Lie Huo Jiao Chou

The two left the depressed light rail station, flew towards the ancient tomb in the empty suburbs.

Xuan Ji: "Do you know the whereabouts of that bronze tripod?"

When refining the Heavenly Demon, Sheng Lingyuan was an ignorant child, and Xuan Ji was a fledgling who didn't even open his eyes. They were both too young. Only the last 81 monks of the human race sacrificed themselves. The world was really turned upside down. Unforgettable, this made the two of them vaguely remember a few scenes.As for the cause and effect of the sacrifice, although they were witnesses, they are not very clear.

It was only after many years that Sheng Lingyuan pieced together a bit of the truth from the planners and assistants. He frowned and shook his head slowly.

Sheng Lingyuan stripped off the Suzaku blood on his body, and sent Danli to prison, finally unimpeded, covering the sky with both inside and outside.He imprisoned the Empress Dowager Chen in the deep palace. In order to pull out the queen mother's minions, he washed the blood of the Duling Palace once - all the people around the Empress Dowager Chen who could talk were sent to the sky prison, and the methods of skinning and cramping were repeated in turn until No information can be squeezed between the teeth.

"When the catastrophe fell, there was no grass within ten miles of the temple. The people of the Chen family were around the circle of the catastrophe. Someone specially calculated the number of thunderstorms. When the catastrophe stopped for a while, they rushed in immediately to prevent the movement from attracting other clans. Coveting. As a result, Bi Fang was blocked inside. I was stolen by Bi Fang not long after I was born. Later, I was tracked by the human race to the Suzaku blood and snatched me back. In order to seize the opportunity, Bi Fang sent several Master, take the risk to ambush me by the side of the temple, and prepare to steal me again. They thought that the evil spirit bird was not afraid of thunder, but they didn't expect that the thunder disaster was extremely severe. Defeated in the hands of the Chen family," Sheng Lingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling the words he pried out from the mouth of the grandma next to the Empress Dowager Chen, "When the people of the Chen family rushed in, the temple had been wiped out, and there was only one stone sacrifice left." There are 81 kneeling charred corpses under their feet. These two groups of people accidentally touched the statue of Suzaku when they started, and the statue turned into ashes as soon as they touched it, but they didn't mention the bronze tripod."

What Bi Fang said about "failed to keep the little prince" was actually quite untrue. They really regretted the posthumous child of the princess so much, they should interrupt the sacrifice.These monsters have waited for the sacrifice to be successful before they came out to cut off their beards. In fact, they were motivated by greed and wanted to take the refined demon as their own. Unfortunately, they were too eager for quick success and failed.

"So, I still think of one thing," Xuan Ji frowned, "My family belongs to fire, whether it's egg shells or my flesh and blood corpse, they should not be afraid of fire. Who will pick up my pile of remains?" went?"

The word "remains" pierced Sheng Lingyuan's heart, and he frowned involuntarily: "What nonsense are you talking about? You speak without restraint, and you don't know taboos!"

"Oh, there are so many taboos, you feudal antique, you have so many problems," Xuan Ji grabbed his wrist, rubbed it, and changed his rhetoric helplessly, "Okay, who picked up my young body? Ruined?"

Sheng Lingyuan: "..."

Xuan Ji: "My family has rough skin and thick meat that can withstand high temperatures. The stewed soup must not be cooked well, and it is unrealistic to eat it raw—unless you are at the level of the demon king, otherwise I will easily be stuffed to death... That, the emptiness will not be replenished." .”

"It's with me." Sheng Lingyuan was silent for a while before saying softly.

Xuan Ji: "Huh?"

When did it happen, why didn't he know?

"Bi Fang belongs to Suzaku," Sheng Lingyuan said. "Whoever sees the Suzaku Heavenly Spirit... will naturally take away as a sacrifice. The human race only wants the Heavenly Demon and nothing else, so the Suzaku Heavenly Spirit will be taken away by Bi Fang." Yes. After my five senses failed, I asked for a cub from the Bifang clan, which was convenient to drive. Their patriarch was worried that I had no eyeliner, so he sent the cub to me. you."

