Chapter 1: Life to Death

Next Chapter

The light began to dim, and it was not early, and Xue Ling rode an electric car around the city, rushing to deliver takeaways to customers. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He only left his hometown to live in the city half a year ago, and he is not very familiar with some parts of the city, so he always makes a few more rounds on unnecessary roads, and slightly delays the delivery time.

At the intersection ahead, there is a student in a school uniform waiting there.

"Why is it so slow?" The student complained.

Xue Ling took out the takeaway from the trunk and handed it to him, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry." ”

Seeing that the student went back without saying anything, Xue Ling breathed a sigh of relief, successfully completed the task, and was finally able to go back.

Xue Ling lives in a bookstore, the owner of the bookstore is very nice, and provides food and accommodation for free, while Xue Ling only needs to help organize the books at night and help move the books when new books come to the bookstore, which is very good for Xue Ling.

It's a small bookstore, but it's full of books, so it's quite famous in the neighborhood and there are a lot of people who patronize it.

After Xue Ling parked the car, he pushed open the glass door and walked into the store.

"Is the job done?" Said the long-haired girl standing next to the cash register.

This is the boss's daughter, called Kong Hua, this shop is taken care of by a family of three, everything is handled in an orderly manner, but it will be more troublesome to sort out the books, and the manpower is a little insufficient, so Xue Ling needs help.

"Hmm." Xue Ling changed into work clothes, walked to the bookshelf to sort out the books, mended the books that were bought, and straightened out the messy books, which was a simple and easy job.

The proprietress was responsible for wiping the bookshelves and books, while the boss was sorting out the books like Xue Ling.

Suddenly, a car pulled up outside the door and brought in new books ordered by the bookstore.

The bookstore is stocked at this time of the week, so it's going to be a little busier today.

Xue Ling and his boss moved the large box of books to the stack.

Open the box and register the book.

“...... Five copies, fifteen copies of "Zuo Ji"..."Xue Ling is responsible for hand-picking, and the boss is responsible for registration.

After putting all the books on the shelves in the store, Xue Ling remembered that he had promised his sister to give her a gift.

Xue Ling's younger sister, Xue Ziqing, studied at a key high school in the city, and Xue Ling came to work here, on the one hand, to take care of her sister, and on the other hand, to earn money for her sister's schooling.

The family lived in a remote village, and life was not bad, but five years ago, after the accident with their mother, their father drank all day long.

The family's savings are almost exhausted, and Xue Ling, who is a year older than her sister, gave up her studies and came out to work to make money, so that her sister, who has excellent grades, can continue to go to school.

Last year, her sister was successfully admitted to a well-known key high school, and Xue Ling was not worried about letting her sister come alone, so she gave up her original job and followed her to live in the city.

Yesterday I received this month's salary, and this new book "Zuo Ji" should be good, and there are many people who have come to the bookstore to book before.

Xue Ling took a copy from the bookshelf and walked to the cashier to pay.

"Buying books again?" Kong Hua took the book.

"yes." Xue Ling took out his wallet.

"You don't read, you always buy books for your sister, you might as well go out and buy a few more clothes to dress up." Kong Hua pointed to Xue Ling's clothes and said.

Xue Ling has always changed those three sets of clothes in turn, not to mention Kong Hua, and my sister feels tired of seeing it.

But Xue Ling didn't have the heart to care about this, and gave the money to Kong Hua, "I'm too lazy to buy it." ”

"Take the discount card and don't want to get a discount?" Kong Hua stretched out his hand to Xue Ling.

"yes, I almost forgot." Xue Ling hurriedly took out the card.

The bookstore has a discount on the purchase of books for regular customers.

"Give." Kong Hua packed the book in a bag and gave it to Xue Ling.

Xue Ling took the bag, the work in the store was almost over, and he couldn't wait to send the books to school to his sister.

Xue Ling changed out of his work clothes, picked up the bag and walked out.

"Do you have to send the book over now?" Kong Hua walked over and blocked Xue Ling with some doubts in his eyes.

Faced with Kong Hua's abnormal behavior, Xue Ling felt very strange.

