Master, he tore up the script

A pair of eyes were stuck to Pei Ling's body, and she couldn't move them away.

The internal structure of this cave is complicated. After entering, there are several forks in the road. The deeper you go, the darker the cave becomes.

Xiao Cheng was a little suspicious, whether the firebird deliberately retaliated against them, how could it live in such a narrow place, a bird.

As if hearing the doubts in his heart, Pei Ling said: "It's just laying a nest here to incubate its eggs, and usually doesn't come back."

This was a very common sentence, but it seemed very unusual when it fell into the ears of Xiao Cheng who was already suspicious.

Why is Yu Feiyi so familiar with this place?

The more Xiao Cheng looked at it, the more he felt that there was a problem. He had never been to Huorong Cave in his previous life. How did Yu Feiyi, who would get separated from his teacher in Tianbei Mountain, know?

Xiao Cheng followed behind Pei Ling, observing this person carefully.

But on the way, I don't know what went wrong, wandering around in the cave, Yu Feiyi turned out to be the queen of the palace, Xiao Cheng looked back several times, and saw Yu Feiyi, who was much taller than himself, quietly walking towards his The direction, facial features are hidden under the black cloak, and they can't see clearly, but they always feel that he is looking at him.

Xiao Cheng: "..."

Xiao Cheng was uncomfortable, and Pei Ling was even more uncomfortable. He didn't plan to follow them all the time.

After entering the cave, he has been looking for opportunities, wanting to take the opportunity to leave the team and act alone.

But Xiao Cheng insisted on being in the back, with him watching, it was impossible for him to slip away.

In order not to reveal his secrets, Pei Ling could only continue to follow.

The further you go down, the fewer the forks in the cave, and the higher the temperature inside the cave. Occasionally, you can see the fire in the cracks of the cave—that is the unique dragon vein magma in the fire cave.

Pei Ling managed to find an opportunity to get to the end of the line, and was about to disappear silently at a fork in the road. When she looked up, she saw Xiao Cheng who was in front of him, not leaving, with a pair of eyes staring at him.

Pei Ling: "..."

What's going on, why does his little apprentice keep looking at him?

Pei Ling had no choice but to pretend to rest and follow along as if nothing had happened.

This section of the cave is relatively spacious, and Xiao Cheng waited until Pei Ling came to his side before starting to walk forward. The two were almost walking side by side, and Pei Ling could feel that Xiao Cheng's gaze had been on him.

But he didn't dare to look back at Xiao Cheng, for fear that their eyes would collide.

So they walked forward side by side in a strange atmosphere. After walking for a long time, the people in front stopped suddenly. Then, there was a sweeping movement from the front, and Pei Ling heard the ground buzzing and shaking under his feet. He straightened his expression and turned his body to the side.

The next moment, a big hole was broken in the ground under his feet, Xiao Cheng was a little late to hide, and was almost pulled down directly.

Seeing his staggering posture, Pei Ling quickly reached out and gave him a hand.

As a result, Xiao Cheng himself exerted his strength, and the strength of the two of them was superimposed, and he bumped into Pei Ling.

The body is close, and the touch can no longer be concealed, Xiao Cheng's eyes are filled with astonishment: "You are..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Pei Ling thought something was wrong. Just at this moment, something underneath jumped up. It was a tree root as thick as a man, and its roots were waving like whips against the surrounding stone walls!Qi Zhuheng and the others in front had already been overturned to the ground, and in the chaos, the flamingo also flew away.

However, Xiao Cheng didn't care about the ghosts crying and howling in front of him. He focused all his attention on the man in front of him. Before Pei Ling could react, he stretched out his hand and dropped his cloak.

The familiar face just appeared in front of Xiao Cheng.

Xiao Cheng: "..."

Pei Ling: "..."

Both of them were silent. When they looked at each other, a trace of embarrassment flashed in Pei Ling's eyes.

Xiao Cheng opened his mouth in astonishment, and was about to ask, but Pei Ling grabbed his shoulder and said: "There is a ten thousand year tree spirit in the fire cave, you startled it, it woke up, and the magma will flood up in a while, take them out .”

After finishing speaking, with a little force on his hand, he pushed him into the crowd!

Coincidentally, just running into Qi Zhuheng who was running back, Xiao Cheng knocked him to the ground, and Qi Zhuheng yelled: "What are you doing! Get up and go!"

Xiao Cheng frowned and got up, looked back at Qi Zhuheng, and said: "The dryads here are awake, and the magma will flood up in a while, don't look for any earth fire, run quickly, if you run slowly, you will all Turned to ashes."

Qi Zhuheng was taken aback: "We? What about you?"

Xiao Cheng raised his eyes to look at the place where Pei Ling was standing just now. There was no one else but a black cloak that fell quietly on the ground.

He gritted his teeth: "I'm going to find someone!"

After speaking, he rushed over to pick up the cloak on the ground, and rushed into another hole.

Behind him, Qi Zhuheng yelled: "You really are a lunatic! I will be unlucky to meet you! Don't come to us again if you are not dead!!"

As Xiao Cheng drifted away, the voice disappeared.

The ground under his feet was still shaking, the dryad seemed to have sensed his running, the tree roots were chasing under the ground, Xiao Cheng forgot to look back, and found that the tree roots were so fast that he might not be able to run him.

When the tree root was about to reach his feet, he suddenly dodged to the side, giving way to the tree root. The tree root pulled out from the ground, walked through the narrow cave, and quickly hit the mountain wall on the ground, smashing out A big hole.

There was a little light from the other end of the hole, and Xiao Cheng squeezed through the gap.

Genxu quickly chased after him, and when he was unable to avoid it, a hand suddenly stretched out beside him, grabbed his wrist, and pulled him aside.

