Chapter 417: A Fatal Disaster
It's a huge difficulty, there is no end, it's really desperate! When his hand slammed into the grass at the top of the cliff, the dragon almost fell to the bottom of the cliff. In difficult moments, people stiffen their nerves to give themselves strong strength to persevere to the end, and once they touch success, all their strength will be instantly emptied. As soon as the dragon reached the top of the cliff, he fell down before he could stand up, and his body was paralyzed like a cloud, floating in vain.
I couldn't sleep again, and the muscles of my hands and feet were beating violently. The dragon got up and stumbled towards the snow-capped peak.
After passing the Yaochi Pond and walking up the winding road for half a day, Long Er thought that he would reach the Tianque Palace in no more than three miles, based on the fact that he found a cypress tree with an axe mark on the side of the path. This axe mark was originally in order to chop wood for Xiang Feng'er, and it was only after cutting the first axe that I remembered Xiang Feng'er's instructions, "It is not allowed to cut trees above the snow line." At that time, I regretted it, and I was always worried that I would be angry when I saw it by Xiangfeng'er. Now, I'm glad I was reckless.
With this axe mark, Long Er could definitely judge that Tianque Palace was not far away.
In an instant, his whole body relaxed. At the beginning, the road up the mountain was still there, and all kinds of scenery were still there, which proved that Tianque Palace must still be there. I don't know if it's a lie or a rumor, but I'm going to be able to find it! Or except for my Long'er, no one else can see Tianque Palace at all, and I don't know.
Long Er thought about it, so he walked to the end of the mountain road, and climbed this dirt slope to see Tianque Palace. In the past, when he and Xiang Feng'er first met, they stopped here and saw that the peak opposite was illusory in the clouds. At this moment, he turned around, and the scene was still there. Long Er was confident that as long as he climbed this steep slope, a magnificent Tianque Palace would appear in front of him. This scene had appeared countless times in his dreams. Countless dreams of this beautiful place, countless dreams of meeting Xiangfeng'er, countless times, and a burst of loss after waking up.
The steep slope in front of you can be called a small cliff at all, because the frozen snow is covered layer by layer, and countless ice cubes are hung, and the slope completely exceeds 90 degrees. It can be seen that few people really climb to the top of Mount Tai. The dragon dug shallow pits on the steep slope and threw out a cowhide rope with four bronze grips on the head of the rope, and as long as he hooked something on the top of the mountain, he could climb up the rope. It took many times before Long Er dared to be sure that he could try it. Be careful, if you are not careful, once you fall, you will be crushed to pieces and smashed into minced meat when you roll down the mountain. It's more than 1,000 meters high.
The dragon climbed up, and a bone-piercing cold froze so that the dragon's teeth rattled. His heart froze, because the Tianque Palace was gone, and there was nothing in front of him except the empty snow.
Long Er couldn't believe that this was the case in front of him. He staggered to the edge of the cliff at the end of the snow. All at once, the world opened up. Mountains, land, and rivers are all insignificant like models on a sand table, all sunk under the mountains and trampled underfoot.
Long Er looked up at the blue sky and roared in despair: "Xiangfeng'er, where are you?"
As soon as it was dark, the dragon leaned forward, fell, and flew up and fell off the cliff.
At this moment, a terrible catastrophe is slowly struck. People have not yet woken up from the euphoria of getting food when they fall into another kind of euphoria—insomnia. People are used to being busy all night long, but when they are done planting and they should have rested, they can't sleep anymore.
People are very tired, very sleepy, but they just can't sleep. Even if you lie in bed all day and all night, you still can't enter the dream. If you can't sleep, you still lie dry, and your brain will buzz. Who have you quarreled with, who have you been played with, and all kinds of embarrassing stupid things come to the bottom of your heart and are tossed in your mind. Even childhood memories have been turned over and recalled. People suffer from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder due to insomnia.
Insomnia, like a terrible plague, swept everyone in mercilessly. People couldn't sleep all night long. Extreme fatigue really tosses people to death. If you don't sleep well, your mood will become extremely bad. Impatience and irritability strain people's nerves to the extreme. Because a little trivial thing will cause friction, and it will be like thunder and make a big move. Fighting, robbery, theft, murder and arson, all evils in the world immediately emerge everywhere like sprouting weeds. What's even more terrifying is that the blood ghosts also come out of the ground, often running rampant in the dark night, and doing all kinds of bad things. The people of the world live in terror.
In the evening, in a bedroom full of flowers and plants, a man covered in bandages lay on the bed. An old man is holding a very thin copper needle aimed at his person.
Liu Ji beside the bed had a sad face, and kept sighing. Emperor Taishang, who was sitting on the side, had a pale face, his eyelids drooped blankly, his stunned eyes stared at the void in front of him, and his thoughts fell into the bottomless abyss.
The little shadow cried and cried, and told the whole story while crying. It turned out to be a dragon lying on the bed. He was found by hunters at the southeastern foot of Mount Tai. Since most of Mount Tai was covered with ice and snow, after the dragon fell off the cliff, he stumbled and was wrapped in thick snow and wrapped into a snowball. The hunters who were hunting thought that some beast had jumped down from the mountain, and fired crossbow arrows at it one by one, turning it into a large hedgehog.
When this "big hedgehog" did not move, everyone gathered around and looked at it before they broke out in a cold sweat, it turned out to be a person wrapped in ice and snow!
Pulling out the crossbow bolts and peeling off the snow, it was found that the man's injuries were fine. It's just that he was broken in many places because he tumbled down from the high mountain and was hit by a solid rock, and his breath was still there, but it was very weak. They carried him back to Miyagi and took him to the hospital. Soldiers on patrol escalated the incident to confirm the person's identity. By the time he was recognized as Long'er, he had been lying silent in the hospital for seven days.
After Emperor Taishang heard this, his face was still dead and gray, and he calmly did not twitch at all. Liu Ji sighed again and again. Restlessly pacing back and forth.
"Well, he's awake. The old man at the bedside slowly twisted the needle, and finally took the needle off. Long Er slowly opened his eyes. Everyone hurriedly gathered around. The old man sighed and put away the slender needles.
"This man's medical skills are really brilliant. Emperor Taishang just said this sentence in his heart, and just wanted to ask something, as soon as the old man looked up, his haggard face and dark circles under his eyes had already given him the answer, and Emperor Taishang stopped asking and went to see the old man in person.
The old man instructed Emperor Taishang to let Long'er pay more attention to rest, and the decoction was taken on time, and he could be cured in less than two months. Emperor Taishang just sighed. Emperor Taishang changed his words and asked, "According to Mr., what kind of disease is this plague? ”
The old man rubbed his dry eyes, sighed and said, "The old man has been practicing medicine for many years, and he has never seen such a rampant strange disease. Those who often have difficulty falling asleep are basically caused by unhappy mood, frequent thinking, or insufficient endowment due to old age. Moreover, this condition is only a rare case. Like now, the whole people suffer from insomnia, and there is no cure, not only the old man has never encountered it, but even the "Divine Pesticide Yellow Calendar" has not found a record of similar diseases. ”
