Born short-lived

The heat wave pushed around violently like the East China Sea on a stormy night. Before reaching the gate of Lanhe City—although it was no longer a gate, like a pile of black cinders—Dong Wen’s horse had already refused to open it. Going forward, it stepped hard just now, sank into the charred mud, and was immediately scalded and twitched its hooves.

The horse neighed mournfully, frantically flicking the mane on its neck to turn around.Dong Min was also impatient, grabbed the reins fiercely, and whipped the horse's buttocks with the other hand: "Go forward!"

The heat wave rushed over layer by layer, wishing to burn the exposed skin. The fire in the city did not appear to be subdued at all. Huge black smoke rose straight into the sky, like a thick ink dipping into the sky from the sky. It's like the muddy water in the world.

"Your Majesty!" Xiangsheng chased up from the back door, and there was a man and a woman with him. The man, Dong Sheng, knew each other. He was Yin Feng, and the woman was a bit strange.

Dongwen's horse is also a "stubborn hoof", and it won't leave if it doesn't want to go. No matter how frantically Ren Dongwen whips its butt with bloodstains, it refuses to take another half step forward.

In fact, Dong Min didn't feel well when the heat wave hit him, but he didn't feel it like a wooden man, so he pulled two reins fiercely, and cursed: "Beast!"

"Your Majesty!" Xiangsheng rushed up, his hands trembling faintly, "Your Majesty, we can't go any further...the fire is too big, maybe it will explode later..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was another loud noise in the city, and a more violent heat wave roared in. The people only had time to lean forward, and the heat wave directly hit a wooden watchtower not far from them. The flagpole on the stage was burnt.

Fortunately, the hottest part is relatively high, so I didn't order them.

"Brother is Vulcan, nothing will happen," the woman behind said with her neck straightened, her voice trembling uncontrollably, "Your Majesty, don't be impulsive."

"Nongyue, do you believe this?" Dong Min turned to stare at her, her eyes were scarlet like a mad dog, and the skin on her face was also red from the high temperature, which made him look full Horror, "Will he be fine if you keep him inside?"

Such a big explosion, not to mention Tiangang Lingwu, the king of heaven and I can roast it into Northwest mutton skewers.

As Dong Min spoke, she tore off the leather water bag she carried around her waist, and drenched herself from head to toe.

Seeing that something was wrong, Wang Sheng hurriedly said, "What are you doing!"

Don't know about the past life, but Dong Sheng knows it very well - Dong Min is going to die.

Dong Min ignored him, turned over and got off the horse, and yelled at Yinfeng Nongyue: "Why are you standing there! Go and adjust the water!"

The two were stunned for a moment, and they didn't dare to say anything, so they immediately split up and sent people to transfer water to put out the fire.

"Then what are you going to do!" Xiangsheng's horse refused to go forward, seeing that Dongwen was about to rush into the city, Xiangsheng was so frightened that his scalp exploded, he jumped off the horse and rushed up to hand Dongwen to the city. hold on.

"You're crazy!! You're fucking crazy!!" Shisheng scolded hoarsely in Dong Wen's ear, his face was so excited that the veins on his face popped up, and his spittle flew, "What do you do when you die?! You die What if Dong'an City is lost!! Think about the prince, the prince is only 17 years old!"

Dong Min obviously couldn't get rid of him, and stepped on the hot scorched mud with both feet, almost cursing frantically: "I'm only 16 years old when I started fighting!"

Furious, he grabbed Dong Min's neckline from behind and yelled in his ear: "Then who else can you save when you die! You can't save anyone! You've been working in vain all your life! Your Dong'an City It’s the barbarian’s territory! We all have to go back to the fairy mountain after you die! Jinyun is really hopeless!!”

I don't know which point in this sentence touched Dong Min, or maybe it was just tired, he seemed to have calmed down a little bit, with one hand tightly clutching his dead elbow, the tears in his eyes were silent dripping.

He couldn't bear the rebirth, the tip of his nose was sore, he pressed Dong Min tightly, and he didn't know whether to comfort him or comfort himself: "It's okay...he is Vulcan after all, it's okay..."

"Go back," Dong Wen paused, "The whole army will be transferred to me, from the Lan River... or any closer water source, to get water to put out the fire..."

Now this season is the dry season. Waiting for a rain is better than waiting for the fire to burn until there is nothing to burn. We can only carry water from the river.

"Wait," Dong Min seemed to think of something again, "I remember... I remember that there is a network of canals in Lanhe City, and some people go there to dig out all the parts that can be dug outside the city."

"Okay," Xiangsheng replied tremblingly, "I'll go right away..."

Before the words of the past life were finished, a tongue of fire licked out from the black smoke at the gate of the city not far in front of them.

"The fire is coming." Said Xiangsheng and was about to drag Dong Min back.

Dong Min looked at the fire but vaguely felt that something was wrong, pressed down the hand of the past life, stared at the fire in a daze: "Wait..."

"... What are you waiting for?" Wang Sheng thought he was going crazy again, followed his gaze and looked forward, and was also stunned.

——In the fire that was slowly moving towards them, there was a human figure indistinctly.

Dong Min's eyes widened, and a burst of ecstasy gradually filled her heart: "Jin... Jinyun..."

The past life was also dumbfounded: "This..."

Before the past life came back to his senses, Dong Min had already rushed towards Jin Yun.

"Jinyun!"

Jin Yun in the fire seemed to hear a familiar voice calling him, raised his head and glanced in Dong Min's direction, and was slightly stunned for a moment.

Dong Min rushed up impatiently, and when he came into contact with the fire around Jinyun, he didn't feel the heat—the fire from Tiangang Lingwu couldn't hurt Hei Ling, so Dong Min finally let out a sigh of relief: " You scared the hell out of me..."

