burning lamp

Probably because he drank alcohol last night and didn't sleep well enough, Xie Fengshu actually had a nightmare.

In the dream, Xumi was covered with heavy snow, and he stood alone in the snow, his red clothes were extremely dazzling.The ground was all white, he didn't know where to go, he stood a little dazed in the heavy snow, until Jiang Chen's Dharma Hall suddenly appeared not far away.

He breathed a sigh of relief, as if he saw the way home, he stepped on the snow quickly and walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow.It was windy and snowy, but he didn't feel cold, and he only had eyes on the brightly lit Dharma hall.

When he got to the door, Xie Fengshu heaved a sigh of relief, and pushed the door open. Inside, there were still three thousand Buddha lamps illuminating the bright hall. He stepped in and looked around, but he didn't see the familiar monk's robe, so he called out in a low voice: "Crimson dust?"

In the next moment, the flames of the three thousand Buddha lamps flickered, and they were all extinguished.Thousands of Buddha's chant came from all directions in the darkness, and someone sternly asked: "Evil beast, the pure land of Buddhism, how dare you trespass?!"

Xie Fengshu was taken aback, and hurriedly took a few steps back, almost knocking over the lampstand, which made a lot of tinkling and bangling noises.The dharma hall in front of me disappeared in an instant, leaving only the vast snow.

In the howling wind and snow, before Xie Fengshu had time to react, a sharp pain suddenly came from the back of his neck.

"what--"

The pain was extremely severe, as if someone had peeled off his skin and pulled out a bone, exposing the flesh and blood to the world.Xie Fengshu was so painful that he knelt down in the snow and gasped for breath. He gritted his teeth and subconsciously reached out to explore, as if he had touched some hard sheet.

Xie Fengshu held it in his hand and took it down. In the wind and snow, he could clearly see what he was holding.

It was a piece of silver-white dragon scale, emitting a faint, faint blue light in his hand.

Xie Fengshu woke up suddenly.

It was already noon, Xie Xi didn't know where to go, he was the only one left in the house.Xie Fengshu lay on the bed staring at the roof, covered in sweat.

He didn't know why he had such a dream, but the pain in the dream was too clear, he lay on the bed for a long time, until his breathing calmed down, he lifted the quilt and got up.

He tidied himself up and pushed the door out, almost bumping into Lu Qiwu who was standing at the door.

Xie Fengshu hurriedly stopped his feet: "Master, what are you doing so early in the morning?"

Lu Qiwu bluntly slammed his apprentice on the head: "What time is it? It's still early in the morning! Your senior brothers and sisters have already woken up!"

Xie Fengshu knew he was wrong, so he didn't dare to speak out, Lu Qiwu snorted and asked again: "Where did you go last night?"

"...I found out so quickly, you are too clever." Xie Fengshu begged for mercy from Lu Qiwu with a smile on his face, "I was wrong, next time I go down the mountain, I will bring you another jar of good wine to compensate you, okay?"

Lu Qiwu was a little exhausted, stroked his beard and said, "Who asked you this, I asked you if you have seen any strangers recently, is there anything wrong?"

Xie Fengshu thought of the man named Feng Ji last night, and said truthfully: "I met a man who lost his way in the mountains, and pointed him in the direction, he should have gone down the mountain."

Lu Qiwu frowned tightly, with ravines running across his forehead, he didn't know what he was thinking, but in the end he just let out a long sigh.

"I always feel that there is something different about Mount Sumeru recently, but I can't notice anything. You don't want to go down the mountain anymore, and it's best not to even come out of the Mirror Tower. Especially you, your senior brother and sister have already cultivated the golden core, you? , in case a big monster comes, it's not enough to fit between the teeth."

Xie Fengshu responded a little aggrieved, thought for a while and said, "Master, what do you think I am?"

Seeing Lu Qiwu looking at him, Xie Fengshu touched his nose: "Senior Sister's original form is a white fox, and Xiaoxi is a black snake. As for me, I don't seem to know what my original form is."

