Chapter Twenty-Nine: Under the Mountain of Flames
The flames were blazing, the flames were thousands of miles, and the mountains were like a huge fire dragon winding and coiling on the top of the mountain. After many days of running, the four of them finally reached the end of the western border of the earth boundary, the birds of the thousand mountains flew away, and the heat wave under the flaming mountain hit, and I am afraid that no life can withstand the scorching fire. Fire is probably the most devastating thing. Even the hardest steel will turn into molten iron in the face of fire, losing its essence of fortitude. But the softest water in the world that nourishes all things is indeed the nemesis of fire. It's really interesting to think about the ethics of mutual restraint in this world.
"This is the Flame Mountain!" Jin Jiu said, pointing to the burning mountains in front of him, but the aura of his words was not as resolute as a few days ago, as if the raging fire in front of him was about to melt him. Becomes listless, sometimes panting, sometimes breathing softly. The air around it seemed to be on fire.
"You want to go back to the Netherworld to pass through these mountains?" the mud doll tried to open his eyes wide, although he had the ability to be a prophet, he still didn't believe it, and asked Jin Jiu again. The four beasts under the seat had already stuck out their tongues, and they didn't want to shout more.
Jin Jiu looked indifferent, nodded, and said, "Is there a road without fire, can you cross?" After speaking, he pointed to the side of the guide, and then said: "It should be that direction!"
The most calm of the four people is Miao, Shui Ke Ke Huo, before this raging flame, although he hated it, but he finally found a place where he was stronger than the other three, he was very proud, and said: "Okay, let's go over there." After speaking, he walked in the direction pointed by Jin Jiu, completely ignoring the three people behind him who were already a little sluggish.
I only heard the mud doll say listlessly: "Why do I have a sense of foreboding?" As soon as these words came out, Eleven and Jin Jiu asked, what will happen? Because the mud doll's prediction has always been very accurate.
Miao was a few steps away from the three of them, and she also heard what the mud doll said, although she was shocked, but in order to save her face and establish her leading image among the four, she didn't look back, and continued to walk forward, but the steps were very small, similar to stepping in place, and her head was slightly tilted to hear what the mud doll would say. I couldn't stop beating the drum in my heart and saying to myself, "No, right?
The clay doll was probably roasted by this fire, and I couldn't figure out what would happen. The mud doll babbled a few nonsense words, and finally said, "It has nothing to do with the three of us!"
"Ahh
The mud doll said in a daze: "Of course it's me, Eleven and Jin Jiu!"
"Haha, it's the other way around! You can't stand this raging fire. Isn't it okay?" Miao said with a smile, but the smile was obviously a little reluctant.
"Oops!" Jin Jiu was suddenly startled, pointed at Miao and said, "It can't be your opponent!"
Among the three people, Jin Jiu and Miao have been together the longest, and it is also Jin Jiu who knows the most about Miao's affairs, about Miao's past, Miao himself rarely mentions it, Jin Jiu lights a bonfire when he sleeps, Jin Jiu sometimes mentions it, but just as he was about to say it, Miao diverted the topic and blocked it back, it seemed to be a very disgraceful past.
"How would he know I was here?" Miao frowned, slowly spitting out word by word, obviously he felt something himself!
"What's the right thing, what's it?" asked the mud doll, apparently interested.
"It's okay, he's afraid of me, my means are higher than him!" Miao still held on and didn't let go.
"If the means are higher than him, you won't cry and deceive him in front of him, right?" Jin Jiu said, mentioning the previous incident!
"He's stupid, his brain is his bruise, and my means of being higher than him are smarter than him? He won't catch me, don't worry!" Miao couldn't help but cheer up the three of them, but the more the voice went to the back, the more powerless he became, and he couldn't even hear himself.
"Is it red hair and red armor, and the eyes are shining?" said the mud doll, it seemed that Miao was getting closer, and it was a lot cooler, and what happened.
"The red hair is right, but how can there be red armor? Could it be that the master gave it to him?" Miao said to herself, her heart was shocked, and she said to the mud doll, "How do you know?"
"Soon he'll be in front of us!" said the mud doll.
"Then don't go, I'll run first!" Miao heard this, and said anxiously, seeing that the three of them stopped in place, and ran out not far, they turned back and asked, "In which direction to escape?"
The mud doll shook her head incessantly and said, "It's useless! You can't run! You should know it yourself! This land belongs to him! We have come all the way, and the place where there is water is a few days away from here. Where can you go? ”
Miao sighed, pouted listlessly and said, "Okay, I'm still going to prepare for the future." Suddenly, he turned his head and begged Eleven with a sad and sad face: "Brother Eleven, you go back with me, you know that I have always wanted to learn chess from you, but I didn't succeed, and there were too many things to waste." The grief in Miao's expression was so sad that no one was moved!
