Strive for Science

Wu Wei's colleagues stared blankly at Shen Chang'an's ten fingers flying on the keyboard, and then watched him tell them confidently that there are no ghosts in the company, the production line often breaks down, and the computer suddenly turns on and off automatically. There are wrong instructions, or loopholes.

"Our branch has just opened, why would someone maliciously attack our work system?" The accountant who was frightened and crying by the sudden pop-up of a computer video wondered, "What's the benefit of spending so much energy?"

"The head office only sent technicians over a week ago to repair and maintain the system and production line, and they didn't find any problems." The general manager said, "If it wasn't for this, the company wouldn't have so many rumors about hauntings."

Shen Changan poked Ding Yang's arm: "Take out the work notebook."

"Ah?" Ding Yang was admiring the bewildered looks of these company employees, when he heard what Shen Changan said, he couldn't react for a while.

"There is a clear and complete record of the work process, so we can give an explanation to the rumors that are raging outside." Shen Chang'an glanced over the crowd, and found that the young man who was working at the desk just now was also standing behind the crowd. Be grateful.

Young people are still more energetic, Shen Changan stretched out his hand and dragged Wu Wei over, "They are all young people, look at their enthusiasm for work."

Wu Wei looked at Shen Chang'an suspiciously, he was already the youngest employee in the office area of ​​the company, no one was younger than him.

"Okay." Seeing Wu Wei's blank face, Shen Chang'an didn't want to argue with him anymore, "For your sake, I won't ask you to charge for this loophole inspection and repair work, and I will ask your general manager later Just sign my work record."

"Wait." Wu Wei finally came to his senses, and pulled Shen Changan to the balcony outside, "Changan, why do you come to work in such a small place?"

"It's pretty good here, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the people are simple and simple." Shen Changan leaned on the balcony and smiled, "What's more, don't you also work here?"

"Can I compare with you?" Before Shen Chang'an suddenly left, Wu Wei always thought that Chang'an would stay in the school for graduate studies. At that time, several old professors with graduate students in the school liked Shen Chang'an very much, and even said that they would take Shen Chang'an in. for students.When Shen Changan just left, many classmates were spreading rumors that Shen Changan went to work in a secret department, but he did not expect to be doing such an insignificant job in such a small city.

Shen Changan turned around and looked at the green plants outside the office building, without speaking.

"Chang'an, with your ability, you shouldn't stay in such a small place." In school, Chang'an was very serious in class, never skipped class, and participated in several research projects. In the eyes of everyone, he deserved it Excellent model students.

"Is it that bastard Cao Jin?" Wu Wei thought more and more, "His family is powerful and powerful, and he has always disliked you. He must have punished you."

"Don't think too much, although Cao Jin intends to trick me, but..." Shen Changan looked up at the somewhat gloomy sky, "It is my own choice to work here, and it has nothing to do with others."

"You don't need to explain, I know you must have been wronged a lot." Wu Wei was angry and sympathetic at the same time, and slapped hard on the balcony guardrail, "It's amazing to have power at home!"

"That... is still somewhat remarkable." Shen Changan replied honestly.

Wu Wei: "..."

When speaking harshly, you don't have to be so honest.

Cao Jin's family conditions are good, and the family conditions are not bad, and he can be regarded as a man of influence in the school, but there is another Shen Chang'an who dominates him everywhere except for his family background, so even though the two are in the same major and the same class, Even the girl Cao Jin liked confessed to Chang'an. Although Chang'an politely rejected the girl, Cao Jin regarded Chang'an as an enemy.

All the students in the class knew that Changan’s parents were dead, so they often took some small programming jobs outside the school. Cao Jin often laughed at Shen Changan’s poverty. In the big classroom of class, he was beaten to the point of crying father and mother.

That incident was a big one, Cao Jin's parents came to put pressure on the school, but fortunately, the school was fair and withstood the pressure from Cao's family, and saved Shen Chang'an, but lowered the scholarship level by one level.

After this incident, when Cao Jin saw Shen Changan, he took a detour and only dared to curse behind his back.So he suspected that the reason why Shen Chang'an's job after graduation was so poor was that the Cao family had tampered with it.

"What's your plan in the future, stay in this small city, or go to a big city?" Seeing that Shen Chang'an didn't want to mention the old things in the school, Wu Wei had no choice but to stop the topic, "With your ability, go No matter where you are, you won’t be able to find a way out.”

