Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang followed the prestige, and on a high cliff in the distance, there were five people standing.
At this time, the moonlight was blocked by the clouds, and the distance was too far away, and the appearance of the five people could not be seen clearly, only the outline of the appearance.
The five of them were all different in height, shortness, fat and thinness, and one of them seemed to be carrying a huge box like a coffin, but even if they stood far away, they were still not weak.
Tianzun and Yin Hou watched from above, and they couldn't help but raise their eyebrows.
"Isn't your kung fu good?"
Tianzun nodded.
"I'm more interested in the boat behind them. ” At this time, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang could not be seen, but Yin Hou and Tianzun were located in a very high position, so they could see a huge black boat parked on the lake behind the puppet cave mansion.
"It's an iron ship," Yin Hou began.
"I don't understand whether it's iron or not."
Tianzun said coldly, "But I recognize that flag." ” Following the line of sight of Tianzun and Yin Hou, he saw a flag hanging above the strange-looking black iron ship.
It's a black flag, triangular in shape, with a blue flame pattern on it, very simple, but impressive.
"It's from Demon Flame City."
Yin Hou frowned, "Didn't Demon Flame City burn to ashes a hundred years ago, didn't I miss something?"
” "We seem to have missed a lot of things in the past hundred years," Tianzun said, gesturing at the ship, with a strangely shaped iron shelf erected.
The two looked at each other and patted their heads.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were looking at the five figures, when they heard a voice breaking through the air, raised their faces, and a point of light appeared in the sky.
The two of them were looking, and they heard a familiar chirp and turned around, only to see that they were skimming the water at some point, and Tianzun raised his hand and swept it Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were brought up by a strong internal force and reached the back of the young man.
They spread their wings and flew high into the air.
Almost at the same time, there was a loud bang, and a blue fireball smashed into the river beach where they had just been After the fireball was smashed on the rock, the fire flew and countless small fireballs splashed out and fell to the surface of the water.
This was followed by a "boom".
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked down and saw that blue flames were burning around the puppet cave mansion, and the entire lake was burning, which should have been caused by the fuel sprinkled on the lake when those Kong Ming lanterns fell just now.
The vegetation on the skull-shaped island was also ignited, and the fire grew stronger and stronger, and soon, the originally black skeleton turned into a burning skeleton.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned, looking at Tianzun and Yin Hou.
Yin Hou pointed into the distance.
I saw that a black ship was sailing away, and it had disappeared into the fog on the lake, the outline was not very clear, but there was a flag on the bow, and the flame pattern on the flag was very obvious.
"What kind of person?"
Zhan Zhao asked.
Yin Hou shook his head, "It's not an ordinary person. ” Bai Yutang looked at the burning island, "Why is the fire blue?"
"This kind of fire is called Demon Flame, and it is the symbol of Demon Flame City."
Tianzun patted Mi Mi's head, signaled to fly back, and Mi Mi turned around and went back to Suzhou Mansion.
"Those people are going to run away" Zhanzhao was a little unwilling.
Yin Hou shook his head slightly, "The situation is unknown, and it is not a wise choice to catch up." ” "Demon Flame City" Bai Yutang frowned, "I seem to have heard about the legend of it when I traveled in the Western Regions. ” Yin Hou was quite interested, "What version of the legend are you listening to?"
Bai Yutang said, "According to legend, the Demon Flame City was built on the Demon Flame Sea, that is, in a volcanic crater, the Demon Flame Sea is formed by magma, the Demon Flame Mountain burns all year round, the city is quite hot, the whole city is built in the center of the magma, and the entry and exit are all dependent on iron ships to cross the magma. ” Zhanzhao heard it freshly, "What kind of iron ship, it doesn't melt when it travels in magma" Bai Yutang said, "It's just a legend, a very knowledgeable old man told me. ” "How old is that old man?"
asked Yin Hou.
"I'm seventy or eighty years old."
Bai Yutang recalled.
"Then he's just hearsay, and he hasn't seen Demon Flame City with his own eyes."
Yin Hou shook his head.
As they spoke, they had already flown to the shore of Suzhou Mansion.
Zhan Zhao frowned slightly and pointed to the dock on the shore, "It seems that it's not just the puppet cave mansion that is on fire. ” As far as the eye can see, I can only see that a dock on the dock is burning, and the streets of Suzhou are also noisy with gongs and drums, because several places are on fire, the same blue flames.
Landing at the pier.
After everyone came down, they saw several familiar figures.
I saw that on the dock, Ouyang Shaozheng and they were all there, and they were directing people to extinguish the fire.
Zhao Pu was standing not far away, beside him, Gongsun was squatting, and there was a corpse lying in front of him.
Zhan Zhao and the others walked over.

"I'm back" Zhao Pu greeted everyone, and he was relieved to see Zhanzhao and others coming back safely.
"Just now, the old people over there in Wuzhuang were clamoring to go to the island to find you."
