Finally seeing Chai Shien and the others, Liao Shui thought that the next road would be easier, but he didn't expect that something changed in a blink of an eye. Compared to the last experience, at least Qingbu stayed by her side, which comforted her a little.

"Master, where are we?" Qingbu stood nervously beside Liao Shui, everything here made her feel extremely frightened. There was a raging flame on the ground, and even though she couldn't feel the scorching temperature and wouldn't be burned, she was scared.

"Don't, don't be afraid, there's a master here!" To be honest, Liao Shui was not much calmer than Qingbu. In the midst of the fire, she didn't even dare to move. The green cloth tugged at the corner of her clothes, and a small face wrinkled into a ball.

Liao Shui didn't want to lose face in front of her apprentices, and she didn't want Qingbu to see her timidity, so she had to hold on, and pulled Qingbu forward, pretending to be indifferent in the building and said, "Follow a good master, maybe you can hit a pheasant or a hare in front." When the time comes, Master will roast it for you to eat, not to mention how fragrant it tastes!"

In the past few years, Qingbu has learned a lot from Liao Shui, but the most true thing is Liao Shui's gluttony. Hearing that there was something delicious, Qingbu couldn't be afraid, raised his face and said, "Is it as delicious as the roast pigeon that Uncle Yun gave to Master that time?"

Once upon a time, Yun Song wrapped a roasted golden and crispy pigeon in a dried lotus leaf and sent it to Yijian to satisfy Liao's hunger. Originally, Liao Shui didn't plan to share the delicious food specially sent by her beloved Senior Brother Yun with Qingbu, but Qingbu pitifully blinked her big watery eyes and stood outside the door silently, just looking at her without speaking, making Liao Shui feel that if she really ate alone, she would definitely be blamed by the gods in the sky, so she shared one leg to taste it, but she didn't expect it to be remembered by Qingbu.

"Of course!" Thinking of Yun Song, Liao Shui couldn't help but have a sense of courage, and his hand holding Qingbu tightened.

The master and apprentice had not walked far before they vaguely saw that there seemed to be a figure shaking in front of them. Liao Shui couldn't help but feel happy, thinking that he had met other companions, so he immediately walked a few steps closer and chased after him, but before she could speak, Liao Shui was stunned!

The man standing in front of her was ragged, with messy hair, and looked like a beggar. It wasn't enough to frighten her, what really frightened her was that the man was standing on the tinder, twisting and struggling in pain, but still couldn't escape the pain of being burned by the flames. His skin was burned black, and a burnt smell similar to a roasted pigeon came, and Liao Shui immediately covered his mouth to prevent himself from spitting out!

"Master, he!" The boss with Qingbu's eyes glared, Liao Shui covered her mouth, "Don't make a sound!" The master and apprentice took a few steps back, and were about to turn around and flee, when the person in front of them suddenly turned around and pleaded with them with a painful face, "Help me, please show mercy, save me!"

"I, we're new here, I don't know anything!" In a panic, Liao Shui said incoherently, "I don't know how to help you, you, you better find someone else!" The man fell to his knees and was almost annihilated by the flames, "No, I have been burned here for three hundred years, and I have never seen anyone else except you! If you don't help me, I'm afraid I will burn here for another three hundred years!"

"Three hundred years?" Liao Shui was taken aback, although she knew that this place had only existed for a few hours, but that person felt that he had been burned by fire here for three hundred years, what kind of despair and helplessness was that? Thinking of this, Liao Shui couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, "Then, what can I do to help you?"

Seeing that she was willing to help, the man was afraid of missing this opportunity, so he immediately said, "As long as you kill me, I will be free!"

"What?" Liao Shui was frightened into a cold sweat, and immediately waved his hand and said, "No, no, this can't work, I won't do this!" In Liao Shui's mind, killing one person will create a sin and damage a point of yin morality. Besides, the person in front of her has no grievances with her, so why do you have to hurt his life?

"Only by killing me can I not suffer from the fire. Do you know what it is to be burned by the flames all the time, to be miserable, to be unable to survive and to die?" the man said sadly, "Perhaps for others, death means sorrow and despair, and the pain of separation, but for me it is a great joy! If you are willing to do so, I will regard you as a great benefactor for eternal life!"

"No, no, I can't do it!" Liao Shui turned his back, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes. She was very conflicted in her heart, on the one hand, she didn't want to and couldn't easily end a person's life, but on the other hand, she also understood that what the man said was right, only death could free him!

"Master, what should we do?" Qingbu couldn't help but say when he saw that Master hadn't spoken for a long time, "It's better for Master to fulfill him, seeing him so painful, how can Master bear it?" Liao Shui said, "You are still young, what do you know? Master can't kill someone for no reason and harm his life!"

"But by doing that, you're helping him, Master, why can't you see through it?" Qingbu looked a little anxious, "Life is not the happiest and happiest thing, and death is not just dark and painful. Rather than living as a walking corpse, it is better to be reincarnated as soon as possible, and maybe you can be happier!"

Liao Shui looked at Qingbu in disbelief, "Who taught you to say that?" Qingbu shook his head, "No one taught me to say this, I just saw that person was in pain and wanted to help him!"

"No, life is the most precious, in just a few decades, there are many things that can be done, and there are many things that will be experienced. Some of these things are good and some are bad. Some are happy, some are sad. We can't deny the bad side because of the bad side, just like the man who has been struggling in the fire for 300 years, but that doesn't mean he will continue to suffer. Maybe soon, he'll find a way out of it. Would it really be right if we summarily ended his life before then?"

Qingbu was silent, but soon, she said firmly, "No, Master, no matter whether the time here exists, he must have used many ways to save himself in the past three hundred years in his memory, but none of them succeeded, Master, why do you believe that in the near future, he will be able to surpass these three hundred years of efforts and find a solution to the problem?" Liao Shui was speechless by her question, and in a daze, Qingbu suddenly broke free from her hand, and with a flash of sword light, he cut the man's throat!
