Aggrieved Fish Sprite

The fire ignited so fast that the bamboo forest in the courtyard burned up almost in the blink of an eye.

"Go!" Qiu Jing snapped.

There were also people who were reluctant to part with the valuables in the house, and were immediately thrown out by Qiu Jing angrily.

"Don't bring anything with you, don't wander around, there must be experts surrounding you outside!"

After being scolded, everyone seemed to wake up suddenly, and rushed towards the secret path.

The shopkeeper of Tangchi was completely panicked. He wanted to run with him, but Qiu Jing's attendants were still resisting the sharp arrows shot from outside the wall.

It was because of these people who bought time that most of the people with poor martial arts in Fengxing Pavilion were able to evacuate the courtyard smoothly.

Qiu Jing used his right foot to pick up the arrow that fell on the ground. The fire on the arrow was still burning, exuding a choking smell, and there was a weird stench faintly.

A layer of cotton cloth soaked in oil is tied to the arrowhead, which is not thick, otherwise it will affect the shooting range of the arrow, and it will not be able to hit the target because it is top-heavy.Rockets have always been just tools to start fires. Generally speaking, it is impossible to burn for such a long time. Since the Ganquan Pond is completely under the control of Fengxing Pavilion, it is impossible for people to sprinkle fuel on it. The problem should lie in the arrows.

"Fire Oil from the Western Regions!"

Qiu Jing's face changed drastically, and he slammed down the extinguished arrow, and ordered: "Don't retreat into the house, guard this wall!"

If the people from Piaoping Pavilion broke in and dumped the kerosene directly, and it was a dry season, all the houses in Ganquan Pool would be engulfed in flames, including the buildings above the secret passage.The collapse of the house will affect the ventilation in the secret passage. If the exit is blocked by someone, everyone will be trapped in the underground secret passage.

Qiu Jing didn't dare to bet that Piaoping Pavilion didn't know the exit of Tangchi Secret Road.

——Look at the bewildered look of the shopkeeper of Ganquantang. He has no idea of ​​the development of Piaoping Pavilion under his nose. It is not only negligent, but also short-sighted and arrogant.

Qiu Jing glanced at the shopkeeper who was sneaking towards the secret passage regardless of her order, she turned her head calmly, and let the other party go to a dead end.

"Hold on!"

Some people obeyed the order to stay, and more people ran away with the shopkeeper.

Qiu Jing didn't show any emotion on her face, she ordered her subordinates to find a suitable shelter, and at the same time rushed forward to repel the killer of Piaoping Pavilion who had jumped over the wall.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, and the smoke billowed.

Not only did Piao Ping Pavilion come very quickly, but there were many more, which exceeded Qiu Jing's expectations.

She was barely able to control the situation, but as the fire intensified, the shelter gradually became smaller, and even her loyal followers were suggesting to break out.

"There must be an ambush outside, and the subordinates will risk their lives to keep the pavilion master safe."

This was to sacrifice his life for Qiu Jing's safety, but Qiu Jing flatly refused.

"Except for you, even the people in charge of each sub-helm are nothing more than a little clever Jianghu people, just running errands according to the rules we set. Fengxing Pavilion gave them a chance, without Fengxing Pavilion, they are nothing. Wait It’s different, if so many masters are lost, Fengxing Pavilion will no longer be Fengxing Pavilion! Are there still few people with different ideas at the helm? Fengxing Pavilion will soon be torn apart, and it will have nothing to do with the gangs that used to sell information in the Jianghu. What a difference!"

At the critical juncture, a figure crossed the wall.

Thick smoke billows, and a glimpse of it.

I saw the sleeves of the robe fluttering, the sleeves of the clothes fluttering, passing the rain of arrows and the sea of ​​fire covered by it like a ghost.

The screams were endless, and in just a short moment, seven or eight men in black fell off the wall.

These people don't have to worry about being burned alive, because after the figure passed by, they were already corpses.

Qiu Jing gasped, and she saw that the neck and head of the nearest corpse showed a strange twisted arc that a living person would never have.

"That Master Meng..."

Qiu Jing's entourage also felt scalp tingling.

The rivers and lakes are killing people and killing people, and human life is not a matter.Feng Xing Pavilion has seen many ruthless people, and there are even inhuman murderers, but there is no one like Meng Qi who breaks other people's necks like a willow branch on the side of the road.

The tight and orderly Piaoping Pavilion outside the wall suddenly became chaotic.

With a flash of purple light, the Heartfelt Sword rolled up into the sky, and from a distance, it looked like a fire dragon hovering up, and then pierced its head against the courtyard wall.

"boom!"

The courtyard wall collapsed.

The fire site was divided into two parts by the collapsed masonry.

Qiu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly ordered everyone to use bricks, tiles and stones to separate a passage to avoid the fire.

Meng Qi put his toes on the eaves and jumped up, this time the sword pointed at the center of the courtyard.

The sword is mighty, like the sun in the sky.

——Because of the flames that rolled in before, the vertical and horizontal sword energy suddenly became tangible. Accompanied by splashing sparks, a vortex was formed directly at the center of the sword edge, and flames were constantly drawn in, and finally it seemed like The sun was setting in the courtyard, and the light was so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it.

