...... A few years had passed, and a man in ragged clothes was seen staggering down the deserted street.

But he was unremarkable, for unkempt beggars abound in the streets. They had a good life, but the natural disaster a few years ago caused them to lose everything, and even almost lost their lives.

It's just that this beggar is obviously a little different, and of course his appearance must be no different from other beggars. But the difference is that there is also a gorgeous ring on the beggar's hand.

But there didn't seem to be anything in the ring that would keep him alive, or that he simply didn't have the strength to open it. Now he is so weak that he doesn't even have the strength to take off the ring, and even walking is extremely difficult.

And now, the hunger in his belly makes it even harder for him to stand. It was pain he hadn't felt in a long time, and he hadn't felt hunger since that breakthrough decades ago.

Even the occasional food is eaten just to taste it, not to be fed. But now he found that he needed food so much, not from the desire of his heart, but from the instinctive need of the flesh that made him almost lose his mind.

And now he found that just outside a mansion not far away, a vicious dog was squatting there. Obviously, this is the need for these vicious dogs in order to prevent those beggars from approaching.

It has to be said that this is indeed a very effective method. For before the beggars could get near their houses, the vicious dogs would come forward and bite them, and would not let go until they died.

Whenever this happens, the laughter of the rich can be heard in the house. The laughter was treacherous and disgusting, but no one said they were doing it wrong, because in this world where the strong are respected, strength is everything.

Perhaps there was equality in the realm a few years ago, but now it has long since dissipated with the incident of the Celestial Dragon God King.

No one knew if the Celestial Dragon God King was still alive, because the new emperor and the god kings of the Celestial Clan had blocked all news and hyped up all the "facts" that did not exist. So much so that now there are no more believers in the Heavenly Dragon God King in this realm, and there are no more human rights to speak of.

But to the beggar, he didn't care about any of this, and all he saw was the dinner at the feet of the vicious dog.

Yes, it was undoubtedly the leftover food of the rich and noble, and they did not want to throw it away to the beggars, so they fed it to the dogs.

Still, the meal was delicious, at least with quite a bit of meat in the pile of white rice. And many poor people living in the lower strata may not be able to see a little bit of meat in a few years.

But the meat in the dog's bowl is half of the rice, and it will undoubtedly be a big meal. It's just that there are vicious dogs watching there, and ordinary people don't dare to approach, otherwise this meal would not have been left until now, and it was discovered by this beggar.

And this beggar was also surprisingly bold, and was not afraid of these vicious dogs, and slowly approached the bowl of rice. And this vicious dog is strange to say, when he saw the beggar approaching, he did not come forward to bite, but stretched out his limbs and made a kneeling posture, as if the person in front of him was very remarkable.

The beggar only sighed, and then pounced on the dog's bowl and gulped. He ate so fast that he didn't even spit out the bones, but in a few moments the bowl was as clean as water.

After eating, he was about to leave, but he happened to be seen by those rich people. Originally, a bowl of dog rice was nothing in the eyes of these people, but it was eaten by a beggar, and they couldn't bear it.

Immediately, he hurriedly picked up a dry wooden stick and hit the beggar. The beggar tried to run, but he was too weak to run a few steps, and fell to the ground.

At this time, those rich people had already caught up with him, and without saying a word, they were beaten severely: "Damn! Dead beggars, who want to die, dare to grab food from my dog! How can my dog be compared to your cheap life? You actually made it hungry, and I have to beat you to death today!"

At dusk, these rich people are really tired. Now he saw the beggar lying motionless on the ground, and then he turned away. But they were still not relieved in their hearts, so they turned around and spit out a mouthful of phlegm on their bodies.

In the second half of the night, a thunderclap struck, followed by an endless torrential rain. The rain was so terrible that the rain could pierce the rich man's roof, and he woke the beggar.

In this way, the beggar slowly got up in the mud. Maybe it's because he had eaten a full meal before, but now his physical strength is better.

When he looked up and saw the raindrops in the sky, he made a decision and ran up the mountain.

But he didn't tell anyone about it, because there was no one he knew. Of course, it was more because he wanted to save his energy so that he could run to the top of the mountain.

This was an extremely steep peak, not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary cultivators would find it difficult to climb. But fortunately, there is also an artificially carved bluestone paved road on this mountain.

Although the trail has been untraveled for a few years, so much so that some weeds have spread on the trail. But it's still possible to walk, at least it's a lot easier to get up from here than from anywhere else.

At the end of the road was a ruined temple, which, though now mutilated, could still be seen by the beggars in its ruins.

But now those glories are long gone, and even the statue of the god in the temple is in a dilapidated state.

But fortunately, there is still a fire in this temple, and it is clear that there are still people here. So the beggar stumbled in, and saw several beggars gathering together to make a fire.

And on the fire was roasting a dog that they had sung into tricking from the rich man's house. It's a bit bold to do, but at least it's going to survive.

