Chapter 16: A Writer's Story (I)

There are not only horrors and horrors in my story, but also chattering truth, and more true feelings in the world, just like the previous story, and this story was told to me by Brother Liu. Speaking of Brother Li, I can't use his real name, he is now the owner of a business, and I can't count his worth, but he used to be a writer. If you pay attention to the extended reading of high school Chinese when you go to school, there is also an article he wrote before closing the pen, which talks about human nature and education.

Although I call him Brother Li, he is really more than 30 years older than me. Our acquaintance originated from a business negotiation, I acted as an intermediary to introduce two big bosses to each other, and then after their business was negotiated, they would not only give me a high-value membership card of our business club for me to use for cashing out, but also give me a lot of referral fees. And Brother Li happened to accompany his stand-in general manager to discuss business that day, disguised as a purchasing manager. So we talked, and I learned the truth of the matter when I asked me for tea a few times afterwards, and I kept my mouth shut, so we became relatively good friends.

I was going to have tea with a friend that day, and I happened to see Brother Li in the teahouse, to be honest, although I made friends, it was not a friendship, after all, our economy was too different, and in the past, he invited me to tea just to let me introduce some other customer relationships for his use. The difference in social status has created a difference in our conversation and understanding, and after I said hello, I wanted to find another seat to sit down, but Brother Li warmly invited me and my friend to have a drink with him. Originally, we were embarrassed, but when we heard that Long Jing and he had brought his own tiger running water, we decided to sit down. After greeting Brother Li, his first sentence shocked me: "Old ghost, I recently heard that you collected ghost stories, tell me one, don't look at me so strangely, I happened to hear from a friend in the jade circle that day, Professor Liu, you know." I nodded. It's true that at that time, Professor Liu had just had a story related to jade, and this matter was related to one of my buddy-type clients, so I intervened. I'll tell you this story later. In fact, the strangest thing for me is why a busy man like Brother Li likes to listen to my ghost stories?

People are poor and short-minded, and horses are thin and long-haired. Who asked Brother Li to arrange all the entertainment and entertainment in my venue? So I carefully selected a ghost story that I thought was the most suspenseful at the time and told it to Brother Li. After listening to this, he nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I'll tell you one, it's also true, but you have to be patient, haha....." I laughed with my friends, in fact, I was very excited in my heart, I knew that Brother Li used to be a writer, and the stories he could tell me in his spare time must be good stories. And my friend happened to be fine, so he listened to Brother Li with interest.

"The story takes place around '84, when I had a friend who was also a writer. He started out working in a newspaper, and one of the things he decided was to publish his own book and become a writer. Life away from the newspaper was not as good as he had imagined, his talents were hindered, his writing gradually became mediocre, he did not know what to write, and in the rejection after rejection, he became more and more depraved. Without a dormitory, he rented a residential building in the center of the city, and gradually he couldn't afford the rent here, so he moved to a building on the outskirts of the city, and then he still felt the pressure and moved to a bungalow on the outskirts of the city, and the story began in this bungalow. Brother Li took a sip of tea and continued to chat: "After my friend arrived at the bungalow, he didn't worry about his life because of the low housing price, although he couldn't eat too well, but there was no problem with being full, and his spiritual sustenance was completely on his article and his beautiful girlfriend." His girlfriend is a water-based poplar woman, when he used to be in the newspaper, his salary was quite stable, and the income was also good, and the woman was lazy and often used him as a show off to tell others that her husband was from the newspaper. With the development of the economy and his downfall, the woman gradually only regarded him as the object of her jokes and tantrums, and became indifferent to him. Suddenly, one day, the woman disappeared and became unheard from. He was devastated, but it sparked his inspiration, and he began to put pen to paper and write good articles one after another. ”

"The large number of articles published has changed a lot in his life, and he has become richer and richer. He still lives in the suburbs, where his inspiration began, and he writes a new work, a thriller and horror novel. The content of the new novel is a story about dogs. A lone dog called Black Shadow roamed the edge of the city, Black Shadow was abandoned, he didn't know what species he was, but he was always stronger and bigger than wild dogs of the same age. If the story is written like this, it will be at most a fiction of emotions or a critical novel. But when the writer once went out to buy food, he saw a cat crushed to death by a car, and the cat's intestines burst like a ball, gushing out of its stomach. Inspiration struck, and he began to write: The dark shadow wandered in the empty suburban streets, he always felt hungry, he couldn't eat, he didn't know what he wanted to eat until one day he saw a wild cat crushed to death on the street, he leaned up, sniffed the fresh meat vigorously, he was used to eating human garbage, he always felt a little fishy, but he couldn't help swallowing saliva, so he bent his head and got his mouth into the cat's body fragrance, is it delicious is delicious, this is the food he is looking for....." Brother Li told in a voice with a sense of age.

