The scene was out of control, this was something she expected and reasonable, Qiao Ran was dragged by the crowd and rushed towards the town demon building.

It is not easy to see that there are many black heads in sight, and it is not easy to find someone or something else from them. Qiao Ran struggled in the crowd to watch.

People are naturally not easy to see, but others can be seen clearly.

For example, this gold-paved demon building is magnificent, in stark contrast to the low and simple houses on the street. So, how can the born monks pay so much attention to such mundane things as money?

Qiao Ran sneered and heard someone shouting in front of him.

"Master Yuanfeng is gone!"

"The Guyuan Daoist is also gone!"

……

It's right if you don't see it. It can be seen that this master and Taoist master who came from nowhere have great eyesight, and when they see that the situation is not right, they slip away. Qiao Ran huddled in the crowd, listening to the noise in her ears.

There were anxious inquiries, eager cursing, and more dazed cries.

After all, in the past few years, these two masters and Taoist masters who have deceived the public have almost established the faith of the people of Gutong County, and the reason why the cult is called a cult is that it first subtly transformed, and when the time is ripe, it destroyed the original belief in the hearts of the people with the momentum of destroying the withering and decaying, and then reshaped an evil idea that seems ridiculous to outsiders but believers themselves are convinced.

At this time, the person who had shaped the faith of the people smelled the smell of danger and slipped away, and the faith also collapsed with this slip, so the confusion became the majority.

As for swearing, it is also a reaction after being caught off guard.

"The golden body of the Bodhisattva, the golden body is gone." Someone exclaimed.

"And the gold plate."

"The golden fruit on the altar is gone."

……

Exclamations mixed with cursing one after another, Qiao Ran looked at the swept away demon building, and wanted to turn around and leave, but at this time, the crowd was surging, and she didn't leave if she wanted to.

"Let's go." She shouted.

But in an instant, the shouts were drowned out by the crying and cursing of the crowd.

What can I do? Qiao Ran frowned, and was about to continue to say something, when a thunderclap struck her ear.

The people in the town demon tower were startled, and the previous noise immediately turned quiet.

Another thunderbolt struck, rolling past, and the sound shook people's bodies, and they only felt that the thunder seemed to sound in their ears.

This thunder must be close at hand.

At this time, some people crowded by the window shouted: "There is thunder in the sky above the county office." ”

As soon as these words came out, many people looked in the direction of the county office, and at this moment, a thunderbolt tore through the sky and hit in the direction of the county office.

What a thunderbolt from the clear sky!

"Liar, such a liar, God has eyes!" The crowd surged, Qiao Ran glanced at the direction of the county government, and the people were once again coerced by the crowd and rushed to the outside of the town demon building.

That's a good thing for her.

The moment he rushed out of the Demon Town, his side was obviously loose.

She walked on the street, a little hesitant, and then rushed to the town demon building, in fact, it was not completely without gain. This back and forth is about to come to the end of the day, calculate the time, the elite soldiers led by Bai Zhijun are riding horses again, and they should be about to reach the city gate at this time.

Just as he was thinking like this, a firework exploded in the sky from the direction of the city gate.

Fireworks during the day are really a bit wasteful. However, this fireworks are not for viewing, they are used in the military to give orders.

It seems that the people have arrived.

Qiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief: It's really a fast and windy elite iron horse, so it couldn't be better. She was about to follow the footsteps of the city gate, and turned to the direction of the county office.

……

Even though people can't see the outside outside of the county government at this time, the commotion and noise outside the city can be heard.

"Look there's something going on outside." Pei Qingqing ate sugar and walked in the corridor of the county yamen, the yamen was full of officials and miscellaneous servants who fell to the ground, and the girls who passed by eating sugar leisurely formed a sharp contrast with everyone in the dim yamen at this time, she walked past the residence where the official errand lived, and walked towards the courtyard of the county commander Wang Chunlin with Zhang Jie.

The laws of the Great Chu do not stipulate the residence of the officials, and the county government where the officials live in many places does not care, and most of them give a certain amount of money every month to let the officials find their own residence.

At this point, she had heard Miss Qiao laugh and talk about what was called "housing subsidy", although it was in the vernacular, but with her Pei Qingqing's wit, she could understand it. Miss Qiao said that if the law stipulates that accommodation should be arranged for officials, then the yamen of Chang'an City will really make many people squeeze their heads and drill into it.

