Chapter 1 Ghost Press
"Da Zhi! Da Zhi! Get up quickly!"
Xu Zhi vaguely heard someone shouting in his ear. The voice seemed familiar, but he didn't realize who it was.
"Have you slept for a long time? But who would call yourself ambitious?"
In my memory, except for the bad friends I haven’t seen for several years, no one would call me that. Unfortunately, my former roommates never had time to see each other after they broke up, and they didn’t even communicate with each other on WeChat.
Xu Zhi realized that he was sleeping and prepared to get up, but found darkness.
The darkness is not in front of me, because I can't feel my eyes or my body at all.
"Is the ghost on the bed?" Xu Zhi suddenly understood in his heart.
Because he had several experiences before, Xu Zhi also learned about it on Baidu. He couldn't understand the principle. To put it simply, a person wakes up but his body is not there yet. Most people only wake up after a few minutes.
"Why haven't you woken up yet?" I felt dazed for a long time, but I couldn't feel my body at all.
Xu Zhi tried hard to control his hands and feet, but he couldn't feel them at all. After struggling for a long time, there was still no response.
"If you can't wake up, then continue sleeping!" In the darkness, Xu Zhi, who decided to give up the trouble, slowly fell asleep.
Pieces of memories slowly flickered in and out of the dream, and various details appeared with each other like a movie. It played for a long time. Suddenly, the style of the painting changed, and it seemed that he had become another person.
The memories of the two people's lives appear repeatedly in front of their eyes, but it seems to be just a dream.
Maybe a lifetime has passed in an instant, or a lifetime has passed in an instant.
…………….
"Ding ding ding..." The sound of an alarm clock suddenly sounded.
Xu Zhi reacted instinctively and immediately slapped the alarm clock: "Who the hell put an alarm clock in my house?"
In what age do we still use alarm clocks?
But I finally woke up. I touched the bed for a while, but couldn't find my phone for a while.
“You don’t feel safe without a mobile phone!”
After realizing that he might not be very safe, Xu Zhi smacked his lips, sat up half asleep, lifted up the quilt and pillow, and prepared to dig out his mobile phone.
As soon as I sat up, my head went blank, and my half-lidded eyes suddenly widened. It was clearly winter, so why did I cover myself with a blanket? And I actually slept naked? But it wasn't cold when I woke up!
Looking stiffly at everything in front of him, Xu Zhi was stunned for a moment: Is there such a room?
In a typical coffin room, the bed occupies 90% of the room. There is a gap on the right side that a hand can barely reach into. Xu Zhi glanced at the gap, reached in and picked up the alarm clock.
At the same time, everything in the dream just now became clear! All the memories of life in two different eras appeared in my mind.
Although it seems incredible, the almanac on the wall clearly says: 1977
After lying down for a while, he felt better. The memories of the two lives were mixed together, giving him a headache. Not only the memories, but also all the emotions and life experiences were mixed together. He almost didn't know whether it was the memories of later generations that took away this memory.
This body has the memory of past lives.
I got up from the bed, got dressed, and opened the sliding door of the room. The sliding door was close to the bed. After opening it, I could get out sideways.
I walked to the mirror in the living room and took a look. A teenage boy appeared in the mirror, his face still a little childish.
I clenched my fists, and my young body was indeed different. It felt full of strength. Although there were no eight-pack abs on my belly, it did not have the small beer belly that I would have in later generations. After lowering my head, I could finally see my toes!
"Dazhi, can you please be quiet!" The door to another room suddenly opened, and Xu Yaxin walked out of the room looking angry.
Today was the weekend, and she had planned to take a good nap, but she heard her mother calling her brother to get up early in the morning. She finally stopped and heard a "bang" sound, as if something fell.
After two tossings, I couldn't fall asleep anymore, so I got angry and when I opened the door, I found that the culprit who had woken me up was still looking at himself in the mirror.
Xu Zhi looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar "cute sister" in front of him, walked up to him, gently pinched the "sister's" cheek, and then gently turned 90 degrees.
"Ah!!!" Xu Yaxin cried for a while, grabbed Xu Zhi's right hand, and pinched it with both hands.
"It hurts!" Xu Zhi quickly let go and said with a smile, "I'll help you wake up."
In my memory, the brother and sister often hurt each other. This was a treatment that the only child had not enjoyed in the previous life. My own treatment was also good, and I did not enter an orphanage at some point in time.
