One hundred and thirty-seven years of the Hong calendar.

Summer is in the dogs, the sun is arrogant, and the weather for half a month makes people so hard.

Dog days are still enough, but since the beginning of summer this year, the average daily temperature is more than 40 degrees, so the high temperature is really unbearable.

There was a long drought, little rain, the river was cut off, and a major drought came unexpectedly.

Since the end of July, the drought in Qingzhou has become increasingly severe, with wells filled with sand, lakes drying up, and the Cangjiang River cutting off, making it difficult for the people of Qingzhou to survive.

In this regard, the Great Cadres and the Central Committee allocated silver and water many times, and almost mobilized the manpower of the whole country to provide disaster relief. But in the face of a great drought, the lives of the people of the world are as weak as ants.

The drought intensified, and it went south to Yunzhou and east to the barren jungle. For a time, half of the East Wilderness fell into a major drought.

For more than half a month, the drought did not abate.

Within the territory of Daqian, the drought in Qingdao and Yunnan prefectures has not abated. Outside the Great Qian, the 300 miles of land outside the wilderness has become a scorched earth, the grass and trees have withered, the woodland has become desertified, and tens of millions of wild beasts have nowhere to live.

Finally, at the end of August, the first beast roar was heard in the sky above the wilderness, breaking the peace of the Great Qianguo for 800 years. Since then, tens of thousands of wild beasts on the outskirts of the jungle have gone berserk and launched an assault on the eastern defense line.

Great drought, animal disaster, under such a catastrophe, the people's livelihood complained, and the government and the opposition were in turmoil.

However, compared to the turmoil in the east, there is peace in the depths of the wilderness.

The barren jungle, bordered by the sea in the west and Daqian in the east, is located at the easternmost point of the mainland. The jungle stretches for thousands of miles, the beasts in the forest live, the poisonous insects are endless, and it is extremely dangerous, which can be described as a forbidden place for ordinary people.

Although the drought in Qingdao and Yunnan was greater, the drought only affected the outer jungle and had little impact on the deep forest.

Under the wind of the East China Sea, there are already lakes and swamps in the depths of the jungle. Even under the prolonged drought, there are not many small rivers and small anchors.

It's just that the heat of dog days is still annoying.

.......

In the depths of the wilderness, under a certain poplar tree, there was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.

The young man has thick eyebrows, big eyes, a small head, a bronze face, strong muscles and broad shoulders, and a well-proportioned body. He was wearing a coarse linen shirt, straw sandals on his feet, holding a boxwood bow, a three-foot firewood knife at his waist, and a piece of green jade hanging around his neck.

It stands to reason that the hunters in Qingzhou generally only set foot in the mountains of one or two hundred miles outside the wilderness, and no one will get into the middle of the wilderness, let alone hunt in the depths of the wilderness. In addition, the drought and beast plagues in the east are enough to disturb them, and who has the leisure to go out hunting.

Oh, by the way, the boy's name is Tuoba Wu, as for the origin, I will tell you in the future.

"Squeak"

The strings sound, and the arrows come out.

A fat deer in front of him fell in response, and several other deer were startled and fled from the poplar forest.

"Roar, what a fat deer. Tuoba Wu let out a strange cry and strode out of Yang Lin.

There is a small backshade pool outside the poplar forest, the small pool is located in the north of the cliff, and the water source is the self-gushing spring underground. The sun is not exposed all year round, and the humidity of the mountains and forests makes the water temperature not exceed more than a dozen degrees even on dog days.

"After more than a month of drought, I finally got a chance to slip out. ”

"In previous years, it wasn't so hot, but this year it can kill a person. ”

"The forest is not in any danger, why won't the old man let him go out of the forest these days. ”

“... Count, count, count......"

In his own words, Tuoba Wu disposed of the deer corpse and took out a pinch of dried herbs to hide the smell of blood. Look at this series of criminal modus operandi than the average veteran driver.... Bah...... The old hunter is also skilled.

"Whew, it's finally done. ”

"What the hell is this..... The heat kills me. ”

Tuoba Wu stripped off his clothes three or two times, buried his head in the pool and played a few lame dog planers, so that he could comfortably lean on the edge of the pool and close his eyes to enjoy such a beautiful 'little day'.

