Death is not terrible, what is afraid is that life is worse than death.

For Situ Jue, immortality, immortality, living like a walking corpse, is the cruelest Lingchi.

Dawn breaks.

Beijing City, Courtyard No. [-].

Situ Jue woke up from his sleep again, sat up abruptly, tugged at the collar of his pajamas irritably, fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

There are 365 days in a year, but 300 days will have the same dream, and I will wake up in such a nightmare every morning.

The hot water splashed under the shower made a mist.

Situ Jue submerged in it, trying to get out of the fight between soldiers and iron horses in his dream.

After taking a shower, my troubled thoughts were eased.

Many large and small scars with a long history can be clearly seen on his body.

But these scars are not hideous, more like a unique totem or tattoo, which makes this person look a bit tougher.

He casually picked up a bathrobe and put it on, and tied the belt indiscriminately, revealing a wide and strong chest in the open place.

Water stains were still dripping from the hair, spreading down the neck to the chest.

Situ Jue shook his messy hair, walked to the table and gently pulled down the cord of the desk lamp. The soft orange light was the only light in this large room.

It was already dawn, but Situ Jue would rather close the curtains and light an orange desk lamp than let the light from outside come in.

The room was filled with the smell of cigar tobacco. Situ Jue's knuckles holding the cigar were already a little yellow, but it made the slender knuckles more smelly.

The light-colored thin lips are blowing out smoke rings, and the hand holding the cigar is holding the eyebrows and eyes. It is a blue pupil, dark blue, as deep as the sea, as if it can swallow everything in the world.

After several knocks on the door, Situ Jue frowned slightly.

It's the housekeeper, Uncle Bai.

"Master, breakfast is ready, you can come out after packing up!"

"okay."

Ten minutes later, Situ Jue was fully dressed and walked to the restaurant. Before he got to the restaurant, he heard those strange subordinates chattering endlessly.

"Little tree! Can you stop making such a heavy-tasting thing early in the morning? It's bad enough to clean up those hideous souls on weekdays. You are disgusting me, aren't you?"

"I feel okay. Compared with those souls that need to be stitched, what Xiaoshu has done is already very good."

"Amu, you are a surgeon, you are not afraid, but I am disgusted, you and Xiaoshu deliberately piss me off, don't you?"

"No, I'm just discussing the matter."

"Xiao Qian, this is a new dish I developed, you don't have to say so if you don't like it!"

"..."

"Okay, ok, Xiaoshu also expressed kindness, you can eat as much as you can, and if you don't want to eat, go to the kitchen and do it yourself."

The eight people in the restaurant talked to each other, but they quickly restrained themselves after seeing Situ Jue.

Situ Jue sat down, glanced at the food on the table, and couldn't help frowning.

But he didn't say anything, he ate slowly, just looking at his expression, this food was a dark dish developed by Chef Xiaoshu.

After a while, the excitement at the dinner table resumed just now, but Situ Jue didn't participate in the whole process.

Situ Jue was the last to arrive, but he was the first to finish eating. After breakfast, Situ Jue got up and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something.

"Uncle Bai, shouldn't that little guy come today?"

"Yes, master, I asked Xiaoqian to be in charge of this matter." Uncle Bai glanced at Xiaoqian after speaking.

Xiao Qian hurriedly replied: "Yes, Brother Jue, I sent that little guy an email last night, and he must have seen it by now."

"Well, good." Situ Jue has always been like this, cherishing words like gold.

After Situ Jue left, the eight of them chatted happily again.

"Oh, I can do less work when he comes. From now on, I will take care of Brother Jue."

"Tch, it sounds like you are very busy, isn't it just to tidy up those dead ghosts? How tired can you be?"

"Shut up, what do you know? This is called modeling, modeling."

"Okay, it's noisy again, it's never over."

"You said, will the little guy be scared to death when he comes?"

"If you are scared to death, it must be you who did it!"

"Nonsense, the most I can do is tease him, haha..."

…………

Yang Chenyang sneezed suddenly, "Ah Qiu", he rubbed his nose, staring at the phone screen in his hand for a while in a daze.

Is the air conditioner in the dormitory turned on too much?I have sneezed several times since I woke up this morning.

It's summer now, the junior year has just entered school, and the roommates are busy looking for an internship place. Chen Yang himself has submitted several resumes in a row, but when he opened the mailbox, there was only one reply, signed 'No. [-] Courtyard'.

Seeing this name, Chen Yang was both surprised and delighted.

Since his parents passed away in a car accident and he was sent to the orphanage, he will receive a sum of money from this account called 'No. [-] Yard' every year to ensure that he can study with peace of mind.

Although he inquired in many ways, this 'Garden No. [-]' is as mysterious as it does not exist on the earth, and there is no way to find out.

Chen Yang always wanted to thank him in person, but failed because there was no way to repay him.

To his surprise, the 'No. [-] Courtyard' actually sent him an invitation to take office.

In this way, as well as solving the problem of my internship, I can also repay this benefactor who has been supporting me.

He thought about it again, he is a physics major, and he doesn't know what this 'No. [-] Courtyard' is for, and whether his major can be matched.

"Why are you in a daze? Kid koi." Roommate Awei patted Chen Yang on the shoulder and teased.

Such titles as 'koi', 'lucky star', and 'phoenix' are no strangers to Chen Yang.

Every time he encounters a matter of life and death, he can always turn the danger to safety. Even if everyone else is dead, he can live in safety and security. When did it start, it seems to be after the car accident.

Chen Yang scratched the back of his head and said, "I received an email about my appointment, and I plan to go there later."

Ah Wei patted Chen Yang on the shoulder and said, "You're not bad, it's only been two days since you sent out your cover letter? You received a reply so soon."

The other two roommates also looked at him in unison. They were four people, all four majored in physics, and they were all in the same class.

"Is it a company or a school?"

"It seems to be for education and training. I don't know yet. Let's go and have a look."

The roommates gave him a thumbs up with admiration on their faces.

Someone joked, "It really is the lucky star of Jianghu! This internship can be so smooth, don't forget about riches and honors, Chenyang."

Chen Yang nodded. He didn't explain too much, because he couldn't explain this place clearly, so he didn't know how to tell his roommates.

With everything ready, Chen Yang embarked on the road to the 'No. [-] Courtyard' with an uneasy heart.

I followed the email address all the way to find it, but the location of the 'No. [-] Courtyard' is like a mystery.

@###市¥¥%% Street &&& Lane...

Standing at the intersection, beside the busy street, Chen Yang looked at a loss.

'Court Five'?How could it be in such a place?Where exactly?

Just when he was confused, a black sedan chair that no one was carrying galloped towards him...
