The royal city of Yavati is about two hundred miles away from our beach station.

Located at the foot of a smoky volcano all year round, hundreds of thatched huts scattered through the jungle and a wooden and stone temple make up the entire royal city.

Therefore, it is named the national capital, at best, it is the scale of a village with the same surname in the mountains and fields south of the Yangtze River in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

When the country was built by whom, Brother Lin and they don't know.

However, judging from the name of the country, it seems to have some inexplicable origins with Brahmanism and Buddhism.

Perhaps in some year or month, missionaries from the Tianzhu Buddha Kingdom inadvertently set foot on this wild land.

Since then, the state has been established after educating sentient beings with the Dharma and the Vedas, and gathering millions of aboriginal believers.

Dharma monks and Brahmin priests have also been transformed into kings of the land, agents of the divine realm and the mortal world, like the Anandu priests of the Northern Celestial Drali tribe.

Half a month after landing, the accumulated storage of meat supplies was enough for everyone for several months, and the daily hunting and gathering activities stopped.

After arranging the affairs of the boat and the camp, the elder brother of Lin Jinxiang took our master and servant and a few personal companions to start a trip around the island of Yevati country.

Traveling around the world, traveling in the mountains and rivers, the days are free and happy.

There is no wine shop Gefang commercial street market in Wangcheng, and the residents are drinking blood and Hongmeng is in full bloom, and there is no fun at all.

Brother Lin exchanged a few pieces of cotton cloth for two fat pigs from the natives, and led me to worship the mountain.

"Three brothers, there is no prosperous market in this Yavati country, but this thousand-year-old earth fire god mountain is unique in the world! Today, as a brother, I will take you to see and see! Hahaha! ”

The smoky peaks in front of them reached into the sky, and a gray-white path stretched through the reckless forest sea towards the top of the mountain.

Brother Lin pointed at Yun Feng and laughed at me, Qin Chong, Guo Helmet and Lin He followed closely with live pigs, and they were already sweating profusely.

"Lin Dongjia, what is the use of carrying this living creature up the mountain? Wouldn't it be better to slaughter it and then put it on your back? ”

The fat pig kicked and hummed all the way, and everyone was overwhelmed, and the pot helmet couldn't help but ask Brother Lin depressedly.

"Brother Pot Helmet! On the top of the mountain, barbecue and wine, the wild lady is waiting for us! Hurry up and keep up! ”

Although Qin Chong hated to draw his sword to give the boar a breakthrough, he still couldn't help but joke with Liu Zhen'er.

"Two virtuous brothers! It has been said that the entrance to hell on earth is at the top of the mountain, and every 100 years the earth's fire erupts to cleanse the world of evil! Therefore, there is an unwritten rule, but all the merchant ships that pass through the country of Yavati will prepare living creatures to come to worship the mountain, which is said to be able to eliminate disasters and avoid disasters and escape bad luck! ”

Seeing this, Brother Lin quickly stopped at the side of the road and told us about the ancient legend of this place.

The men who had already accompanied him stepped forward and temporarily replaced Qin Chong and Liu Zhen'er, who were unbearable.

"So that's what happened! Hehe! Young master, I have had bad luck in recent years, do you want to prepare a few mountain boars to come and sacrifice! ”

After listening to Brother Lin's introduction, Qin Chong and Guo Helmet both sang a Buddhist verse with their palms together at the top of the mountain.

The killings of Rome back then have become a burden that the three of us can't shake off.

I have seen the Wolf Goddess Mountain in the east and west of the river, and the "Mother of Ten Thousand Mountains" on the Green Ridge Ice Field, but this is the first time I have encountered this sacred mountain that smokes all year round and breathes fire at every turn.

In addition, we are all devout Buddhists and have always believed in karma.

Therefore, Brother Lin's theory of hell still caused Qin Chong to panic.

"No need! Two living creatures worship the mountain is enough! The heart knows itself, don't worry about it! Hahaha! ”

Brother Lin happily explained, and led the way forward with a wooden stick.

After walking for more than two hours, we finally came to the top of the mountain, and the scenery of the island country below the mountain was in full view.

As Brother Lin said before, countless islands of all sizes are like dark green pearls, distributed in the vast and boundless sea.

There are no fireworks in the world, there is no vertical and horizontal Qianmo, rainforests and river networks cover the entire continent, everything is the appearance left by Pangu when he opened the sky.

The sinkhole at the top of the mountain was bottomless, and puffs of smoke came out of it, and the smell of sulfur was everywhere, and our breathing suddenly became embarrassed.

At the bottom of the sinkhole, you can faintly see the crimson magma rolling and boiling, and there is a great momentum to soar into the sky in an instant.

Untie the fat pig and paste it with the transfer talisman invited from the Tianzhu Buddha Kingdom.

Then the sacrifice began, and everyone knelt around the sinkhole to pray, praying for God's blessing to turn evil into good fortune on the sea and return to their homeland as soon as possible.