"Call me brother! You can call me Dazhi too!" Before Xu Zhi could speak, a sound came from the kitchen. When his mother saw both of them getting up, she immediately shouted: "Hurry up and brush your teeth!"
Xu Yaxin stuck out her tongue, snorted, and immediately rushed into the bathroom.
Although Xu Zhi already knew that the house in front of him was his home in his memory, he still looked around.
In Xiangjiang in 1977, although housing prices were not as high as in later generations, owning a house was not an easy task for ordinary families.
Xu Zhi's parents also followed their elders to Xiangjiang when they were young. They first worked as coolies on the docks, and then worked as fishermen on ships. Then a typhoon almost capsized the ship. After escaping, they never dared to go fishing again.
But Xu Zhi's father, Xu Hongbang, was not a patient person. After changing jobs in several factories, he started tinkering with small businesses.
Relying on his relationship with fishermen for several years, he set up a stall in Kowloon and sold seafood. Although it was hard work, he made money much faster than in a factory. Taking advantage of the real estate crisis in 1967 and 1973, Xu Hongbang emptied his savings and owed money.
He borrowed a large amount of debt from the bank to buy a small shop and started a seafood business. The house in front of Xu Zhi was a government public housing estate.
"A real rich man!" Xu Zhi couldn't help but sigh. Although it was a little small to have a shop in Xiangjiang, it would be the lifelong dream of many Central white-collar workers in future generations!
"What are you looking at! Go and wash up quickly!" Xu Zhi was just about to go out to see the scenery of Xiangjiang River. Before he could reach the balcony, his mother grabbed his ears and pulled him back.
"Haha!" Xu Yaxin, who was already drinking milk on the table, laughed immediately when she saw her brother suffering a loss.
……….
After finishing washing, my mother Wang Hua chattered a few words, took out yesterday's leftovers from the kitchen, and said as she walked: "There was still some food yesterday, Da Zhi, please eat it quickly, I have already prepared the dishes just now."
, I’ll bring it to your dad later, he got up late in the morning and didn’t even eat breakfast!”
The seafood seller has to get up early every day to buy goods. He has an old van at home. Xu Hongbang usually leaves at 3 o'clock in the night to buy goods. When he returns to the store, he has to tidy it up. Before dawn, a small restaurant nearby will do it.
Come to receive the goods, and then sell some in bulk. By the time you can really rest, it's almost lunch time.
However, since he failed in the Form 5 entrance examination last year, Xu Zhi also joined the glorious little group, often replacing his mother who got up early in the morning to follow his father to purchase goods, and then accompanied him to sell seafood.
But it has rained for several days in a row recently, and business has dropped a lot, so the family is ready to take a good rest, but business still has to be done. Xu Zhi can sleep more in the morning, but he still has to go to the store to watch in the afternoon.
After finishing the meal, Wang Hua hurriedly left with his lunch box after being busy for a while.
"Brother!" Xu Yaxin held her cheek and looked at Xu Zhi without blinking.
"What are you doing?" Xu Zhi glanced at his sister, and the memories of the two lives merged together. He suddenly became no stranger to this sister. When he saw her calling him brother, it was definitely not a good thing.
"I'm not full yet, why don't we go out to eat at McDonald's!" Xu Yaxin looked forward to it: "I went there last time and didn't eat enough at all!"
"You know I just got a salary, right?" Xu Zhi knew what his sister was planning. He went to the store with his parents to help every day, and his father also gave him a salary, but after all, in the eyes of his parents, he was still a
He had a child, so he didn’t give much, only 100 yuan a month, but because of his youthful temperament, he basically spent it all.
"No, here you go, go on your own!" Xu Zhi took a 10 yuan note from his wallet and handed it to his sister.
He was used to eating all kinds of food in his previous life, and had long lost interest in KFC and McDonald's.
"Hey, you're not going?" Xu Yaxin looked at her brother in disbelief, and he was too generous. It was already good to give him a few yuan before, but this 10 yuan is a huge sum of money.
"Okay, come back and do your homework after dinner. I have to check it at night!" Xu Zhi waved his hand.
"You, check my homework?" Xu Yaxin immediately looked contemptuous: "Only your grades?"
Although she is two grades behind, Xu Yaxin's grades have always been good, and she is very hopeful that she can be admitted to the University of Hong Kong or the Chinese University of Hong Kong in Hong Kong. If Xu Zhi, who barely graduated from Form 5, comes to check, it is really not possible.
Xu Zhi shook his head and smiled, without explaining, and said, "Come on, let's go down. I'll take you to McDonald's first, and then go to the store?"
After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
