Chapter 011 Qingyuan Fire
"Ah, sister-in-law, what should I do?" After all, Lin Ziqin was young. As soon as she heard the fire, she panicked and grabbed Haiman's arm tightly.
Haiman calmed down for a moment, "Ziqin, you are familiar with the road. Go and call someone to put out the fire. I'll go to Luyang Courtyard to inform the young master!"
"Well, good!" Lin Ziqin promised and turned around and ran to call someone.
As soon as he spoke, the fire had risen, and the flames climbed up along the branches and leaves of the trees. By the wind, they became more and more fierce. Luyangyuan is next to Qingyuan, and the wind is blowing this way. According to this trend, it will soon burn to Luyangyuan. Hyman didn't dare to delay, so he ran to Luyangyuan in one breath.
"Young master, young master..." She raised her voice and shouted a few times, but no one answered. She went into the room and walked around. She didn't see half a person. She wanted to come to Qi Wenhao and go out.
At this time, thick smoke had drifted from the sky, blown back into the yard by the wind, and there was a pungent smell everywhere. Affected by the fire, the air also became hot.
It seemed that the fire would burn at any time. Hyman dared not stay for a long time and quickly walked out of the yard. Luyangyuan and Qingyuan are both in the northeast corner of Linfu. The separate courtyards are far away, and half a figure can't be seen in broad daylight. She doesn't understand why Qi Wenhao lives in such a remote place...
She ran to the stone bridge in one breath, but suddenly stopped, and the sound of someone calling for help faintly came from the firelight. She listened carefully, only the sound of burning things, and I think she heard it wrong. She raised her feet to leave, and the cry for help came intermittently. She listened carefully, but she couldn't hear it again.
What's going on? Is there anyone still living in the forbidden land? Mei Xinger said that it was haunted here...
Although Hyman doesn't believe in ghosts, he is also a little scared in this situation. However, there is no one around. Lin Ziqin went to call people. I don't know why it's so slow!
What should I do? She stood in the middle of the stone bridge and hesitated. If someone was really trapped in it, wouldn't she be burned to death? She involuntarily swallowed a spit. Why don't you... go and have a look?
But what can she do if she is a powerless girl? Maybe I'll put myself in. He was still struggling, but his legs and feet had moved first and walked towards the gate of Qingyuan.
Yes, let's go and have a look. Not to mention that there are no ghosts, even if there are really any ghosts, the hot sun is in the sky, and the fire is still shining in the sky, and he dares not come out. If there is really someone in it, it will be a living life, and you can't ignore it. Go and have a look. If you can save people, you can save people. There is nothing you can do if you can't save people. You want to have a clear conscience!
Thinking that she had arrived at the door of Qingyuan, the fire burned from the east, and the gate was in the southwest direction and had not been affected. She stretched out her hand and pushed it, and the dark wooden door opened with a creak, and a thick smoke came to her face with a heat wave.
She fanned the smoke with her hand and looked around anxiously. This is a landscape-like place, with rockery trees intertwined, and thick smoke everywhere, blocking her sight and not seeing clearly.
"Is there anyone?" She didn't dare to walk in, so she shouted loudly.
"Save...Save...Life..."
As soon as she shouted, she got a response. Although she didn't hear it, she could be sure that there was really someone here.
"Where are you? Answer me when you hear it!" She took a few steps in and asked loudly as she slapped the smoke and dust to protect her eyes. With one mouth, the smoke took advantage of the smoke and got in. It made her throat hot and itchy, and she couldn't help coughing a few times.
"Help...help..." The cry for help became more and more real.
Haiman carefully identified the source of the sound, and it was in the place where the fire was strong in the east. In the face of human life, she couldn't care much about it. Looking at it, she still held a package in her arms, which contained clothes made for Qi Wenhao. There happened to be a pool next to it, so she soaked the clothes with water, put it on her head, and ran over.
Fortunately, there is water everywhere in this garden, which also plays a certain role in insulating fire. She endured the impact of the heat wave, crossed the side of the rockery, crossed two bridges, and saw a three-room house with a forest behind it, which was the place where the fire was most popular.
"Help, help..." The voice of a hoarse man came from the house, probably seeing Hyman, and the cry for help became more and more rapid.
Hyman took a closer look. There was a shallow ornamental pool on the side of the house, which could go over, pull his clothes to protect his mouth and nose, and ran over with water.
"Help... Help..." A figure reflected from the half-burned window, shaking hurriedly, trying to attract Hyman's attention.
The house has burned up, making a sound of explosion, which makes people's ears ache. The water in the pool also seemed to be about to boil, which made her feet hurt, and the water vapor seemed to steam her whole. The house was built very strangely and looked like an octagon. Hyman searched for a long time and couldn't find the door where it was. In this way, he couldn't rush in to save people.
What should I do? It's already here. Do you want to watch the people inside burn to death? She turned her mind anxiously and thought about ways to save people.
Suddenly, her foot touched a stone and looked down. There were many round and flat stones in the pool. She had an idea and shouted to the people inside, "Dodge the way!" With that, he bent down and picked up the stone and smashed the window. With a bang, the window lattice was smashed into a hole, which seemed feasible.
She picked up stones one after another and hit them, and a big hole quickly appeared in the window.
"Come on, jump out of there!" She shouted to the people inside. As soon as she shouted, she froze. The man moved, and she saw two iron cables tied to his wrist...
She is so stupid. Shouldn't she have thought of it? If he could move freely, he would have escaped long ago and didn't have to wait for her to save his life. But who the hell is he? Why are you tied to this octagonal room in Qingyuan?
What should I do now? She frowned anxiously. The people inside didn't know whether they had lost strength or despair, and stopped shouting. They shook their bodies and didn't know what they were doing.
"Can you take something?" Hyman suddenly asked inside.
The man seemed to hesitate for a moment and answered a word, "Can!"
Hyman quickly pulled off his robe, soaked it in the pool, wrapped a stone, aimed at the gap in the window and threw it in. "Put this on your body, and someone will save you soon..."
Before she finished her words, she felt that something hit her neck heavily, and her eyes were black, and she fell into the pool with a plop. In a daze, she heard someone shouting to be careful, two people flying around, and the sound of dinging weapons collided, and then she became unconscious.
