The inside of the city was already surrounded by raging flames, but there was still a white space outside the city. It was entirely up to Le Sheng Liu Xuzhi and his people to forcibly suppress the fire with a lot of spiritual power. The monks went back and forth with their swords, picking up the people trapped in the city and placing them in temporary tents. Everyone was in a panic to find their lost relatives and children, crying loudly, and chaos.
"Where's my girl, who saw my girl!" A woman with disheveled hair cried out in despair, "Nah! Mother is here, nah!"
Suddenly a loud cry came from far and near: "Mother! Mother!"
As soon as the woman turned her head, she felt like a treasure, crying and hugging the lost little girl. The little girl was so frightened that she kept shaking violently and calling her mother, and then she turned around to find someone, "Big brother rescued me! Thank you big brother!"
The woman looked around in gratitude, but couldn't see any sign of her big brother: "Where? Where is the benefactor who rescued you?"
"He was wearing black clothes, he was still there just now!" The little girl said in a milky voice, "Big brother—"
Ying Kai stood quietly not far away, looking at the reunited mother and daughter.
After a while, he lowered his eyes and disappeared into the crowd.
There are hurried victims everywhere, with anxious or desperate faces in their eyes. Ying Kai shuttled through the crowd like a ghost, listening to the endless cries in his ears, his mind went blank.
Suddenly there was a sharp cry not far away, and I saw a middle-aged man kneeling on the ground and kowtow: "My mother is still inside, please save my mother! She is in the yard at the top of Wutong Lane in the south of the city. She's already eighty! She can't escape by herself!"
However, several young monks who were kowtowed by him couldn't keep back, and someone said: "The south of the city has been blocked by fire, and we can't get in!"
"Accumulate virtue! Please accumulate virtue! You can fly, and you can definitely save my mother!"
Several young disciples were about to cry: "No, the fire is too big! We, Yujian, can't rush in!"
The man turned a deaf ear and rushed up to hug someone's thigh: "I beg you, I'm just a mother! You can't see death without saving me—"
There was a lot of discussion among the onlookers, Ying Kai stopped and his pupils shrank slightly.
I saw a young girl dressed as a disciple of Le Sheng couldn't bear it after all, she gritted her teeth and said, "I-I'll try it! I'm light and fast, maybe there's still time!"
The man immediately burst into tears and burst into tears, full of the bodhisattva's screams, but the monks next to him immediately stopped him in shock: "Junior sister absolutely must!" "The south of the city was sealed by fire, you know?!" "There is no way to save it! You will die in it!"
"Bullshit, you are all nonsense! You can't help you if you see death!" The man was dizzy, he kept pushing the monks, and knelt down to kowtow to the girl: "You are different from them, you are a bodhisattva! I beg you! , please!!" The rest of the monks dragged the girl and didn't let go: "You must never go!" "Do you want to die in the fire!"
…
There were a lot of people around, and the clamorous discussions shook the sky, but Ying Kai closed his eyes, as if he had fallen into an absurd, chaotic, never-ending dream.
"It's so pitiful, the man has gold under his knees..." "I can't say that, the girl is not responsible for saving the old lady for him!" "That's right! What if a good girl dies in the fire?" "Paradox That's not your mother, you can speak slander!"…
"Aren't you all virtuous!!" At this time, the men in the crowd were already going crazy, holding on to the girl's skirt and roaring at the other monks, "Aren't you going to become immortals and become gods? , why don't you see death! You are not as good as pigs and dogs!!"
The surrounding discussion suddenly exploded, the girl faced everyone's eyes, her face flushed as the two sides pulled, and she cried to her brothers and sisters in despair: "Let me go! Let me go!! I--"
Suddenly, a spiritual force from the crowd hit her, and the girl was forcibly silenced.
A cultivator exclaimed in shock, "The method of immobilization?!"
"Don't go." A voice resounded in the girl's ears, with indescribable exhaustion and self-deprecation, and said, "They are not worth it."
The girl suddenly opened her eyes.
Immediately afterwards, in the hustle and bustle of the crowd, a black-robed figure rose up with a sword from its back, and swept away in the direction of the south of the city under everyone's astonished eyes!
Immediately amazed: "Someone is really going to save!" "Don't die!"…
The man reacted abruptly, chased after a few steps with ecstasy, and knelt down and kowtowed again with a plop: "God! Great kindness and great virtue can't be repaid! You must be a living god!!"
However, the black-robed figure didn't turn his head, didn't even glance at the man, as if the grateful tears, anxious gaze, and boiling discussions had nothing to do with him.
He passed the world so indifferently and disappeared into the raging flames.
The south of the city has indeed been blocked by a wall of fire. Although there is still no open fire in the streets and alleys, the loud crackling sound of burning in the distance is constantly approaching. Other than that, there is no sound of people. The streets full of gunpowder smoke are empty, and the people have already fled.
