Chapter 113: Fire in the Fire

Gui Hongyu said: "Miss Mei, you can poison more than 30 of them, and your skills are very great." When we get to Caizhou, you can bring out more poison and make them look good. ”

Ye Flood said: "Senior sister, let's not talk about these troubles. I just want to ask you, you just said that you will marry the owner of Bao Er Zhuang in the future, is this your own conjecture? Or is there really such a thing?"

Gui Hongyu said: "Anyway, you don't want to marry me, I will marry Second Brother Bao, don't you allow it?"

Ye Flood said: "Then how dare I? Second Brother Bao's personality is really tens of thousands of times stronger than my Night Flood, it's too late for me to be happy for you, how can I stop it? I'm afraid that this matter is just thinking about it yourself, and the second brother Bao doesn't have this mind, and in the end you will end up empty, but you will be sad and sad." ”

Gui Hongyu smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this, I won't in the end, and I won't be sad." Second Brother Bao's thoughts, I know very well. ”

Night Flood said: "That's good, that's good." ”

Mei Zhanxue stopped and said, "Night Hero, Miss Gui, all your pretentiousness and this speech are all said to me, don't you? You don't know, now that I'm older, and I've experienced so many things, and now that I'm older, I'm no longer so stupid, and I don't think like that anymore, why don't you still refuse to let me go? I have to cut off my hair and become a nun, or marry someone at will, are you happy in your hearts? You are like this, how can I go to Caizhou with you?"

Chu Qingliu hurriedly said: "Third sister, you really misunderstood. Brother Ye and Miss Gui may have a lot of problems on their bodies, but they will never knock on the side, turn and talk, and they will not do this to you. In the coming days, you will know who these two people are. Miss Gui said that she wanted to marry the second brother Bao, this is the first time I have heard it, it is very novel, and it is reasonable for the night brother to ask a few words. The fate in the world is not only husband and wife, friends, brothers and sisters, masters and apprentices, and fellow disciples, even if they are enemies, they are all destined to be predestined for the future, and compared to unrelated people, they are already intimate. ”

Gui Hongyu said: "I don't agree with this. Since fate is the same, would you like not marry Miss Qu and marry me? Would you like Miss Qu to marry Second Brother Bao or marry my senior brother? Do you feel very sad when you think of these things and hear these words?"

Ye Flood sighed: "Senior sister, you are too stupid after all, you always take things too easily. Speaking of which, people like you shouldn't marry anyone in the first place---" This is really weird.

Mei Zhanxue was puzzled: "Why?"

Ye Flood said: "Because she thinks that marriage is too indifferent." As long as there is a reason for three or two points, you are willing to marry yourself. Even if I am an innocent and ugly ghost, she can chase me to force me to marry at the beginning, but it is conceivable that she is very confused and casual about marrying. However, Second Brother Bao is as confused as her, the same casual, and the same unwilling to figure it out, the two of them are really a couple. ”

Mei Zhanxue said: "Night hero, you are a man, and you know a lot about getting married, tell me, what kind of person am I?"

Ye Flood said: "This is nothing unusual, maybe my previous life, my previous life, all of them were women's bodies, and I can understand a little bit of women's minds." But I really can't say what kind of person you are. All I know is that you are a person who is not easy to get rid of. If I get tired of the night flood, I may cut my hair and become a monk, but it is difficult for you to cut my hair and become a nun. Even if you can shave your hair and move to a nunnery, it's just a fake. In your life, you are destined to be entangled too much, and you will not be born until you die. It's not early, and this road is not a place to talk, to Caizhou, there are still hundreds of miles to go, we can't afford to delay, let's walk. So saying, he got on his horse and ran away.

On the afternoon of the third day, a group of four people came to the outside of Shibalipu Village in Caizhou.

There are still more than three miles of road from the village, and the south wind blows, faintly with the smell of fire ash. Chu Qingliu glanced at the night flood and ran quickly. After the fire spread, none of the low-rise houses on the left and right sides of the mansion were spared, and the fire continued to burn until the main road in the village was blocked. I don't know how many living creatures were burned in the ashes, although there was no spark smoke to be seen at the moment, and the thick scorching stench was still pungent.

In June, the large and small trees were growing luxuriantly, but all the big trees within four or five feet of the fire were burned to the point that only the black and bare trunks remained, and the small trees were burned clean by the roots, leaving only fire marks.

On both sides of the village road, in the shadows of the walls, there are white stubble coffins or corpses parked at short intervals. But I couldn't hear much crying, and I thought that the villagers were either exhausted or too shocked. I can't cry anymore.

The frail old man stood by the fire with his or her toddler in hand, and several half-grown children rummaged through the ashes with wooden sticks, looking down for scattered relics, and their faces were all solemn.

The two dismounted and asked the villagers what had happened. Even when I asked a few people, they all shook their heads and walked away, obviously unwilling to say more and unwilling to deal with them.

