The collapse of the Kangxi Dynasty [Qing wear + Red House]

Jia Jiaojiao thought that now is a good time, but in fact, there is a wine shop next door!There are countless jars of wine in the wine shop!

If the liquor was directly leaked and burned, the effect might not be as good as a few cylinders of oil in the grocery store, but what if it was unopened?

The degree of sealing is not bad, but the sealed materials are not very reliable, the unexpected rapid spread of the fire, the continuous high temperature roasting...

Jia Jiaojiao had only taken a few steps to the street, when suddenly there was an explosion in the wine shop, one after another, if you listened to it from a distance, there might still be some festive excitement of firecrackers, but Jia Jiaojiao could only see In order to protect her, Lan Xiang's forehead was smashed into blood red by some fragments, and she gritted her teeth: "Go! Let our people leave quickly!"

hateful!

Actually forgot about this!

Gas tanks are not the only ones that can explode!

Not all ancient wines were low-alcohol wines, some were even as high as seventy-odd degrees, which could catch up with medical alcohol!

Fortunately, although this wine shop also sells some burning knives, the main product is a kind of local specialty fruit wine. The fire, accelerated house beams and other things collapsed and burned, but it can only be said that the house with civil structure is too unreliable.

So the sound sounds lively, but there are not many debris that actually burst into the street, but the high temperature is a bit uncomfortable.

The two guards didn't care about their scruples at this moment, they directly put Jia Jiaojiao and Lan Xiang on their backs, and ran wildly with their feet free.

Jia Jiaojiao could clearly hear wailing and screaming from somewhere in the collapsed house, but she couldn't care less for now.

Whether it is hypocrisy or selfishness, even if there is a fire shield, but fire protection does not protect against other physical attacks, Jia Jiaojiao will never think that she has golden fingers and pretend to be the savior of the world.

Jia Jiaojiao pursed her lips tightly, she only saw the wound on Lan Xiang's forehead, and she only cared about Baobao Jia Hu, well, at most the guards and maids who came with her.

The so-called closeness and estrangement are always manifested most nakedly at critical moments.

For example, the screams I heard with my own ears are far inferior to Jia Hu who doesn't know what happened.

For another example, Jia Huhong, ninety-one thousand people tied together, can't compare to a treasure.

Of course, Jia Jiaojiao would never have thought that there were dragon boats on the canal. On the dragon boats, it was easy to detect the excitement of the fire and the sound of explosions in this place.

After temporarily running out of the flame zone, Jia Jiaojiao finally came to her senses. She patted the guard who was still running wildly: "Okay, stop for a while."

She can't be a savior, but she won't just know how to flee further after she is safe: "Are Gege and the others all right?"

A few unnamed guards ran over from the other side:

"Well, brother Jiu sent someone to send a message. They have already caught up with the imperial boat. Gege has already boarded the ship with a few younger brothers. Brother Jiu was going to come back to meet you, but because the master summoned you, I had to let you go first." We're coming to meet you."

Jia Jiaojiao looked behind her, the wailing and screaming stopped for a while, and then started again. The fire spread too fast, maybe even this place would not be safe enough soon.

Pursing her lips, she started to walk out, not too slowly, but she didn't let the guards carry her on her back: "Where's Jia Hu? Are the other guards all right?"

A guard who seemed to be surnamed Fucha replied loudly:

"Guard Jia is fine, but half of his braid was scorched. The brothers are all fine, and there were no major casualties. Please leave first. The brothers will try their best to evacuate the people and help put out the fire."

He really didn't lie, whether it was inspired by the illusion that Jia Jiaojiao stayed behind to direct the rescue, or because Kangxi on the imperial boat was probably watching, the group of guards didn't leave in a hurry after making sure their masters were out of danger , but stayed to help fight the fire.

Jia Jiaojiao hadn't noticed before, but upon closer inspection, there were quite a few familiar faces among the people running around. Most of them couldn't call out their names, but they looked familiar enough. They mixed among the local residents, holding some buckets and basins. Ah yes, apparently fighting a fire.

But these pots and barrels, although they look not small——

The bearded man who fought with the guards for a horse was also there, and he was carrying a bathtub fiercely. Unfortunately, although the bathtub was large and filled with water, it was just a drop in the bucket compared to the fire. It came out, it was just...

Jia Jiaojiao suddenly misses the firetrucks of the 21st century.

Or a few long enough water pipes and a few water pumps will do. Guarding the canal, but it can't put out the fire.

The most terrible thing is that the houses in this town are very connected to each other. There is almost no gap between the houses on one street, and many of them share the same wall. The gaps between alleys and streets are not small, especially those that are obviously In order to facilitate the transportation of goods on the main street, two carriages are usually spaced apart, but the eaves tend to fly out, and the sparks and the oil flowing into the ditches are enough to choke the fire.

