Five Hundred and Sixtieth IX Fallen Leaves Return to Roots

"Life and death are inseparable, people are surrounded by flames, boundless flames make tears, endless flames roll..."

Sun Hao physically flew into the air and flew straight to Jiyan Mountain. While flying, he tried to figure out the prediction of Xuanyuan Hong's majestic spirit technique to gain advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Sun Hao will be in great danger, but there is also a chance of survival.

Xuanyuanhong was very worried about Sun Hao. At first, she refused to allow Sun Hao to go to Jiyan Mountain. Later, Sun Hao's attitude was firm. words, and fell into a deep sleep.

Although Laojun's mighty spirit art is miraculous, it is often a riddle. It is difficult for monks to comprehend its mysteries until the critical moment.

Sun Hao's speed of advanced Jindan was much faster than that of the foundation stage. For more than 20 days, Sun Hao had already seen the soot-filled Jiyan Mountain from a distance, and felt the surrounding temperature rose a lot.

This is the second time for Sun Hao to come to Jiyan Mountain, and the destination is the depths of Jiyan Mountain that he never set foot in last time.

Only in such a place can it be possible to find Yangling, that is, Yangjing and Lihuo.

After Sun Hao landed on the outskirts of Jiyan Mountain, he didn't stop much along the way. He followed the route he traveled last time and moved forward rapidly. After more than 20 years, Jiyan Mountain remained the same without much change. Compared with the last time, Sun Hao is much faster.

Soon, without any accident, Sun Hao passed through the area of ​​the five lotus ponds and entered the area of ​​"Boundless Fierce Fire".

In the boundless fire, Sun Hao's speed dropped slightly.

With Sun Hao's current cultivation base, even if he doesn't stand up to the shield, he can still move in the boundless fire. The reason for his slowing down is not because of the influence of the environment, but because of the faint memories in his heart, and the surge of bursts. Reluctant.

Back then, it was in this boundless fire area that Sun Hao met Xiao Huo, the clever and cute Xiao Huo.

At that time, Xiaohuo was clever and nimble. After being rescued by Sun Hao, he has been by Sun Hao's side all the time.

Sun Hao teleported to the Island of Ten Thousand Souls. When he was seriously injured and unable to move, it was Xiaohuo, the inconspicuous little guy, who pulled him back from the gate of hell.

More than ten years followed. Xiaohuo is getting old gradually, and his life essence is exhausted. Now, he has been in a semi-drowsy state for a long time, and this time he fell into a deep sleep for a long time. Hasn't been out for months.

If it wasn't for the unique space attribute in the spirit beast bag, Xiaohuo might have died long ago.

Even so, the current Xiaohuo is already dying.

Every time Xiaohuo wakes up from a deep sleep, Sun Hao will accompany her for a while. Every time, Sun Hao can see in Xiaohuo's cloudy and dull eyes, the memory of her for him, and also see her far away. Looking at the direction of Jiyan Mountain. Have a deep memory.

Sun Hao walked all the way, the speed was not slow, and soon he came to the magma where Xiao Huo was chased and killed by the fire centipede, Sun Hao's heart moved, and he took Xiao Huo out of the spirit beast bag.

Xiao Huo dazedly opened his cloudy eyes, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, he regained some agility, stood on top of Sun Hao's palms, and looked left and right. A little excitedly looking at the surrounding environment.

This is the area she was born and raised in, the area she has lived in for an unknown number of years, the area she is extremely familiar with, right now. She also discerned that this was the place where she met Sun Hao back then.

A trace of nostalgia flashed across the small face, and he jumped from Sun Hao's hand with all his strength and fell into the magma.

Struggling to swim in the magma for a while, it seems to have regained a little spirit. Leaping out of the magma, he ran towards Sun Hao. On the way, he rolled all the way, as if he was chased and killed by a fire centipede, rolling to Sun Hao with a pair of pitiful eyes.

Sun Hao smiled knowingly and stood up, just like back then, standing in front of Xiao Huo.

Back then, Sun Hao was like this, saving Xiao Huo from Huo Centipede's mouth.

Xiaohuo squeaked, and then jumped up to Sun Hao's shoulder with all his strength, but, just a little bit short, Xiaohuo failed to climb up, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, Xiaohuo fell to the ground, Sun Hao stretched out his hand After a little cushion, Xiao Huo turned over and landed on Sun Hao's shoulder.

