Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Red Flame Grass That Has Been Tampered With
The crack is so narrow that only one person can enter. After www.biquge.info the two of them went in sideways, they gradually widened after walking out of more than ten zhang.
As soon as you enter the mountain, there is a heat wave, and the temperature difference between you and the outside of the mountain is very large. Before I could see the magma lake, a pungent smell of sulfur greeted me, making ordinary creatures reluctant to approach it.
Mu Chen and the others covered their mouths and noses, carefully paying attention to the movements around them, and marching slowly.
The cave was silent, save for the slight footsteps of the two of them, and the rolling heat made their foreheads dripping with sweat, but it didn't stop them.
There was silence all around, except for the sound of bubbles bursting from the lava lake. The stone walls in the belly of the mountain are hot and bare, and people have to suspect that the elixir can be born in the belly of the mountain.
After a long time, the two of them finally came to the top of the magma lake, and the heat wave was even more breathtaking, and the whole mountainside was red, and the two of them were roasted on the cliff as if they were roasted by fire.
"Brother Chen, where do you look!" After the two came to the edge of the cliff, Wu Yao pointed to a small red seedling growing above the magma lake at his feet.
The belly of the mountain is empty, and the magma in the magma lake is like molten iron burned by a blacksmith's shop, red and white. In this huge mountain, the two of them are as small as two ants.
On the cliff directly below them, the red seedling caught the eye like a fire. It is rumored that the grass must be hot and sunny to give birth to seedlings, and this is exactly what happens here. I don't know how many years this fairy grass has grown before it will be so red and fully mature.
Wu Yao took out all the items she had prepared from the Qiankun bag, while Mu Chen picked up the small shovel she had prepared and pinned it to her waist, trapped one end of the rope on the slightly hot rock, and tied the other end to her body, carefully crawling down, slowly approaching the fairy grass.
The heat down there was overwhelming. Fortunately, Mu Chen's cultivation was fire-based true qi, and this kind of scorching heat would not cause much harm to him. He even felt that if he could cultivate in this kind of place, maybe his cultivation would improve much faster.
It didn't take long for him to come to the front of the Red Flame Grass, and when he saw this Red Flame Grass up close, he frowned slightly, only to see that the Red Flame Grass was obviously a little wilted, and it was not like it grew naturally here, and its roots were rooted in the rocks, but it looked like someone had deliberately planted it here.
Mu Chen seemed to think of something, his expression suddenly changed, he looked at Wu Yao, who was slightly anxious on the cliff, he couldn't care about the red flame grass anymore, and after throwing the small shovel into the magma lake at his feet, he immediately climbed up quickly.
"Don't move!" Mu Chen had just climbed a few steps up when Wu Yao became nervous and aimed a dagger at the rope that bound Mu Chen.
Mu Chen stopped climbing and looked up at Wu Yao who was standing on the cliff. At this moment, he finally completely understood that all that Wu Yao did was just to set himself up.
Is the girl above the same girl who used to beg behind her and keep each other warm? Why did she become so terrible after two years of not seeing each other?
Mu Chen's heart seemed to have been smashed hard at this moment, and he felt like he was about to suffocate. However, his expression was very calm, and he just said lightly: "Is this what you brought me in? If you want to kill me, you can do it now!"
Wu Yao watched Mu Chen's every move, and said emotionally: "Brother Chen, I don't want to do this, you forced me!"
"If you were willing to hand over the exercises, you wouldn't be what you are today! Brother Chen, you used to love me so much, isn't the relationship between our brother and sister as good as a set of exercises? In the past, you would rather be hungry yourself than let me eat first, why do you have to push back when you are asked to share your exercises?"
"Since you don't treat me as a sister, then you are no longer my brother Chen, today you either hand over the exercises, or I will cut the rope and let you fall into the magma lake!"
Wu Yao's face showed a hint of madness, and even some nervousness. She felt that Mu Chen was no longer the same as before, and Mu Chen also felt that she had become far from what she had been.
