Chapter 28: Fire
Yuanshu originally wanted to come here to report to his godmother, but when he saw that so many people were there, he was stunned for a moment, especially when he saw that Long Yu was also there, he couldn't make up his mind, so he had to say stupidly: "I'm just here to see Miss Mu's situation." ”
Everyone was also stunned by his recklessness, Xiaoyaozi thought that he was the one who Qingxin arranged to come over to probe the wind, so he replied: "You let your master rest assured, Miss Mu, she is almost fine." ”
"That's good, that's good. Yuanshu didn't want to stay longer for a moment, so he quickly left a sentence and left.
After Yuanshu left, the air in the room began to be cold again, and the godmother thought for a while and said to everyone: "It seems that this is the only way to do it today, why don't you go back to your room to rest first..."
Although the godmother said this, no one moved.
Mo Xueyi continued: "You two old men are here, how can we change our clothes, we are all soaked." ”
Xiaoyaozi originally wanted to stay here, but he was also afraid that Mo Xueyi would plot against him, and seeing that his daughter was also soaking wet, it was not good to stay long, so he said to Long Yu: "Why don't we go first?"
Long Yu owed a salute and went out with Xiaoyaozi.
Night slowly fell, and it was dinner time again, and everyone went downstairs to the lobby to eat, leaving Mu Ge's godmother alone in her room.
Summer nights can be a bit muggy, and this cottage room is no exception. At this time, Long Yu knocked on the door and came in and said, "Senior aunt, the room is so hot now, you go and fetch a basin of water to cool her down." She went downstairs with a washbasin to fetch some water to wipe her down and cool her down.
The water tank is in the corner of the kitchen at the back, and going downstairs to the kitchen is a darkened courtyard. As soon as the godmother walked to the courtyard and the shadow of the tree suddenly heard the sound of yarn, she stopped her steps vigilantly and looked around, when a gust of wind blew, and the tree moved even more.
"It seems that I am overly worried..."The godmother settled her mind and continued to walk forward, but after taking two steps, her nose suddenly felt a little itchy, and a sneeze came out.
She stroked her nose: "No, it seems to smell of smoke." ”
At this time, a firelight printed the whole courtyard red, and the godmother saw at a glance that the firelight was coming out of Mu Ge's room upstairs.
With a bang, the basin fell to the ground, and the godmother Hua ran back with a disgraced face, shouting: "Fight the fire!
There was already a pungent smell in the lobby, and at this time, hearing the voice of the godmother, Xiaoyaozi and Leng Yue hurriedly rushed out. Mo Xueyi didn't dare to follow closely.
Only Qingxin, Long Rui, and Yuanshu were left in the room, and Qingxin looked at Long Rui with a puzzled expression and asked, "Senior nephew, is it your arrangement? Why did they start so early?"
Long Rui was also at a loss: "Uncle Shi, I don't have it, this kind of thing must be done by myself, how can I arrange people?"
Qingxin and Long Rui looked at Yuanshu in unison, and Yuanshu suddenly panicked when he saw their faces: "Master, I... I... I don't know. ”
Qingxin looked at his apprentice like that, he really didn't look like him, he glanced at the two of them left and right, and muttered, "It's not you... It's not you...",
Suddenly, his eyes burst out and he shouted, "Not good!" and rushed out in three steps and two steps. Seeing this, Long Rui and Yuanshu also hurriedly followed.
Xiaoyaozi rushed to the door with the smell of smoke, feeling more and more worried, he pushed the door open, and a thick smoke came to his face, choking the three of them only sneezing.
Leng Yue waved her sleeves and looked in, only to see that the room had long since lost its firelight, but the gray smoke was so thick that the whole room couldn't see the figure at all.
Mo Xueyi hurriedly shouted: "Sister, sister..."
Xiaoyaozi thought that Long Yu seemed to have come up in advance, so he exclaimed: "Long Yu Master Nephew! Long Yu Master Nephew!"
It's just a long smoke, and there is not the slightest response.
Leng Yue saw that there was no reaction inside, so she squeezed forward and said, "Let me come." ”
I saw him slap his palms out and slap it into the room, only to see the two true powers turn into a gust of wind blowing, and in an instant, the smoke in the room dissipated.
At this time, the godmother also rushed up, and she rushed desperately towards the wooden bed, and suddenly tripped about two steps away from the bed, and her whole body fell down. She didn't care about the pain, stood up and threw herself on the side of the bed, groped on the bed for a while, and saw no trace of anyone at all, and her heart tightened: "Not good, daughter... My daughter is gone..."
The room gradually became clearer, and the godmother looked at the bed, and there was indeed no trace of Mu Ge on the bed, she looked around the room again and found that she had tripped over a quilt that had been overheated, and the unburned quilt was the quilt cover covered by Mu Ge.
Xiaoyaozi saw his godmother's red-eared face, and his mouth gradually became deformed; he was afraid that his godmother would cry out loud, so he immediately rushed up to hold his godmother's shoulders and whispered, "Ninth senior sister... You can be clear, the girl is not dead, she is just missing. ”
When the godmother heard that she was not dead, she recovered a lot, she looked around and found that there were indeed no traces of human burning, and her tense heart was soothed a little.
