Liujialing, Sanhui Town, Hezhou City, Eastern Sichuan Province, was originally a mountainous area with poor mountains and bad waters.

The mountains here are steep, strange rocks are craggy, most of the mountains are rocks and barren grass, and only near villages and towns have some forests and farmland.

However, it is such a poor ravine, famous for the need for national war preparedness forty years ago, a large factory with tens of thousands of people was moved from the capital. At that time, it was called three-line construction.

In addition to the factory area, the factory also has a family home for employees, as well as a hospital and primary and secondary schools. Therefore, this enterprise has become an independent small local society. Whether employees go to work to see a doctor, or their families go to school to buy groceries, they all live in this miscellaneous hospital.

Gu Yi grew up in such an environment of acquaintances.

Gu Yi's grandfather was a first-generation builder of the factory and an old blacksmith, his father was a turner, and his mother worked as an inspector in the testing room. Therefore, the last two generations of Gu Yi's family are the bottom of the enterprise.

Gu Yi studied well when he was in school, and his grades were at the top of his class. After graduating from high school, his father hired Gu Yi a temporary job in the substation attached to the factory. This is a very common thing among the children of third-tier old enterprises.

Director Su of the substation is a classmate of Gu Yi's grandfather's apprentice, and he is quite enthusiastic, and Gu Yi assigned him a master on the day he went to work, saying that he was specifically responsible for taking him. This master, surnamed Zhang Minglong, is forty-five or sixteen years old, but no one in the substation calls him by his big name, and everyone calls him Zhang Deaf.

At first, Gu Yi thought that his ears were not good, or the homonym of his name, but later he learned that there was nothing wrong with this dragon's ears, but he was picky. When he encountered a job that was not easy to do, he pretended to be deaf and dumb, and this is how he got his nickname.

Director Su obviously knew that Zhang Long's popularity was not very good, and no one wanted to work with him. It just so happened that Gu Yi came, and he was a temporary worker, so Director Su nominally found a master for Gu Yi to take him, but in fact, it was better to find a helper for Zhang Deaf.

The name Zhang Deaf is not called in vain, it is okay to command with his mouth, and he is tired of climbing ladders and poles and dirty work, all of which are done by Gu Yi. Gu Yi's apprentice is much more tired than ordinary employees.

In this way, Gu Yi worked in the substation for about a year.

If it weren't for the accident that happened later, Gu Yi would have married a wife and had children in this poor ravine, living the same life as his parents and grandmother.

However, the sky did not follow people's wishes, and an unexpected strange thing happened to Gu Yi, which completely disrupted Gu Yi's life.

The story begins with a small thing.

One night, Zhang Deaf was on night duty. The night shift of the substation has always been a shift system, with one person seven days a day. It was Zhang Deaf's turn to work the night shift on the first day, just in time for the heavy rain and thunder and lightning that day.

Zhang is deaf and timid, and usually does not go out of the house at night, especially during thunderstorms. However, the sky is unpredictable. On this day, lightning knocked out a fall insurance, causing a large area of power outage.

Director Su called Zhang Deaf to deal with it immediately, but the insurance couldn't be closed. This means that there is a problem with the line that came from. Director Su asked Zhang Deaf to immediately take the equipment and explore along the way, which made Zhang Deaf difficult.

Once, Zhang Deaf swore a bet with someone, saying that whoever dared to go back and forth to Sanhui Town in the middle of the night would give him a hundred yuan. Gu Yi responded on the spot. He didn't think it was a problem at all.

Sanhui Town is an ancient town with a thousand-year-old history, named after the confluence of two streams into one stream. There is a mountain road about four or five kilometers between the factory and the town, which is not too far.

The difficulty raised by Zhang Deaf was that he had to pass through a wilderness grave area. That's a shortcut.

The grave area was covered with many tall yellow cypress trees, and it felt eerie to walk in the daytime.

Zhang Deaf Zi claimed that he had seen a "ghost" in that place. That day, he was passing by there at night, and suddenly there was a flash of lightning, and with the help of the flash, he happened to see a "ghost" coming out from behind the tree, not far from him, dressed in red and green, with long hair and a shawl, walking silently. For this, he was frightened and sick for two days.

