207 A Piece of Ashes
"If you don't go back to Peacock Ridge, where are you going?" Death Yin quickly answered.
However, Shan Xuan succeeded in getting angry, "You care about me, and you say that where I go is not something you can control." ”
Death Yin opened her mouth, and she wanted to say that who else would care about her besides him! was worried that saying this sentence would make Shan Xuan sad, so he fell silent.
Shan Xuan thought that her loud voice frightened Yu Yin, so she immediately threw the bowl in her hand on the ground, and was about to leave in a chic manner with a shake of her head, "I'm leaving, you guys are busy with yours!" ”
The soup bowl fell to the ground but it was not broken, although it was brought back by tired Tang Huanxi after running a long way, but it is estimated that no one will pick it up.
When the people were far away, Yu Yin didn't stop Shan Xuan, and this meeting made Tang Huanxi look embarrassed.
One is arrogant, the other is spoiled, is there such a show of affection?
"You go and watch her, and be sure to send her back to Peacock Ridge." Yu Yin finally explained this to Tang Huanxi.
Does Tang Huanxi still have the right to say 'no' in front of the powerful demon king? I had to respond quickly.
Before leaving, Yu Yin confessed again, "If you can't do it, you will die a miserable death!" ”
Although his expression was not fierce at all when he said this, and his voice was not cold at all, Tang Huanxi was still sweating.
Why is this Shan Xuan not here, I feel that the cruel words of the dead have become a little more powerful!
When Tang Huanxi ran to find Shan Xuan, Shan Xuan was throwing a branch to decide which way to go, maybe a person was too bored, Shan Xuan still showed a happy expression when she saw Tang Huanxi.
However, Tang Huanxi said, "I'll send you back to Peacock Ridge." ”
In a word, Shan Xuan stopped paying attention to him, and even ignored Tang Huanxi no matter what Tang Huanxi said.
If this Tang Huanxi was a little bit different from Shan Xuan's strength, he would have the confidence to stop Shan Xuan, but unfortunately he had no chance to fight back in front of Shan Xuan.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have been intimidated by Shan Xuan hanging above the lake before!
Shan Xuan saw that Tang Huanxi had been following her, and she knew that she really didn't have time to deal with her.
It's just that she can't come back, even if she doesn't go back to Peacock Ridge, what can she do?
But Shan Xuan is leisurely, but Tang Huanxi wants to cry!
How can this be? I'd rather wander around in this wilderness than go to Peacock Ridge, he would rather lie on the ground and rest for a while!
Early this morning, he was instructed to do this, do that, and dig ginseng, and Tang Huanxi felt that the two legs were not his own.
"I said, they are born from the same root, so why be in a hurry! If you don't go back, the demon king will kill me! ”
Shan Xuan heard Tang Huanxi speak, and when she walked over, "Obviously, you were still dead before, why are you now saying the demon king on the left and the demon king on the right?" ”
Tang Huanxi was picked out by Shan Xuan to point out this, but he didn't feel embarrassed, but said with a little arrogance: "You don't understand this!" Without Zhong Shan's stubble, I don't belong to him, of course I can call it anything, but now that he is my boss, I have to take it easy! Say anything you want, but it will reach his ears. ”
Shan Xuan looked at Tang Huanxi like this, a little stunned.
Such a look fell on Tang Huanxi's eyes, it really frightened him, Shan Xuan couldn't be infatuated with him, right? Robbing a woman with the demon king, he doesn't want to die young!
"Why do you want to join the demon clan?" Shan Xuan asked.
When Tang Huanxi heard Shan Xuan ask this, he knew that he was thinking too much, but of course he felt relieved, "Didn't I answer you before?" ”
"Don't tell me that it's for refining weapons or secret weapons or anything, you can do whatever you want to do on your own, and those shouldn't be the reasons for you to join the demon clan."
Shan Xuan's words were very strong, and he felt excited in Tang Huanxi's ears, but he really had lofty ideals and revenge, which could not be accomplished by himself.
"I just think so! I haven't made a name for myself in Tiancang Mountain, and if I follow the Demon King, I may be able to make a difference! ”
Life is in the world, but in just a few decades, even if it is an immortal cultivator, there are a few people who can have a long lifespan like the benevolent sage Xuanbo and them.
