Chapter 10: Escape
Erya hid in the corner of the window on the second floor, watching the "cat and mouse" of the two, worried that this old man would not lead people to her, such a thing happened, it was impossible to go through the door, if she was found again, I am afraid that she would have to shed her skin if she did not die.
The two chased up and down between several floors, and the ghost city's own people also chased after the old man's ass, no matter how much they chased him, they couldn't catch the old man, and Erya found that the old man was good.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and the huge bronze candlestick hanging in the middle of the building smashed to the ground, and the red candles on it were scattered everywhere, and the tongue of fire licked the soft clothes of these rich people, and the "snort" burned, and the fire suddenly became larger among the crowd for a while, contaminating the things that could be burned around, and it was out of control for a while.
The old man's laughter came from the top of his head, and when he saw the scene on the ground, the man in red did not chase anymore, and led people to start extinguishing the fire. Unfortunately, the fire was so big that it was almost burned to the second floor.
The scorching heat swept through the second floor with choking smoke, and there was a wail downstairs, Er Ya cursed fiercely in her heart, "dead old man", stretched out her hand and pushed open the window, there was a river below, Er Ya's heart was horizontal, she would rather drown than be burned alive, and jumped down with a "poof".
No one noticed that a girl had snuck away in the midst of the chaos.
The air was humid and hot at night in August, but Erya, who was planted in the river, still felt a chill all over her body, and accidentally choked a few mouthfuls of water.
After giving up the struggle, Er Ya was surprised to find that he had floated to the surface, but it was the flood season, the river was turbulent, just floated up and was swept down, and the ups and downs had been carried away by the water, at this time Er Ya suddenly heard a slight dog barking, Er Ya thought of what the old man said, and struggled to stick his head up and struggled to scream: "Black Tiger!"
didn't wait for Erya to see if it was the black tiger coming, the current swept her underwater again, just when she felt that she was about to finish, she felt something arch under her, lifting her up, "Huhuhu" just poked out of the water, Erya hurriedly opened her mouth to inhale.
But in the next second, I felt a force dragging me into the water, Er Ya shot around in a panic, and touched the head of the black tiger in a trance, and the head arched her hard, but it was not as strong as the other force that pulled down, and Er Ya felt as if she was sinking in a whirlwind.
Not good! It's a whirlpool! Erya's heart sank, and she secretly screamed that it was not good.
"Poof" There was a loud noise, Erya felt that something was quickly approaching her, but at this moment she couldn't keep her senses, she just wanted to take a breath, her lungs were about to explode, as if hallucinations, she found that she really took a breath, she couldn't care about anything else, she just wanted to take advantage of the illusion to take two more breaths, but what was the soft touch between her lips and teeth, she didn't have time to think about it, Erya lost consciousness.
"Why did Childe save her, it was a whirlpool, and Childe actually put himself in danger for her." Next to the man in red, a man in an ink-colored robe said with an indignant expression.
The man in red bypassed the screen and took off his wet clothes, took a red middle coat and put it on, and said coldly: "It makes sense for me to save her, and I won't be stupid enough to lose my life for her, don't let my eldest brother know about this." The tone was cold and unsentimental.
"Then she ......" The man in ink glanced at the woman lying on the bed, the woman was soaked, and there was a slightly painful expression between her charming eyebrows, even if she looked so embarrassed, she could see what a pretty girl she was.
"Don't worry about her, you can't die if the water spits out, you won't wake up for a while, we'll leave tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, the man in ink did not speak again. Whisper to the dark. The man in red rested on the couch. Tonight, he didn't complete the task assigned by his eldest brother, and saved a woman in one fell swoop, I was afraid that he would be too careful, so he fell asleep thinking about it.
In the middle of the night, a faint voice came from the bed: "Help, help......"
The man's eyes opened on the couch, and after waiting for a few seconds, he walked to the bed, and the girl in front of him was still wet, and the man thought to himself that he should not have a fever.
Reaching out to probe, it was really hot, and a sickly flush on his face, but it made a beautiful face more and more attractive.
"Thunder, come here!" The man in red said softly.
The man in ink walked out in the dark, "What's the matter with Childe?" ”
"Is there any medicine for typhoid fever?" The man in red still had no emotion in his tone, and he smiled bitterly, "Childe, we usually only bring trauma medicine when we go out, and I don't bring anything you don't need." ”
The man in red was silent for two seconds and suddenly said, "Get out!"
