Chapter 1 Incense
Jincheng is an ancient city with only two seasons: spring and winter!
The first time Fang Xu heard this sentence was when he received the admission letter from Jincheng University three years ago, the head teacher said it to him with a straight face! At that time, the head teacher wanted him to stay and repeat his studies!
At that time, Fang Xu firmly believed that his life was short, and he hoped that the last part of his life could be completed on the university campus! So I broke through the dissuasion of relatives and friends and resolutely stepped on the train to Jincheng!
Three years have passed, Fang Xu is still alive, and it is not difficult to see from the amount of food he eats five times that of his girlfriend Mu Zhirong that he is no longer the melancholy man who once muttered "his life is short"!
Fang Xu came back to his senses from the memories of three years ago, the only three circles of scale marks left in the cigarette between his fingers had already been burnt yellow, and Fang Xu didn't notice it at all, he took a sharp breath, and the unpleasant smell of paste went straight to his lungs!
"Phew... Phew..."
Fang Xu snuffed out the cigarette butt, threw it into the rusty ashtray trash can, and said to himself: "Old man, don't rush..."
Standing up and shaking off the ice slag from his shoes, Fang Xu slowly searched for a darker alley!
The old man in Fang Xu's mouth is Mu Yuren, the former dean of the Jincheng University Academy of Sciences, and the school used his body to make a human skeleton model according to his last wishes for teaching!
The first class of human anatomy for the freshmen of the School of Biological Sciences was very simple, which was to go to the laboratory building to understand the basic structure of the human skeleton.
Although everyone didn't know it at the time, the skeleton still made them afraid, and everyone just looked around the skeleton model to observe and take pictures, as for the measurement of the data, it naturally fell on Fang Xu, who was more courageous!
That night, Fang Xu had a dream, an old man with silver glasses said that he was very comfortable for him today.
Then on the second and third nights, Fang Xu dreamed of the old man, and asked Fang Xu to scratch him again when he was free, especially the itching on his back was very uncomfortable!
Back then, for Fang Xu, who thought he was destined for a short time, he couldn't stay up at dawn without seven or eight dreams every night, so for this dream, Fang Xu woke up and went to the toilet, and the dream was washed into the Jincheng River with the warm night beer.
Two days later, in the second class of human anatomy, Teacher Leng Ming asked all the curtains to be closed, and after turning off all the lights, two photos were projected on the curtain.
On the left is a skeleton, from the background when it was taken, it is not difficult to see that it is the one in the laboratory building, and the text below the photo on the right is Mu Yuren, the former dean.
In the dimly lit classroom, a huge picture of a skeleton and a deceased person appeared, which was a bit frightening, but everyone's mood did not fluctuate.
Because, in the Academy of Biological Sciences, "two cold" is the existence that makes everyone afraid! Teacher Leng on the stage is one of them.
After Fang Xu and the other freshmen learned about the "Second Cold", they had been carefully preparing for the past two days, and they were no longer afraid of that bone. But when Teacher Leng told everyone that the skeleton was Dean Mu's, it scared everyone a lot, and there were a few sharp screams.
Fang Xu felt a chill on his back at that time, and at the same time, he also hit a spirit, and the person who appeared in his dream was Dean Mu.
After class, after asking everyone, Fang Xu learned that he had dreamed of Dean Mu, and it was three consecutive nights, Fang Xu felt that the matter was a little suspenseful.
After dinner, he went to the laboratory building alone, and happened to meet a senior in a white coat, who respectfully lit a cigarette and stood next to Dean Mu's skeleton!
The senior told Fang Xu that he often dreamed of Dean Mu back then, and every time he did the experiment, it didn't go well, and after a whim sacrificed a cigarette to him, the experiment became particularly smooth. Since then, he has come here to light a cigarette for him before every experiment.
After the senior left, Fang Xu looked at "Dean Mu" and suddenly remembered what had happened in his dream in the past few days. After his careful search, he really found an unknown black bug the size of a pen balls on the back bone of Dean Mu's "body"!
After he captured him, he no longer dreamed of Dean Mu that night.
Bioengineering is a discipline that attaches great importance to experiments, and after Fang Xu got this "trick" from that senior, every experiment was really smooth. Gradually, the eldest of the four skipping kings in the student class, forever occupied the last row of the classroom by the back door, and the scumbag who barely climbed the enrollment line of Jincheng University by relying on the national bonus points, because of the excellent experimental success rate, actually counterattacked and threatened the hegemony of the Academy of Biological Sciences.
Today is the tenth year that Dean Mu has stood in the lobby on the first floor of the experimental building of the main campus of Jincheng University.
In the evening, Fang Xu and Mu Zhirong's "fluorescent rabbit" experiment entered an important part of the experiment. Mu Zhirong was not very sure of this experiment, and she was uneasy.
In the self-study class yesterday, Fang Xu told her about lighting a cigarette for Dean Mu in order to let her be in a good state. Mu Zhirong heard it, on such an important day today, how can the smoke work, it has to be fragrant!
When Fang Xu heard this, he was already entangled enough to be backward in his thinking, but he didn't expect Mu Zhirong to be more serious than him, and said in his heart that their higher education for more than three years had been in vain!
That night, Fang Xu once again dreamed of Dean Mu, who he had not seen for a long time. He made it clear - tomorrow is a special day, and he wants to smell the real fragrance!
What age is this, and it is difficult to see stores such as incense and candle shops in people's ordinary life.
This morning, Fang Xu almost went around the streets of the entire main city, but he didn't find a single incense and candle shop.
