Chapter 8 Chapter 8: Hellfire

Under the light, the pieces of fiery red manjusawa seemed to be burning, like the fire that would never be forgotten in her memory... the fire that burned her life's joy and happiness. There were fierce fighting sounds and shouts in her ears, the thick smoke made her unable to breathe, burning wood fell from the top of her head from time to time, and the curtains were already on fire—the thirteen-year-old girl couldn't help crying, but She didn't dare to move around, and stayed in the room obediently—because although her father didn't care about her, she knew that her brother would definitely come here to save her, and would definitely come here to take her away.

Therefore, she didn't dare to walk around alone, she hugged her shoulders and huddled in a corner of the room, waiting until her throat became hoarse from crying. When the thick smoke almost suffocated her, she finally heard the sound of footsteps rushing desperately—coming and leaving in a flash, she didn't even have time to call out, and saw the backs of two people running away hand in hand in the thick smoke and fire . "Tian Lai, how can you be so domineering? Yu Xiao is only one year older than you, but you can see how sensible she is..." "If you mess around again, I won't want you!"

The words in the daytime were still in my ears, and the fire spread from all directions, surrounding the thirteen-year-old children.Suddenly she couldn't cry anymore, she just sat there blankly and stretched out her hands, but she didn't shout - she just watched her brother pull the jade flute, run away through the burning fire and the falling giant logs . She was left here.Brother... don't want her anymore. Brother doesn't want her anymore!He pulled Yuxiao and left her, and ran away. The raging fire, the thick smoke, the screams of the dying, and the falling burning giants - but all these disturbed and suddenly lost their color in the child's eyes.Her hands were still stretched forward, as if she wanted someone to hug her, but her big eyes were blank, her mouth was slightly opened, but she couldn't utter a single syllable.

A burning rafter fell, bringing howling wind and fire.However, the child's eyes are empty, and it seems that she can't see at all, let alone dodge. She just sat there with her arms outstretched, until the rafter hit her little arm with a dull sound and scorching sound. smell. The arm was broken and drooped limply, but the pair of small hands still did not retract, they stretched straight there, facing the direction of the back that had disappeared in the thick smoke, as if still hoping to see the figure of the boy in white looking back. However, there was nothing... The whole house was collapsing, as if a burning sky had fallen.

She knew that the sky in her heart had actually fallen... The thirteen-year-old child stared blankly at everything in front of him, as if he was so frightened that he went into a daze, and didn't even know how to dodge or scream.The surrounding fire spread over and surrounded her, licking her clothes and hair.The gorgeous fire is like an open red flower, but the eyes of the child reflecting the fire are still black and white and empty. Another girder was blown, and the giant tree roared and fell, falling head-on. Are you going to die... At that moment, a strange smile flashed in the child's eyes, his body was motionless, even his hands were still stretched out stiffly towards the burning air, and the burning fire falling all over the sky was reflected in his eyes.

However, at that moment, her hand stretched out into the air suddenly touched something real.The half-hidden door opened suddenly, and the white clothes flew over like lightning, the skirts of the clothes brushed against the flames, and with a slight bend, he picked her up, pointing to his toes, and hugged her to face the falling fire, waiting for her to exclaim At that time, the burning house was already underfoot. "Brother!" She hugged the man in white tightly with her broken hand, and cried out in surprise, "Brother!" "……"no answer.The wind whistled in his ears, and the man had already hugged her and landed on the open space. He lowered his head to look at the little girl in his arms, and suddenly smiled slightly: "I'm not your brother."

What caught the child's big black and white eyes was the strange face of a handsome man, handsome and handsome, but the eyes under the brow ring were the deep blue color unique to Miaojiang people, and he bent down to look at it with an evil smile. Looking at her, the black hair was hanging down her face... The child suddenly exclaimed: "It's not my brother, it's not my brother!" "Master Priest, are you alright?" Some people gathered around and reported respectfully, "This subordinate is not doing his job well, just now let the young owner of Jianjian Villa escape from the fire - please punish him, Lord Priest."

escaped?Elder brother... pulled Yu Xiao and escaped from these devils? ! At that moment, the child's mouth opened slightly, showing an expression that he didn't know whether to cry or laugh. "Hey...it's really pitiful. Come back with me, okay?" He didn't listen to the elder's report at all, seeing the violently changing emotions in the child's eyes, the white-robed man just raised his hand and stroked it gently. The girl's delicate face smiled, "Look, your brother doesn't want you anymore - follow me back to the Moon Palace, okay?" "Don't!" She blurted out in alarm, struggling: "Let go of me! I want to go home...I want to go home!"

