The Human Realm Chapter 32 The Journey of Life

At the dinner table of a certain dream commercial street, one person and one thing were dumbfounded, watching the dream owner eating fragrant rice bowls, and I really wanted to rob him! Dong Sheng felt evil in his heart, "Can you have some interest?" The eyeballs felt his thoughts, and said helplessly.

"Woo woo woo", Dong Sheng is about to cry, watching others eat with relish, it is really one of the tortures in this world, especially the middle-aged people are still eating around, Dong Sheng is looking east and west, swallowing saliva vigorously, I really can't hold back, I had to run to the door of the store and squat, and even lie flat on the ground angrily, let the guests who entered the store step on his body, and I felt like I was dead.

The eyeballs looked at his buried appearance, and they were speechless, directly ignoring him, letting him fend for themselves, running the pupil technique to lock the dream master, paying attention to the situation of the middle-aged man, the eyeball body is a discerning psychic, you can see the true shape of everything in the world, the object locked by it, there is no dead end around the body that is left behind.

The middle-aged man finished eating, played with his mobile phone for a while, and then slowly got up and left, it seemed that he should be looking for a place to take a lunch break, Dongsheng saw him come out, and immediately a salted fish was straightened, turned up from the ground, and followed with resentment in his eyes, "Eat and drink enough and get ready to sleep, right!" Eat and sleep, fat meat chop back! Dongsheng chattered in his mouth, suddenly accelerated and rushed forward, waving his hand at the back of the middle-aged man's head with a big bibag, he thought that the middle-aged man would pass through the same as the person who stepped on him, but he didn't expect a big bibag, directly beat the middle-aged man to a stumble, "bang", it is a good head, "blanch!" Who is the special labor-management! The middle-aged man stood firm and looked around, but no one around him approached at all, and when he found that there was no one around, the middle-aged man instantly panicked, "It's a ghost!" Scald! Then he pulled his legs and ran towards the building.

Seeing this, Dongsheng was also confused, so he hurriedly chased after him, and said, "Brother Yan, why can I hit him?" ”

"Hey, hey", Eyeballs smiled, explaining: "Although this world is his fiction, he himself is also a part of the subject of consciousness, and because you have a dream weaving, and because you are also an intruder, of course you can hit him." ”

"Intruders?" Dongsheng was a little blindsided, "Didn't you just ingest breath?" ”

"Hehe, how can it be so simple, the breath is mainly a signpost to enter other people's dreams, and your current consciousness has been transferred to his sea of consciousness by weaving dreams."

After a pause, his eyes said again: "I heard people say before that everyone has the knowledge of the sea, and it is dark there, and people's dreams are the stars that light up the sea of knowledge, and people's consciousness, after all, there is only one copy, so the dream that everyone shows can only be one place, but the consciousness will return to the body, and when people forget or regenerate the dream, they will change the dream." ”

"I don't understand, I don't know, I give up." Dongsheng said strange things about his new learning.

"I know you don't understand, you just need to remember it, and there is a legend that everyone's sea of knowledge is actually connected, but there is no way to cross, when people's consciousness leaves their own sea of knowledge, it will be lost, or even dissipated, of course, it is a legend, I don't know whether it is true or false." Eyeballs said.

"In that case, let's live well, and test something on the edge of danger every day." Dongsheng chased after the middle-aged man and said casually.

"It is human nature to push the old and expand the new, it is inevitable, and the legend also said that there are great horrors and great opportunities in the real sea of knowledge!" Eyeballs said playfully.

"Oh, not interested."

"Tsk."

Dongsheng finally caught up with the middle-aged man, he was complaining to a man who was also wearing a suit, he was beaten in broad daylight, and the man who looked like a middle-aged colleague laughed at him for working overtime and having hysteria, "Really, Brother Wei, I almost made my head numb just now, but there is no one around, it's not a ghost, what else can it be?" ”

"Okay, the supervisor has been arranging for you to work overtime recently, I know you are working hard, when this project is completed, you can take a vacation." The man named Brother Wei said.

"I ......", the middle-aged man still wanted to explain, but when he thought of being able to take a break, he still stopped arguing, after all, he didn't rest, and it was worse than a cow or a horse.

The two ended the conversation, walked back to the company, each went back to the workstation to prepare for a lunch break, the middle-aged man sat down and looked at the time, half past twelve, there is still a while, you can take a nap, turn the mobile phone to silent,

The middle-aged man took a blanket and draped it, and lay down on his workstation to start his lunch break.

Seeing that he began to take a nap, Dongsheng was a little speechless, "Can you still sleep in this dream?" ”

"It's just that the main consciousness has the illusion of taking a lunch break, but in fact, his consciousness has been resting." Eyeballs said casually.