At this moment, Mu Chen was completely dead. The current Wu Yao is no longer the girl she was two years ago. He showed a sarcastic smile and stared at her silently, at this moment, Mu Chen's feelings for Wu Yao were more pitiful than hateful!
Mu Chen didn't speak, Wu Yao was a little at a loss, and continued to threaten: "Brother Chen, I'm not scaring you! If we continue to stalemate like this, once the rope is scorched, it will break by itself, and I won't be able to help you at that time." I know you don't know how to fly yet, so it's worth losing your life to keep a set of exercises?"
Just as Mu Chen was about to speak, Qin Yulou walked out of the crack, with a cold smile on his face, and stood beside Wu Yao, looking at Mu Chen hanging under the cliff.
Mu Chen was not surprised, he had thought of it just now, if it wasn't for Qin Yulou's instructions, Wu Yao would not have used himself as bait to trick Mu Chen into coming to this inaccessible place.
"Senior Brother Mu, it's all like this, I won't be polite to you! As long as you hand over the exercises, I will let you come up immediately, you are a smart person, no matter how precious things are, they can't be more important than your life!"
Qin Yulou was very decided, Mu Chen would definitely hand over the exercises. If it were him, or someone else, he would believe that he would choose his life between the two, there is no doubt about that.
Mu Chen's face had a trace of sadness on his face, and he said in a low voice: "Senior Brother Qin is right, the exercises are just things outside the body, where is it important to have your own little life? Although my Nine Turns Nirvana Gong is an immortal method, compared to my life, it is not worth mentioning! It's just that I have nothing to love in my life, alas, Senior Brother Qin still cut the rope and send me away!"
Qin Yulou frowned slightly, he only knew that what Mu Chen was cultivating was a higher-level exercise than all the existing fire exercises of the Wuji Immortal Sect, but he didn't expect that Mu Chen's exercises would be the Immortal Sutra, if it was really the Immortal Sutra, then this time it could be regarded as a big profit, and it was no wonder that Mu Chen would hide it.
The Immortal Sutra, which can be cultivated directly to the point of becoming an immortal, is unimaginable for a disciple who is mixed with the Wuji Immortal Sect.
Qin Yulou's expression became solemn, which made him feel even more that he had to get his hands on this exercise, perhaps, this would be the biggest opportunity in his life.
The smile on his face disappeared, and he said in a low voice: "Senior brother, why bother, you and I have no grudges, and killing you will not do me any good! If you are willing to share it with me, I will become brothers in life and death with you! You and my brothers study this immortal method together, and they can also confirm each other, and when the time comes, you and my brothers will laugh together and be proud of the human world, wouldn't it be beautiful?"
Mu Chen sneered in his heart, he dared to conclude that if he really let Qin Yulou get an immortal method, he and Wu Yao would be immediately wiped out, what kind of brothers and Taoist couples were not worth mentioning in front of this kind of person.
He smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that I don't want to share, it's just that I don't want to share it with you! Maybe you don't know my feelings for Yao Mei, you and I are rivals in love, I would rather die than hand over this immortal scripture to you! If I don't have a relationship with Yao Mei in this life, then what's the point of me living? Since my heart is dead, Senior Brother Qin might as well do me one last favor and cut this rope!"
Wu Yao's eyes widened on the side, staring at Mu Chen in disbelief. She knows very well what kind of emotions Mu Chen has for her, there can never be any love between men and women, just the righteousness of brother and sister, but she doesn't understand, why Mu Chen would say such things at this time, what good is it for him?
She looked at Mu Chen in a daze, but Qin Yulou on the side glanced at her and said to Mu Chen: "Senior brother, don't have such thoughts of suicide, if you like Yao'er, I will return her to you!"
Wu Yao turned his head and looked at Qin Yulou's fiery eyes, unable to believe that such words came out of Qin Yulou's mouth. When Qin Yulou said this, she finally understood why Mu Chen would make up such a lie.
He, this is to take revenge on me and make me completely break with Qin Yulou!
