When asked about the cause of the fire, Mr. Zhang also looked confused: "I don't know what happened. The two families suddenly caught fire. Not even one of them ran out. They must have been greedy at the end of the year and failed to put away the candles."
Song Liyun's heart skipped a beat, she didn't say anything to Old Man Zhang, she withdrew from the crowd, found a place where no one was paying attention and climbed over the courtyard wall.
At this time, the cotton curtains on the doors and windows of Xue Zhuang's house were already filled with flames, and only the crackling sound of dry wood could be heard.
There was deathly silence in the room. Song Liyun took out a piece of fire-fighting cotton and put it on his head, then rushed into the sea of fire.
Thick smoke billowed in the room, and the tables, chairs and benches were all on fire. I could vaguely see a person curled up and motionless on the kang, with a very petite figure.
Song Liyun felt a chill in her heart. Could it be that Xu Yaner was dead?
She hates this woman very much.
But when it comes to saying that, there are many deep hatreds and hatreds.
Especially after Xu Yaner was beaten by him in the street, she basically walked around when she saw him.
There was no one else in the room, and Xue Zhuang was not there.
Song Liyun stepped forward and touched it. He found that the person on the kang was unconscious but still breathing.
If she didn't save herself, Xu Yan'er would be burned to death or killed by the thick smoke.
Listening to the commotion outside, Song Liyun's heart moved.
She took out all the four corpses in the space and threw them into the corner of the room. Then she put some firewood on the corpses, and then she carried the people on the kang and ran out of the house.
The fire in the house became more and more fierce, and finally collapsed...
Another house also caught fire, but there were several people standing in the courtyard.
Xue Zhuang's face was hideous, covered in smoke and dust, his hair was burnt, and his clothes were completely burned by the fire.
At this time, he was being tied and fell to the ground, shouting angrily: "You gangsters, you have no conscience and will not die a good death."
He gritted his teeth with hatred.
Just now, when he was at home, Jin Sanzhong brought someone over. Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he knocked down Xu Yaner and even knocked Xu Yaner unconscious and set the house on fire.
Jin Sanzhong came over crookedly with a bloody arm, kicked Xue Zhuang, and said with a smile: "Don't you think you are a member of the guard, and show off your power every day? Now get up!"
Xue Zhuang's eyes were split open: "I'm going to kill you!"
The other two people came over with knives: "Jin Sanzhong, don't talk nonsense, we are going to pick up Tang Xiang and the others."
Ruijin Town is now poor. They ransacked several houses and only found a dozen taels of silver.
Fortunately, this is not the purpose of this trip. As long as Tang Xiang can get it, he can sell it at a good price by sending it to places with big houses.
Jin Sanzhong spat at Xue Zhuang again, and then turned to the other side: "What to do with these people? Since we can't take them away, let's kill them all!"
In the corner of the courtyard wall, there were five or six young and strong men, but their hands and feet were tied at this time, and their faces were full of fear and horror.
Some of them were yelling: "Jin Sanzhong, it was you who colluded with the bandits to lure the Di tribe. Now that the guard station is attacked, it is you, a bastard who has forgotten his ancestors and abandoned his family, who stabbed you in the back. Even if we go to hell, we will not let you go."
.”
Jin Sanzhong didn't object, he just walked up to him, lowered his voice and smiled sinisterly: "Master Huang, don't think that I don't know that you took advantage of others' danger to cuckold me. I'm just waiting for the opportunity to kill you."
When Huang Changsheng saw that what he had done was discovered, he was immediately horrified: "It's your wife who's very hungry, and I'm saving her."
"Save her? I won't let you save her even if she starves to death!" Jin Sanchong roared angrily, and without any hesitation, he plunged a short knife into Huang Changsheng's heart.
Huang Changsheng's eyes suddenly bulged, his body twisted in vain, and then he lay down softly.