Shen Changan shook his head: "Let's not talk about me, let's talk about yourself. Although you were not a top student in school, you still had good learning ability. How did you get transferred here?"

This kind of job transfer is not much different from the nature of distribution to the frontier.

"I don't know, since you left, or since that brat swapped your thesis with mine, my luck has gotten worse and worse." Wu Wei's face was full of vicissitudes, and talking about the past was full of blood and tears "At the beginning, I was admitted by a Fortune [-] company. When I was about to sign the contract, acute appendicitis broke out and I had to go to the hospital for surgery. This good opportunity slipped away. Later, I received offers from several big companies. There are always various accidents at the end of the interview invitation. A few months ago, I was finally admitted by this biological company. I was targeted by the leader for no reason. It happened that a branch was about to be opened here, so I was assigned here. "

"Sometimes I even wonder if I suffered retribution for subcontracting the thesis back then." Wu Wei smiled wryly, "It's not peaceful to come here. There will be problems with the production line for a while, and there will be ghosts for a while. Bian also called and scolded me, saying that I was not doing my job properly.”

After hearing Wu Wei's bitter experience, Shen Chang'an felt a little sympathetic to him, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder: "Well, it's very lucky, I've been unlucky for so long, and I won't be unlucky again in the future."

"Thank you for your good words." Wu Wei's smile was still a bit bitter, and he didn't take Shen Chang'an's comforting words to heart. He took a deep breath, "Actually, you are right, although there are no big cities here. It’s bustling, but colleagues get along very well, and there aren’t too many intrigues, so it’s good to be able to settle down here.”

It's just that with Chang'an's ability, it's too wasteful to stay here.

Wu Wei didn't say this sentence, he knew that Shen Chang'an was a very determined person, what others said was useless to what he made up his mind to.

Among friends, the most important thing is to support each other's decisions.

"We can play and sing together when we have time." Wu Wei put his hands on Shen Changan's shoulders, "Not to mention, the food here in Wuming City is delicious."

"Chang'an." Ding Yang stood a few steps away from the two of them, knocked on the wall, and after attracting their attention, "The process of surveying the site has been written, and we can go to the general manager to sign."

"Okay." Shen Changan smiled at Wu Wei, "I know that there is a cold pot fish restaurant that is very delicious. I will take you there when the weekend comes."

"Okay." Wu Wei nodded towards Ding Yang, "I'll take you to the general manager to sign."

As soon as the three of them walked out, they saw a young man in Taoist robes brought in by the security guard at the gate downstairs, "Mr. Wang, the master has arrived."

General Manager Wang looked at the young Taoist priest who came to the door, and then at the two staff members of the civilian service department who came out with Wu Wei, with an embarrassed expression.

The sudden encounter between theology and science is always so unexpected.The other employees in the office also reacted, and everyone was a little embarrassed. The staff of the civilian service department, who had been hiding everything, had just found out that there was a problem with their company's operating system. Here came another young master who claimed to be the descendant of the Dragon and Tiger Gate. Isn't this Talk about theology in front of science?

The Zhang Tianshi they invited a few days ago who claimed to be the descendant of the Dragon and Tiger Gate was a fake. This time, General Manager Wang spent a lot of effort and kindness to invite a real master who is certified by a famous family. What about the staff, will they suddenly come to inspect the scene today?

The silence in the office at this moment is synonymous with boundless embarrassment.

"Huh?" Seeing Shen Changan, Zhang Gu remembered the frustration that he couldn't get rid of Shen Changan's memory, so he took the initiative to say hello with some embarrassment, "Are you also from this company?"

Shen Changan took out his work card and handed it to Zhang Gu, smiling innocently: "Hello, I am a staff member of the people's livelihood service department."

Zhang Gu: "..."

Isn’t this the department that likes to distribute leaflets on the street, with slogans such as “Believe in science is good, science is a treasure” and “If your health is not good, go to the hospital” printed on the leaflets?

"Have you... found out why?" Zhang Gu's talent for cultivating Taoism is very ordinary, and he can't observe Qi with the naked eye, and distinguish the number of blessings, fortunes, and longevity, but he has a faint intuition that tells him that although Shen Changan is more polite and polite harm.

Practitioners value their intuition very much, so when facing Shen Changan, he unconsciously became half a point shorter.People who don't know how to practice Taoism but don't respond to his memory removal technique are definitely not too ordinary.

