Chapter 642 Tears become a river

This time, Lin Han was not planning to modify the cultural background of the novel, mainly because he could not modify it.

If the story of "Rejuvenation" takes place in China, it would be from the founding of the People's Republic of China to the early 21st century. Lin Han was not clear about what happened during this period and could not completely combine the protagonist with these historical events!

If you have to do this, it would be an extremely huge project. What Lin Han lacks the most now is time, so he simply uses the background of the movie to write faster.

People in China may even believe in this strange and strange story abroad and regard it as a real person.

Anyway, it is a short story, so there shouldn't be anyone scolding me, so after weighing the pros and cons, Lin Han found an excuse and could only fool himself!

Fitzgerald once admitted that the inspiration for the creation of this work was inspired by a sentiment from Mark Twain, and life always begins in the best state and ends at the worst time.

In fact, this joke is not new in China. Various creative ideas are released in the online literature circle. Even "Herberian" is not the first. Before that, there was also the book "Notes" by Samuel Butler.

But these books regard rejuvenation as a gimmick. Fitzgerald puts such a fantasy story of time in a specific context of the era, which is even more shocking!

After deciding to write this short story, Lin Han recalled that if the story is outlined, of course it is very simple. It is nothing more than Benjamin Patton's fantasy life, this magical novel of retrograde time!

His time was contrary to normal people. He was just born as an octogenarian in his seventies or eighties. His mother died of dysfunction and was abandoned by his father at birth. A black couple working in a nursing home adopted him and gave him infinite love and wisdom.

From World War I to the 21st century, as time goes by, Benjamin becomes younger and younger. After experiencing the stories of studying, getting married and joining the army, it spans nearly a hundred years, and finally died quietly in the arms of temperament as a baby.

Time is intertwined with ups and downs of legendary contradictions throughout life, and the world is like a dream.

The beginning of the story tells the story of a watchmaker: during World War I, his son went to join the army, but when the war ended in 1918, his son unfortunately died in a foreign country. The watchmaker made a wall clock at the railway station, but the wall clock walked upside down!

The watchmaker said, "I did this on purpose, so that the children who died in the war might be able to go home, farm, work, have children, and maybe my son can come back too."

It happened that Benjamin Patton's life was like this!

Benjamin's father was a successful button manufacturer, but his beloved wife died of dying when she was born in Benjamin. He abandoned the monster Benjamin in a nursing home. He spent decades alone and did not recognize Benjamin until he was about to die.

As for the adoptive mother, Quini, she was a perfect mother with a soft heart and a stubborn mouth. She raised Benjamin, and Benjamin learned a lot from the old men and ladies in the nursing home.

Lin Han’s mind was playing the plot of the movie, and his hands were flying on the keyboard, perfectly converting the image into text. In more than three hours, a short story of more than 18,000 words was completed!

Using the Wubi input method, the speed of writing is almost 6,000 words per hour is almost impossible for many traitors to complete.

After reviewing Benjamin-Barton's life, Lin Han checked the words and sentences in the novel to see if there were any typos or inaccurate words. After checking, he posted the novel on his own Weibo at lunch time!

...

Chen Jiaxuan packed up her things and prepared to eat after get off work at noon, but her secretary Xiao Tu knocked in excitedly and said, "Sister Xuan, Teacher Lin just updated a novel called "Rejuvenation of the Old Man". Come and take a look!"

As soon as he heard this name, Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but think of the story she loved the most in "Haiberian". Isn't Rachel, the daughter in the scholar's story, just rejuvenated?

From an adult girl to a baby, is this novel "Rejuvenation" telling Rachel's story?

She put down the bag, then turned on the computer again, and said to her secretary: "Xiao Tu, please order me a sushi takeout, just the one I often eat."

"Okay, I'll order it right away." Xiao Tu said, exiting the office and then closing the door.

After saying that, Chen Jiaxuan quickly logged in to the WeChat blog page and found the novel that Lin Han just released. The number of likes from the Weibo blog 3 minutes ago has reached 60,000, and there are relatively few comments. Perhaps no one has finished reading it.

She clicked on the long Weibo, and the first line of words came into her eyes, but it disappointed Chen Jiaxuan!

"It's not the extra episode of "Hippleian"?"

