Abyss of ignorance

Chapter 148 Tavern

The light in the tavern was dim, and a small TV was playing Hong Kong movies. The beauties in cars, the grievances of wealthy families, and the desire for wealth of the people watching the TV were bound up. At that time, Linzhou was a place where everything was possible. land of development.

The electric fan made a very annoying creaking noise.

Because the tabletop has not been wiped for a long time, a thick pile of grease has accumulated on it, which is sticky to the touch. It is mixed with today's meal, which should make people lose their appetite.

But the people in this tavern seem to need such a dirty environment, so that all people can use the smell of alcohol to abandon their various identities during the day and become a complete alcoholic, carnivaling regardless of each other in this place .

"Boss Shen is amazing! You drank them all down by yourself!" A dark and thin man was wearing a chemical fiber blue shirt, shoulder to shoulder with Shen Guoming, his face flushed.When he spoke, the spittle with the smell of wine flew across and splashed everywhere.

However, no one cares.

Shen Guoming was also drunk. The usual modest and prudent man, at this moment, was intoxicated by alcohol and fell into boundless conceit. He raised his glass and shouted loudly: "What are they? Didn't they all get laid down by me! Let me just say this, in Linzhou, no one can drink better than me!" The wine in his hand swayed out, and his hands were full, but in this place, no matter how dirty It doesn't matter.

Lin Zhengyang sat quietly in the corner with his head down, carrying the medicine box on his back.

"What do you want?" The boss walked up to Lin Zhengyang and sized him up. It was obvious that he was not a regular customer.

Lin Zhengyang was somewhat at a loss. He was good at seeing a doctor, but not drinking.

But he needs alcohol, he wants to use alcohol to numb those fragile nerves, to numb the tingling pain when the needle pierces into the skin, and to numb the endless fear of death.

A whole room of people came to this tavern to have fun, only Lin Zhengyang came to seek death.

The boss saw that this was a stranger who was not good at drinking, so he recommended the novice set meal very routinely: "Have a bottle of beer? Get some peanuts?"

"No!" Lin Zhengyang firmly denied, "Bring me the strongest wine in your shop."

He was serious, and accidentally turned up his volume, which attracted the attention of Shen Guoming, who was not far away and was full of bragging.He drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, picked up the half bottle of wine beside him, and walked towards Lin Zhengyang unsteadily.

"The strongest wine? Are you awesome?" Shen Guoming sat down on the seat next to Lin Zhengyang, and moved forward without a sense of boundary.

Lin Zhengyang frowned, moved his seat towards the wall, and did not speak.

How difficult it was to be an alcoholic, he knew.

Alcoholic drunks are often sent to his health station, in need of infusion therapy.

"Oh? Do you know who I am? I am Shen Guoming, the richest man in Nanpu, Boss Shen!" He opened his palm and gestured in front of Lin Zhengyang. ?”

Lin Zhengyang turned his head aside, money was no longer important to him, he just wanted to wait for the boss to deliver the wine, and then leave.

In this tavern, people meet each other by chance, and life without mutual understanding, such as a gap that cannot be crossed, crossing the boundary may mean falling into the abyss under the gap, and Shen Guoming was so drunk at this time that he was fully conscious That's not enough.

He caught a glimpse of the medicine box on Lin Zhengyang's back, and smiled, "Hey, he's a doctor! You're here to be happy and still carry this thing?"

"It's not a toy, it's a medicine box." Lin Zhengyang finally couldn't help correcting this messy alcoholic.

"This thing is useless here! Throw it to me!" Said Shen Guoming, who wanted to step forward to tease him.

"Go away." Lin Zhengyang said in a deep voice.

"What did you say? Say it again?" Shen Guoming was still offending without knowing what to do.

"I said, get the hell out of here." Lin Zhengyang repeated again, looking at Shen Guoming with bloodshot eyes, he didn't know who was the drunk person for a while.

With a "snap", Shen Guoming patted a bunch of brand new banknotes on the table: "How is it? Can it be done now?" As he spoke, he roughly knocked on Lin Zhengyang's medicine box, making a "thump, boom, boom" sound. , together with the creaking sound of the ceiling fan, makes people feel so irritable that they want to explode, "Doctor? Cultural person? I graduated from junior high school and made 100 million! I just bought the latest toy car for my son and brought it from Hong Kong Yes, he owns the whole Nanpu."

None of the offenses hurt more than when Shen Guoming mentioned the word "son". Lin Zhengyang got up and left without waiting for the drink.

However, Shen Guoming, who was proud of the spring breeze, was irritated by Lin Zhengyang's cold reaction.

Just when he needed someone to flatter him, this man carrying a medicine box looked poor and honest, but he didn't feel any envy for his wealth.

Alcohol brings out the most hidden malice in a person's personality.

He wanted the man to admit his greatness.

Lin Zhengyang left, and Shen Guoming stumbled after him.

It was late at night, leaving the crowded tavern, it was dark outside.

Lin Zhengyang walked in the opposite direction of the city.

The tavern was originally located in the outskirts, a barren village and a wild shop, and outside, it was a boundless reed marsh.

At that time, the term wetland was not popular yet.

The mournful cry of the crow was mixed with the sound of the reeds swaying in the wind, like a swamp elf luring two people into the quagmire from which they could not get out.

Lin Zhengyang walked forward with his head buried in the medicine box, just wanting to get rid of the muttering drunk behind him.

The alcoholic, however, always has a whiff of nonsense that sober people cannot comprehend.

Lin Zhengyang stood in front of the vast swamp, the world was boundless, but no one relieved his pain. Even when he was about to let go of the world, God still arranged for an annoying drunkard like a mosquito to pester him.

In this world, a smart person like him can't keep his favorite son, can't be the famous doctor he yearns for, and his life of mediocrity will end in this quagmire.

Suddenly, he was slapped on the back, causing him to stagger and fall into the reeds.

On the shore, Shen Guoming was smirking: "Tell you to see how powerful I am, how lofty I am? Hahaha!" He chased into the quagmire without hesitation, picked up the wine bottle and slammed it down on Lin Zhengyang's head.

With the sound of glass shattering, Lin Zhengyang felt his eyes go dark, and he fell into the mud completely.

Shen Guoming, who had succeeded, walked to the shore cursing.

The reeds in the darkness were quiet for a moment.

Just this moment of silence will completely change the lives of the two of them...
