Spring thunder rolls and pours from the dome. Between the heaven, earth, mountains and sea, there is a faint trace of a dragon.
After the thunder gradually subsided, it was already afternoon. At this time, the drizzle began to spread again. The few wild birds that had been hiding in the ruined temple finally couldn't bear it anymore. They fluttered their wings and left the place to look for food in the rain. .
About this time, as a black crow soared into the sky, Zhang Xing gradually became conscious. But he just had consciousness. He felt as if five kilograms of flour and three kilograms of water had been stuffed into his brain, which was mushy with a bang, and his eyes seemed to be a little sore.
His eyelids were heavy and his thinking was hazy, but Zhang Xing still tried to recall some of the reasons by instinct - the reason why he was like this was that he seemed to have been deceived by fake Taoist priests at tourist attractions.
But why did someone who was deceived by a fake Taoist priest end up in this situation? This is unreasonable. Could it be that he was drugged?
Reflection came spontaneously almost instantly. It seems that I am an old reflective person.
Come to think of it, I was deceived by a fake Taoist priest in front of a tourist attraction and bought a compass that was said to have the same functions as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean. However, this compass, which was said to be a limited edition of Pirates of the Caribbean, had the words "Tian Xingjian" engraved on it. A gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement; the terrain is good, and a gentleman is carrying things with kindness... Just when he was studying this so-called Laojun's magic weapon that cost him fifteen yuan and was said to be able to point to the place he desired, he suddenly fell into a trance and directly appeared in front of him. In a scenic spot with many people coming and going, I fell into a well in broad daylight.
No wonder I feel like my head is banging, it turns out it's really water.
Fake Taoist priests who kill a thousand swords, outrageous tourist souvenirs, fake scenic spots without protective fences, I must report it to the Ethnic and Religious Affairs Committee and expose it online. I am a big V on Huhu, and was given 50,000 followers by the platform...
However, he couldn't tolerate the messy thoughts in his mind, and suddenly there was an obvious and even painful slapping sensation on his face.
Zhang Xing tried his best to open his eyes and saw a vague figure looking down at him. Then he quickly tried to speak, but found that his voice was hoarse and his throat was dry and sore:
"D-doctor...there's nothing seriously wrong with me, right?!"
"There's something seriously wrong with you!" the figure above him blurted out, his voice rough and rough, as if he had no medical ethics and seemed to have a bit of bad breath. "What kind of doctor is this? How can a doctor come from a ruined temple in the wilderness? Boy Zhang, I advise you to stand up for yourself quickly, otherwise when the Dongyi bastard catches up, I am not related to you, and there is no reason to go behind your back. !”
Zhang Xing's mind was in a mess, and his throat was dry and itchy. He could only try his best to open his eyes, but he vaguely saw a huge human head facing him. This person was tall, with a slightly red complexion, and a circle of He had a beard and a bun hanging crookedly, his eyes were wide open, and he had a bloody mouth with saliva splattering everywhere. It was really terrifying.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Xing was obviously startled, but his first reaction after swallowing his saliva was also bizarre: "Whoever you are, why don't you wear a mask?"
The bearded man was furious and pulled Zhang Xing up from the ground: "What mask? Who is it? Boy Zhang, if you keep pretending to be stupid, I will..."
The shouting and cursing stopped suddenly, because both the emotional bearded man and Zhang Xing, who was shaken and confused, noticed that the ground under his feet suddenly trembled almost at the same time.
"What is this, an earthquake?" Poor Zhang Xing was still a little dizzy and couldn't figure out what was going on.
"It doesn't matter if it's an earthquake or some other gods and monsters, we can't survive in this ruined temple anyway." The man with a beard put down his hand with some surprise, panting heavily and turned around to tidy up.
Zhang Xing, who was left behind, had already noticed something was wrong, so he struggled to look up, only to see that the bearded man had just kicked a pile of fire, causing a burst of smoke and the sound of water and fire pouring on him. Then he casually threw a dirty ancient helmet towards him that looked like a prop from a TV series.
