Chapter 1 Actually, I'm not bragging
As the sun sets, people who have been busy all day have taken care of the last work at hand and are about to get ready to leave work. And on a construction site in the north of the city, there is no more hustle and bustle of the day. A group of hard-working brick movers also put down their work early and found a shady corner to rest. Ready to go home.
"Xiao Ao! Come on, come on. Don't be busy. Come sit back and rest. A group of workers sitting in the shade shouted to a young man who was still busy while wiping his sweat profusely.
This guy is in his twenties and is also a member of the construction site. He is not handsome, but he is also relatively sunny, and his neat and clean jeans with a white shirt look a little out of place with the whole construction site. At the end of the day's work, there is no dirt on my body. If people who don't know see it, they can't connect him with the construction site at all, and they will only think that he is a college student who is in school or has just graduated.
"Great!" The guy responded, "I'll come here after moving these." ”
I saw him carrying two bundles of red bricks in both hands, and the weight of nearly 100 catties seemed to him to be just two feathers. It was so easy to carry it in my hand, and it didn't feel difficult at all. The steps are light and natural, like walking in the woods. There was no trace of sweat on his face either. Although it is moving bricks, it gives people a leisurely and comfortable artistic conception.
"This kid didn't know what to eat and grew up. Our strength is not small, and we can't carry it at the end of the day. He's good, one person does the amount of a few of us. You see! It's so easy to call it a day. ”
"Yes, I didn't see any developed muscles on him, but that strength is really speechless, it's really unscientific."
"If you know science, you still come here to move bricks? It's good to be taught by experts early. ”
"Go, go, go. I don't understand, you know? ”
"I just didn't know how to move bricks here."
"Don't babble around here. You must know that if we move more bricks, one day we will also become bricks. People always have dreams, maybe one day they will come true by accident? ”
"Shh......h
"Brother Ao, come here. We're going to listen to your bragging. A young worker shouted to the boy.
"It's coming, it's coming." The young man patted the dust off his hands and walked to the shade where the workers had gathered. "You people now, your body has really degraded too much! I think there were some people back then, even when I saw it, they had to take a detour. You say I'm going to sunbathe. Who did you provoke? I woke up feeling a little cold. One look, Nima! There is only one of the ten suns left. There was a man standing on the ground holding a big bow in his hand and still wanted to shoot, I shot your sister! As soon as the bowstring sounded, I fell from the clouds. It's really scared to death of the baby. Luckily, the man had only nine arrows, and one more. I'm afraid I won't see the sun now. ”
"Hahahaha......" everyone laughed.
"I love to listen to Brother Ao's bragging." When the young worker saw the guy coming, he hurriedly moved to the side: "Brother Ao, the person you said about shooting the sun should be Hou Yi!" So who are you? If you can stay in the clouds, then you should at least be a fairy! Have you seen Sister Chang'e? Is it beautiful or not? Tell us what it looks like......"
After speaking, everyone laughed.
The guy sat down lightly and didn't answer, just smiled and shook his head.
"Xiao Ao, although I like to brag. But there was never malice. One of the uncles answered, "I listen to it every day, laugh heartily, and feel much better." It's our pistachio. ”
"Yes, yes. I still remember what Xiao Ao said last time: he thought the weather was too hot and slept at the bottom of a big river. As a result, a barefoot man came and drank the water of the entire river without saying a word. When he woke up, he found himself almost dry. Don't you want to think that there are people in the world who can drink a great river? Another worker said.
"Yes, yes! Legend has it that when Kuafu chased the sun, he was thirsty after him. Bending down, he drank the water of a large river in one gulp, but in the end he seemed to die of thirst. The young workers saw that they were more interested in myths, fantasy and other things on weekdays, and immediately came out to defend themselves.
"That time, Xiao Ao said that when he was sleeping, someone else pressed a mountain on his back. The strangest thing is that there is also a monkey pressed under the mountain. Xiao Ao said that he was just too lazy to turn over, and as soon as he turned over, the mountain would collapse. The little monkey had already run out. However, he was later let go by a monk. I know this is a part of Journey to the West. The co-worker remembered another paragraph.
"Look at how atmospheric and high-grade our proud bulls are, they are all related to myths and legends. It's not like those who like to brag about their wealth and ability. It hurts feelings, and if you don't pierce it, it's uncomfortable to listen to. ”
"By the way, Brother Ao, from the flood to the journey to the west, so many gods and immortals are all dead and hanging, why are you okay?" The young worker asked, turning his head.
Everyone was interested when they heard this, and they wanted to hear what the guy had to say.
The young man scratched his head and said shyly, "You heard it too." I was sleeping during the battle of the dragon, phoenix, and unicorn clans and did not participate. I was sleeping when Chiyou fought the Yellow Emperor, I was also sleeping during the Battle of the Gods, and I was still sleeping during the Journey to the West. I don't know what happened after that, I wasn't awake yet. ”
"Uh......" Everyone was stunned by his explanation, and they didn't wake up for a long time.
"You've been sleeping for a long time."
"Damn! Brother Ao, I know who you are! You're a god of sleep. ”
"But isn't it, I didn't expect Xiaoao that you kid works so diligently, and I can't see that you will be so lazy at all. From the flood to the journey to the west, I have been sleeping. ”
"Yes, yes. Seeing that he has been sleeping even bragging, this is almost lazy. ”
"I think of a sentence on the Internet: I'm not lazy with you, because I'm too lazy to compare with you."
"Hahahaha......" caused everyone to laugh again.
And the guy just smiled and didn't say anything in the face of everyone's ridicule. Watching everyone laugh doesn't explain, and I don't get angry.
"What are you doing, what are you doing! None of them work, lazy here. "I don't know when the foreman came close and laughed." Look at Ao Liao, people do the work of several of you, it's like you all sit here early and be lazy. also said that people are arrogant and lazy. I think other people's Ao Li is more diligent than you. ”
"Head, you're wrong, our arrogant brother is the sleeping god who slept all the way from the flood to the west, how can we compare with him." The young worker jumped out and retorted.
"Just your slippery head. Okay, everybody's up, and we're paid for today's wages. The foreman said, taking out a stack of brand-new Grandpa Mao from his briefcase.
The workers were so happy that they gathered around and took over the day's income one by one. The guy also stepped forward and didn't fight, just watched quietly from the side.
"Ao Liao has got you." The foreman counted four sheets of Grandpa Mao into the hands of the young man. "Do a good job, you see your income is about to catch up with me. If I had the strength of yours, I would have been able to move bricks too. ”
Ao Liao smiled and shook his head, "Head, you're laughing." And ......" he waved the bill in his hand and said, "Thanks, head." ”
"Go, go. Be careful on the road and remember to get to work on time tomorrow. ”
"Rest assured, head. Tomorrow will be on time. ”
The foreman turned away, still muttering to himself; "This kid is good at everything, he can endure hardships, he is willing to work, and he has strength. That's the name, alas! Needless to say, I'll have to bring two packets of 'Oreo' cookies to my little bunny when I get home. It wasn't his name that reminded me and I almost forgot. ”
Ao Liao stood there and scratched his head innocently. Then he rushed to the workers.
At the gate of the construction site, after saying goodbye to each other, Ao Liao and the workers went home.
