Volume II, Chapter 39

Shu Qing and Red Guangyao acted according to the instructions of the masked man and successfully entered the Demon Domain.

Shuqing found that there were really a lot of people who mixed in like them, and this has become a black industry chain compared to this.

The Demon Domain is built on the desert, with the Holy Moon Mountain as the center, and the palace of the Demon Venerable is built on the Holy Moon Mountain. To the east is the Holy Sepulchre Ridge and the Reflecting Moon Lake, legend has it that the Reflecting Moon Lake is connected to the Lethe River, and no one can reach it except the Demon Venerable, and the Holy Sepulchre Ridge is the place where the Demon Venerable and his family members are buried.

There are three oases in the west, Yuanyao, Suehong, and Quli, with a large population, frequent commercial and trade exchanges, and it is also the most frequent place for foreigners to come to the Demon Domain. To the north and south are large deserts, and in some places there are poplar forests, most of which are places where the demon people cultivate, and ordinary people dare not enter rashly.

The two of them came to the Quli Oasis. The demons like to be active at night, and their physical and mental strength far exceeds that of other clansmen, as long as they sleep for less than two hours a day, it is enough.

At this time, although it was late at night, the city was brightly lit, and the sky was high with fish lanterns, and I don't know who used a spell to urge them to swim over the city, and in a trance it was really as if they had reached the bottom of the sea. Brilliant fireworks also appear in the sky from time to time.

Because the Demon Domain has been closed for a long time, the ordinary Demon residents in it rarely go out of the domain, so they like some strange things of the human race very much, and although the Demon people are short-tempered and will be revenged, they are generous and unambiguous, and there are many foreigners who come here to do business. There are also some people who are rich in armor, but have low mana, or who want to go to the surrounding desert to hunt for treasures, will hire some demons as guards.

With such a two-benefit model, the two races of humans and demons have been at peace for a long time. And there is no deep grudge between the two races like the demon hunting war, coupled with some benefits given by the imperial court to the demon domain, although the demon venerable preaches to the outside world to remain neutral and does not meddle in any affairs, but in fact, it is gradually biased towards the human race.

Red Guangyao deliberately slowed down so that Su Qing could keep up.

Although the ointment given by the masking man is made of high-grade medicinal materials, it cannot heal the wound in a short time.

Shu Qing found an inn and planned to rest here for a while. After dropping the sentence "don't run around", Hong Guangyao planned to go out alone.

Su Qing was originally drowsy, but when he saw this one of the spirits standing up from the chair in the guest room, his eyes widened, "I'll go with you!" I'll go where you go. ”

Red Shine: "......"

Shu Qing no longer dared to stay in a strange place by herself, and she didn't know what strange people and strange things she had encountered. Ever since she entered the Demon Realm, she hadn't settled down. Su Qing suspects that she has just won all her luck by throwing the dice, which has caused her to be very unlucky now.

Hong Guangyao pinched his eyebrows, "Since I brought you in, I won't leave you." ”

Shu Qing waved his hand, "It's not for this reason, my mana is too weak, I'm afraid I'll ...... again"

Hong Guangyao had to go and open another room, which was next door to Shuqing.

Shu Qing saw his expressionless face, lest he delay his work, "uh...... I'm not tired, whatever you originally wanted to do, you can go now. ”

Red Light glanced at the dark circles under her eyes and said nothing.

Shu Qing looked at him suspiciously, "You don't want to wait until I'm asleep before leaving, do you?" ”

Hongguangyao snorted coldly, "I want to leave no one can stop me, I won't lie to you." Then he got up and left.

Su Qing tiptoed to the wall, put his ear to the wall, and heard the sound of someone walking next door, so he relaxed and fell asleep peacefully.

On top of the high mountains, the summits that should have been covered by snow have cracked into lava.

Above the blazing magma, a giant sword hangs. The blade of the sword was erected and the light was emitted, and the inscription swirled around the long sword. It seems that the mountain is going to be split in the next second.

Shu Qing stood beside the lava, and the wind and snow stabbed her face. Strangely, even though she was standing on the edge of the lava, she couldn't feel a trace of temperature.

Shuqing looked left and right, this mountain towered into the clouds, everywhere in the eyes was a sea of clouds, down is an abyss, there is no end in sight. She shuddered and gathered her robe.

This dream...... Could it be related to the red glow?

Shu Qing tried to stretch out his hand in the direction of the Spirit Holy Sword, and the Spirit Holy Sword gradually shrank into the shape of a normal sword, and fell sideways into Shu Qing's outstretched hands.

A powerful force suddenly struck Su Qing, and before Su Qing could lift the Spirit Holy Sword to block it, he was pushed out. The Spirit Sword took off her hand, and the feeling of weightlessness hit, and she screamed uncontrollably, and the wind and snow cut through the exposed skin.

"Ahh!!h Su Qing suddenly turned over and sat up, his forehead covered with cold sweat.

Su Qingmeng/gasped, looked up and met a pair of dark pupils, her brain was blank, and she didn't know what to say.

Red Guangyao heard Su Qing's screams next door, thought something was going on, and hurried to wake up Su Qing, who was having a nightmare.

"I almost fell into the mud!" Su Qing's face was pale.

Red Radiance's eyes seemed to be looking at a retarded.

Shu Qing: "......"

At this moment, the sky is already bright, although this strange dream has been made, but Su Qing's spirit has recovered as before, and the wound is about to heal, and he can walk freely.

The two of them shuttled through the alleys of Quli, and the Demon Domain was much quieter during the day, not as crowded as the night crowd.

