God Bestows Evil

Chapter 428 Zhao Zixuan’s Story

"I live in a small county in the north, and my alma mater is a high school in the county."

"Like most schools, there are some strange legends circulating here."

"For example, this place was originally a mass grave. The school was built on top of it to use the students' yang energy to suppress lonely ghosts. Under the foundation of the school, there are also Bagua arrays to ward off evil spirits."

"Another example is that before the school was built, this was a bustling restaurant street. A vicious vendor poisoned the food, causing a large number of deaths."

Upon hearing this, Wu Xian shrugged.

Schools, hospitals, and funeral homes are three popular locations for ghost stories.

Zhao Zixuan rubbed his face.

"But I'm not interested in these stories. The mass graves were built just because the land was cheap. The legends about poisoning in restaurants were just rumors deliberately spread by the school to scare us from eating at off-campus food stalls. "

"I'm really tired and I'm not in the mood to discuss these things with my classmates."

"The time of senior high school students is very tight. Morning self-study starts at six o'clock and evening self-study ends at ten o'clock. There is only half a day of rest every week."

"I am still a day student and ride my bicycle to and from school every day. This means that I have to get up at five o'clock in the morning and go to bed at 11 o'clock at night at the earliest. If it is winter, the wind will blow while riding. It’s like shaving your face with a knife.”

"Such a long study time did not help me learn more."

"Without enough rest and too much pressure, my state in class was extremely poor. I was groggy all day, half asleep and half awake. The biggest meaning of staying in school was to extend my attendance time so that others could brag about it. These students work really hard.”

"The teacher always had a straight face. Whenever I wanted to take a rest, he would always appear on time, wake me up and scold me with broken truths, as if I couldn't sleep for six hours a day. How sinful it is to try to sleep."

"My classmates all have the same expressions as me, numb and sleepy, but they are also very noisy occasionally, maybe because they also have happy things in their lives."

"My parents are also very busy at work. At first, they were willing to cook for me when I left early and came home late. But after a while, when I got up every morning, I could only see change on the table and all the food was gone. If I have to deal with it outside, sometimes I won’t even see them for several days, and even if I do, there won’t be much warmth.”

"This life is like **** to me."

These words sounded a little depressing.

Xiong Gang kept sighing. The more he listened to Zhao Zixuan's story, the more he regretted that he could not save the child.

Gong Xiujuan sympathized with his experience, but Fu Jian couldn't understand the annoyance because of the generation gap.

Wu Xian shook his head slightly. The high schools in Fuyuan City were not so demanding, and he was very good at having fun for himself when he was in school, and was regarded as a thorn in the teacher's side because of this.

Zhao Zixuan changed his tone.

"On days like this, the one that gives me the greatest warmth is a small restaurant outside the school."

"This small restaurant looks very shabby. There are very few customers. Most of them are elderly people. The owner is a very kind-looking mother-in-law. Every time I come here, she will prepare the meals in advance."

"The food here is very cheap and suits my taste very well. My mother-in-law is very good to me. When there are things at school that require my parents' cooperation, I usually come to my mother-in-law to solve the problem. After entering the senior year of high school, this mother-in-law is the only one who treats me well." A gentle person.”

"I don't know how long this numb life lasted."

"Suddenly one day, I passed out due to lack of rest. When I woke up in the hospital, everything changed."

Zhao Zixuan's tone became brisk. "The teacher never scolded me again. I can lie down on the table and rest when I can't hold on any longer."

"My classmates are also more friendly to me, and they all take the initiative to make friends with me. Although they sometimes look at me strangely, my life in school is finally fun."

"My mother cooked for me again. I could eat hot meals every morning and evening. I don't know if it was an illusion. My mother's cooking skills have improved and her meals are delicious every day. But because of time issues, I still rarely eat them. See them."

"After my mood improved, I even felt that my brain became brighter and my academic performance improved steadily."

"The only shortcoming of such a beautiful day is that the mother-in-law's small restaurant is closed, but I don't care too much, because at this time I no longer need the mother-in-law to provide me with comfort."

"But gradually, I realized that something was wrong in my life."

"No matter where I go, I often see the bodies of small animals, pigeons, cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, all of these small animals have no heads."

"The aunt in the school cafeteria is also complaining that some of the ingredients purchased by the school are missing. They are all chicken heads, duck heads and the like."

"The enthusiasm of my classmates gradually turned into fear and alienation from me, and the teacher's concern for me gradually turned into pity. I wonder if it was a sequelae of the last time I fainted. I often had fragments and lost my memory for a short period of time. "

"What's even weirder is my home. My clothes started to smell bad, and my sheets and bedding haven't been changed for a long time..."

these anomalies.

It made Zhao Zixuan feel a little uneasy.

But his busy schoolwork took up a lot of his time. He didn't have the ability or time to investigate the cause of this abnormality, so he could only dawdle day after day.

Until one day.

The school will hold a swearing-in meeting.

Zhao Zixuan and his classmates were going to the basement of the school to move some of the equipment stored there to the rostrum.

But the moment he entered the basement, Zhao Zixuan fainted. When he woke up from the hospital, he found that he had an unbearable stench. When he returned to school, his classmates were avoiding him, as if he was a **** of plague!

He went to the teacher and asked what happened.

The head teacher patted his shoulder with a pity expression and said: "I know the death of your parents has dealt a big blow to you, but you can't go on like this. If you need help, you must come to me. I and I Your classmates will help you.”

"Parents died?" Zhao Zixuan felt like he was struck by lightning, "When did this happen? Why didn't I know!"

The head teacher's eyes widened: "Your parents passed away three months ago. There was an accident in the factory. Both of them died in the accident. You were still fainted and hospitalized at the time..."

Zhao Zixuan couldn't listen to what was going on.

Inexplicable grief welled up in my heart.

Behind the grief, there was also a hint of panic.

If his parents are already dead, then who has been cooking for him these past three months?
