Besides this large pit filled with flames, there are many doors, which are either open or closed. It is eerie and terrifying. Presumably many passages in Piaoling Meiyuan lead to this tunnel. Zhong Chunji was trembling slightly. Like ordinary women, she was afraid of the dark, and the darkness in this room was behind the half-open and half-closed door, and behind the bright and dancing flames. It was even more terrifying. Chi Yun focused on the chain bridge, “This bridge is too narrow. It seems to be specially made for barbecue.” Shen Langhun said lightly, “Not bad.”
The bridge in the flames is only an arm’s width, and can accommodate at most one person. The iron chains on both sides are crisscrossed, not for support, but to enhance the heat of the chains. If a person walks on the bridge, he will definitely suffer. The flaming chains were burning, and I was afraid that before I even took ten steps, my skin would be burned to pieces, or I would fall into the fire pit.
On the other side of the fire pit, there was a coffin quietly placed. It was made of crystal and was crystal clear. It faintly showed a light blue brilliance under the firelight.
“This coffin——” Zhong Chunji lost his voice, “Is this the blue ice coffin?” Chi Yun didn’t stop at all, and flew directly to the chain bridge. Before he could even fall on the chain, the first link to cross the moon was taken. , struck the red-hot iron rope with a “ding” sound, and was about to use the force to jump up, but the silver knife fell, and when it touched the iron rope, it suddenly softened, unable to use the force. Chi Yun’s body sank, but after all, he was extremely experienced in facing the enemy. He turned over and kicked the silver knife with a “pop” sound, taking advantage of the situation to return. However, the handle was heated by the moon and stuck to the iron rope. It doesn’t come anymore. In the blink of an eye, it gradually melts away.
“This iron rope is not an ordinary thing.” Shen Langhun looked coldly at the ice coffin on the other side, “It seems that many people died in the fire if they underestimated this iron rope. But this ice coffin must be It was put there in the past few days. He took Fang Zhou’s body from the husband’s house, knowing that you would definitely come after him and use it as bait to lure you into the fire pit.” Tang Lici returned Xiao Taohong to Zhong Chunji. The corners of his clothes were raised slightly in the scorching air and curled a little in the firelight. He stared intently at the blue ice coffin on the other side. For a moment, his eyes flashed with a look that seemed to be crying and laughing, “Even if it is a fire pit, I had no choice but to jump…” He murmured to himself, “He has always understood me very well. I just don’t understand… why you can understand me so well but can’t believe me… Yes, I have always gone too far. But…but I have always gone too far since I was a child. Is there anything I can’t do too much? You have always tolerated it. Why can’t you forgive me this time?” He looked at the ice coffin. “Brother… help me tell Ah Yan that I am not willful this time. Although I still went too far, but… I really want to save you…”
The other three people stood aside and watched Tang Lici talking to herself in front of the ice coffin. They didn’t know what they said and looked at each other. Zhong Chunji pulled Chi Yun’s sleeve and whispered, “Can he not go over? Then… that chain…” Chi Yun threw her away and said coldly, “If he wants to go over, can you Can you stop him?” Zhong Chunji said, “Then… he’s already dead, right? Even if he goes over here, there’s no way he can be saved, so why go over?” She grabbed Chi Yun’s sleeve again, “I think he’s dead. There will be more sinister mechanisms after passing the iron rope to stop him…” Chi Yun looked at her hand holding his sleeve coldly, “Let go!” Zhong Chunji let go in horror, she felt uneasy. If Tang Lici stepped on the iron rope, she would definitely encounter a danger more terrifying than a million soldiers in armor. However, she was soft-spoken and could not stop her. In panic, something in her arms shook slightly. She reached into her arms and held it tightly. That bottle of potion.
“Fire Chain Bridge, if you practice the cold energy and use the method of freezing water in a bowl, you may be able to temporarily resist this high heat.” Shen Langhun muttered, “Or, there is something that can resist the flames below. Build another bridge.” Tang Lici turned her back to Shen Langhun and seemed to turn a deaf ear. She moved towards the chain bridge. Shen Langhun had quick eyesight and pressed the button, “Wait a minute! Don’t be impulsive…” Before he could finish his sentence, Tang Lici struck out like lightning and slapped his wrist back with a “clack” sound. Shen Langhun threw away his hand and retreated quickly. The pain was severe, and Tang Lizi removed his wrist joints by just a hair. In an instant, he understood that if the ice coffin was placed next to the fire pit, no matter what kind of ice coffin it was, it would definitely melt, so… Tang Lizi He lost his calmness, but Tang Lici was not calm in the first place. He always acted with a smile and arrogance, but never calmness! Looking up, he saw Tang Lici jumping onto the bridge and stepping on the blazing red iron rope. As he fell, the iron rope swayed slightly, and his clothes and hair bun immediately caught fire. Zhong Chunji covered his mouth and exclaimed, his face pale, Chi Yun’s figure spun, Shen Langhun grabbed him, his eyes flashed, “Even if you can get on the bridge, what can you do? Come down!”
