Chapter 44: The Realm of Unkarmic Fire

"We're in the underworld," Xiao Shui affirmed. I don't know if I will meet the Emperor of Hades.

"What" Guo'er was caught off guard by this answer, and his eyes were sideways, and he stuck his waist, "What are you kidding?" ”

"Really" Xiao Shui pointed around seriously, "You see, there are no uninhabited houses or plants around, not where you are in the underworld", and sat on the ground decadently, no wonder there was no one after walking for so long.

"How can there be sunrise and sunset in the underworld, and the moon rises and the stars are full," Guo'er said seriously.

Xiaoshui decisively admitted his mistake: "Okay, it's me talking nonsense, but it's true that you can't get to the end no matter how you go, there must be something weird"

Guo'er lay on the ground, her ears on the ground, and Xiao Shui stepped forward and said, "How is it?" ”

Guo'er cried out "wow" and "we can't get out"

Xiao Shui was frightened by this inexplicable cry, and wondered: "What's wrong?" ”

Guo'er was still crying and slurred, "We have reached the underworld"

"What are you kidding, I just said nonsense, don't take it seriously" Xiaoshui comforted Guo'er, wiped his tears with his sleeve, and comforted: "Isn't it just that I can't feel people yet, what is it, let's go with Edgeworth, I'm almost fine" Saying that, calling the sword on his body, Edgeworth is the most physically demanding, but flying a hundred and ten miles should not be a problem, the most important thing is to leave this strange place first

The sword swayed and flew in the air, and it fell more than ten meters after a while, and flew out of the distance for a while, Guo'er hooked Xiaoshui's hair with tears, so as not to fall, Xiaoshui smiled awkwardly: "The scenery is different from near and far, don't cry"

Guo'er put away her tears at this time, Xiaoshui looked at the distance, I don't know how many hundred miles away, there was a faint light, and she screamed in surprise and patted Guo'er and said: "Look, is that a city, there is light"

Guo'er sniffed, pricked up his ears, and said: "It seems to be."

"Then hurry up," Xiao Shui happily rushed towards the bright place.

"Come on" Guo'er stood on the head of the small water again, the excited commander.

Xiao Shui exerted all his strength to be faster than this speed, but it is no problem to fly for dozens of miles, wait until there are people and then stop and walk for a while, it is important to get out of this no man's land first, seeing that the light in front of him is getting bigger and bigger, and even the burning sensation is getting heavier and heavier, Xiao Shui is puzzled: "This is too strange for the people of the imperial country, this is such a hot place to build a capital, not afraid of the sun, no wonder the more you go, the more barren it is."

But looking at the light getting closer and closer, but how can it look more and more like a beating flame, so strange, it will still beat, and look sideways at the fruit, "How can it look more and more like a fire?"

Guo'er wiped the sweat on her body and stuck out her tongue and said, "It's so hot."

"Whew" Xiaoshui also shook off the sweat on her face, she was no better than Guo'er, she was soaked, sweat dripping in her eyes, she couldn't open her eyes in pain, her clothes were still dripping, she couldn't walk, Xiaoshui stopped in mid-air, and admired; "The people of Taiyu are really powerful, and they are not afraid of such heat"

"It's too hot"

"Let's rest for a while, I can't walk" Xiao Shui twisted the water on his clothes, sweating on the stone, making a "stabbing" sound, glad that he knew how to be able to keep the sword, this has to walk underground, and it will not be roasted.

"What should I do, it's too hot, if we get to the imperial capital, we won't be roasted," Guo'er wilted.

"Let's go, the more you delay, the hotter it gets" Xiaoshui gritted his teeth and flew out dozens of meters away, and at the same time, the burning sensation became heavier and heavier, the white fox fur on Guo'er's body was a little black, and the sweat fell into his eyes, and he didn't have time to wipe it, so he just like that, he could see that the light in front of him was getting bigger and bigger, but it was a little bad, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like a dancing flame.

"Let's go" Guo'er rubbed the burnt hair on his body, it was scorching just now, and the sweat on his body was like rain, this sweat was gone, and the moisture on his body was burned dry, and he couldn't help but admire the Taiyu people even more, if they did bad things, they would definitely not be afraid of being fried in the oil pot.

"Go" Xiaoshui gritted his teeth, trembling and could only fly more than ten meters. After a long flight, the physical strength could not keep up and fell more than ten meters. Almost fell. Xiao Shui controlled the sword to go up a little higher, and the lower it went, the hotter it became.

