00220 Both banks of the river
"I ...... I still don't quite understand, what the hell are you talking about? Han Wensheng's thinking was too jumpy, he was completely immersed in thinking, and entered a state of selflessness.
It is not difficult to see from his conversation with Yan Shan that this kind of selflessness is still accompanied by a certain amount of sobriety, at least for the current Han Wensheng, this clarity is necessary when he still needs help.
So Han Wensheng raised his hand and motioned to Yan Shan and the others, and then he fell into deep thought, followed by a flash of inspiration, and said happily: "Let me tell you a story, right?" ”
"Story?"
"Yes!" Han Wensheng obviously didn't intend to wait for Yan Shan's response, so he told the story directly.
"I remember reading a story about a soldier who had been fighting for days and days, and when he arrived at the front line, he followed his troops and stationed them on one side of the river, and on the other side of the river was the enemy, so the river was clearly marked as a danger zone and was strictly forbidden to go. But this clean-loving soldier, in the continuous battle, the sound of the river made it difficult for him to sleep, and the heavenly notes finally made him choose to take the risk of bathing in the river. He went with luck, because the moon was high and the wind was dark, as long as the river he chose was hidden enough and the bath was fast enough, he could sleep comfortably. This kind of self-anesthesia is simply too lethal for a well-targeted person. But he was lucky, he made it to the river, then took off his dirty clothes, and hugged the river like a newborn child, enjoying the comfort.
It's all so wonderful, can you imagine it? ”
Han Wensheng paused intentionally, he looked at Yan Shan and asked.
Yan Shan listened very carefully, and gradually became distracted, and was shocked when she heard this, and then replied: "Probably, I don't know much about war, but I haven't taken a shower for a few days, and my body is very dirty, and that feeling is really uncomfortable." ”
"Mm-hmm, it's best if you can feel it! Then next......" Han Wensheng's tone began to sink, and a bad premonition churned in Yan Shan's heart.
While the soldier was rejoicing, he suddenly noticed that there was a man bathing in the water near the other side of the river, and that man seemed to have spotted him. In an instant, all the duties of identity returned to the naked soldier, who swam to the shore as fast as he could, and then got the gun, which was faster than the other one! But...... As he aimed at the man opposite, who was as naked as he was, it occurred to him why two people, after stripping naked, were like mortals in the Garden of Eden, so they would take up arms and kill each other. Well? Why? ”
Han Wensheng paused again when he said this, he looked at Yan Shan, and asked with the sincerity and devotion of a student who was eager for answers.
Yan Shan's words were stopped, and she had vaguely understood the intention that Han Wensheng wanted to express when he was crazy at first.
Oh, yes......
Why the hell did the Grim Reaper put a dagger between you and me and then let us kill each other? Is it because we want to live? Or is it because we're afraid of dying?
Some people may feel that there is no difference between the two issues.
But if you think about it, is being afraid of death and wanting to live really the same concept?
No, it's definitely not a concept.
Han Wensheng uses a story to describe this concept, a concept that is not easily portrayed by words, but is extremely scary to think about.
In the end, she couldn't give an answer, and she waited for Han Wensheng to finish the story.
Han Wensheng was a little disappointed when he saw this, but the story did not end there, he continued.
"When this soldier began to have this unrealistic, even somewhat pretentious, even ridiculous and meaningless idea, on the other side of the river, gunshots rang out."
Tale......
This is the end, an ending that is easy to guess, at least for very people, for your enemies, your kindness is irresponsible to yourself, and you must sacrifice yourself when you tolerate others.
So what is this story trying to convey?
What does Han Wensheng want to express with it?
"The story is what I read, not what I wrote, but I remember it deeply, and I have been asking questions and reflecting since the day I read it, trying to understand what kind of truth is behind this story." Han Wensheng's emotions are a little out of control. It's just that this time Han Wensheng didn't use the excessive way of self-harm to express it.
"Two naked people, put down their nationality and honor, you and I are just two mortals in this world, but we are still killing each other and killing each other, who gave us this sense of honor to kill? And what about this concept of necessity to kill? "Han Wensheng is melancholy like a poet drunk in the rain, he has forgotten the existence of other people in the world, and is completely like the god of the gods, singing, I am mortal, but I am free.
"Perhaps, everyone involved in the war is guilty." After pondering for a long time, Yan Shan finally borrowed a little girl's thinking and gave her own understanding.
Han Wensheng got the answer, he was stunned for a moment, and then fell into a long thought.
