Southern Xinjiang
Green, blue light streaked across the sky. After a night's rest, Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi continued to set off in the direction of Fenxiang Valley. Near dusk, they landed in a small forest more than a hundred miles away from Fenxiang Valley. Zhang Xiaofan raised his head After looking at it, he said: "It's still early now, let's wait until night and then quietly sneak into the valley to investigate."
Xiao Hui seemed to hear something in the woods. He blinked with three eyes and hurriedly jumped off Zhang Xiaofan's shoulders. He ran into the woods with a "squeak". The two of them found a flat piece of grass and sat down. He glanced at Lu Xueqi unconsciously, and Lu Xueqi also turned her head and stared at him. At this moment, there seemed to be a kind of connection and a tacit understanding that made the two bodies tightly and dependent on each other. After a while, there was a strange noise in the forest, and the two of them ran away after hearing it. I saw Xiao Hui holding a hare in one hand and two pheasants in the other hand.
Xiao Hui put down the hare and pheasant. He pointed at them with his paw. Then he pointed at himself and Lu Xueqi, Zhang Xiaofan said with a smile: "Okay, I know you are hungry, I will get it for you right away." Xiao Hui grinned there. He quickly climbed into Lu Xueqi's arms. He opened the wine bag and started drinking the wine.
Zhang Xiaofan first looked around for some dead branches and lit a fire. Then he carried the prey that Xiao Hui had caught to the waterside far away and washed and skinned it himself, and then packed it up in a moment. Return to the fire and sit down next to Lu Xueqi. He skillfully set it on the fire, slowly turned it, and started roasting it. After a moment, a strange aroma came out of the meat, spreading out in wisps.
A bonfire was lit in the dark forest. A ray of fire broke through the thick darkness. For a moment, the forest was silent. Except for Xiao Hui's cry and the occasional bird song, there was only the sound of grease dripping from the fire. After a while, the rabbits and pheasants were already shiny. Zhang Xiaofan took out some bottles and cans from his body, sprinkled them evenly, and said happily: "Okay, you can eat." He handed a chicken leg to Lu Xueqi. .
Strangely, Lu Xueqi didn't respond, and Zhang Xiaofan was surprised. What's wrong with her. He called out with some worry: "Xue Qi?" Unexpectedly, Lu Xueqi didn't seem to hear, making Zhang Xiaofan even more anxious. Called several times. Lu Xueqi finally came back to her senses. Staring at Zhang Xiaofan quietly. This man gave himself immense happiness. for him. You can ignore everything.
Zhang Xiaofan saw Lu Xueqi like this. She asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with you?" "I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed that you were pierced by a strange beam of light from your chest and died." Lu Xueqi said uneasily. On top of that appearance. Gradually a hint of bitterness emerged. Seeing that Lu Xueqi was so distracted, Zhang Xiaofan put his arm around Lu Xueqi's delicate waist and hugged her into his arms, saying: "Fool, it's just a dream. And with my current skills, there are a few in the world who are my opponents." , let alone one that can kill me."
Lu Xueqi leaned her head further into that steady embrace. Only here. Only then can you give yourself a sense of security. Xiao Fan is right. With his current behavior, few are his opponents. Maybe he really thinks too much. In my heart, I was thinking the same thing. Then he started eating slowly. The night falls low, and the moonlight shines down like water. Zhang Xiaofan said: "It's getting dark, let's go." Lu Xueqi nodded, and the two of them turned into light and flew towards Incense Valley.
Incense Valley
Arriving at Fenxiang Valley, Zhang Xiaofan frowned, and his expression instantly became solemn. He felt a faint ferocious aura coming from deep in the air. The two felt that Fenxiang Valley no longer had the justice of the past. Instead, there was evil energy that she had never seen before, as well as the resentment of Yin spirits. Lu Xueqi's expression changed, and she obviously felt an abnormal aura. Her heart began to agitate. She turned her head and saw Zhang Xiaofan's face was solemn. She couldn't help but ask. : "Xiaofan, is this feeling..."
