Chengdu, Sichuan.
A man in a white shirt dragged a black suitcase into a bar at the end of Yulin Road.
It was noon, and the "Jiajia Bar" was closed. It was deserted, except for a young man who was clearing away the tables.
The man in the white shirt put down his luggage and looked around with nostalgia, his eyes full of reluctance.
"Li Zi, I'll leave this bar to you."
"Don't worry, Brother Ming. You've been so generous in giving me 20% of the shares. If I don't do my best, then I'd really be a fool." The young man came over and said.
"Be careful with everything. I've already said hello to the security manager Lao Liu and the police officer in charge of this area, Lao Chen. Just take care of it for me and don't cause trouble, you know? This is my four years of hard work." .”
"No problem, Lao Liu and I are now considered your partners, Brother Ming. This bar is also ours, and we will run it carefully." Li Yi, the bar manager, couldn't figure out why the boss Zhang Yanming suddenly wanted to Give him and security manager Liu Ming 20% of the shares each, and they want to leave the city.
Is it because of emotional problems?
I've been dating a beautiful flight attendant girlfriend for two years. I heard that the girl's family is unwilling to allow their daughter to marry a small bar owner. They seem to think that bar owners are not serious people. But if your relationship isn't going well, you shouldn't put down your career and leave. Do you think it's sad to stay in this city?
Li Yi, who came from a bad background, shook his head and couldn't figure it out.
We see a lot of bad things happening between men and women in bars. Every day there are things like sex, wanting to find some excitement, fishing for money, being bored and having fun, and other things like picking up corpses at the door of the bar. Between men and women, that's all. As a bar owner, after seeing so much, is it possible that he still can’t figure it out?
Why hang on a tree?
Zhang Yanming did not explain anything to Li Yi's questions. After explaining clearly, he took his suitcase and got into the car waiting at the door that he had arranged in advance to go to the airport. He was going to fly to Shaanxi.
Go to that mysterious place and live a different life. There shouldn't be so many mundane things that can't hold you back, and you should be able to fly freely there without being bound by the world.
Go back to a week ago.
Zhang Yanming drank a lot of wine with some familiar customers in the store. Two capable employees asked for leave at the same time. He worked for most of the night, was exhausted physically and mentally, and felt dizzy.
After closing in the early morning, Zhang Yanming sat on the booth in the corner, ready to rest and relax for a while.
My girlfriend Zhang Jiajia called. She said that her parents from a scholarly family did not agree with their marriage no matter what. As she talked, Zhang Jiajia started to cry.
In fact, last week, Jiajia's parents called Zhang Yanming home alone for dinner and told Zhang Yanming that he had said that the architect was young, promising and very good. It's great to open a bar now, so let's open a bar properly... He left without finishing the meal. He went to the pier and sat alone, thinking for a long time...
She probably didn't know it yet, and she probably didn't expect that her parents had just gotten a breakup promise from Lao Zhang.
Zhang Yanming comforted her for a long time, and after a moment of silence, he asked her seriously what she thought.
Zhang Jiajia sobbed: "I don't know!"
After comforting her for a while, Zhang Yanming slumped down on the sofa seat after hanging up the phone. After holding on for so long, it seemed that she still couldn't convince her parents.
On one side is the career you like, and on the other side is love.
Her parents insisted that he take the civil service exam before they agreed.
But Zhang Yanming knew that if he really followed what her parents said and took the civil service examination, the mediocre life of working nine to five every day would definitely not be what Zhang Yanming wanted.
Thinking about the beautiful love life before and the difficult post-love life now, Zhang Yanming burst into tears and was heartbroken.
"Ah..." Zhang Yanming roared loudly, then picked up the wine on the table and poured it into his mouth.
"Boss, please stop drinking." After seeing this, Li Yi stepped forward and snatched the wine from Zhang Yanming's hand.
Zhang Yanming wiped his face and said nonchalantly: "Okay, I'm fine. You should finish your work early and go back to rest early." After saying that, he stood up and staggered out. Several bar employees thought He went to help him, but was stopped by Li Yi.
Li Yi knew that the boss was a person with strong self-control and a strong self-esteem.
Zhang Yanming walked up and down, swaying, to the bank of Jinjiang River.
Looking at the night view of Chengdu, with its bright lights, the city is beautiful, but he has never been able to build a warm home of his own here.
Although Zhang Yanming is not a native of Chengdu, he particularly likes this city.
Chengdu is the dream of many people.
This is a city kissed by God.
"Two mountains and one plain, three thousand years of fireworks", the western Sichuan plain is rich in natural resources and has been relatively peaceful for the past hundred years. Few people living here have a strong sense of crisis. Coupled with the vigorous expansion of Huguang into Sichuan during the Qing Dynasty, Chengdu, which is full of immigrants, is tolerant and modest, never exclusive and full of warmth.
