Rebirth Nunnery

Chapter 36 Intimidation and Threat
Lin Yin didn't stay any longer, and quickly left the small courtyard.

Ding Jiayi hasn't recovered from the news he just received for a while, and he didn't notice when he left.

And when Ding Jiayi came back to her senses, she was the only one left in the room.

Looking at the empty room, Ding Jiayi patted his head in frustration, and hurried out of the room.

She still has a lot of questions that she hasn't figured out. Why did this guy leave?
But when Ding Jiayi went out, he only saw the quiet courtyard, and did not see the black figure again.

"Who is it..."

Ding Jiayi muttered dissatisfiedly, and was about to turn around when a figure appeared behind her suddenly, which startled her greatly.

When he saw that it was a sleepy red face, Ding Jiayi subconsciously patted his chest.

"What are you doing in the middle of the night, it scares me to death."

Hong Yi looked puzzled, holding an oil lamp in her hand, tilted her head and said, "I'm a congratulatory girl... why aren't you asleep, girl?"

Ding Jiayi blushed. Fortunately, it was very dark and no one would see her.

"Ahem...that, me too..."

"Really? I didn't see you girl in the clean room..."

Hong Yi rubbed her eyes, as if she hadn't woken up yet.

Ding Jiayi gave a dry laugh, and pushed her to the room: "Didn't I see you here, so I didn't go in...Okay, okay, go to sleep first!"

Hong Yi had no doubt about him, she nodded and went back to her room.

Ding Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief, gathered her clothes and went back to sleep.

Ding Jiayi didn't sleep well that night. In her sleep, the figure of Lin Yin, the man in black, always appeared, especially his eyes, which always gave Ding Jiayi a very familiar feeling, but she couldn't say specifically.

The entire small courtyard was silent, and even the insects and birds seemed to have fallen asleep.

After midnight, a crisp knocking sound came from a distance, adding a strange atmosphere to the empty courtyard.

But at this time outside the small courtyard, a few black shadows jumped out from some corner.

Three or five people surrounded the entrance of the small courtyard. They couldn't see their appearance clearly under the dark night. They were only known to be wearing black night clothes and masks on their faces.

"The master has ordered, just to scare you, don't kill me, be careful, don't cause trouble to the master at this time." The leader ordered a few words in a low voice, and then the group dispersed.

After a while, a flame burst out from the corner of the courtyard.

At this time, everyone had already fallen asleep, and no one noticed the changes in this small courtyard.

On the other side, Ding Jiayi was sleeping, and suddenly felt a pungent smell coming from her nose. She had been sleeping unsteadily, and was suddenly awakened.

Putting on a coat casually, Ding Jiayi opened the door and looked, his expression changed drastically.

The entire small courtyard was surrounded by fire, and it was a fiery red as far as the eye could see. The scorching hot breath rushed towards the face, mixed with the pungent burnt smell, and countless ashes floated in the air, almost even the black sky was reflected in red.

Ding Jiayi took a step back in horror, hit the door frame before reacting, and hurried to Hongyi and He Niang's room.

Fortunately, for convenience, He Niang and Hong Yi have always slept in the same room.

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

"Hanniang! Hongyi! Open the door, it's on fire!"

Ding Jiayi yelled anxiously, and slammed on the door, only to hear a "boom", and the door was slammed open by her.

Rejoicing that Hongyi didn't lock the door, Ding Jiayi ran in, saw the two people on the bed, and pulled them up.

He Niang and Hong Yi were still in a hazy state, and didn't understand what happened for a while.

"Run, it's on fire!"

Ding Jiayi yelled and immediately brought the two back to their senses.

He Niang's eyes changed, she raised her head and looked out the window, and she saw a fire, her face turned pale.

"Girl... What, what's going on here?" Hong Yi was also quite frightened, and asked with a trembling voice.

Ding Jiayi didn't have time to explain, so he threw two pieces of clothes for them from the side, and without waiting for them to put them on, he dragged them and ran outside.

"Girl, there is a well in the yard!" He Niang said, already fully awake, putting on her coat quickly.

