Chapter 54 postscript

After writing this story, I felt an indescribable boredom in my heart.A scholar has a pen that is like a knife, but the pen is still a pen after all, and cannot be turned into a knife. What is thousands of times sharper than the sharpest knife is time, which can turn lies into truth, beauty into ugliness, and flame into Ashes.When the enthusiasm has become embers, what else can I write?It's only ridiculous to think about it.When the ideals are shattered, some people can rise up, while some people can't recover from the setback. The Zheng Sichu in the writing can still learn a little bit of wisdom, but I am too lazy to write another story.

Poetry can help the poor, this is an old saying of the ancients, because people who love poetry often have a stubborn temper, and they still don’t know how to repent when they encounter a broken head; If you don't pay attention to it, it will be difficult to find the benefits of stock breeding.Although Wang Junchong is not as rich as Wang Junchong among the seven escapes in the bamboo forest, and the mountain is as expensive as the source, but Ji Shuye's detour and Ruan Bubing's release are like learning to walk in Handan, imitating Dongshi, unconsciously gaining some points.If it is easy to write in the human years, then in these eighteen donkey years, writing is like the last goose feather on the back of a camel, which is already overwhelmed.If there is someone to talk with during this journey, it doesn't need to be a close friend, even if you have a lot of friends, as long as you talk well, you can forget some of your fatigue.It's just that when the ears are full of barking and hooting, I'm afraid that it will be difficult before starting, and I don't bother to take another step.

I think of "Life" in the Grimm's fairy tale, which is quite cold and meaningful. It said that when God gave all things a life span of 30 years, donkeys, dogs and monkeys were too many, so they subtracted 18 years from each. Twelve years and ten years, but man thinks that thirty years is too short a lifespan, so God adds those thirty years to man, so man's first thirty years are his own, and he is happy and carefree, and the ten years after thirty are his own. Eight years are the years of a donkey, the burden of life is on the shoulders, and the result is punching and kicking; the next twelve years are the years of a dog, who can only hide in the corner and growl indignantly.The last ten years of his life belonged to the monkey, foolish and bewildered, the object of teasing and ridicule by the children.This story is mixed with a bunch of fairy tales about princes and princesses. If you read it as a child, you would definitely find it boring and ridiculous.Fortunately, I was in college when I first read this story, and all I felt was a sense of loss.Although he is still in the years of the person in the story, he is already feeling confused about the future.

Jin Shengtan wrote in the forged "Water Margin" Shi Naian's preface: "If you are not married at thirty, you should not be married again; if you are not in office at forty, you should not be more official; at fifty, you should not be a family, and at sixty, you should not be married." Going on a trip. Why do you say it? When you use it against the time, things are easy.” In the donkey years with heavy responsibilities, writing some innocuous rubbish stories is probably also “the time is not used”.It's just that when I was writing, I didn't expect that this matter was so easy, I still wrote it down desperately, although it was only worthy of refilling.

Stop and sigh like Dr. Faust: "Wait a minute, you are so beautiful." I read it for the first time when I was a teenager, and started to scribble a ridiculous martial arts story in my notebook. Until now, I don’t know It has been more than 20 years, and it has finally come to an end. I feel disappointed and even desperate for the so-called martial arts.Originally, it was out of season, not to mention that there are audiences who are full of tasteless words, hideous faces, and disgusting audiences, so why not stick to it?
