On that day, there were so many tourists that people surrounded it like a wall. There are four officials sitting in the hall, all in red robes, facing each other. At that time, I was still young and didn't know what an official class was. I heard a lot of noise and the drums were loud.
Suddenly, a man, with a boy with long hair and a bag on his back, came to class, as if he had said something, but it was crowded with people, and he couldn't hear what he said, only the people in the hall were laughing. Then, an official in black sent a message to them to take action.
The man agreed and was about to perform when he suddenly asked, "What's the trick?" The people in the class discussed a few words with each other, saw an official coming in the hall and asked him what good tricks he had. The man replied, "I can reverse the seasons of living things and grow all kinds of things." After reporting back to work, the officer came down and said to let him perform and get peaches.
The juggler nodded in agreement, took off his clothes and covered the bamboo box, pretending to complain, and said, "Officials really don't understand. At present, the ice has not melted. Where can I get peaches? " Don't take it, for fear of making the official angry. what can I do? The son said, "Dad has promised. How can he refuse?" "
The magician was embarrassed for a while and said, "I've thought about it seriously." It's still early spring, and the ice and snow haven't melted yet. Where can I find peaches on earth? " Only in the flat peach garden of the Queen Mother, the seasons are like spring, and there may be peaches. However, you must steal peaches from the sky. "The son said," Hey! Can the sky go up like a step? "
The juggler said, "I have my own way." Say that finish, just open the bamboo box and take out a mass of rope, which is about dozens of feet long. He picked out a rope end and threw it into the air. The rope is actually hanging in the air, as if something is holding it. I watched the rope rise, rising higher and higher, vaguely rising to the clouds, and the rope in my hand was used up.
At this time, he called his son to his side and said, "Come on, son, I'm old, tired and all thumbs, and I can't get up.". Please go for me. " Then he gave one end of the rope to his son and said, "Grab this rope and you can climb up."
The son took the rope and looked embarrassed. He complained, "Dad is really senile. Such a thin rope told me to climb to the sky along it. The rope broke in half and broke when it fell. " Father coaxed and said seriously, "I have promised others, and it is too late to regret it." I'd better trouble my son to go. "
Don't be afraid of suffering. If you can steal peaches, you will be rewarded with one hundred gold coins. Then I must marry you a beautiful daughter-in-law. "The son is helpless, holding the rope with his hand and hovering upwards; Feet move up with their hands, just like spiders walking on the screen, gradually disappearing into the clouds and out of sight. After a while, a peach fell from the sky, the size of a bowl.
The juggler was very happy, holding peaches in his hands and giving them to the whole class. After watching it for a long time, the officials in the class couldn't tell whether it was true or not. At this time, the rope suddenly fell from the sky, and the juggler shouted in horror: "Oh, no! Someone cut the rope in the sky. How can my son come down? " After a while, another thing fell. At first glance, it turned out to be his son's head.
Holding his son's head, he cried and said, "This must have been found by the breeder when he stole peaches. My son is finished. " While crying, another foot fell from the sky; Soon, the limbs and trunk fell down one after another.
The juggler is very sad. He picked them up one by one and put them in the box. Then he added a cover and said, "The old man has only one son who comes and goes with me every day. Now, according to the official strict order, I didn't expect such a tragic disaster, so I had to carry him back for burial. "
So he went to the class, knelt down and begged, "My son was killed for stealing peaches! Adults are poor little people. Please give me some money to clean my son's bones. In the future, I will repay the kindness of the officials when I die. "
The officials in the class were shocked and everyone gave him a lot of money to reward him. He took the money and wrapped it around his waist, stepped down from the class, patted the box with his hand and said, "Baba, don't hurry out, thank you for your money." When are you waiting? " Suddenly, a disheveled child opened the box cover with his head, came out of the box and kowtowed to the class. At first glance, it turned out to be his son.
Because this move is so amazing that I still remember it deeply until now. Later, it was said that the White Lotus Sect could cast this spell. I think this may be their offspring.
Extended data:
The story is about the Spring Festival that Xiao Pu spent in Beijing when he was a child, and he saw a vivid transformation process. It was a father and son picking peaches in front of an official in the queen mother's garden. The son finally picked peaches, which was also discovered by heaven and executed.
When the officials saw this, they all felt sorry for the magician. They all donated money to bury his son. After the magician received the money, he let his son climb out of the laundry list intact and thanked the official.
The experience of watching the play made Xiaopu become Laopu when she grew up, which shows that this drama deeply touched Xiaopu's inner complex, but Laopu seems to have rationalized her memories and feelings with the help of the influence of White Lotus.
From the perspective of psychoanalysis, children hope to gain their parents' love by meeting their parents' expectations and requirements, but in fact, it is more from their parents' inner anxiety. Children believe that only by meeting parents' expectations and requirements can parents' anxiety be alleviated and parents can love themselves without hurting themselves.
As children grow up, they internalize these parts that constitute the superego, and may enter the subconscious. Children will slowly and unconsciously show their constant pursuit of perfection, constantly demanding themselves with higher requirements, regardless of whether their abilities can be achieved.
In Stealing Peach, it was impossible for the illusionist's specialty to "reverse biology" at that time, which represented the expectation of reaching the highest requirements in superego; The official idea of "picking peaches" represents a harsh part of superego. Make sure that expectations and requirements are fulfilled, and if they are not fulfilled, they will be punished.
Therefore, children can only choose to obey, even if there is a sea of knives and mountains in front, they will not hesitate to die. In this article, the magician's child risked his life to secretly pick peaches in the garden of the Queen Mother in the sky, and finally "died".
But doing so can get the affirmation and love of the superego. Just like this, the result was some pity and reward from the officials. Finally, they returned to the basket symbolizing the "cradle", got the love they expected, and gained self-rebirth.
Why did the child risk his life to steal the most precious peach because of his father's boasting of Haikou and the requirements of officials, but only got some rewards from officials, which made Lao Pu still remember it for a long time? Because everyone has such a knot that "only the perfect one deserves to be loved", even if I grew up as an old one, I still have such a knot.
At that time, Xiao Pu was still very good, winning the first place in county, government and road. However, no matter how hard Lao Pu tried, unfortunately, he lost his reputation in Sun Shan many times. It was not until 7 1 year old that he became a tribute student.
After seeing the illusion, Xiao Pu's inner complex was touched. Pu Songling was born in a declining family of small and medium-sized landlords and businessmen, and his family was getting worse and worse. It can be guessed that Xiao Pu's parents have high expectations for him, probably hoping that Xiao Pu can succeed in giving lectures and help his family out of trouble.
Xiao Pu also felt that in order to get the greatest love from his parents, he must meet their expectations, so he turned Xiao Pu into Lao Pu and continued to take the imperial examination. Isn't this illusion a metaphor of Pu Songling's subconscious?
In our real life, many people always want to do better, always feel that they don't earn enough money, always feel that their abilities are not good enough and so on. On the one hand, the pursuit of perfection can make us work harder to do everything well, but on the other hand, it will also bring great pressure to ourselves, because "better" and "not good enough" are endless standards that can never be achieved.
Similarly, in a relationship, some people always try their best to meet each other's requirements, and there will be a lot of self-blame if they fail to do so. So it's not that we are bad, but that we subconsciously expect such efforts to get better love from our parents. We are also using our own efforts to prove that we are good enough to be loved by our parents.
In fact, every parent has his own limitations, not that he doesn't love his children, nor that his children are not good enough, but that he really hasn't learned how to love them better. Now we need to learn to love and take care of ourselves besides expecting our parents to love us.
