644 - Fire

In the early hours of the morning, four or five black-clothed men quietly came to the surroundings of the General's Mansion, and they gathered in the shadows to discuss: "Isn't it a bit too bold for us to burn the General's Mansion?" He's a big general. โ€

"Hmph, what's wrong with the general, dare to look down on our royalists, that's the end, okay, don't talk nonsense, besides, this is also what Lord Feng meant, what, you want to disobey Lord Feng's orders?"

Wu Xian glared at those people.

Several people hurriedly shook their heads: "Don't dare, don't dare." โ€

Wu Xian nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and pointed to a person: "You are good, go and see if there is anything abnormal, if not, come back and say goodbye." โ€

The man who was pointed at said yes, and took advantage of the darkness to touch forward, and in about a quarter of an hour, the man ran back, his chest covered with mud, apparently tumbling off the wall.

"Brother Wu, don't worry, I just looked, the people inside are all drunk, and the guards are almost drunk, and few of them can stand up."

Wu Xian was overjoyed when he heard this: "God wants to make me successful." โ€

As he spoke, he waved to the dark place behind him, and with the sound of footsteps, hundreds of people came out, one by one, holding flammable things such as sulfur, hay, pine resin, edible oil, etc.

Wu Xian raised his hand and said, "Look at my gestures, burn the fire one by one, this time, even if you can't burn him Wang Xiaolai, let him know that our royalists are not easy to mess with." โ€

Everyone nodded and scattered, surrounding the General's Mansion.

At the sound of the order, the flames burst out, and then the men threw the burning hay and torches towards the general's palace.

The General's Mansion was originally newly built, and the building was mostly wood, and it was newly painted with red paint, which was on fire, but it was more than ten minutes of time, and the General's Mansion was on fire.

Listening to the hurried shouts coming from the general's mansion, Wu Xian smiled, and in the wailing shouts of walking water, he opened his mouth and whispered: "Withdraw." โ€

With that, he took the lead and ran.

The hundred and ten royalists who came with them also retreated one by one.

It's just that as soon as they left the two streets of the General's Mansion, they ran into a hanging knife and came out, beating the two stunned people who came back from the restaurant before, and when they saw these people, they were stunned: "What are you doing?" โ€

Seeing the two stunned, Wu Xian was also stunned.

Before he could speak, the second stunned man saw the general's mansion with a bright fire in the distance, and at that time he stomped his feet and shouted the shopkeeper, without looking at Wu Xian and them, and ran directly towards the general's mansion.

Seeing this, Wu Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and just wanted to say withdraw, but his eyes rolled slightly, and he smiled hesitantly: "You guys, go back with me." โ€

The more than ten people named by him looked puzzled, and Wu Xian smiled and said: "Lao Tzu wants to see how Wang Xiaolai was burned alive." โ€

When the words fell, the more than a dozen royalists also laughed, followed Wu Xian, and a few people looked back again.

Wang Xiaolai was asleep, Leng Buding was woken up by the fireworks, when the coughing continued, he sat up suddenly, his ears were full of the sound of water and firefighting, he got out of bed and pushed the door open, and saw that his general's mansion was engulfed and surrounded by fire, in the firelight, the swaying guards who drank were fighting the fire everywhere, and the maids were also running around.

Wang Xiaolai was stunned and muttered, "How can this be..."

At this moment, several figures suddenly flashed in front of him, and Wang Xiaolai was startled, it was the four people who were singing birds and flowers.

Liao Yong stepped forward and said, "General, the house has run out of water, you should withdraw quickly, otherwise, you won't be able to get out." โ€

Wang Xiaolai didn't seem to hear it, Liao Yong shouted again, Wang Xiaolai came back to his senses and gritted his teeth: "Then what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you go and rescue Hongxiang and them." โ€

Liao Yong was stunned: "But general, what should you do?" โ€

"What should I do, Hongxiang is the daughter of the old sword fairy, if something happens to her, how can you let me explain to the old sword fairy!"

When the four of them heard this, they were all frightened, and needless to say, Huating went directly to Lang and the others.

Seeing that Liao Yong and Yu Shien did not move, Wang Xiaolai glared at them: "You didn't hear me speak, did you?" โ€

The two of them couldn't help but come up and grabbed Wang Xiaolai's arm: "The old sword fairy said, you must also protect your safety, the general." โ€

At this time, even if Wang Xiaolai wanted to struggle, he couldn't break free from the clamps of the two masters.

