Original: It tropical countries, the sun is very powerful. People are brown into brown, like peach blossom heartwood; in the hottest country, people become black. But now a scholar who lives in the cold belt is about to come to these hot countries. He thought he could roam in these countries, like in his own country, but he changed his opinion after a long time. It, like everyone with rational people, he has to stay at home and close the shutter window and door all day. This seems to seem to be sleeping in the whole house or none of the family. The narrow streets with many high houses he lived, the construction made the sun just on it from morning to night. This really makes people ca n’t eat it!
The scholar from the cold belt is a smart young man. He felt as if he was sitting in a white hot stove. This made him exhausted. He became very thin, and even his shadow was shrinking, and he didn't know much than when he was at home. The sun also baked it. Only after the sun fell, he and the shadow recovered in the evening. The situation looks really interesting. As soon as the candle was taken into the room, the shadow stretched on the wall. It stretched itself high and even stretched it to the ceiling.

Andersen's "Shadow" In the tropical country, the sun is very powerful. People are brown into brown, like peach blossom heartwood; in the hottest country, people become black. But now a scholar who lives in the cold belt is about to come to these hot countries. He thought he could roam in these countries, like in his own country, but he changed his opinion after a long time. Like everyone with rational, he has to stay at home and close the louver window and door all day. This seems to seem to be sleeping in the whole house or no one at home. The narrow streets with many high houses he lived, the construction made the sun just on it from morning to night. This really makes people ca n’t eat it!
The scholar from the cold belt is a smart young man. He felt as if he was sitting in a white hot stove. This made him exhausted. He became very thin, and even his shadow was shrinking, and he didn't know much than when he was at home. The sun also baked it. Only after the sun fell, he and the shadow recovered in the evening. This situation looks really interesting. As soon as the candle was taken into the room, the shadow stretched on the wall. It stretched itself high and even stretched it to the ceiling. In order to re -gain strength, it has to extend.
The scholar went to the balcony and stretched out his body. When the stars appeared in the beautiful clear sky, he felt that he was angry again. On all the balconies on these streets -in tropical countries, there is a balcony on each window -now someone comes out, because people have to breathe fresh air, even if they become peach blossoms The color cannot be controlled. At this time, all up and down seemed to be angry. Shoes, tailors, moved to the street at home. The table and chair were also moved out; the candle was also lit — yes, more than a thousand candles. This person chatted, that person sang; people walked, carriage Mercedes -Benz, donkey walking -Ding Dang -Ding Dang -Ding Dang! Because they are wearing bells. The deceased entered the soil in the sound of the Holy Poetry; the wild child was fell fireworks; the bell of the church was rang. Indeed, the street is full of active air.
only in a house opposite that foreign scholars' residence, everything is silent. But there is a person in it because there are several flowers on the balcony. These flowers grow very beautiful in the sun. If no one is watering, they will never grow so well; so anyone must water them there, so someone must live there. When it was dark, the door there was also opened, but it was dark inside, and the minimum room was like this. A little bit of music came out. The foreign scholar thinks this music is wonderful, but this may be just his fantasy, because he finds that everything in these tropical countries is beautiful -if there is no sun. The foreigner's landlord said that he didn't know who rented the opposite house -there was never anyone who had appeared there; as for the music, he felt monotonous.
He said, "It seems that someone is sitting there, always practicing a tone that he has not played well -an unchanged tone. He seems to be saying: 'I will learn it after all. 'But no matter how long he played, he always learned. "
The foreigner woke up one night. He slept at the door of the open balcony. The wind opened the curtain in front of it, so he fantasized that he saw a strange light shot from the balcony opposite. All the flowers are lit, like a bright flame. There is a beautiful and slim girl in the middle of these flowers. She also seemed to shot a light. This does stab his eyes. But this was because he opened his eyes too much when he woke up from his sleep. As soon as he turned over, he jumped to the ground. He walked to the curtain gently, but the girl disappeared, the light was gone, and the flowers no longer shined, but just stood there and looked good as usual. The door was still half -covered, and there was a sound of music from inside -so soft, so wonderful that people were immersed in sweet fantasy as soon as they heard it. This is like a illusion. But who lives there? Where is the real entrance? Because the bottom layer is full of shops, people cannot always enter and exit from these shops.
one night, the foreigner sat on his balcony. Light in the room behind him, so his shadow was naturally shot on the wall of the opposite house. It is indeed sitting in the middle of the balcony. When the foreigner moved, his shadow moved.
"I believe that the only thing we can see here is my shadow." The scholar said. "You see, how cute it is sitting in the middle of the flowers. The door is half -opened, but this shadow should be smarter, walk into it, and then come back and tell what it see. I. " " yes, you should be useful! "He joked. "Please go in. Well, do you go in?" So he nodded at the shadow; the shadow nodded at him. "Then please go in, but don't come back if you go."
The foreigner stood up, and the shadow on the opposite balcony also stood up. The foreigner turned around; the shadow also turned around at the same time. If someone pays attention to it, you can clearly see that when the foreigner walks into his room and puts down the long curtain, the shadow also walks into the half -covered door on the opposite balcony.
The next morning, the scholar went out to drink coffee and went to see the newspaper.
"What is the matter?" When he walked into the sun, he suddenly asked. "My shadow is gone! It really walked away last night and didn't come back again. This is really a strange thing!"
