Chapter 61: Tonight, he lost a move

Chapter 61 Tonight, he lost a move

The fire burned bigger and bigger, and the huge Bao Hexuan groaned in the fire, crumbling.

Shi Zhongyu stood in front of Murong Ke, his heart full of fear. Fire and water are merciless, she came because she drowned, but she didn't experience much pain because she was drunk. However, this moment is different.

After hearing Murong Ke's past, she had speculated about the despair of being besieged by fire, but now that she was there, she could deeply understand the horror. Not only the heat, the burning, the helplessness, but also the oxygen carried away by the flames, suffocating made her almost crazy. She suddenly understood the feeling, and she could hear the distant sound of firefighting, but there was dead silence up close. If someone can come to save her at this time, she is willing to repay her with everything.

And she, when death was so near, was accompanied by someone, not like the five-year-old lonely child back then, nor like the fourteen-year-old boy who died in the army.

Gu Long said well: If you are not afraid of death, you don't know how terrible death is.

Now that she knew, she was so scared that she was helpless, she turned around violently and hugged Murong Ke tightly. People need to give each other the slightest strength in the face of death.

Murong Ke's body was tense, full like a bow, as if he was fighting against something. And when Shi Zhongyu threw himself into his arms, he suddenly relaxed completely.

Yes, he is afraid of fire. Although, he never admits it to others, nor does he admit it to himself. However, he was afraid of fire. It was the psychological shadow left by his childhood, the scar on his chest that crawled out of death when he was a teenager. That's why he often sets fires, not because he is willful, not because he is eccentric and bad, but because he does not allow himself to have weaknesses, he forces himself to face them.

However, it has not been successful.

Every time he saw the flames burning, although he forced himself to be calm, not to panic, and even stood still in the fire, deep down he still longed for someone to save him. Last time, Shi Zhongyu rushed in front of him, and this time, he obviously felt that this little guy was scared to death, and he suddenly changed from a rescued person to a rescuer, from a helpless person to someone else's dependence. Somehow, the stone that was pressed on my heart disappeared in an instant.

He is no longer afraid of fire. Even, he felt that fire was the most beautiful thing in the world, changing everything, destroying everything, and releasing all the power in life.

So he looked up to the sky and smiled, with great pleasure, as if for the first time in his life he had defeated an enemy on the battlefield. He knew that he would continue to win in the future

"Take the sword." He held the sword in his left hand and handed it to Shi Zhongyu.

Shi Zhongyu was already frightened by his laughter, thinking that at the moment when the two of them were about to be burned to charcoal, he would go crazy first. But when she crashed into his slightly grayish-blue eyes, those pure evil eyes, she almost did so in a daze. And in this way, she was equivalent to letting go of Murong Ke, so the latter took her with her uninjured left hand and went directly behind the counter.

"Let's run." Murong Ke laughed, and his pupils were reflected by the firelight as burgundy like red wine, sparkling and shining.

"Huh?" Shi Zhongyu was stunned.

was troubled by Murong Ke, and it seemed that death was not so fearful. But the fire was even bigger, and she felt like the ends of her hair were going to burn and curl.

Murong Ke didn't speak, and after reaching out to the counter that was not yet burning, he twisted it a few times in some way, and a big hole suddenly appeared in the ground. No, exactly, it should be an authentic mouth.

Shi Zhongyu was even more shocked, staring at the smiling man in front of him, who seemed to be in a good mood.

But the man didn't explain, stretched out his arm and caught her under the ribs, and struck her upwards with the other palm, causing the floor slab to collapse directly.

In the scream of Shi Zhongyu, Murong Ke jumped into the tunnel with her at a very fast speed, and with a backhand wave, a stone slab quickly closed to block the falling and burning roof of the beam.

It feels good to have escaped death.

In the dark, the jade eyes in the stone could not see, and they were completely led forward by Murong Ke. The feeling of escaping was really happy, but it also made her feel weak.

