The sea of ​​suffering is boundless, it is me who turns back

19.

In the Crystal Palace, Yan Yun, who was picking up shells with his head down, paused suddenly.

He looked at Qi Wu beside him: "Is...has it stopped?"

Affected by the volcanic eruption, the Undersea Dragon Palace has been shaking for two full days.

Qi Wu frowned, and put his hands on the cool floor tiles.

Yan Yun tugged at his armor bluffing: "Stop it, right! The volcano stopped erupting! Neg Xuejun and the others must have found out the reason!"

Qi Wu ignored him, stood up solemnly and greeted his subordinates: "The whole team comes out, follow me to the crater to see the situation."

Yan Yun also stood up, following behind Qi Wu's buttocks in good spirits, his face froze suddenly, his head was blindfolded and his eyes turned black, and he was about to fall to the side when the soles of his feet were tilted.

Qi Wu catches him quickly with his eyes and hands, his iron arm passes through his flexible waist, and a handful of warm and fragrant nephrite crashes into the cold armor.

Yan Yun covered his hands with broken shells, pressed his elbows to his eyes, and murmured in a low voice, "Ouch, it's getting violent."

Qi Wucai was almost pissed off by him, and complained: "You are a scholar who is useless."

"I'm happy." Yan Yun recovered after a while, "Mr. Huairou, take me with you."

Qi Wu slapped Yan Yun on the forehead, pushed him aside, and said coldly: "Take you to cause trouble for me?"

"How come! I'll help you!"

Qi Wu sneered, feeling that this person would be knocked out by the waves as soon as he went out.He resolutely said: "Stay here to clean up the Dragon Palace, don't run around, I have no time to take care of you."

After finishing speaking, he left without giving Yan Yun any chance to pester others.

Fu Ziqiu grabbed both of Gu Zhizhou's wrists, with a calm expression on his face, as if he was out of danger, he packed up all the emotions that were only exposed between life and death, and he returned to this cold body, Shaking his head, he said, "I'm fine."

Gu Zhizhou was taken aback by his attitude, and then realized that all the previous cooperation and protection were based on the word "have to".He thought he was the only one who was moody, and this was the second time he had taught Fu Ziqiu how to turn his face faster than turning the pages of a book.

The two of them had just come out of the water, their hair and clothes were soaked, Gu Zhizhou's whole body was reddened by the sea water, and his temperature was also high. In contrast, Fu Ziqiu's palms were still cold and his face was pale.

He moved his lips and wrestled his hand out: "Let me see, I can smell it."

Gu Zhizhou persuaded himself that he didn't want to entangle with Fu Ziqiu any more, but he did suffer for him just now, and with their current relationship that doesn't owe each other, he really feels uneasy.

He held Fu Ziqiu's wrist instead, and turned him sideways.Seeing this, I gasped.

The cliff of the mountain under the sea was burned for two days. Gu Zhizhou was hit by a stone on his shoulder before and a layer of skin was burned off, not to mention Fu Ziqiu's entire back was stuck on it.

The red dress that covered her body was scalded, and the black curled sides were left open.The flesh inside was scorched and rotten, and the snow-like back was ripped apart, bloody and bloody, it was simply too horrible to look at.

"You..." Gu Zhizhou's heart was stabbed hard, and he said with difficulty: "Doesn't it hurt?"

Fu Ziqiu pushed Gu Zhizhou back, not because of his amazing endurance, but because he really didn't feel pain, as if this kind of experience of being roasted by flames was not the first time, and it was not as uncomfortable as imagined, as if... as if he was used to it subconsciously. Even if it is a thousand times more violent, it can be endured.

"I'm really fine," he sighed, "The demon body has a strong recovery ability, you won't be able to see it if you blink again."

Fu Ziqiu didn't lie, unless he was wounded by a magic weapon or an expert like Gu Zhizhou, ordinary wounds would heal automatically in a short time.

Leaving the sea, the dry air is the best nutrient. The flesh and blood on his back returned to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye. Gu Zhizhou was dumbfounded, feeling so unfair. Why is the devil so much stronger than the gods?

When the fire dragon arrived at the destination and put them down, there was only a thin red mark left on the wound on Fu Ziqiu's back, which could hardly be seen in the blink of an eye!

Gu Zhizhou was very worried, seeing that he was naked behind him, he took off his coat and threw it over.

The clothes belonged to Fu Ziqiu, so he was not polite, twisted the water off, shook it off and put it on.