He remembered that it was a small brocade box, inside there were a few gem-like eggshells, and a bird carcass whose original appearance could no longer be seen, a small ball no bigger than a palm, with faint red fluff, but lifeless Close your eyes.

Sheng Lingyuan had already cut off his seven emotions at that time, and when he got this little thing, he didn't feel any fluctuations in his heart - he couldn't even connect the remains with the Heavenly Demon Sword, so he just put it away instinctively.

Xuan Ji threw his hand away.

That's right, he forgot if he didn't mention this, I heard that there was a young Bifang chick who was taken as a hostage by the Bifang clan and kept by the Emperor's side when he was not around, and served as his personal bodyguard for more than ten years!

More than ten years, close fit!

It was less than 20 years since he was with Sheng Lingyuan as a sword spirit, and the time when both of them were ignorant kids, and the time when they were quarreling and angry with each other... how many days are left to accompany him?

Later, Sheng Lingyuan peeled Suzaku's blood. In order to cover up his inability to see and see, he often used that Bi Fang's eyes in addition to macaroni!

Sheng Lingyuan was thrown by him, and subconsciously explained: "I kept it well..."

Xuan Ji spoke almost at the same time as him, with a very yin and yang tone: "Oh, the Bifang clan, I heard that they are all good-looking, and their little highness is quite likable, right?"

Sheng Lingyuan was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing: "No, she's well-behaved and obedient, never angry with me, just..."

Before he finished speaking, Xuan Ji spread his wings suddenly, pulled Sheng Lingyuan over, and took advantage of the sparsely populated suburbs, directly dragged him into the air.His wings are fiery red, and he can adjust whether there is fire or not, and how strong the fire is. It is smarter than a gas stove, but Xuan Ji usually only sets his wings on fire when he is fighting with others to protect his back.Usually when he leads people, he will turn off the fire - because it is too ostentatious and looks weird.

At this time, he seemed to be showing off on purpose, despite the golden flames on his wings blinding people's eyes, maybe seeing the gold sinking, he planned to take over, illuminating the rising night with snow, making Sheng Lingyuan unable to open his eyes for a while.

"Okay, I'm not as good as you," Sheng Lingyuan quickly tilted his head to cover his eyes, "Quickly put away your supernatural powers."

Xuan Ji snorted coldly, extinguished the fire on the wings, and asked: "What happened later? You have a new love with a little fairy, where did you throw my bones?"

Sheng Lingyuan: "Well, I threw it into Chiyuan."

"Believe it or not, I'll throw you down."

Sheng Lingyuan laughed, and raised his hand to pinch a feather that was blown to his face by the wind. There were still sparks on the feather, but when it touched him, it was not hot at all, and it was warm, as if it had caught a handful of light.

"I'm not kidding you, I'm indeed in Chiyuan," Sheng Lingyuan said, "I was deceived by the Chen family for many years, and I didn't know that I was a demon until Bi Fang confessed, and I didn't expect you to stay here. Send it, I have no place to put it..."

Although Xuan Ji knew that he was a pure demon body at that time, his humanity was drained with Suzaku's blood, his mental state was worrying, and no matter what crazy things he did, it was not necessarily out of intention, but when he heard this, the veins on his forehead still popped, almost Really throw him down.

Then I heard Sheng Lingyuan continue to say: "...I will temporarily place you in my heart."

Xuan Ji: "What?"

Sheng Lingyuan said lightly: "Well, it happened that a part of the blood was dug up at that time. It was empty and I'm not used to it. Find something to fill it."

It may also be that there are still some flukes and delusions in my heart, looking forward to the day when I can hear a loud "Ling Yuan" in the dead sea of ​​consciousness, but unfortunately I never waited.