As she spoke, Tang Lici’s whole body was on fire, and she ran across the chain bridge several times and reached the other side.
On the other side, there were traces of water on the ground, which did not dry up even under the blazing flames. The flames jumped at the corners of his clothes. Because the man had not been in the fire for a long time, the fire on his clothes slowed down, but did not go out. It was still burning quietly. Tang Lizi looked at the ice coffin underground, motionless.
It was a coffin made of solid ice, crystal clear and faintly glowing with blue light, but… beside the high temperature of the fire pit, it had melted to only a very thin layer, and there were traces of water all over the floor. From this. The water formed by this coffin is different from ordinary water. It is extremely difficult to evaporate and is very viscous.
“Fox!”
“Tang Li Ci!”
“Master Tang!”
A misty voice came from the other side, the voice was anxious, and Chi Yun’s voice was especially loud, “You are looking for death! Why don’t you put out the fire! The madman named Tang!”
There is… nothing in the blue ice coffin.
“Ha…haha…” Tang Lici laughed in a low voice, her eyes, which had always been complicated, now clearly filled with enthusiasm, joy, anger and self-appreciation, “As expected -“
This blue ice coffin that melted next to the fire was not the one used by Tang Lici to place Fang Zhou’s body, but a fake coffin imitated from other materials. Fang Zhou was naturally not in the coffin, and the flames were burning on his shoulders and sleeves. Tang Lici fluttered her robes, and the flames spreading around her body were extinguished. Even Chi Yun and the three of them on the other side could smell the smell of burning flesh. Zhong Chunji was covered in cold sweat and her face was pale. She held the lapel of her chest tightly with her right hand. She didn’t understand the so-called close friends and brotherhood, and she didn’t understand why a living person would go through fire and water for a dead person. But she knew that if this continued, Tang Li would Ci will definitely be killed by the various mechanisms set up against him. Is it worth it for a corpse that cannot be resurrected? Is it worth it?
“Are you seriously injured?” Chi Yun shouted from a distance, “Have you found anyone?” Shen Lang shouted loudly, “Be careful! Flame snake! Flame snake!” Zhong Chunji groaned, and his body was shaking. , staggering two steps back on the earth wall beside him, the flaming snake, a deadly bungara snake, its whole body was coated with poison, and its belly was buried with strong gunpowder. This kind of thing has always been heard only in martial arts anecdotes. As I said, I saw the flashing scales on the other side, and dozens of silver-colored silver snakes swam out from the earthen wall next to the fire pit and crawled straight towards Tang Lici, who was still covered in smoke.
There was a loud “thump”, dust suddenly rose on the other side, water splashed, and firelight spread, and the gas of gunpowder spread all over the place, just like a ball of flames exploded, and then the smoke and flames dissipated. The three people’s eyes widened, and they saw a big hole opened up in the earthen wall on the other side. Dozens of flaming snakes disappeared. Tang Lici’s hands were dripping with blood, covered with small wounds bitten by poisonous snakes, and the skulls of the poisonous snakes were crushed. Throwing it into the fire pit, even though he struck like lightning, one of the flaming snakes still exploded with its tentacles, and he threw it into the earth wall and opened a big hole. As the explosion violently shook the earthen wall, an iron gate above the head suddenly fell down. There were six sharp thatch blades under it, which crashed into the ground with a clanging sound. The slightest difference could not injure anyone. Tang Lici suddenly looked back. His body was covered in blood and his hair was disheveled. His hands were covered with venomous snake fangs. Behind the prison gate, only a pair of eyes appeared with brilliance, like a **** beast. But when he saw him slightly raising his head, biting his lips, he pursed his lips. With a slight smile on her lips, she said softly to the other side, “Little Taohong.”
