The alarm bell in his heart rang suddenly, and Mu Wan instinctively took a step back. This can't be blamed on her, when a person is threatened with death in a short period of time, except for being a parent, no one will subconsciously protect anyone. Even lovers who love each other deeply can sometimes struggle with the sense of survival.

Shan Hai's reaction was a little slower, and he couldn't guess what the Immortal Moon Monarch was going to do. But he quickly told them the answer with his actions—he suddenly grabbed Kapok's neck and lifted her up with ease.

The crowd was taken aback. Although Kapok probably no longer relies on the trachea to breathe, this action still symbolizes that life will be threatened. They wanted to stop him, especially Mu Wan recently, and even though he knew that the umbrella might no longer work, he resolutely pulled it out. But the Immortal Moon Monarch flashed backwards and hugged the kapok horizontally, as if she was as light as a ball of cotton. This time he turned around and appeared behind the mountains and seas. As soon as he turned around, the Immortal Moon Monarch was even farther away.

"I advise you not to come with me." Immortal Moon Jun smiled and said, "If you don't come, she can still live." ”

Mu Wan turned around and ran towards him, but he had already disappeared into the hazy miasma. The situation became anxious, and Dai Luan stamped her feet eagerly, pointed in the direction they had left, and said:

"We have to save her!"

"How can I save it?" Ruyuejun asked lightly, "That kid shouldn't have anything to do with you." ”

"No, it matters, it matters!" Mu Wan clenched his fist on his left and an umbrella on his right, "That kid also saved my life back then, and I can't let her have an accident." ”

Unexpectedly, the mountains and seas are unusually calm. His face did show concern, but he just said it.

"Why did he hold the Kapok girl hostage...... And not any one of us. If he didn't make a move on me and Ah Luan, he might be worried about the existence of Ruyuejun, but Liang Qiu was very close to him. Looking at the force, she could even break her umbrella easily. But why didn't it happen? Ruyue-kun, what do you think? ”

"I ...... Didn't know the person very well. But I bet he said if he didn't let you go, he better not go. There is the Imperial Palace. Although it is also Zhongpingmen, Jingmen was imprisoned in autumn and died in winter, and you can't go back to this world. ”

Dai Luan glanced in the direction she had come, and the melancholy, adult-like melancholy, appeared on her face again.

"We can't go yet...... Shi Wuqi hasn't caught up yet, and Ah Qi's whereabouts are unknown. ”

Ruyuejun looked a little helpless: "This is really ...... Well, I can't weigh the pros and cons for you. It's just that I'll make it clear first, out of Xun Palace, the time of this life will be extended a little, and I don't know what about the Jiang girl in Kan Palace. And the palace is further southwest to the Kun Palace, and the Kun Palace is the door of death. ”

"We won't go any further. Only chased to the palace and did everything we could to save her. If we go further into dangerous places, we will ...... There's nothing to be done. ”

Shanhai's intention in saying this was to explain to Ruyuejun on the one hand, and to appease Mu Wan's emotions on the other hand. But Ruyuejun didn't change much, but the latter was more anxious. Mu Wan said:

"There's no time to delay, I'll go first."

She hurriedly ran over, Dai Luan wanted to chase, and glanced back at Ruyuejun, seeing that she didn't mean to follow, she sighed with some regret, and also chased after Mu Wan. Shanhai followed, and Ruyuejun suddenly called out to him.

"Rin is long and slow. I'll give you one last word. I am here to appease the order that the Lord of the Hundred Bones had disturbed earlier. The Desolate Skeleton did return to the seal of the Middle Palace, but three of the Eight Gates had already been disturbed, and if something happened again, it would cause chaos again. When the time comes, although he will not be difficult for us to be impermanent, he will inevitably have murderous intent towards you. ”

“…… Thank you for the reminder and keep it in mind. We try not to make any noise. I'm sorry about the previous incident. ”

"I don't blame you. Go for it. ”

With that, Ruyuejun turned around and left first. Rin Shanhai saw her walk a few steps, and turned to chase the two girls. The three of them ran all the way to the palace. Jingmen is easy to move his tongue, and there are often bloody disasters. Rin Shanhai, who is well versed in the principles of the Nine Palaces and Eight Gates, expects to a considerable extent that these things don't really happen.

Although the three of them did not act separately, they also looked in three directions, watching and listening to all directions. The mountains and seas walked in the middle, and Dai Luan and Mu Wan looked left and right respectively, paying attention to their feet while being alert to everything around them. They shouted occasionally, but no one responded, only a miasma that permeated them. Dai Luan felt a tightness in her chest and shortness of breath, and almost fell into the mud. Shanhai reminded them to drink the medicine, and it was only after that the symptoms of several people were relieved. On the way, they noticed that there was no driftwood at all in this place compared to before, perhaps because it was facing the Xiumen when they came, and it was the farthest away from the "Taoyuan" of the year.

After walking for a while, Mu Wan saw something faintly revealing its outline in the depths of the swamp.

"Who's there!"

She let out a loud shout, and both looked over. The miasma seems to be thinner, or perhaps the shadow is getting closer, and the appearance is gradually becoming clearer.

There was a raised stone in the middle of the swamp, and the Immortal Moon Monarch stood upright. He pinched Kapok's arm with one hand, and she stepped on the edge of the stone in a very dangerous position, and as long as Immortal Moon Jun let go, she would definitely fall.

She probably wanted to shout something—but it didn't work. Her face was already distinctly lined with trees, and her mouth was like a furrow smashed into the trunk of a tree. But the ditch had begun to heal, leaving traces of dryness and cracking. She couldn't make a sound, and she was so stiff that she couldn't make a move.

