Chapter 21: Huaishu Village (4)
The scattered villagers ran out of a few dozen meters and looked back, and the location of the big locust tree seemed to be hidden by a thick fog, and they couldn't see anything clearly.
It was getting darker and darker, and everyone went home in the face of a rainstorm.
Li Siyu heard the sound of footsteps running around outside the door at home, and his heart was like a cat scratching the ground, very unsteady.
As soon as I opened the gate of the small courtyard, I happened to see Granny Wang's daughter-in-law Zhang Lanlan passing by the door, so she stopped and asked about the situation.
Zhang Lanlan told her that the fire brigade had put out the fire, and there was nothing to do, and the big guys were all scattered.
If there's nothing going on, why hasn't Lear come back? Li Siyu said to his grandparents and ran towards the entrance of the village.
In the distance, Li Siyu saw three people doing something under the big locust tree.
Lear heard the voice, looked back, and yelled anxiously, "Don't come here!" ”
"Who are you? What a mess! Shang Minghai stopped Li Siyu.
"Shang Minghai, take her away!"
Hearing Lear call his full name, Shang Minghai knew that something was wrong.
In an instant, the sky was dark, the wind was blowing, the temperature plummeted, and the chill was biting.
The cracks in the trunk that had been calm stirred, and a trace of black gas seeped outward.
The red light in Lear's handprint grew hotter and hotter, and cold sweat ran down his forehead.
"Why is it so big yin!" He Qizhi's umbrella cover was about to be overturned.
Li Siyu was terrified, she didn't know what was wrong with her, as if she was inspired by something, she couldn't help but walk in the direction of the big locust tree.
Shang Minghai tried his best to drag Li Siyu out, but to no avail.
Seeing that Li Siyu's right hand was about to touch the trunk of the tree, Lear ripped off the yang flint on his neck, held it in the palm of his right hand, and pinched out a handprint with his left hand.
He Qizhi shouted in shock and anger, "Lear, are you crazy? ”
The flame of the sunshine ignited from Lear's right hand, and the flame rose more than a meter high, spreading to the trunk of the big locust tree, and the trace of black gas was instantly burned clean.
Li Siyu was no longer restrained, and suddenly lost his strength, and was about to fall to the ground.
Lear hugged her with one hand, but he couldn't bear her weight and fell to the ground together.
"Lear, Lear" He Qizhi and Shang Minghai hurriedly ran over to help them up, "How are you?" You okay? ”
Lear sat up and looked at Li Siyu in his arms, she had passed out.
"She's fine, you look at yourself first." He Qizhi said angrily.
"I, shhhh
"It's a blessing that I didn't burn your whole hand." Shang Minghai teased, "Lear, Lear, I didn't expect you to be a playboy or a lover, and you don't even want your life for the sake of a woman." ”
"you, what nonsense" Lear pushed Shang Minghai, "Dead monk, help me up." ”
"Who is this woman? Why is she so ......?" asked He Qizhi.
"Let's take care of the wound first!" Shang Minghai interrupted He Qizhi's questioning.
When Li Siyu woke up, it was already the next morning, and she only had a vague impression of what happened yesterday afternoon.
Lear told her that she fell and knocked herself unconscious when she ran to the locust tree.
"Nonsense, how can I be so stupid?" Li Siyu didn't believe it.
"Look," Lear said, holding out his right hand, which was wrapped in layers of gauze, "and I fell and injured my hand to catch you." ”
"Is it true?" Li Siyu looked at him suspiciously.
"Sisi, you have to thank Lear," Grandma interjected, "You ran out yesterday afternoon, and it was raining outside, and Grandpa and I were worried about it. Luckily, Lear found you and carried you back. ”
"Uh, he carried me back?" Li Siyu pointed at Lear.
"Hmm," Grandma nodded.
"Okay," Li Siyu raked his hair with his hand, "Anyway, this time, thank you." ”
"Hehe, that's it," Lear laughed, "but can I make a small request?" ”
"What do you ask," Li Siyu asked.
"Can you lose weight, it's really annoying to carry it......"
"Get out!"
After breakfast, Lear and Li Siyu said goodbye to their grandparents and left for City C.
At the entrance of the village, Li Siyu looked at the big locust tree, "Ah, it's burned like this."
The crown of the locust tree was burned bald, the trunk was charred, and there was a black circular scar in the middle.
"Don't worry, it will sprout in the spring." Lear said.
