Shunchang, Fujian Province
"It's right here. You have to walk the rest of the way on your own."
"Why don't you go?"
Taishan Goddess smiled and said, "...This place is forbidden by the gods."
The cave in front of us was like a giant beast with its mouth opened wide. It was pitch black inside, with a cold wind blowing. It seemed that countless ghosts would emerge in the next second.
It is hard to imagine that in such a land of green mountains and clear waters, there is such a place without life.
An Rugu nodded: "Okay."
She didn't think the other party would harm her. If the other party had bad intentions, he would have done it long ago, and would not have waited until now.
She said goodbye to the Queen Mother of Mount Tai and then walked into the cave alone.
The cave is about four or five stories high. Through the sunlight, you can faintly see the stalactites above. Water drops slowly flow down the stalactites, like the sound of a harp.
The further we went in, the louder the sound of dripping water became, and the less light there was.
An Rugu groped his way into the cave. It was not until a long time later that the visibility around him gradually improved and the scenery became clearly visible, moving from darkness to light.
She was like the man from Wuling, who had walked to the entrance of the Peach Blossom Spring, and after taking a few dozen steps, she suddenly felt enlightened.
There was a whole new world before my eyes.
At first glance, it is a vast sea of bamboo. One can imagine what a beautiful scene it would be when the weather is clear.
Unfortunately, the weather was not good. Raindrops as big as beans rolled down, hitting people's heads and it hurt like hail.
The sea of bamboos was torn apart by the storm.
An Rugu didn't bring an umbrella, so he had to use a water-avoiding spell, and it seemed as if an air shield formed around him.
The wind and rain stopped just an inch away from her and turned into steaming smoke.
An Rugu found it quite curious. Could this be the Peach Blossom Spring described by Mr. Wu Liu?
How could the divinity that Taishan Goddess talked about be here?
She continued walking along the path and soon came to a farmyard.
There is a tall camphor tree in the center of the courtyard. It is lush and green, but it cannot escape the ravages of wind and rain. Its leaves are blown all over the place, looking miserable.
At some point, a bird's nest fell to the ground and the main body of the nest was broken into pieces.
The hay and dry branches were soaked and filled with water. The feathers were soaked and were about to be submerged.
The baby birds are still young and cannot fly yet. They are now nestling in the nest, crying out as if asking why their mother hasn't come back yet.
If they don't come back, they will drown!
The tall camphor tree could not stop the strong wind and rain. Facing the overwhelming wind and rain, the young birds cried out at the top of their lungs, hoping to drown out the wind and rain and convey their voices to their parents far away.
They were still relatively lucky, but some of the baby birds were unlucky enough to fall out of the nest. Now they were lying on the ground, gasping for breath, unable to even make a sound, and the whole bird was dying.
An Rugu silently picked up the nest built with hay and dry branches and held it in his arms.
The baby birds noticed the movement and seemed to feel that they were saved. They stopped screaming at the top of their lungs and the screaming gradually stopped.
They stared at her with their dark eyes, with admiration, curiosity, gratitude...
An Rugu bent down again and picked up the scattered baby birds on the ground.
One, two, three...
As she picked them up, she murmured softly, "She's quite fertile."
At this moment, a clear male voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"Spring, summer, autumn and winter, the four seasons cycle, the birth, aging, sickness and death of all things, the cycle of fate, is an eternal law."
"There are tens of thousands of lives affected by this heavy rain. What's the point of saving these birds? Can you save them all?"
An Rugu picked up the last baby bird, put it back into the nest, then turned around and hugged the nest.
What came into view was a young man in white clothes and black hair.
His hair was loose and slightly floating, and his whole body exuded an otherworldly aura, as if a god had descended to earth and was looking at him quietly.
An Rugu paused for a moment. Although she had never fought with anyone before, she knew that her skills were not bad. She kept her eyes on all directions and her ears alert.
Few people could come up behind her quietly, except for those gods whose cultivation was far superior to hers.
This person's identity is obvious, he might be a great god.
I thought a lot in my mind, but time passed in just a moment.
She collected her thoughts and said slowly: "My ability is limited. I can't save all of them. I can only save them with difficulty."
The young man looked at the well-behaved chicks in the nest in her arms, his expression neither sad nor happy: "They are so tiny. Who cares whether they survive or not?"
An Rugu fell into silence and did not answer for a long time.
Seeing this, the young man simply said, "Since we can't save everyone, then don't save them."
He waved his sleeves, turned and walked towards the door of the farmhouse, raised his hand and pushed the door open.
