Monument of Life and Death

  Chapter 1116 Burning

  Xiao Lan stared back at those eyes dumbfounded.

"you…"

  Xiao Lan restrained the trembling of the soles of her feet, and stood up straight.

   "Who the **** are you?!"

The moment Xiaolan's screams stopped suddenly, there was a loud noise of glass shattering from all directions in the world. Xiaolan subconsciously blocked her eyes, but what swept over was not the imaginary glass shards. The stinging pain of breaking the skin, but a maddening scorching heat.

  Xiao Lan moved her hands away and opened her eyes.

  The surrounding environment has completely changed.

  I seem to be supported on a cloud, floating in mid-air in a state similar to suspension, the world in front of me is still black, but this blackness is completely different from just now...

   It took quite a while for Xiaolan to react.

   woke up by myself.

Xiaolan scratched her head, although she was dizzy, she still tried her best to figure out her current state. At this moment, a bright orange flame pierced the darkness, passing by Xiaolan's right hand, and disappeared not far away night sky.

   No longer dizzy, fully awake.

  Xiaolan stared at the place where the flame disappeared.

  How... will there be fire?

  The flame just now was jetted up from below, so... it came from below me.

  Xiaolan turned her head and looked towards the world below her.

A small person was standing on the ground far away from him, raised his hand to face him, before he could see her face clearly, another flame shot out from the palm of that person, and hit him directly. Come.

  Xiaolan squeaked and screamed, fluttering in mid-air to avoid the flames.

  Someone is setting themselves on fire below!

   What surprised Xiaolan even more was that that person seemed to be Jasmine!

  ***

   "Xiaolan seems to have woken up!"

  Jasmine was sweating profusely, and shouted while mobilizing the scout.

   "Are you awake?" Qin Yin's eyes finally lit up, "Is Xiao Lan okay? You didn't get hurt?"

   "I don't know... I still can't see clearly," Jasmine said with a serious expression, not daring to relax a bit, "Those silk threads have not been completely burned, and Xiao Lan is still being pulled by some silk threads, suspended in mid-air."

   "The fire didn't reach Xiaolan, did it?" Yi Yao asked.

  Jasmine frowned, and seemed to narrow her eyes to observe for a while before replying, "Probably not."

   "What do you mean there should be no?" Qin Yin sniffed.

   "Generally speaking, Xiaolan is an entity, and this fire shouldn't affect Xiaolan," Jasmine said, "But judging by Xiaolan's expression... it seems that she has been greatly impacted."

  ***

  Xiaolan felt that she had been greatly impacted.

  Jasmine, roasting herself with fire...

  Xiao Lan really wanted to jump directly to the ground to question Jasmine, but that strange force kept holding her in mid-air, and no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't fall to the ground.

   Gradually, Xiao Lan began to doubt her eyes.

  Is the one below really Jasmine?

   Not sure, take another look.

  Xiaolan rubbed her eyes and looked intently.

that is! that is!

  I will not admit my mistake!

  Xiao Lan's head was about to turn into smoke, and she still couldn't figure out why Jasmine set herself on fire.

   It’s been so long since I’ve seen you, is this how Jasmine welcomes herself?

  Jasmine had no expression on her face, and her eyes were like a pair of searchlights, tightly locked on Xiaolan's body.

etc.

   Xiaolan suddenly recalled.

   Isn’t Jasmine blind?

  Why does it look like now...she seems to be able to see herself.

  Xiao Lan tilted her head and tried to wave to Jasmine below.

  That Jasmine seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and after a while, she also tilted her head and waved her hand at Xiaolan.

   Then, another flame burst out.

  She can really see!

  ***

  Jasmine tilted her head and made a gesture of waving her hands.

   "It's weird," Jasmine complained, but she didn't stop breathing, "What is Xiaolan doing?"

   "What's Xiaolan doing?" Qin Yin wished he could become Tanshi Jasmine, "What are you doing?"

   "Xiao Lan is waving at me," Jasmine asked, "Is this some kind of code?"

   "This means that Xiaolan recognized you," Luo Jiutian said, "It's okay, at least it means that Xiaolan's mind is still clear."

  ***

  Xiaolan is almost delirious.

  Jasmine can see...Jasmine even set herself on fire...

  Compared to her flesh and blood, Xiaolan felt that her CPU might be burned dry first.

  Xiaolan decided to give up struggling, lay alone in mid-air, and think carefully about life.

   After thinking for a while, she found that those fires seemed to be unable to burn herself.

  Xiaolan lay flat, flames kept appearing around her, but none of them fell on her.

   Could it be that Jasmine was not the one who burned herself?

  Xiaolan sat up and looked around with eyes that she thought she was very smart.

   Could it be that what Jasmine burned was something next to her?

   Around oneself, there are things.

  Xiao Lan pressed down on her body with her hand.

   Very strange touch.

  There is nothing under him, just like the air turned into soft white clouds, which cannot be touched, but the buoyancy does exist.

   Xiaolan sighed.

  I should study for a few more years, at least finish the chapter on gravity.

  Xiao Lan looked at Jasmine, and thought for a while.

  If Jasmine set fire to the things around her in order to let herself go down, then the strange buoyancy around her is the key.

   And the space around him has almost been burned by Jasmine, and he still can't go down.

  If you say it like this... Could it be that the problem lies in...

  Xiaolan stood up, her feet were soft, and she was not stable. It was the first time for Xiaolan to stand upright in mid-air. When she looked down, she felt dizzy.

   I can't help being afraid of heights.

  Xiao Lan's legs trembled a little, but she still stretched out her hand towards the void under her feet.

   Jasmine below seems to have guessed her purpose.

  Jasmine nodded, and also extended her hand.

  The palms of the two people aimed at the same position.

   Xiaolan's feet.

  Xiaolan felt it for a while, and soon, the burning sensation of the flame gushed out from her palm, and at the same time, Jasmine's flame also arrived.

  Two flames collided, connected, and entwined under Xiaolan's feet.

  ***

   "Xiaolan has learned it." The sweat dripped down Jasmine's forehead, and she gritted her teeth and said without wiping off the sweat.

   "Learn what?" Luo Jiutian asked.

   "Xiao Lan and I thought of this at the same time," Jasmine said, "The problem lies at her feet."

"…so what?"

   "Xiao Lan has learned the flame of the detection, and now, she is lighting the last thread with my detection." Jasmine's breathing gradually became quicker, "It's almost... soon..."

  Jasmine’s tense state lasted for a long, long time.

  Finally, just on the verge of Jasmine's collapse, everyone felt a rush of scorching heat coming from the front. Jasmine let out a long breath and sat limply on the ground.