Lu Qiwu looked at his little apprentice silently for a while, and then spoke with a vicissitudes of tone: "I don't know much about it as a teacher. I picked you up by the lake of Mingjingtai back then, and you were still a smooth white egg. You brought it back and nourished it with the aura of heaven and earth, but you never grew up, if you hadn't raised your spirit, I thought you were dead."

Xie Fengshu: "..."

"Until a certain year, I got drunk for two days and didn't see you. When I opened my eyes again, you had turned into a human being and were crawling on the ground. I couldn't figure it out."

In monster cultivation, one should first have the original form, then train the spirit, and finally transform into a human. Xie Fengshu directly omitted a step.

Lu Qiwu glanced at Xie Fengshu, and said in a deep voice: "I have been in Mount Sumeru for many years, and I have never seen such an egg. I thought it should be a spirit beast, and it might be able to raise a phoenix unicorn. But since you have given me all these years Judging from what happened, I was wrong, so I guess I'm a bastard."

Xie Fengshu, who was listening seriously, said, "..."

What kind of master is this!

After beating his little apprentice, Lu Qiwu drifted away contentedly, and before leaving, he said: "Remember to fill up the water tank today, as punishment for stealing wine."

Xie Fengshu was speechless, and extremely aggrieved, he picked up the bucket to fetch water.

Today's weather is not good, the sky is gray, pressing down on the entire Mount Sumeru, it is like a storm is about to come.Xie Fengshu carried the bucket back and forth from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, adding water to the water tank.

On the last trip, he bent over to fetch water by the lake, and suddenly heard someone behind him say: "Ying Long."

Xie Fengshu turned his head subconsciously, and saw the man named Feng Ji from last night, and behind him was a man in black, looking over with an unfriendly expression.

Xie Fengshu frowned and said, "You called me?

"You must have admitted the wrong person."

Feng Ji was startled for a moment, then smiled suddenly: "Yes, you don't have that name anymore. What's your name now?"

Xie Fengshu originally wanted to say "it's none of your business", but felt that it was not polite.He hesitated for a moment and didn't speak, just pretending that he couldn't hear.Feng Ji continued patiently, "How old are you? Almost three hundred years old?"

Seeing that Xie Fengshu still didn't speak, Feng Ji smiled, and asked himself: "Three hundred years old, it's time to cultivate the golden core, and maybe you can ascend to the Tao in the future, right?"

After finishing speaking, Feng Ji paused suddenly, and his eyes moved to Xie Fengshu's waist.

It was late last night, he didn't pay attention to it, and only now did he see the knife on Xie Fengshu's waist.

His eyes turned cold, and he said with a low smile, "I see."

Xie Fengshu didn't notice his eyes, he just couldn't bear it anymore, threw the bucket in his hand, frowned and said, "Why do you talk so much?"

When Feng Ji said this, his expression turned cold, and he sighed: "It is said that everything will change after reincarnation, why are you still so bad-tempered in this life?"

Xie Fengshu was taken aback when he heard the words, and raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him: "You know me?"

Feng Ji said: "Didn't dare to forget each other for many years."

Seeing Xie Fengshu's skeptical look, he said again: "I still know where your saber came from. A monk gave it to you, right?"

Xie Fengshu couldn't help but said: "How do you know?"

"Because this knife was originally placed with me." Feng Ji said warmly, "He came to my place to pick up the knife and gave it to you."

More than 60 years have passed since Jiang Chen took the knife, but Feng Ji still has a fresh memory of that day.

The Zhenmo Pagoda is under the ten thousand hectares of lake water, and is bound by several layers of iron chains, so it can't see the sun, but one day a monk with a Buddha's bone and golden body came to Jiuzhong to take the knife.

There are tens of thousands of monsters above the ninth level, and the endless purgatory below the ninth level, but he looks indifferent and goes straight down, just for this Feng Yuan.

Feng Ji looked at the long knife on Xie Fengshu's waist, as if he had discovered something interesting, and murmured: "I really didn't expect..."

