The shop in front of her was gradually engulfed by the fire, like the two Wushi medical halls that happened in front of her at night, the fire was like a spiritual snake, and it kept opening its red mouth and swallowing the black and gray wooden beam skeleton of the shop into its stomach little by little.There was a lot of noise outside the door of the medical hall, and the old sister-in-law who came with Yuan Qiao sat paralyzed on the ground, crying out and begging the onlookers to save her eldest girl.Li Haitang stood not far away, not only could hear the cry of the old grandmother, but also heard the sound of the collapse of the wooden beams of the roof frame after the fire burned.The sound was like a recreation of the two fires of last night, and even the sound of the gong that reminded people overlapped with the loud sound in the memory."
Tell me why this Wu clan patriarch burned the Yuan family's shop to vent his anger?"
Meng Zhi muttered in his mouth, peeking at the silent little girl beside him.After he escaped from the Porcelain Source Hall just now, he saw a lewd man who had been mixed with the people of the Wu clan sneakily leading a group of village ruffians to the dark alley next to this shop.He has been walking the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and he knows best that the ruffians in the village are the most difficult and greedy.For the sake of money and women, he does all kinds of evil things, idleness all day long, stealing chickens and dogs, bullying men and women, and making the people avoid fear for the evil side.Originally, he wanted to secretly solve the group of ruffians, but he heard the lewd man say something "The Wu patriarch used the hand of Feng Xiannu to destroy the Yuan clan who opposed him, and made the Yuan clan hate Feng Xiannu even more", and the ruffians even echoed to put Feng Xiannu and the Yuan clan to death to vent their hatred for the Wu patriarch.Meng Zhi's pretending to ask unintentionally caused Li Haitang to suddenly realize why Zhuge Yi was not in a hurry to investigate the mastermind behind the burning of the Yuan Clan's Medical Hall.Yesterday, the old doctors of the Eight Great Clan Medical Centers were afraid of the coercion of the Wu Patriarch and his wife, and they did not dare to come to the Xuan Pavilion to treat the injured Yang Yanchang and others, so she was so angry that she had to ask Wu Yinling to invite the old doctor of the Yuan Clan Medical Center.The Wu patriarch was angry that the old doctor of the Yuan Clan Medical Center ignored the warnings and treated him without authorization, and the Ping Yen Clan Medical Center often kindly sent medicine to the poor people to attract people's hearts, and the business of the Wu Clan Medical Center became bleak day by day, and it relied on the care of the people of the same clan and the powerful men who were good friends with the Wu clan chief to stand tall.It can be seen that the Wu clan and the Yuan clan have long been grudges over the business of the medical hall, but the Wu patriarch has not been able to find a good excuse.The old doctor of the Yuan Clan Medical Hall personally went to the Xian Pavilion to treat the injured and gave the Wu patriarch a good opportunity to murder, and accumulated the hatred for Li Haitang and the Yuan clan together, and it was a good way to repay the other with his skills.The fire burned down two Wu's medical halls, how could the Yuan's medical hall live alone?
Li Haitang sneered gloomily: "I see."
I said that how could a shop that couldn't be hit by eight poles become a thorn in his eye, it turns out that there is still this relationship. ”I figured it out, and no longer dwelled on whose fault and whose fault it was.Li Haitang was worried about Yuan Qiao, and wondered if her shop was safe and sound."
Master, I'll lead people to put out the fire.You are here to take care of it, and if someone from the Wu clan comes to make trouble, don't let them get close. ”Li Haitang told Zhuge Yi, and rushed to the direction of the door of the shop with his skirt.What do you say to lead people to extinguish fires, where are people?
She's the only one.Not even a ghost......
Well, there are really ghost shadows, just ghost shadows pretended to be in black."
You?"
Meng Zhi shouted that it was too late to stop him, and watched as the petite little girl rushed into the smoke-filled shop door under the protection of a dozen masked black-clad men.He swallowed his saliva, his voice weakened a lot, but he still cried out: "Hey, you can't go in." ”"Gone."
