"It's on fire, it's on fire!"

Late at night, Wu Ming, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly heard the shouts of countless people. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Awakened, he put on a suit and went to the balcony, and looked up to the outside world, only to see a raging fire in the Black Forest in the distance, and the light of the fire faintly illuminated the southern sky.

No one can say for sure how big the Black Forest is, but it is conservatively estimated to be the size of a province on Earth.

This is only the outermost part of the Black Forest, even if Wu Ming hunts in the forest for a month, the area he explores is only one ten-thousandth, and no one can say what is deeper than that.

"Aang!"

A strange roar came slowly from afar, the sound was a bit like a horse, but if you listened closely, it was not at all.

At this time, old John had already arrived with the yellow dog, and shouted loudly in the barking of the yellow dog: "Young master, Miss Anne, come out quickly." The Black Forest is on fire, and the town borders the forest, so I'm afraid it will be affected! ”

"Brother, it's on fire, you hurry up and open the door."

When Wu Ming opened the door, Anne was already waiting outside with the bear in her arms, and Aunt Angelina was packing her things.

Seeing Wu Ming come out, the two hurriedly pulled him out and ran out, and they seemed to be frightened by Old John's words.

It's no wonder that the town borders the Black Forest, and tonight the northeasterly wind blows.

Don't look at the fire in the distance is far away, who can tell when it will burn over, running early is not the same thing as playing.

"Young master, the fire is too big to be saved. I'm going to prepare the car, let's leave first, and we'll see the situation tomorrow morning. ”

Old John handed the yellow dog to Angelina, and he looked panicked and went straight to the stables of the orchard.

Wu Ming took Anne's little hand, with seriousness in his eyes, looking at the firelight in the distance.

Forest fires are not uncommon, but as far back as Ghat can remember, there has never been a fire in the Black Forest, let alone a fire like today.

Combined with the strange roar he had heard before, Wu Ming had an urge to enter the forest and see what was going on.

The impulse came and went quickly, and soon Wu Ming settled down.

His current strength is still very low, and this kind of natural disaster is definitely not something he can touch at the moment.

If you really want to rush in recklessly, let alone find the truth of the problem, God forbids if you don't die inside.

"Young master, the car is here, everyone hurry up and get in the car." Old John came in a carriage and put everyone's luggage on board.

Because I just moved in, I had very few things to pack apart from a few clothes.

Aunt Angelina held Anne in one hand and clutched her money bag tightly in the other, her eyes full of panic.

Anne herself was not afraid, and Tibbs the bear was hidden in the collar of her chest, and both the bear looked curious.

"Aang!"

As soon as the front foot boarded the carriage, the strange roar was heard for the second time, much clearer than the first.

Wu Ming instantly raised his head and looked south, unlike the vagueness of the last time, this time he seemed to hear the meaning of pleading and sorrow from the strange roar.

"Go, you stupid horse, hurry up!" Old John was wielding his whip and whipping the old horse pulling the cart.

The old horse stood motionless, flicking his hooves restlessly, but had no intention of leaving.

It wasn't until more than ten seconds had passed, and he had been whipped several times, that the old horse seemed to get the signal and spread his legs and galloped out.

The one-meter-high wheels spun vigorously, and the carriage left the estate and went out into the street.

The street was already crowded with people at the moment, many people were in groups of threes and twos, and many people ran out with their wives and children without even wearing two clothes.

The child cried, the wife screamed, and the sound of angry scolding and sobbing was endless.

Wu Ming sat in the car and looked at the outside world, but what he thought about was not the fleeing crowd, but the strange cries coming from the forest.

"The strange forest fire, the strange scream, what happened to Lin Shen. And Anne saw the old lady in the red dress yesterday afternoon, all of this is so closely connected, what is the relationship in it? The more Wu Ming thought about it, the more irritable he became, he didn't like changes, especially those that were difficult to control.

The rampaging carriage broke up the crowd and gradually left the town behind under the sheriff's curses.

Without stopping, he ran wildly for more than ten miles before Old John stopped the carriage.

At this time, the frightened crowd had the opportunity to get out of the carriage and see what was happening behind them.

"Our home!" At first glance, Old John was shocked and angry, and the others were also teary-eyed.

In just half an hour or so, the fire and wind spread from the Black Forest and enveloped the town.

The originally quiet and peaceful town has been covered in a sea of fire.

Countless people fled with their families and mouths, and the destruction of their homes and the aftermath of the catastrophe reflected the two different moods, and many people looked confused.

"Young master, our home is gone, the manor is gone, there is nothing, woo woo woo..."

There's no way not to be sad, everyone has been kicked out of the Percival family, and the only foundation for survival is this apple orchard.

Now that the fire has passed, all the hard work has been burned, and even Wu Ming is gloomy when he thinks of the fate of being homeless.

