Suzaku Glimpse Burning Sky Fire Chapter 22: Suzaku Glimpse Burning Sky Fire
The woman hesitated for a while, and finally slowly spoke: "My name is Lu to marry, and I am married." ”
Lu marries ......
What a strange name, still ...... Kind of cute?
Ning Xiaoling was slightly stunned, and it was a little difficult to associate this name with this sword fairy sister with a cold, quiet and indifferent temperament for a while.
The woman who claimed to be married to Lu sighed and said helplessly: "When I was a child, I was thin and dark, and my mother was worried that I would not be able to get married, so she named it Marry and ask for good luck." ”
Ning Changchang smiled and said, "It seems that Miss Lu is going to live up to your mother's kindness." ”
Lu Married knew that he was praising his appearance, was silent for a moment, and said: "Since I am cultivating, I should devote myself to the Tao, although there is a Taoist in the sect, but I am not here." ”
Ning Xiaoling asked, "Do you have to stay away from the world after cultivating the Tao?"
Lu married and said: "Since you are born, you should try not to enter the world, the cause and effect of the world are complex, and the more you are contaminated, the more difficult it will be to get rid of the demon tribulation when you enter the Purple Court." ”
Ning Xiaoling asked again: "Then why does my sister still want to go down the mountain?"
Lu Zhen's heart moved slightly, and his words were still calm: "The demon is in the world, and I have to come." ”
Ning Changjiu suddenly asked, "Since demons can break the way in the world, why do immortal masters want to live outside the world?"
Lu was speechless for a while, she never thought about it, how could people be compared to demons?
Ning Changjiu continued: "I asked Second Senior Brother this question. ”
Lu Marrying immediately asked, "How did he answer?"
Ning Chang said: "The second senior brother said, it is not me who escapes the world, but the mortal dust who avoids me. ”
Lu was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes shimmered, she felt that she understood this sentence, and nodded lightly: "Your senior brother is extraordinary, if he has the opportunity one day, he can see him." ”
Ning Changjiu's eyes suddenly became dazed, in his memory, the second senior brother had already ascended to the Immortal Court along with the other six senior brothers and sisters, in the law of heaven and earth, once he ascended, he would truly transcend the world and never come back.
That's a real death.
Lu Zhan looked at the pair of senior brothers and sisters who depended on each other, but as if his senior brother had already suffered, he sighed faintly in his heart and didn't ask any more questions.
Ning Changjiu smiled and said, "My second senior brother has an excellent demeanor, if you really see it, Miss Lu should be careful." ”
Lu Marrying frowned slightly, his expression was a little annoyed, and his voice was slightly stern: "Although you are kind to me, if you want to enter my door, you must not be so joking and rude, you must know that although there are people in the same path on the cultivation path, there should also be respect and respect between master and apprentice." ”
Ning Changjiu didn't expect his joke to make her so angry, he thought about it, and then asked: "You want to take us as apprentices, but also to cut off this cause and effect?"
Lu Zhan looked at him in some surprise, and nodded lightly after a while: "Although your roots are not as good as your junior sister, your mind is lively." ”
Ning Xiaoling saw that her face was a little serious, and comforted: "I promised my sister, if I can get out alive, we will go to the sect with you to worship the teacher." ”
Lu Yao's face softened slightly, and he looked at Ning Changjiu.
Ning Changchang said calmly: "I want to think again." ”
The woman was a little angry, but if he really saw the smoky and misty immortal mountain like a god digging a cave, how could he have a little thought of returning.
Ning Xiaoling was in a dilemma after hearing this: "If the senior brother doesn't agree, what does it matter if I enter the door first?
Ning Changjiu smiled and patted her head, "Now that the Imperial City is in turmoil, it remains to be said whether we can survive or not." ”
Ning Xiaoling nodded thoughtfully: "Hmm...... It wouldn't be good if the old fox found him. ”
Ning Chang looked at her immature and melancholy face and smiled slightly.
Lu Zaimari looked at them, and for some reason, he always felt a little ...... Be all abroad.
Soon, her thoughts were interrupted.
Outside, it seemed to be a sudden clearing, and the window paper, which had been a dark color, was lit up in large patches.
She screamed with her sword heart, realizing that the old fox had come outside the palace.
Ning Xiaoling also noticed the abnormality, and couldn't help but want to push the window to look, but Ning Changjiu held her hand and shook her head with a solemn expression.
......
......
When the demon fox entered the city, the streets were empty.
Dressed in the skin of this witch lord, he looked like a respected old man, and his figure walked through the straight street without hurry, towards the center of the imperial city.
A hundred years ago, it was still a barren mountain and wild mountain where wild beasts were rampant, but now as far as the eye can see, it is a bluestone paving road, and the city tower rises from the ground.
If it is usual, at this time in the afternoon, even if it rains heavily, the street should be full of people coming and going, but today the imperial city is in trouble, under the strict orders of the officers and soldiers, everyone is closed, saving the innocent from being robbed.
As soon as he stepped into the street, the sound of soldiers' footsteps breaking the rain rang out.