Zhuge Yi had no intention of looking any further.Haitang could think that the Wu patriarch would send someone to make trouble, how could he not prepare.The second monk of Meng Zhizhang couldn't touch his head, and followed behind Zhuge Yi in a low voice.Suddenly found that it was not a wise move for him to come to Ciyu Town to find a ghost hand and be ruthless, why did he have the illusion of falling into a trap.The fire at the Yuan's Medical Center blackened half of the sky, and a thick layer of black smoke wafted under the clear blue sky, and people looked up at the sun as if they were covered with a black veil in front of them.The shop that was engulfed by the fire was no longer its original appearance, and the medicine cabinet in the lobby on the first floor was burned into charcoal cabinets, and even the abacus beads on the counter were scorched into charcoal beads.The old elm staircase leading to the second floor has been burned to the ground, and a few uncharred wooden ladder boards are still burning with flames, which continue to spread to the higher wooden ladders.A black-clad guard carried Begonia up to the second floor, where a private room was divided for noble patients.The scene of the burning of the private room is even more terrible, the furniture and decorations in the house are not intact, and some traces on the low cabinet should be left by the decorations, and the decorations have long been gone."
Little master, there is a sound on the third floor."
A masked black-clad guard who has returned from a search.Li Haitang immediately ordered to go up to the third floor to have a look.The people who went to the backyard to investigate have not returned, and Yuan Qiao is in the backyard if he is not on the third floor.The third floor was the top floor, and the fire came in through the window, crawling to all corners like a centipede with countless clawed legs.The third floor was originally used as a place to store precious medicinal herbs and common prescriptions.Dozens of tall cabinets with roof beams had been cut beyond recognition, and the top three rows of large drawers had been pulled out and placed on the floor in a haphazard manner, and the medicinal herbs and prescriptions inside had been looted."
Save ......
Save......
Younger sister......
Sister......"
A faint voice came from the gap between the two large cabinets that had fallen down, and the guard, who had a keen hearing, immediately rushed over, and saw through the light of the fire that a seriously injured and weak young man was kneeling in the most humiliating position in the narrow gap.He gasped for breath, squinting his eyes at the swaying figure outside the gap, his throat scorched by the heat only making a hoarse and faint sound."
Who is it?"
Li Haitang anxiously asked the guard, and when the guard squinted his eyes and saw clearly, he turned back and said: "The subordinates don't really see it, but listening to the voice, it should be the eldest son of the patriarch." ”"Yuan Dagong?""
Exactly."
Hearing that it was Yuan Kai, Li Haitang was anxious, and hurriedly beckoned the guards in the house to work together to remove the high cabinet and rescue Yuan Kai."
Quick!
Get out of here.The fire will soon consume this place, so let's get out of here quickly. ”"Yes."
A guard took the begonia away so that she wouldn't be hit when she opened the cabinet.The remaining six guards, five of them worked together to move the cabinet, and one pulled the weak Yuan Kai out of the gradually widening gap.Yuan Kai, who was desperate, finally supported the person who came to save him, he thought that the person who came was sent by his father or uncle, but he didn't expect that the first to come was his sister Yuan Qiao, and now Li Haitang.As the saying goes: it's easy to put the icing on the cake, but it's hard to send carbon in the snow.When people are in danger, they always hope that their closest people or close friends will come to their rescue, and sometimes they have the greatest hope, and in the end they are disappointed the most.Yuan Kai is an outstanding person among the young generation of the major clans in Ciyu Town, with his family background and his own elegant cultivation and many children of the family have become close friends, and he is also known as the "Four Young Masters" with Li Junshen, Chu Jin, and Cheng Lan.Now, none of the "close friends" who are around him on weekdays come to save him, but the little girl that his sister is most unaccustomed to leads the guards to save people at risk of fire."
Thank you Miss Begonia for coming to the rescue, and please save my sister, she was taken captive."
Yuan Kai grabbed Li Haitang's small hand and begged eagerly.Li Haitang patted the back of his bloody hand soothingly, "Don't worry, I know who kidnapped her."
I promise to bring her back. ”Yuan Kai was stunned and said angrily: "You know?
Who is it?
Who burned down my shop and kidnapped my sister?
”Li Haitang pursed her lips tightly, and a pair of big eyes stared coldly at the excited teenager.() Glory to the end
