Chapter 60: What Seed, What Tree
I couldn't feel what it was like to be scorched, but I could roughly guess what it was like when I saw those powerful ghosts being burned by the demon fire before.
Now Rujun is holding me, and the whole person is burning under the fire, and I feel distressed, very painful.
But I didn't want to break free from Rujun's embrace. I know this hug was hard for her and for me.
I felt Rujun's body against my back, and I could even feel Rujun's breathing heartbeat, and for a few seconds, although my heart was dripping blood, it was also very sweet......
In just three seconds, only three seconds, Rujun finally let go of me, and I quickly turned nervously and looked at my goddess with concern.
The goddess was already burned and reddened. But fortunately, there were no external injuries. Maybe it's because the bloom of my demon fire just now makes the current flame not so fierce.
I felt very distressed, but I couldn't reach out to comfort her, and this feeling made me very uncomfortable.
Rujun understood my thoughts, she smiled at me and said, "Don't worry, it doesn't hurt, I can bear it." ”
I smiled bitterly and whispered, "I'm sorry, Rujun." ”
Rujun smiled and said: "I'm sorry for what you said, stupid or not, you saved me so much just now, I should say thank you to you." ”
I hurriedly said, "I said that if I want to protect you, I must protect you." ”
Rujun listened to this. He smiled slightly, and the pride on his face was indescribable. She nodded and said, "I believe in you." ”
Before the words fell, Rhubarb and they had already walked over, and Bai Yanshan looked at me in shock, as if she didn't believe that the feat of being a one-man rival to the two Five Elements Great Array just now would be done by me.
And Xu Shi and Poison Peony also looked at me with blue eyes, and the eyes of Poison Peony looked at me a little changed.
Rhubarb stepped forward and patted me on the shoulder and said, "Lin Yang, you kid can do it, I saw you burning all over your body just now......"
When he slapped me, I immediately felt dizzy, as if the whole person couldn't stand anymore, and my body was crooked. Immediately fell to the ground.
Rhubarb is not strong enough to hold me at all, but the ghost can't have long-term contact with me, so he can only let the old cat come and hug me, and shout in a low voice: "Lin Yang? Lin Yang? ”
I felt like I had a high fever, the old cat and my body contact was very sensitive, the whole person was fluttering, and seeing that others began to have phantoms, I whispered: "Old cat, I'm tired...... I'm so tired......"
The old cat hurriedly sat on the ground, let me lie on the track, his head rested on his legs, he gently helped me loosen my muscles, and then turned around and asked Rujun and Poison Peony: "Lin Yang, what's wrong?" ”
Rujun and Poison Peony looked at each other, and no one had an idea, so they could only turn around and ask Xu Shi.
Old man Xu Shi seemed to be full of deep meaning, sighed, and said: "This kid is tired, when he falls asleep, let's talk about him......"
I didn't make them wait long, because soon after, I could hear a snoring sound.
At first, I was still wondering, whose snoring was this? Why is there another person here sleeping besides me?
However, when I tried to look, I realized that the purring was not someone else, but myself!
I was in a very miraculous state, that is, I was asleep on the surface, my body could not move, my eyes could not be opened, but I was still able to maintain my hearing and thinking ability, and I could hear what they were saying!
It's so weird, I don't know why, could it be that someone is secretly trying to let me eavesdrop on these things?
This strange state of affairs was confusing at first, but after a while I started to get used to it.
At this time, I only heard Bai Yanshan say: "Old man, Lin Yang is already asleep, what did you want to say just now?" Now might as well talk about it, right? ”
Old Man Xu Shi snorted and said in a low voice: "I ask you, has Lin Yang ever entered the underground palace?" "Carry it at a young age.
The moment this sentence came out, I became nervous, just now the old man Xu Shi said to test people, it must be me, I thought he just wanted to test my ability, but it seems that he is not testing my ability, but whether I have been to the underground palace...... What's more, he may want to test the seed I devoured, and in this way, the problem will be serious, because the purple ghost said that the seed in my body is what everyone in the underworld is looking for.
After the old man asked, no one answered him, and there were not many people who knew about my entry into the underground palace, so there must be someone on the scene who knew the answer, but still didn't answer him.
The old man continued: "If you know, please be sure to tell me, because this matter involves the lifeblood of the entire underworld, and even the entire Sijiu City, and if anything goes wrong, then it will be a great catastrophe between heaven and earth......
"Apocalypse?" I was shocked in my heart, the old man's words couldn't be clearer, if I have never entered the underground palace, it will involve a great catastrophe between heaven and earth!
Could it be that I am this catastrophe? The person who is connected to the underworld and the dungeon is not another family, but me?
This is too incredible, because the ghost who gave me the seed is only at the purple level, and there is still a gap between gold and silver, he is definitely not the terrible king of ten thousand dragons, at best he is just a little dog's leg, could it be that the king of ten thousand dragons is entrusting him to trick me into a trick and feed me that weird seed?
And what exactly is that seed?
At this time, Rujun suddenly asked, "What are you referring to, is it the Heavenly Tribulation?" ”
Xu Shi smiled and said, "I don't know what kind of catastrophe, but it may indeed cause a catastrophe." ”
"Could it be related to that person?" Rujun asked in a low voice, Rujun has heard about the King of Ten Thousand Dragons, but now no one dares to say his name.
Xu Shi said: "Yes, if Lin Yang really enters the underground palace and eats that seed......"
Speaking of this, Poison Peony and Rujun both snorted, Xu Yingyang was also a little surprised, obviously they all knew what that seed was, but Bai Yanshan didn't know much about these things, after all, she was just a new ghost, although she was the nominal patriarch of the Bai family, she didn't know much about the things in the underworld.
"Old man, Lin Yang did enter the underground palace, but was that seed really eaten by him?" Rujun's tone was somewhat anxious, which shows that this kind of thing is really not a good thing.
Poison Peony also added: "I have long felt that Lin Yang is a little abnormal, but I didn't expect it to be really that seed...... But when you say that, I know that all the characteristics on Lin Yang's body are very consistent with the legend, and this seed seems to have really reached him. ”
Rhubarb probably heard it in a fog, and couldn't help but interject: "What kind of seed is it?" What the hell are you talking about? ”
Xu Shi sighed bitterly and said, "The seed in the underground palace, the magic weapon in that person's hand, is called the Dark Fire Xuanzhu. ”
"Flame Ultimate? Doesn't that sound like a bead? How can it be a seed? Rhubarb asked.
Xu Shi said: "This Xuanzhu was originally the fruit of some kind of tree, this tree was only one in the city at the beginning, it should be the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, this tree was cut down, most of the fruits in the tree were destroyed, and the last fruit was passed on to the underground palace, from ...... That person holds it in his hand, and this fruit is the Hellfire Pearl......"
"...... that person?" Rhubarb asked, but no one answered him, so he didn't bother to ask again, and threw out another question: "Then why is this Dark Fire Pearls still seeds?" ”
"But every fruit basically has a seed, and this Flame Xuanzhu is both a fruit and a seed, and once it is devoured, it is said that a new ......tree can be cultivated," Xu Shi said slowly.
"What tree?" Rhubarb asked.
Xu Shi shook his head and said: "I haven't been lucky enough to see it, so I don't know the name of this tree, but according to legend, this tree is a thing of the most yin, and the yang world can't see it at all, and only the ghosts of the underworld can be lucky enough to see it......"
"So what Lin Yang swallowed was the seed of this tree, the Flame Pearl?" Rhubarb asked again.
