Early in the morning, wake up to the continuous sound of cannonballs.

The air was filled with heavy gunsmoke, which was pervasive, and when it entered the nostrils of Yunfeng, who was still lazy on the bed, it suddenly made people sleepy and sneezed.

The cloud wind pushed open the windowsill, and a puff of smoke drifted in. At this time, the sun has not yet appeared, the morning light is hazy, the street is shrouded in a layer of faint smoke, the eaves are hidden in the meantime, like the heavenly palace, the firecrackers flicker, illuminating people's faces red, and laughing faces.

"The requiem season is full of fog, and I don't know how to understand the spring of the year. Yuan Yuan pushed open the window, and the room was adjacent to Yunfeng.

Yunfeng has been coming to the Golden City for more than two months, almost only in the arena and the residence, looking at this strange city, a lot of thoughts, after a short period of requiem, he will be sixteen, this year still failed to go back to worship Uncle Jing, is a pity.

The lanterns in Willow Lane are charming, and he asked forward by the light. "In the three years of twilight, Yunfeng and Yueji have never celebrated any festivals, and they meditate on penance, just because there is a bright light in their hearts that shines in the direction of the road ahead.

The morning light is getting warmer, sprinkled on the smoky city, like a dream. Accompanied by the sound of cannons, a winding long dragon shuttles through the streets and alleys, hundreds of sturdy men are full of tacit understanding, the dragon body rises and falls smoothly, the left and right are together, and it is very beautiful.

Yunfeng and his entourage merged into the flow of people, Rao is the wide street of the Golden City, at this time, they were also shoulder to shoulder, heel stepping, most of the people in the city were probably already gathered outside.

The crowd surging in front of them suddenly stopped, and even retreated, and at a glance they saw only dense human heads, only where they could stand.

A majestic dragon head turned around the corner and appeared in front of the cheering crowd. The two swinging dragon whiskers are delicate and soft, lifelike, and the dragon's eyes are like electricity, and they are daunting. The body of the dragon is behemoth, held up by three hundred and thirty-three strong men, such a vast and huge thing, it takes several skilled craftsmen to prepare three months in advance.

The big men were all shirtless, and their muscles were vigorous and powerful, but even so, they couldn't resist the successive firecracker bombardments.

It's a tradition. Whenever the requiem is sacrificed to the dragon, the dragon dancer needs to be naked and receive the baptism of firecrackers, which means that the people of the world will bear the ups and downs and no longer be disturbed by evil spirits.

The firecrackers that people threw at it have been specially improved, and their scale and power are much smaller, but even so, they are bombarded indiscriminately by the dense bee-like firecrackers, and no matter how strong the person is, he will not be able to resist it, and there are often many people who break the skin and bleed in a round, so there will be many alternates to follow the dragon team, ready to replace at any time.

"Do you say that there are really dragons in this world?" Shen Jiuli asked, there must be many people who have the same idea as him, after all, the dragon is just a legend, although it is occasionally described in some wild history magazines before the era, but it is only a hurry, maybe it is just the imagination of people in ancient times, after all, there has been no evidence of the exact existence of dragons today.

"I don't think so, if so, where are they?" Chen Ming said, "According to ancient records, dragons may have appeared earlier than humans when heaven and earth were founded, and their strength and wisdom were higher than that of humans, such a powerful species, I can't imagine what kind of force would make it extinct, at least it should exist longer than humans, but why can't we find it?"

Chen Ming's words are not reasonable, the surface of the universe is infinite, the end of the universe is infinite, if there are more advanced species than human beings in the sun, moon and stars, more powerful beings than cultivators, and have the ability to travel the universe, they should have come into contact with human beings as soon as possible.

"I think so. Yun Feng had a different opinion, "Since the dragons are more powerful than us, they may have hidden abilities that cannot be discovered by humans, maybe they have already been in contact with us, but we didn't notice it, or maybe for some unavoidable reason, they don't want to be known." ”

"What do you think, Yuan Yuan?"

At this time, the dragon team has been far away, although the street is not smooth, but it has also regained the ability to move, Yuan Yuan touched his belly and said: "I don't know if there are dragons, I only know - I'm hungry." ”

“......”

Perhaps because people are out and about, the liquor shop seems quiet.

"I just can't figure it out. Shen Jiuli gnawed on the chicken leg and said angrily: "Why do the characters in the classic stories, especially the heroes and heroines, rarely have descriptions of them eating, drinking, and Lazar, they are not born immortals, don't they need to eat, shit, fart, and pop?"

Chen Ming said with a look of disdain: "Don't tie me up with you, not everyone is like you, you have to tell others about eating, drinking, and Lazar." ”

Shen Jiuli retorted, "When have you heard me tell you about popping?"

"Hehe, someone has to snap with you. Chen Ming sneered and mocked mercilessly.

"I am a dignified young master of the Shen family, there are more girls pursuing me, even Zi Shuyi ......" Shen Jiuli said more and more carried away, in order to show his unparalleled charm, he brought Zi Shuyi in by the way, but the latter's name was too loud, although there were not many guests in the building at this time, there were also a few tables, and when he heard that someone mentioned Zi Shuyi, they all looked sideways, and for a while Shen Jiuli had to lower his voice embarrassedly: "Even Zi Shuyi, I don't care about it." ”

"Cut ......" This time it was not Chen Ming who booed him, but the guests in the building, and they couldn't get used to Shen Jiuli's cheekiness.

