The first wrench in the last days

Chapter 2 Buying an Antique Beauty

Mu Xuan is a jobless vagrant, a social youth who has no motivation without a whip behind him.

After entering the university, I fell in love with online novels, and lay in bed in the dark every day.

Sometimes, watching the protagonist's luck against the sky in a book, he shows off his power after picking up a strange stone on the side of the road.

So I imagined that one day I would be able to recognize treasures with blood. Not only did I fall in love with shopping every day, I picked up a lot of stones and kept them. It happened that I picked up a rough emerald stone and sold it for hundreds of dollars. Totally, I picked up a big box of rocks and threw them in the dormitory, but the dormitory aunt caught me cleaning them for a week.

After another period of time, watching the protagonist travel to another world, either jumping off a cliff or being struck by lightning, he wants to jump off the cliff, but unfortunately he is afraid of heights, but fortunately he is not very courageous.

Several roommates also persuaded you not to learn, those are fake, if you jump down, you will not become a fairy, but fall to pieces. When the rescue team finds you in the afternoon, your body will be eaten up by wild beasts. It was also covered with maggots. In short, it was all kinds of scaring and nausea that made him hesitate and give up completely.

A few days ago, I chatted with a netizen who said that he was Qin Shihuang and that he was not dead. He said that he would give 500 yuan to his army to unblock it, and then unify the earth and make him a general. The most important thing is that he actually believed it.

After spending a few hundred yuan to call someone on QQ and being unable to get through for a while, I realized that I was cheated. Fortunately, there is no MLM organization in the school, otherwise this stunned young man must have been scammed around.

Later, when I went home after the summer vacation of my sophomore year, I became a little more silent, and I didn't like going out or crowded places.

Gradually, I talked less and less with my roommates. I just read novels every day, and I didn’t eat every meal. Others like to joke: "Now it’s the bigu stage, and it’s going to be soaring in the daytime soon!"

Mu Xuan just responded with a smile, as if he couldn't see the ridicule of others. It turned out that when he returned home during the summer vacation, he found that his home had been demolished. His parents couldn't stand Mu Xuan lying in bed every day and living a life like a god. , and sometimes they do tricks and don’t live a good life.

Since I read the news on the Internet that the old couple let the child be independent for a period of time, the child got rid of laziness and a lot of other problems, so in order for him to support himself after college, he decided to move.

And the most important thing is not to tell him where to move, saying that he will tell him only after college. With such weird parents and this son is also a genius.

At the beginning, there was no living expenses, and life was too difficult. At the beginning, Mu Xuan could resist starvation by relying on his daily fantasies. Later, the city was about to start construction, and the house was demolished, so he had no choice but to go out and find a summer job. lived for a while.

I met a few like-minded people, but the so-called like-minded people just had to eat at ordinary times. When I settled the wages, I found out that I was only paid a few dozen yuan. When I left, the so-called brothers who had a particularly good relationship with me disappeared. Shadow, on the other hand, they are there for meals, but no one comes when they have something to do.

While lamenting that people's hearts are not ancient, at the same time feeling that he is born extraordinary. Since ancient times, the protagonist was born either auspiciously or unlucky, and he is confident that there will be a great future.

In this way, I went to school later. At this time, my parents paid tuition fees and a little living expenses into the bank card. However, Mu Xuan was used to living a frugal life, so four years passed like this. After four years, he fell into a miserable state. In social life, my parents don’t give me any living expenses, and I rely on my own self-reliance. When I go out to work, I realize that I have nothing.

I don’t have the unparalleled strength and wisdom to work as a security guard, nor do I have a wide network of contacts or close friends to join the officialdom. Applying for a resume to a company is completely random, and I don’t have the perseverance to set up a planting base. I rented a small house, but the door is still broken. , fortunately it is cheaper every month, just buy some vegetables and cook some rice.

But how can life continue to be like this? How can people with dreams be willing to spend their lives in an ordinary way?People can't live without pursuit.

After a month or two, Mu Xuan, who had already run out of food and water, began to think about his future life. He couldn't go on anymore, and he should break away from fantasy. There will be adventures in this world, but what does it have to do with me?

A teacher once said, "In this world, there will be no pies, only discus, and even if it falls, it won't hit you on the head."

What an encouraging word, but Mu Xuan can listen to it to a certain extent. You must know that a young British brother quit drugs to read novels, and novels can't quit.

"Ding ding." A text message came, and Mu Xuan was very excited looking at the text message. Finally, it came. The long-lost interview was still effective, and the same resume was sent to dozens of companies.

In order to give the interviewer a good impression, I went down and cut my hair, and put on hairspray by the way. I looked like a dog, and my steps were a little floating on the road. After all, it was the first interview, and there was a trace of anticipation in the tension.

I hurried all the way for fear of being late and leaving a bad impression. I arrived at the interview location of the company. The company is very close. I took a bus and got off and walked a few hundred meters. ?I touched my pocket, and tightened my pocket.

Along the way, I feel that everyone is smiling at me, and I am just a lucky man, and I feel very cute when I look at everyone.

I went to the interview company and waited in line. I saw four or five people in front of me. I asked them, and they entered by calling their names. I couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. I asked the people who had finished the interview what questions they had. However, the dejected interviewers were not in the mood to answer him. , drooping his head, silently walked past him.

"The next Mu Xuan. Is Mu Xuan here?"

"Hi, here we come." Mu Xuan hurriedly stood up, thinking about how the protagonist in the novels he read before faced the interview easily, and calmed down a little.

After entering the door, he looked at the three people sitting in front of him, expressionless, "Mu Xuan, right?"

"It's me, Mu Xuan, a graduate of xx University." Mu Xuan's heart was pounding. In addition, this is the first interview. The more I want to calm down, the harder it is to calm down.

