Wherever "Jiang Qi" travels, creatures will be conceived, but the process of gestation is not complete, and the creatures will always disappear in the final stage. Similar to "Changgu", "Jiang Qi" also seems to be pregnant with all kinds of creatures in the world. An all-encompassing place like the Four Beast Realms does not contain as many kinds of creatures as those under "Jiang Qi". one.
Fang Tianmu discovered the clues. The creatures bred by "Jiang Qi" are not perfect. At least in the current era of rules, many of them simply do not meet the conditions for their survival, and most of the creatures are Incomplete, the silhouette of a person flashing inside does not look like a person today, but more like a person in the process of evolution. It is exploring - the Creator is exploring, what kind of living beings can survive? On this basis, as many types as possible are differentiated. Beasts and humans seem to be the two most basic ones. Could it be that the creatures of all eras are differentiated from these two types?
Everything is just speculation. The era of human civilization is the earliest era that Fang Tianmu has come into contact with so far, and the energy of Lizhijie is earlier than Penglaijie. Is this the earliest legendary "Six Realms Era"? (First proposed by the swordsman Ge Yuan)
"Xiaojiang," Xue Zhongqiao asked, "you said Xiaobai met you here? How did you get here?"
Xiao Jiang replied: "I am originally from here. Xiao Bai... said that he had a dream and came here."
Xiao Jiang led everyone on the "windmill" going back, jumped off between "Changgu" and "Danxing", and walked towards the depths. This road has no beginning or end. When the three of them stepped on it, they were completely unaware of when the scenery around them appeared. It looked like a tall forest growing on the hillside. The trees were as tall and thin as bamboos, but they had There are old bark and dense green branches and leaves, but what keeps falling in the sky are autumn yellow leaves that look like flying knives coming from nowhere.
Xue Zhongqiao stretched out her hand and caught a yellow leaf, but of course it was not a leaf. It hit her palm and bloomed into sparks like an iron flower.
After walking for nearly half an hour, the scene around him still remained unchanged. Fang Tianmu couldn't help but stop, knowing that this was not an illusion. He wanted to fly to a higher place, but Xiao Jiang held him back and said, "The road here cannot be changed easily. If you want to walk, just walk. If you want to fly, keep flying. If you fly while walking, you won’t be able to find us.”
"Oh" Fang Tianmu gave up the idea and continued to follow Xiao Jiang for a stick of incense. Finally, they arrived at their destination.
Still in the woods on this hillside, a stove bottom made of loess was waiting quietly. It was only two feet high and four feet wide, no bigger than a chair. There were piles of charcoal that had been burned for countless years.
Zhou Xiqin asked: "Xiao Jiang, is this the place where you and Xiaobai cooked?"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jiang said: "No, this thing existed here before Xiao Bai and I appeared. The first time I saw Xiao Bai, it was by this fire."
Fang Tianmu asked: "Why are you from here?"
Xiao Jiang was startled and recalled: "I am from here. Xiao Bai told me. The first person I saw when I opened my eyes was Xiao Bai, right next to this fire."
Fang Tianmu looked at the bottom of the stove thoughtfully, and suddenly realized something. He immediately turned around and ran under the tree, slashed out with a knife, grabbed a piece of wood and came to the bottom of the stove. He noticed that a considerable number of "energy knots" were still active in the charcoal that had been stored for countless years. He gently placed the wood next to the charcoal. Sure enough, it didn't take long for the "energy knots" in the charcoal to affect the wood block. The energy in it is transferred in the form of "energy knot", and the way it is displayed is "flame".
The block of wood ignited. It was not an ordinary flame. Fang Tianmu had never seen such an "energy knot" before. It was changing, constantly changing, so the flames were also changing, becoming like fire but not fire, like thunder. Fire, fire like wind, fire like living beings, it's so strange, this is not evolution, this is like screening. The color of the flame also ranges from burnt yellow to blood red, to dark blue and ice white. It is one of the nine fires in the world.
Fang Tianmu grabbed the firewood and threw it towards the woods. In an instant, the woods were ignited, and there were blazing flames in one breath. No one felt the heat or choking. The woods were burning, but it didn't mean anything. On the ground, or burning in the human sense, it seemed that the leaves were covered with a layer of "magic". The technique looked like flames, or it was the original flame. After a while, everyone finally felt the heat. There were dozens of people. Different forms of "energy knots" have become flames, and the nine fires in the world that exist in the era of rules are among them.
Fang Tianmu didn't react at this time, and he would definitely regret it in the future, because if he took this opportunity to seize the "energy knot" of the top three fires in the world and bring it back to the human world, it would be of great use.
The ground was frozen, and Fang Tianmu felt a huge fighting spirit. There was a kind of fire in the forest. It continued to burst out with the will to fight. It was provoking and even declaring war. It destroyed dozens of other fires in an instant, leaving only The other thirteen flames are still burning, and these fourteen flames have a temperature, much like the flames that exist in the world.
Fang Tianmu whispered: "In addition to the nine fires in the world, there are other forms of flames." He realized that the person accompanying Xiao Jiang this time should not be him, but Mu Ziyun. If Mu Ziyun was here, This will be an unimaginable creation.