Jin Jiu said to the clay doll: "That's what he looked like that day!"
Seeing that Miao suddenly said that he wanted to learn chess, he was strange, except for playing chess with Bai Chou, he had never asked these questions at other times, and he didn't know why he suddenly said it today, so he asked, "Why did you suddenly think of learning chess again?"
The mud doll smiled: "You better tell the truth, otherwise your opponent will come and you won't even have a chance to speak." ”
The mud doll knew that he must be lying, so he said so, Miao saw such a scene, and thought about the mud doll's words, so he said, "My master likes to play chess, every time he makes a mistake, play a game of chess with him, forget it, he won't punish me." This time I made a big mistake and I was so scared that I escaped. I can't escape when I go back and face the wall, and I don't know what kind of crime I will suffer! My master once said that if I win a game of chess one day, he will promise me anything! If you go back with me and win him, then I won't do it."
Only then did Eleven understand his intentions, and remembered what he said in his dream the night he first met Miao, and thought about the reason.
Miao saw Eleven's hesitation, so he said: "Eleventh brother, you said that you went to find someone, I don't think they will go to the Netherworld, this endless volcano, must have gone to other places." The boundary of the earth extends to Tianchi in the south and Flame Mountain in the west, but there is no human figure. You follow me to my ancestor, he is a master in the world, and his cultivation skills are unmatched. You can read people's hearts, and maybe you can figure out where you're looking for the person!"
Jin Jiu listened to Miao's words, and his heart was reasonable, so he turned his head to Eleven and said: "Brother Miao is right, Brother Eleven thank you for helping me recapture the Xuanjin Blade, today the realm has reached the end of the west, this matter of the gold realm is my responsibility, and we will say goodbye." See you again in the future!"
Eleven thought about it too, and heard Miao say that his ancestor was a master in the world. Remembering that when he went down the mountain, the master had told him about an old friend of his, could it be the teacher group in Miao's mouth, Miao fell into a deep thought.
Suddenly he was awakened by a wild roar, which was like a dragon's roar, but not as high-pitched as a dragon's roar, like a lion's roar, but not as strong as a lion's roar. The four of them looked at the place where the sound came from, and saw only one person, followed by several fireballs, running towards them.
"Fool, here!" Miao said lightly.
Soon a wave of scorching fire hit, and the heat was suffocating. The deer, horses, and alpacas under the clay doll seat were shocked when they saw a few fireballs, and they didn't know where to put their four hooves? When the fireballs were near, they turned out to be several fire unicorns, their eyes were on fire, and sparks erupted from their mouths. Probably because of the intimacy between the beasts, a few fire unicorns were very interested in the four-headed monsters, and they couldn't stop observing around the deer, horses, and alpacas! The four beasts saw the fire unicorn spewing fire and staring at themselves, and they immediately shivered, and their four legs couldn't help shaking, and they suddenly ran away. The mud doll shouted, "They won't eat you!"
Look at the man behind the fireball, with red hair and red armor, bright eyes, red face, low nose bridge, and upturned sword eyebrows. The transparent bottle on his waist, a blue feather hit the wall of this bottle from time to time, making a crisp sound. A faint burst of flame erupted between the scales and armor of the man's body, and bursts of red light erupted. Seeing Miao smiled: "Senior brother, I can be regarded as finding you again, you can't run away this time, Master and Ancestor and a few uncles want me to take you back!"
Miao looked at the red-haired young man listlessly and asked, "Got it, Master, did they say how to punish me?"
The red-haired boy shook his head and said, "I don't know! ”
Miao said to herself: "Master must be reluctant to punish me heavily, I'm afraid that the master will still have those nosy masters." Miao said as she took out the green wood arrow pinned to her waist, and said to the red-haired young man with joy: "It's all bad with this arrow, or you bring this arrow back, I'll forget it!"
The red-haired boy didn't seem to have any interest in the magic arrow, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Miao's mouth and said, "Don't lie to me with clever words. I know I'm stupid, I can't say you, I believed you last time and let you run away, no matter what you say this time, I don't believe it!"
I don't know what Miao is going to say again, but suddenly the red-haired young man grabbed it, and the red-haired young man said: "Don't say anything, just go back with me, you can't say anything!"