"It's okay now anyway, and being idle is also idle." Xue Ling slowly walked around.

"It's okay to send it tomorrow......... The weather forecast says there will be rain in the evening...."Kong Hua seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't.

"That's it, it's okay, the weather outside is still very good, and I'll be back soon." Xue Ling looked outside, there was no sign of rain, and he was relieved, after all, the weather forecast may not be accurate.

"Forget it...."Kong Hua's gaze moved away from Xue Ling, and she didn't say anything more, but from the expression on her face, it could be seen that she seemed to be sighing for something.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon." Xue Ling didn't pay much attention to these, and when he thought of his sister being so happy when she got the book, Xue Ling couldn't help but get excited, and just wanted to send the book over quickly.

Although it is in the same city, it takes about half an hour to get to my sister's school by bus.

Before Xue Ling could reach the bus stop, it was raining heavily.

"Alas, it's really raining, I knew I would have brought an umbrella out." Xue Ling ran to shelter from the rain under the awning of a cake shop.

Looking at the rain that was still falling with the strong wind, Xue Ling tied the knot of the bag containing the book more tightly and put it in his arms to avoid getting wet in the rain.

There were only a few pedestrians left on the street, and Xue Ling sighed.

The rain and dim light blurred vision, but in front of me, a child could be seen on the road, struggling to clutch an umbrella in the wind.

Suddenly, a strong wind mixed with rain blew on the weak child.

The car in the distance didn't seem to notice him, didn't slow down at all, and rushed straight over.

Xue Ling couldn't care about anything, and rushed over in the heavy rain to pick up the child and run back.

Originally, everything seemed to be going smoothly, but the book in Xue Ling's arms fell.

Xue Ling subconsciously turned around to pick up the book, but just at this moment, Xue Ling lost the last chance to escape.

Although the car showed signs of slowing down, the cold steel still knocked Xue Ling away.

Just a sharp pain in my body and a roar in my ears.

After relieving himself slightly, Xue Ling opened his eyes.

The rain was still falling, and the little boy stood beside him in a daze, and the driver who got off the car was holding his mobile phone and making anxious calls.

"Wet in the rain? I feel a little cold. Xue Ling looked in the direction of being knocked away, and the books in the bag were still there.

Xue Ling tried to get up to get the book, but the feeling of powerlessness he had never felt before made him unable to stand up.

Bright red blood flowed down Xue Ling's head with the rain washing.

Xue Ling touched his head with his hand, and the blood on his hand made him realize how badly he was injured.

He struggled to crawl towards the book.

His eyes were heavy and wanted to close.

"No! I'm going to give the book to my sister! ”

Xue Ling worked hard, opened his eyes, and moved towards the front little by little.

But his vision became more and more blurred, obviously he was seriously injured, but his body did not feel any pain, all he could feel was a cold, a cold that penetrated into the bone marrow.

"Am I going to die? Don't! I can't die yet, my sister still needs me. ”

His vision was so blurred that he couldn't tell anything, and he was still crawling forward as best he could.

"No!! I can't die! I can't die yet!! ”

Finally, before he could see anything, his hand touched the bag.

After the darkness before my eyes, the senses of touch, smell, taste and hearing are gone,

Xue Ling seemed to be floating in the dark, wandering, but he couldn't see anything, he couldn't feel anything.

Suddenly, a faint point of light appeared in the distance, which seemed to guide Xue Ling forward.

Xue Ling unconsciously moved towards it.

The light source was still in the distance, and I saw a wooden bridge that could be passed by one person in front of me.

It's not just Xue Ling, there are sparse people walking around above.

Xue Ling stood in front of the bridge in a daze, motionless.

"Let's get over there." A woman walked over and said to Xue Ling.

Xue Ling couldn't think of anything, so she did as she said in a daze, and walked towards the bridge step by step.

The people around him all lost their memories like Xue Ling, and walked sluggishly like machines, stepping on the bridge.

"Let go of the forgotten life and go to the unknown afterlife." The words engraved on the bridge made Xue Ling stop.

"What, are you reluctant?" The woman asked.

"Well, I can't put my mind at ease."

