Burning fire

The red leopard carried the two of them and ran so far deep into the forest that Qiongqi's roar could not be heard at all.

The higher the place, the lower the temperature. Although it was already early spring, Zhou Qizun had expended a lot of energy just now and had many bumps and injuries on his body. He was already exhausted after such a tossing.

Unconsciously, he leaned closer to Zhang Jueming, but then he thought about Zhang Jueming's serious injury on his back, and his body bounced up again, his chest left Zhang Jueming's back.

"Does it hurt you?" Zhou Qizun asked, he found that his lips were numb, and he couldn't feel his lips moving when he spoke.

"It doesn't hurt." Zhang Jueming paused and asked Zhou Qizun, "Is it cold?"

"How could it not hurt." Zhou Qizun clicked his tongue.

Zhou Qizun: "It's a bit cold. My arms and legs are completely numb, so I don't feel much."

I really didn't feel anything, and even my brain was numb.Being carried by the red leopard to fly in the sky, he didn't think there was anything strange or frightening.Sure enough, people's endurance is unlimited.

Zhang Jueming frowned, lowered his eyes to look down, and patted Chibao's head with his hand: "Stop, go to the cave below."

"Cave?" Zhou Qizun also glanced down.He saw nothing but thick milky white mountain fog.

"Your eyes are really good..." Zhou Qizun said angrily.

"The mountain mist array is used to trap Qiongqi and prevent him from going outside. But I didn't expect you to be brought in." Zhang Jueming said.

He was terrified - he knew that the fake Zhou Yi was gone, but he couldn't find any clues, and she didn't leave any trace.Unexpectedly, this is just a cover.The other party aimed to hold him back with Qiongqi, and then let "Zhou Yi" show up to pull Zhou Qizun into the bait.

It's really a good card for precision.

"I'm going down." Zhang Jueming let out a short breath from his lips, and said after a short pause, "Maybe it's not stable, you hold me."

"...Well." Zhou Qizun paused, wrapped his arms around Zhang Jueming's waist, and gently hugged him, "Your waist is not hurt, is it?"

"...No." Zhang Jueming's voice became softer, "Hold tighter and be careful."

"Okay." Zhou Qizun was obedient, and with a little strength in his arms, he hugged Zhang Jueming's waist firmly.

Thin waist, fine, but not thin.When you hold it, you feel safe.

Gee.

.

In a blink of an eye, the red leopard landed, and it stopped in front of a cave.

This cave must be very deep, and it is pitch black when you look into it. It looks like a good place to hide evil.

Zhou Qizun and Zhang Jueming jumped off the red leopard, Zhang Jueming took a step forward first, rubbed his fingertips lightly, and then flicked into the hole, a cluster of fire was immediately born in the hole.

The fire was not far from the entrance of the cave, just enough to illuminate Zhou Qizun's line of sight.

"Start a fire out of thin air..." It wasn't the first time Zhou Qizun saw Zhang Jueming's ability, but he still clicked the tip of his tongue.

"Go ahead, don't go deep." Zhang Jueming said.

"En." Zhou Qizun nodded.

Zhou Qizun raised his legs and walked in.The feet finally landed on the ground.After the series of narrow escapes just now, I was a little inexplicably moved when I stepped on the ground now.

Zhou Qizun's legs were still numb, but the soles of his feet had already started to tingle and he was regaining consciousness.

After walking two steps into the cave, feeling the warmth of the flames, Zhou Qizun breathed a sigh of relief.

"You...huh?" Zhou Qizun looked back, Zhang Jueming didn't go into the cave with him, but was still standing at the entrance of the cave.

"Why don't you come in, what are you doing standing at the entrance of the cave?" Zhou Qizun murmured.

He originally wanted to raise his voice and shout at Zhang Jueming, but his voice was split by his yelling earlier, so it's better not to speak louder now, otherwise the noise would be so broken that it would look like a tofu flower.

