Chapter 196: Sudden Fire
In the afternoon, the sun gently shone on the earth, making the people on the ground lazy and sleepy.
Leng Yan was in the bamboo forest, as always, playing his favorite piano music every day, looking around after each song, Shen Zhuxi, who had often overheard him playing before, was not there at the moment.
A slight sense of loss inadvertently swept Leng Yan's heart, but it was also fleeting, Leng Yan raised his hand and began to play the next song.
Uncle Leng also presided over the house deep in the bamboo forest without any past, and always felt that today's time passed very slowly, as if it was heralding something, and it seemed that every day was so leisurely and long.
That night, Leng Yan had dinner, went back to the room, packed up a set of pajamas, and prepared to take a bath and sleep, always feeling that when he woke up, he would see the things he was looking forward to, and the feeling of anticipation had disappeared from Leng Yan's thoughts for many years.
It wasn't until Shen Zhuxi bluntly broke into his life and got used to her rash intrusion a little that she disappeared again, and the only thing that changed was this expectation, which never changed.
Uncle Leng finally checked all the switches, this is his habit before going to bed, for so many years, every day, with care to ensure that there will be no emergency.
When Gu Xuanyuan drove to the bamboo forest, it was still evening, standing at the intersection, and he couldn't see anyone here, but the melodious piano music told him that the people here lived a happy life.
Coldly peeking inside, the huge courtyard is surrounded by a continuous bamboo forest, and in the distance is a large blooming garden, and the melodious sound of the piano comes from the back of the garden.
Unconsciously, Gu Xuanyuan's mind had already made up for Shen Zhuxi and Leng Yan's leisurely days here, and the more warm and peaceful the picture of the brain supplement, the more fierce Gu Xuanyuan's anger burned.
"Hmph. Gu Xuanyuan coldly took one last look at the peaceful scene above him, and then left the bamboo forest path quickly.
In the early hours of the morning, Gu Xuanyuan drove to the bamboo forest with another car, and the car in front of him was driven by his subordinates.
At the intersection of the bamboo forest intersection, his subordinates hurriedly got out of the car and stood in front of Gu Xuanyuan, waiting for Gu Xuanyuan's orders.
"When it's done, leave and don't let anyone find out. Gu Xuanyuan said coldly.
The two subordinates nodded slightly, and quickly walked from the trunk of the car, carrying a large bucket in one hand, and walked quickly towards the bamboo forest.
At 12 o'clock in the night, Leng Yan glanced at the time, then hurriedly put down the book he was reading, urging himself to fall asleep on time.
The malice outside, Leng Yan has been indisputable to the world for many years, and he can't detect any abnormalities at this moment.
Gu Xuanyuan's two subordinates quietly got into the hidden house in the bamboo forest, poured the liquid in the bucket along the building, and finally lit the liquid with the lighter in their hands without hesitation.
The flames, fierce and relentless, spread rapidly, the bamboo house was the first to be engulfed by the flames, and after a few minutes, the bamboo forest also became combustible, and the flames made the bamboo crackle from burning.
After the two arsonists saw the rapid spread of the fire, they quickly fled from the bamboo forest, Gu Xuanyuan had already smelled the smell of fireworks from a distance, and when he saw the two subordinates running out, he hurriedly beckoned them to leave, and Gu Xuanyuan had to wait a little longer.
Since the last time Gu Huaizuo escaped from the exploded scrap mill, Gu Xuanyuan's mind was a little more thoughtful again, he wanted to make sure that no one in it survived, and after confirming, he was willing to leave with confidence.
The flames engulfed the courtyard as well, but in the bedrooms, the sleeping people were still asleep.
"Ahem!" Leng Yan was in his sleep, and suddenly choked on the smell of choking.
The first scene he saw when he opened his eyes was the blood-red firelight, Leng Yan was startled, and when he wanted to get up and flee quickly, he found that his head was about to crack in pain.
Guessing that it should be the lack of oxygen in the brain caused by the thick smoke, Leng Yan decisively supported his heavy body, and when he pushed the door open, the tongue of fire reacted faster than him, and the moment the door opened, it kissed Leng Yan violently like the blood-red tongue of a huge beast.
The flames roasted the room that had not yet burned, Leng Yan endured the high temperature, and rushed out of the bedroom with the flames, he did not choose to leave immediately, but rushed to the room where Uncle Leng was, and slammed the door with a punch.
"Ahem, cough, young master, go quickly!" Inside, Uncle Leng seemed to have woken up a long time ago, but his room was closer to the outside, and the glass of the window had exploded by itself due to the high temperature of the fire, Uncle Leng was trying to extinguish the fire in the window, and then fled from the window, hearing the sound of the hammer door, he knew that it should be the young master.
"Open the door quickly!Let's go out together!Hurry up!Cough cough!" Leng Yan shouted calmly.
Uncle Leng subconsciously obeyed, and as soon as the door opened, the flames in Uncle Leng's door caught the oxygen pouring in from the opening of the door, and the tongue of fire attacked Leng Yan fiercely again, and Leng Yan's silky pajamas were suddenly burned out of several holes by the fire.
Leng Yan didn't have time to dodge this tongue of fire, so he only subconsciously grabbed Uncle Leng's sleeve, dragged him and rushed outside with the flames.
It's just that this fire is so fierce that there is no mercy, and the two can only step on the fire in pain and rush to the bamboo forest path step by step.
"They ......"
"It's too late!
