The long road to immortality is missing you

"Xi Yuan, last time the boss arranged for you to do the report analysis, how did you do?" Chen Liu, a female colleague in the office, was wearing a coat, holding a cup of hot milk tea in her left hand, and asked Xi Yuan's computer desk. road.

Xi Yuan fluttered his hands on the keyboard, staring intently at the computer screen in front of him, and said: "I'm doing it now, there's still a little bit left, it'll be over soon."

Chen Liu glanced at the computer screen in front of Xi Yuan, and saw the screen full of numbers, and felt that it was a waste of time to look at it, so she immediately looked away.

"Really? Great, after that, what are your plans?" Chen Liu asked.

"Of course I went home and rested!" Xi Yuan temporarily stopped his hands flying on the keyboard, stood up, stretched himself, and said happily: "This is the last report of the year before. After that, I will be on vacation!"

Hearing this, Chen Liu raised her eyebrows and said, "In this case, then the novel "The Long Road to Immortals" that I recommended to you a while ago..."

Xi Yuan quickly waved his hands, and said, "Old girl, don't tell me any more. You talk about me every day, and your ears are getting calloused. Isn't it just a cannon fodder male supporting role with the same name as me in the book? There are too many people with the same name in the world..."

Chen Liu took a sip of milk tea and said, "It's not just for this reason, that book is very popular recently. I strongly recommend you to read it, it's very shocking! Especially the ancient love between Lan Jian and Lin Jinchu, alas, it's a tragedy The ending. I lay in bed in the middle of the night, and when I saw the finale, the pillow was wet from crying..."

Xi Yuan stroked his forehead, sat down again, continued to do report analysis, and said helplessly: "This kind of text is only loved by little girls like you, and you let me, a big man, read this kind of text. arts?"

Chen Liu burst out laughing, and said, "Xi Yuan, we have been classmates for ten years now, and now we work in the same company. I don't know your personality yet? Just let me tell you the story, absolutely. It’s not as good as seeing it yourself…”

"Okay, okay, I've convinced you. I'll watch it on the train when I go home during the Chinese New Year."

Xi Yuan said helplessly, typed the last number on the computer, then closed the computer, stood up, and said in his heart: "Anyway, I have to take the train for more than ten hours, so I can just pass the time casually. "

When Chen Liu heard the words, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said happily, "Really? Then you must look carefully!"

"Yeah." Xi Yuan agreed, and at the same time tidied up his desk, stuffed a bunch of documents into his black shoulder bag, and finally stuffed the computer into it.

The originally shriveled black bags on both shoulders instantly swelled up. Xi Yuan put on his coat, tied the backpack chain, and asked Chen Liu who was still standing there: "Aren't you going? It's already time to get off work now."

Chen Liu seemed to have just reacted, nodded quickly and said: "Oh yes, look at my memory!" Looking around in the office, he said: "The others have really left, then wait a moment , I'm going to get the bag, let's go together."

Xi Yuan nodded, and walked to the door with his bag on his back. About ten minutes later, the two walked out of the company gate together.

As soon as he stepped out of the company gate, the cold wind hit his face, Xi Yuan couldn't help shivering slightly.

It was already January, and there were only four days left until the New Year's Eve.Since their company was close to the city center, even though it was dark at this time, there was still a constant flow of people and traffic.

Tomorrow, I will go to work one more day, I will have my annual leave in the afternoon, and I can go home by car the next morning, Xi Yuan is also a little happy when he thinks so.

"Sister, let's go to the noodle shop across the way to eat a bowl of noodles before going back?" Xi Yuan was just a little hungry at this time, so he suggested.

"Okay." Chen Liu had no objection, and then the two walked into the noodle shop side by side.

Half an hour later, both of them had eaten and drank enough, and stood on the side of the road again.

"Xi Yuan, are you going back to your little dormitory today?" Chen Liu asked suddenly.

"That's right." Xi Yuan looked at her inexplicably, and said, "Where else can I go if I don't go back there?"

Chen Liu nodded, put his hands into his coat pockets, and said, "Okay then, be careful yourself, I'll go back first."

"Well, old girl, you should also be careful." Xi Yuan said, suddenly remembered an important matter, and hurriedly said: "It's so late, and the place where you live is still very remote, why don't I take you back ?”

Chen Liu smiled, with his hands still in his jacket pockets, and said, "No need, just be careful, see you tomorrow."

Xi Yuan looked at Chen Liu's figure walking in another direction alone, and thought in his heart: "It's so dark, she won't have any accidents, right?"

He then shook his head again, to get rid of this ominous thought in his mind, and said in his heart: "It's getting late, I don't want to think about it, go back quickly."