Unexpectedly, there was a "whew" sound, and a fire began to break out all around.

Xiao Shui was instantly placed in the sea of fire, jumping on the sword, and couldn't get out, the fox fur on Guo'er's body was instantly burned, turning into a black fox, shouting: "Scald, scalded"

"What's going on" Xiao Shui controlled the sword not to be thrown down, there was a raging fire on all sides, and he flew up hard, trying to maintain a safe height, constantly burning higher and higher, and the fire also burned up, Xiao Shui used the fire repellent technique, and it was still hot.

Guo'er's whole body was scorched black, revealing her white teeth, and she shouted: "I don't know, this is the Flame Mountain, get out"

"No, I can only rush out" Xiao Shui controlled the sword, and rose more than ten meters higher, which was already her limit, her face had begun to sweat, and the burning sensation under her body was slightly better.

Guo'er shouted: "You are crazy" Seeing the endless sea of fire in front of him, there must be more than ten miles ahead, they are still in the outermost part, and if they go inside, they will be sent to death.

"There's no way, this is a fireless fire" Xiaoshui suddenly remembered that he had heard Sang Ma say before, about a few hundred years ago, the four countries of the human world were oasis waters everywhere, and one day a fire fell from the sky, which seemed to have fallen to the Taiyu country, the fire water could not be extinguished, and the soil cover could not be extinguished, so it burned for three years, burned all the grass and trees, and the river dried up, so after three years, it suddenly rained heavily and extinguished the fire, but it also hurt the root of the vegetation of the Taiyu country, after the fire was extinguished, only a few places can still grow grass and trees, And the disciples of Shushan know the origin of the fire best, the Nine Heavens and the Demon Clan's war, the Demon Zun used the unemployed fire to burn many heavenly soldiers and generals, and many unemployed fires fell into the world, after the war, the Emperor of Heaven took the water of the Spirit River to extinguish the fire, but at that time, the Nine Heavens had no flower soul, and the unemployed fire was not an ordinary fire, and the water of the Spirit River was also facing depletion, and taking part of the river water could only extinguish the fire, but it could not save the grass and trees.

If you didn't guess wrong, the place where they are now is the place where the unemployed fire fell, as for why there is no one on the map, because this place is no longer inhabitable, it was drawn out, and she and Phantom Mei came here along the cliff, and it didn't spread so widely back then, and it is estimated that it was also because of the cliff that blocked it.

Unexpectedly, hundreds of years have passed, and it is still there, the reason why it is not obvious is that it is estimated that it has been overwhelmed underground, and the small water they passed by, which caused a tongue of fire.

Xiao Shui's black and shiny hair was also burned at the moment when the fire came, and his face was also black, only his two eyes were shining with water, and he gritted his teeth and said to Guo'er: "You believe me, we have no way out, let's take a step back, this fire will follow us one step, and then the whole cliff will be a unemployed fire, and we can only rush over."

"We're just on the edge, we'll burn if we go inside," Guo'er cried out holding her feet.

"There's no way, I'll try to fly as high as possible, even if I die, I have to die in the sea of fire, otherwise I will bring the fire out" Xiaoshui slowly tried to rise, and the unkarmic fire was crushed underground at that time, and it was only a dozen miles away.

"Hold it" Xiao Shui gritted his teeth and rushed forward, using the fire avoidance technique to protect Guo'er, she was high, and the fire followed her closely. Xiao Shui was already a little unstable at the moment, and she was frightened, and she tightly hooked the clothes on her chest.

In the sea of fire, unless it is a person who has cultivated to become an immortal, he will not be able to pass this volcano, and at this moment, the powerful force in the body has also begun to burn, and the internal organs seem to have been ignited, and the whole body is burning with hot water inside and outside, "Ah" A deafening sound sounded in the sea of fire.

Guo'er was frightened and grabbed nowhere it was Xiao Shui's body was burning, Guo'er decisively chose to hold the hilt of the sword, clasped the hilt of the sword with his limbs and bit the hilt of the sword.

stared blankly at the burning water, except for her eyes, there was fire everywhere in her body, and countless fires came out of her mouth, and the whole person was completely in the sea of fire.

"Xiao Shui, Xiao Shui" Guo'er cried out as she bit her sword and shouted indistinctly. The fire below is getting bigger and bigger. It feels like they're going to be devoured. At the same time, the sword also began to shake, carrying them back and forth in the sea of fire, Guo'er almost fell down several times, Xiaoshui clenched his teeth, and his eyes showed pain.