It is understandable that a young man wants to make a contribution, but this is the first time Shan Xuan has heard that he has to take refuge in the demon clan in order to make a contribution!
"Is it good to follow the death to chaos in the world?"
"Is it a chaotic world? I don't think so. Tang Huanxi said.
At this time, the two of them stood on the path in the middle of the mountain, like a canopy of trees, so tightly covering the sun that they felt a little cold when they stayed below.
Shan Xuan didn't ask Tang Huanxi why she didn't think so, because she knew that Tang Huanxi would definitely say something, at least in order to keep her from leaving.
Sure enough, after a while, Tang Huanxi continued: "Maybe you have a preconceived idea! I feel that the immortals are superior to others, and the demons will do all kinds of evil. I have been in Tiancang Mountain for nearly seven years, and I have learned these skills that you see, they don't teach me these skills with their hearts, of course, it is possible that I am not talented enough, but what I have endured and seen is definitely not just about spiritual matters. ”
It has been seven years since Shan Xuan entered Tiancang Mountain, so it is thought that this Tang Huanxi should have been accepted in the same batch as her.
However, Shan Xuan followed Wen Yuan Zhenren and lived in Changle Hall three months after joining Tiancang Mountain, and there was no third person in Changle Hall except for the master and apprentice.
The people she came into contact with were not ordinary disciples, and she rarely heard of these, and she thought that Tiancang Mountain was all brothers, friends, and brothers, and they were harmonious!
"Of course, in fact, the senior brother and junior brother of Tiancang Mountain are already very kind, I only made this decision after seeing too many ugly mortals and too many poor monsters. All I know is that youkai don't kill people for no reason, either by blocking their way or encroaching on their territory. But what about mortals! What about immortal cultivators! When they see demons, unless they can't defeat them, they will either kill them or capture them alive.
Originally, sticking out the head was also a knife, and shrinking the head was also a knife, but they still like to torture demons. By the way, Demon Suppression Tower, haven't you been there? ”
After Tang Huanxi finished speaking, he suddenly looked at Shan Xuan, and Shan Xuan followed what he said, and naturally inevitably thought of what he had seen in the Demon Suppression Tower.
Shan Xuan entered and exited the Demon Town Tower twice, the first time she was stunned to kill a bloody path, and the second time was that Qu Zhen and Su Sha tried their last trace of soul power to get out.
There was no food or water, there was nothing, but there were so many demons locked up, it was conceivable that they would starve to death unless they devoured each other.
"It's purification, excesses or something, it's nothing more than imposing one's will on the demons, which is not cruel to them. You say that you are born different, so why bother with how others live! ”
Tang Huanxi sneered as he spoke, those righteous and awe-inspiring righteous acts, I am afraid that in his eyes, there is no difference between bullying and bullying.
"You know, I know there is some truth to it, but in fact, most demons don't have compassion."
"Fart Compassion!" Tang Huanxi scoffed, "I can't eat enough, give the last bite of food to others, and then starve to death, or only have one chance, save strangers, but not save my own family, this is called compassion?" ”
Shan Xuan understood that Tang Huanxi could reveal his heart to her, naturally out of trust and attention to her, but Tang Huanxi's concept was a bit different, and Shan Xuan couldn't accept it for a while.
It's as if she can't accept Wen Yuan Zhenren's practice of giving up seeking justice for Lu Jiashi's death in order not to cause a war.
It is also unacceptable to use a glass of forgetful water to forget the beloved.
But Wen Yuan Zhenren's teaching all the time made Shan Xuan dare not be so dismissive.
"Anyway, I think that although the demon king launched the fairy and demon war at this time, there is nothing wrong with it, since the war has been going on for so long, there are few casualties, and now it is the demon king's truce, but those righteous people are unwilling, so if the war continues, I don't think it's the fault of one party."
Tang Huanxi said a lot later, Shan Xuan couldn't write them all down, and there were some things that Shan Xuan never thought of, for example, Tang Huanxi said that if you let immortal cultivators go to the place where the demons live to cultivate immortals, and the demons occupy the place where the aura is sufficient, I don't know if those immortal cultivators can put on a self-sacrificing face all day long.
