When: September 9, 2040

......

"Audience friends, good evening, welcome to Longling TV, I am the host Xiao Qing, the temperature has gradually dropped in recent days, all viewers and friends must pay attention to the cold and keep warm. ”

On the huge widescreen LCD TV, Longling City is a household name, and the most popular beautiful host, Xiao Qing, with a professional smile, said refreshingly: "Tonight, for all astronomy lovers, is an important day, through the astronomical telescope, people arrive, it can be said that it is a once-in-a-lifetime astronomical wonder." According to the Celestial Family, the last time the seven planets joined together occurred on February 5, 962, and the next one will not be until September 9, 2040, which is today. It's a once-in-a-century spectacle......"

"Seven Stars?" Li Yi rolled his eyes, then put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, straightened his coat, walked to the balcony of the bedroom, and looked up at the dark sky.

"Genius, you don't want to rely on the seven stars with the naked eye, right?" In the bedroom, Shi Min, the man with glasses, walked to the balcony with Li Yi to look up at the sky, habitually pushed the lensless frame on the bridge of his nose, and subconsciously smiled and asked, "That's impossible." The alignment of the seven stars has the 'participation' of the sun and can only appear during the day, unless there is a solar eclipse, in which case the sun's brilliance will drown out the starlight. It's 9 p.m. on our side, and it's 10 a.m. on the U.S. side, so even if there is a solar eclipse, we won't be there. ”

"It's okay, I'm just curious. Li Yi smiled slightly and said, "The once-in-a-century spectacle may be able to make me win the lottery." ”

Folk superstition says that the appearance of the seven stars can bring good luck to people. Li Yi said this sentence, but it was just a joke.

"Haha, good luck then. Shi Min smiled, "If you win the lottery, remember to ask us to rub it, me and the fat man will wait, fat man, do you say it's ......."

"Oh grass, every time I see Sister Qing, my brother has the urge to masturbate. On the leather sofa, the fat man Liu Jiao stared at the charming smiling face of the beautiful host Xiao Qing, staring at her seductive full red lips, with a lewd face.

"Get out, you fat man, you want to go to the bathroom, brother doesn't want your ugly thing. Shi Min scolded angrily.

"You're a jealous brother bigger than you, thicker than you, and longer than you!"

"Haha, okay, if I really win the prize, please go to the 'Caesar's Palace' and serve it all in one stop. Li Yi replied with a smile, staring at the dark sky, and his intuition told him that something was wrong tonight, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Maybe it's because of the seven stars tonight. Li Yi comforted himself and pulled his coat with both hands. It's just the beginning of September, but it's getting colder.

Technology is evolving, and so is the weather. With global warming, the climate of the entire earth is undergoing incredible mutations. Twenty years ago, some of Europe's coastal cities were already flooded by rising sea levels. 0 years ago, the climate in the UK was already as cold and dry as Siberia.

While the summer monsoon brings a lot of precipitation to China, it also causes a lot of negative effects, and the ferocious floods also cause a lot of land loss. The reduction of water vapor evaporation and cooling has led to the arrival of a cold winter, which is twice as long as it was 20 years ago.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the sky was dark, there were no stars, only a round of tulle gray moonlight, hanging on the horizon. Faintly, on the hazy surface of the moon, there seemed to be extra red lines as thin as spider silk. made the originally holy Yuehua suddenly a little more weird and enchanting.

Li Yi rubbed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, the spider-like red lines disappeared. A gust of night wind blew, Li Yi subconsciously shook his body, his spirit was shocked, and he laughed at himself, "I really drank too much tonight." ”

Today is the day when the old college students return to school, Li Yi did not go to work part-time, but had dinner with Shi Min, the fat man Liu Jiao, who was in the same dormitory, and several old students in the dormitory next door. At the wine table, it was inevitable to drink a few more glasses.

I never thought that after I came back, I drank a few cups of hot tea, and my mind was still a little confused, and the moon was dazzling. Feeling the coolness in the air, Li Yi exhaled softly, and suddenly, a cloud of white gas emerged in front of his mouth. With his hands pressed on the railing of the balcony, Li Yi looked at the brightly lit Longling City, and his thoughts drifted into the distance.

......

With the spread of urbanization, by 2040, most of China will already be urban. The gap between the rural and urban areas is also gradually narrowing.

Li Yi was born in a small mountain village in a small town on the edge of Longling City. It's just that compared to others, Li Yi's childhood was very miserable. As soon as he was born, his mother died. When he was five years old, his father also died of illness. Fortunately, Li Yi has an adoptive mother, who was a kind woman who was matched with his father when Li Yi was three years old. Li Yi, who grew up with his adoptive mother and sister, is the only male in the family, and the burden on his shoulders can be imagined.