When I got the helmet, some white viscous liquid flowed out.
At the same time, there were seventeen or eight exhausted soldiers in the temple. At this time, they all stood up in panic, either supporting each other or struggling to walk alone, desperate to escape outside.
Zhang Xing himself, who was the first to call out the earthquake, did not panic at all because his mind was confused. He knocked on his helmet in a daze, only to find that the helmet, which seemed to have been used as a pot before, was much harder and heavier than Imagine, and only then did he discover that he was wearing ancient armor similar to others... Among them, the arms of the armor were missing, but the torso clearly showed the characteristics of chain mail, and there were also Two pieces of polished armor stained with a lot of dirt.
That's Mingguang Armor, Sui and Tang Dynasties?
Is it the Sui and Tang Dynasties?
Could it be that I have traveled to some chaotic point in the Sui and Tang Dynasties? And whether it was the three conquests of Goryeo, the fall of the Sui Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, or the Anshi Rebellion, it seems that it is not a good environment for being a soldier, right?
Zhang Xing, who was lying there and leaning forward, seemed to have caught something, and then looked around to get more information, but he quickly failed because soon, another obvious vibration was felt.
"Hurry up! If you can't walk, crawl! If you can't even crawl, I won't care about you!" Beard put on his helmet, picked up a short-handled long knife and put it on his shoulder, then turned around without touching anything else. He walked towards the dilapidated gate of this building, muttering to himself as he walked. "After the defeat in Luolongtan, I realized one truth, that is, we must not give away our good life indiscriminately! Not to mention the whole family at home, just talk about the rules of us Hongshan people, we must A fallen leaf returns to its roots, and even if it dies, it must be scattered at home!”
Zhang Xing no longer cares about the hallucination caused by acting or general anesthesia for surgery, because his brain is too heavy to do such detailed logical thinking.
Therefore, it is difficult to tell whether he was following the other party's instructions or out of survival and exploration instincts, so he put on the helmet he had just used to cook porridge, and then tried to stand up on the statue stand.
But as soon as he got up, Zhang Xing realized that his legs were so weak that he could only hold on with all his strength and was trembling uncontrollably.
And at this time, something even weirder happened. He clearly felt a strange, cold, air-like existence gushing out from his chest and abdomen, and then poured into his legs along some kind of pipe. In the past, it was as if his body was instinctively trying to help him stand up in this way... But it was this cold air that in turn strongly stimulated his legs and brain because of the coldness, causing him to fall down again with a plop.
"My mother!"
The rest of the people had already run away, and Bearded Man also walked out, but ran back alone. Seeing this scene, he became more and more angry. "The captain has long said that you should give up the method of the Northern Wilderness barbarian from your hometown and take the three radiances and four royalties given by the army. You just don't want to let go of the ice energy that you have cultivated, but you don't listen. Now What's going on, can't you walk? Your cultivation talent has been wasted. If it were given to me, I would have become the team leader..."
Zhang Xing couldn’t understand it anymore.
He had just tried to travel through ancient China, and it was probably related to bizarre events such as the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but what is going on now? Martial arts version of Sui and Tang Dynasties? Or the Sui and Tang Dynasty version of the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties? In this case, should we defect to Li Yuanba in advance?
However, this time there was really no time to think too much.
Another obvious vibration came, as if the whole world was about to flip over, and ashes began to fall from the ruined temple.
The bearded man stomped his feet at the temple door, then came back directly, holding a long knife in one hand, and with the other hand he turned Zhang Xing, who was holding on to the wooden sculpture, over, and then put it on his shoulder: "I owe you all my life! "
Zhang Xing was held on his shoulders, his head turned downwards, his eyes caught a glimpse of something on the ground where he was originally lying, but his heart was excited, and he quickly shouted: "What is that? Dudu, brother Dudu, right? Let me put it Bring the thing with you! That’s my family heirloom!”