Several men nearby were frightened. They didn't know why Jin Sanchong suddenly killed people. They kept yelling and swearing, but their bodies were shaking.
It is natural for people to fear death.
Although they wanted to pounce on the bandits in front of them and take a few bites, but now their hands and feet were tied and they saw people dying in front of them, they naturally felt timid.
Jin Sanzhong took the knife out of Huang Changsheng's body and looked at these people coldly: "You all look down on me..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard two thumps from Xue Zhuang's side, followed by two screams.
Jin Sanzhong went back suddenly and saw Laizi and the man Tang Xiang had brought lying on the ground.
They were knocked to the ground by two bowl-sized wooden stakes and were getting up in embarrassment.
Song Liyun climbed on the top of the wall, threw two pieces of firewood from a high position, and immediately jumped down the wall and landed next to Xue Zhuang.
He flicked the knife up and down in his hand, cutting the ropes tied together.
Xue Zhuang was in shock at this time.
Just when the two people were about to throw themselves into the fire, they were knocked over by a thick wooden stick that suddenly hit them.
Now when I saw Song Liyun cut the rope again, I was so happy that I felt like I was reborn in my mother's womb again.
This is not the time to talk.
Song Liyun had abandoned him and rushed forward, picked up the knife that fell off the ground, and asked in a deep voice: "Xue Zhuang, can you still use the knife?"
"able!"
Xue Zhuang turned over and took the knife.
Shame, anger, fear, fear and guilt made his blood boil, as well as his young daughter-in-law who had been killed in the fire...
No matter how ignorant that woman was, she still married her seriously.
With the broadsword in his hand, Xue Zhuang suddenly transformed into a mad dog, killing the panicked leper with three swords, and forcing the gangsters brought by Tang Xiang into the fire with five swords.
This sudden change made Jin Sanzhong unable to recover for a while. When he regained consciousness, a knife was already placed on his neck.
There was a voice pinching my throat: "There is a way to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no way to hell and you come here instead!"
Jin Sanzhong's head exploded with a buzz, his legs softened, and he fell to the ground with a plop.
This sentence was like a mantra, echoing in his ears all the time, making him restless every night.
As soon as those people in the corner of the courtyard were freed, they tore Jin Sanchong into several pieces alive.
It is only said that when Song Liyun returned the unconscious Xu Yaner who was thrown under the wall to Xue Zhuang, Xue Zhuang's eyes turned red and he knelt down on one knee: "Miss Song, from now on Xue will swear allegiance to the death and never betray. If you violate your oath, you will never betray me."
Death without a complete body!”
"good!"
Song Liyun answered casually.
It was just a coincidence that she went to Xue Zhuang's house to rescue Xu Yan'er. In fact, she just wanted to find Xue Zhuang and call for justice for the attack on her home and the injury of Hei Jin.
It would be easy to save Xue Zhuang now. Jin Sanzhong is the target she wants to eliminate, for the sake of that woman and herself.
Of course Xue Zhuang wanted to thank him, and he did not refuse.
Things in the town were basically safe. Song Liyun looked up at the guard station, but felt anxious.
It's been so long since the fire broke out in the town, why haven't we seen the sergeant coming?
If it is really the Di tribe that invades the country, what is the use of saving these people by yourself? It is better to take them and run away!
When Xue Zhuang saw his confession of allegiance, Song Liyun had no reaction, and his face suddenly burned with anger. This was because he didn't trust him.
He could only curse inwardly that he was confused before, or he could only show it slowly in the future.
"Xue Xiaoqi, what happened to the military camp?"
Song Liyun was about to go to the guard station to see the situation when he suddenly remembered that Xue Zhuang was from the military camp. At this time, he didn't panic at all. He must have known what was happening there.
Seeing Song Liyun asking himself, Xue Zhuang hurriedly said: "The guard station only blew the whistle to warn of the enemy. The fire over there was also a city defense bonfire for lighting... I guess it was just a drill."
