Chapter 18: Malicious Arsonists

The word "fire" was tantamount to a thunderclap in the flat ground, which made everyone in the Zhong family, who was originally sitting and eating, get up in an instant.

Running out of the house, the direction of the kitchen was indeed burning, and along with the direction of the wind, it had burned to the east wing closest to the kitchen, and there was a tendency to spread to the hall where they had just eaten.

And Zhou Ye, who was the first to discover the fire and remind everyone to come out, is struggling to put out the fire at the moment.

Seeing this, Zhong Sihai hurriedly asked Zhong Dashan to flee outside with his wife, children, father and mother, plus Zhong Lingyu, while he and his other two brothers assisted Zhou Ye in fighting the fire.

About half an hour, the fire in the Zhong family was finally extinguished.

During this period, the sky-high flames also made the villagers living in Shangcun poke their heads out to watch, and even more enthusiastic people directly rolled up their sleeves to join the firefighting team of the Zhong brothers.

Looking at the half-burned courtyard of the Zhong family, everyone in the Zhong family was heartbroken, because this was not only the loss of money and things, but also the destruction of their family's habitat.

"Alas, Brother Zhong Qi, why are you not careful with the fire in your home, it's getting colder this day, and things are also irritable, and it's most easy to catch fire, but fortunately, it didn't hurt anyone, so let's build it back slowly in the future." In the crowd, a man who had a good relationship with the Zhong family patted Zhong Wangnian on the shoulder and comforted him.

"Thank you for your relief, I will be careful when I go back, and so will you." Zhong Wangnian replied energetically.

However, at this moment, Zhou Ye, who was the first of the Zhong family to discover the fire, stood up and said to everyone: "Uncle, the fire of the Zhong family was not caused by accident, but was deliberately put by someone. ”

"What did you say?!" After Zhong Sihai wiped the black ash on his face, he immediately looked at Zhou Ye with wide eyes.

"Tonight I had some discomfort in my stomach, so I went to the hut before eating, and as soon as I came out after washing my hands, I saw a pile of firewood in the kitchen, and before I could help it, I fired a few rockets from a distance."

Speaking of this, a trace of guilt unconsciously appeared on Zhou Ye's face, "I flew to catch two, but one didn't catch one, and then the matchpile was ignited."

Sorry, it's all my ......."

"Cousin Aye, don't say that, you've done your best." Seeing this, Zhong Lingyu hurriedly stepped forward to hold Zhou Ye's hand and comforted, "You also said it, it was intentional by others, how can you prevent it alone?" ”

"No, it's not like this......" Facing Zhong Lingyu's comfort, Zhou Ye not only did not feel less guilty, but blamed himself even more.

I saw him standing in place with a dull expression and muttering, "I used to be able to catch all the arrows, but why can't I now...... Why ......"

"Cousin Ah Ye, calm down."

Seeing that the person began to cover his head in pain again while talking, Zhong Lingyu seemed to realize something, and hurriedly hugged the person, and comforted him softly: "You have always been very powerful, but you have been injured recently, Dr. Zhang said that when you are healed, you can be as powerful as before, take your time, okay?" ”

"Good ......" seemed to be moved by Zhong Lingyu's words, and Zhou Ye's mood also eased.

Inevitably stimulated people again, Zhong Lingyu glanced at his fourth brother, and then hurriedly took Zhou Ye back to the well-preserved house of the Zhong family to rest.

After the two left, Zhong Sihai also stood up and said solemnly: "Daddy, folks, you also heard it just now, it seems that someone deliberately wants to rectify our Zhong family, although I, Zhong Sihai, don't know who it is now, but I want to say that if I find out and catch it, I will definitely return it."

I hope the people behind it will do it well! ”
