Chapter 727 On Fire
Lingxiu hurriedly looked out through the gap between the boards on the farthest side, and could only see the sleeves of a fat man in a Chinese dress, and thick smoke rising from the bottom, which spread in after a while.

"what happened……"

"on fire!"

A man outside suddenly yelled, and immediately the crowd outside began to flee.

Each of them will pass the staircase, opposite the staircase is the attic, but no one cares about them.

"And us, let us out!!" Lingxiu slammed on the door panel vigorously, trying to get those people to stop and let them out.

But... no one.

...as if they were invisible and had disappeared from this world.

No matter how loud the noise is, it's the same right in front of their eyes.

Thick smoke gradually filled the entire small attic, and the fear of death also filled the air. The trapped girls slammed their bodies against the door and grabbed the wall frantically, trying to find a way to escape. Clashing and crying, crying and shouting frantically:

"And us! Who will save us, who will save us!!!"

Besides the rapidly spreading flames outside, there is nothing else...

……

……

Shi Yuchou was standing downstairs in his house, looking at the flames burning out from the gate with satisfaction.

He was the one who lit the fire, and he did not forget to light the stairs to the second floor when he went downstairs last, so that those women, including the daughter of Bu Liugu's family, would turn into charred corpses for no apparent reason .

The scorched corpse that had been burnt to black charcoal could not be identified in any way, and she died with the seven or eight newly bought women. No one can prove that there is a daughter of Buliugu's family there.

He'd never seen it, and didn't know about it, had he?
... That's great, a big fire, burns cleanly, leaving no troubles behind.

It was already dark, and under the dark blue sky, fire and smoke were filling the air.

The wooden buildings burned very quickly, and even the people on the surrounding streets became nervous, fearing that the fire would spread and burn their own houses. Those who transferred property and those who fled to fight the fire were in a mess.

At this time, there was a sudden rush of horseshoes and shouts from the rioting crowd, and there were a large number of people.

Shi Yuqiu was startled, thinking that someone from Bu Liugu's family had come here, he turned around to check.

A group of cavalry in plain clothes, like a thunderbolt, broke through the rioting crowd and rushed towards him, stopping at the bottom of the gate tower.

The leader was riding on horseback, with a heroic figure, tall and straight, very handsome, with a pair of phoenix eyes that were not angry and majestic, he reined in the reins, controlled the restless horse because of the fire, swept around and stood there The crowd frowned, and they all had a sharp aura like a blade.

Shi Yuqiu was subconsciously timid, but when he thought that the visitor was just a descendant of the Han people, and the Han people were all slaves of the Xianbei people, what was there to be afraid of, so he suppressed his subconsciousness, and asked arrogantly :

"Who are you?! What are you doing?!"

Xie Yuan turned his head when he heard the sound, glanced at him with a pair of sharp eyebrows in disgust, and asked in a condescending voice:
"Where's the person you bought today? Where's Lingxiu?!"

Shi Yuqiuzheng couldn't stop panicking again, his eyeballs twitched, and then he said with a guilty conscience:
"What Lingxiu, I don't know! It's none of your business, can you control me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a faint and shrill scream of a woman from inside the building.

Xie Yuan suddenly looked at the position on the second floor, his pupils shrinking slightly.Then look at the thick smoke billowing from the door downstairs, and people pouring buckets and pans into it didn't work, and they couldn't get in.

Xie Yuan pursed his lips, and pulled the horse around anxiously for half a circle.

The voices calling for help from inside were still faintly heard, shrill and desperate, obviously more than one or two.

She hesitated for a moment, and finally leaned on the saddle and jumped onto the horse's back. Then, stepping on the horse's back, she leaped towards the window sill on the second floor.

"General!!!" Ke Sande and a group of soldiers were startled and shouted in unison.

"Xie Yuan! What are you doing, don't be reckless!" Liu Qinbing also called her anxiously.

The window was closed, and Xie Yuan leaned on the window sill with one hand, pulled it with his hand but did not move it, then drew his sword and slashed across.

With a sword strike, the carved wood of the window snapped. She flicked a sword flower to close the saber, and then kicked off the wall and turned back, and the whole person fell into the broken window.

All the movements are done in one go, without wasting a moment.

When Ke Sande saw this, he was about to greet someone, and the Arhat asked him to step on and follow.

They had just arrived under the window when they saw Xie Yuan's long legs and soap boots flash past, and kicked the remaining windows and doors of the window clean with two "squeaks".She also stuck her head out of the window, frowning and ordering neatly:
"Don't come up, pick people up below!" After saying that, she disappeared.

This is an order and must be obeyed.

Ke Sande and the others looked up at the thick smoke billowing out of the window, apprehensive and terrified in their hearts, worried about Xie Yuan's safety and worried that their hands were sweating, but they still obeyed the order and waited under the window, like a A long-awaited wood...

Seeing this, Shi Yuqiu also swallowed nervously—this Han man is an idiot, if the idiot can be burned to death with him, that would be great.

……

Thick smoke floated in the air, and on the roof, the dark red flames in the distance on the opposite side were faintly visible in the smoke. Xie Yuan bowed his waist, endured the heat wave, and quickly searched for the source of the voice for help.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a person beside the stage, half kneeling and half standing hanging there with bare legs, his upper body was covered by smoke and dust, and his face could not be seen clearly.

She hurried over to untie her, while untying the rope, while waving her arms to drive away the thick smoke, just as the smoke cleared a little, a terrifying face appeared.

She was already dead, with her head raised, solidified wax accumulated on her eyes, forming a bulge, and her mouth was wide open, as if she was still crying out in agony before dying.

Even though Xie Yuan was used to seeing death, she was also shocked by such a cruel scene. Her hands trembled, and then she pressed her resolute lips tightly, her eyes flushed with anger.

There is no time for useless stops.The cry for help has been lost...

"Lingxiu!! Where are you!" Xie Yuan shouted, because his voice was high-pitched with anger, and seemed to have the power to pierce everything.

In the attic, she had already shrunk into a corner, almost fainted because of the smog and the despair of death, Lingxiu woke up in an instant, she fell to the ground, and stretched out her hand towards the door.Exhausted all the strength, with the already hoarse voice, crying and shouting:

"General Xie...I am here, General Xie...help me..."
