Chapter Fifty-Six: Saving People

At this time, Shangguan Bu and Jia Ding finally rushed over out of breath.

When Shangguan Bu saw this scene, his legs and stomach immediately began to weaken again, but he still moved to Shangguan Li's side and asked anxiously.

"What about them, what about Aunt Su and Sister A?"

Shangguan Li's face was no more like a demon than it was now, and she frowned slightly.

"Upper."

Shangguan Bu raised his head suddenly, and also saw the fluttering pale red, and the next moment he wanted to raise his feet and rush into the fire.

Fortunately, Shangguan Liyan quickly pulled him down.

As soon as Shangguan Bu turned around, his expression was about to burst, but Shangguan Li just grabbed him coldly, and the strength in his hand was incredibly strong.

"You go in now, is there anything else you can do besides having an extra handful of ashes here?"

"I don't care, sister, she ......"

"Shut up and get out of the way."

Xuanyuan Ye's eyes had always been on Shangguan Li's body, and when she said this, he found that her eyes, which were already much lighter than ordinary people, were like a thin layer of glaze, glowing with a frightening cold light.

He smiled silently, and there was a little more interest in his eyes.

Shangguan Bu was also shocked by that cold gaze for a moment, and then before he could react, he felt the power on his wrist tighten and loosen.

Then he came into close contact with the earth unexpectedly, and his head slammed into the slate that had been warmed by the fire, and he was in a trance.

Looking coldly at Shangguan Bu who was thrown out, Xuanyuan Ye maintained that absolutely calm tone.

"What does the county lord want to do now?"

"Save people."

"You want to go in?"

He finally showed a little surprise.

Shangguan Li's tone was light.

"Of course, what else am I going to do here? Not now, though, wait a little longer. ”

As she said this, her eyes did not take her eyes off the pale red shirt that swayed in the smoke.

"The county lord should know that Shangguan Yan is not in that place."

Shangguan Li's eyes narrowed.

That's right.

Although she has only seen Shangguan Yan this time with her own eyes, this eldest lady of the Xiangfu is not at all different from those ladies who are soaked in the warm breeze and soft water.

If she still had the strength to walk to the window, she would have chosen to jump rather than sit still.

But after such a long time, there has been no movement of the "people" there.

So Shangguan Li had to wonder if it was Shangguan Yan or not.

"Know you're still going?"

Xuanyuan Ye used a very inappropriate tone of small talk, as if he was just talking to her about whether to drink tea or not.

Shangguan Li finally glanced at him, his voice terrifyingly calm.

"Wouldn't the general want to go and see who is secretly playing this trick like a rat in the gutter when he encounters such a situation?"

The firelight gave Xuanyuan Ye's mask a warm color, and the eyes under the mask were still shrouded in a warm mist that made people feel close, making people feel that this was really a peerless boy in the world.

Pianpian said with a smile.

"The county lord really understands the night, if it were me, I might have to catch the rats and peel them and cramp them."

It's good, it's not pretended.

Shangguan Li pulled a faint smile, true and false.

"I just like honest people like generals."

Just as the two of them were talking, under the bright sun, the ripples that kept reverberating on the surface of the lake in the distance gradually subsided.

The wind stopped.

Shangguan Li walked to Shangguan Bu, who was lying on the ground and had not yet recovered his senses, and then took off the cloak that was very valuable at first glance on his body, and threw it into the water and stirred it several times.

It wasn't until every silk thread on the cloak was soaked in the cold lake water that he scooped it up and walked towards the Lingshui Pavilion with the cloak.

As she passed through the night of Xuanyuan, she paused and said.

"It is estimated that there will be people here later, I hope the general can stop them then."

"Why?"

He asked politely, but his eyes were clearly saying: Why?

"There is no play in vain in the world, you have to give some hard-earned money."

"That's right. Well, the night promised the county lord, but I have one condition. ”

Shangguan Li's forehead jumped, didn't this person say that he was boring? I found him so much fun and still wanted to be paid?

Seeing that Shangguan Li's face sank, Xuanyuan Ye quickly added.

"In exchange, if there is a follow-up to this matter outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, the night will help the county lord keep an eye on it."

"Deal."

The eldest husband can bend and stretch, and Shangguan Li answered cleanly and decisively.

The reason why the water in Xiangfu is deep is because the bottom of this pond does not know which ocean it is connected to, who is the "master" around Feng Sichen, who is the "master" in Zhang Yuanniang's letter, are they alone or belong to different forces.

These things can't be figured out by Shangguan Li alone in a short period of time.

But Xuanyuan Ye is different, although on the surface he only has power in the army, but Shangguan Li didn't believe that this person didn't secretly cultivate manpower.

She was at ease with this dangerous task entrusted to him.

Xuanyuan Ye had expected Shangguan Li to agree, blinked his eyes, and said with a smile.

"Let's not talk about the conditions now, and I'll tell you when the county lord comes back safely."

Shangguan Li looked at him deeply.

When she comes back from the fire, whether she wants to complete his conditions or not depends on her mood.

So she nodded, didn't talk nonsense, turned around and walked into the first floor of the Lingshui Pavilion.

Those who were still putting out the fire, I don't know if it was because they were afraid of Shangguan Li or something else, but no one came up to stop her.

When the little golden stars scurrying in front of Shangguan Bu finally stopped, he looked in the direction of the entrance of the Lingshui Pavilion, where there was no Shangguan Li's figure.

The Lingshui Pavilion is now like an hourglass with a small upper and lower size, and the flames are pouring down from all directions on the upper floor, and when they see something, they are heading towards the center of the first floor to attack the city and plunder the ground.

Although it looks scary, the situation on the first floor is already much better than Shangguan Li imagined.

The engulfment of the flames was very slow, and a big reason was that almost everything on the first floor was emptied by Shangguan Li, resulting in not enough incendiary materials.

She glanced at it quickly, and was somewhat surprised to find that the stairs up the second floor had not yet been burned, saving her a lot of trouble.

Shangguan Li draped the wet cloak over his body and stepped up the stairs.

The higher you go, the higher the temperature, the thicker the smoke, and soon it reaches the point where it is almost breathless.

Fortunately, Shangguan Li has been trained to resist extreme environments, and she can still cope with this level.

After a while, Shangguan Li came to the last staircase, and as she turned the staircase, a suffocating heat wave rushed to her face.

The tongue of fire, which was three feet high, surged in front of her, threatening to engulf Shangguan Li.
