Chapter 576: Several Speculations
() Smoke billowed and flames filled the dark night sky, and the flames swept its minions with impunity, spreading and devouring everything.
The people on the kang soon became a burning fireball, and they jumped off the kang in a hurry and threw themselves in the direction of the exit, and when they were about to approach, they were engulfed by a larger sea of fire.
There is no way to survive, so you can only struggle, fight, scream in the sea of fire, and feel miserable...... Eventually, it fell down little by little, and there was no sound again.
At this moment, a vague figure came to her.
She held on to her last breath and reached out to ask for help.
A pair of eyes glowing with murderous intent suddenly appeared on the face of the mist, and then he raised his long sword, and a sword pierced her heart!
The pain of the blade piercing her heart made her convuls, but she couldn't say a word.
Seeing the blood flowing out of her chest and flowing all over the ground, even the sea of fire in her body was dyed red, and every cluster of flames turned into hideous faces, and attacked her with a bloody mouthβ
"Sister Xiaoyu, Sister Xiaoyu ......"
Hu Ximei was very scared when she saw Ji Yu sweating profusely and babbling in her sleep, and shouted several times to no avail, so she could only start pushing it.
"Wake up, little sister!"
Ji Yu sat up suddenly, staring blankly ahead, like a person who had been saved from drowning, gasping for air with greed, and at the same time, one hand unconsciously probed to his heart.
It's okay, it's okay...... There are no swords, and there are no blood holes.
"Sister Xiaoyu, are you having a nightmare?"
Hu Ximei brought her a bowl of cold warm boiled water, and her tone was very worried.
Ji Yu took it and drank it in one go, and the feeling of being scorched by thick smoke in her throat was barely suppressed.
"It's okay, where's your mother?"
"My mother sleeps in her room."
The courtyard of the Hu family has been renovated, and Hu Ximei now has her own room, and Ji Yu is lying on her kang right now.
"My mother can't wake up when she screams, and you just ...... like that Sister Xuelan went to ask for a doctor, and she is coming back soon. β
After Ji Yu and Widow Xie were found by the people who went to fight the fire last night, because they were thinly dressed and barefoot, and most of them were gentlemen at the scene, they couldn't help much if they stayed, so they were sent back to the Hu family.
Maybe the effect of the medicine is still there, both of them are not in good condition, and they fell asleep after arriving at Hu's house for a while.
Ji Yu still feels that the side of her temple is rising.
"Has the fire been saved? Forget it, I'll go check ......"
"Rest honestly, the fire is out!"
Ji Xuelan happened to come in with the old doctor, and when she saw that Ji Yu was about to get off the kang, she hurriedly pressed her back on the kang.
The old doctor looked at it and said that there was no big problem, and he prescribed a prescription to calm his mind, and he was taken by Hu Ximei to see Widow Xie.
"The fire is so big, is it really extinguished? How's it going? You're not hurt, are you? She looked outside the house and saw that the sky was already white, and suddenly became anxious, "No, I still have to find Dabao, and I have to go to the county government......
"What can you do when you go out? Listen to me. β
Ji Xuelan glared and forcibly stopped her from getting off the kang.
"The fire is really big, but fortunately you are close to the creek, and there are many people who go, and it is extinguished when the sky is dark, and no one is hurt. But it's not easy to clean up now, the bricks under the bottom are hot, your uncle said, wait for the afternoon to bring someone over to clean up......
The fire must have started from the stove room, and it burned the most in the three rooms of the main house...... The backyard was fine. Thanks to the fact that it was originally built with bricks, it would be a rough house or a thatched house, and I really can't think of it. β
There was a lot of firewood piled up in the stove room, and if you poured oil from the oil tank on it, you could immediately burn a large piece of firewood. No matter how much the house is built of bricks, but the beams, doors and windows are made of wood, it is impossible to escape the end of the collapse of the wall and the collapse.
So Ji Yu is not too optimistic.
Ji Xuelan continued: "The group of firefighters have been let go back to rest, and the remaining group in the workshop went to the back mountain early in the morning, and they can always see more clearly during the day, but ......"
Ji Yu knew what her pause meant, so she didn't give up, and asked in a dumb voice: "Have you found all those ditches and bumps, as well as the bottom of the mountain col?" Looking for it carefully? β
"I have searched for everything, and everything that is hidden and may be hidden has been revisited."
