Daughter of General

Chapter 151 Fire
After eating, Shen Yulan fell asleep, and Jin He didn't say much, just smiled and talked about going back tomorrow morning.

After a tiring day, Shen Yulan soon fell into a sound sleep.

Huoxiang and Zisu kept watch at night, seeing Shen Yulan like this, they just smiled: "It's finally much better than the previous few days. I couldn't sleep for a long time in the past few days. I just woke up when I fell asleep, or I was dreaming, why? It’s not stable either. Sure enough, being quiet is effective.”

After watching for a while, the two quietly retreated to the outer room and settled down on the small couch in the outer room.

Just squinted for a while, but heard the noise outside again, at first I thought it was just a few words by accident, but who knows... the noise is getting louder and louder.

Zisu turned over quickly: "Something's wrong, I'll go and have a look."

Huoxiang also listened attentively in the mist, and also frowned: "What's the matter. It's the middle of the night, it's noisy like this, don't bother the eldest lady." She also turned over, put on her clothes and looked at Shen Yu Lanna, seeing that Shen Yulan was not woken up, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Zisu opened the door, stood in the yard and listened intently, then glanced at the direction of the noise, and was shocked: "It's flooded!"

Zisu hurriedly went in again, and said to Huoxiang, "It's gone. I don't know where it is, but it looks like it's far away from us."

Huoxiang was also taken aback: "Is it better to ask the eldest lady to get up? What if—"

"Yeah." Zisu thought for a while, and then gritted her teeth and responded - it's not a good thing that the season is going out of style.The mountain wind is strong, and the houses are all made of wood. Once it burns down, it will be a catastrophe.

The two rushed to call Shen Yulan, but who knew that Shen Yulan was in a deep sleep——

After waiting for a long time, Shen Yulan was woken up in a daze, and the noise outside was already overwhelming.Shouts were heard everywhere: "The water is gone—"

Shen Yulan heard the shouts outside in a daze, and immediately shivered with fright, "Did you run out of water?"

"Isn't it? Missy, put on your clothes quickly. Let's see the situation. If it's not good, we should evacuate quickly." Huo Xiang said strong and calm while helping Shen Yulan put on clothes.

Shen Yulan nodded, patted her cheeks, and while actively cooperating with Huoxiang's movements, she told Zisu: "Quickly, go and see if Miss Biao is awake."

Only then did Zi Su think of Jin He's side, and hurried over to call them.

Just putting on clothes, the outside seems to be getting more and more chaotic.

Shen Yulan stood by the window, opened a slit and looked out - suddenly shocked: the flames had already turned half of the sky red.From this point of view, the fire is probably not small.

Shen Yulan thought for a while, "Clean up the things that should be packed, let's find a place to avoid it." After saying this, she didn't dare to stay in the house anymore, and hurriedly helped Huoxiang pack her things .

Not long after, Zisu came back in a hurry, wondering, "What's going on? Miss Biao isn't in the room at all."

Shen Yulan was startled—and then she was also surprised: "Where is it if it's not in the room? No one is there?"

Zi Su nodded, "It's not like everyone is gone."

"Maybe it's because the situation is not right, so let's go first." The girl Banxia who was sleeping in the other room also came over in a hurry, and when she heard this, she interrupted.

But Shen Yulan didn't believe it: "How could Sister He leave me alone?" No matter how urgent the situation was, Jin He would definitely come to inform her first.

"No matter what, let's leave this place first." Zisu pushed Shen Yulan, and finally saw Shen Yulan's worried look, so she said: "Miss, let's go first, I'll go." Miss Xunbiao."

Shen Yulan had no choice but to agree, and the group of people hurried out of the yard with small bags on their shoulders.

As soon as she left the courtyard, Shen Yulan suddenly saw a group of men in black, she was startled, and hurriedly dragged the two maids to hide in the dark side, the two maids also froze in fright, I dare not move.

The reason why Shen Yulan reacted so violently was not only because of caution and psychological instability, but also because she clearly saw the dangling swords in the hands of those men in black under the flickering fire!

Almost immediately, Shen Yulan felt as if time had returned to that time, the time when she just woke up and faced life and death!Even at that time, every move of Wu's was cleaned up in his mind!

Unable to restrain herself, Shen Yulan trembled slightly.But he gritted his teeth tightly, not daring to make a sound.

But the other party's original direction was this way, even if they didn't make a sound at all, they couldn't resist exposing their figure!
Shen Yulan didn't think that a group of men in black broke into the temple with big knives in the middle of the night to pay homage to the Buddha!Moreover, even now, she doesn't think that the fire in the temple started accidentally!Instead, she was more inclined to say that someone set the fire on purpose!
Even though the heat wave from the fire rolled over the surface, Shen Yulan still felt chills all over her body!
After forcing herself to calm down, Shen Yulan gritted her teeth and got up, dragged the two girls and ran into the depths of the courtyard—at this time, she would rather face unknown dangers than test the intention of the man in black!

