Chapter I: Prologue
In the summer of 2007, the streets of China's S City were still crowded with people as usual.
The sun hanging high overhead could not stop people's footsteps, and there were busy crowds everywhere. People don't have time to look at the surrounding scenery, maybe the pressure of life has made them lose their vitality and gradually become numb, maybe it is the power of the sun that makes them hurry by, or maybe the familiar environment on the street makes them not have the slightest novelty and can't afford to watch.
Under the scorching sun, a young man walked alone on the crowded street, feeling so out of place in the crowd.
This young man's name is Liang Dong, he is a 23-year-old college student who just graduated this year, and he only appears here because he wants to find a suitable job here.
For a graduate like him who graduated from a third-rate school, finding a job is undoubtedly a very painful thing, there is no available relationship in the family, his ancestors have lived in the countryside for generations, and the family does not have much savings for him to start a business, maybe he should be like everyone else, find a decent job, marry a daughter-in-law who can see it, have a child, and maybe have to fight for a house for ten or twenty years until the child grows up again.
It's a pity that it's not easy to find a job that is satisfying, a good job can't be his turn, and a bad job he doesn't want to do, so this matter has dragged on until now.
"Hey, it's been more than a month since I graduated, and I still haven't settled on my job. "I walked on the street in a daze, looking at the busy crowd but feeling that I was doing nothing.
Thinking that it had been almost two months since he graduated but he hadn't found a job, he couldn't bear to be depressed and sighed helplessly, Liang Dong recalled what happened during this time.
Since graduating, he has been worried about work, and it is not possible to find it at home, so these days he has run dozens of companies, but unfortunately he has spent a lot of money, but he has not gained much, so he came here to try his luck, and it has been almost three days since he came to this city.
Liang Dong is a rural person, he has been accustomed to the hard work of farmers since he was a child, seeing them facing the loess with their backs to the sky, working hard for a year but not much benefit, just to ensure that he has enough to eat, he doesn't want to live like this for a lifetime, although Liang Dong does not have much ideals and goals, but he also does not want to do nothing all his life.
But the ideal is full, the reality is cruel, how can he know the hardships of the world as a young man who has not been deeply involved, this period of experience made him understand the helplessness of reality, and also made him mature quickly, people still have to walk down-to-earth. Thinking of what happened to him, Liang Dong couldn't help but sigh again.
Liang Dong is an authentic farmer's child, 180 tall, he often does farm work, his figure is still good, although he is not particularly strong, but his body proportions are very coordinated, he is not handsome, everything about him is ordinary, and he belongs to the kind that cannot be found in the pile.
Slowly walked back to his rental house of only a dozen square meters, there was only a bed and some daily necessities, Liang Dong sat on the small bed and was stunned, all kinds of thoughts flashed in his mind, and Liang Dong put his things in a mess in the small rental house.
At this time, the mobile phone rang, and Liang Dong came back to his senses, but what made him strange was that who would be looking for him at this time?
I found out the dilapidated copycat machine that had been used for several years from my pocket, although it was broken, but it could still be used, he didn't change it, in fact, the most important thing was that he was shy.
looked at the mobile phone, it showed that it was a call from a company he went to apply for, Liang Dong suddenly had a clear mind, his heart beat heavily, he breathed a long sigh of relief to stabilize his mood, and Liang Dong pressed the answer button.
"Hello, is there anything wrong?" Liang Dong asked in the calmest voice as much as he could, it's been almost two months, is there finally news coming after such a long period of effort?
"Hello, is it Mr. Liang Dong?" A sweet voice came from the other side, and at this time Liang Dong was very strange that he was still in the mood to think that it must be a pure little beauty.
"Mr. don't dare to be, I'm Liang Dong, has my resume passed?" Liang Dong asked a little nervously, his palms were a little sweaty, after all, this is a matter related to his future, and his efforts these days are here.
"Yes Mr. Liang, your conditions meet the requirements of our company, if it is convenient for you, please come to our company tomorrow before 2 pm and 5 pm to attend the interview, if you pass you can become an employee of our company." Liang Dong was not disappointed, and the sweet voice gave an affirmative answer.
"Thank you so much, I'll be here tomorrow. ”
Liang Dong was a little excited, hung up the phone and threw the phone away and laughed twice, and his mood swept away the previous haze, his efforts in the past few days have finally worked, tomorrow will be his first step towards success, Liang Dong seems to see a bright future waiting for him, when I have money, I want... I'm also going to... Just when Liang Dong still had a smile on his face and didn't know what he was thinking...
