall, suddenly the ground buzzed, and a round hole opened, Shen Ye was not too surprised, he knew that something was waiting for him all morning.
He walked into the round hole, through a long dark chrysalis passage, into the basement ten meters deep, where the humming of motors could be heard, and the first room he entered was topped with dim lamps, and on either side there were long tables filled with various metal parts and instruments, most of which he could not name.
He smelled the smell of scones. Following the scent, he entered an iron door, which was a kitchen. The lights are much brighter, and a woman is busy in front of the oven. She heard the voice and turned back with a smile, "Xiao Ye, you're here." β
"Landlady!" Shen Ye's eyes widened, and in front of him was actually the landlady of the small rental house where he lived, the chubby woman who was rough and loud when collecting rent, and shouted at every turn that she would cut off the water and electricity if she didn't pay the rent.
At the moment, she didn't change much, she was still wearing the same checkered skirt as ordinary women. Wearing gloves and trying to pull scones out of the box.
"Hungry?" She carefully put the scones on a plate and put them in front of him, put a bottle of water on the table, looked at Shen Ye in front of him, and said with a smile: "It doesn't look like you're bad." Give it a try. β
Shen Ye was silent for a while, took a sip of water first, grabbed the scones and devoured them, the landlady smiled and watched him eat for a while, then walked to the oven and cleaned it up. Like a hard-working housewife who entertains a wanderer.
Shen Ye took a big sip of water, swallowed the biscuit with difficulty, and said, "I thought that this might be an acquaintance, but I really didn't expect it to be you." I don't even know what your name is? β
"My name is Luo Meiwei. You can call me Aunt Wei. She took the plate in front of him and put it in the sink to wash it.
Shen Ye noticed that there were a few old newspapers stacked on the table. One of them was shocked by Luo Meiwei's photo, on which she was judged to be two people in front of her, young. Energetic, wearing a doctor's lab coat. The high-spirited look, next to the text is: Senior Adviser of Bartley Arms Company. Ms. Luo Meiwei, a Chinese-American, demonstrated the feasibility of transplantation of human parameters through technology transmission in an independent research project.
"Actually, I'm quite worried." Luo Meiwei said while washing the dishes: "After all, there is no guarantee that you can remember every conversation you had with your father. You have a good memory. β
"Maybe it's because my father doesn't talk to me much." Shen Ye looked at the kitchen, "When did you come here?" β
"I'll be here after you moved out. For a while I almost thought we were going to be neighbors for life. β
"What do you have to do with my father?"
"Business partner, he paid me a lot of money to work for him."
"Liaoyuan military industry?"
She nodded, "At first, it was a big institution, but later I learned that just to hide people's eyes, your father only wanted two things, 'become a master' and 'Thor armed'. After these two things showed some signs of something, he announced the bankruptcy of Liaoyuan Military Industry and secretly moved here. β
"Did he leave me for sixteen years for this?"
"That's not it, it only took about two years before and after this matter, and as for the previous matter, I won't know more than Emperor Lin."
"The dead end is a plan you negotiated with my father?"
"Not exactly." She sighed, "I did something to kill my husband and children, and I did end up at a dead end during that time, if I hadn't met your father, I might have chosen to commit suicide." β
"How did he convince you to get back to your old job?"
"He said this time it's not for the money, it's for his children." Luo Meiwei looked at him deeply.
Shen Ye smiled, "You are a person who likes children so much, but you are so fierce to me." β
"That's how I care about it. I watched you grow from twenty-two to twenty-four, weak and unmotivated, and I was worried about how you would play the role of your father's plan. β
"That'...... Do you feel that your educational methods have worked? β
She smiled wryly, "Well, I'll admit I'm not a baby care expert. She washed her hands and walked up to Shen Ye, holding his head with both hands, "Now let me take a good look at you." The eyes are wide open and the mouth is open. β
Shen Ye opened her mouth obediently, she looked at it seriously, touched his pulse again, sniffed his armpits, and said, "It's okay, it's a little slight and bacterial infection, malnutrition and dermatitis, but it's nothing serious." β
Shen Ye asked, "Are you the guide of my father's seventh puzzle?" β
"Don't talk about any riddles." She rubbed her fat arm, put on a pair of glasses, beckoned him to come with her, and said as she walked: "Your father is a master of fooling people, and the old fellows of the four major families regard him as a successful example, and set up these stupid riddles as a path to guide you to the golden axis, and each one is in your father's calculations. But Thor's armament is a special case, and its success has surprised even the association, so it has been put into the puzzle queue, hoping that you will dig up its existence. This has nothing to do with the Golden Axis anymore. β
She walked into another studio as she spoke, and Shen Ye was taken aback here. Compared to the messy studio outside, it was spotless. The tools were clean, and several large computers were constantly in operation. There are many human organs on the shelves, and two robotic hands are constantly moving towards a dummy on an operating table.
