Storm of Kings

Chapter 7 What year is this eve?

Zhou Lie hurried back to his residence, he cared more about his mobile phone than the belt.

Entering the cave, he breathed a sigh of relief, Xu Shaoyou has not brought anyone over yet.He fumbled out the phone along the wooden bed, and after thinking about it, he fetched out a bag of silver coins.

The money is the belongings he has saved over the past two years. If he is touched by those dogs, he will cry to death.

After getting the mobile phone and silver coins, Zhou Lie thought about moving home for a few days. If someone bullies his mother and sister, he must interrupt a few doglegs.

In fact, there are village rules in the village. Fighting between children has nothing to do with others, but you should also prevent the dog from jumping over the wall in a hurry. Who knows what Xu Shaoyou can do. This kid seems a little special in the village.

Just when Zhou Lie was about to leave the stone cave, what he never expected was that the phone in his hand suddenly heard a ringing tone, and Cao Ge actually took the initiative to look for him at this time.

After answering the phone, I only heard the other party say: "Hello, Zhou Lie? I made a few calls before and I couldn't get through. There was a major incident in the United States last night. I heard that several asteroids entered the atmosphere and the military temporarily launched missiles. After the interception, California lost contact with the outside world. Uncle Dong's son and grandson are both in California. This morning, I accompanied the old man to change some US dollars. When he left, he put the two Bagua Palm manuscripts in my place, you Come and pick it up when you have time."

Cao Hongbin continued: "This must be the old man's many years of hard work. I can see that he likes you quite a lot. You have to cherish the predecessor's heart."

"Something happened to Uncle Dong's house? America, asteroid?"

Zhou Lie said to himself, suddenly staring at the phone, hesitatingly asked: "Brother Cao, let me ask you something, what year is this year?"

"Which year? Haha, it's not a white fog year anyway, you bear kid will start to entertain people again, right?" Cao Hongbin didn't take Zhou Lie's question seriously.

"Brother Cao, listen well, my age is 708 in the retro calendar. Just before 708, many demon stars suddenly appeared and descended on the earth. In just a few months, the world was full of terrible things. Dust, it is said that a lot of strange things happened at that time."

Zhou Lie took a deep breath and said with an extremely solemn expression: "The entire human civilization has suffered a devastating blow. It took two hundred years to recover some vitality, and it took another two hundred years to start building villages and towns on the ruins. To this day, villages Hecheng is still affected. Whenever there is a white fog, the crops will never be harvested, and many terrifying monsters will come out to attack the village, so if you want to survive, you have to keep improving."

"I said Zhou Lie, you won't get delusional disorder, do you? Although the American Observatory failed to detect the asteroid hitting the ground in advance, this is indeed a bit strange, but you think human civilization is too fragile. Now the technological development is changing with each passing day, even if Some disasters can be rescued in time."

Cao Hongbin laughed: "Hehe, don't think about it, kid! Assuming what you said is true, can we talk over 700 years? Another assumption is that as long as humans survive the difficult times, in order to resist natural disasters It will definitely be more urgent to develop science and technology. It will not take a few hundred years, but only a few decades, and it will inevitably be more prosperous than today, and the state of force will also develop to the extreme.

"Brother Cao, listen to me."

Zhou Lie tried to explain: "I heard from the old people in the village that it was because of the geomagnetic field that most of the old-age objects were unusable, and in many places they couldn't even charge, let alone make a phone call! It is very troublesome for us to contact others here. It seems that there is no convenient way at present. This stone cave like the one I live in is very rare. It is called a sanctuary or magnetic eye. The villagers don’t know this treasure for the time being, I intend to hide it. Keep it for as long as you want. If someone else knows about it, it’s not my turn to use it.

Cao Hongbin was silent for a long time before saying: "Humanity has been destroyed and civilization has regressed.

Zhou Lie slapped his thigh straight: "Brother Cao, this is true! I was skeptical before, because how can a famous teacher like Uncle Dong guide me this mountain village boy so carefully? Here we want to learn fine art, the threshold It is very high, sometimes so high that it is desperate, it is very common to pass on from men to women, and some skills are not even taught by concubines."

Hearing this, Cao Hongbin took a deep breath and said dazedly: "I still don't believe that this kind of thing will happen. Hang up the phone first. I will check with a classmate who works in the United States."

Cao Hongbin hung up the phone. Zhou Lie sat down. The more he thought about it, the more amazing he felt. These days he was talking and chatting with ancient people more than 700 years ago, and he also got advice from his predecessors. If this phone can keep talking, right? Means he can learn a lot?

After this incident, Zhou Lie was not in a hurry to go home. He had to wait in the cave for Brother Cao to call back. As long as he left the cave, the phone could not be used, so even if he was blocked by Xu Shaoyou, he could not leave easily. go with.

Until two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Lie did not wait for Xu Shaoyou, nor did he wait for the call. Instead, he waited for Zu Wanhao and Xu Tianbao.

The fat man entered the cave and laughed: "Brother Lie! You beat Xu Shaoyou hard, but I think this kid is mostly angry and wanted to kill the chicken for the monkey to see, but instead of killing the chicken, he kicked the iron plate. This is a small one, and the old one can’t sit still. His mother, at noon the third elder went to Brother Lie’s house, but the little ring girl was very good, and the old thing was blushing in just a few words. Anyway, the village rules are there. Who can blame someone for inferior skills? It's just... when did you become so powerful, Brother Lie? Can you teach me and Tianbao?"

"Hahaha, are you greedy, right? Okay, follow me to practice and make sure you make great progress." Zhou Lie was very happy, and he didn't hide his secrets.

In the past, he was only a half-chip better than Zu Wanhao and Xu Tianbao. If the two join forces, it will be difficult for him to parry.However, after getting advice from Uncle Dong, many places were suddenly opened, and the distance was immediately opened.

The good brothers naturally want to help each other. In fact, he once taught yoga to the two of them, but the fat man couldn't practice anything. Xu Tianbao has family skills and only practiced occasionally.

What Zhou Lie thinks now is that if Cao Ge can read the manuscript left by Uncle Dong, perhaps his ability can be improved in the short term.That means that he can live better than others, and maybe one day he can walk out of the small mountain village and go to Yangliu City. That is his dream!!!
