Lanli felt that he had had a very long dream. The dream was so long that he traversed time and space, and also the universe, wandering freely in the long river of time.
He dreamed of Chu Jiashu and Ding Yanan; He dreamed of Langley hall and "gravity"; He dreamed about Heather cross, about the beast
Rebirth, crossing, life changing, fate reincarnation, chaos and chaos in the tunnel of time and space burst out incredible energy, everything is disordered, mixed, blurred, hazy, as if all are real, but as if all are false, just like——
It's like walking through the vast universe, standing at the height of the creator, overlooking the birth and transformation of human beings, the birth and death of creatures, and the rise and fall of the earth. He is so small, but so grand.
Small and majestic, this is a pair of contradictory antonyms, but incomparably harmonious blend together, opened up a new vision.
Langley's memory was a little blurred. He was not sure which book he read from, ancient Greek philosopher, ancient Roman astronomer, or some ordinary person. But he once understood such a point of view
The universe is endless and boundless, and it can't touch the limit at all; The only thing that can accomplish the exploration is the human mind.
Those ignorant and ordinary human beings, who firmly confine their thoughts in one heaven and earth, refuse to accept the vastness of the world and the vastness of the universe, will be doomed to become a tiny dust in the long river of time; Only when we really open our eyes and mind can we find eternity.
Lanli can understand the core idea of these words.
Because he himself is experiencing it. Only when he has witnessed the turbulent sea can he understand the vastness of the earth; Only by experiencing the cultural differences can we understand the diversity of nations; Only after experiencing group differences can we understand the complexity of the world.
Just like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, it has not really come all the way. It is always just a "special disease" in the news or hearsay. It has never been able to feel and understand. It is real. That's true for blacks, for gays, for women, and for patients with rare diseases.
Prejudice comes from ignorance as well as imprisonment.
Lanli deeply understood this. However, until today, when he really felt the vastness of the world, the emptiness of the sky and the vastness of the universe, lanli completely opened the door of his thought and peeped at the height of another dimension.
"If you don't go out and have a look, you'll think this is the world." -“ Paradise cinema.
The dream is too real, the reality is too illusory, completely broke all the barriers of time and space, so that lanli lost in the gap between time and space, unable to find the way back.
Slowly opening his eyes, he didn't know how long he had been in a coma - or how long he had been sleeping, or that he had been awake all the time, and now he just went from one dream to another, just like the dream structure layer by layer in "Inception", which was totally impossible to judge.
"Langley, you're awake!"
Nathan's chubby face appeared in the sight, and he still had a piece of cheese cake in his hand. There was a faint aroma of black tea in the room. It was not good black tea, but Lipton's black tea bag. The faint aroma was almost negligible.
Nathan's face showed the expression of happiness and joy, almost jumping up in ecstasy, and his eyes were even more vivid. If it wasn't for the cake crumbs in the corner of his mouth, Lan Li would have been moved to tears.
"Roy, Langley is awake! Roy
Nathan turned his head, yelled toward the door, then looked back again and asked eagerly, "are you hungry? You must be hungry. You've been sleeping for so long. Now there's nothing in your stomach. The nutrient solution doesn't work at all. What do you want to eat now? "
Involuntarily, the corner of lanli's mouth outlined a light radian. Even if the mind is still in a daze, unable to sort out thoughts, or even no way to think, but still can't help laughing.
First Roy, then Alfonso, then the doctor... In less than three minutes, the whole room was full of people; But in less than two minutes, Roy and Nathan began to rush, and the crowd swarmed out of the room, leaving only the doctor.
Even if he just lay on the bed of his room and didn't see it with his own eyes, lanli could hear the commotion outside the door and picture the scene in the corridor in his mind. It seemed that the whole photography base was agitated and everyone gathered at the door of his room at the same time. Such a lively crowd is really spectacular.
The doctor made a simple examination and confirmed that lanli's physical condition was not seriously affected. He suggested that he should start to eat some liquid food now, and then start to eat solid food after his stomach was slightly adapted to the food. In addition, there was no problem. Everything was OK. As long as lanli thought he was ready, he could start his daily work.
