back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 341 Fire
Qin Ming opened his mouth, and when he wanted to say something, he saw that Su Shi had put down the mosquito net, and murmured, "You know that, but you don't want to say anything if the Holy One knows..."

Su Shi could hear him talking, but pretended not to hear him.After driving for so many days, Su Shi soon fell asleep.

In a daze, Su Shi suddenly heard shouting from downstairs: "It's the water, it's the water..." With a jerk, he turned over and got up, grabbed the Shang Fang sword in his arms, and was about to rush out .

Qin Ming also got up almost at the same time. Although he was not flustered, he grabbed the flustered Su Shi and shouted: "Great talent, calm down. Now let's figure out what happened."

Only then did Su Shi calm down a little bit. At this time, there was a loud knock on the door, and a student shouted: "Head, let's go, it's water!"

Feeling a faint heat wave coming, Qin Ming was taken aback.He had seen the power of fire before, and if he was trapped by the fire, it would be hard not to die.These days, there is no cure for burns.Even if they were rescued, unless the burns were not serious, they would all be waiting to die.The structures of the houses at this time were all brick and wood structures, mainly made of wood, which were easily ignited.Once there is a fire, it is almost impossible to extinguish the fire.

Qin Ming drew out the dagger, cut the quilt as quickly as possible, then took the teapot, poured tea on it, covered his mouth and nose, then threw a piece to Su Shi, and said in a muffled voice, "Let's go!"

Su Shi was already at a loss, so he followed out quickly.As soon as the door was opened, a wave of heat rushed over.Qin Ming took a closer look and found that the fire was coming from the first floor, and when he looked again, the thieves who were originally tied to the first floor were gone!

Who set the fire?
A doubt flashed in Qin Ming's mind, but it was obvious that it was impossible to go out through the main entrance now.The fire will spread quickly, and the only way to survive is to jump down from the second floor.

Qin Ming made a decisive decision and ordered: "You all jump out of my room!"

The students of the Royal Military Academy have all been well-trained, and the height of this mere one and a half feet is not difficult for them.I saw the two of them jumping in a team, and then when they were about to reach the ground, they rolled over.

Only then did Su Shi understand why Lu Chengqi was full of confidence in them.Because each of these students of the Royal Military Academy is trained according to the military division routine designed by him, in order to train the special forces of this era.Reconnaissance, counter-reconnaissance, infiltration behind enemy lines, detours, information transmission, beheading operations... They all have training, and they are training day after day.Among them are the subjects of how to snipe and kill important figures of the enemy country in restaurants and teahouses of the enemy country, and how to evacuate regardless of success or failure.

Therefore, facing such a situation, they did not panic at all.However, Su Shi did not have such an experience. In the panic, he lost his former wisdom and martial arts, and was led away by others like a headless fly.

After the three teams of Royal Military Academy cadets went down, Qin Ming shouted: "Great talent, you dance!"

Su Shi was stunned for a moment, and when he was about to say something, Qin Ming said anxiously: "What are you afraid of, they will catch you! Hurry up, the fire is coming!"

Before he finished speaking, there was a crackling sound from the door of the room, and there was a faint smell of tung oil.

Qin Ming turned pale with shock, and shouted: "Someone wants to put us to death!"

Su Shi was still dawdling, but Qin Ming couldn't stand it any longer. He picked up Su Shi's slightly obese body, lifted his weight lightly, and shouted, "Next!"

Su Shi felt as if his body was flying through the clouds, and he was so frightened that he couldn't make a sound, and almost threw the Shang Fang sword in his arms.The next moment, he felt that someone had caught him firmly, and Su Shi's soul returned to his body.

Immediately afterwards, the cadets of the Royal Military Academy jumped down one by one. Qin Ming broke the back himself, and after carrying Su Shi's bag on his back, he also jumped up and rolled all over without hurting a single hair.

When Su Shi saw Qin Ming carry out his luggage, he remembered that the secret decree given to him by Lu Chengqi was still in the luggage.If it came to an emergency, it would still be very difficult for him to mobilize the Xiang army with this Shangfang sword alone and without the holy decree.

Qin Ming handed the luggage to Su Shi, looked around, and found a group of 16 people. After all of them arrived, he asked, "Is there anything else you haven't taken?"

Behind every cadet of the Royal Military Academy, there was a bag on their backs, and they said in unison: "No!"

Qin Ming nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Little bastards, you did a good job this time, and I finally didn't waste my efforts."

After Su Shi got out of danger, he finally recovered a little or two.It's just that the blood on the overly frightened face is still a little less.Staring blankly at the inn covered by the fire, he murmured, "Who wants to kill us?"

Qin Ming sneered, and said, "It must be the mastermind behind the scenes. Even the tung oil was spilled on it, so it's clear that there is no way to survive. Fortunately, we are smart, otherwise, we would really be roasted whole sheep!"

Su Shi's condition is not very good now, he fell into a drowsy sleep, and was almost burned into a ball of black charcoal.After passing through the clouds and fog again, the ingenuity in his head seemed to be still in the inn, listening to Qin Ming's words, he didn't know how to respond for a while.

However, Su Shi is Su Shi after all, and his mentality adjusted quickly.After a while, Su Shi's thoughts slowly came back: "Qin Dalang, did you see other people come out?"

Qin Ming was taken aback, he was just thinking, who wants them to die so much, but didn't notice this problem.At this moment, a cadet from the Royal Military Academy said: "Great Talent Su, when I got up, I didn't find anyone calling for help in the inn, and there was no screaming. I don't think anyone would sleep so dead, and call for water so loudly, dead people!" I can hear it all."

Qin Ming sneered and said, "It's such a big deal, even if we set up an inn, it will kill us. What kind of enmity is that?"

At this time, the inn, which was completely covered with tung oil, had become a sea of ​​flames.Su Shi stared blankly at the red flames, illuminating half of the sky, his thoughts turned sharply, but he couldn't figure out a clue for a long time.

The only thing that is certain now is that someone already knows their identities and wants to kill them.Su Shi couldn't figure it out, why didn't they put medicine in the wine and dishes, and they had to send a group of thieves to kill them first, and then set fire to the building?
After hearing Su Shi's question, Qin Ming couldn't explain why for a long time.It was the student who turned his head quickly: "Could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes is using this method to tell us not to investigate any further?"

Qin Ming's eyes lit up: "Yes, he is just saying, if we continue to investigate, the next time it will be true!"

Su Shi heard the words, but said nothing, just stared blankly at the inn that had been turned into rubble, thinking carefully about the clues inside.After a while, Su Shi thought of a very important flaw, and suddenly asked: "Then who is calling for water?"
