Enlightened City, early in the morning.

The sun is shining and the air is exceptionally fresh.

Tang Yun rode a small electric donkey, chewed rice balls in his mouth, walked through the streets and alleys to the criminal investigation detachment, chatted with familiar colleagues, sat in front of the computer, and started the day's work.

Since the last Nanhua Road incident, Zheng Chao has stopped arranging for her to do some dangerous work.

She is now mainly responsible for intelligence gathering and screening.

Although it was far from her original intention, Tang Yun also expressed her understanding, accepted the arrangement honestly, and worked diligently.

There is definitely boredom, but life is also fulfilling.

When people are really busy, they tend to ignore other things.

For example: time.

Suddenly, half a month passed.

It's night.

Above the vast sky, a crescent moon hung high.

On the first quarter of the moon, the night of the full moon is getting closer and closer.

Tang Yun had fallen asleep.

The moonlight was like water, shining on her face, innocent and quiet, like a child.

When she opened her eyes, she realized that she was not lying on the bed in the dormitory.

The wind howled and the rain poured down.

The lead-gray clouds overhead were pressed very low, slowly rotating like a huge umbrella cover, and from time to time there were orange-red electric lights, like a wild snake, swaying its long hideous body out of the thick clouds, roaming unscrupulously between the heavens and the earth that were instantly illuminated, and then disappearing in an instant, and everything was dark again.

Kaiming Mountain, she is back to Kaiming Mountain!

This must be a dream, Tang Yun told herself.

If you think about it during the day, you will naturally dream at night.

During this time, she always remembered the strange dream on the enlightened mountain from time to time, as if this dream was very important to her, although the dream was fragmented, but she remembered every detail clearly, deeply in her mind.

She remembered that in her dream, it was raining heavily, the wind was blowing fiercely, and there were dark clouds in the sky, covering the entire enlightened mountains.

It's just like the scene now, but with those orange-red electric lights that feel weird at first glance.

Tang Yun was deeply puzzled, and at the same time felt a little interesting, what was the mystery of this dream, so that she couldn't forget it, and now she was even more in a dream, and came to the dream with a clear consciousness.

She clenched the umbrella in her hand and walked resolutely towards the top of the mountain.

It seems that as long as you reach the top of the mountain, the mystery will be revealed, and all problems will be solved.

Thunder exploded, and scorching lightning swam out of the clouds, tearing through the dim world, and landing just a few paces away from her, as if to warn her, stop her, stop her from moving forward, warn her not to try to uncover the secrets within.

Otherwise, there will be no place to die.

Tang Yun's face turned pale, and she was certainly scared in her heart, but she knew better that her decision was right.

So, she walked faster.

As she walked, Tang Yun suddenly noticed that something was wrong.

Although she didn't have a timer such as a mobile phone or a watch, she estimated that no less than four hours had passed, but instead of getting closer to the top of the mountain, she seemed to be getting farther and farther away.

The road under your feet seems to be alive, stretching forward infinitely.

The girl swallowed and tried to go back, but she found that she couldn't.

In the dark, there seemed to be an invisible force that imprisoned her, and she couldn't even take a step.

It's okay now, I can't move forward if I don't want to.

Whirring, another gust of wind blew.

Tang Yun couldn't help but shudder, she realized that the umbrella was missing for some time, and the clothes on her body were also soaked, clinging to her skin, and the biting chill came like a tide, like a hungry ghost smelling the aroma of food, desperately drilling into her body.

It feels so real, it's so real that it's not like a dream at all!

It's as if it's all happening.

But it's a dream.

Regarding this, Tang Yun is 100,000 percent sure.

However, such a real dream is really unbelievable and incredible.

True and false, false and true.

When the fake is true, it is also false, and when it is false, it is also true.

At this moment, the true and the false have long lost a clear boundary, and it is difficult to distinguish between the two dishes.

However, Tang Yun didn't have the heart to care about these now, she felt that she was about to die of cold.

She just wanted to find a place to build a fire and keep her body warm.

Thinking like this, Tang Yun suddenly found that the road under her feet had returned to normal, she immediately jumped away, and it didn't take much effort to find a place to stay.

It was a five-zhang high cave, dry and warm, Tang Yun was overjoyed, and walked in.

But as soon as she took a step inside, she quickly turned around and ran away.

Tang Yun dared to guarantee that she had never run so fast in her life, and she jumped out like a hundred feet in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, I heard a roar that shocked the sky, the sound shook the sky, there was a huge beast, more than five zhang, nine heads, human face, tiger body, it was the legendary enlightened beast, the hooves were like thunder, the four-legged lotus gave birth to flames, the golden light burst out of the whole body, and rushed out of the hole.

The rain was steaming, the air was distorted, layered, and the flames of light became more and more violent, surging like waves.

The giant beast roared in the sky and stepped suddenly, only to shake the entire enlightened mountain, and the earth cracked, and the sound was extremely terrifying.

The girl ran and ran and ran and ran until she finally came to the edge of a cliff.

