4 And it rained for forty days

The two of them first saw a flash of white light, and they subconsciously closed their eyes.

When I opened it, it was already pitch black.

He should still be in the car, and Shen Changwen can still feel his seat. His first instinct was to start the car first, then turn on the lights and look at his surroundings.

At this time, Wu Xiaoqing, who was sitting next to him, looked for it in the co-pilot's storage compartment, and before he could touch the car key, the car had already lit up - Wu Xiaoqing put two portable lights in the lattice.

They each looked towards the outside of the dark car, Wu Xiaoqing jumped on the seat twice excitedly, and shouted again: "I can walk this time!" This spaceship is definitely more advanced than the last one! ”

Shen Changwen cautiously stepped out of the car and looked at the environment around the car, he was a little skeptical of Wu Xiaoqing's judgment - they looked like they were in a large underground cave, looking at the top of this cave, they could clearly see the appearance of some naturally formed stalactites. The floor appears to be paved with stone slabs, and it feels a bit slippery, with something like moss growing on it. After a general look, except for the stone slabs on the ground, no traces of man-made were found around.

Whatever the place is, it probably hasn't been used for quite some time.

"Big brother, where are you, big brother?" Wu Xiaoqing was a little excited, and shouted loudly, but the echo spread in the cave for more than ten seconds.

"You guys drive and come with me." When he finished saying this, a small light appeared in the dark more than ten meters in front of their car—Wu Xiaoqing recognized that it was his mobile phone.

After the car started, as soon as the high beams were turned on, the whole cave immediately seemed very clear, and they immediately noticed that less than 100 meters away in front of their car, there was a huge door, which was at least twenty or thirty meters high and more than ten meters wide.

After parking at the door, Shen Changwen still had some doubts about whether this was a real door, and tried to see the processing accuracy of this door from the closing place of the two doors. But before he could figure anything out, the voice gave them a task: "You guys get the generator to work first, this door needs power to open the door." I'll modify the starter ......"

In the two laboratories managed by Shen Changwen, there is a backup power supply, and he also saw the workers install this thing at the beginning, but the one Wu Xiaoqing bought is only much smaller in comparison, and the operation is also a lot simpler. That is, he and Wu Xiaoqing lifted this thing off the car and wasted a little effort.

It only took more than three minutes, refueling, trying, and doing it in one go. When Shen Changwen finished the work at hand, he immediately rushed over to see how the "search and rescue team" who spoke was working.

"Dr. Shen, come here, there seems to be a voice on the other side of the door." Wu Xiaoqing greeted him.

Shen Changwen hesitated for a moment but passed, and saw Wu Xiaoqing putting his ear against the door. He listened carefully at first, and felt as if he had really heard some movement, as if there were many people moving in the distance behind the door. Then he also followed Wu Xiaoqing's example and leaned his ears over, and he felt that he could hear more clearly, and he could even hear some syllables made by these people speaking loudly, but he didn't know what they were—it didn't sound like any language he had ever been exposed to.

"You guys stand back, I'm ready to open the door," the search and rescue team said, "take a few deep breaths, stay calm, whatever is behind the door, listen to my command, understand?" ”

They both nodded together, and then there was a heavy noise from the huge door in front of them, and with this sound they heard the voices coming from behind the door be quiet for a moment, and then suddenly become more enthusiastic than ever.

……

It rained heavily for forty days.

It was as if the gods suddenly began to dislike this world, everything in the original world on earth, grasslands, forests, farmlands and herds, became an ocean under dark clouds, divided into islands by floods, as the water level rose, more and more islands gradually began to disappear, those parts that did not disappear, all the creatures were trying to make a final struggle.

"Wu, begin?"

"Look, it's wet."

Wu picked up a branch that had been sitting for two days, and it was much drier than it had been two days ago. But he held it hard with his hand, and when he let go of it, he could still feel a little dampness on his hand. He shook the king's hand with this hand, and the king understood what he meant, but insisted: "The moon has been full twice, Wu!" It's fast on the water! Begin! ”

They don't have time.

Wu tried his best to pick out some less damp parts from this pile of branches, and first tried to put a small part of the most easily burned into a small flame in the center of the room, and soon, the choking smoke appeared with the growth of the flames, and the king walked out of the cave in disgust, but in this smoke, Wu began to offer the sun god and the star god the ancient cheerful dance, as well as the song that has been passed down for more than ten generations.

The king listened to the song of the witch mixed with the coughing, and could not help but look up at the sky, the torrential rain like a river poured down made the king almost despair, would the sun god stop crying because of such a song? Will the star god appear because of the witch's dance?

A strong, tall figure appeared in the rain, and soon bowed down before the king, reporting the latest news from the messengers and sentinels of the tribe:

"King, there is a wolf clan patriarch who wants to be allied, and they teach us to raise wolves, and in exchange for us to teach fishing; The mountain where the cow tribe hid from the water has disappeared, the peach is dead, the big fish bite, and there are many big fish in the water; Mount Kinabalu is still quiet. ”

"Let the wolf clan hand over half of the wolves and meat. Send two more boats, and bring more food, and go to the west to look for the higher mountains, and tell them that if they can't find them, they don't have to come back. ”

After Wei retreated, the king went around the entire tribe according to his previous custom. Several elders were feverish, spared blood, and took medicine, but they still did not get better. The children were so hungry that they could not cry, but the king did not dare to give them the food that belonged to the warriors until there was good news.

The king could feel that the eyes of all the people of his clan would unconsciously converge on him as he made his rounds, but soon the answer from his face was scattered again.