His shadow was gone, but because he knew a story about a person without a shadow. Everyone who lives in the cold belt kingdom knows this story. If the scholar returns home and tells his story, everyone will say that it was compiled by him imitating that story. He was unwilling to talk about him like this. So he intends to not mention this at all -this is a reasonable idea.
The evening he walked to his balcony again. He had carefully put the candlelight behind him because he knew that the shadow always needed its owner as a cover, but he could not put it to put it down It leads. He turned himself smaller and expanded himself, but the shadow did not produce, so there was no shadow out. He said, "Come out!" But this is not useful.
This is really annoying. But in tropical countries, everything grows very fast. After a week, one thing made him very happy: he found that when he walked in the sun, a new shadow was born from his leg. There must be a shadow root on him. Three weeks later, he already had a considerable shadow. When he left back to his northern country, the shadow was much longer on the road. Later, it looked taller and big, that is, it didn't matter to remove it.
The scholar came home. He wrote many books to study what the world is true, what is good and what is beauty. So the day passed day by day, and many years have passed, and many years have passed.
one night, he was sitting in the room, and someone knocked a few times on the door. "Come in!" He said; but no one came in. So he opened the door; he saw a thin person standing in front of him. This surprised him. But this person's clothes are very dressed; he must be a status.
"Excuse me, the name of the surname?" The professor asked.
"Cough!" The gentleman's guest said, "I thought long ago, you will not know me! I have become a specific person now, with real flesh and blood, and with real flesh and flesh and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and flesh and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and flesh and flesh and flesh and flesh and flesh and blood and flesh Dress. You never thought that I would see me like this. Don't you know your old shadow? You never thought I would come again. Since I was with you last time, all my situation has made a lot of progress. Successfully. No matter in any aspect, I can be considered very rich now; if I want to get rid of slavery and free redemption, I can do it! "
So he hung on the table on the table A string of amulets ① shake, and then put your hand on a very thick gold necklace wearing it on the neck. At this time, how bright the diamond ring emits on his fingers! And everything is true!
"No, this is a bit confused!" Scholar said. "What is this?"
"Never ordinary things!" The shadow said. "But you are not an ordinary person yourself. You know very clearly. From my childhood, I will not leave you. Only when you think I have matured and live in this world alone, I look for myself Out of the way. Finding the current situation is no better, but I have a mood of nostalgia, and I want to see you once before you die. You will always die! At the same time, I want to see these places again Because a person always loves his motherland. I know you have another shadow now; do you want me to do it to you -or what price does it pay for it? You only have to tell me. "
"Hi, it turned out to be you!" Scholar said. "This is so strange! I never thought that a person's old shadow would come back like a person!"
"Please tell me what I should pay," the shadow, " Because I hate the debts that owe others. "
" How can you say this? "Scholar said. "What debts are you talking about now? Like anyone, you are free! You have such a good luck, I feel very happy. Please sit down, old friends, please tell me some of your past living conditions, and you in that is where you are in that. Tropical countries, what we see in the house opposite us. "
" yes, I can tell you, "the shadow said. So he sat down. "But please promise me: where you meet me wherever you meet, please don't tell anyone in this city, saying that I used to be your shadow! I am now interested in engaging, because I am more than enough for my ability to support a family."
"Please rest assured," the scholar said, "I will never tell anyone about your original face. Please hold my hand. I promise you. R n "A shadow -talk is a word!" The shadow said, because he had to say that.
The is really amazing, how complete he is now. He was all black dress: he was wearing the best black clothes, patent leather shoes, and a hat that could stack only one top and side hat. In addition, he also has the amulets, gold necklaces and diamond rings we already know. The shadow is really beautiful. It was this dress that made him look like a person.
"Let me tell you now," the shadow said. So he stepped on the arm of his new shadow in the new shadow of his patent leather shoes -he was lying under his feet like a little lion dog. This approach may be because of pride, or because he wants to stick this new shadow on his feet. But this shadow is very quiet because it wants to listen to their speech quietly. It also wants to know how a shadow can get freedom and become his own master.
"Do you know who is in the room opposite?" The shadow asked. "That's the cutest person in all creatures; that's poetry! I lived there for three weeks. This makes people seem to live there for a thousand years and read all the poems and articles in the world. I dare to say this, and this is the truth. I saw everything, I knew everything! " " Poetic God! "Scholar yelled. "Yes, yes! She often lives in a large city as a hermit. Poetry God! Yes, I saw her for a while, but my eyelids were pressed heavy at that time; she stood on the balcony On, send out -Tao is very similar to the light of the northern light. Please tell me! Please tell me! You were standing on the balcony. You walked into that door, so- "
"So I walked into the front room," the shadow said. "At that time, you were sitting opposite, always looking towards this front room. There was no light there, there was only a vague light. The door and room, the door was opened one by one; the room was lit in the room. If it weren't for me to go in directly, I would be killed by this strong light. But I am It's very calm, I wait quietly -this is exactly what a person should take. "
" What did you see? "The scholar asked.
"I saw everything, I will tell you all. But -this is not my arrogance -as a free person, plus all my knowledge, not to mention my noble position And superior conditions -I hope you call me as 'you'. "
" Please forgive! "Scholar said," This is an old habit, it is not easy to remove. —— You are not easy to remove. It's absolutely correct, I must remember. But now please tell me what you see. "
" Everything! "The shadow said," Because I saw everything, at the same time, I know everything. "
" What is everything in that inner room? "The scholar asked. "Is it like in a fresh air forest? Is it like in a temple? Are those rooms standing like a star fighting on the mountains?"
