Chapter 49: Abruptness
As a result, for several months, Chen An never experienced a magical crossing again, and his life gradually returned to the original ordinary trajectory, but a lot of things happened around him.
Lin Hui and Bao Wei both officially resigned shortly after the year, and Lin Hui's resignation was due to the relationship between the postgraduate entrance examination, which everyone knows. But Bao Wei's resignation was very unexpected, and Chen An couldn't help but feel ridiculous after learning the real reason.
Zhou Lingling is pregnant.
That's right, this is the female colleague of the company who Bao Wei secretly developed an underground relationship before.
In January, the two determined the relationship, after the company's annual meeting a year ago, the two went outside to open a room, but did not do a good job of safety measures Bao Wei into the soul, after learning the news of Zhou Lingling's pregnancy, he talked with Zhou Lingling in detail for a night, and finally discussed to the point of marriage, and the development can not be said to be fast.
I heard that the parents of the two families met later, if there is no accident, they will officially get married in a month or two, so Bao Wei can't resign if he wants to.
In the early spring, the company recruited a group of people, both men and women, and the first administrative meeting before the start of work, as the host of Sister Wang made it clear that the company is ready to send several old employees to Pengcheng new company to develop business, wages and welfare subsidies will be greatly improved, if there are interested employees can take the initiative to apply to her.
At that time, Chen An hesitated for a long time, and after the meeting, he found Sister Wang and applied for assignment.
Pengcheng is one of the fastest-growing emerging cities in China, and young people from all over the world go here every day to pursue their dreams and opportunities.
Money, status, women?
For Chen An, who has the mentality of being rich and peaceful, these seem to be too far away from his life.
He went to Pengcheng for only one purpose.
He wanted to try to go to the big city, where maybe there would be something he had been missing.
Chen An's decision was undoubtedly strongly opposed by his mother, but his father had an approving attitude, in his father's eyes, young people should go out to break through, what is it like to stay at home all the time, and there is no vitality of young people at all.
In the end, Chen An left.
He and a few colleagues boarded the southbound high-speed train, and they arrived in Pengcheng a few hours later.
Pengcheng New Company specially sent people to receive a few people, and after arranging accommodation and getting familiar with the new company, it indicated that Chen An's new life was about to begin.
The dormitory arranged by the new company is an old-fashioned building, but the interior decoration is not bad, and everyone has their own room, although the room is not large, but the accommodation environment is relatively good.
Every day, Chen An and a few new expatriates have to promote their business under the leadership of the business manager, and at the same time get familiar with the local traffic roads, because after a month, they will have to be on their own.
The fast pace of life in big cities and the pressure of business competition made it a little difficult for Chen An, who was accustomed to the comfortable life of a small city, to adapt for a while, and unconsciously, he felt like an insignificant little cog in a huge machine, tense his nerves all the time, even on a day off.
Is this what they want to live? Or is it a last resort?
Sometimes wandering alone in the most prosperous commercial street in Pengcheng, looking at the bustling pedestrians around him, he was confused.
My colleague Xiao Xu's pursuit is to make more money while he is young, so that he will have the capital to return to his hometown to buy a house and get married in the future.
The pursuit of colleague Abin is to save enough for the first pot of gold, and strive to find opportunities to start a business and get ahead in the future.
My colleague Xiaoyun's pursuit is to find a husband who has a house and a car in Pengcheng in the future.
Colleague Lao Wang's pursuit is the simplest, he just simply likes the flowers and wine of the big city, and likes to make an appointment with those lonely and empty women.
This is the true reflection of everyone in Chen An's current class.
Is this the life I want?
Chen An asked himself.
No.
Because he can't see the future in such a life, what is the difference between it and his life in his hometown?
Is what he's looking for really here?
Night.
Lying on the bed in the room, Chen An slowly closed his tired eyes.
He told himself that if another year passed and his life remained unchanged, he would return to his hometown.
And yet—
When he opened his eyes, a change occurred.
Because, once again, he has traveled through time and space.
......
Look up at the blue sky, listen to the melodious birdsong of warblers, and surround yourself with lush mountains.
Chen An was barefoot, looking around blankly.
Where am I? Where is this?
In a moment he began to walk slowly down the mountains, constantly looking for traces of human habitation, when he was thirsty he drank a few sips of mountain springs, when he was hungry he picked a few fruits, and when the sun was gradually setting in the west, he finally walked out of the mountains, and even saw the traces of a dirt road in the distance.
There is a road that means that there are people, as long as you follow the road and keep going down, sooner or later Chen An will be able to find traces of people.
