Chen Tiehu replied: "Miss Lin, don't worry, I have lived in this village since I was a child. If they want to kill me, it may not be that easy!"
"What do you mean?" Lin Jingmo looked at him doubtfully and asked, "Is there any other exit from this village?"
Chen Tiehu nodded, then sat next to Lin Jingmo and said: "There is a secret passage in the village that can lead to the mountain, but we have to wait for them to take action before we can slowly escape. Fortunately, they will take action at night. By then
It’s not easy to be discovered when we escape from a dark place.”
Lin Jingmo breathed a sigh of relief, but she was also worried about these people. What happened after they fled to the mountains? How could they survive without food and land?
Now he can take this opportunity to fake death and leave. As long as Qi Xuanyi thinks she is dead, then he can relax his vigilance and fulfill Lin Jingmo's future plans...
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a lot of noise outside. Lin Jingmo and Chen Tiehu walked out, mixed in the crowd and looked outside. It was Shang Shixu... He was standing at the door with the officers and soldiers of the government office.
I saw officers and soldiers outside starting to pour kerosene on the fence of the village...
Lin Jingmo looked at Shang Shixu in surprise. At this moment, his face was pale due to an abdominal injury, but his hair was still meticulous. He looked expressionlessly at the officers and soldiers pouring kerosene on the village, and there seemed to be no emotion in his dark eyes.<
/p>
Has he finally compromised? Is he going to burn down the village?
Lin Jingmo remembered what Shang Shixu had said to her last night. He had obviously been burned by fire before, so why did he choose this method today...
The officers and soldiers outside lit torches. Across the crowd, Lin Jingmo stood on tiptoe and tried his best to see Shang Shixu's face clearly by the light of the fire.
Suddenly, I was surprised to find a touch of sadness in Shang Shixu's eyes.
Although it was only for a moment, Lin Jingmo could be sure that Shang Shixu... was also painful.
Or if she steps forward now, Shang Shixu will save her, but Lin Jingmo still has to risk her life and leave Shang Shixu according to Chen Tiehu's method. She would rather others think she is dead. Only in this way can she continue to take revenge! p>
Shang Shixu lowered his eyes and waved his hand in the direction of the village. The officers and soldiers threw the torches in their hands in the direction of the village. Because of the kerosene, the fence outside the village was quickly ignited, and the people inside the village were trapped.
In a ring of fire, the heat and thick smoke hit the crowd.
Chen Tiehu took advantage of the thick smoke and hurriedly pulled Lin Jingmo and led the people towards the secret passage in his home. Originally, this secret passage was built by his family to facilitate the transportation of food, but now it has become a line of defense for all those trapped here.
Vitality.
The people around him got into the secret passage one by one and prepared to escape. Chen Tiehu also pushed Lin Jingmo to let her in. Lin Jingmo was about to jump off the secret passage, but found that the two grandsons who had given her cakes this morning were delayed.
No trace.
She hurriedly said: "Xiao Huzi, is everyone here?"
Chen Tiehu replied: "Maybe there are people outside! If you can save one person, who can guarantee that everyone can be saved?"
"No!" Lin Jingmo sat up and said, "I'll go outside to find them!"
Chen Tiehu quickly grabbed her and stopped talking.
Upon seeing this, Lin Jingmo threw away his hand and said, "Maybe they fell asleep somewhere. If we don't find them, they will die!"
Seeing her persistence, Chen Tiehu said helplessly: "Miss Lin, don't you understand? If all of us escape, and when the government comes in to check and find that there is not even a body, the secret passage will be found soon.
Find us!"
Only then did Lin Jingmo realize that they had deliberately left the old woman outside!
She was surprised and said: "So, you planned to let them die from the beginning?"
Chen Tiehu saw that the fire outside was gradually burning into the house. He pulled Lin Jingmo and was about to leave.
However, Lin Jingmo struggled and refused to leave. The houses in the village were old and would soon collapse. The wooden pillars on the beams fell down due to the fire, and hit Lin Jingmo and Chen Tiehu. Upon seeing this, Lin Jingmo pushed Chen Tiehu away, and the burning wooden pillars formed a barrier to block the two of them.
Lin Jingmo shouted loudly: "Go quickly!"
After saying that, he ran out of the house and looked at the village houses that were burning with fire. Lin Jingmo shouted: "Mother-in-law, where are you?"
The hard work paid off. Lin Jingmo shouted a few times and heard someone respond: "Help!"
Lin Jingmo looked for the sound, and sure enough, he saw her mother-in-law and her grandson trapped in a sea of flames in a burning village house.
Lin Jingmo wanted to go in and rescue them, but his way was blocked by pillars of collapsed fire.
Outside, Shang Shixu lowered his head and closed his eyes. This was the scene he least wanted to see, but he still chose to compromise for Lin Jingmo...
At this time, the two officers and soldiers beside him suddenly pointed at the village burning with fire and said with a smile: "There is such a fool, others are running outside the house, but she wants to go inside! Although everyone inside and outside the house must die, it's just
It’s so rare to be burned to ashes in such a rush!”
After listening to this, Shang Shixu suddenly opened his eyes. He remembered that night when he was a child. His mother had left and returned to save him...
He looked into the firelight and vaguely seemed to see Lin Jingmo. He took a few steps forward in surprise and opened his eyes incredulously. When he saw the person inside clearly, Shang Shixu suddenly went crazy.
As if shouting at the officers and soldiers: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, open the door for me!"
He casually took out the swords of the officers and soldiers outside the door, and then slashed at the burning fence several times, cutting a way out.
"Sir! Sir, you can't go in! The officers and soldiers on the side want to stop Shang Shixu.
However, Shang Shixu pushed them away, dropped his sword and ran deeper into the fire.
The officers and soldiers outside were panicked, but Qi Xuanyi, who was watching all this happening behind his back, smiled. He was very satisfied with everything. Not only did he kill all the scapegoats, but even the one who toyed with him and used him to kill Chen Minran.
Lin Jingmo was also eliminated.
He nodded, and the attendant in the car lowered the roller blind, then drove away in the car.
Shang Shixu re-entered the fire scene and ran towards Lin Jingmo. During this process, he was almost hit by falling fire pillars countless times. Finally, he braved the fire and came to Lin Jingmo's side with difficulty.
He took Lin Jingmo's hand and started to walk out. Lin Jingmo saw Shang Shixu. He was surprised and resisted and said: "No, you can't leave like this! There are people inside!"
Shang Shixu hugged Lin Jingmo and said, "No one, no one in this world is more important than you!"
