Chapter 187 Fire

Chapter 180 Five

Roach had a hunch that something was coming from the flames, and the fire was encircled within a few minutes, and the deserted village would be burned to nothingness.There was an enchantment outside the barren village, and the fire did not spread outward. Du Zhengyi controlled the high-temperature flame that could melt even steel to burn inward.The deserted village has turned into a giant steel-making furnace, and Roach suspects that there will not be even a single brick left in the end.

"Will you burn a big hole in the village in the end?" Roach waited for a while, but he couldn't hold back his words until the person or thing who strangled the old soul came out.

Du Zhengyi frowned as he looked into the depths of the fire, and Roach began to have that feeling again, that Du Zhengyi could see things he couldn't see.He has already tested it with his consciousness shallowly, and there is no consciousness in the fire scene. "Is it a mythical beast?" Luo Qi asked anxiously, "Qongqi? Or Pixiu?"

"It's a divine beast, with two ends." Du Zhengyi whispered.

Roach became nervous, the fire field was already shrinking, and the fire was burning fiercely in the center of the village. Roach thought it was his own illusion, and he vaguely saw the shadow of a human figure in the fire.

The flames soared into the sky, the mountains were silent, and for a moment, Roach had an illusion, as if human beings had never appeared, and it was like this forever.There are only mages, and the world of mage Guiqi.

A figure appeared in the depths of the fire, and Luo Qi began to think that Du Zhengyi had finally made a mistake, and then a second figure appeared in the fire, and Luo Qi finally understood what Du Zhengyi meant.

Roach saw a red umbrella in the light of the fire, and a man was holding the umbrella. The hot flames seemed to be water, separated by the red umbrella, and sparks fell on the umbrella.The man with the umbrella was about middle age, his face was still young, but his face was sculpted by pain, his figure was thin but strong, his steps were smooth, but Roach saw the cane he held in his left hand.

The cane distracted Roach, and as if he had been shot, he stared blankly at the dim cane, as if it were the scythe that Reaper used to reap death.The man looked at him with a distant look, as if he hadn't seen him at all.Luo Qi understood what he meant, he didn't have enough to see, his chest was churning with bitterness.

Roach is not an arrogant person, but lately he has come to think that he is born to be a mind master.Until today, until now, he has been taught a hard lesson.Roach didn't feel the existence of these two consciousnesses at all. Du Zhengyi discovered their magic traces, and in his field of vision, his eyes were covered by someone.

The man's eyes turned to the person under his umbrella, and Roach turned to that person from his sluggishness.It was a young man, wearing a full suit, and the suit was still intact when he walked in the fire. Roach only noticed that he had a pair of unusually bright eyes at first sight, and then he was attracted by his clothes.His dark suits were well made, the collars of his shirts had tie pins shining, and his tie even had old-fashioned, slightly ornate pins.

Compared with the maturity and stability forged by the pain of the man holding the umbrella for him, the man walking under the umbrella looks so young and lively, quick in action, full of energy, and only smug and happy in his expression.He even smiled at Roach and Du Zhengyi like an old friend. Du Zhengyi must have ignored him at all, and he blinked his right eye at Roach with a slight complaint, as if he was sure that Roach would appreciate him Humor and decent manners.

But at a closer distance, Roach could see that he was not as young as he appeared on the surface, and there were thin lines under his eyes when he smiled.At the same close distance, Roach also saw silver cufflinks on his sleeves.

He is in an excellent state of mind, wishing for the wind under his feet, and his gestures are elegant and powerful, as if he were a natural leader.

He stretched out his hand to Du Zhengyi from a distance, full of sincerity.

Du Zhengyi put his hands in his trouser pockets leisurely, making it clear that he didn't intend to shake hands.Roach looked back and forth in surprise, and asked in a low voice, "Do you know each other?"

"No." Du Zhengyi said leisurely, "I have only seen similar scenes."

"Where is it?" Roach asked nervously.

"One year I was in Kyoto." Du Zhengyi said, "I saw a night parade imitating a geisha going out on the street."

Luo Qi didn't know if he could still laugh, but the other party raised his head to look at the red umbrella above his head, and laughed out loud. "Sorry, all the umbrellas at home have been taken out, and this is the only one left."

Luo Qi knew that he was joking, and he looked at the cold-faced man holding the umbrella with fear. The pain on his face never faded, as if the pain had been deeply rooted in his bone marrow.They had already walked out of the fire scene. He raised his head and put away the red oil-paper umbrella that could be regarded as an antique, and threw it into the fire behind him. The umbrella instantly disappeared in the fire.

Roach took a breath, and the man in the suit smiled again, as if everything was under his eyes and under his control.He must be used to being a leader. There is a kind of lazy self-confidence running through his body, but he also has a capable and practical style. Roach vaguely thinks that his power should not come entirely from inheritance.

The man smiled, with the complacency of seeing through the other party.Since Du Zhengyi refused to shake hands, he bowed slightly—Roach thought of Benedict, not the one from Sherlock Holmes, but the one on Shakespeare's stage.But then what he said clearly swept across the valley like thunder, "Du Zhengyi, young and promising, I have admired him for a long time." He nodded to Du Zheng, then gracefully turned to Luo Qi, nodding in the same way, " And Roach, the latest kid to join the Legendary Mage Club, your abilities are even praised by my friend the clownfish..."

Roach opened his mouth wide under the scarf outdoors, and he stared blankly at the man, amused by his stupidity.

He looked at Roach lovingly, and teased, "Take off the mask, isn't it hot wearing that thing? The temperature of the flame here is [-] degrees."

Roach shook his head and said seriously, "The ash on the fire site is too large, and most of the victims of the fire choked to death, don't you know?"

The man laughed out loud, as if he really liked Roach's earnest pretending to be stupid.Beside him, the man who scared Roach even more turned his eyes and took a deep look at him.

Luo Qi avoided the man's sight, and Du Zhengyi suddenly spoke next to him, "As the leader of the Lotus Burners, you are so young and frightening."

The man in the suit looked at Du Zhengyi with pleasant eyes and a gentle expression, as if he met a friend of equal weight in a social arena. "My surname is Zhao." He said energetically.

"Big surname." Roach couldn't help but say.
