On the banks of the Xiangjiang River, the second crop of rice has been harvested, and the gray-yellow rice stubble is neatly arranged in rows, like an army being reviewed. The third crop of rice is the time for rice planting.

The rice transplanter is a new gadget that has only been invented in recent years. This thing can replace a lot of hard labor for people, although it is not smooth enough, and the rice does not grow well in the first place, but this is a small section.

The driver was a young woman with a white towel on her head, and she was driving the rice transplanter, looking left and right, her slippery eyes glaring at the boss, for fear that she would miss something.

Suddenly, a deep water mark crossed the water surface of the rice paddy, as if a warship was coming through the waves. The woman was startled and screamed loudly, "The monster is coming."

A thick puff of black smoke came out from behind the butt of the rice transplanter, like a mechanical toad on a clockwork, rumbling forward. The rice transplanter came to an abrupt halt at the ridge of the field, and the girl jumped out of the cab and fled. But after running a few steps, she noticed that there was no movement around her, and she couldn't help but peek behind her.

There are no monsters, and the surroundings are calm.

She couldn't help but scratch her head and look at the water seriously. I saw a big fish in the muddy rice field leisurely spit out a blister and dived. The woman couldn't help but laugh, straightened her big pants, and got into the rice transplanter again.

The woman's surname is Tian, her name is very delicate, her name is Tian Xiuxiu, and she is one of the latest rice transplanter drivers. A large number of people have resigned from this position, and now only those who have eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard dare to apply.

In the stiff sound of the rice transplanter, the sun has already set in the west.

Tian Xiuxiu locked the car and walked home briskly along the path in the field. She was in a very happy mood, and it felt good to have survived another day. On the road, the grass is green and full of the sweet smell of earth. But Tian Xiuxiu had no interest in this, and after a busy day, she just wanted to go home as soon as possible and have a fragrant dinner.

Suddenly, her eyes swept to a person walking behind her, the other party was barefoot, but it was as clean as new, and it was not stained with any dust. Although he was barefoot, his steps were very brisk, and he quickly caught up with him.

"Hello, is it convenient to inquire about something. ”

The person who came a little closer, and Tian Xiuxiu saw it more clearly. The other party's dusty servants were obviously in a hurry, but their faces were glowing with jade-colored luster, which made the ordinary facial features have a noble temperament. The ancients often said that there is poetry and writing in the belly, but Tian Xiuxiu has never had an intuitive impression. There were too many bales of straw around her. And now, the people who come have a similar temperament.

The person who came was Du Lengqiu, he walked thousands of miles, wearing the stars and the moon, not only did he not have the color of wind and frost, but his spirit was condensed as one, and he was like two people before.

Tian Xiuxiu is very vigilant, although the social security is excellent now, it can't prevent some idiots from committing crimes against the wind. Especially in this kind of wilderness, she is a weak woman......

Tian Xiuxiu, who fell into the plot she made up and couldn't extricate herself, completely forgot the existence of the other party. After a while, she suddenly came to her senses and said, "Who are you?"

Immediately, her face turned red, even her wheat-colored skin could not hide it, and she hurriedly looked left and right and said to him, "What question do you want to ask?"

"I heard there's a monster around here?"

Speaking of monsters, Tian Xiuxiu's expression immediately became nervous, she hurriedly glanced left and right, and was relieved to see that there was no movement, and then blamed: "What is there to say about the monster, I just heard that this monster has been drilling in the ground all year round, and I never thought of seeing it." ”

Du Lengqiu smiled, "No one wants to encounter monsters, but aren't there any rumors?"

"Hey, I don't care about that. Anyway, everything will not be fine, and a dead end will be encountered. Why bother yourself?"

"In this world now, living one more day is earning, so why bother?"

Tian Xiuxiu shrugged her shoulders, and her attitude seemed to be very open-minded. Naturally, she forgot about her previous ugly state of running away in embarrassment.

"Gee, what's the delay in this damn place? The last bus is going to be out of service. I'm going home, what else do I have to do tonight?" Tian Xiuxiu was startled, turned around and trotted.

