Chapter 1: Rebirth
On the vast sea, strong winds gathered dark clouds.
The clouds are getting lower and lower, and a storm is coming.
An ocean liner sailing from Shanghai to the port of London is empty on the deck, like a lonely boat, floating on the vast ocean.
A young couple in the first-class cabin was chatting, "I knew that I would not go to England with you if I had been sailing for so long!" ”
"My dear wife, you have said this seventy-two times, do you want to disembark in this Indian Ocean? Are you going to swim back to Shanghai? The man was good-natured and soothed.
"Nasty!" The woman gently slapped the back of her husband's hand, "I don't know if Mrs. Xu next door has a better cold, I'll go see her." ”
"Forget it, you better not go, what if you get infected? Do you know that the European flu outbreak the year before last killed tens of millions of people, and it was specially infected young people like us! ”
The woman was so frightened that she retracted her foot as she stepped out of the hatch, "Bodhisattva, bless her with safety." I listen to you, just don't go. But you're going to get me a cup of coffee! I'm going to add two sugar cubes! The woman smiled mischievously and charmingly and shook her husband's hand.
"We're here to help! Mrs. Qu! Mr. Qu exaggerated a gentleman's salute and went to serve coffee.
In the next first-class cabin, a young woman, with her eyes closed and sweating profusely, was rolling on the bed with her eyes closed and moaning in pain.
A muffled thunder exploded in the distant sky, and the rumble spread all the way, and the sea area was suddenly stormy.
Shen Mengxi had a splitting headache, only to feel that a needle had penetrated into her skull, and with a bang, it exploded in her brain, turning into countless tiny needles swimming around her brain, she screamed in pain, trembling uncontrollably, her hands grabbed her hair and hit the pillow with a clatter, as if there was a train passing in her head, and it was like a wire in the wind buzzing, boundless, endless.
I don't know how long it took, the pain finally disappeared, and her mind calmed down, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't open her eyes, she was a little anxious, and she was not in a hurry for a moment, "People are dead, of course they can't open their eyes!" ”
Suddenly, she thought of a possibility, and her heart moved, and she opened her eyes.
It's an enclosed space, two beds, no one else, and a little shaky, the air is salty, it should be a cabin.
Closing his eyes, the Wuling space was still there, and Shen Mengxi took out a small mirror: an unfamiliar face.
She laughed, laughing out of tears.
- Resurrection from the dead!
Isn't it a blessing?
No, there are seven sufferings in life, the first suffering is life, and living is the greatest suffering.
A moment ago, I just experienced the pain of death again, and in the next moment, I experienced the pain of life with a headache, and in the future, I will have to experience this woman's life, except for reaping a little happiness and joy, most of the days are still suffering.
So much suffering, so much parting from life and death......
However, she smells the salty air, alive, there are still good alive.
I looked in the mirror again: I looked about 20 years old, and I looked good.
The body was hot, the whole body was sore and weak, and the mirror was very sore after only raising the mirror for a while, Shen Mengxi diagnosed it as a cold and cold, and turned out two capsules in the Wuling space, just a glass of warm water, and took it.
Then lie down, cover the quilt, and fall into a deep sleep.
As for where it is, who this face is, what the situation is now, it doesn't matter.
I don't know how long I slept, but when I woke up, the room was pitch black, and Shen Mengxi said, "Lao Wang, turn on the light." ”
No one responded.
She instantly cleared up: Where is there still Lao Wang here? The sorrow from the depths of his soul made Shen Mengxi burst into tears and could not be suppressed.
- The last suffering, I can't ask for it.
If you want to live forever, you can't,
Couples who want to love are inseparable.
She is now Zhang Jiayu, 20 years old, married and has a son and three years old. The husband who went to England to study abroad, thinking of her husband, Shen Mengxi suddenly had an inexplicable inferiority complex and timidity in her heart, similar to the indefinite hesitation of the future made her feel uncomfortable, this is a strange feeling, disgusting, Shen Mengxi sat up and tried to suppress her emotions.
Turn on the solar flashlight, look down at the ticket in your hand, the departure time is 1920.
"Ah, Lao Wang, it seems that we are really saying goodbye." She muttered.
At the last moment, the white-headed two leaned together, she felt pain all over her body, the quilt on her body was so heavy, and she was tired and hard even panting, but she endured it and didn't show it, and left calmly in Lao Wang's arms.
Finally, she felt a tearful kiss fall on her forehead.
It seems that in the blink of an eye, she is living in a young body again, and there seems to be the temperature of Lao Wang on her forehead.
Alas, how much love and hatred will be left behind in such a lifetime!
Shen Mengxi slowly wiped away her tears. Looking out of the small porthole, it was already getting light outside.
Find the switch, turn on the light, there are two suitcases in the small cabin, open it and see, inside are clothes, shoes, jewelry, and documents. There was no one to live in the other bed, and it was her fourth brother who arrogantly bought two first-class tickets, just to make her stay comfortable.
It's good to be young, and two pills restore health. Shen Mengxi pulled his face, smiled at the mirror, and walked around the cabin happily, his body was light at the moment, and there was no discomfort and comfort everywhere in his body.
After a simple shower, I changed into the clothes in my suitcase, and tried to get out of the cabin, the morning sun had just jumped out of the sky, and there was a little breeze, mixed with the fresh and salty smell, which made people feel happy.
The splint was wet and messy, as if it had just experienced a storm, and many people came out and greeted each other, and a woman with permed curly hair saw her and beckoned from afar, "Mrs. Xu, you are all right!" Looks pretty spirited! ”
"Oh...... Mrs. Qu, it's all right. Thank you for your concern! Shen Mengxi recognized the person who spoke and replied with a smile.
