The street is full of lanterns made of bamboo and paper, and most of the houses on the side of the road are made of wooden planks. Now the fire is together, and the fire quickly spreads. In a few moments, the whole street was burned red.

Thanks to Liu Ce's timely response, he couldn't help but say that he turned around and pulled Ji Shangxie and ran. Coupled with the fact that the green clouds and black clouds opened the way in front, and there were Ah Miao Amai protecting them behind, they finally squeezed out the crowd and the street before the fire spread.

However, when they were on their feet, the two of them looked back. I saw that the fire had risen higher, and the whole street seemed to be ignited.

There were screams from the crowd, and countless men, women, young and old, screamed and cried out. However, there are many people. Everyone ran out regardless of each other, and someone was pushed to the ground in a panic, and a stampede occurred. And it's getting worse.

Seeing this scene, Liu Ce's eyes darkened: "Qingyun Heiyun, hurry up and follow me!" ”

"Wait!" Ji Shangxie grabbed him.

"Are you scared?" Liu Ce immediately turned around, "You just wait here." This is by the river, and the fire can't burn. If you really burn it, you will let Amai run on your back, and you will definitely be fine. ”

"No, I mean look over there." Ji Shangyi pointed not far ahead.

Liu Ce looked in the direction she was pointing, only to find that a team of centaurs had already run towards this side from afar. Some people are carrying buckets in their hands, and some people are carrying water wheels, with a huge posture of fighting fires.

And the one at the front of the group......

"It's him."

Liu Ce bowed his head.

"Now that someone has taken the initiative to help the people break the siege, do you still want to go?" Ji Shangxie asked softly.

"Go!" Unexpectedly, Liu Ce nodded without hesitation, "This kid must be just acting now, he doesn't care about the lives of the people." If I let them save people, fifty percent of the people here will trample each other to death! ”

As he spoke, he saw that the group of people had stopped outside the street, holding a waterwheel and a bucket and splashing water into it. However, this little water is completely unable to resist the raging fire. Some people were easily squeezed out, but they didn't expect to be poured by them for a while, and they became more and more overwhelmed. I don't even know where to go.

Seeing this, Ji Shangxie's heart sank suddenly.

Ji Cheng hurriedly pulled her hand: "Sister, why do I think they seem to be using these people to sacrifice?" ”

"I can see it." Ji Shangye said in a low voice.

Liu Ce quickly grabbed her shoulders and pulled her to his side: "What did you say?" What sacrifice? ”

"Witchcraft continues to this day, and since there are spells to heal and save people, of course, there are also spells to the side. This one in front of you. It's very similar to the life-swapping technique I've heard of - that is, to exchange the lives of these people for the longevity of a nobleman. The more these people die now, the more miserable they die, the longer the life of that noble person will be. "Ji Shang is heretical.

"Bastard!" Liu Ce was so angry that he scolded, "They're crazy!" Right now, these are the people of Wu Kingdom! They are all supported by these people! ”

"You also said earlier that this couple only has themselves in their hearts, and they have always been moved by their love. What can't they do to keep their love alive? Ji Shangxie said indifferently.

Liu Ce immediately shook his hand and was about to rush into the crowd.

Ji Shangxiao grabbed him again. "It's useless to just a few of you now. With so many people, whether it's evacuating a crowd or putting out a fire, a few of you are just a drop in the bucket. If they really get in, maybe they will only be able to add a few more lives to their sacrifice. ”

"And what do you think I'm going to do?" Under the blazing firelight. Ji Shangxie saw that his face was already swollen with anxiety.

She raised her eyes to look into the distance, and suddenly pointed to a tall tower not far away: "Do you have a way to send me there?" ”

Liu Ce immediately nodded. "Even if you don't have it, you have it!"

So, after just a cup of tea-

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A deafening drum beat suddenly sounded, enveloping the entire Huiji City. The people who were struggling and screaming in the firelight were also attracted by the sound and looked up one after another.

I saw that on the top of a hill in front of me, there were lanterns hanging on a tower at some point.