Zhong Chunji stayed on the spot. Chi Yun snatched the little peach red in her hand and threw it, but when the blade passed through the air, there was a “pop” sound and Tang Lici raised his hand to catch it. In mid-air, Xiao Taohong’s sharp pink light suddenly appeared in a circle, the iron gate collapsed suddenly, and she fell into the fire pit. Tang Lici succeeded with one stroke and stopped staying. Her body shape was like a goose flying over the floating clouds, stepping through the still hot and terrifying fire pit. The chain bridge returned to the three of them as if nothing had happened.
Shen Langhun’s shots were like lightning, and he clicked on six acupuncture points on his hands in an instant. With a “dang” sound, the little peach red fell to the ground. Chi Yun grabbed Tang Lici’s hand and was shocked to see a pair of originally snow-white and slender palms. There were blisters all over the place, and there were wounds all over the back of the hands. Some of the wounds still had venomous snake fangs, they were slightly bruised, and they were bleeding everywhere. It was terrible to see. “You -” He didn’t know what to say for a moment. Anger surged in his chest, but when it came to his heart, it was filled with bitterness, “You’re crazy.”
Except for her hands and shoulders, Tang Lici’s clothes were burned in many places and suffered fire injuries all over, especially her feet and legs. However, although his face was blackened by the fire, it was unscathed. Zhong Chunji was dumbfounded, tears burst out of her eyes and fell down her cheeks. She covered her face… Shen Langhun kept holding his hands and took out the golden sore powder from his arms and applied it on his clothes and wounds, but the poisonous wounds on his hands were… It was not something he could cure. “Do you feel any discomfort?” he asked in a deep voice.
Tang Lici raised his hands, “It doesn’t matter.” Chi Yun slightly opened his clothes at the collar, only to see that the skin under the clothes was red and swollen, covered with burns. “He was bitten by dozens of extremely venomous flame snakes. You actually said it doesn’t matter? What do you think you are? Do you think you are a monster that is omnipotent and invincible?” Tang Lici said softly, “Even the Orang Gui Jiuxin Pill can’t kill me, just a silver snake. What’s the matter? Don’t be afraid, there are flesh wounds on your hands.”
“My whole body is covered with fire wounds. If there is no right medicine, I’m afraid the consequences will be disastrous.” Shen Langhun said lightly, “Just leave now, we can’t look for it anymore.” Chi Yun was about to speak, Tang Lici Looking at himself covered in blood, his eyes moved slightly, and he said calmly, “That’s okay…but before leaving, let me rest here for a while. Chi Yun went to bring some clothes in.” They each carried packages on their backs and entered the house. I had left it outside the door to prevent it from hindering my movements, and I didn’t take it with me.
“I’ll be back soon.” Chi Yun responded and left. Tang Lici sat down on the spot, closed her eyes and adjusted her breath, using her energy to force out the poison. Zhong Chunji stood aside and looked at him blankly. Xiao Taohong fell aside and she didn’t pick it up, just looking at Tang Lici intently. Shen Langhun took out a very small silver knife from his arms, slowly cut open the snake wound on Tang Lici’s hand, took out the fangs, squeezed out the poisonous blood, and after a brief count, there were twenty-eight pieces left on his hands. If the tooth marks were replaced by another person, I’m afraid he would have died long ago.
“Is there no Fang Zhou on the other side?” He asked calmly while healing him. Tang Lici looked at the other side and smiled softly, “No.” After a pause, Shen Langhun said, “Are you hurt on your body?” Tang Lici moved her fingers and briefly brushed her hair, and the thick blood flowed smoothly. His hair fell down and dripped down his scar-covered chest, “Um…could it be that Shen Langhun has never been injured more seriously than a mere fire?” Shen Langhun was startled, and then smiled faintly, “As Uncle Qianguo, you have never been injured in this life. How can he be compared with Shen Langhun if he doesn’t go to the world?” Tang Lici didn’t pay much attention to the wounds all over his body. He looked at the flames in the fire pit and said, “Fire and snake bites are nothing… I…” His voice was loud. However, he stopped talking and changed his words, “Fang Zhou practiced the Book of Rebirth and exchanged the exercises with me. The pain of exchanging exercises is really painful.”