"There is something wrong with the program password, and it needs to be maintained by professional program security personnel. The loophole cannot be completely repaired within one or two hours." Shen Changan also has a deep memory of this young Taoist priest who broke his three views. .

"It turns out that's the case." Zhang Gu immediately turned his head and said to the general manager, "It's very correct to ask professionals to solve problems. Since it's a computer system problem, there's no need to be poor. What we pay attention to in the new era is scientific events Treat it scientifically, don’t be feudal and superstitious, feudal superstition kills people, you know?”

Everyone in the company silently looked at the serious Zhang Gu, you, a Taoist priest, are you still talking about feudal superstition killing people?

"Our Taoism emphasizes the nature of heaven, earth, and belief, and has nothing to do with feudal superstition..." Zhang Gu's eyes fell to the corner, paused, and took out the compass to look at it for a few times, with a complicated expression, and pulled it over. Chang'an said to everyone, "Everyone take a break first, and I will discuss system security issues with the staff of the civilian service department."

Everyone: "..."

Now Taoist priests are so interested in system security issues?

Ding Yang: "..."

He is also a staff member of the civilian service department, why not invite him to discuss together.

Zhang Gu pulled Shen Chang'an to a corner, and whispered to him: "Brother, I didn't intend to spread ghosts and gods in front of you on purpose, but this office... his grandfather's is really haunted."

"Good Taoist priests don't swear." Shen Changan raised his eyebrows.

Zhang Gu: "..."

The point is not swearing, but ghosts, okay?

"The ghost you are talking about, could it be the young man hiding in the corner and burying his head in his work?" Shen Chang'an thought about it carefully, and among a bunch of lazy employees, only that young man was particularly out of gregarious, hard-working and This office is seriously different.

"Can you see it?" Zhang Gu was also a little surprised.

"It's such a big lump, it's very difficult to pretend not to see it." Shen Changan opened the door of the safe passage, and saw the young man hiding in the corner and eavesdropping. Seeing him suddenly open the door, he was frightened. The corner of the wall trembled.As if he was a bully, the young man was the big girl with a yellow flower who was being bullied.

"Come here." Shen Changan hooked his fingers towards him.

The young man walked towards Shen Chang'an tremblingly, Zhang Gu could only see a cloud of ghostly aura, and when he sensed the cloud of ghostly energy approaching, he took out the talisman defensively, lest this person who was unwilling to be forced to stay in the world Ghost, suddenly do evil.

Shen Chang'an stretched out his hand to press back the talisman paper in Zhang Gu's hand, and said to the young man, "Why do you linger in this company and don't want to leave?"

When the young man was three or four steps away from Shen Changan, he didn't dare to go any further. He shrank his neck and said honestly: "I'm an otaku and I'm afraid of dealing with people, so I hide at home every day and play games. Don't want to go to work."

"In July this year, when I went shopping, it suddenly rained heavily. General Manager Wang saw that I was thin, so he took an umbrella with me and encouraged me to come out to find a job."

It can be seen that this young man is not very eloquent, and what was originally a simple matter was confused by him: "A few days later, I heard that a branch of a big company was established here, so I went to submit my resume. I didn't expect the company's The person in charge is Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang didn’t dislike me for not being good at talking, but he valued my ideas and creativity, so he decided to let me come to work in the company.”

"I didn't know that I died suddenly the night before going to work." Speaking of this, the young man was a little annoyed, "I didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to the fans."

Although the young man doesn't like to talk in reality, he is a funny and humorous Weibo blogger on the Internet. He also writes novels on the Internet. He has millions of fans who follow him. It can also make fans watch with gusto.

"Maybe it was because I was a bit unwilling when I died, so I became a ghost?" The young man couldn't quite understand why he stayed in the world, "Aren't there such settings in novels and comics, because death There was something worrying about before, so that’s why you can’t reincarnate?”

"I haven't been able to wait for someone to take me to reincarnate. I can only find the reason by myself. After thinking about it, I came here to work." Mentioning these people in the company, the young man was a little disappointed, "But I didn't expect that, Mr. Wang's employees are so lazy. I tried my best to help them do marketing online and increase the favorability of passers-by, but they couldn't even manage the production line. I was afraid that they would be scolded by customers, so I could only use the excuse of a conscientious enterprise to save them. The shortcoming of their serious shortage of goods."

Speaking of this, the young man was full of exhaustion: "I worked desperately to help them increase sales, but they suspected that I had turned into a ghost to harm them. Tell me, is it easy for me to be an otaku ghost? Even if I am a king, I can't handle so many people." Bronze!"