Fang Xu was tired of running before he remembered the Wuquan Temple in the east of the city.
When he got there, he took out one hundred and eight yuan in the name of incense and got three loose incense, and after Fang Xu secretly took it out of the temple, he found that the incense had been used, and when he returned, the person who sold the incense had already clocked in for a lunch break.
After an old woman learned about it, she told Fang Xu that the incense here could not be brought back to the world, and the kind of incense he wanted might still be sold on Waibei Street.
Waibei Street, blocked by the Jincheng River, failed to keep up with the rapid development of Jincheng, and has almost been forgotten by the people of the main city in recent years.
Waibei Street is composed of 36 small alleys, and because of the narrow streets, it has become a world of two-wheeled bicycles, and it is also a paradise for Gongheng bicycles.
But Fang Xu was very unlucky, among the ten Gongheng bicycles he encountered, eight were wearing an extra iron general, and the QR code of one was taken back as an ornament by whom.
The last one, Fang Xu swept it, popped up a connection, clicked on, "Profit-only businessman online amusement city, beautiful dealer online licensing ......"
Immediately afterwards, small pop-up windows appeared one after another, and after Fang Xu forcibly quit, he found that not a penny in the payment software was gone!
Fortunately, he didn't put all the money in it, otherwise it would be a small matter to copy the ham and go back for a while, and it would be a big deal if he couldn't buy the incense, and tonight, whether it was before going to bed or in a dream, he would inevitably have a hard punishment.
After walking for another hour, Fang Xu finally found a signboard written on old paper in a low and narrow staircase.
The paper is old, but the words on it are newly written, Fang Xu approached, and he could still smell the ink on it, "'Heaven and Earth Department Store, Baishi Franchise', it's really hard to find!" ”
The store is opened in the basement, no less than 100 square meters, with everything you need, and all of them are famous brands of large groups. The huge amount of tickets issued by the Tiandi Bank, the household appliances produced by the Heaven Company, the dragon car manufactured by the Donghai Ao Group, and the golden boy and jade girl cultivated by the Heavenly Human Culture Group are even more difficult to take their eyes off when they see it.
The boss was an old man in his sixties, wearing an old gray gown, and his long gray hair was tied up, which had a bit of a Taoist taste.
If it weren't for the two QR codes pressed under the glass on the counter, as well as the dim light bulb above his head, Fang Xu would have thought that he had arrived in another world.
Fang Xu took a handful of incense, and after paying, the boss ripped off a black convenience belt, handed it to Fang Xu, and said, "Young man, you have been very prosperous recently!" The boss turned around and pointed to the homemade billboard behind him, "If you spend more than 100, I'll calculate a hexagram for you for free." ”
Fang Xu frowned: I am willing to buy more things here, and besides, it is a good thing that my marriage is prosperous, what is there to calculate. He thanked him, took the bag and put the incense in it, turned around and left.
Fang Xu returned to school at almost four o'clock in the afternoon, and after taking a nap, he had dinner with Mu Zhirong in the cafeteria, and then took incense to the experimental building.
After the three red oranges were placed "in front of Dean Mu", Fang Xu looked back at Mu Zhirong, who was recording himself at the gate, with an unhappy expression, "Is it okay to use dim sum?" ”
In the past, Fang Xu came here to light cigarettes, but it was quite hidden, and he was tight-lipped about this matter to everyone.
After all, in the hall with the huge flat of "Gewu Zhizhi", once such an ignorant thing is discovered and spread, he Fang Xu will have to live under the contempt of nearly 10,000 eyes in the future.
It's hard to lift his head!
"It's just the meal, there's no one..."Mu Zhirong put away her phone, seeing that Fang Xu still looked uneasy, "The phone is here, I'll go outside to keep a sentry." ”
Fang Xu lit three sticks of incense, inserted them on the orange in the middle, adjusted his glasses, and closed his hands very reverently, "Old man, please..."
Bite......
At this time, the elevator door on the right side of the hall suddenly opened, and a group of students in white coats came out one after another. The short-haired girl with corn color who was walking in the front suddenly stopped, "Fang Xu, what are you doing here?" ”
The students in the back also stepped forward and looked at Fang Xu strangely!
"No... It's nothing? ”
Fang Xu looked embarrassed, and wanted to put away the incense, but he felt that it was inappropriate!
Just like when I was almost found out when I lit a cigarette last year and took away the cigarettes, I nagged the old man in my dream at night - the table was full of delicious food, and the people's buttocks just sat down, and before they had time to move the chopsticks, you were withdrawn, is there such a filial piety to the elderly?
Fang Xu squeezed out a few smiles, "Today is the 10th anniversary of Dean Mu staying here, and I was entrusted to give him incense!" ”
"The 10th anniversary of moving in", these are the original words of Dean Mu in his dream last night, but Fang Xu said it here in a hurry, and he felt even more weird, feeling as if Dean Mu was here at this time, looking at himself!
Click......
What responded to Fang Xu was seven or eight dazzling flashes.
"The genius of the rising sun also believes in this set, interesting! I have to share it with my alumni. ”
"Fang Shuai's pious appearance just now was so charming, it's a pity that I missed it!"
"Isn't this awkward smile handsome?"
……
Except for the girl at the front, everyone else's fingers are swiping quickly on the phone screen!
"It's over, it's over, I'm going to make the headlines on the school radio tomorrow!" Fang Xu looked at the three puffs of green smoke that were coming up, and at this moment, it was like the beard that shook when the old man smiled.
"Old man, I've been pitted by you!"