I thought it was Yinglong who caused some troubles, and the gods and Buddhas in the heavens would not tolerate him, but I didn't expect it to be like this.

Xie Fengshu was silent for a moment, and finally raised his eyes and said: "Thank you, I will ask Jiang Chen again when he comes back."

He originally wanted that the person in front of him really knew him, maybe he could know his true form.But after thinking about it, I felt that the origin of the person in front of me was unknown, so I couldn't believe it all.

After all, he has grown up. Although he still has a youthful heart, he is more cautious and considerate in doing things.

Feng Ji saw that the guard in Xie Fengshu's eyes still hadn't faded, knowing that there was nothing to say, the corners of his lips curled up, revealing a little smile, but his tone was as cold as frost and snow.

"Of course I know you. I came to Sumeru this time just to find you. They all persuaded me that I have other hegemony to gain, but I think that the iron chain and the pain of not being able to stand up for tens of thousands of years are also extremely important. ,Yes or no?"

The person in front of him still had a smile on his mouth, but Xie Fengshu sensed a hint of danger, he reached out to touch Feng Yuan, Feng Ji saw it, and the sneer in his eyes deepened: "But I am different from those gods and Buddhas. Talking about compassion, but in my heart I wish to make people lose their souls, but I am willing to really let you go."

He raised his eyes to look at Xie Fengshu, and slowly said: "How about this, you give me the golden core, and I will spare your life, how about it?"

Xie Fengshu couldn't understand what he was saying at all, he only knew that the cultivation level of the person in front of him was far higher than his own, he didn't say that he hadn't cultivated the golden core yet, he just raised his eyes to look at the top of the mountain.

It's quiet up there, Lu Qiwu should be taking a nap at this moment, Sui Ling and Xiao Xi don't know where they went, they're not at home.

Xie Fengshu felt a little calm in his heart, but also a little flustered.He held Feng Yuan's knife handle tightly, and looked up at Feng Ji.

"I don't know what you're talking about, please get out of the way."

Feng Ji smiled softly: "Look, I let you live, but you just won't."

After finishing speaking, his expression turned cold, and a long silver sword appeared in his hand, and he rushed towards Xie Fengshu.

Xie Fengshu immediately drew his saber out and slashed at the opponent!

Feng Ji jumped up, avoiding the saber, the saber energy swept across the mountain flowers on the half slope, and the bright red petals fell all over the ground.Xie Fengshu immediately raised his head and saw Feng Ji slashing down with his sword in mid-air!

Xie Fengshu raised his saber to counter it, and took the sword.His wrist was immediately numb from the shock, he took a few steps back, and stepped into the water.

With just two moves, Xie Fengshu knew that he would definitely not be able to defeat the opponent.

He wanted to make the noise bigger so that Lu Qiwu and the others could notice it, but he was also worried that his master and senior sisters would also be put in danger.However, the situation at this time did not allow him to think so much, Feng Ji slashed with his sword again, Xie Fengshu had no choice but to raise his sword to meet the enemy.

Between swords, lights and swords, the mountain flowers and red flowers were rolled up one after another, and it was a bit scary in the dim light of the cloudy sky. Xie Fengshu was forced to be unable to make moves several times, but he was agile and avoided several killing moves. Unwilling to admit defeat, he greeted him with a knife.

Even if he was half-dodging like this, after a long time, Xie Fengshu was a little exhausted, half of his body had already retreated into the lake, and his clothes were almost soaked.When he raised his head again, Feng Ji pointed his sword straight at Xie Fengshu's throat, Xie Fengshu had no way to retreat, seeing that the blade of the sword was about to pass through his throat, but at this moment something happened suddenly!

A section of vine was as fast as lightning, suddenly passed through the mountain flowers, instantly wrapped around Feng Ji's wrist and pulled heavily, the sword deflected, passing Xie Fengshu's cheek.

At the same time, Lu Qiwu's energetic voice came from Banpo, like thunder.

"Little bastard, can't you call someone if you can't beat him!"

Xie Fengshu was overjoyed and shouted: "Master!"

