: The thunder of arid mountains

Throughout the summer’s scorching sun, although the mountains were not too hot, large areas of grass and trees that had lost water due to drought had dried up and turned yellow, as yellow as winter, but as dense as autumn.
Dry air, it seems that a shout will make it burn immediately.
Three days ago, the water diversion pipe was cut off, which shows that the last water source on the other side has also dried up. Only a little bit of water in the reservoir is left in the col. If it does not rain, it will be used up.
Without water, people cannot survive. In fact, if it were not for the water diversion and storage projects built by Huang Yaoshi and Hong Qi in the past, when the drought broke out last winter, Yang Yi and A Ke would have moved directly to live outside the mountain, perhaps in the city of Chang'an.
Because Yang Yi has no physical strength to climb over the mountains to carry water, he is very old.
Sheep knew that it was the 648th year when he came into this world, but he didn't know how old he should be, but he knew that his wife Akademo was 110 years old.
The saint Akademo said that she was very happy, because the first seven generations of saints had only lived 50 or 60 years old, but she was 110 years old and she hadn't lost even a tooth. Except for the stubborn holy fire bow, she felt that she was no different from when she was young.
In fact, Akko has stopped looking in the mirror more than 30 years ago, and he does not want to look down when he passes by the pool.
The sheep said to her: In my eyes you will always look like you were sixteen when you first met.
Akke knows that he said this is true, because for more than ninety years, he still has to put his arms around her to fall asleep. More than ninety years later, his touching and kissing are still as gentle as they were ninety years ago.
The deep love can't be faked at all.
One hundred and ten years old is the age of a god, but he and her have an appointment to live to two hundred or three hundred years old, until the day they find the way back, until they find who they are.
Sheep knows very well that people cannot live forever, but if she finds who she is and the key to the way home, she can renew her love for eternity.
Akko still has that dream often. In her dream, she clearly sees the appearance of Yang Yi, which is the appearance she took off the mask in the Saintess Hall more than ninety years ago.
The clothes he wore in the dream were strange, but very beautiful. He likes to play football and the big box piano, and every movement is charming.
Yang Yi didn't dream of anything, he didn't seem to have dreamed in these six hundred years. Akko said, maybe because now is in your dream, me and you, the world, are just in your dream.
I love you from the first sight, and not only in the end.
But the pace of the years could not be stopped after all, and he and she still grew old irresistibly. Now he can no longer walk the steep mountain road to carry water on the other side of the mountain, and he can't kill the crazy antelope.
One afternoon four years ago, as soon as the sheep went hunting as usual, they encountered a antelope that was in heat. It was very fierce. In the end, he tried his best to cut it and wound it, but he still let the antelope run away, and the sheep dropped the knife for a long time.
He came to this world to kill a living creature for the first time, and it was such an antelope. The last time I tried to kill was an antelope, everything seemed to be reincarnation.
From then on, he put down the knife.
Akke can't pull the holy fire bow long ago, but she can still play the piano, and she can play it superbly. Huang Yaoshi, who was proficient in rhythm in the past, said that the saint’s piano skills have reached the level of transformation, and they are the sound of nature.
Huang Yaoshi and Hong Qi left here 25 years ago, and Dongxie and Beigai lived in the col for eleven years. When they left, they still hadn't realized their martial arts.
They are not Yang Yi and A Ke, after all, they still have concerns in the world, and they also have ideals in their hearts.
Yaoshi Huang left because he heard that Huang Rong and Guo Jingman were looking for him, and that his granddaughter Guo Fu was almost nine years old. He didn't like the silly son-in-law Guo Jing, but his granddaughter could still get close.
Hong Qigong left because a powerful female demon with martial arts appeared on the rivers and lakes, killing people like hemp and using cruel methods, often just a word to destroy people, and servants and maids would not let it go.
Hong Qigong, who has been jealous and hated his whole life, can ignore the world, but he can't tolerate such a wicked person in the world. He wants to get rid of the female devil.