Zhou Qizun turned around and walked back a few steps, and stood a little closer to Zhang Jueming. This time he understood before he even asked.

——He saw the red leopard groaning, shrinking its neck and drooping its tail, and lay down aggrieved.

Zhou Qizun: "..."

What a majestic red fire leopard, with flames under its feet, galloping among the mountains and clouds.But now, after being silently stared at twice by Zhang Jueming, he turned into a wimpy coward who couldn't hold his head up anymore.

Look at how promising this is, Zhang Jueming hasn't trained a word yet.

"This little thing understands human nature, don't stare at it." Zhou Qizun begged for Chi Bao.

He is also responsible for this matter. It must be because Chi Bao listened to him and took him back to find Zhang Jueming, so he was blamed by Zhang Jueming.

Zhou Qizun said: "We're all fine now, so why don't you give up your mind?"

"..." Zhang Jueming turned his face to look at Zhou Qizun.

fine?

The bold man opposite him had ragged clothes, his face was covered with mud and blood, he had messy hair like a dog, and there were countless bruises and blood on his body.

And on his neck...

With such a dignified appearance, he is ashamed to intercede with Chi Bao.

"This is not an example." Zhang Jueming said to Chibao.

The red leopard grunted. It must have been frightened by its movement.

But Zhou Qizun didn't quite understand.Apart from Zhang Jueming's sharp skills, he is not considered a ruthless character, let alone his temper. Why is Chi Bao afraid of becoming like this?

Zhou Qizun looked at Zhang Jueming's face: "..."

He is dumb.

Zhang Jueming screwed up his beautiful brows, and was staring at him with deep eyes.

Zhou Qizun: "..."

People with clear and beautiful eyes, once they look at people with such resentful eyes, their lethality will be doubled.Not only can express the grievance vividly, but also add a naked grievance.

Zhou Qizun couldn't take it anymore, he waved his hand and pointed at Chibao: "Okay, I'm the same as it, and I won't be an example. I'll listen to you from now on, okay?"

Chi Leopard, an evil animal, was quite good at running around, so he quickly chirped again to echo Zhou Qizun.

This kind of person and animal is not pleasing at all, but Zhang Jueming doesn't like this at all.

Zhang Jueming walked up to Zhou Qizun in two steps, his eyes swept across Zhou Qizun's face and stopped on his neck.

Zhang Jueming said in a deep voice, "Why don't you bring the evil spirit talisman?"

Zhou Qizun: "..."

After being told by Zhang Jueming, Zhou Qizun remembered this.Today I went to the crematorium to see off Lei Dongyang, and changed into the clothes that Liu Jian lent him, but I didn't have time to bring the evil spirit talisman on purpose.Naturally, he didn't expect that in broad daylight, he could blatantly produce moths in the crematorium.

Thinking about how powerful the Fusha Talisman was, even a green dragon's tail could poke a hole, if he carried it on his body today, at least Zhou Qizun wouldn't be so passive.

"You clearly promised me that you would take it with you." Zhang Jueming said, but reached out to touch Zhou Qizun's neck.

"...Hua Sha... Hiss, it hurts..." Zhou Qizun almost jumped in pain.

As a soldier, he was often injured, with big sores and small scars left behind, and he developed the ability to endure pain, and he never made a fuss about ordinary injuries.But when Zhang Jueming touched his neck, it hurt so much that he just wanted to cut off his own neck.

"What's wrong with my neck?" Zhou Qizun asked grinning.

Zhang Jueming lowered his voice: "You have a black handprint on your neck."

The first time I saw Zhou Qizun and Zhang Jueming, I saw it.There was a small black handprint on Zhou Qizun's neck, which was made by something unclean.You can tell by the size that it is a woman's hand.

Zhang Jueming has been haunted by Qiongqi since last night and cannot be separated from him.But when he saw the handprint, he immediately figured it out—it was the fake "Zhou Yi".