"Everything there is there," the shadow said, "I didn't go into it completely, just standing in the dark front room, but my status there was very good. I saw everything, I know everything. I used to I have been in the palace of the former Fangshi. "
" But what do you see? Is there an ancient deity in those halls? Competition? Are there beautiful children playing there and talk about the dreams they have made there? "
" I tell you, I have been there, so you know that I see it there. Everything I can see! If you have been there, you will not be another person; but I have become a person, and I also learn to understand my inner nature, my essence and me and me and me and me and me and me. The relationship between poetry. Yes, when I was with you before, I never thought of these things. However It is more real than you. At that time, I didn't know the nature of my innerness; I recognized it only in that front room. I became a person!
"I was completely formed. You are no longer in those warm kingdoms. As a person, I feel that it is shameful to appear in the original form: I need all kinds of modifications that leather shoes, clothes, and a specific person should have -I hide it myself; yes, I will tell you all this It's -please don't write it into any book. I ran under the skirt of the cake -selling woman and hid in it. This woman didn't know how big she hid. At first I only came out at night, and I walked under the moonlight on the street. I stretched on the wall for a long time, which made me feel itchy and weird! I ran up and down, and I looked at the living room through the highest windows; I looked at the places that I couldn't see through the roof; I saw anything that no one had seen and who should not see. Throughout, this is a despicable and dirty world! If it wasn't for everyone to think that it would be a great thing to be a person, I would never want to be a person.
"I see some of the most incredible things that happened among men, women, parents, and 'dear children. Things -The bad things their neighbors do. If I write these things in the newspaper, then there are more people! But I only write it to some related people, so which city I go to, so I go to which city, and There is a scary for a city. People are so scared of me, but they all like me very much. The professor selected me as a professor; the tailor gave me new clothes to wear, and I was not lacking. ; Women say that I look beautiful! -This, I will become such a person now. Cough, I want to say goodbye now. This is my business card; I live on the side of the sun. It rains At home, I always at home. "
The shadow farewell.
"This is really rare," the scholar said. Prevarinations have passed. The shadow came to visit again.
"How are you?" He asked.
"Oh!" Scholar said, "I am writing articles about truth, goodness, and beauty. But no one wants to listen to such things; I am a little disappointed because it makes me me Sad. "
" but I don't do this, "the shadow said. "I am growing up and fat -a person should be like this. You don't know this world, so you are about to get sick. You should go to travel. I am going to run outside this summer; do you come too? I hope there is a travel companion. Do you want to be my shadow and come with me? With you, it will be a great pleasure to me. I am willing to bear all your travel expenses. "
" This is a bit too much, "the scholar said.
"This depends on what attitude you take for this question," the shadow replied, "One trip will have great benefits to you. If you are willing to be my shadow, then you will be you will be Get all the benefits of travel, but there is no burden on travel. "
" This is a bit too too! "Scholar said.
"This is what the world is!" The shadow said, "And it will be the case in the future!"
then the shadow left.
The scholar is not completely comfortable. Sorrow and concerns followed him. He talked about the truth, kindness, and beauty to most people, just like roses, like a cow, could not attract interest. ——The finally he was sick.
"You look like a shadow," everyone said to him. When he thought of this sentence, he was half cold.
"You should go to a hot spring to recuperate!" When the shadow came to visit him. "There is no other way. Looking at the division of our old love, I can bring you. I will pay for all the travel expenses. You can describe this trip, and at the same time, you can also let me eliminate pastime on the road to eliminate pastime on the road . I want to go to a hot spring to live. My beard is abnormal, and this is a morbid state. But I must have a beard. Now please let you put a smarter and accept my proposal: We can go as a good friend as a good friend. Traveling. "
This, they went to travel. The shadow is now the master, but the owner has become a shadow. They took the car together, rode the horse together, and walked together together; they sometimes were in front of each other, sometimes in the back, depending on the position of the sun. The shadow always shows the identity of the owner very well. This scholar did not expect this, because he had a kind heart, and he was a particularly gentle and friendly person. So one day the owner said to the shadow:
"We have become a travel companion now -we don't have to doubt this; at the same time, we have grown up from a young age, should we worship as brothers? You can become more intimate. "
" You are right! "The shadow said -he is actually the master now," Your sentence is very straightforward, and the intention is good. I am now too. You have to meet with sincerity and say whatever you want. You are a learned person; I think you know how weird human nature is. Some people can't touch the gray paper -they hate it as soon as they see the gray paper and hate it when they see the gray paper. . Some people see a person with a nail on the glass window and shake all over. I hear you call me 'you', and I also feel the same. Like the relationship between you, I think I feel like I am Being on the ground. You need to know that this is a feeling, not a question of self -prize. I can't let you say "you ', but I am willing to call you" you'. Don't suffer. "
From then on, the shadow has called his former owner as" you ".
"This is a bit too hot," the latter thought, "I have to shout‘ you ’, but he calls me‘ you ’.” But he had to endure it.