In the small alleys in all directions, a knife came out of its sheath, vibrating through the water droplets, piercing the rain curtain, and the silver light shook coldly, pointing at him one by one.
The rain was very heavy, hitting the helmet and shattering outside the eye socket, the old demon was just standing, and he was demonic, and many people who were already splashed by the rain could not open their eyes, and at this moment they could only see a vague and old figure.
The general at the head held the sword in both hands and looked at him extremely nervously, but the tip of the knife in the rain did not tremble.
The general recognized the old man in front of him, it was the witch master, the great monk he once respected, but at the same time, he could also perceive that the person in front of him was full of demonic energy.
"You're not afraid of me?" the demon fox looked at the person in front of him who pointed the blade directly at him.
The general said, "I just respect the Witch Lord, and I don't want to swing my sword at this body." ”
The demon fox smiled: "But this witch lord doesn't seem to love you, today he even thought about waiting for me to kill the ring, blood sacrifice heaven and earth, and achieve his own avenue, but fortunately, I killed him for you in time." ”
The rain swept across the general's rough cheeks, and he looked at the unfathomable old man in front of him, with fear in his heart, but his body had subconsciously sunk, and his feet were kicking the ground one after the other, ready to exert his strength at any time.
"Hugh is going to slander the Witch Lord......" The general slowly twisted the handle of the knife with his wrist and said coldly.
The demon fox put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "In the end, you still don't dare to make a move on me, you know very well that I can kill everyone here." ”
He looked at the middle-aged general and continued: "Maybe you are not afraid of death, but you should be afraid of the death of your fellow subordinates for no reason. Your Highness asked you to come, in fact, it was just to send you to death, you knew it, but you still brought your subordinates here, your heart, it should be very unpleasant, right?"
The general took a deep breath, his eyes wavered slightly, but his tone was firm: "As the general of Zhao State, I eat the salary of Zhao State, and I should guard the imperial city of Zhao State." ”
The demon fox looked around and asked, "Then have you asked if they are willing to die with you?"
The general shouted in a deep voice: "I haven't asked, but I know the answer, today the country will be overturned, there are no eggs under the nest, for the sake of me and other children in the family, I am also willing to die first." ”
Anyway, the saber in the rain moved, it was a battle-hardened but extremely simple slash, but at the moment when the knife light moved, everyone subconsciously held their breath, the sword light seemed to be unprecedentedly bright, like thunder and lightning flashing through the pupils, and the surrounding soldiers leaned slightly, only feeling that something seemed to be ignited in their chests.
The sword light fell sharply, then stopped.
Everyone was shocked, and the old man pinched the tip of the knife with two fingers, which were extremely steady, more stable than the general's hand holding the knife.
So the knife ended there, and it could not fall again.
"What's your name?" the demon fox asked him.
The general held the hilt of the knife in one hand and pressed the back of the knife with the other, trying to press the knife down, but he still couldn't move an inch.
Seeing that he didn't answer, the demon fox didn't ask, but just stretched out his other hand and pointed to himself, "This person's position can be done by you in the future." ”
Before the general could hear what he was saying, the sound of the knife cracking sounded in his ears, and he leaned forward violently, but did not hit the old man, but slammed into the ground, but fortunately he reacted very quickly, and the moment his body touched the ground, he supported the ground with the hilt of the knife, and suddenly flipped up, and when he calmed down, the old man had already walked towards the back of the long street.
"Stop!" the general shouted, drew a knife from the waist of the soldier beside him, and chased after him, but in the blink of an eye, the old man evaporated into the air, and disappeared completely.
The general stood there for a long time, and his whole body was so hot that the rain fell on the back of his hand as if it were about to hiss.
He stared at the place where the old man had disappeared, and after a long time he slammed the broken knife in his hand back to the ground, and the soldiers around him put down the blades in their hands and began to wipe the sweat from their foreheads.
The general smiled with difficulty and said softly, "Your Highness didn't lie to us, he really didn't dare to kill anyone." ”
At this moment, the old fox had already appeared on another road closer to the palace.
It's not that he can't force the backlash and kill a general.
It's just that he looked at the soldiers who were obviously afraid but still surrounded him, and suddenly thought that this imperial city seemed to be his own imperial city.
"The entire Zhao country was born for me, of course it is my country. ”
Since they are all their own people, there is no need to do anything.
At this moment, he suddenly wanted to take a look at the throne in the palace, thinking about what it would be like if he sat on it and ruled Nanzhou with the soul of the demon clan.
The old man stroked his beard and smiled, lifted his foot lightly, and fell heavily, and the next moment, the heaven and earth thundered and the imperial city shook, and heavy rain poured down from the sky.
Under the archway with the words "phoenix bird singing", the old man has passed, and the towering walls of the palace are pressed in front of him.
The bows and arrows on the city wall were already tightened, and one after another reached out, aiming at the old man who appeared out of thin air.