Suddenly, a pair of strong hands picked up Guo'er and fell into a warm embrace, just like when Xiaoshui held her in his arms for the first time on the mountain. Immediately after that, the heavens and the earth turned, and the sky was dark, and there was another freedom. landed, and Guo'er felt that she was really dead.

As night fell, a meteor fell on a farmer's haystack.

The couple who were eating in the house heard a loud noise, you look at me, I look at you, and the peasant woman said dumbly, "What sound?" ”

"It can't be a youkai," the farmer asked.

"How is it possible, look at it from heaven," the peasant woman shook her head.

"Let's go, take the torch and see," said the farmer, who was bold and decisive, picked up the hoe in the corner of the house, and walked forward with his waist bent.

"Be careful," the peasant woman reminded her carefully.

"What are you talking about?" the farmer took the torch dissatisfied, paced to the haystack, and shouted in a trembling voice, "Is it a man or a demon, come out quickly?" ”

"Ghost," a dark thing, blinking at the blink of two stars, suddenly sat up, and the peasant women threw their torches and ran.

Xiao Shui looked around vigilantly, "Where is it?" ”

The surroundings were as quiet as water, and there was silence "Where are the ghosts?" ”

Lying on the haystack contentedly, it was so good to live again, and the fruit in his arms chirped.

People say that they are reborn from the fire, after experiencing the volcano, Xiao Shui feels full of strength, all the internal and external injuries are healed, the only thing that is not beautiful is that the fever is only a little on the top of the head, which can barely be tied, and Xiao Shui is inconvenient to tear strips of cloth from the clothes that can barely cover the body and tie his hair.

"Little brother, where is this?" Xiaoshui casually pulled a twelve or thirteen-year-old child to ask for directions.

"Mom, what the hell" the child ran away with a whoop.

"I'm so cowardly, I'm so big that I can fight against youkai" Xiao Shui walked away in disgust and went to ask another person.

"What the hell"

"Ghost" ran away again.

"You guys are so ignorant, ghosts only come out at night" Xiao Shui shook his head and walked away, not to mention it, there happened to be officers and soldiers guarding the city in front. The fierce gods are vicious, and the swords are shiny.

The officers and soldiers didn't quite flip through the booklet in their hands, "Where are you?" Where to go? ”

Xiao Shui smiled and finally met someone who could speak, "Ziliangzhou people, go to the imperial capital"

The officer and soldier felt a bright light flashing in front of him, and when he looked down, he immediately jumped three feet high, leaning limply against the wall. On the other side, the defenders who were in charge of checking the entry into the city threw away the pamphlets in fright.

"Where are the ghosts, I'm a human" Xiao Shui realized that the ghosts along the way were talking about her, and rubbed the ash on her face her sleeve, "Look"

The officer and soldier patted their hearts, carefully grabbed Xiaoshui and looked at it twice, and scolded: "What kind of ghost are you pretending to be in broad daylight, smearing all in black."

Xiao Shui smiled helplessly, this can't be blamed on her, who let you Tai Yuguo have no water, it was embarrassing to scare the two couples last night, it's good to be able to enter the city now, and laughed, "Isn't this afraid of meeting monsters on the road?" ”

The officer and soldier flicked the ashes on their clothes, snorted coldly, regained the face they had just lost, and said viciously: "Where are the people?" Where to go? ”

"People from Ziliangzhou, go to the imperial capital" Xiao Shui grinned.

"Take out the official seal and take a look," the man spread his hand in front of Xiao Shui's face.

"What official seal?" Xiao Shui asked rhetorically.

"I don't know the official seal? Is that the customs clearance voucher for you to come to Taiyuguo? The person behind reminded impatiently.

Xiao Shui said: "No" What other credentials do she need to come to Taiyuguo, the female army of Ziliang Prefecture guarding the border, and the soldiers of Shangyuan Realm have let them go.

"No?" The man was surprised.

"Nope"

"Arrest me," the officer immediately commanded the first layer of soldiers with knives behind him. There are several layers of black pressure in the back.

"What do you have to say?"

The man pulled his eyes together and said in a rough voice: "Which foreign people don't need the official seal to go to the Taiyu Kingdom, that is, the people of their own country still need to take their household registration to enter the city!" You said that you are from Ziliangzhou, and you didn't have an official seal when you came to Taiyuguo, you must be a monster, and you tied me up and sent me to the iron prison."
