Chapter 207 Sunday Intentions
This seems to be Sunday's inner world, but in fact nothing has changed around here.
Sunday Introduction: "This is not any corner of Pinocchio's dream. This is my inner world."
"The reason why the scene before you has not changed is because your consciousness has extracted similar concepts to complete it."
Jizi asked, "Did you do the same thing to Walter?"
Sunday explained: "This is a kind of 'tuning', which is more powerful and requires more effort."
"Through tuning, you can understand my emotions more intuitively, which also means that I will hide nothing from you."
"Next, I would like to invite everyone to look at the big screen. Our journey here starts from here."
"From here on, you will see many choices I have made. I have selected some of them to share with you."
"I think that after experiencing the same predicament, you will understand my thoughts."
Then, Sunday showed everyone his past.
Robin and Sunday lost their mother when they were young. After they suffered from the cancer of all worlds, they were adopted by Gopher, a member of the Pinocchio family.
After dinner one day, the brother and sister accidentally found an abandoned little Harmony Pigeon in the courtyard of Gopherwood. The little Harmony Pigeon was dying, its feathers had not even grown fully, and it could not sing.
The winter of that year was very cold. The winds in the courtyard were very strong at night, and there were many poisonous insects and wild beasts.
Sunday: "There is no doubt that if the chick is left in the yard, it will never survive until spring. So I suggested taking it back, putting it on the wooden stand in front of the window, and asking adults to build a birdcage."
"We agreed to release it back into the sky when it could fly on its own. Unfortunately, we never expected that the bird's fate had already been determined before that—"
"Its fate is up to us."
Sunday: "Now, I will give you the right to choose. Faced with this situation, what will you choose?"
"Should we adopt our original plan and use soft cushions to build a nest for the little Harmony Pigeons on the spot?"
"Or would you choose to build a birdcage for it and raise it carefully in a warm house?"
"I look forward to your answers."
It seems that Sunday really doesn't intend to imprison me. Since he wants to play the quiz game, he might as well play with him.
Everyone agreed to build a birdcage.
Sunday nodded: "I am glad to see that you made the same choice as we did back then. Let me reveal the result of this choice."
"We raised it carefully, prepared fine food every day, and combed its feathers. Later, on the day the robin left Pinocchio, we opened the cage door and let it return to the sky."
"I watched it from the window for a long time, about three days. During those long three days, the little Harmony Pigeon tried again and again to spread its wings, fly into the sky, and then fall to the ground, over and over again."
"Finally, on the 137th attempt, it succeeded. But this attempt was not perfect... After flying shakily for a while, it fell to the ground because it could not accurately grasp the direction of the air flow."
"The fall completely broke its wings. It struggled in my arms, but to no avail, and eventually met with a painful death. And our careful care, love and high hopes for it, at this moment, became the driving force behind its demise."
According to Su Qiankun's idea, there is no problem in making a birdcage. When the little Harmonious Pigeon's strength and health are almost recovered, he can open the birdcage and let it slowly learn to fly in a limited space.
This process takes one to two weeks, and all you need to do is give it enough patience and encouragement...
Sunday: "Okay, let's move on to the second choice."
This story happened during Sunday's tenure as "Door". Door is a unique position of the Oak family, responsible for listening to the confusion and bewilderment of the residents of the dreamland and giving them corresponding guidance.
It was also during that time that Sunday was able to listen to the voices from all sides of his dreams: joy, sorrow, arrogance, regret... The complex human nature weaves the world, and he was fortunate enough to get a glimpse of it.
He was a dream chaser and a stowaway. Like everyone else, he came to Pinocchio with a yearning for a better life, but the price he paid was enough to be called "giving everything" for ordinary people.
Sunday: "He told me, 'Sell everything you can't sell' - the house, the land, the two children... He said he couldn't afford to support them, and being a slave would at least give him a living."
"He had made a plan to redeem the child after he became rich and share Pinocchio's dream. Unfortunately, his smuggling plan was a bit clumsy and was sniffed out by those stubborn hounds."
"After hearing the story of this dream chaser, I immediately asked the hound family to stop hunting so that he could live in peace. Unfortunately, my vision was too short-sighted. I never thought that this self-righteous act of kindness would lead to bitter consequences in the future..."
"The answer will be announced later. Now, I hope you will make your choice—"
"Is it to make the same decision as mine and convince the Hound Family to stop the search so that the dream chaser can survive and realize his wish?"
Everyone unanimously chose the hound family to stop the search.
Sunday: "I am honored to see that you have made the same decision. Out of respect, I will tell you what bad consequences my decision brought upon me..."
"We are entering the third decision."
After Gopher became the dream master of Pinocchio, Sunday also became the head of the Oak family, and Robin had gone to the Epseron galaxy to become a famous singer.