A strange sound interrupted Liang Dong's fantasy, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, Liang Dong's face flushed, and he breathed a sigh of relief after looking left and right to find that there was no one.
took out the cottage machine to see the time, it was already more than two o'clock, and then he remembered that after eating in the morning, he went out to look for a job in the morning, and he had not come to eat lunch in a hurry until now, and now his stomach is about to rebel.
I looked at the messy hut and scratched my head, there was nothing to eat in this small house, and I looked for it next to each other, and found two packs of instant noodles, I had to make do with it, and yelled in my heart that when I had money, I would eat fritters and drink soy milk every day, and I would pour one bowl of soy milk if I wanted two bowls of soy milk.
He boiled some hot water with the only electrical appliance in the house except for the electric light, "Hot Fast", soaked in instant noodles, and when he finished eating, it was almost three o'clock.
It is said that there is food in the stomach and there is no panic in his heart, and Liang Dong's excited mood has calmed down a lot after eating.
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't have much to do, so he cleaned up the messy room and just practiced what he was going to say tomorrow, he took tomorrow's interview very seriously.
After thinking carefully about the things to pay attention to in tomorrow's interview, and making sure that nothing was missing, Liang Dong sat on the bed and was stunned, which is also his favorite thing to do when he is fine.
When the time came to night, ordinary people were going to sleep, and Liang Dong was also lying on the small bed in the hut, but he was not sleeping, but doing something strange.
He took a few deep breaths, calmed his mind slowly, tried his best to be as waveless as possible, and then began his daily homework.
It can be seen that he has done all this very skillfully, and he must have done it many times.
He never told anyone, and no one knew, not even his roommates who lived in the same dormitory with him never found out, in fact, from one day in his first year of college, Liang Dong practiced a nameless exercise every night.
Speaking of this ignorant exercise, there is also a history, like all adolescent teenagers who like fantasy, while he reads those fantasy novels, he is also deeply attracted by the characters who have the ability to fly to the sky, and can't help but fantasize that he has those powerful abilities in the novels.
It was in this context that when Liang Dong once bought a novel at a roadside bookstall and accidentally found a book that he suspected of being a secret book of martial arts, he was like a treasure, and the ghost sent him to take out the only twenty oceans and buy them, and began to cultivate, when he mentioned two days of steamed buns, the twenty oceans were his living expenses for two days, and he didn't tell anyone about it.
The book Liang Dong bought should have been some years old, the pages have been yellowed, and the corners are also seriously worn, but fortunately, the content inside is still very complete, otherwise it is still a question whether he dares to practice.
At this point, there is another problem that the book is written in ancient Chinese, which is the main reason why Liang Dong believes in it. It's so strange to say that no one buys the same content in a bookstore, but if you get it from a beggar after a lot of hard work, it will be regarded as a peerless miracle.
Fortunately, the book is not thick, and there are not many words, during that period of time, Liang Dong was looking for information every day, and it didn't take long for Liang Dong to fully understand the content of the book. What makes Liang Dong excited is that what is recorded in this book is really a kind of exercise, according to the book, practicing this kind of exercise can develop people's potential and have some magical abilities, but what specific abilities will be made unclear, so Liang Dong has nothing to do but watch dryly.
Of course, nothing special happened to Liang Dong after he cultivated, but whenever he finished his cultivation, he could feel refreshed and in good spirits the next day, plus this thing could be practiced before going to bed, it was very simple, and he persevered, Liang Dong didn't expect that he could have this perseverance.
In fact, the simplicity of the practice method is the main reason why he can persevere, if the whole thing is like those people in the movie, the top of his head is smoking, and the light is mixed up, then I am afraid he will be treated as a mental illness, even if he is not regarded as a mental illness, he will be arrested and studied as a guinea pig.
After several years of persistent cultivation, although he didn't have the ability to fly into the sky and spit out clouds and mist, which made him a little regretful, he could feel that his spirit was getting better and better.
According to his thoughts, this exercise should be to practice spiritual power, although he is not sure whether the spiritual power really exists, but his spirit has become better This is real, lying on the bed, Liang Dong began to practice this repeated thousands of times, but he didn't know that some magical things were about to happen, and his fate would be completely changed.
