Chapter 1 The sky will change

The sun is setting, and under a green hill, the afterglow of the setting sun dyes the whole land golden.

At this time, there was an ancient pine at the foot of the mountain, and there was a reclining chair under the pine, and on the chair was lying an old man with white hair and white beard, his eyes squinting slightly, holding a puff fan woven of bamboo in his right hand, and the sound of snoring was coming from his body.

Maybe it was the sunset that still made him feel a little uncomfortable, but he saw his right hand raised lazily, gently patted his half-open belly a few times, and then continued to sleep slowly.

"Grandpa...... Grandpa!"

At this time, in a room not far behind him, a little boy in coarse cloth clothes ran out.

The little boy had two small buns tied with strips of cloth on his head, his skin was fair, his complexion was immature and delicate, and he looked like a terrifying water spirit rarely seen in the world.

I saw the boy running towards the confused old man quickly, but in response to the little boy's shout, the old man who was dozing off on the chair frowned slightly, and seemed to be a little impatient, so he simply turned over and slept on the other side.

"Huh?"

The little boy came to the old man's side, and when he saw the old man's impatient reaction, his face showed a trace of indignation, and he tried to shout twice, but the response was still the snoring that seemed to never wake up, so the little boy clasped his hands, rolled his eyes, and looked at the stone plate in front of the old man, and his face showed curiosity.

It was not an ordinary stone plate, there were black and white chess pieces scattered on the stone board, but it was a set of endgames, but those who knew chess could see at a glance that it was a dead chess piece that had fallen into an embarrassing situation, perhaps the former opponent had already distinguished the winner and left, leaving only the chessboard and chess pieces that no one cared about.

The black and white pieces fall and seem to have become one with the chessboard, because it has been too long, too long and no one has moved the endgame.

"Humph!"

The little boy pursed his lips again, and then moved his gaze to the old man, what was the meaning of this miscellaneous fall in his eyes, so he took advantage of the old man's ignorance of him, and he simply crept up on the chessboard, and then turned and squatted in front of the old man, and hesitated for a moment before he was ready to reach out and scratch the bad grandfather who ignored him.

When his little hand had reached into the old man's arms, the old man still didn't seem to have any reaction on the surface, but in fact, his face had already taken advantage of the little guy's lack of attention and couldn't help twitching twice.

"Hey, hey..."

As if sensing the old man's reaction, the little boy had a wicked smile on his face, but the old man remained motionless, still pretending to be asleep.

Finally, the little boy's face was a little unhappy, but at this moment he seemed to touch something, and when his hand stretched out from the old man's arms, he took out a white chess piece...

"Boom!"

Coincidentally, at this time, there was a sudden explosion in the sky, and the little boy who was caught off guard was startled, and when he looked up at the sky, he saw a huge meteor disappearing from the sky above his head in an instant.

The long tail of fire instantly illuminated the sky that was about to darken even more dazzling than during the day.

Perhaps frightened, the pawn in the boy's hand fell, right on the endgame board at his feet.

This sudden change also surprised the old man who was enjoying the coolness, only to see him turn over with sleepy eyes and look at the little boy standing on the chessboard staring blankly into the distance, and then look at the sky again, and his brows furrowed slightly.

He slowly sat up from his chair and took the child off the chessboard, but when he first picked up the child, he suddenly was startled, as if he had noticed something, and then suddenly looked back in the direction where the meteor had gone.

"Grandpa, what's that?"

The little boy looked back at the old man's old face and asked;

"That's..."

Before he could finish speaking, his eyes inadvertently fell on the chessboard again, but this inadvertent glance made him stunned again.

After a long time, even the little boy's face showed a puzzled look and looked at the old man's face quietly, as if waiting for him to tell him the answer.

"That's ...... Providence!"

The old man finally spoke, but at this moment, his already lazy body seemed to quickly become weaker again, because the place where the chess pieces landed made this game finally have a result, but the result was often unexpected.

......

Or there is a prosperous party, the world is stable, and the street of ten zhang is still bustling.

Finally one day, in the royal capital of the world, in the royal city that was bred by all the prosperity of the world, a person suddenly woke up from his sleep.