The bearded man, who was also said to be blinded, although impatient, still bent down slightly and let Zhang Xing reach out from behind his shoulder and pinch something on the ground tightly in his hand. After the latter said "Okay", he He hurried out the door.
Not to mention being carried by a bearded man trying to escape, Zhang Xing was already shaking with excitement while holding the object - the reason couldn't be simpler, that object turned out to be the compass he bought before falling into the well.
The compass has a decent manufacturing process, simple shape, and beautiful appearance. It is about half the size of a palm and easy to carry, but it only costs fifteen yuan. It also has two lines of simplified Chinese characters engraved on the left and right, which deeply reflects the breadth and depth of Made in China.
But at this moment, especially when the cold air that he felt had just passed through his legs in an orderly manner, Zhang Xing still didn't know that this thing was definitely going to kill him.
He is the main culprit for falling into this situation!
It was also the straw that saved his life at this time!
According to some high-end Internet articles, it can be called his golden finger for time travel... No, it's the Golden Compass!
However, what made Zhang Xing collapse was that the copper-plated compass was in his hand, but the pointer was just hanging down, without any movement... Could this thing be disposable? Or does it need to be recharged?
I'm in the wild mountains, my brain is wet, my legs are cold, and I'm experiencing an earthquake. Where can I get a power bank? And how to charge it? Are you really angry?
As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Xing ignored the feeling of relief from the electrotherapy just now and immediately tried to activate the so-called true energy. However, this true energy really moved freely as if it were a part of his own body, easily filling up his arms and into the hand holding the compass. .
But alas, it was of no use.
In frustration, Du Meng had already carried Zhang Xing to the temple gate, but at this time he encountered a third strong shock. Du Meng staggered when he stepped out and almost threw the person on his shoulders away.
It was at this moment that Zhang Xing suddenly remembered the most frequently used spell in China, but it seemed absolutely reasonable, and then blurted out:
"The Supreme Lord is as urgent as the law!"
This shout happened to hit a bump, almost shaking the acid water out of Zhang Xing's stomach, but it was still a pity that the compass needle still only swung with inertia and gravity.
Zhang Xing was almost desperate.
But at the next moment, as Du Meng stood up again and walked out of the temple door, the pointer of the compass in Zhang Xing's hand suddenly bounced up against the law of gravity and pointed directly behind Du Meng and in front of Zhang Xing.
Zhang Xing was stunned for a moment, and his brain immediately started to work at an extremely fast speed, and he began to reason and apply this 'golden compass', and he soon understood what was going on.
"Go back!" Zhang Xing, who was about to burst out of bile and whose throat hurt, shouted over his shoulder. "Go back to the temple!"
"What are you talking about?" Du Meng kept scolding him while lowering his head and continuing to move forward among the dead branches and leaves in front of the temple. "If there is a big earthquake, wouldn't you be courting death by hiding in a temple? It's not right to stay on the hillside! You have to go to the open space on the road at the bottom of the mountain! Otherwise, why do you think everyone else is running away?! Follow me If you yell again, I will throw you here and find your own way!"
"Go back quickly!" Zhang Xing was so anxious that he could only yell and coax. "This is the guidance of my family heirloom! Seek good luck and avoid evil, and show the way! So many brothers are dead, and only the two of us escaped here. Do you think we are lucky? Listen to me again, anyway, the two of us Now we are living and dying together, why should I lie to you?"
Hearing this, Du Meng suddenly stopped in the dry forest. He hesitated for a moment and allowed the other fleeing people in front of him to go further and further away. After a moment, as the ground shook again, he lowered his head and roared in the forest as if venting his anger. , but still turned around, carried the person on his back and ran back.
The earthquakes became more frequent and larger, and the ground was slippery due to the pounding rain. They all ran with all their strength and fell several times. But when they reached the door, the ground beneath their feet suddenly rose straight up. , and by the way, a crack that became larger and larger visible to the naked eye was formed, forcing Dumeng to jump forward with all his strength, and rolled into the temple door, falling to pieces.
