The footsteps rumbled, and the roof tiles on both sides of the street hummed.

Some of the people who were gathered on the side of the street to watch the excitement saw that the officers and soldiers had moved, and at first they gave way one after another, and then they didn't know who got up, and they also went home to pick up the scoop, carry the bucket, and ran towards Huairentang.

At this time, the fire was still more than 200 zhang away from the Yixin Hall, and it was completely too late to demolish the houses that were not on fire before the fire burned and stopped the fire from moving westward.

The guards wielded knives and axes, cutting off the pillars and beams of the houses, and the heavy eaves and tiles of the medical hall collapsed one by one in the huge smoke and dust, and smashed into a huge deep pit on the ground.

The people who came to help spontaneously carried sacks full of earth and sand and stones, stacked them on top of the ruins, and built a long earthen wall.

Huairentang, which used to be a prosperous and busy scene, was unrecognizable at this time, only the collapsed ruins and gray earthen walls remained, and many doctors hid their faces and wept, and even the unrelated people were not left to sigh when they saw this.

Jiang Yue had already lost his sadness at this time: the disaster has come, and no matter how sad and sad his relatives are, it is useless.

After arranging the defense of the Western Front, Jiang Yue hurried to the Autumn and Winter Gardens and commanded the evacuation of the personnel.

Jiang Yue was promoted quite quickly among the many leaders in Changjiabao, with a single resume and a smooth life, and almost never suffered any setbacks.

Unlike other masters, such as Mo Yichan, he started as a small steward in Yangzhou Shangyitang, and successively transferred to many positions such as steward, accountant, and head of many halls, and his footprints were all over Shandong, Zhili, Bashu, Yunnan and Guizhou, and almost half of the territory of the Southern Dynasty was run over.

During his tenure of office, he experienced all the unfortunate things imaginable, such as drought and flood disasters, the disaster of soldiers and bandits, and the disaster of ground movement. In the end, he was thrown by Chang Jihai to Jiankang and became the chief head of Gu'an Hall.

Jiang Yue firmly supports and obeys any decision made by Chang Jihai, and will never be questioned. However, it was not until this time that he truly understood Chang Jihai's foresight and wisdom in personnel arrangements.

If the person in charge of Huairentang's affairs in Chuzhou at this moment was Mo Yichan, in the face of these ensuing situations, his reaction would definitely be much calmer than his own, and his response would be much wiser.

Only a person like Mo Yichan, who is accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, has a firm mind, and is skilled in human feelings, can take care of Gu'an Hall smoothly and impressively in a place like health, where the powerful gather and the relationship is intricate.

Jiang Yue is not incapable, but what he has is the talent to keep the success, not the talent to control the chaos. That's why Chang Jihai will put him in a stable and smooth place like Chuzhou, not seeking great merit, but seeking no fault, focusing on morality, and slowly accumulating the reputation and heritage of Huairentang.

However, Chang Jihai did not expect that a few decades later, there would be a once-in-a-century plague in Chuzhou City. I didn't expect that my grandson would bring a controversial Ming Palace woman into Huairentang and cause such an unwarranted disaster.

Jiang Yue has too little experience, and it is inevitable that he will be chaotic when encountering problems, but fortunately, he is strict with himself, encourages self-reflection, and is a person who is very easy to realize his mistakes. After a brief emotional breakdown, he immediately cheered up and made up for his dereliction of duty.

The heads of each house and the housekeepers, big and small, were sent to their respective positions. After the initial panic and chaos, the order gradually stabilized.

However, the fire is still difficult to contain.

In the Winter Garden, which is less than 100 zhang away from the East Medicine Depot, half of the houses are already in flames. The huge tongue of fire resembled a red fire dragon that crept and meandered over the house, swirling with the wind, engulfing and growing, leaving only a charred black remnant in its pass.

The lotus tiles on the roof are not resistant to high temperatures, making a crackling and exploding sound, like half of fried beans bouncing off, falling and hurting people.

The joints of the beams and columns in the center of the house were burned off, and several beams fell down together, and the roof tiles fell down like hailstones, and there were also rafters, kissing beasts, hanging fish and other components smashed down one by one.

The falling object from a high altitude was so powerful that a scream was immediately heard.

Jiang Yue led people to splash water on the periphery, but the fire was too big and the water turned into smoke. The water bladders thrown into it exploded one after another, which slowed down the fire a little, but it could only be slowed down for a while, and could not be completely extinguished.

There was a cry and shouting in the housing estate, and people fled with rolling and crawling. Falling, stepping on and hurting I don't know how many times, it's a miserable scene in the world.

Li Zhe was in a hurry, and when he saw that splashing water didn't work, he threw the hose directly and rushed in with the guards to save people. It doesn't matter whether it's a man or a woman, they catch someone when they see it, and when they come out, they have one on their shoulders, one in their hands, and one under their armpits, and when they reach a safe place, they throw people on the ground and rush back to save people. The bluffing Jiang Fan hurriedly stopped him: "Ah Zhe, they are all seriously ill people, and they can't fall." ”

Li Zhecai can't manage so much, it's time to save one more. People with muscles and bones, and they are not glass bottles, is it difficult to be careful to handle them?

There is really a sick and weak body, who can't fall down, and has been burned by smoke and fire in it for so long, and I am afraid that I will not survive, it is better than being burned to death. still went his own way, although he was rude and reckless, but because he ran back and forth fast, he carried a lot of piggyback, back and forth, and indeed saved a lot of people.

In Chang Qianfo's plan, the east of the Yixin Hall is to be abandoned. And according to this momentum, the two gardens in autumn and winter and the large corridor houses in the vicinity will not last long. The rescued patients cannot stay for long.

Li Xiaoxiao and Cui Xiaomeng rushed to the Western Medicine Depot and drove more than a dozen six-horse-drawn trucks over, and the guards hurriedly lifted people up and drove west.

At this time, Li Ting and Li Jinshan had stabilized the situation in the west, led people to set up tents in the open field, and set up a temporary resettlement site.

As soon as they saw a car coming, a group of doctors rushed up and carried the patient out of the car for rescue. Although there was a lack of physical strength and did not carry it halfway, most of them were saved.

At this time, many people in the surrounding area, either spontaneously helping each other, or being encouraged by money, also rushed to help fetch water and carry stretchers. The hall was full of running figures.

Liangqing and the iron guards did not participate in the firefighting, but scattered in various corners of the front hall and backyard to observe if there was any abnormality.

This fire is not a natural disaster, if someone has bad intentions, when this chaos is a good time to fish in troubled waters. The guards of Huairentang were all sent to save people, and the burden of protecting the safety of the people of Changjiabao fell on the iron guards.

Yang Ye escaped from the fire with Du Simian on his back, and immediately returned to the East Medicine Depot to save people. Du Simian was taken over by Lou Zhong.

Not long after, a thousand soldiers that Ling Fu had borrowed from Fang Xian also arrived.
