Chapter 1, Meng Po's Milk Tea

37 Also silent, he really doesn't remember, he only knows that it has been a long time since his first death, one year, two years, or three years, five years.

Another...dead again?

He always gets nervous because he has never tasted Miss Meng's amnesia special offer, whether it's red date and silver ear soup, sesame paste, or milk tea and fruit tea.

This is even more difficult to accept than the fact that Meng Po can sometimes be male

With a flick of his hand, the bubble tea flew towards him.

Two seconds later, a sharp blade pressed against his lower back

Guan Ning fell silent for a moment before speaking: "Alright, tomorrow you will follow that mistress we talked about last time. I do not require you to say one sentence, ten sentences, or twenty sentences; if you can make her confess completely, I will assign you a significant task."

Clearly, he has already died, and he has become a skilled worker in death.

Listening a bit confused, but his impression of KFC is hamburgers, so he interrupted the little girl and said, "Hamburger, hamburger, I want a hamburger."

There appeared a small light ahead, which was Meng Po's lamp.

When a person starts to have bad luck, it's not just a matter of someone saying a word and someone suddenly dying in front of you. Even taking a bus, you have to pay four more yuan than others.

Does this time... pass? "That voice asked again.

The voice ignored him and continued to cackle.

Lu Yan thought for a moment, "Wenyuan Street."

The body feels nothing, except for the sound of flowing water in the ears. There is only this old and hoarse voice above his head, repeatedly rewinding and murmuring this sentence.

Why

I didn't have time to finish my sentence when suddenly I felt myself flying up, and then quickly falling down, losing consciousness soon after.

Rocking and rocking... rocking to Grandma's bridge..." The hoarse voice began to repeat this line again, muttering for a while before stopping, "Why have you died again?"

"Not leaving?" Lu Yan stepped on the knife with one foot

Damn, you asked for it! said the robber through gritted teeth, as the blade left Lu Yan's lower back.

Wen Yuan ... ... Street

"You were dismissed by KFC, so are you asking me to assign you work? Lu Yan, how long have you been unable to do proper work? Don't make it difficult for me; you may not care about your reputation, but I still value my reputation." Guan Ning said quite bluntly.

There are pedestrians walking around me, and cars honking on the road... He has come back again.

He quickly stood up, and he hasn't eaten at K restaurant yet.

37 Stepped towards him, wanting to reach out and touch his face, but as soon as his hand lifted, suddenly felt like his already painful head was about to explode, the pain causing him to see bursts of small flowers in front of his eyes, his body also exhausted and weak, constantly wanting to kneel down uncontrollably.

I can get to work now, I ... ... " Lu Yan leaned against the bus stop sign with a steel rod in hand, watching the car approaching from a distance, " I killed a person with a single sentence today, do not make me track extramarital affairs anymore "

From the time the sun is high in the sky until it sets, 37 finally found a suitable body, that of a man in his thirties

This is a person who has likely been working continuously for a long time, utterly exhausted, and can immediately fall asleep the moment they collapse.

Lu Yan sighed and slowly strolled home

The legendary Naihe Bridge is merely a door plank propped up by the riverbank

Just as he was about to leap forward to catch it, his body, which had felt nothing, suddenly experienced a sensation, one that was very clear and distinct; he was kicked in the backside by someone.

"Stop talking nonsense, take out your wallet, and your phone as well," the blade poked at his waist, "There are no cameras here, it would be pointless to stab."

Again

Rocking, rocking... rocking to Grandma's bridge... rocking, rocking... rocking to Grandma's bridge... rocking, rocking...

Moreover, this person cannot catch up; the footsteps from before can be heard, and he is wearing a pair of ill-fitting leather shoes

Um," Lu Yan took out a cigarette and lit it, turning to look at him, "Wen Yuan Gourmet Street, I sell spicy hot pot there, with a purchase of over 100, a free beer is offered, welcome to visit.

It is essential to succeed, it is essential to get through, it is essential to drink, it is essential to be reborn

A novice is either timid or recklessly bold

In order to avoid further entanglement, Lu Yan raised his leg and kicked him hard in the back. The force was substantial, causing the man to kneel and fall into the nearby flowerbed, where he remained unable to get up for quite some time

When Lu Yan came out of the police station, it was already past 9 o'clock. The process of taking a statement took two hours, leaving him utterly exhausted

"Buddy," a lowered male voice said from behind him, "Can I borrow some money"

Upon entering this person's body, he immediately felt that this person was hungry, had a headache, and was very tired and sleepy, with slightly blurred vision.

Hmm?

"Alright, may I ask which type of hamburger you would like?" the young girl asked again

37 continuously approaches pedestrians, seeking a suitable body

heart disease

37 It was unclear whether he had fallen asleep or fainted; in any case, when he regained consciousness, he saw the dazzling sunlight

However... He turned around and looked around, he needed to find a body first.

As usual, he is still a ghost who died but cannot be reincarnated.

