Chapter 23 Divine Fire

It's late again.

The moonlight is as clear as autumn water, sprinkled on the ground, as if it had been covered with a layer of frost.

On Dongting Lake, the lake wind roared, sweeping up the water and rolling waves, slapping the shore of the lake over and over again.

Liang Xiangling stood on the shore, with a pair of bright eyes looking deeply at the lake in the distance, but she was not looking at the scenery, but was dull, as if thinking about some people and recalling something.

The lake wind was awept, brushing up her snow-like white dress, hunting and dancing in the wind, and her soft hair was also swept up by the lake wind, brushing her white face, fluttering, as if there was a faint fragrance, which was blown away by the wind and filled the air.

Liang Xiangling stood on the shore of the lake for a while, and somehow began to walk slowly along the shore again. There was no destination, as if she just wanted to kill time, let the night fade, waiting for the moment when the morning sun rose.

"No wonder I can't find you in your room. It turned out that I came here to see the scenery!" A soft woman's voice came from behind. It was Mei Xiangxue. She was also dressed in white, and her skirt danced under the light color, which was extremely beautiful.

Mei Xiangxue walked to Liang Xiangling's side, looked at her strangely, and said, "I thought you went to meet the young master of Yanshan!"

Liang Xiangling glanced at her, sighed for her, and gently shook her head and said, "During your injury, I stayed by your side almost all the time to look at you. When did you see me meet others? Your injury is just right. It's not appropriate to get out of bed and walk. You should lie down and rest more.

"I miss you!" Mei Xiangxue said casually, then walked to Liang Xiangling and said with a smile, "If I can't see you for a while, I miss you very much, so I came to you."

Mei Xiangxue said this joke and put her hand on Liang Xiangling's shoulder, which was quite playful and said with a smile, "Since you said that I was just injured and it was not suitable to get out of bed and walk, why don't you lend me your shoulder against it? Or you can carry me behind my back!"

Liang Xiangling frowned slightly. Unexpectedly, this cold woman would also say such a joke. She shook her head to refuse and said with a bitter smile, "I'm not a man, and my shoulder is not as broad as a man's shoulder. It's very uncomfortable to lean on, so I won't lend it to you?"

Mei Xiangxue didn't care about her words. She hung her head on Liang Xiangling's shoulder, put her hand around her slender waist, and smiled, "But it's very soft! It's very comfortable!" Instead, he shook his head and sighed, "Why aren't you a man? If you are a man, I will marry you immediately."

Liang Xiangling frowned a little more, couldn't help laughing a few times, and sighed, "There are so many men in the Taiqing Palace. What do you want to marry? If you really want a man, just find one!"

"They are not as good as you! You will be considerate without you." Mei Xiangxue finally moved her head away from Liang Xiangling's shoulder and said seriously, "Thank you for taking care of me during my injury. Thank you! Sister!"

Liang Xiangling shook her head and said with a smile, "It's nothing to thank. It's late. Let's go back."

Meixue disagreed and shook her head and refused, "You are nothing more than lying in the room in a daze when you go back. Why do you always like to stay alone? I'll take a walk with you. Don't be alone with aggrieved and sad faces. Our monks should be dedicated to the Tao. There is nothing we can't let go of in the world.

She looked at Liang Xiangling's pale face and asked softly, "Can't you let him go?"

Liang Xiangling was stunned and immediately said, "How can I miss him! I'm just thinking about my master and brother, and I don't know where they are?" He sighed and said, "All right! Anyway, I can't sleep. Let's just walk around here.

Meixue nodded with a smile and held Liang Xiangling's hand tightly. The two walked slowly and walked along the shore of the lake.

The two women held hands on the shore of the lake and walked against the wind. They said a few words casually, as if they could not find the topic. Liang Xiangling gradually changed back to her previous expression, her eyes were dull, and she stopped talking.

Mei Xiangxue waited for a long time and couldn't hear Liang Xiangling's words. She glanced at her and hesitated. Suddenly, she stopped. She grabbed Liang Xiangling's hand and stopped and asked, "I want to ask you a question."

Liang Xiangling then shifted her attention to Mei Xiangxue. She couldn't think of any questions she could ask, so she said, "What should I ask? Ask!"

Mei Xiangxue hesitated again and said for a long time, "How do you and Xiao Yi know each other? How did it get better?"

When Liang Xiangling asked this question, her heart subconsciously jumped and looked at Mei Xiangxue, with a strange light flashing in her bright eyes.

Mei Xiangxue looked at her expression, frowned, pinched the flesh of her wrist fiercely, and said anly, "What's your expression! What else is hard to say now? I thought I wanted to kill you! My good sister?"

Liang Xiangling was stunned for a moment and actually giggled.

The remaining moon is in the sky, quietly scattering cold light, like frost and snow, lingering around the earth.

In the clear moonlight, two women in white were talking, talking and laughing, holding hands and walking leisurely, looking like sisters.

"Xiao Yi's bastard is a flower-hearted radish, and now he is living in the magic religion. He has forgotten us long ago. The next time you see him, you must slap him fiercely!"