Immediately, Xi Yuan walked towards the bus stop.As soon as he reached the platform, a bus happened to come.

Four or ten minutes later, Xi Yuan stood at the gate of the old community where he lived.

It was cold and windy, and it was pitch black all around.There is not even a street light, and few people pass by.Several three-story buildings were neatly arranged, standing in the dark night.

Xi Yuan has long been used to the silence here, there is nothing he can do, only the house here is the cheapest in the city, and it is also convenient for him to commute to get off work.

Xi Yuan walked towards the northernmost building, took out his mobile phone, and turned on the light. Although the light was very weak, he wasn't too scared.

Walking to the door of the building, he gently stretched out his hand and pushed open the dilapidated door and stepped up the steps.

Xi Yuan's footsteps were very light, but they were still extremely loud in this silent corridor.

A few minutes later, Xi Yuan stood at the door of his house on the top floor.He reached into his coat pocket and took out the key, and turned it in the lock a few times, but the door opened slightly before he turned a few times.

"Huh? Did I forget to lock the door before I left?" Xi Yuan was surprised in his heart, but he didn't think much about it.Not to mention forgetting to lock the door, even if you forget to close the door, the possibility of a thief entering the room is very small.

Xi Yuan walked in casually, closed the door, and pressed the light switch in the living room next to the door.

The light flickered a few times, and then went out again with a "click".

Xi Yuan felt a little strange, and pressed the switch up and down again, but this time, the light didn't even blink.

"It seems that this is another power outage." Xi Yuan sighed, but he was used to it, turned on the light of the mobile phone again, went to the bedroom, put down the backpack, packed a few clothes, and then walked to the bathroom.

"Tomorrow is the last day of work before the year, so let's take a bath." Xi Yuan thought to himself.

He tried the water first, and after finding that the water supply system in the bathroom was still intact, he safely locked the bathroom door.

The window was open, and the cold wind poured into the room through the wide open window. Xi Yuan, who was wearing only a single coat, flinched and closed the window.

Holding the rain shower head in one hand, he continued to turn on the water until hot water came out.

Xi Yuan is actually a little afraid of water.When he was three or four years old, his parents took him to swim. He felt it was very novel at first, and had a great time in the swimming pool.But later, he swam to the deep water area by himself, and he couldn't step on the bottom. For some reason, a panic surged in his heart, and he sank straight into the water.

At that time, he only felt that water was pouring into his mouth and nose, he couldn't breathe, and his consciousness gradually dissipated.As for how he was rescued in the end, he really couldn't remember.

Since then, he has developed a deep fear of water, and he will feel a sense of suffocation after soaking in the water for a long time.And he doesn't like to take too long when taking a bath.

Xi Yuan removed the clothes on his body, adjusted the water again, picked up the rain shower head, and the hot water flowed through his body, giving him a short-term relief from the exhaustion of the day.

In the dark night, one can still feel the heat gradually pervading the entire narrow space.At this time, Xi Yuan slightly squinted his eyes, and his mind had already wandered away.

"I don't know what kind of novel "The Long Road to Immortals" that Chen Liu is chasing madly is. I have listened to her nagging for more than half a year, and I will read it when I am bored on the train the day after tomorrow." Xi Yuan thought to himself. .

"It seems that there is a person named Lan Jian in the book. Among the many characters in the book, Chen Liu likes him the most. It seems that he is the hero? Well, the little girl now is just a fictional character. Why are you so obsessed with it? "

Thinking of this, Xi Yuan couldn't help curling his lips, feeling that he was done washing, so he turned off the water and put the shower head back to its original place.

The bathroom could still feel the heat. Xi Yuan was just about to look for slippers, but suddenly his eyes were spinning, his heart was extremely stuffy, and he was gradually out of breath.

Xi Yuan was in a bad mood, and this feeling was very similar to when he almost drowned in the swimming pool.Sure enough, it took a long time to wash, so he had to go out quickly to get some fresh air.

As soon as he lifted his foot, the bottom of his foot suddenly slipped. Xi Yuan lost his balance and fell to the ground. His head hit a certain metal object on the ground.

The boredom in his heart hadn't dissipated yet, and he was caught off guard, and Xi Yuan felt an ominous feeling in his heart.

Xi Yuan tried his best to support the floor to get up, but felt that the floor was extremely slippery, and he couldn't stand up after several times.

"Today, I actually want to suffocate to death in this bathroom? It's a pity that I didn't have time to read that book..." Before the last moment, Xi Yuan was thinking about this.

Immediately, the familiar feeling of suffocation surrounded his whole body, and his consciousness gradually dissipated. He couldn't hold on any longer, and fell to the ground, unconscious.
