The fire in Luban Hall was soaring.

Although there are fire extinguishing equipment such as water tanks throughout the shipyard, autumn is the dry season, and no amount of water is more than the wood in the shipyard.

In particular, the hall where assault boats are being built in Luban Hall, where all the wood and scraps from shipbuilding are placed there.

Fortunately, the shipyard took into account the problem of water access at the beginning, so each courtyard is an independent courtyard, and the houses in each place are not like ordinary houses, which are connected by a long corridor.

As long as it is not a windy day, as long as the fire is controlled, the fire will not spread to other places.

Escort Cheng rushed over with people carrying water, and everyone joined the firefighting ranks.

Guard Cheng grabbed a guard who was carrying an empty bucket and was about to run to fill it with water and asked, "Is Mrs. An injured?"

This person's face was blackened by smoke, and Cheng Escort recognized it from his attire, which was his own.

The person carrying the empty bucket was stunned for a moment, and then said: "If you go back to your lordship, it is the temple house where the assault boat was built that is on fire, and there will be no one there at night." Mrs. An led the craftsmen to put out the fire at the back door, and it is unclear whether there are any casualties now. ”

Guard Cheng nodded, let go of his hand and let the man go to fill the water.

He turned his head to look outside the courtyard, and at this moment, in addition to the guards, there were also people who had rushed to put out the fire as he was.

When he saw the people guarding the other courtyards, also carrying buckets, he kicked them in anger.

The barrel in the hands of the person running in front suddenly split in half.

Cheng Huwei said angrily: "Who let you leave your post without permission?"

Cheng Guard's words made everyone who rushed over couldn't help but stop.

The man who didn't have the bucket stumbled and said, "Master Cheng, there's a fire here." ”

Then the man behind him pulled the man, and the man stopped.

Immediately, a voice sounded: "Guard Cheng, let them immediately go to everyone in the Luban Hall and see who is not here now." ”

Cheng Guard shouted, "Come with me." ”

A group of people hurriedly ran away with Cheng Guard.

The county lord of Annan turned his head and said: "I went to surround the courtyard, but no one who came to put out the fire was allowed to leave." ”

The county lord of Annan came over from her shoulder, and when she saw Cheng Escort from a distance, she knew that the fourth family was fine.

If something happens to the fourth family, Cheng Escort will let people return as soon as possible, instead of letting everyone join the firefighting ranks.

Jingrui's daughter-in-law said, "Do you know where Mrs. An is?"

There are people running around fetching water.

Someone heard the questioning and shouted directly: "Mrs. An is fighting the fire at the back door of the palace house." ”

Mrs. Ann didn't think about it at the moment, she just wanted to put out the fire at the back door, and then go in and take out the blueprints of the assault boat.

The county lord of Annan got off his shoulder, and the two people who raised his shoulder also ran to put out the fire.

And Jingrui's daughter-in-law helped the county lord of Annan to the back door.

Mrs. Ann's face had been smoked so much that she couldn't tell whether she was good or bad.

It's just that judging from her expression, she was also frightened by this sudden fire.

The county lord of Annan shouted: "The old four." ”

When Mrs. An heard the voice of the county lord of Annan, she turned her head, and tears flowed down her eyes.

She ran over in three steps and two steps, and pounced directly on the body of the county lord of Annan, the county lord of Annan took a step back, but fortunately, Jingrui's daughter-in-law supported her.

Mrs. An lost her previous composure, she cried and choked up: "County Lord, the assault boat is gone." ”

They have been rushing almost day and night these days, and seeing that it is coming to an end, who would have expected such a fire to come.

The county lord of Annan comforted: "It's good if people are fine, it's okay if people are okay." Boats, we can build them again. ”

As she spoke, she pulled Mrs. Ann to the side of the shadows.

Mrs. An wiped her tears embarrassedly, and then helped the county lord of Annan to the gatehouse.

After Mrs. An's mood calmed down, the drawings of the assault boat sounded, and she said anxiously: "County lord, the drawings of the assault boat are still inside." We can't let others get it, our shipyard has spies. ”

This time, no one needs to say, Mrs. An also knows that there are spies in the shipyard, otherwise how could a good person catch fire.

The alarm bell in the heart of the county lord of Annan rang out, and then he said: "The doors and windows are locked, and those drawings are put back in the lacquered wooden box?"

Mrs. An nodded, "The drawings were put in by the daughter-in-law herself, and the doors and windows were also checked by the daughter-in-law before leaving." ”

The county lord of Annan nodded, and did not say anything, now it is very chaotic here, and there are everyone.

Fortunately, the fire has not been extinguished yet, and the arsonist will not leave rashly.

Although they wasted their time on shipbuilding, it was clear that they couldn't wait.

Now that fine work is not on the list of building assault boats, it is among the people fighting fires.

She believed that if she looked carefully, she would be able to find this person.

The sky grew brighter, and the fire was extinguished.

The Cheng guard, who was blackened from head to toe by smoke, walked in.

Jingrui's daughter-in-law took Wang's mother to the door together.

Cheng Huwei walked up to the county lord of Annan and saluted: "County Lord Qiyu, two blackened corpses were found in the palace, as for the cause of death, I have to find a person to investigate." ”

The county lord of Annan and Mrs. An were both stunned.

Mrs. An exclaimed: "This is impossible, it is locked at night, and there is no one left behind, not to mention that I am the only one who has the keys to all the doors and windows." ”

Mrs. Ann thought that someone was trying to prevent them from succeeding in building a ship, so she took the risk of setting a fire outside the palace.

She never thought that there were still people in the hall, and there were only two people.

The lord of Annan County said: "Who is missing from the craftsmen of Lubantang?"

Cheng Huwei said: "If you go back to the county lord, there are fewer craftsmen in Luban Hall, the second old lady An Jingsheng and the fourth master An Bihuai, but there are also two fewer people who are placed here to watch the courtyard." The subordinates have already asked the other guards to come over. ”

The county lord of Annan said in disbelief: "There are four less all of a sudden?"

She then asked, "Did you find the lacquered wooden box containing the blueprints of the assault boat?"

Mrs. An's face was already pale at this moment.

Her mind was blank, she hadn't thought about why this matter had something to do with the second old lady's father and son. They were the people she trusted the most.

Cheng Huwei said: "The lacquered wooden box has been found, but the lid is open, and the contents may have been burned. ”

When Mrs. An heard this, she sat down directly in her chair.

All she could think about was the blueprints of the assault boat.

And the county lord of Annan's face couldn't see where to go, what she thought in her heart was that if it was really burned, it would be fine, but if the drawing was taken away, wouldn't it be ......

Jingrui's daughter-in-law walked in from outside the door, "County Lord, Miss Xiangju is here, she said to invite the county lord and Mrs. An to move to Wutong Garden." ”
