Chapter 3: Ghosts
That's right, Zhang Cheng died, to be precise, a month ago.
Zhang Cheng, 19 years old, a senior at Jiangcheng No. 1 High School, his parents both died when he was very young, leaving him with only a pitiful deposit and this old two-bedroom house.
He is neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, not handsome and not ugly, simply put, the kind that will disappear mysteriously if he is thrown into the pile.
The early death of his parents, in addition to developing his independent character, also developed a lazy problem, which can be fully proved from the bedroom in front of him that seems to have been ransacked by eighteen thieves in turn.
In the past 19 years, except for the death of his parents, he has never had a trace of twists and turns and adventures in his life, not even a five-cent steel hammer, his daily activity trajectory is to go to school during the day to sleep, go home at night to play games, and so on, day after day.
In view of this, his grades have been very stable, regardless of the size of the exam, for three consecutive years in the first place in the whole grade, the only one in the more than 50 years since the establishment of the school, and it is estimated that this record will continue to be maintained in the future.
Although he was regarded as a rat by the teachers of the school, Zhang Cheng himself didn't mind at all, if it weren't for his father's last wish to let him be admitted to college, he wouldn't want to read this book for a long time.
What the? You said that with Zhang Cheng's grades, how could he be admitted to university? Come on! In this day and age, even if a pig goes to the examination room for a turn, he can receive a lot of notices after a month.
In order to charge you tuition for a few years, many third-rate universities will not be stingy with a graduation certificate worth five cents, oh, plus a plastic cover, let's count it as a five.
So Zhang Cheng thought very simply, with the inheritance left by his parents, he could still mix without worrying about food and clothing for a few years, and when he got the university diploma, he would be considered a bad deal if he burned it down, and then he would find a simple job casually, eat and wait for death.
But fate didn't give him this opportunity, just a month ago, in order to rush to the rank of the king, he hadn't closed his eyes for two days and two nights, although his hair had become a lump of oily paste, and the bags under his eyes were about to fall to the top of his feet, but he was still excited, and he was flying.
With victory just one step away, the final wave of teamfights gave him an adrenaline rush after using the last flash plus ignite...... Together with the enemy, he decisively slammed into the streets.
It's just that the enemy pounced in the middle, and he pounced headlong on the stained keyboard.
Well...... An Internet addict teenager abandoned his studies, became addicted to games, and died suddenly in front of a computer desk in the middle of the night.
This should have been an eye-catching headline for the major media early the next morning, and another benchmark for negative teaching materials would be resolutely provoked by Zhang Cheng.
But if that's the case, what's the point of writing this book......
So only half an hour later, Zhang Cheng miraculously woke up again, at first he thought he was just fainting because he was too tired, but soon found that things were not so simple, because at this time there were a lot of inexplicable things in his mind.
The two worlds of yin and yang, reincarnation, billions of living beings, demons and demons......
This...... What the hell is this?
Zhang Cheng's first reaction was that he had read too many supernatural novels recently, could this be a precursor to schizophrenia......
He immediately went out to the hospital, but halfway down the road, he found that something was wrong, his health has always been very poor, he used to rest two or three times on the sixth floor, but now he ran all the way down, and he didn't even catch his breath.
Zhang Cheng felt it slightly, and was instantly stunned.
Well...... It's true that I didn't breathe, but I didn't even breathe, isn't it a bit too much!
Zhang Cheng stopped, ignored the eyes around him, put his hand into his clothes, and pressed it to his heart.
No heartbeat...... Not breathing......
I...... Is this dead?
Zhang Cheng quickly confirmed this fact, and then completely blindfolded.
Although the hospital was already close at hand, he turned around and left without hesitation.
His grades are poor, but it doesn't mean that he is stupid, now when he goes in, as long as he has a little examination, he will definitely dedicate himself to the cause of human medical research, he thinks that he does not have such a high ideological realm.
When he got home, he slowly calmed down, sat on the bed and was stunned for a long time, before he remembered to take a look at the extra information in his mind to see if he could find clues to his current situation.
But as he thought about it, he found that most of the information in his mind was blurry, and there were only a few that could barely be distinguished at this time, but it was these few that made his expression instantly difficult to see.
After the body dies, the soul leaves the body, and the heavens know it, life and death, and reincarnation......
Zombie without soul, ghost without body, this is the law of yin and yang, except for ghosts and corpses......
The body dies and the soul does not leave, this is the number of heaven and earth, the calamity of yin and yang, does not fall into hell, does not enter reincarnation, exists for three years, and when the catastrophe comes, it will be wiped out......
it! Zhang Cheng couldn't help but scold angrily, his body is dead but his soul is not leaving, isn't this what he is talking about?
What the hell is a ghost? Three years of existence? When the catastrophe comes, it will be wiped out...... Do you mean that you have to die again in three years, and this time you don't even have scum left?
Zhang Cheng quickly understood the meaning of these words, and also understood his current situation, and immediately became angry.
Nima ...... Even if others die, at least they still have the opportunity to be reincarnated, and they can only wait for their souls to fly away? Is there any reason for this!
In the online novels I used to read, death is time travel, and it is either a prince or a son of a family, no matter how bad it is, he is a cow man disguised as a waste material or a sling wire with a system, and in the future, he can pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, step on the rich second generation angrily, marry Bai Fumei, and go to the peak of life from then on......
