A small bird looking for food hesitated for a long time on top of Cheng An's head, and finally left without attacking the delicious oil cell combinations on his body.
Cheng An suddenly woke up and found that he was lying on a path near the village, his body covered with foul-smelling mud.
After hesitating for a moment, he found that no one was around, so he jumped directly into the stream on the roadside and washed his whole body several times. Then he put on wet clothes and walked under the sun that had not yet risen.
Leave yourself alone.
Now there's bad news and good news.
The good news is that not only is my body not disabled, but it feels like it has been completely transformed. The scars from my childhood are all gone. Even the slight cervical spondylosis that I had before has been completely cured. My whole body is full of strength.
, extremely energetic.
The bad news is that Cheng An doesn't know where he is now, and his phone is out of battery and he can't see the time or map.
He finally fainted last night, how did he get down the mountain?
After about an hour, the road started to become popular.
Cheng An quickly stopped a kind-hearted woman who was riding a scooter to buy groceries: "Hello, aunt, I would like to ask, where is this place? Is it close to Baichi Mountain?"
"Baichi Mountain? It's right here. This is Baichi Village. In the early years, it was the Baichi Mountain Mine, and later it was changed into a village."
"Gone? Mine?"
Cheng An was confused and looked up at this very prosperous mountain village with at least a thousand households. It was unbelievable.
It's impossible. It turned into a mountain village several years ago. So where was I last night? Could it be that what I experienced last night was a dream?
He pinched his face, and the triangular pyramid suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
This startled Cheng An, but when he saw that the aunt didn't react at all, he felt relieved. It seemed that only he, the holder of this "coordinate" could see it.
The coordinates at this time were like a holographic simulation projection, showing a transparent state of gold. As soon as Cheng An thought of it, it would automatically appear in his sight and rotate slowly.
Among them, two sides reveal numbers.
One is the countdown, currently 17:20:15 is left, and the time is decreasing by the second.
There is another side, which is a series of symbols that look like garbled characters. The only thing that can be understood is the number "1" separated by a line.
The remaining two sides are blank.
"This countdown is probably the opening time of the Star Gate? That is, in the early hours of tonight, I will be able to enter that dream world!" Cheng An reasonably speculated.
As for the string of garbled characters, he decided to search the Internet for information about universal walking after returning to see if he could find any clues.
"Auntie, do you know where the nearest bus stop is?" Cheng An asked.
"Did the young man get separated from his friends?"
"Oh, Auntie, you are so attentive, you can see it."
"Haha, this kid is so smart. Come up here and I'll take you there."
"Ah, there's no need for this..."
"Why are you so shy? I haven't seen my aunt in her fifties. Hurry up and get in the car!"
Rural women have a simple character, so Cheng An couldn't refuse the kindness, so he got on the back seat of the electric donkey.
It was a winding road for about two kilometers before we saw the bus station.
After thanking her aunt and saying goodbye reluctantly, Cheng An looked at the stop sign.
Baichi Village Station.
The Baichi Mountain that I had just climbed yesterday turned into the Baichi Village that had been renovated ten years ago. This gave Cheng An a sense of illusion, but at the same time he was even more curious about the Star Gate.
The more mysterious and unknown something is, the more desirable it is.
The journey was uneventful, and when we arrived at the subway station, I finally charged up my phone.
As soon as I turned on the phone, a bunch of missed calls popped up.
The dialer is very simple, each of his parents has seven or eight phone numbers, two phone numbers for the operator and an unknown advertiser, one for Cheng Yuyi, one phone number, and a text message with the content "Brother, are you there?"
"Forehead……"
This seems to be the sister of the original owner.
Cheng An didn't pay much attention, but quickly opened NetEase and searched for the keywords Haicheng, Baichi Mountain.
After a short delay, a few sparse news items popped up. The top title was "Solve the housing difficulties and poor housing problems of villagers, create a benchmark for the city, and create a cultural white pool!"
What a cultural idiot!
Cheng An rolled his eyes secretly. The date of this news was twelve years ago.
"In this case, my mountaineering tools, hiss, and the borrowed bicycle are still on the mountain. Now I will lose money, at least more than a thousand yuan!"
This sudden blow made Cheng An, who was already not wealthy, even worse, and was heartbroken beyond measure.
Then, he searched for "universal walking", "dream world" and other contents.
But it's still the same, there's a lot of content, but it's all about introducing "dream experiences", the content is complicated and numerous, and no really useful information can be found.
Even at a glance, several well-known forums on the Internet, such as ‘Tieba’, ‘Dahongshu’, ‘Chichi Community’, etc., have all opened corresponding topic columns.
The content in it was extremely popular, and various short essays were flying all over the place. Cheng An opened it and read a few articles, and knew that he would not be able to find much useful information in it.
These short compositions are so watery that they are even divided into categories. There are template writings with controversial topics such as The Boss, Return of the God of War, etc., sometimes mixed with some critical Xun-style and Zhu-style articles. It can be said that a hundred flowers are blooming, competing for the strange and beautiful.
