At this time, there was no one on the rural road, and Pu Tongren also felt a little scared, for fear that something strange would come out, but when it was dark and there was no lighting, the bicycle could not be repaired.

The helpless Pu Tongren could only push the bicycle all the way, and some cold moonlight sprinkled on Pu Tongren's body, making him feel a special feeling.

Pu Tongren, who was pushing the car, was nothing at first, but soon felt that something was getting more and more wrong, as if something was following him, Pu Tongren subconsciously looked behind him and found that something was wrapped around his car, Pu Tongren lowered his head and got rid of the things that were wrapped around the car.

But after Pu Tongren looked up, he suddenly felt that there was a figure behind him, and that person seemed to have been following him, Pu Tongren didn't dare to look back, afraid that he would not be able to bear it after seeing it.

Pu Tongren pretended not to know at first, still pushing the car slowly, and then began to run wildly, but the figure behind him always seemed to be able to keep up with him, watching Pu Tongren's every move from behind, and Pu Tongren ran as fast as the other party ran.

Pu Tongren was exhausted, and he mustered up the courage to look behind him, and finally saw the man's face behind him.

It was an old-looking face, like the bark of a tree peeled off in winter. What made Pu Tongren a little frightened was that the old man opened his mouth, showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said to Pu Tongren: "Little brother, it's getting dark, I'm lost in the old man, can you take me home?"

Who would want to bring a strange bad old man home, if it is a beautiful woman, you can also consider it.

Pu Tongren wanted to refuse him, but before he could say anything, the mysterious old man jumped into Pu Tongren's bicycle and sat firmly in the back seat.

"Hurry up, if you'll take me home and get something to eat, I'll have something good for you, old man." The old man said mysteriously to Pu Tongren.

Pu Tongren wanted to tell him that the chain of the car had fallen off, and he couldn't ride it at all, and besides, he couldn't ride people. But Pu Tongren still tried to pedal the bicycle by magic, but he didn't expect to really pedal, which is simply a miracle.

Pu Tongren only thought that a miracle had happened, and he didn't care to think about how the broken chain of the bicycle was installed by himself, and why he learned to ride people in an instant.

Pu Tongren pedaled his bicycle hard and rode home, not because of the warmth of his family, but because it was the only place he could live in this world, except for school.

"That Zhou Darong usually doesn't have a good relationship with you, why did you save him?" the mysterious old man suddenly said to Pu Tongren.

Pu Tongren didn't expect him to know about saving Zhou Darong, and he quickly replied: "I didn't think much about it at the time, I just didn't want what Aunt Cuihua said to become a reality, and I wanted to prove her wrong." ”

What kind of parents will have what kind of children, and the future of children is always just a copy of the fate of their parents.

Pu Tongren doesn't like this, why can't people's fate be in their own hands, but let God arrange it, and besides, they still have such an unbearable fate arranged for themselves.

"Your idea is good, and I hope you can actually do it. The arrangement of fate cannot be resisted, sometimes you think that you have changed your fate, but in fact it is still the arrangement of fate, as if you can carry me today, why not your fate. The mysterious old man said to Fang Tianxing.

After crossing the familiar road, Pu Tongren finally returned home, and when he saw that the lights in the house were not on, he knew that his mother had not returned.

Pu Tongren opened the door, and the old man behind him came in with him. The family naturally taught Pu Tongren not to bring strangers home, but Pu Tongren felt that his family was poor and had nothing, and he was simply poor, and there was nothing to steal for others.

Putting down the schoolbag, Pu Tongren walked directly to the kitchen, today I tossed for a long time, and it took a lot of effort, I still want to find something to eat first, and then fill my stomach.

Pu Tongren rummaged through the kitchen and couldn't find anything to eat, when the mysterious old man suddenly said to Pu Tongren: "Aren't there two packets of instant noodles here?"

