Stepping into heaven is hell.

Speaking of Shenmu, I think "the hell you stepped on is just the reflection of heaven", and I think it is more appropriate to describe this book with "the hell you stepped on is actually hell".

After reading Liu Qingbang's Shenmu, I couldn't calm down for a long time, and a series of questions came into my mind: "Why?" "Why does it have to be like this?" "What would happen if it wasn't like this?" ……

In the novel, two murderers, Tang Chaoyang and Song, were told that in order to survive, they found "Idea" and took it to the mine to kill it, then disguised as the illusion that "Idea" fell to the floor and died, and sought compensation from the mine owner through the false identity related to "Idea" fabricated at the beginning.

However, when they set foot on the road to hell, they thought they were in heaven. When they killed Yuan Qingping, an unsuspecting "idea", and went home for the Spring Festival, Song looked at the children and his wife, who had worked hard all day, suddenly gave up and wanted to do it for the last time. Unfortunately, it backfired. Knowing that the new "idea" Yuan was Yuan Qingping's underage son, Song Ben wanted to give up, but Tang Chaoyang was determined to kill him. Later, instead of getting out safely, they stayed with Shenmu for a long time and never saw the light of day again under the mine.

Shenmu, the Shenmu who once saved Chaoyang in Song and Tang Dynasties, made them think that "stepping on heaven" was not a reflection of "hell". Is it ridiculous or pathetic?

On the other hand, his adaptation of the film Blind Well has a quietly changed ending. In the novel, Yuan explained the truth to the mine owner and didn't get much compensation, but in the movie, he didn't say a word, took the money and set foot on the road home. The ending of Yuan in the movie is a "gift" given to him by Song, which is a guilt for the father and son. His heart is on the way to heaven.

Blind well, the tunnel leading to the mine, there have been too many similar cruel incidents underground. He seems to be screaming at the top of his lungs to accuse the world of cruelty, injustice and cold-blooded. It is more like mourning to awaken people's conscience and sympathy. He also hopes that people in today's society will give more care and sympathy to those who are struggling at the bottom.

Books like Shenmu are sad. It accuses the underground suffering, the struggle of human nature and the misfortune of society, but in the end, Yuan's survival has brought a glimmer of light to the whole book, enabling Song's conscience to be discovered and escape from "hell".

I think Shenmu wants to persuade the society to form a positive energy with his cold and sympathetic style to resist the wild publicity and unknown madness.

In a trance, I saw Song and Tang Chaoyang running towards the reflection of hell-heaven. ...