Since he was a child, Li Yi's academic performance has always been among the best, and he has long occupied the first place in his grade, and no one can surpass him. Whenever he handed over the award certificate and prize money to his adoptive mother, the relieved smile on the latter's face was his biggest motivation.

Li Yi knows that only getting the best results is the best reward for his adoptive mother. He respects and loves his adoptive mother, and treats her as his own mother. Elementary, middle, high, always. It wasn't until the day I got out of the college entrance examination and chose a university that I had an argument with my adoptive mother for the first time.

The source is very simple, the adoptive mother wants Li Yi, who ranked first in the province in the college entrance examination, to enter the highest university in the country, Qingmu University. Li Yi, on the other hand, chose Longling University. Just because Longling University exempted him from all the fees for four years, and there was a bonus of 500,000 yuan.

Li Yi, who has been well-behaved and obedient since childhood, did not listen to his adoptive mother for the first time and chose Longling University. got the 500,000 bonus to improve the embarrassed home. At Longling University, he lived in the most luxurious suite dormitory and was a well-known talent in the school. Teachers teach favorite students, and boys who are sought after and secretly loved by senior sisters and sisters. The object of envy and jealousy of seniors.

But Li Yi did not fall because of this, and properly handled interpersonal relationships, except for Shi Min and Liu Jiao in the same bedroom. and others, neither too far nor too close. Let a senior sister grit her teeth with secret hatred and scold elm head. While studying hard, Li Yi also found several part-time jobs outside. Today is just back to school, and under the deadlift of Shi Min and the fat man, it is rare to go out and relax.

"Click! Click......"

A mechanically synthesized voice suddenly sounded. Li Yi, who was contemplative, came back to his senses, and saw that the fat man Liu Jiao didn't know when, he set up a telescope by his side, facing the manual, and quickly adjusted.

"Fatty, did you buy an astronomical telescope?" After a short period of stunnedness, Li Yi exclaimed in surprise, "Damn, you girl, you don't take out this kind of treasure earlier." ”

There are three bedrooms, the fat man Liu Jiao's family is the richest, and his mother Qin Ru is the deputy mayor of Longling City, focusing on the economy. His father, Liu Zhenhua, is the most famous entrepreneur in Longling City, with three listed companies and assets of tens of billions. There is also a sister who is two years younger than him, Liu Shiyao.

As the only man, Liu Jiao's favor can be imagined. Bad grades still enter Longling University and live in the most luxurious suite dormitory. It's not unusual to be able to afford expensive astronomical telescopes.

"Hehe, wouldn't there be no surprise if you took it out early. The fat man Liu Jiao fiddled with the astronomical telescope without raising his head, and smiled proudly.

With the development of science and technology, the observation hole of the astronomical telescope is no longer a bamboo tube, and can only be observed by one person. Rather, it is a palm-sized display screen, as long as the lens and focal length are adjusted in place, it can be enjoyed by several people at the same time.

"Alright, alright, Seven Stars has appeared. Shi Min, who was staring at the display screen, shouted at the right time.

Hearing this, the fat man Liu Jiao stopped adjusting, raised his head and stood on both sides of Shi Min with Li Yi, the heads of the three people were together, and their eyes were fixed on the picture on the display screen.

In the vast starry sky, seven planets, large and small, were slowly juxtaposed in a straight line. The alignment of seven stars refers to the alignment of seven planets together to form a planetary alignment with an angle of less than a degree. The seven planets that appear on the screen at this time are Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, and Pluto.

Li Yi and the three of them are not professional astronomy enthusiasts. It's just that tonight is a seven-star alignment that can only be seen once in a century, and the fat man Liu Jiao happened to buy an astronomical telescope, how can he miss such a century-old opportunity.

After staring at the display screen for a long time, the faces of the three suddenly became weird. The fat man Liu Jiao was the first to speak, "Why am I more and more like a door?!"

That's right, this time the seven stars show an extremely weird picture. Unlike the previously recorded planetary alignment celestial phenomena, it is a straight line. This time, the angle of the arc composed of the seven planets has obviously exceeded the degree, let alone a straight line, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an arc.

Observing this celestial phenomenon, not only Li Yi and the others, but also celestial families and astronomy enthusiasts around the world have discovered this strange picture. The seven planets, as if controlled by some force, lined up to form a hidden door. Erected in the vast starry sky, it shocks people's eyes.

"Quick!, the door seems to be opened...... "Shi Min shouted with some trembling.

Li Yi and the fat man Liu Jiao were both shocked, and their eyes were staring at the display screen.

In the deep and charming starry sky, the gate composed of seven planets seemed to be pulled by a huge force at this time, and a gap was forcibly opened. A strange red light was revealed, and through the crack in the door, it shot in the direction of the earth.

"Wow!"

Almost at the same time, a vast white light suddenly fell from the sky. In an instant, the whole world was snow-white, and the dazzling white light overwhelmed Li Yi and the others......
