Chapter 69: Illusory Reality
"Come on, brothers, let's do it."
In a small alley 100 meters from the left turn of the H University Gate, Li Dabiao pulled his throat, picked up a huge wine glass, and took a sip.
"Brother Li, you take it easy, we don't have the amount of alcohol you have." Someone was heckling nearby.
But everyone, including Shi Hou, did not hesitate.
In the four years of college, there will be one or two times a week like this, and who doesn't know how much alcohol anyone drinks.
"Fart, in a few days, we will be going our separate ways, and we don't know when we will be together again." Li Dabiao was a little sullen.
As a student majoring in the Department of Mythology of the School of Archaeology, there is only one class in their department, and there are more than 30 people in the entire class, which belongs to the unpopular among the unpopular, and some people even say that the students of this department are purely for the purpose of rubbing the school's graduation certificate.
Of course, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that except for those students who already have a background in their families, they already have a family that has paved the way for their future, and the rest of the people really don't know what to do after graduation.
is also a student of the Department of Archaeology, and those from other departments can at least have a job in archaeology, but the Department of Mythology, Nima, do you want them to dig up the bones of the gods?
"Think so much and do what, the world is so big, we people will not starve to death." Another classmate was concerned and took another glass of suffocation.
This topic, since they first entered the mythology department, has actually been hanging over their heads.
Most of the courses of the Department of Mythology are the study of the world's major mythological systems, especially the study of Chinese mythology and stories, which is very in-depth.
But to put it bluntly, no one knows that it is useless in the real world.
They are just hairy students, not those senior scholars, no matter how well they understand myths and stories, and even the life experiences of those gods in mythology can pull out a lot, but what is the use.
"Don't talk about it, drink, drink, no one wants to go back standing today." Li Dabiao waved his hand and began to enforce the drinking order.
Shi Hou seemed a little quiet, but under the drive of this group of animals, not a cup fell.
When the show ended at two o'clock in the morning, Shi Hou was already dizzy and couldn't find the north and south, and he didn't know how to climb into the dormitory.
That night, he had a dream that he was the Monkey King and was killing in the Three Realms......
"Sir, I'm sorry, we recruit a good copywriter, but we don't need to make up myths, so ......"
"Sir, are you here to be funny, although we are recruiting sales, we also need professional knowledge, maybe you can go to a real estate company to try ......"
"Get out, there is no performance for three months, people are here to buy a house, not to listen to your story, are you here to rub the most basic salary, check out and roll ......"
"College students? Well, although it's not impossible for college students to be security guards, but with your physique, who have beaten ......?"
……
Shi Hou stood at the door of a courier company with a backpack that had long been worn out.
Half a year, half a year since graduation, he has changed how many jobs he has interviewed, but as his classmates said, what can people in their mythology department do besides telling mythological stories to people?
"The world is big, there is always a way to break through, I don't believe it."
Shi Hou stepped on the bicycle equipped by the company to deliver the courier, and plunged into the small and deep residential building street.
"Shihou, look at what you've done, we are receiving and delivering couriers, not welfare, this month, how many orders have you lost, you are such a talent, I can't afford this small temple, get out of ......"
"Hey, Shihou, is Shihou you, why are you here?"
Under the overpass, a beautifully dressed woman stopped Shi Hou, looking at Shi Hou's clothes covered in old street stalls, holding a thick stack of leaflets in her hand, her face was full of surprise.
"You recognize the wrong person...... Shi Hou threw down the leaflet and ran away.
It was the object of a year in college, and although they had already broken up, they ......
On the construction site under the scorching sun, Shi Hou pushed the heavy bucket truck, sweat slipped down his dark face, and he didn't pay attention to a brick in front of him.
"Ah, bastard, how do you work, this is the best celadon, you, you, you fuck me ......"
The foreman of the contractor twisted his fat body and pounced, spraying Shihou's face full of saliva.
……
Year after year, in the blink of an eye, it has been ten years since graduation, and Shi Hou stood at the entrance of the subway, at a loss.
At this time, he has long lost his original appearance, and in ten years, he seems to be twenty years old.
The pride he had when he just graduated from college was long gone, and now he has lost his job again.
I can't remember that it was the first time that he had been driven away, Shi Hou silently carried a worn-out backpack and stood on the subway that could lead to all corners of the city, but like a headless fly, he couldn't find his own way.
……
"Hey, Shihou, today is the tenth anniversary of our graduation, you kid must arrive." Li Dabiao's unfamiliar and familiar voice came from the phone, Shi Hou gritted his teeth and got into the subway passage.
