What is Magic?

Is it the divine power needed to turn on the system?

Ji Hua'an's explanations were like a river, all kinds of quotations and classics, and in the end, Yang Yan finally understood that this old thing was pure, and he couldn't explain this problem at all.

"Take me to see that goddess!" After the meal, Yang Yan didn't plan to listen to any more nonsense, and decided to verify it himself.

Ji Hua'an tried his best to dissuade him, opening his mouth and closing his mouth to tell about the possible dangers that might arise from being close to the goddess.

Yang Yanyan's heart tightened when he heard this, this world is very mysterious, he is indeed Meng Lang, before he understands the situation, he really shouldn't be in danger, but he is very confused, the so-called goddess looks weak, he can't imagine what danger can be.

If she really has magical powers, how can she be caught by mortals? Nonsense, she won't be captured at all, according to the Taoist sect, she is a devil with supernatural powers, except for the Taoist god punishment army, mortals are weak chickens in front of her!

However, this devil was caught by the people of the border country, not only tortured in every way, but also sent to the gallows, but she never showed her magic from beginning to end, how can this be explained?

"How did she get caught?"

"When she heard that the Beishan Coal Mine collapsed, she revealed her identity to save her relatives and was caught by angry miners!"

Yang Yan had the impression that this happened the day before he crossed over.

"She was seen working her magic?"

"I don't know. ”

Yang Yan said in a deep voice, "Why don't you investigate clearly?"

"Your Highness, resuming coal mine production is the top priority," Ji Huaan protested, "Half of the financial revenue of the border countryside can depend on this coal mine, except for this, how can the lower officials have the energy to take care of anything else, and the prosecutor confirmed that someone died of magic at the scene." ”

"Oh, what kind of magic?"

"Flame of heat. In short, the deceased died in a strange state, almost melted, like a half-lit black candle!" Ji Huaan replied uncertainly.

Yang Yan thought thoughtfully, he could carbonize people, and he immediately thought of concentrated sulfuric acid, but this thing was quite troublesome to prepare, and he didn't think that this world had the ability to make it.

But how did this goddess do this?

Puzzled, Yang Yan decided to meet the goddess for a while.

"Old thing, I order you, take me to see her!" Saying that, regardless of Ji Huaan's objection, Yang Yan took the lead in walking out of the meeting hall.

..............................

The border countryside was very poor, and could not afford to keep too many prisoners, except for a dungeon, which was noisy, dirty, messy, and smelly.

In addition to Ji Hua'an, who followed the prince into the dungeon, there were also the guard commander Cheng Han, the warden, the cell leader, and a team of guards.

The dungeon is made of granite and has four floors, like an inverted cone-shaped pit, with fewer cells and narrower passages from top to bottom.

The goddess was locked up at the bottom.

"Your Highness, it's too dangerous to do this. Even if the goddess is trapped by the Shinto lock, there is no guarantee of 100% safety!"

Cheng Han was still dissuading, and when he heard that the prince was going to see the goddess, he hurried over.

This guy obviously has an arrogant male god face, why is he just a chatter? Yang Yan really wanted to sew his mouth shut, "Don't dare to face the devil, how can you have the courage to defeat the demon? My lord, you must understand this!"

"Your Highness, everything needs to be done according to your ability, recklessness and bravery are not equal!"

"In other words, do you want to say that I am a reckless man? Or do you want to express your pathetic thoughts: justice can be done when the weak are encountered, and the strong can be avoided?"

"No, Your Highness, the last general means ......"

"I was afraid of the goddess robbing the prison before, and now I am afraid of a little girl, my lord is really unique!"

Cheng Han was speechless, he talked a lot but was not good at arguing, and Yang Yan was powerless to resist when he encountered a mouth cannon, so he could only follow him unwillingly to the bottom of the prison.

There were many fewer cells here, and due to the lack of ventilation, it was more humid and smelly, and the cell head lit the torch on the side of the passage, and the darkness receded, and Yang Yan saw the goddess huddled in the corner.

Although it is only early autumn now, everyone is already exhaling like an orchid in the cell, and the white fog is very obvious, you can imagine how low the temperature is, before coming in, Yang Yan was reminded by Ji Hua'an to wear a fluffy coat, but he didn't feel how cold.

But the goddess was clothed alone, and she couldn't completely cover her body, and her exposed hands and feet were already frozen and bloody.

The sudden light turned her head sideways.

These are a pair of black eyes like a fountain of stars, without anger, hatred or fear, like a calm spring.

However, Yang Yan had the illusion that he had seen a raging flame that was ready to burst at any moment! For a moment, he felt that the torch had lost its brilliance, as if it had been swallowed by her.

She leaned against the wall, moving slowly, but she stood up, walking from a dim foot to the light of the torch.

Everyone was like a great enemy, except for Cheng Gang who dodged in front of him, everyone else retreated.

"What's your name?" Yang Yan patted Cheng Yan's shoulder, signaling him not to be nervous.

"Mo Xiaobei. She replied.

"What happened when the coal mine collapsed, you tell me. ”

Mo Xiaobei nodded, like a well-behaved child, and began to narrate.

The story is not so complicated, Mo Xiaobei's father is a coal digger, and he was working in the coal cave when it collapsed.

When she found her father, his leg was crushed by a cart full of coal mines, and a miner was robbing him of the gold coins, Li Qiang and his wife stepped forward to stop him from being knocked to the ground, and just as the man was about to kill him, Mo Xiaobei killed him.

Li Qiang and his wife vowed not to tell her story, and the three of them rescued her father together. But the next day, her father handed her over to the guards.

"Why?" Hearing this, Yang Yan turned his head and asked.

Ji Hua'an sighed, "Presumably for the sake of the bounty, reporting a goddess can get twenty-five gold coins, and this gold coin is guaranteed for a person with a broken leg in the next life." ”

Yang Yan was silent for a moment, "The other party is powerful, what did you use to kill him?"

At this moment, Mo Xiaobei smiled, and the flame tip of the torch shook.

"Hehe, it's just the magic you said!"

"Presumptuous, demon!" the warden pooped, and anyone could hear the tremor in his throat.

"Really? I want to see it. Yang Yan was unmoved.

"Your Highness, this is absolutely not possible!" Cheng Han, the commander of the guards, said to stop.

Yang Yan walked out from behind Cheng Han and approached Mo Xiaobei step by step, "If you are afraid, you can leave." ”

Approaching, Yang Yan unlocked the lock of the Divine Dao on Mo Xiaobei's neck, and everyone retreated violently, Cheng Yan drew his sword and stepped forward, and when he wanted to make a fatal blow, he was repelled by Yang Yan.

"No one can hurt you but me. Now, I command you to use your magic at once!"

"Come on!" Yang Yan snorted. Are you a liar, a chemist, or a real witch? I'm going to be disappointed if you pull out any jars. He thought to himself.

Then, Yang Yan watched the scene of the upside-down outlook on life, the blue flame rose from the girl's feet, gently licking the girl's white calves, and then the ground within a meter radius of her was on fire, and the entire cell was as bright as day in an instant, and the temperature was extremely high, but she was unscathed!

She walked forward, blue flames swam after her, and when she reached the edge of the cell, the iron bars in front of her turned into pillars of fire!

Yang Yan had to retreat, the hot air tearing at his skin, making him feel unbearable pain. However, he was in ecstasy, and the mechanical voice of the system sounded in his head again:

"Detect the fluctuation of divine power, do you collect divine power?"