"There is a secret way, you don't say it earlier" After calming down, she suddenly became very angry, and she didn't care about her identity and status, so she directly blamed her.

"This king saved you, twice." Murong Ke suddenly let go, which made Shi Zhongyu a little panicked, "Who gave you the guts to shout loudly to this king." ”

"How did Your Highness know that there is a secret passage here?" Since I didn't want to beg for mercy, I didn't dare to be tough, so I had to change the topic.

"Because the boss behind Baohexuan is the king."

Shi Zhongyu took a deep breath, not that she was amazed that Bao Hexuan was originally Murong Ke's property, but that she knew secrets that she shouldn't know, and she also put herself in a dangerous situation. People live in the world, they don't listen to what they shouldn't listen to, and don't do what they shouldn't do, so that they can live a long life. But forget it, she has fallen into a center where she can't see the center of power, anyway, if there are more lice, she won't bite, and if she has more debts, she won't worry, so why don't you love it.

She felt that Murong Ke didn't mean to pull her again, and hurriedly fumbled to hold him with sleeves. It was too dark for her to tell which was his uninjured hand, and she didn't dare to scratch it.

Murong Ke was stunned and wanted to shake off the little hand, but held back.

Pulling Shi Zhongyu just now was a last resort at an urgent juncture, but now, ...... It always felt like something was wrong. He hates such a thing as a good man, and of course it is impossible to have an affair with this little family. However, Shi Zhongyu does not know martial arts and cannot see in the dark...... Forget it, just be considerate of your subordinates.

The two walked in silence, but fortunately they saw the light before long. When Shi Zhongyu was lifted to the ground, he realized that she had come out of a dry well. Not far away, the fire was blazing, and they actually stood in the backyard of the medical hall across the street from Baohexuan, called Shengshengtang.

So, this medical hall pharmacy, which is the most famous in Taifu and has branches in all Dayan, is also Murong Ke's secret industry? He earns so much money every year, and he can still make a fortune by the way when he fights, not to mention that he has been given a lot of fertile land in the imperial estate, and he is still doing business. What the hell is he going to do? So do you need money?

"Your Highness, are you alright?" Sun Fuheng came out of nowhere and asked nervously.

Murong Ke shook his head and didn't say anything else, just ordered neatly, "First, from tonight onwards, the mansion will be closed, and no one or any news will be allowed to pass it on, and it will be said to the outside world that this king is sick, but he will not find a doctor, and he will not mention life and death." Second, the secret of Bao Hexuan cannot be discovered, and it is inevitable to recover, but people must not be allowed to get in and find out about the secret passage. Third, keep an eye on all parties and not be able to expose your whereabouts, understand? ”

"My subordinates will do it." Sun Fuheng responded, glancing at Murong Ke's hand, "Your wound ......" People like them who came down from the battlefield can feel the slightest smell of blood, and it is impossible to ignore the injuries on the hands of His Royal Highness King Yu.

"It doesn't matter." Murong Ke was very indifferent to his injuries, "What about the four iron guards? ”

"Seeing that Bao Hexuan is on fire, we guess that His Highness will get out of here." Sun Fuheng said, "The four iron guards are guarding outside the door, and they will cover His Highness's return to the house later." ”

Murong Ke nodded, and walked away, without half a superfluous nonsense. He usually looks like a gentleman, but only then did he show the iron-blooded temperament of a soldier, and he was decisive in killing, and he didn't drag his feet at all.

Seeing Murong Ke's figure disappear, Shi Zhongyu hurriedly wanted to follow, but asked Sun Fuheng to stop him, "Your Highness's injured ......"

"To save me." Shi Zhongyu replied quickly, "A white fat man from Qingmen is already dead." After saying that, he hurried after him.

Sun Fuheng looked at the direction in which Shi Zhongyu disappeared, frowned, and said in his heart, "Your Highness is not a man, and he is very disgusted. But he was very interested in the stone ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