The fire dragon regained its sanity, and its body returned to normal size. It curled up its tail and lay down on the stone platform, looking exhausted. Blood was dripping from the part of its neck where the reverse scale had been pulled out, and it looked a little pitiful.It opened its mouth slightly, and the golden longan spat out, and Gu Zhizhou caught it with a raised arm.

Small round beads glowed in the palm of his hand.

Fire Dragon half closed his eyes and said softly, "You smell the same as us."

It turned out to be a female dragon.

Gu Zhizhou obviously didn't understand what it meant, his brows frowned slightly, and he questioned from his nasal cavity: "Huh?"

"Longan can't be glowed by anyone touching it, let the person next to you try."

Gu Zhizhou handed the beads to Fu Ziqiu inexplicably.

Fu Ziqiu took it, and the golden light did not die.

Gu Zhizhou laughed, "It's an inch."

The fire dragon straightened its neck in amazement, and lay back after a long while: "The two of you are not of my race, it's so strange, you have the smell of the dragon race on your body."

Gu Zhizhou didn't think too much about it, he thought about it and said, "It's not surprising, we stayed with Sea Dragon King for a long time, and now we meet you again here, so we must not be tainted with a little bit of dragon flavor."

Fire Dragon flicked his beard, as if he disagreed.

Gu Zhizhou didn't care about the smell on his body: "Tell me something useful, who gave you the soul-hunting technique?"

"I don't know." Huolong said, "A few days ago I was sleeping here on my stomach, and suddenly a cloud of black mist floated in from outside the cave. I lost consciousness before I could see what it was. It was just now when I woke up. The scales are pulled out."

Any fool knows how important reverse scales are to a dragon. Gu Zhizhou touched the red scale on his chest: "Ah... there is a reason for what happened, and there is a lot of offense. Can you see if you can get it back?"

The fire dragon shook off the dragon tail, rolled back the reverse scale from the palm of his hand, put it next to his head and looked at it, and said: "I did the volcanic eruption. Although it was controlled by others, it almost hurt the longan. I deserve it this time. "

It said, spit out a mouthful of fire lightly, and burned its reverse scales clean.

Gu Zhizhou glanced at Fu Ziqiu.

The fire dragon let go of its tail, and leisurely hung down to the stone platform: "You can ask whatever you want, and I will tell you what I know."

Fu Ziqiu put away the longan, and asked: "Your Excellency lives here to guard the submarine volcano?"

The fire dragon replied: "Yes, as long as I am here, this volcano will be safe for a day."

"The Sea Dragon King doesn't know about your existence?"

"Him?" Fire Dragon laughed: "He is too young, he should not know about it."

"Then why are you here?"

"Wearing the body of a sin, it's just atonement."

The fire dragon said slowly: "Thousands of years ago, there was no such volcano under Tianhai. I made a mistake and caused disasters to have it. Thanks to the emperor's favor, forgive my life, and I am responsible for guarding here from generation to generation to make up for my mistakes."

"Wait," Gu Zhizhou interrupted, "Is it Emperor Long Xiao?"

The fire dragon responded: "The volcano you see, the mountain wall is my dragon body, and the mountain fire is my heart. It is my dragon soul that is talking to you now."

Gu Zhizhou glanced at it in surprise, and said, "What mistake did you make to become like this?"

Fire Dragon paused, then quietly closed his eyes, the blood on his neck gradually stopped, leaving only a small blood hole.

"Jealous." It said lightly.

"Jealous..." Gu Zhizhou was dumbfounded, "Who are you jealous of?"

"A bird."

Gu Zhizhou was speechless, thinking he heard it wrong, a dragon jealous of a bird?

"Are you all right, what's your rivalry with birds?"

"That's no ordinary bird," Fire Dragon said, "It's Dijun's bird, and it's Dijun's favorite plaything,"

Gu Zhizhou was even more speechless, who is Dijun Long Xiao?That is the God of War who fought against the Nine Continents, the winner of the Heavenly Demon War, and the savior who divided the Three Realms and Six Realms and kept the people safe.It can be said that eight out of ten of the Three Realms being able to have what they are today is all due to him.It was him who said "Everyone who is born with the earth should be treated equally", in exchange for hundreds of years of peace between the heavenly and demon clans.Regardless of whether it is heaven or earth, everyone who mentions this name is in awe, even though he has passed away for a hundred years, he has also been passed down from generation to generation and praised from generation to generation.

The emperor has basically been fighting all his life, and he has been diligent in his spare time after the war. How many official and unofficial histories ever mentioned what kind of birds or animals he favored?

Gu Zhizhou didn't like to study, he yelled at Fu Ziqiu: "What kind of bird? Do you know?"

