Chapter 2 Tsukigi

The Flame Nation is a country and a city, inhabited by millions of people.

The normal operation of such a big city is naturally due to the help of extraordinary power. The origin of the name of the Flame Country is related to a sacred fire in the country.

The flame existed in the Flame Nation, and it was never extinguished, whether it was wind, rain, lightning or thunder.

And the flame burns out of thin air, and no one knows what kind of fuel the flame relies on to survive. Since the Flame Country, there have been several crises, and the Flame Country has been able to survive the crisis safely, and the Holy Flame has contributed a lot.

After Ji Xiao entered the Flame Country, what he heard the most was the legend about the holy fire.

At dusk, in the inn where he lived, several qi refiners appeared, and they were checking the people in the inn one by one. It turned out that the Holy Flame of the Flame Country had been stolen, so the Lord of the Kingdom issued an order to check all the people who had come from outside the Flame Country recently.

When they found out about Ji Xiao, one of the qi refiners said suddenly, "Where did you come from?"

Ji Xiao smiled and said, "I came from outside, and I entered the city today." ”

The Qi Refiner pointed to a string of wooden prayer beads on Ji Liao's body and said, "Show me the prayer beads on your body." ”

Ji Xiao said lightly: "My rosary has nothing to do with what you want to investigate." ”

This rosary was made from a strange tree he found in the mountains and forests, and it was obvious that this qi refiner knew the wonderful use of the rosary and became greedy.

The Qi Refiner sneered: "You are an outsider, you speak so horizontally, I see that you have nothing to do with the theft of the Holy Fire, you go back with me, I will interrogate you properly." ”

Ji Xiao looked at the rest of the Qi Refiners and said, "Are you Qi Refiners of the Flame Country so domineering?"

The rest of the Qi Refiners were silent at all.

The Qi Refiner said: "It's not your turn to evaluate how our Flame Country Qi Refiners act, you'd better go back with us obediently, otherwise you won't have your good fruit to eat." ”

Ji Xiao smiled: "You really want me to go back with you." ”

The Qi Refiner said, "Of course. ”

Ji Xiao smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go with you." ”

The qi refiner looked at Ji Xiao's rosary, revealing greed and said, "Before leaving, you handed over the rosary, I suspect that this is a murder weapon." ”

Ji Xiao did not resist and untied the rosary.

Seeing that he was so obedient, the Qi Refiner said, "It's right that you know each other like this earlier, I won't be too embarrassed for you, you go back and explain things honestly, if it's okay, I'll let you go." ”

Ji Xiao said: "If I'm okay, will you return my rosary?"

The Qi Refiner looked cold and said, "Come with us." ”

Many people in the inn pointed at Ji Xiao, secretly sighing that he was not sensible, it was obvious that the qi refiner had taken a fancy to his rosary, if he had a clever brain, he should have broken his fortune and eliminated the disaster.

Now that I have offended the qi refiner, I can still have good fruits to eat, and when the time comes, let alone keep the rosary, I can't even keep myself.

The qi refiner escorted Ji Yu back, and interrogated a few places on the way, hinting at asking for property, and many outsiders had the mentality that more is better than less, and did not resist.

Therefore, Ji Xiao was the only one who was brought back for interrogation, and along the way, the Qi Refiner sneered at Ji Xiao from time to time.

In the end, Ji Xiao was taken to the dungeon of the prisoners in the Flame Country.

As for the Qi Refiner, he did not enter the dungeon, but happily took the rosary and went to see his immediate boss, that is, the Great Priest of the Flame Country, who was in charge of the prison.

The Great Sikou is called Sogo, and the Qi Refiner is called Chongyi, who is the nephew of the Great Sikou. He relied on being the nephew of the Great Sikou, so he was quite domineering in the Flame Country, especially blackmailing many foreign Qi Refiners.

Sometimes it is when he encounters a few difficult bones and there is a problem, at most he asks his uncle to come forward and make peace with others.

Chongyi also doesn't have a long lesson, and after being reprimanded by the big priest for a few words, he relapses again.

And the great priest has no heirs, and Chongyi is his only nephew, so he can't punish him ruthlessly. What's more, he has a high status in the Flame Country, and Chongyi has not provoked a big basket so far, and all that has been caused is a small trouble, the big Si Kou always thinks that he has gone through several dynasties and is quite powerful, and he has long been jealous of the lord of the country, if he behaves without flaws, I am afraid that he will be even more jealous of the lord of the country, it is better to use his nephew's nonsense, and the matter of self-pollution of pedestrians and ministers, so as to eliminate the lord's vigilance against himself.

The Qi Refiner entered the study of the Great Priest and said, "Uncle, look at the good things I have gotten. ”

With a snap, he put the rosary on the desk of the great priest, looking extremely proud.

The Great Si Kou glanced at the rosary and said in surprise: "This is a stingwood, eating it can make people have divine power, where did you get it?" ”

The qi refiner said triumphantly: "Uncle always said that I don't know how to learn, you see that I didn't recognize this treasure at a glance." As for where it came from, it doesn't matter, now it's a piece of filial piety from my nephew to my uncle. ”

Da Si Kou said: "You kid must have taken it from where again, and it can't make me worry-free, but for the sake of your filial piety, I won't scold you this time, as for the wood, it won't help me much, you can take it yourself." ”

The qi refiner smiled and said, "Yes, my nephew will try it first, and the effect is good, so let my uncle try it." ”

As he spoke, he peeled off a rosary and swallowed it in his stomach.

As soon as the rosary entered his mouth, it turned into a stream of heat, hitting the limbs and bones of the qi refiner, only to see that his stomach began to swell and expand.

At first, Da Sikou didn't think about it, but he thought it was a seizure of the drug, but later he saw that his nephew's whole body was swollen, his body was several times bigger, his face was purple, and he was very painful, so he saw that something was wrong.

"Uncle save me, I'm going to explode. "The Qi Refiner was sweating all over his head.

The Great Priest immediately came up with a trick to try to save his nephew.

Before he could use his magic trick, there was a jump, and the qi refiner burst open.

After a while, the study was full of flesh and bones.

Without waiting for the people from outside to come to the rescue, the great priest came out with a monstrous hatred on his face, and he asked the person who had gone out with his nephew today to ask a few words, and when he learned the truth, he ordered all the people to go to the dungeon.

......

When the Grand Priest led the people to the dungeon, he found that the dark and damp cell had become neat and dry.

There are many unjustly killed ghosts in that dungeon, and they have been accumulating a lot of resentment and wandering in the dungeon. Now all those grievances have dissipated, and even the dungeon still exudes an inexplicable halo.

Da Si Kou was shocked, he had expected that the person who his nephew was guilty of was extraordinary, but seeing this scene in front of him, he realized that his nephew was afraid that he had offended a character he couldn't afford to offend, after all, the means that can eliminate resentment have already involved the mysterious and unpredictable way of the soul, and generally have a great background to be qualified to study the way of the soul.

Although the Flame Country is a first-class powerhouse with tens of thousands of miles around, it is still a small and remote place in the mountain realm, how could such a character suddenly appear, could it be that the Holy Flame was stolen, it really has something to do with this person, and the nephew stumbled by mistake, and he really did the right thing?
