High Score Movie Life

Chapter 38 Family Love
When Heshen felt himself being picked up.

The system prompt sounded: "This time travel movie "Rejuvenation"."

"Movie Difficulty: Easy."

"Playing the role: Benjamin Button."

"Main mission: Survive as a baby until natural death."

"Task reward: a kind of superpower (lottery based on task completion)."

"Mission Notes: To advance the main mission, you need to complete the side missions."

"This time travel system will accompany players throughout the journey and issue side missions at any time."

"Finally, good night, Benjamin."

Before He Shen had time to think, a sudden feeling of sleep came over him, and then...

When he woke up again, he felt that someone was turning his body again. Those hands were so rough, and the calluses on the palms made his skin hurt.

A very small voice was vaguely heard: "I have never seen such a child. His eyes are almost completely blind, his hearing is very weak, and he suffers from severe arthritis. His skin has completely lost elasticity, and his hands and feet have become rigid. Suffering from all kinds of diseases, he is simply an old man who is already in his twilight years and his life is not long yet!”

A female voice asked: "Is he dying?"

He Shen, who was a little tired in mind, was alerted when he heard this, is I going to die just after crossing?

By the way, did I forget something?Why can't my mind turn around?

Then fell asleep again.

When he woke up for the second time, he found himself being held in someone's arms.

I heard a woman say: "My sister gave birth to a child, but she can't raise him, so she has to stay here."

"he is……"

Looking at the dark black lady, she thought for a moment and said, "Benjamin, his name is Benjamin."

The woman continued: "He's not very healthy so we're going to treat him well."

"I have ten children. There is no one I can't take care of. Let me see him." An old female voice came.

"Oh my God! He looks like my ex-husband."

He Shen felt groggy, and when he heard Benjamin, his mind paused.

It was so familiar, he had definitely seen it before.

Then...

It went on like this intermittently, and I don’t know how long it took, until I could think independently.

He Shen finally remembered the past and the present, and thought of all the previous things, so he quickly checked the system log.

Unexpectedly, it was the movie "Rejuvenation". Fortunately, he had seen it and watched it very seriously.

This is a tear-jerking and touching film, filled with various life insights. Strictly speaking, it is an autobiography, recording a person's birth to death.

But his life was different. He grew up in a way that went against the laws of nature, and he wrote an alternative legendary life since he was young.

Seeing the system task, He Shen was a little unbelievable. This task was too simple.

Just after thinking about it, the system intelligent assistant immediately prompted:

"Release the first side mission: Players are asked to learn to walk as soon as possible, the earlier the higher the reward."

"Only when you learn to walk can you touch the world."

I remember that the first time the male protagonist walked was at a magic gun conference. When the male protagonist stood up from the wheelchair, the magic stick priest thought it was God appearing and went to see God in excitement.

But at that time, the male protagonist was already 7 years old.

If you wait until the age of 7 to learn to walk, I'm afraid there will be no reward at all.

Of course, it was still too early to learn to walk. It was difficult for him to even turn over, let alone move his eyes, hands and feet.Now all he can do is learn to speak.

In this way, He Shen grew up day by day under constant fire from his black parents.

The only people who accompany him are the group of elderly people in the nursing home. Among them, He Shen likes General Winslow, a retired soldier who goes to raise the national flag on time at 05:30 every day, regardless of wind or rain.

And Mrs. Sybil Wagner, who was a former opera singer with a very beautiful voice.

one night.

He Shen leaned on the cradle pillow and said to Mrs. Queenie: "Mom, I want to sleep alone."

"Oh! Damn, Withers, he can talk."

"It's one year old. It's normal to be able to talk. Honey, there's no need to make a fuss."

When Mrs. Queenie knew that she could talk to Shen Shen, she prepared a separate room for him.

The room was small, but the windows were large. When the cradle was placed by the window, He Shen turned sideways and could see the outside world.

Another two years passed.

He Shen's hands and feet can finally move flexibly.

When he was sitting in a wheelchair in the kitchen listening to Mr. Withers reciting Shakespeare's plays, he couldn't help but said: "Mr. Withers, can you prepare two crutches for me? The small ones."

The black man froze for a moment, walked over and touched Heshen's old bald head, and sighed: "My child, you are very strong, and it is a miracle that you have survived till now."

"You will receive a gift on your birthday."

A few days later, Mrs. Queenie came to celebrate his birthday with a cake with a candle on top. Everyone present was very happy except General Winslow.

And He Shen received a gift, two freshly polished wooden crutches.

It is divided into upper and lower sections. The lower section is movable and can be adjusted freely according to the height; the upper support frame is added with a layer of cotton pads, which is very comfortable to hold under the arms.

With crutches, walking training can begin. First, you must learn to stand up.

This movement is quite difficult, because He Shen's bones suffer from severe arthritis, and his hands cannot exert any force at all, and he cannot support his body.

But he didn't give up and tried countless times every day until he was exhausted.

Finally, three months later, He Shen stood up from the wheelchair with a cane. This move shocked the old lady next to him.

The next step was to walk, and He Shen fell over and over again, even breaking his head and bleeding once.

Mrs. Queenie was frightened. While wrapping gauze around her, she warned: "Benjamin, I will confiscate your crutches. You will not be allowed to do this again."

"Madam, it's okay. I just want to be an ordinary person, like other children. Can you give me the crutches back?" He Shen showed an innocent and persistent look in his eyes, looking very stubborn.

The black lady took He Shen's hands and said affectionately: "Benjamin, you are just an ordinary person."

"You are no different from anyone else. We just take different paths, but in the same direction."

He Shen still wanted to take back the crutches, "Mom, I just want to walk faster so I can keep up with them."

Mrs. Queenie was moved by the old boy's persistence.

The black lady compromised: "I can return the crutch to you, but you won't be able to bargain with me until your injury heals."

"Okay, ma'am."

He Shen began to recuperate from his injuries, but who knew it would take so long.

A year later, the wound gradually healed, leaving no scars.

When he practices walking again, he has to start learning by standing up again.

He learned quickly this time, probably because his body was slowly changing. His arthritis used to be extremely painful on cloudy days, but now it's much better.

What a freak!