Chen Ming took this opportunity to add fuel and vinegar: "See, the eyes of the masses are bright and bright." ”

Shen Jiuli was surrounded and suppressed by everyone, and the steps he came down were shattered into slag, and he could only stare and stand for a while, but after a while, he sat down casually and said: "The ancestor has a saying, the Tao is everywhere, and even if you are drowning in, you can also get a glimpse of the enlightenment of the Great Dao." Therefore, what I just said is not unreasonable, the story should not deliberately avoid the world, and the layman should have the appearance of the layman. ”

Chen Ming saw that Shen Jiuli was still arguing with words, and even the ancestor moved out, and deliberately followed his words and asked, "Then may I ask what avenue you have comprehended in?"

"Don't talk about that. Shen Jiuli had something to do, his eyebrows fluttered, and he looked like a preacher, looking like there was really some truth and goodness about to be born, benefiting the people, purifying all sentient beings, and saving the people from dire straits.

"Scallion oil biscuits are delicious, aren't they?" he picked up a biscuit and deliberately raised his voice, as if he wanted to let the table next to him, who had mocked him before, also smell the way of enlightenment: "But I found that I can't eat scallion oil biscuits together when I go to the thatched house, otherwise the smell of the thatched house and the smell of scallion oil will be mixed together, and it will produce a strange pungent and disgusting taste." ”

"Uh...... How to say it, the feeling is like putting shit on a pot and stir-frying it around, and the mixed smell of human waste is rich and stimulating, filling the entire thatched house and entering every pore of the body...... You feel ...... in your mouth."

"!" Before Shen Jiuli finished speaking, the guest at the next table had already overturned the table, if it wasn't for the friend next to him to stop him, Shen Jiuli would have been beaten by a fat beating.

"Well, you win. Rao is calm Chen Ming can't stand it, it's rare for him to be generous on his birthday, but his good interest has been swept away. Yuan Yuan, as always, was as cheerful as ever, and was not affected in the slightest.

Yun Feng thought to himself, even if the sky falls, I'm afraid it won't be able to stop Yuan Yuan from eating, oh, it's eating.

Just when everyone was complaining and unanimously crusading against Shen Jiuli, the sky seemed to really fall......

The sunlight on the projection table suddenly escaped, and the long light seemed to be cut by someone with scissors, and finally broke away from the table, and the bright sky immediately dimmed, like the scene of dark clouds covering the sun before a heavy rain.

"What's going on?" the exclamation from the street came to the liquor store, and the darkening sky was not caused by dark clouds, and some customers began to walk outside to find out.

"Let's go, let's take a look?" Shen Jiuli proposed, the weather was too weird, and several people had a bad omen in their hearts.

"It's ...... Solar eclipse?"

The red sun was in the sky, but there was a gap missing, like a big cake that Zhang had bitten into by someone. Folks call this phenomenon "Tengu Eclipse Sun", and the spiritual world defines it as "Solar Eclipse".

The notch gradually widens and is replaced by black, and the black part of the scorching sun seems to enter another space. The sky was getting more and more gloomy, the temperature seemed to become cold as the sun waned, a chill hit, a strong wind blew out of nowhere, and shredded firecrackers danced wildly all over the sky.

"As far as I know, there have been no solar eclipses since recorded requiem festivals. "Yuan Yuan was fighting with roast chicken before, and he was completely pulled out by Chen Ming. According to Yunfeng's observation, although Yuan Yuan was very arrogant on weekdays, when he encountered key problems, Chen Ming and Shen Jiuli seemed to attach great importance to his opinion.

And this is different from the scene of the solar eclipse recorded in ancient books. ”

In the life of ordinary people, it is rare to see a solar eclipse, but there are many records in the long history of the Underworld Continent, the most recent total solar eclipse occurred fifteen years ago, and it is also described in detail in ancient books.

"Flood Notes": "At the turn of October, the new day is hard, and the sun is eclipsed. The first loss, the food is both, the food is very much, the light is born, and the five food phases are also rounded. ”

At the same time as the sun is being eaten, the hue gradually changes, at first it is light red, and as the area of the black shadow continues to increase, the red becomes darker, like a cloth soaked in a dye vat for a long time, and it is still dripping with blood-red water when it is scooped up.

Eventually, the scorching sun was completely swallowed up, and the earth was darkened, and when you looked at the sky, only a broken crimson circle of light remained.

The crowd was not confused, and everyone squinted at the sky in unison, waiting for the day to return.

For some reason, Yun Feng always felt a little depressed, and the air around him was filled with a strange smell.

"Ah......h

I don't know who in the crowd let out a scream, which was creepy, and then fell into silence, and for a moment failed to attract people's attention, when a woman noticed some slimy liquid dripping on her face, touched it, sniffed it, and finally hissed: "Blood...... Blood ......"

"Hell......"

"Help......

"Mom's ......"

Screams rang out one after another, and the crowd was chaotic and running in all directions. In the faint light, blood splattered everywhere, splashed all over the ground, stumps and broken legs were constantly thrown in front of the panicked people, and the overly frightened people were like irrational beasts, ruthlessly trampling on the bodies of their companions, and for a while, the Golden City seemed like a hell on earth.

"Chen Ming, draw your sword. In the chaos, Yun Feng heard Yuan Yuan say.

When he was with Chen Ming, Yun Feng never found out that he was carrying any weapons, but with Yuan Yuan's words, Chen Ming flicked his thumb, and a white light reflected in the darkness!

At this moment, a hideous white shadow floated in.

"Evil Spirit ......"

The two words gently spit out from Yuan Yuan's mouth.
