Chapter 1: Misfortune

Next Chapter

On a certain day in June of the 57th year of Taijia, at the edge of the solar system, it was pitch black, deep, and silent.

A ball of light the size of a wheat mang was generated in the void, flickered a few times, and then expanded rapidly like a balloon, and after a few seconds, it had expanded into a dazzling ball of light with a radius of tens of zhang, and the surrounding time and space were also distorted into ripples.

On the chariot can be seen standing a tall and burly majestic old man, he holds an ancient sword, his appearance is the same as that of an earthling, but his face is terrifyingly pale, there is a trace of dried golden blood on the corner of his mouth, and most of the right chest guard and right shoulder guard of the dark armor have been cracked and broken, as if he has just experienced a battle of life and death, behind him, the void that has just been torn open slowly closes as before.

The old man inserted the big sword into the sheath of his back, staring at the blue planet with a torch-like gaze across a distance of tens of billions of kilometers, a trace of incredulity flashed on his cold face, and then he shook his head and smiled bitterly, and whispered to himself: "Fallen Star of the Gods, I didn't expect such a great change in just 20,000 years after I left, it was too much of my expectation, this is really a great irony for our Origin Human Race!" ”

A dusty memory, lingering in a mottled mood for 20,000 years, made the old man fall into deep memories, for a long time, he came back to his senses, and sighed: "However, since you are so ruthless, then don't blame me for being unrighteous." With my Hongyi here, the Fallen Star of the Gods will surely become the graveyard of the Thousand Star Empire! ”

The mind has been decided, the big sword is unsheathed, and the fighting spirit is monstrous.

The old man suddenly instigated the reins, and the four-headed armored rhinoceros was like human nature, and successively "moo roar" several long howls, and struggled forward in space, the speed was not fast at first, but then it became faster and faster, and between a few breaths, the car and the person had turned into a black afterimage and shot quickly towards the blue planet, from the edge of the solar system to the distance of more than 10 billion kilometers on the earth.

Boom, the earth trembled slightly.

In the desolate steppe of southern Seberia, a sloping and sleek tunnel with a diameter of 1,000 meters and a depth of more than 200 kilometers has been formed, and at the end of the tunnel is an incomparably magnificent prehistoric city ruins.

******

Ninety kilometers south of the tunnel, there is a small mountain range that runs east-west - Juxu Mountain, and there is a small village called Youxiong Village in the south of the foothills, where the Xiong family has been nomadic and hunting for generations. That night, the vibration from the ground woke up the sleeping village, the sound of chickens and dogs barking was incessant, and the widowed old patriarch Youxiong Bi was also awakened, he got up and dressed and was about to go out.

"Tuk tuk", there was a knock on the door.

"Who?" Xiong Bi asked vigilantly, and picked up the big fire that was resting next to the bed. Medicine. The gun was pointed at the door.

"Patriarch, it's me, Yin Laosan!" Xiong Yin's deep voice came from outside the door.

Xiong Bi put down his gun and stepped forward to open the door, and Xiong Yin and a dozen men in military uniforms could be seen outside the door, and he immediately walked out of the house and asked in a deep voice, "What are you panicking about?" ”

The patriarch's composure calmed the panic of the clansmen.

"Patriarch," Xiong Yin stepped forward and said, "I heard Jianda's nephew, who was on duty at night, say that something seemed to have fallen from the sky, and it happened to fall near the Qinghe Ranch on the other side of the mountain, and then there was an earthquake. ”

Xiong Bi looked up at the side of Juxu Mountain, the mountain was dark and he couldn't see anything, he looked up at the sky again, the sky was covered with lead clouds, the cold wind was wrapped in a continuous drizzle, and from time to time it was accompanied by lightning and thunder - a vision of the sky! Xiong Bi's heart sank and asked, "Which team is on duty at Qinghe Ranch tonight?" ”

"It's Uncle Kun's No. 2 team and Tugubo's No. 4 team on duty." Someone in the crowd replied.

"Have you contacted them?" Xiong Bi continued to ask loudly.