After crossing the ridge and walking on the main road, I saw more people. Tian Xiuxiu greeted a few acquaintances, and was a little puzzled when she saw their strange eyes, and then realized that it was because of Du Lengqiu. She turned her head, glared at Du Lengqiu fiercely, and said loudly: "This person came to ask about the monster, who of you knows." ”

Everyone immediately looked sideways, but no one spoke, just glanced at Du Lengqiu covertly and gave up. "It seems that life has beaten these for a long time. Du Lengqiu was not disappointed, in fact, he already knew about the monster, and he talked to Tian Xiuxiu, but he just wanted to see the attitude of ordinary people towards it, so that he could decide whether to kill or stay.

He did not follow everyone in the car, but followed the minibus and strode away. But no matter how fast the driver accelerated, he couldn't get rid of it.

Everyone in the car looked at this strange scene, and they were dumbfounded. Soon the bus turned south along the cement road, and Du Lengqiu stepped into the muddy water of the rice field, he actually went straight all the way west, and did not plan to turn. Looking at his direction, it seems that he is not going to Yueyang City, but to Dongting Lake.

After returning to the city, Tian Xiuxiu still thought about this chance encounter. Even the braised pork ribs made by my mother are not very sweet.

Tian's mother is fifty-seven years old, with gray hair, and retired two years ago. But in today's world, inflation is serious. The amount of pension is difficult to even eat. She also wanted to find something to do, but it was difficult for even a young man to find something, let alone an old lady like her. Because of this, Tian Xiuxiu gritted her teeth and signed up for the driver of this rice transplanter. It's not that she's not afraid, it's all forced by life.

"Xiuxiu, you have something on your mind!" Tian's mother used to be a primary school teacher, and her tone of voice has always been very gentle.

Tian Xiuxiu instantly retorted, "How can there be?"

Tian Ma smiled kindly and put a rib in her bowl, "I'm your mother, what can't be said to me." ”

Tian Xiuxiu picked up the rice in a panic, but still ate all the grains left. It is true that there is not a grain of rice left, and at the price of 300 yuan per catty of rice, there are not many people who are willing to waste it.

"Xiuxiu, you've eaten. Let's go to Aunt Qin's house in Gobi. Tian's mother began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks and prepare to wash the dishes, looking at her daughter spread on the bed, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed. can be distressed again, and the blind date can't be stopped.

Tian Xiuxiu groaned, "Mom, just spare me." I'm tired today. ”

"No, I can't. ”

Tian Ma soaked the dishes and chopsticks in the pool and began to release water. While washing the dishes, she preached: "Men should get married, and women should get married." Especially in times like these, it is too difficult for a woman's family to live alone. ”

Tian Xiuxiu turned over and threw her back to her mother, and retorted in a muffled voice: "What's so difficult, we haven't had a good life yet." ”

Tian Ma was a little angry, and said in a long voice: "Go quickly!"

The two sides struggled for a few rounds, and Tian Xiuxiu had to leave the house in submission. Outdoors, the stars shine brightly, and the lights of thousands of homes complement each other.

She kicked the stones on the road, a little sullen. I didn't walk a few steps to Aunt Qin's house, which is actually an ordinary neighbor relationship. But because they were in the same community before and knew each other, the two families came and went more frequently after the relocation.

She walked to the door of Aunt Qin's house, and when she was about to knock on the door, she somehow remembered Du Lengqiu's face without the slightest flaw.

"Oh, really, I forgot how the other party maintained it, freckles, acne and dark lines, and there was no defect at all. It was like me, twenty-six years old, and I looked like thirty. ”

She smiled, suddenly didn't want to go in, turned around and left, and took a slow walk by the lights of each house, but she was thinking in her heart: At this time, I don't know what that guy is doing?

Du Lengqiu stood on the shore of Dongting Lake, the cold wind was quiet, and the water surface was finely rippled. Thousands of meters next to him are Yueyang Tower, Sandrunken Pavilion and other buildings, under the starlight, he can see clearly. But he has little interest in such cultural attractions. He was interested in two squirrels in the treetops.

They were saying tender love words, "Husband, our place is too dangerous, let's move quickly." ”

"Wife, it's almost winter now. The fruits are all hidden here, and if they move somewhere else, won't they starve to death?"

"But there are monsters in this lake, in case they pass by our house. When the big tree falls, will we still be okay?"

