活动变人形精选段落

"What? You want a car? No, not a foreign car. This foreign car driver is so old, pulling the cart with his feeble body. And who is riding in the car? A young and healthy person with a ruddy complexion. Its like a bull or horse pulling a cart with a person, and the person is just like a beast of burden. What kind of era, country, and city is this?

He turned back to the foreign car driver, who was dressed in rags, and entered Fengsheng alley. There were all kinds of large and small advertisements posted on the walls, printed and handwritten, unique advertisements that could only be found here. There was an advertisement for Rendan capsules with a picture of a Japanese man with a goatee, an advertisement for Shouxing milk powder, an advertisement for the Berlin Hospital specialized in treating venereal diseases outside the Qianmen Gate, as well as advertisements for Liu Tie口s divination and face reading. All the ads and posters looked desperate and pitiful. A female beggar sat next to the wall under the advertisement, and her face covered in black mud frightened him. She was exposing her chest, revealing shell-like black marks on her skin that made it hard to believe it was human. Even more shocking was an elderly female beggar with four children, two boys and two girls. The poorer they were, the more children they had. They were born to suffer and live in poverty. More people were poor; more people were suffering. "My four children have nothing to eat, kind sir or madam! Please give them something to eat!"

This was his home, a home that had accumulated thousands of years of barbarism, cruelty, ignorance, and filth... and he, the elegant and lively young gentleman of this turbid world, loved life, yearned for civilization, pursued love and happiness...why wasnt he born in Paris, Vienna, Berlin, New York, Geneva, Venice, London, or Moscow? Why did he have to be born on the alkaline lands of Mengguantun-Taucun, where people used their feet to rub "sheep eggs"? Why did he have to attend middle school in the county, university in Beijing, and study abroad in Europe, learning not only English but also Japanese and German? If he were to become a local tycoon like his uncle and cousin, smoking big cigars, marrying concubines, playing cards, keeping birds in cages, and spitting everywhere, wouldnt he be happier than he is now? Why did he have to live in such an era, such a place? He could not fight against Japan, nor could he afford to collaborate with Japan. He could not divorce, nor could he bear to settle down with Jingyi as she wished. He could not leave China, nor could he get rid of all the bad habits of Chinese rural people. He could not willingly become a pure Chinese person.

Finally, Ni Wucheng had a sudden inspiration and thought of the trick that men in Mengguantun-Taucun area used against women: "Im going to take off my pants!" he shouted, gesturing at the same time. And this tactic worked. Three women immediately ran away and could not chase them back. He smiled, feeling a sense of revenge. It was a kind of savage and ugly pleasure.

It is a uniquely Chinese concept to regard illness as beauty, and to regard oppression, depression, and abuse as beauty. Thats why they liked bound feet, "diseased" plum blossoms in bonsai, and "consumptive" Lin Daiyu and "mentally unstable" Du Liniang. When will Chinese girls have the physique and dignity of an athlete?

Alas, why in the short span of fewer than a hundred years, the dignified lords of all creatures became the slaves of chance, the playthings of chance, and the sacrifices of chance?

In the story of the Fisherman and the Demon in the Arabian Nights, the demon was trapped in a bottle and sank to the bottom of the sea. In the first fifty thousand years, he promised to give all the gold in the world to whoever saved him. After fifty thousand years of solitude, no one came to his rescue. In the next fifty thousand years, the devil thought to himself, "If someone saves me, Ill give him all the jewels in the world." After another fifty thousand years of solitude, no one paid attention to him. Hope turned to despair, and despair turned to anger. This is Hegels dialectics, and it has been proven by Pavlovs psychological experiments. After waiting in the bottle for a painful, hopeless, and fruitless one hundred thousand years, the demon decided, "Whoever saves me, I will eat them!" The last sentence was spoken with great fervor. He continued, "Neglect and making others wait in vain is the most serious crime against human feelings. It is inhumane..."
