Although he always lives in a "blind area" and darkness, the author uses delicate brushstrokes, especially with the help of the inner world of the characters in the novel, to make readers understand that the physical defects of blind people will have an impact on their lives, but their lives are not disabled than normal people, and even clearer than "some" people with normal eyes. For example, only a few people who are not blind in the novel are actually peeping with their eyes, making profits and even taking advantage of the blind: Sister Jin, the chef who cooks, is used to ordering a spoonful for herself in her bowl, but she was caught by Gao Wei in the incident of "eating mutton", which led to the decline of the "Sha Zongqi" massage center. The courage of Gao Wei, the protagonist of the incident, to openly turn his face, comes from discovering the boss Sha Fuming's secret love for Du Hong with his eyes. After deliberately approaching Du Hong, he adopted the attitude of the boss.
Through that small massage room, the author alludes to our society's cheap sympathy for the blind, unintentional teasing and intentional use, which invisibly creates a sad gap between normal people and the blind.
It is precisely because this gap always exists silently that the sensitivity, depression and silence of the blind are more like invisibly heightening and strengthening this "gap wall":
Zhang Yiguang is lucky, because he is the only survivor of the mine disaster after all, and he is unfortunate. He is an "intruder" in blind world, destined to be lonely. He often comes into conflict with people around him. After the conflict, he became increasingly lonely. He can only choose to pour his heart into the "love princesses" in the shampoo room.
Most of their childhood was unfortunate. Zhang Zongqi's stinking mother tried to poison him. He had to live a sensitive and alert life since he was a child, and even dared not kiss his girlfriend. So is Kong Xiao. As soon as her drinking father comes back, he will try his best to scratch her eyes and let her "open" and "open". Kong Xiao understands this abnormal fatherly love, and her fragile childlike innocence beats and grows prematurely in excessive sadness.
Although physically disabled, blind people are not allowed to be disabled in their dignity, and often have to show more self-esteem. The author Bi Feiyu maintains the dignity of all blind people with his careful brushwork. For example, Du Hong, when she ruined Bach's third composition, the host made up a "beautiful lie" in the warm applause of the audience, saying that poor Du Hong stood here today solely to "repay the whole society".
Du Hong summed up all the malice of this moment with a word "base", which was forced to give "pity" after ignoring the self-esteem of the blind. Blind people don't need it, but they hate it!
"If you don't break out in silence, you will die in silence." To our delight, many people in the novel finally achieved self-salvation through various forms of "breakthrough".
Wang Dafu began to release money on his way home. After shouting "You're welcome" to the driver, he got a polite and even humble courtesy-"Boss, how can I get there?" . Later, Wang Dafu finally got rid of the heavy ethical bondage of his parents and brother. He hid the money and picked up a kitchen knife. In front of the debt collectors headed by "good voice", he went from calm to growling, "How many feet should I pinch for 25 thousand?" Pinch 3333! I won't give you money, but I won't break the contract. I will give you my blood! " "Card" a knife, "card" a knife, Wang Dafu with his own "unreasonable" blood let this group of normal people back out. I have to say, he is the first person to complete self-salvation and liberation.
If Wang Dafu's redemption is passively stimulated by the strong external pressure, then Pony's redemption is definitely driven by his own heart.
Pony accidentally fell in love with "sister-in-law". A handsome pony with an extremely sensitive heart fell in love with someone who could not love him. I'm worried that he will fall into the endless dark abyss. Just as he can click the time accurately, he also clicks his own spirit.
Fortunately, Ma Xiao went to the shampoo room and met Xiaoman. Pony and Xiaoman make love desperately. "He absolutely didn't shoot a little selfish and poor semen. He photographed all his anxieties and troubles. " Pony is cautious before, and careful after. Pony's sincere eyes made Xiaoman "at a loss". She was degraded, and the "bitch" who should have been "heartless" was moved.
To create a man's orgasm, Xiaoman finally reached his climax, and the tears that the pony dripped on the areola melted in his heart.
I can't help thinking of Haruki Murakami's Norwegian Forest. The depressing and alienated atmosphere of the whole book is finally completely vented in the four sexual encounters between Junichi Watanabe and Reiko Kobayakawa at the end. These two people, nearly 20 years apart, each completed their own redemption. One bid farewell to the nursing home and set foot on a new life in Asahikawa. The other came out of the shadow of Muyue and Naoko's death and decided to bravely pursue Greenko.
The pony who returned to the massage center faced the small hole and completely shattered his inner shackles with a "I'm sorry" and a loud slap. The pony left without saying a word, and everything was not packed. He cut off contact with everyone. He must have run away with Xiaoman.
The most silent person in the past has the most decisive spirit. He is silent in his own "silence", but he knows better than anyone. Pony and Xiaoman, two invisible "bottom" figures in society, should be in complete control of their own destiny.
Pony's departure caused a chain reaction. Facing the Sha Zongqi Massage Center, where the lights are dim, the far-sighted blind people began to "throw birds into the forest". Ji Tingting arranged a marriage at home after Pony, and left politely and acceptably. Du Hong, who was injured, was still arrogant, but Du Like Hong, who had rejected the love between Chin and her boss. She didn't want to accept everyone's love, so she left a note.
These people made a choice and released themselves. There is another person in the novel, which I think is the most brilliant human nature. In addition to pursuing her love at all costs, she is also willing to help others to love boldly. Yes, this man is Jin Yan. She saved Xu Tailai and untied the shackles that tied the small hole.
Many people may not notice a detail behind the novel. Kong Xiao wanted to call his family, only to find that his mobile phone card was missing. She quickly confirmed that it was Jin Yan. Kong Xiao was furious and wanted to question Jin Yan face to face. Hardly had she reached the door when she stopped. "She seems to have got a mysterious hint." It suddenly dawned on her that coming to Nanjing without telling her family would be exposed sooner or later. Instead of procrastinating with lies, she might as well make good use of it. Kong Xiao must have thought about this problem, but she just didn't have the courage to change this state, and Jin Yan, who is discerning, helped her make a choice.
The novel draws to a close, with climaxes. The profound contrast between the blind and the bright, the constant hint of ugliness and beauty, the turning point of the characters' fate again and again, and the uncertain future of Kong, Xu Tailai and Xiao Man are all moving towards happiness, and the departure of Ji Tingting and Du Hong is also a new beginning. Finally, the rest of the "family" in the massage center came to the roadside stall to eat snacks. Readers here will probably think that this is a relatively happy ending. Unexpectedly, the author's stomach finally failed at once and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. The boss who has been pursuing social status has fallen into health, but I believe that boss Sha will also silently think about the dribs and drabs that have happened over the years in his hospital bed. Is money important or health important? Is identity or happiness important? He will make a choice calmly. After all, isn't the essence of life peace?