Ying Kai landed in front of a residential house at the end of the alley, stretched out his hand and pushed gently, squeak-
The rattan fence door opened, and a small and dilapidated house appeared in front of him. An old woman was sitting hunched under the window, looking up at Misheng.
Ying Kai stopped.
He thought that the man's 80-year-old mother was also crying and crying for help at home. Who knew that the old woman had moved a small twig and sat in the courtyard. The coarse clothes were patched with a few patches. They were very clean and tidy. Peeled the beans in two pots.
"Young man, are you... a Daoist?" The old woman couldn't help widening her wrinkled eyes.
Ying Kai opened her mouth to meet her surprised gaze, but the word "yes" didn't come out immediately.
——He was going to say that your son asked me to save you, but he closed his mouth for some reason, looking at her without saying a word.
The old lady didn't understand what he meant, and said tremblingly: "The fire is about to burn here! Why don't you run? If you don't run, you won't be able to walk away!"
"… "
Ying Kai suddenly moved in his heart, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
When the old woman heard this, she became anxious, got up and turned into the house. She brought out another small tumbler and put it in the courtyard. She forced Ying Kai to sit opposite her, looked at him with concern and asked, "Are you hungry? "
Ying Kai's eyes fell on the half-peeled beans on the ground, and instead of answering, he asked, "Old man, why didn't you run for your life? Didn't the monks from Yanchuntai come to the south of the city to save people?"
The old woman said with a heavy tone, "Bong loose, fetching the beans and peeling them, and saying, "I've been here before! I heard it all over the house, flew to and flew back to pick up people out of the city! But I'm so old, and the young people in this street can't be saved, so what am I going to join in the fun? I just want to wait for those women and children to escape and talk about it! Waiting and waiting, I didn't see those little Daoists and Daoists flying back again. I think it's probably because the fire has been completely burned, and they can't fly in! "
She put a handful of peeled beans into another pot, and sighed: "I just thought, don't come back again, it only takes half a quarter of an hour for the fire to burn, don't try to save me. Damn old lady, let the little Daoist and the little Daoist girls go in. I heard the daughter-in-law of the old Litou next door say before leaving that I saw my son's family being rescued by a few little Daoists from the store - I am here. What else is there to worry about!"
Ying Kai was silent for a long time, grabbed a handful of beans, and slowly peeled them up.
The two sat facing each other and peeled green beans, and the old woman rambled: "I don't have anything to do, so I just want to cook a meal before I leave - I can't go on the road hungry, and I have to be a full-fledged ghost. I don't have anything to eat at home, so I'll cook and eat the remaining beans after thinking about it!"
Ying Kai peeled out a bean and put it in a clean basin, and asked in a low voice, "Don't you want to live?"
"If you want to live, you can't drag others to die." The old woman sighed: "Man, when you are pregnant in October, the melons will fall to the ground; when the time comes, go clean. Follow this natural law, isn't it good to be calm and peaceful? ?"
After peeling the last bean, she wiped her hand on the apron, took the basin and walked into the house.
The crackling sound was getting louder and louder, and the smell of burning in the air was getting heavier. Ying Kai looked at the old woman's back and suddenly asked, "What if I could still live?"
The old woman was stunned, and turned her head in confusion.
In front of her, Ying Kai slowly pulled out Dingshanhai.
Dingshanhai is too conspicuous, so he performed a technique before, and the monks and mortals in Suicheng could not notice the existence of this sword. But now that he had drawn the sword himself, a cold light shone from the sword's edge, which reflected in the turbid eyes of the old lady.
"This sword can only carry one person in total." Ying Kai looked at the old woman calmly, slowly handed the hilt forward, and said, "As long as you take it away, it will naturally take you to the camp outside the city. Reunited with family and children."
The air froze for a moment, the old woman's trembling eyes fell on the sword, and her lips moved twice.
However, Ying Kai's pupils were extremely constricted, as if he had stopped breathing.
Immediately afterwards, the old woman suddenly turned around without warning, and walked into the house with small pieces quickly carrying the basin.
There was a clanging sound of pots and bowls, and the sound of boiling water. Ying Kai only waited for less than a moment when the curtain was raised, and the old woman hurried out again. She was holding a small bundle of broken flowers in her hand, which was still warm. She held up Ying Kai's hand and threw the bundle to him, and then used her old palms to hold Ying Kai's hand tightly. "Aren't you too hungry to walk? There's only a few beans left in the house. I'll cook them. Hurry up and eat and go!" She grabbed Ying Kai's shoulder, pushed him out of the yard, and said urgently. "Come on, you won't be able to fly out later!" Ying Kai staggered and was pushed and shoved out of the small courtyard by the old woman. At this time, there was a loud "Boom!" Go high up in the sky and move here quickly!
"Let's go! Don't worry about it!" The old woman waved her hands out eagerly: "Young people must be well! Let's go!"