"It's really disobedient... No one has ever dared not to listen to me." However, the handsome demon priest did not lose his temper, but smiled gently, as if teasing a beautiful doll, "Okay, I I'll take you home, okay?—But, I'm afraid you will be sent back if you go back." For some reason, facing this man who was more handsome and gentle than his elder brother, the child only felt unspeakable fear, struggling desperately, trying to break free from his embrace.However, no matter how much she struggled, those slender hands hugged her tightly, and under the forehead ring, those dark green eyes were also smiling, looking at her all the time——suddenly, her sanity began Falling into a coma, unknowingly falling asleep under such bottomless eyes...

That sleep lasted eight years. It was a nightmare that she couldn't wake up from—until she usurped the position of the leader of the Moon Worship Sect and tried desperately to get rid of it, she still couldn't wake up from that nightmare.Yunxi... Yunxi.That name is like a Gu poison that penetrates into the bones, entangled life and death, every time I think of his eyes and heart when he finally fell into the hell at the bottom of the lake, it seems like a fire is burning in his heart. He mercilessly snatched her away from all her relatives, severed all ties between her and this world, and thought that she only belonged to him from now on.However, he forgot, how can a child who no longer loves anyone rely on him?

Looking up, the moon has reached the middle of the sky, casting cold light on the land of Lingnan. When the time is up, do the "brothers and sisters" of the Ye family still want to fight? ——There was a sneer on the corner of his lips, his little hand moved away from the clay pot, picked up the piccolo beside him, and blew it lightly, and the sound of rustling footsteps was immediately heard in the quiet empty village.Countless black shadows moved in the dark corners, with pale faces walking towards the wooden building. Eight years ago, he was able to throw his own sister into the fire pit; now, is he not willing to cut off the head of that impostor? The girl's eyes suddenly filled with indescribable gloom, and with a wave of the flute, she beat a zombie kneeling in front of her to vomit blood, and stood up with a sneer: "Okay, then, Ye Tianzheng, just wait and see how I torture you in front of you." That bitch! The big red shoulder has already stopped outside the wooden building, and the gold stars are strung together into a bead curtain, shining brightly under the light of the torch - that is the pedestal she brought out from the Moon Palace on Lingjiu Mountain, worshiping the moon The leader's shoulder.In addition to the two famous Jian Luo Baihui and Shi Jie from Jianjian Villa, there were also two leaders and deputy leaders of Qinglonghui, another sect in southern Xinjiang, who carried the sedan chair. What a luxurious lineup... The black sheep she grazes will be even bigger after tonight, right? The zombies knelt in two rows and prostrated themselves in front of her, from her seat to the parked shoulders on the stone path outside the wooden building.A sneer appeared on the corner of the child's mouth, he raised his foot, stepped on the head of a zombie in front of him, stood up, stepped on those heads step by step, and walked towards the shoulder parked outside the door. The dark night is like iron, and the abnormally strong red flowers blooming under the night seems to imply that the blood will soon flow all over Luofu Mountain. Walking to the side of the shoulder, stepping on Shi Jie's white-haired head with the soles of his feet——Suddenly, he heard a commotion from the zombie crowd outside the village, as if something was rushing here desperately. Is it the people from the Sword Trial Villa who want to launch this decisive battle in advance?I'm really in a hurry to find death... There was a sneer on the corner of her lips, she sat on the shoulder chair, raised her hand slightly, and motioned for the zombies to lift up the sedan chair.When the piccolo sounded, a large group of pale-faced zombies surrounded the girl in the red pleated skirt, and walked slowly towards the sword-testing villa in the dark. The riot was getting closer and closer, and it didn't feel like there was a large group of people attacking. Instead, the girl looked a little surprised, and waved to stop the advancing team. The zombies retreated to both sides, and the blood-red clothes Floating to this side, the woman ran forward while waving the hands of the zombies with all her strength. "Oh?" Suddenly recognized who was coming, the girl's beautiful pupils suddenly condensed, and a gesture made all the zombies stop their hands and feet, allowing the coming person to stumble and run over, kneeling under her shoulders, staggering Grabbing the corner of her skirt: "Master...Master, please, please stop!" "Bitch." There was a disgusted smile on the corner of the girl's mouth, and her foot suddenly stepped on the other person's face, "Why, you dare to come back to see me without bringing Ye Tianzheng's head? Didn't I say that, unless you cut off other people's head and give it to me?" Me, I will save you from the sin of being