However, at this moment, An Rugu's cold voice came from behind.
"Who cares?"
"At least this little bird cares, and the little bird next to it also cares...all the chicks in this nest care."
The young man stopped what he was doing and turned to look at her.
There was a violent storm behind them, but An Rugu did not let the chicks in her arms get wet with any raindrops and protect them from the wind and rain.
She said calmly, "As long as I see it, it means it is destined for me. If you are poor, you should take care of yourself. If you are rich, you should help the world. If I can save it, why not?"
“Not only do they care, but I care too.”
Her voice was much lower than the rainstorm, but every word was sonorous and had a power greater than that of nature.
After she finished speaking, the air fell into silence and no one spoke for a long time.
After a long time, someone interrupted the silence.
“…Come in.”
With a creaky sound, the young man pushed open the door.
As if thinking of something, he turned back and said indifferently, "Bring the bird in too."
An Rugu glanced at the camphor tree. Under the current circumstances, the bird could not be released, so she did not refuse and followed him into the farmyard.
This farmhouse looks simple on the outside, and simple on the inside too.
Stone tables, stone chairs, bronze swords, ancient zithers...
An Rugu felt as if she had traveled through time and returned to ancient times.
Two men were playing chess beside the stone table.
A man with calluses on his hands, dark skin, and wearing a short-sleeved shirt, looks like an old farmer sitting by a field.
The other one looked like a middle-aged man with a long beard and wearing an imposing robe. He had the temperament of a steady scholar.
These three men appear to be from the old, middle-aged and young generations respectively.
After hearing the noise, the old farmer said quickly, "You're back. Come play chess with him. It's raining so hard. I have to go check on the millet. It will be bad if it's seriously damaged!"
Then he stood up and gave up his seat.
The young man who came in with An Rugu sat in the vacant seat.
The old farmer was about to leave when he saw An Rugu. He stopped in his tracks, his eyes widened as if struck by a bolt from the blue, and he was horrified: "...Where are you from, who are you?"
An Rugu said politely: "Someone asked me to come here."
Seeing this, the middle-aged man stopped playing chess and said with a smile, "Don't blame him for being rude. It's just that no one has been here for a long time."
The man who looked like an old farmer found it quite interesting. He walked around An Rugu two or three times, teased the bird in her arms, and took the bird's nest from her.
An Rugu felt like a monkey in a zoo and was puzzled.
They all have two eyes and one nose, what's so surprising?
This god is really inexperienced.
She looked very calm, and went straight to the point, asking the most concerned question: "It was the Queen Mother of Mount Tai who asked me to come here. She said that what I'm looking for is here."
The middle-aged man stroked his beard, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his expression gradually became solemn: "...I see, I understand."
"I have what you want."
His mind moved slightly, and an ancient-looking box appeared on the stone table in front of him.
He stood up and handed the box to An Rugu: "Open it and you can get what you want."
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, An Rugu relaxed. This trip was quite relaxing as there was no difficulty for her.
"Thank you very much."
Because the matter was urgent, the people outside were still waiting for me.
An Rugu raised his hand and bowed to express his gratitude, then turned and left.
As I watched her leave, the room was silent and no one spoke.
It was not until a long time later that the middle-aged scholar suddenly sighed: "Xuan Nu, the world has changed so much, and we meet again, but we don't recognize each other. It's really touching."
The young man looked at the chess piece on the table, and said in a distant voice, "Why don't you recognize her?"
"That's her reincarnation. She has no memories and doesn't recognize me. How can we recognize each other? She will recognize me only after she merges with the divine nature." The middle-aged scholar was quite emotional: "She is so young in human form, about the same age as my daughter. I always thought that if she transformed, she would look the same age as me."
After all, Xuannv is a synonym for strength in the heavens, and being young often means lack of strength. Unexpectedly, her human form is very young and in the prime of life.
The young man seemed to be thinking: "Your daughter is also with her, why don't you ask about her?"
The middle-aged man's face froze. "Fuxi, can you still play chess properly? If you don't want to play, I will go and accompany him to study the wheat. I heard that the yield per mu is very high."
His daughter turned into a zombie and fought for the tribe, defeating Chiyou, but her own abilities caused drought in the tribe. In the end, he sent someone to kill her for the sake of justice.
He also felt very guilty, so he restrained his daughter's innate spiritual light and handed her over to the God of Destiny, asking him to find a good family for his daughter and never marry her into his family again.
The right opportunity for reincarnation is hard to find, and a thousand years later, the daughter was finally reincarnated.
