Chapter 4 The essence of life is meaninglessness

The plan to decide to cross again has already begun, and this time the selected traveler must be younger, of course. As the saying goes: three years old looks old, and once a person is older, his thoughts will be solidified. It's very hard to change a person's ingrained beliefs.

At the same time, Mei Xiaohan felt that it was necessary for him to study again, and the knowledge he had learned in the past was no longer enough to support the overall situation he was going to preside over next. The gourd looks like it has been going on for some years, and after the baptism of the years, it has also experienced many things. In fact, no matter what, people need to maintain a sense of freshness, especially for the freshness of the future, once this freshness is lost, people will lose confidence in life and lose hope for the future.

If you have to say, what is the meaning of human life, perhaps the best way to prove your greatest value is also the best answer. In the slash-and-burn agrarian society, many people are confined to a small space because of the backwardness of production tools, and the changes they want to make and the changes they can do are too small and too small.

The stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade, and it is always helpful to stand on the shoulders of giants and think about problems. Mei Xiaohan vaguely remembered that the last trip to the crossing exceeded 100 people, and with the expansion of the capacity of the gourd, the crossing that could be carried out this time will be far more than 100 people. The difference is that the first time it was from civilization to darkness, and this time it will be from darkness to civilization.

Meicheng and other major defense work, Mei Xiaohan is not worried at all, there are so many battle-hardened soldiers who are loyal to themselves to guard the six city gates for themselves, it can be said that they are the door gods, as long as they are there, the six gates of Meicheng will not be breached. The trip will last for three years, and the 100 teenagers will be divided into groups and sent to different places to learn different skills.

Because this matter is very important, Mei Xiaohan only revealed the matter to a few high-level officials, and did not make a big publicity. He only said that he was sending teenagers to study, but he did not say where he was going. Since the lord of a city sent a message, he was going to study, and there would be a corresponding subsidy, so as soon as the news was issued, many people sent their children over.

After layers of assessment, 100 children were selected from 10,000 children, and these children are the fresh blood of Meicheng in the future. Mei Xiaohan wants to shape them into a person who is different from this era, so she feels that it is necessary to transform them ideologically. The environment has a great impact on people, which Mei Xiaohan feels very deeply.

Three years, although there is not much to learn, at least it is a good start, because history has always been slow. As she gets older, the questions she used to be looking for seem to be gradually unraveled, similar to the topic of the meaning of life, Mei Xiaohan gradually understands. The meaning of life is an unsolvable one, and it is very ridiculous to find the answer in the unsolvable.

Just like the moment he was born, no one has explicitly told him why he came to this world. No one has ever told him how to spend life and what kind of life is meaningful. Looking at the characters in history, what is the difference between the good guys and the bad guys, or what is the standard of judgment, and who can say clearly? History is not cold words, but one past after another, one story after another, or one legend after another.

It is difficult for everyone to escape the fate of being recycled by history, Mei Xiaohan gradually understood that the magical gourd he carried with him would eventually become a part of history, and those friends around him, deceased relatives, and the past one after another will eventually become history.

Although looking ahead, there is still a confusion ahead, although nothing has absolute meaning, and perhaps everything will be unsolvable in the end, there are always some people who blind themselves and try to find the so-called meaning, and the meaning they find is only what they think.

Perhaps he decided to cross over again, and it would be a meaningless trip, and all the confusion made him push the problem to the starting point.

"Who am I?"

"What does it exist for?"

I don't know when it started, Mei Xiaohan became more haggard than before, saying that the questions he was thinking about were more serious than before, and he didn't understand why. Life is the same every day, time is like a big roulette wheel, every minute and every second is passing. Asking a problem and finding a solution to it is perhaps the essence of life. Every day is like this, every day repeats the same work, and the daily life process is exactly the same, maybe this is also the meaning of life.

Mei Xiaohan used to yearn for the life of the ancients, especially the Great Song Dynasty, he thought that living in an era of literati, this is a very happy thing, in the entire history of Chinese culture, there is no dynasty so respectful of culture, and for this kind of invisible things, Mei Xiaohan is also more confused.

If one day, you have enough power in your hands, and at that time, you want to do everything that can make you happy, even if some things are evil, and power may be more practical and enjoyable than the pursuit of so-called meaning.

Mei Xiaohan's eyes suddenly became keen, his heart was no longer just a little wave, he was a little turbulent at the moment, he didn't want to be satisfied with what he had obtained in front of him. He wants to create his own culture, he wants to create his own world.

Even though there are noble people in this world, people who serve the people, people who serve the people wholeheartedly. But no one dares to deny that they have ever been moved by the so-called dreams, and no one can not eat the fire of the world.

This time to set sail, this time to go on an expedition, is no longer just for dreams, because dreams are always illusory, or they can make people feel meaningless. Follow the pace of history, follow the footprints of our ancestors, be able to pioneer and innovate, be able to do the best, and be able to do the best.

I lost the illusion of chasing who I am, and I no longer thought about what Grandpa Hulu said, from this moment on, I really really walked the path I wanted to take, no matter how tortuous this road was, and it was considered meaningless, this time I had to move forward by myself.

Mei Xiaohan doubted herself countless times, living in an illusion, the whole world was in the illusion, and everything she saw in front of her was an illusion. Nevertheless, who can say clearly, what kind of world is true, which self is oneself, what is true and what is false.
