I revisited this sci-fi classic with no special effects, and suddenly felt that although the male protagonist was immortal, he was also quite pitiful.
Liu Cixin said that death is a wall, which is infinitely high up, infinitely deep down, and infinitely far to the left and right. In fact, the times are also like this. The male protagonist who broke through the wall of death will hit the more unbreakable wall of the times.
At first glance, the enviable 14,000 years are mostly just standing still in terms of wisdom. Displaced in a religion that was born and passed away. Tired of human beings who keep making mistakes, but don't know what to do. I don't know what I am, I don't know what the universe is, I don't know where the road is going.
Science finally dispels ignorance. The male protagonist has enough time to study every major branch of science, and he can be unafraid before being questioned by 6 university professors. I finally understood what my 14,000 years were to the universe—it was nothing.
But in this era of big science, as long as human beings do not advance civilization as a whole, there is basically nothing one person can do. The immortal, he still had to stop in front of the wall of the times, waiting for the wall to slowly move on the plain of ignorance that did not know where it ended.