Unexpectedly, Fu Ziqiu gave a "huh" and said: "It is true that I have heard about it, but there are not many records in the book, only a few mentions during the Great War between Heaven and Demon."

Gu Zhizhou was caught blind, it's because he didn't read enough, he really has a bird!

"There are not many records because the emperor protects and does not allow writing."

Gu Zhizhou said: "What does that bird have to do with your being punished?"

"The Emperor is divine and mighty, from the Nine Heavens to the Undersea Dragon Palace, which woman doesn't admire him?" Huo Long flicked his tail, "Me too."

Gu Zhizhou seemed to understand something.

Huolong said: "At that time, Jiuchongtian wanted to propose marriage to His Highness, so he took a fancy to me. Although our lineage does not have the god-given power like His Highness, Tianhai is the emperor's mother family after all, and this alone is much more honorable than others. So, I I was sent to the Heavenly Palace by them. I thought I was waiting for His Highness to get married, but who knew that His Highness never saw him, so I pushed the marriage away. I was young and arrogant, so I went to His Highness to argue...

It's a coincidence that the dragon clan restriction set up by Changxiao Palace where His Highness lives is very easy for us to understand.Your Highness doesn't like to be disturbed, there are very few people in the palace, I entered the garden unimpeded all the way, and saw His Highness writing something on the stone table in the garden from a distance.It was the first time I saw Dijun. I was very nervous, but I didn't notice anything wrong. When I got closer, I saw a person nestled in front of His Highness. His Highness was holding her hand and teaching her how to paint. "

Gu Zhizhou was startled and said, "You saw her!"

"I didn't see the face clearly, and she was wearing a red dress. She is a stunning beauty to be favored by the emperor." Fire Dragon said, "Then the emperor found me, and the woman was startled, and turned into a blue bird and hid in the emperor's sleeve inside."

"What then?"

"Later, I argued with Dijun. He was really nice. He patiently listened to my bluffs and didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled at me gently and explained to me the reason why he didn't get married. He talked a lot of people in the world, If I hadn't seen that woman, I would have believed it, but at that time I felt that he was playing me and deceiving me, and he obviously liked someone else so he refused to marry me."

"Our Dragon Clan has tough bones. We don't admit defeat. If we fall in love with someone, we admit death. It's useless to persuade anyone. Thinking about it later, I was so persistent, and the emperor should be the same for that woman. But I was blinded by jealousy. , I couldn’t get Dijun, so I thought about how to get rid of the bird. But she didn’t show up very much, and I never found a chance until Dijun led the army to go out that year.”

"After I broke into the Changxiao Palace by mistake, the emperor changed the palace ban. If he couldn't enter, I sent someone to yell in front of the palace gate, saying that the emperor was ambushed in a battle and was seriously injured. People say that caring is chaotic, then Sure enough, the little blue bird fell for the trick, and as soon as it flew out of the palace wall with flapping wings, it was caught in my net."

Gu Zhizhou's heart tightened when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "Did you kill her?"

"Nearly." Huolong said, "Our family practices fire spells, so I set up a stove to roast her. Who knows that this bird is not afraid of fire at all, I burned her for three days and three nights without even hair Lost one. In a fit of anger, I threw her into Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace. This time she knew how powerful she was, and jumped up and down in the furnace with great energy. I was afraid that she would make a noise, so I sat on the top and watched. Who knew His Highness would come back early, I was afraid that my deeds would be revealed, so I simply threw the bird and the stove down from the Nine Heavens."

Huolong sighed unhurriedly: "Unlucky, he just fell into the sea of ​​sky. Your Highness is gentle by nature, and he has never spoken harshly before. Later, I learned from others that it was the first time he got angry. His Highness came to me and asked me why I did this. I thought he was doing it because of the bird, so I fought him out of my temper.

After hearing what I said, he lost all anger. He just looked at me very pitifully, and said: "The alchemy furnace fell into the sky and formed a submarine volcano. It may erupt at any time. Once the volcano erupts, thousands of creatures will die." This is fatal. '"

"Dijun personally went to Tianhai. I don't know how he calmed down the volcano and how he rescued the bird. When he came back, I also realized my mistake, so I invited myself to guard the volcano. This is what I have to deal with. After that, I came here, and the emperor attached my dragon body to the mountain, and my heart sank into the heart of fire, so that the dragon soul will live forever. So I will not grow old, I will not die, and I will be there one day , this volcano will be stable for one day, and it will not be a hidden danger.”