After all, he now doesn't have the strength of a first-grade grandmaster, and he is not much different from ordinary people.

Blazing forward, there are burned and collapsed houses everywhere.

The entire General's Mansion was in a mess, no one commanded, it should be said that even if someone commanded, no one listened, after all, the scene was too chaotic.

"Jiuchai and Jingyu are them!" Wang Xiaolai was carried forward, choked and couldn't stand up straight, coughing.

Liao Yong and Yu Shien both shook their heads: "I don't know, but your safety, General, is the most important." โ€

When Wang Xiaolai heard this, he wanted to push the two away and go back to find them.

But the way they came had been sealed by the fire, and before they could get closer, they felt a wave of heat that could almost melt everyone in their faces, forcing them not to come forward.

Seeing this, Liao Yong and Yu Shien didn't need to say anything, and forcibly pulled Wang Xiaolai out.

All the way out of the general's mansion to a safe place, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

But when I went to see Wang Xiaolai again, he was already petrified and stupid in place.

A huge general's mansion, at this time, has changed into a sea of fire.

Constantly people rushed out of the fire with wet quilts.

The fire alarmed the patrol army in Daxingcheng, and after learning about the fire in the general's palace, they organized to extinguish the fire.

But once a fire spreads, how can it be so easily extinguished.

It burned until dawn, and the General's Mansion was already in ruins.

Wang Xiaolai sat on the ground in a daze, and the whole person was stupid.

He opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't know what he was going to say.

There was a whooshing sound in the air, Wang Xiaolai raised his head to look, and saw that more than a dozen people fell from the air and fell to the ground.

Wang Xiaolai hurriedly opened his eyes to take a look, but found that it was Shu Jiuchai Xian Jingyu and them.

At that time, Wang Xiaolai stared at the round eyes, and after being stunned for a moment, he jumped up and moved forward: "Jiuchai, Jingyu, are you all right?" โ€

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Hou Seret Li Shuangyu.

Even if the former was choked unconscious by the fire, he was still holding a stack of ledgers in his arms.

"General, don't worry, they're fine, they're just choked by the smoke." At this time, someone in the air spoke.

As soon as Wang Xiaolai looked up, he saw that Li Baiyi was stepping on a sword, and on his back, he was also carrying the red incense that had fainted, and on the left and right sides of Li Baiyi, Hua Ting and Xiang Lang were also stepping on a flying sword, but the two of them looked much more funny at this time.

Seeing that it was Li Baiyi, Wang Xiaolai breathed a sigh of relief.

Falling to the ground, Li Baiyi gently put down the red incense on his back, turned around and asked Wang Xiaolai: "General, are you okay?" โ€

Wang Xiaolai just nodded, and then counted among the piles of people on the ground.

Everyone is here, but they are missing.

He was a little anxious: "I'm stunned." Old Sword Immortal, have you seen the second stunned? โ€

"Dumbfounded? You mean the kid who always likes to hang knives? Li Baiyi asked.

Wang Xiaolai was anxious and nodded hurriedly.

"The old man didn't see his shadow, and there was no trace of him in the house at all."

When Li Baiyi said this, Wang Xiaolai was even more anxious, and said in his heart that it should be that the second stunned man was burned to death by the fire.

At this moment, a person turned out of the corner of the street, carrying a man in his hand, and walked over with an expression of wanting to eat people.

If you take a closer look, it is the second stunned.

Wang Xiaolai breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly went over to him and said: "What are you doing, do you know, the general's mansion caught fire, and I thought you were burned to death inside." โ€

The second stunned man glanced up at Wang Xiaolai, and it was this glance that surprised Wang Xiaolai.

What are you doing? It turned out that the second stunned man was stained red with blood all over his body, and at this time, his face was bruised a lot, and there were also many short dagger cuts on his body.

On the knife in the hand of the second stunned man, all the mutilations were gaps.

The second stunned man silently threw the man who was seriously injured by him forward, sat down, and said weakly: "The one who burned the General's Mansion last night is this guy, surnamed Wang, let me ask you, is my shopkeeper okay?" โ€
