Chapter 138: A Great Fire, Burning the Prosperous World
"It's out of the water!"
"Come on, come and put out the fire!"
Chaotic beast whispers and unfamiliar human whispers erupted in the courtyard, and countless orc guards were surrounded by flames in their sleep, writhing on the ground with a wail of pain.
More orcs are panicking and running into the chamber, and His Highness is still inside!
The flames came from the side room, and even the orcs in the courtyard were seriously injured, so Your Highness must not have anything to do!
"Crackling!"
Flames burned the house, unleashing a terrifying sound of small explosions.
A thin woman in a tiger's skin staggered out of the room, her shadow enchanting, and there was a unique beauty in the night.
As she ran, she cried and shouted, "Your Highness..... Your Highness is dead!"
On her beautiful face, tears and tears were constantly shed, and she was heartbroken.
"It's Lihime!"
"Oh no, go and save Your Highness!"
The orc guards were anxious, but the flames were too fierce to stop them.
"Whoa!"
The Great Xia Iron Army rushed into the courtyard quickly, and the captains shouted to maintain order: "Everyone, squat! ”
"Your Highness is inside, save Your Highness!"
The orc guards seemed to see a savior, and there were orc guards with a cry in their voices.
It can be seen that this orc prince is very popular on weekdays and is deeply loved by the guards.
"Hurry up and put out the fire!"
Bai Qi gave a decisive order, while ordering the others to control the situation in the courtyard and arrange for the orc guards to leave here.
Now that the situation is chaotic, he needs to consider whether this is a deliberate fire set by the orc peace envoy to disrupt the situation and take advantage of the situation.
"General, no, there is no way to extinguish this fire!"
The anxious voice of the lieutenant sounded, and each Great Xia Iron Army wore a certain amount of dry food and a small water bottle, which was the standard equipment of the army ordered by the emperor.
It is convenient for the Great Xia army to react quickly and fight at any time, and there is no need to delay the first fighter plane because of the mobilization of grain and grass.
When Bai Qi heard this, he hurriedly strode forward, staring at the firelight, and his face couldn't help but be even more embarrassed: "This is not an ordinary flame. ”
Ordinary flames would never spread to the entire courtyard in such a short period of time, and it would take a while for the flames to burn and spread, but this fire was too sudden.
In a very short period of time, it spread throughout the courtyard, and it was extremely turbulent.
Moreover, there was a wisp of dark blue in the red of this flame, and the water in the soldier's kettle was of no use at all, as if it was pouring oil on the fire, making the fire more ferocious.
"Huh!"
Bai Qi took a deep breath, pulled out his saber, and condensed a spiritual energy to split out.
"Crackling!"
The flames twisted, and the momentum weakened slightly, but it didn't get any better.
"Bang!"
The chamber in the flames could not be burned, and it collapsed with a loud noise.
"Your Highness!"
Li Ji's voice sounded, tears stained her beauty, she couldn't withstand such a cruel blow, and her soft shadow swayed, as if she was going to pass out to the ground in the next second.
"Put everyone on the streets, and send someone to inform the Emperor and Commander Lei. ”
Bai frowned and gave a decisive order.
"Wow. ”
The lieutenant left in a hurry.
This flame is no longer something that the Great Xia Iron Army can put down, Bai Qi is the strength of the Nirvana Realm, and he is helpless in the face of this strange fire.
Now the flames are constantly spreading, and there is a tendency to spread to the surrounding houses, which can only disperse the population and control the casualties.
"Huh!"
In the sky, a thunderbolt flickered, and Lei Zhenzi had already noticed the abnormality and rushed from the palace to the courtyard.
"Boom!"
The sky thundered, dark clouds were everywhere, and a thunderbolt slashed down, reflecting the black shadow in the sky, which was Lei Zhenzi.
"Hmph. ”
Lei Zhenzi snorted coldly, and the battle knife full of thunder in his hand slashed down, and a thunderbolt of light quickly slashed through the fire waves, splitting into a scurrying arc to defeat all the aura contained in the flames.
"Quick, put out the fire with water!"
Bai Qi noticed the abnormality of the weakening of the flames, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to continue to put out the fire.
