Chapter 26, Entering Robinson Crusoe 1 For experienced travelers in infinite space who have traveled through various worlds, fought against gods and demons, and experienced countless adventures, the plot world of Robinson Crusoe can indeed be called an absolutely warm, absolutely safe, and absolutely boring world. place. yznn Robinson Crusoe, this popular world-famous book and the originator of desert island survival literature and farming novels, was written by the British writer Daniel Defoe in 1719.
Among the more famous Western classical novels today, Robinson Crusoe can be said to be the oldest one that debuted very early.
War and Peace, Les Miserables, etc. were all born about a century and a half after it.
The theme of this novel is very simple, basically survival on a tropical desert island.
It also alludes to the adventurous spirit of Europeans in the Age of Discovery, and reflects their ambition and dream to open up and conquer the world.
The protagonist Robinson Crowe Suo was born in a middle-class family in Yorkshire, England.
His father often taught him the philosophy of contentment and asked him to be content with the status quo.
But the new world overseas tempted him like an irresistible attraction.
The ambitious Robinson finally gave up his comfortable and mediocre life and decided to go on a long voyage.
The first time he went to sea, he almost drowned.
The second time he was kidnapped by pirates.
After escaping, he opened a plantation in Brazil and made a fortune.
But he still longed for the excitement and excitement of sailing, so he teamed up to sell black slaves in Africa.
Unexpectedly, he encountered a shipwreck again on the way and was stranded alone on a desert island, thus beginning his twenty-eight-year long life on the island.
On this uninhabited tropical island in the South Pacific, Robinson did not give up on himself.
After overcoming the initial pessimism and despair, he immediately devoted himself to the struggle to conquer nature.
He relied on his own hands and his mind. the wisdom of using the simple tools left behind on the ship , overcoming countless difficulties, miraculously left many traces of human civilization on the desert island.
They built houses, dug caves, built fences, domesticated goats, planted grains, made canoes, baked pottery, processed flour, and baked bread. etc., so that they can "live a prosperous life".
In the end, he actually had his own plantation, pasture, two residences, many furniture, and even a lively family including dogs, cats, sheep, and parrots.
In fact, these tasks are not easy.
Each one requires Robinson a lot of labor and a long time.
However, he always fails and tries again.
He never loses his infinite courage and perseverance to conquer nature.
The spirit gives the image of Robinson a great artistic charm.
Of course, as a typical European colonist, while playing legendary poems about conquering nature, Robinson also did not forget to conquer mankind.
He used muskets and Bibles to overwhelm the local natives, making "Friday" willingly do his part.
A loyal servant.
He fought tenaciously against nature for half his life, not only to survive, but also to possess more wealth and land: before anyone else appeared on the island, Robinson proclaimed himself the king of the desert island and said with great ambition : "Everything here is mine."
Then he forced other people on the island to admit that they were his subjects.
Even after escaping the danger and returning to England, Robinson did not forget the hard-working foundation of the island.
He always tried his best to maintain his rule over the island.
He also started a war with the nearby indigenous people and fought against the bloody massacre in the future.
The American pioneers who exterminated the Indians were no different Closer to home, although the novel Robinson Crusoe is quite exciting, for those who actually set foot in it, this place is very boring.
There are no monsters, no beauties, and no treasures.
There is only a slovenly man.
The unbearable English foot-picking man.
Well, of course, if we enter the later stage of the story, then there may be a group of cannibals and a group of European pirates.
Fortunately, when Wang Qiu and Suzumiya Haruhi, who unfortunately fell into the water, managed to get around the rocks and swam to the empty beach of this tropical desert island, they saw neither cannibals nor pirates in their field of vision, only Senior Sister Ma Tong.
With her wet hair hanging loose, she was wearing a tight-fitting swimsuit with a very sci-fi style, lying lazily in the middle of the beach, basking in the sun in a daze.
She wore sunglasses on her face, and at her hand were a bottle of sunscreen oil, a can of sports drink, a dagger, and a change of damp clothes.
She was obviously in a relatively moist situation.
"Hey, Senior Ma Tong, get up, get up, is this a safe place to sleep?
Do you think you are in Hawaii?"
Seeing this rotten girl looking as lazy as if she was on a seaside vacation, Wang Qiu was so angry that he quickly rushed up to her, shook her shoulders vigorously, and shouted to her, "Have you ever Meet Robinson or where else is Friday?”
"Stop shaking, I'm not asleep."

Ma Tong muttered dissatisfiedly, but finally managed to open his eyes, "I just swam for a full hour before landing.
All the bones in my body felt like they were broken, and my legs were cramped.
No matter what, I have to rest for a while before I can walk."
Well, it seems that the location where Senior Ma Tong fell into the sea unfortunately seems to be further away from the island than Wang Qiu and Suzumiya Haruhi.
"What about the others?"
Wang Qiu continued to ask, "Your clothes seem to have been brought out by Doraemon."
"Ah yes, he, Nagato Yuki, and Koizumi Kazuki came ashore earlier than me.
It seemed like they were on the shore as soon as they came out.
It's really good luck."
Ma Tong turned over and sighed, "They have all gone now Robinson's beach house was searched, but Robinson seems not to be there.
If you want to find them, just go there by yourself, just under the cliff at the back, surrounded by a fence."
She stretched out a hand diagonally and pointed at the only visible trace of civilization in her field of vision: a circle of wooden picket fences under the cliff.
Robinson's so-called "beach house" is not far from the beach, under a not-so-high cliff.
In front of the cliff is a small flat grassland, less than a hundred meters wide and less than two hundred meters long.
Below the grass is a gentle slope that extends to the beach by the sea.
Perhaps because the land is too barren, except for a circle of coconut trees by the beach, vegetation is quite sparse on both cliffs and gentle slopes, and there are even fewer trees.
Therefore, even if there are no roads, ordinary people can easily They all walked from the seaside to the edge of the cliff.
In order to protect his little possessions from possible thieves, Robinson inserted a circle of strong wooden stakes outside the "beach house", with the tops sharpened.
Then ropes were tied and reinforced with rammed earth to form a very strong and solid semicircular fence.
No one or beast could rush in or climb over the fence.
Inside the fence are the wooden houses and caves dug by Robinson to store precious food, tools, firearms and belongings.
As for the entrance and exit of the villa, he did not build a door on the fence.
Instead, he used a short ladder to climb in from the top of the fence, and then put away the ladder after entering.
This way you can completely isolate yourself from the outside world, and you can sit back and relax at night.
However, Robinson soon discovered that there was no need to be so heavily guarded on this uninhabited island where no one else lived.
And when a real invader appears, this level of defenses will be of no use at all.
For example, at this moment, when Wang Qiu used a bamboo dragonfly to fly over the "Beach Villa", he saw that Doraemon had put a ring through the wall on the fence, and Doraemon, Koizumi Kazuki and Nagato Yuki , then they busily rummaged through the wooden houses and caves, throwing gold and silver coins and every other property they could find into the automatic pawn machine, leaving Wang Qiu dumbfounded and embarrassed for a moment.
Is this a break-in or a house raid?
Well, it seems that both have the same meaning.
"Hey, Doraemon, it's true that people can't be judged by their appearance.
Didn't you keep saying that you have to abide by the law and don't want to break the law?
But what are you doing now?
When the master is not around, you break into other people's houses and steal things.
Your moral integrity is at stake.
Where did it fall?”