"If you come here, you can't go back. Instead of being obsessed and wandering in confusion all the time, it is better to forget everything and start over. How the people in the world have nothing to do with you, so why bother yourself. ”

Xue Ling couldn't think of anything, but he was very anxious in his heart.

"Let's go!"

Xue Ling advanced again.

Suddenly, five black iron chains appeared from behind, tightly entangled Xue Ling, stopping Xue Ling's advance.

"What's going on?"

"Looks like you don't belong here yet." The woman smiled.

The black iron chain pulled Xue Ling back. All the way back into the boundless darkness.

Xue Ling slowly opened his eyes and saw the white ceiling.

"Brother, you're finally awake!" Xue Ziqing, who was sitting next to her, hugged Xue Ling very excitedly and said.

"Ziqing, what is this?" Xue Ling sat up and looked around, this is the hospital.

"You had a car accident that night and were taken to the hospital, and you were so badly injured, I was so worried, worried that you would never wake up again." Ziqing snuggled up to Xue Ling and cried.

Only then did Xue Ling remember the car accident.

He looked at his body and touched his head, and there was nothing unusual except for the bandage.

"I'm sorry to make you so sad." Xue Ling hugged Ziqing's head and comforted. "But I'm fine."

At this time, a short-haired girl came in from outside the door, her name was Su Anqi, Xue Ling's childhood sweetheart, and Ziqing's classmate, who was admitted to the city's high school with Ziqing.

Seeing Xue Ling wake up and sit on the hospital bed, he excitedly dropped the freshly washed apple in his hand to the ground.

"You're awake, you're scared to death."

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault, it's your fault that makes you so worried." Xue Ling apologized embarrassedly. "But how many days have I been asleep?"

"Three days." Ziqing said.

"Ziqing has been here with you for the past three days, it's not easy, you have to thank people."

"Thank you." Speaking of this, Xue Ling remembered the book he was going to give to Ziqing.

Xue Ling looked around, wanting to see if he had been brought.

"You're looking for this." Angel said, holding the book.

"Hmm."

"The kid you saved came to see you a few days ago and brought you the book by the way."

"That's good, great, Ziqing's book is for you."

Ziqing held the book, still with a bitter face.

"Brother, if you die, I won't be happy if I send more books, you know?" Ziqing looked at Xue Ling seriously and said.

"Well, you know, don't worry, I'll be careful in the future."

The doctors were all amazed at Xue Ling's resilience, it was a miracle for them that Xue Ling, who was once on the verge of death, had recovered in such a short period of time.

Xue Ling wasted time and money to go to the hospital after he didn't want to get better, although Ziqing and An Qi were very opposed, Xue Ling still left the hospital after being examined by a doctor.

Back at the bookstore, pushing open the glass door, Kong Hua on the cash register was very surprised.

"You're back!!"

"Hmm. I'll go change my clothes first. After saying that, Xue Ling ran to the room upstairs.

Although Xue Ling was fine, he vaguely felt a little pain in his chest.

He opened the neckline and saw that there was a black pattern on the left side of his chest. When was it painted?

He tried to wipe it, but the pattern couldn't be removed like a tattoo.

Suddenly, the door to the room was opened!

It's Kong Hua.

"What are you doing..."Xue Ling was surprised.

"No way, it's impossible for mortals to rebel against fate! You should be dead!! ”

"What are you talking about? Am I still standing here? Xue Ling felt very strange about Kong Hua's words.

"There's a problem, according to the soul path, you should have died a few days ago."

"What a soul path, but I did almost die a few days ago."

"Do you feel anything different about you?"

"A different place? No, I didn't get taller or more handsome, but if I had to say it, I was mischievously drawn. Xue Ling pointed to the part of his chest.

Hiss.. Kong Hua was so excited that he tore Xue Ling's clothes.

"My clothes, !!"

The black pattern on the chest, if you look closely, is a black dragon head, just in the heart area, but it doesn't seem to be finished yet.

"This... No way!! Kong Hua looked at the pattern and said in shock.

"I'm going to wash it off."

"It's something you can't wash off!"

"What?"

"A sign of soul power, you are already a psychic!!"