Some soldiers had already brought buckets of water from nearby, and the fire was brought under control under the heavy water.
......
A sudden and strange fire caused the entire imperial capital to fall into a panic.
Countless people woke up from their sleep, civil and military officials, and family lords sent people overnight to inquire about information, and the people took to the street and looked in the direction of the courtyard where the orc peace team was located.
"This is retribution, isn't it?"
"Why did the house of the Great Prince of Orcs suddenly burn up. ”
"I heard that the orc prince died inside. ”
The news spread quickly, some people gloated, and some frowned and pondered.
The chaos that lasted for half an hour gradually dissipated, and with the help of Lei Zhenzi, the tenacious and strange flames were extinguished, and the entire courtyard was in shambles, and the charred corpses were visible everywhere, and the facial features of the corpses were burned beyond recognition.
An hour later.
The Imperial Palace, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.
Li's hurried voice sounded outside: "Emperor, Emperor, the city is flooded, and the courtyard of the orc peace team has been burned down. ”
"Squeak. ”
The door of the Heart Cultivation Hall was opened, and Su Chen walked out wearing a big coat, his face was expressionless, and his voice was cold: "It is rumored that everyone from the Tiantai and the Military Aircraft Pavilion have come to the imperial study to discuss matters. ”
"Wow. ”
Leaving the twist left in a hurry.
The fragrant breeze came, and Daji's shadow stood beside Su Chen, she was wearing a small dress, her snow-white arms were stretched out, and she gently sorted out Su Chen's clothes.
"Emperor, the concubine is waiting for you in the palace. ”
"Hmm. ”
Su Chen nodded, hurriedly set up, and went to the imperial study.
......
Inside the Imperial Study.
The people on the Tiantai and the Military Aircraft Pavilion stood side by side, and everyone frowned.
It was late at night, but everyone didn't feel the slightest bit sleepy.
"Emperor, the casualties have been counted. ”
Sima Yi hurriedly walked from outside the imperial study, and said with a heavy face: "Only the orc peace team was seriously injured, and there were no casualties among other civilians in the city. Twenty-seven orcs died in the fire, and the rest were burned to varying degrees, but only the orc prince's beloved concubine Li Ji was unharmed. ”
Su Chen closed his eyes, was silent for a while, and said softly: "What about others?"
Everyone knew that the emperor was asking the orc prince.
"Back to the emperor's words, the orc prince ......."
Sima Yi hesitated slightly, and then sighed: "He is already dead, and when the fire broke out, the orc prince ate in the wing. ”
Bai Qi found two corpses in the chamber, and the platform preliminarily judged that these two corpses were the orc prince and his guards, but further investigation was still needed. ”
Sima Yi's voice was low.
As everyone knows, there is no need for further investigation, and the truth of this matter is already very obvious.
This strange fire was caused by the orc prince himself!
He had already prepared that if the emperor didn't kill him, he would set himself on fire in the imperial capital, forcing Great Xia to go to war with the orc empire in an all-out way!
"I underestimated him. ”
Su Chen's eyes flashed with gloom, he really underestimated the determination of the eldest prince.
Su Chen couldn't imagine that this person was so ruthless, he was not even afraid of death, and would rather set himself on fire than let the two countries go to war.
Chen Qun said in a deep voice: "Emperor, from this point of view, the Great Emperor of the Orcs is also a main battle faction, even more extreme. ”
"This battle is inevitable. ”
Guan Yiwu sighed.
No matter how the orc prince died, as long as he died in the territory of Great Xia and died in the imperial capital of Great Xia, a war between the two countries could not be avoided.
The eldest prince has a special status, and there are countless eyes on him, and this news can't be blocked for too long.
It's a pity, the situation in Daxia was originally very good, as long as Daxia was given some more time to develop its national strength.
But the Orc Empire refuses to give Great Xia this chance.
"What an orc empire!"
"A fire will burn out my prosperity. ”
Su Chen's voice was faint, which made everyone's hearts awe-inspiring.
The purpose of the Orc Empire is already very obvious, they don't want to see the Great Xia Dynasty usher in a prosperous era, they want to destroy the hope of the imminent rise of Great Xia, and drag the Great Xia Dynasty into the quagmire of all-out war.
