On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, an auspicious day, sorghum was lifted.
Put on the red dress, hate every inch, cut it in a hurry...
In ancient times, most people were ignorant. Whenever they encountered severe floods or droughts, they would want to ask the Dragon King to show mercy and give them a way to survive.
When asking for help, you need to give gifts, so there is a bad habit of giving a bride to the Dragon King.
"The auspicious time has come, let's send the bride to the Dragon Palace!" The witch in strange clothes shouted at the edge of the river, holding her voice.
The bluestone road leading directly to the pier was swept clean, and there were flower baskets and red cloth on both sides. A farewell band was playing and playing on both sides, making it very lively.
Eight big men appeared carrying a wedding sedan. The outside of the wedding sedan looked festive, but inside it was a cage made of bamboo strips.
A beautiful girl was locked up in it, wearing a wedding dress and tied up with red cloth strips. A large piece of pumpkin candy was stuffed in her mouth, as if she wanted her to say something nice when she saw the Dragon King.
of.
The girl cried silently in the sedan chair without struggling. After being selected, this was her fate, and the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait would not let her escape.
The crowds on the bank of the river knelt down after seeing the wedding sedan, and shouted loudly with smiles: "Congratulations on sending the bride into the Dragon Palace, and pray to the Dragon King to bless us with good weather this year and no floods or droughts!"
As the sedan floated into the Nanjiang River by boat, the leaking boat gradually sank in the middle of the river, and there was another wedding sedan next to the ancient underwater tomb in the Nanjiang River.
…
"Buzz buzz..."
Zhou Li was still reading folk ghost stories when his phone suddenly began to vibrate crazily, startling him.
In shock, I picked up my phone and cursed secretly: "Who is checking the screen so late? Isn't it unethical? Others don't sleep? I'm scared."
After unlocking it, the circle of friends is jumping and refreshing like crazy:
Look at the moon, look at the moon. It’s such a strange moon. It comes only once in the ages. Don’t miss it.
"What's so good about the moon? Could it have exploded?" Although he was thinking this, he couldn't stop himself from frantically scrolling through his WeChat Moments. Out of curiosity, Zhou Li opened the curtains and looked up at the sky.
He saw the strangest moon he had ever seen in his two lifetimes.
The blood-colored full moon hung high in the sky, fully twice the size of a normal moon. The scarlet light shone in all directions, coating the entire world with a layer of blood.
It's weird and terrifying, but it's also full of fatal attraction. People can't help but want to reach out and touch it and take it as their own.
A blood-red progress bar appeared in the depths of Zhou Li's mind and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The current loading progress is 89%….
At this time, a piece of news refuting the rumors came from the mobile phone screen, and the constant vibration brought Zhou Li's eyes back.
After a casual glance, most of these rumor-refuting news said:
According to a certain expert's personal statement, the blood moon phenomenon is caused by the pollution of the atmosphere and the refraction of light. Everyone should protect the environment and reduce pollution. blah blah blah...
Seeing these rumor-refuting news, Zhou Li curled his lips to show his disdain for the Zhuan family, and then closed the curtains: "Sleep, sleep, there is a tall person to support you when the sky falls, so sleep is important."
If you can't even solve advanced math problems and still want to understand mysterious astronomical phenomena, isn't that just asking for trouble?
Loading progress 97%….
While Zhou Li was sleeping soundly, the bathroom in the house began to look strange under the influence of the blood moon.
The corners of the wall next to the tiles began to grow moldy, and the mold gradually extended to the ceiling.
There were cracks in the mirror, yellow-brown mud emerged from the sink, and some weeds grew in the gaps between the tiles on the floor.
At the same time, the glass door of the bathroom creaked open. In the darkness, Zhou Li's image slowly emerged in the cracked mirror.
It looked pale in the mirror, imitating Zhou Li's behavior in the morning, stiffly bending over to wash his face, then turned and walked towards the bathroom door.
"Bang, bang, bang..." Although the door was open, it couldn't get out. Every time it walked towards the door, it would inevitably hit the wall.
After a while, all the weird scenes disappeared and everything returned to normal.
Zhou Li suddenly reappeared in the mirror, his pale face pressed tightly against the mirror, and his pupils filled with blood and tears stared blankly at the door, looking particularly eerie and terrifying.
It waited silently in the darkness until Zhou Li opened the door next time.
At noon, the heat wave hit, and the autumn cicada remained silent under the intimidation of the autumn tiger.
Zhou Li, who had no classes, slept until twelve o'clock at noon before waking up. Feeling the stuffy heat in the room, he finally decided to go to the mall to use the air conditioner for a while. As for the air conditioner in the house, why pay for it when it is free?
Putting on casual clothes, when I walked to the door, a mechanical voice sounded in my mind: "Loading progress is 100%, system binding is successful."
Zhou Li suddenly froze on the spot. To be honest, he didn't really want the system. The system represented opportunities but also dangers.
After traveling through time, he relied on the memories of his previous life to make money, and the bank notes were enough to last him two hundred years.
Although I don’t really want it, the development of things is not dependent on human will. The system still appeared when it was supposed to appear.
But it’s better than nothing. At least you have an extra layer of protection in case of emergencies.
Stupid college students can't solve advanced math problems, but they have one advantage in common: optimism.
Zhou Li asked curiously: "System, what functions do you have?"
System: "Ding, the system can allow the host to travel through all the worlds every seven days, and can also ensure that the host's consciousness is not harmed by the outside world."
"It's gone? It's gone? There's no extra points, no lottery?" Zhou Li couldn't believe it. This system is so useless, it sounds like a trial version with incomplete functions.
system:"……"
Zhou Li asked again: "Can you choose the world you travel to? How many days can you stay in the mission world? Will the time of this world be suspended after going to the mission world? Who is your creator?"
There are many questions, and I don’t know how many the system can answer.
But no matter how many answers it gives, you can see from the side the level of its authority.
System: "Ding, you can only choose after capturing multiple world lines. You can stay in the mission world indefinitely, with a minimum of seven days. After going to the mission world, this world will be in a static state."
Unsurprisingly, the system did not answer the last question, and Zhou Li did not continue to ask.
Instead, I took out my mobile phone and started buying stab-proof clothing, mountain boots, electric baton, swing stick... No matter what, it was important to save my life.
After placing an urgent order and giving a red envelope of 500 yuan, the seller immediately said that the product would be delivered to your door within three hours at most.
Zhou Li, who was still thinking about what world he would go to for the first time, was suddenly startled and touched the cold sweat on his back.
Looking up, it seems that I can see yesterday's blood moon through the thick roof.
He murmured to himself like he was hindsight: "If the blood moon is not an astronomical phenomenon, then yesterday's big moon..."