Although Pei Qingqing can't empathize with this, she can also see it, for example, Miss Qiao has not bought her own house yet.

Probably everything was under control, so she thought about some miscellaneous things, and when she came back to her senses, she was listening to Zhang Xie say: "The situation above the county government is so weird, the people naturally want to invite those masters and Taoist leaders to come forward." ”

"And will they come forward?" Pei Qingqing stuck out her tongue, threw a piece of halva into her mouth, and said, "How are you going to solve this?" ”

Zhang explained: "Whether you come forward or not, Miss Qiao has a way to deal with it." But in my opinion, if the master is clever, I'm afraid he would have packed up his things and run away. ”

"What if you run away?" Pei Qingqing's eyes couldn't help but widen.

So what to do? These people don't take her with them when they discuss strategies, they really look down on children!

"General Bai, they should already be on their way here, these people can't run." Zhang explained his feet, looked up at the plaque at the door of the courtyard, and then stepped in.

I don't know if it's because I'm not worried about the officials around me, Wang Chunlin didn't see any servants in the courtyard, Pei Qingqing looked around and walked in.

"Is the person in there?" She lowered her voice and said to Zhang Jie.

Zhang Xie snorted and said, "If she didn't make a mistake, she should be inside." ”

Miscalculated? Pei Qingqing frowned, and looked at Zhang Xie dissatisfiedly: "How could Miss Qiao miscalculate?" "They came so fast. It was so unexpected that even she, the client, didn't know to do it when she set off.

Listening to the instinctive maintenance of the girl next to him, Zhang Xie smiled and walked forward with her.

When he reached the door, he stopped and said, "I always feel too quiet." Said to Pei Qingqing, "You come and listen." ”

Pei Qingqing snorted and tilted her head, she was gifted in martial arts, and her five senses were far sharper than ordinary people. After listening carefully for a while, she shook her head and said, "There is no sound, not even the breath." ”

Zhang Xie hummed, picked up the stone on the ground, and with a movement in his hand, the stone broke through the door, rolled twice on the ground, and fell silent.

The door was empty.

The bed was neatly folded, and there was no sign of anyone sleeping in it.

"No one, how can there be no one?" Pei Qingqing followed Zhang Xie into the door.

Zhang Xie walked to the drawer opened by the multi-treasure shelf, looked at the clutter in his eyes, and gasped: "It should be that I ran away after packing up my things." ”

"How is that possible?" Pei Qingqing felt very incomprehensible, "We are the only ones who know about these things, how can this Wang Chunlin run?" ”

Zhang Xie pursed his lips and was silent: To be precise, even Pei Qingqing only knew about it halfway. Only he, Qiao Ran, and Bai Zhijun knew the plan from beginning to end, and the three of them had no effort or reason to leak secrets.

Pei Qingqing is right, how is it possible?

Thinking like this, Pei Qingqing suddenly sniffed: "Something is burning." ”

Zhang Jie's face changed slightly.

……

After knowing that Bai Zhijun and his party had arrived, Qiao Ran turned back to the area around the county office, but she did not go in, but lingered outside the county office.

There were many other pedestrians who were just as frightened as she was looking, all of whom were attracted by the previous thunder.

No one dared to enter such a black and misty county office.

"What should I do?" Some people looked at the dark county government and were a little afraid, "Do you want to invite a master......

Only then did they understand that the people who had been deceived became angry: "Please be a master......

The cursing stopped abruptly halfway, and the black fog suddenly dispersed, as if a layer of clothes covering the county government was suddenly torn apart, and after it was torn, the county government was blazing.

"The county government is on fire......" someone muttered, instinctively, "...... firefighting"

"Save the a fire!" Some angry people cursed excitedly, "Burn Wang Chunlin's son of a bitch." ”

The small people in the mountains and fields don't do or are too lazy to think about complicated things, they go straight to the point, trust is true, and the resentment after discovering that they have been deceived is also true.

Therefore, as soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted a lot of response.

"That's it, even if this county government is burned down, it has nothing to do with us, burn him!"

The county lord's yamen was empty on the left and right, and it was originally to deliberately drive away the nearby people in order not to get involved with the small people, but now it's good, the county yamen caught fire, and it didn't affect others.

At this moment, a girl rushed out of the oblique thorn and threw a bucket of water into the county office.

