May you be happy and prosperous

For Lu Twelve, he probably had a long, long nightmare.

In the dream, a tall young man said to him such nonsense as "I won't resign, boss, until this shop closes down." What's worse, his tone sounded more like a wedding vow He was more serious, so Lu Twelve foolishly believed it. As a result, the tall young man who said such a thing to him disappeared by his side the next day as if the world had evaporated... Lu Twelve in his dream was facing the scorching sun Gao Yang was looking for this young man all over the world, but he couldn't find him. When he was walking back and forth in the street in a daze, suddenly, the sunlight above his head was covered by a huge flying object. He raised his head and saw I can't see the sun, but I can only see aliens with strange shapes descending from the sky. Where they landed, all the bustling streets and buildings are in ruins. In the dust, Lu Twelve saw a huge beast , walking towards him slowly from the smoke of gunpowder with graceful steps.

It has a pair of golden pupils.

When stared at by such pupils, Lu Twelve felt that the blood in his whole body was flowing backwards. He was icy cold and began to tremble with fear. Under the gaze of these golden pupils, he couldn't cry out. Not taking the step to escape, he watched the world collapse around him, but he could only stand there powerlessly...

The big cat with silver fur and golden markings stopped in front of him unhurriedly. It squatted down and looked at him with its head tilted. On its forehead was a metal metal that looked like a sickle and a flower. The pattern shone with the same light... Lu Twelve stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the ear of the big cat, but the other seemed impatient and shook his head to avoid his hand, and tilted his head again. , staring at him with those golden pupils.

Lu Twelve saw himself reaching out to the big cat in front of him, but his fingertips stopped suddenly when they touched the furry cheek of the big cat, and he heard himself asking it in a hoarse voice——

"Excuse me, have you seen Ajie?"

At the same time he raised his question, the sunlight above his head completely disappeared.

Everything around suddenly became cold and dark.

A drop of icy rain fell from the sky and landed on his face with a soft "click".

rain.

……It's raining?

The winter in City G is obviously very dry, shouldn't it rain?

...Ah, it's so cold, damn it, why is it so cold?

……

The high-definition magnetic levitation screens that flickered all night played colorful advertisements, and young people in fancy clothes with colorful hair dyed their hair walked through the streets in groups, leaving only wanton laughter and laughter, densely packed with all kinds of goods. The advertising horns mixed with various melody music played at the entrance of the shop, and the sound of car horns on the street seem to have become the main theme of this bustling city...

When the sky suddenly rained heavily without warning, the pouring rain disrupted the original rhythm of the street, the sound of car horns became more cheerful, and people in gorgeous clothes complained and scattered to find distance from themselves. The nearest eaves shelter from the rain—

Only the colorful light spots cast by the neon lights are left, reflected in the gradually deepening water on the ground.

However, in this bustling street, there are still some places that cannot be illuminated by neon lights.

A city has intricate streets, which means that there are always some dark alleys that exist behind the hustle and bustle and become the shadow of the city. In the heavy rain, when people rush through the streets on the stagnant water, Not many people noticed that as they hurried past the dark alley that formed between the two buildings, deep in the alley, next to the garbage cans piled high with rubbish, under a cardboard shell , suddenly something moved.

Under the cardboard shell, there seemed to be something that was alive.

"—Ah, probably a homeless man or an alcoholic, I hate it, why can't this kind of person go to the relief station to find a job?" A young girl standing on the side of the street seemed to wrinkle in boredom Eyebrow, said to the companion beside him with disgust on his face.

Her companion was about to start a conversation, when a small figure squeezed out from behind them, the rotten smell of not taking a shower for a few days and the mud that was so dirty that the original color of the clothes could not be seen from his body She swallowed back the harsh words she was about to say, screamed as if she had been stung by a bee, and stepped away——

The kid who was about to run away heard the scream, turned around, made a face at the screaming woman, stepped on the water again, and seemed to be indifferent to the downpour of rain, all the way " He rushed into the dark alley with a "bajibaji"... He hurriedly ran two steps, and after he saw the thing covered under the cardboard shell moving from the corner of his vision, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly He stopped his footsteps and stepped back, his face was instantly stained with cheerful light, he squatted down suddenly and lifted the cardboard case, and said happily: "Hey! You are still alive!"

The cardboard case was lifted.

A slender, black-haired young man in his twenties was revealed.

Without the cover of the cardboard shell, the huge raindrops falling from between the cracks of the building mercilessly landed on his face, which seemed to wake him up from his lethargic state. He slowly opened his eyes and blinked. Blink, close your eyes again, and open them again after a few seconds——

In a field of vision blurred by the rain, Lu Twelve saw a dirty little face leaning in front of him.

He was stunned for a moment.

The next second—

end.

war.

alien.

Countless messy things poured into his head in an instant, and he felt his blood flowing upstream from the soles of his feet towards Tianling Gai. Lu Twelve didn't even want to grab the child in front of him and stuff it into his arms. After he yelled "Ouch", he stretched out his hand to cover his mouth nervously, then, he blindly glanced around, and finally fixed on the hard paper shell, he grabbed the hard paper shell , covering the heads of himself and the child in his arms!

The raindrops fell on the cardboard, making a crackling sound.

Lu Twelve heard his heart beating fast.

And the child in his arms was still struggling, his face was stuffy in his arms, and he kept yelling "let me go, let me go", Lu Twelve was beaten and kicked by him, he had no choice but to let go. Open your own hand—the other party jumped three feet high and jumped far away as if breaking free from some restraint, at the same time, the cardboard shell that originally covered their heads flew away——

"There's something wrong with you!" The little kid pointed at him and cursed.

