Chapter 1: Driving the Wolf and Devouring the Tiger
"Fuck you!"
Lin Chen, who was standing on the rooftop, leaned forward violently, and the empty wine bottle in his hand was thrown into the endless night in front of him.
Controlling the somewhat detached body to stand slightly, Lin Chen looked down at the bright city night scene at the bottom of his feet, and an invisible anger that seemed to be eternal burned in Lin Chen's chest,
"For the sake of money, I left my hometown and became a cow and a horse"
"For the sake of power, I intrigue and force good people to become prostitutes"
"In vain, I have worked hard for many years, but in the end, my family is ruined because of one sentence"
"It's ridiculous!"
Leaning against the corner of the wall with a curly figure, the self-deprecating and distorted hatred made Lin Chen almost crazy,
Reaching out and grabbing the wine bottle next to him, the curved cap cut through the numb corners of his mouth, and the blood mixed with alcohol poured into his slightly open lips and teeth.
The liquor roared, as if he had a moment of peace, but his consciousness was rendered a little blurred by the alcohol.
Looking at the empty bottle split in two in front of him, his vague consciousness made Lin Chen forget who he should hate.
It seems that he has just gone from having nothing at the beginning to having nothing now.
Staggered up, looking at the crescent moon in the sky, a few puffy clouds rendered by the moonlight pale between the starlight flickered, and every time the unknown star flickered, the light in Lin Chen's pupils would be magnified by a point,
In a trance, Lin Chen seemed to see his life, since he was born in this world, one after another ups and downs, a piece of bitterness, all appeared in front of him with the starlight,
Lin Chen wanted to roar, but his voice was stuck in his throat,
The evening breeze on the roof of the building carried gusts of warmth, stirring the last trace of Lin Chen's thoughts that alcohol devoured Lin Chen.
A stumbling in the fog, the weightlessness of the feet off the ground invaded the body, the wind in the ears became rapid and with a hint of mourning, and the lights in front of him were getting closer and closer.
"Is that the end of it?"
"It's okay, it's not in vain for me Lin Chen to walk in this world in style"
A smile appeared at the corner of Lin Chen's mouth.
...
The former famous entrepreneur in S City passed away yesterday, and yesterday was the entrepreneur's 30th birthday.
There are few words in the news report, and no one even mentions the name, and no one will regret it.
People living in this city still need to continue to live, and a person's departure will not change anything, in the eyes of ordinary people, this is not as important as the meat in the nearby vegetable market has risen by a dollar.
...
As if in a long dream, the consciousness returned to him,
Lin Chen opened his eyes weakly, looking at the somewhat decaying roof beams in front of him, a small spider was attached to the white web at the corner of the beam,
"I'm not dead?" This was Lin Chen's first thought,
"Shouldn't I have died?"
When he was thinking about it, a middle-aged face with a resolute appearance but a little haggard appeared on the side of Lin Chen's vision, and when he saw Lin Chen wake up, the joy on his face passed for a moment, but then it was well hidden.
"This little scourge has woken up"
A yin and yang strange aura on the left with a slightly hoarse female voice came into Lin Chen's ears, Lin Chen wanted to turn his head to find the person who made the sound, but found that he couldn't control this body at all, and his open eyes could only look straight up,
The middle-aged man in front of him also heard this unabashed sarcasm, his calm face suddenly became a little hideous, and when he raised his head suddenly, the middle-aged man looked to the left, and the voice in his mouth became cold.
"Sun Guilian, I respect you as my second brother's wife, if you dare to say that my son Lin Chen is not, don't blame me Lin Yun for turning his face and not recognizing people"
The angry words of the middle-aged man in front of him made the already small room suddenly drop a little warmer.
Suddenly, a peaceful man's voice came from the right side of the room,
"Guilian, you don't have to say a word"
"Big brother, don't you know how badly their family hurt our Lin family?"
Although the woman's words were questioning, the resentment expressed in her words made Lin Chen hear it clearly,
"I know, I know very well, the fourth child is our Lin family after all, his business is our Lin family's business, you are a woman's family, don't talk about it here, you want to call Lin Zhan to tell me"
The middle-aged man's voice on the right was no longer peaceful, and there was a faint anger,
"Hmph"
After a burst of sound from the door, the room seemed to be calm again,
...
I can't see the situation in front of me, but Lin Chen is not a fool, the middle-aged man with a little stubble on his chin in front of him is his father, and the woman who spoke just now should be the wife of his second uncle, as for the other voice, it should be his uncle,
"Lin Chen, this kid is okay, right?"