. They came to a hot spring. There are many foreigners here; there is a beautiful princess among them. She got a disease, that is, her eyes were very sharp to see things -this can make people feel extremely disturbed.
. She immediately noticed that the new character is different from other people.
"Everyone said that he came here to make his beard grow. However, I can see the real reason -he can't project a shadow." So she immediately talked to the strange gentleman on the walking field. As a princess, she is not necessary to be polite, so she said to him straightforwardly:
"Your problem is not to project shadows."
The body is much better, "the shadow said," I know your fault is: you see that things are too sharp. But this problem is gone, you have cured. I have a very unusual shadow! You did not watch it without watching it! Is it this person who is old with me? Others have an ordinary shadow, but I don’t like ordinary things. Some people like to wear uniforms that are better than their own clothes materials; I want to make my shadow dress like an independent person. You can see that I still let him have a shadow. This cost is not small, but I like a little different. "
" How! "The princess thought. "Has my illness really cured? This is the best hot spring in the world. Its water now has a strange power. But I don't plan to leave here now, because this place began to make me very interested. This stranger is very teasing my love. I just hope that his beard should not grow, because if he grows up, then he will leave. " Dancing. Her body is light, but his body is lighter. She has never met such a dancing person. She told him which country she came from, and he knew the country -he had been there, but she had left. He once watched the interior of her palace from the window -he saw it up and down. He saw this and saw that. So he can answer the princess's question, and at the same time implies some things -this makes her very surprised. He must be the smartest person in the world! So she paid infinite respect for his knowledge. When she danced with him again, she couldn't help but love him. The shadow noticed this, because her eyes were always staring at him.
. She danced again with him. She almost said what she had in her heart, but she was a person who knew how to be seized: she thought of her country. Her kingdom and the people she are going to rule.
"He is a smart person," she said to herself. "This is very good; and he dances well -this is also very good. But I don't know if his knowledge is deep? This is also an important question: you must investigate it."
So she immediately asked him a question that was very difficult and could not even answer. The shadow made a ghost.
"You can't answer," the princess said.
"I knew it when I was a kid," the shadow said, "And I believe, even my shadow standing at the door can be answered."
"You you you The shadow! "The princess yelled," That's really amazing. "
" I don't say he can answer it, "the shadow said," but I believe he can answer. He has been following me and listening to me. But His Royal Highness forgives, I want to remind you that he thinks he is alone and proud of it; so if you want to make him feel good, make him answer the question correctly Then you have to treat him as a real person. "
" I can do this, "the princess said.
So she walked to the scholar standing beside the door. She talked to him about the sun and the moon, the human heart and appearance; the scholar answered both clever and correct.
"There is such a smart shadow, it must not be an ordinary person," she thinks. "If I chose him as my husband, it must be a great luck for my country and the people. —— I want to do this!"
So they -princess and shadow shadow ——In the understanding immediately. But before she returned to her kingdom, no one could know it.
"No one knows -even my shadow will not know," the shadow said. He said this sentence for his own reason.
. They returned to the country ruled by the princess at home.
"Please listen, my good friend," the shadow told scholars. "I have the luck and power I can get now, I have all. I have to do something special for you now. You will always live in my palace with me and take my royal family with me Royal car, and you can receive 100,000 yuan a year. But you have to let everyone call you a shadow, and at the same time, you will never be allowed to say that you used to be a person. Annual, when I sit on the balcony, I sit on the balcony sunlight When let everyone see me ②, you have to lie down at my feet like a shadow. I can tell you that I am about to marry the princess; the wedding is held tonight. " n n n n n n n n n n n R n "Hey, this is too hot!" Scholar said. "I can't accept it, I will never do such things. This is simply deceiving the princess and the people of the whole country. I want to tell everything -I am a person, you are a shadow, you are just dressed like a person like a person "
" No one will believe you! "The shadow said. "Please be smarter, otherwise I will call the guards!"
"I will tell the princess directly!" Scholar said.
"But I will go better than you," the shadow said; "You will enter the prison."
It Marrying the princess, so he obeyed his command.
"You are shaking," the princess said when the shadow walked into the room. "What's wrong? We are about to get married, you can't get sick tonight!"
"I meet the most appalling things in the world!" The shadow said. "Please think about it! —Ly, of course, a poor shadow's mind can't stand it -please think! My shadow is crazy: he fantasized him to become a person; he thought -please think -please think about it Think -he thought I was his shadow! "
" This is terrible! "The princess said. "I think he has been locked up?"
"Of course. I am afraid he will never recover rationality."
"He is unfortunately unfortunately. It is a good way to get out of his small life. When I think about it carefully, I feel that it is necessary to settle him silently. "
" This is certainly a bit too hot, because he has always been a very loyal servant, "the shadow said, at the same time pretending to sigh.
"You are really a noble person," the princess said, bowed deeply in front of him.
The light of the whole city that night; the ritual cannon is radiation — bombardment! The soldiers were paying tribute. This is a wedding! The princess and the shadow showed to the people on the balcony and accepted the cheers from the masses again.
The scholars did not hear the grand celebration at all, because he had been executed.
① In Europe, especially in the folk, people often bring some gadgets around them, superstitious that they can bring good luck.
② In Europe, according to the convention left by the feudal era, the king and queen, or princess and horses, when they go to the balcony every year on the National Day holiday, answering the people who cheered outside.
