Chapter 385: Someone set fire
Ma Fei saw Yuan Tan, including Yuan Kang, and everyone was full of joy.
Connect with Yuan Tan, and they don't have to live a day of hiding and hiding anymore!
It's time to fight back!
Yuan Kang asked, "Can the general inform the eldest brother of the recent investigation?" ”
"I didn't tell you!" Ma Fei said: "A certain one told the eldest son that the fourth prince was in the city. ”
"The general should have been informed! If the eldest brother knows the reason, if there is an accident, he can also present it to his father! ”
"With me waiting, the fourth son can rest assured ......"
"Rest assured?" A yin and yang strange voice came from outside the house: "Ma Fei, the so-called art is bold, but you are bold and overconfident, and you haven't even noticed that we are following." ”
Hurried footsteps were heard outside the door, and many people surrounded the room.
A stout man crossed his waist, and behind him stood a hundred and ten strong men.
It was Zhang Nan, the general under Yuan Xi, who led people to surround the houses.
Trapping Ma Fei and the others, Zhang Nan said proudly: "I have heard for a long time that General Ma under the command of the fifth prince is famous, and I have already had the intention of getting acquainted, and I don't want to see each other is like this. ”
No one in the room answered.
Ma Fei, who was still talking earlier, did not give Zhang Nan any response.
Seeing that no one responded, Zhang Nan beckoned: "Set fire!" ”
"General, this is a private house!" A man reminded: "Once you set fire, it will definitely attract patrol soldiers, and I am afraid it will be difficult to clean up!" ”
"Ma Fei and the others have superb swordsmanship, who are you waiting for to enter?"
Zhang Nan didn't dare to say anything about the more than 100 men behind him.
Although they had never fought against the Night Thorn, they had heard of Ma Fei's name.
Go deep into the Cao army to take the enemy's head, like probing the bag and taking things!
In the face of such a fierce person, how dare they fight hard?
"Set fire!" Zhang Nan commanded again.
The men lit torches and threw them through the windows into the house.
A fire lit up in the room. Billowing smoke drifted out of the window.
The flames burned more and more, and to Zhang Nan's surprise, there was no scream from the house when people were burned. Not even a cough.
The fire became more and more ferocious, and Zhang Nan knew that the patrol soldiers were coming soon to greet everyone: "Go!" ”
More than 100 men immediately withdrew. But in an instant, the flaming house was empty!
"It's out of the water!" Not long after Zhang Nan and his people left, the people living nearby found the fire and ran out of their homes one after another.
Several families adjacent to the burning house were carrying pots and buckets and hurriedly put out the fire!
More and more people participated in the firefighting, and several teams of Yuan Jun patrolling nearby also rushed to help.
The sound of shouting, crying, and the sound of pots and barrels clattering are intertwined, and Yecheng at night is even more lively during the day.
Due to the timely detection. The fire did not spread, and only more than a dozen nearby homes were affected.
The morning sun is rising, and the morning sun spreads all over the land.
In order to protect the fire, the patrol Yuan army surrounded the houses that had been burned to ruins.
The lively people watched from afar, guessing the reason for the fire.
More than a dozen families who lost their homes wept bitterly and cursed the fire at night!
Accompanied by several guards, the judge went to the burning house.
Smoke still billows from the burned houses.
Entering the house, where most of the collapsed houses had been built, he carefully examined the evidence left behind.
In the middle of the house, there are 100 long strips of charred charcoal on the ground.
from the shape and traces of burning. The judges could see that the charcoal had been torches.
"Judging the public, the fire is strange!" One of the guards who came with him whispered, "It looks like someone did it on purpose!" ”
"Not like it, but definitely!" The judge said: "There are many people who set the fire, but I don't know who lives here!" What kind of enemies they provoked. What a cruel act! ”
No one could answer him.
A hundred and ten torches were thrown into the house, and there must have been many arsonists.
The people who have lived here must have offended the famous people in Yecheng!
"Investigate this thoroughly!" The judge said: "Let's start with the soldiers who were missing from the barracks yesterday night!" ”
"The judge is ......," one of the guards asked, "and this matter has something to do with the barracks?" ”
"Although there are lawless idlers in Yecheng. They can also gather a crowd to make trouble, but they dare not commit arson! The judge said, "This must have been done by someone with a face." ”
"Judge the public!" A guard leaned into his ear. whispered: "But it will be between the sons......"
The judge was stunned.
He thought that this fire might be related to the generals and staff in the city, but he didn't expect that it would involve the sons of the Yuan family fighting for the right to inherit.
"But do you want to check?" The guard asked.
There was silence for a long time. The judge clenched his fists and said: "Compensate the victims, this matter will be investigated in detail, but if you get something, report it immediately!" Whatever the reason, don't give it away! ”
After setting the fire, Zhang Nan returned to the barracks with 100 people.
instructed everyone not to talk nonsense, and he went to ask to see Yuan Xi.
Inside Yuan Xi's house.
Zhang Nan stood with his hands down.
"No screaming, no coughing." Yuan Xi's face was gloomy: "When you wait, there is no sound in the house?" ”
"Hui Gongzi, there is no sound!"
"It's a good horse to fly, and you actually let him go!" Yuan Xi smiled coldly.
"How did Childe know that the horse flew away?" Zhang Nan was stunned.
"There was no scream, maybe Ma Fei and the others endured the burning pain." Yuan Xi said: "The fire is accompanied by thick smoke, how can people endure the smoke in the smoke? There was no cough in the house, so it can be seen that Ma Fei and the others were no longer there. ”
"The last general looked around, but found no other portals! Where did they escape? ”
"Who says you can't leave without a portal?" Yuan Xi said: "Don't forget, Ma Fei is under the command of Xianxin. Showing his whimsical and ingenious, Guandu created flying kites and fire kites that day. Ma Fei can't learn some fur after following him for a long time? ”
When Zhang Nan returned to Yuan Xi, there was another house in the city.
Ma Fei and the others sat around the room.
They were not embarrassed at all, and everyone, including Yuan Kang, was very calm.
"The second brother and the third brother want to put someone to death and then hurry up." Yuan Kang gritted his teeth and said, "How can the two of them succeed?" ”
"Don't worry about Childe!" Ma Fei said: "I'll wait to get out of the secret way, and when I see the eldest son tomorrow, there will be no one to make it difficult for the son!" ”
"General Ma!" Yuan Kang asked, "How can there be secret passages in the houses?" How many hiding places do you have in Yecheng? ”
"Childe asked, I don't know how to answer." Ma Fei smiled indifferently and said: "There are many hiding places in Yecheng that allow us to hide, and there are secret passages in each place, but the distance and distance are different!" ”
Ma Fei didn't say exactly how many hiding places there were, and Yuan Kang didn't ask any more.
No matter how Ma Fei and the others get out of danger, it will only be good for him, and there will be no harm to him.
Knowing too much is sometimes not good!
There was a fire in the city, and the news reached Yuan Shao's ears.
After listening to the narration, Yuan Shao felt that something was wrong: "Can Zhengnan find out, is there arson in this matter, or is it an unintentional mistake of the people?" (To be continued.) )