The devil's name is Li Mochou, the apprentice of the grandmother in the tomb of the living dead many years ago.
But Hong Qigong did not kill Li Mochou. In the sixth year after they left, Yaoshi Huang came back and said that Hong Qi was dead, and he and Ouyang Feng had played seven days and seven nights on the top of Huashan. People finally exhausted their vitality and died together, and smiled before dying.
Xi Du and Bei Biao died, leaving only two of Wu Jue in the martial arts world.
After this, Huang Yaoshi never came again. Yangyi and Akko still don't know whether he is alive or dead, nor do they want to inquire, because it is not important. Even at this time, all the sheep in the world outside the mountain are indifferent.
The Golden Jurchens, who were once tough to horror, have died. Their glorious time is far less than the Khitans and Xixia people. Now they are replaced by the more brutal Mongols.
The heroes Guo Jing and the female hero Huang Rong led the Song martial arts community to defend Xiangyang. They did not have the military talents of Yue Fei, but they did the same tragic things as Grandpa Yue.
The profound iron epee of Luda from the past has reappeared in the world, holding it is a young man named Yang Guo, and his wife is Xiaolongnu.
And because since the Jingkang period, several generations of people have lived in the enemy-occupied areas, and now the Northern Central Plains people have separated from the Song Dynasty. Master Wang has been unable to recover the mountains and rivers for a long time. They are heartbroken and do not want to call themselves ‘Song people’ anymore.
The people of the Central Plains in the north don't know how to deal with themselves. They are not Mongolians, nor are they Turkic, Uighur and other Semu people, let alone Song people. Therefore, the northern Central Plains people invented the term ‘Han’ and called themselves ‘Southern’ in a mocking and contemptuous tone.
These sheep don't know, and they don't care about it, because after six hundred years of living, he has experienced the rise and fall of the two most beautiful dynasties in the history of the Central Plains, Tang and Song, and nothing can make waves in his heart.
These are no longer important.
But the water conservancy project built by Huang Yaoshi and Hong Qi is very important, otherwise Yangyi and Akke will leave Zhongnanshan early due to drought.
Moreover, Huang Yaoshi is proficient in the theory of the five elements. He analyzed that the first sheep died because of water, and water overcomes fire, then it will be reborn in fire.
Yang Yi thinks what he said is all nonsense, because the saint Ake is the holy fire, and he has met him for more than ninety years.
.
In fact, there is not much water in the storage pond, so it will be dried out in a few days. And because of the sediment and dirt in the pond, there is less and less drinkable.
As soon as the sheep dragged some dry branches to cover the pool, he picked up a small pile of dry branches and walked slowly back to the small wooden building. These were firewood for cooking.
There are few meals left in the stored food. After dinner, Yang Yi and Akko discussed: Should we go outside the mountain tomorrow?
Akko sighed: "Well, at our age, once we go out, it won't be easy to come back again."
"There is no other way. Without food, water is almost gone. I can't survive in the mountains."
"What about going outside the mountain? If you run into a gangster, you and I may not be able to fight. Ayang, I am afraid of the outside."
"Don't be afraid, ordinary bad guys, I can still deal with one or two, don't worry. Ake, come over again, let me hold you tightly, so that I won't be afraid."
"Ayang, UU reading www.uukanshu.com you must find me again in your next life."
"Definitely, even if I look for another five hundred years, I will find you."
"There is still the next life."
"Well, I promise, every life. I will be with you from life to life, and we will never be alone or separate."
He and her hugged and fell asleep. There was no wind in the dark mountains and forests, only the dry trees and withered grass wailed silently.
In the endless darkness, there is no trace of light.
‘Rumble~~~’ A muffled thunder struck through the air.
Maybe it was because he was too sleepy, more likely because he was too old, neither he nor she was awakened, but just muttered a few words in a dream.
"It's thundering. It may rain."
"Let's get down, there is no need to move out if it rains."
