Become a sea squirt larva and eat a brain first

Chen Mu went back to the past and came to another timeline.

Chen Mu met Zhuang Xiaonian in Linyang College, and that was their first encounter.

Admission to the school is based on the scores obtained after the exam.

The first choice of Chen Mu in this timeline was not Linyang College, but Yuhai College. Later, because of his low score, he entered Linyang College.

Therefore, Chen Mu in the Z4 universe chose to modify the grades of Chen Mu in this timeline.

Because of the modification of the grades, Chen Mu in this timeline became a student of Yuhai College.

In this way, the encounter he should have with Zhuang Xiaonian was gone.

"In this way, the opposite sex he can meet and contact will not have Zhuang Xiaonian. Without someone with her personality, can his future still be so happy and satisfied?"

Chen Mu wanted to know the answer to this question.

After Chen Mu was admitted to Yuhai College, he was no different from other students.

Just playing and studying, squandering his youth.

However, this time Chen Mu did not come into contact with the opposite sex he liked.

College life passed in the blink of an eye.

He was still alone.

During the time in college, he also had several girlfriends, but without exception, all ended in breakups.

There are various reasons for breaking up, and if you want to get to the bottom of it, it is inappropriate.

After graduation, Chen Mu started working.

After starting work, he mechanically repeated his work day after day.

After those few relationships in college, he seemed to be completely disappointed in love.

Even if he saw a pretty girl, he would look at her a few more times driven by dopamine, and then look away.

This mechanical life is repeated every day.

Sometimes, he would stare at himself in the mirror, a little confused.

When he was young, he had a dream, and his dream was very simple, just to find a girl and start a family, that's all.

But now he came to his senses and found that he was not qualified to talk about love at all.

He earned money from his work, needed to support himself, and also needed to supplement the family expenses. Even if he had a girl, he couldn't give her happiness.

Even if he abandoned these concerns and didn't consider them, the simplest thing was to find a girl he liked, and she also wanted to like him.

It's too hard.

It's as hard as ascending to heaven.

After being confused, Chen Mu could only put on his clothes and continue to work.

On the other side, Zhuang Xiaonian's situation was similar to Chen Mu's at the moment.

She was also single.

To the most important day of the timeline.

As if it was a fixed fate, a car accident took Zhuang Xiaonian's life.

But Chen Mu in this timeline knew nothing about it, and he didn't know the person named Zhuang Xiaonian.

This time, Chen Mu in this timeline did not commit suicide like before, and if he did not commit suicide, there would be no situation of being possessed by another Chen Mu in the dark information state.

Chen Mu in the Z4 universe did not care, but chose to continue observing.

Chen Mu in this timeline continued to work and continued his boring life.

When he got older, his parents began to urge him to get married.

He also started to get involved in various blind dates.

After many blind dates.

He chose a woman.

And this is not love, this is marriage for marriage.

The two got married and had children.

Although they slept together, Chen Mu and her relationship was not like that of a couple, but more like living together.

The two often had conflicts, and Chen Mu was often complained by her.

Sometimes the two would quarrel.

In this way, time passed longer and longer.

The child grew up day by day, but Chen Mu and her did not change because of the child's growth, and they would still quarrel.

In middle age, Chen Mu faced the pressure of life, the pressure of family, and the complaints of people around him.

He learned to numb himself with alcohol and smoking.

Time passed in a flash.

The children grew up, and Chen Mu was diagnosed with lung cancer.

In his dying moments, he lay on the hospital bed.

What he heard around him was the crying of his children and grandchildren.

Chen Mu recalled the past scenes.

Various memory fragments flashed in his mind.

However, none of the memory fragments made him feel meaningful.

He had lived this life, and lived hard.

But... none of those memory fragments could make him laugh.

The memory fragments in his mind slowly disappeared.

His consciousness also slowly disappeared.

Chen Mu in the Z4 universe watched the life of Chen Mu in this timeline like an audience.

He fell into thought: "Life."

"This is the life of an ordinary person, an ordinary person." Chen Mu, who was in the dark information state, crossed his arms.

The time dimension is like the time bar of a movie.

And life is like a movie.

When the movie starts playing, the time bar will keep moving forward.

It will always move forward until the end of the movie, and then it will stop.

And in the process of pushing the time bar, the picture will keep changing, whether you like it or not.

A person, living, if there is no support of emotion and belief.

He lives like a puppet.

Maybe sometimes, he will cry and laugh, but who knows whether this crying is real crying, and whether this laughing is real laughing?

And only he knows this.

Chen Mu is thinking about the previous timeline.

He met Zhuang Xiaonian.

The two depended on each other and regarded love as the belief of each other's life. In the end, even if they died, they could leave with a smile when recalling the past.

But in this timeline.

He lived like a puppet, living for the sake of living, pushed by time ruthlessly, and finally came to an end.

"It's a very, very boring life, very ordinary, and very boring."

This is the evaluation given by Chen Mu.

It's too difficult for a person to meet someone who likes each other and is suitable for each other in his life.

And for Chen Mu in this timeline, the most suitable person for him is Zhuang Xiaonian.

Because he didn't meet Zhuang Xiaonian, he became a puppet without a soul and spent an ordinary life.

And Zhuang Xiaonian, like other timelines, died at a young age.

"This is the ordinary, limited by material, time, and death, fragile and helpless, sometimes even difficult to live."

"In a short life, you can only live for a hundred years, and these hundred years will pass in the blink of an eye. If you can't find your own meaning, or can't find the meaning of your existence, a hundred years..., it's like wasted."

"When the end comes, I can't even laugh when I think back on my past."

"Sad, pitiful."

Chen Mu muttered.

But, suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind.

He raised his hand.

Before I became a sea squirt larva, wasn't I also a mortal?
