Chapter 1: Rain

"That's all you have."

Listening to the ridicule coming from afar, Lu Hui slowly got up, and in the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, only a little orange halo was floating in the extreme distance, and he asked very vigilantly, "Who are you?" ”

"Who am I?" The faint voice floating from the light suddenly erupted into a heartless laugh, "Who am I...... Yes! ”

The man suddenly cried again as he spoke, but Lu Hui remembered in a strange trance that someone was special or even the only one. He wanted to go over and take a look, but when he came back to his senses, he found that the light was long gone, and in the deathly darkness, he could even clearly catch the heartbeat in his chest.

I don't know how long later, there was a slight strange sound in all directions, and a color deeper and more mysterious than the darkness spread from the depths of the darkness...... They were as cold as ice, and wisps slowly crawled towards Lu Hui's limbs like tentacles, entangled, climbed up his face, squirmed into his eyes, mouth and nose, and penetrated into every inch of his flesh and blood!

Suddenly, there was a tingling in my hand.

With a strong feeling of fear and suffocation, Lu Hui woke up in a dream like a new life, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the nurse sister who was busy hanging the bottle on the side, looking at her back in a hurry, as if her shoulder-length short hair overlapped something in the swaying, silent for a long time, but he was always indifferent, like a sick branch that has fallen flowers and withered in the spring breeze...... Eventually, they all left.

……

……

In the year of the ephemeris, a dragon destroyed a city in a rage, and then a mysterious person appeared, cut off a corner of it, and made it flee in a hurry.

With the Inhuman Association blocking certain news and countermeasures, the image of the dragon destroying the city made it to the ninth hot talk list overnight - far from the previous one - after all, in this world, such things are not uncommon......

People who didn't know the truth afterwards talked about it, and some people said that Tianlong went down to go home for Wen Quxing, and destroyed the iron city because the old man died in the iron city; Others said that the inhabitants of the Iron City were so rich that the gods were red-eyed, so they laid down a snake......

And rumors are rumors after all, and while stirring up this matter, it also stirs up this matter.

In the days of the hospital bed, Lu Hui listened to dreams from the bed, flipped through all kinds of news about the dragon on the Internet, and combined with his own state and the state of others, all kinds of signs only indicated one thing......

Lu Hui stared at Sun Lei, who had a broken right leg on the side of the bed, and asked with a questioning face: "I have amnesia?" ”

Sun Lei raised his eyes to look at Lu Hui, whose face was pale, threw the freshly peeled orange peel into the trash, slowly peeled off a petal and put it into his lips, savored it and said slowly: "No." ”

Lu Hui licked his dry lips, and just wanted to open his mouth, but suddenly lost his appetite again, and frowned: "Then what's going on?" ”

Sun Lei replied very seriously: "Stupid! ”

Lu Hui put aside his head, not wanting to pay attention to Sun Lei's jokes, but it did prove that he had amnesia, and was wondering, when a heart-piercing pain suddenly came from his chest, and his face was as pale as snow in an instant, and he felt bad.

However, when Lu Hui realized how serious the matter was, it seemed that there was no special part of his life missing, the water was still non-toxic, the wind was still flowing, the sun was still shining, Sun Lei was still cheap, except for the place where he lived moved from Tiecheng to Bihe Township, it seemed that only the desert was not the same as in his memory.

……

……

It was a cloudy morning, and there were rumors everywhere that the first rain in the Eastern Wilderness in nearly a hundred years would fall. In Bihe Township, as a gathering place for disaster victims, the fields have long been filled with canopies with oilcloth roofs, and the air is filled with endless shouts and a dull and unbearable smell of moisture.

The boy probably thought that people were too noisy, so he silently avoided the crowd and walked alone out of the dense forest and into the desert along a narrow road. He kept walking, as if he had gradually become numb in a dream in the past, until Bihe Township turned into a green line in the distant sky, and until the Siye sand dunes were empty, he was relieved and relieved.

The breeze passed, the desert sand floated, and the dust covered the sky.