"Hush!" Lu Twelve's eyes widened, "You don't want to die! What if those people hear it!"

"What? Who?"

"Vatlum!"

"Watt... what the hell?" The dirty kid frowned, looking at him sitting on the ground with his hips akimbo, wearing a white T-shirt and baggy shorts.At this moment, the panic-stricken black-haired young man——after scanning him from beginning to end, the little boy showed a sudden realization expression, "I see, you really have something wrong!"

"...I'm not sick, don't yell." When he found himself sitting in the mud next to the trash can, Lu Twelve frowned and tried to stand up from the ground. When he tried this way, he found that His whole body was so sore, and when he stabilized himself extremely slowly, he glanced at the kid standing not far from him again, and asked, "Have those aliens already evacuated?"

"Yes," the little boy looked at Lu Twelve sympathetically and said, "I just evacuated, not long ago, it will be 500 years..."

"Hey," Lu Twelve cast a sidelong glance at him, "Who's kid, are you stupid?"

"... whoever is stupid knows."

The little kid curled his lips and showed a tugging expression, and then stepped forward and grabbed the hand of the black-haired young man—because of the height difference, he needed to stand on tiptoe a little while doing this , but when he grabbed the hand of the black-haired young man, he did not hesitate to be the guide - he held his head high and held the black-haired young man, facing the pouring rain, towards the alley. go.

then.

Just like that, Lu Twelve woke up under a simple cardboard cover, walked out of the dark and dirty alley, and stood at the exit of the alley. The street he was familiar with.

But at this very moment—

He saw neon lights flashing colors in ways he had never seen before.

He saw the Sky Bridge, which he had never seen before, spanning in all directions across his head. On the bridge, a magnetic levitation vehicle with flashing fluorescent lights was passing by at a speed that made people doubt that it was about to fly. .

He saw brightly lit and unusually prosperous shops standing on both sides of the street.

He saw brand new tall buildings.

He saw people coming and going.

He saw cars of all shapes and colors painted on them.

only……

It's just that he didn't know when his "Zhaocaijinbao" turned into an adult sex toy shop.

It's just that he doesn't know when the building will be so tall that standing on the ground and raising his head, he can't see the top at a glance.

It's just that he still doesn't know when people will start to popularize the colorful and ice-colored Shamat afro head again.

It's just that when the performance floats with monster horns or peacock tails can be used as normal private cars on the road, he... still doesn't know.

Lu Twelve almost didn't know the words "don't know".

Well, to be precise, he almost doesn't know this world anymore.

The eyes of the black-haired young man finally fell on the direction of the high-rise building that he was familiar with. Once, he had witnessed aliens land on the roof of this high-rise building, and the gravel they stepped on The billboard screen smashed a huge crack...

But now, the high-rise buildings that are falling apart have been replaced by a new, taller and more luxurious building; in his memory, the LED screen with deep cracks is now also gone. It turned into a huge magnetic levitation color screen that is jaw-dropping. The clear picture on the screen is incomparable to those large advertising screens in Lu Twelve's memory. At this moment, after being washed by the rain, the huge On the screen, there seems to be a promotional video of some sci-fi movie——

Two huge furry beasts are intertwined. They are located in a venue similar to a Colosseum. At the moment, they are tearing and biting each other's fur!When one of them seemed to be completely suppressed by the other larger one, a metal barbed tail like a scorpion's tail grew out from its back, and that tail plunged into it unexpectedly and firmly pressed on it. In the fur of another beast!The impaled beast seemed to be in pain, and raised its head and let out a roar all day long—with this roar, the people around the venue on the screen began to cheer, shouting their names together, and the next second, The screen switched with a "snap" in a second, and a row of fiery red subtitles appeared at the bottom of the screen——

[Warring Eudemons registration is in progress across the continent, tens of millions of gold coins are waiting for you!Come on, your Eudemons is the next "protégé"! ] Lu Twelve: "...Hello, brat?"

Little boy: "What are you doing?"

Lu Twelfth: "...This science fiction film is very realistic, isn't it?"

Little boy: "Sci-fi movie?... Big brother, you also played the identity of the time traveler very realistically, and you can even pretend to be dazed while watching a martial arts match. I almost really want to be deceived by you." arrive."

Lu Twelve: "..."

Little Kid: "..."

Lu Twelve: "..."

Little Kid: "..."

Lu Twelve: "... How many years is it now?"

Little Kid: "2515."

Lu Twelve: "Hey, I can't see that you still use the Buddhist calendar at such a young age."

Little boy: "Buddhist calendar? What the hell is that? It is now July 2515, 7 AD, Sunday, which is also the legendary weekend. The land you are standing on is City G, the central city of the first affiliated state of the Middle Ancient Continent. , well, what's the problem now?"

Q: 2515-2015=?

Answer: 500.

"... Oh, no problem," Lu Twelve patted the shoulder of the little boy next to him expressionlessly, "It's just that I just found out that I seem to have traveled through time. Fortunately, the time span is not too much, so... ...500 years?"

The author has something to say:

[Popular Science Jun] Buddhist calendar: a kind of calendar.The year after the death of Sakyamuni is the first year of the era. "People's Daily" 1978.11.8: The Buddhist calendar takes the year after the death of Sakyamuni as the first year of the era, which is 540 years earlier than the Gregorian calendar commonly used in the world. (So ​​this year should be 2558 in the Buddhist calendar hahahahahaha.)
