"Let's go, go inside and practice. I will carefully explain to you the mental method and internal force cultivation method of the Nine Yang Burning Heaven Technique, and I will guard it by the side, so that you will not encounter any danger. ”

Zong Xin said depressedly: "Why do you have to practice here? Can't you go back and practice?"

"No, you must be here to cultivate the Nine Yang Burning Heaven Technique, the reason is very simple, if your body has not been under the high temperature for a long time and cannot adapt to it, even if you are taught the Sixth Yang, you will be scorched by your own scorching true qi. So you have to adapt to this high temperature by yourself first, and then slowly cultivate. ”

Yeluzhen walked into a cave first, and when he arrived near the cave, Zongxin felt that the temperature here was higher than in other places, because there was no snow nearby. After entering the cave, you feel a hot current coming to you, except for the pungent smell in the cave, everything else is good.

Of course, Zongxin has the Five Poison Divine Chapters to protect the body, and these poisonous gases are nothing to him at all. It's just that the farther he goes, the higher the temperature gets, and finally there is a red and yellow light in the cave.

Out of this cave, I came to a relatively open place, which seemed to be the entrance to hell, and there were pools of fire everywhere, large and small, and in them were tumbling and flowing magma. It's clearly an active volcano, and it looks like it's very active.

There are very few places outside the cave where you can put your feet, except for the fire pool, the rest of the place is semi-solidified magma, the temperature is also very high, and it is very fragile, one will accidentally fall into the magma, if unfortunately falling, I am afraid that there will not be even bone slag left.

Yeluzhen jumped directly and stood dead on a volcanic rock, no matter what the condition of the volcanic stone itself was, Yeluzhen's light work could ensure that he would not fall.

"Come down, it should be about the same time to practice here. Don't worry, with me by your side, you won't die. ”

Although Zong Xin was a little scared, he still jumped down with Yelu Zhen, and then sat cross-legged next to a fire pool to carry the internal strength of the Nine Yang Burning Heaven Technique, the whole person seemed to be wrapped in a fireball, and the temperature around it was already very high, plus Zong Xin's true qi almost melted the magma stones around the fire pool again, and the range of all fire pools expanded a lot.

Yelu Zhen closed his eyes slightly beside him, guarding Zong Xin's side, these temperatures are nothing to him at all, every time the Jiuyang Burning Heaven Technique rises one layer, the temperature will double or even several times, and Yelu Zhen, who has practiced the Jiuyang Burning Heaven Technique to the highest level, can almost take a bath in the magma, and his body will not be affected at all.

Half a month later

On the day of the most important fire festival in Khitan, the entire Linhuang Mansion was full of bonfires, and all their Khitan people were guarding next to the bonfire, and the temperature was getting colder and colder, although the Central Plains had not yet reached winter, but it had begun to snow in Linhuang Mansion. Gathering around the fire to barbecue meat, drink, sing and dance, this is the happiest time of the year in the Khitan, they have to stay in front of the fire all day, and receive the baptism of firelight.

The Khitan people are cremated from time to time, they all believe that the flame is a gift given to them by the ancestors, the souls of the ancestors are in the flames, the light produced by the flame is the purest and greatest, as long as they accept the baptism of the fire, the children can grow up healthily, and the elderly will live a long life.

Even if you don't have such a beautiful yearning, it's not bad to have a barbecue and drink in front of the fire once in a while.

Tianya never understood why the Eighteen Riders of Youyun liked to raise a large campfire so much, and then roast meat and drink wine in front of the campfire, but today he finally understood, it turned out that this was the tradition of the Khitan people, who believed that the fire light was the purest light, even greater than the sun's light.

At this time, in the Khitan Palace, all the important ministers and empresses and princes gathered in front of various fires, also drinking wine and barbecue. This is the only time that the Khitan Fire Festival has been spent in the imperial palace, because the palace has died, and the next emperor has not yet been announced, so they can only hold this fire festival in the imperial palace, which is usually held near the bowl.

The bowl is the emperor's tent, the Khitan emperors actually did not spend much time in the palace, they kept traveling around the country in the tent, and all the policies were decided in the bowl. This year's Fire Festival makes people feel extremely lonely, so there is a lot less laughter.

All the important ministers came to the palace, including Yelu Anduan's father and son and Yelu Ruan. The bonfire was divided into four parts, all of which were where the various forces gathered, and the heir and the queen were in the same place near the fire, and everyone sat in a circle and sat upright, with raw meat and hot wine in front of them.

Yelu Jing's face was pale, because Ye Lu Zhen announced to all the princes before he left that the next emperor was definitely not Ye Lu Jing, and everyone else had high expectations for themselves, if it wasn't Ye Lu Jing, it would be possible for anyone. So they never left the palace, waiting for Yeluzhen to announce this important matter.

