Siheyuan: Fighting against the beasts under the pressure of the system

May 1958th, .

The backyard of No. 95, Luoguxiang, South of Sijiucheng.

Zhang Minghui slept until the sun was shining on his butt. He slowly opened his eyes and was stunned for a long time before he sat up. Looking out the window, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Whispering quietly.

"Oh, what bad luck! How could such a thing as traveling through time happen to me?"

Zhang Minghui's life in the 21st century is still quite comfortable. His parents are very capable. Taking advantage of the reform and opening up, they earned enough money outside and returned to the small town to live out their retirement life.

He bought several stores in the city to rent out and had enough savings in the bank. With only one son, Zhang Minghui, he did not have to go out to make a living and lived a life of plenty.

When he reached middle age, he could no longer bear the urging of his parents and found a female teacher to marry through a blind date. Not long after they got married, they unexpectedly ended up having a verbal fight.

"I mocked the popular TV series "The Courtyard Man" and criticized all the characters in it."

“I don’t know which great god I angered.”

When he woke up, he found himself in the Love Courtyard, his soul traveled to the body of a person with the same name, and gained his memories from childhood to adulthood.

The father of this person with the same name, Zhang Guoliang, was a level 6 fitter at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

When he came back to get something at night, he found enemy spies lurking in the factory, causing sabotage. After shouting at them loudly, he went forward and started fighting with the spies.

However, he underestimated the enemy spy and his accomplice who were watching, and he was stabbed and seriously injured by the enemy spy shortly after the fight.

The enemy spies were also caught by the security comrades who rushed to the scene after hearing the news. Many of their accomplices were identified during the interrogation and many enemy spies were arrested.

However, Zhang Guoliang could not be saved in the hospital and died heroically.

Afterwards, "the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill reported to the ministry, and after the ministry submitted materials, he was named a martyr by the state."

The mother, Li Meifeng, was already frail and could not bear the cruel blow, and followed her father last month.

Zhang Minghui, who lost both his parents at once, suffered a mental breakdown. After handling the funeral for his parents, he suddenly fell ill and was suffering from anxiety.

The next night he fell ill and died in the house. His body was taken over by a person of the same name in the 21st century.

Alas, thinking of this, Zhang Minghui couldn't help rubbing his eyes and sighed.

"This family is so miserable. There is no one to take care of them in the yard. If Zhang Minghui's soul hadn't traveled through time, the Zhang family would have been extinct."

It has been more than half a month since I came to 58.

After Zhang Minghui took over this body, he found that his illness had been cured without him noticing. However, the original owner was too thin, so he still had to eat more good tonic food.

During this period, Zhang Minghui prayed to gods and various immortals every day.

I hope to go back to the 21st century and live an ordinary life, or if not, at least have a golden finger.

But more than half a month passed and not even a single hair appeared. In desperation, Zhang Minghui could only find ways to adapt to the current society and try hard to survive.

Fortunately, after my father’s death, the factory gave him 500 yuan in compensation.

"There is also a 15 yuan subsidy every month, and some living bills, which is enough to support Zhang Minghui's life. This subsidy will last until Zhang Minghui takes over when he is 16 years old."

The subdistrict office awarded the Zhang family a martyr certificate.

"Home of Gloriousness" was hung outside. If it weren't for this sign, the beasts in the yard would have pounced on it like hungry wolves.

"These days, many people are waiting to be wiped out!"

This made Zhang Minghui feel completely at ease. Having the identity of a martyr's family member was much better than most people.

There is also a formal worker waiting to inherit the property, which means that they are better off than most ordinary people. In this era, they can live their lives in peace.

.......

Just when Zhang Minghui put on his clothes and prepared to go to the field.

Suddenly there was a buzzing sound in my head, and then a voice sounded, as if it was talking in my ear.

“系统正式启动，倒计时1分钟。59、58、57、56、55.....”

Hearing this voice, Zhang Minghui immediately jumped up excitedly and was so excited that he spoke incoherently.

"It's developed, it's developed, there's a system, it's all set, good days are coming."

Zhang Minghui was so excited that he lay down on the bed, clasped his hands together, and thanked all the gods.

Soon, a minute passed, and the voice that excited Zhang Minghui rang out again.

"System officially launched: Host Zhang Minghui, male, 14 years old, height 165cm, weight 78kg, no skills, junior high school education."

"Now releasing the first primary task, expose Yi Zhonghai's hypocrisy in public (the number of viewers must not be less than 15, the difficulty level is high)."