Although Chen Jiaxuan thought so, she still insisted on reading it. The novel "Rejuvenation" started with Daisy lying on the hospital bed. In the hospital of Hurricane, Daisy began to gradually recall the way she told her daughter stories, and a man named Benjamin Patton officially appeared.

Old woman Daisy tells the story of the watchmaker. The wall clock walking upside down left a deep impression on Chen Jiaxuan. Isn’t it just to turn the clock backwards?

Lin Han did not describe in detail how Benjamin Patton had just given birth, but only described from the side the instructions of his mother before her birth, as well as the reactions of her father and nurses.

Perhaps many people are as curious as Chen Jiaxuan, what kind of thing does Benjamin look so that his father will cruelly abandon him!

"Here my mother just passed away, and my father abandoned him. What kind of person is it so miserable!"

Even though I knew that Benjamin could grow up smoothly, countless netizens still felt distressed for Benjamin in their hearts and cursed the father who abandoned his child.

The story continues. When the nursing home employee Quinny heard the child crying, Benjamin made a positive description. According to Quinny, he was as ugly as an old jar.

"On the steps, there was an old man who looked seventy years old and was tightly stuffed into his scrambled clothes. His hair was sparse, almost all white, and a gray beard grew on his chin. He was swaying gently under the influence of the strong wind outside. His face was covered with wrinkles and his skin was particularly loose. He didn't even cry loudly!"

Chen Jiaxuan imagined the image of an old-fashioned baby like Benjamin, and she couldn't help but shivered. It was indeed scary.

It is completely worthy of everyone's admiration for Quini to adopt such a child!

As time goes by, every year, Benjamin looks one year younger. Although he is hunched and has presbyopia, he met Daisy who came to visit his grandmother at the age of 12.

The relationship between these two people was also launched at this time. Benjamin, who was like an old man, and Daisy, were not on the same timeline at all!

Chen Jiaxuan was fascinated by the sight, and she couldn't help but mutter to herself: "Love is so wonderful, but how can it feel like a tragedy?"

Benjamin, who walked backwards, became younger and younger. When he was 17 years old, he looked like a middle-aged man in his fifties. At this time, he chose to be a tugboat sailor and had a relationship with a swimmer.

1945 was a critical day. Not only because World War II ended, but also when 26-year-old Benjamin returned to meet Daisy again. Daisy, who became a dancer, was not happy with Benjamin. It was not until an accident that Daisy was in a car accident that could not continue dancing. The two of them were officially together and had their own daughter.

At this time, Benjamin's biological father also came to the door. The old man had been silently paying attention to Benjamin and handing over all the inheritance to him.

Everything seems to be on track, but Chen Jiaxuan knows that things will not be that simple. Benjamin is getting younger and younger, while Daisy is getting older. When her young and handsome husband is with her old and weak wife, there will inevitably be a gap in her heart!

Because of all kinds, they kept missing. When she was young, he was too old; when he became young, she was old! Fortunately, they finally met at the midpoint of their lives.

Good luck made people so much that Benjamin finally chose to leave, and no one wanted to see his father younger than his daughter.

A line in the novel made countless netizens who read the novel cry. Daisy said nothing is eternal, but Benjamin said: "I will never stop loving you."

It was probably a story. Many years later, when Benjamin came back, Daisy already had a new husband. At this time, Benjamin was like a teenager. After spending a night with Daisy, there was no news!

Until Daisy's husband passed away, the nursing home called to inform her that Benjamin had become a child and was suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Daisy decided to take care of Benjamin without hesitation until he left the world in her arms as a baby.

Chen Jiaxuan wiped the corners of her eyes and took out a tissue. This novel was so sad that she was suffocating from the beginning. She applied the idea of ​​rejuvenation to this point. She could only express her praise for her boyfriend!

The tears of netizens almost flowed down like they didn’t have money, especially some female readers, who were deeply moved by this love. Some things did exist all the time, that is love!

After reading this novel, it is like walking through a life, meeting many people, seeing many scenery, unforgettable love, warm family affection, and finally moving towards death.

"Dear, do you like this novel?"

After Chen Jiaxuan saw the text message on her mobile phone, she knew that this was a little surprise that Lin Han gave her. The little sadness that she had experienced before reading the novel disappeared, and she burst into tears and laughed!

Cute little baby said
