Good and evil must balance

Shen Qiu dragged a brother with a severed arm off the boat, his footsteps were staggering, it looked like he was seriously injured.

Shen Xuan stepped forward to support Shen Qiu, when Shen Qiu saw her, she asked, "How is your health recently?"

Shen Xuan nodded obediently, "Don't worry, brother, Xiao Xuan is fine."

Pushing away Shen Xuan to help his hand, he hung on to another brother who came to help him, and looked at Yingze and the others who came to the beach to join in the fun, "Are they playing with you well?"

Shen Xuan nodded fiercely, and took Yingze's hand, "Yeah, especially Yingze, he talked a lot with me these days, and introduced me to many interesting things outside."

"That's good." Shen Qiu patted her head in relief.Then he ordered people to carry the injured brothers off the boat, clutching the iron box in his arms, and went straight to the back mountain of the island.

In the wooden house in the back mountain, Pharmacist Huan was still dazed and crazy, muttering and messing with the medicine in his hand, when he saw Shen Qiu and his party pushing the door open, he just glanced blankly and ignored them.

Shen Qiu glanced at Yingze.

Yingze raised his eyebrows, and said, "Don't look at me anymore, I found a better way to stimulate him." As he spoke, Yingze picked up the painting he had laid flat on the table and walked out slowly, "Oh , such a beautiful woman, I wish I could take it home and hang it on the bed day and night—”

"...Yingze, stop for me!"

Yingze said: "Look, won't you wake up now?"

Everyone turned black, is this old man really crazy or fake?

Shen Qiu carefully took out the iron box from his arms and put it in front of Pharmacist Huan, "Sir, please start dispensing the medicine."

Pharmacist Huan was taken aback, and said, "Ice Toad?"

Shen Qiu nodded, and said in a deep voice: "It's good luck, the head of the Cangxi sect brought half of the disciples out to do errands, so my brothers and I got a chance." It's just this chance that ruined the lives of half of the brothers.

Yao Shihuan looked at Shen Qiu, opened his mouth to say something, but finally swallowed it back, rolled his eyes, and said in a calm tone: "Give me half a month, and I will definitely be able to cure your sister."

With this promise, most of the gloom in Shen Qiu's heart for the past few days has disappeared, he laughed out loud, and couldn't help hissing because of his injuries, he clutched his chest and vomited blood.

The pharmacist cast a glance at him, pushed them out, and said in a muffled voice: "Go, go, I want to vomit blood and go to another place to vomit." He retreated to the door, and said: "Also, Yingze searched for all the healing medicines here. Now, if you have any injuries on your body, go to Yingze."

"..."

Yingze smiled awkwardly, and cooperatively took out a bottle of wound medicine from his bosom.

Shen Qiu rested peacefully on the island for a few days before Yingze mentioned to him about helping Chu Zheng find herbs.

When he asked Pharmacist Huan, he knew that one of the key herbs was on a deserted island thousands of miles away from here. He didn't want to agree, but Shen Xuan begged for mercy, so he reluctantly agreed to send them to the island by boat after their injuries recovered. I don't care about the matter of going to the island to collect medicine.

Yingze readily agrees.

Within a few days, some of the brothers brought back could not sustain serious internal injuries, but a few went back a few days later.

Shen Qiu wrapped up their bodies with a sullen face, and waited until the day when the boat sent Yingze and his party to the deserted island, and carried them back to the pirate ship one by one with his own hands.

Originally, only Yingze, Chuxiong and Yi Feiyang were scheduled to go to the desert island together.But Chu Xiao still didn't trust the people on the island, and felt that it would be better for him and Chu Zheng to stay on the island with them, so he insisted on taking Chu Zheng to travel with them.

"Leave my cousin to take care of me. This time I will take care of him with all my heart so that he will not make any mistakes again." Seeing his insistence and Chu Zheng's expression of imperativeness, Ying Ze reluctantly nodded in agreement.