Gu Zhizhou didn't know that there are so many stories about a volcano, and he heard that "life after life will never die and never die", a dragon will spend all his time trapped in the mountain, this price is more cruel than death.He couldn't bear it: "It's better to die, what's the point of living like this?"

Huolong shook his head: "I caused the disaster, not for anything else, but for the stability of Tianhai for generations, and I am willing."

Gu Zhizhou had a poisonous tongue: "Why are you a man?"

It is not taken for granted now, but not necessarily when I was young and vigorous.

The fire dragon did not tell him apart.

After hearing the whole process, Fu Ziqiu was no less shocked than Gu Zhizhou.He sorted things out and said, "In other words, someone knows that you are trapped here."

Huolong glanced at him sideways: "It's not a glorious thing. In the past 1000 years, the emperors have all gone, and almost everyone who knows has died. If you ask me who performed the soul-hunting technique, I don't know. What, I don’t know. I’ve lived here for a long time, so I don’t know what’s going on outside. But I guess, it should be because I was hit by the soul-destroyer first, which caused the volcano to erupt, and the shock of the seabed spread to the underground palace before the longan fell. Longan is in the palm of luck, Maybe it is someone who can't see the Tianhai Dragon Clan and wants to use it to destroy it? I don't know, you descendants should check it yourself."

Gu Zhizhou's mind was spinning quickly. The Dragon Palace above was messed up by the volcano, shaking, and so many treasures were destroyed. He was still thinking about the birthday of the Emperor of Heaven, so he said cheekily: "Hey, what is that? Your Excellency and the emperor Is there a relationship?"

This time it was the fire dragon's turn to be puzzled, it raised its eyes: "A relative from afar, what's the matter?"

Fu Ziqiu also looked at him in a daze.

Gu Zhizhou said: "Oh, look, we ran down with so much effort, we were burned by fire and scalded by water, you just saw his back, it's all hurt like that, just to find longan and protect you The stability of Tianhai."

"so?"

"So Dijun's younger brother's birthday is coming soon. It's good for Dijun's face, and it's good for us to help. Is there any night pearl, pearl, give me a gift."

Fu Ziqiu was stunned, and grabbed Gu Zhizhou's arm: "Why do you still ask for benefits!"

"Is this my original intention?" Gu Zhizhou said in embarrassment, "Didn't you see what the Dragon Palace did to Huo Huo? If I don't get the gift, I'll just make a trip for nothing!"

Fu Ziqiu heard the truth: "You came to Tianhai for this?"

Gu Zhizhou slipped his tongue, and gritted his teeth regretfully: "It's all right, don't hold on to it."

Fu Ziqiu let go of him angrily and pushed him, he really didn't want to talk to him.

Huolong has stayed here for thousands of years, and it was the first time he saw a living person today. It was interesting to see the two of them bickering, and he rolled his tail and opened a corner of the stone platform: "There are many good things under there, you can pick them yourself."

Gu Zhizhou was almost blinded by the bright red light, there were red pearls under the stone platform!

He couldn't help it: "A lot..."

Huolong smiled and said: "It's boring to be alone, grinding beads for fun, you like to get more, it's useless for me to keep it."

Hearing what it said, Gu Zhizhou was really rude, he grabbed two handfuls and put them in his pockets, Fu Ziqiu couldn't see it.

Huolong said: "Go out later, don't tell me about my existence when you get to the top. Now that there are few people who know about it and there are people making trouble, if you make it public again, there is no guarantee that others will be able to take advantage of it in the future. I am in a dilemma In this regard, many things are beyond our capabilities, and the two of you will take more responsibility."

As soon as it finished speaking, it suddenly raised its head vigilantly.

"What's wrong?" Fu Ziqiu asked.

"Someone is coming, it's yours."

The fire dragon sent the two of them to the entrance of the cave: "If you go any further, I will be seen. Swim up by yourself."

Gu Zhizhou gained a lot, and he became more polite: "Senior, thank you very much!"

Fu Ziqiu couldn't understand him, he kicked him out, turned his head and said goodbye: "Your Majesty, take care."

The fire dragon was entrenched at the entrance of the cave, watching them gradually go away.

Those two were swimming and arguing like children, after a while Gu Zhizhou sneaked up behind Fu Ziqiu, broke his teeth, and kicked his ass.

Gu Zhizhou managed to spit bubbles and chased after him. Fu Ziqiu turned his face helplessly, his black coat was scattered on his back, revealing the red corners of his clothes.From this angle, they seem to be hugging.

Huolong saw it clearly, and was suddenly taken aback.

The figure one after the other made it feel familiar and surprised.

Its eyes widened suddenly.
