Peng is a colleague of Li Wei, a very orthodox person, he doesn't smoke, he doesn't play money, he doesn't go to Hualiu Lane, and his daily life is very regular - getting up, going to work, getting off work, and going home.

Such days seemed boring, but Peng did not feel any discomfort.

Peng's parents are both teachers, it may be a problem with the parents' educational concept, Peng was not specifically required by his parents when he went to school, and it was basically a sheep-herding management.

The result of this is that Peng didn't work very hard when he went to school, and he was basically middle in the class, elementary school, junior high school, high school, and college, and it has always been like this.

Therefore, Peng did not feel any pressure in his previous life, and there was no depression in his personality, everything was decent.

However, Peng sometimes thinks about it and regrets a little, if his parents were stricter with his studies at that time, maybe, of course, Peng thought that maybe, Peng thought that he might be able to be admitted to a better university, find a better job, and work a little easier.

Of course, all this is just maybe.

Now Peng is thinking about getting off work soon, and he can go home and play games after work.

Peng glanced at the watch on the wall, and it was still a quarter of an hour.

Peng stretched, shook his head, which was a little swollen from the air conditioner, and stood up.

It's summer now, and the ice cream distributed in the unit at noon, Peng may have eaten a little too much, a little fast, and Bing's head hurt a little when he ate it, but now it has eased up.

Peng walked out of the operation room, opened the door, a wave of heat rushed in, Peng felt that every pore of his body was rapidly expanding, and the moisture in his body quickly rushed out from the open pores.

Peng hurriedly closed the door again and walked back.

It's still an air-conditioned room!

"This summer is working on the air conditioner!"

Peng remembered a sentence circulating on the Internet.

After a while, Peng's next colleague came to take over.

After handing over the work with his colleagues, and then the two chatted a few words, Peng happily changed his clothes, walked out of the operation room, and walked to the carport in the field.

Although the temperature has not changed in the slightest, after all, it is off work, Peng's mood is extremely happy, and it seems that the temperature has dropped a lot compared to just now.

Peng rolled out the motorcycle, put on a hard hat, and pushed the car to the gate of the factory.

Just as Peng was about to leave on his motorcycle, he suddenly noticed a familiar figure at the door, and at this time, the person also walked towards him and greeted him.

Only then did Peng recognize that the person who came was a not very distant relative of his own village.

When Peng Zheng was puzzled, his relatives said to himself: "Something happened at home, let Li Wei come and go back with you, don't ride fast on the road." ”

Hearing this, Peng's heart tightened suddenly.

"What's the matter?"

Peng asked nervously.

"Small things, nothing big. ”

The relative said vaguely, and then rode a motorcycle and accompanied Peng.

An ominous cloud crept up into Peng's heart.

"What the hell is going on?"

Peng's heart was like a mess, and he couldn't figure out what was going on at home even after racking his brains.

Relatives looked back at Peng again and again without worry, which made Peng feel even more uneasy.

Peng wanted to speed up the throttle and run back, but his relatives were not running very fast in front, and Peng was embarrassed to overtake him.

In this way, Peng followed his relatives and returned home.

Far away from the door of his house, Peng saw a bunch of people surrounding the door of his house, Peng's heart skipped a beat, and his intuition told him that something very bad had happened.

Peng muttered in his heart: "Nothing big, nothing big......"

As he muttered, he walked forward.

The crowd around saw that Peng was back, and hurriedly dodged an opening and let Peng walk in.

Peng's eyes were met by his father lying on a door outside the door.

He will never forget the scene, his father lay there motionless, without a trace of blood on his face, very peaceful, as if he were asleep.

The temperature in Peng's heart dropped to freezing point in an instant, and he couldn't express his emotions, whether he wanted to cry or wait quietly.

Peng felt that he was extremely calm now, the heat wave of midsummer and June seemed to have disappeared, and Peng only felt helpless and lonely for a while, like a page of boat in the turbulent waves, like a lonely grass in the storm, like a lamb lost in the night.

Peng didn't cry, and he didn't cry hysterically, and from the mouths of his relatives, Peng learned that his father had drowned.

Peng feels that he can't accept this reality, this is all a plot that only exists in novels, how can it happen in his own family.

