Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Power of Fire
As the smoke rose, the firelight illuminated the night sky of the entire Dragon's Breath City red. Gu Zheji rubbed his eyes fiercely a few times, and after confirming that all this was true, he grabbed the Gu family deacon with his backhand and shouted, "Who the did this!"
"Less... Master... Ahem, ahemβ" The man struggled to break free from his grip and bent over and coughed dryly.
Gu Chensheng breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the other party's uncalm appearance, and secretly shook his head in his heart.
"Pervert, leave him alone. Su Xihe said.
"It's also the Gu family's industry, no matter what, you can't let him go crazy here. Gu Chensheng stepped forward, he learned the methods of Su Xi and when he woke up Luo Teng and the others, and directly slapped Gu Zheji in the face.
It's just that he doesn't have any tricks to awaken his spirit, and Gu Zheji hasn't been disturbed.
"Calm down! Don't go to put out the fire first!" Gu Chensheng clapped his hands, and the clouds were light.
β... Oh no, Li Ying is still inside!"
A hint of panic flashed in Gu Zheji's eyes, he covered his face blankly, and looked back at the huge pillar of smoke that went straight to the sky.
"What's the fuss, follow me!" Gu Chensheng, who didn't want to meddle in this matter, was also stunned when he heard this, if the daughter of the Li family in the imperial capital patrol city mansion died in their Gu family for some reason, no matter what the fault was, I am afraid that their Gu family would not be able to avoid responsibility.
Gu Chensheng took a deep breath, he tried to mobilize the energy of the stars, and after finding that there was nothing abnormal, he ignored Gu Zheji's reaction and swept directly towards the fire.
"Yunchen Gongzi, the old man is with you..."
Uncle Hefa caught up from behind and was about to go together, Gu Chensheng hurriedly said, "No, Uncle stayed to take care of Aunt Yun." β
Gu Chensheng's figure rose up again, turning into a streamer and rushing towards the source of the fire.
The other storefronts in this street have long been in chaos, but fortunately, because the streets are full of hail, the fire has not spread, and many people are pointing and watching, at the end of the crowd, Qian Yuting, who has long removed his disguise, shook his folding fan and gloated all over his face.
"The Gu family... I want to see how many such blows can a family that survives for a few years. β
The bustling crowd was forcibly squeezed open a passage by a group of deacons, and the third elder of the Gu family looked at the scene in front of him with a pale face, he looked around left and right, and said angrily: "Where have all the people died, what about Gu Zheji?
No one answered, it was inevitable that they were a little embarrassed, the third elder's face trembled, and ordered: "All of you go to find a water source to extinguish the fire, and the old man goes inside to have a look." β
"Yes!" the deacons replied with a nod.
The rest of the onlookers didn't dare to offend the Gu family's bad luck at this time, and after seeing the faces of the three elders, they all consciously got out of the way for the Gu family deacon to get water to extinguish the fire.
The three long tiger bodies shook and their robes flew, and the energy of the stars was filled, and a wisp of pale cyan energy was like water, running from his star core for a week, and then condensed into a physical barrier on the surface of the three elders' bodies.
He rushed in without looking back.
As a heat wave hit him, Gu Chensheng also appeared outside the city, he looked at the color of the flames, and said in his heart: "Could it be that the furnace has fallen?"
"The dark red flame is the fire of the earth. Su Xihe said.
Gu Chensheng frowned slightly, sniffing the smell of burnt paste wafting in the air, and he could vaguely smell a few wisps of meat in it.
"Hey, is there a way to extinguish the fire?" Gu Chensheng asked.
"No cherry blossoms," Su Xihe replied very simply.
β...β
I sighed helplessly in my heart. Gu Chensheng's heart moved, and he suddenly saw a figure suddenly emerge from the raging flames.
He was taken aback, and subconsciously stepped forward to answer, but after seeing the face of the comer, the action of stepping forward suddenly paused, and the heart that was hanging was also put down a lot.
Seeing the third elder walk out with a dark face carrying two charred corpses, Gu Chensheng couldn't tell whether he was angry or smoked at a glance.
In the distance, Gu Zheji and several Gu family deacons ran over.
The third elder looked up, his gaze first stopped on Gu Chensheng for a moment, and then when he saw Gu Zheji, he suddenly couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and shouted over there: "Okay, you Gu Zheji! The old man asked you to look at the store, where did you take all the people!"
The fire in the center of the earth is the most difficult to extinguish, otherwise people would not have used this extremely hot flame to cast iron.
It's just that this effect of earth fire has become a big problem for the Gu family at this time.
Buckets of water poured into the market from outside, but before most of the water could hit the ground, it was turned into steam by the high temperature, and the fire was still blazing.
"Alas..."Looking at Gu Zheji's appearance of bowing his head and not saying a word, the three elders sighed slightly, this Fang City, which occupies a part of the Gu family's income and expenses... Ruined.
"Hey, what are you doing in a daze, extinguishing the fire!" Gu Chensheng pinched the trick with one hand, drew the talisman array again with his fingertips, he drew a lump of ice from the street on the side, and threw it directly towards the most intense place without aiming.
"If the fire is allowed to burn like this, once it spreads to other shops, it will be bad!" Gu Chensheng continued.
"Yes, hurry up and put out the fire!" the third elder was stunned, and hurriedly said.
The rest of the people took action one after another, and the deacons who were running back and forth with buckets suddenly slapped their foreheads after seeing Gu Chensheng's actions, and they also threw the hailstones that could be seen everywhere towards Zheng of the fire
It's funny.
Gu Chensheng's shouting also reminded those onlookers that after all, they were really going to be affected by the fire, and when the time came, the protagonist who was watched as lively would have to be replaced. In this way, it also attracted the participation of some onlookers, and many people didn't know if it was fresh, and they also picked up the ice cubes and threw them towards the market.
"It's better than nothing. Gu Chensheng also sighed slightly when he saw this scene, this fire is strange, if it is not artificial, it would be too low on their IQ.
Gu Chensheng took the opportunity to extinguish the fire and quietly looked for something from the crowd.
Sure enough, after some onlookers helped extinguish the fire, Qian Yuting's standing figure was particularly obvious.
Gu Chensheng took two steps back and came to the third elder, at this time he played the role of a chivalrous man who acted bravely, so instead of treating him coldly, the third elder squeezed out a smile and said, "Thank you young man for helping." β
"Don't be busy, look over there. Gu Chensheng didn't hide it, and pointed towards the place where Qian Yuting was.
"It's him, Qian Yuting!" The three elders turned their heads to look, and after seeing Qian Yuting's gaze towards this side, they muttered: "Shaoxia, you are this fire, he put it? See?"
On it together
