For Murong Mian, it is not difficult to attack Su City, he has calculated everything and is confident. But he never thought that the city was broken, but that damn Yan Shouyi actually set fire to the city in order to cover his escape.

The gates of the city were opened, and the flames were blazing, and the people wailed all over the wilderness, like purgatory.

He was so angry that his face turned blue, and he didn't care about chasing and fighting, and it was important to put out the fire first to appease the people.

He took advantage of the east wind to break the city. strictly guarded righteousness, but took advantage of the east wind to burn the city. The fire spread quickly, and the light of the fire reflected half of the sky. The people of the city were so stunned by the fire that they scurried like flies without their heads. In the chaos, there are countless people who are trampled on or smoked. Regardless of whether the fallen person was dead or not, they all swarmed and trampled on his body. The fire is still burning, but what is more terrible than the fire are the people who have lost their minds.

Fortunately, the king of Chu and the crown prince are both people who are in danger, one is responsible for putting out the fire, and the other is responsible for maintaining order.

The frightened people ran to the place where there was no fire, but they did not know that there was only a dead end when they ran past, and the prince transferred a team of men and horses to stop the chaotic crowd and rush to the ruined area after the fire, which was a mess and smelled bad, but it was relatively safe.

The king of Chu led people to extinguish the fire, but the manpower was obviously insufficient, so he dispatched a small team of people to the surrounding villages and towns to ask for support. said that it was a request, but in fact it was a death order, and they had to go, greedy for life and afraid that the dead would be killed.

No one wanted to be beheaded, and it was incumbent upon them to obey the order, and hurried to the city to help, taking buckets, shovels, soaked quilts, etc.

Only men were recruited. Women, children, and the elderly are all staying at home, and there are too many people to do anything, and it is a waste of time to go. Bai Qianfan's house is naturally her going, Laurel Yuexiang is very worried, the King of Chu is in the city, what if she encounters it?

Bai Qianfan comforted them, "The black light is blind, who can see whom." It doesn't matter, I'll come back when the fire is extinguished. ”

She was dressed in a short gown and leggings, which made her look neat and neat. Standing in the yard, she could see the fire, such a big fire, extinguished with water, afraid that it would be helped, she picked up a shovel at home, and ran out at night.

When he arrived at the gate of the city, he felt that the heat wave was coming, Bai Qianfan hurriedly covered his face with a wet cloth, and followed the crowd inside, there were many people in the city and chaos, there was a team of officers and soldiers cleaning up the corpses on the ground, marking a place, and the corpses were carried over and placed on the ground. If they saw so many corpses in normal times, the people would definitely scream in fuss, but this night, everyone's expressions were very solemn, and they didn't even take a second look, and silently and orderly obeyed the arrangement to go to fight the fires everywhere.

Bai Qianfan was arranged in front of a small building, the houses in the south are different from those in the north, there are many small buildings with two or three floors on the street, and they are all connected together, and they are a large area when burned.

Fortunately, there is a pond behind the house, many people took buckets and poured water on the fire, but the fire was too big, the water could not last, and the effect was not great, Bai Qianfan shoveled the wet sand and mud with a shovel and threw it into the fire, but it had a little effect, so some people gave up the bucket and found branches to put out the fire, there was water in the branches and leaves, and they could not burn, only smoked, and finally suppressed the fire a little bit.

A group of people were tired, and a group of people went up again, Bai Qianfan didn't go down, the handkerchief on her face had already been dried by the fire, and she was soaked with her own sweat, so many times, she was also exhausted, her hands were so heavy that she couldn't lift it, the shovel was snatched away by the people on the side, and she was reprimanded unceremoniously, "Don't die, go while resting." ”

Such a familiar voice, Bai Qianfan was stunned for a moment, stunned.

The man was dressed in armor, tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but his face was smoked with black marks, which looked a little funny, he didn't look at her, he grabbed the shovel and bent down to shovel the mud and sand, waving his strong arms, shovel after shovel of mud and sand was thrown into the fire, and the arrogant tongue of fire was slowly pressed down until the lack of oxygen was extinguished.

Bai Qianfan looked at him silently, turned to leave, and suddenly heard him say, "Stop." ”

She paused and stopped there, and the man came over and handed her a shovel: "You don't want your things?" ”

She didn't dare to look up, reached out to take it, turned around and left, but his arm was grabbed by him, and he stared at her tightly, looking a little puzzled.

"Picked something off your face."

She hesitated and didn't move, but he took it himself, gently took off the handkerchief on her face, and the expression on his face changed from doubt to surprise: "It's you!" ”

Bai Qianfan hurriedly made a silent gesture and signaled him to keep quiet.

Du Changfeng looked left and right, pulled her aside, and whispered, "Why are you here?" Does the prince know? ”

"Don't say you've seen me."

"You don't want the prince to know?"

Bai Qianfan shook his head.

"Don't want to see him?"

How to say it, the mood is too complicated, and she can't say it for a while. Fear is one thing, she is the princess of Chu who has fled, and with Murong Mian's temper, it is not impossible to kill her in a fit of anger. Resentment is one thing, Huangfu Zhu'er is still there, she, the princess of Chu, has become a joke, and there is another case, she hides it deep in her heart, no one knows, but she knows it, it is called lovesickness.

She is actually not a person who knows how to hide it, but she has hidden it from anyone because of her thoughts about Murong Mian. I used to think that death was the most painful, because that person was buried in the ground and would never be seen again. But now I know that compared to death, life and separation are unbearable.

When the person died, he was sad, accepted the facts, and slowly came out.

People are alive, they can see but they can't see it, that kind of taste, like being slowly gnawed by ants, endlessly, endlessly, because she knows that he is in this world, just somewhere, she wants to go to see him countless times, lying in bed at night, suddenly she turns over and sits up, wants to go to him, even if he really kills her, and wants to look at him again, that thought came out, she can't stop, she put on her clothes, shoes and socks and walked to the door, and even once opened the courtyard door and went to the street, but in the end, she didn't make it once.

Countless times of entanglement and hesitation have become the cowardice of her hometown, and she really doesn't dare to see him, she doesn't dare.

Du Changfeng looked at this girl he once liked deeply, and couldn't help sighing, he didn't know what was going on between King Chu and Bai Qianfan, he only knew that she was leaving for the woman next to King Chu. When he heard the news of her leaving, he was very excited for a while, and he also imagined that maybe one day, they could meet again and continue the relationship, but now that he saw her, he knew that it was impossible, and her heart was still on Murong Mian.

He was always responsive to her, so he promised to keep it a secret. Touching her head, he smiled, "I've grown taller." ”

Bai Qianfan turned his head sideways and said goodbye to him: "I'll go first." ”

"Okay, take care."

"So are you." She smiled, picked up the iron and disappeared into the night, and walked not far, when she heard someone calling Du Changfeng, it was Jia Tong's voice, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickened her pace.