"Later, I was busy killing people and destroying Chiyuan, and I was busy with my daily affairs, so I forgot about it."

Also, how could Gufen speak?

"I should have brought them into Chiyuan together," Sheng Lingyuan thought for a while, and then said, "Did you leave it in the magma? Have you seen it?"

Xuan Ji: "No."

The two looked at each other for a moment.

Sheng Lingyuan: "Wait, is that Suzaku Tianling?"

Not to mention his own remains, a pure-blood Suzaku descendant like Xuan Ji, even a drop of Suzaku blood that Sheng Lingyuan put on the prince, he can smell it from a long distance.It stands to reason that the remains of Suzaku are not burnt, even if he didn't pay attention because he saw Sheng Lingyuan jumping down, he was in a state of confusion, after 3000 years in Chiyuan, he would not have been completely unaware.

Sheng Lingyuan: "But Bi Fang had already sworn a blood oath at that time, it is impossible to deceive the king."

Then there is only one possibility, and Bi Fang also admitted his mistake.

"That is to say, there were three groups of people at that time," Xuan Ji said. "The human race was afraid of being struck by lightning, so they hid outside the thunder circle, and they couldn't keep up with the heat when eating shit. Before them was Bi Fang, who was lurking in the thunder circle at that time. , outside the temple. Another group of unknown people took my remains... probably the bronze tripod. This third party force was still before Bi Fang, so where could they... hide?"

The only possibility is in the temple.

The person who took the remains was not only able to hide in that temple miraculously, he also knew that the Bi Fang clan was guarding outside. The bronze tripod was fine, but Suzaku Tianling would definitely not be burned by the sky fire, Bi Fang It must be very strange for them to rush in and not see the remains of Suzaku, so I left them a fake one.

But Bi Xianglai is Suzaku's follower, even they can admit their mistake, there must be the aura of Suzaku on that fake skeleton that can be mistaken for the real one.

"Is it a statue?" Xuan Ji asked, "Is it possible that it is Danli..."

"No, it's not Danli," Sheng Lingyuan murmured, "Danli was with the human race at that time."

Danli was released by the princess with a big gloomy sacrifice, but unfortunately the princess was pregnant, and the blood sacrifice failed. What was sacrificed was a faceless, shady half-finished product, and the remaining power was sucked away by the fetus in her stomach until the fetus was killed. After being put to death and refined into a heavenly demon, the innate power absorbed was released a little, allowing Danli to move freely, somewhat human.

The method for the human race to refine the Heavenly Demon was dedicated to Empress Chen by Dan Li, who was still behind Chen's back then as the spirit...

Xuan Ji: "I suddenly remembered that there is another person."

Sheng Lingyuan: "Me too..."

Danli has a "confidante woman" by his side who has been taking care of his daily life.This woman has a very low sense of existence, and she is usually like a shadow of ironing posts. That confidante is called——

The two said in unison: "Meng Xia."

Xuan Ji: "I always thought she was just Danli's shadow person."

"She is indeed a shadow person," Sheng Lingyuan frowned. "It was because of her that I thought the owner's shadow person would be a problem, so I ordered it to be cleaned up. Meng Xia... was killed by me when Qizheng was ten years old."

Wait, Qizheng ten years?

The year of the death of the owner of Biquanshan ancient tomb was the tenth year of Qizheng!

While talking, they had already arrived at the ancient tomb of Biquan Mountain. Looking down from above, the hill where the entire ancient tomb is located seemed to have grown into a virgin forest overnight, surrounded by dense plants with three layers inside and three layers outside. The museum building outside the ancient tomb is completely submerged inside, and the entrance cannot be seen.

A towering tree stands in it, right at the location of the ancient tomb, looking like a huge wedge from a distance, nailed into the depths of the earth.

The disturbing "echo sound" is continuously emerging from the ground, flowing in all directions through the big tree, and all the plants resonate accordingly.
