Traveling into the world of "Lost", Du Xinghe's first thing to do is to survive on this island before he can move on to his next move.

Of course, before that, he also has to recall the world framework of "Lost", in the previous life, he watched "Lost" more sloppily, and there were many important puzzles in it that he did not solve.

The first thing he needs to do now is to solve all the puzzles in "Lost" first, so that he can completely turn this lost world upside down.

Before going to bed this night, Du Xinghe watched this long and stinky American drama again, and tried hard to solve all the puzzles in it.

Watching this drama in memory is much faster than watching it in reality, so it didn't take long for Du Xinghe to watch this American drama with six seasons and 118 levels over and over again.

To say that the American drama "Lost" is definitely the most amazing American drama Du Xinghe has ever seen, it can be called a divine drama, and it can also be said to be the world's largest flickering drama, the structure of this drama is extremely large and complex, after careful study overnight, Du Xinghe finally managed to roughly sort out the context of this story.

Of course, a lot of this is his own understanding.

I don't know if it can be used on the island where they fell now. It seems that the background and structure of the island they are on now is the same as in "1ost".

The story of "1ost" is mainly born on a mysterious island.

After Du Xinghe researched it, the mysterious Atlantis said that it seemed to be established on the island of this drama.

Although the writers of "1ost" did not say where the island came from until the end of the TV series, in fact, there are many plots that corroborate Atlantis's claims.

For example, the place where Grandpa Chard, the ageless eyeliner man Day, lives, is Trinerfe. Legend has it that it is the last remaining part of Atlantis, once the highest peak of Atlantis.

And the Japanese chard entered the confines of the island soon after aboard the Black Rock, because the position of the island had not been moved at that time, and it was still in its original position, that is, somewhere in the Atlantic, which also corresponded to the position of Atlantis.

Also, in the end, the temple of Jiri is pyramid-shaped after revealing its true face. And it's a North American pyramid type. In this place full of Egyptian cultural symbols, why is the core building in the style of the primitive civilization of North America? -- This is in line with the legend of Atlantis: the primitive civilization of North America and ancient Egypt both originated from Atlantis. Obviously, the screenwriter used these Atlantean legends to design the island's primitive civilization.

Therefore, Du Xinghe has reason to believe that a large part of the inspiration for the screenwriter's story of this island is the legend of Atlantis that is difficult to distinguish between true and false. They are now lost on such an island, and although the protagonists have changed, if the general environment remains the same, then it may also be related to the legend of Atlantis.

Du Xinghe then hypothesized and inferred that this island was not actually an island, but a large 6 in the Atlantic Ocean. There is an ancient civilization - the Atlantean civilization, and this civilization is the predecessor of the later Egyptian civilization and the ancient civilization of North America. So the earliest owners of the island were this group of Atlanteans.

According to those inscrutable Atlantean legends, the Atlantean civilization was based on a very mysterious source of energy, which was called "magnetoite" or "god crystal" in those legends, which was not only the source of Atlantean strength and wisdom. It may even be a source of life and wisdom at all.

The Atlanteans could use this thing to channel, prolong life, heal, control the weather, and even store knowledge. This thing, in "1ost". It's something hidden beneath the heart of the island of light. "1ost" doesn't specifically specify what this core is. But it can do almost exactly the same thing as the god crystal described in Atlantean lore.

In "1ost", Jacob and Blackie's crazy mother say that the light that comes out of the heart of the island is the most beautiful light in the world, where it is "life, death, and rebirth", and "that is the source, the heart of this island". This sentence sounds a bit strange at first glance. Why is such a "beautiful" place associated with "death"? In fact, this is because the screenwriters are greatly influenced by the traditional culture and mystical culture of the East (there are many non-Christian civilizations in the film, especially the religious and mythological imagery of the Eastern civilization), in these cultural traditions. Life, death, and rebirth are all part of life.

So we can actually think of the light that comes out of the things under the heart of this island as the "source of life" in general. According to the plot of "1ost", this is also the source of all life in the world. Or take it a step further, it's actually a place where the rules of life are made.

