"I'm really unlucky today!" In a dilapidated rented house in the urban village, Lin Tianyu turned on his old computer that had been used countless times. After waiting for more than two minutes to turn it on, he opened the website where he wrote his novel and looked at the data of his novel on the computer screen.
Lin Tianyu, male, 1.7 meters tall, not too tall, not too short. He had an ordinary appearance and was not eye-catching in a crowd. He was almost 24 years old and was still single. He was one of the most failed web novelists. Ever since his parents passed away when he was in his teens, he became an orphan. He really ate his fill and his family did not starve.
He was originally from a small town near the Qinling Mountains. It was just a small town in the mountains. It was not considered developed and poor. Ever since his parents passed away, he did not have the money to pay his tuition fees and daily living expenses, so he directly dropped out of school. After he stopped going to school, he had been working outside. He no longer had any relatives at home and had not returned to his hometown for a long time. Now, he lived in an urban village. It was a rented house. The narrow corridor was mostly occupied by people. The living conditions could be said to be very poor.
Moreover, Lin Tianyu had to go down to the second floor for water. There was no place to take a bath. When he took a bath, he could only go to a few public bathhouses in the village. The conditions were very poor.
Of course, the rent was also relatively cheaper. The monthly rent was 300 yuan, the electricity was 1 yuan per hour, and the hygiene and water fees were 5 yuan per person. The monthly expenses in this area added up to only 550 yuan. This was the basic expenditure.
However, in the summer, when it was hot and stuffy, they had to go to the roof to sleep. As long as they were not afraid of mosquito bites, they would take mosquito coil incense. Now that it was winter, the ten-square-meter room was crowded and cold. It had to be lit with honeycomb briquettes, which was a big expense.
Lin Tianyu had never wanted to be a web novelist, but because he was an orphan and had been bullied by hooligans, he was a little introverted. Although he was not yet 24 years old, he was still considered a person who had been making a living for many years. He dropped out of junior high school and started working. He had done many jobs, such as moving bricks, loading goods, and working as a waiter. Because of his introverted personality, he had suffered a lot of losses and developed a sense of disgust. He resigned one after another.
In the end, because he loved reading novels, he tried to write one. He realized that although it was a flop, it could still help him earn some living expenses. Anyway, he had enough to eat for himself and the whole family, so he completely joined the ranks of writers and became a glorious otaku.
Lin Tianyu was complaining about his bad luck. Because winter was coming, he had to rely on himself to keep warm. The cost of writing novels had already made Lin Tianyu's life tight. Although he still had a little savings, he did not want to touch it. If something happened, his savings could still be used for emergencies. He wanted to work part-time during the day and stay up late at night to write novels.
After saving some manuscripts, he went out to look for a job. After a day of running around, he saw several job advertisements from several shops. Lin Tianyu went to ask about them, but the shop owner saw Lin Tianyu's appearance and shook his head coldly after a few words. At first, Lin Tianyu was still energetic after being rejected, but before he could enter the door, he was rejected one after another. He was a little numb and discouraged.
"Clang!" At dusk, when Lin Tianyu was on his way home, he passed by a hawker gathering place in the urban village. He stepped into a small stall selling groceries and jewelry and kicked out an iron plate ornament from the stall.
"F * ck, kid, how do you walk? Do you have eyes?”At that time, the peddler could not take it anymore.
It was almost the end of the year, and it was not easy to do business with a small stall. The cold wind was blowing, and there were many fewer people shopping. The stall had only opened not long ago, and they had not made a single deal. How could they let it go? The first business deal was settled, and it was very likely that he would earn a lot. However, it depended on this unlucky guy's temper.
When Lin Tianyu kicked the peddler's things, he came back to his senses. When he saw that he had kicked someone else's things, the peddler would not blame him. He saw that the thing he kicked out was an iron plate with a half-black and half-red Eight Trigrams drawn on it. The iron item was naturally not damaged at all.
However, the peddler had made up his mind. The first business had fallen on Lin Tianyu, so he immediately refused to let it go. Seeing that Lin Tianyu did not say anything, he tacitly agreed and immediately said,"You broke my baby. Pay for it!”
This shout attracted the attention of passers-by. The nature of the people who wanted to join in the fun was undoubtedly exposed, and they all surrounded this place.
Lin Tianyu was annoyed, but because of his introverted personality, he didn't want to be entangled with him. Looking at the metal plate that he had kicked out of the stall, he didn't know why, but the desire to buy it surged in his heart. Therefore, he didn't pester him and simply said,"A piece of metal jewelry costs ten yuan, right?”
