Chapter 81: The Girl's House [Second Update]
Seeing Ji Erlan stop, Fang Qingxue and Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't help but stop and look at the couple. This time, the husband and wife performed a pan dance.
I saw that the man's broad and solid arms were open, one foot was raised, and porcelain plates of different sizes were placed on his hands and uppers, and there were small drums of different heights on the ground around him. Her wife, dressed in a golden dance dress with long sleeves flying, danced back and forth on these pans and drums, or stepped on the drums and lowered her waist, or pressed the drums upside down, and the sound of the plates was dingdong and the drums were crisp.
There were bursts of exclamations from all around, and the voices of admiration were endless for a while.
The feminine beauty and the strength of the man are kneaded together, and the unique beauty is indeed unique.
Ji Erlan's eyes were full of smiles, and she enjoyed this wonderful performance. Suddenly, she felt a beam of eyes not far away looking through the crowd. She frowned slightly, and looked across the middle court through the husband and wife, who were tiptoeing high and beating drums.
Although the man's face was also covered with a mask, Ji Erlan recognized this person at a glance.
It's Yang Zheng...... He actually changed into a moon-white robe today.
Ji Erlan wondered in her heart, in such a situation, did she need to go over and say hello? Can she pretend she didn't see it?
And Yang Zheng, standing quietly in the crowd of people dressed differently and in a chaotic manner, the noble bearing exuded from the inside out is particularly prominent. That gesture of independence coldly rejected everyone who wanted to get close to him. He clearly saw that after Ji Erlan on the other side saw him, the smile on his face suddenly converged, and then changed to a cold look.
Yang Zhen's face couldn't help but sink.
Lei Ze, who was watching the excitement on the side, felt that the air around him suddenly became low and depressed, and he was a little confused. Quickly gathered his mind and looked at his master, and asked cautiously, "What does the prince command?" ”
Yang Zhen snorted coldly and was about to speak, when suddenly a series of exclamations came from behind him. A large burst of fire suddenly rose into the sky! With billowing smoke and countless screams of rushing running!
The husband and wife who performed in the middle of the crowd were hit by the scattered crowd and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, the man hugged her in time and took her wife in his arms. However, people fleeing the flames are running around, and the already crowded streets have no way to retreat.
The maidservant guards in front and behind were unable to protect themselves at all, Ji Erlan dragged Cheng Xiaoxiao with one hand and Fang Qingxue with the other, and struggled to move towards the root of the wall. However, there were too many people around, and the three of them were overwhelmed by the crowd, and Fang Qingxue was even scared to tears.
Ji Erlan hurriedly asked Cheng Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, where is your whip?" ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao hurriedly took off the whip pinned to her waist and asked, "What should I do?" ”
Ji Erlan raised his chin slightly, pointing to a very luxuriant tree on the side of the road. The tree was unusually thick, and its outstretched branches almost covered the top of their heads. "You whip out the branches over there, and then pull the snow up together, and I'll drag you behind."
"What about you?!" Although Cheng Xiaoxiao is more courageous than Fang Qingxue, in such a situation, she has already lost her proportions.
"Don't worry about me yet, it's easier for me to get out by myself when you're safe." As he spoke, the fire seemed to spread a little more, and the crowd began a new round of commotion. Ji Erlan urged: "Xiaoxiao, hurry up." ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't dare to talk any more nonsense, she pulled Fang Qingxue tightly with one hand, and with the other wrist, the scarlet long whip was thrown out violently, and at the same time, her body came out of the crowd with a kick under her feet. Ji Erlan put his hands on Fang Qingxue's waist, and the two of them flew up to the thick branches of the big tree. Cheng Xiaoxiao helped Fang Qingxue to stand firmly, and when she looked back, Ji Erlan had been squeezed out in an instant, and she couldn't throw the whip out and pull her up. "Erlan!"
Seeing that Ji Erlan was squeezed out under their noses, they had nothing to do.
The two of them looked at the place where the incident had happened in the distance, where a large open space had been vacated, and it seemed that a miscellaneous artist, when he performed the fire spitting, his whole body was burning for some reason, and their companion was still panicking and trying to save him, but there was no large amount of water around to extinguish the fire on the man's body. The man could only roll and howl on the ground in a frenzy.
And the fire on his body gradually ignited the surrounding curtains and other objects, and the fire actually spread very quickly.
Fang Qingxue saw that the person's body had been burned black, and his shape was very miserable, so frightened that he almost fell off the tree. Cheng Xiaoxiao grabbed her tightly, and turned to look for Ji Erlan's figure in the crowd.
This Ji Erlan was pushed by the crowd, she didn't know where she was squeezed, she wanted to jump out of the crowd, but the crowd staggered and couldn't stand on her feet. There have even been people who have tripped and trampled on the soles of their feet during the retreat, and I am afraid that their lives may not be saved.