"How much do you know about the products produced by our company?"

"What?" Mu Xuan panicked a little. He just submitted his resume casually, and the ghost knows your company. This is a disaster.

Just like this, I asked three questions in a row. When the other party shook his head, he went out with his head downcast like before. The rest of them saw that they failed, and I don’t know why they felt a shallow smile from them. meaning.

Along the way, I was thinking about the questions asked by the other party, complaining and complaining. Why didn’t I think of changing the subject? I walked to an antique market unknowingly. There were few people in the antique market and the shops were deserted. These antiques basically belonged to that kind of It will not open in March, but it will be open for three years.

Thinking that since he is here, let’s take a stroll. In fact, he still hasn’t given up his desire for adventures in his heart. He thinks that if he changes his life, he will definitely not fail like this. Everyone has a king in his heart, and he looks forward to his return!

I bumped into a lot of unremarkable things along the way, and wanted to buy them, but found that I had no money at all. As the saying goes, the more unremarkable things might be peerless treasures, or they might contain heaven-defying medicines.

As I was walking, I came across a shop, Qiyuan Pavilion, and I couldn’t see anyone in it. I was thinking that it was not afraid of someone stealing it. There was a brass mirror, which looked very big. I was thinking that I might want to take it away. It’s hard to walk, and there’s nothing special about looking at other things, but passing by the counter, I found a door panel under the counter, red wooden paint, single door, and some patterns engraved on the copper ring, I want to take a closer look, "Cough cough."

As if caught stealing, he hurriedly stretched out his hands, indicating that he didn't take anything.

An old man with white hair and a long beard looked at Mu Xuan: "What do you want to buy, sir?"

Mu Xuan knew that he had no money, so he smiled awkwardly: "No, no, I won't buy it, I'll just take a look... just take a look."

"What I have here are the items of the Qin Dynasty, ah. You must know that the Qi Practitioner of the Qin Dynasty is..." The old man looked at him with a smile. When he heard that the Qi Practitioner Mu Xuan was suddenly excited, he was wondering if he should get a few more items.

But after touching my pocket, I thought I might as well forget it. If I am a poor person, just look at it. It is impossible to buy it.

"My place is called Qiyuan Pavilion. Natural treasures are given to those who are destined, but I can only take one." It seems that I have seen through Mu Xuan's thoughts.

"Fate? What is fate?" Mu Xuan wanted to get more after hearing the first half of the sentence, but when he saw the old man's half-smile, he always felt that the other party saw through him and then changed the subject.

The old man was mysterious, looking at him, he was just cheerful, with a look of slap on his face.

"It's money in your pocket, it doesn't matter if it's predestined or not, it's good," he thought, watching it, and taking it away when he saw which one was more expensive, and he didn't worry about being jumped by a fairy, anyway, he had no money.

After browsing for a long time, I saw a lot of good things, but the strange thing is that no matter how small it is, I can't pick it up, as if there is a mysterious pulling force pulling against me.

Thinking of someone with predestined relationship, the problem of reading novels has recurred, and I feel that I am a person with predestined relationship, there must be a treasure waiting to be discovered by myself.

Thinking about how soon I would ascend to heaven and become a god, become a god king, and win fairies, it would be like reaching the pinnacle of my life. I was so excited that I ignored the strange antique shop, even though I tried to pull and pull everything with the greatest strength. .The final result is that they cannot be pulled or lifted, and a traction force opposes their own strength.

Mu Xuan, who was a little depressed, felt that the old man was fooling him. He must have been inlaid underneath. He thought with some self-deprecation: "There are no adventures in this world. Maybe I should give up those immature ideas. Alas, I'd better find a job." , and then find a wife."

The old man shook his head, and picked up a big pipe casually, which was something that Mu Xuan had never brought up. The old man's eyes seemed to say, "I didn't lie to you. Look, don't you pick it up?" After that, the old man left and went to Walk upstairs slowly.

Mu Xuan thought about it for a long time, but he didn't make up his mind to worship the old man as his teacher. Who knows if he is a liar.

Mu Xuan thought for a moment about what was left untouched. There was a door on the floor, but he didn't mind it and said, "What kind of adventure can a broken door bring?"

But he still touched the door panel with disbelief, trying to take off some paint or the door knocker, pulled the door knocker, and the door moved, and Yue Dong was so excited.

After dragging the door panel and pulling it out, there were still a few footprints on it, and the end hidden under the cabinet was covered with dust, which was carefully wiped clean. Mu Xuan, who had experienced disappointment, was looking forward to some good luck for himself.

"No matter, let's drag it back first." Mu Xuan was very happy. He hummed and didn't care about other people's weird looks. He was exhausted along the way and wanted to find a tow truck. He looked at the money in his pocket and said, forget it. Just work harder if you work hard. .

When I got home, I took a sip of water and discussed with the landlord to remove the leaky door, and then install this newer-looking door. The landlord agreed.

I asked my neighbor, Uncle Zhao, to help remove the previous door, and it happened that this door was quite suitable to be installed on it. The more I looked at it, the more I felt it was perfect. The growling stomach woke up Mu Xuan, who was in a slut, "Eat something, um, go out first Go out and eat something good."

Open the door, a gust of wind blows, Mu Xuan seems to have some sand in his eyes, rubbing while walking outside the door
　Many years later, Mu Xuan accidentally returned to the earth, and met the old man who fooled himself through time travel, and was fooling other people

　　Mu Xuan asked: "Why did you let me travel back then?"

　　The old man stroked his beard, smiled mysteriously, and said, "I'm from a headhunting company, and someone offered a high price to hunt you away."

　　Mu Xuan: "An old monster with [-] million points, I don't believe a single punctuation."

　　Old man: "..."