Peng sat silently beside his father, and someone next to him brought a low stool.

Peng quietly looked at his father, the once solid, encouraging, and carefree backer who fell to the ground, the father who used to ride a bicycle every day and took him to school left, the father who called every time he was in college to ask for warmth was gone, gone forever.

Peng stroked his father's face, and for the first time felt that life was so fragile, and the line between life and death was so close.

It turns out that when a person dies, that's it, if you don't distinguish carefully, it's like falling asleep, carefree and unconcerned.

Peng's tears swirled in his eyes and fell.

An old man next to him hurriedly walked over and said to Peng: "Don't let the tears fall on your father, in that case, he will walk very heavy." ”

Hearing this, Peng subconsciously retreated, but the tears still couldn't stop falling like beads with broken threads, falling into the dust next to the door panel where his father was lying, splashing a little faint dust.

For a period of time, Peng's mood was very low, and he couldn't see any smile on Peng's face for a long time.

We are the same age, Peng is easy-going, and we get along well on weekdays.

Seeing that Peng was in a bad mood, our brothers also felt uncomfortable, so they often took Peng to drink after work.

Peng is not good at drinking, a few times he was drunk, Peng often cried when he was drunk and said that he missed his father, and he didn't even dream of his father during this time, and my brothers were sour in their hearts.

Finally, after Peng's drunkenness again, Li Wei said to Peng: "I have a friend, I think, he can help you." ”

Hearing Li Wei's words, Peng cried and took Li Wei's hand and asked Li Wei to help him, and Li Wei also made up his mind, even if Li Wei paid this time, he asked Qiao Shan to help Peng.

After Li Wei and Qiao Shan put forward Li Wei's request, Qiao Shan did not show any displeasure, but praised Li Wei's practice of sticking a knife in the ribs for his friends.

But praise is praise, Qiao Shan proposed that the money could be wanted, but Li Wei was asked to be on call the next time he asked Li Wei for help, and he was not allowed to raise objections.

Such a condition is no condition for Li Wei, and Li Wei didn't even consider it, so he agreed.

Finally, on a cloudy afternoon, Li Wei received a call from Qiao Shan, asking Li Wei to take Peng tonight.

Li Wei looked at the sky outside, it was gloomy and seemed to be raining, so Li Wei was a little displeased, and asked Qiao Shan if he could say hello a day in advance?

Qiao Shan didn't explain a word, just said-"Come or not!"

Of course, Li Wei had no problem, and was busy going to Peng's workshop to ask Peng what class he was on.

Fortunately, the workers said that Peng was off work today.

So Li Wei quickly dialed Peng's phone and told him the news.

On the other end of the phone, Peng seemed very excited, and after setting the time and place, Li Wei ended the call.

After dinner, it rained lightly, but Peng still came to the place designated by Li Wei on time, and Li Wei chatted with him for a few words and went to Qiao Shan's studio in the rain together.

When he entered the door, Li Wei felt very happy, because, obviously, Qiao Shan had already arranged the field, which washed away most of Li Wei's annoyance in the rain.

"Li Wei said Uncle Qiao, didn't you look at the weather forecast today?

Li Wei said angrily.

Peng hurriedly dragged Li Wei next to him and said, "It doesn't matter, it's not raining much, so let's take a walk after dinner." ”

Seeing that Peng had no opinion, Li Wei naturally had no opinion, and he didn't say anything anymore.

"You think it's watching blockbusters online, when you love to watch it!"

Qiao Shan seemed to be in a bad state tonight, and Li Wei couldn't help but be a little worried.

"No, you seem to have something on your mind, I can explain it to you, don't work with emotions, yes, I didn't say what I just said. ”

Li Wei said to Qiao Shan half-jokingly.

"Excuse me, Brother Qiao, if it's inconvenient tonight, we'll come back another day, what we have is time. ”

Peng also saw that Qiao Shan seemed to have something to do, and was busy playing a round.

Qiao Shan calmed down his emotions at this time, looked at Peng and said, "It doesn't matter, in fact, it's nothing, I just received a call, and one of my relatives just passed away today."

You can't change the day, you need to calculate the time, if tonight passes, the next time may be a year or even a few years later. ”

Qiao Shan said decisively.