Zhang Gu nodded sympathetically: "It's really not easy."

"There is a problem with the company's system, and if we can't find out the reason, it is said to be haunted." The young man shook his head repeatedly, "Which ghost is so boring, and he wastes all his ghost power just to let them watch scary videos, and he is not full."

"It's so old, what kind of ghosts and gods do you believe in when things happen, even if you are a king, you can't move them." After the young man finished complaining, his mood finally calmed down. He glanced at Shen Changan carefully, and the fear in his eyes couldn't be concealed. , "Fortunately, you came here today and helped them point out the reason, otherwise they would have to ask Taoist priests to do it."

The true Taoist priest Zhang Gu looked a little helpless: "You should also be lucky, the Taoist cultivator I met today is me. Some Taoist cultivators are very strict with the ghosts wandering in the world. If they came, they might have locked your soul and imprisoned you long ago. "

"You... have you finished?" Ding Yang pointed his head over, did he misread just now, that Taoist seemed to be talking to the air?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help touching his arm, and took a few steps towards Shen Changan: "Changan, do you think it's very cold here?"

Seeing Ding Yang pass through the body of the young man and come to him, Shen Changan couldn't bear to tell him that there was a ghost two steps away from him, so he said, "There is a vent here, so it is colder." .”

"It turned out to be like this." Ding Yang felt relieved, and walked a few steps with a dry smile, "No wonder it's so cold." It's just that the air cooling is a little uneven, and he can feel different temperatures just by walking a few steps.

"Sir, can you tell your friend not to walk around?" The young man looked at Ding Yang constantly walking around in his body, "Although I don't have a physical body, it's quite faceless."

They've all turned into ghosts, so what's the point of saving face.Shen Changan said to Ding Yang, "Brother Yang, stand by my side, there is no wind here, so it's warmer."

Ding Yang quickly walked to the place Shen Changan pointed to and stood still, and smiled gratefully at him, it was indeed much warmer here.He turned to look at Zhang Gu: "Mr. Taoist, do you know Chang'an?"

"We met once, so we're not too familiar." Without waiting for Zhang Gu to speak, Shen Changan spoke first, "The matter has been settled, let's go back."

"Wait!" The young man hugged Shen Changan's thigh with a puff, "Boss, your whole body is covered with golden light, and you look like a majestic big shot at first glance. Can you find a way to reincarnate me? Being a ghost is so boring. I can't drink otaku happy water, and I can't buy my beloved figure, please save the child."

"Brother Yang, you go there first, I remembered that there are still two things I want to say to the Taoist priest." Shen Changan looked down at the young man holding his thighs, and after taking Ding Yang away, he hooked his legs lightly, and the young man formed a round shape Group, rolled down the stairs.

"Sorry, I didn't expect you ghosts to kick so hard. Are you okay?" Shen Changan looked at the young man crawling up the stairs, and couldn't help taking a step back. piece."

"I, my legs are weak, and I can't stand up." The young man lay on the ground, hugging Shen Changan's ankle again with trembling hands, "Don't blame sir, it's because my ghost power is too weak to bear the golden light on your body."

"You said he has a golden light?" Zhang Gu couldn't see other people's anger, but after hearing the young man's description, Shen Chang'an's eyes were shining, "Boss, you have merit!"

Yes, not only do I have merit, but I also have ten lifetimes of merit, Shen Changan smiled calmly.

"Boss, have you ever thought about entering our Xuanmen?" Zhang Gu said, "With your talent, as long as you worship our Xuanmen, it will definitely be the future light of our Xuanmen. Do you want to think about it?"

"Thank you, I think it's fine now." Shen Chang'an refused without even thinking about it. He lowered his head and said to the young man, "It's useless for you to look for me. I'm not professional. Why don't you find a solution with Daoist Zhang?"

"I can't." Zhang Gu said hastily, "My aptitude is mediocre, and I'm not yet in the realm of yin and yang. But my uncle may be able to do it. He is not only good at all kinds of profound arts, but also yin and yang. Most importantly, He happened to stay in Wuming City for the last year, so we can take him to the uncle to find out what's going on."

"Thank you Daoist, thank you Daoist." The young man said, "How about I help you do a marketing on the Internet to create popularity for your sect."