Gongsun raised his face and looked at everyone, "The shadow guards said that the little fourth son said that if there are too many people, you won't be able to come back." ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned for a moment, and then thought about it, isn't it the "weapon" used by the black ship just now that burned the cave to ashes almost instantly, if more people go to the island, maybe they won't be able to escape, and there will be some casualties.
"The little fourth son is still a spirit."
Tianzun and Yin Hou both nodded.
Bai Yutang looked at the corpse on the ground, frowned and asked Zhao Pu, "Who is it?"
"The spies in the village."
Gongsun found that someone had poisoned the wick when they found it, and then waited until the spies stole the oil lamp, and then followed it all the way here and roughly told Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang about it.
"How could he die," Zhanzhao was curious.
"Poisoned to death."
Gongsun was helpless, "It's not just that he's dead.
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed ahead.
In the distance, Zou Liang and Lin Yehuo were also there, and there were many corpses lying at their feet.
"How can this be" Bai Yutang was puzzled.
"They all ran to the dock en masse, and a few of us followed all the way, and who knew that when they got here, they entered the dock, and then one or two of them died of poison, and then there was an inexplicable strange fire that burned.
Not only that, but the residences of these people in the Four Great Sects were also on fire.
"This fire doesn't seem to be quenched."
"But the fire doesn't spread with the wind, you see it's not on fire anywhere except the dock." ” "Situ Yue and Yan Xingyi are dead."
Zou Liang walked over and said, "The four major sects have also killed many disciples, all of whom were poisoned and killed, and they should all be latent spies. ” "Kill people and kill people" Zhanzhao frowned.
"The people behind the scenes can be regarded as ruthless."
Long Qiaoguang shook his head, "Some people have been lurking for decades, and no one knows their identities at all, but they are also dead, and they are simply cut to the roots." ” "In addition to being ruthless, he is also quite cautious" Zhao Pu asked Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, "Have you found any clues?"
The two of them talked about what had just happened.
"Demon Flame City" Zhao Pu frowned.
"Isn't that place a legend, it really exists," Zou Liang thought strange.
"You've all heard it," Zhanzhao asked Zhao Jiajun and the others.
"The people of the Western Regions have more or less heard of the legend of Demon Flame City."
Lin Yehuo said, "There are many legends in the Western Regions.
Demon Flame City was indeed built on Demon Flame Mountain, which is the largest volcano in the Western Regions.
Although the legend is miraculous, most people in the Western Regions tend to believe that the Demon Flame Mountain was destroyed by a volcanic eruption. ” "Huh."
Yin Hou couldn't help but laugh.
Everyone squinted at the old man.
"Don't listen to those myths, Demon Flame City is a fire to the ground."
Tianzun said, "And it's very stupid, it's not because of the volcano eruption, but because the Demon Flame City Lord went out to find a lover with his daughter-in-law on his back, and as a result, his daughter-in-law was jealous and set fire to the warehouse where the demon flame powder was hidden, and the entire Demon Flame City was blown up, and the top of the Demon Flame Mountain burned for three days and three nights, and the fire was too big and the smoke was billowing out, so many people thought it was a volcanic eruption." ” Everyone looked at Tianzun and Yin Hou in horror.
Yin Hou nodded and commented, "Therefore, as a man, you must know restraint, and if you have a strong woman in the family, don't go out to engage in three or four things, and as a result, the whole city will bury him and become the laughing stock of others." ” Everyone shook their heads.
Zhao Pu was very calm, "I've seen a lot of wars, and how many overlords have been destroyed in the hands of his daughter-in-law in recent years, so if you don't marry, you should treat others well, otherwise the city will be ruined and people will die." ” "How many people are there in Demon Flame City," Bai Yutang asked.
"About 60,000 people."
Zhao Pudao, "The city is not too big, but it is also difficult to conquer. ” Zhan Zhao frowned, "That is to say, more than 60,000 people were killed at once."
"Actually, not all of them were killed."
Yin Hou shook his head, "That's an exaggeration.
When the warehouse of the magic flame powder exploded, only half of the city was blown up, and the remaining half of the city was burned, and the iron ships were all on the dock in the east, and a large number of refugees fled to the iron boats to escape, it should be exiled to the Western Regions, probably there was the royal family in it. ” "Then the Demon Flame City is really surrounded by magma," Zhan Zhao asked.
Yin Hou smiled, "The principle is similar to your mother's red cherry village, there are red aquatic plants in the water of the red cherry village, so everyone thinks it is red cherry blossoms."
And Demon Flame City is built in the crater, the volcano has not erupted for hundreds of years, the bottom of the crater has a lot of red and black stones, plus the water of the entire crater is hot spring water, bubbling all the time, so there is a boiling feeling that the steaming from a distance looks like magma. ” Tianzun interjected, "To put it bluntly, it's just a jar of hot water, and the temperature is just right for soaking in the bath." ” Everyone nodded, and then "brushed", and collectively turned their heads to look at Yin Hou and Tianzun.
The second elder was startled by this uniform movement, and looked at a group of small ones.