Original:
It tropical countries, the sun is very powerful. People are brown into brown, like peach blossom heartwood; in the hottest country, people become black. But now a scholar who lives in the cold belt is about to come to these hot countries. He thought he could roam in these countries, like in his own country, but he changed his opinion after a long time.
It, like everyone with rational people, he has to stay at home and close the shutter window and door all day. This seems to seem to be sleeping in the whole house or none of the family. The narrow streets with many high houses he lived, the construction made the sun just on it from morning to night. This really makes people ca n’t eat it!
The scholar from the cold belt is a smart young man. He felt as if he was sitting in a white hot stove. This made him exhausted. He became very thin, and even his shadow was shrinking, and he didn't know much than when he was at home. The sun also baked it. Only after the sun fell, he and the shadow recovered in the evening.
The situation looks really interesting. As soon as the candle was taken into the room, the shadow stretched on the wall. It stretched itself high and even stretched it to the ceiling. In order to re -gain strength, it has to extend.

Andersen's "Shadow"
In the tropical country, the sun is very powerful. People are brown into brown, like peach blossom heartwood; in the hottest country, people become black. But now a scholar who lives in the cold belt is about to come to these hot countries. He thought he could roam in these countries, like in his own country, but he changed his opinion after a long time. Like everyone with rational, he has to stay at home and close the louver window and door all day. This seems to seem to be sleeping in the whole house or no one at home. The narrow streets with many high houses he lived, the construction made the sun just on it from morning to night. This really makes people ca n’t eat it!
The scholar from the cold belt is a smart young man. He felt as if he was sitting in a white hot stove. This made him exhausted. He became very thin, and even his shadow was shrinking, and he didn't know much than when he was at home. The sun also baked it. Only after the sun fell, he and the shadow recovered in the evening. This situation looks really interesting. As soon as the candle was taken into the room, the shadow stretched on the wall. It stretched itself high and even stretched it to the ceiling. In order to re -gain strength, it has to extend.
The scholar went to the balcony and stretched out his body. When the stars appeared in the beautiful clear sky, he felt that he was angry again. On all the balconies on these streets -in tropical countries, there is a balcony on each window -now someone comes out, because people have to breathe fresh air, even if they become peach blossoms The color cannot be controlled. At this time, all up and down seemed to be angry. Shoes, tailors, moved to the street at home. The table and chair were also moved out; the candle was also lit — yes, more than a thousand candles. This person chatted, that person sang; people walked, carriage Mercedes -Benz, donkey walking -Ding Dang -Ding Dang -Ding Dang! Because they are wearing bells. The deceased entered the soil in the sound of the Holy Poetry; the wild child was fell fireworks; the bell of the church was rang. Indeed, the street is full of active air.
only in a house opposite that foreign scholars' residence, everything is silent. But there is a person in it because there are several flowers on the balcony. These flowers grow very beautiful in the sun. If no one is watering, they will never grow so well; so anyone must water them there, so someone must live there. When it was dark, the door there was also opened, but it was dark inside, and the minimum room was like this. A little bit of music came out. The foreign scholar thinks this music is wonderful, but this may be just his fantasy, because he finds that everything in these tropical countries is beautiful -if there is no sun. The foreigner's landlord said that he didn't know who rented the opposite house -there was never anyone who had appeared there; as for the music, he felt monotonous.
He said, "It seems that someone is sitting there, always practicing a tone that he has not played well -an unchanged tone. He seems to be saying: 'I will learn it after all. 'But no matter how long he played, he always learned. "
The foreigner woke up one night. He slept at the door of the open balcony. The wind opened the curtain in front of it, so he fantasized that he saw a strange light shot from the balcony opposite. All the flowers are lit, like a bright flame. There is a beautiful and slim girl in the middle of these flowers. She also seemed to shot a light. This does stab his eyes. But this was because he opened his eyes too much when he woke up from his sleep. As soon as he turned over, he jumped to the ground. He walked to the curtain gently, but the girl disappeared, the light was gone, and the flowers no longer shined, but just stood there and looked good as usual. The door was still half -covered, and there was a sound of music from inside -so soft, so wonderful that people were immersed in sweet fantasy as soon as they heard it. This is like a illusion. But who lives there? Where is the real entrance? Because the bottom layer is full of shops, people cannot always enter and exit from these shops.
one night, the foreigner sat on his balcony. Light in the room behind him, so his shadow was naturally shot on the wall of the opposite house. It is indeed sitting in the middle of the balcony. When the foreigner moved, his shadow moved.
"I believe that the only thing we can see here is my shadow." The scholar said. "You see, how cute it is sitting in the middle of the flowers. The door is half -opened, but this shadow should be smarter, walk into it, and then come back and tell what it see. I. "
" yes, you should be useful! "He joked. "Please go in. Well, do you go in?" So he nodded at the shadow; the shadow nodded at him. "Then please go in, but don't come back if you go."
The foreigner stood up, and the shadow on the opposite balcony also stood up. The foreigner turned around; the shadow also turned around at the same time. If someone pays attention to it, you can clearly see that when the foreigner walks into his room and puts down the long curtain, the shadow also walks into the half -covered door on the opposite balcony.
The next morning, the scholar went out to drink coffee and went to see the newspaper.
"What is the matter?" When he walked into the sun, he suddenly asked. "My shadow is gone! It really walked away last night and didn't come back again. This is really a strange thing!"
