Chapter 122

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Murong Qing was so smoked that his eyes watered, his throat was also greatly irritated, and he began to cough violently.

"Hurry up, someone is going to die..."

At first, Murong Qing slammed on the door and shouted loudly, but gradually, all the strength in his body was exhausted.

Coupled with the billowing smoke, she couldn't make any sound because of the choking, and she felt a little desperate in her heart.

The smoke outside was getting thicker and thicker, Murong Qing was trapped in the room, his body had gradually weakened, he was sitting on the ground leaning against the table, his mind was still spinning non-stop.

Even in the most dangerous situation, she will never give up the last chance of survival.

The matter of being peeped at this morning suddenly flashed through his mind, and Murong Qing had a guess in his mind.

"It seems that this incident was indeed obstructed by someone. If I am not burned to death this time, I must go out and find the person who assassinated me."

But in this situation, can we still go out from here?

The more dangerous it is, the greater the desire to survive. At this critical moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Murong Qing's mind.

By the way, the door is closed, but where are the windows?
"Yes, windows!"

Why didn't I think of it just now?
There was another glimmer of hope for life, Murong Qing struggled, exhausted all his strength to get up from the ground, staggered all the way while holding on to the table, and finally walked to the window.

"Why can't it be opened?"

Exhausted all the strength of the whole body, but the window didn't move at all.

Murong Qing sat slumped against the wall in disappointment, his hope of life was extinguished once again.

Thick smoke has spread into the house from various gaps in the house, and the whole house has been surrounded by thick smoke.

Murong Qing's throat was already sore from choking, and when he was in desperation, he suddenly saw a bucket squatting in the corner.

bucket!

She remembered that there was always a bucket in the corner of the bookstore, which was used by the store owner to mop the floor.

Murong Qing's eyes instantly shone brightly.

Saved!
Enduring the pain in his body and the soreness in his eyes, he groped his way through the thick smoke and reached the corner of the wall.

She was a little confused by the thick smoke, and before she had time to think about it, she picked up a bucket of water and poured it down from the top of her head.

The hot body was poured with cold water, and it instantly cooled down, and the mind became much clearer in an instant.

But looking back at the house surrounded by fire, Murong Qing had no choice but to sit down helplessly leaning against the corner.

At this moment, there is only resignation to fate.

The owner of the bookstore had a big meal in the restaurant, had enough wine and food, and even burped.

"Xiao Er pays the bill." The owner of the bookstore took out the silver and slapped it on the table, got up and went out.

"Guest officer, go slowly."

The owner of the bookstore patted his belly and walked slowly on the road, but he saw a fire in his bookstore from a long distance away, he couldn't believe it for a moment, so he wiped his eyes and ran forward quickly.

"on fire?"

When he ran to the door of the bookstore, he was sure that his bookstore had caught fire, so the boss froze in place.

The owner of the bookstore was a little dumbfounded seeing his foundation, which he had worked so hard for decades, go down like this.

The raging fire was burning around the bookstore, like a huge mouth of an abyss, it was already going to swallow the bookstore.

The bookstore owner stood outside for a while in despair, and seeing that the door was locked, he suddenly remembered that Murong Qing was still locked in by him, and panicked instantly.

"Miss Murong, where are you? Can you hear me?" the bookstore owner shouted loudly.

"If you can hear me, respond."

But the sound of the burning fire had overwhelmed everything, and there was no movement at all in the bookstore.

The bookstore owner felt even more desperate.

"It's over, it's over, this is a big mess, Miss Murong is in danger!"

The fire was about to engulf the door of the bookstore. The boss wanted to rush into the fire to open the door, but found that he couldn't get in at all.

Thinking about Murong Qing's honorable status, he is the general's wife, if something happens to Murong Qing in his shop, then he will lose his head.

"What should I do?" The bookstore owner was anxiously walking around the door, but his mind was blank.

"How can something like this happen in my store? I knew that I wouldn't lock the door when I went out. At least no one would be killed." The bookstore owner felt remorseful and angry.

Seeing that the situation was out of control, he finally thought of Pei Mo.

When he arrived at the General's Mansion, the bookstore owner was already panting from exhaustion, and only had the strength left to stand.

When the servants of the General's Mansion saw the owner of the bookstore, they were quite surprised.

"Shop owner, why are you here? Didn't Madam come back with you?" The man said and looked back, but he didn't see Murong Qing.

"Quick... tell the general... something happened to Miss Murong!"

"what?"

The servant was stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran to Pei Mo's study.

"General, it's not good!"

The servant was also frightened and panicked: "The owner of the bookstore just said that something happened to Madam, you should go and have a look, General."

Pei Mo was reading in the study at this time, waiting for Murong Qing to come back to have dinner together, but he didn't want to hear the news, his expression changed suddenly, and he had already rushed out of the room.

"What happened, tell me quickly!"

Seeing the owner of the bookstore, Pei Mo asked anxiously.

"The shop...the shop is on fire," the bookstore owner was frightened and anxious, and was so anxious that he wiped the sweat from his face with his hands, "Madam is still inside the shop!"

"what!"

The servant who followed was startled, and immediately froze in place.

Pei Mo gasped even more in his heart, before he had time to scold the bookstore owner, he jumped on his horse and rushed all the way to the bookstore.

The fire burned even more fiercely, already dyeing the surrounding sky red.

When Pei Mo arrived at the bookstore on horseback, he already noticed that the surrounding temperature had risen several degrees.

The bookstore owner and a few servants did not dare to neglect, hurriedly followed behind Pei Mo, and headed towards the scene of the fire.

"lady!"

Pei Mo's eyes were on fire, and as soon as he arrived at the scene, he jumped off his horse and rushed straight into the fire.

"General can't!"

"General, let's think of another way, this is very dangerous!"

The bookstore owner and a group of servants grabbed Pei Mo almost at the same time.

The fire burned so hard that he rushed in alone, fearing that he would have to die.

"You let me go!"

Pei Mo was anxious and angry, and shook off those who held him with all his strength. Before the group of people could react, his figure had already rushed to the door of the bookstore.

"General!"

"Ma'am wait for me, I will definitely not let you have trouble."

"Peng! Peng Peng!"

The door of the room had been somewhat damaged by the fire, and after several vigorous kicks by Pei Mo, the door of the study was finally kicked open.