Over the years, I have been following my daughter's reincarnation with a complicated mentality. The parents in this life were not bad to their daughter, but unfortunately they were unreliable and indirectly killed her.
The middle-aged man was very helpless. His daughter had never enjoyed any family love in her two lives and both died because of her parents. How tragic.
Unexpectedly, the reincarnation of Xuannv was very kind to his daughter, like both a mother and a sister, and provided him with a family that could shelter him from the wind and rain.
Unfortunately, whenever Fuxi recounted the situation in the outside world, he felt a little sour. That was his daughter, and she had such a good relationship with Xuannv, but he couldn't recognize her...
Fuxi took out a book full of mysterious atmosphere and said, "Thousands of years ago, you were grateful for Xuannv's kindness and spent a lot of effort to keep her divinity so that her divinity would not be swallowed by others. In this life, she has protected your daughter for a lifetime, which can be considered a perfect ending."
"Unfortunately, the future may not be certain..."
The middle-aged man was a little confused: "What's a pity? What did you calculate in that crappy book? Tell us what you found, don't be so secretive."
The old farmer also noticed something was wrong. He held the bird's nest in his hands and said anxiously, "Yes, Fuxi, we can't get out here. We all rely on you to understand the outside world. You can't hide it from us."
It doesn't matter if something happens to him, but he doesn't want anything to happen to the crops he grows.
Fuxi: "Don't you think about why the Lady of the Nine Heavens wants to take back her godhood?"
The middle-aged man was stunned. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he came up with a terrifying guess: "No way? Could it be..."
"That's right."
"Wasn't the Outer Realm Demon seriously injured by the Seven Star Sword? Why is he coming back again? Hasn't he learned his lesson yet?"
"Plunder is the nature of the demons, how can they learn from their mistakes?"
“It’s terrible. Once the devil is born, the human world will be devastated.” The middle-aged man clenched his fists and prepared to leave.
Fuxi guessed his purpose and stopped him: "If you walk out of here, don't wait for the demons, the fate of the human race will be in chaos first."
The middle-aged man has been here for a thousand years, and there has never been a moment when he hated this confinement more than now.
He sat heavily on the stool, looking dejected, not knowing what to do.
Fuxi calculated for a long time, but there was no new indication on the River Map and Luo Shu, so he frowned slightly.
As talented as he is, there has been no secret in this world that he cannot calculate for a long time, but now he has hit a wall, which is really a fresh experience.
His mind was flowing, and it was right. This River Map and Luoshu confirmed the Way of Heaven. The outer demons threatened the Way of Heaven, and were enemies equal to the Way of Heaven.
How can the Heavenly Dao calculate the movements of the Heavenly Demon?
He put away his magic weapon, the River Map and Luo Shu, and picked up the chessboard again, but did not make a move for a long time.
Heaven is cruel. It uses the mountains and rivers as chess pieces and all living beings as pieces.
Chess pieces are also divided into different levels of importance. They are considered first-class chess pieces, and Xuannv, who has the strongest combat power, is the strongest chess piece.
In the ancient times when spiritual energy was strong, the three realms led by Xuan Nu failed to defeat the extraterritorial demons. In this barbaric era with a lack of spiritual energy, who can do it?
She can save those birds, but can she save all the people in the world?
.......................
Outside the cave
An Rugu held the box and said, "I got it."
Seeing that things were going smoothly, Taishan Goddess breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. I'll take you back. Godhead and divine power are not easy to digest. It may take you a long time."
An Rugu did not leave immediately, but looked back at the cave entrance and said, "Now that the world is about to be in chaos, why don't the Three Emperors leave Huoyun Cave?"
They live in a cave, are very powerful and mysterious, and the middle-aged man among them looks at him strangely.
Combined with the local legends, she had roughly guessed the identities of the three people.
After Qin Shihuang unified the world, he felt that the title of king was not grand enough, so he combined the titles of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to give himself the title of "Emperor".
The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are the ancestors of human civilization, and the Three Sovereigns are Fuxi, Huangdi and Yandi.
It is said that they possessed great merit and did not truly die after death, but instead became saints and lived in the Fire Cloud Cave.
"I don't know the details, I just know it has something to do with luck. After all, they are the ancestors of mankind and need to maintain the luck of mankind. The Fire Cloud Cave given by heaven is the best place to go."
The Queen Mother of Mount Tai brought An Rugu back to the Taoist temple, and then left with the fox maid.
An Rugu also held the box, ready to return to the room to integrate the so-called divine nature.