The flames have burned into the wall, and they are rapidly advancing towards this side, and the black smoke covers the sky and the sun.
Ying Kai stood in front of the dilapidated courtyard wall and closed his eyes tremblingly.
For the first time in 9,000 years, that gangrene-like cry and questioning rang out from my ears again, but was suppressed by a more anxious, louder, more real and clear cry——
"The flood is coming, how can you stand by?!"
"Come on, don't worry about it!"
"Don't you want to become an immortal and become a god, how can you not save the people of Limin?!"
"I won't be able to fly out later, let's go!"
"Do you know that the people kneeled and begged him for seven days, he just ascended for himself..."
boom! !
The black fire collapsed the courtyard wall, and the raging fire dragon came in the air. But at this moment, the figure of the old woman emerged from the black smoke. She shivered and held a basin of water. She did not know where the strength came from, so she forced Ying Kai to protect her behind her, and desperately poured the water against the sky-high fire wall!
——The spray like a man's arm blocking a car was suddenly stopped in mid-air.
The rising flames, the splashing sparks, the transpiring black smoke... all solidified at that moment, reflected in the panicked and anxious eyes of the old woman.
"Thank you." Ying Kai looked back at her, his eyes were slightly red: "I still can't reconcile with myself, but at least... I can reconcile with the world."
With a flick of his sleeves, the hurricane rose to the ground, and the unparalleled energy spread in a ring!
With this inconspicuous house as the center, the surrounding fire wall fell backward at the same time, was forcibly flattened in the roar, and went out with a bang.
Immediately afterwards, divine power burst forth, turning into thousands of bright arcs, rushing in all directions under the sky!
It reaches Daishan Mountain in the east, the capital city in the west, Yejinmen in the south, and Tianmenguan in the north... The huge circle of divine power continues to advance, destroying the city and pulling the village unstoppable. The black fire that is raging and burning everywhere will turn into smoke and go out as soon as it touches it. .
"Is this... is this a miracle?"
"The fire is out, the fire is out!"
"saved!!--"
The girls in the camp outside the city were still in tears, and the mother and daughter, who were hugging each other tightly, were stunned. The crowd who raised their heads stood still for a few breaths, and then burst into ecstatic shouts, which quickly spread across the land, and the wailing and cheering went straight to the sky!
All over the earth, millions of charred wreckages of organs were exposed to the sun, silently turning into powder, and vanishing without a trace when the wind blew.
Outside the small alley house, the old woman staggered back half a step, the small water basin in her hand fell to the ground with a bang, and asked tremblingly: "You are... Are you a living fairy?"
"I'm not." Ying Kai replied hoarsely, "I should have been a mortal."
He held Ding Shanhai in one hand, and still held the warm small cloth bag in the other hand. With trembling hands, he put it into his sleeve and smiled briefly: "Thank you for your beans, I will accept it."
The old woman opened her eyes.
The next moment, I saw silver light rising from the flat ground, Ying Kai Yujian rushed into the sky, and the majestic force made the old lady take a few steps back in shock.
Under the sky, a majestic sword light came from the sky, and it was Xu Shuangce who was galloping from afar!
--boom!
Dingshanhai came out of its sheath, and received the blow in a shocking way!
Coming to Suicheng from Yejinmen, across the sky from north to south, even a divine sword like Bai Taishou and Wu Naihe could not arrive in an instant. Xu Shuangce himself was thousands of miles away, and it was too late to make another sword at this moment.
Gong Wei's clear youthful voice penetrated with divine power, and shouted hoarsely: "Senior brother—"
Ying Kai's footsteps froze suddenly.
"… "
The God of Beiyuan looked deeply at the two familiar figures galloping at the end of the sea of clouds, and after a while, with a volume that only he could hear, he replied in a low voice, "Well, senior brother is here."
Then he finally gritted his teeth and forced himself to turn around, without turning his head, he rushed to the upper heaven, and passed through the dazzling gate of heaven behind the clouds!
The next moment, Ying Kai appeared in the northern wall of the upper heaven.
Just as he landed on the ground, a roar resounded through the three realms, and the burning platinum barrier enveloped the entire Beiyuan Temple from all sides, blocking this huge territory into a vast island, and all the shocking discussions and movements outside were caught. Completely isolated from the enchantment.
On the ninety-ninth wide steps, Ying Kai looked up at the magnificent temple that he was familiar with. After a while, he seemed to have finally made up his mind. His jawbone was clearly defined by the tightness of his jaw, and he reached out and pushed open the huge temple door.
boom-
Several rays of light shone from the door to the hall. Under the white jade seat in front, as expected, there was a young man standing. The corners of his robes and robes were embroidered with purple flowers on the other side. His white hands were carelessly supporting a blood sword. face.
It's the ghost prince.
"You put out the flames in the world?" He raised his sharp eyebrows and asked Ying Kai with a smile.
