Chapter 303: Everything is worth it to get Senior Sister
Luoxia City lives up to its name, the sunset scenery is picturesque.
As soon as Deng Youning and his group checked into the inn, Han Xian rushed over on horseback.
Han Xian had received a letter from Deng Yan'an a long time ago and knew that they were going back to Dongji. After briefly explaining the matters at the Han family, he thought about coming to pick them up.
Coincidentally, the two sides met in Luoxia City.
After Luoxia City, you will reach Liangcheng in just two cities.
Counting the time, the journey will take no longer than five days.
The Deng brothers and sisters traveled along the way and it took them only so many days.
Looking at the scenery along the way, Deng Youning felt much better.
I can also temporarily put aside my longing for Li Tianzhuo.
"Brother Deng, cousin Ning, why didn't the King of Changle come back with you?"
Han Xian, who didn't know what Li Tianzhuo had done in Yuncheng, asked curiously.
"Him! When I mention him, I hate to ..."
Deng Yan'an put away the rosary hanging on his palm, slammed the table hard, and spoke in a low voice.
If Deng Youning hadn't stopped him in time, he would have insisted on explaining the whole thing.
"It's nothing. Ah Zhuo is the Prince of Changle after all. Nan Xin still has a lot of things to deal with. Let's go back to Dongji and wait for him. He will be back soon."
Deng Youning knew Han Xian's feelings for her. In order to prevent Han Xian from wasting his time on her, she specifically stated that Li Tianzhuo would be back soon.
She also believed that Li Tianzhuo would come back to her sooner or later.
It was getting late today, so Han Xian also asked for a room and stayed in the inn.
We plan to set off early tomorrow morning.
Deng Youning and Ying Shi, master and servant, shared a room.
Deng Yan'an, Xiu Ming and Han Xian each had a room.
But unfortunately, because Han Xian checked in late, his room was not on the same floor as the other four rooms.
Li Tianzhuo's secret guards and the soldiers of the Han family army were guarding around the inn.
At midnight, the inn was pitch black and filled with snoring.
Yuan Gu, who had long been eyeing Deng Youning and his group, entered from the back door of the inn with ill intentions.
"These banknotes are enough to buy your entire inn!"
He gave the innkeeper a large stack of banknotes, and the innkeeper, along with his family and the inn's waiter, hurriedly ran away.
Now, the only people left in the inn are the guests staying there.
"Take away all those who are related to Princess Dongji. If the others are not dead, send them to the Reconstruction Building."
Yuan Gu instructed his subordinates.
"My dear, those people from Prince Changle and the Dongji Han family outside have all been dealt with."
"It was quite difficult. We lured it away and solved the problem. Nearly sixty of our brothers were killed or injured!"
It took nearly sixty of them to deal with less than ten secret guards and only one team of Han family soldiers!
Yuan Gu clenched his fists. It was indeed a difficult task.
But even if the loss is great, it's all worth it in order to get my senior sister!
"action!"
He clenched his teeth and waved to everyone.
Everyone threw the tinder on their bodies onto the haystack that had been soaked in wine. A fire quickly started and burned more and more vigorously.
Soon, everyone in the inn reacted and scrambled to escape.
The same goes for Deng Youning and other three.
After they got together, they remembered that Han Xian had not come out yet, so Deng Yan'an went upstairs to look for him regardless of his own safety.
Xiu Ming took Deng Youning and Ying Shi and escaped first.
"Strange, why did it suddenly catch fire?!"
"Where is the shop owner? Why is there no one here?"
"Ahem, ahem, the front and back doors are on fire very badly. Where can we escape?"
Countless guests were also panicked.
Everyone ran to the door and looked at the bigger fire in the yard, no one dared to go out.
Deng Youning and the other two were also in a mess.
"No matter how the fire started, Ah Zhuo's secret guards and the Han family soldiers were guarding outside. It's impossible that they didn't hear any movement!"
Deng Youning calmed down and felt that this anger was particularly strange.
"Never mind all that, let's just think about how to leave! Ahem~"
Xiu Ming kept using his palms to clear away the thick smoke in front of Deng Youning and Ying Shi, and he himself was choking and coughing.
The raging fire crackled and approached the inn little by little from outside.
There were quite a few people around, and the burning fire made the air thin.
Some elderly people have difficulty breathing and are suffocating to death.
Fortunately, Deng Youning had wet her handkerchief with the teapot before coming out, and she and Ying Shi each covered their mouths and noses with one, so they were able to hold on for a while.
"What's going on ahead? Why don't you go out?"
Xiu Ming looked at the endless crowded crowd and muttered impatiently.
"The fire in the yard is even bigger, do you dare to go out?"
The middle-aged man at the side said something unhappily, as if he had already accepted his fate and was waiting to die at any time.
Xiu Ming used his lightness skills to fly to the beam of the house, hoping to try to find another way out, but it was obviously not appropriate.
Deng Youning and Ying Shi also followed up.
"I remember the inn's kitchen was over there. Usually, the kitchen would store several large vats of water for cooking convenience, and the kitchen would have a door leading to the backyard."
"We took the quilts from the house, soaked them in water, put them on our bodies and rushed out."
Deng Youning calmly thought of a solution.
"However, I'm afraid there won't be enough water for everyone here. We can't save anyone else."
Although she felt guilty, at the critical moment, who wouldn't be thinking about saving their own life?
Deng Youning is not a living Bodhisattva. He does not have the ability to save all living beings, nor does he have the leisure time to do so.
"But where are Prince Deng and General Han now?"
Ying Shi didn't notice Deng Yan'an and Han Xian in the crowd.
Deng Youning frowned slightly.
You can ignore other strangers, but you can’t leave the two brothers in the fire.
"Yingshi, come with me and get the quilt wet."
"Xiu Ming, go to the third floor and look for them. Remember, do what you can. If you can't find them, come back as soon as possible. We'll meet in the kitchen."
After Deng Youning made the arrangements, several people took quick action.
She and Yingshi grabbed three quilts, thinking that each of them would use one, leaving the other person alone.
As she had guessed, there was not much water left in the kitchen tank, and it was barely enough to wet their three quilts.
Xiu Ming went up to the third floor. The fire was spreading very quickly. The bricks and tiles were burning and falling down, and even the beams and pillars were almost burned off.
He shouted Deng Yan'an and Han Xian's names and stumbled around searching on Mars.
There seems to be no living people here at the moment.
But soon, he heard a faint gasp.
I thought I would go and check who it was, and found out it was indeed Deng Yan'an.
There was a huge bloody hole in his abdominal cavity, and his entire body was covered in blood, as if he had just fought with someone.
I don’t know what he has been through, and I don’t know where Han Xian is.
"Prince Deng, what are you doing..."
Just as Xiu Ming was about to ask, Deng Yan'an closed his eyes exhaustedly.
He rushed forward and held him up, preventing his body from hitting the ground and getting injured again.
Looking at the crumbling roof, and the corridors and stairs that seemed to have been burned, Xiu Ming decided to take Deng Yan'an away first and not look for Han Xian.
She carried him downstairs quickly and headed straight for the kitchen.
Among the residents gathered downstairs, more and more people were suffocated to death.
Some people who didn't want to wait for death walked out of the inn on their own.
However, they all died in the fire just a few steps outside the door.
The person who started this evil fire had no intention of letting any of them escape alive!