In fact, no matter who Yeluzhen supports, that person will definitely be able to become the emperor and unify the entire Khitan, there is no doubt about it. Even if Empress Xiao and Yelu Anduan oppose it, it's useless, it's a big deal to split the Khitan, but with Yeluzhen's peerless martial arts plus his attainments in the art of war and his prestige among the people, one day the Khitan will be able to be integrated again, and Empress Xiao and Yelu'an can't fight Yeluzhen.

Of course, there are a few new faces in this most important table. Behind Jerusarg sat his master, a scrawny old man, who also had a deer-headed cane beside him, almost no hair on the top of his head, and a few white hairs on both sides, which seemed to be not far from death, but many people knew that this was just a façade, because as early as ten years ago, everyone thought that he was not far from death, but he has always been strong and alive.

This person is Yelu Sage's master, Wan Yanming, the chief imperial physician of the Liao State. This person is not a Khitan, but a Jurchen tribe, the Liao State was not a Khitan tribe in the first place, and the Jurchens also accounted for a lot of weight in the Liao State, and there were many Jurchen ministers in the dynasty, as well as the Jurchen royal family.

Yelu Deguang's attitude towards the Jurchens was far inferior to that of the Han Chinese, and the Jurchens were very similar to the Khitans, so the Jurchens were directly incorporated into the Khitan, except for the custom of retaining their surnames, the law was completely enforced in accordance with the laws of the Khitan, except for the Han people, one country, two systems.

Wan Yan Ming can know a lot of things when he sits behind Jelu Sage, and Jelu Sage must have agreed to some conditions of Wan Yan Ming, so Wan Yan Ming will fully support Jelu Sage to ascend the throne and become emperor. It is estimated that it is to let the Jurchens gain more power.

In fact, this should be the hometown of the Jurchen people, the Jurchen people are very similar to the Khitans, they are also mostly nomadic, but the Khitans established power first, and established the Liao Dynasty after conquering the tribes. The Liao State, which had already formed a scale, was far superior to the Jurchen tribes, so it went all the way south, from the extreme north to Shangjing Linhuang, and then to Zhongjing, Tokyo, and even harvested the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun.

The Jurchens did not react at all and became residents of the Liao State, and some people were more flexible, began to study and study, and worked hard to revive the Jurchens. But most people still go with the flow, and they can only endure being bullied by the Khitans.

Wan Yanming is a rare genius in the Jurchen clan, he has learned medical skills since he was a child, and practiced a good martial arts, his medical skills are unique, and he treats diseases and goes to the roots, so he was promoted to the imperial doctor by Yelu Deguang. Wan Yanming didn't have much ideals and ambitions, he only hoped that the Jurchens could gain more power, at least not be driven away by the Khitans for no reason when grazing. Or when it comes to paying taxes, you don't have to push too hard, because the Jurchens are indeed too poor.

Yelu Deguang not only admired Yeluming's kung fu in medicine, but also admired his kung fu in using poison. Later, he found out that Yan Ming's martial arts were also very exquisite, so he asked Jelu Sagar to worship him as a teacher, hoping that the royal family could learn more martial arts and not hang himself on a tree in Yeluzhen.

In this way, Wan Yan Ming became the master of the second prince Jelu Sage, and Wan Yan Ming can be said to be dedicated and very loyal to the second prince. He had been secretly helping Jerusag, firstly because of his mentorship, and secondly, because of Jeruzag's promise to him.

Jerusage has indeed done a good job over the years, and he has done his best to give the Jurchens more grazing areas, and he has also made a great contribution to taxation. Wan Yanming was grateful for this, so he definitely supported Yelu Sage, even if he did not hesitate to fight for an old life.

There was no one around the third prince Yelu Tiande, because his martial arts were very ordinary, and he did not worship under the famous teacher. In fact, Yelu Tiande has many opportunities, and he can even worship Yelu Zhen's disciple, but he took the initiative to refuse, because Yelu Tiande believes that no matter how high a person's martial arts are, it is useless, and people who govern the country need more intelligent minds.

Yelu Tiande's cognition is not wrong, after all, the emperor cannot be a good emperor every time, manage the country well, and do the right thing with the right people is a good emperor, and it is a rare good emperor. But it is not easy to do this, Yelu Tiande has read a lot of books, and although he is still quite talented, he is still far from being as smart as those who are really smart.

The fourth prince Yelu Enemy Lie was the most stunned, and his temper was also the most hot, and at this time there was a mysterious man sitting behind him, this person was dressed in a black robe, with beautiful black hair slightly curly, two mustaches, and a deep scar on the left cheek of the left eye.

This person has a good appearance, a calm expression, and his age is probably over 30 years old, and he looks very heroic. Sitting cross-legged behind Jeru, he seemed to be absent, often ignoring his presence. Maybe other people can't see it, but people with slightly higher martial arts know that this person is a master, and he is a rare master, although he is not very old, his martial arts should be very high.