In the embrace of Daci Temple and Chunxi Road, from Shamao Street to Tianxian Bridge, from East Street to Xizi Palace, Taikoo Li and luxury stores have not swallowed up the ancient buildings here. They are hidden in modern steel buildings and cleverly integrated. . The sense of boundary between ancient and modern times is so textured, like the branches of an old tree growing new buds, melting away naturally and appropriately. Just like the Funan River in Chengdu, everything comes naturally.
Tianshui Shuihui, Zhong Dumplings, Heming Tea House, Jinli, Wuhou Temple, Chunxi Road, Jiuyan Bridge, food, beauties, scenery, history, culture, chess and cards, tea art, and nightclubs. In nine days, Chengdu is opened, and tens of thousands of households and doors enter the picture.
Chengdu is like the white moonlight in people's hearts. There is a Chengdu hidden in everyone's heart, where all the ideals of the world are held.
Many people die in their twenties and thirties. They become a shadow of themselves, and the rest of their lives just repeat themselves. Zhang Yanming doesn't want to be that person.
Although Zhang Yanming graduated from the Department of Architecture of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, he is a small bar owner with a music dream and a girl Jiajia whom he loves to the core.
Jiajia: I don’t want a man who doesn’t have the courage to pursue his ideals!
Jiajia’s parents: It’s not that we don’t understand love, but we understand life and family better. We can marry an architect, but we definitely can’t marry someone who opens a bar and sings.
Thirty-two-year-old Zhang Yanming felt that many things were beyond his ability, and a sense of powerless frustration arose spontaneously.
My heart keeps sinking.
At this moment, Zhang Yanming was heating up somewhere inside his body without knowing it. It was as if his soul had drifted out of his body. Everything seemed to be still, as if his surroundings were isolated from the outside world and time and space had stagnated.
In the morning he was a farmhouse man, and in the evening he ascended to the Emperor's Hall.
Youth is at the right time, don’t let it pass you by.
boom……
Just like the bell on the top of the mountain that strikes at the beginning and the verse of Bao chants loudly, it is deep, loud, long, honest, and profound, and the listener is far away...
A thick spiritual energy vibration wave shook and overflowed from Zhang Yanming's body.
Zhang Yanming, who was in a special state of mind, woke up.
Zhang Yanming didn't know it, and his soul was still drunk, like a drunkard.
The supervisor in charge of this area rushed to Jinjiang with sleepy eyes.
Is this guy falling out of love and wanting to jump into the river, or is he drunk and acting stupidly? It's really annoying to run to the riverside to wake up so late!
Lang Feihu yawned and said, "Brother, don't let your imagination run wild! If you fall into the river so late, others will think that I have a grudge against you and that I pushed you down."
Zhang Yanming, who has been drinking on the battlefield, naturally has a better drinking capacity than others, but he was just too sad and the alcohol got to his head.
He turned around and looked curiously at the strange man who appeared behind him late at night.
"Hey, don't move, don't move, oh..." Although Lang Feihu spoke up in time, he couldn't stop Zhang Yanming from turning around.
It turned out that Zhang Yanming had his hand on the railing, and he hadn't let go when he turned around. With such a random movement, the railing was broken off.
Zhang Yanming looked at the railing in his hand in surprise. Is the welding point weak? Otherwise, why is it so brittle?
Bang.
Zhang Yanming loosened his hand and flicked it, and the railing in his hand fell to the ground with a clang. The railing on the bank, which was still intact, was cut into two pieces by a stream of cyan energy thrown from Zhang Yanming's hand.
The solid railing was cut open by Zhang Yanming's cyan energy as easily as cutting tofu.
"Don't move." Lang Feihu said helplessly, covering his forehead.
I go.
Is this a movie, or is Xiao Li flying a knife...
Only then did Zhang Yanming notice something strange about his body. After careful sensing, he found that his whole body was comfortable and free, as if there was a volcano hidden in his body, with surging power surging in his body, and every move he made was filled with surging energy.
Zhang Yanming was dumbfounded. What happened to his body? He didn't know what was going on, and looked at Lang Feihu, stunned there, motionless.
Every place you wake up is a scene of overturning.
Compared with the ordinary type, in addition to basic strengthening, this Zhang Yanming seems to have one more special ability.
It took Lang Feihu a long time to explain clearly to Zhang Yanming. Regardless of supernatural powers, supernatural powers, or divine powers, Zhang Yanming felt that the whole world was turned upside down. It seems that people are only living on the surface of society. When the veil of the surface is lifted, there are still unknown monsters, monsters and monsters hidden underneath.
