Burning fire

"Wangshengtan?" Guo Qingxuan was stunned, "Wangshengtan..."

She repeated it twice: "I seem to have heard it somewhere."

"A token of flattery, reflecting past lives." Zhang Jueming hurried to the edge of the pool.He only cared about Zhou Qizun just now, he hadn't paid attention to the pool of water yet.

"This is the water of the secret realm." Zhang Jueming said, "Being the spirit of primordial chaos, only the Great Barren Mountain has the water of rebirth."

"If this is really a secret place set up by the Great Barren Mountain, then it is not surprising that there is a pool of past lives in the Great Barren Mountain." Guo Heng said.

"Second uncle, you...your face!" Guo Qingxuan glanced at Guo Heng, and suddenly shouted in surprise.

Guo Heng was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand to touch his cheek, and touched a few hard and cold dragon scales.

Guo Heng was not surprised: "The chaotic spirit veins at the beginning of the world were extremely powerful, and it should be forced to show dragon scales by this pool of rebirth."

Guo Heng smiled: "Xuan'er, look at your legs."

"My legs? Hey!" Guo Qingxuan lowered her head and immediately widened her eyes—her legs turned back into dragon tails at some point!

"What's this..." Guo Qingxuan went to see the bottomless pool of past lives again—so powerful, not only could she not maintain her human form, she didn't even know that her tail had changed.

Fortunately, Guo Xiaotong was not brought in. If that little rabbit with shallow cultivation came here, let alone being beaten back to its original form, it might not be able to hold on to the aura, and would faint for days and nights.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Zhang Jueming dragged Zhou Qizun, not daring to let him get too close to the pool.

Zhou Qizun shook his head: "No."

Zhou Qizun pointed to the pool of water: "I fell into it just now and drank a few sips of water. If something happens, I won't be able to wake up early."

Zhang Jueming took a closer look at Zhou Qizun and was relieved to see that there was nothing unusual about this person.

As soon as he relaxed, the palm of his right hand suddenly burst into scorching heat, and a flame burst out of his palm without warning!

Zhang Jueming quickly moved away from Zhou Qizun, he stared at his palm in disbelief, seeing that the punishment did not obey the order, he actually got out by himself!

"This..." Guo Heng couldn't understand.

The aura of the water in the rebirth pool is particularly strong, forcing them to appear as spirits and monsters can be explained, but what about the punishment?

Could it be that the punishment was tempered by the soul fire of the mountain sage, and after sensing the spiritual power of the mountain sage, he couldn't help but want to come out?

"Punishment!"

Guo Hengzheng was puzzled, Zhang Jueming suddenly shouted loudly, he was horrified to hear the sound.

——The punishment... unexpectedly wrapped around Zhou Qizun's arm obediently!

Zhou Qizun: "..."

Why do you want to pester him?First came the Baiteng ghost, and then came Zhang Jueming's punishment. Is this secret realm bullying him, a mortal?

The punishment wrapped around Zhou Qizun's arm, and the burning fire was extinguished instantly, that black iron rope seemed to be well-behaved, honestly and gently wrapped around Zhou Qizun, as if seeking intimacy.

"Punishment actually took the initiative... What is this!" Guo Qingxuan twitched the tip of her tail twice, also surprised.

Not only was she surprised, but she was also afraid.What kind of punishment is it!Being entangled by this thing, regardless of ghosts, monsters, evil spirits, once it catches fire, everyone will eat a pot of it!

Even the ancient fierce beasts like Jiuying Qiongqi couldn't get cheap!

"Oh my god! Zhou Qizun, don't move!" Guo Qingxuan yelled.

Zhou Qizun was obedient and did not move.He was indeed courageous, but it was also because the other end of the punishment was in the hands of Zhang Jueming. Although he knew it was not a good thing, he did not panic.

He can even say poorly: "...the object looks like the main character?"

Zhou Qizun glanced at Zhang Jueming, and immediately shut his mouth shut.

——Zhang Jueming's face was pale, and he clenched his right hand tightly.He kept mobilizing his spiritual power, trying to drive Tan Chay back, but Tan Chay didn't listen to him, and still entangled Zhou Qizun.

"Casia, it's not angry now, so don't be afraid." Zhou Qizun chose to coax people instead of panicking.

Zhang Jueming stepped over, gently holding Zhou Qizun's arm with his left hand: "It...it..."

Zhang Jueming could no longer speak.How many evil monsters he has split with punishment, and how powerful punishment is, how could he not know?

Even if Zhou Qizun wasn't frightened by the punishment, he was frightened by Zhang Jueming.Seeing Zhang Jueming's complexion getting worse and worse, Zhou Qizun felt terrified.

Zhou Qizun stared at the iron chain on his wrist: "...What are you doing wrapping my hands? Your master is calling you!"

Strange!

Tat Punishment seemed to understand Zhou Qizun's words!After Zhou Qizun finished speaking, it really reacted to Zhang Jueming's spiritual power.

Seeing that the iron chain seems to be reluctant to let go, it twitched twice between Zhou Qizun's wrists, and finally let go.

The tart fell to the ground, a cluster of flames suddenly appeared, and at the same time as the spiritual fire was extinguished, a red light flashed in Zhang Jueming's palm, and the tart disappeared.

Since Zhang Jueming took over as Shan Gui, he has encountered many dangers, and this is the first time his legs have been weak.It's not because he's not arrogant enough—the punishment is his property, if Zhou Qizun is punished and his life is injured, then...it's the same as him standing there with his own hands...

Seeing that something was wrong with Zhang Jueming, Zhou Qizun stretched out his hand to pull him over, letting Zhang Jueming half lean on his shoulder: "Are you okay?"

