Chapter 1: The Haunted Factory
Prospect:
According to the record of "Classic of Mountains and Seas", there are three immortal mountains in the world, Penglai, Abbot and Yingzhou, there are immortals on the mountain, and the immortals have magic medicine, and the food is immortal, which is called "immortal medicine", and the ancient books record it as "Chitose".
During the Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor sent the priest Xu Fu to search for the "medicine of immortality", and the wild history records: After Xu Fu searched everywhere to no avail, he was afraid that after returning to the main hall, he was whipped by the world, and the powerful Qin Shi Huang gave him death, so he never returned.
The land of China, thousands of years, the changes of history are always in the hands of successful people, the fate of success and defeat remains unchanged, and the fragments of memory have been buried in the dust of history over time.
Modern, Urban:
The weather in the north has four distinct seasons, the snowflakes flying in the middle of winter render every hustle and bustle of the city, in the picture wrapped in silver, a tall figure walks alone on the street, handsome and handsome, full of scholarly anger, at this time he is holding his resume in his left hand, and holding a mobile phone in his right hand to make a call, his name is Chu Lin, a fresh graduate, after many setbacks, he finally found a suitable job, and said confidently to the phone:" I said dead fat, this interview brother is over at once, and I will go to the company to report tomorrow, anyway, you are also a big idler for the time being, go with me tomorrow, recognize the door and come back, how about it?" Chu Lin said heartily, with a sunny smile on his face.
A simple and loud voice rang on the other side of the phone, and he said honestly: "Brother Lin, which company is so short-sighted, even accepting goods like you?"
"Go, go, if you can talk, you can talk, if you can't speak, learn to call a donkey" Chu Lin said impatiently, and did not forget to blow a hot breath into the palm of his hand to warm up.
Hearing Chu Lin say this, the fat man over there couldn't help laughing, and said happily: "See you at half past six tomorrow morning, at the entrance of the library subway station, by the way, Brother Lin, which company are you applying for?"
Chu Lin replied proudly: "XXX Machinery Factory in Shibei District."
"XXX Machinery Factory, Brother Lin, you can't go, that factory is haunted," the fat man said angrily when he heard this.
"Haunted, is it real?, what should I do?" said Chu Lin timidly, pretending to be very scared.
After years of friendship, the fat man immediately saw through Chu Lin's disguise, and just responded lightly: "See you tomorrow or not disperse" and a few words to each other, due to the cold weather, Chu Lin hung up the phone.
Although his body was trembling by the cold wind, Chu Lin's heart was still full of warmth. The fat man on the call is called Qi Yunshan, who is a young man who has been working for more than 10 years and is one year younger than Chu Lin. is a big and uninhibited person, and he dropped out of school when he was in junior high school. When Chu Lin was in his second year of college, the fat man who couldn't stay idle also followed, and he found a part-time job near Chu Lin's college town to make a living. The fat man was almost obedient to Chu Lin's words, and after years of getting along, Chu Lin also regarded the fat man as one of his few relatives.
Chu Lin has never seen his parents since he was sensible, and it was his grandparents who brought him up, and when he was young, he asked about his parents many times, but they were all prevaricated. Seeing the embarrassed look of the second elder, Chu Lin also gave up asking.
Chu Lin's grandfather was a little harsh, and excessively demanded that Chu Lin study hard, grow up to find a stable job in a state-owned enterprise or public institution, and spend the rest of his life in a stable manner, which is a spiritual product under the dictatorship of the proletariat of the older generation, but it is understandable. After all, in this special era, the richer the people, the richer they will be, and the poor will be 90% in the end.
Chu Lin's grandmother is very different from the old man's concept, she thinks that as long as her grandson is in good health, fed and clothed, and happy for the rest of his life, as for whether he will develop in the future and what position he will be in, it is all secondary, and it is a typical example of a grandmother loving her grandson.
Thinking back to his grandmother's Yin smile, the corners of Chu Lin's mouth couldn't help but curvature, it has been several years since her grandmother passed away, and the best thing for herself in this world may be grandma, and there is nothing more cherished in the world than this.
The last thing that grandma left Chu Lin was an old-fashioned old package, and when she was dying, she told Chu Lin that if she encountered something strange in the future that she couldn't solve by herself, it might be useful to open it. If not, it should never be opened. For his grandmother's last words, Chu Lin still didn't dare to be disobedient, this was the only thing his grandmother left him, no matter where he went, Chu Lin would carry it with him, but he never opened it.
I went back to my rental house outside the school and packed all my luggage. Chu Lin, who was lying on the bed, couldn't help but sigh with emotion: I will leave here tomorrow, I once came to the university with a dream, and after 4 years of campus life, I can only pick up the burden on my shoulders in the future. I also have to take care of my grandfather, and the fat man...... Be sure to get ahead and let them live a good life. Thinking about it, suddenly his vision slowly blurred, and then gradually lost consciousness, yes, he was asleep.