Jia Jiaojiao frowned and looked at it for a while, and finally remembered that the forest fire prevention has a thing called a fire belt, but when she said it, the guard smiled bitterly: "Where are the people to push the house now? Are they willing to let us demolish the house?" ?”

Convincing those chariot and horse dealers to deal with cattle and horses was enough work before, and the badge of imperial guards is quite useful in the capital, especially when adding the sentence "Master orders", but in this small town...

If it weren't for the imperial boat just a few miles away, and they happened to meet a businessman who was somewhat knowledgeable, it would not be so easy for them to kill a horse, let alone demolish a house?

Of course, it would be better if the disobedients could be killed on the spot. Those who can come out to guard, no matter how high or low they are, always have some hard work under their hands. Not to mention that on the battlefield, everyone is one against a hundred. It's hard to get close, and it's easy to deal with a group of ordinary people, but is it possible?

Killing someone to demolish a house?

Jia Jiaojiao frowned.

Lan Xiang advised her:

"This house is being demolished temporarily. Where should the beams and furniture be placed so that they won't catch fire? It's really not something we should worry about. Instead of thinking about it here, you might as well go back quickly and find a way to resettle it." These poor people—

The burnt ones need to be treated, the house is burnt out, not to mention whether life will be better in the future, at least for now, they should find a place to live, food, drink and clothing...

Ah, by the way, where is Brother Hu?It’s okay for everyone to help put out the fire, but don’t rush into the fire to save people in a moment of enthusiasm, just in case..."

Sure enough, Jia Jiaojiao was distracted:

"Yes, yes, although it is always good to save those who can be saved, but you must do what you can, and don't fill yourself in for outsiders!"

Lan Xiang sighed:

"I'm most afraid of thinking that I do what I can, but in the end I overestimate my own..."

Jia Jiaojiao stomped her feet twice, stretched her head and looked around for a while, but she didn't see Brother Hu, and her heart became more and more anxious.

The act of sacrificing oneself to save others sounds very positive, and Jia Jiaojiao has never been stingy in praising the virtues of the rescuer, but when it is possible that the child raised by herself is sacrificed, the rescued is only an outsider Even if the outsider might be a pregnant woman or an elderly person, Jia Jiaojiao still prefers that her children be more selfish.

Lan Xiang held her hand tightly and asked the guards:

"The way I see it, those older guards are fine, they always act more appropriately. Those young ones, who are likely to be impulsive, call here to help carry water outside, that is, gone?"

The youngest of the guards was naturally Jia Hu, and it was obvious what Lan Xiang was referring to.

But reincarnation is also a technical job. These guards can be arranged to guard Jia Jiaojiao and her party. Naturally, they are loyal, capable, winking and measured. Long before Lan Xiang said this, one of them went to find Jia Hu first. , as soon as she said this, the people even divided up half of them (although the half was only four people): "It should be like this."

Lan Xiang helped Jia Jiaojiao to go out again, but now, without Brother Hu, how can Jia Jiaojiao feel relieved?She never went inside to find anyone, it was because Lan Xiang held her tightly and the guards were cleverly positioned.

Lan Xiang also knew her master, and regretted that she hadn't brought Brother Hu with her earlier, so she had no choice but to slowly pull Jia Jiaojiao away without a trace, paying attention to her surroundings from time to time.

Perhaps it was because someone finally organized the firefighters——

Several teams lined up to pick up water from the well all the way to the place where the fire spread. The efficiency was faster than before when individuals were busy alone, and it was less laborious than running back and forth from the well to the fire by a single person.

Although there are only two public wells in this town, the fire is staggering, and those who have built their own wells have opened their doors to let people carry water. After this series of events, the fire has not been extinguished, but it can be regarded as contained.

The most important thing is that the wailing and screaming finally disappeared. Although there are still rescued wounded, they are no longer the kind of wailing that only comes from being roasted in the fire.

Jia Jiaojiao refused to think about the disappearance of the wailing sound. In addition to being rescued or dying, there is actually the possibility of being choked out and being rescued in time. She just asked the guards: "Are you sure everyone is okay? Just help fight by the well." water?"

After getting an affirmative answer, she finally stopped insisting:

"Let's go back then! Where can I buy medicine around here? There are also things to eat..."

Lan Xiang supported her:

"Don't worry, when you go back and ask, there will always be someone who will take care of it properly for you."

Jia Jiaojiao supported her with her backhand, and stared at her forehead, which was only casually tied with a handkerchief and cloth strips: "Don't worry, I won't let you have a scar."

The two supported each other and were about to get on the carriage when suddenly there was a sound of hoofbeats. Jia Jiaojiao felt irritable at this moment, and she couldn't help complaining: "Although there was no explosion, the fire was still burning. It's hard to ride so fast." Don't be afraid to startle the horse..."