After all, Shu Qing couldn't help but ask, "Cangyijun, have you ever fallen from the top of a high mountain before?" ”

Red Guangyao frowned, "No." Q: What does this do? ”

Shu Qing told him about the dream, and a hint of disbelief flashed in her red eyes.

"I've seen this before, but not in a dream, but when I first touched the Spirit Sword."

Shu Qing was even more confused, could it be that was the location of the Spirit Holy Sword before it returned to the Red Radiance? But why can she dream, if it is said that the red light can be seen because the Spirit Sword chose him, and she ...... Is it just because of the Yan family's bloodline? Judging by Hong Guangyao's reaction, it seems that the Yan family had not encountered this before, or had not told him.

This is the second time I have seen the memory of red light.

Su Qing doesn't have any special habits to probe into other people's past, and this involuntary ability not only makes her feel embarrassed, but also reluctant.

In the midst of their chaotic thoughts, the two of them had come to a dilapidated house.

The house seems to have been uninhabited for a long time, and the plaque is covered with cobwebs.

Red Shine used her mana to push the door open, "crunching".

The yard was full of dust and littered with debris. All the flowers that were left behind and not taken away withered. The doors were locked and shut.

Shu Qing glanced at the person next to him, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, is this to steal someone else's house?

Red Guangyao stood in the middle, his left hand used mana lightly, and several jars scattered around him floated in the air, and he snapped his fingers again, and the jars were placed not far from him in a circle.

A black line appeared on the ground, connecting the jars, and a little white light emanated from the position where Red Guangyao was standing, and he beckoned to Su Qing, who also jumped in and out.

The scene changed, and when Shuqing opened his eyes, he found that he was still standing in the original courtyard, but the courtyard was crowded with people, and the sundries scattered on the ground were also neatly tied, and the other five doors of the house, except for the middle one, were all wide open, and there were people sitting inside.

There was a lot of noise in the courtyard, and the people who came here found the door they wanted to enter, and then joined the crowd and lined up.

Su Qing stepped forward to check and saw that there were characters pasted on each room, such as "fortune telling", "word measurement", "feng shui", etc., which were different.

Su Qing couldn't help but be embarrassed, and Hong Guangyao didn't look like someone who would believe this.

Red Guangyao walked straight to the room in the middle, and the little Taoist priest next to him who greeted the guests hurriedly stopped him.

"Good man, this place is not open, and the priest of the sacrificial wine is in retreat......"

Before the little Taoist priest finished speaking, suddenly another Taoist priest in a dark blue robe came, "Master said to let this adult in." ”

Red Guangyao flicked his sleeves and swaggered in, ignoring the surprised and envious gazes of the people around him. Seeing this, Shuqing hurriedly followed, and when he got closer, he saw that two big words were written above the door in the middle - "Looking for things".

The door creaked shut, and the room was pitch black, and it was daytime, but there was no light in sight, as if it was covered by an impermeable thick cloth.

A slightly sticky/greasy voice rang out, "You're here?" ”

Goosebumps spread all over her body, and the owner of the voice seemed to be hiding in the water to speak.

Hong Guangyao was unexpectedly respectful, bowed and saluted, and said: "Don't say hello, take the liberty to visit, and ask the sacrificial Taoist priest to be strange." ”

The sacrificial Taoist "Gugu" laughed a few times, "Cangyijun, I know what you are looking for. Just ......"

The red light in the house flashed, and after a short period of dazzling, only a few lines of poetry were left - "From afar, the mountains are foggy, and there is no reality up close." Don't ask where to go, just go with your heart. ”

"Cangyijun, what you are looking for is not far from you."

"Also," a pale, water-stained hand reached out from the darkness and nodded at Su Qing's forehead through the void, "this little friend's mana and memories have been sealed by someone with a heart. ”

Shu Qing felt a cold feeling on his forehead, and a cyan mark appeared on his forehead.

"What's the explanation?" Red Guangyao asked.

"Fate is implicated, like silk."

The two of them came out of this place, and Shu Qing was still thinking in his heart, what did the last words of the sacrificial Taoist mean? Could it be that she is closely intertwined with the fate of Red Radiance? Also, what is Red Shine looking for? Is it the thing that suppressed the Spirit Holy Sword as I mentioned before? Something that can suppress a sword......

Shu Qing said: "Cangyijun, aren't you looking for a scabbard?" ”

Red Guangyao groaned slightly, but finally didn't lie to her, and nodded

Everyone knows that there is a Spirit Holy Sword, but they don't know that the Spirit Holy Sword also has a scabbard, but in ancient times, in order to restore its power to the extreme, the original scabbard was destroyed. In order to prevent the accident from happening, the Yan family made another scabbard to prevent the Yan family's bloodline from becoming extinct, causing the Spirit Holy Sword to get out of control.

Since the sword scabbard was cast, it has been hidden somewhere to prevent people with different intentions from using it, and no one knows where it is hidden except for the head of the Yan family.

Hongguangyao said: "Yan He has always been friendly with the Demon Venerable, so it is not surprising that he is hidden in the Demon Domain. It is also difficult for the Ling family's hand to reach here. ”

Su Qing wondered in his heart, the general of the human race is friendly with the boss of the demon race? How strange it sounds.

"You," Hong Guangyao looked at Shu Qing, who unconsciously straightened his back, "Since you are also of the Yan family's bloodline, you must have a sense of the sword scabbard." ”

Shu Qing raised an eyebrow, "Why do you think I'll help?" ”

Red Guangyao laughed, "You have any other choice?" Stuck in the mud, don't think about not taking a stain with you. You are now the object of contention between the various forces. ”

Su Qing pursed her lips and was silent. The two returned to the inn without saying a word.
