Chapter 1. Ordinary life

Next Chapter

Deep in the rugged mountains, in a quaint temple

The temple is broken, with haphazardly intertwined cobwebs all over the roof.

The dappled light and shadow are frozen in the moss-covered marble steps.

The dim light shone straight along the broken paper window, on the golden statue of the god, which had become a little dim because it had not been tended for a long time.

Judging by all indications, it is clear that this place has been abandoned for a long time.

Crunch –

As the door slowly pushed open, the thick dust that had accumulated for a long time poured down at the edge of the door.

"Ahem, ahemβ€”"

In the midst of the smoke and dust, the small temple also welcomed three uninvited guests from afar.

...

Twilight

Sitting around the fire lit by the haystack, the three of them finally began a short conversation.

"Three sons."

The man sitting in the middle was obviously the head of the three, and his behavior unconsciously carried a hint of majesty.

"Brother Chen, I'm afraid that this "Chronicle of Xifu" was planted, I'm really sorry." Judging from the expression of the man who was called the third son, he seemed to feel guilty.

"At this time, it's useless to say anything," the man said in a calm tone, after a moment of silence.

"I've already thought about it, if I transfer my salary to you, it should be enough to offset the punishment of this shooting failure."

"Brother Chen."

"Alright, don't persuade me anymore." The man waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "I know what the situation is." Instead of the three of you dying together, it's better to find a way to bring the two of you back to life. ”

"That's a good idea," the tall, thin man on the far left, who had been silent, agreed.

"What do you mean by that?" The third son was already red-eyed at this time, and scolded at the tall and thin man, "Do you still have any humanity?" How many times has Brother Chen saved us? The failure of this shoot was obviously not his problem, so why sacrifice him? ”

"There's a way... There must be a way. Suddenly, the third son's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Brother Chen, we will transfer all the remuneration to you, and at the last moment, we will exchange our lives for you some exposure." ”

"If you can live, you will definitely live." Speaking of which, he was already extremely excited.

"Enough!"

Brother Chen loudly stopped the words of the third son, and said categorically, "Even if I get out by luck, I will basically be a waste person in the entire theater." ”

"You're different, you're still young, and you have infinite possibilities." Brother Chen continued, "If you go out, you will definitely be able to help me take revenge." ”

"This..."Although he hoped that Brother Chen would survive, the third son knew in his heart that if he wanted to take revenge, he could only follow the path that Brother Chen said.

"Brother Chen." Looking at Brother Chen, who seemed to be nothing, the third son only felt a blockage in his throat and couldn't speak anymore.

From then on, the three of them stopped talking, and continued to sit silently around the fire and roast the fire.

...

The third son and the tall and thin man left, the kind that walked overnight.

At this time, in the temple, only Brother Chen was left sitting alone by the fire.

His body looked a little thin in the light of the fire.

"Fool, what chance is there to take revenge." He said self-deprecatingly.

There was no one around, and his words were more like they were for himself.

If the two of them were still here, they would be surprised to find that the man they regarded as fast on weekdays was hiding in a corner and sobbing silently.

Feeling the gradually cold hands and feet, Brother Chen only felt that his consciousness was gradually dissipating.

He knew very well that it was the call of death.

But what can be done? If you lose, you have to die, and he has seen this situation I don't know how many times.

The difference is that this time it is necessary to face and make himself.

Feeling the loss of his life, he felt as if something important was not being done.

What's important?

"Promise me to live!!"

At the last moment, a roar from the temple shook the entire mountain range.

......

......

"Hello interviewers, my name is Lu Yu, I am a 20th graduate from Harbour University, my major in college is pharmaceutical preparations, I have won the national F-level award, and I have a long understanding of your company......

In a spacious conference room, several middle-aged people in formal clothes sat on one side of the long table and whispered, while a young man in a suit stood on the other side.

The young man in the suit could see that he was a little nervous, and in the short self-introduction, the whole person stood straight like a stake.

"Alright, alright, you don't have to say it!"

Before Lu Yu could finish introducing himself carefully, HR, who was sitting in the middle, waved his hand, signaling that he could go.

What is this, it took me a few weeks, from the initial audition, written exam to today's interview, how difficult it was, and now you just opened your mouth to say a few words and let Lao Tzu go.

"Dear interviewer, although your company has a big business, do you think it is polite and appropriate to interrupt a short self-introduction?" Lu Yu didn't listen to the interviewer and went out.

Instead, he stood there and looked at the interviewers in front of him with a seemingly indifferent look.

"Mr. Lu, we have carefully read your resume, you are a very talented and highly professional young man, now please go out first, and our personnel department will give the final notice later" Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, the only female HR hurriedly rounded up.

"Okay, thank you for your advice" Lu Yu suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, bowed deeply, and then pushed the door out........

As soon as Lu Yu walked on his front foot, a young man in the same suit and leather shoes walked in.

After a brief greeting, he also began to introduce himself.

"Hello interviewers, my name is Wang Ran, I am a 20th graduate from Harbour University, my major in college is pharmaceutical preparations, I have won the national F-level award, and I have a long understanding of your company......

With the same introduction, if Lu Yu was still there at this time, I was afraid that he would have to raise his fist and beat people.

