There was a rattling sound on the stage, and the background buildings slowly collapsed, transitioning to the next scene.
The audience was silent, already immersed in it.
Only some of the musicians were playing loud music and couldn't help but look at Ning Zhuo, who was at the top of the stage. They were surprised. This young monk really had a skill, and his control skills were so skillful that they were almost the same as Li Leifeng during his lifetime.
Ning Zhuo's eyes flashed, and his whole body was covered in sweat.
Taking advantage of the gap between the stage changes, he contacted the dragon fire spirit through the human life thread: "Dragon fire spirit!"
"I am outside the Immortal Palace and can influence Ning Xiaohui to this extent through the thread of human life. This is the limit."
"From now on, I can only rely on you!"
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit roared urgently: "No, Young Master Ning Zhuo."
"My authority is restricted and I can't..."
Before he finished speaking, Ning Zhuo interrupted him: "I'm sorry, the next scene is about to begin. I can't protect myself now."
"Over there in the Immortal Palace, you can only win!"
Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit:......
The palace of a powerful official was built on the stage, and the light was dark.
The sound of Jinghu was continuous and low.
The puppet of the powerful minister was lying on the bed, listening quietly to the report of the messenger puppet in black.
The messenger in black sang: "Sir, I have convinced the common people to frame that Fang Qing."
"It will be a great shame and humiliation to make a false accusation in court tomorrow. If Fang Qing is upright, it will be difficult to tolerate him."
"Kill the common people and he will fall into the trap."
The puppet of a powerful minister is dressed in official uniforms and brocade robes, with his legs crossed on the bed and his head turning slightly, making him appear vivid.
He sang proudly: "Kill well, kill well. Tomorrow's outcome has been determined. Fang Qing fell into the trap, and it is difficult to tell. The right path and reputation will be gone in one day. I wonder how he can gain a foothold in the court again! Hahaha
.”
The powerful officials laughed.
As the lights dimmed, Jinghu became more energetic.
The stage creaked again, and as the scene changed, Ning Zhuo took a deep breath, his eyes flickering.
The third act ends and the fourth act begins.
The stage turned back to the auditorium, the light was bright, Beijing and Hu were in a hurry, gongs and drums were beating in unison.
Fang Qing's puppet sat in the official position, slapped the hall, and sang: "Today we will try again, in front of the mirror. Who is the real murderer? Let me tell you in detail."
The criminal puppet knelt at the foot of the hall. He raised his head several times, and there was a gentle drum sound.
Finally, he plucked up the courage, shouted excitedly, and then sang: "Fang Qing, you fake upright official, greedy and unbridled, causing harm to the people."
"The so-called real culprit is you. Killing me to silence me is a heinous crime!"
Clang Clang Clang!
Several gongs sounded, tugging at the audience's heartstrings.
Fang Qing's puppet stood up in shock.
Beijing and Hu suddenly turned around, Fang Qing suppressed his anger and sang: "Shameless people, dare to make false accusations! They are so audacious, they can commit crimes at will!"
He took a long breath: "If I exercise this power today, it would be easy to kill you, but I don't want to."
"Legal justice needs to be reviewed, and I should review myself first!"
Immediately, Fang Qing slowly sat down, played two roles, and finally judged himself as a suspect and was temporarily imprisoned.
"Sir!" Faced with such a trial result, the detectives in the hall exclaimed.
"My lord!" the puppets outside the hall exclaimed.
Fang Qing tied his hands, held his head high and led the policemen back.
The light dimmed, leaving the criminal puppet alone, covered in a beam of light.
"My lord..." the criminal puppet chanted, with tears streaming down its face.
Ning Xiaohui is on the verge of bursting into tears!
She ran wildly in the chaotic battlefield, trying her best to use all means to save her own life!
"Help me!"
"Who can come and save me!!"
She kept calling for help and screaming.
Several times, she was in the thin line between life and death. The talented ice-fat hand still performed well at this moment. It was relying on it that Ning Xiaohui saved her life.
The attention of the Jindan monks is no longer on her.
Because massive red flame monsters are about to overwhelm Shi Ji Pavilion!
The three Jindan cultivators, as well as Zhu Zhen, had all received solemn instructions from Zhu Xuanji beforehand - Shi Ji Pavilion was extremely important and could not be missed!
Compared to Shi Ji Pavilion, Ning Xiaohui is no longer so important. In particular, Ning Xiaohui answered Yue Gou's clone and told him that she never had time to read the information in Shi Ji Pavilion.
Boom boom boom!
Golden elixir level spells were bombarded continuously, killing the scarlet flame beasts until their skins were torn apart and they fell to the ground one after another.
