Chapter 1: The Talking Old Turtle

Next Chapter

"It's really declining, I couldn't apply, and I spent a thousand yuan in vain!" As soon as Ding Song entered his hut, he threw the half-dead old turtle in the corner of the house.

This turtle is twenty or thirty pounds deep, the size of a basin, and I don't know why, today Ding Song was on the road, and when he saw that someone was going to kill this turtle, he couldn't bear it for a while, and took out a thousand yuan to buy this old turtle.

"You're so light, you're falling on my old man!"

Just when Ding Song was sulking in his heart and was about to lie on the bed to rest for a while, an old voice came from the corner of the wall.

"Who?" Ding Song couldn't help but be surprised.

Since graduating in July, he moved out of the school's dormitory and rented this small room outside, which is not large, only more than ten square meters, and he only lives alone, how can anyone talk?

The hairs on Ding Song's head stood on end.

"Who else could it be, you threw me on the ground, and my old man was in pain, and you still asked me who I was!" There was a hint of displeasure in the old voice.

Ding Song carefully got up from the bed, looked at the corner of the room, and found that it was the old turtle who spoke, struggling there with his feet facing the sky.

"Look at it, don't turn me over yet!" The sound came from the old turtle's mouth, and Ding Song heard it clearly.

Don't think that it's a good thing to have a supernatural thing, it's a legend written in a novel, and it's not like that when you really get to it.

Ding Song heard the old turtle speak for the first time, his legs couldn't move a little at that time, and his mind was blank when this extraordinary event happened to him, and he didn't know how to deal with it at all, so he could only stumble and point at the old turtle and say:

"Yes, you're talking?"

"Who else is in this house besides my old man?" The old turtle said angrily.

Ding Song's white hair on his head was sweating, and he said that his life was too weak, how could he spend money to buy a monster back?

"What are you doing there? Don't turn me over, it's nice for you to lie on your back like this! The old turtle said angrily.

After a few breaths, Ding Song adapted to the current situation a little, and no longer felt surprised, and said in his heart that I was not lying on my back to the sky one day, do you think that like you, it feels uncomfortable to lie on a turtle shell?

But he didn't say this, but stepped forward, picked up the old turtle, and laid it squarely on the table.

So that he could sit on the bed and have a close conversation with the old turtle.

"You're a youkai? How can you speak human words? Ding Song said to the old turtle.

"What kind of monster, I'm a spirit turtle, understand, spirit turtle, spirit fairy gods, monsters are the lowest level, but I am the highest level of gods." The old turtle seemed to be very unhappy with Ding Song calling him a monster.

Ding Song gradually accepted the old turtle's words, and no longer panicked in his heart, and retorted to the old turtle: "What about the level, isn't it almost killed?" If I hadn't rescued you, you'd have been chopped into seven or eight pieces by now. ”

"You stinky boy, I'm a autopsy! Understand, autopsy! It's that when I cultivated to a certain level, I was slashed, and then I became a god in the sky, and as a result, you saved me without eyesight, and I had to suffer from this earthly world! ”

Ding Song was angry when he heard this, and said to the old turtle: "Are you still blowing with me?" I have a knife here now, I'll help you autopsy, I'll let you go to heaven to be a god! ”

As he spoke, Ding Song directly picked up the kitchen knife and pointed it at the back of the turtle shell.

With the sound of "dang", the old turtle hurriedly retracted the ** into the turtle shell.

Not only the head, but also all four legs were retracted.

At this moment, I heard the voice of a three-eight woman outside: "The residents on the first floor are listening, the tenth is the day to pay the rent, and the money is ready happily, and there will be ten more days, no rent is paid, don't blame the old lady for being polite!" ”

Ding Song felt even more angry when he heard this, as soon as their low-rent house here was handed over in January, they rushed if they had no money, and when they thought of this, Ding Song was in no mood to take care of this old turtle anymore, and lay down on the bed again.

"Hey, what's wrong? As for it, I'm just bragging, so I'm not so angry! ”

Seeing Ding Song lying on the bed and ignoring him, the old turtle stuck his head out again and said to Ding Song.

Ding Song sat up openly, pointed at the old turtle and said loudly, "I need to be angry with you? You know no, in order to save you, I paid all this month's rent, I haven't worked until now, and if this continues, I will have to sleep on the street in ten days, I am not like you, I have a turtle shell, I can live as a house wherever I go, and I can be a home! ”

Ding Song said what he was most worried about.

Now that I've graduated, I can't ask my family for money anymore.

Besides, his family is not rich, his father and mother are ordinary workers, although he has not been laid off, but that little dead salary is not enough for him to go to college, and he has borrowed a lot from outside.

He went to school in Yangcheng, majoring in history, and has always wanted to graduate from college and get a good job, so that his parents can save some worry and earn some money to supplement the family.

also said that let his father and mother live a good life, and now he wants to ask the family for money, Ding Song really has no face to do this.

It's really not good, I have to go to the construction site tomorrow to move bricks, so I can get through this difficulty first.

