Chapter 1: A Tragic Past Life
"Cuihe, look what's wrong with the little young master, although you can't play around like other people's children, but the little young master can't always sit alone by the lotus pond every day, right?"
"Oops~ Cuiyu, you don't know, our little master is different from other people's children, our little master is a well-known prodigy, I heard the old man praise the little master that day and said that he has a special gift, and he is very good, and he is in swaddling clothes, and Yingwu is born in the age"
"What do these mean, why can't I understand them?"
"I don't know much either, in short, the little master has a keen mind and an excellent memory, but that day I was very proud when I saw the master say these words!"
"That's definitely a compliment, but speaking of which, the little master is really, alas~......"
Although the two maidservants spoke quietly, Liu Yuan heard it so clearly, he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, and continued to sit by the pond and ponder.
Liu Yuan is about to be three years old, and he is the second son of Liu Chen, a big oil merchant in Zhuo County, and he was very unusual when he was born.
Others are born to sleep except crying, but he doesn't want to be energetic all day long, unless he is really sleepy and squints for a short while, and he doesn't cry or make trouble, and he will only hum a few times every time he is hungry.
And he often showed a thoughtful expression, which made Master Liu Chen very relieved, but he didn't expect that he and his wife were almost forty years old this year, and they gave birth to such a smart son.
Except for the necessary time every day, Master Liu Chen almost stayed at home to tease his genius son, and every time he saw others, he would keep boasting.
Slowly, the genius name of Liu Yuan, the second son of Liu Chen, slowly spread out, but no one knew that this little genius had a big secret hidden in his heart.
He is not a person of this era at all, in fact, he is a hard-working third-rate university graduate from the 21st century, and one night he went out to work and did not expect to encounter a series of accidents and return to heaven.
It was a gloomy afternoon, so he got out of his rented hut and rushed straight to the barbecue restaurant where he worked odd jobs.
Because the road construction and traffic jam on the road were a little slower, as soon as I entered the store, I was scolded by the mean boss.
Liu Yuan, who had to bow his head under the eaves and was ready to resign after asking for wages today, could only choose to silently finish the scolding and came to the back kitchen to help the chefs skewer meat skewers together.
While skewering Liu Yuan, he kept cursing the mean boss in his heart, cursing his business to go off quickly, this guy actually skewered duck meat into mutton skewers to buy it for unsuspecting customers.
Every time a large pot of mutton fat is put in the back kitchen, these little workers put the duck meat in it and brush it, and directly skewer it on the meat skewers and take it out to grill.
After several hours of non-stop labor, Liu Yuan and the others finally finished skewering all the meat skewers they were going to sell tonight, and before they had time to rest for a while, they were rushed to the hall by the boss to close the market and wipe the table.
Liu Yuan lamented his tragic fate while cleaning up, he is a child in the mountains, he has been a left-behind child since he was a child, and his parents went out to work early.
He was only three years old when they left, and his parents took his infinite good wishes and stepped on the train to the south of the motherland, and at the beginning his parents could come back once or twice a year.
But when he was seven years old, only one of his father returned to his home in the small mountain village, and he didn't know why his mother didn't come back.
That night, he hid in front of his grandfather's door, heard the conversation between his grandfather and his father, and realized that his mother had left him and his father and ran away with others.
This news was like a bolt from the blue for the seven-year-old Liu Yuan, but he didn't expect the next things to happen one after another, making Xiao Liu Yuan tired.
My father had been drinking heavily since his mother had gone, and he did not come home every year, but only occasionally every few years, until when his grandfather died, and at the age of fourteen, he had not seen his father twice for seven years.
After burying his grandfather, his father was the only one left, originally he thought that he would be with his father in the future, but he didn't expect his ruthless father to leave him alone.
Since then, there has been no news, and he can only live alone in that small mountain village, receiving a meager remittance every month, and if it were not for the help of the villagers, he would have starved to death.
The successive blows made him live an early life of working while studying, and there were no good job opportunities in the small mountain village, so he could only go to various small handicraft workshops every day to find work.
In this way, with the help of everyone and his own efforts, he finally survived to the end of the college entrance examination, and he was admitted to a cottage university with "excellent" results.
He felt that this was the best he could achieve under relatively poor living conditions, and then he said goodbye to his hometown and came to a small city to live here for four years.
In the four years of college, he studied hard and continued to work and study, and finally got the graduation certificate that didn't mean anything.
Today is his last day working at this broken barbecue restaurant, and tomorrow he will find a stable job to support himself, of course, this is just a good wish of a new person who has just entered the society.
Just as he was recalling the first half of his sad life, a big slap slammed on the back of his head, beating Liu Yuan so hard that he almost didn't kneel on the spot.
He shook his beaten head and saw the boss's mean face, Liu Yuan didn't know where he got the courage to push the boss directly, and then shook out all the things about how the boss hurt customers.
This time it can be fryed, those diners who were skewering almost demolished this barbecue restaurant, and Liu Yuan also took advantage of the chaos to run out when he saw that the situation was not good, ready to return to his warm nest.
The owner of the barbecue restaurant is said to be the number one person in this small city, and although he can't do anything to those diners, it is still easy to deal with him, a powerless little person.
Sure enough, just as he was about to return to his nest, he was blocked at the door of his house by a group of thugs led by the crazy barbecue restaurant owner, and then a violent beating almost killed him.
All he remembered was that he had finally grabbed a stick that had pierced his thigh and passed out, and when he woke up again, he found himself awakened by the rain.
The lightning and thunder in the sky kept coming, and the torrential rain poured downwards like a pour, and Liu Yuan felt that the pain all over his body was unbearable, especially from the thigh that was pierced by the wooden stick.
The place he rented was the very edge of the city, and now there was not even a ghost passing by in the middle of the night, and just when he was about to despair, a bolt of lightning struck the stick.
Liu Yuan only felt that his body was light, and then he saw himself lying on the ground blackened, and it seemed that he was directly killed by the lightning just now.
Forget about death, just die, anyway, it's a tragedy to live by yourself, and it's a big deal to be reincarnated in the next life.
Suddenly, Liu Yuan found that after he became a soul body, he was still carrying the wooden stick in front of the front and the tip in the back.
Could it be that the soul body can also hold things now?