"Second, beat Liu Haizhong violently in public (the number of spectators must not be less than 15, high difficulty level)."

"Three, slap Jia Zhang in public. (The number of viewers must not be less than 15, the difficulty is low) Choose one of the three tasks and complete it within one month."

"Complete the task and you will be rewarded with 200 yuan in cash and your physical fitness will be enhanced. Failure will result in the loss of one of your body organs as punishment."

Fuck! Zhang Minghui stood up and shouted excitedly.

"How can there be a system like yours? Other systems have space, various rewards, and no penalties. Why is there a penalty for failure in yours?"

"Aren't you discriminating and treating people differently?"

"Ding Dong, the host's feedback has been received. Once the task is released, it cannot be changed. I hope the host can complete the task as soon as possible."

"System, OK, OK, I will complete the task as soon as possible and live up to the system's high expectations."

"Then the system master, you have to give me a novice gift pack, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death and I won't be able to complete the task you gave me."

Zhang Minghui smiled flatteringly and negotiated with the system.

"Ding Dong, the host's feedback has been received. A newbie gift package, a miniature space, can be automatically picked up within a three-meter range by mind control."

After he finished speaking, a ring suddenly appeared on the ring finger of his left hand.

"Thank you, Master System. Don't worry, I will make sure everything is arranged for you. I guarantee that the task will be completed on time."

Looking at the ring in his hand, which was gray and inconspicuous, Zhang Minghui tentatively began to control the ring with his mind.

A moment of trance.

Zhang Minghui entered a space in person and looked around carefully for a long time. The space was not big, only about 20 square meters, which was about the same size as the bedroom at home.

No one knew where the light came from in the space. Anyway, Zhang Minghui could see the entire space clearly.

Zhang Minghui silently muttered "go out" and appeared outside in a flash.

"Hehe, life is better now."

After Zhang Minghui grinned foolishly for a while, he suddenly got downstairs and came to the next room. After moving some debris away, he pried open the bricks on the ground and took out a black box.

The box contained all of the Zhang family's assets. His parents left behind more than 1600 yuan in assets, 1500 yuan of which was deposited in the bank, leaving them with more than 100 yuan for living expenses and some gold and silver jewelry.

Including the compensation from the factory, the total assets are now around 2100 yuan, which was a huge sum of money in 58.

There were still some bills inside, but there were only a few. After Zhang Minghui put the box into the space, he felt completely relieved.

"It's okay now. No need to worry about losing the money."

..........

Back in the house, Zhang Minghui was also thinking silently about the various people in the courtyard.

I have been here for more than half a month and found that this is the world of Love in Siheyuan, which is somewhat different from the real world.

I have only been here for a short time, and so far I only know that the characters in the TV series are already living vividly in this world.

The plot of the TV series has not started yet, Jia Dongxu has not died yet, and the current uncle Yi Zhonghai has not yet revealed his hypocritical face and is still relatively fair in his dealings with others.

"Everyone can understand that he is slightly biased towards the Jia family. After all, Jia Dongxu is his apprentice."

"It is simply impossible to expose him in public."

"If you do this mission, you're courting death. Given your prestige and insidiousness, you'll slowly kill yourself."

"As for the second uncle Liu Haizhong, he is broad and fat, and very powerful. It is nonsense for Zhang Minghui, who is so small, to want to beat him up. He is simply courting death."

"There is only hope if we can complete the third task and slap Jia Zhang. The great necromancer Jia Zhang is an old shrew and an annoying character in the courtyard."

"It's just because of face and the care of Uncle Yi Zhonghai that no one bothered with him."

It seems that the only thing I can do is start with her.

"We have to plan it carefully and not act blindly. We have to make sure it's reasonable but not offensive to others."

As I was thinking about it, my stomach started to growl. Oh, I should go out and fill my stomach first!

After closing the door, Zhang Minghui looked around and found the backyard particularly quiet.

Living next door is the deaf old lady Dinghaishenzhen, an elderly widower who was rated as a five-guarantee household by the street.

She has always been taken care of by an auntie, who, relying on her age and seniority, is often jokingly called the ancestor by an uncle.

No one in the yard dared to mess with her for fear of getting into trouble.

Opposite Zhang Minghui's house is Xu Damao's house. Xu Damao has now taken over his father, Xu Fugui's job and become a projectionist at a steel mill.

This is one of the eight major members. After going to the countryside, each village is treated to delicious food and drinks, and when he leaves, he is given various gifts.