The other party exerted great force, as if he was angry. Xiao Cheng was pulled to the ground by him. When he looked up, he saw Pei Ling standing in front of him in black, with his thin waist bound by a belt embroidered with silver patterns. , unbearable.

Xiao Cheng pursed his lips to control his emotions, but unexpectedly, Pei Ling turned his face before him: "Didn't I tell you to go out?!"

Xiao Cheng's temper also rose in his heart, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he stood up from the ground and said: "Master, what are you going to do alone?!"

He emphasized both "Master" and "a person", obviously concealing his identity before accusing Pei Ling.

Pei Ling felt a little guilty, looking at the little apprentice in front of her, she was speechless for a while.

But at this time, after the tree root chasing Xiao Cheng lost its target, it came back to its senses and probed towards the stone room they were in again.

Pei Ling pursed her lips and drew out the sword. The movement was done in one go, chopping the protruding tree roots into fine pieces.

He held the sword in one hand, and stretched out the other towards Xiao Cheng: "Grab me tight."

He asked Xiao Cheng to hold his hand tightly, Xiao Cheng bit his back molars, and held it.

After running violently just now, Xiao Cheng's hands were very hot, with slight sweat stains on his palms, but Pei Ling's hands were very cold, just like him, no matter how hard Xiao Cheng tried, he couldn't cover the heat.

Xiao Cheng was angry and annoyed, he grabbed Pei Ling's hand even harder, and even squeezed his own fingers into Pei Ling's, interlacing his fingers.

But Pei Ling pulled him forward as if she didn't realize what this action meant.

Pei Ling, who was at full strength in the midsummer, was so powerful that he wanted to cut down trees and tear down walls when he encountered them.

After walking a certain distance, Xiao Cheng found traces of people living here. Unlike the natural fire caves outside, there are traces of man-made excavations everywhere. They also came out of a stone room just now.

The tree root probably didn't know who the person who broke into the fire cave was, so he lost his temper and kicked the iron plate. After realizing that he was not Pei Ling's opponent, he immediately withdrew.

But Pei Ling has come all the time, how could he go back like this.

He should also be thankful for concealing his identity by mistake, otherwise, with the cunning of the tree spirit, he would have already run away at this time, but he misunderstood that he was just an ordinary disciple of Lingxianmen, and he took the initiative to reveal his identity just now. Temper shows up.

Pei Ling led Xiao Cheng to chase all the way, going further and further down.

During the journey, he held Xiao Cheng's hand all the time. Occasionally, when it was inconvenient, he would wrap his arms around his waist and send him to the right place.

Xiao Cheng had never seen Pei Ling's side face so closely. In the past, his face, which was too cold and delicate, showed a little more fortitude in the flickering light of the fire cave, just like a knife out of its sheath. A little more aggressive.

It was only then that Xiao Cheng realized that this was the Pei Ling who had saved him in Duke Yu's mansion, not the Pei Ling who was tossed about by those beasts and even lost himself.

Xiao Cheng grabbed Pei Ling's clothes and tightened his five fingers unconsciously.

His heart began to beat violently, and his eyes were glued to Pei Ling's body, and he couldn't move them away no matter what.

Why did this happen, how did this happen... In the end there is nothing but the problem.

However, Pei Ling didn't notice Xiao Cheng's abnormality. He took him through the corridors and finally came to the deepest part of the underground palace - it was a huge cave with a spiral descending stone ladder chiseled on the mountain wall. At the end of the ladder was fiery red magma, and the high temperature reflected their faces.

Xiao Cheng's heartbeat was already fast, but when he was illuminated by the flames, he broke out in a layer of sweat.

Pei Ling couldn't see anything unusual, he was still like an ice sculpture, with a calm expression, he put Xiao Cheng behind the stone steps, and said, "Follow me closely, don't run around."

His tone was the same as usual, but after he finished speaking, he quickly turned his eyes away and walked forward.

Xiao Cheng thought of his overly violent behavior just now, after a moment of surprise, he chased after him: "Master, are you angry?"

Pei Ling paused, and after a while, said: "I concealed my identity from you, I have nothing to be angry about."

He said he was not angry, but his tone was full of anger.

Xiao Cheng took another two steps forward and said, "Master, you are just angry."

Pei Ling: "I'm not angry."

Xiao Cheng said: "Master, are you angry because I chased you here privately?"

Pei Ling: "..."

The little apprentice didn't give up at all, and kept asking and asking, Pei Ling was really annoyed by him, so she had to stop and look back at him: "How do you know that I'm angry?"

Xiao Cheng said: "You speak faster than usual, and you don't like to look at me. You look away quickly, your hand holding the sword is stronger than usual, and your movements are much more ruthless. Your real power is squandered. Just now, the tree roots have retreated. , you still blow up that stone gate."

Pei Ling couldn't believe it: "What do you usually do?"

Xiao Cheng was also taken aback by himself. He didn't notice that he usually observed Pei Ling so carefully.

When asked by Pei Ling, he faltered and couldn't come back.

The more Pei Ling looked at him, the more helpless she became. She really didn't know what kind of apprentice she took in when she was soft-hearted.

I can only ignore this matter with him, turn around and continue walking forward: "I have something to do here, I didn't mean to lie to you, it's very dangerous down here, your current cultivation level, you can't touch these magma, I'm afraid that something will happen to you. "

"I know." As soon as Pei Ling finished speaking, Xiao Cheng quickly said: "I know Master cares about me, but I also want to know what Master is doing here, I... I didn't control myself well, so I'm here, Master, I'm sorry, but I told Senior Brother Qi before I left, he should take other people out!"

Xiao Cheng's apology came too quickly and sincerely. After a slight pause, Pei Ling suddenly felt like he didn't know what to say.

He was silent for a while, and said, "Forget it, follow me closely."
