Langya's dream

Chapter 150 Five [Innocent Sacrifice]

I raised my hand and waved the dust, the baby in my arms kept crying, no matter what I tried to coax it, it didn't work, the girl in my arms seemed a little frightened, and sat on the ground in a daze, without saying a word.

The time in the ruins was extremely long, but the flame did not slow down in the slightest, and burned over quickly. Surrounding the tip of my nose was a burst of choking smoke.

I saw that the girl was coughing too, so I couldn't help wrapping her in my cloak. The baby in my arms gradually stopped crying, and her little cheeks were already flushed. I don't know if it was because of the smoke or because I was crying too hard. ;I slowly let the child down, but I am really bored.

He escaped the explosion in Tianjin Port, but he did not escape the explosion in the private cannon house; if he was not killed by the beam, he would be smoked to death.

(Jinling City, Su Residence)

"The private cannon house exploded?"

Although Mei Changsu had some doubts, but after all, it was the result of Li Gang's investigation, which still made him a little dumbfounded.

Seeing his astonishment, Li Gang couldn't help but nodded and explained: "Yes, it is said that it was caused by the avalanche of sparks in dry weather without snow recently; the private cannon house was razed to the ground when it exploded, and the nearby affected houses were about There were more than 90 households, all of which were destroyed by the fire, and a whole street was burned."

"How about casualties?"

"Dozens of people have died in the private cannon house alone. Adding in the people involved nearby, there are at least a hundred people, and there are more than a hundred people who were slightly injured. It is estimated that after the investigation, the number will increase. "Fortunately, there is no wind today, and the fire did not reach the next street, and it has been extinguished."

Mei Changsu thought about it, nodded his head slightly, and said softly with a bit of admiration, "It still burned the whole street."

Mei Changsu kept rubbing his fingers, thinking quickly in his mind.

Li Gang shook his head helplessly, and said with a sigh: "Yes, the fire at that time could not be controlled at all. The Jingzhao Yamen who arrived at the earliest had only a few people. Can't live."

"Is there a riot?"

"It is true that some treacherous people took the opportunity to start looting, and the people from the patrol battalion couldn't suppress it for a while. Fortunately, King Jing led his own soldiers to arrive at last, and the situation was stabilized." Li Gang said, and moved Jingyan revealed that he had spent some military supplies and medical personnel.

Hearing what Li Gang said, Mei Changsu calmed down a little. With Jingyan around, the situation is really easy to control.

"By the way, where did Xiao Jin go?" Mei Changsu suddenly thought of something, and asked Li Gang.

Li Gang thought for a moment, and replied in a unclear way: "Missy has been busy recently, but we don't know what she is busy with; today she left the house before we went out, and now I really don't know where she is going." Where is it? Suzerain, are you afraid that the eldest lady is at the private cannon house? This...it should be impossible, the vicinity of the private cannon house is full of private households, even if there are one or two merchants, they are not very big, sir Miss should not go there."

Mei Changsu thought for a while, and felt that something was wrong. He turned around and picked up the cloak and said to Li Gang, "You should send someone to the city to look for her, and then follow me to the private gun house."

Li Gang replied yes, and retreated first.

Mei Changsu fastened his cloak and looked outside; the originally clear sky suddenly became clouded with clouds, not knowing whether it was smoke or ghosts.

(Jinling City, Aunt Zhen's home)

I don't know how long it has passed, the girl has passed out leaning on me, and the baby in my arms is still awake under the condition of my constant breathing.

Seeing this, I put my hand on my back and touched it.

"I forgot, the heart protection pill was taken away last night." I laughed at myself lightly, and took my hand back.

The sound of footsteps and noises outside gradually increased, thinking that perhaps rescuers had arrived, and hurriedly slapped the surroundings, hoping that people outside could hear the sound; There is so much wood, it is almost inaudible to spread this little sound.

Due to the constant beating, blood oozed from the palm of my hand, and I felt pain, so I turned over my palm and took a look, there was no way to go on like this.

I squeezed my palm slightly, and somehow put it on my chest. My fingertips inadvertently brushed the pigeon whistle on my neck, igniting a glimmer of hope in me.

"Yes, and the whistle, how could I have forgotten."

I said to myself, picked up the pigeon whistle, and blew it vigorously, one after another, and kept blowing.