She probably wanted to shout, or maybe she didn't want to make a sound, and wanted to get them to leave, but no one could guess what she was trying to say. Shanhai couldn't see anything on her face, but she seemed to feel that under the wooden shell, her trapped soul let out a sharp cry, hoarse.

"Well, I guess you're coming."

"Let go."

Ignoring the untimely sweetness in his tone, Shanhai pulled down his face.

"Why don't you understand what I mean? Am I talking that unhuman? ”

As if amused by his own statement, the Immortal Moon let out a creepy chuckle. Shanhai knew that his apprentice and friend must be angry, and he wanted to rush up and tear open the grinning mouth. But he was surprisingly calm, perhaps out of anger. He took a deep breath and repeated.

"I said let them go."

"Why? Let me make it clear, as long as you don't chase her, she won't die. It was you who broke the rules first, and even if she died, she couldn't blame me. He leaned his face closer to Kapok, Kapok's eyes turned a little frightened, but he couldn't get out of control, "I don't like to kill...... I like to borrow other people's hands and watch you kill. ”

This statement may imply more than them, not only Tang He, or even more than Saki Mianlang. His style has been like this since the day he was born, and there is no need to guess. Mu Wan and the others, the others who interacted with him, could easily think about his style, but never knew why. He was born the opposite of good, and the Lord used him to a considerable extent, only because of his actual personal abilities and a damn part of his ideas that resembled him.

"No one should obey your bullshit rules!" Dai Luan scolded, "Give her back!" To kill is to kill, and to make fewer high-sounding excuses! ”

Immortal Moon Jun raised his eyebrows defiantly.

"Also? Is this your stuff? He sneered, "I still need to make excuses for killing people in the long night?" Since you think I need it, I'll find you one now—it's not killing, it's just killing a piece of wood. ”

Immortal Moon Jun let go of his hand.

Mu Wan was about to rush up, but was grabbed by Shanhai by the side shoulder. He was so hard that his shoulder ached, but he managed to stop his movements. In this way, the kapok fell into the swamp and was slowly swallowed by the mud. It was a long silence, no struggle, no shouting, but it was suffocating. It was not a person, a monster, a tree, it was just a piece of wood, and it was just a piece of wood.

Before the kapok could sink completely, the "hand" that resembled the acceptance of the Bodhi string by Humen stretched out again. But it wasn't mud, it was fire—two high, twisted red flames burst out of the swamp and hugged her tightly. Even at the edge of her body coming into contact with the mud, a small fire slowly ignited. It's a kind of torment, putting the body on a simmer and slowly tormenting. Does wood hurt? They don't know. But the soul must have.

More fires erupted from the swamp. The heat wave brought up the hem of Immortal Moon's clothes and long hair, and in front of the scorching red background, the youkai reminded them once again that this was a youkai, and it would always be a youkai. The shadow fell on them, causing all three of them to involuntarily take a few steps back, adding a layer of wonder to grief and anger, and the fear of the living creature's instinct for fire.

Jingmen belongs to fire.

Wood makes a fire.

Mu Wan suddenly remembered the two words that Immortal Moon Jun had said before-sacrifice.

It wasn't a sacrifice to the Skeletons...... It's for him. She felt an indescribable sense of fear and powerlessness as if all of this had been expected by him, including but not limited to the fact that they would catch up with Kapok.

"That's what it is...... Your purpose? Dai Luan's voice trembled, I don't know if it was fear or anger, or both, "So you can trick us all?" ”

"Not really, well......"

The miasma was dispersed by the flames, and the air became much purer, but a little of the swamp was ignited, and the whole swamp burned with red spray. The burning sensation made their cheeks hot, and there was more fiery emotion in them. The initiator, on the other hand, rolled his eyes seemingly innocently, pointed his index finger to his lips, and thought for a moment.

"So far, I'm in control. Alas, I know you humans too well, that's a good guess. I didn't expect to kill those two, but I was prepared to some extent...... Well, isn't it all going well? ”

The feeling of the demon power returning to his body was like a long drought and dew, and the Immortal Moon Monarch was a little too happy, and the flower in the center of his eyebrows seemed to be so vivid, and the demon patterns that spread out made that beautiful face quite broken. He spun around, feeling the touch of his arm skimming the flames, like a stranded fish thrown back into the water. It's just that now it looks like three innocent humans struggling in the fishing nets.

"What the hell do you want to do?!" Mu Wan almost roared.

In contrast, the mountains and seas seem too calm.

“…… But three of the eight gates have been disturbed. He muttered softly.

"What?" Mu Wan didn't seem to hear clearly.

"Don't act rashly."

"No way!"

Mu Wan was not the preemptive strike when she said this—she used her umbrella as a shield to block the fireball that the Immortal Moon Monarch had struck. Ye Yinlu's own workmanship is different from that of ordinary umbrellas, and the attack can be blocked to a certain extent, but it will never be too long.

"Only I have the weapons against him. Don't let me hold you back, run to the open. ”

Dai Luan knew that it was useless for her to be in a hurry. The Jingmen of the fire phase should be the same as before, even if there are Yin soldiers here, there will be no weapons, they are all metal, restrained by fire.

Mu Wan didn't use an umbrella to take the initiative to attack him, but just blocked him step by step. He attacked, with a ferocious fire behind him. Suddenly, a strange flame burned in the swamp like a closed lotus, enveloping a large area. Shanhai pulled Ah Luan's back collar to dodge and fell heavily to the ground. The two could only see strange shadows from the fire curtain, distorted, deformed, and indistinguishable from friend and foe.

The fire burned too fiercely.