People who possess the power of this "Source of Life" can not only manipulate the birth of life (it is estimated that the island was born after the accident of the Swan Cabin, which caused the power of the "Source of Life" on the island to be disturbed. Only pregnant women on the island will die! ), the end of life (Jacob's ability to give Chard immortality), and even the ability to manipulate the course of life (Janetd's ability to see through Char1ie's fate after being subjected to a magnetic storm).

The source of life actually needs to be driven by something else in order to be light - and that is water. In the finale of "1ost", it can be seen that in fact, the heart of the island must be injected with water to stabilize the earth's light, and its magnetic field only works when there is water to store it.

When the man in black tried to build the wheel in ancient times, he also said that he wanted to build a device that guided "water and light". It can be seen that the man in black also knows that in order to let the power of the source of life wave, there must be water.

The screenwriter set it up like this, which is useful. Because water and light are the two most important elements of life. From this premise, it can also be reversed that the heart of the island is the "source of life" (of course, it seems to be much more than that). As for what it is, who made it, God? Alien? Nu wa? Think whatever you want, because the "what" is an endless question, and not all "what" questions are meaningful.

Since it is the "source of life", it makes sense for Mad Mom to say that "all living people carry a part of this light". Crazy Mom also said that "everyone will want more". And it makes sense, who wouldn't want to live a few more days or gain a little more insight into the meaning of life?

The crazy mother also said, "If the light is extinguished here, the light will be extinguished everywhere." And that makes sense. Although the screenwriter did not directly tell us what would happen to the world if the light source was permanently extinguished, it was conceivable. The order of life will be disturbed (e.g., the whole world will be like an island where no new life can be born), or life will simply disappear, and so on.

Light is easily associated with life, and light is also easily associated with the "spirit" (spi dayt) or "goodness" of the soul.

The concepts of life, light, and goodness are inherently one. So it is also possible to explain what light is on another level - light is the source of "spirit" or "goodness" in everyone's heart.

Light is not only the source of life, but the life that comes from this light source may be good or spiritual. The more light there is in each person's heart, the more his spirit will be, and the closer he will be to the supreme good. The source of life is also the source of goodness.

Back to Atlantis.

The Atlanteans lived through generations with the source of life. Having mastered more and more knowledge about life, some of them may have mastered the ability to borrow the power of the Source of Life, prolong life, communicate with the undead, and even manipulate fate, they were the precursors of later guardians such as Jacob.

The location of this source of life is undoubtedly the holy place of Atlantis. The Atlanteans created many personified myths, legends, and religions around the source of life.

They created the goddess of fertility, Taeret, representing the source of life and the power of life. This is where the statue of Taeret comes from.

The reason for the inference that the Taerat statue was built in a primitive era long before the time of the Mad Mom is that Sayer and others had a time jump in time when they came to the site of what would become the Orchid Station. At that time, there was still a well here, and this well was obviously one of the man-made wells in black, or it was probably the well where the man in black was knocked out by his crazy mother.

Sayer and the others lowered 1ocke down the well with a rope, but suddenly time jumped again, jumping to a time when there were no wells and no wells and ruins, and then they turned around and saw the statue of Lord Taeret. This shows that before the man in black dug the well. The statue of the god taeret already exists.

They also created the god of the dead, the god Anubis, who represents the source of life, the power to end life and rule the afterlife.

They also built a temple near the source of life (the temple was used for other purposes than sacrifices).

I don't know if it was the Atlanteans who suddenly thought of the trick of "living sacrifice" one day, or if some unlucky person accidentally stumbled, but one day, an Atlantean fell into the source of life.

The source of life is nothing but light. There is also a deadly magnetic field for self-protection. Just when everyone thought that this person was dead, this guy actually turned into a puff of black smoke and flew out!

This unlucky guy is the first generation of black smoke. The reason why Du Xinghe speculated that the later man in black was not the first generation of black smoke was because before the man in black turned into black smoke, the crazy mother knew the consequences of people falling into the source of life, which shows that the crazy mother knew about black smoke, either the crazy mother's ex sued her, or the crazy mother herself may have coexisted with the black smoke.