devoured by ten thousand snakes? Do you think that I am the priest of the last breath, and I will tolerate you for so long without punishment?" "Master, stop!" The woman couldn't raise her head to look at her, but she refused to let go, her voice was in a trance because of exhaustion, "You can throw me to feed snakes or scorpions... that is You deserve it. But please stop! If you go any further, Tianzheng will be driven insane by you! He has already made up his mind to kill you! He is not far from insanity...don't force him anymore!" "Are you going to kill me? Is that so?" The girl stepped on the opponent's face and suddenly paused. She didn't know what kind of expression was on her pretty face. She suddenly sneered and kicked the girl away: "It's very Good, good...I'll just wait and see how he kills me!" "Hello! One would rather fight to the death than hand you over, and the other would rather be devoured by ten thousand snakes than listen to the leader's order! It's really... really affectionate." The golden stars on the shoulder curtain were She was holding it in her hand, and the thin rope sprinkled golden powder. The girl bit her mouth hard, and suddenly laughed silently, her eyes were cold and stern, "You bitch, you sneaked into the test room eleven years ago under the order of Priest Yunxi." Jianshanzhuang, now you dare to betray the Moon Worship Sect again! Instigated my brother to abandon me, coaxed my father to accept you as a adopted daughter, and even wanted Li Daitao to marry into the Nangong family instead of me—hahaha, who do you think you are? Is it a chess piece sent by the Moon Worship Sect to try the sword villa, and fight with me? Don't you think your life is long?" "How dare this subordinate compete with Second Miss..." Such a vicious tone made the visitor tremble uncontrollably, "This subordinate was originally kept by Second Miss in the villa, but he conspired to seize the villa in order to obey the priest's secret order; For the sake of teaching the people, but disobeying the order of the leader for the trial sword villa—no matter...no matter which side it is, there is more than enough to die, and I dare not argue." "Don't call me Second Miss!" Those words made the girl on the shoulder even more furious, "Second Miss is dead long ago! You don't have to pretend to be pitiful—my brother isn't here, so it's no use pretending to be pitiful!" However, when he suddenly realized that he blurted out the word "my brother" in a rage, the girl's expression changed slightly, she just snorted coldly and stopped talking. "Yes. Please allow me to die." Yu Xiao lowered her head, "I hope the leader will calm down and let Jianjian Villa survive. Don't let brothers kill each other—even if my subordinates die, they will be grateful to the leader." "Hey," there was a long silence, the girl didn't speak, she just looked at the subordinate who was kneeling on the side with her cold eyes, and a piercing smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "I really can talk... Before Yunxi sent you to try the sword villa Being an undercover agent means you value your ability to speak well, right? ——I want to see what your tongue looks like?" Before the words fell, the red clothes fluttered, and a golden thin rope flew out like a ghost, strangling the woman's throat, causing her to open her mouth involuntarily due to suffocation, with a "poof", another The sharp golden cord pierced her jaw. The little hand was tightening the thread, suddenly a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips, and he relaxed his hand. "I'm not in a hurry to kill you... Keep your tongue, and tell Ye Tianzheng this story by yourself later!" The girl looked at the woman who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, her eyes were as bright as lightning, "Let him see, so What kind of beautiful snake has he been with all these years!" "Master...Master," as if frightened by such an order, Yuxiao struggled forward and grabbed onto the shoulder, "Please don't! The priest promised me that he would not let Tianzheng know my identity... He promised me!" "Yunxi is Yunxi, and I am me. He promised you, but I didn't agree! Don't try to use him to suppress me!" A sneer appeared on the corner of the girl's mouth, and she kicked away the hand that climbed up in disgust, "You probably don't Do you know where Yun Xi is now? Hee, he is probably still in the water dungeon under the holy lake, biting and biting with those evil spirits in order to survive or die." Yuxiao suddenly froze, looked up at the new leader in disbelief, and murmured: "How...how is it possible. You, you give the high priest of Yunxi to...? The high priest will not die, no People can control Lord Yun Xi!" "Impossible? Do you also think that I will be kept as a pet by Yun Xi forever, and that it is impossible to climb to the ground to seek revenge from you?" Speaking of the high priest of the Moon Worship Cult who was thrown into hell by himself, the girl in red The sneer on the corner of his lips suddenly turned into a blurted laugh, "Hahaha... what is the immortal body! Isn't it the same as being imprisoned under the holy lake? Now the Moon Worship Sect is mine! It's mine! No one can stop it anymore I……" The laughter gradually stopped, and the girl's cold eyes fell back on the pale-faced Yu Xiao, and she suddenly snorted: "I don't think that's enough, if you tell Ye Tianzheng your true colors and let him kill you, it will be a little bit It's boring...but there's no other way, why is he refusing to bring your head to see me?