“Young Master Tang.” Zhong Chunji asked in a low voice, “You…what kind of person were you when you were young, before you became Qian Guojiu?” Three sounds of Fang Zhou changed the merit for Tang Li. She had known about Ci for a long time, but that person said that Tang Li Ci was ruthless and unreasonable, trading the lives of his friends for peerless martial arts. If he was really such a person, why would he come all the way here and suffer from the poisonous snakes of the agency, insisting on finding him? Fang Zhou’s body? Of course he is not the treacherous villain that person said, but…but…but the problem is not that he is ruthless and unrighteous, but that he values love and justice – he values love and justice so much that it almost kills him. Myself…what should I do, what should I do?
Tang Lici raised his eyes and glanced at her, “In the past? When you were young?” He smiled slightly, “I was very rich when I was young, and I am still rich today.” Zhong Chunji was stunned, she had thought about it all, I never imagined that he would say this – the meaning was that he had no intention of discussing the past with her. There was no need to explain to her what he wanted to do, let alone discuss it with her. She only had to follow him. As long as he is behind him, even if he jumps into the fire pit to die, it has nothing to do with her.
How can a man refuse so cruelly when he refuses to care? She smiled miserably and said, “I was very rich when I was young.” She spoke frankly, arrogantly, and without any regard for others…
At this moment, Chi Yun came back with a gray robe. Tang Lici put the gray robe over her clothes, but had no intention of standing up. She breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the broken fake coffin on the other side. , “Do you think if I leave like this, will he blame me in the future…”
“He is already dead. If there is really a ghost in the world, he should see you working so hard for him, so he won’t blame you.” Chi Yun rarely said a few words of comfort, but it didn’t sound very credible. Shen Langhun frowned, “What do you want?”
“I want to spend the night here. Even if I can’t find Fang Zhou’s body, it will be an apology to myself.” Tang Lici said softly, “Can I stay with him for the night?” She spoke in a low voice. , does this softness like ashes represent a realization of disillusionment?
Chi Yun and Shen Langhun looked at each other. Zhong Chunji stood aside motionless with a dull expression. Shen Langhun pondered for a moment, “I’ll go to the valley outside to find some herbs.” Chi Yun glared at Tang Lizi. , unexpectedly sighed for the first time, “I really can’t do anything to you. It’s getting dark anyway. You surnamed Shen, you go find some medicine and catch some game when you come back. You’ll spend the night overnight. You can’t save on food and drink.”
This night was spent in silence with the bonfire. Tang Lici did not speak. He was seriously injured, so it was not surprising that he did not speak, but everyone knew that he did not want to speak. Tang Lici didn’t speak, and Chi Yun fell to the ground and fell asleep. No one knew that he was dissatisfied with Tang Lici’s death. Shen Langhun flicked the bonfire with a branch, but he looked at Zhong Chunji from the corner of his eye, his eyes were indifferent, and he didn’t know what he was thinking. Zhong Chunji stared at Tang Lici’s back intently and said nothing the whole night.
After a long time, Chi Yun snored, and Zhong Chunji closed his eyes and fell asleep. Shen Langhun listened quietly to the silence around him, crossed his legs and adjusted his breath to replace sleep. After a while, he had entered a state of forgetfulness. Just when the three of them fell asleep, Tang Lici opened her eyes, stood up slowly, and with a slightly swaying figure, turned and walked towards the doors next to the fire pit, disappearing silently into the darkness behind the doors.
After Tang Li resigned, Zhong Chunji opened his eyes, tears slowly falling from his eyes.
Sure enough…he didn’t give up.
He would never leave until he found what he was looking for.
Is a friend’s corpse really so important? That it doesn’t matter even if another corpse is lost? You…do you know how uncomfortable and painful it is to see you like this, me…our hearts? You are pursuing something that is impossible to find. If you find his body, will you feel better? Will he really do it? Resurrection? In fact, in your heart, you may feel more guilty than anyone else about Fang Zhou’s death, but no one understands it, or even you yourself don’t understand it.
And it is clear that the road to find him is littered with countless hidden weapons, poisons and **** blades. How can a person as smart and calculating as you not know this? I can’t let you go on like this. They let you do whatever you want. That’s because they think they understand your brotherhood, but I… I only want your life, not your righteousness.
Zhong Chunji put her hand into her arms, and the bottle of potion in her arms suddenly became extremely cold, as if it had a sharp edge inside. She grabbed the bottle of potion tightly, and for the first time in her life, she was floating in a daze. With a stark and clear decision.
The night gradually passed, and Zhong Chunji sat quietly by the fire, waiting quietly.