"Is it so exaggerated, isn't it easy to solve a problem every time you see it?"

Li Wei muttered quietly, and Li Wei was sure that Qiao Shan would never hear the voice made by Li Wei.

Peng listened to Qiao Shan's words and didn't say anything more, just said a few thanks.

"First of all, I want to ask you a question, you must answer it truthfully, this is not a joke, you can't lie. ”

Qiao Shan's eyes stared at Peng and said.

Peng nodded solemnly.

Li Wei felt so strange that what kind of question was so serious, but Li Wei did not interrupt their conversation, but just pricked up his ears and listened attentively.

"If there is a machine that can instantly transfer people from one place to another, but the principle of this machine is just to copy all the molecules of the person in the machine, and then break them up, and then regenerate the person at the other end.

Of course, the newly generated person has all the memories of the original person, including the personality, so you can judge whether this person is the original person?"

Peng Si lowered his head and asked, and soon, when Li Wei was still struggling with the answer, Peng had already answered.

"If this person looks exactly the same as the original, and the memories are the same, then I admit that this person is the original person. ”

Peng replied calmly.

"Would you like to let you into that kind of machine to teleport?"

Qiao Shan said to Peng with a smile.

"I'm not going in!"

Peng said quickly and resolutely this time.

"I'm not going to go in either, definitely and definitely!"

Li Wei also helped echo the words.

"Alright, this test is over, don't forget what you just said. ”

Qiao Shan said with a smile still on his face.

Li Wei and Peng stood in place, and the second monk was dumbfounded, not knowing what was the use of Qiao Shan asking these questions inexplicably.

Qiao Shan looked up at the electronic calendar on the wall, and the words "10:05" composed of red light-emitting diodes were particularly conspicuous.

"Okay, let's start now, remember, what you see is not necessarily true, but it is not necessarily not true, you don't try to change anything, that way, not only can you not do anything, but it will also backfire, the past has passed, your purpose this time is just to see, but the pain of missing, Li Wei hopes that everything you see will be just a dream for you. ”

Qiao Shan told Peng again, and then he dragged out a large suitcase from under the table, moved it to the middle of the previously arranged field, and opened it.

Li Wei stretched out his head and glanced at a device that resembled an old-fashioned dual-card tape recorder, with two speaker-like things on both sides.

Li Wei looked at Peng beside him, he was also looking at it with his neck stretched out like a duck, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

"Stand near the box. ”

Qiao Shan said to Li Wei very seriously.

Li Wei and Peng hurriedly walked into the suitcase.

I saw Qiao Shan reach out and press a button of the device, and immediately, from the two horn-like things burst out of the blue light, in the blue light, Li Wei saw several layers of stronger sci-fi blue light, like several thin pieces of paper stacked together, but figuratively speaking, it was more like a few thin layers of mist, because those blue light flakes looked like they had no thickness, but they looked like they were three-dimensional.

Moreover, inside each layer of blue light, Li Wei saw that there seemed to be a lot of three-dimensional things active in it, but Li Wei quickly rejected his idea, because, how could there be something in the blue light that was thinner than paper and I don't know how many times?

Everything was like a dream, Li Wei looked at the shining blue light, and felt like he was in a dream.

Qiao Shan looked at those blue light flakes intently, frowning from time to time, and it could be seen that he seemed to have spent a lot of energy.

After a long while, Li Wei finally saw a relaxed expression on Qiao Shan's face.

Qiao Shan let out a sigh and said to Peng: "You can close your eyes, maybe there will be some dizziness later, it's better to close your eyes." ”

"Hey, Li Wei said, do I close my eyes too?"

Li Wei found that Qiao Shan seemed to have forgotten about himself, and asked hurriedly.

"Whatever!"

Qiao Shan said as he fiddled with the device.

Suddenly, Li Wei saw a more intense blue light light light up, and Li Wei found that one of those flakes of blue light suddenly brightened, and almost instantly, the flakes became larger.

Soon, Li Wei found that the thin sheet spread rapidly like a drop of ink dripping into water, and a dazzling fainting light came to his face.

Immediately, the flake thickened and became larger, and Li Wei heard a noisy sound coming.