After finishing two cigarettes while squatting by the roadside in front of the police station, his phone rang

Hmm? 37 was taken aback, "Which one? Are there many kinds?"

It is likely that he is the only one who comes to the Naihe Bridge for a day trip without any particular reason.

You old man! As soon as this person saw the knife being stepped on, he immediately bent down and threw a punch from below, aiming to strike him in the face.

Before he had the chance to think it through, a sudden sharp pain gripped his heart, causing his entire body to contract in response

Next came a strong sense of panic, my heartbeat was completely out of rhythm. This was certainly not a case of love at first sight for the handsome waiter before me, this was...

37 Upon hearing this sound, a sense of dread immediately filled his heart, it was over

Lu Yan clicked his tongue, climbed into the car while holding a coin, and was about to walk to the back when the driver called out to him: "Two yuan!"

Are there many kinds of this? 37 Holding the money, he heard someone behind him click their tongue in impatience, and he felt a bit anxious

Do you still remember who you are?" Amidst the laughter, someone asked him this question in his ear

Ah? What? 37 I felt very confused, and the pleasant mood from eating K was largely diminished. I couldn't remember what the young girl had said, so I had to interrupt her again, "No, no, it's too troublesome. Just give me a meal."

In summary, to commemorate his unknown number of returns to the human world, he decided to have a meal at KFC

He did not answer, listening to the sound of the oars cutting through the water, and sighed: "What is the next line?"

Every time he heard that sound, he knew it was over, yet he still stubbornly shouted at Meng Po, "Throw it over!"

"Milk tea," the shadowy figure chuckled twice in a sharp voice, shaking a cup-like object in hand, "Explosive egg milk tea, exclusively crafted. Once you finish it, you can immediately forget everything and be reborn."

Thus, the waiter spoke in a very low voice, but he was still heard, which made him feel very embarrassed. He turned around and pointed at the waiter, saying: "What did you say?"

Why seek?

He excitedly spun between the tables, stepping on the waiter's mop several times.

The waiter seemed to be waiting for him to speak, holding onto the mop without moving

Based on the experience over the past 37 periods, some individuals feel uncomfortable once they enter, unable to stay for long, and will be ejected within a few minutes. This also exacerbates their already weakened state during the day, to the point where they can barely see themselves, resembling a transparent plastic bag

Lu Yan bypassed him and walked quickly ahead, while the man behind him harshly exclaimed: "Where have you been hanging out!"

Upon entering K Restaurant, 37 felt very excited, as it was his first time stepping into K Restaurant and he could smell the aroma of the food inside.

Lu Yan searched for a long time but was unable to find a second steel spring, so he had no choice but to throw five yuan into the coin box and sat down in the last row

Due to being in the old town, the large potholes created by heavy trucks on the road have not been repaired for almost a year. After it rains, the deeper potholes can even hold water for fish. At night, one can hear the sound of tires bursting; Lu Yan has counted them during sleepless nights, and on some nights, as many as ten vehicles can have tire blowouts.

The waiter is quite tall, has a good physique, and is also very handsome, with a healthy wheat-colored complexion that he likes

The shadow took two steps forward: "Do you not know how he died? Is it that child who never seems to die again? How many times has he come in the past two months?"

No one answered him, the sounds of the old bridge and the water by his ears also vanished, he could hear nothing, see nothing, and feel nothing, as if the surroundings had solidified.

37 Lying down with eyes closed, not intending to open them, as there is nothing to see anyway.

Two blocks, air-conditioned vehicle. The driver stared at him

No one can speak, this boat has been ridden many times, it is filled with newly deceased souls, fresh little spirits, these ghosts cannot make a sound, nor do they have the capacity to do so, all are preoccupied with confusion and fear

I don't remember," he said simply

It is me, 37 also moves forward, stands at the bow of the ship, extends a hand, "Sister, quickly give me a cup... a bowl... a can... What did you send today?"

This section of the road is quite dilapidated, lacking streetlights and shops

Finding a body is quite troublesome, as it requires trying one by one

After standing in place for a long time, he slowly turned and walked to the glass door of the nearby store to take a look. The glass reflected the figures of passersby, but not his own.

This person probably did not expect the plot to develop in such a way, hesitated for two seconds, and then lunged for the knife on the ground

What is the next sentence

Sister Meng has arrived. " That hoarse voice said from behind 37.

How did that person die? Guan Ning asked

As he walked through the worst stretch, Lu Yan heard footsteps behind him

"Who?" 37 suddenly opened his eyes wide, and everything around him was pitch black, with nothing visible.

Yes, there are hamburgers, chicken legs, chicken wraps

Yes, again

These feelings made 37 somewhat uncomfortable, but the body was suitable. After all, it was just a meal, and it wouldn't take too long. He turned his head and walked towards K's place, took out the wallet from this person's pocket and looked at it, finding several hundred yuan.

The young girl felt somewhat embarrassed and did not speak, while the attendant mopping the floor quietly remarked, "If you don't even have the intelligence to eat fast food, what are you eating for?"