"Several of us have already been contacted," replied Xiong Yin, "and we haven't been able to get in touch." ”

Youxiong Bi turned around and went back to the house with a solemn face, and when he came out, he had a high-power quantum satellite phone in his hand, and when he tried to call Youxiong Kun and Tugubo, he found that there was no satellite signal.

"No satellite signal?" Xiong Bi's heart tightened, and an inexplicable ominous omen arose, he turned his head to Youxiong Yin and said, "Yin Laosan, you go to prepare the car; Ah Tian and Da Leng, you call the people of the No. 1 and No. 3 teams to bring Zuwu. ammunition; Jianda, you go ring the bell. ”

A few minutes later, more than 30 heavily armed villagers drove away from Youxiong Village in four armored vehicles with the alarm bells of "dang, dang, dang", and were engulfed in the darkness of the wasteland.

******

Qinghe pasture, heavy rain.

Twenty-seven sturdy men in the No. 2 and No. 4 teams were lying on the roofs of the four ironclad cars next to the tunnel, and were stunned by the spectacle in front of them: countless birds, beasts, poultry and livestock poured out of the darkness of the wilderness like a torrent, and jumped madly into a huge tunnel that inexplicably appeared in the grassland, including groups of six-legged sword wildebeest.

The six-legged wildebeest is a new species that has been genetically optimized and recombined, herbivorous, and is named after its six-legged and sword-shaped horns. This wildebeest is tall and vigorous, quick to react, the only drawback is that it is irritable and extremely difficult to domesticate, but once it is domesticated, it is an excellent battlefield mount, because of its excellent performance on the battlefield was given a nickname "Land Thunder", in the whole airspace of the earth has been banned for 57 years now, having a "Land Thunder" mount is equivalent to owning a land combat mecha, is a kind of charging horse, and the bear clan is for the beast lord "Ice Wolf King" Qiman domesticated and raised the "land thunder" "human slave" tribe.

"Uncle Kun, what should I do?" The roof of the car was slippery, and he crawled over cautiously with his waist hunched, dodging the birds that skimmed the roof of the car at low altitude from time to time and approached Youxiong Kun's side, slung it on his shoulder. Medicine. The butt of the gun bumped against the roof of the car from time to time, and there was a loud bang, "If this continues, all the 'land mines' in our village will run into the tunnel!" ”

"I see," Xiong Kun said with a somewhat dark expression, staring intently at the birds and beasts that jumped into the tunnel, "Have you contacted the patriarch?" ”

"No," Tugubo flashed a low-flying green-headed wild goose sideways, raised the satellite phone in his hand and shook it, and replied: "Still can't receive the satellite signal, do you say that the tunnel in front of you has affected satellite communication?" ”

"It should be affected by the tunnel," Xiong Kun wiped the rain from his face and replied, "It stands to reason that such a bottomless hole in the grassland should be earth-shattering, whether it is a meteorite, an external force, a weapon or something else, but you also felt the vibration just now, right?" On the scale of a magnitude three or four earthquake, such a slight tremor has carved out such a big hole, which is unreasonable. ”

"Hmm," Tugubo nodded, "I've grown so big, and it's the first time I've seen so many birds and beasts so crazy, could it be that there's something strange in this big hole?" ”

"It's weird." Xiong Kun answered, and he moved his body to the side, letting Tu Gu lie beside him.

"What's next, Uncle Kun?" Spit bones and lay down, turned sideways and asked, "We can't just look stupid here, do you want to send someone back to the village to report to the patriarch?" ”

"It's necessary," Xiong Kun replied, "so many 'land thunders' ran into this tunnel, their whereabouts are unknown, life and death are uncertain, and the beginning of next month is the day when our village pays the 'New Year's coin' to Qiman, if we can't get together 500 'land thunders' by then," Xiong Kun paused and said, "Let's not forget the tragedy in the 33rd year of Taijia!" ”

Xiong Kun's latter sentence made Tu Gu Bo's back swish, although the older generation of clansmen were always reluctant to mention the tragedy in the 33rd year of Taijia, but he also heard a lot about the situation at that time, it is said that a sudden plague caused a large number of deaths in the "land thunder", and the village could not gather 500 "land thunder" in the specified time, so Qi Man took the heads of the bear clan to make up the number, and slaughtered a total of 321 villagers in Youxiong Village - exactly one person per household.