Miao pouted and said, "You and my senior brother haven't seen each other for many days, so you should catch up on the old days, and you don't have to be in such a hurry! As he spoke, he moved his steps to Eleven's side and said, "This is Brother Eleven, he is very good at chess, and he can also escape the void, and he can suddenly disappear in front of him." You know that the master can't do this, and he has a few treasures on him" Saying this, Miao didn't know what she suddenly remembered, stopped, the corners of her mouth curled, and a wicked smile appeared on her face.
The red-haired young man clenched his fists and said, "Hello Brother Eleven, I am the senior brother of the three thousand! My name is two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine!"
Although Jin Jiu, who was standing on the side, didn't have much strength, he immediately laughed when he heard the name, and said to Miao: "Brother Miao, it turns out that your name is three thousand! Jin Jiu felt spontaneous about his seniors who were ranked the ninth.
Miao was also strange, ignored Jin Jiu, leaned in front of Eleven, and smiled at the red-haired young man: "Senior brother, I have a very good relationship with Brother Eleven. I may be saying goodbye today, I have something I want to talk to Brother Eleven alone!"
The red-haired boy nodded without any reason to refuse, and Jin Jiu suddenly thought of something when he saw a wicked smile on Miao's face just now. When Eleven heard this, he felt in a fog, why did he have to go back to his master with him just now, and now he said goodbye.
Miao took Eleven's hand and walked away a few steps, and several fire unicorns around the red-haired boy came over, wagging their tails from time to time, licking the red-haired boy's hand, and watching from the side. Miao whispered, "Brother Eleven, what kind of spring do you have, can you lend me it!"
Eleven had already understood his mind when he heard him say this. In the trapped immortal mound that day, it was only by relying on three drops of living springs to form a river that he escaped, and today there is no river within a radius of a hundred miles, Miao knows that he can't escape, but if there is water, this red-haired young man is helpless no matter how great his ability is.
Eleven hesitated, thinking that the living spring water washed away Nanyaozhuang that day, I don't know if it hurt anyone, if it was today when Eleven was still hesitating, Miao slipped out of his arms The bottle of living spring, Eleven was startled, and didn't have time to catch it, only to see Miao walk to the red-haired young man with his hands behind his back, and silently recited in his mouth: "One, two, three!"
Then Miao said: "I don't want to go back, it's very boring to practice martial arts on the mountain every day, and you will be punished when you go back, why don't you play with me in the flower world outside, how good!"
The red-haired young man saw the sudden change in his tone, so he hurriedly said, "You just agreed, why did you suddenly say this?"
Miao smiled sneerly and said, "Just now, now is now, if you have the ability, you will come and arrest me!"
The red-haired young man was originally not easy to use, but now when he heard Miao say this, the monk of the second zhang couldn't touch his head, and saw that he had not changed much, why did he suddenly say this, and his head hurt if he thought too much. The red-haired boy took off the chain wrapped around his waist, grabbed it in his hand, and jumped towards Miao.
Miao originally had a calm face, and when he heard that there was no sound of water behind him, he turned his head and looked, dumbfounded, and looked at the place where the spring water had just dripped with wide eyes, and there was no difference from the surrounding soil.
It turned out that the living spring fell drop by drop, and the hot and dry ground had already turned into a mass of gas, and how could it condense together to form a river. At this moment, Miao had no means to do it, only to hear Wow's screams: "It's so hot!"
Eleven and Jin Jiuyi listened to Miao's screams, and then looked at the red-hot iron chains tied to Miao's body, afraid that the steel and iron bones were also going to melt. Eleven shouted: "Brother Tai is slow, Brother Miao is afraid that he can't stand this kind of binding method." ”
Jin Jiu gathered his energy and condensed his mind to sacrifice the Xuanjin Blade, he knew that Huo Ke Jin, for the sake of brotherhood, he couldn't take care of it. Several fire unicorns seemed to see Jin Jiu's intentions and suddenly jumped in front of Jin Jiu. roared loudly, spewing fire and flames in his mouth, and all of a sudden, Jin Jiu was so sleepy that he couldn't move, and he only felt as if his whole body was melting.
Seeing this, Eleven sacrificed a few earth lives, and hit the red-haired boy's arm as fast as lightning, only hearing a few ping-pong sounds, the red-haired boy felt a slight pain. Turning his head to look at Eleven. But it doesn't seem to be a big deal. A few ground lives had just struck the red-haired boy's arm, but Eleven felt a scorching flame attack his heart, a burn that he had never seen before, attacking him. Eleven knew in his heart that this earthly life was like his own hands and feet, and he had feelings.