Let's go back to the old days.

That generation of unlucky people Black Smoke is not like the later men in black, the first Black Smoke is a good person.

It turned out that this guy was hit by a magnetic field until the spirit and body were separated, and the body was thrown elsewhere, while the soul was fused with some power of the source of life.

We know that when the black smoke moves, there is a very obvious electromagnetic sound, which is almost the same as the sound of the magnetic field in the heart of the island; Black smoke can also light (take pictures), and the effect is similar to the reaction before the light of the source of life is extinguished after DES touches the tether.

This is actually because the ability of black smoke is originally part of the ability of the source of life. As mentioned earlier, in this drama, the source of life can be understood as the source of "spirit". And the most important ability that Black Smoke "borrows" from the source of life is to read the "Spirit". It can read a person's spirit through guò to complete the judgment of "good" and "evil" of a person.

Thus, the Atlanteans combined the black smoke with their original religious myth that the god Anubis judged the "good" and "evil" of the soul after death. This is the reason why Anubis, the god of the dead, was seen summoning black smoke in the basement of the temple.

In the eyes of the Atlanteans, the god Anubis used the power of black smoke to judge the dead. If Black Smoke had been the big bad guy in the first place, the primitives on the island wouldn't have carved it into the wall with the gods. The black smoke must have been used by the Atlanteans in the first place. Or at least peaceful coexistence.

From then on, the black smoke also became a tool for the judgment of the Atlanteans, and the Atlanteans turned a corner of the temple into a sacred place of worship for the black smoke (that is, the place where Ben was later judged), and some of the found guilty were brought before the black smoke to be judged by the black smoke. Just like later Mr. Eko and Ben were put on trial.

Perhaps Black Smoke later became not only a demigod but was also worshipped by the Atlanteans. It may also become a "fixed formation" for Atlantis. Once a certain generation of black smoke is "laid off" for various reasons, another person will be thrown into the source of life to produce the next generation of black smoke. Black Smoky's job is the Attorney General of Atlantis and Chief Guard.

According to the messy Atlantean legends, the Atlanteans turned out to be very pure and lived in harmony with this "source of life". There wasn't much evil in the world, it was a golden age.

Later, a group of losers appeared among the Atlanteans, son-of-evi1, who were overly greedy and wanted to open up more power to the "source of life".

But what these people who don't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth do not understand is that since there is a good and bright existence in the world, there must be a evil and dark existence. Good and evil go hand in hand.

In fact, the existence of the supreme good is often precisely to suppress the supreme evil. This "source of life" is both a life-giving source and a seal, suppressing the worst and darkest beings in the world. Beneath the source of good is actually the source of evil.

The losers of Atlantis inadvertently broke the seal of the "Source of Life", and the light was extinguished. The fire of evil spreads, and the sealed evil spreads to the world, and from then on, human beings are no longer pure, and they have changed from Adam and Eve, who have never eaten the forbidden fruit, to "people" who have both light and darkness in their souls.

Originally, Black Smoke and the shamans had enough ability to control the overall situation, but their strength came from the source of life. Once the source of life is extinguished. They also lose power. The first generation of black smoke may have died honorably (Du Xinghe speculated that it was to lead to the later "evil" black smoke).

The destruction of the source of life also led to the earthquake in Atlantis. Most of the 6 lands of Atlantis sank to the bottom of the sea, and a large number of Atlanteans fled by boat before the 6 lands sank, some fled to Africa 6, creating the ancient Egyptian civilization, and some fled to the Americas 6, creating the Maya and other American civilizations.

And the shamans who surrounded the Source of Life were now struggling to try to salvage the situation. Perhaps there is a genius (perhaps he is the first generation of Jacob) who understands the mechanism of the source of life like the later man in black, and created a device to re-seal the source of evil and restart the light of life before evil completely consumes the good in the world.

This device, which was later retouched. It is the stone plug, stone trough and aqueduct under the heart of the island seen in the play. (The stone bolt is engraved with Egyptian hieroglyphs, so it can be inferred that this device was made by Atlanteans as much as the statue of Taeret and the temple.) ）

At this time, most of the Atlantis 6 had sunk to the bottom of the sea, and only two small pieces remained in the remaining 6 places around the source of life, which were later the main island and the island of Hydra.