Zhang Xiaofan thought for a moment and said: "Yes, it seems to be coming from the Xuanhuo Altar. Let's go in and have a look." There was silence in the depths of Fenxiang Valley, and darkness shrouded it like a shady curtain. It was unknown how many secrets were hidden. But on the way to sneak in quietly, both of them saw the frightened expressions on the faces of every disciple of Fenxiang Valley. Along the way, there were no alarm bells caused by gray dolphins. Zhang Xiaofan wondered in his heart, "What happened last time?" At that time, it was almost impossible to move here, so why did it go so smoothly this time?"
When they arrived in front of the Xuanhuo Altar, the sky was suddenly covered with clouds, there was no light, and a strong and extremely uncomfortable feeling penetrated their hearts. The flowers, plants, trees, green bamboos and winter plums that were originally planted on both sides were all dead. Xiao Hui held Zhang Xiaofan's clothes tightly with his hands. His face was distorted and his eyes were closed, and he seemed to be in pain. For some reason, he had just entered the valley. There was something wrong with Xiao Hui at the beginning. Now it seems that his body seems to be suffering from some great pain.
Lu Xueqi stroked Xiao Hui gently and looked at it carefully. She felt that its body was shaking slightly, and it was obviously trying its best to resist the unknown pain. Lu Xueqi whispered: "What's wrong, Xiao Hui?" Xiao Hui tilted his head and slowly opened his eyes. A golden light with a hint of dark red, like a strange will-o'-the-wisp in the night, or even more like a strange devil's eye under the Nine Netherworld, appeared before her eyes. Lu Xueqi exclaimed: "Xiao Fan, Xiao Hui..." Zhang Xiaofan replied: "It must be something inside that made Xiao Hui react like this."
Xuanhuotan
As soon as the two entered the Xuanhuo Altar, they were hit by the smell of blood and heat. The heat in the air suddenly became several times higher. At the same time, they also felt upset and there was a faint sweat on their foreheads. The two of them didn't have the mind to care about so much, and slowly walked up the steps on the left side of the Xuanhuo Altar. At this moment, the heat around them seemed to have increased a lot, as if what they were stepping on was not stone steps, but real burning objects. The flame is general. Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt a cold feeling coming from his back.
Zhang Xiaofan pulled out the Soul-Eating Bead from his waist, and felt a stream of cold air spread throughout his body. At some point, the Blood-Eating Bead on the Soul-Eating Bead actually emitted a faint blue light with a hint of blood. Lu Xueqi couldn't help but hold Zhang Xiaofan's hand tightly. He took a deep breath and continued to walk upward slowly. The surrounding railings and stone walls are all plain and without any carvings, which makes them particularly simple. Walking on it, even the wind blowing became extremely hot. Xiao Hui lay on Gui Li's shoulder, his eyes rolling around, and he looked around cautiously.
Red stones of the same material were cut into huge equal stones, each of which was as tall as half a person, and were piled up to form a magnificent palace. Walking closer, in the hot air, Zhang Xiaofan saw that the stones were so tightly connected that the gaps in the middle looked like they couldn't even insert a blade. It is really unimaginable how the founder of Fenxiang Valley created such a marvelous palace.
From the perspective of Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi, what appeared in front of them was not a palace at all, but a huge burning flame. Moreover, the flame was still so huge that it seemed as if it was about to collapse and engulf itself. At this moment, a tall wooden door appeared in front of them. Lu Xueqi discovered that although this door was painted with red paint, it was still different from the surrounding stone walls. It was just a wooden door. Thinking about it, if it is an extremely heavy stone gate, it must be very troublesome!
The two stood in front of the door for a while, but did not open the door immediately. Instead, they turned around and looked behind. The entire Xuanhuo Altar was silent except for the hot air. The next moment, "Squeak!" He pushed open the door. The moment they opened the door, a stronger smell of blood rushed straight in. They found themselves on a platform. The red light emitted from below painted the entire room red. Lu Xueqi curiously went down. Look, the sight in front of her shocked her. There was actually a lot of bright red blood underneath, bubbling and rolling.
