The remaining members of the envoy group became anxious now and ran forward in a hurry.
This is really in line with that sentence, I can't sit still until my butt is burning.
"Everyone, run away!"
The crowd ran wildly in panic, and no one dared to look back.
The constant sound of exploding trees behind him and the burning sound of blazing flames were enough to make everyone's liver and gallbladder burst.
"Look! Ahead! There's fire ahead too!"
I don't know who shouted.
Only then did everyone realize that the woods ahead were also shrouded in flames.
"Is it possible that we are going to die here?"
An old minister's face was as white as a sheet of paper, but his heart was as gray as ashes.
The rest of the group was also in a similar situation, and the entire envoy group fell into an atmosphere of despair at this moment.
Some even cried bitterly.
"Alas! If I had known this, I should have listened to Muchuan!"
Some people are deeply regretful.
"What's the use of talking about this now?"
One person shook his head and sighed: "We are all old, and we will die when we die. But if we cannot take this letter back, we will definitely miss your majesty's important event."
"Alas! The sky cannot open its eyes!"
While everyone was standing there crying and making noise, no one noticed that a small figure jumped to a nearby tree.
Mu Yingchen swept away everyone and couldn't help feeling a little unhappy.
She really couldn't understand why the master wanted her to come back to save these people.
Obviously these people are always targeting the master, it would be best if they all died!
Although he thought this in his heart, Mu Yingchen still had to carry out Muchuan's order.
"Cry, cry, cry, can crying put out the fire?"
Mu Yingchen's voice made everyone stunned for a moment.
When they saw Mu Yingchen standing on the branch, everyone felt a sense of hope in their hearts.
They knew that Mu Yingchen was Muchuan's sister. Since Mu Yingchen was here, it meant that Muchuan was probably nearby.
"If you don't want to die, just come with me."
Putting these words aside, Mu Yingchen didn't waste any time and started to move quickly among the branches.
How dare everyone dare to neglect, this is their only life-saving straw, so they have to use all their energy to keep up.
Even the older ones are running as fast as athletes.
Under the threat of death, all human body limits are broken.
After running for a while, a lake appeared in front of everyone.
Although the size of this lake is not too big, it is still enough for everyone to avoid the fire.
"My lords, you are finally here."
Muchuan walked forward with a smile and said, "Mu thought you all would be yourselves in the fire."
Although they didn't quite understand what Muchuan said, especially the phrase 'Be yourself in the fire'.
But they listened carefully to the sarcasm in his words.
Normally, they would have had a good argument with Muchuan, but now, they could only lower their heads in despair.
If it hadn't been for Muchuan, they would have been burned to ashes by the fire. Now if they were ridiculed, they would just be ridiculed.
These people now look quite miserable. Almost everyone's face has been blackened by smoke, their hair and beards are about to be scorched by the high temperature, and there is even green smoke now.
Seeing this, Muchuan also felt bad in his heart.
After this incident, Muchuan knew very well that his voice in the envoy group should be greatly increased in the future.
If others don't listen to you, the end result will be like this burned-out forest.
Seeing that the fire was about to spread, Muchuan did not dare to delay and quickly ordered everyone to go into the water to avoid the fire.
Muchuan and his party were not idle just now. They cut down all the trees in a circle near the lake and made a simple raft.
The number of rafts is naturally limited and can only accommodate thirty-four people at most.
Muchuan asked those who were weak, sick, old and frail to sit on it, while the rest were soaked in water.
The ministers of the envoy were extremely grateful for Muchuan's actions. After all, they were already old. If they were soaked in water in this weather, they might not be able to come up.
Mr. Mu is really an extremely good person. I try to exclude him everywhere, but he ignores the past grudges.
Unknowingly, Muchuan already had a very high reputation among the envoys.
The fire quickly spread, and thanks to the protection of the lake, everyone avoided being barbecued.
"Oh! This one feels like soaking in a hot spring."
Feeling the cold lake water heating up rapidly, Muchuan couldn't help but sigh.
The temperature was still rising, and Muchuan also changed from being comfortable at the beginning to being nervous.
If the lake water were boiled, everyone would become dumplings.
Fortunately, the water temperature finally stopped when it reached nearly fifty degrees, and Muchuan also let out a long sigh of relief.
I have to say that the water temperature is really the same as a hot spring now.
It also relieved all the coldness in everyone's bodies in one breath.
Since the forest was still extremely warm, no one dared to come out immediately, so they soaked in the water first.
At this time, a minister swam towards Muchuan, his face still filled with shame, but he still asked.
"Master Mu, do you know how this fire started?"
As soon as this statement came out, it attracted everyone's attention.
You know, it was Muchuan who said there was a fire in the first place.
They were also curious about how Muchuan learned about the fire so early.
Or.
Some people even made a bold guess that Muchuan might have started the fire.
Hearing this, Muchuan glanced at everyone's weird expressions and couldn't help laughing.
"Everyone, do you think it was me who set this fire?"
No one answered.
Just from the expressions on some people's faces, it is enough to see that they do think so.
Muchuan shook his head and laughed out loud: "It's extremely interesting. What's the benefit of setting this fire to me? Could it be that by burning everyone to death, I, Muchuan, can be promoted and make a fortune?"
"Hmph, Master Mu has seen things thoroughly."
At this time, an inappropriate voice sounded.
Muchuan couldn't help but frown, his eyes locked on the speaker like thunder.
This man didn't expect Muchuan to be able to pinpoint his position among thousands of people, and he obviously looked a little panicked.
Before Muchuan could speak, Xue Rengui swam over and pulled the man out directly.
"The evil words are misleading the public, and they must be killed according to the law!" Muchuan said in a cold voice.
Until the man's head fell to the ground, there was still an incredible expression on his face.
He never imagined that Muchuan would dare to let his men kill him.
