Chapter Twenty-Six: A Year Ago
It's just that the face of this man in this mansion is indifferent and ruthless, which is really prohibitive.
"Congratulations to the young master on his return." In a pavilion in the Sifu Garden, several men in blue robes stood with respectful faces.
"Well, is Lord Sifu okay during the year of this young master's retreat? Did anything happen inside the Hellholes? Without raising his gaze for half a minute, Lige only cared about straightening the sleeves in his hand, and sat down on a chair in the pavilion with a gloomy face.
"A few days after the young lord retreated, Lord Sifu also closed the retreat, I think it should be time to get out of the customs in the next few days, as for the hell cave is also very calm, nothing strange happened, but a year ago...... A year ago...... "one of his subordinates stopped talking, his expression trembling.
"What happened a year ago?"
"A year ago, on August 15, that is, the day of the rebirth of the Phoenix Palace once every three hundred years, the Phoenix Heavenly Fire, which had been burning for seven seven and forty-nine days, should have been extinguished in the early morning of the second day of the reborn person, but for some reason, it suddenly burst out at this time and ignited the holy fire in the Phoenix Tower, and for some reason, it caused the hell fire in the hell cave to collide, and as a result, it burned many people in Phoenix City."
"Oh?!"
With this sound, the expression on Lige's face seemed to have undergone a thousand changes in an instant, and it seemed that there was no expression at all, and his face was still a light cloud, and after a long time, he casually spit out a sentence: "Have you found out the reason?" ”
"It has been found out that it was Prince Luo Xiao in the Phoenix Palace who caused this fire, because of this fire he was sent to the coldest north of the Phoenix Kingdom to defend against foreign invaders, as for why he did this, no one knows, but, before leaving, he became close to a daughter of the Fu Palace."
"Defend against foreign invaders? Became a relative to Fukumiya's daughter? ”
"Yes, the news from the Phoenix Palace says that Luo Xiao has been staying in the north so far, and no one in the Phoenix Palace has seen what this crown princess looks like, let alone where this princess is now."
"Is there such a thing? The newly married princess didn't live in the Phoenix Palace and didn't go north with him? It seems that there must be something wrong with this crown princess, you say, will this heavenly fire be caused by this crown princess? Find it, find it for me, even if it's digging for three nights, you have to find this princess for me and take it to the hell cave. ”
"Yes, the subordinates have sent people around to inquire about the news, but unfortunately, there has been no news of the crown princess for more than a year, and the news from the north also said that there are no female dependents around Prince Luo Xiao, as if there is no such person in this world."
"Keep inquiring, I don't believe that this crown princess can still fly or not."
"Yes."
"By the way, have you asked someone to draw a portrait of this crown princess, and search in the sky and on the ground."
"It's already drawn." A pair of danqing flashed from the subordinate's hand.
"It should be easy to find such a long city, why haven't you seen her for more than a year?"
"My subordinates also think so, such a stunning woman will attract people's attention wherever she goes, but no one has seen her, and no one knows where she is?"
"Keep looking until you find this crown princess."
"Yes."
"Where is Hua Feimeng now?"
"Second Young Master, he should be in Dancheng now."
"In this way, you send someone to Dancheng, tell him to pay more attention to the situation in Dancheng, and at the same time find out if there is any news of the crown princess." ”
"Yes."
In the garden of the Sifu, looking at the subordinates who turned to leave, Lige's heart couldn't calm down for a long time, he was already impatient with the scene of the collision between the Phoenix Heavenly Fire and the hellfire, and his father, Lord Sifu, Bai Hao, was also impatient to wait, he thought that he would not be able to see this scene happen in this life, but who knew that they actually told him that the scene he wanted finally happened.
It seems that his guess is correct, the legend is not false, and he did not wait in vain, if you want to know the way to enter the "Fire Fortress Tomb", you must first find the fuse that can cause the evil fire in the hell cave to collide with the Phoenix Sky Fire, once they find this fuse, it is when they enter the "Fire Fortress Tomb".
And now, this fuse is very likely to be the crown princess who has mysteriously disappeared after falling into the city and the country.
Therefore, at this time, Lige's heart is full of hope and excitement. Yes, he wanted to enter the Flame Tomb, he wanted to know if there was anything he wanted in it, and he had to find this person as soon as possible to fulfill his own will and his father's wish.

On the one hand, Le Ling, who left the mansion, followed Aunt Ma all the way to the mountain, seeing that he had been walking for a long time and had not stopped, his legs and feet began to disobey the call, and Le Ling opened his mouth sickly.
"Aunt Ma, where are you taking me?"
"Nowhere to go, you just come along."
Seeing that Le Ling was stupid and listless like an eggplant beaten by frost, Aunt Ma was too lazy to be angry with her, what kind of anger did she have, as long as she did what Miss Yan said, otherwise her little fate would not be guaranteed.
In the dark, when she was still some distance away from the hell cave, Ma Da Niang saw the clusters of scarlet flames in the hell cave jumping from a distance, which made her heart tremble and her heart couldn't help beating wildly, and her feet were much slower.
Legend has it that this hellfire is very terrifying, and even the phoenix fire in Phoenix City is only worthy of it, which will cause the current scene in the Phoenix Kingdom, and even more, if it were not for the existence of the holy fire in the Phoenix Tower, the Phoenix Heavenly Fire may not be able to fight this hellfire.
But no, not to mention that it is far away, let's just say that a year ago, the evil fire in this hell cave actually alarmed the holy fire in the Phoenix Tower, if it weren't for this, I think that the current Phoenix City must be full of mourning and the people are not living.
And she, Aunt Ma, for this hellfire, she felt even more afraid from the bottom of her heart, before, she was because she couldn't withstand the Phoenix Heavenly Fire and was finally hooked by this hellfire to abolish a few exercises, so she had no choice but to go to the Sifu to be a slave for a lifetime, and make a living.
Now, although she has lived in this mansion all her life, she has only been to the mountains near this hell cave so many times, and each time she is still far away out of helplessness, and now, it is the first time she has come here on this dark night.
"Leling, you go to the place where the open fire is open first, wait for me there, I'll go over there and take a look."