However, the middle-aged man on the far left said to the other interviewers casually, "Xiao Wang, I know, is the son of the director of the marketing and sales department, Wang is very capable, so I just want him, let Lao Wang invite you to a meal another day." ”

"What? The son of the old king? Then it's up to him! ”

Several interviewers briefly looked at Wang Ran's resume, exchanged glances with each other, and signaled that Wang Ran had passed the final interview.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

"Wait for the notice, wait for your sister's notice, there will be a total of four candidates for the interview, and the candidate will come out as soon as it comes out, so I'm waiting for a ghost!" Lu Yu slashed at the air in front of him a few times.

It is said that college students are unemployed after graduation, and Lu Yu originally thought that his grades were not bad and should not be so miserable, but now he finds that it is really realistic. From graduating half a year ago to now, every company I found asked me to wait for notice, and I didn't wait for my job today.

"Forget it, let's find the next one.." Lu Yu took out his mobile phone and searched carefully on the recruitment software.

"Who is so immoral and littering?" Just as Lu Yu was walking with his head down, he only felt that it was dark in front of him, and a huge poster wrapped his head.

The angry Lu Yu pulled off the poster on his head with one hand and looked around viciously.

However, there is not even half a figure around, except for the green birches. By all indications, it seems that the gale brought the poster.

"Thief God, you me too?" Lu Yu glanced at the poster in his hand, and the next second the whole person froze in place.

I saw a poster showing two dilapidated buses moving slowly on a deserted highway with the boundless Gobi beside the highway and a lot of passengers standing in the car. The road ahead seems to be obscured by fog, and it is impossible to tell from the poster whether there is an end in sight. And the name of the movie "Where is the Road" also confirms Lu Yu's opinion.

Of course, this is not the point, the point is that Lu Yu actually found himself in the bus. He was wearing exactly what he was wearing at this time, and his face was full of horror.

Lu Yu looked at the list of personnel, and found his name among the supporting roles, and specially marked the region where he was located.

Plagiarism, proper plagiarism! Lu Yu is angry, why don't you know when he acted? Some time ago, there was a lot of uproar slandering Brother Diamond for plagiarizing composers on the Internet, isn't it because of the infringement?

"Hell Pictures? What is this? Lu Yu, who was about to look for further evidence, was stunned, and watched it for more than ten minutes, is it a prank to co-author?

Who is so boring, Lu Yu crumpled the huge poster into a ball and hit the trash can accurately with a three-point shot.

Lu Yu's home is actually not far from the interview location, so it only took Lu Yu half an hour to return home.

"Coming back? Was the interview successful today? Lu Mu was cleaning up, and when she saw Lu Yu pushing the door in, she asked with concern.

"Don't mention it, let me wait for the notice, kill me again, I have to find the next one." Lu Yu was still unhappy with the interviewer, and told his mother like pouring beans.

"Alas, how many times have I told you, such a big person, you have to be polite to other interviewers." Lu Mu said with a smile.

"Mom, everyone looks at the relationship now, I'm polite, I bowed to others and poured water, and the interviewer didn't invite me out as soon as I opened my mouth!" Lu Yu washed an apple casually and took a bite, "That group of interviewers, just give him face, people are good at being bullied, I am the most polite, and the speed at which people invite me to come out is also the fastest, maybe it has already been decided"

"This kid, how did your dad educate you? It's gold that always shines, as long as you are talented, can people want you? Lu Mu was not happy when she heard this.

"Mom, I'll give you an analogy of a game, it's also a game, and only full-level players can have a tie with the recharge sprouts, do you think it's fair?" Between the words, Lu Yu had already finished eating the apple.

"People have a relationship, that's his ability, who called your old Lu family no big people, you don't care, you have to be sincere, climb up step by step........." Lu's mother saw that Lu Yu was a little absent-minded, and educated again.

"Alright, alright, stop, I know, Mom." Seeing that he couldn't talk about his mother, Lu Yu hurriedly ran into the bedroom and closed the door.

"You kid, I don't like to hear a few words about you when adults." Seeing that Lu Yu had already run away, Lu Mu picked up the broom in her hand again and got busy..........

Lu Yu, who was lying on the bed, once again remembered the poster during the day, who was so boring and tricking himself. 'College classmates? Competitor? ’

After thinking about it for a while, I realized that no one would do such a thing for no reason. To be honest, the past few weeks of running around have really made Lu Yu feel very tired.

After thinking hard to no avail, Lu Yu only felt an irresistible sleepiness coming, and fell asleep groggily...........

"Yuyu, it's time to eat!" Lu Mu knocked on the door, and when she saw no response, she pushed the door open.

"This kid doesn't sleep with a quilt!" Lu Mu, who was muttering, stretched out her hand to cover Lu Yu with the quilt, turned off the light and gently closed the door.

If someone stood beside Lu Yu's bed at this time, they would definitely jump up immediately in fright.

I saw that in the darkness, Lu Yu's body first slowly returned to nothingness, and then a black shadow stretched out from the wall to completely wrap it, and when he looked at it again, the whole person had disappeared into the room at some point.

The quilt that was originally covered was slowly sliding down because there was nothing to support it at this time.
