The friendship between men is very strange. They may dislike each other one moment, but they become close friends the next moment.

Of course, Carter and Edward are purely because they are both terminally ill, so although they are completely different classes, different backgrounds, etc. in reality, from the moment they are admitted to the same ward, in fact,

They are truly the same kind of people.

They are all people who can only wait for death to come.

They finally came to another stop, the Great Wall.

The two people were covered in dust and looked at the sunset.

Carter once again turned into a history professor: "You know, this city wall was actually built section by section, and it was not until Qin Shihuang got it that he connected it to defend against the Huns in the north."

Edward asked, "Will that work?"

Carter asked, "Have you ever heard that the Mongols had a Great Wall?"

Edward was speechless: "I wonder how many of these weird things you have collected in your head. How do you think a guy who repairs cars knows such things?"

Yes, why does a car mechanic know so many things?

The audience couldn't help but laugh.

Carter looked like a scholar and said: "Actually, what you have to ask is, how could a person with so much knowledge end up just being a car mechanic?"

Edward shrugged: "Okay, that's what I asked."

Carter looked into the distance and said, "Of course my ideals are higher."

Edward: "What's the result?"

Carter was disappointed: "As a result, life... the pipes are cracked, the roof is leaking, and there is something that needs to be reinforced. Before you realize it, two bedrooms are not enough for you. You have to do everything you can to protect you."

family."

In fact, what Carter said was deeply touching to many people who watched the movie. Who has truly realized their ideal?

For example, is being a film critic their ideal?

Or is being a journalist their ideal?

This question is very cliche, but when it comes out of Carter's mouth, it is different, because he is a person who has no chance to realize his ideal. Even if he is desperate, he has no time.

After Edward pondered for a while: "I have seen an archaeological film on the BBC, which said that even the most primitive villages had to build a wall to surround them."

Carter asked knowingly: "Is that so?"

Edward: "The irony is that when people discovered these sites, only these walls were left there, and the things they were built to protect had long since been destroyed."

Carter looked at the magnificent winding Great Wall: "This is the only exception!"

Edward nodded and said with deep understanding: "So China is really a mystery."

The camera zoomed out to give a panoramic shot. In the shot, Carter and Edward stood on the Great Wall, as if they were on the other side of the world, watching the sunset disappear under the horizon.

Although the movie is about death, in fact, it has not deliberately exaggerated death so far. It is more of a spiritual journey, or a journey that can be taken at once.

Of course, this depends on having enough money.

After leaving the Great Wall, they came to the door of a temple at the foot of the Himalayas and looked at the mist-shrouded mountains in the distance.

In the back is Thomas talking on his cell phone.

Carter said: "If you could see its true face, it would be even more majestic."

Edward turned his attention elsewhere. He was carefully watching an elderly Tibetan woman worshiping in front of the Buddha statue.

Edward pursed his lips: "Have you seen that old woman? We will probably die before her."

Carter said jokingly: "Thinking about making people happy."

Edward continued: "She probably already has a reincarnation that will succeed her. According to their concept, this should be the case."

Carter once again transformed into an omniscient history professor: "Buddhists believe that people can be reincarnated. After reincarnation, they will rise to a level or fall to a level, depending on how you spend this life, until you finally enter the paradise world."

Edward said: "Some religions, such as the Asan religion and so on, believe that if you behave randomly, you will become a beast or a bug in the next life, right?"

Carter was noncommittal: "I heard that's the case."

Edward: "Look, this is what they make me confused about. How can you come back to the world again if this is the case? I mean, what is a snail supposed to do to get to the next level? Use Yi liquid to leave a perfect trail.

trace?"

At this time Thomas came over.

Thomas is still the capable assistant. He said: "There is bad news and there is worse news. Which one should you listen to first?"

Edward seemed to be used to Thomas' style: "Article 1."

Thomas said: "There's a blizzard in the mountains."

Edward didn't particularly care: "Thank you for the report. This is something that was unpredictable."

Thomas added: "The helicopter won't take off for us until the weather improves."

Carter on the side asked: "When will the weather get better?"

Thomas gave an outrageous answer: "Next spring, this will be the second news, the worse news, if you want to know."

Edward looked at Carter: "What a shame, Carter."

Carter did have some regrets, but still said: "Yeah, then, maybe come back next time."

But he also knew clearly that there would be no next time. That’s why he felt regretful, after all, he was here.

Edward murmured: "Yes, next spring."

Carter stared at the distant mountains and was silent for a while.

Then he asked: "What should we do now?"

Edward smiled: "Maybe your mountain is trying to remind us something."

Carter couldn't understand what Edward said: "What did you say?"

"Maybe we've been out long enough," Edward said.

Carter asked rhetorically: "Long enough for who?"

Edward spread his hands and shrugged, meaning: "Do you even need to ask?"

Carter said angrily: "Oh, I understand. The mountain is not reminding us that we should go home, but it is reminding you to remind me that it is time to go home. Then just fuck your own heart and let me fuck my own.

My own heart."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Edward comforted: "OK, OK... there is no need for you to be angry with me."

Carter said angrily: "What the hell are you angry about? I mean what should I do next?"

Edward thought for a while and said: "Hong Kong Island, buy silk clothes and eat black walnut ice cream."

Carter nodded: "Okay, let's go to Hong Kong Island."

In the next shot, they appeared inside the InterContinental Hotel on Hong Kong Island.

Through the glass curtain wall of the hotel lobby, the night view of Hong Kong Island is displayed on the big screen. The bright lights and towering buildings are extremely shocking. Tourists from all over the world gather in the lobby.

Carter sat alone at the bar, sipping a glass of scotch and chatting with the bartender.

Carter turned into a history professor: "Tibetans call it Qomolangma, which means "Snow Mountain Goddess."

A woman's voice sounded: "Actually, it should be the "Goddess of the World."

The woman sat down at the bar across from him. The man was about 40 years old, black, and dressed in a well-made formal suit.

The woman added: "According to the authentic Tibetan translation."

Carter said to the woman: "Thank you for your advice."

The woman said to the bartender: "A glass of Pinot Noir."

Then he turned to Carter and said, "So you have been there."

Carter shook his head: "I just came from there. I originally wanted to climb once, but the weather..."

The woman nodded: "It's a little too late for you to go now."

Carter said helplessly: "People say the same thing. By the way, my name is Carter."

The woman shook hands with him: "My name is Angelica...please forgive me, is it inappropriate for you to climb such a peak at your age?"

Carter smiled and said: "Not only is it inappropriate, you put it too tactfully."

She turned towards him slightly and gave a smile that seemed to indicate that this did not answer her question...

The woman, Angelica, asked seriously: "Then what's your interest?"

Carter was a little confused: "I'm sorry, I didn't understand."

Angelica curiously asked Carter why he suddenly thought of climbing Mount Everest?

Carter borrowed the words of the first man to climb Mount Everest: "People don't decide to be extraordinary. They can only decide to do extraordinary things."

Carter thinks that he is still far from extraordinary, but his erudition still makes Angelica praise him!