His shadow was gone, but because he knew a story about a person without a shadow. Everyone who lives in the cold belt kingdom knows this story. If the scholar returns home and tells his story, everyone will say that it was compiled by him imitating that story. He was unwilling to talk about him like this. So he intends to not mention this at all -this is a reasonable idea.
The evening he walked to his balcony again. He had carefully put the candlelight behind him because he knew that the shadow always needed its owner as a cover, but he could not put it to put it down It leads. He turned himself smaller and expanded himself, but the shadow did not produce, so there was no shadow out. He said, "Come out!" But this is not useful.
This is really annoying. But in tropical countries, everything grows very fast. After a week, one thing made him very happy: he found that when he walked in the sun, a new shadow was born from his leg. There must be a shadow root on him. Three weeks later, he already had a considerable shadow. When he left back to his northern country, the shadow was much longer on the road. Later, it looked taller and big, that is, it didn't matter to remove it.
The scholar came home. He wrote many books to study what the world is true, what is good and what is beauty. So the day passed day by day, and many years have passed, and many years have passed.
one night, he was sitting in the room, and someone knocked a few times on the door. "Come in!" He said; but no one came in. So he opened the door; he saw a thin person standing in front of him. This surprised him. But this person's clothes are very dressed; he must be a status.
"Excuse me, the name of the surname?" The professor asked.
"Cough!" The gentleman's guest said, "I thought long ago, you will not know me! I have become a specific person now, with real flesh and blood, and with real flesh and flesh and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and flesh and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and blood and flesh and flesh and flesh and flesh and flesh and blood and flesh Dress. You never thought that I would see me like this. Don't you know your old shadow? You never thought I would come again. Since I was with you last time, all my situation has made a lot of progress. Successfully. No matter in any aspect, I can be considered very rich now; if I want to get rid of slavery and free redemption, I can do it! "
So he hung on the table on the table A string of amulets ① shake, and then put your hand on a very thick gold necklace wearing it on the neck. At this time, how bright the diamond ring emits on his fingers! And everything is true!
"No, this is a bit confused!" Scholar said. "What is this?"
"Never ordinary things!" The shadow said. "But you are not an ordinary person yourself. You know very clearly. From my childhood, I will not leave you. Only when you think I have matured and live in this world alone, I look for myself Out of the way. Finding the current situation is no better, but I have a mood of nostalgia, and I want to see you once before you die. You will always die! At the same time, I want to see these places again Because a person always loves his motherland. I know you have another shadow now; do you want me to do it to you -or what price does it pay for it? You only have to tell me. "
"Hi, it turned out to be you!" Scholar said. "This is so strange! I never thought that a person's old shadow would come back like a person!"
"Please tell me what I should pay," the shadow, " Because I hate the debts that owe others. "
" How can you say this? "Scholar said. "What debts are you talking about now? Like anyone, you are free! You have such a good luck, I feel very happy. Please sit down, old friends, please tell me some of your past living conditions, and you in that is where you are in that. Tropical countries, what we see in the house opposite us. "
" yes, I can tell you, "the shadow said. So he sat down. "But please promise me: where you meet me wherever you meet, please don't tell anyone in this city, saying that I used to be your shadow! I am now interested in engaging, because I am more than enough for my ability to support a family."
"Please rest assured," the scholar said, "I will never tell anyone about your original face. Please hold my hand. I promise you. R n
"A shadow -talk is a word!" The shadow said, because he had to say that.
The is really amazing, how complete he is now. He was all black dress: he was wearing the best black clothes, patent leather shoes, and a hat that could stack only one top and side hat. In addition, he also has the amulets, gold necklaces and diamond rings we already know. The shadow is really beautiful. It was this dress that made him look like a person.
"Let me tell you now," the shadow said. So he stepped on the arm of his new shadow in the new shadow of his patent leather shoes -he was lying under his feet like a little lion dog. This approach may be because of pride, or because he wants to stick this new shadow on his feet. But this shadow is very quiet because it wants to listen to their speech quietly. It also wants to know how a shadow can get freedom and become his own master.
"Do you know who is in the room opposite?" The shadow asked. "That's the cutest person in all creatures; that's poetry! I lived there for three weeks. This makes people seem to live there for a thousand years and read all the poems and articles in the world. I dare to say this, and this is the truth. I saw everything, I knew everything! "
" Poetic God! "Scholar yelled. "Yes, yes! She often lives in a large city as a hermit. Poetry God! Yes, I saw her for a while, but my eyelids were pressed heavy at that time; she stood on the balcony On, send out -Tao is very similar to the light of the northern light. Please tell me! Please tell me! You were standing on the balcony. You walked into that door, so- "
"So I walked into the front room," the shadow said. "At that time, you were sitting opposite, always looking towards this front room. There was no light there, there was only a vague light. The door and room, the door was opened one by one; the room was lit in the room. If it weren't for me to go in directly, I would be killed by this strong light. But I am It's very calm, I wait quietly -this is exactly what a person should take. "
" What did you see? "The scholar asked.
