time for sysyphus

Because of Tao Die's mother and son, Ji Zhongnian was in a bad mood these days, he only ate a few bites at a time, and couldn't sleep well at night, and his whole body lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing it, Lin Si was very distressed. He carefully took care of Ji Zhongnian's emotions, and he also wanted to make some chicken soup for Ji Zhongnian to nourish his body.

It's been days and I can't do nothing.

One day, Uncle Dong saw that he was going out and asked him why.

After hearing what Lin Si said, Uncle Dong said: "Mr. Lin, if there is anything you want to buy, let's just go."

Lin Si hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'll go in person. I'm the only one who can pick the soup ingredients. Last time the kitchen didn't pick well, and Zhongnian didn't even have a few sips."

"A place like the market is fishy and dirty, not suitable for you."

"Hey, didn't I go there by myself before?" Lin Si smiled and waved his hands, "What's more, I grew up in a slum, so I'm afraid of mess."

For Ji Zhongnian, he could just go into the cesspool.

"That's fine." Uncle Dong was very thoughtful and thoughtful, and helped him arrange things casually, "I'll ask the driver to take you, and then I'll find someone to go with you. That young man is new. He has great strength and can carry a lot of things."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Dong."

Taking advantage of the good weather, Lin Si went out, and he sat in the back seat of the car with the new servant.

Along the way, the car was very quiet. Lin Si couldn't stay idle, and he could open a chatterbox to anyone, so he was excited to find a topic to talk about.

He turned his body a little, and asked the young man sitting next to him with a smile, "I heard from Uncle Dong that you are new here? No wonder I haven't seen you before."

The young man nodded slightly, looked at Lin Si with an indescribable indifference and indifference, and answered him: "Yes, sir, my name is Ah Tong."

"Oh, Ah Tong, which 'tong'? How to write it."

"The rule of the ruler."

"Then your name is quite powerful, haha." Lin Si smiled and narrowed his eyes.

He looked left and right, thinking that it would be a waste for Ah Tong to be a servant. After all, he is tall and strong, with a strong figure, like a walking humanoid tank. In fact, he can be a security guard or a debt collector, which is enough to scare him. people.

Because the car was boring, Lin Si talked again and again, but this Ah Tong was very reticent, and he only responded to him with a short sentence or no response every time, so Lin Si seemed to be talking to himself .

The chatter became more and more deadly this day, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Even Lin Si, a familiar person, couldn't stand it anymore.He patted the back of the driver's chair and said dryly, "...Uncle Chen, play a song and listen to it."

"Hey."

The driver, who was forced to listen to Lin Si's nonsense all the way, heaved a sigh of relief. He wanted to do this for a long time, and immediately pressed the stereo in the car, and a song began to play——

"Can fate not be reversed

just stand still

Maybe the end of the story is already doomed

no way to stop

I want to make an appointment with you to see you next time

meet you again

Even though it hurts and parted countless times

I'm still willing

I'll try my best no matter what

As long as you stand at the origin

It must be the first time when I meet you

end of time and next time

......"

The scene of the East City flew by outside the window, and the singing was gurgling in the car. Lin Si looked out the window chatteringly, thinking of his handsome Mr. Ji, and gently tapped his fingers to the sound of the music.

After four or five songs were played, we arrived at a large market in the suburbs of Dongcheng.

The driver stayed in the car to take a nap. Lin Si and Ah Tong went into the market to buy things. The area was very large. Lin Si went to the coconut stall to pick and choose, and bought several.

After that, he picked two or three fresh corns and carrots, because Ji Zhongnian likes to drink fresh and sweet coconut chicken soup.

Ah Tong followed beside him, helping him carry things all the way, Fei didn't talk much.

When he walked to the black-bone chicken stall, Lin Si carefully selected the best one.The boss also built a small open breeding ground behind the stall, and he brought Lin Si into it so that Lin Si could pick it slowly.

The black-bone chickens were all fat and plump, with their bright black feathers running wild all over the place. Lin Si had sharp eyes to observe which one was more suitable for him.

"Not too fat, not too thin, not too old..." He stood outside the fence, chanting, his eyeballs following the frisky black-bone chickens.

The boss smiled and pointed to him, "That one looks good!"

"Which one?"

"Here, the innermost one, or you can pick and choose, and I'll catch the one you like. All of us here—"

Suddenly, a customer shouted outside: "Boss, are you doing business?"

"Hey! Come on—" the boss turned around and replied.

He left Lin Si here to choose slowly, and hurried to the stall to do business by himself, planning to turn back later.

A group of black-bone chickens clucked and scrambled to eat the chicken feed on the ground. Lin Si stretched his neck and was concentrating on picking.

After a while, he suddenly felt a little...

Some strange, not-so-good premonitions.

Among the noisy and messy cries of black-bone chickens, it seems to be mixed with the sound of approaching footsteps... It is deliberately lightened, and it moves closer step by step, like a ghost wandering over in the middle of the night.

Lin Si suddenly had goosebumps all over his body, and a thought that popped up out of nowhere in his head made him froze involuntarily, pulling two fists to death.

Could it be... Could it be...

This feeling is inexplicably familiar, and for no reason, it made him connect it with some terrible experience in his previous life...

The density of the air seemed to increase, Lin Si was holding his breath, his heart was beating violently due to tension, and he kept making loud noises in his tense brain: "bang", "bang", "bang".

The next second, Lin Si suddenly turned around——!

It's Ah Tong.

A false alarm.

"So it's you..." Linston immediately relaxed and let out a long breath.

He was rendered speechless by his overly sensitive nerves, where did those brain supplements come from, he was simply insane.

Lin Si tilted his head, walked towards Ah Tong with a smile, "I was scared to death, I thought—"

He didn't finish his words, but suddenly cut them off in his mouth, because when he looked down, he saw Ah Tong's hands were empty and he didn't take anything.

"Huh?" Lin Si frowned, and asked him doubtfully, "Where are the coconuts and corn you bought just now?"

Ah Tong didn't answer.

He just looked at Lin Si silently, with a dark cloud-like gloomy look in his eyes, which made Lin Si speechless, and only felt a deep chill crawling across his back.

When Lin Si woke up again, he felt a sharp pain in his head.

He found that his mouth was blocked by cloth strips, his hands, feet, and even his whole body were tied with hemp rope. He was lying on the ground unable to move, and he had lost the ability to move freely.

"Hmm...!" He wanted to shout out, but he could only make a murmuring sound.

Glancing around, the environment seemed strange at first, but after a longer look, the sense of familiarity slowly resurged, and even with a sense of uncertainty like a tsunami, Lin Si was instantly enveloped.

Because he was horrified to find——

This cage-like dilapidated village house, as well as the situation of being imprisoned, make every day unresponsible and the ground unheard, exactly the same as when he was kidnapped by Ji Xiao in his previous life.

All of this is just a copy of the kidnapping case in the previous life? !

When the inhumane experience of being tortured and killed came to mind, dripping cold sweat slid across Lin Si's forehead, stabbed the wound on his head, and flowed into the eyeballs from the corners of his bruised eyes.

No, you can't wait to die here, you must find a way to escape!

Lin Si wanted to sit up, but his hands and feet were tightly bound, and he couldn't even straighten up. The rough rope scraped blood on his wrists and ankles.

After a while, he was already sweating profusely from exhaustion.

However, just as Lin Si was trying to break free from the hemp rope, suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps slowly approaching him, accompanied by the scraping sound of the wooden stick dragging on the ground, which immediately made him feel chilly.

Ji Xiao walked in.

"Hello, Mr. Lin."