The red-haired boy was about to say something when a golden light jumped behind him and swooped down on him, followed by two weaker golden rays shooting towards him. The red-haired young man seemed to have eyes behind him, pushed away Miao, who was bound by him, turned around and waved his left hand, and flicked his right hand, blocking the two halves of the Xuanjin blade, but revealing the flaw in his chest, Jin Jiu rushed down, and a punch was hitting him in the chest. But the red-haired boy roared, and suddenly the fire was in full bloom, and the blazing fire rushed towards Jin Jiu, at this moment, he couldn't use any strength, and only relied on the force of the fall to rush towards the red-haired boy, this punch hit the chest, but it was soft like a bowl of water splashed on the chest. The red-haired boy raised his foot and kicked Jin Jiu more than a foot away. This kick is not to seriously injure Jin Jiu, because his body is too hot, and he is afraid that Jin Jiu will get too close, it will definitely be no good. But the red-haired boy was stupid and didn't know how to jump away.
"Brother Jin!" Eleven shouted when he saw such a situation, Jin Jiu should not, and his whole body seemed to be burned. Lying on the ground and fainting.
Eleven endured the pain of being burned, sacrificed all his earthly lives, and shot at the red-haired boy like a torrential rain. These days, he has never stopped, and he has naturally improved a lot by cultivating according to the method in the book he wrote down in his heart.
The red-haired boy had never encountered this kind of weapon, and if the knife and gun were also one by one, he would have dealt with it, but there were so many, what should he do, if he hit the back of his head, it would be a big deal. As for the big things, he himself didn't know.
So, without saying a word, he quickly pulled out the iron chain tied to Miao's body, and threw it up with all his might, and the iron chain suddenly surrounded him, like a fireball, only to see the earth's life collide with the iron chain on the fireball, but none of them could penetrate into it. At this moment, Eleven was already in unbearable pain, and suddenly he couldn't hold on, and fell to the ground, his body trembling.
Miao saw Eleven and Jin Jiu fall to the ground and said worriedly: "You just arrested me, why did you hurt them?"
The red-haired boy was asked by him like this, he didn't know what to say, and he didn't want to do it. Miao, who shouted to death just now, stood up as if she was fine, ran to Eleven, who was panting loudly and trembling, and asked, "Brother Eleven, are you okay?"
Eleven shook his head weakly and said, "You go and see Jin Jiu." As he spoke, he took out the living spring from his arms, dropped a drop of his mouth, and handed it to Miao, who took the living spring and went to look at Jin Jiu, and saw that he didn't move at all, so he knocked on Jin Jiu's mouth and dropped two drops.
After a while, the two of them recovered, and the red-haired young man looked ashamed, and said to Eleven and Jin Jiu with a fist: "I was offended just now, I didn't mean to!"
Eleven smiled and said, "Brother Tai is very capable. Jin Jiu looked at Miao and said, "I thought you were going to kill Brother Miao! ”
You must know that Miao is that kind of character, he can't eat even the slightest loss, even if a mosquito bites, he will also make a noise about killing pigs. It was very painful for this red-hot iron chain to lock others, but it was not a big deal for Miao.
"I was ordered by my master and ancestor to take him there, so how could I harm him!" the red-haired boy said. Obviously, the shame just now is still there, and the tongue is not very bright when he speaks, and he is intermittent.
"What are you four running around, looking at the road!" I saw that not far away, the mud doll patted the head of the deer, horse and alpaca, and reluctantly walked back. I don't know how far they run.
"Everyone, don't leave it here, you can't stay here for longer! If you continue like this, I'm afraid I'm going to dry up! I'll go back to the Netherworld!" Jin Jiu arched his hand and said.
"Brother Kim, take care!" said Eleven and the red-haired boy.
Miao heard Eleven's words, and her heart was suddenly very happy, and she said with a smile: "So, Brother Eleven, did you promise to go back with me?"
"Yes!" Eleven nodded, and then said: "Brother Miao, I came out of the mountain because the master once mentioned to me about one of his old people, Xuantong's ability is extremely clever, if he can get a mention or two from his old man, it will be a great luck!"
"Old man, that's my ancestor, that's right! It must be!" Miao heard Eleven say this, and he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and said yes. I wondered in my heart: "I have heard from the master group, the master rarely has contact with outsiders, and there is only one friend called the immortal, wouldn't it be the master of Eleven!"
The mud doll slowly approached, knowing that Jin Jiu was leaving, she was suddenly a little reluctant, pouting and silent.
Jin Jiu said goodbye again, then turned to leave, and saw that he was also very reluctant, and walked south. Seeing his figure disappear into the heat wave, several people turned their heads. Also prepare to leave this place, at least find a cool place first, otherwise it will really be roasted.