She was the one who lured Zhou Qizun in, and almost strangled Zhou Qizun to death.

Panic, guilt, heartache...too many complex emotions came up all at once, and Zhang Jueming couldn't bear it at all.Even if Zhou Qizun is standing in front of him alive and kicking now, he still can't do it...

"If there is an evil spirit talisman, the unclean things can't be..." Zhang Jueming closed his mouth halfway.If he is concerned, he will be confused, and he is outspoken.

That unclean thing looks exactly like Zhou Yi.That face was Zhou Qizun's heart and soul.

Zhang Jueming carefully raised his head and glanced at Zhou Qizun.

But Zhou Qizun's expression was as usual, and there was no unnecessary reaction.

Without a mirror, Zhou Qizun couldn't look at his neck now, so he could only ask Zhang Jueming, "What about this handprint?"

"It's all evil spirits, I must get rid of it for you right away." Zhang Jueming said, he paused, "Be patient."

Zhang Jueming raised his hand, his fingertips trembling slightly.He gently rubbed the skin on Zhou Qizun's neck with his fingertips, his movements were so light and cautious.

"..." Zhou Qizun hurriedly shut his mouth to avoid howling from the pain when he opened his mouth, which would be embarrassing.

Rubbing Zhou Qizun's Adam's apple with his fingertips, Zhang Jueming's useless fingers retracted quickly as if they had been electrocuted.

Zhou Qizun endured the pain, gritted his teeth and looked at Zhang Jueming, narrowing his eyes.

Zhang Jueming finally wiped Zhou Qizun's neck carefully with his fingers, and Zhou Qizun couldn't stop crying from the pain.

Zhou Qizun sat down on the ground, unable to speak for a few minutes.

Zhou Qizun leaned against the stone wall behind him: "It hurts more than stabbing me with a knife."

Standing opposite Zhang Jueming, Zhou Qizun saw with sharp eyes that the tip of the index finger of Zhang Jueming's right hand was actually bleeding.

Just now Zhang Jueming used this finger to wipe the black handprint on his neck.

When did it break?

Zhou Qizun was stunned for a moment, and stretched out his hand to touch his own neck, his hand was really blood red.

"..." Zhou Qizun's face darkened, "Your blood can be used as medicine, and it's specially designed to get rid of evil spirits."

"The blood of the mountain ghost is...ahem..." Zhang Jueming said halfway, covered his mouth and coughed a few times.

Zhang Jueming breathed a sigh of relief: "The other things are not important, you will..."

"I called you." Zhou Qizun suddenly cut off Zhang Jueming's words.

"Are you calling me?" Zhang Jueming was stunned for a moment, and quickly went to take out the mobile phone in his trouser pocket. When he took it out, he found that it had been turned off a long time ago.

"Well, I called last night." Zhou Qizun said. "But it didn't work."

Last night Zhang Jueming and Lin Juan were entangled by Qiongqi. After a great battle, Qiongqi finally ran away. Zhang Jueming and Lin Juan got separated and spent the whole night looking for someone. Received a call from Zhou Qizun.

Zhang Jueming clutched the phone.blame him.It was because he didn't protect people well, Zhou Qizun obviously looked for him, but he wasn't there.

Zhang Jueming: "Sorry, I..."

"I didn't ask you to apologize. I told you to let you know that I'm not really stupid." Zhou Qizun stared at Zhang Jueming, "There's a big difference between humans and demons, I understand. It's precisely because of this that those The thing troubles me, and I can't hide at all. Whether it's impulsive or deliberate, the result is the same. Sometimes, if I try to hide, I might hurt the innocent."

Zhou Qizun: "I will ask you for help. This time it is a little bit, but it won't be like this every time."

Suddenly, Zhou Qizun smiled lightly, and said casually, "Looking at you like this, it seems like it's your duty to protect me."