Li Wei saw some distorted images whizzing through Li Wei's body.

Among them, there are cars speeding by, there are vendors in the downtown shouting loudly, there are all kinds of unknown birds chirping vigorously in the deep forest, and all the chaotic kicking and messing is really not able to see anything, and I can't hear the sound of anything mixed together.

Li Wei felt his heart beat faster, suffocated, and his head was dizzy, and Li Wei felt that he was about to faint.

Li Wei hurriedly closed his eyes, feeling a lot better, but those noisy voices still drilled into Li Wei's head.

Soon, though, everything calmed down again, and all the discomfort slowly dissipated.

Li Wei opened his eyes.

Still in the original room, with the same arrangement, there are three more people in the room, Li Wei counted carefully, yes, it is three people.

The dazzling sunlight outside the window shines through the glass, and it's dawn!

Li Wei felt very surprised, and Peng's expression next to him looked the same, only Qiao Shan didn't see any change in his expression.

"Let's go, there's not a lot of time, we have to hurry!"

Qiao Shan said in a flat tone.

Li Wei and Peng both followed Qiao Shan out in a daze.

Li Wei got into Qiao Shan's car, Qiao Shan asked for the address of Peng's home, and drove in the direction of Peng's words.

Peng's home is about half an hour away from Qiao Shan's studio, and Li Wei looked out the window nervously all the way, but he didn't find anything abnormal, everything was an environment that Li Wei was familiar with.

There is a shop selling fried goods on the side of the road, and the fried chicken in it is very distinctive, and Li Wei has to buy it almost once a month.

Further on, a flower shop full of flowers is open, and the owner is a girl who has just graduated from college.

The girl is very beautiful and has a lively personality, Li Wei also has nothing to do to go in for a walk, and occasionally buy a few flowers back and insert them in the beer bottles that have been drunk.

Every time, Li Wei's mother threw a strange look at Li Wei.

There was a hardware store in front, and the female boss was a person in her fifties, with a very bad temper, Li Wei had been there once and never been there again, but he didn't expect it to be closed now.

Everything was the same as before, the only thing that made Li Wei feel abnormal was that he was clearly thinking, it was more than ten o'clock in the evening just now, and it was still raining lightly, but now it has become a clear daylight.

Soon, they came to the vicinity of Peng's house, and there was a burst of firecrackers in front of them, and at the same time, someone on the road signaled Li Wei's car to stop first.

They looked back, and several wedding cars were slowly driving on the road when Li Wei came, and Li Wei's car had to pull over.

"Just look at it, don't get off!"

Qiao Shan instructed as he drove.

Peng agreed, of course Li Wei knew that he didn't say it to himself, so Li Wei didn't squeak.

The first wedding car drove over, the rear window was ajar, Li Wei glanced in, and was taken aback.

Li Wei turned his head to look at Peng with his mouth wide open, and pointed to the wedding car with his finger.

Peng looked in the direction pointed by Li Wei, and in an instant, he was also stunned.

I saw that in the wedding car, Peng Zheng, who was wearing a groom's outfit, was sitting in it in high spirits, and the bride sitting next to him was blocked by a bouquet of flowers and couldn't see clearly.

Li Wei dared to swear to the sky, Li Wei knew that Peng didn't have a girlfriend until now, why did he get married all of a sudden?

Because Li Wei had experienced some incidents before, he was not very interested in the fact that there were two Pengs now.

But Peng is different, I can see that he seems to be in a dream, and he is a little confused.

Li Wei waited for the wedding car to pass and drove over.

Peng's home happened to be on the side of the main road in the village, and the family played a colorful shed on the street, Li Wei saw an old man who looked similar to Peng was happily busy on the edge of the colorful shed, and intuitively told Li Wei that it was Peng's father.

Li Wei turned his head to look at Peng and found that Peng had burst into tears, which confirmed Li Wei's conjecture.

Qiao Shan parked the car not far away.

"Don't get out of the car!"

Qiao Shan instructed again.

There are more people around the shed, but the shed is off the ground to fight, so from their point of view, they can still see the things on the shed clearly.

After another burst of firecrackers, the wedding celebrant began to come alive on the stage.