——Then I'll peel off your painted skin to let him see clearly, and let him tell you what you should do You shouldn't be killed! If he also says he won't kill you, I'll let you go!" As if being burned by such a terrible gaze, Yu Xiao's face was as pale as death, trembling, and finally lowered her head, and replied as thin as gossamer: "If... Master Ye doesn't kill me, will the master, the master really let me go? ?” "Oh...Of course. Of course!" Looking at the woman in white who was kneeling at her feet, remembering how much this person had obtained for her over the years, a terrifying sharp sword formed in the girl's eyes, as if she wanted to kill the beautiful and gentle woman in front of her. The woman cut it into pieces and laughed, "If he actually says you don't deserve to die, then he is the one who should die!" Ye Tianzheng took Sun Feng and the housekeeper to inspect the villa once, and when everything was properly arranged, night had already fallen, and the smell of blood was wrapped in the wind and approaching. Sensing the attack of murderous intent keenly, the young owner of the villa coughed slightly, but turned his head and told the housekeeper: "Let the second lady take the female family members and hide in the purple cloud cave behind the villa, no matter what the situation outside is, you are not allowed to come out! " However, before he finished speaking, he saw a young girl among the people guarding the villa around him, and he couldn't help frowning.Just as he was about to speak, the young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes next to the girl hurriedly saluted and argued: "Master, this is my sister! ——she refuses to hide in Ziyun Cave, she insists on following me." "No, it's very dangerous here," Ye Tianzheng ordered coldly, not wanting to talk to the siblings, and waved his hand, "Don't let your brother worry about you." "I don't!" Although she was facing the owner, the girl pulled her brother's sleeve, trembling slightly because of fear, but her face was stubborn, "I'm afraid... I'm afraid if I don't stay with my brother in Ziyun Cave !" Seeing how the two brothers and sisters depended on each other, Ye Tianzheng's face turned pale, and he suddenly said sharply: "No! It's easy to die if you stay outside... If a brother is worried about his sister, You shouldn't have let her stay outside! Steward, take her back to Ziyun Cave!" "Yes!" After being blocked for nearly half a year, the housekeeper's chubby face sank, and he agreed in a low hoarse voice, but a embarrassed expression appeared on his face, "It's just... the owner, I'll watch it after dinner." There is no shadow of Second Miss..." "What?" Ye Tianzheng was slightly shocked, and was about to ask a question, when suddenly there was a faint sound of piccolo in the wind. The mournful sob, like the cry of a child, came in the dark night.Such a thin and weak voice, but like a spell calling for death, shocked all the remaining people in the Sword Trial Villa, and chilled them to the bone - that person... that devil who hides in the dark night and manipulates the zombies is about to come! "Everyone be careful!" Ye Tianzheng didn't have time to think about it any longer, he sternly reminded the disciples around him, drew his sword and leaped to the top of the wall.There, dressed in blue and facing the wind, it was Nangong Mo who held the Miehun Sword and stood on the high wall in a daze, looking at the way the dark night was full of fiery red manjusawa. "She's coming." Without turning his head, but knowing that his friend had rushed to his side, Nangong Mo suddenly murmured, raised his hand, and pointed to the vast dark night, "Little Yezi...Little Yezi is going to come from here." I'm coming over on this road. It's exactly the same as ten years ago, wearing bright red clothes, big eyes..." "It's not Xiao Yezi, it's the Lord of Worshiping the Moon." Ye Tianzheng added coldly, hearing the confusion in his friend's tone.However, I suddenly felt a sharp sword twisting in my heart and lungs, and I couldn't help coughing violently, "It's the Lord of Worshiping the Moon..." As if feeling that his emotions had reached the limit, and he didn't dare to think about anything, Ye Tianzheng clenched the famous sword Zhuanpo in his hand, and turned his head: "Nangong, do you still remember the swordsmanship we practiced against each other before? —— Your sky-butting swordsmanship, coupled with our Ye family's Tianluo out-of-shape swordsmanship, we all know what kind of power it can exert." Ten years ago, under the phoenix tree, the Miehun sword and Zhuanpo sword flashed brightly. Two handsome young men danced their swords and fought each other. His feet were shaking, and there was a sweet smile on his little face. Losing his mind, Nangong Mo let go of his hand, and the Miehun Sword fell from his hand to the ground outside the village.
