"Ugh …" Where's the water?
Halfway through the night, Chaxianyu was awoken by her thirst. She squinted her eyes and fumbled to get off the bed, wanting to find the teacup that Xie Xiaolou had prepared for her.
Hm? What was that?
When Chaxianyu passed by the window, he was dazzled by the light. SShe discovered that there was a hill that protruded from the other side of the forest, covered with a layer of furry gold. She rubbed her eyes and looked closer. Oh, it was a flame. Chaxianyu giggled, it was pretty good looking. He yawned and slowly walked back.
Five seconds passed
Xie Xiaolou's eyebrows were scrunched up because of the noise, she closed her eyes tightly, covered her ears and turned her body, don't disturb me … You can't sleep on your own... I'll go outside the door and practice standing on my head...
Chaxianyu exhaled and slapped Xie Xiaolou's butt. I mean, it's on fire! A banquet in the capital! The fire had reached this part of the forest! When Xie Xiaolou heard the two words "Yue Shuang", she became clear-headed. She didn't care about shouting Chaxianyu as she quickly took off her jacket and ran out of the room. Archie, where are you?!
Looking at the direction of Fu Qing Du, the fire was already raging. Xie Xiaolou's forehead slowly broke out in cold sweat; Fire... Could it be that her imagination was running wild when she heard heaven-shaking, earth-shattering footsteps?
The giant with the reddish-brown skin passed through the forest, his tall figure gradually appearing as if he was about to pierce the sky. Above his head, in the darkness of the night, he bent down to the anxious young girl in front of the little grass hut. With a loud noise, the giant kneeled down on one knee and placed her hands on the ground. Xie Xiaolou stepped on his palms, activated her Qing Gong and quickly jumped onto her shoulders. Xie Xiaolou pointed to the distance, his expression flustered and exasperated, was it you? Didn't I tell you not to do anything to hurt people with fire? Why don't you understand...
After being scolded by Xie Xiaolou, Archie looked at the blazing prairie fire with his big eyes, at a loss of what to do. He carefully waited for Xie Xiaolou to finish scolding, extended her hand to scratch the back of her head and then stammered out a patient and slow explanation.
Xie Xiaolou was startled, not you? The giant nodded obediently. Archie … Not doing, not doing what Lou Cheng hates.
Xie Xiaolou thought about it again. That was true, his foolish child had never done anything to harm humans before, and had always remembered his agreement with her. She reached out and touched the giant's rock-hard cheek, her voice apologetic. I'm sorry, Archie, but I was wrong to think so badly of you.
At this time, Chaxianyu, who was gasping for breath, crawled up from the giant's body. Um, aren't we going to put out the fire?
Why go? Xie Xiaolou tilted her head, her expression could not be seen clearly in the dark of the night, and Chaxianyu heard her sneer. If you want Archie to go, that would be nonsense!
Chaxianyu panicked. Just as she was about to pull on Xie Xiaolou's sleeve, she was mercilessly flung away. Xie Xiaolou flew into a rage as she pointed at Chaxianyu's nose and cursed, ponytail, have you gone stupid? Tell me, what is the value of a banquet? She was humiliated by the citizens of the city during the day, and now she wants to be a saint out of compassion?
Chaxianyu couldn't win against her so she miserably twisted her fingers. I know, I know this is ridiculous … But, but …
Xie Xiaolou was very impatient, there were no buts! Come, let's go back to the house and sleep.
Chaxianyu grabbed her and angrily turned his head. Under the moonlight, she saw the girl's unbelievably bright eyes and she froze for a moment. She only heard Chaxianyu say softly, that it was at least … For the innocent children of the city, let Archie fight the fire.
Xie Xiaolou was silent.
Chaxianyu waited for a while, then walked forward a few steps and hugged her who was trembling all over, and said softly, "We can never forgive those adults." We have a right not to forgive. So... Can we go to the fire? In the small building.
Please let Archie save the children.
By the time Xie Xiaolou led Archie to the banquet, the fire in the city had already reached to the last point of the prefectural courtyard. The city gate that had just entered was still burning hot and charred. Screams of agony could be heard incessantly as countless corpses lay on the brightly lit street. Animals rushed out of fences and fled in all directions.
Archie was a fire giant of ancient blood. Every inch of his skin could not only produce and control fire, but could also absorb it. It was like a giant moving flame control device, allowing the flames to freely move about. The fires of man are dear to him.
Archie, put out all the fires. The girl with short golden-brown hair on her shoulders ordered. The giant exhaled hot air and stretched out his palm to brush against the burning city gate tower. The flames instantly disappeared.
He started to walk forward, and every place he went, the fire would whoosh! He disappeared without a trace. The giant continued to walk forward, emitting a thumping sound as he hammered the ground. He walked forward, waving his arms and legs. Gradually, all the buildings that had been touched by the giant ceased to burn, and the ground began to cool down.
The smoky smoke weakened, and the terrifying flames disappeared. Giant continuously sucked the flames into his body, and the raging fire that had engulfed the entire Manchu city finally stopped being arrogant. Under Giant's power, it slowly disappeared.
The people who were running away stood in the open space high above, and they could clearly see that they were each other's informants. They were weak and shivering after the disaster, and they were both scared and lucky, and they couldn't help but kneel and kowtow and pray. Giant, he's actually helping us! I can't believe that the giant who tried to break into the city to eat us... A lot of people were crying their hearts out. AHH! Thank God! "What a miracle!
Chaxianyu was very happy, she said excitedly as she held Xie Xiaolou's hand. If Archie helps the whole city put out the fire, the people will definitely change their minds about Archie. Maybe you and Archie will soon be able to live in the city!
In the city.
That was the dream that Xie Xiaolou had been yearning for day and night, an extravagant hope that had been on her mind since birth. It was a dream that his parents could not mention about while they were still alive, and it faintly hurt. How she wanted to be a normal person and go back to living at the feast. Chaxianyu's words had undoubtedly given her hope, but this gave Xie Xiaolou the illusion that she was starting a new life at a banquet.
When Archie reached the last house in the city, there was no more sparks left. He stopped and Xie Xiaolou and Chaxianyu jumped down, just at this time, a group of people who had survived and came down from the back mountain and surrounded Xie Xiaolou. They looked at each other and said, It's this little girl! I can see very clearly! She was the one who manipulated the giant to extinguish the fire! This was truly amazing! You saved the entire banquet! Some women began to wipe their eyes with their sleeves. It was great to be alive …
Chaxianyu smiled as she watched Xie Xiaolou being surrounded by the crowd, being revered like a peerless hero. After a while, she quietly retreated, turned, and walked down the mountain path. Chaxianyu thought, it seemed that Xie Xiaolou and Archie would be accepted by the common people soon, so she decided to leave and meet up with Shier Hong and the others.
Not far from the crowd, no one noticed a carriage parked there. A corner of the bright red cloth was lifted, and a thick smell of powder mixed with the stench of sweat and groans floated into the air. A lively and fragrant spring scene was playing out inside the carriage. The fat man with distorted facial features was riding on the body of the naked woman, moving rhythmically. As he panted, he observed the giant who was standing behind Xie Xiaolou through the window. Sure enough!
It is not a loss to let go of this fire... Finally, he could obtain the Fire Giant. The man hugged the woman happily and quickened his pace.
