(Thanks to the "silly joy of reading", thanks to the reward of "I 0 Alsace 0 money", plus more tomorrow),

"A potato minced beef, a grilled salmon, a Caesar salad, a raspberry mille-feuille, a chocolate bloc puffs, and a cup of black coffee and a mixed juice..... Thank you. Xie Minyun finished ordering in fluent and pure French, then closed the menu and handed it to the waiter in a white apron.

Cheng Mozheng pretended to look at the pedestrians on the street with a somewhat restrained posture, in fact, he had been secretly looking at Xie Minyun just now, with a hint of shallow flushing on her fair cheeks, and fine beads of sweat on her forehead, which was a little different from her usual cold and calm her, with a little more fireworks in the world.

At the moment, the two of them are sitting in a café called "Chez Prune" on the corner not far from the Louvre, which is quite old-fashioned, with a high ceiling and soft light, and rows of small blackboards with beautiful French menus.

Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun did not sit in the overcrowded inside, but sat outside under the shade fan, the location of the café is good, not far from the blue satin-like Seine River, on the side is a neat row of French plane trees, the breeze blows, the shadows of the trees sway in the bright sun, it is really leisurely and warm.

The café is a nest for the French, who rest and warm themselves, and countless literati in France are keen to sit in the café and think and discuss life.

"It's a pity that this place is a little far from the god of flowers, otherwise where can we go to sit and feel the residual breath of Sartre, Wilde and Hemingway....." Xie Minyun nodded her chin with one hand, and rested on her thigh with the other, this posture was like a proud cat, looking at her shovel officer coldly.

Wilde and Hemingway are well-known figures, while the French philosopher Jean Paul Sartre is relatively unknown to the public, but Sartre is a strong stroke in the history of French philosophy. In 1943, Sartre published Being and Nothingness, which became the new hegemony that dominated Parisian culture. Only 3 years later, his influence reached its peak. This glorious period, which belonged to the Parisian intellectuals, was centered on Sartre.

When it comes to "Being and Nothingness", a book that marks the completion of Sartre's unique philosophical edifice, people who do not study philosophy do not know it, but when it comes to the phrase "others are hell" that literary and artistic young people are familiar with, you may remember this French philosopher full of literary atmosphere.

Cheng Mo has his own understanding of this difficult and obscure "Being and Nothingness", although he was once a person who fell into despair, he is not pessimistic, "I actually don't agree with Sartre's point of view, life is meaningless is the position of a pessimist." From Schopenhauer to Nietzsche, to Sartre and Camus. They are all constantly thinking about a question, compared to the vast universe, a long time, human beings are too insignificant, since sooner or later they will die, then what is the meaning of living? Sartre's answer is: human life is meaningless, but it is meaningful to find the meaning of life..... But I don't think so, meaning is artificially given, so it's a variable thing that has different demands at different stages of life.... As far as ordinary people are concerned, when we are young, we crave toys, when we grow up, we crave houses, cars, and when we reach middle age, we crave a suitable partner and lovely children...... For me, a glass of warm milk in the morning, turning on my phone to see what interesting things are happening in the world, basking in the sun and opening a book to read a story with twists and turns..... It's all about what it's like to be alive.... There is no need to look for these things, they are all around us..... People who think that there is no point in living are people who are sick....."

"Probably only philosophers who are idle and painful will try their best to think about the 'meaning of life', ordinary people work from 9 to 5, work during the day and become dogs, and watch dramas, play games, fall in love, and take care of children at night、..... There are a lot of interesting things to do, and on top of that, there are a lot of things that have to be done about survival, and who would think about such a boring question? So this book is to solve the problem of a certain part of the people's mind. Sartre's theory has long been derived, enriched, and deepened by existentialist psychologists, and applied to solve human psychological problems..... Isn't it 'psychology' that is a derivation of philosophy!" Xie Minyun put his hand on his knee on the table, and gently and rhythmically tapped the glass panel, and the voice that should speak to her was really a moving music.

