As soon as my voice fell, the atmosphere instantly cooled down, plummeting to freezing, Xie Wenyuan gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from his mouth: "What if I don't borrow it?"

Wang Yuanwai and the old butler took a few steps back, they were simply placed in the two heavens of ice and fire, just now they could burn a charred outside and tender inside, but now they are so cold that they can freeze into ice, they really can't afford to hurt it!

I sneered and looked at Xie Wenyuan, "If Lord Xie can ignore human life, then, I think, your position as a scholar should also be given up to Xian, is human life so worthless in your eyes? Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

After I finished speaking, I turned around and was about to leave, but I didn't really go, I just made a gesture.

"Wait!"

Xie Wenyuan's voice sounded behind me, stopping me.

I froze for a moment, and I didn't really plan to leave, so I turned around and asked, "Lord Xie has thought it through?"

It seems that my agitation method has worked, and I can't help but be happy in my heart, and the time can't be delayed any longer, so I looked at Xie Wenyuan nervously, waiting for his answer.

"This official is just for the sake of the people of Li, and he will lend you the house, what do you want, you can say it!" Although he said it, his tone was extremely awkward, and he still carried a little displeasure.

But it doesn't matter, he still compromised in the end, and he knew that he, Xie Wenyuan, would not ignore the life and death of the people.

I nodded, "In that case, then thank you first." Then he continued: "Then please take me to the courtyard closest to the Fengxian Tower in the west!"

Although Xie Wenyuan was extremely reluctant, he still led the way in front.

The courtyard on the west side is close to the Fengxian Building, so it is not inhabited, it has been empty, a three-story small building stands in the northwest corner, the most connected to the Fengxian Building, only a wall apart, fortunately, the wind is reversed, otherwise, at this moment his building is difficult to protect.

Ascending to the third floor, you can see the situation in the Fengxian Building clearly, the rest of the people are hurriedly extinguishing the fire, buckets of water are poured on it one after another, but there is no effect, some of the beams have been engulfed by the fire, falling down and pressing on the things piled up on the ground, those are the things I want to prepare, and they are no longer saved.

My eyes narrowed, and I raised my eyes and swept towards Xie Wenyuan's west courtyard, fortunately, his house was the same as Wang Yuan's house, and there was also a pool in the west courtyard, the water in the pool was clear and the water was sufficient.

It's just that if you want to lead this pool of water up to the third floor and sprinkle it into the Fengxian Building to extinguish the fire, I'm afraid it will take some effort.

Thinking about it, Mother Li hurried over, and saw Xie Wenyuan shrinking back to me with some fear, while Xie Wenyuan snorted coldly and avoided the distance as if to ward off evil spirits.

Mother Li looked away from Xie Wenyuan stupidly, and leaned into my ear and whispered: "Princess, the bamboo tube of the waterwheel is ready, look ......"

I nodded with satisfaction, Mother Li's hands and feet were fast, I thought I would have to wait a little longer, I was in a hurry, I didn't want them to be so fast.

So he said to Li's mother, "Where is the thing?" Take me to see it. ”

Mother Li answered and led the way in front.

Wang Yuanwai didn't say a word and followed, Xie Wenyuan was curious about what I wanted to do with the waterwheel, so he also took the old housekeeper to follow.

After a short time, Li's mother took me to the place where they had left the waterwheel, and when I saw it, I was even more happy that they had two human-powered waterwheels seven or eight meters high.

I have been worried before, afraid that the waterwheel they got is too small and not high enough, and the water needs to be sent to the third floor first and then led down by the bamboo tube Fengxian Tower, now the waterwheel is about the same height as the third floor, although it is a little shorter, but it should be enough, and now this problem is solved.

The two waterwheels required about eight to ten people to put their feet on the force, and the bamboo tubes they found were the size of a middle-aged man's arm, so I walked around the waterwheel with satisfaction, thinking about how to set them up.

Xie Wenyuan also surrounded me curiously, and asked me inexplicably: "What are you doing looking for a water truck? Can this put out the fire?"

I glanced at him, "Can you, we'll find out later." ”

So without further ado, he ordered them all to move and transport the two water wheels to Wang Yuanwai's Mansion and Xie Wenyuan's Mansion respectively, their two mansions were closest to the fire source, and the two places were filled with water together, the distance was still enough, and there was no problem that some places could not deliver water.

Before they started, I had told Wang Yuanwai in detail how to set up a waterwheel, and Wang Yuanwai only told me to rest assured and went.

On this side, Xie Wenyuan also called the family in the house to follow Zhang Luo, and more than 20 people worked hard to frame the waterwheel into the pool, but fortunately, the pool was large enough, and the waterwheel was also higher than the wall.

After setting up the waterwheel, I began to instruct them to install the bamboo tubes, which stretched from the top of the fence to the Fengxian Building one by one, and at the same time erected several of them, one end of which was aimed at the waterwheel scraper, and the other end was aimed at the fire.

After everything was prepared, I didn't know the bottom of my heart, it should be able to do it according to reason, so I called a few young and strong men to get on the waterwheel pedal first and try it.

Fortunately, everything went well, and the water could basically flow up the scraper into the bamboo tube as I thought, and then flow down the bamboo tube into the Fengxian Tower.

This side is ready, I asked Li's mother to evacuate the others who were fighting the fire, and I didn't feel at ease and went to the Wangyuanwai Mansion.

Wang Yuanwai's side was also well prepared, both sides of the force at the same time, the waterwheel moved under the drive of manpower, and the water continued to go to the Fengxian Building, splashing out of the fire.

I myself was anxiously observing the fire in Fengxian Tower, and saw that the fire was constantly getting smaller and smaller under the continuous pouring of water, and the green smoke kept drifting out, and the heart I was carrying slowly fell.

At this moment, I also felt that my eyebrows were cold, and God was also beautiful, and it began to rain lightly.

By the time the sky was turning white, the fire had been extinguished and the rain had stopped.

The people who were sheltering from the rain under the eaves of the porch showed joy on their faces at this moment, and they all murmured: "Great, great!"

I yawned and stayed awake all night, not knowing how heavy my dark circles were at the moment, and I was already sleepy.

In the past, in modern times, I stayed up late and worked for three days in a row, and I didn't see that I was so sleepy now, I don't know if I came back to live as a rice worm, I was too lazy, and I didn't sleep all night.

Although the fire was extinguished, the matter was not over, and tomorrow was the Oiran Contest, and like this, my worried mind was completely a mess, and my head was tight.

At this time, Li's mother came over and asked worriedly, "Princess, are you okay after a busy night?"

I shook my head and yawned heavily.

Seeing this, Mother Li hurried over: "I asked Dai Dai to clean up the room, princess, you go to sleep for a while, we will clean up the rest of the things, and call you later." ”

I glanced at Li's mother, and I was really sleepy, so I said, "Thank you." "Dai Dai has already come up to help me.

I only took two steps, I couldn't lift my eyelids, I only felt that I was blocked by a figure in front of me, and I didn't bother to look at who it was, I knew: "If you say something later, I'm sleepy." ”