Seeing that his son-in-law was inexplicably angry, he had to go outside the door quickly.
The man in red glanced at Erya, closed his eyes, and began to take off the wet clothes on her body.
I heard Erya shouting again: "Cold, so cold......"
Glancing at the wet quilt, the man took off his dry coat, carefully held the girl in his arms, and covered his coat.
The man in red, who reacted to what he was doing, was stunned for a moment, when did he become so tender to a girl? Do you care about her life or death?
I wanted to push her away, but I touched her hot forehead, no, he didn't care about her, this girl would definitely burn out.
So the man in red, who has always been indifferent and ruthless, just hugged Erya in his arms. He had never been so close to anyone else, and he had insomnia all night.
Erya only felt hot and cold in a drowsy mood, but then it was like falling into a fire pit, and the slightest temperature from behind her made her sweat profusely, and then she fell asleep.
The sky was faint, and Erya's forehead was no longer burning, and the man in red pushed Erya away and prepared to get dressed and leave.
Thunder walked in and saw his son's disheveled appearance, glanced at the girl who was stripped off on the bed and had only a shirt left, suddenly jumped, and hurriedly stepped back, "Childe, excuse me, my subordinates will be punished when they go back, Childe, you continue, and your subordinates are guarding at the door." ”
The boy in red blushed, and he was even shy, but the pinched knuckles told others that being shy and angry are two different things, except for being embarrassed and angry, of course.
He glanced back, it seemed that he would wake up in a while, and when he got dressed and pushed the door, Erya opened his eyes, only to see a red figure flashing, and the door closed before he could see it clearly.
Man in red......
The first thing Erya remembered was the man in the ghost market last night.
Looking down again, she was almost stripped naked and lying on the bed, remembering what happened last night, she only vaguely remembered some fragments after falling into the water, but she was sure that she was rescued, and she couldn't remember anything else.
The person who went out just now should be the one who saved her, looking at the obvious figure of ten tall men, and the figure of the man in the ghost market matches, Er Ya guessed that under the circumstances, it was the man who saved her nine times out of ten.
Erya has lived alone since she was a child, and she doesn't pay as much attention to women and men as she does to women, but she can't help but worry about what happened to her own appearance.
Headache, Er Ya didn't want to think about it anymore, anyway, picking up a life was not a bad thing, he didn't return overnight, I don't know what happened to the two girls.
Walking out of the room in wet clothes, Erya was surprised to find that this was actually the Baoyue Inn. Erya walked quickly through the corridor, and sure enough, around the corner was the room where she lived, "Qinghe opened the door." ”
Er Ya softly shouted the name of the third girl, the door opened, the third girl stood at the door with red eyes, saw that it was her sister, threw herself into the arms of the second girl, and cried "wow".
The third girl, who is the most boring on weekdays, is holding Er Ya like this, and Er Ya pats the third girl's head and closes the door.
I saw the fourth girl sitting on the bed dangling two little short legs, obviously didn't think too much about the sister didn't come back one night, the third girl stopped crying, and the second girl stepped forward to pinch Ling'er's face, "You heartless little guy!" ”
Looking around, Erya found that the black tiger was not there, could it be that the black tiger was trying to save her last night...... Impossible, Erya shook her head, the black tiger is a smart dog, and nothing will happen.
After changing her clothes, she didn't mention what happened last night to the two girls. I thought I would set off for Lin'an today, but today will definitely not happen, the whereabouts of the black tiger are unknown, and she doesn't know anything about last night, so it is estimated that she will have to postpone it for a few days.
After taking the two girls to breakfast, Er Ya sent the two back to the inn, and pulled a guy downstairs and asked who lived in the Tianzi No. 1 room last night, and the guy shook his head and said he didn't know.
Er Ya took out a piece of broken silver and stuffed it into his hand, and then he said: "Miss, you ask the guests of the Son of Heaven No. 1, I really don't know who his surname is, everyone else has to register his name, but he doesn't need to register, and the shopkeeper has not told him a lot about this, so don't bother with that."
I couldn't ask for any news here, and Er Ya suddenly remembered that he had seen the owner of Fuxing Building in the ghost market last night, but was he still alive with such a big fire last night. With the mentality of trying, Erya went to Fuxing Building. The door of Fuxing Building is abnormal, Erya remembers that business here was booming when she left, but now it has become like this, what happened?