In the early morning of the next day, Chu Lin changed into a new set of clothes, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his heroic spirit was compelling. Standing in the crowd, it is definitely the most eye-catching one. I looked at my watch, and it was already 6:35.
"This fat man, it's already 5 minutes late. Chu Lin silently greeted Qi Yunshan in his heart.
As soon as I thought of this, I saw a tall, pot-bellied, fat-headed, big-eared, fat and strong man standing across the road...... In short, it is not an exaggeration to use all the words that can be used in relation to obesity. Of course, it's okay to have big breasts and fat buttocks, if you want to use it on the fat man in front of you.
For fat people, Chu Lin's thoughts are different from others, he likes fat people, thinks that fat people are mascots, a symbol of wealth, a symbol of peace, a symbol of fullness, and a symbol of fullness.
Qi Yunshan panted and ran in front of Chu Lin, slowly unloaded the backpack on his body, and carefully turned out glutinous rice, black donkey hooves, garlic, peach wood swords and other evil things from it, and stuffed them to Chu Lin one by one.
Chu Lin was dumbfounded and subconsciously took all kinds of items, and before he was busy asking questions, the fat man spoke first, still in the same tone of underbeating, and said righteously: "Brother Lin, these are all I bought after I got off work last night, you take them all, you must come back alive."
Chu Lin said with a smile when he heard this: "I'm going to work to report or to subdue demons and eliminate monsters, I can understand these things, so what does this Luoyang shovel mean, is Lao Tzu going to rob the tomb?"
The fat man said while dancing: "This is a weapon, you can shovel and shovel ghosts, or you can dig a pit to bury yourself."
"Shovel ghosts, this method is what you fat man can think of, pack it up and keep up, I'm going to be late for a while" Chu Lin stuffed the things in his arms into the fat man's backpack, picked up the suitcase and went to the subway entrance. Although he was indifferent on the surface, Chu Lin's heart was still warm, and although the fat man was not serious on the surface, he was worried about himself in his heart.
The "faltering" fat man followed Chu Lin and shouted, "Brother Lin, wait for me, you don't want to go in alone, it's too dangerous inside." ”
With the repeated reminders of the subway station, the train has entered the suburbs, and there are few people on the train at this time, just in time for the morning rush hour, and the rest of the people are almost all employees of the machinery factory.
"It's almost the New Year, and after the New Year, I'll find a job in the spring of next year, and I'm not going to work in this hellish place."
"Yes, what Lao Wang said makes sense, for the sake of these thousands of dollars a month, it's not worth taking your life."
"Who in the entire Shibei District doesn't know that our old workshop is haunted, forget it, don't talk about it, there are still children over there"
While several older employees were talking, their eyes drifted like Chu Lin and the fat man.
"Brother Lin, those big men over there are talking about children and children, are you talking about the two of us" The fat man deliberately lowered several decibels in his loud voice and said to Chu Lin.
"Fatty, you're asking everyone at this volume, not me" Chu Lin said helplessly with a smile.
Seeing that the fat man was speechless and covered his mouth, the "big man" on the opposite side came over and said with a smile: "Young man, if there is a more suitable place, don't go to the machinery factory." Recently, another one died in the factory, and they were all smashed into meatloaf, and the little apprentice who followed the class was about the same age as you, and his pants were wet with fright. ”
Chu Lin replied politely: "The eldest brother has the kindness of the younger brother, but this company is indeed a place that I am more satisfied with."
Seeing this, the "big man" couldn't say anything, so he had to say stupidly: "The young man is really hot, it's okay, go to our factory to be righteous and evil."
After a few casual words, everyone got out of the car and walked in the direction of the factory. The subway entrance is not very far from the factory, and it takes more than 10 minutes to walk, the fat man helped Chu Lin carry a suitcase and followed behind and said: "Brother Lin, do a good job after you go in, you have nothing to talk to me on the phone often, I will wait for you to come back outside, and I will wait for many years." As he spoke, he made a very firm expression to Chu Lin.
Chu Lin was already numb to the fat man's humor, so he had to cooperate: "If my brother hasn't come out in 3 years, you can find someone to marry, don't mistake yourself." Then he patted the fat man's round shoulder.
The "big guys" on the side couldn't help but look at them with disdain when they heard their conversation.
"It's here, it's here, you go back, fatty, keep in touch, you can come to me when you're free, or I'll go to you, it's okay. After Chu Lin saw the company's gate appear in his field of vision, he turned around and said lightly to the fat man.
The fat man's heart was sour, he knew that Chu Lin was going to stay in the company this time, so he had to say regretfully: "Brother Lin, you go first, I will come here to find you after I quit my job in a few days." My sister-in-law will be taken care of by me, uh, I forgot, you're a single dog."
"Get out, don't forget to take your Luoyang shovel" Chu Lin said fiercely, and walked into the factory without looking back.