"Ha, classmates, look who is coming, isn't this the mythical little prince of our class, how did he become Uncle Li?"
Just walked into the hall of the class reunion, a yin and yang strange voice sounded, Shi Hou stood still, his eyes full of vicissitudes swept over the familiar and now strange classmates.
"Shihou, hahaha, you kid is finally here, well, the ...... you have lived all these years" Li Dabiao's obviously more sturdy body moved over, and when he saw Shihou, his face was also full of surprise.
Ten years can change a lot, but no matter how bad a person is, he will not be as depressed as Shihou.
"Hey, I've heard that our Uncle Shi is now a celebrity, there are many middle and lower-level companies in H City, he has been to almost all of them, but he has hardly worked for a month, and now the personnel managers of many companies know that there is such a ......."
A person who has always been well-informed and whose mouth has always been yin and yang said in a weird way, Shi Hou glanced at him and recognized that this was the person who had worked with him in a small company, and he was fired that time, which had something to do with him.
"Okay, they're all classmates, what are you doing when you say it's so ugly, Shihou, it's not me saying you, your temperament, you really have to change it, it's not wrong to be stubborn, it's not wrong to insist, it's not wrong to rather die than give in, but what is wrong is that reality is reality, sometimes it's not difficult to bow your head and be soft." Li Dabiao sighed.
They have all heard about Shihou more or less, and it is not Shihou himself who said it, but what they heard by chance in their respective industries, so it can be seen that Shihou is like a fool in the eyes of many people.
are all graduated from the Department of Mythology, almost all of them are not linked to the profession after they come out, but the society has to change as people change, but Shihou does not repent, every time he goes to a company or even some places where they are not happy to go to work, he will always offend people for various active and passive reasons.
Such a person, who dares to use it, who can use it for a long time.
"Heh, thank you for your kindness, Da Biao, everyone has their own ambitions, and I am relieved to see you live freely." Shi Hou smiled self-deprecatingly, turned around and left.
In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to change, but he can't help but look at some things, or some things come up.
This society has been changing, but the only thing that remains unchanged is all kinds of rules and regulations, which always bind him intentionally or unintentionally, but but, as Li Dabiao said, his character is ......
One year, two years, three years......
Shi Hou traveled all over the place, and even left the familiar city, the original bright graduation certificate had already folded into pickle leaves, but Shi Hou was still wandering, achieving nothing, nothing to do.
"Hey, this person is good, get on the ......" Walking on the road, Shi Hou suddenly heard a voice, and then his eyes went dark, and he was hit the head.
When he woke up again, Shi Hou had been taken to a strange place, there was a young man sitting in front of him, his face was full of oil, Shi Hou just saw him, and he was stunned, this person looked seven or eight points like him.
"You, who are you, what do you want to do?" Shi Hou got up and looked at these people vigilantly.
"Young master, we have found the whole city, this is it, are you satisfied?" A strong man flattered and flattered, and it was the owner of the previous voice.
"Yes, there is a little bit of the young master's physiognomy, it's just him, let people do it secretly, and when I come back from abroad, I don't want to hear anything about me again." The man walked up to Shi Hou, looked up and down for a long time, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Wait, you ......"
"Haha, boy, I'm not afraid to tell you, the young master has taken a fancy to you, you will take the young master and my name and past, go to the execution ground, rest assured, every year on the death day, the young master will let people burn some paper money for you, besides, you are not unjust, the young master is ......" The young man laughed proudly.
"What?" Shi Hou was stunned.
Looking at the young man's face that was similar to himself, but obviously younger and better, he suddenly understood everything.
This young man committed a crime and was betrayed and executed, but now, he wants to find himself as a substitute for the dead, so that he can take all the trials against him, needless to say, this is a very powerful family.
But why......
Shi Hou clenched his hands into fists, his green tendons burst, he thought he was unlucky enough, but how could there be more unlucky things that happened to him, at this moment, the suffering and humiliation he had suffered since graduation surged into Shi Hou's mind at the same time.
All those sarcasm, those ridicule, all those bitterness, all that bitterness, are nothing, but is he going to stare at the name of a condemned prisoner to die?
"I'll fuck you, I'll die......"
At this moment, Shi Hou was like a madman, and his clenched fist suddenly smashed out.
At this moment, Shi Hou felt that something was cracked in his body, and at this moment, infinite power suddenly appeared in Shi Hou's body, as if he wanted to shatter this damn reality, and with a punch, he blasted the young man into slag, and even the space was shattered by him.
Immediately, Shi Hou let out a roar full of tyranny, and the sound waves rippled, and everything turned into darkness.
