musicians of old

Chapter 126

"Caroun, I probably can understand the beginning." Joan hooked her hair with her fingers, thinking, "It means that people live in the world, and after going through all kinds of things, they will die eventually, right, but what does it mean after that?" ?”

"It may be understood in conjunction with the index title." Fanning tapped his fingers on the table, "This text may emphasize the death view of certain groups: death in the physical sense is only the first beginning, and after the person passes away, other People will witness and accept the fact of their death one after another, this is the second death, huh..." Fanning paused in his speech, thinking deeply while speaking.

Joan wondered: "If a person dies, he will die, and other people may not necessarily need to confirm it. Is this another meaning? I don't think it's any different from the former."

"I thought about it, maybe there is really a difference." Fanning made his explanation.

"Imagine such a scene, a person is lying in a hospital ward on his deathbed, he is about to die, maybe five minutes, maybe ten minutes, or half an hour, in short, it's about to happen...Family and friends To visit him, some came all the way, some got away from their busy schedule, they entered the ward one by one..."

"You are one of them. You sit by his bed, hold his hand, look at his face, say goodbye to him for the last time, and then walk across the door with grief, loss, or complicated feelings. In fact, when you turn your head, he is actually dead in your heart... Although, he may still be dying, and there are still ten minutes to live, but that is meaningless to you, isn't it?"

Sheeran agrees: "There does seem to be a slight difference."

Fanning said: "So the second layer should refer to death in the minds of others, or decoupling in the social sense, and my understanding of the next last paragraph is that when a person dies, there is always someone who remembers him, such as the narrator. , such as his relatives, friends and lovers, and when the last person in the world who remembers the dead himself dies, it is the third level."

Sheeran was stunned listening to it: "So is this a process that everyone will go through? It sounds like this, and I feel a little sad and hopeless, and I also have some vain fear of death."

"No, according to this definition, I don't think so." Fanning shook his head. "For example, do you think Master Gilles will experience the third death?"

The two little girls were stunned.

Yes, just like Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, Brahms and other masters on the Blue Star in Fanning's previous life...

Even myself, who has inexplicably traveled to another world, will miss them for the rest of my life.

"The logic of this kind of writing is often progressive, with the focus on the back, so I think its central idea is to emphasize the importance of being 'remembered'."

After Fanning finished saying this, he suddenly realized something, and then, his eyes met Joan's, and he found that the girl opposite had the same expression as his own.

The eyes of the two people became brighter and brighter, and they said in unison: "Moving creatures!"

After the incident of Professor Lorraine, Joan told herself exactly this way that the migratory creatures seem to be unable to distinguish between the concepts of "alive" and "dead", or they cannot use these two terms to distinguish their states at all. In their world, only to be "remembered" or "forgotten".

Fanning put forward a bold guess: "So, you say, the 'phantom' created by the opera singer Banchois mentioned in this document is essentially a kind of idea or memory relying on him And the living creatures that exist?"

Sheeran exclaimed suddenly and covered her gaping mouth.

"What's going on?" Fanning asked in surprise.

"Caroun, I suddenly thought of that incident! The 'dream boy' incident that confuses us all!"

"The 'Dream Boy' incident. You mean, memory!?" Fan Ning suddenly woke up like a dream.

"Let me take a look. We do not know the source or purpose of this incident, but we have speculated about its possible realization principle before - that is, we first fabricated the images of characters that did not exist, and imposed psychological pressure on the first few people. Suggestion, let them dream and dream, they can easily share their experiences spontaneously, which leads to psychological hints given to more people, more people dream and dream, and after a certain scale is formed, the media will "explode the news" again in order to attract attention. It is further widely known and disseminated by people who are overly curious, and finally, the original imaginary things have really become objectively existing memories!"

"From this point of view, it is exactly the same as the formation process of the 'Phantom Man'!"

Sheeran said: "There is still a difference. According to the literature, the 'phantom man' created by Banshuwa is almost materialized, with completely independent consciousness and can exert influence on the material world, while the 'dream man' is from the beginning to the end. They are all just illusory things in a dream, and the impact on people is only on the spiritual level."

"Is it possible that it is because of: inspiration." Fan Ning speculated, "The opera singer Benchois was a person who knew in ancient times, and he was even a 'savvy person', but now the vast majority of people affected by the 'Dream Man' incident Most of them are ordinary people, and the strength of inspiration between the two sides is naturally very different."

At this moment, Joan suddenly reminded: "Caroun, Sheeran, have you found a more important difference?"

"What else?"

She said to the two people who looked at her: "There is one point that has been reflected in your words, but you may have overlooked it: 'Phantom Man' is just Ban Shuwa's personal memory, while 'Dream Man' is a collective memory !"

"The inspiration of the ancient wise man Banshuwa must be extremely powerful, and even his physical strength may be very strong. Of course, this is not comparable to the instigator behind it today, otherwise he would not have to be so sneaky."

"...If the purpose of the instigator was to create a migratory creature of the level of a 'Phantom', he must—"

"Try to optimize the method?" Fan Ning took over the question, "or in other words, use some means of compensation to close the gap with Banchou? Including the physical gap and the spiritual gap?"

Fanning suddenly remembered another "Original Secret" mentioned in the ancient Chaniz language that the Bologna School had been looking for.

The "Secret Ritual" that killed Mr. Anton recorded above was evaluated as an optimization idea to improve the quality of sensory fuel.

Optimize ideas!

"This is one of them." Joan said, "He may also hope that he can avoid the failure of Ben Shuwa and control this 'phantom' to achieve some purpose. Otherwise, creating it can not only harm himself, What's the point?"

Fanning thought over and over again, looking at the notebook spread out in front of him over and over again,

There are all the incidents listed previously that are still in doubt.

"The experience officer of the Transcendence Club commissioned the "Grey Eagle" to take away Sheeran for the first time, and the latter was killed by himself after being promoted to a wise person, and tried to do it himself for the second time."

"The experience officers of the Transcendence Club used the time when the workers were injured by radioactive substances and their lives passed away abnormally, and suspected of collecting their vitality."

"The manager of the Pleasure Listening Club uses the secret device to capture the light of innocent people's first knowledge, and refines the brilliance essence with extremely high purity of inspiration."

The following one was just written:

"Unknown persons concocted the "Dream Boy Incident" and fabricated a large-scale group memory that did not exist in the first place."

Next to it was another page of paper recording fragments of musical inspiration, on which was written the enlightenment I had received from Mr. Anton:

"Music performance or a ritual."

It was this revelation that allowed me to push the boat smoothly when facing the compulsory arrangement of the Special Patrol Office, and later led all the staff to formulate a plan that was completely different from the previous one.

Under the interweaving of various information, lightning flashed across Fan Ning's mind, making the dark and confusing things briefly illuminated, as if he could see some details clearly, but he didn't seem to.

His eyes flickered for a long time, and finally took a deep breath:

"Anyway, come tomorrow as scheduled and follow our plan."