Shan Xuan was later told by Tang Huanxi that she had a headache, and she went to the market to relax, and went to a crowded place to stop, and the traders, pedestrians, and tourists were unfamiliar faces one after another
Sometimes, when Shan Xuan sees others smiling at her, she will respond with a smile, but in such an environment, Shan Xuan still remembered the tree demon she met with Death Yin on the way out of the demon world after healing the spiritual penetration, the tree demon that was ruthlessly wiped out by Death Yin.
Thinking of the tree demon, Shan Xuan thought of Xiao You and Ah Wang at the foot of Taibai Mountain, the weak among the monsters, the fate of the half-demon was miserable, and there were also those like the seven in Peacock Ridge.
However, Shan Xuan knows better than anyone that he can protect the seven protectors of Peacock Ridge so well, except for the Demon King, no one should have such ability.
The memories are over, and when Shan Xuan looks at these people under the sun, she feels a little dull.
They are all living beings, each is an independent individual, why is it so unfair?
"It's getting dark, let's go back quickly!"
In fact, Tang Huanxi didn't want to waste too much time here, the later he went back to make the errand, the more he showed that his ability was not good, since he had been accepted by the dead, he naturally wanted to show himself well.
Shan Xuan didn't want to embarrass Tang Huanxi, although she didn't believe that Death Yin would really kill Tang Huanxi, but on the way back to Peacock Ridge, Shan Xuan still had to ask a few words that should be asked.
"Didn't you say we met in the Ruthless Pavilion? At that time, what mistakes did you make to be locked up there? ”
At the mention of this, Tang Huanxi was a little difficult to let go of now, "I sue you, you will definitely feel incredible... At that time, my brother and I went down the mountain to buy some things and met a monkey spirit. The brothers were in a hurry to show their feelings, and the monkey spirit screamed, and I relented and let the monkey spirit go, but the brothers thought I was a maverick, and I had an argument with me, and I injured them."
Hurt the same door, no wonder you will be locked up in the Ruthless Pavilion!
It's just that Shan Xuan never knew that there was such a situation, at that time, he went down the mountain with Wen Yuan Zhenren to practice, and when he saw the person he wanted to save, Shan Xuan saved it, and when he saw the monster Shan Xuan who didn't want to hurt, he would let it go.
Maybe this is really a one-person problem! Because the people around us are different, even if they live on the same land, everyone sees the world very differently.
"Then you approach me and the dead"
"I'll be honest with you." Without waiting for Shan Xuan to finish her question, Tang Huanxi said directly: "Just like me, give me ten dares, I don't dare to go to the demon king." ”
Hearing Tang Huanxi say this, Shan Xuan thought that he was going to reveal who was behind him!
However, Tang Huanxi continued: "But I don't know why, those things just ran into my head, and when I saw you, I approached with boldness, and I tried my best to restrain myself... Even I don't know why! ”
Tang Huanxi's strength is not high, if he is manipulated, I believe it is not difficult, but if that is the case, Tang Huanxi is too innocent.
After Tang Huanxi finished speaking, he saw that Shan Xuan was speechless, thinking that Shan Xuan didn't believe his words, and emphasized: "I'm serious, as soon as I saw you, I couldn't help but want to talk to you, and what I said... It was like it was imprinted in my head, and I couldn't control it at all. ”
Shan Xuan looked at Tang Huanxi's eagerness to explain, and said, "What about now?" ”
What now? Tang Huanxi was stunned for a moment and then shook his head, "Now there is no such feeling of being out of control, maybe my role is over!" ”
led Death Yin to the Candle Dragon's lair, and the people behind the scenes would definitely not have thought that Death Yin would come out alive!
Out of the bazaar, away from the crowd, Tang Huanxi clapped his hands and said in annoyance: "Oh, forgot to buy a horse?" ”
It is hundreds of kilometers away from Peacock Ridge, and I really don't know what year or month I will go to when I walk back on my legs.
When Tang Huanxi came over, he came over on the dead Spirit Ice Bird, there was no Spirit Ice Bird at this time, with his level, such a long way, and with a Shan Xuan, he could only ride back.
But after Tang Huanxi finished saying this, he suddenly thought of Shan Xuan's previous sudden appearance, "Actually, my foot speed is okay, you..."
