Chapter 38: Does Darkness Exist?

A variety of discomforts occur at the same time, and the body of the missing one keeps swinging because of the sudden temperature difference in the climate......

He was in a trance, he didn't know how to rest, he just kept going.

"Ahh

Less struggle, the faster you sink into the quagmire, the deeper you fall.

The smell of rancid smell and the crocodile's breath permeated the air, and this life-and-death moment made Shaoyi wake up suddenly, not daring to be careless.

Fortunately, the five-year-old is light, and he has realized that as long as he does not move, he can slow down the speed of being swallowed by the swamp.

The village chief always said that there is no endless road, and Shaoyi stabilized his mind, and if he could buy time to come up with a plan to get out at this time, it would be far better than panicking.

Shaoyi searched in his mind for a way to help. Climb out, it's not feasible. I dragged the rattan out, but it was empty, and there was nothing to reach.

When the mire didn't reach Shaoyi's chest, Shaoyi felt like it had been wrapped in slippery and greedy mud, and it was being swallowed up little by little...... As a result of this pressure on the breathing, the body temperature begins to gradually cool and the heart beats suddenly......

Close your eyes as soon as you don't close, or, wait for death!

There is a subtle communication that continues in the slightest strand of ......

Somehow, Shaoyi, who was on the verge of fainting, thought of Shanbagong, who could always ask for things from the sky, and always be able to win in danger.

This wisp of communication, just like the way Shanba Gong and himself once communicated, was carried out by Shaoyi slowly while reminiscing.

Shaoyi concentrated, ignoring the imminent drowning of the swamp, he gently called out repeatedly with his divine sense, and at this time, the object of his communication was nature.

In meditation, you have become one with nature, sharing joy and breathing......

Suddenly, Shaoyi felt a loosening of his body, and the vicious swamp actually loosened his mouth, and spit out Shaoyi, who was covered in mud.

If the swamp has just devoured itself, then, if it eats people, can the swamp be judged to be evil?

At the moment just now, under the effect of communication, the swamp made Shaoyi a part of its own body, so it suddenly let go of Shaoyi and let go of a part of itself.

Drowning the less one, devouring the less one, or treating the less one as one, and easily letting go of the less one...... For the swamp, these actions are just his likes and dislikes.

If even the swamp cannibalism can't be concluded that it is an authentic and pure evil guy because of this, then, in this world, there really must be a difference between good and evil?

One less has a doubt......

As soon as Shaoyi, who was lying on the edge of the quagmire, was out of danger of his life, he had already forgotten the crisis, but fell into deep thought.

Unconsciously, Shaoyi suddenly recalled a conversation with the village chief not long ago-

"One less, it's time to sleep, hehehe, why are you still looking at the stars, you can't see enough?"

"Village chief, do you say, all things in this world, they are really created by God?"

"There will be gods in distant places. One less let me ask you, does the cold exist?"

"Of course it exists, otherwise how can we add padded jackets in winter?!"

"We feel cold because of the lack of heat. In winter, the weather is cold, which is due to the decrease in the amount of heat energy that can be obtained between heaven and earth. One less, let me ask you again, does darkness exist?"

"Of course it is, but as soon as it gets dark, you can't see anything. ”

"Just like the truth of cold, darkness means that there is no light around you. ”

"Village Chief, you let me think about it, it's ...... There is some truth. ”

"So, by analogy, evil is a word coined by man. The gods did not create evil, but evil is the result of the ungodliness of the human heart and the lack of divine love in the heart, just as cold comes from the absence of heat, and darkness comes from the absence of light. ”

......

"What are you thinking, one less, why don't you speak? It's not early, let's not go back to the house to sleep, the female overseer—Goo is about to come out and shout." ”

"Village chief, I mean, when I grow up, I will look for light and heat, to accumulate love, so that if I bring love back, won't I not be afraid of evil?"

"Hahaha-"

......

The memories of the village chief's words made Shaoyi suddenly realize.

After a few days, the chirping of the birds and the noise of the monkeys no longer bothered Shaoyi as before. On the contrary, Shaoyi happily built a lot of wooden bird houses, and planted them on the big trees one by one, waiting for the birds to come and nest.

Shaoyi repeatedly taught a nagging macaw to recite the "Jackfruit Sutra", in case he lost the care of faith in the forest after he left. It's a pity that the parrot is enthusiastic and doesn't buy it.

Shaoyi also planted many wooden fences at the edge of the swamp to help the small animals avoid being eaten by the swamp.

He also sprinkled some man-eating seeds in the swamp, hoping that the swamp would have a symbiosis with super reproductive ability and super combat ability.

It's time to leave the tropical jungle, and Shaoyi has never been more nostalgic for a piece of land than he is now. Nevertheless, he resolutely embarked on the journey.

Walking along the ridge of the high mountain, after walking for several days, he found that he had entered a deeper field, and he could see that the nearby mountain was covered with thick snow, and the snow was white, and it looked cold.