In a short time, a fishy sea breeze blew in the forest.

After the sea breeze, a dark cloud appeared on the East China Sea Line, and it became stronger and stronger under the blowing of the sea breeze. Dark clouds spread westward from the East China Sea Line.

The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying.

Half an hour later, the clear sky turned into a thunderstorm.

"Boom"

Since the beginning of summer, the first thunder has sounded over the Eastern Wilderness. The silver thunder descended from the nine heavens and spread all over the world, as if to tell the world the mercy of God.

"It's raining, it's really a disappointment....."

"Damn, it's going to rain. ”

"It's finally raining, hahaha. ”

Hearing the thunder, Tuoba Wu's first reaction was that he was really fucking troubled, and it was going to rain just after a few tricks in the water. The second reaction was to say a big groove, this eye was dry for a summer, and finally it was going to rain.

Although the rainstorm is appropriate, staying in the forest when it rains is definitely looking for death.

Tuoba Wu didn't grind, and went ashore to carry the deer carcass and rushed back to the village.

At the same moment, the whole country was cheering.

There was thunder on the east coast, and this thunder gave the world hope to live. The drought has finally passed, and the tide of beasts outside the Boulder Pass should also recede.

Of course, the first thunder in the summer also attracted the attention of most of the strong people in Daqian Kyushu.

Tianzhou, a man wearing the robes of the Nine Dragons Emperor walked out of the imperial city, he glanced at the east with his back hand, and the golden light in his eyes seemed to cut through the void.

In Wenzhou, an old man fishing sat under a pavilion in the middle of a lake, and after the thunder exploded, the tail finger of the old man's right hand trembled slightly. At this moment, the fishing rod shook violently a few times, and a big black fish came off the hook. In this regard, the old man smiled and said: "What a troubled world, what a reckless person, I don't know what kind of person comes out." ”

In Wuzhou, a silver-haired old man on the top of a certain mountain opened his eyes and glanced to the east, and muttered: "Oh, Nine Heavenly Punishments, is it possible that the Beast Emperor was born." ”

Qingzhou, outside the military tent of Jushiguan, a big man in red gold armor looked up to the sky and laughed.

Yunzhou, over the Floating Sky City......

Chizhou ......

......

At the same time, some changes occurred in the depths of the barren forest.

On the east coast, there is a mountain range that stretches for dozens of miles, from which thunderclouds gather. The thunderclouds over the mountain range spread in a spiral, forming a thunder eye more than ten miles in the sky, looking up like the angry eyes of the heavens.

Directly below the Thunder Eye is a hundred-foot high mountain.

The mountains were bare, with no trees, no grass, and no insects or ants. Only a bluestone is placed on the top of the mountain. The bluestone is fusiform, shaped like an enlarged rugby.

At that moment, the wind and rain are coming, the sea breeze is raging all over the mountains, and the thunder is endless.

However, this mountain is different, the sea breeze will dissipate for no reason more than ten feet in front of the mountain, and the same is true of the thunder. What's even more staggering is that the temperature on the mountain is 70 or 80 degrees, and the higher you go, the higher the temperature. It is more than a zhang away from the bluestone, and the temperature is even higher to an indescribable level.

However, at such a high temperature, there was a hint of chill coming out of the bluestone.

The high temperature and the strange cold, the two inherently contradictory forms form a strange balance on the top of the mountain.

Half a quarter later, the dark clouds above stopped converging, forming a thunder eye with a radius of more than ten miles in the sky.

At this time, the sea breeze in the mountains is blowing more and more.

"Boom"

Eventually, at a certain point in time, the thunderclouds reached saturation, and an arm-thick silver thunder fell from the sky.

Silver Thunder went straight to the bluestone directly below. The next moment, thunder and lightning raged over the mountain. Heatwaves, cold, thunder and lightning, there was a qualitative upheaval between the three.

"Buzz"

A white light appeared on the top of the mountain, and a wave of air was visible to the naked eye.

After three or two breaths, the dust settled on the mountain.

There is a big pit several zhang deep on the top of the mountain, and there are more than a dozen feet wide cracks on the edge of the pit. However, under such great damage, the bluestone did not move at all.

