Chapter 364 Memorial
In the end, Jiang Qin didn't buy anything. She took the two of them for a walk nearby, watching the busy robots shuttling through the streets.
Because all bars were closed for three days, she didn't go to make up for the missed No. 1 residency.
After walking around, she found that she had nowhere to go except Tianwen Company.
When passing by an open space, she found that someone was burning paper for worship.
However, paper money is not real paper, but a holographic projection.
…
These days, even bad checks are written to the underworld?
She was wearing a mask, so when people looked closely, no one noticed that she was Jiang Qin.
Passersby looked at the people in front of them who seemed to be performing some kind of ritual in confusion and asked, "Does anyone know what they are doing?"
"I know they are holding a memorial ceremony.
This is an ancient memorial ceremony. It is said that burning paper money can give the deceased money to spend in the underworld.
Burning incense can attract the souls of the dead to receive the offerings burned in the past."
"Ah? But...this isn't burned?"
The paper money is a holographic video player, and the incense is electronic incense, which is something that looks like incense but is actually a lamp.
Only cubs would like to play with this kind of thing, right?
"There's nothing we can do. These things are considered luxuries in our current era, and no one knows how to make them!
Make a video. Electronic incense is fine, as long as it has a shape. But who can make one that looks like the ones in Liao Zhai? "
They don't even know what paper money and the smell of incense taste like.
Is it the smell of burning paper? Or is it the smell of peace that TV dramas describe?
So they can only make fake ones.
This memorial ceremony was also learned from the stories in Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, and it was a ceremony dedicated to the souls of those who died on the front lines.
If it were in the past, when everyone was ignorant, who would care about this kind of ceremony!
After all, they don't know that there is such a thing as an afterlife.
In the eyes of interstellar people, dead is dead.
The dead will be burned into ashes and scattered at the institute’s natural plant base to contribute to nature.
They have a clear understanding of death and are used to people they know suddenly and unexpectedly dying at some point in time.
This is also the reason why the relationships between most people are not too deep.
They cannot understand the emotions in one or two units of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio.
For example, the unit "Xiao Xie" can now be watched on demand in advance.
They couldn't understand why Xiao Xie would fall in love with a poor scholar who had nothing. They also couldn't understand why a poor scholar who had nothing didn't choose a rich lady, but instead chose a female ghost who didn't even have any warmth.
If he chooses the rich lady, he will get a backer, a bright future, and a beautiful and noble partner.
Flesh and blood, and I love him.
Although she has a bad temper, in the eyes of interstellar people, a female's bad temper is the most insignificant shortcoming.
Even if a person has bad character, there are still people who are willing to go along with him.
The only thing he couldn't accept was that his mistress was just a soul.
What’s the difference between something like this and a holographic projection person!
So they don’t understand why the male protagonist is not afraid of death for Xiao Xie.
And Xiao Xie is also willing to die for the male protagonist.
But it must be said that because of the flesh-and-blood and emotional drama "Liao Zhai", their emotions have become much richer.
At the very least, people have begun to worry about whether the deceased can live a prosperous life in the next life.
That's why they gathered here to pay tribute.
I always feel like I have to do something to feel better.