But there are too many red flame demonic beasts, and they make up for it in a steady stream, like a continuous tide.
"Damn it, you are so tied up in trying to protect Shi Ji Pavilion! You can't use your full strength at all!"
"The loopholes in the spherical mask must be plugged as soon as possible, otherwise the red flame monster will be endless."
"Damn, the hole in the mask seems to be even bigger!"
The golden elixirs communicate with each other.
Thanks to their efforts to protect Shiji Pavilion, Yang Chanyu also survived.
She cowered aside and used all her strength to attack herself, trying to remove the markings that others had planted on her body.
The dragon turtle fire spirit could not attack Ning Xiaohui directly. It could only command the creations with all its strength to drive the red flame monster as close to Ning Xiaohui as possible.
However, the red flame monsters are unruly and will often choose to fight to the death with the puppet corps, making them difficult to drive away.
At the critical moment of life and death, Ning Xiaohui burst out with 120% of her strength.
She followed the weak spot and plunged in.
Turning a corner, her vision suddenly broadened and she came to the Calabash Stove Forest.
This is not the first time Ning Xiaohui has come here. She has received many weapon refining tasks before, and she basically completed them here.
The familiar scene made Ning Xiaohui feel a sense of security.
A foundation-building red flame monster discovered her and rushed towards her.
Ning Xiaohui ran away quickly.
She subconsciously broke into the furnace forest, and saw that the red flame monster was about to catch up with her. In desperation, she chose a silver furnace, opened the furnace door, and got in!
Bang bang bang...
The red flame monster is outside the furnace and attacks the furnace frantically.
Ning Xiaohui pressed tightly against the furnace door, and used her ice-fat jade hands to condense ice cubes to seal the gap in the door, and at the same time strengthen it strongly.
Ning Xiaohui was worried for a while, until the red flame monster gave up and left, and she relaxed.
"Woooooooo..."
She sat down, feeling joy, fear and other emotions after being lucky enough to survive, impacting her body and mind, making her cover her face and cry.
The criminal puppet is crying too.
On the stage, the fifth act has already begun.
Fang Qing's choices and actions completely influenced the criminal puppet.
Both men were held in cells, separated by a corridor.
The criminal cried, clarified all the truth to Fang Qing, confessed the traitor, and expressed his willingness to plead guilty and obey the law.
Fang Qing let out a long sigh and sang: "The prodigal son will turn back, and a thousand pieces of gold will not change him. If he knows himself clearly, his heart will be pure and undisturbed."
"You have confessed your sin and sincerely repented. This world will definitely tolerate you."
"Don't lose the true nature in your heart anymore. Regroup and embark on the right path. Your life will be completely new!"
Ning Zhuo's performance here touches my heart!
He understood what Zhu Xuanji meant.
Zhu Xuanji persuaded him to surrender and take the right path.
"Can I really take this road?" Ning Zhuo asked himself.
His eyes kept flickering, with a look of hesitation on his face.
The puppet show continues.
The puppets of the people gathered, waved flags and shouted, asking for Fang Qing's life.
The puppets playing gods were also moved and took the initiative to come to the world and come and go to meet the king.
The matter was so big that the whole country knew about it, and the monarch decided to try the case himself.
When the powerful officials knew about it, they immediately sent black envoys to kill the criminal in the cell, leaving him dead without any evidence!
The powerful ministers actively filed charges and tried their best to frame Fang Qing.
Act six begins.
In the Jinluan Palace, Fang Qing and the powerful officials confronted each other.
The powerful ministers were well prepared, but Fang Qing was at an absolute disadvantage.
The monarch was well prepared, clapped his hands, and summoned the True Fire of Innocence.
This is one of the seven flames, which can burn hypocrisy and distinguish truth from falsehood to a certain extent.
The king sang: "If you two can't agree, please go into the fire and consider it."
“It’s clear at a glance who is real and who is fake.”
The powerful minister hesitated and sang: "Self-evidence in the fire is extremely dangerous. Word of mouth may not be accurate..."
Unexpectedly, Fang Qing jumped out and threw himself into the fire.
At this point, the opera reaches its climax!
Beijing and Hu turned sharply, gongs and drums thundered, and the audience subconsciously held their breath.
On the stage, white and slightly clear flames enveloped Fang Qing's puppets and burned fiercely.
Such a special flame makes Fang Qing extremely conspicuous and eye-catching.
At this moment, he was the only protagonist on the stage.
Fang Qing sang loudly in the fire!
"If you want to get rid of this injustice, then use the fierce flames to cut off the weakness."
