I made a mistake that most people do, stupid me.
This show isn't some bullshit detective show at all. Flowing in appearances, will die of ignorance.
Under this skin, you cannot see his soul with the naked eye.
The story is about the process of carefully selecting the human host of the Yellow King leader through a series of ceremonies.
From the antler corpse in the first episode, to Rust's self-talk and a series of "psychics", to the ritual announcement of the congregation. Think about it from another perspective, under the premise of such a historical framework, social background, environmental public opinion, and technological level. If you were a member of a cult church, how would you worship this great being?
This is a step-by-step visualization process, although the specific details may not be known.
By sacrificing deer antler female corpses to worship the leader of the yellow robe, with such a "performance art", it attracts and inspires related "interested people". One type of person is a high-perception person (may become a host or a sacrifice in the future), and another type of person is a fellow. And the true detectives traced it step by step, only to find the minions who were specifically executed offline. Just like the octopus-like operating system of a secret group like the underworld, such a cult organization must have its power structure. There is no direct book in this film, but from the various obstacles and obstacles encountered by the true detectives, we can know that the upper echelons of the cult also occupy a high position in the operation system of real power.
They raped children, murdered children, performed human sacrifices, even incest, and secretly performed cult rituals. As the greatest doctrine of the existence of the church, how did the loyal congregation bring the yellow-robed leader to the world and accomplish the greatest ceremonial feat?
Rust must be a seemingly "qualified" host sacrifice. I have no doubt that the church leaders have already consulted his information: in his early years, he worked undercover as an anti-drug police officer, divorced and lost his son, smoked LSD, jumped over various bottom lines, and obstructed the normal operation of the church. Rust can withstand the ultimate physical pain. , mental suffering. Getting rid of him not only got rid of potential investigators, but also brought the Huangpao Cult Master to the world.
In the world, apart from the ultimate hand of fate, it is probably a process of seeking benevolence and benevolence. If you search for darkness, you must stare into the abyss. When the fat man inserted the knife into Rust's abdomen, ready to complete the ritual. If it wasn't for Marty's presence, Rust would have given up and was ready to reunite with his daughter and father. Awakened people will take the initiative to choose their destiny. In the last episode rust shot the fat guy in the head with a gun and I think he made a choice.
Did Rust and Marty finally eradicate the dark forces? No, not even at all. This is the self-deception of the so-called bright people. The complexity of human nature cannot be simply expressed in terms of justice, goodness, evil, and indulgence. More than despair, we can only dispel the darkness, but cannot end the darkness. The shadow is on the back of the sun, which contains the ultimate Taoist thought: Yin is within Yang, not the opposite of Yang. Cults are not terrible. The poisoning and control of the free thoughts and will of human groups by cults is the root cause of our community of shared future for mankind. We have been being controlled, domesticated, devoured, without knowing it. Whether you are rich, poor, young or old, you are trapped in such a cage.
Light chasers use torches to dispel the darkness for us in the dark night, warm us and enlighten us. And in the chaotic distance, inexplicable beings are staring at us.
Untouchable Chaos, Darkness, Unnamed.
I think I'll go back and watch this show again.
