Chapter 108: Burning the Jade Tower
"I'm going. ”
"What are you going to do, are you going to die?" Bai Hengyuan said in annoyance.
Bai Hengyuan and Liu Liu were not far from the door, and they were in a stalemate as hot as a roasting fire. In the noisy and panicked crowd, the dreamy and poetic feelings that Gu Lian saw just now were all gone, and the sound of spring water, music, and the low laughter of beautiful men and women were replaced by panicked footsteps, helpless crying, and the joy of escape, and the burning building was like the luxury and beauty of the holy fire in front of the memorial moment.
Such a panicked atmosphere scorched the surrounding air, and the two people in the surging crowd stood facing each other, domineering and not letting anyone, and their faces were terrible. It wasn't until there was a sound of water that the anger between the two was broken, and they were so startled that they took a step back at the same time, but it was still too late - they were drenched in water, and they were as wet as chickens in soup.
"What are you doing?"
"What do you do!"
The two men spoke in unison, glaring angrily at the perpetrator. There was another commotion, Gu Lian put down the bucket casually and brushed her wet hair. With their current embarrassed appearance of racing one by one, where can they still hold up any momentum, Gu Lian is not afraid of them at all when they are paper tigers.
It wasn't feeling well to be soaking wet, especially now that she's not feeling well. Her body is cold, and her hands and feet are often cold in the summer, and she is so tired on the first day of menstruation, and there is a cold water, at this time her body hurts faintly, and her face is even more pale and pitiful set off by the wet black hair.
But her face didn't show anything, but her eyes widened. smiled very angrily, and pointed to the jade building: "I'm going to go in, you can't get in." I don't care, just don't get in the way. ”
After speaking, without waiting for them to react, he lowered his head, flexibly bypassed the crowd, and ran over quickly.
She calculated in her heart that the fire had only been burning for three minutes now. In addition, the people who finally have the base and the onlookers to put out the fire can still support it. If you delay any longer, you will definitely go in and die one by one. The fool only glared at the two of them.
Liu Liu and Bai Hengyuan were only stunned for a moment, and soon, Bai Hengyuan reacted and hurriedly said, "You wait for me!" She was smaller than both. Like a small fish in the crowd, he lost his trace with a flick of his tail.
"Gu Lian, stop!" Liu Liu was also anxious, as Bai Hengyuan squeezed towards the door, she only took a few steps, a stream of heat rushed towards her, she subconsciously took a breath, the dry and hot seemed to be able to burn the internal organs, and the clothes that were close to the skin were not so clammy and cold. Her beautiful face was awe-inspiring. The expression is cruel but calm.
"Don't squeeze me!"
"Don't get in the way. ”
She and Bai Hengyuan arrived at the door almost at the same time, and the two couldn't help but glance at each other. They each snorted unkindly, and kept squeezing in.
"Gu Lian, where are you?"
The once pitch-black arched corridor was burned red, as if it would drip copper-colored boiling water in the next moment. In the past, it is the staircase, and further on is a spacious singing and dancing platform, hospitality tables and chairs. In the light of the beautiful jumping fire, the air is hazy and twisted, and the crackling sound of burning, everything is quiet and gorgeous, even the carvings of tables and chairs seem to be ignited with life, and they are reveling in scorching heat.
"Gu Lian, Ah Rui!" Liu Liu shouted, his voice passing out emptyly.
The fire was shining and the smoke was filling.
"I'm here!"
Gu Lian's voice sounded indistinctly, and the two soon found that Gu Lian was climbing the stairs on the ladder diagonally opposite.
Liu Liu gasped, and her heart tightened: "You are going to die!" If that person is still upstairs, Gu Lian is a live target!
Bai Hengyuan's face was gloomy, and he followed without saying a word. The staircase Gu Lian chose was the farthest away from the person's location, and if Ah Rui was still on the second floor, such a location could search for the most rooms possible.
No...... No...... Still not...... Gu Lian tensed her nerves, searched one by one, the raging flames blinded, choking smoke into her lungs, she covered her mouth and coughed lightly, in a trance she felt that she was roasting in the alchemy furnace, beads of sweat densely covered her forehead, and slid down her cheeks again.
She wiped her face, barely closed the door, her whole body was like fire, she felt dizzy, shook her head, and the next moment she was supported by a strong hand around her waist.
"Are you okay?" Bai Hengyuan said in a low voice, his hand tightly wrapped around her demobilized body.
Gu Lian leaned on him weakly, closed her eyes and panted, her vision was a little blurred, and she looked up at him blankly.
Bai Hengyuan's expression was unexpectedly calm, ignoring her eyes, reaching out and touching her face, frowning slightly. She was sweating so much, but her skin was cold. He reached out and grabbed her hand, his hand was cold, his fingertips seemed to be poured cold water, and the palm of his hand was in a cold sweat, he felt a pain in his heart, lowered his head and rubbed her hand, and then came to his mouth and kissed it gently, without saying more, let go of her and continued to search forward.
Gu Lian was stunned, a little sober, looked down at her fingers, away from Bai Hengyuan's heat, her fingers cooled down inch by inch, but Fang Cai's touch couldn't get rid of it, like feathers kept scratching, itchy and a little uncomfortable.
She clenched her fingers and looked around the corner not far away, hesitating. In fact, her intuition had already told her that Ari would not be here, and it would be in vain to look for it any longer. What's more, she already knew what Bai Hengyuan meant.
He didn't stop her, he just silently accompanied her to find someone, not to indulge her, but to show his attitude: he would not hesitate to evacuate when it was dangerous enough to evacuate, and before that, he would not talk nonsense and waste time.
That said, time is running out.
Gu Lian didn't think that she could run out under Bai Hengyuan's control, and it was shameful to waste her life senselessly.
So......
She glanced at Bai Hengyuan and Liu Liu further away, and the moment they entered the room, she took a deep breath, and then ...... Uh, choked on a cough...... She covered her mouth and coughed, feeling that she really had no talent for pretending, and ran quickly around the corner with a red face, crouched down and quietly observed the place.
The corner over there was the slowest place where the fire burned, but the approaching flames around it were enough to illuminate it. The man squatted in place, not moving, not hiding, and the figure seen through the flames and smoke appeared small......
Gu Lian's heart skipped a beat, and then she fell coldly......
Fire......
Heat......
Hair seems to smell burnt......
Ari smiled in a trance, with a delicate little face, and a smile that is usually difficult to see.
Someone bullied Ari ...... Ari killed them with his own hands...... Ari is very useful...... Would his father praise him...... He obediently killed the two men that day, but my father was very angry...... Don't you think he's useless?
If it doesn't work, he's going to be abandoned again......
Whoever stands in the way, Ari will deal with them...... I won't trouble my father anymore......
So, please don't show that disappointed expression again, and don't throw him away like garbage......
Ari would be very useful and useful......
His hand was tightly gripping the gun, his small, soft fingers pulling the trigger, and he could faintly hear the sound of slow footsteps.
Ari's eyes were already blurry, as if he was in the desert breathing heavily, his whole body was weak, and with every breath, his brain was heavy, but the instinct to kill was like engraved in his bones, firmly grasping the breath of the people who came over, like a hunter, releasing an uncontrollable powerful murderous aura, waiting for the prey to approach.
Knock, knock, knock......
"Ari ......" (To be continued.) )
PS: Barely breathing to maintain the middle of the day...... QWQ
