I realized that this was an important day: the first day of my death. Yes, he has been dead for a day, and there is no clean body and shroud. After returning to the rental house to clean up, he removed the gravel and wooden thorns from the cracked wound and picked up a pajamas customized by himself and his ex-wife. Maybe this is his best dress.
In order to avoid repetition with the original text, the author briefly summarizes the following contents.
? When Yang Fei arrived at the funeral home, he found that there were still many people waiting in line in the waiting area of the funeral home, waiting to be divided into ordinary level and VIP level. Because there was no urn and cemetery, he gave up cremation and lived on the streets. In this street, he recalled the first day of his life: his house was demolished, his ex-wife Li Qing was involved in a high-ranking official incident and cut her wrist, and the police suppressed the demonstrators who resisted the forced demolition. Finally, he showed a blind deceased the way to the funeral home.
The story of "the first day" came to an abrupt end here. Are you lost on the way to the funeral home? Or is Yang Fei lost?
Seeing this, I feel a little shocked and normal. First of all, to my surprise, Yang Fei didn't feel a little flustered after realizing that he was dead. Secondly, the author wrote some similar things that happened in real life into this novel as material, so that when I saw these contents, I was just surprised: Ah, isn't this what happened before? But the author doesn't want to insinuate anything through such a thing here, although it makes people think.
People often say that the story of a novel is absurd, but isn't it reality that makes people feel even more absurd? All art comes from reality and is higher than reality. Isn't the art that Yu Hua wants to express based on reality? Compared with the strangeness in the novel, perhaps the absurdity and helplessness in real life are the most surprising and sad. Yu Hua applies some life phenomena, such as demolition, mistress, corruption and so on. , to his novel creation, make people free from reality and novels, really make people feel a kind of literary and artistic charm.
? On the first day, what impressed me the most was that the dead mayor was waiting for cremation in the super VIP room. The news reported that he died of overwork, but it is said that he and his mistress had a heart attack when they were checking in at the hotel ... More than 1,000 people, big and small, bid farewell to the mayor one after another. In this farewell ceremony, all the stoves in the funeral home were turned off. ...
? Everything is so strange and familiar. Please look forward to your second day in Yang Fei.
