Long Xin'er's question also has a bit of life philosophy contained in it. yes, if it were me, how would I choose?

Born without dying, shining with the sun and the moon, and being the same age as the mountains and rivers, this should be something that most people dream of, but if this is at the cost of loneliness and loneliness, how many people will be willing to do this? The reason why human beings can be called advanced animals is precisely because we have more complex emotions than other animals, and these complex emotions constitute a complex human society, deriving a myriad of worlds, so that there is a colorful life, and in turn, all this will allow human beings living in it to give birth to more complex emotional elements, and the cycle goes on and on, and there is the development of civilization.

But if one day, everyone can only live alone in a specific range of areas, and can only raise a glass to invite the bright moon to become three people, then the so-called complex emotions are impossible to talk about, and naturally there will be no so-called various social forms, and the whole world will become simple, simple and sad.

If you think about it, isn't that exactly what we're in now? Unexpected changes have turned the world upside down, we survivors of shipwrecks, including a small number of other people who have not been affected, have become "immortal" in a broad sense, we remember everything that happened in the present, we are in a higher civilization, but relatively speaking, we are alone, we not only have to think about how to integrate into the current world, we also have to struggle to figure out what happened, and those whose memories have been changed live more purely, They have no cognitive confusion, no fear and worry about the unknown.

Seeing that I was deep in thought again, Long Xin'er was even more confused, and she asked me, "What's wrong with you?" Why am you silent when I ask casually? Do you have something in mind? ”

I shook my head and said, "It's nothing, maybe I'm cranky when I'm older." You just asked me how I would choose if I were Chang'e, I think about it now, if I were Chang'e, I should not choose to leave everything alone and fly to the distant Guanghan Palace, I will choose to stay in the world, although then one day I will face life and death, but in the years before that, I am happy, I will have family, friendship, love, that kind of life is the real life, in the lonely and desolate Guanghan Palace, although I can get eternal life, but what is the meaning of a person's eternal life? ”

"Hmm", Long Xin'er nodded thoughtfully, "If I could choose, I would also make the same choice as you, although a life is short, but sometimes, because life is short, I can appreciate and cherish the beauty in it, but unfortunately I didn't choose." ”

"You don't have a choice?" Long Xin'er's words obviously had other meanings, and I asked, "Why didn't you choose?" What exactly are you going through? ”

Long Xin'er smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just like you, it's just a feeling." Okay, it's not too early, it's time for them to get up and get busy, I'll go back to the house first, and wait for you to come back safely. ”

The conversation in the courtyard in the middle of the night came to an abrupt end, we seemed to talk a lot, and we didn't seem to talk about anything, what did Long Xin'er, a little girl, carry on her shoulders that made her seem so overwhelmed? And what made her choose to bear it silently?

I didn't understand, and I didn't have time to think about it, Uncle Wei and the bearded man got up first, followed by Lin Ruyi, Sister Hua and they all walked out.

The late-night distillery was lively with everyone's busyness, Rockefeller led people to transport the prepared rum to the dock, and it was still the old captain who was waiting for us at the dock, everyone said hello, said goodbye, and set sail in the sparkling waves.

After the boat started, Lin Ruyi asked me, "Did you go out at night?" ”

I said, "Well, the snoring of Sister Hua next door is so noisy that I was awakened alive, and I had no choice but to go to the yard to blow the wind." ”

Sister Hua said unhappily on the side: "Don't talk nonsense, you can hear my snoring through two doors?" Why weren't the girls who slept in the same room with me woken up? I'm afraid you sneaked out in the middle of the night to do something bad, right? ”

I didn't pay attention to Sister Hua, and continued to say to Lin Ruyi: "I plan to talk to Arthur when I go to the Golden Islands this time to see if he has some good ships in his hands, what do you think?" ”

Lin Ruyi asked me, "Are you planning to buy a ship directly for trade?" ”

"Well, the ships on Paradise Island are too small now, and the freight rates for cargo ships to and from the mainland of the Empire and Paradise Island are too high, so I hope to have a big ship of my own, do you remember the refrigerated transport ship we discussed earlier? I think I'll start preparing for this when I get back from the Golden Isles, and it's the end of the year in a few months, and I still owe Jackson a lot of money, so we're going to have to make money a little faster. ”

"But didn't we say that we would spend money to build a new ship?"

"It takes time to build a new ship, I don't know when I will get my hands on such a big ship, and Jackson was still on Paradise Island before, I can borrow money from him, and now he is back because the queen is critically ill, and I don't know when I will be able to see him, so if I can buy a second-hand ship with Arthur, not only can I use it immediately, but I can also save a lot of money."

"But what good ship does he, a pirate leader, have?"

"You don't understand that." Sister Hua interjected on the side and said, "Don't look at the pirates' boats, they don't look big and broken, it's all because they choose such a small boat in order to pursue the target and pursue the fastest speed." In the past, the large merchant ships looted by the pirates were docked in a cave on the north side of the main island, so if you want to buy a ship from Arthur, he still has the goods. ”

Hearing Sister Hua say this, Uncle Wei was also interested, he lit a cigarette and took two puffs, puffed out a few eye circles and said: "If that's the case, then it's the best, we can directly exchange rum with them, and after we have a large merchant ship, we can do more things." ”

Chatting all the way, before you know it, the ship has been at sea for several days. On this day, when I was learning how to steer a boat from Lin Ruyi, Uncle Wei suddenly ran into the cabin and said to us, "There is a ship that is approaching us quickly. ”

I asked, "Is there a ship approaching us?" Could it be passing by? ”

Uncle Wei shook his head, "No, it's just coming for us, but it's strange, it doesn't look like a pirate ship, but rather a merchant ship." ”

"A merchant ship?" The little seahorse in my mind quickly galloped wildly, this place is already very close to the waters of the Golden Islands, and theoretically it is possible to encounter pirates, so if ordinary merchant ships are forced to pass here, they will move at full speed, and will never easily approach any ship, let alone let other ships get close to themselves, what does that merchant ship want to do?

We all went up to the deck and looked into the distance, a merchant ship was really moving towards us quickly, and when I got closer, as soon as I saw the young man in the suit and leather shoes with a goatee on the other ship, I immediately understood how your uncle had met Fanny's grandson again.

Because I met Fanny when I came to the Golden Islands, Lin Ruyi and Uncle Wei also knew him, Lin Ruyi Lin Ruyi shook the gun in his hand and asked me, "Do you want to give him a shot." ”

I waved my hand, "Don't worry, let's see what this grandson wants to do, he should know by now that we're doing business with Arthur." ”

The ship got closer and closer, and Fanny, who was standing on the deck, was surprised to see us, but he had no intention of leaving, but just stood there with his hands in his hands, his face full of obscenity and sinisterness.