At this time, Gui Hongmei Zhanxue had also arrived, and Ye Flood said: "Senior sister, it is really miserable for you to go with me to Caizhou City tonight to rob the silver and try to settle these villagers." Mei Zhanxue said: "I'll go too." ”

Gui Hongxuan stopped an old man and asked kindly, "Old man, how many people have been burned to death in the village in this fire?"

The old man shook his head and said, "I don't know how many people died, I haven't counted them, and I can't count them if I want to, anyway, in most of the villages in front of me, there are dead people in every family." The mules, horses, and livestock that were burned to death, and the food and things that were burned were even more, and even if they didn't die, what could they rely on to live? It was not cold at any time, and if we endured a little shame, could we still not wear clothes for the time being, and could we not eat food? What can we eat? Will we eat ash and soil? Girl, tell me about it?" he stretched out his hand to wipe his tears, shook his head and sighed and left.

Ye Flood said: "We are all on the wrong side of the Zang Sayi, he is doing a lot of things in Xiangyang City, holding meetings, and setting fire to kill people here, which can be regarded as two without delay." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "We did something wrong, so that Wuzang Sayi saw the flaw." But I was thinking in my heart, I don't know if Qu Lingyu was also burned to death in the fire, and of course Liu Qichan Bao Honghuang.

Gui Hongyu said: "Mr. Qu, Mr. Shi, as well as Liu Daochang, Second Brother Bao, Miss Qu, they all have great skills, if you want to say that they all burned to death with the fire of Wuzang Sayi, I must not believe it." ”

"I don't believe it either, but if they're not dead, where are the people?"

Mei Zhanxue suddenly said: "Someone is here at the entrance of the village. Hearing her words, the three of them drew their swords in unison and turned to look.

On the road outside the village, there were more than ten large cars lined up in a line, coming together. The car is slow and seems to be heavily loaded.

The four of them rushed up to catch up, and when they saw the Lifu coachman, the one who went forward was Qu Lingyu, and the one who was behind was Bao Honghuang. The cart was full of goods, and in addition to the clothes and mosquito nets, the most common thing was to eat and cookware. Wang intimate oil fat woman, one thin and one fat, also walked the side. Love Book House

The four of them hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Qu Lingyu's eyes were red, and he said, "Senior brother, Miss Gui, Night Hero, you are finally here." ”

Chu Qing said: "Don't worry, say it slowly if you have something to say." ”

The cart drove into the village, and the six led Lifu to distribute all the things one by one. The last two carts were all loaded with silver taels, more than 20,000 taels of silver, half of the village burned sixty or seventy households, each family could get more than 300 taels, although not every household was satisfied, especially human life, let alone silver, but it can only be so. Qu Lingyu didn't ask how many people were in each household, whether there were dead or injured people, how many were dead and how many were injured, but they were distributed from house to house.

It took nearly two hours to sort it out. In the end, there were still three pieces of silver that were not received, and it is said that all three families were burned to death.

After sending away the empty car, Qu Lingyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Senior brother, this matter can only be done like this in front of us, let's go." If you have anything to say, you can say it on the road. ”

The six of them had only four horses, and it was difficult to walk, so they simply threw the horses to the villagers and used all on foot.

Gui Hongyu said: "Miss Qu, Mr. Qu, are they all right, how did this fire burn?"

Qu Lingyu shook his head and said, "My father, Uncle Shi, are all trapped in the fire, they can't come out, they die, and only Uncle Wu Hao is still there." Liu Qichan, Liu Daochang, Second Brother Bao, they are fine, Liu Daochang is still in Caizhou City. Just last night, Uncle Wu, the second brother of Bao, helped me temporarily bury my father and Uncle Shi nearby, and then moved them back to Qujia Dazhai after removing the unhidden Sayi. But he didn't say how the fire started.

Chu Qingliu said: "Didn't this fire be set by Sayi?"

Qu Lingyu still shook his head and said, "I don't know either." At noon the day before yesterday, Liu Daochang came to me, saying that he had been living in this village these days, and he was very bored, and he wanted to have a big meal and a big game in Caizhou City. took the second brother Bao to go with him, and he had to let me accompany the two of them. I said that I went, or I was transferred from the side of the kitchen, and his gold and silver were not considered for nothing. I was grateful that he was willing to come here to help my father at a great age, and he begged me with kind words, but I really couldn't agree, so I went to Caizhou with them. When I think about it, it's barely safe these days, so I'm a little careless. When the fat woman heard that there was something delicious, she also wanted to go, and Liu Daochang's mood was not bad, so he agreed. ”

"As soon as Liu Daochang entered Caizhou City, it was like a child at a temple fair, everything had to be played, everything had to be watched. I took a bath and grate, listened to books, and listened to plays, and I didn't eat until it was dark. ”