Zhang Jueming was silent for a moment, and then said like the rest of his life after a catastrophe: "I was scared to death."

Guo Qingxuan and Guo Heng also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master Shangui, is there ever a time when you don't obey your orders?" Guo Heng asked Zhang Jueming.

"Never before." Zhang Jueming said quickly, "Since I took over as the mountain ghost, in the past nine years, punishment has been connected to my soul, and I will never ignore my orders."

"What is the mystery of this place, that such strange things can happen?" Guo Heng couldn't calm down.

Several people's minds are in a mess, and no one can guess.

"Don't panic." Zhou Qizun is really not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, he is the most prone to trouble, but the calmest.

"Jade Ming, is my great-grandfather's thumb still on you?" Zhou Qizun patted the back of Zhang Jueming's hand.

"Yes." Zhang Jueming paused, and took out the blood jade finger wrench from his pocket.

"Yes! Pull your finger!" Guo Heng had an idea, "Wangshengtan! Maybe, Xiangshengtan can use this finger to see about your great-grandfather!"

"A token of flattery, reflecting past lives." Zhang Jueming murmured.

Zhou Qizun took the blood jade finger wrench with a serious face.He breathed out, raised his hand and threw the wrench into the pool!

Pull your finger into the water, like a bright red cinnabar falling into it.It sank slowly, slowly glowing red in the pool.Like the cinnabar melting, after a while, there is a light red water in the pool.

The aura slowly faded away, and a phantom appeared on the water surface!

The shadow that came out first was a little boy!

"...This is my great-grandfather?" Zhou Qizun stood by the pool, feeling a strange feeling in his heart.

"It should be." Zhang Jueming held Zhou Qizun's hand tightly, as if Zhou Qizun would melt into bubbles and disappear if he relaxed a little.

Zhou Qizun was already scratched by him, but Zhou Qizun glanced sideways at Zhang Jueming, and didn't ask Zhang Jueming to be gentle.

The phantom on the water became clearer, and they could clearly see the boy's attire, which was true about a hundred years ago.

He was wearing a silk-like mandarin jacket and a round hat.Judging from the clothes and accessories, even if his family is not a landlord, they must have quite a lot of money.

"My great-grandfather's family seems to be relatively wealthy." Zhou Qizun said.

A circle of microwaves rippled on the surface of the water, the shadow changed, and a mountain appeared behind the little boy.The boy ran to the mountain, not caring that his beautiful clothes were stained, holding something precious in his arms.

The little boy went up halfway up the mountain and got into a lush bush.

The grass barely reached the top of his head, and the little boy struggled to walk a few steps, but he still held the thing in his arms carefully.

Passing through the bushes and brushing away the weeds, there is a cave in front of you.

There is a huge long dragon coiled around the entrance of the cave!

The whole body of the dragon is fine red, and the delicate scales emit a cold light.

It was a scary look, but the little boy was not afraid. He staggered over a few steps and opened the thing in his arms—a stack of sugar cookies wrapped in a cloth bag.

The little boy was lying beside the faucet, his chin playfully resting on his palms, and he said something innocently.

The dragon's eyes remained closed, but he moved his head slightly for a long time, opened his mouth a little, and swallowed the sugar cake fed by the little boy.

"That's Zhu Jiuyin." Seeing this, Guo Heng said.

"Is it Zhu Jiuyin? Is it Liangxuan?" Zhou Qizun looked at the dragon more carefully.

"It should be a hundred years ago, when Jinlong and Zhu Jiuyin first escaped from Nanshui."

Guo Heng said: "Breaking the ban on the Nanshui fief has cost them a lot of energy. The Dragon Clan was also chasing them at that time. Maybe Liangxuan was injured and hid in Changbie Mountain."

"Zhu Jiuyin is Liangxuan, what about the golden dragon?" Zhang Jueming always felt that something was wrong, and his face was very ugly.

"I don't know." Guo Heng shook his head, "Guo Chonghui was born with weak spiritual power, and he may have been injured more severely than Liang Xuan. I think Zhu Jiuyin is coiled at the entrance of the cave, or is guarding the cave behind it."

"Then the golden dragon might be in the cave?" Guo Qingxuan asked.

"Let's take a look." Guo Heng only said, "I think they are at least together."

"Two dragons..." Zhou Qizun saw again, the little boy dared to reach out to touch the dragon's head!

Zhou Qizun: "..."

Maybe his Zhou family's "daring and reckless behavior" is hereditary, I really can't say.

But Zhu Jiuyin didn't hurt the little boy.

After Zhu Jiuyin finished eating the sugar cake, he lowered his head again, refusing to pay attention to him.

A layer of waves swayed, and the image on the water changed again.

This time it was night.Maybe it just rained.When the little boy went up the mountain again, he fell and got wet mud all over his body and face.

He crawled up to Zhu Jiuyin crying.

He hugged Zhu Jiuyin's dragon horns with a pair of poor dirty hands, crying desperately.

Zhu Jiuyin remained motionless at first, until the little boy was so tired from crying that he was so exhausted that he almost fainted beside him, then he finally raised his head slightly!

"What happened?" Zhou Qizun was confused, "What is my great-grandpa begging for?"

Zhang Jueming, who was beside him, let out a slight breath. He didn't answer Zhou Qizun's question, or even reply to the relevant words. Instead, he said in a softer voice: "Zhu Jiuyin is born with a cruel and fierce nature, and is easily possessed by demons, but it is also called Zhulong. Eyes are fire spirits. When Candle Dragon opens his eyes..."

Before Zhang Jueming finished speaking, Zhu Jiuyin in the water shadow had opened his eyes—they were a pair of fireball-like dragon pupils!It's like two hot and burning suns!It opened its eyes, and the night around the little boy suddenly became as bright as day!