When one of the older beggars saw the new beggar, he tore off a piece of meat and gave it to the new beggar: "You must be hungry!

"Thank you!" the new beggar took the meat and devoured it. Although he had eaten dog meal once before, it was during the day, and now he was hungry.

Elder beggar: "You and I are both in distress, so we don't need to see outside." ”

At this moment, the new beggar had finished eating the dog meat, and looked outside the temple during the break, only to find that the water had flooded the mountainside, almost flooding the temple on the top of the mountain, and those towns were undoubtedly submerged, and countless lives were lost here.

Looking at the scene in his eyes, there was no pity in the beggar's eyes, the only thing that existed was endless desolation: "What kind of place is this?"

Older beggar: "Do you mean this temple or this country?"

New beggar: "Both." ”

Elder beggar: "Okay then! This was originally the Dragon Country, you know the Dragon Country! The most prosperous country in the territory, there is no oppression, no hunger, no exploitation, there is only freedom, happiness, happiness. And all this is thanks to their emperor, a god-king of the Celestial Race, who dominates the existence of all beings. ”

Speaking of this, the older beggar paused: "But that was a few years ago, but since the Heavenly Dragon God King killed the Lord of the Heavenly Alliance, this place has changed. The gods sent down and punished this place, and killed all the people, and there was not a single one left. And now the people who live here are all outsiders. As for this temple, it was the Heavenly Dragon Temple built for it by the people of the Dragon Kingdom back then, and it is said that the scale here was hundreds of times larger back then, but what do you think it has become now?"

So I say, "One should be content! Knowing that you have the highest glory, don't think about getting more." Otherwise, after a lifetime of intriguing, only to find that he ended up with nothing, what a sad end would it be?"

New Beggar: "But do you really believe this? I mean the things that the Celestial Dragon God King did. ”

Older beggar: "Believe it or not, isn't that what it is? The world is so ridiculous, whether it's true or not, as long as everybody says it, even if it's false, it's true." We are only the lowest level of this world, and we have no power to decide everything, as long as we can live well, it is the greatest happiness, so why bother?"

The new beggar nodded, and said no more. But soon, he remembered something again, and hurriedly asked the old beggar, "May I ask what time it is?"

Elder beggar: "When? How do we beggars who walk around know exactly when? But look at the signs, it must be around the time of the summer rains." It is said that it rained so heavily on the summer solstice a hundred years ago, but I don't know if it's true. After all, very few ordinary people live for more than a hundred years, and I obviously don't have this life. ”

"Xia Yu!" Hearing this, the new beggar's face was covered with tears, so that the mud on his face was almost washed away, revealing his delicate face.

But after a moment of silent pain, the beggar rushed out of the temple as if he had gone mad, and stood in the torrential rain and laughed wildly at the sky: "Haha! How can you do this to me! I am the Heavenly Dragon God King!"

After saying that, the beggar only felt a chill in his back, and a wooden stick smashed towards his head. Before he could react, he fell to the ground.

Then a group of beggars surrounded him and dragged him back to the temple, and the leader was the old beggar: "It seems that the stolen sweat medicine cannot be wetted! But now he's finally fainted! Look at him, he's still wearing a ring on his hand, obviously he used to be a rich boy, I think we might as well divide the contents of his ring. ”

"It's divided, but the ring is only one, how can you divide it?"

"Fart! I stole the medicine, of course it was for me!"

"I still made the fire!"

As he spoke, a group of beggars argued. At that moment, a soft cough sounded, and the beggars hurriedly hid the man.

When he turned his head to look, he found that it was a woman with an extremely beautiful face who came in at this time. Such a look is by no means comparable to those princesses of the human race in the earthly realm, so the first thing that comes to mind in the hearts of the beggars is that the fairy descends to earth, so they also make a commotion.

And kept approaching the girl: "Dare to ask the girl what she is here for?"

Girl: "It's raining so hard outside, my clothes are soaked, and I rushed here when I saw the fire, can I spend the night here?"

"Of course, not only that, but my brothers can also help you warm up!" said him, and threw himself at the girl.

When it was too late, a powerful force suddenly erupted from the girl's body, shaking the beggar far away until it rolled down the hill and was washed away by the water.

The dilapidated temple was destroyed, and the only things left on the top of the hill were maidens and beggars lying on the ground.

For some unknown reason, the beggar was not swept away by the girl's strength, and there was no scar on his body.

This situation attracted the attention of the girl, and then she hurriedly stepped forward, and when she saw the beggar, she screamed happily: "Heavenly Dragon God King Zhao Yulong!

When he woke up again, Zhao Yulong found that he was already lying on a bed, and his unkempt hair had been cleaned and his hair was combed.

The only thing that remained unchanged was the tattered clothes on his body, which made him realize that what he had experienced before was not a dream, but real.