Pu Tongren turned his head to look and found two packets of instant noodles from nowhere on the table. Unlike the dislike of junk food such as instant noodles in the city, Pu Tongren, who is from a poor family, is a rare delicacy, and he prefers the taste of instant noodles to those wild vegetables and grains.

But there shouldn't be instant noodles at home, and Pu Tongren knows this very well, and his mother, who is financially strapped for nothing, can't have spare money to buy this back.

Although Pu Tongren had doubts in his heart, he still picked up the two packets of instant noodles.

The children of the poor are in charge of the family at an early age, but no one cares whether it is the child's luck or misfortune. Pu Tongren skillfully turned on the gas stove, poured water first, then put the packet of instant noodles in it, covered the pot to reduce the heat, and then waited for the instant noodles to cook.

The mysterious old man on the side was also waiting for Pu Tongren to cook instant noodles with an expectant face, and soon a fragrance came out, Pu Tongren put the noodles out and asked the mysterious old man, "Do you want to eat it too?"

The old man made a drooling appearance and said, "Of course I have to eat it." ”

Pu Tongren took two bowls, put the noodles into the bowls, and smelled the fragrant fragrance, Pu Tongren couldn't help but take the chopsticks to fight hard against the instant noodles in his bowl. The old man was not polite, and picked up the bowl and watched Pu Tongren gobble up, which made him have a rare appetite, but he stopped after tasting a few bites.

Seeing that Pu Tongren had finished eating his bowl and was staring at himself, he said to Pu Tongren: "I won't eat it, I'll give you the rest." ”

Pu Tongren said thank you, then took the old man's bowl, swallowed all the leftovers into his stomach, and finished eating the instant noodles, Pu Tongren wiped his mouth with his hand, and said to the mysterious old man: "Old fairy, thank you for the instant noodles you gave me, and also helped me repair the bicycle, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely double the return of you." ”

The mysterious old man smiled and said to Pu Tongren: "How do you know that I put the instant noodles, maybe it was left by your parents, and why do you conclude that I am an old immortal." ”

Pu Tongren said seriously: "Mom works outside all day to make money, and Dad is in prison, if it's not you, who will give me instant noodles." The chain of the bike was broken, but when I rode it, it suddenly got better, and I didn't feel the weight gain at all when I rode you. In addition, there were no two packs of instant noodles at home, but you have them after you came, you are not an old fairy, probably an old devil. ”

Hearing Pu Tongren's words, the old man laughed and did not refute it, as if he acquiesced to Pu Tongren's guess.

Seeing that the mysterious old man did not deny it, Pu Tongren immediately knelt down and begged: "Old fairy, can you change my fate for me and turn back time, my father is back from prison, my grandmother's broken leg is restored as before, and my mother no longer has to work overtime every day to support this family, I just want to get the life of an ordinary person." Old fairy, can you grant my wish?"

"Didn't you say that you want to control your own destiny? Why do you want me to arrange the fate of an ordinary person for you now? What is the difference between that and the fate that fate has arranged for you. The mysterious old man asked rhetorically to Pu Tongren.

"But no matter how much strength I have, no matter how hard I try, there is nothing I can do about what has happened. Even if I can connect my grandmother's broken leg, when it rains on a cloudy day, the pain will be unbearable, like a knife scraping. Even if my father can come back after the end of his sentence, the fact that he was once a prisoner in labor camp will not change, and he will inevitably face cold eyes and ridicule from others after he is released from prison. Even if my mother doesn't have to work overtime every day, the pain she has experienced will not be erased so easily. Pu Tongren said gloomily.

The mysterious old man lowered his body and touched Pu Tongren's head, put a jade pendant in his hand, and said to him: "Your child's character is not bad, this jade pendant is given to you, you have to remember that although the encounter in life is the arrangement of fate, but the choice you make in the face of fate is your own, what kind of choice you make, what kind of person you will become." There are some things in this world that you can't choose, but you can choose what kind of person you want to be, and the road is under your feet. ”