In order to prevent the re-threat of those losers, the first generation of Jacob, who is familiar with the power of the Source of Life, has set up a protection mechanism for the Source of Life: use the power of the Source of Life to seal the entire island and become an island in time and space, so that those losers in the outside world who are scattered in other Big 6 will never find the island again even if they come back in the future.

Although the source of evil has been sealed again, the human world can never return to the original golden age, and too much evil has eroded the soul of mankind. The golden age of mankind is gone, and mankind has entered the era that we are familiar with when good and evil coexist, and even evil is far more than good.

On the island, after a qiē arrangement was made, the first generation of Jacob thought that it was time to determine a new black smoke as an assistant. So, he chose one of the people left on the island and threw it into the source of life.

As a result, unexpected things were born.

Today's source of life is not as good as before, after being destroyed, once the source of life is disturbed, its sealing ability is weakened, and the sealed source of evil pours out.

As a result, this unlucky guy not only absorbed the power of the source of life, but also absorbed the power released by the source of evil, and when it turned into black smoke, he was no longer the chief judge and chief guard of the past, it was already the "incarnation of evil" that Captain Sanada later said.

By the time the first Jacob does this, it's too late. Black Smoke is also a person who has the power of the source of life, and it is very difficult to destroy Black Smoke.

So in order to protect the source of life, the first Jacob had to set up another protection mechanism in the space around the source of life: hide the source of life, and only he could enter this space.

The first Jacob thought that if Black Smoke left the island and entered the outside world, the consequences would be unimaginable. The reason is that Black Smoke is now a small source of evil.

Once Black Smoke leaves the island and enters the outside world, it is equivalent to continuing the process of unleashing the source of evil, and the evil in his body will spread in the human world until all the good in the world is swallowed up. This cannot be tolerated. This is the reason why black smoke cannot leave the island for generations.

is like the later man in black, at most he is a top villain, but he is not a psychopath. If he leaves the island, will he be able to start a massacre of all mankind? There is no hint of this in the film.

In fact, the reason why he can't get out of the island is not because of what he did, but because he is a "source of infection", and once he leaves the island, people all over the world will become zom like Sayid and C1aire. There are many clues in the film to speculate this, for example, the consequences of the man in black leaving the island, the film has always used a strange expression, rather than simply saying that if the man in black leaves the island, everyone will die (this is a later statement after the more anxious), such as id touching the re, saying that if the black smoke leaves, then all the people you love will be "cea-to-be" (cea-to-be) - this sentence sounds a lot like describing the state of sayid and c1aire.

Perhaps on the island, due to the pressure of the source of life, the black smoke is not very contagious, and can only infect some dying people (Sayid is infected after being suffocated and not completely dead, C1aire is infected when he is half-dead by mercenary rocket artillery), although the infected are "resurrected", but the good in the 'spirit' is gradually swallowed by evil, and finally becomes zom. And once it leaves the deterrent range of the source of life, the contagion ability of black smoke is greatly enhanced, and the world is made into a 1and-of-zom forcing e.

The reason why it is speculated that Black Smoky Dejima is not what he wants to do to humans, but that he is a source of infection that cannot be controlled, and there are other reasons. For example, Jacob likens the island to a "cork" with wine in place, which does not allow evil to "spread".

There is also the episode at the end of the fifth season, when Jacob and the Men in Black appear, Jacob and the Men in Black have a conversation. After Jacob summoned the Black Rock to the island, the man in black said, "They-E, they-fight, they-destroy, they-netds-the-same". But Jacob retorted, "You're wrong," and he'll prove the Man in Black wrong.

Later, Jacob also said to the new Japanese chard on the island, "The man in black believes that all human beings are evil, and I want to prove him wrong." Jacob did recruit people to the island again and again, not only to select candidates, but also to prove the Man in Black wrong. But what's the point of proving that "human beings are good"? Is this just a mutual anger between two immortals? (To be continued!)