"My heart is magnanimous and I have no shame in heaven and earth. I am not afraid of life and death, nor of being burned by fire!"
"This is-"
"This heart is open and magnanimous, shining brightly to the sun and the moon,"
"I'd rather pay for my innocence."
"Life and death are just a matter of day and night,"
"The original intention will not change forever!"
On the stage, the fire was blazing.
The blue-white firelight shone on Ning Zhuo's face, and for a moment, he was a little crazy.
Lava Immortal Palace, in the main hall.
The huge body of the dragon turtle fire spirit was firmly pressed against the door and the roof, and the firelight it emitted illuminated every corner of the main hall.
It was roaring, it was shouting, it shouted to Ning Zhuo: "Young Master! Young Master!!"
On the battlefield surrounding Shi Ji Pavilion.
The firelight on the red flame monster reflected on the bodies of the golden elixir monks.
The melee continues.
The Jindans formed a tight defensive front and the battle reached a stalemate.
Zhu Xuanji stood in front of the window, looking down at Ning Zhuo on the stage.
"Ning Zhuo, don't disappoint me!" The golden light in his eyes represented his expectation.
Ning Zhuo's eyes flickered, and he was inevitably thinking - he might also be able to wash away his sins in this pure fire!
He doesn't need to hide and pretend, he doesn't need to bear such heavy pressure. He can hold his head high and walk in the light. He will walk easily.
He sat on the high platform and looked at the audience clearly.
"Is this the perspective of Mr. Li Leifeng back then? No wonder he was able to discover me when I was young."
"Now I am sitting in this position."
"Perhaps, I can sit down forever, sitting in this glorious place..."
"Um?"
Ning Zhuo's expression moved slightly, and in a daze, he saw his former self.
It seems that more than ten years have passed, and Ning Zhuo now sees Ning Zhuo in the past.
That young body was hiding in a dark corner, staring at the guests' pastries and drooling. Whenever someone glanced over, he would subconsciously shrug his shoulders and shrink his head. It was like, like...
A thief.
Ning Zhuo narrowed his eyes and looked carefully.
Suddenly, the face of the young boy was not his, but that of Sun Lingtong!
A scene of memory came to mind.
Ning Zhuo sneaked into the cell secretly and rescued Sun Lingtong.
"Boss, you missed it again this time." Ning Zhuo said, dumbfounded.
Sun Lingtong laughed and said: "Oh, I was caught. Thank you, brother!"
Ning Zhuo shook his head: "If you ask me, why do we always steal? It's not like we don't have money now."
Sun Lingtong used the palm of her hand as a pillow and strutted across the cell door. As she walked out, she said, "I am a thief. If I don't steal anything, what will I do?"
Ning Zhuo continued to shake his head, not understanding: "Even if you steal, there is no need to profess your own cultivation, right?"
Sun Lingtong said: "Don't you think this is exciting?"
"I have already reached the foundation building stage. With my true strength, unless they are those at the golden elixir level, it will not be difficult to steal from others."
"So, you have to declare your own cultivation level."
"This kind of peaceful life is really hard to endure. There is always a little challenge. Let me not be so bored!"
At this point, Sun Lingtong stopped, looked at Ning Zhuo, and said seriously: "You can understand, right? You are also a person like me."
Ning Zhuo raised his eyebrows and shouted: "How is it possible?! This kind of deliberately risky action is simply too stupid."
"Ah, you actually called me stupid, boss?!"
Ning Zhuo waved his hand quickly: "If you accidentally tell the truth, ah, no, boss, boss, please listen to my explanation!"
Sun Lingtong jumped up and screamed: "Eat my chestnuts, you brat!"
Another scene in my memory emerged.
Under the moonlight, two young men washed their hands by the river in the fairy city.
That was the first time Ning Zhuo took a human life.
The blood flowed down the river quickly and was quickly diluted. By the time it crossed the stone bridge forty steps away, there was almost nothing visible.
Sun Lingtong said to him: "Every time I go out to steal, I will tell myself before I act that I will probably not be able to come back this time, and I will probably lose my life."
"If this is the outcome of my life's gamble, I accept it."
"I am always ready to accept my own death, even in the next second."
"This is my realization!"
"Where is your consciousness?"
The leaves on both sides of the bank undulated slightly in the night wind.
The silvery white moonlight shines on the river, creating sparkling waves, like countless fine diamonds dancing on the water.
The ripples of the river rippled in Ning Zhuo's eyes.
When he came back to his senses, he was still sitting high on the stage, with countless monks and celebrities under the stage, and the Fang Qing puppet on the stage was still bathed in pure flames.
