Jianghuihai border, Zhaoyang mountain city.
The golden red sunlight fell between the overlapping clouds. At the beginning of the hour, the sun rose. Even the ancient city walls were soaked in the golden color of the rising sun.
"Master Hanxiu, it's time to eat."
On the platform of the majestic pavilion, dozens of sumptuous dishes were brought up one after another by some young maids in gauze. A middle-aged man who looked like a butler hunched his body slightly and looked at the people sitting respectfully. The handsome young man above.
The young master responded calmly, waved his robe sleeves slightly, and signaled the middle-aged man to retreat.
The middle-aged man saluted again, then turned around and walked off the platform, retreating to the side.
Those young maids stood beside the table. Some were holding silk cloths, some were carrying soup, and some were waiting with chopsticks. Without exception, these maids looked at the young master with full awe in their eyes. .
In this Yingxia City, apart from Liuguang Shangzhen, who is in charge of Yingxia, the young master in front of him is the most noble. Now he has begun to ignite the fire in his heart, whether it is the "seedlings" from various places or the four Many masters from the sect do not dare to be disrespectful to Master Hanxiu.
The young master took the silver chopsticks from the maid's hand, picked up some dishes with an expressionless face, and gently put them into his mouth. There was a confusion in his eyes that no one else could see.
The closer he came to igniting the fire in his heart, the more he became aware of the unreasonable feeling of palpitations.
It seems that once the fire in my heart is really ignited, I will come into contact with some extremely terrifying things, and these things are terrifying things that I cannot face at this moment no matter what.
After barely taking a few bites of the food, Han Xiu became increasingly irritable. He put down the silver chopsticks in his hand and said, "Just take it away."
The maids seemed not surprised by this scene, they all picked up the dishes without saying a word and took them away one after another.
"Master Hanxiu is having his meal right now. You'd better come back later."
The voice of the middle-aged housekeeper came up. Hanxiu frowned and said, "Who is making the noise?"
The housekeeper didn't care about dealing with the visitors, and hurriedly turned around and walked onto the platform, smiling apologetically and saying, "Master Qi, Master Daniu is here to pay you an audience."
When the maids on the side heard the words "Daniu Master", they all secretly covered their faces and smiled. It was obvious that they were no strangers to this person.
Hanxiu sighed and said, "Let him come up."
The middle-aged housekeeper responded hurriedly: "I understand."
Then he turned around and shouted loudly to the guards below, "Master Da Niu is invited!"
After a few breaths, a middle-aged warrior wearing a silk robe strode onto the platform under the guidance of the guards.
Hanxiu pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Uncle Liu, sit down."
Liu Daniu smiled naively, and without being polite, he sat down and said, "Hanxiu, I have used up the 'spirit-containing stones' you gave me last time. I came here because I want to talk to you again." You beg for some.”
Han Xiu glanced at the middle-aged butler beside him and said, "Go and get ten 'Yunling Stones'."
The middle-aged housekeeper responded and was about to leave when Liu Daniu beside him said: "Not long ago, Xiao Zhuzhu also entered the realm of virtual fire, so ten 'Yunling Stones' may not be enough..."
Hearing this, the middle-aged housekeeper stopped and looked at Han Xiu who was sitting at the head.
Han Xiu looked at Liu Daniu's somewhat indescribable expression and said, "Take thirty pieces of 'Yunling Stones'."
The middle-aged housekeeper looked troubled and said: "Master Hanxiu, the monthly quota allocated to the mansion by Liuguang Shangzhen is only twenty pieces of 'Yunling Stone'..."
"Can't you hear what I say?" Han Xiu said with a slightly cold tone, "Go and get it immediately."
The housekeeper shut his mouth, and without saying another word, he retreated.
No matter how thick-skinned Liu Daniu was, he noticed the strange atmosphere here. He could neither sit nor stand, so he could only sit in the unbearable silence without saying a word.
Looking at Master Xuhuo in front of him with his sleeves, there is no trace of the resolute hunter he once was in him.
In the silence that lasted for a long time, the middle-aged housekeeper finally walked onto the platform holding a box and placed it next to Liu Daniu. He turned to Han Xiu and said: "Master, thirty pieces of 'Yunling Stones' have been brought .”
Liu Daniu seemed to finally heave a sigh of relief and looked eagerly at Han Xiu who was sitting at the top.
