Chapter 923: The Fire Spreads
Chapter 923: The fire is raging
Lan Ziyi looked at the scorching river and sank his face, the explosion on the river surface still did not stop after the first loud bang, the huge fire rose one after another, the explosion drowned out the shouts of the people, and I don't know what the river has been blown up now.
Lan Ziyi shook his head and said:
"The arrows shot by the gods did not have such power, and at this time, the people on the boat blew up their own boats."
Peach Rabbit asked in surprise:
"How is that possible? What are they bombing their own ships for? ”
Lan Ziyi said:
"To destroy the corpses, of course."
After saying this, Lan Ziyi lifted his cloak and got up, and he instructed Tao Zhuhu to say:
"Big brother, we must get to the shore as soon as possible."
Before Tao Zhuhu could figure out what Lan Ziyi meant, he asked:
"Young master, now the shore is in chaos, officials and thieves are inseparable, and the past is too dangerous at this time......"
Tao Zhuhu said that there was a loud noise on the river here, and the firelight lit up the night sky again, Tao Zhuhu then saw Lan Ziyi's face, what was written on that face was the old age and coldness that did not belong to Lan Ziyi's age, and in a trance, Tao Zhuhu couldn't tell whether it was Lan Qianzhen or Lan Ziyi in front of him, he could only hear Lan Ziyi's whispered instructions to him
"Big brother! There must have been people on that ship, and those people couldn't fall into Du Jing's hands, at least not now! “
Tao Zhuhu hadn't recovered from his trance yet, and Lan Ziyi couldn't wait for him to come out, so Lan Ziyi immediately grabbed his arm and shook it:
"Big brother! Hold on a little longer, we're resting after tonight, and now we have to go to the other side of the river. “
Tao Zhuhu was finally woken up by Lan Ziyi, he pinched his eyebrows hard to calm down, and then he instructed his guy:
"Tell the brothers below that we are going down."
Then a few guys began to hand in hand to pick up Lan Ziyi downstairs, Tao Zhuhu personally sent Lan Ziyi downstairs, and took this opportunity to lean into Lan Ziyi's ear and said:
"Young master, the capital is in chaos, it's too dangerous tonight, let's go back."
Lan Ziyi's legs had already stretched downstairs at this time, and the guy below had already caught him, and after he heard Tao Zhuhu's words, he hugged Tao Zhuhu's arm and whispered:
"Big brother, once the people in the boat fall into the hands of the government, the sister-in-law will be suspected, now is not the time to apportion, you and I can not die, but the sister-in-law and the child in the sister-in-law's belly don't need to put their lives into it! Tonight, you are ready to send your sister-in-law back to the customs immediately, why do you have to send your sister-in-law away! “
After speaking, Lan Ziyi let go of the peach and went downstairs. Tao Zhuhu's worry is not unreasonable, Lan Ziyi has just gone down to the second floor and has already smelled the thick gunsmoke, and from the second floor, the street is even more smoky. But tonight, Lan Ziyi must go to the river, and if he doesn't go to the river, he will have to be driven crazy by the evil fire in his heart.
So don't care about the smoke of gunpowder, Lan Ziyi quickly fell on the street with the help of the guys, now Lan Ziyi can experience the street scene in person, the fog mixed with the smoke of gunpowder mixed with the smell of human blood permeates the four directions, Lan Ziyi was smoked so much that he couldn't even open his eyes when he first experienced this miasma, he covered his mouth and nose and leaned against the wall and coughed hard, unable to move for a long time, until the guy next to him handed him a wet cloth strip to block the surface He could barely open his eyes.
At this time, Tao Zhuhu and Tao Zhutu also came down from upstairs, and when they saw Lan Ziyi being smoked like this, Tao Zhuhu persuaded Lan Ziyi to say:
"Young master, I'm not afraid of no firewood to stay in Qingshan, it's not too late to do it another day."
Lan Ziyi said:
"After today, I won't have a chance to do it."