Lu Qiwu stepped on the tip of the grass and leaves and flew down into the air, his gray cloth was rattled by the wind, he looked at Feng Ji and said in a low voice, "I don't know how my little apprentice offended this Demon Lord and wanted to put him to death ?”

Feng Ji said indifferently: "Practicing for a thousand years is not easy, it's better for the old man not to interfere. It's better to drive out such evil disciples as soon as possible, so as not to cause disaster."

"My apprentice is really worry-free." Lu Qiwu laughed loudly, "But if you don't care about your apprentice, then why are you a master!"

At the same time, dozens of vines came from the forest and went straight to Fengji!

The number of vines changed, like a ghost, and they fought with Feng Ji in an instant. Lu Qiwu had an extra dark wooden stick in his hand, and swept across in front of him, creating a gust of mountain wind.

He rushed up, fighting Feng Ji among the vines.

Lu Qiwu usually holds the wine jar and does not let go. He is not in good shape. After all, he has practiced for thousands of years, and his moves often come and go.

When Lu Qiwu came, Xie Fengshu breathed a sigh of relief, and worried about his master's accident, he raised his knife and wanted to help, but just as he took a step, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind and strangled his neck.

That hand was bitingly cold, with no warmth at all, it strangled Xie Fengshu's neck and pulled it down fiercely.

It was Langjin who just disappeared.

Xie Fengshu was unprepared, he was yanked by the opponent, Feng Yuan fell off his hand, and he fell directly into the water.

The lake water instantly submerged Xie Fengshu's ears and nose. He first hit the opponent's chest twice with his elbow, and then pulled the opponent's hand lying in front of him, but Lang Jin's hand tightened and tightened, as if he wanted to twist Break Xie Fengshu's neck.

The battle against Feng Ji just now had exhausted most of his physical strength, the lake water poured into his mouth and nose, and the feeling of suffocation became more and more serious. In a trance, Xie Fengshu could only see the blood-red falling flowers floating on the surface of the water .

He was probably about to be strangled to death.

His consciousness became more and more blurred, he let go of his hands, and passed out.

When Xie Fengshu woke up, he was still a little confused, because he was suffocated for too long, his vision was blurred, and he was in a daze for a long time before he realized that he was in a cave.

His clothes were still wet, sticking to his body wetly, even the ground he was lying on was also wet.He closed his eyes again to adjust his breathing, and when he gained some strength, he barely tried to get up.

As soon as he raised his hand, Xie Fengshu heard a dull sound of iron chains rattling.

He was startled, and sat up a little with difficulty, looking at his wrist.

Both wrists were handcuffed with a pair of iron chains, which were almost as wide as an adult's palm. They were connected to two wrist-thick iron chains. The iron chains extended to the depths of the cave. It moved, and I don't know where it was finally tied.

He didn't have much strength, he knew he had to conserve his strength, so he stopped moving, wanted to close his eyes and adjust his breath, but just as he closed his eyes, a voice suddenly came from his ear.

"woke up?"

Xie Fengshu turned his head to look over, Feng Ji came out from the depths of the cave, stood beside Xie Fengshu and looked at him, with Lang Jin following behind him.

The hairs all over Xie Fengshu's body stood on end, and he was still afraid of being strangled to death, but he was stubborn by nature, and he didn't want to show fear, so he raised his eyes to meet Feng Ji's.

His hair was a little disheveled, it was sticking to his face wet in twos and threes, there were still drops of water on his eyelashes, but his eyes were full of arrogance, staring at Feng Ji.

Feng Ji hated Xie Fengshu's eyes, which easily reminded him of things from the past, so he sneered and looked at the iron chains on the ground.

"How does it feel to be unable to move?"

He still wanted to have a gentle face, but his eyes were no longer peaceful as before, and there was a bit of bone-piercing hatred, icy cold to the bone.

"Thanks to you, this pair of iron chains has locked me for tens of thousands of years, making it difficult for me to see the light of day since ancient times. I always think that one day, you should also try this taste."