As for himself, even if he dies, he doesn't even give him a chance to be reincarnated, isn't this a bit too much!
In the past 19 years, except for peeking at the young lady next door taking a bath when I was a child, I have never done anything hurtful, God doesn't need to pit me to death like this!
Zhang Cheng stood at the window angrily and scolded for a long time, but God didn't say anything, and finally had to sit back on the bed.
He could only live for three years, and he counted on his fingers, and if he could count his age after death, he would only live to be twenty-two years old at most.
Twenty-two years old, it is when most people graduate from college, and at the beginning of their lives, they are going to be struck into slag by a thunderbolt, rather than this, it is better to commit suicide as soon as possible, so that at least a whole corpse can be left!
But then Zhang Cheng sadly found that he seemed to be dead now, and how the dead should commit suicide was an unsolvable problem for him......
He experienced life and death parting when he was a child, and he was originally a big grinning character, and after venting, he had to reluctantly accept the reality.
Never mind...... Three years is three years, anyway, with the way I used to be, even if I live for a long time, it will be a mess.
Anyway, there is enough time, and when you get a college diploma, but your parents' wishes, you won't have anything to worry about in this world, and you will be wiped out.
After this incident, Zhang Cheng didn't have the heart to go to school, but the college entrance examination was imminent, and he didn't want to be expelled for absenteeism for no reason, after all, the admission notice was the only thing he couldn't put down now, so he took out his mobile phone and called the head teacher, lying that he was sick and wanted to take a few days off.
The head teacher didn't ask much at all, a student like Zhang Cheng was simply a shame in her career, she didn't even have symbolic comfort, she directly approved the fake, and the meaning revealed between the words was very clear, it was better not to come, at least out of sight and out of mind.
Feeling the coldness of the head teacher's attitude, Zhang Cheng didn't say much, hung up the phone directly, and lay on the bed sighing, feeling depressed.
I grew so big, let alone falling in love, I haven't even held my sister's hand, and I'm really unwilling to die like this, and the cause of death is still so wretched, playing games until sudden death, if my parents know about it underground, it is estimated that the grave will be angry.
But fortunately, although he is dead, his soul has not left his body, and he can still move normally, except for the white spots on his face, he looks similar to a normal person, and because he usually doesn't like to exercise, his face is a little pale, and he shouldn't be noticed.
But in the future, you still have to be careful, if someone finds out, I am afraid that I will have to spend the remaining three years in the dissection room.
But things were not as simple as he imagined, and after more than an hour, he could clearly feel that his body was starting to stiffen.
At first, the eyelids could not open and close, and then I soon felt that my masseter muscles were swollen, and gradually turned into two hard lumps, and the whole mouth was opened, and the chin was stretched to the maximum, almost to the chest.
He hurriedly tried to prop himself up, but found that his hands and feet were no longer obedient at this time, and this stiff feeling soon spread to the whole body, Zhang Cheng was like a high paraplegic patient, except for his brain, he was still awake, he lost consciousness from head to toe, and he was standing on the bed like a log, and he couldn't even move his eyes.
I don't know how long this situation lasted, the light outside the window was dimmed several times, and the stiffness of the whole body slowly subsided, Zhang Cheng tentatively raised his hand, and found that he could move, so he slowly sat up.
When I turned my head to look at the clock, I realized that three days had passed.
But he didn't let go, his eyes became serious, he got out of bed, staggered into the bathroom, ripped off his shirt, took a few deep breaths, and then slowly stood in front of the mirror.
The body in the mirror was slightly emaciated and pale, but he didn't pay any attention to it at all, because it was on his bare skin...... It was covered with patches of blue and purple marks, which looked different in size, some as small as copper coins, and some as large as the palm of a hand.
And when I looked closer, my eyeballs also became cloudy and yellow, and blood streaks were all over them like spider webs, which was terrifying.
it! Zhang Cheng was taken aback by his image in the mirror, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
Fortunately, he is dead, otherwise he would not have been scared to death by himself again when he saw this scene coldly!
Is there a corpse spot already...... He forced himself to calm down, looked at the miserable situation on his body, and slowly took a deep breath.
As a veteran lover of supernatural novels, he certainly knows what the marks on his body represent.
I couldn't move before, because the zombie phenomenon that occurs 1-3 hours after death, and it will not dissolve naturally until 3-6 days later, which is quite fast......
A fly flew into the bathroom at some point, as if something on Zhang Cheng's body attracted it, kept circling around, and then landed on his shoulder, rubbing his hands, and his buttocks kept shaking.
Nima! Zhang Cheng raised his hand and shattered the fly into pieces.
He finally realized that he was still too naïve, it seemed that God really had an enmity with him!
Because from the moment the heart stops, the blood circulation in your body has been interrupted, and although you can still move now, the muscles and organs of the whole body will soon die and rot.
And now it is the end of spring and the beginning of summer, the temperature is gradually rising, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that in a few days, I will rot and grow maggots, let alone live for three years, I am afraid that after a few months, it will rot so much that only bones remain.
Seeing his corpse decomposing little by little, Zhang Cheng estimated that he might be the first in the past, but this first place was too miserable.