The process was long, so long that Yan Shan even thought that he no longer existed, because he maintained a posture from beginning to end, silent, silent.
Until.
He suddenly opened his eyes, clapped his hands and said, "You are very smart, I think, what the teacher appreciates is your cleverness to dare to speak out, so can you help me again?" Just once! ”
Han Wensheng's pleading tone surprised Yan Shan, her memory system was recovering at an accelerated pace at this time, and many words were sensitively stimulating her mind, such as the teacher Han Wensheng mentioned just now.
But before that, Yan Shan still gave priority to helping Han Wensheng.
"Yes, you can say it."
Han Wensheng thought about it, but he was a little hesitant after receiving a positive reply.
But soon he stopped, he looked at Yan Shan seriously and asked, "How do you understand trust?" ”
"Trust?"
"Yes, trust!"
"Why understand it? I think it's a feeling that assertive vocabulary alone is not enough to fully understand and describe it. Yan Shan felt a little incredible, Han Wensheng's thinking was too jumpy.
Han Wensheng said disapprerovingly: "No, this is very important, this is more important than everything now, more important than dying thousands of people every day, and wantonly insulting human nature like creating garbage, because I just found out that it may be the golden key for us to unlock the shackles of original sin!" ”
"Original sin shackles?" Yan Shan was already a little sleepy when she listened, but she chose to persevere.
"Well, if I have to put it in words...... I think...... Maybe it's family, maybe it's self. Yan Shan gave a natural reply without much hesitation, but she still consciously selected two representative ones in a perfunctory manner.
"Family and self......" Han Wensheng fell silent again, but this time he quickly came to his senses, he patted his forehead, and he couldn't help himself with joy.
"I see! So that's it! So that's it! Han Wensheng left happily as he spoke, completely ignoring the question from Yan Shan.
Leaving alone, Yan Shan was already very tired, although she did not exercise, just the mental cognition had exhausted him.
……
2/1/90.
Remembering the revival, Yan Shan saw herself for the first time.
Bloody and ugly is no longer what Yan Shan cares about the most, and the most difficult thing for her to accept now is that the plan she proposed ends up on her.
"What was the original purpose of Project Turaya?" This is the question given by the teacher when Shan Shan participated in the final interview with Eshingwal.
"Addressing the Problem of Loss of Progenitoid Cell Continuity." Yan Shan's answer was fluent, but the teacher's face was embarrassed.
This made Yan Shan very nervous, she had just graduated, she didn't want to marry into a wealthy family in such a daze, and then gradually forget what she had learned, because it was contrary to her original intention of studying the highest school in Aschenwal in the first place.
"So, do you have any unique understanding of the problem of loss of progenitor cell continuity?" The teacher didn't look up, he looked at Yan Shan's qualification report, the score of the report was very high, but his expression seemed to be a little disappointed.
Seeing this scene, Yan Shan immediately woke up to the fact that this was not an ordinary job interview for a large company in the coalition government, but the recruitment of personnel for the "Tulaya" project coordinated by the Supreme Defense Department of Mankind and the Supreme Academy of Sciences.
This recruitment is not open to the public, and each of the recommended candidates is the essence of each college, most of them have completed the general courses in a short period of time, and then achieved certain results and been recognized in the model project, so that such elites will be recommended to join Turaya.
Yan Shan is not a nerd, she has been noble since she was a child, so she has learned to observe words and emotions in her long-term dealings with people.
Therefore, after a short period of thought, Yan Shan responded in a relatively heavy way.
"I think this could be a disaster for all mankind, because if a species loses its continuity, then fundamentally they will have to choose between evolution and degradation, but either choice may accelerate the arrival of this disaster, but if you don't choose, then the disaster itself will bring the extinction of the species."
This time, the answer was perfect.
The teacher really stopped staring at the report and sighed, but raised his head and looked at the beautiful girl in front of him with some surprise.
The result is......
Yan Shan became the first eliminator to be brushed off by the interview.
She didn't expect this ending to be very lost, so she decided to indulge herself, took a few friends to some entertainment venues, and then disappeared.
……
"Kid, there are two choices in front of you now, choose to join us, I give you the truth and resources, but from now on, you will have the possibility to give everything for this, including yourself, and the other option, we will make a memory modification on you, you will wake up in the bar, completely unremembered that you were secretly recruited, even including this time Tulaya Project you will not remember at all, but you can enjoy your rest of the days in peace." The old man who was in charge of the interview during the day sat opposite Yan Shan.