"I saw everything, I will tell you all. But -this is not my arrogance -as a free person, plus all my knowledge, not to mention my noble position And superior conditions -I hope you call me as 'you'. "
" Please forgive! "Scholar said," This is an old habit, it is not easy to remove. —— You are not easy to remove. It's absolutely correct, I must remember. But now please tell me what you see. "
" Everything! "The shadow said," Because I saw everything, at the same time, I know everything. "
" What is everything in that inner room? "The scholar asked. "Is it like in a fresh air forest? Is it like in a temple? Are those rooms standing like a star fighting on the mountains?"
"Everything there is there," the shadow said, "I didn't go into it completely, just standing in the dark front room, but my status there was very good. I saw everything, I know everything. I used to I have been in the palace of the former Fangshi. "
" But what do you see? Is there an ancient deity in those halls? Competition? Are there beautiful children playing there and talk about the dreams they have made there? "
" I tell you, I have been there, so you know that I see it there. Everything I can see! If you have been there, you will not be another person; but I have become a person, and I also learn to understand my inner nature, my essence and me and me and me and me and me and me. The relationship between poetry. Yes, when I was with you before, I never thought of these things. However It is more real than you. At that time, I didn't know the nature of my innerness; I recognized it only in that front room. I became a person!
"I was completely formed. You are no longer in those warm kingdoms. As a person, I feel that it is shameful to appear in the original form: I need all kinds of modifications that leather shoes, clothes, and a specific person should have -I hide it myself; yes, I will tell you all this It's -please don't write it into any book. I ran under the skirt of the cake -selling woman and hid in it. This woman didn't know how big she hid. At first I only came out at night, and I walked under the moonlight on the street. I stretched on the wall for a long time, which made me feel itchy and weird! I ran up and down, and I looked at the living room through the highest windows; I looked at the places that I couldn't see through the roof; I saw anything that no one had seen and who should not see. Throughout, this is a despicable and dirty world! If it wasn't for everyone to think that it would be a great thing to be a person, I would never want to be a person.
"I see some of the most incredible things that happened among men, women, parents, and 'dear children. Things -The bad things their neighbors do. If I write these things in the newspaper, then there are more people! But I only write it to some related people, so which city I go to, so I go to which city, and There is a scary for a city. People are so scared of me, but they all like me very much. The professor selected me as a professor; the tailor gave me new clothes to wear, and I was not lacking. ; Women say that I look beautiful! -This, I will become such a person now. Cough, I want to say goodbye now. This is my business card; I live on the side of the sun. It rains At home, I always at home. "
The shadow farewell.
"This is really rare," the scholar said.
Prevarinations have passed. The shadow came to visit again.
"How are you?" He asked.
"Oh!" Scholar said, "I am writing articles about truth, goodness, and beauty. But no one wants to listen to such things; I am a little disappointed because it makes me me Sad. "
" but I don't do this, "the shadow said. "I am growing up and fat -a person should be like this. You don't know this world, so you are about to get sick. You should go to travel. I am going to run outside this summer; do you come too? I hope there is a travel companion. Do you want to be my shadow and come with me? With you, it will be a great pleasure to me. I am willing to bear all your travel expenses. "
" This is a bit too much, "the scholar said.
"This depends on what attitude you take for this question," the shadow replied, "One trip will have great benefits to you. If you are willing to be my shadow, then you will be you will be Get all the benefits of travel, but there is no burden on travel. "
" This is a bit too too! "Scholar said.
"This is what the world is!" The shadow said, "And it will be the case in the future!"
then the shadow left.
The scholar is not completely comfortable. Sorrow and concerns followed him. He talked about the truth, kindness, and beauty to most people, just like roses, like a cow, could not attract interest. ——The finally he was sick.
"You look like a shadow," everyone said to him. When he thought of this sentence, he was half cold.
"You should go to a hot spring to recuperate!" When the shadow came to visit him. "There is no other way. Looking at the division of our old love, I can bring you. I will pay for all the travel expenses. You can describe this trip, and at the same time, you can also let me eliminate pastime on the road to eliminate pastime on the road . I want to go to a hot spring to live. My beard is abnormal, and this is a morbid state. But I must have a beard. Now please let you put a smarter and accept my proposal: We can go as a good friend as a good friend. Traveling. "
This, they went to travel. The shadow is now the master, but the owner has become a shadow. They took the car together, rode the horse together, and walked together together; they sometimes were in front of each other, sometimes in the back, depending on the position of the sun. The shadow always shows the identity of the owner very well. This scholar did not expect this, because he had a kind heart, and he was a particularly gentle and friendly person. So one day the owner said to the shadow:
"We have become a travel companion now -we don't have to doubt this; at the same time, we have grown up from a young age, should we worship as brothers? You can become more intimate. "
" You are right! "The shadow said -he is actually the master now," Your sentence is very straightforward, and the intention is good. I am now too. You have to meet with sincerity and say whatever you want. You are a learned person; I think you know how weird human nature is. Some people can't touch the gray paper -they hate it as soon as they see the gray paper and hate it when they see the gray paper. . Some people see a person with a nail on the glass window and shake all over. I hear you call me 'you', and I also feel the same. Like the relationship between you, I think I feel like I am Being on the ground. You need to know that this is a feeling, not a question of self -prize. I can't let you say "you ', but I am willing to call you" you'. Don't suffer. "
From then on, the shadow has called his former owner as" you ".
"This is a bit too hot," the latter thought, "I have to shout‘ you ’, but he calls me‘ you ’.” But he had to endure it.