"Okay", responded, Dong Sheng felt too bored, next time he won't come to other people's dreams, it's really boring, it's better to smell Hao Kaixin's fragrance, Dong Sheng complained in his heart, and lay down directly on the floor next to the middle-aged man, there was a carpet on the ground, and he didn't feel stumbling when he lay down, looking at the ceiling, Dong Sheng sighed, he didn't think he could take a nap in other people's dreams.

Just when Dongsheng was about to fall asleep, the sound of the mobile phone vibrating sounded, "buzz", the vibration interrupted the rhythm of the middle-aged man who was about to fall asleep, he picked up the mobile phone irritably and looked at the screen, a "Dad" word, displayed on the screen, the middle-aged man frowned, a little helpless, got up and walked towards the corridor, the mobile phone continued to vibrate, the middle-aged man had no intention of connecting it in advance, he knew that his father would not hang up, after all, according to his understanding, his father would not hang up if he did not call the voice reminder and no one answered, he would not hang up, With no fear, he walked into the corridor with a relaxed demeanor, pressed the answer button, and was about to listen to his father's nagging, "Hey", and said, "What's the matter, Dad, I'm very busy, long story short." ”

"Dongdong, it's Mom." A woman's voice came from the mobile phone in her ear, and there was a faint hint of crying, "What's wrong Mom, how do you use Dad's mobile phone?" Hearing his mother's voice, the middle-aged man felt a little strange.

"Your dad had a heart attack and is now being rescued, Dong Dong, you said that if your dad has three long and two short, how can I live, woo...... Woo....... ”

Listening to the crying sound on the phone, the man with a nickname was also panicked, "Mom, don't worry, I'll ask for leave and come back immediately, and I'll be there tomorrow!" ”

"Well, will it affect your work, aren't you usually criticized by the leader when you answer the phone? Will the leader be unhappy if he asks for leave? The woman said hesitantly.

"Mom, don't worry, I am responsible for most of the content of this project, and I haven't taken a vacation for a long time, and I can apply for a vacation after finishing the follow-up work this afternoon, and I will be back by car tomorrow." The middle-aged man said.

"Well, okay, then you pay attention to safety on the road, you and I are in the central hospital, you can come back and come directly." Listening to the middle-aged man's words on the other end of the phone, he also relaxed his tone.

"Well, okay, I'll hang up first, and I'll call you when I leave."

Hanging up the phone, the middle-aged man's face was ugly, although it was indeed as he said, but when he thought of his supervisor, his scalp was a little numb, "Hey, let's finish this afternoon's work first, and then let's talk about it." ”

After being called by this phone, the middle-aged man lost his sleepiness, began to turn on the computer, busy with work, with the middle-aged selfless work, time passed slowly, and the quiet room also with the end of the lunch break, gradually busy, and returned to the tense and cramped atmosphere when the winter students first came.

Of course, it was everyone else who was nervous and cramped, Dongsheng was still lying in the old position, sitting and watching the clouds rise and fall, lying down and being raised and fallen by his feet, with an expression on his face that I was integrated with the carpet, and after a while, he made a slight snoring sound, "Heh, I really fell asleep", his eyes chuckled, and he didn't wake him up, anchoring the middle-aged man, and he didn't know what to do.

The middle-aged man has been sitting at the workstation, going out to the toilet halfway, only tapping on the computer screen, the light outside the glass curtain wall is getting less and less, until the faint sunset, people wake up, today's day is about to leave, the night will fall, the outdoor world began to be covered by the night, but it is difficult to hide the light from the curtain wall, announcing the overture to the human conquest of the night.

The middle-aged man's studio was not affected by the arrival of night, but because of the night, the indoor lights appeared brighter, "overtime" is a necessary skill for every white-collar worker, and if you want to survive under this steel monster, overtime is a skill that must be learned.

Someone once praised: "Ninety-nine six is the blessing of the world, and zero-zero-seven is the bible of the world!" ”

A middle-aged man named Liang Dong is a loyal supporter of this sentence, and because of this, he was able to take up most of the work in this project and become the supervisor's henchman.

"Whew~", exhaled a breath, the middle-aged man finally finished the finishing work of the project before nine o'clock, and now he only needs to hand over this information to the supervisor's desk, and he can apply for a leave of absence.

Liang Dong drank half a cup of cold coffee, put down the cup and picked up the information, and walked to the leader's office at the end of the corridor.

Walking through the corridor to the end, standing in front of the door with the nameplate written on the director, hearing a voice inside, Liang Dong did not knock on the door, but waited quietly outside the door, and the voice from the door clearly came into his ears, "Why can't you take a vacation!" The company's labor contract writes that the 9-to-5 double rest is legal! A young voice asked angrily.

