When Baili Fengjian and Lu Shenyu arrived at the back of Jiahuang Mountain, they saw two Nanqiong disciples walking toward them with slumped expressions.
Lu Shenyu saw clearly that they were her young disciples of Jing Yufeng, and thought that she had not sent them down the mountain. She raised her eyebrows and asked in a serious voice, "Why do you want to go down the mountain privately?"
Unexpectedly, the expressions of the two people suddenly changed, and they knelt down with a plop: "Master, please spare your life!"
The frown deepened: "What on earth is going on?"
"Disciple took inventory of the warehouse today and found that the Nine Heavens Holy Fire's fire was missing. This is a serious matter, so I had to go down the mountain to look for it, but I couldn't find anything."
Lu Shenyu and Baili Fengjian looked at each other, slightly worried. A few days ago, she lit eight bundles of fire from the warehouse to repair the barrier. Later, she only used five bundles, and the rest were taken back to the mountain. Unexpectedly,
Something went wrong. The Nine Heavens Holy Fire is extremely powerful and can be regarded as the mountain-holding fairy treasure of the Nanqiong Sect. If it falls into the hands of unscrupulous people, I'm afraid...
"How many bunches are missing?"
"There is a bunch missing. It was mixed with ordinary fire. I didn't pay attention to it when it was stored in the warehouse. I only discovered it today when I took a closer look."
"Who sent the fire back?"
"When I asked the person in charge of the warehouse, they all said they didn't know. The fire was just there by itself. They all thought it was the other person who put the fire in the warehouse, so they didn't ask any more questions at the time."
"Confused!" Lu Shenyu shouted hastily. No matter how anxious he was, there was nothing he could do. He looked sideways at Baili Fengjian.
"Go back first, the matter of the Nine Heavens Holy Fire is important." Baili Fengjian pursed his lips, his face was calm, but there was a strange feeling of uneasiness passing through his heart. He couldn't tell what it was. He was inexplicably extremely worried about Jing Che, and he was anxious.
I desperately wanted to see her. But I suddenly remembered that she was still in the phantom fire burning field. Even if I wanted to see her, it was not that easy.
Returning to the Nanqiong Sect along the original route. Lu Shenyu hurried to Jingyu Peak, and Baili Fengjian couldn't interfere with the affairs of other peaks, so he had to go back to Yunqin Peak first.
Passing through the bamboo forest on the main peak, the whistling sound caused by the long wind made people upset. Baili Fengjian stopped under the rustling bamboo leaves for a long time without moving, not knowing whether to go in or leave.
My eyes calmly spread to the end of the bamboo forest, where is the entrance to the phantom fire burning field.
Several conversations fell into his ears, and Baili Fengjian stood there openly, listening absentmindedly.
"Are you crazy? The boss has ordered not to intercede for her, but you still want to hit the muzzle of the gun!" came the hysterical voice of a woman.
"Gong Lin, what does this have to do with you?" He scolded impatiently.
"Haha, you are really - haha, it has been two years, almost three years, and you will never see that I am worried about you?"
"I don't like vicious women."
"Am I vicious? If you could pay more attention to me, would I be forced into this state by you? Okay, okay, you go and beg for mercy. Anyway, the confinement set up by the Phantom Fire Burning Field is less than seventy-two hours, so I can only go in.
If you can't come out, go and die with her!"
The footsteps rustled and crushed the fallen leaves as they stepped out slowly. When Ye Xiu saw Baili Fengjian at the entrance of the bamboo forest, he paused slightly in surprise. When he reacted, he only said hello distantly: "Sword Master."
Then he left without looking away. Then the embarrassed Gong Lin walked out from the depths of the bamboo forest and bowed evasively. His expression was so dark that Baili Fengjian looked indifferent, thinking that he had not heard their argument just now.
, and walked away quickly as if running away.
You can't worry about other people's affairs, not to mention that everyone knows Gong Lin's thoughts, and it is expected that they will explode.
But she - well, do you want to go see her?
Baili Fengjian stared straight at the deep entrance of the cave, the halo of confinement faintly flowing. There was a short distance, but he still couldn't take a step forward.
Although the phantom fire would only bring burning pain as a punishment, but thinking that she had to suffer in the fire for seventy-two hours, and that this punishment was inflicted by him himself, he would feel unbelievable.
He has almost never punished her, no matter how lawless she is. He hopes to give her the most indulgent life, which is both a past debt and a master's favor.
At this moment, he was equally worried. He hoped that she could think clearly inside and stop the affair and restrain her temper of never turning back. He also hoped that she wouldn't hate him so much.
He has always been a contradictory person. Maybe he cares too much and worries too much.
But this time, he took the step unexpectedly.
The disciples who were guarding the side of the Phantom Fire Burning Field saw that Baili Fengjian was coming. They bowed and bowed silently, and continued to guard expressionlessly. They did not stop Baili Fengjian from continuing to walk in. He was getting closer.
, he stopped, touched the wine gourd at his waist, and suddenly pulled his lips and smiled helplessly.
I couldn't figure it out anymore. I just didn't think about anything and walked to the entrance of the cave with long legs.