Silent tears flowed down Ning Zhuo's cheeks.
"Oh?" Zhu Xuanji noticed this scene keenly and suddenly showed a look of relief.
"Ning Zhuo! Ning Zhuo!!" The Dragon Fire Spirit roared in Ning Zhuo's ears.
Very strange.
Just now he completely blocked the sound.
But in fact, he even listened to the roar of the dragon turtle fire spirit.
The dragon turtle fire spirit told Ning Zhuo everything that was happening in the lava fairy palace.
"Boss Sun." Ning Zhuo contacted Sun Lingtong through the thread of life.
Sun Lingtong was pleasantly surprised: "Brother, you finally made some noise!"
"The current situation on the battlefield is like this..."
Ning Zhuo interrupted him: "I know."
Sun Lingtong: "Do you want to do something?"
Ning Zhuo: "Boss, thank you."
Sun Lingtong: "What?"
Ning Zhuo smiled silently: "I mean, do it."
Sun Lingtong's eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay!"
In the stove, Ning Xiaohui gradually stabilized her mood.
"I didn't die, I survived!"
"Hehehe, hahaha!"
"The dragon dragon fire spirit has its limits after all. It can only borrow external help and cannot kill me directly."
"After getting through this time, I took the initiative to go to the Jindan Ancestor for help. I want to report the dragon fire spirit, and I want to report Ning Zhuo!"
"I want...what is this?!"
Peng.
There was a soft sound, and the flame suddenly started burning in the furnace.
Ning Xiaohui's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a pinhead!
She quickly avoided it and rushed towards the stove door.
She pushed with all her strength.
The furnace door didn't move at all.
There was the faint sound of chanting Buddhist scriptures.
"Who, who is outside?!"
The temperature rose rapidly, and the furnace was filled with red.
"Let me go, let me go, please, spare my life."
"I'll give you whatever you want!"
"I can't die, I've obviously discovered the truth."
"I don't want to die, I really don't want to die!!"
Ning Xiaohui screamed for mercy and struggled desperately.
She used all her strength to use her talented ice-fat jade hands to create huge ice cubes in the furnace, just to survive.
Over at Shi Ji Pavilion, we have reached a critical moment.
The mechanical creations drove them away with all their strength, and a large number of red flame monsters formed a frenzy, drowning the golden elixir monks' magic circle.
The magic circle covers Shi Ji Pavilion!
"Young Master Ning Zhuo, this is the moment!" Dragon Fire Spirit roared.
Ning Zhuo had a cold eye and exercised his duties as the tower commander.
The Five Elements Cannon Tower rose again, and after the cannon gained momentum, it shot out with a bang, hitting the hill where the monsters were piled up.
boom!
Countless monsters died tragically and were turned into ashes in the explosion of the cannonballs condensed by the five elements of mana.
The magic circle is broken.
"We can't keep it any longer!"
“Can’t hold on any longer!!”
"Quickly retreat."
The Jindan monks had no choice but to retreat in order to protect themselves.
Boom boom boom!
Continuous artillery fire covered the magic circle and Shi Ji Pavilion.
Almost all the red flame monsters were killed and injured, and the former site of Shi Ji Pavilion has become a ruin.
What historical records are there?
Not a single scum is left!
"I succeeded!!" Dragon Fire Spirit raised its head and roared, extremely excited.
The next moment, a guillotine condensed with flames fell from the sky, followed its neck, and chopped off its dragon head directly!
Calabash Stove Forest.
Under the terrifying high temperature, the ice cubes made by Bingzhiyu's hands only lasted a dozen breaths.
Ning Xiaohui's body turned into ashes in the flames, leaving behind a little bit of spirituality, flying like fireflies.
There is no longer any mainline genius of the Ning family, no more ice-fat and jade hands.
The whole stove returned to calm.
The flame is like a silent dancer, slowly stretching its gentle figure.
The red and orange firelight fills the furnace, giving off a warm and peaceful color.
On the stage, Ning Zhuo's expression also became calm.
The pure flames shone in his eyes, burning away his hesitation, burning away his luck, burning away his timidity, burning away his humility.
The play "Fang Purges the Wrongs" has come to an end.
Fang Qing stepped out of the flames and came to the powerful officials with the pure fire.
The powerful ministers retreated repeatedly, but were still covered by the flames and burned to ashes in an instant.
"I also long to be illuminated by the fire."
"If one day, I accidentally cause fire and burn myself, I will eventually burn myself..."
"Then, I hope this fire is lit by my own hands!"
Chapter completed!
