In a moment, Shangguan Liyi was short, covered himself with a cloak, and at the same time quickly took out the handkerchief in his arms, which was also soaked in water, and covered his mouth and nose.

Even so, the heat wave continued to pour in from all directions.

Shangguan Li did not panic, and maintained this posture and passed the staircase at an even speed.

All you can see are pulsing orange flames and thick black smoke.

I couldn't see it, so Shangguan Li simply looked at his feet intently and pricked up his ears.

The building was filled with the "crackling" sound of flames frantically biting something, and there was a pop from time to time, but other than that, there was silence.

Shangguan Li frowned, and slowly stopped against a corner of the wall where the flames had not yet burned.

At the same time, I recalled every corner of the second floor of the Lingshui Pavilion in my mind.

The layout of the second floor is simple, except for the master bedroom with large windows, there is only a small room for stacking miscellaneous items.

The staircase is facing the master bedroom, and on the left is the window, and from the staircase you follow the wall to the right and you will enter a cubicle, and after a corridor about 1.5 meters away, you will find the utility room.

Shangguan Li, risking the flames burning her eyebrows, straightened up and looked at the gaping window.

Behind the billowing black smoke, something was faintly moving, and it looked like it was indeed a human figure.

Shangguan Li shouted.

"Shangguan Yan?"

There was no response from the other end, and Shangguan Li waited for a while before he heard the sound of "hmm" coming from there.

Sounds like something is gagged.

Shangguan Li shouted again.

"If you're Shangguan Yan, snort twice, and if you're Aunt Su, snort."

Then she waited a while.

"Humph!"

Two tones.

"I heard you, you wait there for a while, I have to think of a way to go over and save you!"

After speaking, Shangguan Li lowered his eyebrows and showed a cool smile, and instead of moving forward, he touched the wall on the right.

The flames here were even more violent, but Shangguan Li did not hesitate, wrapped in a cloak and rolled into the corridor like a wet zongzi.

The space here is very small, and Shangguan Li just rolled in and experienced a sauna with the highest temperature level for free, the only difference from the sauna in her world is that one costs money, and the other will die.

Shangguan Li controlled the rate of breathing, and even though her body was soaked with hot sweat, her heart did not beat more than the value of normal running.

She crawled to the door in this position.

The door to this utility room is cast from non-flammable marble, and a heavy lock hangs from the door.

At the beginning, Shangguan Xun probably wanted to use this place as a place to store treasures, and deliberately made some fire prevention measures, but after Shangguan Li moved here, it was unlucky to be downgraded to a utility room.

But she remembers throwing the old lock out as if it were broken metal when she first arrived.

She didn't lock the door.

The extra locks out of thin air confirmed Shangguan Li's guess, but she didn't have more time to be complacent now.

The cloak on the head is getting hotter and hotter, and time is running out.

Shangguan Li wrapped the half-dried handkerchief in his hand around the lock, and the handkerchief immediately made a "hissing" sound.

After the temperature from his hands gradually became unbearable, Shangguan Li threw the blackened handkerchief into the fire.

The handkerchief suddenly stirred up a tall spark, and before the spark could wither, the silver needle in Shangguan Li's hand had already been inserted into the keyhole.

With a click, the lock was opened.

Shangguan Li took back the silver needle that had been roasted a little deformed, and quickly opened the door of the utility room.

With a burst of flames rising suddenly, Shangguan Li felt a chill in her neck before she could see the situation inside, and she flashed lightly, easily dodging this rough sneak attack, and at the same time said quickly.

"It's me!"

"Ahri?"

The voice was full of shock, and the woman who came out from behind the door was Shangguan Yan.

Seeing that as the door opened, the flames in the corridor suddenly soared higher due to air circulation, and Shangguan Li was not in the mood to investigate what Shangguan Yan's "Ah Li" was all about.

"Is Aunt Su in there?"

After the initial shock, Shangguan Yan, a female man who was accustomed to seeing big scenes on the battlefield, quickly calmed down.

"Yes."

"Take her with me and come with me."

Without waiting for Shangguan Li to finish speaking, Shangguan Yan had already walked to the corner of the wall on the side of the door first, and helped Su Qiubai, who had fainted, over.

Shangguan Li glanced at it roughly, and wrapped the half-burned cloak on his body around Su Qiubai.

Then he used the torn skirt corners to wrap himself and Shangguan Yan's hair, and finally took Su Qiubai from Shangguan Yan and put it on his back.

The movements of this set are smooth and clean.

"You ......"

"You don't have much strength now, do you?"

Shangguan Li said lightly.

Although Shangguan Yan followed Shangguan Li to the Lingshui Pavilion with his front and back feet, Shangguan Li delayed a lot of time in order to wait for the wind to stop.

Staying in a fire of this intensity for so long, that room is equivalent to an oven, normal people should be like Qiubai at this moment.

Shangguan Yan was not hypocritical when she heard this, and asked.

"What can I do for you?"

"There's a hammer in the utility room, you bring it out."

"Is this it?"

Shangguan Yan dragged out the half-human-tall hammer directly from his feet.

This is one of the preparations made by Shangguan Li in the three days before his birthday, who said that killers can't wield a sledgehammer, at the right time, a hard weapon is more useful than anything else.

Shangguan Li nodded quickly, speaking as fast as if he was about to take off.

"When we rush out, you will see a large window on the opposite side, and when Aunt Su and I get to the top of the stairs, hammer open the wall on the right side of the hallway facing the window, and then follow us as fast as you can."

"Remember, just hammer once, and if it doesn't work, follow us right away, understand?"

Shangguan Yan was stunned for a moment, the tone of Shangguan Li's voice reminded her of her own general who commanded the army, and before her mind could keep up, she had already subconsciously answered.

"Yes!"

Shangguan Li nodded in satisfaction, leaned down, and rushed into the fire in a wild animal posture.

Before the tongue of fire licked the skin, Shangguan Li carried Su Qiubai on his back and climbed to the staircase.

She didn't go out of her way to see Shangguan Yan's movements, but she heard a loud bang from the right rear, and the wall, which had been very fragile by the fire, cracked in response.

Shangguan Li carried Su Qiubai on his back and pulled Shangguan Yan who rushed over quickly, and the three of them rolled down the crumbling stairs.

Behind them, after a slight "zizi" sound, an earth-shattering explosion suddenly sounded, and a hideous pillar of fire rose into the sky, bringing up black smoke that covered the sky, like a doomsday scene in a special effects blockbuster.

Everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion raised their heads in a daze and saw half of the sky red by the flames.