They are eager to get good news from themselves every day, just as they are hungry for good news from the sun god and the star god every day, but the good news is like the sun god after the dark clouds, like the star god in the night sky, they are always there, the key is whether you can wait or not.

"King, the warrior of the fishermen has returned." The expression on Wei's face was very nervous, even if he was facing a big bear alone, Wang didn't see this expression on Wei's face.

"How many fish did you bring back?" Wang asked nervously, but Wei didn't answer, which made him even more scared, "How many died?" What about the ship? ”

"Only two came back, floating back in a boat...... One is dying, and the other is going to talk to the king. ”

The king followed Wei and walked briskly to the foot of the mountain. Along the way, he heard many of his subordinates crying bitterly on the side of the road, and this crying made Wang's heart even more numb, and he felt that all his organs were twitching. The fishing party went out with more than twenty people, all of whom were the strongest warriors in the clan and the main source of food for the entire clan, and now ...... Right now......

The only warrior who came back alive also had two terrible wounds on his body, and at first glance it was the result of the fight with the big fish, and when he saw the king, he immediately said: "King, we can't go out again, the big fish are now in groups, and the people of the boat tribe told us that if we go west for more than six days, there will be a higher mountain than the sacred mountain, and there are tribes who take refuge on it, and they are afraid that they will not welcome us." ”

The king muttered to himself, "But there is nothing to eat on the sacred mountain." "Bark, leaves, mushrooms, rats...... The people have already spontaneously found food to eat.

"There are wolves!" And the mighty man said unto the king.

The king shook his head gently, he is a king, and the words he speaks should be like a sacred mountain, the heavens cannot be moved, and the earth cannot be moved. He had just promised a covenant with wolves, and if anyone with wolves did not object, then wolves were his people.

For this sacrifice, Wu danced all night, and when he was carried out of the cave the next day, Wu was about to collapse. When the king woke up and went to see him, Wu informed him of the results of the king's sacrifice: "The star god told us to wait. ”

"What about the sun god?"

"The sun god will continue to bask in sorrow, and his tears will engulf the whole world. Only the most devout believers can be saved by God. ”

The king did not know if he would continue to be religious, but he knew that there was no other way for the whole tribe to go. Just now, two big fish even came ashore and dragged away a sentry, and several sentries around were so frightened that no one dared to come to the rescue, and finally watched the sentry being eaten by more than a dozen big fish in the water.

Reality no longer gives the people any hope, and the only hope is that there are some legends about the gods left behind by those more distant times.

Legend has it that whenever a disaster strikes, the messenger of the star god will open the top of the sacred mountain to bring peace and prosperity to all the tribes who pray for protection.

Legend has it that the messengers of the star gods could fly to the heavens and move mountains to reclaim the sea, and they rode the Xuanyu, which was bigger than the mountains......

The king did not expect the star god to lead him and his people to the ethereal fairy realm as the legend says, but only hoped that the people would survive this calamity, and only hoped that they would be able to live a life of fishing, hunting and farming before the great water came, even if they died at the claws of a beast of prey.

The king had ordered that all his tribes should not go near the water, and the three boats that were left of the tribe, which had been exchanged from the people of the boats, were also dismantled for fuel at noon. There are also some giant trees on the mountain, but their golden axes are difficult to chop down.

The king planned that if the water level continued to rise, he would personally go into battle, organize all the remaining warriors of the Youyou Wolf and Youjin clan, and start a bloody battle with the big fish. Regardless of the outcome, the winner will feed on the other side.

The next day, just after dawn, the king got up and prepared to start distributing all the "gold objects", which were the last precious goods of the tribe, and the king had planned to exchange them for some fish and boats with the Youzhou tribe, but now he had no choice.

Suddenly, Wei's voice came from a far distance, with extremely high-pitched excitement: "King! Mount Kinabalu! King! Mount Kinabalu! ”

"What's wrong with Kamiyama?" The king jumped to his feet and ran straight in the direction of the sound.

"Mt. Kinabalu, there is movement in Mount Kinabalu!"

When the king arrived on the mountain, both sides of the passage leading to the top of the mountain were already crowded with people. All the tribesmen had already heard the news of the arrival of the star god, and all the people were full of excitement, they shouted the name of the star god on the roadside, and even imitated the witch and spontaneously danced on the roadside.

The king led the way to the front of the crowd, and the sentinel pointed to the vine-covered mountain in front of him, and pointed to his left ear, and told his king, "With this ear I have heard the whisper of God, which is in the mountain." ”

The king listened carefully, but felt no movement. He walked over to the straight stone wall again, carefully earmarked his ears, and listened attentively.

He listened for a long time, and could feel something within the stone wall vibrating regularly, like the heavy gasping of a galloping beast, but he did not hear the whisper of God, as the sentinel had spoken.

The queen took seven or eight steps back, raised her head, and looked at the top of the stone wall, the totem that belonged to the star god—countless stars, were swept into a whirlpool. Legend has it that every time a star god appears, this totem will ......

Glow! Wang rubbed his eyes fiercely, the totem was really glowing!

Before the king could figure out the follow-up plot of the legendary totem glow, at this time, the whole mountain began to tremble heavily, as if the whole mountain was a sleeping giant waking up, and then, the king clearly saw that a small crack had opened in the middle of the entire stone wall he was facing.

The king cautiously retreated, stopped more than twenty paces from the stone wall, and quietly bowed down, waiting for more miracles to come. Then all the people followed the example of the king and bowed themselves to the ground.

After a few breaths, the whole mountain trembled again, and this time, it was obvious to everyone that the stone walls of the entire peak were slowly parting.
