Chapter 1: A Ridiculous Dream

Next Chapter

Donghai City was a little cold at night, and Yu Sheng shrunk his shoulders, and he inhaled a sharp cold air in his nose and was very uncomfortable.

On the way home after evening self-study, the situation was the same as before.

On the slope, the old woman who picks up garbage is still pulling her garbage truck up at this time, and all kinds of garbage and waste on the garbage truck emit a sour and smelly smell, and passers-by and students cover their noses and stay away.

Yu Sheng rubbed his nose, quickened his steps and walked over, then bent down and stretched out his arms behind the garbage cart to push it.

On the top, the old woman stopped the cart, turned around and smiled, and said to the rest of her life: "Little brother, well, you are the eighty-first to help my old woman push this dirty and smelly garbage, kindness is inherent, persistence is not easy, you and I are fateful, give you a gift!"

Yu Sheng shook his head and said, "Grandma, it's just a gesture, I don't want any gifts." ”

An elderly mother-in-law who picks up garbage for a living must have given him a thank you gift of eight yuan and ten yuan in change, and her life is so difficult, it is better to save this money for breakfast.

The old woman smiled and reached out and handed him something, a small green object in her palm.

"I picked up this ring from the garbage, it doesn't seem to be worth much, I'm useless to keep it, give it to you as a toy." ”

The rest of my life was going to refuse, but the turquoise color was very tempting, and I thought that even if I didn't want it, I would just take a look and give it back to her.

After taking the ring, it is turquoise and transparent, reflecting a strange color in the street lamp.

Yu Sheng pinched two fingers, looked up at the street lamp above his head and closed one eye to glance, but he didn't see anything strange, after all, he didn't understand the difference between jade and glass.

After looking at it for a while, he tried it on his left index finger, which didn't look too big, but it fit very well on his index finger, as if it was custom-made for the size of his index finger.

The ring was a little cold, and there seemed to be a cold breath drilling into his finger, and Yu Sheng reached out to twist it, trying to turn the ring and take it off, but suddenly, the ring was like a living leech, and it went straight into the flesh of his finger.

Yu Sheng was startled, and hurriedly twisted it, but it was too late, the ring had completely "drilled" into the finger muscles, without a trace, and there was no place to catch it!

The rest of my life is frightened and strange, what is going on? making science fiction movies or playing magic?

Could it be that the old grandmother was joking with him?

"Grandma......" Yu Sheng just wanted to ask, only to raise his eyes and realize that the old woman and her garbage truck had disappeared without a trace, the front and back of the highway were relatively empty, even if it was to disappear from his eyes, it would take several minutes, strange, the old woman could not fly?

In the midst of the strangeness, the color in Yu Sheng's eyes suddenly dimmed, and in an instant, all the light seemed to dim, and then became green and gloomy.

A few shadows that changed and seemed to float and move in mid-air appeared, and the rest of his life thought he was dazzled, rubbed his eyes and looked at it carefully, those few shadows floating in the air seemed to be people, and they didn't seem to be people, and their heads and faces changed in clarity and blur......

"Hell......"

Yu Sheng screamed in fright, and ran away, but a pair of legs seemed to be as heavy as lead, and he couldn't run!

In the midst of the heart-wrenching struggle, Yu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the bright morning light outside the window, only to find that it was dawn, and then he found that he had a nightmare!

Sitting at the head of the bed and gasping for a while, Yu Sheng wiped his forehead, his forehead was full of cold sweat, looking at the wet palm, the color of the lowest part of the index finger of his left hand seemed to be a little strange "green", as if he was wearing a green jade ring.

When I thought of the "ring", Yu Sheng's heart throbbed inexplicably, didn't the old grandmother give him a ring in that nightmare just now?

I remember that the ring got into the flesh after he put it on the left index finger, and now look at the left index finger, the circle of "green" seems to be natural, and even the muscles are green and transparent.

After groaning for a while, Yu Sheng dipped some saliva and wiped his index finger hard, but the skin was about to fall off, and the color didn't fall off, it didn't seem to be sticky to the color agent or something.

But no matter how strange it is, the rest of his life didn't associate the strange color on his index finger with the things in the nightmare, after all, he was a senior in high school in modern society, and the knowledge he learned told him that ghosts and demons were things that didn't exist in reality.

But it's still strange, the old woman who pushed the garbage cart, the impression in his mind is very clear, since this semester, he almost every night after self-study will meet her on that slope, will help her push the garbage truck to the top of the slope, but how can he touch her in a dream?

As the saying goes, there are dreams only when you think about it day and night, although you meet with the old grandmother almost every day, but for him, it is just a thing that is done on the way from school, he has never taken it to heart, neither day nor night, how can he dream of her?

"For the rest of my life, breakfast is on the table, and there are two hundred yuan on the table, today is your second uncle's fiftieth birthday, you use this money to buy some fruit and go to the second uncle's house, I'm out!"

This is grandma's voice.

For the rest of his life, he and his grandmother were the only two people who depended on each other, his grandfather died early, and his parents died in a car accident when he was in the first year of junior high school for the rest of his life, and the rest of his life can be said to be raised by his grandmother.

Grandma was born in a big family, according to the previous saying is a "big landlord", she has received a good education since she was a child, and she can cook well, and it is because of this craft that she can earn money and pull the rest of her life, but after all, she is still old, her hands and feet are not flexible and unreliable, and she is gradually marginalized by the canteen of the working unit.

Yu Sheng's father had a total of two brothers, and the younger brother Yu Wenhua was a real cultural person, who became a teacher after graduating from university, and later gradually rose to the position of school director and vice principal.