That's not all, the biggest movement finally came. For a moment, the earth rumbled, the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked. The wailing and crying outside the temple also exploded with the rumble. The two people who entered the ruined temple didn't care about the movement outside the temple. Just scurrying to grab whatever is around me.
Of course, it's useless, and it's not needed.
Because I don’t know whether it was unexpected or expected, a huge crack opened not far from the temple door, but the temple only swayed, not turned upside down, and never collapsed.
After an unknown amount of time, the movement stopped.
Zhang Xing's whole body ached and he was helpless. He glanced around in a daze... the wood carving with half his head missing, the dusty desk, the big hole in the roof, the beams that had been smoked by the fire, and more. The already dilapidated bird's nest above... was not spared. Finally, of course, he looked at the bearded man opposite him, only to find that he was looking at the compass in his hand. He didn't know how to explain it, so he could only think about the current situation secretly.
But soon, Zhang Xing, who had just been thinking about "The Rebirth of the Martial Arts Edition of the Sui and Tang Dynasties and the Relationship between the Compass, Earthquakes and Beards", realized something again, and then he and the people opposite him looked outside the temple gate, and were stunned. stand up.
It turns out that outside the temple gate, at the end of the field of vision, some kind of cylindrical object with a light yellow metallic luster is sliding continuously in the cracks of the cracked mountains. And if you look carefully, the cylinder seems to be showing layers of layers while sliding. The stacked state is like scales.
Soon, as the object slid faster and faster, farther and higher, Zhang Xing suddenly realized that this was not like scale armor, but real scale armor.
As for the owner of the scale armor, he suddenly had a giant snake-like body that was of unknown length and was gradually moving and stretching.
But it wasn't over yet. As the body slid, a giant talon of a bird with scales suddenly stretched out in the air, followed by two, three, four... After four huge eagle claws came out, Among the huge snake bodies in the distance, the top of a huge branch-shaped head like antlers is gradually revealed.
Seeing this scene, even though the time traveler Zhang Xing had lost his ability to think carefully and basic actions, he still instinctively thought of one word - dragon.
There was a dragon hiding in the valley and under the ground, and it suddenly came out, causing this natural disaster.
And just a moment later, Zhang Xing was a little confused again, because after the head buried in the huge snake body was lifted up to reveal the whole picture, although the huge rocks and mounds of earth kept falling, you could still see that it was impressive. A face as huge as a palace but more like a tiger.
The tail was raised, and it turned out to be a feathery bird tail with three forks at the end.
It has a tiger's head, antlers, a snake's body, an eagle's claws, and a bird's tail. It has a huge body. Although it has not yet unfolded its body, it is as big as a mountain... Even if it is a dragon, it is an unconventional dragon.
Of course, if it's not a dragon, then what is it?
There was no time for Zhang Xing to review the knowledge about biology and mythology that he had not touched in many years.
The next moment, the tiger's face opened its eyes, and the antlers of the deer were raised to the sky. With just one roar, it caused thunder to shoot out; the snake's body stretched and swayed, the eagle's claws stretched out in all directions, and the bird's tail waved up and down, causing wind and clouds to rise... Immediately, this The undeniably powerful dragon beast fully stretched its body in mid-air, and then suddenly rose into the air, shooting like an arrow into the extremely dense clouds in the sky.
An even more terrifying thing happened. Such a mythical beast flying into the sky, splitting the ground and forming clouds, actually seemed to be fighting something on the clouds, and they were evenly matched!
In a moment, hailstones as big as a washbasin fell down one after another, flints rolled up rainwater, and smoke filled the air, shooting rapidly to the surrounding area. It was unknown how far they flew and where they landed.
In the ruined temple, the time traveler Zhang Xing was already dumbfounded, and for a moment he only had one thought in his mind:
Bullshit Sui and Tang Dynasties!
PS: When releasing a new book, follow the old rules and follow the routine slowly. I will write slowly and you will read slowly.
