Chapter 43 The Burning of Yongxian County

This story is pure fiction

The four of them hid in the woods, and a team of 100 officers and soldiers chased after them. Because it was dark, the officers and men did not rush into the grove, so they stayed outside the grove, and one of the officers who took the lead sent four or five men back to the city to move the troops.

They walked through the grove to a stream, and Qiao'er took a look at the terrain before leading the three of them upstream. After walking for more than an hour, they saw that the officers and soldiers should not be chasing after them, so they sat down to rest.

"Qiao'er, which direction do you think we should go?" Clearance asked.

"Let's go to the northwest, it should be Yongxian County (now Linyou County, Shanxi), we arrived in Yongxian County to make plans, everyone will rest, and then set off quickly." Qiao'er said to everyone.

After resting for about a quarter of an hour, Qiao'er asked everyone to get up and hurry, and Qiao'er explored the way ahead. After walking along the northwest direction for about a day, Shen Shi arrived outside the city gate of Yongxian in the afternoon.

"Into the city?" Clearance asked.

"You three go outside and wait for me first, I'll go in and explore the way, if it's okay, I'll come out to pick you up." Qiao'er said to the three of them.

"I'll go with you, so that I can take care of it." You Tian said that Yu Tian was still worried that it would not be safe for Qiao'er to go in alone.

"Mmmm, you accompany Qiao'er in the sky, and the sunrise is protected by me outside." Su Xilong spoke.

"Okay, Brother Xilong, you and Sunrise find a place to hide, and Brother You Tian and I will come out after a look." Qiao'er said to Su Xilong.

Su Xilong hid in the weeds next to him with the clear space, and Qiao'er and Youtian went to the city.

"Brother Youtian, did you say that the officers and soldiers would go to Chencang?" Qiao'er said to Youtian as she walked.

"It's not good to say, in fact, we can make a big fuss in Yongxian, and we can go straight to Chencang." You Tian said.

"What's the fuss?"

"We have to let Sunrise and Brother Xilong don't come in, let's buy some dry food and go out, let Sunrise and Xilong be outside for two days, we set fire in Yongxian County for three days in a row, and when it gets dark the day after tomorrow, we will hurry out of the city and Sunrise They will go out of the city and Sunrise they will go out of the city overnight, and rush to Chencang overnight, so that it is safe for us to stay in Chencang for two days." Yutian said.

"This is a good solution, then let's hurry up and buy some dry food from Sunrise and Brother Xilong, and let them wait outside." After Qiao'er finished talking to Youtian, she hurried into the city.

The two of them saw that there were no officers and soldiers patrolling the city for the time being, so they bought some dry food and took it to the clear space and Su Xilong's hiding place, and saw that the clear space was practicing his "Drifting with the Wind" there, and Su Xilong was guiding the clear space beside him.

"Now that I know how to practice, how are you doing?" Qiao'er laughed at the clearance and said.

"I only have time to spare, I can take my time, but I can only float four or five steps, not far yet, and I'm still stepping up my practice." Clearance returns.

"Drifting with the Wind" is mainly to relax your body and perceive the speed of the wind, just like a leaf drifting with the wind. Usually, when I was empty to read a book, Qiao'er was on the side to point out, and slowly I also appreciated the mystery of light work in the book. With time, the clearance will definitely be cultivated.

Qiao'er explained to Su Xilong about the big things they and Youtian were going to do in the city, Su Xilong heard about such a fun thing, and wanted to follow, but there was no one to protect the clear space, so he could only stay in place and practice light exercises with the clear space.

"You two can walk around, but you must meet us here before dark, and you must rest well, when we arrive, we will rush to Chencang overnight." Qiao'er confessed to the clear space and Su Xilong.

"Okay, you can go with confidence, Brother Xilong and I must be here before it gets dark." Qingkong said to Qiao'er.

Qiao'er and Youtian rushed to the city.

"Shall we go in and set fire to it today? Or will it start setting fire tomorrow? Where to set fire? Qiao'er asked a series of questions.

"The fire must be set up today, but when the city gates are closed, we will go out of the city. Find a remote place, tomorrow they will search the city for a day, and then we will set a fire tomorrow after dark, and we will not go out, find a place to hide in the city, and when it is almost dark the day after tomorrow, go to the county yamen and set a fire, after dark, we will find a way to go out of the city and meet them at sunrise. You Tian said to Qiao'er.

"Okay, Brother Youtian, everything is up to your arrangement." Qiao'er said to Youtian, her heart is beautiful, what a fun thing it is to set fire, Qiao'er is using arson to vent the embarrassment of almost being caught.

You Tian took Qiao'er into Yongxian County, found a corner and hid, and the sky began to slowly darken. They found a place to eat something. I'm ready to start doing their big thing.

"Brother Youtian, where are we going to set the fire tonight?" Qiao'er asked excitedly.

"Burn the tower, so that the whole city can see it. Today burn the South City Gate Tower and the East City Gate Tower, and tomorrow burn the North City Gate Tower and the West City Gate Tower. What will be burned in the end the day after tomorrow, we will decide. You Tian said to Qiao'er, then thought for a while, and then said to Qiao'er: "After burning the South City Gate Tower and the East City Gate Tower today, we will go out from the north city gate wall, deal with it outside for a night, and enter the city tomorrow when it gets dark." You Tian said to Qiao'er.

"Okay!" Qiao'er twisted two cans of fire oil that she had bought in the afternoon, and set off from the sky.

The two of them came to the vicinity of the south city gate, and when they saw that there were few people, they flew up to the city tower with light skills, knocked out the two officers and soldiers, changed their clothes, and threw the two of them aside. Then poured a can of fire oil on the city tower, lit the fire and threw it up, and in an instant the words of the south city gate tower were on fire, and the officers and soldiers under the city tower saw it and hurriedly knocked the gong to put out the fire. This fire was seen by both the clear sky and Su Xilong outside the city, and they knew that Qiao'er had succeeded.

Qiao'er and Youtian ran from the city wall to the East City Gate Tower in the clothes of officers and soldiers, shouting for fire as they ran. When they came to the east tower, they saw that there were only two officers and soldiers guarding the city, and then they went over to get close to them, and then knocked them unconscious, poured the remaining can of fire oil on the city gate tower, and set the city tower on fire in the same way, and then the two jumped off the city wall and ran out of the city. No one saw them running out of the city.

The city is lively, the gongs and drums are noisy, it is more lively than the New Year, the firefighting, the arrest of arsonists, the city is lively, Qiao'er and Youtian have already hid in a hidden place to rest, thinking about how to set the fire tomorrow.

Jingkong and Su Xilong are also very happy to see outside the southern city, but they are still a little worried about Qiao'er and Youtian, it's useless to worry, the day after tomorrow, Qiao'er and Youtian can come to meet them, the two of them have divided labor, one sleeps half a night, I'm afraid that something unexpected will happen.