Brother Li continued: "From that day on, the dog named Black Shadow in the novel occupied most of his time. His black shadows are getting bigger and bigger, and of course they're getting bloodthirsty. Kurage began to sneak to nearby homes to steal raw meat that he had just bought, until one day Kurage was adopted by a writer. Since writing this, he has found that the raw meat he bought is often inexplicably missing, and the newly bought pork ribs and newly bought chicken wings are always found in the early morning of the next day, and the bones are full of bones and uneaten minced meat. He wondered if there was really a big dog called Black Shadow around him, and he wondered if he had sleepwalked and eaten it because his thoughts were all on the book, but every time during the day, he always retched when he thought that it might have been the raw meat with blood that he had eaten. He writes about himself in the novel, a writer who has gone from despair to rebirth, a writer who has been abandoned by a woman, and a writer who has adopted a black shadow and lives in the suburbs. ”

When he wrote in the article that one day the writer's girlfriend suddenly came back to him, it happened so strangely. His girlfriend is back, and the injured woman is back looking for him. It turned out that his girlfriend went to Shenzhen and became a boss's junior, and after a while, the proprietress found out that she was looking for someone to beat her and expelled her from Shenzhen. When she returned, she inquired and learned that he was still living in the old bungalow, but his current worth and income were far from being comparable to those of the poor boy before. The woman knew that he loved her, so she came back to him. My writer friend, I'm really confused, he wants his novel to be written like this, and it happened again, he thinks it's not only providence but fate, not to mention that he loves this woman deeply. He was even more convinced that it was not he sleepwalking who ate raw meat at night, but that there was really a big dog called Black Shadow. "Brother Li added a cup of tea for each of us.

"He put his whole heart and soul into this woman. His manuscript fee was handed over to the woman after the front foot was in the pocket, and he took good care of her, and he hoped that the woman could live a good life. So he took out his savings from the other days and bought a house in the city. He thought that he would get married next year when his book was finished. What a wonderful thing it would be if it all went on like this. Although the house in the suburbs was vacant, some of the manuscripts were left there when he moved, and that afternoon he remembered and went back to get them, and when he walked to the door of his bungalow in the suburbs, he heard the sound of men and women having sex in the house. The man snorted lowly, and the woman cried and gasped, and he thought that maybe those young people saw that no one had slipped in to shoot the cannons. Suddenly, he heard a woman shouting, what, it was his girlfriend's voice, and he kicked the door open. Rushing into the room, a man was shaking wildly on a woman's back, the man's back was so strong and powerful, more like a man than his own emaciated self. And the woman under the crotch has a snow-white body, sexy thighs, and plump breasts that are so tempting, but sadly it is his girlfriend. The two men were visibly taken aback, and the man tumbled off his girlfriend. The two of them quickly got dressed, and even if they rushed in now, they knew that the two of them were doing something like Yunyu just now. The girlfriend rushed out of the room crying, while the man looked at him. He was furious and threw a punch at the man's face, but the strong man flashed lightly and punched him in the stomach. He fell to the ground in pain, and then a rain of fists flew over, mixed with heavy kicks. Suddenly, he saw a black mass in the doorway, it was a black shadow, and he had come to save himself. The shadow flew up and pounced on the man, biting at the man's arms and neck. It wanted to kill the man, but the man's bite blood flowed, and he struggled hard, and with a scream, he pushed away the black shadow and jumped out of the window. The shadow was about to chase after him, but he stopped, he was afraid that the shadow would bite the man to death. Suddenly, Brother Li's mobile phone rang.

He picked up the phone, said a few words, and then said to me: "You guys drove today, I went out for a walk today and drank tea by the way and didn't drive." If you two are okay, send me to Xinzheng, I bought a house there. "I looked at my friend, and he obviously wanted to know how the dark shadow could be, why a dog in the book would suddenly pop up to save the writer. So my friend nodded and said, "Big brother, no problem, we'll send you over, and you can show you the way when you get to Xinzheng." Brother Li smiled and looked at us and said, "Then it's troublesome for you, let's tell the following story while driving." ”

The three of them got into the car, and on the way, Brother Li started the following story again, although I still can't confirm the authenticity of this story. But I still believe it's true after listening to it, what about you?