"If His Highness reports this matter to the Ministry of War, even though things are done properly, His Highness's good deeds will be buried in vain."

Mei Changsu analyzed Jingyan calmly.Although the current situation is not what he wants, he also knows his purpose of going to Beijing.

Jingyan just sneered, and said disdainfully, "I didn't do these things for others to see."

"If you think about it for others to see before doing something, it is a matter of His Highness's virtue, but if you do something good but no one knows it, then Su, a counselor, is useless."

As soon as Mei Changsu finished speaking, Li Gang ran over, calling out to the suzerain with a little anxiety.

"Your Highness is here, don't lose your temper." Mei Changsu reminded.

Li Gang is rarely in such a hurry, Mei Changsu is certain that there must be something important, but on such an occasion, no matter what the important thing is, Jingyan cannot let Jingyan listen to it first.

Li Gang settled down and bowed to Jingyan, whispering next to Mei Changsu's ear, "Miss Qing'er was not found in the city, but I just saw Miss Qing'er's carrier pigeon fly to the ruins not far away. After a while, a few more pigeons flew away, and the subordinates felt that something was wrong, and I was afraid that Miss Qing'er..."

Mei Changsu looked at Li Gang in a blink of an eye, startled in his heart, and asked in a low voice, "Did you look carefully?"

"My subordinates will never admit it wrong. Miss Qing'er hung an orchid of the valley around the neck of her pigeon before."

Mei Changsu nodded, raised his hand to Jingyan, and left in a hurry.

Not far away, Nihuang saw Mei Changsu's hurried footsteps, and worriedly followed.

"It's here."

Li Gang brought Mei Changsu and Nihuang to the ruins, where a few white pigeons stood on the messy bricks and tiles.

Nihuang looked around and saw that there were some collapsed houses. Although the fire did not reach here, it was only two or three houses away.

Nihuang looked away, and asked Li Gang: "It's pretty good, why did she come here?"

Li Gang hesitated for a long time, because he really couldn't say why.

Mei Changsu didn't care what the two said, stepped forward and removed some of the crushed bricks, and started digging in with his bare hands.

"Sovereign!" Li Gang couldn't help being surprised when he saw Mei Changsu's actions from the corner of his eye.

When Nihuang heard the voice, she turned her head to look, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Mei Changsu's hand, "Mister is not in good health, how can I do it myself, I'll find someone right away." After saying that, Nihuang turned and ran away up.

While bending over to lift up the wooden pillar, Li Gang said to Mei Changsu worriedly: "Sect Master, leave it to your subordinates, your body is in good condition."

"She must have nothing to do. I already owe Langya Pavilion a lot." Mei Changsu said softly, rolled up his sleeves, and continued digging.

After a stick of incense, Nihuang brought Mu Qing and some people from Prince Mu's Mansion over, followed by Jingyan and Prince Jing's people.

Nihuang stepped forward and pulled Mei Changsu aside, looking carefully at his hands.

After Jingyan ordered his soldiers to dig together, he walked up to Mei Changsu, looked at the ruins, and sighed softly, "Before the fire reaches this side, your sister should be fine, sir, you should wipe your hands." Bar."

Mei Changsu just thanked him, but didn't really wipe his hands.

And I was underneath, the air circulation is not smooth, and the air that can only come in from above is full of thick smoke, and now I don't even have the strength to breathe smoothly for the child.

In a daze, I heard many people moving things away little by little, but if they moved a little, some of the dust below would fall.

My body coughed in response, and I vaguely saw a glimmer of light.

"Sovereign, Miss Qing'er has been found." Li Gang shouted loudly, and Mei Changsu and others hurried forward.

I don't know who pulled me out, and I don't know who picked up the baby in my arms, but I still saw Jingyan even though my vision was blurred; he stood in front of me with a heroic figure, as if it was 13 years ago , The scene where he stood in front of me when he went to the East China Sea, with the armor attached to his body, and the sword turned sideways, but compared with 12 years ago, there was a little more dust and wind, and there was a sense of fortitude in his brows and eyes.

For a moment, my heart was shaken again.

I staggered a few steps in front of him, and before I could say Jingyan, I fainted to one side.

And the one who supported me and hugged me was not him, but Mu Qing.