"Is it another flying disaster?" Tu Gubo was stunned in his heart, thinking of his wife and two children who were waiting to be fed at home, how could he be restrained?

"Uncle Kun, why don't I go back to the village to report a message?" Tugubo took the initiative to ask for help.

"No, you can't leave just yet." Xiong Kun waved his hand.

"Why?" Spit bones and be puzzled.

"As the team leader, you and I can't leave right now," Xiong Kun patted his thick shoulders and said, "The most important thing is to stabilize people's hearts, otherwise I think these two groups of team members will be scared of their courage, and the consequence of scaring their courage will be that there will be accidents and deaths!" ”

Tuguhun glanced around at the twenty-odd clansmen who were prostrate on the roof of the car, trembling, and replied, "Okay, I'm not leaving, but what should I do next?" Is there a way you can do it? ”

"Yes!" Xiong Kun nodded and replied: "The most important thing at the moment is to find our 'Land Running Thunder', which is related to the lives of the whole village, so I think we will find a few brave people to go into the cave to find out if we can find the 'Land Running Thunder' back." As for such a trivial matter as reporting the news, I can ask Changfu to take two people back. ”

"You mean we're two groups going in together?" Tu Gu Bo asked.

"Yes, there are more people, and they will take care of each other when they are in danger," Xiong Kun replied, "You are the boss of the fourth group, so I ask for your opinion." ”

"This ...... It's okay, it's just ......" spit out the bones and stopped.

"Just what?" Xiong Kun asked.

"Wouldn't it be too risky for us to rush into the cave?" Tu Gubo worried, "This tunnel is too weird, in case something happens to everyone......

"What do you think could be worse than losing a few hundred Land Mines?" Xiong Kun asked rhetorically.

"Okay," Tu Gubo was silent for a long time, and then said with a long sigh, "Originally, I wanted to go back to the village and call for more people to go into the cave to search for the 'Land Thunder', but since you already have an idea, let's do it according to your opinion!" But I don't agree with everyone going in. ”

"What do you mean?" Xiong Kun asked.

"A group of people stayed, and a group of people went in." Tu Gubo pointed at Youxiong Kun, then pointed at himself, and said, "Uncle Kun, you stay, I'll go in, so as not to cause the whole army to be wiped out in case something happens!" ”

Xiong Kun was stunned when he heard this, but his words were irrefutable, and he praised: "Xiaobo, no wonder the clan elders praise you for being thoughtful in front of me, and Uncle Kun is still not as good as you!" Okay, I agree, let's gather people right away! ”

The two gathered the two groups together, first calmed the tension of the group members, and briefly mobilized for battle, and then divided the second and fourth groups of a total of 27 people into three teams, the first team of three people, led by Changfu to return to the village to report the news; The second team of fifteen people, led by Tugubo, entered the tunnel to look for "land running thunder"; The remaining team was led by Xiong Kun to stay in place as a backup.

The members of the group who gradually settled down began to prepare separately, and Xiong Kun walked up to Tugubo and held his hands, and said: "Xiaobo, there must be danger in this tunnel, the lives of the fourteen clansmen are in your hands, as the team leader, you have a great responsibility, I hope you can bring them back safely!" ”

"Well," Tu Gubo nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, Uncle Kun, as long as I'm still here, I will never give up on anyone!" ”

"Good!" Uncle Kun tightly held Tugubo's hand and said, "Also, what else do you have to explain at home, just tell Uncle Kun?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a little relieved that Yunyi and the brothers Hun Er and Fan Er can't do it." Tu Gu Bo said worriedly.

"You can go with confidence," Xiong Kun patted his chest and said, "There is really a mistake, as long as I have Xiong Kun still there, I will never let your family live a hard life!" ”

"Then I'll thank Uncle Kun first!" Tu Gubo said emotionally, and the two clasped their hands tightly.

After everything was ready, the fifteen people of Tugu Bo took two ironclad cars, and slowly drove into the tunnel in the rain curtain, and countless birds and beasts gradually annihilated the two cars.
