In the Jiuli Mountains, in the endless night, the bonfires are like stars falling to the ground, making people feel the loneliness of nothingness.

Chiyou sat in his royal tent and propped his head with his hands.

Unlike the Red Zone Terrans who wore their hair tied and wore crowns, Chi You's long hair was scattered casually, covering his somewhat morbid fair face.

Suddenly, his pupils contracted and he disappeared in place.

A cloud of black smoke slowly rose from the ground, undisguised.

A short blade reflected the cold glow of the moon, and was already leaning against the ribs of the black mist humanoid.

Chi You's cold voice sounded: "I said that immortal cultivators are not allowed to set foot in Jiuli Mountain. ”

The black mist gradually condensed into a human form, and the whole body was shrouded in black robes, and the only face that showed the black robe was hidden under a strange spiral-shaped mask.

"Lord Chiyou, please don't be nervous, I'm not an immortal cultivator. He said calmly.

Chi You fanned his nose slightly, and said lightly: "It's true that there is no smell of those immortals, but I still don't plan to let you go." ”

As he spoke, he swung his knife and stabbed the black-robed man's heart.

Erasing out all unknown risk factors is one of Chiyou's principles of life.

However, the black-robed man didn't seem to have any physical body, and Chi You's blade cut through it, and it actually penetrated his body directly, without causing the slightest damage.

"What the hell are you?" Chi You's eyes became more and more cautious.

"If I say that I am your will, and I am the will that arises when I feel the unkindness of the immortals and the injustice of the heavens, will you believe it?" asked the black-robed man respectfully.

"What do you think?" Chiyou sneered.

"Huh...... Sure enough, you are a wise monarch. ”

The black-robed man smiled, obviously not thinking that his clumsy remarks would win the other party's trust, "Think of me as a collaborator, you hate the collaborators of this world!"

"Cooperation?"

Chi You's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't move: "You are wrong, I don't hate this world, although it doesn't treat me gently, but it is equal to all beings, I don't hate it." ”

"Well, anyway, we all hate those high-ranking immortals and saints, so we have a basis for cooperation. ”

"So, tell me first, what can you bring me?" Chi You playfully played with his saber.

Although he was a little curious about the guy in front of him who was obviously not a human, nor an immortal, nor a demon, he didn't think that he had anything that could impress him.

"The great King Chiyou, a little greeting is not a tribute. ”

As he spoke, the black-robed man took out two coffins from the soil.

"The corpse of an immortal? That's a rare thing!"

Chi You was a little interested, the corpse that could be taken out by the other party so solemnly obviously couldn't be as simple as a mortal corpse.

The black-robed man seemed to twitch the corner of his eyes, and said embarrassedly: "Immortals, especially natural immortals, are the darlings of the Heavenly Dao, and if they are killed rashly, they are easy to be contaminated with great cause and effect." ”

This sentence is not wrong, every ascendant is very important to Zhang Zifan, if someone wantonly slaughters the ascendant, Zhang Zifan, as the way of heaven, will of course intervene.

"However, although it is not the corpse of an immortal, it is also a rare good thing!"

As he spoke, the black-robed man opened the coffin, revealing two corpses, one black and one white.

"This is!" Chiyou had never seen anything so ugly, and couldn't help but be taken aback, "Is this also human?"

"Yes or no. ”

The black-robed man smiled mysteriously and said, "This is a puppet created by an ancient goddess, named Black Jue and Bai Jue......

......

In the headquarters of the human race, the Shennong clan has been in charge of Dabao for more than 20 years.

Since the sun and moon are reincarnated in a hundred years in the world of the small courtyard, many plants that can use the moonlight to grow have evolved.

Shennong, on the other hand, created the art of night rice cultivation through the selection and improvement of these plant varieties.

Although the yield of this night rice is very low, it is also an effective supplement to the Terran ration.

Therefore, the name of Shennong is growing in prestige.

As a matter of course, the identity of the co-owner of the Shennong human race was finally recognized by the princes from all walks of life.

Since then, Shennong has been named Emperor Yan, and this year is also known as the first year of the Yan calendar.

Speaking of which, this is the first time that the Terrans have had an official chronology.

Previously, there was no perfect calendar for the entire flood famine, which was used to record the changes of the years, months, spring and autumn.

This is not to say that Hongjun Ancestor and the immortals did not think of a way to record time with a calendar.

It's because, on the one hand, they are all immortal, and time doesn't mean much to them.

For example, when Hongjun survived the Tribulation of the Eternal Night, he only needed to know the approximate time, 10,000 years, 30,000 years, 100,000 years, and so on.

When it comes to a specific year, or even a certain day of a certain month, it is completely unnecessary.

On the other hand, it is because the changes of the sun and moon in this world have always been inaccurate, and it is inconvenient to formulate a calendar.

In ancient times, there were days and nights in this world that counted 100,000 years, and there were also days and nights counted for 5,000 years or hundreds of years.

But after the advent of the Terrans, the world was basically stable.

That's one day and night, exactly one hundred years.

Since it has not experienced antiquity, in the worldview of the human race, the alternation of day and night is like this, and there is nothing special.

Fuxi evolved the Bagua, brought mathematical knowledge to mankind, and laid the foundation for the creation of the calendar.

After Shennong succeeded to the throne, he attached great importance to agricultural production, and agricultural production naturally could not avoid the link of the calendar.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the first calendar of the flood famine, the "Yan Calendar", was born in this era.

In the first, second, and third years of the Yan calendar, all the wind and rain were smooth, and all things grew slowly but orderly under the nourishment of the Taiyin Star.

But at the end of the fourth year of Yanli, things changed.

In addition to the moon that originally hung high in the sky, there were nine more scorching bright moons rising from the northeast.

At first, the farmers were ecstatic.

In October, more light sources allow these plants, which are already highly efficient to use light energy, to grow rapidly.

Even Shennong himself felt that this might be a gift from the ancient gods to the human race.

However, immediately afterward, something terrible happened.

Fireflies: carnivorous, staple food snails, slugs, earthworms and other mollusks, after obtaining prey, use the upper jaw to inject secretion into the prey, in vitro digestion, and then inhale into the body. Usually a snail will have many fireflies to share.

As a terrifying carnivorous beast, when the fireflies set their eyes on the desolate beings, it was a catastrophe.