Mo Xueyi looked at the two godmothers of Xiaoyaozi who were afraid of the secret leakage and were suffocating, the corners of her mouth wanted to laugh, she was alert to the perception that Leng Yue was next to her, so she calmed down and looked at Leng Yue next to her with concerned eyes, as if to say: "Brother Leng Yue, don't be afraid, I am by your side at this time." ”
Leng Yue's face was indifferent, since she knew the secret of her mother and Mu Ge's life experience, after so many days, her heart had actually calmed down a lot. He deliberately ignored the embarrassment of the godmother, and just walked around the room to see if there were any clues left.
The room didn't seem to burn anything except the quilt, and Leng Yue picked up the unburned ashes on the floor with her fingers and sniffed it.
Mo Xueyi saw what Leng Yue had discovered, so she stepped forward and asked, "Brother Leng Yue, what is this?"
Leng Yue replied: "This is the smoke from the water, it seems that someone deliberately faked the scene of the fire." ”
When Mo Xueyi heard this, she knew that Mu Ge's life was not in danger for the time being, and her heart was a lot more relaxed: "So, Sister Mu's life is not in danger for the time being, it seems that it is not Uncle Qingxin." ”
Immediately afterwards, she looked at the two godmothers of Xiaoyaozi tightly: "It's not Uncle Qingxin, is it them, they want to hide from the world and deliberately transfer Mu Ge?"
Xiaoyaozi helped her godmother up, looked at Mo Xueyi's suspicious eyes, and asked, "Did you find anything?"
There was a crackling footstep sound in the corridor, and in a blink of an eye, the three of them arrived. He looked at the scene in the room, and suddenly found that Mu Ge on the bed was gone, and he shouted to his godmother, "What about the demon?"
The daughter is missing, and the godmother has no mind at all, and she doesn't want to deal with him at all.
Mo Xueyi saw that everyone didn't talk, and she also wanted to know Mu Ge's whereabouts, so she replied, "Sister Mu is gone." ”
As soon as Qingxin heard this, a figure flashed over, and he stretched out his right hand with a paw to pull out his godmother and ask what was going on.
Seeing this, Xiaoyaozi allowed him to be presumptuous, and immediately transported a shield in front of him, grabbing his right claw.
Bang! Although the shield formed by the true qi stopped the path of the pure heart, it was also knocked out by his powerful power.
Qingxin first looked at his right hand that was being caught, then looked at Xiaoyaozi and his godmother, and said, "What is the relationship between you and that demon?
When the godmother heard this, she couldn't stand it, and slapped her: "Pay attention to what you say." ”
A loud slap in the face, everyone was stunned, no one expected, not even the godmother herself did not expect that she actually regretted it as soon as she made the move, but where could she take it.
Although the slap force is not large, it makes Qingxin unable to get off the stage, he wants to slap his godmother back, but his hand is held down by Xiaoyaozi on his back.
Xiaoyaozi hurriedly said: "Senior brother, what you said is too ugly, don't worry about the ninth senior sister." ”
When Qingxin heard this, he turned his eyes to stare at Xiaoyaozi, and said viciously: "Let go!"
Long Rui also walked around the room, stuck his head out of the window and looked down, and vaguely found footprints. He looked back and couldn't get off the stage if he continued like this, so he hurried to Qingxin's ear and whispered: "I looked around, the demon girl should have been taken away, we should be chasing after the footprints now, it should be too late." ”
Qingxin originally thought that Xiaoyaozi's godmother and others were deliberately hiding Mu Ge, but when she heard Long Rui say this, she looked back at Long Rui in disbelief: "Really?"
Long Rui looked at Qingxin and nodded heavily, "Hmm!"
Xiaoyaozi saw that Qingxin had no strength in his hand, so he let go of his hand.
Qingxin stared at Xiaoyaozi without speaking, and then said to Long Rui and Yuanshu, "Go!"
Long Rui led the way straight in front, jumped down from the outward-facing window, and Qingxin and Yuanshu also flew down one after another.
Xiaoyaozi looked at them and muttered, "They must have found something..."
When Mo Xueyi heard this, she hurriedly said, "Then what are you waiting for... Hurry up and catch up. ”
The godmother reacted and said, "Yes! ”
It's just that Mo Xueyi and Leng Yue have long since disappeared, and only the sound of the wind passing through the air came from under the window.
Xiaoyaozi asked with concern: "Why don't I go, you stay and rest." ”
The godmother hated him angrily, and a figure sprang out of the window. Xiaoyaozi took a look, where was there still time to wait, and flew down with a "sigh".
A mile away from the Caolu, at the Huaijiang Wharf, there is a canopy boat parked, and the candlelight in the canopy boat is swaying. At the bow of the boat stood a girl-like figure poking her head out, constantly looking in the direction of the grass house, as if waiting for someone else.
At this time, there was a sound of "hmm!" from the cabin, and the girl at the bow of the boat returned to the cabin and asked, "Yu Gongzi, is my sister okay?"
Under the candlelight, Mu Ge lay flat in the cabin and breathed evenly, and Long Yu squatted next to her while wiping the corners of her mouth and said, "It's okay now... Is Feng Gongzi back?"
The girl replied, "I'll go out and see my brother again...",
It turned out that this girl was none other than Mu Ge's sworn sister Feng Ling...