The heat wave was rolling, and the people of Fengxing Pavilion barely moved closer by touching the ruins of the brick wall.

At this moment, there was a sudden coolness from behind, and someone turned his head to look, and there was another figure in the vision blurred by tears.

Mo Li stood next to the pond, holding the swordsman he had just rescued from the fire in one hand, and raised his palm with the other. The waves of water condensed into water balls, circling in mid-air.

"Whoa."

The water polo fell to the ground in an instant, extinguishing a small part of the flames, most of which were where the fire spread and ignited.

Whereas the place hit by the arrow at first was stimulated by the water, the flames shot up to a height of three feet.

"Be careful, this is kerosene from the Western Regions! It's even stronger when it meets water!" Qiu Jing quickly reminded.

Without waiting for everyone in Fengxing Pavilion to evade, the flame seemed to have been pulled by a huge force, and flowed backwards towards that round of "red sun".

Meng Qi snorted coldly, and exerted his internal force to squeeze the fire wheel condensed by the vortex of the blade.

I saw the "red sun" shining brightly, gradually turning from orange red to dark red, and then getting smaller and smaller.

Everyone was almost breathless, and they couldn't make a sound even when they opened their mouths.

"puff."

The red sun disappeared without a trace, and at the same time the terrifying coercion dissipated, everyone staggered and took a step back, and at the same time couldn't help but gasped for breath.

The fire was all out.

The ground is in a mess, and the remaining smoke is lingering.

Everyone was still a little confused, and didn't understand how Meng Qi's magic stroke solved the fire.

It's not like martial arts... Could it be Taoism?That's right, this is the national teacher of the Chu Dynasty. He looks like a young man in his 80s, so he must have strange skills.

Everyone in Fengxing Pavilion was inexplicably surprised, and the swordsman over there couldn't believe it.

"Cough cough."

Qiu Jing didn't think as much as her subordinates. She suppressed her cough and thanked, "Thanks to Master Meng and Doctor Mo, otherwise today would be unthinkable. The burning of Ganquan soup is a small matter, I'm afraid the houses and shops nearby will suffer."

When Mo Li heard this, his eyebrows relaxed slightly.

This is exactly what he was worried about. No matter what Qiu Jing really thought, this sentence was on the right track.

"The people in Piaoping Pavilion actually used kerosene from the Western Regions, and this arrow is definitely not an ordnance that people in the Jianghu can get!" Qiu Jing asked sharply, "Did you two find anything extra in the county?"

"You can't stay here for long."

Meng Qi glanced at the boiling street outside.

Just now, the fire was so intense that it had alarmed the night watchmen in the city.

"Go to the water!"

The watchman slammed the gongs and drums, and ran towards the direction of the fire while shouting.

The sleeping people in the room woke up one after another, and looked through the windows. Isn't the place where the fire started, Jixianfang, the busiest place with the densest shops and businesses in the city?

It's amazing.

The common people are okay, the rich households in the east of the city suddenly panicked, who doesn't have a shop in Jixianfang?It was a dry day, and the fire was so fierce that it might not be extinguished for a while.Immediately yelling at the servants, servants, and the guy carrying the bucket and water tank, he ran to Jixianfang in a hurry.

This is also the scene Mo Li and Meng Qi saw when they heard the news and came from the Sun's warehouse.

Once the fire spreads, not only all the shops on this street will be affected, but also the people who are busy fighting the fire will be even more dangerous.

The most troublesome thing is that the people in Piaoping Pavilion are hiding in the dark.Although it was to block Qiu Jing and her men, Piao Ping Pavilion would definitely not care about the lives of the people when the killing was red-hot, and they would even kill people who broke in unintentionally in order to ensure the smooth progress of the ambush.

The watchman who arrived first was almost shot to death by an arrow.

The Western Region kerosene on the cotton cloth of the arrowhead and the standard arrowhead made the two of them immediately realize that Piaopingge, a killer organization that has always been low-key, really wants to take money for their lives.The killer organization is a cover, a tool to make money, and the people behind the scenes have bigger plans. Even the swordsmen may not know the existence of the Sun family firm.

The operation of the Fengxing Pavilion sub-helm here has been a complete failure. The news of the capture of the swordsmen and killers has spread to the ears of the Sun family business, so they can mobilize their staff so quickly to plan this fire attack plan. .

Western region kerosene is black and smelly, and it is difficult to transport.

If Mo Li and Meng Qi didn't come in time, if Meng Qi didn't act decisively to kill all the ambush people he could see, and Mo Li snatched the Western Region fire oil they wanted to splash on the street outside, the consequences would be disastrous.

When the fire becomes full, no one from Fengxing Pavilion will be able to come out.

Mo Li recalled the tragic scene of the fire burning the city after the earthquake in Qiuling County, Pingzhou, and his heart was filled with anger.

"These people's martial arts are very strange, not like the common ways in the Jianghu." Meng Qi heard more and more voices outside, frowned and said, "I will talk about the rest later, the current situation is not good for us."