"The national seal, the ancient scrolls, and the red umbrella are all shields, and the burning pestle is a sword. I see. The old fox turned a deaf ear to those bows and arrows, and just looked at the wind and rain all over the city and muttered to himself: "The immortals calculated well back then, so as to delay the speed of my destruction of the country, but I don't know, this sword, how much sword qi can you Zhao Xiang'er slash?"
The words fell, and on the city wall, iron arrows were fired in unison, and the sound of sharp objects breaking through the air screamed.
But in the eyes of the old man, what is the difference between those and these ordinary raindrops?
Ding Ding Ding!
Time and space around him seemed to freeze.
The iron arrows came to an eerie halt a few feet away from him, only the tips of the arrows rippled with extremely fine water lines.
The old man rolled up his sleeves, and those iron arrows were all bundled into his sleeves like water, and the old man said loudly: "Thank you, Your Highness, for borrowing arrows." ”
He lifted his foot, and in the five-arched gate of the palace entrance, he was about to go towards the middle door.
At this moment, on the throne of the palace hall, the girl who bathed and changed her clothes sat alone in front of the mirror, drawing her eyebrows with a brush.
She was dressed in a bright yellow coat painted with a golden feather phoenix and flame pattern snow waves, sitting alone in the deep palace, in the black and white style of the world, this figure sitting on the throne is particularly bright.
In the mirror is her face under the age of sixteen, still childish, the brush swept across the black and white eyebrows, as if the brush was lightly painted on the most delicate rice paper, with a clear and cold rhyme.
She pulled back her long hair on her thin shoulders, quietly looked at her childish face in the mirror, and looked at it for a long time, until outside the imperial city, the old fox's old and majestic voice sounded, and she seemed to have finally figured out something, smiled, and gradually came back to her senses.
"If you really want to lock him up, then why do you have to do these four keys?" Zhao Xiang'er got up slowly, her robe was praised, the hanging sleeves covered her fingertips, and the slender waist still outlined the soft undulating figure, her eyes slowly moved up, looking at the luxurious and beautiful caisson, and said, "Mother, I understand." I hope that when he meets in the new year, his daughter will not disappoint you. ”
She walked down the stairs.
Outside the city gate, the old fox's foot failed to fall.
Under the surface of the water on the sole of the shoe, a pale red shadow faintly appeared, and the shadow became clearer and clearer, vaguely a bird with flinching wings, its reflection hovering in the stagnant water, as if under the stagnant water was also a big world of freedom and freedom.
At that moment, the old fox, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, suddenly gave birth to a strong sense of vigilance in his heart.
He wanted to step on the phantom in the water, but he never stopped.
In the palace, a clear sound sounded, and the sky was clear.
Beneath the stagnant water, the fiery phoenix swooped down like an arrow.
And the swooping of that world, from the perspective of the old fox, is against the fire, and the speed is getting faster and faster.
As it approached the world above the water, the figure of the fire phoenix grew larger and larger, and in a few breaths, the rainy land outside the imperial city was full of shadows of its wings waving.
At this moment, it was as if the entire surface of the water was on fire.
That temperature has not yet penetrated the barrier of the stagnant water world and turned into real heat, but everyone can have a hunch that the barrier between the surface world and the real world will be broken at any time.
"Vermilion Bird Glimpse Burning Sky Fire?" the old fox's heart moved, and this proverb suddenly came out.
It's just that he was confused for a moment, and the old fox's eyes were resolute: "It's just a fake, how can you be a real Vermilion Bird?"
Having said that, the moment the water surface rippled, the figure of the old fox still swept backwards.
The figure of the fire phoenix was pulled out of the water, like a flying arrow like lightning, like a meteorite like a flowing fire.
At the moment when it broke out of the water, there seemed to be an invisible silk thread connecting it with the figure of the old fox, which could not be cut and melted.
Zhao Xiang'er had already walked out of the palace hall.
The bows and arrows on the walls were fired again.
Zhao Xiang'er held the Vermilion Bird Burning Pestle high, and at this moment her spirit was one with the fire bird that protected the city.
And after a hundred zhang, the old fox is also unwilling to retreat, the Vermilion Bird Burning Pestle was originally the sword left by the immortal to cut him, and now the sword is close in front of him, although he has hidden worries, but after all, it is not the one that cut him back then, so there is not much fear.
The old fox's figure stopped, the three souls were intertwined, not moving at all, one hand wiped the fingers in front of him and once again cast the condensed sword on the Fenghu Lake, and the other hand swung out at the same time to return all the arrows that were gathered in the sleeve.
The iron arrows in the air struck each other, and they fell to the ground one after another in the crisp sound of iron beads falling on the plate.
The figure on the ground collided with the Hokage.
Those were two fires.
I couldn't tell who was hotter and who was brighter, but they were entangled with each other and rose into the air, turning into bright pillars of light that soared into the sky.
The rain burned into fog, the clouds shattered into chips, and the bright light waterfall poured into the imperial city, the near side seemed like the sun in front of the sun, and the far side also seemed like the fine light of the bright moon shaking down.
In front of the palace, Zhao Xiang'er wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, but her eyes stared at the pillar of light without blinking, and she didn't know when she had shed tears.