"Mrs. Xu, you are really in good spirits today!" Mrs. Qu said it again from the bottom of her heart, feeling that this woman was full of energy after recovering from her illness, and she was always shrinking in the cabin a few days ago, not liking to come out, and always keeping her head down and not liking to talk when eating.
"Mrs. Qu is also very beautiful today, and your eyebrows must be Mr. Qu's masterpiece again."
"Hey, he's just so clingy, what do you have to say" Shen Shen has nothing to do in the afternoon, and learns thrush from Zhang Sheng"! Hate to death! Mrs. Qu covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief and giggled. Shen Mengxi found that Mrs. Qu was not wearing a bra under her cheongsam, so she always held her chest slightly.
"It's envious." Shen Mengxi sighed sincerely.
Walking to the side of the boat, looking up to see a rainbow across the sky, complete, very spectacular, a child pointed to the rainbow and excitedly shouted: "Mom, look! Rainbow! ”
The mother reached out and took her hand, "Good boy, don't finger, it's going to rot your fingers!" ”
The child hurriedly withdrew his hand and looked at the beautiful rainbow in horror.
"There are immortals up there, and they won't be happy if you point it out!"
"Immortals, I'm sorry, Xian'er doesn't have to refer to you, Xian'er thinks you're good-looking!" The child folded his hands and apologized again and again. Shen Mengxi listened amusedly.
There was a sound of water, and a dolphin suddenly jumped up on the side of the bow, Shen Mengxi ran to the bow of the boat, only to see three gray dolphins chasing the cruise ship underwater, looming, Shen Mengxi couldn't help shouting: "Dolphins!" ”
At her call, the three dolphins jumped up and down one by one, causing a splash and cheers on board. As if sensing the excitement of the people on board, they jumped from time to time and followed for a long time before wandering away.
Shen Mengxi excitedly opened his arms to meet the sea breeze.
The rising sun, rainbows, dolphins, what a good omen, come to think of it, this should be a brilliant life.
******
The sun was getting higher and higher, and the sun made people panic, Shen Mengxi returned to the cabin, closed his eyes and sorted out his memories.
It turns out, hehe, so that's it.
Zhang Jiayu went here because of her husband Xu Shizhe, a famous poet who went to study abroad.
Knowing this, the excitement of seeing the auspicious omen just now disappeared.
It's a mess, where did the brilliant life come from!
Xu Shizhe was the first person to divorce in the famous Republic of China, and Xu Shizhe was not famous for poetry at this time, but also studied political economy at Cambridge. In Zhang Jiayu's mind, this husband is almost a stranger, only three times in the same room, she is pregnant, and then he left home to study Peking University, and then studied in the United States to study banking, obtained a bachelor's degree, and continued to study economics. Now it's back to the UK.
Zhang Jiayu always felt that he must be tired of himself, so he would rather wander around than go back to his hometown to settle down.
Thinking of the disgust on that handsome face, even Shen Mengxi shuddered.
This expression is a fatal blow to a woman. If you don't like it, that kind of expression like seeing something disgusting can crush the soul of a fragile woman.
Shen Mengxi sat cross-legged and meditated.
In the Wuling space, the street has remained largely unchanged. Shen Mengxi didn't use it much, the cooked food, pasta, and eggs in the supermarket were eaten up at the ******, and the rest of the pharmacies, bookstores, and gold stores basically remained in their original state.
It's just that there are a lot of medicines, food, vegetables and fruits, instant noodles, milk, biscuits and water in the parking lot, and she is hoarding to prepare for disaster relief, and the world will continue to have three disasters a hundred years later.
In the nine compartments, there are all items that she has classified for her own convenience.
The first grid of medical supplies.
The second block of food.
The third block of clothing. She found some skirts and a few sets of underwear that matched Zhang Jiayu's figure and the style of the Republic of China, and also found cashmere coats, fur coats, wool scarves, leather gloves, half-heeled leather shoes and boots.
The fourth book. "Zhuangzi", "The Siege of the City", the Four Great Classics, etc., as well as all the books about the Republic of China that can be found in bookstores.
Fifth Block Weapon. There are the most things here, five grids, knives; Five-two grids, heavy objects; Five-three grids, flammable; 54 grids, a 54 pistol, a 64 pistol, and a large number of bullets of corresponding specifications; five-five grids, batons, etc.; five or six grids, all kinds of ropes; Five-seven grids, fire extinguishers; Five or eight grids, anti-wolf water, homemade chili water; Five-nine grids, spherical.
The sixth block of money. There was nothing inside.
The seventh panel is a piece of equipment. Buggies, balance bikes, bicycles, swimming rings, lifelines. Compass, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, clock, whistle, flashlight, drone, camera, video camera, etc.
The eighth slot. Toilet paper, sanitary napkins, wet wipes, towels, soap and toothpaste, various cosmetics and other daily necessities.
The ninth frame commemorates the old thing. Here are the memories of two lives: two suitcases, a handbag, a cake, two candles, a Volvo car of Shen Mengxi, and one of Shen Mengxi's earliest mobile phones; A mobile phone full of secretly taken photos of Meng Fanxi on the farm during the era, several mobile phones that Meng Fanxi used normally, Meng Fanxi's grandmother's coat, a set of clothes made for her by Li Huixian, a pair of galaha, a stack of envelopes stamped with postmarks from various places, various versions of coins, all denominations from the first set to the fifth set, as well as coins of various countries such as US dollars, euros, Japanese yen, Korean won, Peruvian coins, etc. There is also a gold ring that Wang Jianguo bought for her.
Shen Mengxi thought about it, collected a few gold bars in the gold store, put them in the sixth grid, and put the silver dollars and pounds in the suitcase in the sixth grid, leaving only a few in the handbag.