I saw that she looked frightened, her clothes were torn, and there were more than a dozen cuts on her body, spilling blood and staining her clothes red, she was pressing her knees with both hands, panting wildly, and her body was not cold, but her legs and stomach were trembling desperately.

It's not tired, it's purely scary.

The bottom of the cliff was dark and swarthy, and nothing could be seen, as if it was the bloody mouth of the desolate beast, waiting for her to throw herself into the net, and the long wind rose mightily, very violent, that was its breath.

Tang Yun gritted his teeth, was ruthless, jumped over, and jumped decisively.

Even if you fall to your death, it's better than making an enlightened beast's dinner.

The soft sound of the "wave" is like the sound of a bubble bursting.

Tang Yun looked around, and she actually returned to the top of the cliff.

Hell, I obviously fell downward, how did I instead go up? Tang Yun was surprised and delighted in her heart, and with a flash of inspiration, she finally found a way to avoid the Ming Beast.

At this time, the Enlightened Beast was only a dozen feet away from her.

The girl bit her lower lip, her eyes not instantaneous, staring closely at the Enlightened Beast's every move.

The enlightened beast lowered its head, stared, roared, and rushed forward.

The fire was rolling, the fishy wind was blowing, and the girl saw the opportunity, fell backwards, and jumped down.

The enlightened beast flew over the girl's head, clouds of smoke boiling, and golden flames surrounded.

Thundered!

Ten miles away, a mountain peak collapsed, the earth shook, the rocks pierced through the air, and in an instant, it turned into rolling magma, rushing like the sea, and the blazing and unstoppable heat completely evaporated the rain within a radius of 100 miles.

The girl stood on the edge of the cliff and watched all this, and her heart trembled with horror.

If there had been a slight mistake just now, she would have been wiped out by now.

The girl was glad that the magma suddenly exploded, and a huge figure rose into the air, running in the middle of the sky, straight towards her, not the enlightened beast!

Thunderclap!

The thick clouds in a radius of thousands of miles turned more and more urgently, and gradually became a huge whirlpool, and the orange-red electric light crisscrossed and fell, splitting on the enlightened beast, but seeing the sparks splashing, the light and flames were flying, and the black smoke rose like a dragon for hundreds of miles.

The enlightened beast was unaware of it, and still flew straight towards the girl.

The heavens and the earth shook, the stars shifted, and a thicker and brighter electric light silently fell, and it turned out to be a light purple.

Fear appeared in the Enlightened Beast's eyes, and it was frightened, but it still ran towards the girl with determination.

The girl reacted quickly and jumped off the cliff.

At this time, the enlightened beast had already reached behind the girl, lowered its head, its huge mouth opened, and there was a faint black gas between the sharp teeth bite, as if it was struggling, and let out a sharp and piercing roar and scream, which immediately dissipated without a trace.

The lightning is shining, and the fire is boiling.

A tear dripped from the corner of the enlightened beast's eye, and it looked at the girl nostalgically, dissolving into the thunder and fire in the sky.

On the edge of the cliff, the girl stood there in a daze, her heart filled with unspeakable sadness.

She knew that the Enlightened Beast was not trying to kill her, but to protect her.

The palm of her hand was suddenly hot, the girl let go of her hand, and saw a transparent bead parked on the palm of her hand, she knew that this was specially left for her by the enlightened beast, she put the bead into her jacket pocket, and her whole body was immediately warm and comfortable, as if returning to her mother's arms.

The girl wiped a handful of rain from her face, put away her sadness, and returned to the cave.

Time flies, like a white horse, a day, a month, a year......

The girl didn't know, and she didn't dare to think about it.

There seems to be no hunger, no sleepiness, no day and night, only endless storms and rains, like the banks of the heavenly river bursting, only low and dim lead-gray clouds, oppressing the earth, only unbridled thunder and lightning, as if the end of the world.

Darkness, loneliness, loneliness.

In such an environment, people tend to become vulnerable, breeding all kinds of negative emotions.

They are beasts of prey, tormenting and bewitching you all the time, no matter how strong a person's will is, it will be difficult to resist their erosion, and it is only a matter of time before they break through the hard shell that is heavily wrapped.

They are pervasive, and as long as they show the slightest gap, they will swarm in.

The girl curled up on the ground, trembling, the fear and despair in her heart gnawing her like a poisonous snake, her red eyes full of crazy destruction, and finally, the girl could not help it, and rushed out of the cave screaming.

I don't know how many times I fell, until I couldn't get up again.

She lay in the mud with a hideous expression, and the cold rain hit her face, washing away the blood and mud, but it could not wash away the nightmare in her heart.

However, she still did not give up.

No matter how long the darkness is, sooner or later the light will always come.

No matter how long the night is, there will always be a time of dawn.

As long as you don't give up, there will be hope.

And hope is like a candle swaying in the wind, as if it will be extinguished at any moment.

But it still burns, and it never goes out.

The only one who can really defeat a person is himself.

This is the most valuable quality that a girl learns from her father.
