Chapter 288 The Sea of Fire is also the Sea

In the dead of night, Ma Sangui led a million soldiers and horses to come quietly, and the horses were wrapped in hooves, without a sound, and the villa was like an iron bucket.

At this time, thousands of soldiers carried stone-throwing carts to the front and placed them in a row around the villa, and then many monks came carrying wooden barrels with fire oil. They put the barrels on the stone throwing carts.

At the side of each stone-throwing cart stood a monk with a bow and arrows, which were now wound and wrapped in cloth soaked in fire oil. Shang Wanquan rode on the dragon horse, holding a small red flag in his hand, and with a slight wave, those monks made a flame on their fingertips, and lit the cloth ball, looking from a distance, like a group of dancing fireflies.

Immediately afterwards, Shang Wanquan waved the small red flag in his hand vigorously, and thousands of barrels of fire oil shot towards the villa like raindrops. At the same time, thousands of arrows with flames also shot out, the last to come, caught up with the barrel in the sky above a mountain villa, an arrow penetrated, the fire oil was ignited in an instant, one after another in the air exploded, rumbling, like brilliant fireworks, blooming in the air, and then turned into thousands of fire waterfalls, flying straight down, illuminating the sky, beautiful.

Most of the buildings in the villa are wooden structures, and when the oil falls, it is ignited instantly, and even if it is not burned, the oil is better than asking for oneself, and it will burn itself. There were also tens of thousands of monks standing on the top of the mountain, and when they saw that there was a fire below, they threw tens of thousands of barrels of fire oil from the top of the mountain, truly adding fuel to the fire.

The stone throwers outside the villa still did not stop, throwing barrels of oil one after another towards the villa, without pity, feeling that even if the people in the villa were not burned, they would be drowned in the oil.

Covering an area of 1,000 acres, the villa suddenly turned into a sea of fire, the flames were monstrous, several zhang high, and even the artificial lake was burning with raging fire, and the sky was burned red.

There were also tens of thousands of servants and girls guarding the villa, most of them were in their sleep, and they woke up suddenly, but when they rushed out of the door to take a look, their legs suddenly became weak, and they found that they had already entered hell before they died, and the flames were like a giant beast, opening their gluttonous mouths, and swallowing them up at once. Although the guards are all monks, many of them are Jin Dou Zidou, although their bodies are fast, but the ground is full of fire oil, and there is no place to insert it, not to mention that there is fire oil in the sky, like rain, once they get wet, they can't get rid of it, and they become fire people in an instant.

All of a sudden, the people in the villa shouted that the horses neighed, the ghosts cried and the wolves howled, and they rushed straight into the sky, moving the heavens and the earth.

Ma Shilling rode a horse and stood beside Ma Sangui, looking at the raging flames, with a proud face, and said: "Father, I said that you overestimated them, right? Don't say that they have three heads and six arms, even if they have wings, they have now become roasted wings." ”

Shang Wanquan couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water and said, "I wonder if they have discovered the secret way?"

Ma Sangui said: "Impossible, the secret path is extremely tight, and ordinary people can't find it at all." Besides, even if they are discovered, what can they do? I have heavy troops along the road and at the exit, and they can still dig holes in the ground and escape?"

Ma Shilling laughed cruelly and said, "That's it, I wish they would find the secret way, and I want to bury them alive in it, so that I can relieve my anger!"

Jiang Xiaobai led more than a thousand people to indeed enter the secret passage now, otherwise they would have no way out. Fortunately, the secret passage is long, dozens of miles, so many people stay in it and it does not seem crowded, and this secret passage is indeed tightly made, the top has been burned into a human purgatory, but there is not even a trace of fire below, only the sound of building collapse can be heard.

Although they escaped, they all still looked solemn, because hiding here was not a long-term solution, and they would be caught in the urn after the fire passed.

Jin Didi whispered, "Brother, why don't we kill from the other side of the secret path?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "You can't kill it, you can't even go up, you can't even go up, you can die one by one, maybe the hole has prepared copper juice and iron for us, you just opened the lid of the tunnel, and the copper juice and iron water will be poured down, and you will be cast into copper skin and iron bones immediately!"

Jin Didi couldn't help but shudder, and said, "So vicious? These beasts are really out of conscience! Then we can't just stay here forever, right? When the fire is over, we're going to be wiped out! Huh? Why don't we dig a tunnel and go?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "You come to dig, we will follow you after digging!"

Jin Didi glanced at him and said in frustration: "Then forget it, it feels like digging a grave for yourself, it's boring!" After a pause, he said: "Brother, tell me the truth, are we just waiting here to die?" If so, let us be mentally prepared to find a better way to die, I don't want to be burned to death, I don't want to be buried alive, and I don't want to be humiliated to death by the traitor, after all, I am the prince, and I will die with dignity!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Then how do you want to die?"