"Thank you, no need, our Taoist sect pays attention to everything according to fate, you should think about how to successfully reincarnate." Zhang Gujing thanked Bumin, he took out a bag, "How about I put you away and take you to the uncle's house?"

"No, no need, I think it would be nice to hang on Mr.'s lap." The young man remembered the plot in the comics where ghosts are put into gourds or jars by Taoist priests, and shook his head like a rattle. "Mr. It's shiny, I love it."

"All right, I won't force you to be dragged on the ground if you like." Zhang Gu put away the small bag, and said to Shen Chang'an, "Then let's go there now?"

"Wait, I'll call my friend. We made an appointment to have lunch together." Shen Changan took out his cell phone and dialed Dao Nian's cell phone number.

"Dao Nian, I have something to do at noon, so I may not be able to come back for dinner..." Shen Changan looked down at the ghost hanging on his feet, "I have something to do temporarily, I need to find someone."

"Are you waiting for me at home?" Shen Changan glanced at the time, hesitating for less than three seconds, "Well, I'll come back as soon as I'm done."

Dao Nian hung up the phone and looked at Changfeng Biological Company across the street expressionlessly: "Go back."

"Sir, you can go there with Mr. Shen." Looking at Daonian's cold face, Liu Mao summoned up his courage to say something.

"You know human males, what do you hate the most?"

Liu Mao shook his head.

"I hate the lack of freedom the most." Dao Nian closed his eyes, "I've existed for so many years, I can't argue with children, these are all up to him."

Liu Mao thought, with that cold face of yours, you really can't see that you don't care at all.

It's just that Mr. Shen is too accommodating to Mr. Shen. Even if Mr. Shen is a meritorious body of ten lifetimes, it is not enough to make Mr. Shen treat him differently.

So, what is it all about?

He glanced at the cold face of his husband in the rearview mirror. He was destined to have no emotion, and suddenly he had the emotion of "need". Could this be a bad omen, or a turning point in this world where the aura is getting thinner?

Ever since the Great Dao disappeared ten thousand years ago, the human race suddenly prospered, and all races have followed the trajectory determined by heaven and gradually faced their established destiny. No matter whether they are gods or demons, they cannot escape their own endings.

Seeing the prosperity of human beings, it's not that there are no monster races who hate it, but the luck of human beings is prosperous, and even gods and monsters can't touch it.But even human beings cannot prosper forever and become a permanent miracle.

Mr. is transformed from the Dao of Heaven, and is the last barrier of gods, monsters and even human beings. If Mr. also dies along with Dao, what will this world look like?

He didn't dare to think about it, nor could he imagine it.Perhaps the doomsday-themed works created by human beings are perfect scenario simulations.

Shen Changan and Zhang Gu called an online car-hailing car, and when they arrived at the destination, Shen Changan looked at Zhang Gu suspiciously, isn't this the neighborhood where he lives?

"My uncle lived here recently, but he has been in a bad mood for the past few days. I heard that there is a monk staying at his house."

This statement seems a bit... familiar?

When Zhang Gu knocked on the door and Uncle Zhang's figure appeared inside, Shen Chang'an knew that this world is really not big.

"Qinggu?" Uncle Zhang sullenly said, "Why are you here?"

"Qing Gu has met the master." Facing this very strict master in the sect, Zhang Gu, who is not good at learning skills, is very respectful, "Master, I have something unclear, please ask the master for help."

"It seems that you have made rapid progress recently, and there is only one thing you need to ask for help." Uncle Zhang raised the corner of his mouth, but this smile is ironic no matter how you look at it.

Zhang Gu: "..."

Pretending not to hear the deep meaning in the master's words, Zhang Gu turned his head to look at Shen Chang'an who was standing beside him: "Master, this is a friend I just met, you..."

"Shen Chang'an?" Seeing Shen Chang'an walking out from behind Zhang Gu, Uncle Zhang looked down at the ghost hanging on his feet, and suddenly said loudly, "Wait, stand still, I want to open your eyes !"

Today he wants to avenge his shame. Who said there are no ghosts in the world? !

Zhang Gu looked at the uncle in doubt, and then at Shen Chang'an, what happened?

Uncle Zhang took out a talisman, and first immobilized the ghost hanging on Shen Changan, lest the ghost escape.Then he took out a bottle of precious cow's tears and walked towards Shen Chang'an. He said proudly, "I won't be surnamed Zhang if I don't scare you today!"

Shen Changan: "..."

The author has something to say: Shen Changan:? ? ?Hello, what's the matter?