Du Lengqiu glanced at it and saw that the big trees thirty meters away were crooked, and the soil on the ground was flying, as if it had been hooked by a huge plow out of thin air.

"Wife, we don't have to be so unlucky. ”

"Husband, I'm afraid of ......"

"Wife, don't be afraid, I'll open you a pine cone to suppress the shock. ”

Du Lengqiu shook his head and smiled.

He stood by the lake, slowly adjusting his breath, and in one breath and one breath, it merged with Dongting Lake, as if the sparkling surface of the lake merged with him.

The waning moon faded from the sky, the starlight dimmed, and the world fell into the deepest darkness. This is the inevitable process before dawn, and Du Lengqiu's figure is the same as before.

A glimmer of bright color floated in the east, and the sky in the west was shining brightly. Yueyang City in the distance seemed to wake up from a deep sleep with a yawn.

Du Lengqiu suddenly opened his eyes, opened his mouth and swallowed violently, the first purple qi had been incorporated into his sea of qi. This was like a signal, his blood was boiling, and the gods in the sea of consciousness were suddenly entangled together.

It's a moment of life and death. Especially Du Lengqiu's advancement on the earth, which is even more dangerous on the south side, it is the success that is extraordinary, and the defeat is destruction, and there is no third way to go.

Yueyang City

Tian Xiuxiu opened her eyes and immediately saw that Tian's mother was making breakfast, there was no secret scientific research in the small house at all, and the worry on Tian's mother's face was clearly visible. A feeling of guilt rose in her heart. Last night, I fooled my mother and said that the man in Aunt Qin's family disliked my work, and the danger of my work would make my mother worried. It's stupid not to say that.

She patted her face, squeezed out a smile, and exclaimed, "Mom, good morning!"

Tian Xiuxiu suddenly became polite, making Tian Ma look at her suspiciously, and was about to ask something, when suddenly a thunderous long whistle came from the sky. Like a crane chirping, like a phoenix, the sound was not loud at first, but with the passage of time, not only did it not become smaller, but became more and more intense, resounding and stirring the clouds, stirring the blue sky.

The tables, chairs and benches in their room were trembling slightly, and the glass windows were humming softly, as if they were about to burst, and the two hurriedly left the house, and then saw Aunt Qin's family also fleeing outside the house, all looking at the direction from which the voice came from with a suspicious expression.

It is the outskirts of Yueyang, on the shore of Dongting Lake.

At this time, the people of the entire Yueyang City walked out, and hundreds of thousands of people looked in the same direction. Those who were woken up in their sleep did not curse, as if they also had a premonition that something extraordinary was about to happen. Immediately after, another voice came like thunder, like a word but not a word, like a song but not a song, but it was dark and rhythmic.

There is no rootless tree, the flowers are delicate, and the sky should be starry and the tide should be met.

Slay the dragon sword, bind the tiger, and run the Tiangang to turn the bucket spoon.

Exercise a furnace of real sun and moon, sweeping 3,600 pieces.

Step into the sky, let it go, and the dirt and dust will disappear.

The sound comes and goes fast. At this time, people were stunned to find that the dark clouds in the sky were speeding away, and the morning glow in the east was completely covered by dark clouds. The morning had turned into night in an instant, and lightning and thunder thundered in the dark clouds, and a trace of lightning occasionally appeared, as if brewing thunder that destroyed the heavens and the earth.

Tian Xiuxiu didn't know what was going on, but she felt that this incident was inseparable from the man she met yesterday.

Under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of people, the first lightning bolts were shot out of the terrifying black clouds. Bright lightning tore through the darkness and illuminated the terrified faces of the people.

With the help of this all-earth-penetrating lightning, everyone suddenly found that there was a person standing under the dark clouds. The thunderbolt seemed to have struck him right now. Followed by thousands of thunderbolts falling like raindrops, the muffled thunder was endless, and this person seemed to be intolerable to heaven and earth.

After a long time, someone whispered: "What kind of sin has this person made, he was chopped like this." ”

An old man trembled on crutches and scolded: "Demon, it must be a demon." This is the Heavenly Thunder Demon Demon. ”

"Shut up for me, clear the world, Lang Lang, how can there be demons in the world. "The person who spoke was righteous and awe-inspiring, and people couldn't help but believe it. Everyone looked at the dark clouds in the sky and immediately shut up.