Looking at this situation, if he can't find the mountain pass to get out, he will be trapped here all summer.

And there was no turning back for him now, as the volcano behind him was moving again, and when he looked back from the mountain, the active volcano in the distance had swallowed up the rainforest, and the lava had flowed out of the ground, flooding the road that had come for a while.

The only thing you can do is to find the pass leading to the mountain as quickly as possible.

Looking ahead for two days in a row, Shaoyi did not get a satisfactory harvest.

The paths he could find were too high and slippery to either climb cliffs or go down deep ravines, and he couldn't pass safely without paying a life-threatening price.

Ahead, as the mountains get higher and higher, a blizzard is encroaching on the summits of the distant mountains.

Seeing that he couldn't find a mountain pass that he could safely pass through for a while, he chose to go down the mountain. Halfway up the mountain, Shaoyi set up a makeshift camp in a small valley.

Nibbling on dried bamboo shoots brought from the rainforest, he began to sew a pair of snowshoes over the snowy mountains with rabbit skin and rattan. The key is to weave the snowshoes bigger and denser than usual to cope with the waist-deep snow.

After staying in this way for three or five days, the one less person prepared all the items and tools such as the food to be eaten on the road and the stone claws to climb the mountain.

Just when Shaoyi was full of confidence and was about to climb over the snowy mountain, he suddenly felt that he was sick, to be exact, a heart disease.

A strong sense of loneliness enveloped everything, tormenting him like a demon in his heart, and even his usual dialogue and understanding with nature were isolated by loneliness.

Shaoyi clearly knows that if he cannot discern and overcome loneliness, then loneliness will overcome him.

However, the plan to hit the road could not be delayed.

Before dawn, he set off to walk up the mountain, which at first was relatively easy to climb, and most of the snow on the rocky ground was swept away by the strong wind, revealing the mountain path.

After spending most of the day climbing, Shaoyi finally reached the bottom of the mountain pass, and at this time, the setting sun stretched his staggering figure for a long time, and the sky was inexplicably dark......

After settling in the camp, Shaoyi once again fell into the trap of loneliness. The night struck, giving him the opportunity to huddle quietly alone and sort out his experience-

When I came out of Dayanhe Village, I began to live alone, not to mention how happy I was with that excitement.

However, as the novelty faded, Shaoyi felt lonely like never before.

Whenever one discovers something and gains something, it can't find anyone to share. He had to speak to the macaw, shouting at the swamp, at the mountains, and even at his own shadow.

This sense of loneliness was only occasionally visited at night, and the pressure of survival was tense all day during the day, which made it easy for Shaoyi to forget his loss.

But at night, a man accompanied the terrible wolf howl in the distance, and the loneliness followed him like a shadow, like an inseparable twin, and told him, "Oh, you poor worm, you are alone."

As loneliness becomes more frequent, especially when the earth is quiet and the campfire is burning alone in the wilderness, you will find yourself deliberately busy with chores to distract yourself and forget about loneliness.

Increasingly, he devoted his mental and physical strength to fighting loneliness, sometimes even dissolving this loneliness by talking to himself, coaxing himself to be so busy that he had no time to taste loneliness.

As if a prisoner who was voluntarily imprisoned in a cage, he seemed to be more and more inseparable from the feeling of loneliness. Because in extreme loneliness, there will be a kind of loneliness and soul-destroying beauty. In pursuit of this helpless, apocalyptic beauty, Shaoyi actually allowed himself to experience loneliness, which led to even worse symptoms: he had some kind of visual and auditory hallucinations.

The deep loneliness is like a dose of marijuana, which makes Shaoyi painful and willing, and he knows that if he allows himself to immerse himself in it, the consequence will be to kill himself in loneliness, to be closed in his heart, and to no longer face the outside world.

Seeing the loneliness with tenacious vitality, about to occupy Shaoyi's body and Shaoyi's mind, Shaoyi decided to turn back home, what ninety-nine eighty-one days, what if he failed!

I'm going to the doctor, I'm going to get rid of loneliness. I want to live!

Since you have given up the eighty-one day drill in the mountains, you should rush home as soon as possible.

Shaoyi decided to set off early the next morning, hurried back to Dayanhe Village, and found a way to treat himself.

The next day, Shaoyi woke up in a beautiful morning.

The sun shines on the top of the high mountains, the white snow-capped mountains, the blue atmosphere, everything is high and wide.

The air is pure and peaceful, with only a slight hint of coolness.

Perhaps because of the sunny weather, he felt the warmth of the sun, and he heard the sound of the flying roc flapping its wings.

Yesterday's decision is shaken at this moment.

Obviously, the mountains are calling in front, and all things are living in this cold place and leaving traces that make people stop, all of which makes Shaoyi can't help but sit in front of the tent and admire the beautiful scenery around him.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the top of the snow-capped mountains, shining like the sun shining on the tips of the cooing hair.

The sun gave him some kind of confidence, and Shaoyi suddenly had an answer,
