At nightfall, on the bank of a river embankment a few hundred meters away from Green Snake Village, more than a dozen men in black tights, wearing masks on their faces, lined up.

"Do you understand what I told you just now?"

Xu Huairou crossed her arms and stood in front of the team, her pretty face a little serious in the night.

"Miss, I don't understand...... a tall man came out of the team, he arched his hand towards Xu Huairou, and said in a deep voice: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year's Eve is the most important festival of the year for many people, do we really want to do this......

"Xu Zhenbo!" Xu Huairou's expression was furious, and a butterfly-shaped mark on her forehead appeared from time to time. She reprimanded, "As retainers, you just need to obey orders. Could it be that you don't even listen to me? ”

The man in black known as Xu Zhenbo took a step back and lowered his head, "Don't dare." ”

"Go ahead." Xu Huairou waved his hand, "You only have twenty minutes, and after twenty minutes, there can't be half a living person in the Green Snake Village." ”

"Yes!" Xu Zhenbo replied, waved his big hand, and said to the people behind him: "Follow me!" ”

On the largest street in Green Snake Village, Bai Baihua and Liu Hui stood on the side of the road, looking at Bai Yueling and seven or eight little children playing eagles and catching chickens from a distance, with a smile on their faces.

"Xiao Ling is actually very cute except for being mean-mouthed sometimes." Liu Hui chuckled, "I just like a lively girl like her, chattering, energetic, with her, I will never feel bored." ”

Bai Tianhua sighed slightly in his heart, he actually planned to match Li Changjing and Bai Yueling at the beginning, but he didn't expect Liu Hui to run out halfway, and Bai Yueling also had a very good impression of him, although he was a brother, although he was not the kind of old-fashioned person, and he would not object on the surface, but he would inevitably have some regrets in his heart.

"Xiaoling, she has been spoiled by the elders in the family since she was a child, so some princesses are sick." Bai Baihua also smiled: "Although she has a strong mouth, she is actually very kind-hearted, if someone can tolerate her little temper and take good care of her in the future, I will have nothing to say as a brother." ”

Liu Hui heard that Bai Baihua was referring to something else, and laughed, "Brother Hua, don't worry, with me Liu Hui here, I will never let Xiaoling be wronged and bullied in the future." ”

Bai Baihua nodded and didn't say anything more.

"That's right, Brother Hua." Liu Hui's eyes flashed, and he suddenly asked in a low voice, "You and Xiaoling...... Actually, it's from the Mending Heaven Clan, right? ”

Bai Baihua's face changed, "I don't understand what you're talking about." ”

Liu Hui snorted, and said: "Brother Hua, don't be nervous, I also read it from the book, saying that such a rare and magical thing as Scorpion Stone is only available in the Mending Heaven Clan, and I don't know if it's true or not." ”

Bai Baihua frowned without a trace, and forced a smile: "Of course we are not some Heaven Replenishing Clan, that Scorpion Stone was just picked up by accident. ”

Liu Hui nodded, and was about to echo it, but saw Lu Li hurrying from the other side of the village, shouting as he ran: "Brother Bai, Brother Liu, I have already found the location of the treasure!" ”

Bai Bai Hua and Liu Hui looked at each other, treasures? Is there really a treasure in this village? That willful and domineering Miss Xu, what she said is true?

Lu Li ran in front of the two of them, and could see that he was running in a hurry, sweating profusely, panting, pointing to the direction he had just come, and said excitedly: "Hurry up and follow me, the treasure I found is really too precious, you will definitely like it!" ”

Liu Hui and Bai Baihua's faces were pleasantly surprised, and they asked, "What kind of treasure is it, can you tell me more specifically?" ”

"There's no time!" Lu Li said anxiously: "The location of the treasure is still far from here, when I come back, someone has already found out, you hurry up and call Miss Xiaoling, let's go over together, and explain to you slowly on the way." ”

Seeing that he was serious, it didn't look like a fake, and they did feel a little itchy about that treasure in their hearts, so they didn't hesitate at the moment, called Bai Yueling, and the three of them followed Lu Li and hurriedly ran towards the outside of the village.

It was about half past eight in the evening.

Like many places, the green snake village under the night, filled with a lively and festive atmosphere, the Spring Festival is more grand than the Mid-Autumn Festival, many young people who work in other places, naturally go home one after another, take advantage of the rare holiday or special leave to come back, and relatives to live a few days of reunion.

In the streets and alleys of the village, you can see some half-grown children running everywhere, wearing the new clothes bought by their parents, and comparing them with their peers to see whose shoes have brighter nightlight and whose padded jackets are thicker; Or simply get together, hide from the elders at home, sneak to the commissary, buy a bunch of fireworks, and put them away from home, with a happy smile on their faces, and calculate how to spend the New Year's money they get tomorrow.

A small village with only thirty or forty households, although it is very ordinary, it is also very warm and full of New Year's flavor.

But all of a sudden, I don't know which family in the village shouted, "It's on fire, it's on fire!" ”

The sound was very sharp and loud, and it reverberated in the night sky, and immediately caused a riot in the homes of several nearby people, and the adults who were eating or chatting in the houses came out to see what was happening.

Just then, more shouts began to sound nearby, "Fire, fire, hurry up and put out the fire!" ”

Accompanied by the pungent smell of gasoline, clusters of raging fires began to rise all over the village, and for a moment the screams of women, men, and children resounded all over the world.

In less than ten minutes, the whole village was already in flames, and in the billowing smoke, the panicked villagers ran out of the house like crazy and fled towards the outside of the village.

In the midst of the chickens and dogs, some villagers saw that this was a man-made fire, except for the strong smell of gasoline in the air, the fire was basically burning around the edge of each house, and the road was unobstructed, as if it was specially designed to force everyone out of the house.

But even so, no one dared to stay in the village, after all, the fire has no eyes, and it has not spread to the houses for a while, it does not mean that it will not burn out, there are a lot of combustible things in the village, especially some firewood stacks piled up in the corridor of the house, once they are infected with a little spark, causing a bigger fire, and then it will be too late to run.

No one dared to leave anything to chance, and no one dared to stay at home anymore, and in less than twenty minutes, everyone had basically escaped from the village, gathered on the riverside outside the village, and looked at the fire that almost stained half of the sky from a distance.

"Miss Yu, what you told us to do has been done."

On the other side of the village, a man in black named Xu Zhenbo arched his hand towards Xu Huairou and reported it. Behind him, more than a dozen men dressed in black put the empty gasoline barrels at their feet and said nothing.

"No villagers were hurt, right?" Xu Huairou looked at the burning village and asked with a frown.

Xu Zhenbo hesitated for a moment and responded, "I'm not sure." However, we have already controlled the scale when we set the fire, and as long as anyone can walk, they should be able to escape. ”

Xu Huairou snorted.

It's just that she quickly turned around, looked in the direction of the Ruan family's mansion with a cold face, and snorted: "Miss Ben has already done what she should do, if you dare to die, I will immediately return to Daye City and demolish your broken shop!" ”
