Chapter 121 Ten Years
After hearing this, Pu Zhi trembled and tried to hold back her tears, but she couldn't help sobbing: "I...my...parents...don't...want me...anymore."
The director rolled his eyes with a look of "as expected". He unhappily grabbed little Puzhi and dragged her inside, admonishing her as he walked: "Don't cause trouble in there, hold your anger if you are angry, and please everyone, okay? If you dare to cry when outsiders come, I will beat you to death!"
Little Puzhi’s baby face turned pale, and he was so scared that he could only nod his head and couldn’t speak.
From the age of 5 to 15, she lived in an orphanage for ten years, during which time she suffered countless bullying, frame-ups, beatings, and rotten meals.
Life didn't get better until she learned how to flatter others, threw away her self-esteem and became a person with nothing.
The state subsidizes orphans until they graduate from junior high school, and she successfully graduated from the orphanage when she was 15 years old.
Being penniless and underage, she could only wash dishes in the dirtiest alley restaurant, earning twenty dollars a day, and had to pay ten dollars for each broken plate.
But she had learned to be cautious since she was young, and she knew deeply that everything has a price, so none of the clothes were broken on the first day. However, the boss disliked her for washing too slowly and still deducted five dollars from her.
That fifteen yuan was the first money she earned. Before leaving that day, she drank the tap water used for washing dishes, went out and bought two steamed buns, and successfully survived the day.
Fortunately, it was midsummer, and she found an alley and slept soundly, not feeling cold at all...
Pu Zhi washed dishes in a restaurant for a month, eating only cold water and steamed buns. Although his salary was deducted from time to time with various excuses, he still saved up 200 yuan.
Because her boss disliked her dirtiness, she had to go to a hourly room to wash every now and then.
But later the police discovered that he was employing child labor, the boss was fined, and he himself lost his job.
Fortunately, the police felt sorry for Pu Zhi and donated 5,000 yuan to rent a small room for her. They also helped her go to high school and applied for scholarships for poor students. With this money, she barely paid tuition for three years of high school. She just had to pay for her own living expenses.
Of course, he is not a wealthy man who can keep donating money. Apart from the initial 5,000 yuan, which he spent 4,000 yuan on renting a small room in the old city for a year, he still has 1,000 yuan left for living expenses.
There was no more donation, only occasionally the police would send rice and oil. But Pu Zhi was very grateful for these.
At school, everyone in her class knew that she was an orphan, and because of her poor foundation, her grades were always in the middle or lower ranks.
She is often bullied, and she will do whatever others tell her to do, as long as the other person doesn't hate her.
Everyone was surprised at her good temper. She would not say anything no matter how she was bullied, and even greeted people with a smile. She would not report to the teacher, which made everyone more unscrupulous and bossed her around like a servant. If Pu Zhi didn't have pocket money, she would have given it to others at the slightest word.
Everyone cursed her behind her back, saying that she was born a lowly person. Pu Zhi knew it, but she just smiled, because she had too little and she couldn't afford the price of losing these things, nor did she dare to lose them.
After class every day, she ran three kilometers home, and then set up a stall to sell balloons or sausages. She could earn dozens of yuan a day from these, and saved enough to pay for next year's rent.
But she also fell behind in her studies, and her already poor grades got even worse. In fact, she did try to ask the teacher, but the teacher just replied unintentionally, "You don't even know this?"
It was enough to repel her. Once the teacher at the orphanage used this tone, her life would not be easy for the next few days.
So she could only flip through the book over and over again during breaks, and read for an hour after selling things in the evening. It was already 12 o'clock then. She had to get up at six every morning to attend early self-study.
Even though I tried harder, my grades only improved a little. I was assigned to a regular class in my second year of high school and lived a life that was almost the same as before.
But the more Pu Zhi learned, the more he realized that without a degree he would not be able to find a good job.
So she studied very hard, not daring to miss any class, and finally got into a second-tier university.
She is also the only one in the class who was admitted to a second-tier university. Although many people look down on her, this is already the best result for her.
Pu Zhi matured a lot in college and it became easier for her to work part-time. It was a very happy time for her and she met Song Xin.
Song Xin called her her best friend, and Pu Zhi took it seriously. Later, she learned that Song Xin's father was one of the police officers who donated money, so Pu Zhi decided to be good to Song Xin. However, her parents divorced very early, and she followed her mother, who remarried three times.
…
"Use it." Pu Zhi was already far away from the base at this time. The card in his hand disappeared, and instead a golden line appeared and went towards the front left.
She chased after him without hesitation and used her special powers to find traces of the mutated banyan tree. She wanted to solve this problem for the base before leaving.
He killed a few zombies on the way and opened a new card. After an unknown amount of time, Pu Zhi finally saw the banyan tree indicated by the golden line several thousand meters away.
It was much more low-key than last time. It did not specifically clear a place for itself to grow, but was inconspicuous in the dense woods.
If Pu Zhi didn't have a tracking card, he would have never found it.
"Qingyin, Qianli, come out." As Pu Zhi finished speaking, the two little guys were finally able to come out for some fresh air.
Qianli suddenly became extremely huge, and the green and shady branches expanded wildly, surrounding the mutant banyan tree in a huge circle.
Pu Zhi had already used the invisibility card on himself and Xiao Ren, and had taken the car back. It was always good to be careful or not.
The mutant banyan tree had already noticed such a big commotion, and it was thought that it would attack first, after all, it was the highest level.
Who knew that it would suddenly sprout a root from the ground and sway from side to side.
One of the branches of Qingyin formed the word: It said don't fight.
Qingyin wanted to translate again, but Pu Zhi indicated that it was not necessary and took out the listening conch.
Mutated Banyan Tree: I haven't hit you, so you can't hit me.
Hearing that the voice sounded very much like a human boy's voice, Pu Zhi asked back: "Why, didn't you bring the seeds to Base No. 3?"
Mutant Banyan Tree: Base No. 3? The place with a lot of people? They were the first to start, I just want to get revenge on them!
Pu Zhi said gently: "The person who wanted to kill you is already dead, so there is no need to seek revenge. But if you insist on destroying Base No. 3, we have no choice but to fight."
Although the mutant banyan tree couldn't see Pu Zhi, it could feel where she was. Hearing this, it said angrily: I don't accept it! Humans are very evil, I need to punish them!
Pu Zhi: "Okay, then let's fight first. If you don't attack us right away, you probably don't have the confidence to defeat me, right? Let's see who is stronger."
As soon as he finished speaking, thousands of attack cards floated in front of Pu Zhi. The energy in each card should not be underestimated. If this set of attacks was used, the mutant banyan tree would be seriously damaged if not killed.
What's more, there are three Xiao Rens, and Pu Zhi's energy is also ridiculously huge. All those talents are not wasted.