"It turns out that money is tight! It's not easy to pay so much money to save me, if my old man doesn't return this favor, I'm sorry for you. ”

"What can you do? Do you want me to chop you into seven or eight pieces and then take them out and sell meat? ”

"How can it be done, you can't hit the catastrophe yourself after escaping a catastrophe, right? Let me do the math for you, and see where your fortune is. The old turtle shook his head and said.

"Blow, you just keep blowing, you won't do anything else except bragging." Ding Song said angrily.

"What bragging? I'm a spirit turtle, and I can count whatever I want! ”

Ding Song didn't believe it at all, and said to him while lying on the bed: "I won't mention the fact that you were almost stabbed, if you can figure out when and where I can find a job, I will believe you." ”

Now for Ding Song, work is far more important than why the old turtle should be stabbed, after all, he has to eat.

"It's not easy, the reason why you can't find a job is because you haven't found the right place. Pay attention to the right time, place and people, how can you get things done if you can't find a place? Listen to me, as long as you walk south from here tomorrow, five miles away, I guarantee that you will find a satisfactory job. ”

Five miles to the south?

Ding Song thought for a while, five miles south from him, there is a place called Xiangyang Street, he has walked a few times, I haven't heard of such a thing as recruiting employees, it seems that this turtle is bragging again.

Anyway, it is better to have someone in the house who can talk than to live alone, Ding Song relaxed his mood and said to the old turtle: "Okay, I will go south from here early tomorrow morning, if I don't find a job, I will dissect your body and make a pot of turtle soup to drink." ”

"That's not going to work!" The old turtle cried loudly.

"What, scared? Didn't you say that you were accurate, but when you said that you would be made into turtle soup, it would scare you. Ding Song thought it was also interesting to have this talking pet.

"I'm not afraid, the spirit turtle divides his fate, and he has no last resort, but you can't go early in the morning, the time is not right, you can only do it when you get there, it's not early or late."

Unitary time? Ding Song also knows a little about the sexagenary branches, and the unitary time should be between five and seven o'clock in the afternoon.

In the realm of Yangcheng, 9 to 5 in the morning and 5 in the afternoon, how can anyone recruit? This old turtle is deceiving people again.

didn't say anything at the moment, Ding Song said to the old turtle with a smile: "I don't know what the content of this job is?" Is it physical or mental? ”

"Of course it's an easy job, it's too tiring to do it with your small body. Rest assured, it's guaranteed to be easy and comfortable, and it's a lot of money. The old turtle said confidently.

Ding Song patted the turtle shell and said to it: "Go to bed early, I also have to rest, I have to apply for a job tomorrow, I don't have time to chat with you." ”

As he spoke, Ding Song rolled over and got on the bed.

After running for a day, he was really tired, so Ding Song fell asleep when he got to bed.

Early the next morning, Ding Song got up, searched the local recruitment information with his mobile phone, and saw that there were three who were barely in line with his major.

He didn't pay attention to what the old turtle said about what good jobs were on Xiangyang Street five miles to the south, who would recruit employees after work?

The reason why I chatted with the old turtle for a while was just to have fun.

Two in the morning, one in the afternoon, and at three o'clock, Ding Song returned to his rental house.

It's too hard to find a job, a person who studies history is really useless in Yangcheng, even if he learns graphic design, he can make a living, but he learns the wrong major, and he really doesn't have a chance if he doesn't change careers.

Ding Song also tried to apply for other majors, but in the realm of Yangcheng, he is the counterpart of the major, and he can't find a job, and there are a bunch of new graduates, and he is even weaker and less competitive when he mixes into other majors.

Lying in the rental house, Ding Song couldn't help but sigh.

"What are you sighing, if you want to succeed, the time, the place, the people, the three are indispensable, you always go to the place where you can't find a job to find a job, this is not a fate of the wood to ask for fish!" The old turtle didn't move for a whole day, and was still lying on that table.

Ding Song was really tossed and couldn't help it, thinking about the three places where he applied today, he didn't care about going to the south to take a look at it at night, so he thought it was digested after dinner.

Looking at the time, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, Ding Song went outside to eat a bowl of noodles, and then walked south.

Yangcheng more than five o'clock, it is the time to get off work, cars come and go, there are a lot of people, five miles to the south, the distance is not far, the time is not urgent, do not need to take the car, slowly walk forward.

On the road, Ding Songdong looked west, and then he slipped away, and he was idle in the middle to watch others play a game of chess, and then slowly walked to Xiangyang Street.

There are still many people on Xiangyang Street, and many shops have begun to close their doors.

Ding Song was not surprised by this, as long as it was a decent company, it would start to close down at this time.

"If you believe the old turtle's words, then you have a low IQ!" Ding Song muttered to himself in his heart as he walked forward.

As soon as I walked to the middle of Xiangyang Street, a young woman suddenly walked out of the building next to her, holding a large red paper in one hand and paste in the other, and was about to paste it on the wall.

Ding Song looked at the paper at an oblique angle, and there were four big words on the red paper: Recruitment clerk!
