Chapter 286: Earth's Heart Fire

The first light of the morning reached the cell, depicting the dust slowly flying in the air like a dream, and the only sound of lotus seeds breathing in the quiet atmosphere was the shallow breath of lotus seeds.

When Yukisawa returned, she was still asleep, perhaps because she had been overthinking last night.

The doppelganger technique, Xue Ze felt that it was as practical as the technique of the Five Elements, and it could be regarded as the spell she used the most in the palace with complicated human eyes.

While Lianzi didn't wake up, Xue Ze remembered the words of the two senior brothers, and then quietly looked at every inch of bricks and tiles and every thatch in the cell.

"He Yu put things in so quickly?"

After searching for it a few times, Yukisawa didn't find anything strange, but waited for the jailer to deliver the food.

"Get up and eat!"

A low and hoarse male voice came, and Lianzi suddenly woke up in her sleep, she was still having a dream about Fengxing just now.

Yukisawa stood there expressionless, watching the jailer hand in the food.

On the ground is a pot of tea, a bowl of steamed buns and a plate of side dishes, which are as simple and light as fasting rice, which is also in line with the current treatment of Xue Concubine.

Lianzi yawned, got up and walked to Xue Ze's side, looking at the food on the ground and shocked: "Hey, it's so simple?"

Xue Ze nodded slightly, and replied helplessly: "Yes!"

"Should I scold them?" Hasuko recalled her identity, and quickly ran to the door, grabbing the iron door and pushing it. "You people, you actually give Xue Concubine these food, do you want to die?"

The jailer walked a few steps, glanced back at the lotus seed with contempt, and muttered a few sarcastic words and walked away.

Lianzi still shouted loudly until she heard a familiar voice: Stop shouting!

"Someone, someone?" said Lianzi, startled, and asked in a loud voice.

"Yes, I'm about ten feet away from you!"

Yukisawa walked over in surprise and smiled at each other's eyes. It was the voice of singing and laughing, but he didn't seem to have much energy, and his voice was not as full and energetic, high-pitched and clear as usual, but a little hoarse and lazy.

"When is Princess Lianghua coming?" Xue Ze said, handing over the matter of questioning to Lianzi. She crouched down, took the food to the light, and looked and sniffed and sniffed.

The conversation between Lianzi and Gexiao went back and forth a few times, and the general situation was already clear.

It turned out that Gexiao was not here before, because the Queen Mother sent Lianghua out of the palace to pray for blessings, and Gexiao was transferred here overnight. Renzi was about to come over to reply, but she heard Xue Ze suddenly say to her: Let the prince of song and laughter not eat!

"Senior sister, this... Is there a problem with this?" said Lianzi, frightened and angry.

Yukisawa nodded and walked over to Lotus Seed. "Be tactful, don't let others find out!"

"That's... What, Prince Gexiao, are you still there?" Renko shouted nervously, tapping on the door of her cell.

There was a burst of laughter in the distance, "Why am I not here?" I was pulled here last night, and you cursed me like this before I could say hello to you?"

"No! I... You, you ......" Lianzi stopped talking, turned her head and asked Xue Ze: "Senior sister, how can you express it euphemistically? Those jailers are standing around the corner when they hear the voice!"

Xue Ze tore the steamed bun to pieces, her fingernails turned gray-black in the sun, and she whispered: "You just say that this steamed bun is unpalatable, and you have to break it into pieces before you can swallow it, and this water is dirty and smelly, so you can only use it to wash your hands!"

"Lianzi, what's wrong with you? But your master has something to say?"

"No... No, we're talking about these jailers!" Lianzi paused, looked at the people in the distance, and said dissatisfiedly: "Some people are really dog-eyed, and they actually treat the emperor's favorite concubine like this!

Ge Xiao let out a low laugh, "That's eyeless, how can you say that they are dogs? Dogs are so loyal and cute!"

"That's right, but you can't laugh at me for being a shallow learner, I'm particular about eating!" Lianzi was stunned for a moment, watching the jailer walk away boredly, and then continued: "This steamed bun is like a stone, do you know how to eat it without a sore throat? This water is dirty and smelly, do you know what it is used for?"

Gexiao was stunned for a moment, "I want to hear it!"

"If you break these steamed buns and tear them apart with your fingers, you will be regarded as an abominable enemy to eat! Especially the hands, they are like the flesh and blood of the enemy when they are stained with crumbs, you must feel it!"

"That's interesting! So, what about the water?"

"You do it first, and then go under the sun and see the water! It's so dirty and smelly, you have to wash your hands, and we'll wash your hands! If you see the difference in your hands, then let's experience the joy of dropping the can with us!"

"This?"

After Lianzi finished speaking, she took the clay pot handed by Xue Ze and slammed it to the ground. "Prince Songxiao, did you do it? Did you see the flesh and blood of the enemy? Wash your hands? Don't drink it!"

Gexiao was silent for a long time, and finally made the sound of the clay pot breaking.

"The girl's method is really happy under it, but it is indeed different in the hand. Teachable!"