The Star Lord Siming hesitated for a long time, and as if he had made up his mind, he persuaded him: "...The Goddess of the Nine Heavens does not have to be integrated with you. You can replace her with a similar god of war. I will ask the other Star Lords if there is anyone willing to do so."
"Master, when the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact?" An Rugu said calmly, "Besides, I like to control my own destiny."
Seeing that she had made up her mind, the Star Lord Siming stopped trying to persuade her: "Alas, I can't protect you like this now. I'll find someone to protect you instead. It's not easy for humans to merge with the divine nature. It's easy to explode and die. If you feel uncomfortable, remember to call me."
"knew."
.....................
Three days later, An Rugu, who was meditating, finally opened his eyes.
She looked up through the window at the endless sky, feeling as if the world was in the palm of her hand.
It seems that as long as I think about it, everything will come to me.
The higher gods can influence everything, including a leaf, a flower, and a drop of water.
So this is what it feels like to be a god...
It's quite amazing.
She became a god before she became an immortal and reached Rome in one step.
As for the memories of her past life, she watched them like a movie. Just like her, she meditated and practiced, occasionally picking up a sword to kill a few monsters, and then came back to continue practicing. For her, practicing was as natural as eating and drinking.
Xuannv doesn’t have any form of entertainment like live streaming, she lives like a cultivation machine.
What are most useful to her are the cultivation techniques and other knowledge.
For example, she can now repair the Seven Star Sword.
In her previous life, Xuan Nu was able to cultivate to become the leader of the heavens, so her skills were very strong. She also learned a lot of miscellaneous books, which was equivalent to a mobile library. For example, she went to the lower world to teach the method of calculation, and Qimen Dunjia was created by her.
No wonder she learned so quickly and her master wasn't surprised at all.
It’s like she compiled the textbook, so how could she not learn quickly?
Before she could digest the miscellaneous books in her mind, she had one thing she needed to do.
..........
Taoist Temple
The moment Siming Xingjun saw her, he understood and breathed a sigh of relief: "You succeeded!"
"Um."
After coming to his senses, the Star Lord Sima Ming became a little worried again. The time for the attack of the extraterritorial demons was getting closer and closer. This would be another war that would result in devastating losses for all living beings.
Watching one person after another approaching the node of fate, he felt a sense of melancholy and powerlessness.
The Star Lord of Destiny lowered his eyes: "Perhaps... this is fate."
"As the Star Lord of Destiny, I control the fate of all people in the world, and my own fate is also controlled by the way of heaven."
"Everyone is a drop of water in the long river of fate. No matter if they are human or immortal, they are helpless. This is the general trend."
However, An Rugu said: "Even if it is just a drop of water, it must flow as fast as possible to speed up the flow of this river."
Siming Xingjun was silent for a moment, sighed in his heart, and nodded in response: "Yes."
An Rugu: "By the way, I want to ask you something."
Siming Xingjun forced a smile: "Just tell me what's going on. Master is so kind to you. As long as you ask, I won't hide anything from you."
An Rugu lowered her head slightly, gently pulled the red rope around her neck, and dragged the black feather at the end of the red rope:
"The Soul Binding Bottle is my gourd, the Heart-Searching Sword is my peach wood sword, the Returning Origin Cauldron is something I picked up on the road, this feather is my feather, and the Seven Star Sword is naturally mine as well."
"But you tell me, these are the five magic weapons passed down from Izumo Temple."
"Ji Xing thought that the magic weapon of Chuyun Temple was quite shabby. Now that I have seen it, it is indeed quite shabby. It is full of broken copper and iron, as if it were garbage."
The sadness of the Star Lord Siming suddenly disappeared, replaced by deep embarrassment: "How can this be called picking up trash?"
"On the battlefield, I restrained your innate spiritual light and picked up everything I could. These are the only things left."
"I had nowhere to go. My soul wandered around the human world for a long time when I suddenly found a weak power of faith. I followed that power of faith and came to the Izumo Temple. I found that the only Taoist priest in the temple had been worshipping me. Not long after, he had a heart attack and died. I came back to life like Li Tieguai.
This place is so poor and there is nothing, so I can only make you some magic weapons for you to use."
An Rugu teased: "Don't you have your own magic weapon?"
Siming Xingjun suddenly felt very aggrieved: "My physical body was destroyed, and all my magic weapons were destroyed. Only your spiritual treasure was blown far away, so it was not destroyed."
An Rugu: "But this feather...you can leave it out."
To be honest, she thought at first that this feather was a great treasure, with the same miraculous uses as the Soul-Binding Bottle. She often chanted spells to the feather, but there was no response after she tried all kinds of spells. She thought her method was wrong.
