Chapter 440 (Page 1/1)

Over time, Lu knew that he couldn't go toe-to-toe with her. But Gao Zhilan has always been moody, one second she threw herself in Lu's arms and called her mother, and the next second she might punch and kick her.

It's not that she didn't want to tell Murong Qi when she came to see him, but she was afraid that she would find out that she was pretending to be crazy, so she could only try to avoid Gao Zhilan. But the courtyard is so big, where else can I hide?

Just like today, two dishes, one soup, two bowls of rice. If she didn't eat with Gao Zhilan, she would have to eat her leftovers, and no one would reheat her again.

The soup stains on his body had dried up, but Lu's heart was still resentful. Pretending to be crazy before was just trying to avoid the limelight and protect yourself. She knew that Murong Jingzhong would not kill her directly, but Murong Chu was different, he only hated himself, and he would never let her go just because she was a woman.

When Murong Qi said that he wanted to take her away, she thought about it, not to mention that Murong Jingzhong would not let Murong Qi leave, even if she let them go, once Murong Chu came back, it would only be more convenient for her to attack. She didn't want to die, even if she had already been divorced.

The only way is to pretend to be crazy, no matter what, she used to be the princess of Bac Ninh, and she is crazy again, and there is no point in killing her. So she decided to take a gamble, betting that Murong Chu and Murong Jingzhong would throw her in this small courtyard and leave her to fend for herself. After a long time, she will find a way to escape.

Unexpectedly, a Gao Zhilan came halfway through, completely disrupting her plan. Judging from the current situation, even if Murong Chu didn't kill her, he would die in the hands of Gao Zhilan sooner or later.

The night was getting darker, and there was no sound outside except the rustle of leaves in the wind. The only small oil lamp on the table flickered on and off, and Gao Zhilan's face could not be seen clearly from her angle, but she could hear her long breathing, which showed that she was asleep.

Lu recalculated the plan in his heart. Kill Gao Zhilan first, and then use an oil lamp to ignite the quilt, she waited by the door, after the fire burned, it would definitely attract the attention of the guards guarding outside the hospital, and when they came in to save people, when they saw her fainting by the door, they would naturally rescue her first.

The wind is not light tonight, and the fire takes advantage of the wind, and when the guards return, I am afraid that no one will be able to enter the house. When the time came, Gao Zhilan's body was charred, and who could tell that she was dead before the fire.

Thinking of this, Lu quietly approached the couch with the oil lamp, and gently called Gao Zhilan twice, seeing that she did not react, he put the oil lamp on the wooden table next to the couch, and threw it on the quilt as soon as Gao Zhilan died.

Untied the cotton belt around his waist, Lu stretched it with both hands, making sure it was quite strong, and a cold smile appeared on his lips. I thought, Gao Zhilan, don't blame your aunt for being ruthless, it doesn't make sense for you to live now, just stop blocking your aunt's way.

Lu wrapped the two ends of the belt around his hands, threw himself on the couch, quickly wrapped it around Gao Zhilan's neck, and pulled his hands to both sides.

Gao Zhilan, who was sleeping, was suddenly strangled and her breathing was suddenly blocked, she suddenly opened her eyes, and reflexively reached out to grab the belt around her neck.

Where could the Lu family let her succeed, and struggled to tighten the belt. But although she planned carefully, she overestimated her ability, pampered her for many years, and suffered in this small courtyard for more than half a year, how could she have the ability to strangle people to death at this time.

Gao Zhilan's neck was strangled and she couldn't make a sound, so she could only kick and scratch it. Lu Shi made a movement and startled the guards guarding the door outside the hospital, ignoring the scratched face, raised one leg and pressed it on Gao Zhilan's stomach, and continued to pull the belt with both hands.

This posture was already unstable, and the two were writhing again, and Lu's foot that landed on the ground suddenly slipped and kicked down the wooden table next to the couch. The moment the oil lamp slipped off the wooden table, it swept through Lu's skirt, and although the soup that was splashed on the dinner was dry, there were still oil stains, and at the same time, the oil lamp overturned and poured out the oil dripping, which ignited her skirt in an instant.

The burning heat on his legs made Lu have to let go, Gao Zhilan took the opportunity to jump down from the couch, saw the fire under Lu's body, and couldn't help but scream with Lu.

When the two guards outside rushed in when they heard the sound, they only saw Gao Zhilan crawling out of the house with both hands and feet, followed by Lu Shi, who was half buried in the flames.

"Oh no, it's out of the water!" The guard shouted as he dragged Gao Zhilan to the courtyard, scooped water from the water tank and poured it on Lu.

Lu had oil on his body, and when he was splashed with water, the fire not only did not go out, but burned even more vigorously. She was so hurt that she couldn't even scream, and fell to the ground with one foot in the door and the other outside the door.

The place where Lu Shi overturned the oil lamp just now was by the couch, and with her fluttering, the futon was ignited, and the house was full of wooden household goods, and the flames quickly filled the room. This scene is exactly what she envisioned before, the difference is that it was Gao Zhilan who was rescued, and she was burned by the fire.

The guard's voice-changing shouts were particularly clear and piercing in the silence of the night, and soon someone rushed to the scene.

"Don't splash water, there's oil on her!" I don't know who shouted, someone had already rushed up, brooms, dustpans, sacks, and even sand began to greet Lu.

Others poured buckets of water into the house.

When Murong Jingzhong, the king of Beining, and Murong Qi arrived one after another, the flames had already jumped to the beams of the house. The stewards of the house are all experienced, and while organizing people to fight the fire, they let a few strong guys quickly dig a fire ditch around the small courtyard to prevent the fire from spreading outward.

"Quick, save people!"

Murong Qi shouted to rush in, but was tightly held by a few small guys: "Big boy, don't be impulsive!" People will be able to come out soon. ”

"What's the use of you going in? Is it impossible to take another life? Murong Jingzhong's deep voice came, making him quiet down instantly.

Yes, he is just a weak literati, not only does he not know martial arts, but his body is not very strong, and he may cause chaos if he enters.

Murong Qi gritted his teeth and looked at everything in front of him, clenching his hands tightly, his nails digging into his palms and causing a tingling pain. Although the Lu family committed a great crime, but after all, it was his mother, how could he bear to watch her die in the fire?

"Husband." Liu grabbed his arm and called. Murong Qi didn't look back, but put his hand on Liu's hand in the crook of his arm and shook it hard.

After a while, Gao Zhilan and Lu were carried out, both unconscious. The difference is that Gao Zhilan was not burned by the fire except for looking dirty. And Lu's whole person basically can't see the original appearance, and can only be described beyond recognition.

"Quick, go get a doctor!" Without waiting for Murong Qi to speak, Liu Shi instructed the people around him.