Tao Zhuhu said again:
"But now it's like this, young master, even if you know that the people on the ship have landed, you don't know where they are?"
Tao Zhuhu said this is a problem, but this question is not enough to stop Lan Ziyi, he gritted his teeth and said:
"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, go first and then talk!"
After saying that, Lan Ziyi ordered the guy next to him:
"Lead the way!"
When the guys heard Lan Ziyi's words, they naturally knew that he was going to the river, and after receiving the order, someone led the way, and the other guys also spread out on all sides to protect Lan Ziyi in the center as just now.
At this time, the capital was already in chaos, and the alleys that were affected by the fire were full of people at this time, and people ran to the streets and shouted in panic, they called for the villagers to help put out the fire, and the neighbors in the alleys had also practiced before, and all the shouts were organized
Come busy, but to fight the fire always have to try to draw water, here is close to the Green River, everyone naturally wants to go to get river water, but the river bank has already been full of Du Jing's officers and soldiers, after several rounds of muskets and artillery in a row, where is there still a gap for outsiders to enter on the bank now?
There was no water to use, so the people had to use their own water and well water to extinguish the fire, and the fire was difficult to control because it was on the shore and there were few households digging wells. The fire gradually spread to the surrounding area, and many neighboring neighbors had no choice but to push the neighboring houses to avoid the fire, and as for other farther places, people were frightened all night and all the doors and windows were closed and did not dare to probe, for fear of seeing a ghost.
The chaos is not a bad thing for Lan Ziyi, everyone on the street is busy fighting fires, and no one has the heart to pay attention to Lan Ziyi, even if someone has that heart, but who can see clearly between the smoke and clouds? The only obstacle to Lan Ziyi was the chaotic pedestrians on the street, the pedestrians blocked Lan Ziyi's road, and Lan Ziyi and his people were so crowded that the march was not smooth.
But even so, Lan Ziyi did not give up walking to the river, he and the others under his hands were disgusted, lined up everyone, and walked towards the river bank little by little, the more they went to the river, the more chaotic the situation became, there were not many people who fought the fire there, but there were many people who fled for their lives, and the collapsed buildings were completely scattered into a pile of rubble at this time, they were scattered on the street to block the road, and those places that were bombed were burned and impassable.
Lan Ziyi and the others stopped on the street outside the river, looking for the way ahead, only one street away, but Lan Ziyi just couldn't find the way to go. Around Lan Ziyi, there are soldiers in their hands and people who have suffered unjustified disasters, stumps and broken arms are all over the streets, those who can still move are trying their best to crawl out, those who faint and have no strength can only sit on the street corner and gasp for breath and wait for death, even if they are not burned to death, they will be smoked to death sooner or later, Du Jing's ambush tonight can be described as a heavy loss.
The strip of cloth on Lan Ziyi's mouth has long been useless, and now every breath he inhales into his lungs is hot and scorching, and Lan Ziyi feels that his lungs will be burned black sooner or later. His eyes were not adapted to the smoke, which would be even more invisible, he could only touch the way, but in this situation on the road, even if someone in front of him led the way, he did not touch it smoothly, and suddenly Lan Ziyi rushed to the foot and was tripped up, and fell to the ground with a stumble, but he did not fall because of this.
The smoke close to the ground was much lighter than in mid-air, and Lan Ziyi saw that he was lying next to a person, who was pressing his hand on his chest, and his chest was red and bloody, and it seemed that he was sitting on the street against the wall, and it was his leg that tripped Lan Ziyi. After being hit by Lan Ziyi, the man regained some consciousness, he opened his eyes and saw Lan Ziyi, and suddenly he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, but he couldn't move, he could only squeeze out a sentence "Help me," but his voice was immediately drowned by the blood gushing in his chest, and after choking a few times, the man finally died with difficulty.
"Young Master! I'll pull you up! “
Along with the words came the big hand of the peach chasing the tiger, but Lan Ziyi did not get up immediately, he closed his eyes and silently said "Go to life" and closed his eyes for the sergeant, and then he got up from the ground.
