Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1093: Dressing for color blindness
The experience center is located in the center of a group of towering mushrooms, occupying a quiet area in the middle of the bustle; even in the morning when the city is getting busier, you can't hear much noise while sitting here. The bed had been swept clean, but the two cats and the cat still chose to squat on the ground, carrying a box lunch as migrant workers - even the cat doctor didn't get on the bed, because according to it, the puppet master had already gone for a walk for a while. , could come back any time now.
"Don't worry." Although Hu Miaomiao was also sitting on the ground, she was sitting on the hem of Bohemia's large skirt scattered all over the place. Anyway, she refused to let her paws directly step on the ground: "Take a walk. , which is also good for his recovery."
"I'm not worried about him," Lin Sanjiu said angrily, "I'm worried about this guy."
She turned her head and asked: "Hey, are you serious?"
"This guy" blinked blankly, because Doctor Cat sat on her skirt in honor of her, not daring to move.
"I didn't think about it carefully just now," Bohemia admitted, "I just thought it seemed good, so I said it casually... But don't worry, I have already thought about it seriously."
Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief.
"I still want to convert."
"...I wish you all the best." After a pause, Doctor Cat politely extended a paw towards Bohemia. Before he could touch her hand, Lin Sanjiu opened it. .
"What's the matter with you?" She took a long breath, feeling tired in her bones: "Aren't you the ones who tried to prevent me from converting just now? Now I feel like I'm waking up from a dream. Yes, you are..."
After her words fell for a few seconds, Bohemia folded her arms and raised her head, and said softly: "The sky here... is really blue. It's so blue that it seems like it can penetrate your body. ."
"Is this why you want to stay?"
She shook her head: "I... don't want to wander anymore."
Lin Sanjiu could see that the reasons that made her want to stay were far more complicated than what she could put into words - Bohemia was not good at expressing herself, even if she was in the experience center Touching some secret desire, she seemed to be able to find only this simple reason for a while.
"Then let me tell you the reasons why I chose not to convert."
Two pairs of eyes, one green and one gold, looked at her.
"First of all," Lin Sanjiu raised a finger: "The Meijia and the garbage man we just saw in the experience center may indeed have no spores on their bodies at that time. This is the premise."
"How do you know?"
"Because it's not necessary." She shrugged and glanced at Bohemia: "The original mission of the spores was for the spread and reproduction of mushrooms. To use it to brainwash everyone, the amount required must be huge. , doing so would be putting the cart before the horse... Even if you don't consider this, the daily state of the locals here and my state after absorbing the spores are very different."
She felt that she might never forget the experience after absorbing the spores.
She didn't even have the right words to describe the feeling at that time - like a mathematician who had been studying hard all his life finally confirmed a certain conjecture, like a mother hearing the first cry of a newborn child, like a flash of inspiration. Goosebumps suddenly appear on the skin...
It was like opening my eyes for the first time and seeing the vast starry sky.
If we say that the human race has been struggling and groping at a loss since the day it was born, then it must be because humans are pursuing something, something that resonates across the world. It is not money, fame or even love, it is something elusive that is far higher than human beings themselves - what it is, Lin Sanjiu still doesn't know.
And this is the ingenuity of mushrooms.
"They actually don't know what human beings are after - meaning, or truth, whatever you want to call it - but they cleverly avoid this. They tell you that the thing you are pursuing, In fact, it’s the mushroom itself...well, it can also be said to be this lifestyle of living in harmony with the mushroom."
Lin Sanjiu continued to explain: "Of course outsiders won't believe this concept, right? So they will release spores to stimulate a chemical reaction in your brain, making you feel that you have finally found the truth. You have found something that makes your life meaningful. My feeling at that time should be similar to the 'sudden enlightenment' in Buddhism, or like a scientist solving the mystery of the universe... It was a kind of happiness that transcended the ordinary world, and it was really not much. People can resist.”
When she was at her peak, she was thrown into the dungeon and opened up, which abruptly cut off this feeling. Therefore, the "sequelae" was also very strong, and she desperately wanted to find the "truth" that originally belonged to her.
"So, you were deceived by the spores?" Doctor Cat tilted his head and asked.
A cat's world view is completely different, even one that can speak human language. It never worries about the meaning of its life, nor does it become exhausted and empty from chasing various desires. It is simply satisfied with "existing in this world" - from this point of view, Lin Sanjiu envies cats.
"Well, strictly speaking, what the mushrooms do is indeed a lie."
She hesitated for a moment, seeing that Bohemia was listening very attentively, and said after considering: "But it is closer to Zhou Yu hitting Huang Gai, one is willing to hit, and the other is willing to suffer. Human beings themselves don't know what they want. , I don’t know how to get peace and happiness... so the fungus gave a completely substitute answer. You are a cat, you don’t understand the struggle and chaos within our race ~IndoMTL.com~ and the journey along the way in history The price paid."
She paused and said: "But from another perspective, the mushrooms just replaced what humans have been looking for, the illusory thing that no one knows, with something very real and close at hand. There is something that does not exist. Except that this thing is not that thing, its meaning to human beings is the same. To give an inappropriate analogy, it is like a color-blind person who wants to wear clothes. Should you dress him in yellow or blue? Color, in fact, is not important at all. What is important is that color-blind people have clothes to wear, that’s fine. If you were an optimist or a pragmatist, you might still think that the mushrooms saved him a lot of time."
When Bohemia heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "Then why don't the locals need it?"
“I didn’t say it wasn’t necessary,” Lin Sanjiu smiled, “But for the locals, in order for them to obtain spiritual satisfaction and tranquility, they don’t need to use spores all the time. They have been here for generations. Growing up here, whether we call it cultural tradition or education, they are already completely different from us in many aspects."
"So the mushroom really didn't lie." Bohemia seemed to finally let go and her expression relaxed.
Lin Sanjiu lowered his voice: "Not necessarily."
These two words are like ice cubes falling on the skin, shaking the bohemian spirit.
"I think what we felt in the experience center may indeed be the truth...but not the whole truth." She looked up at the blue sky and the various shadows that divided the blue sky. I don’t know if my voice can be captured by the mushrooms that built the entire city: “They conceal some things that they think outsiders will not accept.”