Jin Di said: "I haven't thought about how to die for a while, I'm still discussing, it seems that how to die is not what I want in my heart, it's like eating, no matter what seasoning is added, it's always difficult to swallow!"

Feng Yan said: "The metaphor of the prince is really appropriate, is it the experience that is usually summed up?"

Jin Di said: "Phew! I haven't eaten, I'm just guessing!"

Jiang Xiaobai frowned and said, "Can you stop being so disgusting?"

Langyue said: "That is, you are disgusted to death if you are not killed." ”

Jin Di said: "Don't say it, disgusting death is indeed the best way to die, I like it more, it doesn't hurt or itch!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "It's not certain whether you die or not, if you don't even have the confidence to live, then there is really only one way to die." ”

Jin Didi perked up and said, "Brother, do you still have a way?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "There is no specific way yet, so I can only wait!"

Jin Didi was stunned: "What are you waiting for?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Wait for someone!"

Jin Di said happily: "Who are you waiting for? Brother, you won't have any reinforcements, right? Why haven't I heard about it? Where are you hiding? Are you hiding in your crotch?"

Jiang Xiaobai glanced at him and said, "If we can get out alive, I think you should return the crown prince to your father, you are really not suitable to be the prince!"

Jin Didi pursed his lips and said, "If you think I want to, didn't I pick it up? Don't do it in vain!"

The fire burned for an hour, and when the oil was burned out, the fire gradually became smaller, but the trees on the mountain were burning vigorously, stretching for dozens of miles, and it was magnificent.

The other messengers who had come to congratulate him from nine ways saw the flames rushing to the sky, and knew that it was where the princess lived, and they did not sleep, so they hurried over.

When they arrived, they could no longer see the stone throwing truck and the oil drum, but saw many people carrying buckets to fight the fire, although there were many people fighting the fire, but unfortunately the water source was far away, and a bucket was brought in half a day, or it was slowly rising, not like fighting the fire, but like watering the flowers.

The messengers of the nine roads are basically walking in various ways, and they also have some status in the country, at this time, they rode around in front of Ma Sangui, and Ding Lu walked and said: "Dare to ask the generalissimo, what's wrong?"

Ma Sangui looked distressed and said: "A capital crime! This villa is usually fine, why did the princess leave the water as soon as she came? It was really unexpected! I don't know how the princess is doing now? If the princess has three longs and two shorts, how should I explain to the emperor?"

Smelling the strong smell of fire oil at the scene, he suddenly knew it, and he couldn't help but be secretly frightened, thinking that this Ma Sangui even dared to kill the princess, I'm afraid that he was really ready to rebel, right?

Ding Lu walked and said, "I'm afraid someone set it on fire, right?"

Ma Sangui nodded, and said: "Mu Xing's speculation is not unreasonable, after the princess is rescued, I will definitely investigate this matter, if someone dares to set fire to the sky, I will punish him for the nine clans!"

Although the Nine Great Walks listened to him speak righteously and strictly, none of them believed it in their hearts, this thing was like lice on the bald head, obviously, it was clearly his own fire, and the thief shouted to catch the thief, but the Nine Great Walks were not a heart, some of them were full of righteous indignation, and some of them were indifferent, it was none of their business, they hung high, and they were still on other people's territory, even if they had ideas in their hearts, they could only hold back.

Mu Xing gritted his teeth and said, "If the fire is too big, it will only cause fire!"

Ma Sangui ignored his pun, and shouted at everyone to hurry up and put out the fire, as if he was really in a hurry.

After another hour, under the "hard fighting" of everyone, the fire in the villa was finally extinguished, and it was a mess, with green smoke everywhere.

Ma Sangui drove his horse to the front of the villa and shouted: "Hurry up and search for the princess for me!"

Thousands of people responded, rushed into the ashes of the villa, rummaging everywhere, for Ma Sangui, it was just to make a show, the villa was burned like this, it would be good to find the princess's bones, let alone save it!

Sure enough, as everyone thought in their hearts, thousands of people hastily rummaged through the villa, and then returned in vain, and there was no complete corpse in the villa, and even the bones had turned into charcoal.

Ma Sangui looked up to the sky and sighed: "Heaven has no virtue for a good life!"

Ma Shilling said pretendly: "Father don't have to be sad, God is like this, we have done our best!

Seeing the father and son behaving coyly, Mu Xing gritted his teeth with hatred, but he didn't have any choice, he just wanted to report the matter to the emperor as soon as possible and let him prepare early, but Ma Sangui rebelled.

A few walkers, whether sincere or fake, shook their heads and sighed, and prepared to leave, how could such a big matter be quickly reported to the generalissimo, so that they could prepare and stand in line early.

Unexpectedly, just as they turned around and were about to leave, they heard a loud "bang", the ruins exploded, charcoal ashes flew horizontally, and a figure rushed out of the sky and stood on top of the ashes.

Mu Xing's eyes were sharp, and he recognized it from a distance, and he was surprised and delighted, and said, "General Zheng!"
