Chapter 113: Life hangs by a thread
Xia Qinghe was worried, she squatted on the side of the bed and hugged her knees with her hands, she was too scared to speak or cry, the smell of smoke in the house was getting stronger and stronger, and she could still see thick smoke. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Do you really want to die in this house? For the first time, Xia Qinghe felt fear and death.
The man in black was close to madness, he laughed hahaha, he held a torch in his hand, which he found from the stove, he took the torch to the small window of the back room, he smiled at the figure squatting by the bed.
"Xia Qinghe, you want to be a miser, I will fulfill you, I really don't want this silver Uncle Ben, I will burn you, hahaha, I will burn you, you don't let Uncle Ben have a good time, I won't let you have a good time, I might as well tell you who I am when I see you are going to die, I was beaten by you when I came to your house with Zhu Dashi last time, I have long wanted to take revenge, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you will die in my hands."
The man told his identity, but simply stopped masking his face, and directly took off the black cloth on his face, lit it on the torch and stuffed it directly into Xia Qinghe's house.
Xia Qinghe, who was already decadent, suddenly stood up the moment she heard the man in black say her identity, stepped forward and stepped forward to extinguish the fire on the ground.
No wonder, no wonder this man is so familiar with firecrackers, she previously guessed that it was someone from the mountain village, or a nearby village, now think about it, this man knows about firecrackers, it turns out that he has already suffered a loss, so he chose to come to her house on such a special day as the Chinese New Year's Eve.
She gritted her teeth and stared at the man's hideous face, which was a little distorted, and seemed so unreal in the flickering light of the torches.
"Aren't you afraid? Aren't you afraid that I'm dead and the government will find out? She thought the man was crazy.
The man laughed, his face was close to the small window, and a pair of eyes looked at Xia Qinghe mockingly: "Whoever can find me, I'll leave immediately, you and that fool will be burned to death in this house, why are you already stupid with a fool, and you don't even dare to say a word?" Wasn't it rampant just now! They also used firecrackers to scare us. ā
Xia Qinghe's heart tightened, the man meant to escape, if he really wanted to escape, then it would not be easy to catch this person.
She vaguely heard the sound of footsteps, and she was overjoyed, maybe Zhu Xiaochang came with someone.
She took a deep breath and said, "Even if you escape, I won't let you go as a ghost, and even if you become a ghost, I will seek revenge on you." She deliberately intimidated the man.
The man laughed loudly and laughed at Xia Qinghe's childishness: "Great ghost, Uncle Ben has never believed in ghosts, you know, I don't know how many times I have slept in the mass grave since I was a child, Uncle Ben is full of yang and ghosts are afraid of me, hahahaha." ā
As he spoke, he threw the torch into the courtyard and walked directly towards the courtyard gate, obviously wanting to leave Xia Qinghe in the house and escape alone.
Xia Qinghe watched the man walk out of the yard.
Escape! Absolutely not able to seat with no.
She opened the door to the back room, and the hall was already filled with smoke, and she choked on it.
The fire was burning outside the door, and she stretched out her hand to open the door, but the moment she touched the deadbolt, her hand was burned, and the door had been ignited by the fire, and the door was a little hot.
She covered her mouth and rushed into her inner room, found a cloth in the cabinet, wet the cloth with water from the teapot, and then covered her mouth.
The fire seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, and finally, under the thousands of calls in her heart, Zhu Xiaochang and Aunt Chu rushed into the courtyard.
Xia Qinghe hurriedly leaned on the window and shouted outside: "Extinguish the fire, put out the fire first." ā
Aunt Chu, Zhu Xiaochang and a few other people rushed into the stove room, and those with buckets took buckets, and Zhu Dayou took the gong and struck: "It's a fire, it's a fire......." ā
The people of a village were alarmed, Xia Qinghe felt the sound of the fire in the yard "crackling" even in the house, but he was afraid that the fire had spread to the roof, and the house would have to burn down if it went on like this.
The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, if the fire was too big, it would not be easy to extinguish.
She covered her mouth and blocked the gap under the door with a cloth, trying to make the smoke as low as possible into the house, but unfortunately the thatched roof was not easy for the smoke to escape and spread everywhere along the gap.
Not to mention the hall, the smoke in the inner room is getting bigger and bigger, Xia Qinghe tried his best to let his face lie on the small window, sucking in the outside air through a wet cloth.
The Chu family and Zhu Xiaochang also splashed a bucket of water on the house with each person in the village, but unfortunately there was not a lot of water on the mountainside.
Zhu Dayou's gong was struck so well that many people in the village reacted when they heard the fire, and went directly to the river with a wooden bucket to fetch water.
More and more people gathered, and water was splashed on the roofs, on the doors.
The smoke was billowing out, Xia Qinghe's breathing became a little short, and the thick smoke filled the room.
"Bang", Xia Qinghe heard the door knocked open, and then the door of the inner room was also knocked open, she coughed and opened the door, but fell directly into a warm embrace, and then she was carried out in a daze.
She was placed in the yard, inhaling fresh air, surrounded by people and watering her.
She saw clearly the person holding her, wasn't it Xiao Chu, didn't he go to Boss Tu? How did she come back, and she smelled a smell of alcohol.
"Qinghe, are you okay? Qinghe, do you feel uncomfortable there? Xiao Chu was worried, and at the same time, he complained more and more to himself, if he stayed with Xia Qinghe for a while in the thirties of the Chinese New Year's Eve, or kept the New Year together, such a thing would not have happened.
Almost, almost today, it was irreparable, he looked at the half-burned hall, his heart ached, he clenched his fists, such a thing must not be allowed to happen a second time.
Chu squatted down and helped Xia Qinghe with a distressed face: "Qinghe, are you okay, do you have any questions to tell your aunt, let's go and ask the doctor to help you take a look?" ā
Xia Qinghe felt that her breathing was much easier, she shook her head, she wanted to smile and smile to comfort everyone, but she couldn't laugh, she was really frightened, she almost felt like she was going to die in the thick smoke.
I always knew that the fire was more serious, but I didn't know that it would be so serious.
If she hadn't been prepared to wet the cloth and cover her nose, I'm afraid she wouldn't have survived the smoke at all.
Know that water splashing on the roof will cause more smoke, after all, there is already a lot of smoke from straw.