"Hmm, envious, are you? Would you like to switch with me?" he said irritably with his eyes closed

37 moved forward slightly, and in the light, a board extending from the riverbank could be seen

Which one would you like? the young girl asked

Who am I again

I did not say anything. The waiter stopped mopping the floor, stood up straight and looked at him, lightly tapping his fingers on the mop handle

Before Lu Yan could speak again, Guan Ning hung up the phone

"Bacon mushroom rice, skillfully prepared Mapo chicken rice..." The young girl lowered her head and began to recite the names of the dishes again

Each person's footsteps are unique, yet there are generally only a few types, which are easily distinguishable for Lu Yan

Only after he had almost finished did he glance over at the counter, where there was a line. He casually chose a queue and stood at the back, slowly moving forward with the crowd.

The young girl glanced at him and said: "Yes, New Orleans grilled chicken leg burger, spicy chicken leg burger, country-style chicken leg burger, deep-sea cod burger, and so on..."

Lu Yan sidestepped to avoid him, grabbing his arm and pulling him along with the momentum, causing the man to lurch forward and stumble out.

I am unemployed, I was dismissed

"Then go ahead and poke it." Lu Yan replied

You ... ... '' 37 wanted to speak, but after seeing this person's face, he paused for a moment, staring at the person and instantly forgetting what he wanted to say

Dying once and again, the old bridge listens over and over, never to hear the next line, it is simply heart-wrenching

Lu Yan stopped, neither turning around nor moving: "No."

"Go back," a voice said in his ear, "go back to find yourself"

Ah! 37 couldn't help but shout, and everyone in line turned to look at him. The waiter who was mopping the floor also stopped to watch him, which made him very frustrated. He put the money back in his pocket, as he couldn't make sense of what the young girl was saying. He never expected that eating at K would be so troublesome. Feeling very annoyed, he turned and walked out of the line, saying, "If eating fast food is this difficult, why do you even run a restaurant? I'm not eating!"

Again

After about ten minutes, it was finally his turn. He took out a one-hundred-yuan bill and waved it at the young lady taking orders, saying: "I would like a serving of KFC."

Four of them: one drowned, two died of illness, and the last one died under unknown circumstances

Eh? A hoarse voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Where to find

This person is the latter

However, he does not remember much after death; the only memories that can be recalled are of recently spending time back and forth on the ferry in the underworld.

The deliberately softened footsteps behind me are clearly not those of a passerby

He waved his hand at the glass, jumped twice, and finally squatted down in disappointment

Isn't it one piece? Lu Yan was taken aback; he only had a steel coin on him.

The next line after "摇到外婆桥" is "问她要几斤"

In fact, it is not only K that he has not tasted; he has not experienced anything else either. In his remaining memories, it seems that before his first death, he had never stepped outside. His world is a vast maze composed of many gray and white rooms, and he only remembers that it was a research institute

The hoarse voice chuckled, the laughter quite unpleasant, and then sighed: "You might as well continue with the Grandmother Bridge."

Finding a suitable body to inhabit takes a considerable amount of time, 37 is quite a lot, and there is probably no other spirit more leisurely than him. He has no idea why he is trapped in the human realm, wandering aimlessly every day.

Find myself

This robber is a novice. Lu Yan could tell from his voice and the way he hesitated and rambled on for a long time that he was inexperienced. With all this unnecessary chatter, the victim would have long since fled without a trace.

Lu Yan struck his wrist with a backhand chop, and the knife that was thrust towards Lu Yan fell to the ground

When he fell to the ground with a blackout in front of his eyes, he heard a chorus of exclamations from all around.

He knows where he is and also knows where he is going

"Another one has died." A hoarse voice ceased its muttering and spoke a sentence very close to him

The hoarse-voiced boatman refers to this thing as a bridge, and he even calls it the Naihe Bridge. When I first heard this at 37, I was deeply shocked and could not believe my eyes

After arriving at the station, only Lu Yan remained on the bus. After he got off, the driver directly skipped the next stop where he would have turned and drove straight along the road.

The phone call was made by Guan Ning, and as soon as it was connected, he directly asked, "What is wrong with you?"

Another one has died

37 is quite frustrating, and also disappointing, of course, there is a bit of embarrassment as well. In this day and age, there are probably not many people who cannot even place an order at K.

A sharp female voice exclaimed, "How many did you bring?" A shadow appeared in the light.

K Note

After squatting in front of the glass door for a while, I looked up and realized this was a K restaurant

Completed

Sister, you are quite well-informed... Lu Yan stood up and walked towards the bus station

Perhaps he was unable to be reborn because his long-cherished wish remains unfulfilled, or perhaps his long-cherished wish is simply to have a meal at KFC

Acute myocardial infarction, Lu Yan touched his pocket and after a long while finally found a steel spring, "I just said one thing... By the way, I think you can assign me some work now"

Suddenly feeling very nervous, my hands are trembling a bit

After a little while, 37 saw a faint light, and he knew he had arrived at his destination