Qiu Jing didn't ask any more questions, and directly took people with him, beckoning Meng Qi Moli to the exit of Ganquantang on another street.

During this period, one of Qiu Jing's attendants quietly left the team.

Qiu Jing didn't seem to see it, and Mo Li looked in that direction keenly. He thought that this person from Fengxing Pavilion wanted to get some important things, so he didn't stop him.

After they withdrew, they walked left and right in the dark and deserted alley for two quarters of an hour. After the follower caught up, the ink carp smelled the faint smell of blood on the other party's body.

"Pavilion Master, it's not good. Someone killed shopkeeper Jiang and all the guys from Tangchi near the secret road, and threw many bows and arrows beside their corpses."

Qiu Jing frowned.

Her entourage was actually going to kill the shopkeeper Tangchi.

That man failed to accomplish anything, and fled before the battle.If caught by Piaoping Pavilion, Fengxing Pavilion must be betrayed. At such a critical juncture, Qiu Jing would naturally not have the slightest sympathy.

Unexpectedly, the opponent's action was still a step faster.

"Treasurer Jiang is timid and afraid of death. How did his body lie on the ground? Where is the fatality?"

"Reporting to Pavilion Master, the wound is in the back of my heart. It is very likely that...the person who ran away with Shopkeeper Jiang is the person who is at the helm of Fengxing Pavilion."

The entourage gritted his teeth, and admitted in front of the two outsiders, Meng Qi and Mo Li, that there might be Piaoping Pavilion undercover in Ganquanchi.

Just at this time, the buddy Ganquantang who went out to search for clues with the two of them (due to poor martial arts, he couldn't rush to help, so he could only squat and wait in front of another mansion in Fengxing Pavilion in the city) saw everyone coming Yes, and quickly greeted him.

"Pavilion master... Hey, where's the shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper looked through the crowd one by one, and found that not only the shopkeeper of Tangchi was missing, but even the shopkeepers who were close to the shopkeeper on weekdays or who were trusted by the shopkeeper were not among them.

Qiu Jing said with a grim expression, "We can't stay in this house, we have to find another place."

While speaking, torches were lit all over the city, accompanied by the neighing of horses and the sound of gongs and drums.

"Catch the chaotic party!"

"The people returned to their homes, closed their doors, and the city has entered a rebellious party!"

***

Two quarters of an hour ago, the magistrate was woken up from his sleep and learned that Jixianfang was on fire.He was angry and anxious, and he was about to go out to check the situation while pulling on his shoes.

"Yizai can't do it, the fire is so intense that half of the sky is red."

Before the county magistrate had time to get angry, another officer ran over panting to report: "Yizai, it's not good! Bandits and gangsters appeared in Jixianfang, and they started the fire."

"What?" The magistrate of Run County turned pale with shock.

A fire and a rebellious party are two different things. If the county is captured by bandits taking advantage of the chaos, even if the county magistrate can escape in the chaos, the magistrate has the responsibility of guarding the land. This is a matter of life and wealth!

"Where did the rebellion come from? What attire?"

The county magistrate was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat, and sent people to gather the soldiers in the city with a series of voices.

"You see the truth, are you sure it's a rebellious party?"

"No more. The watchman was almost killed by an arrow. If you don't believe it, the arrow is still on the wall."

After all, the county magistrate didn't dare to put himself in danger, so he urgently ordered the yamen servant to bring the people from Jixianfang over for questioning.

Just as he was talking, there was a loud bang on the east side of the city, as if something had collapsed.

Immediately afterwards, the fire suddenly disappeared.

The county magistrate anxiously circled around with his hands behind his back.

"Yizai, something is wrong!"

A dozen disheveled and disheveled people entered the inner hall, knelt down and cried loudly.

The county magistrate hurriedly said: "Everyone, hurry up and get rid of the ceremony, the fire has been extinguished, what is the situation now?"

"The fire started at Ganquan Tang. There are two shopkeepers in my family. One has been killed by the rebellious party, and the other has recovered his life by hiding under a rice bag. Everyone is frightened and dumbfounded. Shout out to the gangsters."

"What kind of dress is a rebellious party?" The county magistrate asked quickly.

A middle-aged man in a ginger-colored robe with mottled temples said bitterly: "My man also saw it, and said he was wearing ordinary people's attire, and the city gate was in good condition. It doesn't look like someone came to attack the county seat in the middle of the night." .Yizai, I'm afraid this is a rebellious party lurking in the city early in the morning!"

"Sun Yuanwai is right!"

"But it's strange to say that those rebellious parties seem to be aiming at Ganquantang."

After everyone agreed, the middle-aged man said again: "It's just that Mr. Sun didn't understand something. Those rebels didn't rob the shop, and didn't show disrespect to the magistrate to come to the county government office. Why did they go after Ganquantang's family?"

The author has something to say: Yizai and Lingjun are both respectful titles for the county magistrate, the latter is more [ceremony] and more official, and the former is more verbal.

Yi means city, and Zai means no need to explain. Adding up the people in charge of this place, the meaning is closer to "parent officer" or "adult" when they shout.