"After talking for a long time," Zhan Zhao asked, "Won't it be the revenge you made a hundred years ago, and the descendants of others will come to take revenge?"
Yin Hou and Tianzun blinked, Yin Hou nodded, and Tianzun shook his head.

Zhan Zhao and the others stared at them.
The two of them glanced at each other, Tianzun nodded, and Yin Hou shook his head again.
The crowd looked to the sky.
Yin Hou pressed Tianzun's head to tell him not to make trouble, and said, "It's nothing to do with us" It doesn't matter if everyone raises their eyebrows, there are ghosts Yin Hou was helpless, and said, "The city lord of Demon Flame City, that is, their royal family, is quite tyrannical, and the people of the entire Western Regions hate them very much. ” Tianzun shook his head, "The city lord of Demon Flame City is brutal, we really want to destroy him, but Demon Flame City is very difficult to attack, so we can only outwit Demon Flame City, and the destruction of it is completely retribution, and the city lord is blamed for harming the wrong person." ” "What kind of person" everyone was curious.
"Where do you start?"
Yin Hou said, "I also heard the legend."
It is said that the lord of Demon Flame City once seized a people's daughter, who was only sixteen years old, and he killed the woman's entire family, snatched her into the palace, and rewarded a courtier as a concubine after the waste. ” The corners of everyone's mouths twitched at the emperor of this style Tianzun spread his hands, "It's all said that he is tyrannical" "This person, once he hates it to the extreme, he may give birth to wisdom, especially women, who have more or less potential in this regard."
Yin Hou said, "After that little girl suffered a great disaster in her life, she probably changed.
She relied on her youth and beauty to win the favor of her courtiers, and after she had money and power, she started planning a thing. ” "Revenge" everyone felt that things had gone in a wonderful direction.
Yin Hou also smiled, "Of course you want revenge, so you can get revenge without revenge, and the method of revenge is also quite high-end."
"She began to reach out to all the women who were going through the same situation as her, forming an alliance."
Tianzun continued to gossip to everyone after Yin Hou's words, "The Lord of Demon Flame City has done a lot of evil, and there are really a lot of women who have been bullied by him, from the palace maids around the queen, to the maids who serve dishes, to the minister's wives and daughters."
Everyone put on a disgusted face, and no one rebelled against such an emperor "The queen of the lord of the city was already jealous and irritable, and her servants drugged her food, making her more and more irritable.
At the same time, they invited a bewitching queen from the southwest to seduce the emperor, which caused a miasma in the palace, and finally caused this tragedy. ” "Although those women are pitiful, and revenge should be taken, but it is good to kill the royal family, and it is not good to affect tens of thousands of people in the city" Lin Yehuo shook his head disapprovingly.
Yin Hou smiled and asked Lin Yehuo, "Do you worship the fire demon ghost mother at the beginning of April?"
Lin Yehuo nodded, "Bye, do you worship in the Western Regions." ” "Why are you here" Zhan Zhao was curious, "Fire Demon Ghost Mother, it sounds like an evil god" "It's not an evil god, it's a beautiful woman, standing in the fire."
Lin Yehuo said, "This custom has always existed in the Western Regions, worshipping the fire demon ghost mother's house will not go out of the water, and it is said that the men in the family will also be honest and will not go out to mess with flowers and grass, otherwise the ghost mother will burn them to death." ” Tianzun smiled, "That vengeful girl is the legendary fire demon ghost mother." ” The crowd opened their mouths wide.
"At that time, the people who escaped from the city worshipped her, and the people of Demon Flame City were fed up, and they would rather die or flee than be slaves of the royal family anymore."
Yin Hou shook his head.
Zhao Pu sighed, "It's too much of a failure to be a king like this" "What about that flag just now," Zhan Zhao asked.
Tianzun spread his hands, "The Demon Flame Banner is the banner of the Demon Flame Royal. ” Zhanzhao's nose was wrinkled and almost turned into shrimp dumplings, "Is this Demon Flame City royal family proud of their ancestors, can't this flag have nothing to hang, even if it is a descendant, then change the flag and change the name, is it possible that you still want to continue the tyranny of your ancestors?"
"So it's a bad guy," Zhao Pu asked, "So sneak into the Central Plains Martial Arts to make trouble" Tianzun and Yin Hou crossed their arms and raised their faces, "The scale of Demon Flame City is really small, does it have such a big ability?"
"And what does the spider have to do with Demon Flame City," Bai Yutang asked.
Tianzun and Yin Hou both shook their heads, and they hadn't heard anything to do with it.
Everyone turned around to see the burning dock and the two "spies" who had died of poison on the ground.
Zhan Zhao sighed, and felt that someone had pinched his face.
When he looked up, he saw Yin Hou pinching his face and said, "Don't be sad, Jiu Niang is about to get married." ” Zhan Zhao rubbed his face and adjusted his expression "Suzhou Mansion shouldn't be able to find out anything, the clue is still in the Western Regions."
Bai Yutang said.
Zhao Pu nodded in agreement, "After eating the wedding wine, we will go north." ” :
