Chapter 44 The Burning of the County Government
This story is pure fiction
Qiao'er and You Tian came to the city gate early in the morning, and the gate had already been opened, so they could only enter and not go out. When I went in, I went through a strict check. Fortunately, Qiao'er and Youtian had already left their things in the city and didn't bring them out.
After entering the city, they saw the officers and soldiers patrolling the streets, Qiao'er and Youtian wandered around Yongxian County, and at noon, the two of them found a restaurant to eat in it, anyway, just to pass the time.
When I was eating in a restaurant, I saw that the envoy led the officers and soldiers to Yongxian, and it seemed that the envoy was very efficient, and he immediately rushed to Yongxian when he got the news. It seems that there are quite a few soldiers with him this time, at least 500 people. Yutian just thought that the more soldiers he brought with him, the better. In this way, it will be safer for them to go to Chencang.
After lunch, You Tian took Qiao'er to a teahouse, booked a private room by the window on the second floor, ordered tea and snacks, and went out.
Before Qiao'er could speak, Youtian wrote on the table with the tea in the cup, don't speak, for fear that the wall will have ears, so write with tea.
Qiao'er wrote on the table, okay, what do we do next?
You Tian read what Qiao'er wrote, and then wrote on the table, "The more people we bring with us, the safer it will be for us to go to Chencang, so we have to make things bigger, tonight, let's burn the city tower, burn the county government, and when it's done, don't go out." Find a place to hide in the city, burn the city tower tomorrow, and then join up with Jingkong and Brother Xilong. After a while we started chatting as a buyer and seller. ”
"Observe here for an hour or two, and then we'll find a family to live in, so that we can cover up." Yutian then wrote.
"Okay. It's up to you. Qiao'er wrote.
You Tian and Qiao'er were drinking tea in the teahouse, chatting and gossiping, looking at the officers and soldiers patrolling downstairs, and there were also people who went upstairs to investigate, Qiao'er and You Tian coped with it. After sitting for about an hour, seeing that the time was almost up, he wrote on the table, "We can go." ”
Qiao'er followed Youtian out of the teahouse, found a relatively remote small courtyard along the street, and gave a silver ingot to the owner of the yard, and the owner of the yard accepted the silver with joy. A county magistrate's annual salary is only seven taels of silver, and the rent on this day is five taels of silver, can the owner of the yard be unhappy, and he has never seen so much silver. You Tian also explained to the master of the yard that the house and the yard must not be lit at night, and the master of the yard is now what they say, he will do anything, not look at anything else, at least look at the silver.
You Tian and Qiao'er rested in shifts in the house, and rested until the time of the child, You Tian and Qiao'er used light power to fly the eaves to the wall to the place where the oil was stored, and one person twisted two cans of oil and went to the county office.
On the side of Tian and Qiao'er, they found no one outside the wall, lit the oil canister, and threw the lit oil tank into the county government from outside the wall. After throwing away the four cans of fire oil, Youtian and Qiao'er quickly returned to the small courtyard and hid.
Now it's lively outside, the officers and soldiers are patrolling the building in the city, and the city gate tower is also sending additional manpower, but I didn't expect the county government to be burned, and it's usually good to say, today it can be the envoy who still lives in the county office. This is worth it, let's investigate it quickly. And it is a door-to-door investigation, as long as there is a smell of fire oil, it is better to catch a thousand wrongs than let go of one.
You Tian and Qiao'er came to the small courtyard, woke up the owner of the courtyard, and told him, as soon as the officers and soldiers come to investigate, you should treat it as if there are no two of us, what they let you do, you can do it, don't be afraid, it's okay, they can't find out us.
The owner of the courtyard heard Qiao'er and Youtian say this, so he didn't worry about anything, just wait for the officers and soldiers to come and cooperate.
About an hour later, the fire outside, there was a knock on the door, the owner of the yard opened the door, the officers and soldiers really searched this small courtyard, the officers and soldiers entered the courtyard, without saying a word, they began to search the courtyard, the search did not last for half a day, and left, the owner of the yard saw that there was nothing to search, so he was relieved, and then went into the house to sleep.
When Youtian and Qiao'er heard that there was movement outside, they hurriedly climbed onto the roof and climbed on the roof, and when the officers and soldiers left, the two of them immediately came down and took turns resting on the bed, knowing that tonight had passed like this, and the officers and soldiers would not be looking here. Wait until tomorrow when it gets dark, and the two of them can leave with Jingkong and Susilong.
Jingkong and Su Xilong are still waiting outside the city, Jingkong is now stepping up his practice of drifting with the wind, and now after two days of hard work, he can float out seven or eight steps, this is still hard floating, not yet to the realm of soft floating, hard drifting is floating out at the same time, others can see how he floats, that is, the speed is too slow, the body is too hard, and he is not yet proficient, and the clearance is practicing hard with Su Xilong outside the city.
No, not long after the hour, the fire in the city reappeared, but looking at the past, it seemed that it was not the city tower that was on fire, but the city was on fire. In the second half of the night, Su Xilong took shifts, and then woke up the clear space that had just slept for a long time.
"Sunrise, get up and see, the city is on fire again, it must be Qiao'er and Youtian who did it, didn't they say that they would burn the city tower? Why did you burn the city? Su Xilong felt that as long as Qiao'er and Youtian succeeded, it would be fine, but he still had some doubts in his heart, and he was quite worried about the two of them.
"Brother Xilong, don't worry, Qiao'er is here, it's okay, you don't know how powerful Qiao'er is, Qiao'er dared to break alone in the bandit's nest, and rescued me." After a day of light exercises, he was a little tired, and he had just fallen asleep, so he opened his eyes and said to Su Xilong, but he didn't know that there was a powerful Youtian.
"Hey...... It's okay, it's okay! I have learned Qiao'er's martial arts, and I didn't see how I slapped Cheng Daren clearly. Su Xilong said with a smirk, and then said to the clear space: "You sleep, I won't disturb you, and tomorrow Qiao'er and Youtian can join us." ”
"Brother Xilong, if you are sleepy, you can also sleep, it has been two days, Qiao'er and Brother You Tian are making trouble in the city, no one should find here. The officers and soldiers are busy in the city, so how can they have time to take care of the two of us. Jingkong was afraid that Su Xilong would disturb him again, so he said to Su Xilong.
"It's okay, you sleep, I've slept well, I'm watching the excitement in the city, Qiao'er and Youtian's hands are really amazing. Hehe...... "Looking at the fire in the city, Su Xilong was happy in his heart.
"Alright! Then I'll go back to sleep first, and you can watch slowly. "Jingkong is indeed too sleepy, after saying to Su Xilong, he continued to sleep.