He tried his best to memorize the "energy knots" of different flames, but before he could finish memorizing the first one, the flame disappeared. When he turned around, there was a piece of wood that was about to burn out across the bottom of the stove, and Xiaojiang picked up another piece and put it away. Entering, she was looking at the flames in trance.
Neither Zhou Xiqin nor Xue Zhongqiao recovered from the sea of fire just now. Both of them were so shocked that they broke into cold sweats. Looking at the lush woods and the "autumn leaves" falling, it was as if nothing had happened.
Fang Tianmu sat next to Xiao Jiang and asked, "Xiao Jiang, you are not a human being, what are you?"
Xiaojiang sat quietly and never said a word again. No matter who spoke to her, there was no response. The three of them looked at each other and sat next to each other, waiting for several hours.
The two women couldn't wait any longer and told Fang Tianmu that they wanted to ride on the "windmill" again to see the scenery. After Fang Tianmu hesitated for a moment, he nodded. After some instructions, Zhou Xiqin and Xue Zhongqiao I walked back the way I came.
Sitting next to Xiao Jiang, he kept thinking about those two people, always making sure that their energy was within his range of perception. I don’t know how long it took, but the sky here suddenly turned dark at an extremely fast speed. Fang Tianmu immediately He stood up, and at this moment, a ball of fire ignited in the bottom of the stove.
The charcoal that had been lying around for countless years began to sparkle again.
Fang Tianmu still wanted to find those two people, but Xiao Jiang suddenly sighed and said quietly: "Xiao Bai and I met at this time. The first thing I saw was his face."
After Fang Tianmu hesitated, he sat down. After seven or eight breaths, Xiao Jiang said again: "I know Xiaobai is dead, but I just can't remember how he died. It's strange. There are all happy things in my mind." Memory, even when he died, I was obviously sad, but because I didn’t remember, I couldn’t feel sad anymore. It seemed that I had forgotten a lot of things. I came back here not to find him here, but to remember myself. When did you forget him?"
Fang Tianmu realized that the innocent girl in front of him might not be as inexperienced as he thought. She had also grown up in her happy memories.
"Then..." Fang Tianmu asked, "Since when did you forget about him."
Xiao Jiang turned his head, looked at Fang Tianmu, and said, "The bank of Changting Lake is the place where he died."
Fang Tianmu was very surprised. Xiao Jiang smiled and said: "Fool, no matter what the circumstances are, the time you spend with Xiao Bai, whether you suffer or suffer, is always happy. Only when he disappears or dies, will I be happy?" I will lose my happiness, and all I forget is the memory after he died or disappeared in the Shen clan."
"Well" Fang Tianmu realized that he had been deceived by this little girl's innocent appearance. This guy actually remembered everything! But why is she a mortal?
"Then...your last memory is..."
Xiao Jiang looked at the flames with a cold face and said: "A fire broke out in the clan. They rushed over to kill us, killing us for no reason."
Fang Tianmu whispered carefully: "It's Li Buhuan."
"Brother Buhuan, he...he disappeared. I don't know where he went. Fortunately, he was not there at the time, but how did Xiaobai die later? Why can't I remember anything."
Fang Tianmu sighed. Xiaojiang forgot who harmed them. At this time, the question popped up in his mind again. He asked: "Xiaojiang, how was the fire in the forbidden land put out a thousand years ago?" ."
"A thousand years ago?"
"The matter between you and Chen Xubai happened a thousand years ago. Don't worry about it for now. Tell me how the fire in your memory was put out!"
"Fire? Oh..." Xiaobai did not forget and said: "Only a dozen houses were burned, but there were no casualties and they were put out quickly."
"Huh?" Fang Tianmu didn't understand and asked her what she meant.
Xiao Jiang didn't understand what Fang Tianmu wanted to ask. Fang Tianmu explained that in a place like a forbidden area, once an open fire appears, a large number of fire arts in the forbidden area will be assimilated. In those days, the Shen family put out fires and saved three people. At this time, they all practiced fire arts, so one can imagine how difficult it was to extinguish the fire.
Xiao Jiang was stunned and said: "Where is the forbidden area? Where can the Shen clan practice fire arts?"
Fang Tianmu was stunned, and immediately asked for confirmation: "Don't the Shen family practice fire arts?"
Xiao Jiang shook his head and said: "They have many ways of practicing, but they have all fallen behind because they have been hiding from the world for a long time. However, there are also masters, more than a dozen, but they are not related to fire."
Fang Tianmu frowned and even scratched his head, while Xiao Jiang said quietly: "Strange, why has it only been a thousand years? It seems that I and Xiaobai were besieged and killed by Changting Lake just yesterday. Let me tell you, No wonder the houses there have changed, and so have the people. I don’t dare to recognize them anymore, and all of a sudden they are practicing fire magic, and they are also practicing Xiaobai’s fire magic. How come it’s only been a thousand years... .”
"What did you say!" Fang Tianmu grabbed Xiao Jiang's shoulders and asked, "Whose fire technique is he practicing?"
"Um" Xiao Jiang pushed Fang Tianmu's hand away in pain, and while rubbing his shoulders, he said: "It's Xiao Bai's fire technique. Only Xiao Bai can use that kind of flame. He uses it very well, hehe , I also use it very well.”
Fang Tianmu sat quietly by the stove fire. The firelight shone on him, and his shadow was stretched thin. He was terrifyingly quiet, like an ice sculpture or a stone...