The boat sailed out of the island and was slowly pushed forward by the sea wind. The waves hit the iron plate of the bow and scattered white foam, lap after lap.

Yingze leaned against the bow of the boat, the sea breeze blowing against his face made him squint his eyes comfortably.

"What are they doing?" Chu Xiao helped Chu Zheng to walk.

Yingze turned around and saw at the stern of the boat, Shen Qiu was carrying those corpses and throwing them into the sea one by one.

It was rare for Chu Xiao not to step forward to stop him in surprise. Chu Zheng looked towards the sea and sighed, "This is probably their custom."

Chu Xiao said: "Being a pirate in life, do you still want to be with the sea after death..."

Yingze turned around and leaned against the railing, and said, "The sea is so beautiful, you can drift with the waves and feel free."

Chu Zheng glanced at him thoughtfully, staring at the rippling sea level, dazed.

Shen Qiu, the overlord of the sea, was at the helm, and the ship sailed quickly on the sea for several days, and finally arrived at the deserted island without wind or waves.

It was only when the boat was on the side of the island that Yingze finally understood why Shen Qiu didn't want to accompany them to the island.

Rather than saying that it is an island, it is better to say that it is a volcano, a volcano that is about to erupt.Black smoke billowed from the top of the mountain, and Guan could feel the scorching heat there with his naked eyes.

Shen Qiu drove the boat some distance away from the island, and yelled at them: "Hey, baby, I think the situation on the top of the mountain is only two days away from the eruption of the volcano, hurry up and go to the top of the mountain to gather medicine. Come back, as long as the volcano erupts, I won’t care about your life or death, just sail away!”

The medicine they want to pick is black fire grass, this kind of herb can only grow on the soil that has been scorched by magma after the eruption of the volcano, and the closer it is to the fire source, the stronger the medicinal properties of the black fire herb grows, and In Jianghu, there are very few such medicinal materials circulating in the market.

For one thing, most of the volcanoes are located somewhere on the island, and it is impossible to find them easily without a guide in the vast sea, not to mention the rampant pirates at sea, which kill most people's idea of ​​going to sea to find medicine in the cradle.

Secondly, only the black fire grass close to the fire source can be called a good medicinal product, and the time of the volcanic eruption is uncertain, if no one guides it, if it is not careful, it will be wiped out by the magma.

Over time, the Xuanhuo Grass has become a holy product in medicine, priceless and marketless.

"This trip to sea is really a blessing in disguise." Chu Xiong looked at the smoking mountain top and sighed.

But Yingze said, "It's not certain whether it's a blessing or a curse."

As he said that, he directly used his true energy and rushed towards the top of the mountain with lightness kung fu.

Yi Feiyang was the second to follow, looking at the bloodshot eyes at the corner of his mouth, he rarely frowned, "Why did Brother Ying use his true energy even though he knew he was poisoned by Gu?"

"It's so fast." Yingze swallowed a mouthful of blood, and said casually, "And the blood, I'm used to it when I spit it out."

Yi Feiyang nodded expressionlessly, Chuxiong caught up with them from behind, Yingze increased his speed again, and saw three figures quickly shuttle through the scorched forest.Half a quarter of an hour later, the three reached the top of the mountain.

The temperature on the top of the mountain was already very high, and the scalding hot air was sucked into the throat, hot enough to suffocate people.

"The temperature doesn't seem quite right." Chu Xiong used his internal strength to resist the heat, his eyes fixed on the big pit on the top of the mountain that was emitting black smoke.

Yingze also frowned, "Hurry up first."

The three of them searched back and forth on the top of the mountain, but after nearly half a day, they still found nothing, not to mention black fire grass, there is not even a single common weed here!

Yingze was overwhelmed, and kicked hard, a small stone hit the big pit on the top of the mountain, making a "squeaky" sound, Yingze was taken aback, looked at the big pit, and found that the black smoke there had become thicker and thicker. A few flames flashed faintly in the black mist.