One day, Sunday received a letter from the robin from Gopherwood, in which he learned that the robin was injured by a stray bullet in the neck while trying to spread "harmony" through singing to save lives on the planet.
This made Sunday very angry.
Sunday: "Now, do you know why she always wears such complicated necklaces?"
March 7: "How could this happen....Miss Robin..."
Sunday: "It's a thing of the past, you don't have to worry about it. I share this only to hope that you understand the limitations and difficulties of "harmony". No matter how great the vision of "helping the weak with the strong" is, it is often just wishful thinking. "
"Similarly, I have prepared one last question for you, one last choice. But don't worry, this choice will not bring any heavy consequences."
"In fact, nothing will happen. Because this is just a fantasy, a nightmare that has haunted me for countless nights - if you have the opportunity to make the same choice as me..."
"Will you still support Robin on his journey to "Harmony"? "
Everyone made a choice.
Sunday: "Oh... I see. I understand what you all mean."
"I raise these questions only to clarify one thing: Pinocchio's predicament cannot be saved by "harmony". The only way to truly build a beautiful dream paradise is to force the weak "order". "
"I know how painful it is when people are tortured, how confused they are when they lose their way, how frustrated they are when things don't go as they wish...even how desperate they are. All of this makes me suffer, because this is not "happiness" at all."
"We must teach the weak how to live happily. And this "life" is not something that celebrities and nobles talk about, but in an absolute sense, it is the way of survival for human beings."
Liuying asked: "In your opinion, what does it mean to live happily?"
Sunday: "Good question. Human consciousness is essentially an illusion, a prison called "self-worth". People are misled by this illusion and make mistakes, but the consequences are borne by external things. "
"When the mistakes are piled up one after another among the people and cannot be traced back, these prisons together form a prison, a natural law called "survival of the fittest." "
"And 'nature' is always accompanied by plunder and sacrifice... its opposite is called 'order'."
“This is exactly what I want to do: to bring the happiness of all living beings under a single “order”. People no longer have to make bitter choices, no longer have to face the weaknesses of human nature, and abandon the bad habits of beasts, so that they can build a paradise for humans.”
"It's too abstract to just describe the idea, so let me give you a simple example. You may know that in some worlds there is a social operation system called "two-day weekend" or "three-day weekend."
"During the hard-earned rest day, people can relieve themselves from the pressure of life and return to the peace of mind."
“Only on days like this can people not have to face the law of the jungle and can “live happily” in these few short days. It’s a pity that two or three days and nights are still too short compared to the long life.”
In Sunday's view, the ideal social system should be seven days off, and the day after Sunday would be the second, third, or even forever Sunday.
This is what the new world looks like, a day of eternal peace with nothing to do.
Sunday continued: “Thus, everyone can return to his or her original place in Paradise.”
"Some people gaze at the Milky Way, concentrating on calculating the distance from the starting point of the Milky Way track of the isolated world "Pegana" to us. Some people hug each other in the corner, without having to bear extra responsibilities..."
"No longer having to endure the pain of reality, only in this way can human beings face the destined ending with the highest attitude and live a life full of dignity. This is "living happily."
He looked at Liuying and asked, "Ms. Liuying, you who suffer from entropy loss must understand what this means, right?"
Sanyueqi scratched his head and said, "It sounds like it's impeccable."
Liuying asked: "What is the price of all this?"
Sunday said: "The price is insignificant, just an eternal martyrdom for myself. If this paradise is to be maintained for all, one person must fall into lonely wakefulness until the end of the universe."
Liuying: "Awake, that means the paradise is still a dream. Entering the paradise means giving up reality, right?"
Sunday: "This is not giving up, but transcending. Flesh and blood are weak. If matter is the root of spiritual suffering, then we should overcome it."
Liuying: "But in such happiness, people have never overcome suffering, and have forever lost the opportunity to overcome suffering. In other words, this is escape."
Sunday: "You may think so, but there is no shame in escaping. On the contrary, there is a seed of escape in everyone's heart."
"Don't you think so, Miss Liuying? Why is life sleeping? Because people are afraid of waking up from their dreams."
“But this does not conflict with the great cause. Only by acknowledging this can we understand the weakness of human nature, and then tolerate and protect it.”
Liuying: "I... recognize that you are a natural leader. You are full of pessimism towards human beings, but you still have a negative heart and show equal compassion to all living beings."
"But I am different from you. I live for myself. In my opinion, it is natural and natural for people to make choices for themselves. It is also their birthright."
“Perhaps escaping is the nature of the weak, but who is a weak person should not be defined by others.”
"Do I have to be classified as a weakling in your eyes?"
Sunday fell into a brief silence.
Liuying shook her head: "I don't think so."
At this time, Su Qiankun said: "Since Miss Liuying has expressed her point of view, the Starry Sky Train will naturally give us our answer."
Looking at the little gray hair: "Leave it to you, just like Mr. Mikhail instructed, tell him our choice!"