"I haven't hit a man, you can do it for me..."

“......”

Happy laughter echoed in the night, drifting away with the wind for a long time.

It turns out that you have let go of someone and some persistence, and you can really be so happy!

You don't have to insist on pursuing short-term happiness or permanent happiness, at least, you have never been depressed now!

Unconsciously, the two had gone a long way and came to a stone forest full of rocks. Both of them felt a little tired. They found a clean and smooth stone and snuggled together and sat down.

Liang Xiangling looked into the depths of the stone forest and saw that the stone cone stood in this stone forest, which was gloomy and strange. The road tossed and turned, like a maze. In the depths, it was dark, as if there were gusts of wind blowing out of the darkness, which was quite gloomy and horrible.

Liang Xiangling looked a few times and was a little disgusted with the gloomy. He wanted to leave here immediately, so he said to Mei Xiangxue, "Sister, I think this Shilin is gloomy, but it's a little terrible. Why don't we go back?"

Mei Xiangxue looked deep into the stone forest and looked at the gloomy and dark place, and felt the same way. She nodded and said, "Okay! In case there is anything in it..."

At this point, I suddenly heard several bursting sounds above my head, and the sound of "whissing" was endless. Liang Xiangling and Mei Xiangxue looked up together and saw dozens of rays flashing in mid-air and falling in the dark place ahead. With the light of those people's magic weapons, you can see that those people are wearing the costumes of the Holy Dragon Sect, and they are the people of the Demon Sect.

The two looked at each other and were surprised, but they are both intelligent and careful women. They know that there are many people in the magic religion, and there must be many masters. The two of them are also dressed in white and are more conspicuous in the night. If they escape rashly at this moment, it is very likely to cause people in the magic religion to be noticed.

Liang and Mei looked at each other, made up their minds, and immediately hid in the cracks of a huge stone pillar next to them and dive into the endless darkness.

Liang Xiangling and Mei Xiangxue hid in the dark and did not dare to come out. They lay motionless and only secretly looked outside. With the light of the magic weapons of those demons, they saw that those people were divided into three teams, which were the three branch figures of the Holy Dragon Sect gathered here.

Liang Xiangling has studied art in Sanqing for more than ten years, and has never gone down the mountain to exorcism. She has little experience and knows little about the characters of the demon religion. However, Mei Xiangxue's experience is quite rich, and she can faintly identify several famous magic figures.

The leader of Yinglongtang is Yang Zhong, the leader of the hall. In addition to the leader Zhu Meng, there are two women standing next to him, a beautiful young woman, dressed in light blue, quiet and dignified. It is Yang Zhong's wife Su Qiurong.

The other is a girl, dressed in a tender yellow dress and covered with a white scarf. She can't see her appearance, but her bright eyes are as cold as cold light. According to her figure, she is about 16 years old.

Other characters of the Magic Sect include Fu Yue, the owner of Wolong Hall, and Lu Qian, the owner of Jiaolong Hall. The rest of the people are more face-to-faced, and Mei Xiangxue can't recognize them one by one.

At this time, I saw Fu Yue hugging Yang Zhong and Lu Qian and salute them, and said with a smile, "The two brothers can come together to meet the appointment of the Holy Order in time. I'm really happy to teach Fu!"

Yang Zhong and Lu Qian returned the salute together and said, "It is incumbent on us to serve the Holy King!"

Lu Qian, the owner of Jiaolongtang Hall, is a middle-aged man with handsome eyebrows, slender figure, wearing a white robe and a strong smell of books. He stood with Yang Zhong, half a head short of him.

Fu Yue nodded and said slowly, "You are all loyal and good men. There is no need to say more about this. At present, my Holy Dragon Religion has turned to Xiaoxiang, and there are two things to do. In the future, the source of divine fire will be born in Hengshan, Nanyue, Xiaoxiang. We must seize the source of divine fire. In addition, the Holy King and the four holy envoys have also come to Xiaoxiang and are busy arranging exploration. Our first task is to block those righteous people and strive for time for the Holy King to explore.

The second thing is to destroy the gate valves of Xiaoxiang. The first goal is the four gate valves of Dongting Lake: Junzi Hall, Tingyu Hall, Changsheng Hall, and Jiujian Hall. Of course, the importance of this matter is less than the first thing. Please stand by the two brothers and be ready at any time!"

Yang Zhong and Lu Qian answered, "For the saint, you must be covered with your liver and brain!"

Although it was a heroic speech, it sounded full of pride and loyalty, but Su Qiurong beside her looked sad. Looking at her husband Yang Zhong from afar, she sighed low, took the yellow-shirted girl next to her in her arms and closed her eyes and said anything.

Liang Xiangling heard their words and whispered to Mei Xiangxue, "What is the source of divine fire?"

Mei Xiangxue frowned and thought for a while and said, "It seems that I heard what the master said, but it took too long and I don't remember it clearly. Anyway, it's not a mortal fire, a 'divine fire'! As the name implies, it is the fire of the divine world, which can burn everything in the world.
