Mu Yong set out yesterday morning. Calculating the time, he should have arrived in Lingyang county.
By this time, Fang Yuan should have learned the news and should be trying to mobilize the army.
If he could hurry up, he might be able to get here tonight.
"I hope he can hurry up. I'm afraid the people here have lost their patience."
Mu Yu said.
Liu Jin has heard from him about Mu Yong's report. At this time, she is also looking forward to Fang Yuan and Mu Yong's arrival earlier.
The soldiers outside seemed sleepy, except that from time to time someone shot a cold arrow to try if they could hit a man with their luck.
In their opinion, these five people are already trapped here. They can't run anyway, and they are not afraid.
Mu Yu and others can also have a good rest. They were very tired after fighting for so long last night.
At this time, Liu Jin's nose sniffed.
"Do you smell anything strange?"
Little nail and Gao Dajun sniffed hard and found nothing.
"In addition to the smell, it's still the smell."
Gao Dajun said.
Mu Yu opened his eyes and looked at Liu Jin.
"It's like pine oil."
Liu Jin also nodded. That's what she smelled.
"No, they poured turpentine in to burn us."
Mu Zhong guarded the outside. After smelling the smell, he could almost see the pine oil spreading all the way.
This is no joke. If so much pine oil is lit, it will definitely burn them to death.
"Come on, pile the soil."
After Mu Yu reacted, he immediately said to several people.
The five men quickly dug the ground with their hands or wooden swords to cover the turpentine.
"No, there's too much turpentine to cover." After Liu Jin found something wrong, she quickly shouted to Mu Yu.
"Divide the road and intercept. One person pulls a ridge of soil, which can isolate as much as possible. The terrain of this cave is no lower than that of the outside, which can be blocked."
Mu Zhong immediately dug the soil on both sides of the cave wall and laid it on the ground, like pulling a wall.
When Gao Dajun saw them, he quickly grabbed the stone locks and lined up to block the pine oil. The gap is buried with soil.
But no matter what, turpentine still penetrated and spread into the cave.
"It can't be blocked, drainage." Seeing that the situation was not very optimistic, Liu Jin shouted to Mu Yu.
After hearing this, Mu Yu immediately reacted and plowed a gully on the ground with wood and a gully on one side of the cave wall.
He tried his best to dig the gully. Liu Jin also deepened the gully with a dagger in order to burn turpentine into the gully and leave such a safe place.
When the five were trying hard, Mu Zhong shouted, "fire is coming, withdraw."
He ran inside with Gao Dajun and a small nail, fought with Mu Yu and Liu Jin, and the five returned to the inside of the cage.
The fire burned in front of us in an instant. The soil ridge before that can't stop for long. It was the last drainage gully that led the fire to the side.
When they saw that there was a raging fire before and after, only this small space was left. They couldn't help but hiss.
"Everyone tore off their clothes. I have water here." Gao Dajun shouted. The fire here will soon have thick smoke. If you keep breathing thick smoke, you will soon be choked to death.
Everyone knew this truth and soon covered their mouth and nose with wet cloth towels.
All five squatted and looked at each other.
Mu Yu covered his nose with one hand and took Liu Jin with the other.
"Maybe we're going to die here." Mu Yu looked at Liu Jin and said softly.
Liu Jin nodded. Mu Yong probably couldn't catch up at this time, and Fang Yuan's army couldn't arrive in time.
If they burn here for most of the day, they may choke to death.
"Marry me, will you?"
Mu Yu said to Liu Jin at this time.
His eyes were almost closed by the smoke, but he still tried to see Liu Jin clearly.
"It's time for you to say that."
Liu Jin looked at Mu Yu and couldn't understand what Mu Yu thought.
Now I'm dying. What's the use of saying this.
"If you marry me, even if you die, we are husband and wife. Maybe we can continue this life in the next life."
Mu Yu said to Liu Jin.
"Young boss, just promise. You can't escape here. It's also a good wish."
Gao Dajun said quickly.
Small nail and Mu Zhong also persuaded Liu Jin to agree.
Seeing this, Liu Jin smiled bitterly and said, "there is no matchmaker's words and parents' orders. Is it too casual?"
"That's easy. I'll be the matchmaker." Gao Dajun said.
Mu Zhong and little nail looked at each other. Can't they be the "parents" of the two masters?
"In special circumstances, don't be too formal. There are many couples in the world who want to die together, but they can't do it." The little nail continued to persuade.
"Yes, not to live on the same day, but to die on the same day." Mu Zhong doesn't speak very well. What he says at this time is a bit Jianghu.
After hearing this, Liu Jin looked at Mu Yu, who was waiting for Liu Jin with a serious face.
"OK, I promise you. We have no chance in this life, and we will continue in the afterlife."
Mu Yu smiled and reached out to take Liu Jin into his arms.
"Madam, are you afraid?"
After hearing this, Liu Jin was slightly stunned, then shook her head, "I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid of anything with you."
Mu Yu smiled, and then, regardless of others nearby, bowed his head and kissed Liu Jin's lips.
The other three didn't see jokes. At the moment of life and death, the two people's feelings were vigorous, which made them envy.
"Cough." After kissing, Liu Jin took two deep breaths and was choked by the soot.
"No, master. The fire was burning all the time. There was no wind in it. All the smoke and dust filled the cave."
Murzhong said, looking at Muru and waiting for Muru's order.
With their Kung Fu, if they try their best to rush out, they may be able to save their lives.
But how to deal with the soldiers after they rushed out?
Mu Yu shook his head. Although he had the best Kung Fu, he couldn't rush out unharmed.
If you are injured at that time, you will only die more miserable.
Moreover, he can't leave Liu Jin. He would rather be trapped here with Liu Jin.
Time goes by.
Everything that could be burned in the cave was burned except five of them.
The place where they stayed was far from the source of fire, and the fire could not burn over, and they could not go out.
Liu Jin and other five people were breathing more and more heavily. Not only did they have more smoke and dust, but they felt that no matter how much they inhaled, it was not enough.