When he brushed aside the layers of lush weeds and walked towards the dirt road, he vaguely seemed to hear a noisy human voice in front of him, Chen Anxin was overjoyed, and hurriedly accelerated the speed of his journey, but he didn't expect to see an extremely thrilling picture next.
There were three carriages on the dirt road in the distance, and around the carriage were a group of fierce men armed with steel knives, and they were constantly fighting with the guards protecting the carriage, blood was flying, and screams rang out from time to time, and gradually, the besieging men gradually eliminated most of the guards, and finally killed the few remaining guards who were clinging to the central carriage.
What should I do?
Looking at such a bloody and terrifying scene in front of him, Chen An lay on his stomach in the grass and didn't dare to move, he stared at the front, afraid that the group of robbers would find him.
He reassured himself that he should not be afraid, not afraid, it was none of his business, he just had to hide in the grass and wait for the bandits to leave and he would be safe.
At this time, the robbers killed the last few guards of the carriage, and one of the leader-like men laughed wildly and did not know what he was talking about, and he violently broke through the carriage that the guards were guarding on the verge of death, and dragged out a woman who was screaming and struggling loudly.
The leader seemed to be eager to occupy the woman in front of him, and with a big tear of his big hand, he tore the woman's luxurious clothes into pieces, and then pressed the woman with one hand, and began to untie the belt of his trousers with the other, while the robbers around him were coaxing each other like watching a play.
Suddenly, something flew out of the carriage and hit the bandit leader who was trying to ** the woman outside the car, the leader touched the smashed head, and a cruel smile appeared on his face, he ignored the drag of the woman under him, and directly reached into the carriage and pulled out a little girl who kept slapping him and crying.
Perhaps the woman who was desperately trying to stop him was too much of a hindrance, the bandit leader dragged the woman away, and then he lifted the steel knife, grabbed the little girl's head and faced the woman who kicked the ground, he seemed to be saying something, and in a moment, he raised the steel knife and prepared to cut at the girl's neck.
"Stop—"
This scene made Chen An's eyes crack, and he could no longer care about his own safety, jumped out of the grass and roared angrily.
Chen An's appearance from the sky attracted the attention of all the robbers in front of him, and even the bandit leader who was about to behead the little girl stopped, he looked at Chen An and laughed, and threw away the little girl in his hand, he and his companions around him didn't know what to say, and then all the robbers rushed up to Chen An with bad intentions.
In the face of the murderous robbers in front of him, Chen An's legs began to weaken, and he suddenly began to regret it, why do I want to present this hero, run quickly! I will run quickly! But his legs did not listen to his call at this moment.
“#$%^$#^......”
After a while, a robber had already come to Chen An's approach, he raised his steel knife, and slashed at Chen An with a shout.
At the critical moment, Chen An suddenly sat on the ground with his head covered and sat back, narrowly avoiding the knife that the other party cut at his head.
"......Shh A little bald donkey who doesn't even know martial arts dares to care about our Qingfeng thief's affairs, hehe, it seems that you are really stupid in chanting scriptures, right?!"
The robber spat at Chen An, and the knife pointed at Chen An with a mocking laugh, and soon, he raised the steel knife again and prepared to understand Chen An's life.
The moment the blade slashed at Chen An, the muscle reaction between life and death instinct caused him to quickly roll to the side, dodging the robber's fatal blow again, and the robber's eyes lit up with a smile, and he chased him with a knife with a smile.
One knife, two knives, three knives.
After several knives in succession, the robbers did not hit Chen An, which caused a burst of laughter from the robbers who were watching around.
However, Chen An gradually calmed down after repeatedly dodging the bandits' attacks, and at the same time, a memory in the depths of his mind suddenly awakened, which was the fighting technique that Rachel had taught him.
The robber, who had become annoyed and angry because of the ridicule of his companions, completely threw away the mentality of the game, and he stared at Chen An, and the steel knife in his hand instantly slashed at Chen An twice as fast as just now.
Chen An's body suddenly opened sideways, and when he almost dodged the steel knife, his palm became a knife, and directly slashed at the cartilage of the robber's neck, only to hear a click, and the robber fell down with a look of disbelief covering his neck.
Chen An possessed and picked up the steel knife dropped by the other party, and then looked around at the robbers who had fallen into dead silence around him.
He gripped the steel knife tightly, his heart pounding.
Now, he didn't even think about killing someone.
Now, he has only one thought in his head.
I want to live.
I don't want to die!
"Come on, you sons of bitches!"