.
Not only is the space plentiful and extensive, but the content is also large and empty.
Even if the gods come, they still can't find anything useful from so much junk information.
"It seems that I still have to go there first before I can know more."
After wandering all the way, when I returned to school, it was already half past twelve noon.
There is a sea of people in front of the school, and the private cars on the roadside are already jammed, and it is all up to the traffic police to guide them;
Countless students gathered in the square of Haicheng University. They carried their bags and quilts and walked to the university they dreamed of;
The school's welcoming ceremony was not inferior either. Seniors from the upper grades came out one after another, some helped with the luggage, and many campus clubs came to 'recruit new students'. It was very lively.
"September 10th, I almost forgot, today is the first day of school for freshmen."
Cheng An suddenly realized.
At this time, the phone rang again, the caller ID was "Cheng Yuyi", Cheng An clicked to answer.
"Hey, brother, are you busy?" A gentle and crisp female voice came from the phone.
"No, um, what's the matter?"
Cheng An tried his best to keep his tone as calm as possible.
He didn't want his family to be suspicious.
What happened last night made Cheng An believe that the police would come to his door sooner or later.
And a traceable, transparent and simple family is undoubtedly a protective umbrella.
"School starts today and my parents have to go to work. I originally agreed that you would pick me up, but I can't contact you..."
Cheng Yuyi's voice on the phone sounded a little aggrieved, which made people feel the urge to feel pity.
Cheng An was stunned for a moment. He didn't even notice that there was a younger sister who also applied for the same school.
"Well, I didn't sleep well last night. I forgot, where are you?" He casually found an excuse to excuse himself.
There was a fawning sound on the phone, like a chicken pecking rice: "I came in at the school gate, under the big library, next to the big pillar on the left. My things are too heavy."
Through the crowd, Cheng An quickly found Cheng Yuyi.
This girl is highly recognizable and her appearance is extremely outstanding among the crowd. She is wearing a clean white shirt and a light yellow skirt. Her white shoes are spotless. She timidly reveals a section of her white and slender calves, exuding the unique youthful and sweet scent of a girl.
Because she was pretty enough, several boys gathered around her and playfully tried to help her carry her suitcase, but they were all rejected.
This girl guarded her property as if she were guarding food: three huge gray-black trolley cases, each of which was more than one meter high and bulging.
It's hard to imagine that a thin girl like her could transport these things here alone.
"Cheng An! This way!"
As soon as she saw Cheng An, the girl waved her hands excitedly. When Cheng An walked over, she hugged Cheng An's arm excitedly.
When the boys surrounding him saw this situation, they all dispersed helplessly and went looking for other cute school girls as targets.
Perhaps due to the deep affection for family in the memory of the original owner, Cheng An looked at Cheng Yuyi as his own sister and did not resent her coquettishness.
Of course, he had dated quite a few "sisters" in the past, but that kind of coquettishness from a sister was generally called a fever, which was completely different.
Cheng An complained in his heart, and then said: "Give me your luggage, and I will take you to the dormitory to check in first."
"Okay, this one is a bit heavy, let me help you get one... um."
Before Cheng Yuyi could finish his words, he saw Cheng An grabbing three heavy suitcases with one hand and carrying them directly on his shoulders, looking very relaxed.
"Hey, when did you become so strong?" Cheng Yuyi said in surprise.
“The exercise was quite effective.”
Cheng An gave a half-truth and half-false reply.
It is true that his physical fitness is quite good, but when it comes to being able to carry something close to 150 kilograms with one hand, he is still far from it.
But thanks to last night's experience, my physical fitness has been greatly improved.
Cheng An feels that his current strength is comparable to that of professional strength athletes.
However, there is no change in appearance. The muscles are obvious but not exaggerated. It can be described as miraculous.
Girls' dormitories generally do not allow such young boys to enter. Fortunately, the dormitory aunt is reasonable. Since school starts today, girls cannot carry so many heavy objects alone, so Cheng An signed her name and went up.
.
Cheng Yuyi can handle such small things as making the bed by himself, so Cheng An can't get involved.
The other three little girls in the dormitory pulled Cheng Yuyi with smiles and chattered without knowing what they were talking about, making her face turn red. Girls are always familiar with each other.
A father in the same dormitory sent his daughter to school, but he couldn't get involved in the "internal affairs" of the girls' dormitory, so he took Cheng An to smoke in the corridor.
"Thank you, uncle. I don't smoke. It's best not to smoke here." Cheng An declined.
"Oh, I was negligent. Haha, young people have a bright future. They have taken care of their future affairs so early."
The middle-aged man gave Cheng An a thumbs up on the surface, but in fact his eyes were full of vigilance.
Cheng An knew that he was overthinking, so he smiled and said, "You have misunderstood. I am her brother, and I am also studying at Hainan University. My family is busy and I can't get away."
"Haha, it turns out that with two top students in one subject, your family is amazing!"