The scene is still the same, but Xiaohuo is already old. Today's Xiaohuo, his skin is no longer shiny, his eyes are cloudy, his limbs are clumsy, his reaction is slow, but he has lost the cleverness of then.

Along the way, warm memories flashed in Xiao Huo's eyes from time to time. At that time, Sun Hao had not yet accepted Xiao Huo. Revisiting the old scene, however, after leaving Sun Hao, she could no longer run, and could no longer keep up with Sun Hao's pace.

Standing on Sun Hao's shoulders, Xiao Huo's eyes were full of warm nostalgia and deep helplessness.

In Sun Hao's heart, there is still deep helplessness.

When he accepted Xiaohuo back then, Sun Hao had already thought about this moment, Xiaohuo's talent was limited, and it would be a matter of time before he fell behind. However, Sun Hao did not expect that this moment would come so early.

Sun Hao didn't expect that when this moment came, he would feel so uncomfortable, so reluctant, so unwilling.

Yesterday is still vivid in my mind, although Xiaohuo is weak, but the weak Xiaohuo has the touch that Sun Hao can't let go.

Over the years, Xiaohuo has been moved by loneliness, by the grace of saving lives, and by little people who have made great contributions in obscurity.

Xiao Huo was getting old, but he was helpless, Sun Hao felt really helpless.

Sun Hao, who is wise and transparent, knows very well that in the future, in a situation like Xiaohuo, he may not experience less. Sun Hao cultivates extremely fast, and few monks around him can keep up with Sun Hao's footsteps Perhaps, just like Xiao Huo, Sun Hao will often see things that fell in front of Sun Hao when he got old in the end.

From Xiaohuo, Sun Hao seemed to see Lao Jia, Lao Li, even the sisters of the Xia family, and even Master Ziyan, etc. One day, would they be like Xiaohuo, exhausting their lifespan in front of him, and helplessly Land, helpless?

One person and one mouse, with warmth and reluctance, walked silently through the boundless fire.

Soon, they came to Tianbo's cave, which was Xiaohuo's hometown.

Sun Hao opened the protective formation on the basalt stone, and walked into the cave with a small fire.

The cave has been dusty for a long time, there is no small fire activity, and the inside has been covered with thick volcanic ash.

Entering the cave, Xiaohuo regained some energy, jumped off Sun Hao's shoulders, staggered, and began to walk around in the cave, as if he was a wanderer returning home, wandering around in the small cave. linger.

Sun Hao sighed in his heart, resisted his reluctance, and slowly retreated out of the cave.

Xiao Huo didn't seem to notice that Sun Hao had left, and was still walking slowly in the cave.

Stepping out of the cave, Sun Hao stood outside the cave, as if holding a breath in his chest, very uncomfortable, stood at the entrance of the cave for a long time, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, looked into the cave, and slowly walked into the Jiyan Mountain Go forward again.

Xiaohuo's lifespan is short, the so-called Ye Luo returns to her roots, at this time, letting her spend her last time in this cave and leaving safely may be her best destination.

Along the way, tears slowly appeared in the corners of Sun Hao's eyes.

It was the first time that he had experienced the life and death of those close to him during his practice. Even though his Dao heart was extremely strong, Sun Hao at this time was still heartbroken and extremely sad.

In the distance, Sun Hao walked into the depths of the boundless fire, and saw the flaming purgatory.

Coming here, tears welled up in Sun Hao's eyes. Back then, in this position, I couldn't help but look back, and then I finally made up my mind and took Xiao Huo.

In this area, there are decades, decades of life and death companionship, decades of mutual dependence, and a fate of life and death.

Today, I am also here, but I have to experience life and death, how can I not feel sad in my heart?

Dazed, Sun Hao stood on the ground, and after a long time, just like before, he turned around.

Perhaps, Xiao Huo will be the same as back then, looking at him from afar, wishing that he would take her away.

Looking back, there was nothing on the basalt.

Although she had expected it in her heart, Sun Hao couldn't help feeling a deep sense of disappointment. It seemed that Xiao Huo herself had chosen to spend her few remaining years of life in this Jiyan Mountain and her hometown.

I said in my heart: "Xiao Huo take care, Xiao Huo goodbye."

With a sigh, Sun Hao wiped away his tears, turned around slowly, took a step, and walked into the flame purgatory. (~^~)
