Fire burst into the sky, burning half of the sky red.
Mu Yunhan woke up from his sleep, put on his clothes and walked out of the farmhouse where he was staying, looking up at the sky.
Mu Li walked in: "It seems to be in the direction of Zhuangzi."
Although it is not really such a coincidence, this possibility cannot be ruled out.
If it were true, something happened to her back foot as soon as she walked on her front foot, which would probably lead to a lot of lawsuits.
Mu Yunhan called out to Old Man Gu: "Please go and investigate and see what's going on. Be careful and don't let anyone find out."
Old Man Gu took the order and left. Mu Yunhan was no longer sleepy. Seeing that it was almost dawn, he asked someone to prepare breakfast.
After breakfast, it was daybreak.
Old Man Gu rushed back: "It is true that something happened over there. The fire was lit in the middle of the night. Mr. Kang and the two young men on duty could not escape and died."
Zhuangzi was burned to ashes, and the people inside could not escape.
Because the door is locked from the inside at night, the keys belong to Uncle Kang and the two Gu family members who take turns.
They never came out, and the others couldn't open the gate. The courtyard wall was too high, so they could only be locked in the smoke and wait to die.
At the critical moment, someone opened the door and everyone escaped.
"The war over there is really chaotic at the moment." Old Man Gu said: "I saw that the situation was serious, so I came back quickly to report to you."
Mu Yunhan pondered for a moment, stood up and said, "Run back immediately."
This fire will never burn for no reason, and if it burns so hard, the death of Uncle Kang and others will not be an accident.
These people will die if they die, and she won't have any regrets.
But those priests and wives should not suffer anymore.
As the person closest to this place in the Gu family, she had to rush back to take charge of the overall situation, even if it would cause her to be smelly.
Everyone hurried back and when they arrived near Zhuangzi, they saw that the fire had been extinguished.
All the people in Zhuangzi were sitting on the floor in the elm forest, all in a miserable state.
Several people who looked like stewards sat together and discussed in low voices how to go back to Guhou Mansion to report this letter.
Old Man Gu coughed coldly: "Madam is here, why don't you come to see me?"
The stewards were frightened and frightened, so they came over to greet me and cried, "Madam, please give us justice and help us."
Mu Yunhan said warmly: "Since I'm here, I'm here to take care of you. Now let's not talk about how to start the fire and solve the problem at hand first."
"The first thing is, has there been a search and rescue operation? Is there anyone else inside?"
After receiving the reply that there was no one inside, Mu Yunhan asked again: "Where is the roster? Or has the head count been carried out? Who is missing, who is dead, and who is injured?"
A steward stepped forward and said: "I haven't grabbed the list, but I remember the heads and have counted them all. Including Mr. Kang, a total of eleven people died, more than thirty were injured, and they are missing..."
He hesitated, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, "The ladies are all gone."
"All gone?" Mu Yunhan felt incredible.
There are so many women who have been incarcerated and disabled. They may not be able to tell clearly the north, south, east, west, and west when they are released, but they disappear so easily.
The steward smiled bitterly: "They disappeared. I asked the people waiting around them, but no one could explain clearly. They all said they didn't know. It was a mess at the time."
So, this fire was definitely not an accident, but premeditated.