Under the lightning strike, only a layer of stone skin fell off the bluestone, and there was a strange black vein on it. The black veins look very agile, and from time to time they exhale a wisp of black air.

For some reason, when the black gas overflowed, the thunderclouds became more and more violent.

“... Boom...."

Another silver thunderbolt fell.

It's just that this time the silver thunder was shaped like a dragon beast, as thick as a bucket, and its power was far more than ten times that of the first lightning strike.

"Click"

Silver thunder strikes bluestone directly.

The thunder was extinguished, and a thicker black gas erupted from the bluestone.

This black gas seems to have a special magic power, which makes people inexplicably produce a kind of cold, manic, bloodthirsty, hot, and world-weary contradictory.

“.. Whew...."

A strange wind blew down the mountain, and the black gas dissipated.

At this time, the situation at the top of the mountain was much clearer. The bluestone was divided into two, half fell into the pit, the other half hung in the air, and a naked boy lay on the stone.

The young man was more than seven feet tall, seventeen or eighteen years old, with eyebrows like a sword, a long face like a knife, black hair over his shoulders, and a slightly cold appearance. However, his lips were blue and his skin was pale, like a cold corpse that had been refrigerated for days.

After a long time, the boy opened his eyes.

Black, pure black, there is no trace of life in the strange black pupils.

"Knock"

The teenager's chest shook. At this moment, a large black pattern appeared on his body, and a dim soul shadow more than nine feet tall walked out of the black vein.

At this moment, the heavens and the earth were discolored, the wind stopped and the clouds stopped, the grass and trees withered within ten miles, and the insects, ants, and beasts all surrendered to the ground.

The figure stands with his hands behind his back, he is arrogant, uninhibited, and his momentum is like a world-beating emperor, which makes people unconsciously produce a kind of surrender from the heart.

"Daogu, this is hundreds of millions of years, you are okay......"

"The glory of antiquity, who has remembered ......"

“..... Unfortunately, all this was already doomed. Daogu, you can't stop it...."

As early as a moment ago, the moment the young man opened his eyes, the sky became more and more gloomy. Dark clouds gathered from all directions, thunder and lightning surged in the clouds, and waves nearly 100 zhang high rolled up in the East China Sea. There was a massive geological collapse in the barren forest, and a large amount of magma gushed out of the cracks.

In a short time, more than ten miles around Bald Mountain were filled with thunderstorms, subsidence, hurricanes, and magma.

"Heavenly punishment, earth calamity, nine times and what can I do. The figure was silent, and he didn't pay much attention to the changes around him.

The figure glanced down at the young man on the bluestone, and then strode nine steps around the bluestone, and then walked nine steps in the opposite direction. With each step, he drew a symbol in mid-air.

After a while, there were eighteen ghost-like grotesque marks in the sky above the bluestone.

With that, the figure clasped his hands in front of his chest, raised his head and shouted, "Rise, the soul returns." ”

Before the words fell, a complicated formation appeared under the bluestone, and eighteen marks turned into a streamer and scattered on the formation.

“... Boom...."

At this time, more than a dozen clouds fell in the clouds above, and nine magma flows surged under the mountain.

Silver thunder is like a dragon, and magma is like a python.

The tone of the "noisy" figure is still flat.

He waved his arms, one hand clenched into a fist to the sky, and the other palm to the ground.

Suddenly, the surrounding void shook, and a giant fist three zhang big floated out of thin air above the mountain, and a three-zhang big palm appeared out of thin air below the mountain.

"Buzz"

After a loud bang, the silver thunder died down and the magma subsided. The void around the mountain caused ripples, and all the ground was leveled within a radius of ten miles.

"Daogu, I was originally an obsession, if the obsession is not extinguished, I will always exist. ”

"You can't help me, why bother. ”

After the figure shouted a few words, it looked up and stared indifferently into the depths of the thunderclouds.

After a long time, a muffled thunder came out of the clouds, and the thunderclouds above began to spread in all directions, and the magma in the cracks in the ground gradually cooled and solidified.

"Boom"

After a thunderclap, the first rainstorm of the summer finally fell.