Then the two of them discussed Sartre for a long time until drinks and food were served.

Xie Minyun pondered for a while and said: "Actually, this book should be viewed in the original version, I think whether it is the version of the triptych or Chen Xuanliang's translation, because of grammatical reasons, it is not so smooth, so it is more difficult to read, I think Sartre's thought should be understood as: the important thing is not the result of finding meaning, but the process of finding meaning, because in the endless search, you temporarily grasp the meaning itself, temporarily control the ..... of life"

"Listening to you say this, it may indeed be that the translation is not very accurate, so I have misreads, I am not very good at French, I don't know how the English translation is?"

"The English is translated by Hazel Barnes, which is much better than the Chinese version, in fact, I still recommend that you read the French original, if you don't understand anything, you can ask me, just enough I can repay the human ..... you taught me psychology"

Cheng Mo shook his head, "Thank you, I teach you psychology in the hope that you can keep Du Leng secret, so you don't owe me anything, although there are a little fallacies and inconsistencies, there should be no problem with me taking the original version and the translated version against each other, in fact, I don't have a lot of interest in Sartre, and I probably won't take it too seriously.... It's a good reason to learn French. ”

Xie Minyun didn't force it, "I still like your attitude to life, it's much more positive and optimistic than I imagined, I thought people like you must be pessimistic and negative! I didn't expect you to always surprise me....."

Saying that, Xie Minyun cut half of the grilled salmon on his plate and put it on Cheng Mo's plate with a fork, "You can also taste it, the grilled salmon here tastes good, in exchange, you want to give me some potatoes and beef mince." ”

Eating food on the same plate is a very intimate act in Cheng Mo's opinion, second only to the indirect kissing act of drinking the same bottle of water, so Cheng Mo hesitated, "If you don't mind, then I'll cut you a little bit that hasn't been touched here." ”

"Of course I don't mind, I thought about it when I ordered, I can't finish eating two servings by myself, but I want to eat both, and it's perfect to have someone like you who is not a picky eater to accompany me...."

Cheng Mo carefully cut off a large piece of pizza-like potato and beef mince, protected it with a spoon and knife, and put it into Xie Minyun's white disk.

Xie Minyun said lightly: "Thank you." On the surface, there is nothing unusual, but in fact, she is a little shy inside, this is the first time she has shared food with others, and it always feels a little weird, but she can't say what is strange, so she can only pretend to eat it casually.

This job is much more difficult for Cheng Mo than assisting Fu Yuanzhuo to cheat during the final exam, seeing Xie Minyun asking for a small spoon, eating potato and beef mince like ice cream, Cheng Mo hurriedly lowered his head slightly, looked at the food on his plate seriously, and didn't dare to look at Xie Minyun.

"By the way, weren't we talking about reptilian people in the first place?" Cheng Mo broke the subtle silence caused by the exchange of food between the two people, this was the first time he wanted to cater to others in order to avoid embarrassment, in fact, he never minded if the atmosphere would be bad, of course, he was still very interested in the reptilian thing.

Xie Minyun swallowed the potato and beef minced in his mouth, and took a small sip of lemonade, "Reptiles, also known as lizard people, are considered to be extraterrestrial creatures living on the earth, because some people who are interested in confusing and listening to the smear, it is considered to be a non-existent thing, in fact, I don't think it is accurate to translate them as reptilian people or lizard people, although they are indeed covered in scales and have eyes like lizards..... But there's another creature that's just like them, and that's—"

"Snake!"

"Snake!"

The two of them said in unison.

Xie Minyun hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, "You also thought of it! Although I went to the National Museum of Iraq and couldn't see any precious materials, I still found some video materials, which have photos of lithographs drawn during the Sumerian civilization, as well as some sculptures about the Anunnaki, in fact, in the ancient Mesopotamian civilization, the word used to describe the ancient Anunnaki people in the past was 'SIR', which translates to mean 'dragon' or' 'Big Snake', it's actually more reasonable to call them snake people or dragon people, as for why they are called reptilian people or lizard people, I don't know, I guess I don't expect people to have more associations...."