"Let's get in the car, go to the city and find a house to live in first, we can still starve to death."

Wu Ming sighed and turned to board the carriage.

The moment he entered the carriage, he suddenly saw a strange bird with wings flying in the sky.

When I looked at it, it was a strange bird, it was obviously a green poisonous dragon, and there seemed to be a person sitting on it.

"Poison Dragon, challenge level 15, has the strength to destroy a city, which is comparable to low-level heroes." Just by taking a look, Wu Ming got the detailed information of the opponent from the golden finger.

The poisonous dragon belongs to a type of colored dragon, and the adult poisonous dragon is extremely lethal and extremely poisonous.

According to the level division of the class template mountain, the ordinary template can only be upgraded to level 6, the advanced template can be upgraded to level 9, and only the hero template has no level limit.

This poisonous dragon that challenges level 15 is equivalent to an ordinary template being upgraded to a full level, and an advanced template is also promoted to a top professional.

Moreover, dragons are naturally stronger than humans, and challenging level 15 is not as simple as 6+9.

According to the combat effectiveness of human beings themselves, a seven-person team that is all level 15 can have the strength to fight against it, otherwise they can only change to hero-level characters.

"Is this the poisonous dragon I heard? However, the poisonous dragon does not have the ability to cast dragon breath, and the fire in the forest should be left by the person who subdued it! Because of the distance, Wu Ming couldn't see who the person sitting on the dragon's back was.

But he had a hunch that the person who had subdued the poisonous dragon was the old lady in the red dress.

If this is the case, this old woman who has taken a fancy to Anne is probably at least a low-level hero, a strong person with a professional level of 16 or above.

"Brother, what are you looking at?" Wu Ming stood at the door of the carriage and looked at the sky, attracting Anne's attention.

Anne also followed his example and looked up at the starry sky, but at this time, the poisonous dragon had already flown away, and she didn't find anything for a long time.

"It's nothing, Anne come on, it's time for us to leave." Wu Ming carried Anne into the car, believing that no matter what the old woman had planned, there would be a chance to meet in the future.

In this case, what else is he worried about, the longer the time drags on, the stronger his strength will be.

As the former Da Luo Jin Immortal, that is, the main god-level powerhouse in today's world, no one can keep up with his ascension speed, and it is only a matter of time before he reaches the hero level.

When the sky was bright, Wu Ming and his entourage returned to the city of Tiprague after a long absence.

It's not appropriate to say that it's been a long time since we were gone, but compared to the forest town, Tiprague is where everyone's memory lies, and there are too many love-hates here.

A month ago, everyone was expelled from the family, and John Sr. and Angelina cried heartbreakingly.

This time, seeing that he could still return here, Old John wanted to try to convince Wu Ming to seek help from the Percival family.

"Young master, we have nothing left now, and survival in the future is a problem. Otherwise, you go back and beg the master, or let the master arrange something to do. Old John said expectantly, and even Angelina looked at Wu Ming expectantly when she heard this.

Wu Ming shook his head slightly, not thinking that this was a good idea.

The man Viscount Charlotte, whom he had already seen, was, in the words of the superior, a kinder of unkindness.

If it is the real Garth, in desperation, he may use the family as a lifesaver.

But Wu Ming is different, he is not really Gate after all, and he doesn't think that he will get help by asking for help, and he doesn't want to see people's faces.

"Young master, you and the master are close relatives, although the master doesn't like you, but he can't let you live on the streets. This time the fire is not at all controllable by manpower, I believe that for the sake of your mother's face, the lord will not let it go. Seeing Wu Ming shaking his head, Old John was still unwilling.

Wu Ming waved his hand, no longer giving Old John a chance to speak, and said bluntly: "Old John, you don't need to persuade me, I won't go back." Now, we don't have a manor, and I can't hire you anymore. Wait a while, let Aunt Angelina give you the pay, and you can leave by yourself. ”

"Young master—" Old John wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

He also knew the situation at home, and understood that he no longer needed his services after losing the apple orchard.

Thinking that he had served the Percival family for most of his life, and that he would have to go his own way when he was old, Old John was a little depressed, and sighed: "Young master, there is no need for wages, and you won't need the carriage in the future, so let me take the carriage away, and I will make up for you how much money is missing." Later, I had my own carriage and could pull people on the streets and get a job to support my family. ”

When the catastrophe comes, they fly separately, and there is no way to do it.

Wu Ming asked Angelina to calculate Old John's salary and the price of the carriage, and lowered it and transferred it to Old John.

Unexpectedly, old John still had a small savings, and in addition to his own salary, he could also post eighteen gold coins, and drove the carriage home that day.

"Brother, we have nothing, how do you feel?"

Standing on the crowded street, Wu Ming hugged Anne in his arms and said, "It's never been as good as today..."