It turned out to be her own feather, which once had divine power attached to it, but when its owner died, the power also dissipated.
They are just ordinary feathers, as insignificant as human hair.
When she thought about how she once treasured her own shed hair and kept it close to her body, she fell silent.
The Star God of Destiny was not justified but was very confident: "Four means death, how unpleasant it sounds, five sounds much better."
An Rugu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay."
She turned to leave, then as if she had thought of something, she turned back and said, "Master, I have seen Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi, and I don't know how to repay his kindness."
The Star Lord Siming sneered, "What is there to repay? He cared about his daughter the most, but unfortunately his daughter's fate was too bad. I arranged the best fate for her, but she was tortured and died early. You helped him protect his daughter, which is already a repayment of the favor."
"If it weren't for you, Hanba, the calamity star, would have been killed by gods and humans alike long ago."
An Rugu thought for a moment, nodded, and then said: "But I haven't repaid your kindness yet."
The Star Lord of Destiny retained her innate spiritual light, which is equivalent to retaining the human soul, otherwise she would have long been sleeping in the land of eternal calamity.
Siming Xingjun: "Alas, there is no gratitude or ingratitude between us. If you live well, you will repay my kindness."
An Rugu did not agree, and searched the database of Xuannv in his mind, saying: "You don't have a physical body now, so it's difficult to practice. There are too few containers that can hold the soul. I will find one for you in the future."
The demons from outer space are attacking, so there isn't much hope for this matter.
Siming Xingjun understood this and didn't want to reject her, so he smiled and said, "Then I will wait for good news."
...........
Izumo-kan side courtyard
Ji Xing looked left and right, and saw that she looked calm, not much different from before, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay."
"What's wrong?" An Rugu asked curiously.
Ji Xing lowered his head and muttered, "I'm afraid your temperament will change drastically and you will ignore me."
There is also a chain of contempt among the gods. The gods in heaven look down on those on earth. The gods in heaven that he has met always think highly of themselves.
He was worried that her personality would change drastically after she regained her memory and she would no longer be the same person she used to be.
Fortunately, it still tastes the same as before. He couldn't tell exactly what it was, but it felt the same.
An Rugu pondered for a moment: "When I touched the memory, I felt that she was me and I was her, so there was no obstacle."
"That's great. By the way, you talked with your master for so long, what did you talk about?" Ji Xing felt a little uncomfortable. He had been protecting her for three days, but when she came out of seclusion, the first thing she did not come to find him, but went to find her master.
There was nothing to hide about this matter, so An Rugu told him directly.
Ji Xing smiled and said, "Lord Siming really knows how to make money. I want to learn from him."
He withdrew his thoughts and looked at the black feathers on her chest, thinking: "So... you don't like these feathers? Don't you bird people like to use bird feathers to build nests?"
In ancient times, black was respected, and black means black, and black is a black bird. This feather is shiny and glossy, and it shines darkly in the sun, which is extremely beautiful.
Ji Xing's words reminded An Rugu.
She held up the black feather and stared at it quietly, suddenly remembering the bird's nest she had seen in the Fire Cloud Cave before. Her nature was somewhat awakened, and she suddenly felt that this was not bad.
A nest made of feathers like this should be very soft. And since they are your own feathers, there will be no strange feeling, so it must be very comfortable.
"In those memories, I only lived in a palace, not a nest. But what you said is not wrong."
Ji Xing tried hard to suppress his aversion to furry creatures and held out his hand: "Why don't you give it to me? I'll save it for you. Tell me when you lose your hair. I'll save as much as I can and build a big nest."
"Can you build a nest?"
Ji Xing looked confident, as if he were a great architect: "If you don't know how, I can learn. What's so difficult about building a nest? Dragons are also oviparous animals, okay? I can build you a constant temperature warm nest to ensure that you won't be cold."
An Rugu didn't hand it to him immediately: "But the main purpose of animals building nests is not to build a warm home, but to reproduce."
“This…” Ji Xing was speechless, a blush appeared on his delicate face, and he stammered: “Well, forget it, no, you are not an ordinary bird, it must not mean this to you, give it to me.”
An Rugu looked at him quietly.
Ji Xing pretended to look away naturally, not meeting her gaze: "Forget it if you don't want to give it to me, I'm happy to be free."
An Rugu suddenly smiled, like ice and snow just melting, so beautiful that people couldn't recover from it, and handed him the feather: "Thank you for your help."