Fortunately, she is very familiar with this temple, so she is not afraid of going the wrong way.Along the way, not only have to go farther away from the water, but also be careful to avoid those men in black.

The two girls followed tremblingly all the way, but they also knew that they were walking behind Shen Yulan, and looked back at the situation from time to time, their nerves were tense, and they dared not relax in the slightest.

In the end, Shen Yulan took a few girls and hid in the courtyard where Qi Yuzhou used to live. The three of them were crowded together, and they could almost hear each other's heartbeats.

However, Shen Yulan also felt that she was lucky - at least she was not chased by anyone.As long as he hides quietly until dawn, naturally nothing will happen.Those men in black—that is, now they can run rampant in the temple for a while.When the monks extinguished the fire and came back to their senses, it would naturally be dealt with.

One must know that in this century-old temple, there are not only monks who can chant scriptures, but even monks can be found everywhere.Otherwise, how could Qi Yuzhou learn art in the temple?
Moreover, the kung fu of those monks is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

On this point, Shen Yulan is very confident - the reason why this temple is so highly respected is not only because of teaching Buddhism, but also because the monks can guarantee the safety of the ladies and wives living in the temple.Otherwise, who can rest assured?
Shen Yulan couldn't help praying in her heart—hoping that she would have better luck and escape from this catastrophe.

"Miss, tell me what's going on here." Ban Xia's voice had a hint of tears in it, and the panicked look was no different from that of a frightened rabbit.

Before Shen Yulan could answer, Huoxiang pinched Pinellia: "Who knows about this? Stop talking nonsense, let's just hide quietly."

Naturally, Shen Yulan could tell that Huoxiang looked calm on the surface, but in fact she was similar to Banxia—she was quite frightened.

Immediately, she couldn't help but smile wryly—even she herself was quite frightened.She has experienced such a thing once, but she doesn't want to experience it again.Although there is still no danger to be seen now, let alone a thread of life hanging by a thread like it was back then, it has easily brought back the psychological shadow left by the last time.

Shen Yulan had to admit that she was really scared.Very very scared.

But no matter how Shen Yulan and the three of them prayed, the hoped-for tranquility was still broken—when she heard the sound of running footsteps outside the courtyard and the sound of shouting at each other, Shen Yulan immediately understood—that it might be caught up.

What made Shen Yulan's heart suddenly aroused was that she clearly heard someone shout: "The eldest lady of the Shen family hasn't been found yet? How is it possible!"

Shen Yulan got up suddenly, and lowered her voice: "Quick, come with me." After saying this, she didn't dare to delay at all, and ran all the way - after hearing this sentence, she was almost absolutely sure that the other party was rushing. came with her.

Under such circumstances, if you don't run for your life, what are you waiting for?Although I don't know who is staring at her, but now she has no defense ability at all, so she can only escape.Only by escaping with her life can she go back to investigate the matter and find the person who targeted her.

Although the sky is dark at the moment, but fortunately, people are relieved that the place where the water walks in the distance brings more or less a ray of light.

Shen Yulan looked at this little bit of faint light, and then relied on the path that he desperately recalled in his mind, struggling to identify the direction, looking for a safe way to escape for himself.

Shen Yulan took the path that Qi Yuzhou took her back then - this path can leave the temple in a concealed manner, and then enter the back mountain.At this moment, even if there were some wild beasts on the back mountain, she couldn't care less.At least, she would rather choose Houshan than those men in black.

Although it is possible to encounter wild beasts, it is also possible that they will not encounter them.It all depends on luck.

And it fell into the hands of the man in black?
Shen Yulan didn't dare to rest all the way, she ran panting, even though her legs were about to lose weight, she didn't dare to relax a bit.

The same is true for the two girls.The three of them ran wildly all the way. Under the leadership of Shen Yulan, they quietly followed the original path, left the temple, and entered the densely forested back mountain.

After entering the back mountain, Shen Yulan still didn't dare to delay, and went all the way up.It's just that I didn't know if there were any pursuers behind me, so I was so afraid that I found an open place and looked in the direction of the temple - standing on a high place at this time, although there were trees blocking it, Shen Yulan was still standing there. It was so easy to see the burning temple——

And at this moment, she finally realized how serious the flooding situation was - the entire temple, not just one place was on fire, almost a third of it was in flames.No wonder the people in the temple panicked like that, almost all went to put out the fire.

In such a situation, if you don't go to fight the fire, it's not uncommon for the entire temple to burn down.