After a while, a gloomy voice sounded, "Xiao Wang, young people should work more, study more, and exercise themselves, and don't always think about eating, drinking, and having fun." ”

"Director Zhang, I think it is necessary for me to correct you, my appeal is to have a normal rest, not your set of statements that distort the facts, when I should work, I will naturally work hard." The young voice said.

"Hehe, it's good, it's a good thing that young people are vibrant." A somewhat gloomy voice complimented him, and then said, "Then let me ask you, have you finished the project for your group last week?" ”

"It's not ...... yet, but that project will take at least three weeks to ......." The young voice argued, but was interrupted by a gloomy voice before he could finish speaking, "Okay, you don't need to explain, your explanation is just a disguise of your lack of ability." ”

After a pause, a somber voice asked, "Do you know how much time it takes to work on such a small project when I'm your age?" ”

"I ......." The young voice was a little choosy.

"Two days! I only need two days, and I'm alone, you are in a group of four, and I gave you a week, how much did you do? Fifty percent? Eighty percent? Ninety percent? ”

"Hehe, I read Li Wei's report today, and you have only done 30 percent!"

"Bang!" It was the sound of palms slapping on the table, "What qualifications do you have to talk about rest?" Who qualifies to talk about holidays? Do you have that ability? ”

After the gloomy voice finished speaking, the young voice did not sound again, and after a while, another gloomy voice came out, "Now, get out of my office!" Your group's project didn't make 70% progress tonight! Tomorrow we're going to pack up your stuff and fuck off! ”

After a while, the door of the office was opened, and a young man with a red face who was about to cry walked out, he glanced at Liang Dong who was guarding the door, and left quickly, "It turned out to be him", Liang Dong knew that this young man was an intern in the company, and he had only come to the company for a long time, and he encouraged most of the newcomers to ask the company to return to the normal work system. How do I get a new car? How to buy a house?

The director is not happy, we can have a good life? The most important thing is where to earn money without overtime, employees can work overtime to rest assured that leaders can get off work, and you see that the supervisor didn't get off work today, and he also accompanied us to work overtime, Liang Dong thought about this in his heart, and knocked lightly on the door three times.

"Enter!" His familiar gloomy tone rang out in the room.

Push open the door and walk into the office, a large space, a leather business sofa, a pot-bellied fifty-year-old balding man, sitting behind a huge desk, a whole set of tea sets on the desk, complete self-circulating water flow, the entire desk packaging a small bridge flowing water style.

"Oh, it's Liang Dong, what's the matter?" There is a rare trace of satisfaction in the gloomy tone of the bald man, he likes Liang Dong very much, this kid is obedient, let him do whatever he wants, never complain about no vacation, and take the initiative to apply for overtime, which is simply his blessing.

"Hehe", Liang Dong squeezed out a smile on his face and said: "Director, I finished the finishing work of the big project you told me, this is the final information." ”

Put the thick information in his hand in front of the fat bald man, ten stubby fingers, began to flip through the information, and said while looking at it: "Yes, yes, I am very satisfied with your ability, in such a short time, and to achieve this level, the old man in the company is your best." ”

"Where is it, the main thing is that it is better to be led by the supervisor, without the careful guidance of the supervisor, how can I be Liang Dong now." Liang Dong hurriedly flattered.

Thousands of wear sycophants do not wear, although the praise is very straightforward, but Director Zhang is very useful, praise is too good, Director Zhang will suspect that he wants to sit in his place, Director Zhang is very satisfied with the information in his hand, thinking that he can rely on this project, at the end of the year to find a junior to buy a suite for a new car, I am very happy, and even think of a woman I have been thinking about, the body is a burst of heat, I can't help but stretch out my fishy tongue, lick the red lips.

Director Zhang put down the information and found that Liang Dong was still standing there, a little puzzled, so he said, "Liang Dong, do you have anything else?" If it's okay, go back to the workstation first.,Sort out the investigation report you gave last time.,It's 0:00 tonight.,Get off work early.。 You've been working hard lately, too. ”

"Director, there's one more thing." Liang Dong hesitated.

"Oh? What's up? Because the project is doing well, I can feel comfortable again at the end of the year, Director Zhang asked very happily.

"It's just ......, I want to take a break, my dad is sick, I want to go back and see." After Liang Dong finished speaking, he stood there a little cramped.

After listening to his words, Director Zhang, who was originally in a happy mood, frowned, what he hated the most was that the people below were on vacation, and the gadget surnamed Wang was not sensible, and you Liang Dong didn't understand it either?

Frowning and staring at Liang Dong who was standing there, Director Zhang's mood that had just become beautiful was not beautiful at all.

