Chapter 158 A Sea of ​​Fire

In autumn, the sky turns white. It is already the time of day, and a thin layer of frost has formed outside the hut, as if it has snowed, crystal clear.

When Gu Wanqing woke up, she changed her habit of staying in bed and got up to wash up, while the aunt had already prepared breakfast.

Gu Qin slept in the kitchen, so he wouldn't sleep in the yard. After all, the autumn frost and dew in the middle of the night would aggravate his injuries, so the kitchen should be warmer.

As soon as the aunt came in to cook, he woke up and helped add some firewood.

After a sumptuous breakfast, the aunt tidied up the things neatly and cleanly before she carried the packed luggage, closed the door, looked at it with nostalgia, and then turned her head and got into the carriage.

Before Gu Qin got on the horse, he saw that Xiao Hei and Bai Xue were tied with ropes, so he patted their horse's buttocks respectively, sighed, and got on the horse.

"Fortunately, your master can figure it out, we are a thousand-mile horse, when have we been ruined like this..." Xiao Hei said very sadly, a thousand-mile horse-drawn carriage really lowered their status.

"You can protest." Bai Xue replied very coldly.

Hearing this, Xiao Hei glanced at Gu Wanqing who was about to walk over, and sighed, his master just slapped his ass, so he must have resigned himself to his fate.

Hey……

When Gu Qin got into the carriage, Gu Wanqing walked up to Bai Xue and Xiao Hei, and said, "You know the way home, don't you?"

Both Bai Xue and Xiao Hei nodded.

Gu Wanqing was very satisfied with the response of the two of them, and then continued with a smile: "Well, if you are really smart, then you should look at the road yourself, at a normal speed, not too fast, so as not to be too bumpy, you understand?"

Bai Xue and Xiao Hei nodded again.

Seeing that the two horses understood everything, Gu Wanqing got into the carriage. Fortunately, Bai Xue and Xiao Hei were very intelligent and could understand people's words. Otherwise, none of the three of them would sit in the front of the carriage and drive the horses, and this trip would really be impossible.

As soon as Gu Wanqing got into the carriage, Bai Xue and Xiao Hei started to run slowly.

Gu Qin heard Gu Wanqing's words to the two horses, saw her come in, and said with a smile: "I thought you were the coachman, I was flattered for once."

"Riding a horse is already very difficult, but driving a cart... Fortunately, they are both smart...hehe~" Gu Wanqing said a little embarrassed.

"I've never seen such a smart horse, I don't need a driver to drive it..." The aunt said in surprise when she heard what the two of them said.

Gu Wanqing took out some snacks such as melon seeds and candied fruit from the hidden compartment of the carriage, and said, "Come, eat, drink, and sleep, I guess we will be able to arrive in Xiangxi at the latest the day after tomorrow."

"You're well prepared." Gu Qin boasted, but he closed his eyes and was about to go to sleep. Although he had taken the medicine given by Lengpo before his injury, it was still very heavy, and he hadn't rested for the past few days. Okay, now lying on the cushion that Gu Wanqing specially made for him, the carriage shook slightly, and he felt sleepy.

Seeing that Gu Qin closed his eyes and fell asleep, Gu Wanqing knew that he hadn't rested well during this time, so she stopped disturbing her, grabbed a candied fruit and stuffed it into the aunt's hand, and said softly, "Eat, you're welcome~"

The aunt took it with a smile and ate it slowly.

There was nothing to say along the way, Gu Wanqing was so sleepy from being shaken by the carriage, she greeted the aunt, and then lay down and fell asleep on the spot, the aunt saw that both of them were asleep, she opened the curtain and took a look, but she didn't recognize the person who was going to Xiangxi Since Gu Wanqing believed so much that the two horses could recognize the way to Xiangxi, she lowered the curtain and began to doze off.

Baixue and Xiaohei are famous horses for thousands of miles. After eating and drinking enough, they walked all day and night without stopping. On the evening of the second day, they finally arrived at a small town outside the city of Xiangxi.

Seeing that Gu Qin's face was a little pale, Gu Wanqing thought that the carriage must be shaking and made him uncomfortable, so she said, "Why don't we rest here for a night?"

Gu Qin has been to this town before, so Xiao Hei led the way and passed by here.

Hearing this, Gu Qin knew that Gu Wanqing was worried about her injury, and his stomach was overwhelmed at this time, and he was very uncomfortable. I am afraid that his complexion would not be much better, so he did not try to be brave, and said, "Okay, it will only take you two days to get to Xiangxi City from here. It takes three hours, if we set off early tomorrow morning, we should be able to arrive in Xiangxi at noon."

"Well, okay, I can just go home for lunch~haha..." Gu Wanqing smiled, went out and sat in the front of the car, looking for an inn, not thinking that Xiao Hei had a good memory, and didn't need Gu Wanqing to say anything, so he sat in a small room, looking The inn, which looked very simple, stopped.

Gu Wanqing raised her eyebrows, patted Xiao Hei's ass in a very happy mood, and boasted, "You're really smart~"

The group stayed in this inn and had a sumptuous dinner. After the meal, Gu Wanqing shared a room with the aunt, and Gu Qin slept next door.

Sleeping in the middle of the night, Gu Wanqing's sleep became hotter and hotter. She felt anxious and dizzy. She wanted to open her eyes, but she couldn't.

