In the vast and boundless universe, countless planets formed a vast sea of stars. It was boundless and full of mysteries and unknowns. Among these countless planets, there was a blue planet called Earth. Next to it, there was a star that was emitting flames all over. The humans on Earth called it the sun.
The existence of the sun was what allowed the creatures on Earth to exist. The humans on Earth could not imagine that one day they would lose the sun and never see sunlight again.
However, this kind of thing happened in the year 2013 of the Earth calendar. It came so suddenly, so without warning, so unbelievable.
****
One afternoon in the summer of 2013, Xiao Lingyu was about to take a nap after eating as usual. However, just as he lay on his bed in his university dormitory, his phone rang.
"Hey, lazy pig, come down quickly. I'm waiting downstairs in your dormitory."
Xiao Lingyu's girlfriend's voice came from the other end of the phone. Although it was very sweet, for Xiao Lingyu, who played World of Warcraft all night last night and ran to the classroom in the morning, not daring to sleep under the eyes of the old professor, this was undoubtedly a call from hell.
"Beauty, I've just eaten. Why don't you go eat alone? We can eat together tonight. " Xiao Lingyu's expression was sad, but his words were as gentle as possible. It was not that he was afraid of his girlfriend, but he liked her very much and did not want her to be angry if she knew that he played with her all night last night.
"No, we have an agreement. During the time we are dating, you have to accompany me to eat every meal. As long as the conditions permit, you can come and watch me eat even if you have eaten. Beep … "
Xiao Lingyu was helpless. His girlfriend had already hung up the phone. He knew that he could only hold on for a little longer. However, in fact, in his heart, he was both happy and painful. This kind of feeling could not be understood by people who had never been in a relationship.
Xiao Lingyu put on the T-shirt he had just taken off. First, he washed his face with cold water, trying to make himself more energetic. Then, he rushed downstairs in the dormitory.
However, on the way downstairs, Xiao Lingyu still felt a little dizzy, as if he had not woken up yet.
When he reached the dormitory, Xiao Lingyu saw his girlfriend, Gu Xiaomin, who was wearing a white dress and holding two books.
"What took you so long? I've been waiting for you for a long time! The end of the world didn't come last year. Maybe it will happen this year. You know, some prophecies aren't accurate. There are fluctuations of one or two years, so we can't waste time. We have to do more meaningful things in our limited lives! "
Gu Xiaomin walked up and hugged Xiao Lingyu's arm intimately. She was grumbling a little, but she was grinning. She wasn't tall, and even with the exquisite crystal hairpin on her head, she only reached Xiao Lingyu's shoulders.
Xiao Lingyu scratched Gu Xiaomin's delicate nose as she shook her head and said, "That's all nonsense. You're also a university student. You don't believe in those nonsensical predictions, do you?"
"If the world really ends this year, what would you like to do before you die?" Gu Xiaomin asked curiously as he dragged Xiao Lingyu to the cafeteria.
"Uh, the thing I want to do the most is … to do you before I die!" Xiao Lingyu said with a smirk as he thought about it seriously.
He had been dating Gu Xiaomin for more than a year. Unfortunately, Xiao Lingyu had never been able to complete the last step of a relationship between a man and a woman. He had never been able to break through the last barrier. Of course, he had no complaints about this. He felt that this kind of thing should be allowed to happen naturally and not blindly forced. He was also not the kind of man who would fall in love with the intention of tricking a girl into bed.
"Don't even think about it. You'd better keep the hat of a virgin until the end of the world!" Gu Xiaomin said fiercely as she pinched Xiao Lingyu's arm.
"Then what would you like to do before the end of the world?" Xiao Lingyu followed the topic and asked.
The two of them were in love. The man was handsome, and the woman was beautiful. As they walked, it could be said that they were the envy of others. This also made Xiao Lingyu feel very proud. Therefore, even though his mental state wasn't very good, he still straightened his back, but his steps were a little shaky.
"The thing I want to do the most is to hug your arm like this and turn into ashes with you!" Gu Xiaomin said very seriously with a face full of happiness.
"Hey, hey, hey, I see that you're still full of beautiful expectations for the end of the world. Were you disappointed that the end of the world didn't come last year? If the end of the world really happens this year, just don't be scared out of your wits! "Xiao Lingyu was a little speechless at his girlfriend's romantic feelings.
Just as they were chatting and laughing as they walked to the entrance of the cafeteria, a shadow gradually covered the sun. Everyone raised their heads at the same time and looked up at the sky.
"The weather in this summer is really unreliable. It changes all of a sudden. Just now, the sun was so hot that it made people want to peel off a layer of skin. Now, it's cloudy. There might even be a big rainstorm later!" Xiao Lingyu said with a pout.
"Look, it's a solar eclipse!"
Xiao Lingyu originally wanted to pull Gu Xiaomin into the cafeteria quickly to avoid being drenched by the sudden rain. However, Gu Xiaomin pointed to the sky and shouted.
"What solar eclipse? If there was a solar eclipse, the news would have announced it long ago."