It's just that these mysterious things are not easily accessible. Zhang Yanming spent two days and thought carefully. Since the love he was pursuing so hard could not be realized and he couldn't get it, he might as well give it a try and try that mysterious and different life. So Zhang Yanming contacted Lang Feihu and decided to participate in the mysterious selection of the MANA Association to see that magical world.
After arriving at the airport, passing the security check, and after boarding time, Zhang Yanming pulled his suitcase and walked into the boarding gate.
The beautiful stewardess at the boarding hatch of the plane was stunned when she saw Zhang Yanming, and then returned to normal working condition.
Zhang Yanming didn't know what to say, so he walked to his seat wordlessly, put away his luggage, and sat down, but his eyes were always focused on the beautiful stewardess at the boarding gate. That was his girlfriend Zhang Jiajia, but he didn't expect such a coincidence that they were on the same flight.
Jiajia, please give me a smile next time we meet!
You've been thinking about it for so long. If you don't have an answer, don't be brave.
Jiajia, let’s all admit defeat to our parents. I still have Tianya, but they only have you!
You will never receive a drunk phone call from me again. If I persist a little longer, I will soon forget you.
Zhang Yanming is the lead singer in the bar, and he often sings songs composed by himself. Although it is relatively niche, it is also liked by many young people.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the plane began to descend and reached its destination.
Zhang Yanming waited until all the passengers had left, then he got up, picked up his luggage, and walked to the hatch, where Zhang Jiajia was standing there looking at him with a complicated expression.
"Jiajia, I give up. I will leave this city where we fell in love, and you won't have to make it difficult anymore." Zhang Yanming said with a wry smile, pretending to be cool.
What Jiajia hopes to see is Zhang Yanming who does not give in to obstacles and has the courage to pursue his dreams. Zhang Yanming, on the other hand, just hopes that Jia Jia can live a better life and that their shared dream can be realized.
Starting today, the two of us really become two.
Zhang Jiajia's eyes turned red and tears almost flowed out, but out of professionalism, she held back the tears.
Seeing the heartbroken look of his sweetheart, Zhang Yanming did not dare to hug her or touch her body, for fear of her and fear that he would not be able to bear it.
The world has both peace and harmony, and I will live up to the Tathagata and live up to you!
"I'm leaving. Jiajia, please give me a smile next time we meet!"
Why does the world suddenly become so blurry, why does my heart hurt so much, and why does my body feel so uncomfortable!

Taiyuan Shanxi.
The Chen family is a well-known and prominent family in Huai'an Town. As one of the top ten high-grade families, the clan has a prosperous population and a prosperous inheritance. It is also considered to be relatively high among the top-grade families.
As the head of the family, the old man Chen Qingyuan knows very well that working behind closed doors will only lead to self-reliance. Letting the young people in the family go out is the best training for growth.
Therefore, Chen Beini, who is extremely talented among the younger generation, was arranged by her grandfather to participate in this year's secret realm selection.
"Xiao Liu, this time I have arranged for you to accompany the young lady to the secret realm. Do you know what I mean? If the young lady makes any mistakes, do you know what the consequences will be!" In the courtyard of the main house of the Chen family, a young man knelt in the inner room of the main house. In front of the old man.
Although the old man is older and has gray hair, he is strong in spirit, strong in body, full of aura and extremely majestic.
"Xiao Liu knows, please rest assured, Xiao Liu will never let the eldest lady lose even a hair! The master is very kind to Xiao Liu. If the master hadn't picked me up from the garbage heap, Xiao Liu would have died a long time ago. Xiao Liu Liu doesn't read much, but he still knows how to be grateful. If someone wants to hurt the eldest lady, he can only step over Xiao Liu's body."
"Well, go ahead. Be careful!" Chen Qingyuan waved his hand gently.
A beautiful girl who looked like a lady came in and said, "Oh, grandpa, I'm just going to participate in the selection. There's no need to be so exaggerated about arranging bodyguards for me, right?" Chen Qingyuan couldn't do anything about this precious granddaughter. She didn't look like she was trained by a martial arts family. She looked like a coquettish girl.
"Okay, let's go."
"Okay, let's go then." Chen Beini stood in the sun and waved. The sun was shining brightly, just like a delicate girl with long hair on campus.
"Miss, let me take the luggage." Deng Liu took the luggage and walked outside to Odyssey, who had been waiting for a long time.
All over the country, young people with inheritance like Niu Weiqing and Zhang Yanming who have naturally awakened, or Chen Beini, who are qualified to participate in the secret realm selection, are all gathering in Shaanxi.
In recent years, the number of awakened people has increased, and the selection has been changed from biennial to annual. The seventh secret realm selection, which is in full swing, is about to begin.
The mysterious world and the wonderful pictures are slowly beginning to unfold.