Although Zhang Deaf specially picked a thunderstorm day for Gu Yi to leave, Gu Yi walked back and forth smoothly, and nothing happened.

The day after he returned, Gu Yi showed everyone the night view of Sanhui Town and the photos of the grave area taken with his mobile phone that night, so as to prevent Zhang from being deaf and saying that he had not passed there.

As a result, under the coaxing of everyone, Zhang Deaf really gave Gu Yi a hundred yuan, and praised Gu Yi for his youthful vigor and courage.

Director Su's instructions, Zhang Deaf was bitter and couldn't speak. Because, he knew very well that the route to be explored happened to pass through the grave area where he had made a bet with Gu Yi.

Zhang Deaf was hesitant and said that he still had to take care of the closing of the fall insurance, and it was best to let Gu Yi investigate.

Director Su understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, and for him, it was important to be able to power on quickly, otherwise the superior leaders would criticize him. So, Director Su called Gu Yi and asked Gu Yi to go to investigate immediately, and then report the situation to him.

Gu Yi set off from home with a flashlight and rain gear.

This road Gu Yi not only walked through when he made a bet with Zhang Deaf, but also often followed his classmates to play in this area when he was in middle school, so he was no stranger to it.

Just when Gu Yi walked into the tomb area, he saw a long white thing faintly swimming in the dark sky not far away, which looked very soft.

If it is replaced by Zhang Deaf, it may not be said that it will be seen as a female ghost in white in the sky, or a dragon flying. But Gu Yi is not afraid, he never believes in evil.

When he approached and shone a flashlight, he knew that it was nothing more than a white agricultural film, which had been blown by the wind onto the wire. It is estimated that on a rainy day, the agricultural film carried water and conducted electricity, resulting in an overload with another wire, causing the fall insurance to trip.

Supposedly, to deal with this kind of thing, the electrician has special equipment, insulating poles and Spitfire drones. These things are all in the substation. The insulating rod is a suspension that pokes the low point, and the high one can only be burned with a drone spit.

However, Gu Yi felt that on this rainy day, the road was muddy, and it was too troublesome to walk back and forth, so he was too lazy to go back and get it, so he wanted to solve it on the spot.

He stepped on a grave and climbed a huge yellow cypress tree next to it.

The tree was very thick, six or seven adults would be encircled, and it was intertwined, and there were a lot of aerial roots and support roots, so it was easy to climb. Under the roots of the tree, a large tree hole has also formed due to the large number of plate roots and supporting roots. The fellow stacked some hay and other debris in the tree hole.

Gu Yi and his classmates climbed over this tree in the spring, picked the young shoots of the yellow cypress tree on it and ate it, which was sour.

When Gu Yi climbed to the canopy, he saw that the agricultural film was very close to him, so he broke a branch and wanted to poke the agricultural film off. But as soon as Gu Yi touched the agricultural film with the branch, a spark shot at Gu Yi like a snake hyacinth. Gu Yi immediately realized that he was actually touching a live high-voltage wire.

However, it was too late.

Gu Yi only felt that the white light flashed in front of him, and his mind was white. Even at that moment, he could smell a burnt mush.

Gu Yi, unconscious, fell from the canopy.

The eyes are white.

Gu Yi did smell a burnt mush.

It was dozens of flames rising into the sky, with a crackling sound, reflecting the entire deep mountain valley.

On the top of the cliff of that valley, there were rows of black shadows, monitoring the movement of the valley floor. In the valley, a group of soldiers dressed in royal uniforms were setting fire to the villages in the valley and driving away the villagers in the valley.

In the village, there were bursts of screams and cries of women and children.

At the entrance of the village, an old man desperately stuffed a pair of young men and women into a strange beast cart, and the beast whipped up and drove quickly to the path outside the village.

The beast cart flew all the way to the depths of the grassland far away from the valley.

Deep in the grassland, there is no one in front of or behind the driveway.

The old man looked back and forth, then jumped out of the car, waved goodbye to the young man and woman, and stood alone on the side of the road, looking back at the burning village behind him.

The monster car, driven by the young man, continued to drive rapidly on the wild road.

In the beast cart, the woman was dressed in red makeup, as delicate as a fairy, and under the blowing of the wind, thousands of green silks fluttered. The man was covered in animal skins, and his face was grim, like a hunter. The two of them drove the beast cart and kept running towards the front.

