Chapter 15: The Death Knell
Time flies in a blink of an eye, today is December 19, 2022, and tomorrow is ten years after the Mayan doomsday prophecy, and it is also the end of the revelation of the Heavenly Mirror. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Is this really the end of the world, or is it just another joke that will be proven in a few hours.
On this day, Shi Jiu and Qingping were in a very low mood, and no one was in the mood to do things or talk, so they sat on the grass in front of the house and looked at the sky.
A few days ago, Shi Jiu wanted to leave Kunlun to visit a few old friends. was stopped by Qingping, according to Qingping's words, if the end didn't come, naturally everything would be easy to say. The end has really come, and they can't enter the ancient array, which only adds to the sadness. The rabbit also felt the weirdness of today's atmosphere, and instead of having fun as before, he just lay quietly beside Shi Jiu.
The sun gradually rises, moves westward, and sets, and the sky is full of stars, and everything is as calm and peaceful as ever.
No one can stop the pace of time, the 19th gradually passes, and the 20th comes. The starry sky, which was brilliant a second ago, turned fiery red in the blink of an eye. Along with the fiery red sky, bursts of Sanskrit sounds came from the air.
Shi Jiu burst into tears, this is the end of the world! What is your bursts of Buddhist Sanskrit sounds, can it be said that the destruction of the world is also considered compassion?
Qingping next to him seemed to be ten years old in an instant, stood up silently, and staggered into the bamboo building.
Shi Jiu looked at Qingping's lonely back, in the past five years, the master has been running around, trying his best to resolve the disaster. It's a pity that this matter can not be solved by manpower, as a person who stands at the top of the human race, the country's strategic deterrent, and a person who is as proud as him, should also cry!
The little rabbit roared uneasily beside her, she must have felt uneasy too! Shi Jiuyi hugged the rabbit and touched the rabbit's head, and the rabbit gradually quieted down and lay in Shi Jiu's arms.
Shi Jiu looked up at the sky, the fiery red in the sky began to concentrate in all directions, and gradually three fireballs appeared in the sky, getting brighter and brighter, and slowly showing crimson. Shi Jiu remembered what Master Qingping told him: Nine stars fell to the ground, and the earth returned to the ice age.
Those three fireballs should be three of the nine stars, and there should be six more in the place where you can't see.
Sure enough, after a while, the three fireballs fell rapidly downward, getting bigger and closer!
Shi Jiu heard a violent roar, and then there was a strong shaking on the ground, which gradually subsided after half an hour. Shi Jiu didn't know what the situation was outside, when the ground shook violently just now, the entire valley was covered by a huge golden light mask, and after the huge shock wave swept through the light mask, the originally golden light mask was now only a faint light, as if it was about to dissipate at any time.
Shi Jiu was not in much trouble for the time being due to the protection of the Ancient Remnant Array, but the other creatures on the entire earth were indeed living in dire straits. Nine huge fireballs rushed towards the Earth, causing more damage than anyone could have imagined.
First of all, the glaciers of the Arctic and Antarctic melted, the sea level rose by 60 meters, and most of the coastal cities became Zeguo, and overnight, the most prosperous and economically developed areas of the human world disappeared.
Secondly, volcanic eruptions, frequent earthquakes of high intensity in various places, the collapse of high mountains, and the destruction of countless cities. The devastation caused by this catastrophe was greater than any other in history, far greater than any literary or artistic work could have imagined, and it was just beginning.
Ironically, humans shouted all day long to protect the earth, and finally found that the earth did not need human protection at all. The damage caused by the catastrophe to the earth is much smaller than imagined, the earth is still nearly round, still revolves around the sun, its own rotation has not been affected in the slightest, the earth is still the earth, but humanity is going extinct.
Three days after the catastrophe, the temperature on the surface dropped rapidly, soon dropping below freezing. Regardless of the northern and southern hemispheres and the polar equators, it snowed heavily, and soon the whole world was covered with snow.
Shi Jiuha walked out of the bamboo building with a sigh, glanced at the sky that was still snowing heavily, and sighed. Fifteen days have passed since the disaster struck, and the heavy snow has not stopped, and the valley is not covered by heavy snow because it is protected by the formation. But the temperature in the valley has dropped below freezing, and it is still falling.
And the outside of the formation has been covered by snow three meters deep, and the temperature has dropped to below minus twenty degrees, what worries Shi Jiu the most now is that the formation is about to break, and the light shroud that envelops the entire valley is dim and almost invisible. Once the formation is gone, I am afraid that I will soon freeze to death. And he is almost out of food, he must still be just cultivating, not yet becoming an immortal, and he will still starve to death if he has not eaten.
Shi Jiu reflexively walked into the bamboo building, and the rabbit was lying listlessly in the room, since the disaster came, the rabbit looked sick like this. The rabbit saw Shi Jiu coming, and looked at Shi Jiu with a pitiful look. Shi Jiu looked worried, whispered to comfort the rabbit for a while, and walked into the practice room in the middle.
When I entered the room, I saw Master Qingping, who was still sitting on the futon, and couldn't help but feel sad. It turned out that the radiant Qingping was already full of gorgeous hair, his face was full of wrinkles, and he looked like an old man of seventy or eighty years old. Shi Jiu burst into tears and knelt down in front of Qingping.
"Master, I'm useless, I'm not the one who should be robbed. There's nothing I can do. ”
Qingping picked up Shi Jiu and said lightly: "You don't have to worry, this is just the beginning, and it's not time to despair yet." As for those who I am bound to die, death is constantly eating away at my life. The key is that you have to be patient, and the situation is bound to change. ”
"We can't wait that long, the formation is about to fail. Food was running out, and the fruit trees in the valley were frozen to death. ”
Qingping laughed: "Don't worry, will I be unprepared?" Kiyohei stood up, lifted the futon, and pressed it on the ground. A hole leaked out of the ground silently. Shi Jiu followed Qingping into the cave, the underground space is a two-bedroom and one-hall layout, one house is slightly smaller, about thirty square meters, and the other room and living room are mostly large, all of which are one hundred square meters.
The room and living room are piled with all kinds of canned food, biscuits, chocolates and other high-shelf life foods, as well as plenty of purified water. Qingping said while watching: "In the past few years, I have planned to prepare this place, I thought I could bring more people over, but I didn't expect that in the end, it was only the two of us." ”
"The food is there, but we still can't stop the low temperature, and the temperature outside continues to drop."
"Don't worry, I've spent a lot of energy in this place, and I've set up a five-element array here. With the Jiantian Mirror as the array, various energies can be converted into each other. This should buy you a lot of time, and you have to be patient and wait for the situation to change outside. ”
Shi Jiu glanced at Qingping, tears still flowed down again, and sighed secretly: Master, how long can your old man hold on.