Xiao Lingyu raised her head in confusion and looked in the direction of Gu Xiaomin's jade-like finger. She said in surprise, "Eh? It really is a solar eclipse. Strange, why isn't there a forecast? "
In the sky, the sun that was so bright that it was a little dazzling was gradually being covered, as if someone had covered it with a piece of black cloth.
The most important thing was that at this moment, the temperature seemed to be dropping rapidly, causing everyone to shiver.
In just a few seconds, the entire world was plunged into complete darkness. Even though Gu Xiaomin was right beside him, Xiao Lingyu couldn't see her face. It was even darker than being unable to see his own fingers.
The entire world fell silent at this moment. It was so quiet that it was a little suffocating.
Perhaps it was because no one took it to heart, or perhaps it was because it was too cold outside and the ground was about to freeze. The students at the entrance of the cafeteria ran into the cafeteria one after another, including Xiao Lingyu and Gu Xiaomin.
When they arrived at the cafeteria, they still felt very cold. After all, it was noon in the summer, and everyone was wearing very little.
There was a large screen hanging on the wall in the cafeteria. At this moment, it was broadcasting the news, reminding everyone not to go out and to wear more clothes. It also said that every place on Earth was currently pitch-black, and the temperature was gradually dropping.
Gu Xiaomin snuggled tightly in Xiao Lingyu's arms, her entire body shivering.
"It's too cold outside. Let me send you back to the dormitory to get you some clothes?" Xiao Lingyu said, taking deep breaths.
"Okay!" Gu Xiaomin nodded obediently.
Braving the cold, Xiao Lingyu, who used the light from his phone to illuminate the area, sent Gu Xiaomin back to the dormitory. He even told her not to run around again. Then, he returned to the dormitory and wrapped himself in his blanket.
Originally, Xiao Lingyu was about to go to bed, but he was still a little curious and a little worried, so he took out his phone to call his parents. Unfortunately, there was no signal on his phone and the call could not be made.
"What's going on? Is it really the end of the world? Didn't the end of the world already pass last year? "
Xiao Lingyu was a little depressed as he thought about it. At the same time, he sat up on the bed and looked at the sky outside the window. At this moment, his three roommates had also returned, but no one said a word. They all wrapped themselves in their blankets and stared blankly at the darkness outside.
To be honest, under such circumstances, everyone was a little scared. The lights in the dormitory had already been turned on. In order to relieve the inexplicable nervousness in his heart, a roommate turned on the television.
Fortunately, the cable television was still very clear, but all the channels were broadcasting the abnormal weather situation. From the host's ashen expression, everyone could guess that something big was going to happen this time.
Less than a minute after the television was turned on, a dazzling flame suddenly appeared in the dark sky again. Although this flame did not bring warmth to everyone, it seemed to be gradually approaching the ground, but it also seemed to be too far away and could not really get close.
It was not until nearly twenty minutes later that the flame became clear in everyone's eyes. However, what they could not imagine was that the flame looked like an incomparably huge fire phoenix from its appearance.
Its entire body was suffused with fiery light. Its two wings that seemed to be able to cover the sky and cover the sun, as well as a few extremely long and elegant tail feathers, were all flowing with golden light. It flew over from the ninth heaven, appearing so noble and elegant that no one dared to have the slightest intention of blasphemy.
And behind it, there was a black sky closely chasing after it, like a large black net that wanted to catch birds.
"Quick, watch the television!" A roommate shouted loudly.
Xiao Lingyu turned around and looked at the television. The clear image on the television stunned him.
"It really is a fire phoenix! What's behind it? "A roommate asked in disbelief.
"It seems to be a very, very large piece of black cloth! Behind the black cloth, it seems to be the sun! "Another roommate said in shock.
Xiao Lingyu looked out of the window again. Indeed, behind the Fire Phoenix, there was a circle of brilliant white light surrounding the pitch-black cloth.
At the same time, everyone felt that the temperature was rapidly rising.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please pay attention. The sun is approaching the earth! The earth's temperature is continuously rising! "The host's anxious and panicked voice sounded from the television.
"How could this be?!" Xiao Lingyu was dumbstruck.
The fire phoenix did not continue to approach the earth. Instead, it suddenly stopped, turned around, and flew toward the black cloth.
And the black cloth slowly shrank, finally revealing a black dragon of unknown length.
That's right, on the television screen, there was a long dragon that was completely black and exuding a black mist. It was facing off against the fire phoenix from a distance. Not long after, they began to fight.
Bursts of flames spewed out of the fire phoenix's mouth, but they were extinguished by the waves of black air.
The battle between the fire phoenix and the black dragon was taking place in the void between the earth and the moon, and it was affecting the earth as well.
"Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are occurring all over the world …"
"The most powerful tsunami in history …"
"The glaciers in the North and South Poles have completely melted, but the seawater is continuously evaporating …"
"Rivers all over the world have stopped flowing, and riverbeds have collapsed. China's Yangtze River and Yellow River are also affected …"
