Volume 1 Meaning Text 003 The Girl and the Wine (I)
743x 12.1 in Monan
The girl was a little frightened, frightened and frightened by the boy's sudden behavior.
Suddenly, the girl didn't know what to do, but let the boy hold her gently.
However, because of this, the girl's previous fear of death and the sense of uneasiness that sprouted have been inexplicably reduced a lot, obviously the other party is a stranger who only has a few faces, and now he can only be called a fellow disciple!
The girl's hair was stroked like this, and she felt unusually warm, and as for the cold brought by the imminent death, it was gradually dispelled by this warmth.
Then, the girl quietly closed her eyes, thinking: If only time had stopped like this, this would really be the best ending.
After all, now, here and now, there is someone to give yourself warmth.
Perhaps, Qian didn't know it, but just this simple action, just a few words of comfort, may have made him the light in the girl's heart.
But in the final analysis, the two people who hugged each other today can be regarded as officially acquainted, and then, it always feels a little strange to be behaving like this.
I was held like this, and I don't know how long it took, the girl returned to reality, slowly opened her eyes, and moved her gaze to the boy's cheek.
Xu is a psychological effect, the young man's appearance is even more handsome than when he first met.
Then the girl looked into the boy's eyes again, and saw a few tears flowing from the corners of the boy's closed eyes.
Only then did the girl realize that she was not the only fragile person. In the face of the predetermined death, everyone will feel extremely powerless, and some things cannot be changed after all.
Just because you belong to a particular organization, just because you want to have a faith, you are treated like this. Before, I thought about living a good life. However, the world does not allow them to live like this.
As a human being, there is always a need for sustenance, in this world full of metal mechanical structures, not everyone can have warmth, the girl thought.
After a long time, Qian also slowly opened his eyes. At this time, he and the girl looked at each other, and a light crimson swelled up on the cheeks of the two, and they couldn't bear the shyness, and then quickly broke away from each other.
Qian was the first to speak: "Ah, I'm sorry, I was rude just now. I don't know why, I suddenly stepped forward and hugged you, I'm sorry! ”
"It's fine." The girl didn't know what to say.
Qian continued: "It must be embarrassing to be hugged by someone who has only known each other for a short time. I rarely have contact with other people, and I really don't know what to do when I saw you crying just now. In this case, it seems a bit too serious.
"It's okay, just now, thank you. My previous fears were much less, and I was lucky to meet you before the end of my life. After the girl finished speaking, the fox was suspicious for a moment, and then continued, "You just cried?" ”
In fact, there is another reason for Qian's embarrassment, he is obviously the comforting party, but he is seen by the comforted person on his vulnerable side.
However, Qian didn't know why he was crying, and he didn't understand, obviously he was not afraid of death, so why did these tears flow?
After all, for him, there has never been much nostalgia in this world, so the reason for the tears should not be imminent death.
So, what exactly is the reason? Qian couldn't figure it out, and suddenly remembered that the book he had read before mentioned:
Human beings have a subconscious, that is, the lower layer of the "self" - the id, and the actions of the self are not controlled by the intellect, which will lead to many emotions that are thought to be non-existent, but suddenly arise inexplicably. In other words, these emotions have always been there from beginning to end, affecting them all the time, and they don't know it.
Qian roughly guessed that he might be afraid of death.
It's just that multiple layers of consciousness are intertwined, telling yourself that you shouldn't be afraid of death, and that there is no nostalgia for life, and these consciousnesses cover layer by layer, covering and blocking the original self-consciousness.
Then, because of the influence of the girl's emotions just now, that vague mood penetrated through this layer of self-consciousness covering the self, and went straight to the deepest self-consciousness. Then, the neurons were stimulated to make themselves act like that.
However, Qian never thought this was correct, he was a dialectical egoist. He believes that as a human being, one should always be sober and feel that all his actions are justified and evidence-based. Therefore, under the supervision of the creed, no matter what happens, it should not be prevaricated with the self when it cannot be explained.
Then, Qian looked at the girl, and only gave a slight "um" to acknowledge. At the moment, he is still thinking about why he is crying.
In order to prevent his words from affecting the girl's mood, Qian continued; "I'm not afraid of death, I, I should have just been infected by you."
Qian's words were spoken slowly, as if every word he spoke had been carefully considered. However, this explanation sounds more like a confession.
Hearing the boy's answer, the girl smiled and said, "That's great, I thought you were going to face death with the same mood as me." Although I had been in the Holy Religion for a long time, studying the Holy Doctrine every day, and I had obviously read all the contents of the Holy Doctrine before, I had thought about committing suicide when my spirit was at its emptiest, and at that time, I had no fear at all. But now, death is in front of my eyes, and I flinch, speaking of which, I am really a useless person. ”
When Qian heard this, he pondered the girl's words and replied; "It is normal for people to be afraid of death, although it is said that death is only for a moment, but no one has ever tried the pain of that moment, and the most remarkable thing about human beings is that the degree of perception is deeper, wider, and wider than other species, and they have enough wisdom to look at the various situations around them. But it is precisely because of this complexity that what was supposed to be a human advantage has become a fatal disadvantage. In the face of pain, especially unknown pain, fear is most like the emotion of human beings when the degree of pain is not known. ”
The girl looked at the boy in a daze, she didn't expect him to respond to her words in this way, and after thinking about what the young man had just said, she said: "It's not pain, in fact, I'm not sure what the source of fear is, although there are many pictures after death described in the Holy Righteousness, but now, I can't be sure if there are any pictures or not, maybe I'm not religious enough." ”
"But it's good that you can think about it, we have faith. In fact, it's just to be able to redeem your soul. Qian said calmly.