Ji Xing was immediately happy, and pinched the feathers happily. The furry feeling didn't seem so annoying anymore: "You have good taste."
An Rugu didn't speak for a long time, and looked at him deeply: "You have also helped me a lot. I owe you a lot of favors, and I don't know how to repay you."
Ji Xing rarely saw her speak so formally. He was stunned for a moment, and his expression became solemn: "Why are you so polite? I should do what I should do. I am an executive and the restaurant is under my management. Isn't it normal for me to help you? Don't be polite."
"Wait, if you want to be polite, you can treat me to a meal and I'll choose the location."
An Rugu agreed more readily than ever before: "Okay."
.................
In recent days, extreme weather has become more and more frequent, and natural disasters have occurred frequently, and natural disasters have dominated the hot search lists at home and abroad.
#China has been experiencing heavy rain for days#
#Summer arrives in many places in one day, with temperatures exceeding 40 degrees #
#How to prevent heat stroke#
#Sea level rise#
#Island volcano eruption#
[To be honest, this summer came really early and it’s so hot! I miss spring so much. It turns out that we only know how to cherish something when we lose it. ]
[For the first time, I learned that when the temperature is too high, the body's proteins will denature, and it is irreversible. This is called heat stroke. I am already numb, and even the air conditioner can't save me. If it gets this hot, I will die.]
[It's so funny. Looking at the map, the temperature here is the same as that of Huoyan Mountain.]
[Excessive heat will not only kill people, but also cause glaciers to melt and sea levels to rise. I heard that the ice in the Arctic has melted and polar bears have drowned.]
[Experts say the earth has reached a cycle, and the summer will get hotter and hotter every year! ]
[I heard that some small island countries have been submerged by rising sea levels! ]
This year's summer came particularly early and was particularly severe. The temperature in many places has already exceeded 40 degrees Celsius, and an egg cracked on the road can be cooked by the heat.
Under the extremely high temperatures, countless Chinese people feel that this is the most difficult summer.
However, only a few people know that the rise in sea levels is not just due to high temperatures.
At the meeting, the leaders were extremely surprised: "Guixu? What is this thing? Is this the thing that causes the sea level to rise?"
The staff member said: "That's right, Guixu is the end of the world."
"Pangu created the world and only squeezed out the chaos. He did not make it disappear. Chaos cannot be eliminated. The extraterritorial demons are brewing in the chaos."
"The demons from outside the domain are always thinking about devouring this world."
A scientist sighed slightly: "To be honest, this is the first time I feel the common ground between theology and science. Everything is in a state of increasing entropy and always tends to develop into a disordered world. The disorder represented by chaos is the destination of everything."
The leader hoped very much that this was nonsense, but various facts told him that it was very likely true.
He was silent for a long time before he said, "Where is this extraterritorial demon? Where is Chaos? Outer space?"
The staff member said: "We have mobilized countless resources to search for information related to the Heavenly Demon and Guixu, and found some information. We have identified 148 possible locations."
"In the ancient book Liezi, there is a record of a mysterious place in the sea, also called Guixu. Countless waters gather here, and it is called the bottomless valley in the sea."
"The Mariana Trench is the deepest known part of the ocean. If you put Mount Everest at the bottom of the trench, its top would not be able to come out of the water. This trench sucks away 3 billion tons of seawater every year. It is like a bottomless pit on the seabed, swallowing up seawater like crazy every year. This is similar to the Guixu mentioned in ancient books."
"So the Mariana Trench is most likely the hiding place of the extraterritorial demons, which is also the passage to the chaos. This place has the highest possibility among the 148 places."
The leader took a deep breath and said, "This method of judgment is too hasty."
"More than that." The staff member took out the information: "The Mariana Trench swallows countless seawater every year, but this seawater participates in the earth's water cycle and does not affect the sea level too much. However, recently there has been an abnormality. It no longer swallows seawater, but instead discharges seawater. This seawater has greatly disrupted the earth's water cycle."
"At this rate, our country will lose one-tenth of its coastal land in another year. The island country next door will lose one-third of its land."
"According to conservative estimates, in ten years, the entire earth will be covered in ocean."
As he finished speaking, the sound of swallowing saliva could be heard one after another.
It turns out that the Mayans' prediction about the end of the world was correct, it's just that the time has been delayed?
In ten years, the country has turned into a vast ocean...that means the country will be destroyed and the race will be extinct!
The staff member went out to answer a phone call and came back with bright eyes: "The manager of Izumo Temple told me the location of the Chaos Rift. Sure enough, it is in the Mariana Trench, just as we inferred."
................