Returning to Peacock Ridge from Anding County, the speed of the carriage was so fast, Tang Huanxi could follow him all the way to the place, Shan Xuan of course believed that Tang Huanxi's feet were not slow, but Shan Xuan didn't say that she had a magic sword and could resist the sword.
The consumption of fighting Shan Xuan against the candle dragon is too great, and the body heat has not recovered at this time, in case the sword is unstable, it is very dangerous.
"Let's ride a horse!" Shan Xuan Road.
She hasn't ridden a horse a few times yet! The previous trip to Anding County, riding a carriage was enough to suffer, and riding a horse would definitely be much better!
At the post station, I bought two horses at a high price, and the silver was naturally single.
It's just that Tang Huanxi grinded with the postman for a quarter of an hour in order to bargain, and in the end it was not cheap.
After waiting for the horse, Shan Xuan's riding skills were not very good, and the speed could make Tang Huanxi heartburn, so he couldn't wait to ride with Shan Xuan.
Of course, Tang Huanxi thought about it like that, and didn't even dare to mention it.
Shan Xuan rode the horse well, Tang Huanxi was a little absent-minded, Shan Xuan saw it and hurriedly explained: "I have returned to Peacock Ridge with you, are you still worried that the death will kill you?" ”
"It's not!" Tang Huanxi looked at Shan Xuan, "I suddenly thought that I didn't seem to know how to go to the demon world. ”
When Shan Xuan went back to Peacock Ridge, Tang Huanxi was going to give death to him, and he said that he had returned to the Demon King Palace. But Tang Huanxi didn't even know where the entrance to the demon world was, how could he enter the Demon King Palace!
Shan Xuan doesn't care about this problem even more, and she doesn't know better.
Fortunately, Tang Huanxi only said these two words, and then he didn't nag again, it is estimated that he wanted to send Shan Xuan to Peacock Ridge first, and then talk about the rest.
Perhaps this is the test that the Death Void has given him! After all, the demon king has to say a lot! The position of demon venerable is not so cheap to get.
Probably riding in a carriage is indeed much more comfortable than riding a horse, but Shan Xuan only rode a horse for a day, and the tender meat on the inner thigh was grinded.
Tang Huanxi was fine, eating and drinking on horseback, and thought that Shan Xuan was also very good, and he couldn't wait to leave overnight.
Only then did Shan Xuan believe what it meant to lift a stone and shoot herself in the foot, which was really bitter and unspeakable.
Of course, in the end, he stopped to rest, even if Tang Huanxi could travel overnight, Shan Xuan was unwilling, and he couldn't leave Shan Xuan on the road alone.
The fire was lit at night, and Tang Huanxi fell asleep on the grounds that he had to hurry tomorrow, and he had to keep his body.
Shan Xuan sat on the edge of the fire, bending her legs constantly, if she had been riding a horse, at her current speed, even if she came for two more days, she might not be able to go back to Peacock Ridge!
If that's the case, you might as well spend some mana!
Tang Huanxi fell asleep after a while, and his mouth was still talking in his dreams, at first Shan Xuan didn't hear what he said clearly, and when Tang Huanxi muttered four or five times, Shan Xuan heard that Tang Huanxi was actually screaming duck legs all the time.
Along the way, Shan Xuan didn't feel hungry, and barely ate except for drinking some water.
Tang Huanxi gnawed a lot of hard steamed buns, and it was normal to want to eat duck legs at this time.
On this day's contact, except for Tang Huanxi, who said some things that Shan Xuan was a little unacceptable, the others felt that Tang Huanxi was very frank and did not look like a scheming person.
If what Tang Huanxi said was true, and it was not his intention to guide the death of Yu Yin in Zhongshan, then he felt that he had a problem before, probably because of his feelings.
Fortunately, whether it was Death Yin or Shan Xuan, they had no losses, and the battle with the Candle Dragon did not cause irreparable damage, it was a knowledge and experience, not to mention that Shan Xuan also got half of the fire essence gifted by the Candle Dragon.
Shan Xuan sat all night, and when Tang Huanxi woke up in the morning, hot buns had been placed in front of him.
"Where did you get that?" Before Tang Huanxi woke up, his stomach began to gurgle, and when he smelled the fragrance of buns, of course he quickly picked them up.
