As soon as Li Tianran's voice fell, there was a commotion from outside the house, from far and near, and there was chaos in an instant! Du Fu's heart sank, and he hurriedly said to himself: "What happened? Why is there such a noise outside? ”

Li Tianran's brothers also had a sudden change in their faces, could it be that something happened? The two didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly got up and walked out of the cottage with Du Fu. The three of them went out of the house and found that the noise did not come from the courtyard of the thatched cottage, but from the street outside the thatched cottage.

Li Tianran's heart tightened, and he hurriedly pulled the two of them to the courtyard of the cottage to look back, only to see thick smoke billowing outside the wall, and the flames were soaring into the sky! It turned out that there was a fire, and everyone was afraid that the fire would spread, so they all rushed to the streets, watching the fire all the time.

Seeing this, Li Tianran hurriedly asked Du Fu beside him, "Mr. Du, do you know where this fire broke out?" ”

Du Fu's face was pale, and when he heard Li Tianran ask, he muttered in a low voice: "This fire should be in Chongrenfang, judging from the distance and direction, I'm afraid it is... Yang Zhao's house! ”

"What!!" Li Tianran was immediately shocked, and then said: "Could it be that someone wants to destroy the evidence of the crime?" Is this deliberate arson? ”

After hearing this, Du Fu hurriedly whispered to the two: "Without further ado, you two go and check quickly, it's hard to say that you can still get something!" Remember, be careful! The two glanced at each other, hurriedly bowed their hands to say goodbye to Du Fu, and hurried in the direction of Chongrenfang without saying a word.

In less than half an hour, the two of them had arrived at Chongrenfang, and rushed all the way along the direction of the fire, only to see that the dense fog in the air was getting bigger and bigger, and the fire was full of sky! Suddenly, there was a loud "boom" not far away, and a large mansion collapsed in an instant, which really startled the two of them. But from a distance, it should not be because of the fire, but because of man-made destruction! Chang'an City has a population of one million, and the houses in each square are closely connected, and most of them are wooden structures, and every fire, in order to control the fire, generally choose to demolish the houses around the burning house to avoid further expansion of the fire!

Seeing this, Li Boyu said in a low voice: "It seems that the fire has begun to be extinguished, but... I still can't control it! ”

Li Tianran gritted his teeth and replied, "Brother, hurry!" If it's really Yang Zhao's mansion, there won't be any more evidence if it's late! With that, the two of them began to run again.

Finally, they were getting closer and closer to the burning mansion, but suddenly a large number of Yulin troops blocked the way, and the leader saw that the two wanted to pass through the ranks of the Yulin army, and immediately shouted: "Who are you waiting for?" Didn't you see the fire? Don't want to die? ”

Li Tianran asked breathlessly: "Dare to ask the military master, whose house is this burning mansion?" ”

The leader looked at Li Tianran for a while, and replied angrily: "What's the matter with you?" This is the mansion of General Yang Zhao, the new commander of our Yulin Army! Can you handle it? ”

"What!!" Li Tianran blurted out, and in an instant he felt that his eyes were dark, and he almost fell! I didn't expect it to be Yang Zhao's mansion! Seeing this, Li Boyu hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Li Tianran! Li Tianran steadied himself and continued to ask: "Dare to ask the military master, has the arsonist been caught?" Who set the fire? ”

The leading Yulin Army immediately scolded angrily and loudly: "You don't need to ask!" It must be Li Bai's house!! ”

Li Boyu was immediately furious when he heard this, and wanted to refute, but Li Tianran hurriedly grabbed his sleeve and continued to ask, "Why is the military master so determined?" ”

The leader glanced at the two of them and continued: "Lord Yang Zhao was tragically destroyed the night before! The bones are not cold, and all signs point to the murderer being Li Bai! But by coincidence, the villains escaped from the prison again last night! Who would it be if you said it wasn't? He must have come back to burn his body and destroy the evidence of his murder! ”

"Cremators? Meaning that the corpses of Yang Zhao's family are all in the house? Li Tianran continued to ask.

"Exactly! They are all waiting for inspection at home! The leader responded, but as soon as he finished saying this, he suddenly said angrily: "Who are you? Dare to inquire into the case, it must be the same murderer! Someone, take it for me! ”

Li Bo was very fast, and after hearing the words, he immediately dodged in front of Li Tianran and was ready to fight, but Li Tianran hurriedly took out the golden order of the East Palace from his sleeve, raised his head and responded loudly: "We are on the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to thoroughly investigate this case, who dares to stop it!" ”

The leader glanced at Jin Ling, and immediately was so frightened that he almost wanted to kneel, and said in a changed tone: "It turned out to be under the door of the East Palace, the small one has eyes and no beads, and I hope the two of you don't blame you!" ”

Li Tianran saw the situation, and he didn't dwell too much, and immediately replied: "Those who don't know are not guilty, lead the way, the two of us want to go in and take a look!" ”

"Whoa!" The leader didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to guide the two of them. The two finally arrived in front of Yang Zhao's mansion, and at this time, the fire was already covering the sky, and the dark clouds covered the sun, and the fire did not decrease at all. The leader flattered on the side and said: "The two adults are worried, or don't go in, it's dangerous inside!" ”

Li Tianran did not answer, but carefully observed the fire, the fire did not seem to come from the main hall, but a corner of the Yang Mansion, and the smoke was coming from that side, he turned his head and asked, "Where is the fire?" ”

The leader thought for a moment and replied, "It should be in the cellar." ”

"Cellar? Why is there such a big fire in the cellar alone? Li Tianran asked in surprise.