"You are so flattering."
Cheng An said a few polite words.
After a while, Cheng Yuyi was pretty busy inside, so he ran out and said, "Brother, I can do it. If you are busy, why don't you leave first?"
"Okay, spend more time with your classmates today. If you need anything, call me."
"……Uh-huh."
She nodded and sent Cheng An to the stairs.
"Goodbye." Cheng Yuyi waved his hand.
Cheng An nodded, and just as he reached the corner of the stairs, he noticed from the corner of his eye that Cheng Yuyi was still standing at the top of the stairs looking at him eagerly.
His chest suddenly tightened, as if it had been scratched by something, and an indescribable smell, like spilled soy sauce, garlic, bean paste, etc., filled his heart.
His mouth and nose were sore, his vision was hazy, and an impulse arose, and he shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Cheng Yuyi."
"Eh? What's wrong?" Cheng Yuyi was startled.
He opened his mouth, closed it, then opened it again.
After repeating this several times, he muttered: "Do you have anything else to say to me?"
"Ah? No more."
"Okay, okay, then I'm leaving."
"OK."
As a result, Cheng An said this, but his feet seemed to have grown roots, piercing deeply into the ground.
He looked at her for a long time, then took three steps in succession and ran up to her.
"Wait a minute and I'll give you some money."
He rummaged in his pocket, took out the nine hundred yuan that was crumpled last night, and stuffed it into his sister's hand without any explanation.
"Brother, I don't need it. My parents have given me living expenses." Cheng Yuyi hurriedly declined.
"Here you go, just take it. I'm outside and have a part-time job. I don't have enough money. Tell me." His pronunciation was slightly slow, as if he suddenly suffered from a stutter.
Seeing his tough attitude, Cheng Yuyi was confused and could only accept it.
"Then, okay, thank you, brother."
"Okay, nothing happens anymore, then I'm leaving, I really am leaving."
"Well, brother, please be careful on the road."
After going downstairs, Cheng An quickly left the dormitory building, and the indescribable feeling in his heart gradually calmed down.
In the dark, he could feel that some kind of shackles had been removed from his body, and his mind was extremely lively.
"Is this his last farewell to this world?"
Cheng An smiled, picked up the phone, sent a message to his parents each to say they were safe, and then wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Then, he walked happily towards his dormitory.
Putting aside the past and present affairs, he will no longer be a human being in the future.
Then I stopped at the corner and was stopped by several boys with short hair.
It was the same sophomores who were pestering Cheng Yuyi for her phone number at the school gate.
"I'm going to tell you the truth, brother has fallen in love with your girlfriend, so you should be more sensible and make a price." A yellow guy took the lead to stand up.
The rest of the people gathered around aggressively, blocking the view of passers-by.
Coincidentally, Fatty, who had been fighting in the midnight woods, was among them. When he saw Cheng An, the resentment on his face turned into an expression of revenge.
"Hey."
Cheng An smiled.
Does Haicheng University still have something like this?
"There are too many people here, and we will be punished if we fight. Let's go to the gymnasium to meet Zhenzhang." Cheng An took the lead and pointed in the direction of the playground.
It actually frightened these people.
Huang Mao said angrily: "You are really shameless. Let's go. I won't beat you until you kneel down and call me daddy today!"
A group of seven or eight people went to the gymnasium in a hurry.
ten minutes later.
Cheng An, the only one standing in the audience, knelt down and patted Huang Mao's head: "Do you still want to call me daddy?"
With a yellow hair, a bruised nose and a swollen face, his nose was full of snot and tears: "Dad! You will be my dad from now on! Dad, I was wrong, I won't dare to do it next time!"
"Haha, not bad, really good."
Cheng An stood up, took a look at the rolling winter melons on the ground, and nodded with satisfaction.
"I didn't expect that I am quite talented in fighting."
He left the gym on his own, and the seven or eight crying boys on the ground stopped screaming at the same time. You looked at me, I looked at you, and no one spoke first.
"What are you looking at! Get out of here, you trash!" Huang Mao got up and walked away first in anger.
After a while, Cheng An walked downstairs to the dormitory while wiping away the dust on his clothes from the beating he had just made.
Just as he was about to go up, several classmates came down to meet him. When they saw him, they greeted him: "Cheng An, why are you going? You are also going to welcome the new students? Why are your clothes so dirty?"
Cheng An smiled and said: "It's okay, I just wiped it on the street lamp. Why are you going?"
"Oh, there is a special lecture on universal walking in the afternoon, and the class teacher has informed us to attend."
"I'm just trying to make up the numbers, because I'm afraid I'll lose face if I'm not popular enough."
"Let's go, let's go, otherwise we will be late, and the class teacher's face will be given to her. What if she is one of the defending teachers in the future?"
"Let's go, bye."
"Are you going? I heard that the speaker is Bai Fumei, the daughter of the Nancheng Real Estate Group!" There was another classmate who didn't forget to say hello to him before leaving.