He often passed by here. Although he had never bought anything, he knew the price of these hawkers.
" No way, this is a treasure!" The peddler was very cunning. When he saw how easy Lin Tianyu was to talk to, he immediately wanted to ask for an exorbitant price.
"Either we do business peacefully, or I leave immediately. The iron plate is a metal product, and it's broken by a light kick from me? Who are you trying to bluff? Even if I don't buy it, you can't do anything to me. I've lived here for several years. You can buy anything from a stall like this for ten yuan. I know what the price is. You want to extort me? You're wrong!”Lin Tianyu frowned and interrupted the peddler impatiently.
"You!" The peddler was a little disappointed when he saw Lin Tianyu's impolite words. Moreover, Lin Tianyu's words were not wrong at all. He was also from this area. Moreover, the people surrounding him were pointing at him. It seemed that his blackmailing idea would not work.
"You're lucky!" The peddler said resentfully. Lin Tianyu picked up the iron plate and put it in his pocket. He threw down ten yuan and left without wasting time with the peddler.
When he returned home, he recalled that he had spent ten yuan on a useless metal plate. Ten yuan was enough for him to buy some noodles and eat several meals. He regretted it. At that time, he had only pestered him for a while. If he did not buy it, the hawker could not do anything. He did not break the metal plate, and his living expenses had been reduced by ten yuan.
Unexpectedly, the unfortunate thing was not over yet. After returning home, he made some noodles. After dinner, he went downstairs to wash the dishes. The water from the tap downstairs was cold, making his hands red from the cold. He refused to obey orders and accidentally broke the bowl. When he was cleaning up the broken pieces of the bowl, his right pinky scratched the broken pieces of the bowl and blood flowed out. After cleaning up, he went back to his room and grabbed a piece of cloth to wrap the wound.
Lin Tianyu typed in a depressed mood. He usually didn't feel this way, but now that his right pinky was injured, he felt very awkward and in the way.
"Anyway, in order to find part-time jobs, I've already saved some manuscripts.”Lin Tianyu muttered gloomily and closed the writing software.
After watching the TV series and novels that he had been following online for a while, he opened the game and started playing.
Lin Tianyu had been playing dnf games intermittently for several years. Sometimes, he would leave it behind when he was unwilling to play. Sometimes, he would pick it up again when he was bored and wanted to play for a while. He had never spent a single cent in the game. He used whatever equipment he got. Moreover, because he was introverted, he did not have many friends. It was difficult to form a team. Moreover, the broken computer at home was fine for him to play on his own. If he formed a team, he would often be stuck. He simply did not team up with others to farm monsters. He played alone and reached level 40 or 50. When farming monsters became difficult, he would create a side account and start playing from the first level. He was familiar with the low-level maps, but he did not know what the high-level maps looked like.
His gaming skills were also terrible. He went to the arena a few times and maintained a record of total defeat. He was abused a few times and never went back again. There were probably not many people who played games like him.
The character that Lin Tianyu was currently controlling was the one that he had created yesterday. He was playing the Night Messenger, and he could change his class to Necromancer, Bi Fang Flame, Assassin, etc. Lin Tianyu wanted to change his class to Ninja of Bi Fang Flame. Ninja was a new character that he had never played before, so he wanted to try something new. Anyway, he probably only changed his class once. It was not easy to farm alone, so he would give up on this character again and create a new character.
He leveled up very quickly in the early stages. Now that he had changed his class to Bi Fang Flame, he thought that he was a ninja. He was playing the map of the monsters in Gloomy Jungle. As he played, Lin Tianyu felt something in his pocket that made him very uncomfortable. He looked at the computer and put his hand into his pocket. He casually took out something that made him uncomfortable.
"F * ck!" Feeling the pain from the wound on his hand, Lin Tianyu couldn't help but curse.
Lin Tianyu took a look and saw that it was his little finger, which he had wrapped with a cloth strip after being cut. Because when he was taking something out of his pocket, the cloth strip wrapped around his little finger fell off, and the wound actually bled again.
Lin Tianyu looked at the culprit who had made him uncomfortable in his pocket and caused his wound to open again. He could not help but slap him on the computer desk hatefully. It was the iron plate that had caused him to spend ten yuan in vain.
"Pa!" Lin Tianyu slammed the metal plate on the computer table and it shook a few times. Lin Tianyu didn't notice that when he slammed the metal plate on the computer table, a few drops of blood from his little finger wound dripped onto the metal plate.