Just as he was about to hug the person in front of him, he suddenly felt a severe burning pain in his lower back.

Dong Min looked up at Jin Yun in astonishment, only to see that Jin Yun looked at him with complex emotions that he couldn't understand, and there was a fire in his dark eyes, with an indescribable sadness.

Immediately afterwards, Dong Min felt his feet burn again, so his heart gradually cooled down. He lowered his head and glanced in a daze: "Jinyun... where is your sword?"

Only then did he realize that Jinyun's hands and waist were empty.

Jinyun smiled wryly: "...It's broken."

There was a buzzing in Dongwen's mind.

Now Jinyun can only rely on his remaining spiritual power to ensure that the fire does not burn Dong Min to death, but it is a pity that he is at the end of his strength and his spiritual power is extremely unstable.

"I'm sorry..." Jin Yun's eyes were red, but he couldn't shed tears. He gently held Dong Min's hand, slowly lifted it to his cheek and rubbed it lightly, just like they had been together countless times before. : "I just want you to be well..."

"I want you to remember," Jin Yun said solemnly, "Always remember, we will never delay or owe you."

"Thank you for taking me this trip, this is the way it is in this life, no procrastination or arrears..."

These words were almost like a thunderbolt to Dong Min, he seemed to be stunned, staring at Jin Yun's face in a daze, unable to utter a word.

Jinyun lowered his head, and gently kissed Dong Min's arm.

Dong Sheng, who was in Dong Min's mind, seemed to be touched by this action, and vaguely felt that the scene in front of him was somewhat familiar.

But Dong Min only felt a heart-piercing burning pain for a moment, and then the flames around her danced wildly for a few times, and then disappeared without a trace together with Jin Yun.

Dong Min hugged her hand and knelt down on the ground in pain.

Dong Sheng felt a sharp pain all over his body, as if his internal organs were twisted together, like ten thousand ants devouring his heart, his scalp was numb from the pain.

For some reason, Dong Sheng almost felt that he could feel some of his pain.

"Never in arrears or arrears" is the last thing Dong Min wants to hear, but it's the last thing he can hear—Dong Sheng doesn't know what Jin Yun's mood is when he said this, and how much courage it takes to say such words .

But Dong Sheng understood what Jin Yun said.

In the past life, I heard Dong Min burst into a mournful cry, like the last wild goose cry in the autumn sky.

The follow-up finishing process became a revolving door in Dong Min's eyes, and Dong Sheng felt that this person was empty all of a sudden, as if there was only a light and broken skin left.

It took two days for the fire to be completely extinguished, and it was only later that the people of Lanhe City heard that they were going to fight in. Knowing that they couldn't beat Fenghuohou, they directly burned the two oil mines under their feet.

——Before that, no one in Huaxu knew that the dark "creepy way" could make such a big commotion.

The men and horses that Jinyun brought in were counted one by one, and all of them were blown up to the point where they couldn't even wrap their bodies in horse leather.Dong Min led people to rummage through the ruins all night before finally finding the "broken" Huozheng bronze sword.

It's more than just "broken", it's broken like a broken eggshell.

Jinyun left as soon as he said he would, leaving only such a pile of broken copper and the shocking burn on Dong Min's wrist.

Dong Sheng didn't know if Jin Yun did it on purpose, but the kiss was really "unforgettable".

Fortunately, the other Tiangang Lingwu noticed that there were remnant souls in the broken bronze sword and black jade beads, and the soul of the fire god had not been completely dispersed. Seal it in a sandalwood box, and set off immediately to rush back.

It took them nearly a month to come, but miraculously, it only took a dozen days to go back, and the army complained a lot.

The sandalwood box was sealed tightly, and Dong Min held the box and rushed to find the priest of the Jiang clan. At that time, there was no Baijing Lingwu, and the status of the priest of the Jiang clan was not much different from that of the witches. Just a great wizard.

It was the first time for Dong Min to visit in person, which made everyone in the Jiang clan panic.

It's a pity that the high priest of the Jiang family shook his head after taking a look - no matter how well sealed it is, as long as the ink jade beads are broken, there is no power to recover.

Jinyun's soul essence is already disabled, and it will be wiped out in ashes in fifteen days.

——Unless they can repair Jinyun's soul element before then.

"But even if it's repaired... Marquis Fenghuo won't be able to return to Xianshan Mountain..." the high priest stroked his beard tremblingly.

"Can't go back to Xianshan?" Dong Min said, "Why can't he go back to Xianshan?... Then what should he do?"

"The sword is the carrier of the sword spirit, and it is also the medium through which the sword spirit communicates between the human world and the fairy mountain," the high priest said, "Now that the Huozheng sword is broken, we don't know how to repair it. Even if we can repair Fenghuohou's soul element, It can only be classified as humane..."

"Humanity?" Dong Min was stunned for a moment, then swallowed, "Really... there is no other way?"

The high priest shook his head.

"Humanity...humanity..." Dong Min murmured nervously, he hadn't slept for several nights, his eyes were bloodshot, when he passed a bronze mirror, Dong Sheng saw that he looked like a nervous breakdown, "Humanity is good... It's good to be alive..."

"Then how to fix it?"

When asked here, the high priest was speechless.

"I'm asking you something!"

The high priest hesitated for a while, and said: "The Tiangang Lingwu is maintained by the spiritual power of the black spirit, and it can cultivate the soul of the sword itself. The Vulcan is the strongest pillar among the 36 pillars of the Tiangang Lingwu... It is also extremely difficult to restore, I am afraid. ..."

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid that His Majesty's life expectancy will be shortened by 50 years."

But where did Dong Min get her 50-year lifespan? With such a discount, it is no different from sudden death on the spot.