To be honest, lanli has a lot of opinions about the western definition of "liquid food". It seems that he doesn't know whether it's rice paste or oatmeal porridge. It's as sticky as vomit, not to mention swallowing. He just stirs it with a spoon, as if a golden cudgel is stirring his stomach.
However, if you think about it carefully, the liquid food in the ward is also a virtue, which is hard to swallow. For the food in front of him, lanli has no more complaints, but... Why does he want to eat liquid food? Isn't he in good health? No problem? Liquid food? Is that exaggeration?
"If you keep stirring like this, I'm sure it won't get easier to swallow, it will only make things worse." A cold voice came from the door of the room. Looking up, he saw Rooney Marla in a light yellow sweater, with a faint smile on her face and bright and deep eyes, which made him think of the stars.
Lanli raised his head and looked at Rooney quietly. He didn't speak. He just filled a spoonful of liquid food with a spoon and raised it high. Then he saw the thick food spilling out and sliding down from the spoon bit by bit. It was really hard to get close to, let alone put it in his mouth.
Lu Ni couldn't help smiling, frowning slightly, shaking her head in horror, then pointing to Lan Li, "you're the one who needs to eat, not me. I think your stomach is protesting now? " There was a hint of schadenfreude in his voice, but after laughing, the corners of his mouth slowly came down, and he didn't continue to speak.
Instead of continuing to resist, Lan Li scooped up the liquid food and put it into his mouth. The taste buds of the tongue seem to have fallen asleep and can't taste a single taste, which once again awakens the memories in the mind. Those memories about Chu Jiashu are too familiar with the taste, so it's still unclear to distinguish the dream from the reality, the past and the present.
LUNI watched lanli's action quietly. Even as a bystander, the food with unknown body made people frown. However, as a party, lanli seemed to take it for granted to finish eating. His slow action created an illusion, as if he had been used to this terrible liquid food for a long time.
"So, has Ryan stone found the goal of survival and the meaning of life?"
LUNI's questions were gentle and peaceful. Her eyes were full of concentration and excitement. However, they exploded in lanli's ears like thunder. The endless fragments of memory rushed to her and filled her brain in an instant. Then she broke the balance and broke the shackles. All the chaos between reality and dream dissipated, and the sense of reality returned to her body.
Reality. Dreams. past times. Now? Chu Jiashu. Langley hall.
Everything became clear, and his fingertips curled up slightly, feeling the warmth of his palm: he was Chu Jiashu, and now he is lanli hall; Ward, universe, that's a dream, crew, light box, this is reality. Just now that endless dream, now finally wake up.
Lenley, he's lenley. As an actor, lanli pursues the artistic dream and embraces freedom. After experiencing despair and predicament, he is reborn again, just like Ryan stone who breaks through the shackles, re perceives the meaning of life and finds the origin of life again.
In the story of gravity, Ryan goes through three stages, from fighting, to giving up, and then to fighting.
In the vastness of the universe, desperate loneliness killed all the possibilities of survival, and Ryan chose to give up; But at the end of his life, he once again found the starting point of life, from his family, from himself, from his dream, and even from the meaning of life, which made him break through the shackles and launch a desperate escape, just to feel the gravity again.
The transition from the second stage to the third stage is extremely complex, profound and important. It is in order to realize this that Lan Li trapped himself in the "space universe" created by the light box.
After a long struggle and pain, lanli became Ryan, or more accurately, Ryan became lanli. In the two characters, lanli really felt the resonance, not just the acting skills of the Methodist School, but the brand from the deep soul, breaking the barriers of time and space and illusion, and integrating into one.
After calming down, all the experience surged up again vividly, which made people savor it carefully. Then, the corners of the mouth rose slightly. Even though the liquid food in the mouth was still thick and tasteless, the pure joy from the deep soul still began to erupt.
"Yes, I found it." Lanli met Rooney's eyes and said yes with a smile.