Of course, this little bit of water can't save the fire, but everyone who watched this move was furious.

"What are you doing?" Even if the girl who was fighting the fire was stopped, someone shouted, "That Wang Chunlin is more than innocent ...... death."

"I know that he is innocent of death, but I think he is a thief who shouted to catch the thief, set the fire himself, and ran away while the fire was blowing." The girl who was fighting the fire looked ordinary, but when she opened her mouth, the people who were watching were startled.

"It's such a big fire, I can't even hear the sound inside, it's not that I've dug a tunnel and is about to run away, so I don't want to put out the fire quickly!" The girl flicked her braids as she spoke, she was not very old, and a spicy energy came to her face, and she urged loudly, "I really think that a few thunders can split Wang Chunlin and his people clean?" Don't put out the fire yet! ”

The people were stunned when they heard it, but there was a sentence that this girl was right, how could there be no movement in such a big fire? Something is wrong!

At this time, it was too late to think about the truth of the girl's words, and the people turned and ran to the nearby well and began to fetch water to put out the fire.

With the help of the people, no matter how big the fire was, it would be almost extinguished, and the gate of the county yamen was rushed open, and Qiao Ran rushed into the yamen with the people.

As far as the eye can see, it is a mess. The lantern that was originally hung at the door fell to the ground and was burned to the ground, and only the shelves remained, and the mural gallery was smoked so that it was impossible to see its original face.

His ears were filled with the curses of the people, and at this moment, he heard an exclamation.

"Someone died!"

He's dead?

As if her head had been suddenly hit by something, she stood in place, looking at the people running around, and for a moment, she seemed to be pulled to another time and space. The original emotions such as anger, eagerness, apprehension, sadness, etc., seemed to be peeled away at once, and she looked at everything in front of her blankly.

The surging people passed by her, and when they collided, Qiao Ran staggered.

"Get out of the way." The people who had struck him ran forward with a loud shout.

This collision also seemed to knock back the emotions she had been stripped of before, and her face was a little cold for some reason. She subconsciously reached out and touched the coldness on her face, opened her mouth, and her voice was astringent: "Zhang ......"

"Why are you standing here?" A familiar voice sounded behind itself.

Qiao Ran was shocked, and was silent for a moment, and the people behind her had already walked in front of her. The moment he saw her, his face changed greatly, and then he reached out to cover the coldness on her face and asked her, "Why are you crying?" ”

She slowly raised her hand to cover his, the warmth of her fingertips trembling, and she stepped forward and hugged him.

Pei Qingqing watched Zhang Xie hurriedly hugging Miss Qiao, his mouth was wide open, and he was stunned, and when he came back to his senses, he had already heard Zhang Xie comforting Miss Qiao.

The words "I'm fine", "what's going on", "don't panic, I'm here" came out of his mouth back and forth, and Su Rili's gentle tone could be called gentle at this time.

She squatted aside and watched, not knowing why she suddenly felt a little sour halva in her mouth. It's really the same as her father, Pei Qingqing sighed and looked up at the sky sadly, why should she bear something that a ten-year-old child shouldn't bear?

That packet of halva must have gone bad overnight, and it seems that it will be eaten faster in the future. Pei Qingqing put the halva back in the purse on her waist.

She didn't cough or do anything else, and for this kind of thing, a quick-witted child like her already had a lot of experience, and it was useless to do it at this time, because those two people couldn't see her at all, just like her father.

But it doesn't matter, I will always remember that there is such a person as her next to her, Pei Qingqing kicked the mud on the side.

No matter how excited her emotions are, she always has to settle down, Qiao Ran came back to her senses, stood up straight, and said in a dumb voice: "I thought it was ......"

"Think something happened to me?" Zhang Xie looked at her, and the girl's bright eyes were mixed with some low emotions.

He was a little distressed, but more than happy.

Qiao Ran nodded, and then smiled: "It's okay." She looked at him and said seriously, "It's okay." ”

Zhang Xie supported her, stood still, sighed, and spoke: "Wang Chunlin......"

Before he could say three words, he was quickly interrupted by the girl: "Who cares about that?" ”

No matter? Zhang Xie was a little surprised, but the next moment he heard the girl cough and said, "How is Wang Chunlin?" ”

It seems that it still has to be managed.

Zhang Xie smiled, and then a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes: "Wang Chunlin is gone." ”
