Chapter 54

"Let's go. If the fire is under control, we can't save people." Pei Shuo urged.

"What's that..." ah Yao said in a trembling voice. Following her fingers, they looked at it. The yard guard shoveled soil on the spot and scattered it on the fire. More than a dozen people shoveled it one by one and dug out the pit very quickly.

However, this is not the key. Under the light of the fire, the heat wave made the housekeeper's nursing home sweat like rain. The sweat wet his clothes. Every shovel of soil flew into the fire and seemed to have something strange.

She had a bad feeling.

With the excavation of the pit, a stiff little hand was buried under the soil, hanging his wrist, like inserted in it, showing a faint white place.

Pei Chuan gnashed his teeth: "it's just that the foreign councillor Lang dared to ignore human life and have no king's law. We'll meet Pei Yang and them as soon as possible!"

He thought it was the LV family who sent people down at will or something else, but what ah Yao thought was what the wing girl said to her and the original owner's purpose of escaping.

Once he realized what it was, the sudden visual impact made a Yao's stomach churn, turn around and retch, and want to spit all the food in her stomach.

Time is pressing. If you go one step late, those poor children will become bones in the pit.

A Yao knows the weight. Even if she feels uncomfortable in her stomach, she tries to force herself to shift her goal, but Pei Shuo's reaction makes her heart "click" miss a beat, and the secret road is not good.

Pei Shuo looked at the side. The servants there were afraid that they would see terrible scenes if they dug deeper. They buried them in a hurry and continued to shovel soil to put out the fire in another place.

The light on Pei Shuo's face was dim, just like his heart, not confused, not too frightened, his eyes were burning, and the corners of his mouth were slightly aroused, as if... Had aroused his strong curiosity.

A Yao is upset. This is by no means a child's reaction.

Whether it's the fire or the earth... Neither is a good thing!

A Yao rubbed her stomach to ease her discomfort, stepped on the steps, tiptoed to cover Pei Shuo's eyes, trembled, and even begged in a tone she didn't notice: "don't look, Pei Shuo, we don't look, don't think."

Um.

Pei Shuo snorted from his nose.

A Yao tried to calm herself, but her teeth trembled and didn't speak quickly: "how do we meet Peiyang? These animals held a sacrificial ceremony in the front yard and counted the time! "

Pei wears high and looks at a Yao. The little girl is surprisingly calm, but the situation of the two children is obviously not suitable to stay in the LV family. With the passage of time, who knows what terrible things will emerge behind, "... I'll send a signal to Peiyang to take you back to the Inn and leave the rest to us."

He took out the signal bomb. Pei Shuo removed a Yao's hand from his eyes and held it tightly. The other hand pressed peichuan.

"No, let's go."

Pei Shuo ordered that his cool eyebrows and eyes overlapped with the dignified appearance of the founding Hou.

Pei Chuang went back in a trance to the time when they fought in the army. The barbarians were defeated. The sun was like blood outside the city wall. The enemy's flag was folded on the battlefield and covered with sand like rags. The vast Gobi desert, the barbarians retreated.

Their general, Pei Shuo's father and founding Hou Pei Zhengwen, also condensed his face and issued inviolable orders.

"Yes!" Pei wears and listens to the order and never mentions it back to the inn.

"Ah Yao, don't be afraid. We'll be fine."

Pei Shuo is more comforting. Ah Yao's inner unease is becoming more and more intense. It's ok if you don't mention it. How can you feel that a huge and bright flag is slowly rising!

Lu's front yard.

Behind the screen wall, the offering table was set up, the jade pot was filled with good wine, and there were three wine glasses. The incense burner had already been filled with incense, which was prayed by the LV family and their dependents. The Taoist priest with white hair and young face held a peach wood sword in his hand and rubbed the pattern of the sword body repeatedly with his fingers. He was surprised. There was also a copper cast gourd shaped alchemy furnace on the table. The alchemy furnace could be held by two people. If you want to lift it, even four strong men can lift a furnace leg each, so that they can't lift it with enough strength.

It was such a heavyweight Dan stove, but the Taoist priest could easily let him fly in and fall obediently in the front yard.

When he first came, the LV family was still skeptical, but he assured them that he could offer sacrifices to heaven and pray for rain for them. This was heard by the magistrate of Jiangliu county. He made the decision to bring the village heads of four townships and eight counties affected by the drought, such as Renguang Temple and Jiangcun, to the ceremony.

The eight mahogany carved doors of the hall were all open. These people watched the Taoist stepping on the eight trigrams and waving the mahogany sword. It didn't take long. The wind began to blow in the front yard. The wind rustled the leaves and rolled the dead leaves.

The wind surged and the clouds moved, and the glow of the lunar halo could no longer spread the hazy beauty through the clouds. The moon was overshadowed by dark clouds.

"Look, the moon is blocked by dark clouds!" One of the guests found that the dark clouds gathered at an unknown time. It was so dark that it would rain immediately, and said in surprise.

"Taoist priest, it's amazing." Several village chiefs raised their thumbs one after another and looked back and forth between the Taoist priest and the sky. Some looked eagerly at the sky and looked forward to the rain.

Rain soon, so as to alleviate the drought these days. The water volume of the East Lake is much lower than before. The streams flowing out of the mountains are cut off. For example, Nanxun county can still rely on the water storage capacity of the East Lake and Nanxun River, but it's difficult in the mountains.

LV Yuanwai listened to the compliments of the guests and was complacent.

The fat and thin monks were also included in the list. The middle-aged monk looked at the Taoist's actions and scoffed. In his eyes, the Taoist is a peer, but he is a poor scholar and tenant farmer, while the Taoist is a more senior squire than him. He is not as good as the Taoist.

On the other hand, a Yao and Pei Shuo meet Pei Bo smoothly.

They hid by the wall of the footman's room not far from the front yard. The most dangerous place is the safest place. The shadow of the house and the nearby rockery are convenient to cover their tracks. Due to the large number of guests tonight, the LV family sent out all the people who can use them to ensure safety. On the contrary, the number of people in the footman's room is the least.

They had a brief exchange of views.

A Yao said, "as far as I know, in addition to 15 pairs of boys and girls, more than a dozen children older than peishuo are also locked up."

Pei Bu sketched a picture on the ground with branches: "this is the distribution of seats in the front hall. The county magistrate and Constable of Jiangliu county have also come. There are several township squires and village heads. They all pray for the rain of the Taoist priest."

Pei Shuo thought: "since the county magistrate and the constable are here, you don't have to run to the Yamen to beat the drum. The work of punishing evil and promoting good should be returned to them. Seeing is believing without any proof."

"What are you going to do?"

"We just sneaked in and made a small fire to stop it. Unexpectedly, we still failed to attract attention here. This time I'm going to make something big!"