When the bride and groom visited their parents, Peng's parents were happy with deep wrinkles on their faces, and Peng's mother stuffed the big red envelope in her hand into the hands of Peng's daughter-in-law.

Just when Li Wei was looking at it, he suddenly heard a sobbing sound.

Li Wei looked back, and Peng couldn't help crying.

Li Wei hurriedly found toilet paper from Qiao Shan's car and gave it to Peng, and at this time, Li Wei didn't know what to say to comfort Peng.

"The people in this world are the same as the people in our world, they all have the same memories, you see, your father is alive and well here, you should untie the knot!"

Qiao Shan turned his head and said to Peng.

"The space we live in is just one of countless parallel universes, and everyone can theoretically find themselves in different parallel universes at different times, so the person in this universe is dead, but in other parallel universes, this person may have just been born.

Of course, the material that Li Wei is talking about is not the material that you understand in ordinary life, so for us, life and death are just a state, and there is nothing to be happy or sad about.

Only a very small number of people in the universe we live in have understood this truth, and the vast majority of people have sunk into the sea of suffering as Buddhism says!"

Qiao Shan continued.

After listening to this cloudy explanation, Li Wei also felt a little dizzy, Li Wei's mind was confused, and a strange question suddenly flashed.

"So, Boss Qiao, are you one of those very few people?"

Qiao Shan smiled bitterly and said lightly: "I am a awake person in a deep sleep. ”

"Damn! Li Wei didn't understand what he said at all!"

Li Wei spit out a dirty word softly, and his heart was foggy.

"Alright, we're going back!"

Qiao Shan looked at his watch and said to Peng.

Li Wei took another look. ”

Peng said pleading with tears in his eyes.

"One minute!"

Qiao Shan said in a non-negotiable tone, and at the same time, started the car.

On the color shed, the ceremony has been carried out*, the bride and groom entered the cave room, the groom Peng held the bride and began to rush home under the push and block of the good buddies, Peng's parents watched from the side, their happy expressions were overflowing, and suddenly, Li Wei saw Peng's father glance at Li Wei, and at the same time, he didn't know what to say to Peng's mother, and Peng's mother also began to pay attention to Li Wei's car.

At this moment, Li Wei felt a shock from the car, Qiao Shan drove the car around and drove back, along the way, Peng looked back from time to time, and at the same time kept wiping tears with his hands.

Li Wei thought to himself, "It seems that Peng is also one of the vast majority of people that Qiao Shan said. ”

Li Wei suddenly remembered Li Weilai again, and began to think about what kind of person he was?

Soon, they drove back to Qiao Shan's office.

As soon as he entered the door, Qiao Shan hurriedly beckoned Li Wei and Peng to approach his instrument that looked like an old-fashioned dual-card tape recorder, and at the same time, he carefully looked at the blue parallel light emitted by the machine.

Just when Li Wei turned around and wanted to say something to Peng, he suddenly felt that the blue light in the room suddenly increased tens of thousands of times, Li Wei hurriedly closed his eyes, but Li Wei felt that the strong light still penetrated Li Wei's skin and shone into Li Wei's body.

Li Wei's head was dizzy, his eyes were black, and he fainted.

Soon, a chill on his face woke Li Wei from his slumber, Li Wei opened his eyes, rolled his eyelids, and found himself sitting in a chair.

Peng stood next to Li Wei and looked at Li Wei with concern, and Qiao Shan was putting a teacup on the table.

Li Wei immediately understood how the coolness on his face came from.

Li Wei just wanted to settle accounts with Qiao Shan, but Qiao Shan turned around with a disgusted look but opened his mouth first.

"I said you're so ashamed, none of your colleagues fainted, but you held your breath and went, I'm gone!"

"I ......"

Li Wei opened his mouth and stammered, but finally did not give a reasonable explanation.

Even Li Wei himself wondered why he was so embarrassed this time.

However, since this time, Peng's spirit has obviously become much better, and it can be seen that Peng's mood has adjusted very well, and he has completely walked out of the shadow of losing his father.

Moreover, some of Peng's style of dealing with people has also changed significantly, and he is very open to some things, and he can maintain a good attitude every day.

So much so that everyone said, "Peng has changed!"
