白色循环

”又来了一个。“丛林中传来说话的声音。几个赤身裸体的男人出现在我面前，那个古怪的女人站在他们身后。

”是你们！“看到那个女人，我顿时明白了他们究竟是谁，”你们为什么要带着她逃跑？“

”因为我们根本没办法阻止。“其中一个男人说，”你也是研究所的？“

我点点头。

”还有人逃出来吗？“他问。

”我不知道。“我说。

他神色有些黯然：”他们读了我的资料吗？“

”白化了。“我没好气地说，”再说也来不及了。“

他们沉默了一会儿，另一个男人道：”你还想知道真相吗？“

我点点头，想起那叠厚厚的资料，有些厌倦地道：”长活短说。“

他们又沉默了一阵，先前说话的那个男人道：”这女人的尖叫声确实是上古的语言——就像我们猜测的那样，她是史前人类。在我们的文明存在之前，曾经有过一个文明，他们的发达程度大致跟我们不相上下，不会更好，也不会更坏。

“他们的遭遇基本和我们一样，也是在无人区遇到一些白化的尸体，尸体的特征和他们那一期文明的人种特征有很大区别，但又存在基因上的联系。他们偶然捕获了一个白化的男人，后来发生的事情基本和我们一样。

”少数人逃过了这场城市劫难，遁入丛林之中。那个白化的男人告诉他们，在他们存在之前，还存在着无数段文明。每段文明发展到一定程度，就会出现白化现象——实际上，白化现象并不是凭空出现的，谁也说不清它最初是因为什么产生的，但是自从文明产生以来，它似乎是由惟一一个活着的白化幸存者传染给城市，确切地说是传染给人类的文明世界的。

“这种白化病症会潜伏在上一期文明幸存下来的人类体内，它只对人类文明的成功有效。所以每一段文明的幸存者，都躲藏在最古老、从未有人涉足的地区来避免和人类文明接触，这才逃过劫难。当一段文明被消灭，世界失去了人类的侵扰，自然的力量逐渐恢复，新的人类在陆地上出现，新的文明崛起。一段文明发展到一定阶段，必然会开始入侵自然的领地，自然的领地不断缩小，前期文明的遗留者们东躲西藏，直至最后再也没有什么地方不曾被人类涉足……这是一个可怕的循环，周而复始，从来没有任何一段文明能够逃过这样的命运。

”所有遗留下来的人，最终都会白化，但并不会在阳光下融化。他们都知道，当他们重新见到人类文明痕迹的那天，就表示又一次末日的到来。所以，尽管白化病症给了他们极端长寿的生命，但也让他们变得非常惊恐。他们就像野兽一样生活，不敢在生活中带入一点儿文明的痕迹，甚至连火和简单的遮羞兽皮也不敢使用。长期与文明隔绝的日子，让他们对文明的痕迹畏如蛇蝎。所以当他们再次见到现阶段文明时期的人类时，大部分人都受不了这种惊吓而死去，只有少数坚强的人活了下来，而这是最可怕的——因为尸体并不能传播这种病症，只有活着的白化症患者，才能将这种病症传递给人类的文明创造物。“

”这么说……是人类在自取灭亡？“我苦笑着问。

他们点点头。

”那么……其他的无人区里，还存在着前面很多个阶段的遗民？“我又问。

”也许……“那男人说，”因为每段文明遇见他们其中的一个都会灭亡，而在这之后的幸存者们，都不会再保持文明的习惯，也就不会再去询问和探查，所以谁也不知道世界上究竟还存活着哪些阶段的文明遗民。但可以肯定的是数目不会太多——因为无人区越来越少了。“

”接下来会发生什么？“我问。

”白色的蔓延不可遏制，人类的文明因此毁灭。幸存的无知的人会继续在自然界开创文明。这样的人走到哪里，就会让白色蔓延到哪里，直到他们死亡。“他说，”只有像我们这样知道真相的人，才能存活到下一个文明的出现——你准备怎么办？“

”什么怎么办？“我一时没明白。

”你是从此像野兽一样活着，还是跟我们一起，逃到最远的无人区？“他问。

他们都在看着我。

我回头看看那白色的汪洋。

我有选择的权利吗？

像野兽一样，忍受黑暗、寒冷、恐惧、孤独，在亿万年的无人地带……想到这个，我禁不住打了个寒颤。

也许死了会更好。

也许第一代白化症出现的时候，就该选择死亡。要不就完全退化成真正的野兽，那样或许才是真正的救赎之道。

”我留下。“我说着，跃入白色粘稠的液体，朝着远方影影绰绰出现的人影游去。

我感觉到身后那些遗憾而不解的目光。

每个人都有自己的选择，一个文明也有一个文明的途径，无论未来如何，我们都将沿着自己的道路前进。

Introduce:The woman of the shriek, white villa transmits feminine scream in darkness, the cry appears very barpque, hear a kind of any screams that pass before unlike me, asing if is terrified not just, acedia, recourse wait common mood a moment, included more complex implication however. I await this cry to stop, however, waited for one bell fully, scream still is in continuously, a bit was not interrupted, sound discretion rises and fall, mild and indirect 100 change. I begin to suspect gradually, this is not the mankind call out, however some kind of my place unfamiliar of the beast bleat, but even if is a beast, so long not ground of take a breath gives out a cry, also be the thing that had not heard of. After 5 minutes, the cry still lasts, intermediate syllable alternates, without occurrence reduplicative accent. An ineffable fear comes over to me. The sound that what thing gives out is this? Is it possible that be some kind of machine bleat? This thought just was formed was denied by me, the machine gives out the sound that does not have the rule so impossibly. Be in thick in stiff darkness, all around a hush, also do not have even rumour, dark woods stands tall and upright in road both sides, looking at the past is to appear deep all the more wide forest. Drove alone at 2 o'clock in before dawn the natural park that crosses this city suburban district, itself makes my heart medium perturbed, hear such voice suddenly now, I not by accelerated speed, close car window close, open a radio at the same time. The radio gives out grating noise, I am shut at once. This kind of circumstance had never appeared previously. I am more flurried, draw out skill machine to want to make a telephone call to familiar person, signal of on the mobile phone one case also is done not have. The car carries broadcasting station also is tremendous noise. I leave forth with faster speed only. When through hill path corner is in, can see a room that stands tall and upright on the summit, within is bright lamplight. Although be in the summit, but because hill is not tall, not far from me, still can look so that understand the situation inside house. Below lamplight, the face of a woman from the window after protecting a window, show, her both hands is catching the baluster that protects a window, forward my directional ask for a favor screams. Scream is continuous give out from her mouth. It is she is crying so. I look not clear her expression, but she extends both hands agog the about that come from inside protecting a window, still look the hair in my heart is closely. Knew interjectional origin, sound appears so not weird. Is perhaps this woman mental person? I so guessing. However her located position, let me overthrow this house that guesses she is in —— again, be this natural park go vacationing villatic, hire of a day is about thousands of money, who is satiate maintain does a mind unusual woman put here? And apparent, she is to stay alone