"It's too late. I'm afraid the fire is not small. With the strength of the three of us, we can't put it out at all. Now we can only escape first and let shopkeeper Sun find someone to put out the fire." Ding Jiayi shook his head, and the speed of his feet was not slow at all. .

At this time, she was very thankful that she did not live in the era when women had to bind their feet, otherwise they would not even be able to run.

As soon as Ding Jiayi said this, the three hurriedly ran towards the Crescent Gate connecting the inn.

For the sake of secrecy, the location of this small courtyard is quite a distance from the inn, but at this time it has become a big trouble.

Ding Jiayi was out of breath halfway through the run, and her speed also slowed down. Although her physical strength has improved a bit due to dancing practice during this period, her physical fitness is too poor, and she can't do it after only running for a while.

Hong was so anxious that she didn't see her feet in a panic, tripped over something, and fell to the ground with a "plop".

When she fell, Ding Jiayi who was pulling her was immediately implicated, and both of them fell on the bluestone slab full of ashes at the same time, making their faces ashamed.

Ding Jiayi struggled to get up, but suddenly felt a burning pain in his hand. When he looked down, he realized that he accidentally touched a burning bush.

Hastily put out the fire in his hands, Ding Jiayi looked back, and saw that the trees in the entire small courtyard were engulfed in flames, and they were about to approach the main house where they lived, and they would catch up with them in a short while.

"Girl, go away, leave me alone..."

Hongyi was also injured, her clothes were torn to pieces while running, and her face was covered in black ashes. She also saw the fire behind her, and hurriedly pushed Ding Jiayi up.

"What nonsense! Why don't you get up soon?" Ding Jiayi was very annoyed when she heard Hongyi's words, and reached out to pull her.

Although they didn't get along for a long time, she couldn't help but watch Hongyi be buried in a sea of ​​flames!

Hongyi is only 14 years old, she is just as splendid as a flower, it is unfortunate enough to be sold into a brothel, is it possible that she will lose her young life as well?

Strong anger arose in Ding Jiayi's heart, and he didn't know where the strength came from. He pulled Hongyi up and shouted sharply: "Remember, don't give up easily at any time! Hongyi!"

Ding Jiayi's stern drink was like a booster shot into Hongyi's heart, and her eyes immediately became wet.

For a few taels of silver, her biological parents sold herself into the Fengyan Building regardless of her life or death. She originally thought that her fate would be the same as that of the other girls in the building. girl.

The appearance of Ding Jiayi can be said to have changed the fate of Hongyi and Lanxin. Hongyi has always been very grateful, but now, Ding Jiayi has not given up on her at the critical moment of life and death, which makes Hongyi even more excited and speechless.

Ding Jiayi didn't know that it was precisely because of the fire she encountered tonight that Hongyi devoted herself wholeheartedly to her, and it was also because of Hongyi's existence that she escaped the greatest catastrophe of life and death in the future.

The fire here was finally noticed, and when shopkeeper Sun brought people over worried and scared, he happened to see Ding Jiayi and the three of them walking towards this side, supporting each other.

The three women, of different ages, were dressed in ragged clothes and looked embarrassed. Their bodies were covered in black and ash. For some reason, they gave people a shocking feeling.

Shopkeeper Sun couldn't help being stunned for a moment, but quickly put aside this weird feeling, hurriedly asked someone to bring some coats, and ran over in person.

"Hey, my girl... It's a good thing you're okay, otherwise the little one would have to die!"

Shopkeeper Sun carefully put the coat on Ding Jiayi, covering her exposed skin.

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Sun."

Ding Jiayi smiled at Shopkeeper Sun. At this time, her face was black and white, and her long hair was messy, but this smile made everything around her pale.

Shopkeeper Sun was stunned, only Ding Jiayi's smile was in his eyes and mind.

Under the darkness of night, the flames danced and circled behind her, and the woman's back was straight. Although she looked embarrassed, she gave off a powerful aura.

Those eyes, which were as bright as the stars, turned their heads to look at the flames behind them, and there was a faint sneer at the corner of their mouths, like elves dancing in the dark night, with a charming aura.
