Chapter 1: The Familiar Ceiling

Next Chapter

When you open your eyes, the first thing you see is the ceiling above your head.

Li Ming found that this place was so familiar, the place he had dreamed of countless times, his home.

Li Ming, who works outside, has not been home for ten years.

Li Ming has never come back since he went out ten years ago, and he doesn't know what happened to his parents.

Before he went out, he swore that he would not come home until he was a human being.

It's a pity that after ten years of wandering outside, he can only barely ensure his food and clothing.

So he was stubborn and never went home.

Li Ming was just about to get up.

However, the pain from his body told him that it was not a dream, he had really gone home.

This is his room, the same as when he left ten years ago.

"No, how can I know the same as when I left!"

Li Ming frowned and began to reminisce, he found that many things in his mind were clearly remembered by him, which he had watched and learned before.

"When did I have a talent that I will never forget, if I had this talent earlier, I wouldn't have had to go to three universities and I didn't learn anything in school. ”

"And shouldn't I be dead?"

Thinking that he was still coding words before he fell unconscious, the computer he picked up for I didn't know how many hands was about to be scrapped, and he accidentally knocked over the water, and then the water touched the wire that he had just connected with insulating tape for a short time, and then it leaked, and then, there was no then, Li Ming was hit by electricity before he could dodge, and he fell into a coma.

"Could it be that someone rescued me, informed my family, and sent me home......

Li Ming is still speculating here.

However, thinking that he was about to face his parents, Li Ming's heart was apprehensive.

He clearly remembered what he said when he left, and if he didn't mix up his personal appearance, he would never return to this home for the rest of his life.

Li Ming walked out slowly, but the pain on his body made him frown.

He didn't know how long it had been since he had eaten it, was that what happened after the electrocution?

"It's kind of like the one I was beaten up 10 years ago. ”

Li Ming was surprised.

He walked out of the room and happened to see his father who was about to go out to work, but Father Li just looked at him and said, 'Huh!'.

When Li's mother saw her son's appearance, she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Son, are you hungry?"

"It's strange, why haven't my parents changed at all!"

Li Ming thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it, but responded calmly: "Hmm!"

"The way he looks, that's what you're used to, leave him alone, let him get his own food, didn't he say yesterday that he didn't want my things in the future?......"

Father Li seemed to be very angry, but Mother Li immediately grabbed her husband: "It's okay for you to say a few words, you beat your son like this, what else do you want, go to work quickly!

Maybe it was Li's mother's last sentence that played a role, Li's father didn't say anything more, and went to work.

And when Li Ming heard what his mother and father said, there was a loud bang in his head.

He seemed to know why his parents hadn't changed in the slightest, and why their attitude towards him was like this.

Mother Li looked at her son's stunned appearance, hurriedly stepped forward, and said: "Don't be like your father, he is also good for you, although his temper is a little hot sometimes, but it is also because he cares about you, those people outside chew the root of their tongues, your father is also very aggrieved when he works outside, don't be angry with your father......"

What his mother was saying, Li Ming didn't pay attention to it.

He just looked at the calendar hanging on the wall - November 23, 2004.

Li Ming was afraid that he didn't see it clearly, so he stepped forward and flipped through it again.

It was only when he realized what was going on with the pain in his body, what was the matter with his father treating him like this, and why his father and mother were still the same as ten years ago, without the slightest change.

It turned out that a qiē was all he went back ten years ago.

Ten years ago, that is, now, according to the original trajectory, Li Ming would go out to work in a few days.

And that's been a decade.

Never came back.

After a big quarrel with his father, he swore that if he didn't mix up his personal appearance, he would never be in this family for the rest of his life, and he wanted to prove to his father that he was not a waste.

With the thousand yuan given to him by his mother, Li Ming left the house and began to wander outside.

First of all, he acted as a network administrator.

Later, he worked as a salesman, but unfortunately he was not good at words, and he did not sell a single thing that he sold himself.

went to the construction site to work as a migrant worker, but unfortunately in the end, the contractor disliked him for working and fired him as no one else.

I have sold pirated CDs and pornographic books, and set up roadside stalls, but I have always been chased by those chengguan.

I worked as a worker in a cement factory, but I also fell ill in it.

He has collected garbage, worked as a street sweeper, and worked as a security guard.

Li Ming has done almost all the jobs he can do, and he also writes novels part-time at night, but unfortunately the novels he writes are all on the street, even if it is the best one, it can only barely earn him some cigarette money.

Although he has an undergraduate degree certificate, he is an ordinary graduate of three colleges, and in this era when college students are all over the place, there are many college students who have not found a match for their major.

What's more, under the same conditions, why don't people choose those with higher degrees than Li Ming and professional schools stronger than Li Ming.

So Li Ming has never found a good job.

And even if you find one, the salary is not very high.

Li Ming has been wandering outside for ten years, and his savings are only about 100,000.

Not to mention in a big city, even if you go back to your own small county, what you can buy for 100,000 yuan is only enough for the down payment of an ordinary house.

Li Ming can be said to be extremely miserable.

Not to mention that he also sends some money to his family every year during the Chinese New Year, so that his parents can buy some new clothes to wear.

His mother asked him to go home countless times, saying that he would ask his uncle to find him a job in the county, although every time he heard his mother say this, he had the urge to burst into tears, but he was still reluctant to return to his hometown so stubbornly.

Until he accumulated countless problems in his body because of working outside, he was finally sent to the hospital in a coma by his colleagues.

The doctor told him that he had many physical problems, mostly because he often stayed up late, did not get enough sleep, and other problems left over from work, and these problems accumulated to cause his body to eventually collapse.

The doctor advised him to rest and treat him in time, otherwise his life would be in danger if he dragged it on.

But the high cost, Li Ming was scared away.

Eventually, he decided not to heal.

How it was before, how it will be in the future.

It wasn't until he began to get dizzy often, his eyes were black, and he was in a coma several times.

The boss of the small unit where he was working persuaded Li Ming to go back, saying that he kept the post for him, and he could come back to work that day when he was well.

also paid Li Ming in advance, and gave an extra 3,000.

Li Ming only smiled bitterly and returned to his rented place with an extra salary of 3,000 yuan.

He knew that no one would give him a job when he went out to find a job in his current state.

He can only stay here, surf the Internet every day, read novels, and write novels.

Li Ming's rental house is the kind where one room is divided into several rooms by the landlord with wooden boards.

The environment inside is very poor, but it is cheaper, only 200 yuan a month, and it is paid every six months.

At this time, Li Ming also knew that his body might not be able to die, so in addition to leaving himself 5,000 yuan to live on, he sent all his savings to his mother.

And one night, Li Ming poured water and took medicine, put the water on the computer desk, and was about to wait for the boiling water to cool down and take some cold medicine, he accidentally knocked over the water, and then he was electrocuted in a panic, returning to ten years ago.