There is nothing dangerous in the back mountain, otherwise the villagers would not dare to let the children go up the mountain to play, herd cattle and sheep. After such a long time and such a big movement, if Dabao is really still in the back mountain, it is impossible to find it.
In other words, people should really not be here.
Although Ji Xuelan didn't say it explicitly, Ji Yu heard what it meant, and her already not very good face turned a little pale.
"Don't worry too much, Xu Laifu has already taken people to the Yeyang County Ya, and when the official is reported, the government will search and arrest him."
This seems to be the only way to do it at the moment.
Ji Xuelan didn't want her to be too uncomfortable, so she changed the topic.
"What the hell is going on? Why did it catch fire? Do you think it will be ......?"
She paused, her face grimacing.
Ji Yu shook her head: "It's not the Ji family." β
Ji Xuelan quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter how much she has a knot in her heart for Ji Qingshan and Mrs. Kang, she doesn't want them to be such unconscionable people.
"You don't know, I just asked the doctor to come back, and I was stopped by the Zhu family at the gate. She pulled me and asked me to tell you, this time it's really none of her business, Dabao was not abducted by her, and the fire was not set by her...... I thought she was a thief. β
Zhu can't be afraid, she has a criminal record, so when she heard the news that Dabao was lost again, she was restless like grass.
She doesn't care about Dabao's life or death at all, but she is afraid that Ji Yu will rely on her again, after all, she is the most suspicious.
Think that a shrewd person like Ji Xiu'e has been killed by her, she is like this......
This matter was put in my heart, and the food was not fragrant, and I couldn't sleep, so I couldn't wait to go out and help find a good talent, and I was afraid that others would say that she was a thief and shouted to catch a thief, and she didn't have a good conscience.
Spread pancakes on the kang until the second half of the night, will be a little sleepy, and I heard that Ji Yu's house was burned.
She felt that something had gone wrong, especially Ji Yu didn't go to the Ji family for the first time, so don't you hold back some big moves, right?
The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, and when I heard that Ji Yu was coming to the Hu family, I ran to "shout injustice" as soon as possible to prove my innocence.
"It's not the Zhu family either."
Ji Xuelan looked at Ji Yu strangely.
"You are so sure, do you know who it is?"
Ji Yu didn't know.
But she hadn't forgotten what the two men in black had said that those who came to assassinate her were dead.
If it weren't for the big family, the dead would definitely not be able to afford it.
Everyone......
Ji Yu suddenly had a guess in her heart.
Could it be that those people who wanted to kill Guan Shan found this and found that Guan Shan was not there, so they killed her?
Wrong......
If those people can find out that Guan Shan is living here, they should also be able to find out her relationship with Guan Shan, then it should be clear that it is more advantageous to catch her than to kill her.
Also, it doesn't make sense to kidnap Dabao. Da Bao Ke can't threaten Guan Shan, he can only threaten her.
Was it for her to be killed?
Ji Yu felt that she had not offended such a great character.
is the Bai family, at most, they will make some tricks behind their backs, and they will not be bold enough to kill. Even if you dare, at most, you will send some martial artists, which is far from the standard of a dead soldier.
Thinking about it carefully, only Wen Rushu and the Marquis of Hanchang Mansion have appeared recently......
Although Wen Rushu hated it, she didn't seem to have murderous intent towards her.
As for the Mansion of the Marquis of Hanchang -
Although the housekeeper showed full sincerity, Ji Yu hadn't forgotten the attitude of Mama Yao, could it be the person behind Mama Yao?
But the problem is still with Dabao, kill her, kill her, why is there any need to do it to Dabao?
Of course, there is another possibility.
That is, it was two groups of people who killed people and set fire and kidnapped Dabao, and they happened to collide together.
The person who killed her may be related to the Marquis of Hanchang's mansion, and what was the purpose of the person who kidnapped Dabao?
Ji Yu's heart moved.
When I am so old, someone will come to the door to recognize my relatives, so big treasure......
She has always felt that Dabao is not like an ordinary child, coupled with the origin of him and his grandfather, and the earthen house that suddenly collapsed without warning......
"Cousin, you can find some people and let them help clean up the earthen house."
Ji Xuelan was puzzled: "If you don't clean up your own house, why do you suddenly want to clean up the earthen house?" β
"I have my own reasons, so it's not convenient to say for the time being."
Ji Xuelan didn't ask any more, got up and went to make arrangements.
