Chapter 24: Fire

"Don't look at it, maybe there will be a chance to see it in the future, let's go!"

"Hmm." Zhang Shaoyuan stood up and followed Ge Yueying to a hole behind the bookshelf that looked like the entrance to a vegetable cellar, followed by Ye Qing

"Master, really want to ......"

Ge Yueying was opening the door to the cellar without looking back

"Do you think you're still qualified to call me master?"

“…… Be. But do you really want him to suffer this kind of punishment, not to mention that he is also for Xianzun Town. And you can see the condition of his body. Leaving aside the master-apprentice relationship, even if it's human nature, it shouldn't be like this. ”

"You're saying I'm inhuman? That's right, you're right, you've done this business yourself, so you should know that this business is not about dealing with people in the first place, so why talk about human nature. ”

"You ......" Ye Qing was speechless. On the other side, Ge Yueying also happened to open the warehouse door.

"Alright, come in"

Zhang Shaochang and Ye Qing followed Ge Yueying's footsteps to the basement together. The basement doesn't look big from the outside, but when you come in, you realize that it's a different cave. Although Zhang Shaojiao has grown up in Xianzun Town since he was a child, it is the first time he has come in here, to be exact, Zhang Shaojiao didn't know that there was such a basement here. He always thought it was a green storage room.

This couldn't help but remind Ye Qing of the so-called middle palace under the Qingxuan Residence.

Passing through a long corridor, I came to an open area, this open area is the same as the middle palace under Qing Xuanju, it is a fairly standard octagon, and like the middle palace of Qing Xuanju, the surrounding walls here are also carved with some strange symbols, this is that all over this place is covered with dust, it seems that no one has been here for a long time.

Although there was nothing difficult to preserve here, there were also no lights or any electrical appliances, so Ge Yueying casually took a torch from the shelf next to her and lit it with a lighter, and the light of the fire guided the three of them towards the darker depths.

Finally, the three of them came to a place that looked like a cliff, an underground cliff.

Ge Yueying threw the torch in her hand off the cliff, and suddenly, a sea of fire rose, and only then did Zhang Shaochang and Ye Qing see the true face of this place. This is not a cliff, but a sea of swords and fire.

Below is a huge crater almost two meters deep. Inside the pit, however, there were knives one by one, flickering in the firelight, without a trace of warmth.

Ge Yueying looked at the sea of fire in front of her, and suddenly remembered her master, who was the previous head of Xianzun Town. She clearly remembered that her master back then, just because she broke a little rule, she endured the sea of swords and fires, and Ge Yueying at that time was similar to the current Zhang Shaojiao, cardamom was in his prime.

Looking at Zhang Shaoyuan's eyes, Ge Yueying said provocatively

"What, you regret it?"

"Repentance?" Zhang Shaochang said, jumped off the cliff, arrived at the edge of the pit, turned back to Ge Yueying above and said, "Repent, that's not me." ”

At the same time, Zhang Shaojiao made a gesture to Ye Qing, indicating that there was no problem.

Zhang Shaojiao took a scroll from the shelf next to him, faced the sea of fire, slowly opened it, and knelt on the ground.

"Zhang Shaojiao, the successor of Xianzun Town, has misbehaved, and now in the face of the sea of swords, mountains and fires, he is willing to be punished and has no complaints. Now in front of all the immortals, piety is proof. ”

After Zhang Shaochang finished speaking, he put the scroll back on the shelf and turned back to Ye Qing.

"Brother Ye Qing, you have also seen that this is more than auspicious, if something happens to me on this trip, my things are in my cabinet, including my PDA (personal digital assistant), and Qingxuanju was created by me, and it has nothing to do with Xianzun Town, even if I can't come back, the time group has changed, and you can still stay in Qingxuanju in peace. Also, don't lose it in the middle palace, I'll come back to see you. ”

"Are you really going?"

"Guess."

Zhang Shaojiao took off his shoes, took off his socks, took off his coat, and rolled his trouser legs all the way above his knees. Finally, he looked at the charm in his hand. He was already familiar with that charm, and he remembered that when he first learned the charm, he was always pasted by the old lady because of his indiscriminate use, but he didn't expect that now this one is really used to stop himself. However, this spell is also different from the previous one, and there is a line of small print below this talisman, which is also a text dedicated to writing spells. It looks like it's a spell too. Although Zhang Shaochang found out, he didn't care too much.

Ye Qing above seemed to have seen the spell, and he was also a freshman who was puzzled, so he asked

"The one on Shao Yuan's wrist...... What is it? ”

The old lady looked at Zhang Shaojiao and replied intently

"It's called an isolation spell, which can put people's souls in a state equivalent to isolation from the world, and in layman's terms, it means that they can't use unnatural abilities such as charms, including Qimen Dunjia. This is the rule of punishment, he should not be able to use anything when he is punished, and he should have the appearance of being punished. ”

Ye Qing originally thought that Zhang Shao Miao could use a spell or Qimen Dunjia to pass, but when he heard Ge Yueying's words, he was anxious

"Didn't you let Zhang Shaojiao go to death, you can also see his body, his corpse poison has not been solved yet, and his body is still in a negative state......

Ye Qing suddenly remembered something, and watching Zhang Shaoyuan approach the sea of fire little by little, he seemed to realize something.

Zhang Shaojiao first tried the blade with his hand, but as soon as he touched it, he was scalded back by the blade that was already about to burn red. He closed his eyes and stepped on it with calloused feet that didn't fit his age. And with Zhang Shaojiao stepping up, there was Ye Qing's worry.

It is hot, but cannot stop it. Zhang Shaochang endured the pain under his feet, moving forward step by step, every step was a torment, and if he didn't take every step, he might be swallowed up by the boundless sea of fire at any time, and there was no hope at all. Zhang Shaojiao doesn't want to, he can't give up, he must persevere.

Ye Qing was on it, looking at the color of the fire, that fire was the most ordinary diesel fire, which was not unusual at all. But Ye Qing remembered this sea of swords and fire, and he had seen it in a book before.

Fire, it should be the fire of the soul. And that means......