Uncle Leng's words were interrupted by Leng Yan's quick reason, it was already a great luck to be able to escape two people from the fire at the moment, and if he thought about saving people, he would only have no survivors. 666 Literature Network
"Poof", Uncle Leng lost his strength under his feet, and suddenly fell to the ground, Leng Yan had time to look back at Uncle Leng, and by the light of the fire, he saw that Uncle Leng's feet had been burned by the fire.
"You go quickly, I can't do it...... Ahem, ahem. "Uncle Leng knows that his injuries are too serious, and if he continues to follow the young master, he will only drag him down and he will not be able to escape, surrounded by bamboo forests, and this path is extremely long and narrow, he is old, and his physical strength has long been overdrawn.
"Uncle Leng, you wait for me here, I'll go out and find someone to save you!" Leng Yan had imperceptible tears in his eyes, and he fled quickly with sadness and decisiveness.
Uncle Leng looked at the raging fire that was spreading behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that the young master had already run away quickly, he smiled desperately and reassuringly, and watched Leng Yan's figure disappear quickly......
Gu Xuanyuan saw that the fire had burned through the sky, presumably soon, the people living around would notice the fire here, just when Gu Xuanyuan thought it was foolproof and decided to get in the car, the bamboo forest path behind him suddenly heard the sound of rustling.
Looking back, Gu Xuanyuan saw that it was Leng Yan who staggered out.
"Heh, it's really hard. Gu Xuanyuan sneered coldly, and then walked leisurely in front of Leng Yan.
Leng Yan only cares about leaving the bamboo forest quickly, as long as he can find someone to extinguish the fire as soon as possible, he can rescue Uncle Leng!
When he heard footsteps in front of him, Leng Yan, who was dizzy, didn't have time to tell who was in front of him, and immediately shouted to the person in front of him: "Help me call the police! There are still people inside!"
"Bang!"
Gu Xuanyuan stepped forward quickly, ignoring Leng Yan's words at all, he only raised his foot without hesitation, and kicked Leng Yan's chin with a fierce kick, the sudden attack caught Leng Yan off guard, and before he even had time to feel the pain, he immediately passed out.
Looking at Leng Yan who was so vulnerable, Gu Xuanyuan smiled coldly, dragged Leng Yan to the back seat of the car, closed the car door, and left quickly.
Not far away, on the streets of the town, a group of men and women who love nightlife are eating supper on the street, and the early hours of the morning are not much more deserted than the daytime.
"Do you see there's smoke over there? Hey, it seems to be red, is there a fire?"
Men and women eating supper saw smoke rising into the sky from a distance.
When everyone heard the sound, they found that it seemed to be a real fire.
"Call 119!
Everyone hurriedly said a word, immediately ended the supper, and hurriedly drove towards the scene of the fire.

When Gu Huaizuo received the news of the fire, it was already early in the morning at work, and after hearing the secretary's words, Gu Huaizuo decisively took out his mobile phone and tried to call Leng Yan's phone, trying to immediately confirm Leng Yan's safety.
But Leng Yan's mobile phone showed that it had been turned off, Gu Huaizuo had a faint bad premonition, this fire, he easily remembered the last time he almost died in a fire and explosion in the scrap steel factory.
Leng's father, who had just been abroad for a few days, received a call from his family belatedly, and heard that Leng Yan's secluded bamboo forest was on fire, and Leng's father suddenly had a surge in blood pressure, and he couldn't stand the impact of high blood pressure for a while, and immediately fainted due to high blood pressure.
Jiang Zhi'an, an assistant who had been by Leng's father's side, saw that Leng's father was in a coma with excitement, and he was suddenly distracted, after calming down a little, he called the head of the family in China and learned that Leng Yan was "missing" at the fire scene, he felt bad, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing to find the body, but he felt that Leng Yan still had hope of survival.
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Zhi'an remembered the previous family cooperation between the Leng family and the Gu family, and he did not hesitate to call Gu Huaizuo's mobile phone.
Gu Huaizuo didn't know who to contact to inquire about the situation at the moment, when Jiang Zhi'an's cross-border long-distance call came, and he answered decisively.
"Hey, I'm Jiang Zhi'an, now I want to ask you for a favor, Leng Yan disappeared at the scene of the fire, I always feel that things are not so simple, can you help me find Leng Yan for the sake of the relationship between the families, even if it is to find the body......" Jiang Zhi'an's voice came to an abrupt end because of this ominous word, his heart was blocked, and beside him, Leng Father was already under the care of the family doctor, and he gradually woke up panting like a sigh.
"Of course," Gu Huaizuo accepted the request without hesitation, "Although I have no evidence, I am confident that Leng Yan is still alive, because this fire must not be so simple, I will check it with the existing clues first, and I will call you if there is news." ”
Gu Huaizuo said that, and quickly hung up the phone.
Leng Yan knew that he was dreaming, but this dream was very uncomfortable, he dreamed that he was struggling in the cold ice cave, and the cold ice water was about to freeze him......
"Uh......" A breathless voice pulled Leng Yan back to reality.
I tried to open my eyes, but it was pitch black.
Gu Xuanyuan caught this breath in the silence and darkness, he had been waiting for Leng Yan to wake up for a long time, just wanted him to die blindly, so he had the patience to wait for him to wake up.
There was a crisp sound, and the surroundings suddenly brightened, and the dazzling light made Leng Yan subconsciously close his eyes, and after getting used to it a little, Leng Yan saw that most of the clothes on his body had already been scorched, and most of his body was exposed.
Raising his eyes, Leng Yan saw Gu Xuanyuan Zheng with a confident smile on his face, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.