"I..." Zhang Jueming opened his mouth and was speechless.

The air was quiet, and for a brief moment neither of them spoke.

Some inexplicable things fermented unknowingly among them, forcing Zhang Jueming to lower his head, not daring to look at Zhou Qizun again.

It was Zhou Qizun who sighed first, he stood up, and said to Zhang Jueming, "Let me see your injury."

Zhou Qizun walked towards Zhang Jueming: "Whatever your blood is, you have lost too much blood today."

Zhang Jueming was dressed in black, so he couldn't show it. If he changed into a white suit, he would definitely be a bloody man now.

Zhou Qizun knew it well, according to his amount of bleeding, ordinary people would have gone into coma and shock.

"I see..." Zhou Qizun's hand just touched Zhang Jueming's shoulder, but Zhang Jueming suddenly turned around and turned around.

Zhang Jueming hastily stepped back two more steps, but he still lowered his head and refused to raise it, and whispered, "I'm fine."

"...What's wrong with you?" Zhou Qizun held back his embarrassment for a few days, but he couldn't hold Huo Nianzi, and was immediately pointed out by Zhang Jueming's foolishness.

He was so angry that he glared at Zhang Jueming: "Don't show me? You have eyes in your back?"

Zhou Qizun: "Show me your back!"

"I...I'm fine." Zhang Jueming stammered and repeated the original words.

Zhou Qizun raised his finger to point at Zhang Jueming, but couldn't find a word to scold.

I have never seen someone who has to cover up the injury and not show it to others.Tired of life?

Zhou Qizun stared at Zhang Jueming carefully for a while, and suddenly had an out-of-the-ordinary idea.

He is a very mean person, how can he let Zhang Jueming fool around.With Zhang Jueming's skills, he is far inferior to him.

Zhou Qizun suddenly changed his countenance, and softened his tone: "I'm sorry, next time I will definitely bring the evil spirit talisman with me. I promise you that I will never let you worry."

Look, he should have said this just now, but he insisted on moving it to this moment.

Deliberately, unintentionally.

But he really felt his pulse, the cotton candy in front of him became soft when he heard it, Zhang Jueming raised his head to look at Zhou Qizun, he lost his guard for a moment, he was about to open his mouth to say something, when Zhou Qizun suddenly clamped his arms , turned his head and peeled off his clothes...

——Don’t show it, I’ll pick it up myself!

His back was injured, and the clothes on Zhang Jueming's back were all torn. You could see the wound when you peeled off the rags of the clothes. No matter how fast Zhang Jueming reacted, it was too late to resist.

"You..." Zhou Qizun took a wrong step back and stood behind Zhang Jueming. He blinked and looked at the injury on Zhang Jueming's back in disbelief.

"you......"

"You" twice, nothing "you".Zhou Qizun suspected that he was lame.He simply ripped off Zhang Jueming's shirt...

This time the wound was more exposed, and Zhou Qizun could see it more clearly - a penetrating wound, inserted obliquely into Zhang Jueming's vest.Although the wound is not shallow, it is definitely not deep. There is no major artery in the back, so it is impossible for this injury to bleed so much.

And Zhang Jueming's blood is not like the blood of ordinary people, his blood has the special fragrance of mountain ghosts.Otherwise, Zhang Jueming, a man of one blood, would have already had a foul smell.

——The only explanation is that Zhang Jueming's wound is already healing.The injury healed quickly, and it probably won't be long before it will heal on its own.

From this point of view, Zhang Jueming said that he was "all right" and he was really all right.Zhou Qizun, on the other hand, is superfluous, meddling in other people's affairs, and worrying about things.

"Your injury is almost healed?" Zhou Qizun blinked again, "Self-healing?"

Zhang Jueming's whole body was tense, and he didn't dare to move.He was as hard as a piece of dead wood, about to mold and turn black, to ashes.

After a while, Zhang Jueming asked softly, "Is it disgusting?"