"Ahem", Director Zhang cleared his throat, "Xiaoliang, you are a junior I am very optimistic about, your father has a minor illness, can't you let the rest of your family take care of it?" Now is a critical period, you have taken a leave of absence, and no one else in the project has taken a sabbatical, what do you make other colleagues think? ”

Liang Dong stood there a little restrainedly, the supervisor's words were like fish bones stuck in his throat, so that he couldn't open his mouth to refute, he was silent for a while, Xu didn't speak again, the supervisor must be driving people, Liang Dong with the last glimmer of hope, opened his mouth and said: "Director......, the project should be fine, most of this project is done by me, and I have done the rest of the finishing work, and other colleagues should have no opinions." Liang Dong's voice trembled a little, and it seemed that he was nervous, and this was the first time he retorted to the director.

"Oh?" Director Zhang glanced at him playfully, "Listening to what you say, you have the most credit and contribution to this project, so you mean that everyone else in the project is a parasite, and you are the most capable!" The gloomy voice was a little sharp at the end.

The sharp voice pierced Liang Dong's eardrums, making him tremble a little, "That's not what I meant, Director, you misunderstood!" I just want to go home and see my dad, and I haven't taken a ...... off work for two months for this project. Liang Dong's voice became quieter and quieter.

"Two months?" Director Zhang said with some disdain: "Do you know how long I worked overtime for a big project in the company when I was young?" Without waiting for Liang Dong to answer, Director Zhang said again: "A whole year!" This year, I worked every day from morning to 12 o'clock at night, until the end of the project, and a month later, I only took a day off, and I was also evaluated by the previous supervisor as a little diligent, lazy, and still need to work hard! You've only been working for two months in a row, so why are you embarrassed to take a vacation in advance? ”

Director Zhang's voice made Liang Dong fall into an ice cave, he knew that most of the time off was over, and it might even affect the supervisor's good impression of him, Liang Dong hurriedly bent down and said: "Director, I'm sorry, I didn't think it through, I bothered you, and I ask you to forgive me for ......." ”

Director Zhang looked at Liang Dong who was whispering in front of him, and knew that he finally understood his good intentions, if he just let Liang Dong take a leave of absence, wouldn't everyone else have the same example to take a break, the most important thing is that Liang Dong will leave, what if there is any problem with Party A? Rely on your own relatives who are arranged in the project?

Coming back to his senses, Director Zhang looked at Liang Dong, who was still there bent over his waist, and his tone was a little looser, and said: "That's it, you are also an old man in the company, there is no credit and hard work, next weekend, take a day off and go home to see your family, don't say that I don't talk about feelings, don't take an example!" ”

"Thank you, Director, thank you, Director!" Liang Dong felt that the supervisor was simply a bodhisattva, and with such an attitude, he finally gave himself a leave of absence, although according to the company's contract, the compensatory leave was to make up for all the hours occupied.

After all, it's common sense that there is no overtime pay for overtime, what? You say that there must be overtime pay? Do you still want to go to work?

Director Zhang looked at the eyes, and almost knelt down to thank his Liang Dong, his mood became happy again, and he waved his hand, like driving away flies everywhere, "Go down, remember to write five fake notes, this time you will be considered to be on leave, and half of your salary will be deducted." ”

Hearing Director Zhang's final conclusion on closing the coffin, Liang Dong quickly nodded his head, exited the supervisor's office, and gently closed the door after going out.

Liang Dong had a happy expression on his face, just like his wife was pregnant, but unfortunately he didn't have a wife, let alone a child, and even if his wife was pregnant, it must be his? Liang Dong is thirty-seven years old, he is a college student from the countryside, and he wants his parents to live a good life, so he took out a loan to buy a house in the urban area, plus decoration, he spent a lot of money, and after taking his parents to the urban area, he found a job in the provincial capital.

After all, the salary here is much higher than in the city, so he can pay off the loan and have a little surplus money, and he is very satisfied with this life.

Liang Dong couldn't help but think in his heart, thank you to the company! Thanks to the Director! Thanks to the people who created all this, he even thanked him for working overtime, so that he could work hard to show his ability in the company, and there was a strong human touch hidden under this seemingly ruthless system. Liang Dong's heart was full of gratitude, although this holiday meeting was postponed for a week, but it didn't matter, the result was good!

With gratitude for the better world, Liang Dong walked in the corridor and began to think about the future, he now lacks nothing materially, only a woman who can fill his empty spirit, and a woman who has lost his physical needs, this woman must have a good figure, she doesn't need to look too good, she looks good, it is best to be similar to the secretary of the public relations department, "hey, hey, hey" Thinking of the OL of the public relations department, Liang Dong was itchy for a while, and the steps under his feet were more firm, he muttered, "In the tenth year of class, I can save enough money, and then, Find a nice girlfriend and get married! ”

Clenched his fists and waved, adding a boost to his motivation, Liang Dong walked into the studio and began to complete the work tasks assigned by the leader just now, striving to get off work at 0:00.

Full of passion and vitality, life will only get sweeter and sweeter.