Gui Hongyu said: "I heard him say that if you have to eat until you are hungry, the food will be fragrant, and it is all because of this old man's bad things." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "This can't be blamed on Daochang Liu, even if it was me, I didn't expect that with only this little half a day's work, something could happen." ”

Liu Daochang had just drunk a few glasses of wine, and Xiao Er, a guest inside and outside the store, shouted, saying that there was a fire in the northwest outside the city, and the fire must not be small. Let's go out and go up to the high house to see, it is the eighteen-mile shop, although in the city can not see the bright fire, but half of the sky is all bright red and bright. ”

"When we hurried back, the fire had burned and was flourishing, there was no way to save it, and there was no need to save it, Daddy and Uncle Shi were all dead. It hadn't rained for more than a month, and everything was dry, and it could catch fire when it caught fire, and there was really no way to extinguish it, so I could only watch it burn. ”

"The fire started in the small houses around it, and the main hall where my father and Uncle Shi were sitting was the latest to catch fire, and according to their skills, this fire could not have trapped them. It's all just a coincidence, we just went to Caizhou, and many brothers nearby rushed over to discuss with my father, crowding a room of people. This fire is not an ordinary fire, the Kongtong faction added sulfur black oil produced in the Western Regions to it, and as soon as they smelled the smell of fireworks, the fire became a fire. The most terrible thing is not the fire, but the poisonous black smoke, inhaling a little, the person with a slightly lower internal force will not be clear, and he does not know where to rush. Uncle Wu and Uncle Shi led the brothers with higher martial arts to rush out first, kill the enemy and meet the brothers who came later, and Daddy inspected the fire at the entrance of the hall and assigned the brothers to break through from where they wouldn't trample on each other. ”

But how could he know that even if the people he saved with his life could rush out, they would all let the people who were guarding outside from Kongtong be killed. ”

Chu Qingliu said: "All of them were killed?

Qu Lingyu lowered his head and said, "I don't know, Uncle Wu and Uncle Shi have not seen Wuzang Sayi, so they can't recognize it." I heard Uncle Wu say that there are quite a few people sent by Kongtong, there are two people in it, it is difficult for him and Uncle Shi to win one-on-one, and there is another person, who can kill one of our brothers with one or two moves by raising his hand. It stands to reason that he didn't hide Sayi and didn't come, but it's hard to say whether he hid aside and watched secretly. After all, setting fire to the fire in secret is a dirty business, and even if he does, he will not show his face. ”

"While the two uncles are fighting, they have to pay attention to the father who is gathered inside. Seeing that no one could come out of the fire again, Uncle Shi Han suddenly gave up his opponent and wanted to go to the fire to save his father. He rushed in, but couldn't get out again. ”

"Outside the field, the three Kongtong faction masters surrounded Uncle Wu alone, how could he be able to defeat alone? When he encountered danger, when he saw that he was about to lose, Uncle Wu leaned on the edge of the fire, intending to drag them into the fire one by two to die together. Those people from the Kongtong faction, they are now gaining momentum, they are complacent, and there are still so many good days that have not passed, how can they be willing to die? It is precisely because of this that Uncle Wu was lucky enough to drag the three of us back. ”

"Before Liu Daochang Bao Second Brother made a move, the people of the Kongtong faction dispersed. When the fire was extinguished, we went in and looked at it, and saw that there were more than 20 people dead, and they were very miserable. Uncle Wu didn't let me see more, and with everyone's weapons and scattered objects that could not be burned, he roughly identified the corpses, and also found the remains of his father and Uncle Shi, and bought a coffin for burial. said that the current situation is very unpeaceful, if you want to send the coffin back to the Qu family's Dazhai, you must alarm Wuzang Sayi, and then be intercepted by him, it is too sorry for the two elders, so I am not allowed to escort the coffin back to my hometown. I found a place to bury me temporarily, and made a secret note. ”

"If such a major event happens, I can't help but report it to Mrs. Wei Daxia in the east, and they know that Uncle Wu has assigned the nearby brothers to do it. ”

Qu Lingyu talked lightly, but Chu Qingliu felt a chill in his heart when he heard it.

Qu Guanghan had previously sent someone to invite Wuzang Sayi to go to Liaozhou for a public duel, and he had no intention of delaying and evading, and he would not hide. Wuzang Sayi dragged it out and did not reply, while taking the opportunity to try to annex the Kainan Dart Bureau in Xiangyang, and at the same time secretly tracking the whereabouts of everyone and doing this big tragedy. In order to kill Qu Guanghan alone, he did not hesitate to burn dozens of lives in half a village, and his patience was really rare.

With his martial arts, he can easily win against Qu Guanghan and kill people on the spot, why bother setting fire to his back and doing this villainous act?

Is it only the behavior of villains and scoundrels that can truly make people shudder and chill in their bones?

This is not hidden, it is really incomprehensible.