The end of the world is so terrifying that in order to avoid public panic, this matter has been classified as top secret.
However, the level of action was unprecedentedly high. Many places issued wartime orders, and countless places directly banned civil aviation, allowing only helicopters to pass.
Capital
On the busy streets.
"It's so noisy, why is it so noisy?"
A child screamed, "Look up at the sky!"
As the roar in their ears became louder and louder, countless people looked up, and when they saw what was happening, they were stunned.
silence.
Unprecedented silence!
More than 200 super-large transport planes lined up, took off from the airport, and flew quickly towards the east.
Densely packed and overwhelming, it is a steel torrent in the sky.
Many people were dazzled and felt a little motionsick. They couldn't recognize that it was a plane at all and thought it was a monster.
The children were very excited: "Bye bye plane, bye plane!"
The Internet was in an uproar: [Why the hell are there so many helicopters? I was so scared that my melon seeds dropped. Are we going to have a war? ]
[Isn't it? People along the coast said that aircraft carriers have been dispatched! ]
[Don't worry, CCTV has issued an announcement. This is a military exercise, and it is a joint military exercise eight involving very powerful countries, called the Rim of the Pacific Military Exercise.]
[Wow, I've seen military exercises before, but never on this scale. It's really exciting. Why don't you broadcast it live? ]
[Are you stupid? How can a military exercise, which is so highly confidential, be broadcast live? ]
.................
The Mariana Trench does not belong to any country, and in theory, ordinary civilian ships can pass through it. Under international law, fleets from all countries can sail on the high seas.
However, such a huge military machinery touched the nerves of the whole world, and caused countless people to stop it when it set off.
Thus, the news of the end of the world was shared.
The leaders are happy to see this happen. They can't just face the end of the world while other countries sit back and do nothing.
As a result, the country closest to the Mariana Trench is trembling and its people can't sleep well.
Although we know they won't attack us, but with so many aircraft carriers parked at the door, who can resist? What if they fire accidentally?
Isn't it the Rim of the Pacific military exercise? Why is it stopped at the trench?
Aircraft carriers cannot dive!
................
A Chinese ship
Captain Wang of the Special Management Bureau, wearing special protective clothing, looked into the distance through the confusing fog.
As the ship advanced and got closer to the trench, his brows furrowed more and more tightly: "Do you feel something is wrong?"
The colors around me became lighter and lighter, as if I had gone from a color movie to a film noir.
The teammate said: "Chaos only has two colors, black and white, yin and yang, no color."
Captain Wang's brows were furrowed. His instinct made him want to escape from this dangerous place, but his reason told him that he couldn't.
Behind him stand hundreds of millions of ordinary Chinese people.
If everyone in the Special Management Bureau wants to escape, then it means there is no solution.
Captain Wang raised his right hand and touched the protective suit on his body. He clenched his special weapon with his right hand, not only to comfort others, but also to comfort himself: "The devil should be a monster. Our nano-level protection should be able to protect it. We can lose the battle but not the enemy. Cheer up!"
However, there was no response from the team members behind him for a long time.
He turned his head and saw that the team member's eyes had turned red at some point, as red as a rabbit's, and his face looked ferocious, like a monster.
They picked up their guns and fired at their teammates, causing countless casualties in a short period of time.
Many people fell to the ground with bloody holes in their chests, and their lives or deaths were unknown.
Captain Wang: “!!!”
He immediately raised the weapon in his hand: "What are you doing! Stop! Obey orders!"
In an instant, he realized that they had been tricked by a demon that could affect people's minds!
However, his once harmonious and friendly teammates simply ignored him and turned their guns around and pointed them at him.
Captain Wang's pupils trembled. He didn't want to shoot at his teammates. They had been through life and death together and drank happily together.
But reason told him that if he didn't take the initiative, he would die on the spot!
These crazy teammates will not let me go.
For a moment, he was in tears and was in a state of confusion.
Perhaps, when these people pointed their guns at themselves, they were no longer normal people.
He didn't want to die so clearly, he still wanted to subdue the devil.
He finally made up his mind and subconsciously touched the trigger, his heart filled with hatred for the extraterritorial demon.
If he survives, he will definitely kill the devil himself and avenge his friends!
However, at this moment, it seemed as if a veil was lifted in front of my eyes, and when I opened my eyes again, the world was completely new.
All the teammates who were lying in a pool of blood stood up, holding their guns and aiming them vigilantly at the people around them.
When they noticed something strange, they were stunned.
"Xiao Sun, weren't you killed by Zhang Cheng? I just wanted to avenge you."