The first rain in the East Wilderness in a hundred years will fall like this, at first it seems to be a light dream, as sorrowful, not icy or cold as there is no sound, the wind and rain are quietly lingering between heaven and earth.

"Is this the rain?" Lu Hui thought to himself, raised his eyes and looked gently, and the wind and rain drifted in the vast desert like countless veils everywhere he looked, like a painting.

I don't know how much, the rain gradually roughened, as if suddenly splashing, the sound of rain in the four fields suddenly rose, the bean-sized raindrops hit the young man's shoulders, face, and heavenly spirit cover drop by drop, the sound was different, and a trace of warmth flowed away, and the young man's body finally became cold.

"It's also a kind of rain." Lu Hui affirmed softly, his eyes that were drenched by the rain could no longer see really, and his ears listened to the wind and rain hitting the sand, and the noisy cutting of the white rain and jumping beads, like a song.

But in the end, the rain is not like rain, it is like a dream.

Lu Hui fell powerlessly on the huge sand dunes, letting the dream be gloomy and turn into rain.

……

……

When I opened my eyes again, the rain had stopped for a long time, and there was no trace of dark clouds under the clear blue sky, and two or three broken white clouds were slowly floating in the sun.

Lu Hui waved his right hand to try to drive away the clouds in the sky, "Is it true?" ”

Before he could reply to himself, an old voice suddenly came from the other side of the dune, saying, "True and false, false and true." ”

"Hmm......" Lu Hui thought that there was some truth in this, and suddenly thought of where the voice came from, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, so he turned around with the support of his hands.

On the other side of the dune, I saw an old man in thin and tattered clothes, his clean bald head reflecting the shining sunlight.

Although he was very stunned, Lu Hui restrained his dumb voice and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The old man smiled: "If you don't speak, I thought you were dead." ”

Lu Hui sighed and collapsed on the sand dunes again, and coped: "Then are you guarding the corpse here?" ”

"I'm quietly."

Answering the question, not answering, Lu Hui almost spit out a mouthful of blood in a fit of anger, thinking that the old man was really stupid when he laughed, and he didn't seem to be smart.

"What are you doing here?"

"And what are you doing here?"

The conversation ended like this, Lu Hui felt a wave of weakness and chill coming from the hundreds of bones in his limbs, and he didn't know what to ask for for a while, he didn't want to stay, and he was silent.

After a moment, the old man broke the silence and said, "Actually, you have a special ability, do you know? ”

Seeing that no one answered, the old man stood up slowly, looked curiously at this not-so-smart chosen person, and then reached out with his deadwood-like hands to comb the violent and escaping vitality in his body, and then he turned his back on Lu Hui, who had fainted, humming an ancient song and slowly walking towards Bihe Township.

……

……

It was at the moment when the dragon, which was very much like an arm, crashed through the sand unharmed, Qu Xin, who was standing not far away and watching, understood everything.

But...... Late.

After quitting that circle for thirty years, he never thought that the formation that cost countless money and treasures and seemed to be extremely lethal was not used to kill at all, but to provoke!

From the very beginning, their purpose was to destroy the Iron City!

And they succeeded.

I don't know if he was too lucky, or if they jokingly spared him his life, the legend who led the Iron City through the wind and sand for thirty years, the lord of the Iron City, was seriously injured at this time, and was hiding in the shadows of the trees to watch the lights of the rescue convoy stretch into parallel and dreamy rays on the "Iron City Lifeline".

It was pain, it was sin, it was the ghost in the night rain, it was his fault......

His throat was sweet and he vomited a mouthful of blood!

No one found him, he was an alien. But his pitiful cultivation was only enough to restrain his breath and use it to calm down the tumbling effort, so that he would not die in vain.

He wants to live, he has to live, to ask for an answer for the innocent people of the Iron City, for himself to ask for an answer - why is this?

He couldn't figure it out.

So, in the midst of that gloomy rainstorm, the fat man who was emaciated went away with remorse and sin, and no one found him...... And from then on, there was no more city lord in the Iron City.

That fat man, he was the first and the last.