. They came to a hot spring. There are many foreigners here; there is a beautiful princess among them. She got a disease, that is, her eyes were very sharp to see things -this can make people feel extremely disturbed.
. She immediately noticed that the new character is different from other people.
"Everyone said that he came here to make his beard grow. However, I can see the real reason -he can't project a shadow." So she immediately talked to the strange gentleman on the walking field. As a princess, she is not necessary to be polite, so she said to him straightforwardly:
"Your problem is not to project shadows."
The body is much better, "the shadow said," I know your fault is: you see that things are too sharp. But this problem is gone, you have cured. I have a very unusual shadow! You did not watch it without watching it! Is it this person who is old with me? Others have an ordinary shadow, but I don’t like ordinary things. Some people like to wear uniforms that are better than their own clothes materials; I want to make my shadow dress like an independent person. You can see that I still let him have a shadow. This cost is not small, but I like a little different. "
" How! "The princess thought. "Has my illness really cured? This is the best hot spring in the world. Its water now has a strange power. But I don't plan to leave here now, because this place began to make me very interested. This stranger is very teasing my love. I just hope that his beard should not grow, because if he grows up, then he will leave. "
Dancing. Her body is light, but his body is lighter. She has never met such a dancing person. She told him which country she came from, and he knew the country -he had been there, but she had left. He once watched the interior of her palace from the window -he saw it up and down. He saw this and saw that. So he can answer the princess's question, and at the same time implies some things -this makes her very surprised. He must be the smartest person in the world! So she paid infinite respect for his knowledge. When she danced with him again, she couldn't help but love him. The shadow noticed this, because her eyes were always staring at him.
. She danced again with him. She almost said what she had in her heart, but she was a person who knew how to be seized: she thought of her country. Her kingdom and the people she are going to rule.
"He is a smart person," she said to herself. "This is very good; and he dances well -this is also very good. But I don't know if his knowledge is deep? This is also an important question: you must investigate it."
So she immediately asked him a question that was very difficult and could not even answer. The shadow made a ghost.
"You can't answer," the princess said.
"I knew it when I was a kid," the shadow said, "And I believe, even my shadow standing at the door can be answered."
"You you you The shadow! "The princess yelled," That's really amazing. "
" I don't say he can answer it, "the shadow said," but I believe he can answer. He has been following me and listening to me. But His Royal Highness forgives, I want to remind you that he thinks he is alone and proud of it; so if you want to make him feel good, make him answer the question correctly Then you have to treat him as a real person. "
" I can do this, "the princess said.
So she walked to the scholar standing beside the door. She talked to him about the sun and the moon, the human heart and appearance; the scholar answered both clever and correct.
"There is such a smart shadow, it must not be an ordinary person," she thinks. "If I chose him as my husband, it must be a great luck for my country and the people. —— I want to do this!"
So they -princess and shadow shadow ——In the understanding immediately. But before she returned to her kingdom, no one could know it.
"No one knows -even my shadow will not know," the shadow said. He said this sentence for his own reason.
. They returned to the country ruled by the princess at home.
"Please listen, my good friend," the shadow told scholars. "I have the luck and power I can get now, I have all. I have to do something special for you now. You will always live in my palace with me and take my royal family with me Royal car, and you can receive 100,000 yuan a year. But you have to let everyone call you a shadow, and at the same time, you will never be allowed to say that you used to be a person. Annual, when I sit on the balcony, I sit on the balcony sunlight When let everyone see me ②, you have to lie down at my feet like a shadow. I can tell you that I am about to marry the princess; the wedding is held tonight. "
n n n n n n n n n n n R n "Hey, this is too hot!" Scholar said. "I can't accept it, I will never do such things. This is simply deceiving the princess and the people of the whole country. I want to tell everything -I am a person, you are a shadow, you are just dressed like a person like a person "
" No one will believe you! "The shadow said. "Please be smarter, otherwise I will call the guards!"
"I will tell the princess directly!" Scholar said.
"But I will go better than you," the shadow said; "You will enter the prison."
It Marrying the princess, so he obeyed his command.
"You are shaking," the princess said when the shadow walked into the room. "What's wrong? We are about to get married, you can't get sick tonight!"
"I meet the most appalling things in the world!" The shadow said. "Please think about it! —Ly, of course, a poor shadow's mind can't stand it -please think! My shadow is crazy: he fantasized him to become a person; he thought -please think -please think about it Think -he thought I was his shadow! "
" This is terrible! "The princess said. "I think he has been locked up?"
"Of course. I am afraid he will never recover rationality."
"He is unfortunately unfortunately. It is a good way to get out of his small life. When I think about it carefully, I feel that it is necessary to settle him silently. "
" This is certainly a bit too hot, because he has always been a very loyal servant, "the shadow said, at the same time pretending to sigh.
"You are really a noble person," the princess said, bowed deeply in front of him.
The light of the whole city that night; the ritual cannon is radiation — bombardment! The soldiers were paying tribute. This is a wedding! The princess and the shadow showed to the people on the balcony and accepted the cheers from the masses again.
The scholars did not hear the grand celebration at all, because he had been executed.
① In Europe, especially in the folk, people often bring some gadgets around them, superstitious that they can bring good luck.
② In Europe, according to the convention left by the feudal era, the king and queen, or princess and horses, when they go to the balcony every year on the National Day holiday, answering the people who cheered outside.