Hanxiu said softly: "Uncle Liu, please take these 'Yunling Stones' and use them. Brother Zhuzhu has just entered the realm of virtual fire. He still needs to go to Zhaoyang Dream Array many times to lay the foundation."
As if he had received an imperial edict, Liu Daniu took the wooden box into his hand and said with a smile, "Hanxiu, I have to thank you very much this time."
"Uncle Liu, there is no need to do this." Han Xiu did not pay too much attention to this matter, but changed the topic and mentioned another matter, "I asked Uncle Liu to go to the Suppressing Evil Sect on my behalf. What happened?"
Liu Daniu was stunned for a moment, as if he had just remembered this matter, and said remorsefully: "Look at my brain, I have been busy with Zhu Zhuxuhuo during this period, and I actually forgot about it!"
Hanxiu sighed and said: "It's okay, I'll find someone else to go. If Liuguang hadn't really made me angry, I wouldn't have bothered Uncle Liu before."
Liu Daniu's expression became more and more solemn, as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He didn't want to stay here anymore, so he said, "That's very good. I'll go first."
He nodded and said, "Uncle Liu, please go."
After hearing these words, Liu Daniu walked down the platform as if running away and left the pavilion.
The middle-aged butler who was standing by had a look of resentment on his face. He looked at where Liu Daniu had left and gritted his teeth and said: "This guy is so ungrateful! The master treated him so well, but this guy has always been obsessed with the master." Ask for it!”
Hanxiu waved his hand and said: "As time changes, everyone will change. There are no exceptions to everything in the world. This is human nature and there is no need to be too harsh."
"Master truly has the heart of a Bodhisattva. His kindness, forgiveness and virtuous heart can be felt by heaven and earth, and we are deeply impressed by him."
The middle-aged butler responded one after another, and delivered a meal of flattering words in a coherent manner.
Hanxiu stood up a little irritably and said, "Everyone, please step aside."
After a few breaths, only the thin young guru remained on the platform, and all the attendants retreated.
"Actually, with my insight, I could have really ignited the fire in my heart a long time ago, but I never dared to take this step..."
"What terrible thing will happen..."
Han Xiu frowned and looked up at the golden-red sun above the heavy clouds in the sky. His anxious mood did not ease in the slightest.
Quietly, a beautiful girl in a red dress walked out slowly, walked to Hanxiu's side, and whispered: "What are you waiting for?"
With sleeves, she turned her head sideways and looked at the pale profile of the girl in the red skirt. The person who was clearly so close seemed to be infinitely far away from her in time and space, out of reach.
When the girl in the red dress saw that he was silent, she turned around, and with the breeze blowing, a strand of black hair was stuck in the corner of her bright red lips. She smiled softly and said: "Quickly ignite the fire in your heart, don't hesitate anymore. ”
Hanxiu gritted his teeth hard and said, "I know that you and the people behind you are waiting, waiting for me to ignite the fire in my heart, waiting for me to completely fall into that unknown fear. This is unfair..."
The beautiful eyes of the girl in the red dress flowed and fell on the face with sleeves, and said: "There is no fairness in everything in this world. If you had not ignited the fire in your heart, you would only have more than a hundred years left. I can wait for just over a hundred years, but you... have no choice."
Hanxiu looked at her hatefully, but deep in his heart, there was a feeling of despair and powerlessness.
Even though he has become a virtual fire master, he still has the shackles of longevity. Only by truly igniting the inner fire can he extend his life by four hundred years, and he can live forever like a streamer.
But the deepest throbbing in his heart told him that once the fire in his heart was ignited, what awaited him would be an eternal horror.
"More than a hundred years...then just wait!"
Han Xiu gritted his teeth and said.
"Then wait. When your life is over, you will have no choice but to ignite the fire in your heart. It will be very interesting to think about it."
The girl in the red dress curled her lips and smiled softly. She looked at Huanxiu with her eyes as if looking at an ant, full of indifference and alienation.
The bright red light dispersed, and Hanxiu came to his senses in a daze. The beautiful girl beside him had left, and only the delicious fragrance of the girl's hair was left between his mouth and nose.
Admiration, resentment, doubt, confusion...many complicated emotions were intertwined together, making Han Xiu even more resentful towards the girl in the red dress.
He stared blankly at the gradually dissipating bright red light, his mood extremely complicated.