As early as the early hours of the morning, Yukisawa sensed the summoning technique and hurried to the altar. Lan Shui and Ji Lin are back, and the two of them are waiting for Xue Ze with Mu Fan, wanting to do something on a moonlit night.

Unfolding the scroll, there were a lot more red bits and pieces, and the three of them must have studied the scroll again. Xue Ze knew in her heart, she knew that the three of them were eager to find the white jade ice crystal, but how could it be so easy?

"You think you know everything about the Taimiao, but who can ensure that nothing goes wrong? The Fire Demon and the Queen Mother are both thoughtful people, so they are naturally thoughtful, and although the timing is good now, they owe a lot of necessary conditions!"

After hearing this, Lan Shui pondered for a long time and said slowly: "Although we don't know everything, we know a lot now. If we wait, I'm afraid we won't be able to understand it deeply, and we can only try it ourselves! If you are worried a lot, Senior Sister, I can go and test it first to see what mechanism is in this temple!"

"I think Senior Brother is right, I'm afraid I can't wait for the second time now! The fire demon is seriously injured, and the Queen Mother is in a state of urgency, and everyone in the harem is paying attention to the matter of Dongjiao Lake. If you don't try it, how do you know what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?"

Mu Fan looked at Xue Ze, he knew best how to observe words and emotions and ease the atmosphere, such a contradictory situation naturally required him to come forward.

"The two senior brothers are right, but the consideration of the Heavenly Maiden is also extremely important. If we are alarmed, it may be more difficult and put us in a more passive situation. If you are not completely sure, you really can't be impulsive in this matter! After all, mortals' minds are extremely complex, let alone this demon who has lived for 10,000 years!"

Xue Ze nodded and smiled softly at Mu Fan. If I hadn't been in the palace for so long, I might have agreed with the practice of breaking into the Taimiao, after all, there are very few things to get a celestial maiden. However, it is precisely because of these ideas that we need to think more carefully about how the other party will design and hinder them. For example, he knew that the Ice Crystal Bracelet could sense ice crystals, so he set up a lot of enchantments and interferences here to destroy them!

"Senior sister, do you mean that he has done a lot of defenses in the Taimiao? There are very few strange things in this world that can stop the Heavenly Maiden, could it be that the Fire Demon has really found a way to restrain you?" Ji Lin asked curiously.

Lan Shui looked at Xue Ze, a trace of worry drifting through his eyes. In this world, there is no absolute law, only the power of continuous superposition and strengthening, and many things will slowly change. The Celestial Maiden seems to be a strong person who restrains the fire demon, but in fact, there are many weaknesses like the fire demon, and these will be infinitely magnified by people! Master once said that the Celestial Maiden can freely enter and exit thousands of worlds, but she is afraid of only one thing!"

Ji Lin was taken aback, and was about to wait for someone to say a conclusion, but the three of them were just silent with low eyebrows, sad and worried, and it seemed that everyone knew the weakness of the Heavenly Maiden. "You... What are you?"

"Earth's Heart Fire!" Mu Fan whispered.

Ji Lin suddenly realized, laughed awkwardly, and sighed again and again: "Oh, this! We are all afraid of this! I thought it was something, it turned out to be the fire in the center of the earth!"

"Don't underestimate the fire in the center of the earth!" Lan Shui collected a few small pieces of paper on the scroll, showing the largest and most complete distribution map on the bottom surface. "Taimiao is located in the center of Beihua, facing the red star, and it is perhaps the hottest place in Mu Fan's hexagrams. If the fire in the center of the earth is not very far away, then it can be led to this place by the fire demon. Senior sister guessed that there was something extraordinary in this, and she must be thinking about this, which happened to be in line with the fire demon's mind, but I was negligent on my part!"

"Not only Senior Brother, Mu Fan has been here for many years, and he has never considered this. In short, he underestimated the fire demon, but he didn't expect that his shallow demon body cultivation could also guide the fire in the heart of the earth, and it seems that this calamity didn't hurt him much!"

Ji Lin frowned and was indignant. "So, it's useless for me to exchange my life? He is a fire demon, and fire control is naturally an expert, why do you want to praise him? No matter how advanced this earth-centered fire is, it is also a mortal thing, and if you don't touch it, it will be fine, can it really make you fearful?"

Lan Shui looked at Ji Lin coldly, and said solemnly: "You can get carried away after doing a good deed? The fact that the Fire Demon can cultivate into an immortal body and control the fire in the heart of the earth shows that he has a deep relationship with the Demon Clan, and may be a major minister of the Demon Clan! It is a matter of Tianshan, how can it be a child's play? What is fear, you can't do great things with courage and perseverance, you should learn from the care and prudence of your junior sister!"

Ji Lin looked at Lan Shui dissatisfied, and was about to get back something but was stopped by Mu Fan.

Xue Ze smiled slightly, "Don't care, my carefulness has only recently been practiced, Fanchen is really a place to train people! This palace's smart way of doing things is to do it as soon as possible, only when they are completely sure, they will thoroughly show their minds and use tricks, they will not take risks before this, and there is a way back everywhere! I think, we should also learn this!"
