Chapter 1: A Snowy Night (I)
A famous writer once said: Everyone's life can be rewritten......
-----------------------------------
Monday, November 2, 1987.
In the howling wind, God also came to join in the fun, and scattered small snowflakes were scattered in the sky. This year's snow came a little early, and the temperature was much cooler than usual.
The city of Baicheng in Binhai Province was already immersed in the silence of the night, but the printing house in Chengguan Street was brightly lit, and seven or eight workers were working overtime in full swing to bind the meeting materials needed by the district education bureau by early tomorrow morning.
Zhuang Fujin, the director of the factory, looked up at the Polaris wall clock on the wall while beating his waist, and the time was already more than two o'clock in the morning. Seeing that the work was nearing completion, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Yangyang, I've been busy all night, don't do it!" Let's go back and rest early. ”
Geng Wenyang, a tall thin guy who was busy tying up finished products in the corner, straightened up neatly and said, "Uncle Zhuang, I'm not tired." ”
Zhuang Fujin smiled: "You are still young, not as good as us adults." Be obedient and go back to rest. ”
Geng Wenyang was honest by nature, and when he saw that Zhuang Fujin didn't seem to be polite, he nodded obediently and said, "Then I'll go back, Uncle Zhuang." ”
"Go back, tomorrow...... Oh! No! Already today. Zhuang Fujin smiled: "Sleep well, just come back in the afternoon." ”
"Hey!" Geng Wenyang agreed, carefully removed the two blue sleeves on his arms, and put them in his locker with the labor protection gloves.
After changing out of his work clothes and greeting several other workers and masters one by one, he spread his two long legs, slipped out of the printing house on the dilapidated golden deer bicycle and plunged into the snowy night.
After turning a few corners and coming to Baicheng Street, Geng Wenyang straightened up and looked at it, the street was already white, and the snow suddenly fell tightly.
In the early hours of winter, the streets are deserted, and the street lights are even more pitiful. The road was slippery in the snow, and Geng Wenyang had to ride slowly carefully, saving him from accidentally falling in vain.
He looked at the snowy winter night from afar, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's been more than a week since I came to this world, and it's the first time I've caught up with snow." I don't know what my wife and son look like now in 2022? ”
It turned out that Geng Wenyang at this time, although his body was a 16-year-old temporary worker in a printing factory in the late 80s, his soul was an engineer from more than 30 years later to middle-aged.
Coincidentally, he is also called Geng Wenyang, but the two of them are not in the same province, and they are both post-70s. Fortunately, Geng Wenyang is still in a familiar urban environment after the crossing. If he had traveled to the countryside, he would have really been blind if he had no experience of rural life in his previous life.
But even after crossing over to the city, Geng Wenyang is still distraught. Because he almost broke his head, he couldn't figure it out and couldn't understand the reason for his crossing.
He has never encountered a car accident, nor a plane crash, nor has he suffered any fatal illness, anyway, he has no chance to encounter all the common online passages.
Just when he was on a business trip, he closed his eyes on the plane and took a nap, and when he woke up again, he traveled to 1987 and became a temporary worker with only a new Chinese degree.
It's incredibly easy to traverse!
The former senior technician of a provincial industrial design institute, a dignified senior engineer, suddenly became a temporary worker who only joined the work after finishing junior high school, so that Geng Wenyang couldn't think of a reason.
What's even more tragic is that Geng Wenyang, who he possessed in this life, is dull by nature, and not only did he not go to high school after graduating from junior high school, but he was also unwilling to go to vocational high school and technical school. His parents begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother to find a relationship, so he was placed in a street printing factory as a temporary worker, so that he could earn some money to support himself.
It is said that knowledge changes fate, even if he wants to change his fate by taking the university entrance examination at this time, he does not even have the qualifications to sign up, and the belly of knowledge he mastered in his previous life has now become a decoration.
Temporary workers who only get more than 20 yuan a month have a bleak life, and they can even conclude that there is basically no future at all. If it weren't for the possession, being able to turn into a regular worker should be the biggest ideal and luxury of the original Geng Wenyang's life.
With such a bad start, the current Geng Wenyang is not in a hurry, so is it strange?
While he was thinking, the bicycle turned right and drove into the empty and lonely East Street. As soon as I turned into the intersection, I suddenly heard a woman's hoarse cry in front of me: "Help! Save ......"
In the quiet of the night, the woman's cry for help was very harsh, Geng Wenyang looked up hurriedly, and saw that under the faint light of the street lamp, a man could be seen not far away and forcibly held down a woman in the snow on the side of the road to misbehave.
Whether in his previous life or in this life, Geng Wenyang is a person with a full sense of justice. At this moment, when he saw someone who dared to bully women and children in the night, he was already enthusiastic.
"Stop!" Before he could finish speaking, he jumped off the bicycle and pointed at the man and shouted angrily, "Let her go!" ”
The man turned his head to look at him, and saw that it was a tall, thin boy of fifteen or sixteen years old who had not yet grown up. The guy was strong and didn't take Geng Wenyang seriously, and warned disdainfully: "Little rabbit, don't meddle in your business, get out of here!" ”
Geng Wenyang took off the thick cotton gloves and held them in his hand, and shouted loudly while slowly leaning over: "If you dare to do bad things, I will dare to take care of it!" ”
"Little rabbit, are you impatient to die?" As he spoke, the man stood up and took out a sharp dagger from his arms, shook it in his hand and threatened: "If you don't get out, Lao Tzu will kill you!" ”
In the late 80s, public order was relatively poor, and vicious cases occurred from time to time. Cases of gangsters possessing firearms are not uncommon, let alone carrying a knife.
Seeing that the other party showed the murder weapon, Geng Wenyang was not panicked, and with a chuckle, he pulled out a short iron rod with a pattern from the stick sleeve behind his back. He took the iron rod and swished a few sticks in his hand, pointed at the other party and said, "What's the matter, do you want to play tricks with me?" ”
The connoisseur stretched out his hand to know if there was one, and the man saw Geng Wenyang playing with the short stick slippery, and knew that he was a fierce opponent. But he was reluctant to give up the prey in his hand easily, so he had the courage to wave his dagger a few times and howled: "Don't go any further, I'm not welcome to go any further!" ”
Geng Wenyang saw that he was inward-looking, and waved his stick vigorously: "Then let me see your methods, come on!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he strode straight at the man.
There is a way that when the two armies meet, the brave wins, the man didn't expect Geng Wenyang to dare to attack suddenly, and he was a little frightened when he saw him rushing forward violently.
The courage of the two sides comes first, and once they lose their courage, they also lose their courage.
The man was cowardly, where did he dare to fight one-on-one with Geng Wenyang, and he had to throw away the prey in his hand at the moment, and he turned his head and panicked into the darkness and disappeared.