Under the light of the lantern. A girl in a long lake blue dress is standing in the tower, with long sleeves fluttering, skirt flying, twisting her waist and hips to make a strange dance. With her dancing, accompanied by the strange drumming around her, and the light singing voice drilled into her ears-

"Five emperors and five dragons. Descending light and wind; Widely spread moist and moist, assisted by Lei Gong; The five lakes and the four seas are the most prosperous, and the water is the most dynasty; The rune is destined for you. Tsunekawa obeys! Calling for play, dare to disobey, thunder axe is not allowed! ”

Such a soft singing voice. If it is placed on weekdays, I am afraid that people will not be able to listen to it. But tonight, it was as if it were being sung in everyone's ears. Every word drilled into the depths of their hearts.

The shouting in the crowd gradually stopped, some people stared blankly ahead, and some suddenly shouted as if they had come to their senses—"Look." There are shrine maidens praying for us for rain! ”

As a result, many fell to their knees and began to shout loudly. Plead with God for speedy rainfall.

The sky is as people wish, and just after the singing, a strong wind blew around. Immediately, the crackling raindrops fell, and gradually the raindrops became bigger and bigger, pouring the raging flames smaller and smaller.

On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a heavy rain fell on the head, which made the already wet and cold weather more and more damp and unbearable.

However, the cold raindrops hit their bodies, but the people did not feel cold at all. They just feel happy!

As the rain became heavier, more and more people knelt on the ground, bowed down to the side of the tower, and shouted: "Fairy down to earth, fairy rain, thank you fairy!" ”

"The fairy has descended! Save the people of the city from the fire! ”

Gradually, the screams went off track, and the shouts grew louder and louder.

When the last bit of fire on the street was extinguished by the rain, the rain began to light again. Someone on the side couldn't help but rush to the pavilion.

"The fairy has descended. Hurry up and meet the fairy! ”

I don't know who shouted, everyone woke up like a dream, and they didn't care about being wet from the rain. Hurriedly ran to the small pavilion on the mountain.

Seeing that Ji Shangxie finished dancing, it really attracted a heavy rain and successfully extinguished the fire, and Liu Ce finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Putting down the drum hammer in his hand, he looked back at Ji Shangxi, who was already exhausted, and nodded solemnly to her: "Thank you today for saving the people in Huiji City." ”

"You're welcome, I'm just doing what I promised you." Ji Shangye said in a low voice.

Ji Cheng carefully wiped the cold sweat on Ji Shangxie's forehead, and whispered: "Sister, it's so cold here, let's go back quickly!" You've just been sweating, so you need to change into dry clothes. ”

"Not yet. There is one more thing, we can't leave until we are done. Ji Shangxie shook his head slightly.

"What else?" Amai asked.

Ji Shangye pointed ahead: "Someone is coming." ”

Kure is located in the plains, and there are not many mountains here. The only few hills are not much different from small dirt slopes in the eyes of people who are accustomed to seeing majestic mountains. So the pavilion they were in wasn't much higher than the ground. It is naturally very easy for the people below to find it.

I don't know who led the way, but countless people flocked from the bottom of the mountain, and soon surrounded the pavilion on all sides.

"Thank you fairy for the rain and save the people in our city from danger, thank you fairy!"

An old man crawled to Ji Shangxi, shouted loudly, knelt on the ground and began to pay homage.

Ji Shangxie hurriedly pushed Liu Ce out: "Everyone wants some, thank you Shizi!" Today's prayer for rain was asked by him to do it. He is the one who really cares about you, and he took the initiative to help me beat the drums. ”

Everyone knows that the young man in front of him is their son!

So, the crowd became even more excited, and the old man hurriedly changed his words: "Thank you for your great kindness!" The son of the world cares about the people, and it is the blessing of our people! ”

"Thank you for the great grace of the prince, the son of the world is the blessing of our people!"

The people behind also knelt down and shouted excitedly.

Watching the sound of harmony and even the kneeling crowd spread out one by one, the kung fu spread far away in an instant. Liu Ce turned his head and looked at Ji Shangxie, who was looking at him with a smile next to him, his eyes darkened, and he said solemnly again: "Thank you." ”