"Big brother, don't worry, it's going to be fine"
"That's good, you take good care of him, I'll go out first"
"Big Brother Walks Slowly"
Hearing the footsteps in the distance, the middle-aged man in front of Lin Chen, that is, his father, his face also returned to calm, sitting next to him and gently shaking the bed he was lying on, and muttering some words that Lin Chen couldn't understand,
"It's good that you were born, otherwise I would have to go to them desperately with my temperament"
"I wish you could grow up soon, my son"
...
talked a lot, and Lin Chen didn't listen very carefully, but the previous few reprimands really listened to the bottom of his heart.
Although he couldn't move, there was a warm current in Lin Chen's heart, and for a moment, Lin Chen felt that the father in front of him had such a handsome chin,
I seem to be tired of talking,
The voices in the house fell silent, Lin Chen stared blankly at the roof in front of him, a sense of drowsiness came into his mind from nowhere, his vision gradually blurred, and his open eyes slowly closed without obeying,
...
The strange thing is that Lin Chen's consciousness did not dissipate at the moment, but felt more and more sober,
And the scene in front of me is from the tired roof to a pitch black,
"What the hell is going on?"
In his mind, Lin Chen's soul villain sat in the darkness, his brows furrowed slightly, and after thinking about it,
"Goodong~"
A throbbing in the depths of the darkness came suddenly,
Lin Chen's soul villain was instantly startled, and looked into the depths of his consciousness, but he couldn't feel anything,
"Goodong~"
Another throbbing came, strong and irresistible,
Facing the unknown in the depths, his own imagination made Lin Chen feel even more frightened,
Lin Chen, who felt that he was about to be driven crazy, simply put his mind down, vigilant, and cautiously approached the throbbing place,
I didn't go far, and I saw a glimmer of light in the dark Dafang in the distance,
Lin Chen took a few steps closer to the light, and looked fixedly,
The thing that emitted a faint white light in the air was a pale flame, and under the burning white flame, there was a young baby's soul,
"Hey, this can't be the 'master' of this body, right?"
Lin Chen's soul villain cautiously walked to the white flame, and thirty years of life made him subconsciously want to help the soul in front of him,
Slowly squatting down, but the half-stretched hand froze in place,
Lin Chen found that he couldn't help,
Because this soul, which was already very young, was half mutilated!
And the white flame in mid-air seems to be implicated in this young soul, tearing at the soul power of this young soul every moment, as nourishment for the burning of the white flame.
"Who the hell is so vicious, using other people's souls as sacrifices!"
Full of anger filled Lin Chen's soul villain, Lin Chen's almost somewhat deformed soul villain got up and swung a punch at Bai Yan, but Bai Yan didn't seem to exist, let his fist cross, and still continued to burn,
"Ahhhhh!!hh
It's this sense of powerlessness again, how similar it is to the memory of the previous life,
Lin Chen's soul villain almost frantically punched and kicked at the white flame, but the result was still like this,
suddenly
The young soul on the ground moved, looking at Lin Chen's soul under the white flame, it seemed to understand the intention of "Lin Chen", and called softly,
"Lin Chen" stopped his figure, walked to the side of the young soul a little sluggishly, and squatted and watched,
The young soul touched Lin Chen's hand with its remaining left hand, as if to express its gratitude,
The white light in the dark world is brighter,
"You..."
"Bang"
Lin Chen's voice came to an abrupt end with this clear crackling sound,
The young soul turned into a point of light in the sky, floating quietly beside the "forest dust",
Lin Chen became a little sluggish, looking at everything the young soul had done, he was puzzled, why should he say goodbye in such a way?
Feeling the slight glow emitted by the countless points of light around him, he seemed to understand a little,
This is not as liberating as oneself, only by dying, maybe it can be better,
But looking at the points of light rushing towards him in front of him, he felt that he was really a little unable to accept such a gift,
He shook his head in refusal, but the light was still immersed in his soul,
The white flame lost its reason to burn, and the white light was gradually engulfed by the darkness inherent in this world of consciousness, leaving only the soul villain standing in place with clenched fists.
...
I don't know how long it took to sleep, Lin Chen opened his eyes again, the middle-aged man in front of him looked a little tired, but he was still by his side,
Although he knew that he was not his biological father in front of him, what happened when he woke up last time made Lin Chen identify with this father from the bottom of his heart.
Moreover, he is the father of the owner of this body, if nothing else, just for this alone, Lin Chen will also call him a father from the bottom of his heart,
"Don't worry, I will definitely not live up to the rebirth and everything you have given me, take my life, I will find out the person who poisoned you, and let him repay you for the pain you have suffered ten thousand times!"