The leader hurriedly replied: "It's not just the cellar, it's just that the fire is there, and the houses near the cellar are all on fire!" ”

"Let me ask you again, where are the bodies of Yang Zhao's family?" Li Tianran asked.

"Also in the cellar! It's dry and good for corpses! The leader replied.

"Not good!" Li Tianran immediately shouted when he heard this, he hurriedly looked around, and saw that there were several large buckets at the door, and the barrels were already filled with water, which should be used by the Yulin Army to prepare to fight the fire! Li Tianran didn't say a word, hurriedly ran over, took off his coat, and then lifted the bucket and drenched his whole body, and then covered his head with wet clothes. Seeing this, Li Boyu immediately asked, "Brother, you are... Planning to go in? ”

Li Tianran replied: "Don't go in again... It's too late! Just wait for me here, brother! ”

How could Li Bo Bird wait here again, and immediately according to Li Nature's appearance, he drenched himself with a bucket, covered his head with wet clothes, and said loudly: "Ah... Brother, go up to the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, brother will accompany you! ”

Seeing this, the corners of Li Tianran's eyes couldn't help but be hot, but he couldn't afford to delay at the moment, so he nodded to Li Boyu and prepared to run towards the gate. The leading Yulin Army shouted loudly: "Two adults be careful, in case... ”

Before he finished speaking, the two of them had pushed open the door and entered the house. Li Tianran looked around left and right, the front yard was okay, the fire had not yet spread, it was just filled with smoke, Li Tianran glanced at the direction of the fire, and rushed over without saying a word, Li Boyu followed! But as soon as he passed through the front hall, Li Tianran felt a heat wave in his face, and it became a little difficult to breathe!

At this time, Li Tianran couldn't care about this for a long time, and rushed into the sea of fire as soon as he jumped over, and Li Boyu hurriedly followed when he saw this! The charred wood fell one after another around the two of them, and people were terrified to hear it, but fortunately it did not hurt the two. The further you go in, the bigger the fire and the higher the temperature, but at this point, Li Tianran can't care about it, just blindly takes steps towards the backyard. The already wet clothes of the two were almost dried by the fire at this moment, and Li Boyu shouted loudly: "Ah... Junior! Hurry up! The clothes are on fire! ”

Li Boyu shouted like this, Li Tianran suddenly became anxious, he quickly raised his head and looked around, looking for an exit, the speed of falling trees around him was getting faster and faster, it seemed that the two of them had arrived at the center of the fire. Suddenly, Li Tianran saw a wooden door open from the ground through the sea of fire, it seemed that it should be a cellar, Li Tianran called loudly: "Brother, I should have found a cellar, come with me!" ”

After that, Li Tianran gritted his teeth and jumped out of the raging fire, because the fire was huge, the corners of his clothes had begun to catch fire, Li Tianran saw this and hurriedly rolled on the ground to extinguish the open flames on his clothes. Suddenly, a figure also jumped out of the flames, it was Li Boyu, he didn't delay, and hurriedly pushed Li Tianran on the ground, Li Tianran flew to the side, just a big pillar on fire fell, and it happened to hit the place where Li Tianran was lying just now, and suddenly sparks and dust splashed everywhere! It turned out that Li Boyu's blow just now was to save Li Tianran, if it was a moment late, Li Tianran would probably have become a dead soul under the pillar!

Li Tianran's heart palpitated, and he was just about to open his mouth to thank him, but he saw Li Boyu jump up again, and pushed Li Tianran with a palm, Li Tianran was pushed into the cellar just now, and there was a scream of "ah" outside the cellar! It was Li Boyu, half of his body had reached the mouth of the cellar, but he couldn't move anymore! Li Tianran didn't have time to see the environment of the cellar clearly, so he immediately got up and reached out to pull Li Boyu, who shouted loudly: "Brother, don't take care of me, Brother was crushed by the big pillar!" ”

Li Tianran would not care, and immediately pulled Li Boyu's shoulder, Li Boyu's body began to move slowly, and finally was dragged to the cellar by Li Tianran with a "bang", at the same time, there was a loud noise from above, and several huge burning pillars smashed into the cellar mouth, blocking the cellar mouth tightly. Li Tianran couldn't help but feel afraid for a while, even if it was a snap of his fingers, I am afraid that Li Bo Bird at this time was already a dead soul!

The two of them gasped heavily, Li Tianran didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly checked Li Boyu's legs, fortunately, he was only smashed just now, except for some bruises, there was no big problem! Neither was the bone broken! Li Tianran let out a long sigh of relief.

The two finally calmed down, and Li Tianran realized that although the fire outside the cellar was huge, there was a hint of coolness inside, but the fire that was blocked at the entrance of the cave just now had been extinguished, but now it was pitch black.

Li Tianran hurriedly picked up a wooden stick in the dark, took out the flint, and lit a torch...