Suddenly, a flash of light streaked across the sky, and a silver disc-shaped metal saucer swept across the sky above the beast cart, then swooped down and landed gently in front of them.

The beast cart, with a slam brake, stopped in front of the disc.

Once the saucer came to a stop, a door flashed out and an escalator stretched out to illuminate the red carpet. More than two dozen men in royal uniforms walked down quickly from above.

The young man and woman also jumped out of the cart, and the woman coughed incessantly, apparently suffering from some disease. The man in the animal skin struggled to protect the woman with his arm, and the two of them glared angrily at the comers.

"Childe, you've had enough. Time to go. Your father has pardoned the death penalty of the barbarians of the valley, what do you want? The villagers of the valley, we did not kill them, but moved them to the city of the barbarians. This is not the place you should be. Standing at the front of them was a handsome young man, who knelt down on one knee to the man in animal skin, saluted with a fist, and said aloud.

"No, I'm not going back! this is my home!" the man in the fur roared angrily, waving his arm at the men, shouting, "Get out of here!"

"Shall I get out of here?" said a noblewoman, slowly descending the escalator of the saucer. Behind her, there were several maids, hugging her.

"Mother?" the man in the animal skin costume straightened up in surprise and looked at the noble lady in distraction. Those who were subdued by the royal family immediately flashed to the sides and made a way.

The noblewoman walked slowly towards the man in animal skin.

"Gu Yi, look at what you are like now! you disappoint me so much!" the lady slapped the man in the animal skin fiercely. The man in the animal skin suit knelt down, motionless and bears the slap with no expression.

"You don't want the identity of the heir to the throne, but you fool around with this group of barbarians, what can you do, you say! And this wild girl, how can she be worthy of your noble blood! If you have a child in the future, you say, what is it!" The noble lady was furious, pacing back and forth around the man in animal skin.

The man in the animal skin kept his head bowed and silently endured his mother's scolding.

"Now, at once, come back with me!" said the noblewoman, unquestioningly, and then turned resentfully, and walked in the direction of the saucer.

"No, if I can't go with me, I'm not going anywhere!" the man in the animal skin shouted stubbornly at his mother.

"If you don't go, all the barbarians in that village will die!" the noblewoman stood in front of the door of the butterfly without looking back.

"Brother Yi, you go with them, don't worry about me. We are not the same kind of people. The woman in red shouted to the man in animal skin named Gu Yi.

"No, let's go together, let's die, let's die together!" the man in the animal skin obviously refused to give in, and stood up resolutely, standing there, not moving.

At this moment, there were seven or eight torches that rushed from all directions, and their movements were very fast, and the grass was trampled out of countless paths by these people, and dust flew behind them.

"Barbarians. Protect the queen and get ready to shoot!"

Torches poured in from all directions in front of the saucer, centering on the saucer, forming a large circle. It's a group of men riding monsters. They were dressed in green cloth shirts, with green cloth scarves wrapped around their heads, and holding all kinds of mixed weapons in their hands.

An old man jumped down from a monster, walked quickly to the woman in red, pulled the woman over, and said, "Ah Die, you let us find it so hard." Quick, come home with us. ”

"Nope. Dad. I want to be with Brother Yi. The woman in red broke free from the old man and rushed to the man in the animal skin. The two hugged tightly and looked at the people around them.

"Ah Die! This person is different from us! Those hypocritical royal families are a group of selfish people. These people are unreliable. Did you know that the family members have been running around for almost a year in order to find you? Your grandmother's eyes are almost blind from crying! If you continue to be so obsessed, you will kill everyone. The old man said anxiously to the woman in red.

"Good. That's good! pull them away and get them away quickly. The lady said to the man in royal uniform, and then, turning his head, he led the maids and slowly walked into the saucer.

The men in royal uniforms also put away their guns, and despite their hoarse shouts, forcibly pulled away the man in the animal skin suit and the woman in red.

The man in the royal uniform held the man and walked quickly into the saucer. Several people in the green cloth shirt also jumped off the monster and forcibly pulled the woman in red away.

A flash of lightning swept across the darkening sky.

A group of torches lit up, rode on a large number of monsters, and rushed to a city in the distance.