Although Ji Erlan is taller than her peers, she is only a fourteen-year-old girl after all, and in the middle of a group of adults, it is difficult to even look out.
She listened intently to her surroundings, looking for any familiar sounds. However, the noise in my ears was so loud that I couldn't hear anything. She almost thought to herself how nice it would be if these people were bad people, so she pulled out her bone knife and killed them all, and there would be nothing left!
Just when she was thinking nonsense, a deep and deep voice remembered in her ear: "At this time, you still have the mind to wander?" ”
Ji Erlan turned around in surprise, and saw Yang Zhen's eyes full of anger, and then his arm was grabbed vigorously, and the person turned around half a circle and was rolled into an embrace. Yang Wei said: "Follow the crowd, go over there first, and jump to that wall." ”
Ji Erlan didn't have time to answer him, so he followed the direction he was heading, and was pressed against his warm chest, leaning over a little bit. Fortunately, they seemed to have been squeezed far away, almost out of the bustling and lively streets of the West Market, and the crowd was finally no longer as restless as just now, Yang Zhen hugged Ji Erlan tightly and jumped directly onto the high wall.
For the first time, Ji Erlan was protected by a man so gentle and brutal. For some reason, her heart tightened and was very uncomfortable, she didn't like this feeling very much, as if her heart had been pulled hard. Therefore, as soon as her feet touched the ground, she immediately broke away from Yang Zhen's embrace and moved two steps into the distance. "Thank you!"
Yang Zhen was resisted so bluntly, but he was not angry, looking at her embarrassed appearance, he showed a little smile. "Your two handmaidens have been taken to safety by Razor, you can rest assured."
Ji Erlan nodded, his mood had returned to normal, and said, "I'll go back to find Xiaoxiao and Qingxue now, what about the prince?" ”
"I'll go with you, lest anything trouble come to you."
Ji Erlan was a little angry by today's accident, and only felt that he was in harmony with Xishi, and subconsciously wanted to say, 'No need', but after thinking about it, Twilight Rain and the others were still with Lei Ze. I swallowed this sentence and said 'um'.
The two of them followed the high wall and went all the way back, and Ji Erlan couldn't help but be surprised: was unknowingly squeezed so far?
After two pillars of incense, Ji Erlan finally returned to the place where he had been scattered before, and there were not many people around Cheng Xiaoxiao and Fang Qingxue, and Lei Ze and the others were also with them.
As soon as Cheng Xiaoxiao saw Ji Erlan, she immediately jumped down from the tree with Fang Qingxue, and cried loudly: "Erlan! Are you okay? It's good that you're okay, we're going to die of worry! ”
Lei Ze said helplessly: "I said let these two follow us to a safe place first, and then I will order someone to find Miss Ji." But these two had to say that Miss Ji would definitely come back to look for her, for fear that she wouldn't find it, so she refused to leave, so she just kept standing on the tree. The subordinates had to wait here with them. ”
Yang Zhen nodded, and watched in amazement as a large group of people surrounded Ji Erlan and touched him, asking if he was injured. I can't help but be a little surprised. The two ladies of the Fang family and the Cheng family, as well as these maidservants, didn't they all get acquainted after she went to Beijing? Why is she so magical, so genuinely missed?
Lei Ze looked at this group of people, and was actually a little moved, and said: "Lord Wang, the feelings of this girl's family are more delicate. ”
Yang Zheng glanced at him, since he met Ji Erlan, his subordinates have become mothers-in-law.
He stepped forward and said to Ji Erlan, "I'm going to see if there's anything unusual about that corpse." Are you going or not? ”
Ji Erlan nodded, and led everyone to the place where the incident occurred.
The fire had been extinguished, and the charred corpse lay curled up in the clearing, motionless, and if it were not a person, no one would be able to tell. A man and two women sat on the ground panting, looking at the corpse in horror and unable to speak. Partners who should perform juggling together.
Yang Zhen frowned, standing a foot away from the corpse with his hands in his hands, and Ji Erlan's footsteps stopped not far away. Razor looked at the two who were speechless, touched his nose, and stepped forward to check the charred corpse with great interest.
Because there was no water around after the fire, this person was directly burned to death, and he couldn't see anything at all. He had no choice but to ask a man and two women who were not far away: "Are you four performing a vaudeville together?" ”
The man and the woman didn't seem to hear his question=, and they didn't even seem to notice the group of people standing around, just staring at the pitch-black charcoal on the ground, stunned. Lei Ze was helpless, signaled to the guards around him, and woke up the three people, as soon as the guards moved, they saw one of the women suddenly burst out with a terrible scream, and pounced in front of Coke: "Da Lang! ”
