What I see is → →Everyone is tending to describe themselves well. Human nature so hypocritical

"In the Bamboo Grove" by Ryunosuke Akutagawa is not a long story, but it made me feel sad while reading it. A corpse in the bamboo forest triggered a tragic story. No one can tell the truth clearly, because everyone sees it differently. What the woodcutter saw was only the scene when the body was found, objective and superficial, just like a photo, just for statement. What the traveling monk saw was the man's appearance when he was alive, but mixed with his compassion. The capturer's confession was only used to prove the probability of Tajomaru being the murderer from beginning to end. But the old woman only wanted a result, she wanted to see people alive, and she wanted to see the body after death, even if her description of her daughter and son-in-law in her impression was so firm and vague. Seeing this, a voice inside me said: Someone must have lied. Tajomaru's confession led me to the bamboo forest. He said that because of desire, he started a conspiracy in order to possess the married woman who made him miss him with just one glance. He seduces the woman's husband, Takehiro Kanazawa, with a desire, a man whose eyes light up when he hears the treasure. Then he used a desire to lure the woman in. A smart woman who had already had a premonition and wanted to leave a way to retreat had to be willing to take risks because she heard that her husband was sick. Before entering the bamboo forest, Masa took off her bamboo hat and handed her hand to Tajomaru, thus accepting her fate. Perhaps only she could hear her silent sigh. Masa struggled for the last time but failed to withstand Tajomaru's strength. In the end, she had to face the most tragic result: being possessed by another man in front of her husband. Her injuries, and Takehiro Kanazawa's injuries, are like the thick leaves on the ground, which have been abandoned after all, and can only fall on the ground and wait to wither. After Masa was injured, the first thing she thought of was guilt. She failed to protect herself and indirectly humiliated her husband. She had no face to live, and only wanted to be with him in life and death. But when her eyes met Takehiro Kanazawa's eyes, the contempt and disgust deeply hurt her heart. A woman may only ask for complete love once in her life, and ask for someone who can do his best for herself, but Takehiro Kanazawa never did it. Before she collapsed in complete despair, she shouted: No matter who dies or lives, she will be the wife of the living one. This is her last prayer. She no longer knows who to love, she just wants someone who is willing to give her all for herself. However, Tajomaru kicked her away, and her husband Kanazawa Takehiro disliked her. Even if they fought, what would the result be? In the process, she has seen through everything. She is desperate and has no hope anymore. Life and death are just one word apart. When Tajomaru snatched a wife because of the desire in his heart, when he picked up the sword and fought with her husband, he was so happy. He ignored all the shackles of worldly ethics, just for the wish in his heart. But when he got it, realized it, and possessed it, when the woman he was passionate about and vowed to marry as his wife asked him to kill her husband, he hesitated. Maybe he was not the one who stabbed her with the knife in the end. But was his happy smile because of the so-called self-salvation? When Takehiro Kanazawa's soul revealed the circumstances of his suicide, his resentment and hatred were moving. His experience was indeed lamentable, but he never saw his own fault. It was his greed and neglect of his wife's safety. It was his attitude that made his wife lose her last hope. It was his cowardice that ended his life. But he is still struggling in the dark. He can't forget the injury he suffered and the pain of his wife's betrayal. Tajomaru, Kanazawa Takehiro, and Masa are not happy, and they can't do whatever they want and stay the same. If there is desire, fight to the end; if there is no desire, then end it cruelly. It's a pity that Tajomaru took it away recklessly, but wanted to redeem himself at the last moment; Masa wanted to end his life in despair, but lost his courage again and again, and he sank into repentance and hopeless pain all day long; Kanazawa Takehiro put the treasure first, but was unable to bear the loss caused by greed, and died cowardly, but his ghost lingered, telling his misfortune. People outside the bamboo forest can always see beauty easily, but deep in the bamboo forest, the ground is full of fragments. The prism reflects multiple selves. The deeper you go, the more clearly you see a picture of purgatory on earth: survival is often crueler than fate, but no one is willing to admit defeat. If I could just be a Tajomaru and make you happy, that would be good. If I could be a Takehiro Kanazawa, greedy to the end and forgetting myself, that would be good too. Unfortunately, the desire to have both has turned into obsession and delusion. If you want to be persistent, if you want to be crazy, you have to struggle in this worldly world, Infernal Affairs. I really hope that this story is just a dream, just to relieve the pain of waking up in the dream.

Ouch~ It's absolutely impossible not to spread flowers!!!