……not good!Yingze turned around and said urgently, "Run!"

As soon as the words fell, an orange-red rock fire erupted instantly in the black mist, and the temperature on the top of the mountain rose sharply, and the clothes of the three people were already a little dusty.

Yi Feiyang was the first to react and got up and ran back, followed by Chu Xiong. The two quickly shuttled through the mountains and forests, and when they ran halfway up the mountain, they suddenly found that Yingze was gone!

Looking back, the billowing magma hit them directly, and the suffocating burning sensation hit their faces.

Do you want to go back?

Before thinking too much, Yi Feiyang turned around and continued running down the mountain regardless. Chu Xiong was startled and hurried to follow.

"Aren't you on good terms with him? Why don't you save him?" Chu Xiong's heart was pounding, and he could only use a harsh tone to cover up his guilt.

Yi Feiyang said expressionlessly: "Of course someone will save him."

How to save?The top of the mountain has long been covered by magma, and it is too late for them to go back to save them, how can others save them?

Chu Xiong felt that Yingze must die this time, and he couldn't tell what it was like, so he took a breath and accelerated the speed of his feet.

When the lava hit him, Yingze was very calm.In his hand, he tightly grasped the mysterious fire grass that was suddenly spotted at the place where the flame erupted.

"Ah Zheng..." Yingze used his internal strength to run down quickly, and there were bursts of severe pain in his dantian, which made his forehead sweat continuously. He pursed his mouth, trying to keep himself from vomiting a little blood.

I don't know what kind of Gu poison Chu Xiulin fed him. Although he used his true energy a little along the way, he never used it as frequently as today. sharp.Yingze flew over the magma for a long while using light kung fu, only to feel that the heat in the dantian was not much lower than the lava below.

"A Zheng..." he whispered in his heart.

Ah Zheng's medicine must be delivered.

This was his only persistence when resisting the severe pain in his dantian that was about to burst.

"A Zheng..."

There was another hot and long dull pain in the dantian, Yingze finally spit out a mouthful of black blood, suffocated, and fell lightly into the lava below.

Trying his best...Yingze closed his eyes unwillingly, the hot air swirled around his ears, making his brain buzzing.

It is said that before a person dies, the memories of his life will flash in his mind like a fleeting moment.Yingze didn't believe it. After all, he was hunted down by Chu Zheng to the west border two years ago. When he thought he was going to die, he never thought of the so-called good memories of the past.

At this time too.There are no half-life memories in my mind, and there are only two familiar little boys in my memory, practicing sword shirtless in front of the thatched cottage in the wind and snow.

"The action is not fast enough, and the sword is not strong enough. Ah Zheng, if you go on like this, how will you protect your brother and me when you grow up?" The boy in black lifted the boy in white's sword and hit the boy in white with the blade on the head.

The boy in white picked up the sword from the snow, and looked at the boy in black seriously with a puzzled expression, "Brother is obviously better than me, why do you want me to protect you?"

……

Senior Brother...Senior Brother...

When can I hear him call senior brother again.

"Yingze!"

That's right, I don't know when, he will only call his name, not senior brother.

Yingze narrowed his eyes slightly, and what caught his eyes was Chu Zheng's frightened face.

"... Ah Zheng?"

The wrist was grabbed, and Chu Zheng pulled him towards him forcefully, wrapping him in his arms.

"Didn't I tell you to wait on the boat?" Yingze was in a daze, staring at his side face closely, afraid that in the blink of an eye, everything would be nothing on Huangquan Road.

Chu Zheng said: "Don't talk, we'll be there soon."

The fiery pain in the dantian was still attacking his brain intermittently.

He wrapped his arms around Chu Zheng's neck drowsily, and said, "Chu Zheng, it's a sea of ​​flames again."

"..."

Chu Zheng opened his mouth, as if to say something.