"I just bought it at the market!" Shan Xuan said, and the person had already stood up.
In fact, Shan Xuan had just sat down not long ago, and she was worried that Tang Huanxi would run around if she woke up and couldn't see her, so she didn't delay too long when she went to buy steamed buns.
"Bazaar? Is there a market around here? Tang Huanxi bit the bun, wiped out half of it in two bites, his mouth was full, and he said vaguely: "I knew that there was a market, we should stay in the inn!" It doesn't seem to work, we don't have any money, tsk, I feel a little itchy on my body, maybe I have crawled insects..."
"Let's go!" Shan Xuan said, picking up the magic sword stuck in the ground.
At this time, the magic sword did not have too strong immortal energy, but the sword was red throughout, with a hollow on the sword body, and red gems inlaid with the handle, which was not extraordinary at first glance.
Tang Huanxi continued to eat the buns, glanced at the sword in Shan Xuan's hand, and then went to look for the horse, and when he looked around, he was dumbfounded, "What about the horse?" Alas, what about our horses? ”
Shan Xuan saw that Tang Huanxi was so excited that he didn't even eat the buns, scurrying around, and he didn't feel strange when he woke up and didn't hear the movement, "I let it go, we Imperial Sword..."
"Edgeworth?" Tang Huanxi heard Shan Xuan say this, and his attention naturally focused on the magic sword in Shan Xuan's hand again, "Your sword is...?" ”
"Magic Sword!" Shan Xuan didn't mean to hide it, "You... How to go? ”
"Of course you have to take me, I don't know how to resist the sword!"
"Got it!"
When Tang Huanxi finally filled his stomach, Shan Xuan took Tang Huanxi and set off.
Maybe Tang Huanxi was not used to a too high position, so he held Shan Xuan's sleeve and made Shan Xuan lower and lower.
After Shan Xuan did so, she had to cover the enchantment again, otherwise it would cause a commotion if she was seen by mortals.
Tang Huanxi breathed a sigh of relief, and began to complain that he had taken him on the Spirit Ice Bird before, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived at Zhongshan, and when he came down from the Spirit Ice Bird, both legs were weak, and it took a long time to crawl on the ground before he felt alive.
In his words, it is inevitable to say a few words that he didn't take care of.
Shan Xuan said: "Why are you not afraid of saying his words at this time, you will be heard by him?" ”
Tang Huan was taken aback, and sure enough, he obediently closed his mouth.
But Shan Xuan is Shan Xuan after all, and he takes too much care of Tang Huanxi, so the speed of the sword is very slow, and they arrived at Peacock Ridge almost at noon, Tang Huanxi was so hungry at that time that he couldn't do it, and asked Shan Xuan if he could accept him for a light meal in Peacock Ridge.
Before Shan Xuan could reply, she saw the abnormality of Peacock Ridge.
The enchantment that covers the outside of Peacock Ridge no longer exists, and Peacock Ridge is not only exposed, but also charred black.
Shan Xuan stopped in mid-air with Tang Huanxi's sword, and when he saw the Peacock Ridge, which had undergone a baptism of fire, he didn't have time to react.
In the end, Tang Huanxi said first: "Oh my God, what happened to this?" ”
Shan Xuan reacted at this time, collected the magic sword, and hurriedly rushed over, Liluan, Rachel, Yuerong, Bi Wei, Xiaochen, Youlin, Chu Kui, are they still alive?
The ashes under her feet no longer have a little temperature, and she doesn't know when Peacock Ridge experienced this fire, looking at the scorched black and the miserable corpses of countless small animals, Shan Xuan regretted very much at that moment that she had delayed so much time, maybe she would come back earlier, and there would be a chance to recover.
Tang Huanxi followed behind Shan Xuan, he hadn't seen how beautiful Peacock Ridge was before, so he didn't feel sorry to see Peacock Ridge turn into ashes at this time.
Just looking at what Shan Xuan was looking for everywhere, Tang Huanxi also wanted to help, "What are you looking for?" I'll help you! ”
Shan Xuan felt that the tip of her nose seemed to smell the smell of **burning, and her throat was a little bitter, "No need!" ”
There is really no need, almost when he stepped into this charred black land, Shan Xuan knew that there were no living creatures in this area.