"Wanqing! Wanqing! Wake up!"

"Wanqing!"

She heard someone calling her, the voice seemed to be Meng Cangqing's, but she couldn't wake up.

Meng Cangqing watched the fire in the room spread more and more, and his whole body covered Gu Wanqing's body, exuding the cold air from his body, hoping to wake her up.

When he found out that it was on fire, the flames had already surrounded the whole room, he couldn't get out with Gu Wanqing in his arms, so he had to keep calling Gu Wanqing.

Sure enough, Gu Wanqing wakes up with one heat, one cold, and one shiver.

"You finally woke up, it's on fire, hurry up!" Meng Cangqing said when she saw that she finally woke up.

What?on fire? !
Gu Wanqing looked back and saw a sea of ​​flames, and the aunt was sleeping on the opposite bed, she was still unconscious at this time, she realized something was wrong.

"Ma'am!" She immediately put on her shoes and was about to rush over to save others, but luckily she didn't take off her clothes because she was going to sleep with Xiao Bai in her arms.

"She was intoxicated by the incense. There is water on the table. If you pour it on, she will wake up." Meng Cangqing reminded that he was sweating profusely from the scorching fire around him, so it would be bad to stay here, so he rushed into the room immediately. Among the mahogany bracelets.

Gu Wanqing did as soon as she heard the words, poured water on it, and the aunt really woke up slowly, before she could react, Gu Wanqing stepped forward to help her up and said: "Ma'am, it's on fire, we have to get out quickly."

"Ah? Is it on fire?" The aunt was so frightened by these words that she immediately woke up for three minutes, then looked around, and immediately became fully awake, and said dully: "Why is it so good, it's on fire?"

"Don't ask so many questions, hurry up and leave, if you don't leave, you won't be able to get out." Gu Wanqing said urgently.

At this time, the fire was burning hotter and hotter, and many things had already burned and fell from the roof. Gu Wanqing supported the aunt, dodging from left to right, exclaiming again and again, the surrounding temperature was scorching hot, and the heat wave was rolling. Gu Wanqing also felt this feeling. I met it in the stone palace inside the giant tree.

At this time, there was a "pop", and the beam on the roof was blown off, and it fell down with a bang.

The aunt couldn't dodge for a while, and she happened to be overwhelmed by her feet.

"Ma'am!" Gu Wanqing exclaimed in shock.

"Good boy, hurry up, leave auntie alone..." auntie said in great pain, a sharp burning pain came from her ankle, which distorted her face, but she refused to call out, making Gu Wanqing worried.

"No! Auntie, since I brought you out, I won't let you die here!" Gu Wanqing said, then ran to the beam and tried to lift it up, but the whole beam was on fire. It was hot when she touched it, so she had to secretly use her spiritual power to protect her hands, and when she lifted it hard, she actually lifted the beam quite a bit.

"Ma'am, you can climb a little bit." Gu Wanqing said with difficulty.

Generally, the beams used to make houses are not as heavy as a thousand catties, but also weigh several hundred catties. Gu Wanqing was able to use her strength to lift the beams this time, because she was baptized by the breath of the giant tree, and her body became very strong. , Powerful, so eat a lot more.

The aunt felt that the heavy object on her feet had been lifted, she gritted her teeth and crawled forward desperately, finally she got out, when Gu Wanqing saw it, she let go of her hand immediately, only hearing a bang, she hurried forward to help her Picking up the aunt, said: "Ma'am, hold on, I'll take you out."

At this time, Gu Wanqing mobilized the spiritual power in her body to form a thin protective layer around them, protecting the two of them in the middle, temporarily isolating them from the raging fire, and rushed towards the door. Fortunately, the fire closed the door The burning was very fragile, so she just slammed it hard, broke through the door, broke through the fence on the second floor outside, and fell straight down.

Gu Wanqing secretly used lightness kung fu to slow down the falling speed, hurriedly arranged the aunt in a safe place, and turned her head to look for Gu Qin's figure. There were many people in the yard, all of whom were ashamed by the fire. I didn't see Gu Qin in the circle, and looked at the next room, his expression became very dignified!

She hurried to the water tank placed in the yard, fetched a bucket of water to get herself wet, and then flew to Gu Qin's room on the second floor.

"Good boy, Huo Da, where are you going!" Seeing Gu Wanqing's series of movements, the aunt cried out from behind her in fright, with a crying tone in her voice.

Gu Wanqing rushed into Gu Qin's room as if she had never heard of it, and took a look at the bed, but there was no one there, where is anyone?
The fire inside was also very strong, and the smoke made her eyes start to shed tears. She couldn't see where Gu Qin was, so she shouted, "Gu Qin, are you inside?"

"Gu Qin, where are you, squeak!"

"Gu Qin!"

But after calling for a long time, no one answered.

Gu Wanqing became more and more anxious, worried that Gu Qin would wake up and want to run out, but would be trapped in the fire and fainted by the smoke. She hesitated for a while, and finally decided to rush in and look for it, in case someone really fainted inside , If you miss it, you will really be gone.

There was already a sea of ​​flames inside, and the blazing flames could be seen everywhere fiercely licking everything that could be burned. Even though Gu Wanqing had spiritual power to protect her body and drenched her body with water, she could still feel the scorching heat, which was a bit stinging. Painful, she searched inside, but still couldn't find anyone, she was so anxious that she panicked.