"Captain, weren't you killed by Xiao Wang? How did you survive?"
After some communication, they suddenly realized and clenched their weapons.
They actually fell into an illusion!
Captain Wang touched the treasure bag in his pocket, muttered to himself, and suddenly understood: "The superiors have also taken this aspect into consideration and brought us talismans to prevent illusions, but they are of no use at all. This extraterritorial demon..." is very powerful.
This illusion made them think that their friend was crazy, forcing them to kill their friend with their own hands.
How vicious!
The same thing happened to other fleets approaching the trench, which almost resulted in a tragedy.
The Chinese army was fine. They had received training before and knew they were facing a special force. They had countermeasures and reacted quickly, knowing that they had fallen into an illusion.
People from other countries were confused. They thought the devil was joking, but it turned out to be true!
They thought it was a devil's punishment from God, so they knelt down and prayed, "My Lord Devil, I no longer believe in God, I am willing to believe in you!"
The Chinese people are trying to find out who saved them.
But then, they no longer had to look for it.
In the black and white, the sky was covered with thunderclouds and lightning, as if it was the roar of this world, and a huge vortex appeared on the sea level.
The demon from outside the realm appeared faster than anyone imagined.
His body was wrapped in a black robe, revealing his face. He exuded an ominous aura and floated above the sea without touching the ground.
In the army's steel torrent, it floats lightly above all military weapons, as if everything is nothing.
When they saw the other person's face clearly, everyone was stunned. Whether it was the people outside the fleet, the people watching the screen inside, or the people in foreign countries watching the situation here via satellite, they all fell into a daze and obsession.
If you like beautiful women, he is the most beautiful one.
If you like handsome guys, he is the most handsome guy.
If you like old men, he is the oldest old man.
This feeling controls them, making them want to give everything to each other regardless of the consequences.
Some people with weaker willpower find it difficult to resist this temptation. It is as if they have seen the god they most want to see in their life. They even ignore everything and simply put down their weapons and walk towards the other party.
Those with stronger willpower noticed the abnormality, gritted their teeth, and exerted all their willpower to stop this obsession.
They could only divert their attention to hold onto those teammates with poor willpower, barely preventing them from falling into the sea and being swallowed by sharks.
But he also didn't want to use weapons against the demon and couldn't bear to hurt him.
Only the gods barely escaped.
"Ignorant and fearless humans." The extraterritorial demon looked at the group of elite humans below with the same eyes as he looked at ants. His eyes showed no sadness or joy, as if he were an omniscient and omnipotent god.
The extraterritorial demon waved his sleeves slightly, and the waves below raged, creating huge waves that far exceeded the height of the ship.
It was about to fall down and swallow everyone.
However, until this point, no one was willing to raise their guns.
It was as if a voice in their ears told them: "Obey, obey, obey."
The remaining sanity in many people's hearts brings them countless despair. Is this the devil?
Humans are like ants before him.
Without spending any soldiers, just by controlling people's minds, all the high-tech products that we are proud of have lost their effectiveness.
Who can really fight against it?
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Why is Miss An there?"
"It looks like she's been tricked. Call her back!"
From their perspective, An Rugu was like a pilgrim walking devoutly towards his god, from the bow to the stern, with a very clear goal.
Because of the previous training, almost all the Chinese people present knew An Rugu. They subconsciously looked in that direction, their hearts and eyes filled with worry.
Alas, this demon from outside the domain is so terrifying!
Even the master of metaphysics with many tricks can't resist! It's over!
"Calm down, don't be confused. If you keep going, you'll fall into the sea!"
Someone walked up and tried to hold her back, but he dodged her.
Many people slowly closed their eyes, feeling bitter in their hearts.
The Pacific Joint Military Exercise team fell silent, losing all their elite troops.
Who would believe this news when it gets back?
No, they would believe it, because such a terrifying demon would eventually come to the inland.
However, at this moment, the demon from outside the domain heard the noise, turned his head, and locked his eyes on An Rugu. His expression of neither sadness nor joy disappeared, and gradually became distorted and weird, and he began to laugh.
When it falls into people's ears, it sounds different to each person and becomes the most beautiful and pleasant sound in their ears.
The same thought flashed through the minds of countless people: What is he laughing at?
Could it be that the devil had his first sacrifice and was therefore very happy?
The demon from outside the domain laughed louder and louder, and it took a long time for him to stop laughing. He looked at An Rugu at his feet with malicious eyes: "Lady Xuannv, I recognized you."
"Are you going to go against me for these ignorant ants again?"