Luo Meiwei sat in front of the computer, her chubby fingers jumping flexibly on the keyboard, watching her look like a market aunt was really incompatible with this high-tech environment, and even a little weird.
Shen Ye asked again: "Qianqian is also your masterpiece?" β
"I was only responsible for the design of the plan, and her success was the result of many scientists and engineers at that time when Liaoyuan Military Industry had not yet moved."
"What kind of plan can turn a delicate girl like hers into a terrifying killer?"
"It's very simple, as long as she understands what she can do, ordinary people are just ordinary, but they don't realize how capable they are. All I have to do is find the answer and sue her. β
"For example?"
"Like that." Luo Meiwei pointed to a sandbag next to her with many connections, "Try to kick it with all your might." It measures your strength. β
Shen Ye kicked hard, and the pound was 164 pounds. Shen Ye smiled self-deprecatingly: "It's a little bad, isn't it?" β
"Now do as I say." She turned on a demonstration screen on her computer, "The power starts from the soles of the feet, spins up from the lower limbs, and then passes through the waist, throwing the legs out like a chain ball." β
Shen Ye watched for a while, and kicked her method again, bang! His feet hurt. But the number jumped to 668 pounds.
"Wow!" He was taken aback, "How many times has the method of change been improved?" β
"It's no surprise that people have cartilage that can withstand seven tons of gravity without breaking, and the muscles of the body can contract up to six tons in the same direction. A person who can tow a train, 17o centimeters tall and weighs 6o kilograms, can release the impact equivalent of a five-ton truck head-on. Everyone has these powers, but most people don't know how to do it. β
Shen Ye was amazed. Asked: "So...... What exactly is Thor Armament? β
"That's part of it." Luo Meiwei opened a steaming metal box and took out a robotic hand.
Shen Ye said: "This is ...... Iron Man's arm? β
"An imitation of Qian Xiaoyu's arm."
"Xiaoyu?"
"He has five times the athletic strength of ordinary people. TongguΓ²'s study of his severed arm yielded astonishing overall parameters, which were combined and then calculated to create a replica of his arm. Qian Xiaoyu's talent in game operation is not without reason. His body may have had a benign mutation before birth, which leads to his body not being able to keep up with nerve conduction, so he can only be an ordinary person in reality, but because there is no ** constraint in the game, he can show his skills instead. β
Shen Ye looked at the delicate manipulator in his hand, "Does this mean that this hand not only helps people in neurotransmission, but can also do what normal arms can't." β
"Manipulators are not called neurotransmission." Luo Meiwei smiled, "It should be called the number jΓΉ pass." But you're right. β
"But when did you get Xiaoyu's broken arm?"
"You don't have to get it, he just gets his genes when he's in the hospital."
"How did you know that I would know Qian Xiaoyu at that time?"
"The trajectory of your life is set, but it's not set at the beginning, and when you contact everyone, whether it's the association or your father, they will look up the person's back, so when you know Chanson, they immediately know that he has an extraordinary son. Then the people around you will guide you to him. β
"But wasn't the puzzle designed by the Guild? How can I be consistent with my father? β
"It's your father who keeps in line with them, and then adds a little change, for example, the association only knows that Qian Xiaoyu can be a member of your team in the future, but your father thinks further, he thinks about whether he can combine the advantages of all kinds of outstanding people to create a powerful weapon for you."
"In addition to Xiaoyu, who else has taken advantage of them?"
"Nope." Luo Meiwei spread out her hand, "This is not science fiction, and the huge cost and years of research have at most only allowed us to successfully connect with Qian Xiaoyu's neurotransmission information and transplant it to Thor Armament." If you want to see an Iron Man-like suit, you can only see it in the movies. However, it is still gratifying, this is a good start, and I believe that in the future, excellent skills and even animal abilities in human transplantation will not be just a fantasy. β
"Why did you choose to be human?"
"Because it is the easiest to dock, you and Qian Xiaoyu are of the same age, and your physique is slightly better than him, if Qian Xiaoyu has such an ability, if he can bear it, you can bear it. If you want to transplant skills quickly, the first thing to consider is of course safety. β
Shen Ye said: "I don't understand the technical aspect, what can I do with this hand?" β
"What Qian Xiaoyu can do in the game, you can do. Remember when he was one against three? β
Shen Ye recalled the pinnacle battle, and thought of the situation when Xiao Yu stabbed and killed the Quartet with fire, "Can you really make those actions in reality?" β
"Yes, and more, because the game has its limitations, and the reality is endless."
"Can I try it?" Shen Ye wanted to take the manipulator.
Luo Meiwei closed the box, "Not yet, exercise requires the coordination of the whole body, and it can't be solved with one hand." β
"What about the rest of Thor's armament?"
"Lost."
"What? Lost? β
