Literary life with cute baby

Chapter 225 Incubation of parasites (adding more rewards to the red fairy)
Yang Shuangshuang saw such a scene in a painting called "The Child Living in Hermit Among Human Beings" - in an old house, a family was sitting in the room, and his father was reading "Biography and Xilu" aloud. Everyone looked pious, except for one face, which was full of ridicule from the nether world.

This scoffing boy should be the eldest son of the family, but his essence is the same kind of filth.

Shi Guangnan seemed to feel the creepiness that Yang Shuangshuang felt from the two paintings, but he was still not sure, so he asked Tang Shuang on the phone: "Is there any connection between these two paintings?"

Tang Shuang smiled, as if she wanted to relieve Shi Guangnan's tension with a brisk laugh.

Although he didn't see her in person, he could guess from the tone of the phone that she was probably nervous.

"You should have guessed it, that's right, it's what you thought in your heart."

Tang Shuang seemed to have heard Shi Guangnan's sigh, and then she heard her say: ""Lesson" tells the story of human children being raised by those demons, and finally degenerates into demons, while "The Child Living in Humanity" tells It's the story of a demon's child fostered in a human family, right?"

Tang Shuang: "Yes, in nature, such behavior is not strange, such as cuckoo birds, they have a behavior called hatching parasitism, which is to play tricks and let another creature raise their children..."

Shi Guangnan interrupted him and said, "So the devil puts his cubs in the human cradle and swaps them with human babies. What will the demon cubs in humans become when they grow up?"

Tang Shuang: "Isn't it clearly written in the story? The devil cub in "The Child Living in Humanity" has the same face as Guo Zifeng."

Shi Guangnan thought for a while, and said with horror: "They are learning from humans! That's why they fostered the cubs into human families."

Tang Shuang: "At the same time, they are assimilating human babies."

Yang Shuangshuang in the story saw too many disgusting paintings, each of which made her sleepless, and stopped several times in the process of writing letters.

When Shi Guangnan read this story, he also stopped several times, on the one hand to take a breath, and on the other hand to think about the clues in the story.

The reason why she feels that there is a huge horror world hidden behind this story is because there are many details that make people think.

For example, it mentions an overall cross-sectional view of a mountain range. The picture is both deep and wide. Those inhuman objects are piled up in the mountain like ants, drilling in and out of the underground honeycomb-shaped tunnels.From here it can be seen that this demon has formed a social system.

For example, at the end of the story, there was a rustling sound from the dry well in the basement. Guo Zifeng took out his pistol, trembling nervously, and cursed the rats that crawled out of the dry well.

With a few gunshots, Yang Shuangshuang turned around and ran away in fright. Fortunately, she ran fast, otherwise she would disappear forever in the basement together with Guo Zifeng, a devil cub!

These swarms of rats are obviously a higher level of terrorist creatures, that is to say, there is another system above the social system of demons, or more, and a certain ecological balance is formed between them, otherwise there is no void for human existence.

Shi Guangnan: "What kind of existence are those rats? Are they higher than demons?"

Tang Shuang: "...When I have a chance, I will write you a story about this group of rats."

Shi Guangnan said excitedly: "Do you have a very big idea? Is it a horror story?"

Tang Shuang: "emmm~ It is indeed a fantasy. You should have seen it. "Guo Zifeng's Model" is a one-sided display of this big idea."

Shi Guangnan: "Can you tell me a little bit? It's okay to tell me a little bit, it doesn't matter if you're immature..."

"Guo Zifeng's Model" is like one of the windows of a building, through which one can see some wonders in the building.

Actually, this story is based on H.P. Lovecraft's classic horror short story "Pickman's Model".

HP Lovecraft is a master of horror, fantasy and science fiction literature in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and his most famous work is "Cthulhu Mythos".The achievement of this work lies not only in its own excellence, but also in its groundbreaking.

No one can write a world alone, so HP Lovecraft set the basic rules for the world by writing some basic and programmatic stories, and then tolerated and absorbed other people's creations.

So countless fantasy literature lovers tell their own fantasy stories under this framework, thus accumulating over time and continuously enriching and perfecting the Cthulhu mythology system.

This is HP Lovecraft's greatest achievement.

Just like the martial arts world in China, "Three Heroes and Five Righteousnesses" determined the basic concepts of the martial arts world, and subsequent works were perfected and created on these basic concepts.

It is based on the contribution of HP Lovecraft that later generations established the World Fantasy Award, which is the highest award for fantasy literature in the world, and its trophy is a bust of HP Lovecraft.

Tang Shuang likes some stories in "Cthulhu Mythos", but there are also many stories that she can't appreciate.

"Pickman's Model" was one of his favorites.

The discussions and imitations triggered by this short story are too numerous to enumerate. Among them, the more famous one should be a British horror movie in later generations - "Darkness Invasion". story……

The prototype of this group of monsters comes from "Pickman's Model". They live in the dark and complex underground world, with pale skin, like the terrifying appearance of humans degraded to a certain ancient time point, and like a group of dogs with tails. It moves swiftly and powerfully, eats raw meat and drinks raw water, and occasionally comes to the ground to hunt creatures.They have a social system with clear status, clear division of labor, and even developed a crude language system.

"Pickman's Model" is about the horror beauty hidden in our daily life, but what Tang Shuang likes the most is not this article, but the more brilliant "Color of the Stars", which tells about the dark universe. Cold and scary, in addition to "The Mouse in the Wall", "The Picture in the House" and so on.

Among them, "The Rats in the Wall" is about the group of rats that devoured Guo Zifeng. This group of rats from hell opened up the road to the nether world.

There are countless such humanoid creatures, as well as hellrats, in the Cthulhu mythology. They live on the same earth, the same starry sky, and the same universe as human beings, forming a huge and strange fantasy world together. , and the basis for the existence of this world is that human beings are just an insignificant part of an incomprehensible universe.

... It was almost noon when Huang Xiangning came home with candy, and the little man ran to Tang Shuang's room excitedly carrying big bags and small bags, calling him to appreciate her harvest!
In addition to the autumn clothes bought for Xiao Zhuzhu, Huang Xiangning also bought a long black autumn coat for Tang Shuang, as well as gifts for his grandparents and uncle's family.

According to Tangtanger, except for not asking her to pay for this shopping operation, she did everything else.

She carefully selected every piece of clothing and put a lot of thought into it, including Tang Shuang's clothing, which she even tried on for him.

This is awesome!Tang Shuang's dress could be used as a quilt for Tangtanger.

"How can you thank me, Xiaoshuang?"

I knew that this girl had a scheming heart.

"How do you want me to thank you?"

Candy said with a smile, "Let's go to the handjob to pick up my sister."

Tang Shuang: "Are you stupid? They won't arrive until the afternoon. It's still very early now, and there's no need to go to the airport. They'll come directly to home."

Tangtanger: "But I want to see my sister soon, let's go to Handler's house."

Tang Shuang: "Really want to see my sister soon?"

Candy: "I really want to."

Tang Shuang: "Okay, then I'll take you to Shengjing by handjob, and you can pick her up at my sister's house, okay?"

Candy was dumbfounded: "Hmph! I hate it!"

Tang Zhen will go home today, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. She was invited by Guangdong TV Station to participate in the recording of the Guangdong Mid-Autumn Festival Gala. At the same time, Li Yuzun and Luo Yuqing were also invited.

Because it was in Guangdong Province, the old Tang family decided to invite Li Yuzhen and Luo Yuqing to have dinner at home as a kindness of the landlord.