His face was sweaty and pale, and when he was startled, he saw that there was nothing around him except for the wide bed and pillows.

"Da Da Da ......"

A slight rush and panic of footsteps came from a distance, and a few moments later, a man wearing a sand hat and a brocade robe, with a hurried face, ran in from outside.

If you look closely, you have red lips and white teeth, and your face is delicate, although she is a man, she gives birth to a daughter.

He hurried to the man who had woken up from his dream, and fell to his knees at once.

"Your Majesty!"

The tone was soft, with a kind of trepidation and awe, and then he silently lowered his head and waited for the man in front of him to speak, but the man seemed to be still immersed in the big dream just now, and his eyes narrowed slightly and did not pay attention to the person kneeling in front of him.

So in front of the wide bed, there was a sudden silence.

After a long time, he finally spoke, but only said one sentence: "The sky will be late, and the sun will set!"

On this night, a line of lights in the royal capital in the prosperous era hurriedly marched into the palace, with eunuchs as the guide, and the kings and guards on the left and right, and an old man was invited into the palace that the world dreamed of.

It's just that at this time, the old man's face was not very good, because his heart seemed to be pounding with his footsteps.

He walked through one palace gate after another, turned one corridor after another, and finally came to the man who made the world fearful.

"Bang!"

Although he was already in his prime, he still knelt in front of the other party without hesitation.

"Your Majesty!"

"Tell me..."

The man, still with his back to him, spoke, but his tone was surprisingly calm.

"The celestial phenomena have changed, some stars have fallen in the south, and purple gas has melted in the west!"

"What's the explanation?"

"The stars fall to the ground, and the purple qi passes away with the sound, there is purple qi chasing the stars, and the saints descend from the sky!" the old man said in a trembling voice;

"Saint?"

After a while, the man suddenly asked again, "If the heavens descend on the saints, will it be happy or sad?"

When the king's voice fell, he could only hear a "knock" behind him.

He finally turned around, but at this moment the old man behind him had already hit the ground with his head down, and he was trembling and refused to get up for a long time.

"Say, forgive your innocence!"

"I...... There is no room for two saints!"

The old man's voice trembled more and more like his body, because he knew that from today onwards, the day was probably going to change, and a prosperous era might make waves...

Time flies like a white horse, and the meteorite falling from the sky naturally shocked many people, even the ordinary people of the world will remember the situation of that day for a long time in a short period of time.

But when everything is obliterated by time, who will think back to the day when the earth shook the mountains.

It's just that since then, everyone seems to have a pair of eyes behind them, a pair of eyes that people can't see or touch.

There is a city in the south of the earth, which is far away from the royal capital, but it has been under the majesty of the king for generations, and there are more ministers who guard the frontier and stay here for the king, and the meteorite landing three years ago has long been reported to the royal capital by the owner of this city, but the king seems to have forgotten about it for three years, and has always ignored it on the surface.

Fortunately, the meteorite landed far away from the city and did not cause much damage, so Zhou Xu did not continue to bring up the matter again.

On this day, in the city of the city, Zhou Xu was anxiously walking back and forth from time to time in a courtyard, this scene is really difficult to see in this majestic guard of southern Xinjiang, not only that, but there are also many servants standing behind Zhou Xu, all of whom are as anxious as him.

Although the courtyard is located in the most powerful city in this city, it is built like a private courtyard, and the only room is open with the door, and behind the door is a screen to cover everything inside, but the shadows of many people can be faintly seen walking behind the screen.

Suddenly, there was a heart-rending sound in the room, one that belonged to a woman, and the pain seemed to resonate with it.

"Madame!"

Zhou Xu raised his head suddenly, the expression on his face became more and more anxious, and the whole person was about to rush inside unconsciously.

"Sir!"

At this moment, the servants behind Zhou Xu stepped forward one after another, and they were all messed up for a while, and they forcibly resisted the impulse after a pause at Zhou Xu's feet.

Today was a day for him that made him both excited and nervous, but for some reason his heart always had an inexplicable uneasiness.

"Wow~"

Just when it was as if Mount Tai was about to collapse, a baby's cry finally came from behind the screen, and Zhou Xu, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, was stunned, and then rushed into the house as if he had lost his soul.