The second aunt of the rest of his life is also a teacher, but although the second uncle and the second aunt are both teachers, but they are quite snobbish, the second uncle was almost the father of the rest of his life to earn money to support, and he got married and bought a house out of all the family's savings at that time, but the second uncle almost cut off contact with the family after marriage, according to the second aunt, the rest of the family was too poor, and the rest of his life rarely went to the second uncle's house after the death of his parents, so he said that his grandmother let him go to the second uncle's birthday, he was resistant.

Yu Sheng answered, put on his clothes and pants and walked out of the bedroom.

Grandma was changing her shoes, and said while burying her head in putting on her shoes: "For the rest of your life, I know you don't want to go to the second uncle's house, you are in your third year of high school this year, and you are about to graduate, your second uncle is the vice principal of your fifth middle school, and he can give you some help, after all, blood is thicker than water, listen to grandma, usually see the second uncle and second aunt have a sweeter mouth, shout more kisses, and don't spend money for a few shouts!"

"Oh......" Yu Sheng replied casually, but when he looked at his grandmother, he suddenly found that there was a "7 days 03:21 minutes 47 seconds" on the milk **, and the seconds behind were counting down in seconds, 46, 45, 44......

What's going on?

Yu Sheng rubbed his eyes and looked at it again, the aperture number on the milk ** was still there, but the time had counted down to 7 days 03:20:04.

Are you dazzled?

Grandma went out after a few more admonitions, and the rest of her life was drinking porridge and eating pickled steamed buns while thinking about the situation just now, and it was estimated that she was still under a lot of pressure and dazzled.

Alas, if he is alone, it is useless, the whole family is not hungry when he eats alone, what do you like, but there is a grandmother who has great expectations for him, this is Yali Mountain!

The rest of his life's grades have always been average, and it's actually embarrassing to be up or down, basically a marginal figure in the eyes of the teacher, and the families who want their son Jackie Chan to point to their children to be admitted to a good university, but the rest of their lives are thinking about what job to find after graduating from high school, at least to reduce the pressure on the elderly grandmother.

But grandma still thinks that she can be admitted to college for the rest of her life, and she can have better development in the future, such as being perfect like his second uncle.

The third year of high school is such an annoying time!

Yu Sheng's home is about a fifteen-minute walk from No. 5 Middle School, and when he goes out after cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, the urban village is almost messy and dirty, and it looks brand new after leaving the village.

The first shop on the street is a fresh fruit store, but the rest of my life rarely enters, there is no extra spare money to spend, usually passing by is a glance from the transparent glass wall, the store is a young girl about twenty years old, very delicate, the rest of my life often peeks at her.

Beautiful girls are always the focus of attention, although the conditions for the rest of his life are not good in all aspects, but it does not prevent him from liking to look at beautiful women, fair ladies and gentlemen.

Today is the first time to step into the fruit shop, after Yu Sheng entered the door, he met the sight of the beautiful female store, the female clerk nodded slightly, and said softly: "Please pick any of them, they are all fresh fruits that have just come in." ”

Yu Sheng blushed inexplicably, and quickly retracted his head and turned to look at the fruit on the shelf.

There were two other customers in the store, one was a middle-aged woman in her thirties, very fat and white, with a perm and a half curls, and shiny jewelry hanging on her fat ears, and she put all the frighteningly expensive imported fruits in her basket, a white Maserati sports car parked outside the fruit store, and a car key with a Martha's logo tied to the purse hanging from the wrist of the middle-aged fat woman.

There is no doubt that this is a rich man.

Another guest is a middle-aged woman who looked and watched, and chose and chosen, the two were about the same age, but one was fat, the other was thin, one picked expensive imported fruits, and the other picked cheap domestic fruits, the difference was obvious at a glance.

Yu Sheng groaned, what kind of fruit should he choose? I am afraid that the second uncle and aunt will look down on the cheap ones, and I am afraid that the two hundred yuan of expensive imported fruits will not be able to buy many portions, and it will not look good if it is less.

"Little brother, what kind of fruit do you want to buy?

While he was hesitating, the voice of a female clerk came to his ears.

Yu Sheng turned his head to see that the female clerk was staring at him with a pair of crystal clear eyes, and he couldn't help but feel another beat in his heart, and replied with a stutter: "I...... I bought it to give it away......"

"Oh, then I'll help you pick and choose......" The female clerk took an empty basket and said while taking the fruit: "I'll match you with a fruit basket, match it, it's beautiful and not expensive, what you want to give away is a good look!"

The female clerk was really understanding, and she could see that he was shy and shy, so she took the initiative to tell him, and the two middle-aged women didn't need it, they picked what kind of people loved.

"That'...... Okay, that's it...... Just pick two hundred dollars. Yu Sheng still couldn't help but take out the two hundred yuan, and of course he also exposed his "bottom".

The female clerk smiled and said while picking the fruit, "Not two hundred, one hundred and four is enough." ”

Looking at her expression, it is estimated that she has seen through his bottom and knows that he only has 200 yuan on him, maybe he will have 60 left in the car to buy water and snacks or something.

The heart is good, but the woman who is too smart and careful as a hair is also scary.

For the rest of his life, he didn't like others to see through his bottom, and he didn't like others to see through and enter his inner world.

At that moment, the moment when Yu Sheng stared at the female clerk, the vision appeared again!

A circle of time numbers also appeared on the female clerk's head: "24090 days 11:38:27 seconds", and the seconds are also counting down, "26", "25", "24"......
