Chapter 39: Playing with Fire

It was July, the weather was dry, thirty miles northwest of Taozhou, there was a dense forest burning Zhurong, and the smoke was billowing out. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

The fire was raging, Xiao Wu and Qingtian shuttled through the woods where the fire was burning, and after a while, both of them escaped from the dense forest, looking back at the smoke and fire that rushed to the sky, Xiao Wu couldn't help but look at the inexplicably excited Qingtian around him, and opened his mouth to ask.

"How did this forest burn so quickly, and then the fire was lit, and the whole forest was burned. ”

In the big eyes that flashed on a sunny day, he looked at the fire in front of him with brilliance, heard Xiao Wu's question, and replied casually.

"You don't understand this, the blood bait vine is the most yin and cold thing, but it prefers the yang and dry qi, just like it uses the flesh and blood of living beings as nourishment, and it will also greedily devour it when it encounters sunlight and fire, but this will damage the growth of the blood bait flower. ”

Listening to Qingtian's explanation, Xiao Wu suddenly realized and said.

"I see, that's why the people who keep the Blood Bait Vine will choose this quiet forest, and the tall and dense canopy can prevent the sun from shining on the Blood Bait Vine. ”

Qingtian looked at Xiao Wu in surprise, his eyes were full of disbelief, but the sly in his expression was not very well concealed.

"I didn't expect it, you actually have brains, and you know how to draw inferences. ”

"I'm not angry, I'm really not angryΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Xiao Wu calmed his heart.

Seeing that Xiao Wu didn't reply, Qingtian said with a bright smile on his face.

"As soon as this blood bait vine sees the fire, it will take the initiative to absorb it, and the miasma it spits out is itself flammable, so this forest will naturally catch up. ”

As he spoke, Qingtian seemed to feel a little sorry.

"It's a pity that the miasma in this forest is not strong enough, otherwise when the fire is lit, a big fireball will burst into the sky, which is beautiful. ”

Looking at the sunny day that was depicting the explosion scene with great interest, Xiao Wu broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and said secretly in his heart.

"How much you like to set fires, and why you know so well about it. ”

While enjoying the fire on a sunny day, a heart-rending cry suddenly came from the forest.

"Ah!!h

I saw that Qingtian looked like a matter of course, and said to Xiao Wu.

"The old witch is crazy, let's go quickly, so that she won't come out to find us again. ”

Grandma's angry appearance couldn't help but appear in his mind, and Xiao Wu also smiled and nodded in reply.

"Sunny girl, this place is not far from Beiguo City, why don't we go there first?"

Qingtian waved his hand and patted Xiao Wu's shoulder, and said deliberately funny.

"Xiao Wu, you don't always be a girl, a girl, our children in the rivers and lakes are not informal, you can call me Sister Qingtian in the future. ”

Looking at the sunny day that he was a year or two younger, Xiao Wu couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

"As for Beiguo City, there is nothing to do left and right, this girl will go there for a spin and play for a few days. ”

Qingtian took a brisk step, turned around and walked in the direction of Beiguo City, Xiao Wu shook his head helplessly, and followed, leaving only the miserable cry of his grandmother behind him echoed.

The two of them were not in a hurry, they walked unhurriedly, and talked a few words from time to time, but most of them were laughing at Xiao Wu on a sunny day, if Yan Zhao was also here at this time, they would definitely be surprised to find that all this was like a copy of Xiao Wu and Yan Zhao when they got along, but Xiao Wu's identity was adjusted.

More than ten miles away, but walked for more than an hour, the two arrived near the broken temple outside Beiguo City, Xiao Wu looked at it from a distance and found that Yan Zhao was circling at the gate of the broken temple, and behind him was the white-bearded Li Qi Li County Book, as well as more than 20 soldiers.

Xiao Wu looked up at the sky, it was indeed the noon agreed upon by the two, and Xiao Wu's experience almost forgot about it, and immediately shouted

"Brother Yan, I'm back. ”

Hearing Xiao Wu's voice, Yan Zhao raised his eyes and saw the figures of Xiao Wu and Qingtian, hurriedly greeted them, and said.