The girl was very surprised by Qian's answer, so she asked curiously; "That, Qian, that's not right." As if realizing something, the girl suddenly closed her mouth.
Qian noticed this detail and replied, "It's okay, just call me by name." ”
The girl nodded, "Then, Qian, why did you join the Holy Sect?" ”
"Why, in fact, there is no special reason, it's also a coincidence, I always feel that there is a destiny in the dark, everything I encounter now, is prescribed, I should be to join. As for me, let's not talk about it. Let's talk about you, looking at what you're wearing, it doesn't look like you were born in a poor family. What's more, you have a sense of nobility more than those who were born in wealthy families, obviously your life is so rich, what is there to be dissatisfied with, and what is there to get from? ”
"Indeed, as you said, the conditions in my family are quite generous. But that doesn't mean that money makes everything stable. As she spoke, the girl's brows furrowed slightly, as if she remembered something painful.
Seeing such a girl, Qian knew that he wanted to avoid this question, but he still asked unconsciously; "Can you tell me about it?"
The girl tried to speak, but immediately closed her mouth again. Although some people are willing to listen to her story, it always feels inappropriate to talk about her private affairs to someone who is not yet a friend.
Qian quickly sensed the girl's thoughts; "It's okay, don't mind. As I said earlier, I will definitely save you, and I need to know more about you to know how to save you. ”
After listening to this, the girl was still entangled for a while. Then, I was relieved, perhaps thinking that I would be executed tomorrow.
"Then I said," the girl changed her mind, and decided to say things that she seldom mentioned to others.
"My family is located in the west of Nangao City, the Qing family is still a little famous in the local area, and also runs a lot of business, the most prosperous of which is the wine industry, in the local area, it is also famous, basically, ninety percent of the wine in the west of Nangao City is owned by my Qing family, while rapidly increasing their own wealth, it also deprives others of the opportunity to trade and trade. Therefore, there will be many competitors who hate our Qingshi Liquor, but we haven't done anything wrong, right? ”
"Nature is not a mistake, in enterprise competition, survival of the fittest is the most normal law."
Not paying much attention to the boy's reply, the girl continued: "In order to interfere with our business, our stores in the west of Nangao City are often maliciously vandalized by others. Don't think about it, it must be those competitors who did it. However, even if everyone knew it, we had no evidence that it was those people who did it, and they recruited people who had nothing to do with the liquor industry. In this way, the smashing, snatching, and falling were intermittent for several months. ”
The girl was halfway through her speech, paused, and turned, "But, even so, they are not satisfied. After seeing that the results were still not obvious and far from meeting their expectations, I set my eyes on the owner of Qing's Liquor, that is, my grandfather. I hope to suspend the operation of the business by kidnapping my grandfather and devoting most of the Qing's manpower to the investigation. ”
"Although this is a helpless move by the other party, it can be regarded as a ruthless move." Qian nodded numbly.
"However, after many attacks, they did not see any gain. Not to mention that grandpa himself is an expert in martial arts, and many retired soldiers are hired as bodyguards around, and the opponent's kidnapping action has no effect at all. Eventually, as we all focused our attention and guards around my grandfather, they set their sights on me and my sister. ”
"This is really excessive, involving the other party's family, especially minors like you." Qian added, standing from the perspective of a bystander.
"About two months ago, my sister and I were out running errands when we were attacked by a group of people, and as a result, my sister was taken away. I was rescued by a few people who passed by at that time, and this was the opportunity for me to join the Holy Religion, and the few people who saved me were the followers of the Holy Religion. ”
"It feels like it's meant to be." The tone was as cold and unkind as before.
"Of course, this kidnapping operation has seriously exceeded Grandpa's imagination. I didn't expect those people on the other side to attack their family members. In other words, it is because we are too simple that we have fallen into the way of the wicked. When Grandpa found out, he was furious and immediately reported the matter to the local police station, and our Qing clan also poured out of the nest and went to search. I have to say that the other party's purpose has been achieved at this time, Qing's Liquor, because my sister was tied up, and it became a pot of porridge. ”
"It's not too late to make amends." Like a critic, arrogant and contemptuous.
"Although. Our company is very big, but after all, unlike those who are familiar with business operations and know the strategy of shopping malls, our biggest reliance is on winemaking technology and precise control of raw materials. Later, because of the dispatch of a large amount of manpower, I found my sister in less than a day. Although several bandits were caught, there was still no way to gather a shred of relevant evidence. In the end, they had to be put to death, and then they were gone. After the story was finished, Qing Yuan looked a little tired.
"Now that I've found my sister, it shouldn't be fine." Qian was only slightly interested and a little curious at this time.