In the imagination, the field of vision should be pitch black, because only the person being tortured can feel the phantom fire, and nothing can be seen from the outside.
However, when Baili Fengjian cast his gaze in, his expression was first unbelievable, and then horrified.
His tone was sudden and furious: "How can there be real fire inside?"
The four gatekeeper disciples gathered around and looked inside the burning field. The door was closed and they couldn't see the real flames inside unless they looked carefully. They were at a loss for a moment and knelt down in a panic and said: "This...
The disciples don’t know.”
But before they could raise their heads to look, they felt as if a flash of light passed by, and then they were surprised to find that the Sword Master had disappeared.
They looked at each other in confusion, and after coming back to their senses, they hurriedly looked into the burning field.
"The Juggernaut went in?"
"Doesn't that mean I can't get out?"
"What are you still doing? Go and ask the leader!"
*
"Ah Che!" A vast sea of fire was boundless, and Baili Fengjian had no idea where Jing Che was.
Long Yuan's white sword split the flames, and the masculine power came back.
It turned out to be the Nine Heavens Holy Fire!
Baili Fengjian was angry and frightened, and even more anxiously wanted to find Jing Che. Who mixed the Nine Heavens Holy Fire into the phantom fire? Who wanted to harm his disciple!
No, what hour is this? Can she survive the Nine Heavens Holy Fire? Where is the Divine Seal? He clearly remembers putting it on her wrist, so why doesn't it work?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, clamoring in his consciousness. The excitement seemed to tear his throat, and the sadness seemed to cripple the sky. Baili Fengjian truly felt what is extremely important in life.
Things are being lost, but even though he has the ability to cover the sky and the world with one hand, at this moment he can only be as helpless as a headless fly running around. He wants to find the missing girl before time,
However, in the vast sea of fire, he is just a mortal after all, and he is helpless in the face of fate.
The sword light struck everywhere, and the fire dragon charged rampantly.
This situation made Baili Fengjian vaguely think of Miao territory a few months ago, with lava rolling under their feet, and they had been inseparably hugging each other on the solitary rock.
She had stood beside him so real and vivid, and her smiles before his eyes had almost become a habit, sometimes annoying and sometimes sticky.
Now it was him who pushed her away intentionally, and she was forced to go far away. He wanted to look back, but there was such a huge sea between him and her. This anxiety was not only in her body and mind.
"Ache! Ache!"
At this moment, an inaudible shattering sound reached the bottom of his ears. Baili Fengjian turned his head impatiently and looked around, seeing a wisp of white smoke rising faintly in the sea of fire.
It's the soul!
Baili Fengjian rushed forward quickly, and at that moment, there was a "pop" sound, and the white smoke was dispersed in the flames. He reached out eagerly to save something, but retracted his hand. He saw that only the solidification in his palm was
A crystal fragment.
Looking down, there was a black stone platform at the foot of the girl, with her black hair covering most of her face. Her soul overflowed and formed a transparent ball of light to protect the master's body. However, she was already at the end of her strength, and there were still souls coming.
Dissipates in flame burns.
He immediately lowered himself, Long Yuan's white sword split the iron chain, and then opened a barrier to protect the stone platform, and the unconscious Jing Che floated up from the ground.
Her pale face was almost transparent, her beautiful eyes were tightly closed, and the only colorful thing was the cinnabar teardrop in the corner of her eye, which was so bright that it looked like blood from crying. There was also a deep tooth mark on her pale lips, indicating that she had been
The pain is endured.
Baili Fengjian probed her breathing, which was so weak that he could hardly feel it. He held her hand and tried to send the true energy in, but her body was already in a state of apnea and could not receive any true energy.
He didn't have time to worry too much, he slightly held up Jing Che's face, leaned over her lips and slowly blew a stream of Qi into her lips.
The lips were soft and weak, mixed with a faint blood energy and the girl's unique gentle breath. Baili Fengjian suppressed the strangeness in his heart and continued to slowly convey the true energy.
Jing Che's body gradually warmed up, and the soul above his head gradually returned to its place. Baili Fengjian straightened his back and left her lips, and counted carefully, but three of the seven souls were scattered.
He clasped his hands together and held her tighter in his arms.
"Ah Che." He almost sighed and called softly.
It was the sigh of finding something lost, and it was also the weight of regret. Although he came a step late, he did not lose her completely in the end. He thought that his caring so much was just the natural relationship between master and disciple, which was natural and without any deviation. But he did not go into it deeply.
What's more, her feelings have gone wrong, and his response is destined to be wrong. And Baili Fengjian is so conceited that he will never realize this until he truly loses her.
The Nine Heavens Holy Fire was coming fiercely and declining quickly. With the urging of Long Yuan's white sword, it was gradually extinguished. However, the phantom fire was still burning brightly in the burning field.
Baili Fengjian protected Jingche in front of him, resisting the disaster of phantom fire for her.
It was his punishment for her, and in the end it became a punishment they shared together.
There were just two people sitting there, and if it wasn't for the ferocious sea of fire, it would have seemed like they were going to live forever.
But the sleeping person couldn't see her, and there was only hatred in her heart. The awake person didn't speak, and her heart was filled with regret.