In the Bible, the serpent is the embodiment of Satan the Devil, the cause of human suffering and sin, and the serpent's lies caused Adam and Eve to steal the forbidden fruit and thus lose the Garden of Eden forever..... In addition, there is the god Quetzalcoatl, which is worshiped by the Americans, and the most amazing of our Chinese people, Fuxi and Nuwa, who are also human-headed snakes..... I have seen a Tang Dynasty silk painting unearthed in 1967 in the tomb of Astana No. 76 in Tulu Pan, in the picture, Fuxi Nuwa has the sun on her head, her feet on the moon, and the stars behind her, and the constellations are faintly visible, among them, there are several constellations that cannot be seen at all now, such as the constellation of an isosceles triangle composed of ten stars, which is a little incredible, Fuxi and Nuwa in the magnificent cosmic background, with extremely strange endings, what shocked me is that the tails that are intertwined with each other have long exceeded the dimension of mythology, and the shape and lines of the tail are obviously suggesting human beings, which is the key to human reproduction- DNA, the molecular structure of the double helix of deoxyribonucleic acid, the basic genetic material of living organisms..... In 1983, the Chinese edition of UNESCO's magazine "International Social Sciences" was used as a trial issue to publish this ancient painting on the front page of the illustration of "Transforming All Things", which made this picture instantly shake the world.....

"Do you want to see if in our Huaxia, the shape of the dragon is not only like a snake, but also a little like a lizard.... And what do we Chinese people call ourselves? Descendants of the dragon, descendants of the dragon..... In addition, what is even more incredible is that in "Fuxi Nuwa's Picture", Nuwa is holding something like a sub-gauge in her hand, while Fuxi is holding something like a curved ruler in her hand..... The composition is almost the same as the composition of the representative coat of arms of Freemasonry......"

Cheng Mo listened to Xie Minyun's eloquent words, completely stunned, he knew some things, but he really didn't know the one in "Fuxi Nuwa", thinking of his "Ouroboros" and the same badge as the "Taiji Dragon" worn by Du Leng that day on the rooftop, Cheng Mo didn't know what the world should be like, originally he thought that the Ouroboros watch was magical enough, but after digging deeper, it seemed that behind this was a huge unimaginable fact.....

This fact is even more fantastical than science fiction.

Cheng Mo felt a little dry in his throat for the first time, "Then how much do you know about Freemasonry?"

Xie Minyun tilted his head and thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Freemasonry? I don't know much, I only know that at the end of 1759, the Swedish East India Company's Prince Carl arrived in Yangcheng, and the Freemasons on the ship landed and held a meeting, which is the earliest record of Freemasonry activities in China. In 1767, the 32nd year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, the Freemasons opened the 407th branch of the English General Association in Yangcheng, which was still dominated by foreigners at that time..... During the Sino-Japanese War, many Chinese joined Freemasonry, and during the Japanese occupation of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese banned Freemasonic activities, but did not prevent the growth of Freemasonry in our country, and by the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, almost all the members of the six Filipino Freemasonry Branches were Chinese, and initiated the establishment of the Grand Lodge of China. However, all this came to an abrupt end in 1952, and the Freemasons in China were shut down, and only Hong Kong still existed..... But in fact, the potential influence of Freemasonry in our country is not small, there is a famous family that is a Freemason, and they have made a lot of efforts since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States....."

"Which family?"

Xie Minyun was about to answer, when a female voice sounded: "XIE, I guessed you would come here, this can't be your boyfriend, right?"

Cheng Mo followed the sound and looked at a pair of young foreign men and women standing under a tall French plane tree, the girl was plump, wearing a burgundy skirt and a blond shawl.

The boy is tall and handsome, with chestnut curly hair, with a bit of Italian looks, rough and not losing fineness, his cuffs, is a gold and blue coat of arms, the center of the coat of arms is the French Legion of Honor, surrounded by a circle of golden bees, and at the top of the coat of arms is a blue crown of princes....