Just then, the girl came in with a bowl of potion. Zhao Yulong remembers very clearly that she is the maid Ruxiang who has been with Tianhai Weier all the year round.

At this moment, Rue Xiang had already placed the decoction in front of him: "You wake up, drink this bowl of decoction while it's hot! ”

Zhao Yulong took the decoction tremblingly, but he didn't rush to drink it, but looked at Ruxiang: "Thank you! But how do you know I'm here?"

Rue: "This...... It's because the princess heard that you managed to escape after being imprisoned, and she didn't worry about your safety. But there's no way she's going to leave the Celestials, so she's called me to see how you're doing. ”

"So that's the case!Then thank you!" Saying that, Zhao Yulong picked up the bowl and was about to drink it, but suddenly remembered something, and then his hands trembled wildly, and the decoction in the bowl continued to overflow outward with the violent shaking of the bowl.

Seeing this, Rue Xiang hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?"

But Zhao Yulong didn't answer her, but his hands trembled more and more. With a crisp sound, the bowl fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, and the decoction was naturally scattered on the ground.

At this time, Zhao Yulong was like crazy, and threw out the quilt covering him and the pillow used to lie down. In that crying voice, he shouted, "What are you doing when you save me! I'm a waste! A piece of waste who can't even hold a bowl!"

As he spoke, he was about to lean down and pick up the fragments of the bowl, but was stopped by Rue.

It is said that people's hearts are flesh and blood, although Rue Xiang went down to the earth realm this time to catch Zhao Yulong back with Yuanqing Shenjun and let him accept endless torture.

But when she saw Zhao Yulong's actions like this, and remembered his glorious appearance in the past, she couldn't help but feel a burst of pity in her heart, and hurriedly hugged Zhao Yulong: "You are not a waste! You are a genius, you are the hope of the whole heavenly clan, don't forget that you are the Heavenly Dragon God King!"

"Heavenly Dragon God King, haha! He has long been dead!Dead!" As he spoke, Zhao Yulong cried louder and louder, and Ruxiang's heart became more and more unbearable.

Then Rue Xiang helped him lie down, and the quilt covered him again: "No, you're not dead, you're just tired, you know? You need to rest, maybe just sleep and everything!"

Zhao Yulong: "Is it okay to get some sleep?"

Rue: "Yes, just get some sleep!"

Soon, Zhao Yulong fell asleep again. And Rue Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the door and crushed the runes, and stood in place and waited.

A moment later, Yuanqing Shenjun flew in on a crane. Although he does not have the heart of an immortal, his old body is quite immortal against the backdrop of the crane.

When I saw him as a crane, I hurriedly asked Rue Xiang, "How is it? Have you found his whereabouts? Where is he?"

Rue Xiang pointed to the house behind him: "He's inside, don't worry! I saw him asleep with my own eyes, nothing will go wrong!"

"What! You watched him fall asleep!broken!" As he spoke, Yuan Qing Shenjun hurriedly ran into the house: "Sure enough, I knew that the Heavenly Dragon Divine King was so cunning, how could he be coaxed to sleep by you so easily?"

Rue Xiang heard the sound and ran in, but found that a big hole had been broken in the window, which was obviously made by Zhao Yulong. couldn't help but get anxious: "It's broken, what can I do about this?"

Yuanqing Shenjun has seen more after all, but now he is not panicking: "How long did you last see him?"

Rue: "Half an hour ago, what happened?"

Yuanqing Shenjun: "Half an hour...... With his current strength, he shouldn't be able to run far in half an hour, and we still have a chance, hurry up!"

After speaking, Yuanqing Shenjun rode on the crane and chased in the direction where Zhao Yulong fled. And Rue Xiang saw that Yuanqing Shenjun had caught up, so she was naturally not willing to lag behind, and chased after her.

As Yuan Qing Shenjun expected, Zhao Yulong really can't run far now. Because of his body, he has to fall almost every few steps, then get up and run again, and then continue to wrestle.

Therefore, this half an hour did not allow him to run far, and at this time, he could hear the cry of the crane behind him.

Now that he has his hearing loss, he can still see the crane, which can only mean that Yuanqing Shenjun is close to him, and it is easy to catch him.

And Yuanqing Shenjun is a weathered person after all, so naturally he will not be as easy to deceive as Ruexiang. Therefore, Zhao Yulong knew very well that once it fell into his hands, he would really be finished.

Fortunately, the torrent did not recede at this moment, Zhao Yulong shook his teeth, and simply jumped directly into the torrent, letting the current wash it away anywhere.

And Yuanqing Shenjun saw that he was about to catch Zhao Yulong, but he didn't want him to jump into the torrent. was about to go into the water to catch it, but found that the water was extremely turbid, and even he couldn't see things underwater, let alone catch Zhao Yulong, so he had to stop: "It's a pity that this kid ran away! But he fell into the torrent, and with his current strength, he shouldn't be able to live long." ”