With a few undulating wails, the boar as a sacrifice has been pushed into the sinkhole.

Such a method of sacrifice reminds me of the Tianlu girl and the annual female sacrifice ceremony on the Green Ridge Ice Field.

couldn't help but feel sad from it, a few sad tears came out of her eyes, and the beauty was gone!

After the sacrifice, everyone bowed to the sinkhole again, and then embarked on the way back from the mountain.

At this moment, there was a sudden roaring thunder from the top of the mountain.

As far as the eye could see, I saw black smoke gathering and churning above the sinkhole, like a dragon with wings flapping and flying into the sky.

"Brothers, run! The Earth Dragon is furious! ”

Seeing the scene, Brother Lin's face changed suddenly, he opened his throat and shouted loudly, and the leader rushed towards the bottom of the mountain.

There was a rustling sound in the four fields between the words, the sky and the earth suddenly disappeared, and the hair of each of us was already covered with a layer of gray-white floating dust.

"Brother Lin! What is the wrath of the earth dragon? ”

I struggled to catch up with Brother Lin and asked, the burnt smell of realgar everywhere made it impossible to breathe.

"Yama is furious! The end of the day I am waiting for is coming! ”

Brother Lin didn't look back and just ran, he had been sailing and walking between these islands for decades, and he had already seen the power of earth fire magma, so his face was full of fear.

My heart was shocked, and I immediately felt ashamed and unbearable, and I hated to die by hitting the mountain.

In this life and this life, what kind of immortal has I Yi Jincheng offended, and I have become such an ominous person! Wherever you go, unprovoked disasters will follow!

Not to mention the suffering of one's own family, it will also affect so many innocent people around him.

Since he looks down on life and death, he has nothing to fear.

I stopped and jumped onto the rocks by the roadside, wanting to see for myself what the eruption of the volcano looked like.

"Brother Xian! What are you going to do? ”

See I stopped

Footsteps, Brother Lin jumped in front of him and shouted wildly.

"Hahaha! Big brother, leave me alone! Such a peerless spectacle of fire in the sky is fortunate to be encountered in this life, and it is a pity to run away without taking a look! ”

I laughed altogether, though it was foolish not to be afraid.

"Virtuous brother! It's all burning eyebrows, and you're still so pretentious! Have you seen the avalanche on the Green Ridge Ice Field? Ay! ”

Brother Lin didn't explain anymore, and rushed all the way down the mountain with his own plan.

Qin Chong and the pot helmet jumped onto the mountain rock almost at the same time, and they couldn't help but wrap themselves around me, and caught up with Brother Lin and them along the way they came.

After more than two hours of running wildly, everyone finally came to the foot of the sacred mountain, and they had all become the end of the crossbow, and they had no energy.

At this time, the royal city of Yepoti had already become a pot of boiling gruel, and the indigenous wild people helped the old and the young in a panic.

When the end of the world comes, everyone hopes to be the last survivor and escape the sea of suffering in front of them.

"Brother Xian! After a while, the fire will break out, and you must not run towards the jungle! The magma cracked and poured for thousands of miles, and once the jungle was blocked, there was no possibility of survival! ”

Brother Lin's clothes were already soaked, and he wiped the dust off his face, panting and teaching the three of us a good way.

"Run along the river! Run on the empty wilderness! Run towards the beachhead of the sea! Don't ask about the southeast and northwest, just run wild! If you stay away from the fire, you will have a life! ”

Lin He and another guy picked up Brother Lin, and he clapped his hands and gave the final escape order.

Everyone got back on the road, following the intermittent forest trail, all the way to the distant coast.

Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and the lava beneath us roared and tumbled like a boiling spring, as if it was about to erupt from under our feet at any moment.

But on the hill we had just left, a fiery dragon had soared into the sky.

The rain of fire fell from the sky, and the huge lonely peak forest was instantly shrouded in a sea of fire.

The blazing magma caused endless wildfires, leaving no grass growing everywhere they went, threatening to drive all living beings into the sea.

In the face of the impermanence of heaven and earth, all living beings have no power to parry, only to rush and run for their lives.

The rest of life or death can only be left to the merciful God for the final verdict.

I don't know how many hours it took before the roar of the magma burst slowly faded away, and everyone was paralyzed on the field like mud.

An overwhelming rainstorm was fortunate to arrive, washing away the dust from our bodies and extinguishing the raging fire.

Looking back in the rain, a chill rushed to my head.

The roaring earthfire magma, blocked by the riverbed in the forest, finally stopped the pace of wanton killing, and flickered a little spark in the wind and rain.

And the closest distance to us is only a stone's throw away.

Amitabha! If it weren't for the Buddha's protection, we would be a pile of dry bones in the boiling rock.

And in the distance, the earth fire god mountain, the maroon magma is still rolling, and the black clouds are still rising.

The bare Lone Peak seems to be much higher than yesterday.