"Oh, brother, you're going to kill me. I thought something had happened to you, and I wanted to look for you but didn't know where to go, so I had to wait here. ”

Seeing the sincerity of what Yan Zhao said, Xiao Wu was a little surprised, and there was a lot of apology in his words.

"Brother Yan is worried, and my brother is ashamed. ”

"You and my brother, why bother to see you like this, it's good that my brother comes back safely. By the way, I don't know who this girl is?"

Before Xiao Wu could introduce him, Qingtian said first.

"Big man, my name is Qingtian, what's your name?"

Obviously, Yan Zhao was stunned by the straightforwardness of the sunny day, even if it is a child of the rivers and lakes, there are few women who are so straightforward and not inferior to men on the sunny day, Xiao Wu hurriedly said when he saw this.

"This is Brother Yan Zhaoyan, and he is also a chivalrous warrior who eliminates violence and peace. ”

Qingtian looked at Xiao Wu, looked at Yan Zhao carefully, and then leaned closer to Xiao Wu's side, and whispered in Xiao Wu's ear.

"Brother Yan, I think it's Uncle Yan, no matter how you look at him, he's forty years old, is it really good for you to call him a brother like this?"

Xiao Wu felt the breath of Rulan in his ears, scratched his ears, couldn't help but blush his cheeks, and after a while, he replied in a low voice.

"Brother Yan is just a little older, but he is actually just over twenty years old. ”

Looking at Yan Zhao who was puzzled in surprise, Qingtian's face was full of regret, and he stood on tiptoe and patted Qingtian's small hand on Yan Zhao's broad and thick shoulder, everything was silent.

At this time, behind Yan Zhao, the seventy-year-old Li Qi was bent over and walked over quickly, and Li Qi, who had a melancholy face, saw Xiao Wu, and then stretched the depression between his eyebrows.

"Little Martial Arts Shaoxia, it's great that you're okay. ”

Xiao Wu solemnly bowed to the old man, and there was no hint of laughter in his words.

"Thank you Grandpa Li for your concern. ”

"It's okay, I don't know if the young man's trip went well, did he get rid of the devil?"

Seeing that Li Qi asked about his grandmother, Xiao Wu shook his head and said.

"That old witch has extraordinary means, and the boy escaped from the clutches with the help of this sunny girl. ”

Without waiting for Li Qi to speak, Yan Zhao on the side exclaimed.

"Ah, brother, that old witch is seriously injured, and she still has the strength to fight with you?"

"I thought so too, so I went to pursue, but I didn't expect that the old witch had other means to save her life. ”

Qingtian, who had been standing there with his hands behind his back, interjected at this time.

"Even if a master of the Xuan True Realm is seriously injured, where will it be easy to deal with. ”

Even though Li Qi didn't know martial arts, he also knew what the words Xuanzhen Realm represented, so he was inevitably worried in his heart, and hurriedly asked.

"What if the demon recovers from his injuries and comes back then?"

What flashed in his mind was the fire in the forest, and Xiao Wu chuckled and said to reassure Li Qi.

"Grandpa Li, don't worry, it's not all for nothing this time, even if grandma recovers from her injuries, I'm afraid she won't have the energy to harm the people of Gongzhou. ”

As he spoke, Xiao Wu turned around and pointed behind him, and several people looked in the direction Xiao Wu pointed, and they could vaguely see that there seemed to be a black pillar of smoke rising in the distance in the sky, and there was a faint flash of fire.

Just when Xiao Wu was smiling and wanted to explain the matter to Yan Zhao and Li Qi, suddenly, Xiao Wu's expression seemed to be eroded by frost and became dignified.

Xiao Wu, who was blushing, looked into the distance, and a figure galloped forward, even if he was several miles away, Xiao Wu could feel the monstrous killing intent and hatred under that bloodstained face.

She actually chased after her!
