"Princess!! Be careful of the fire!"
In Luofo Temple, a beam broke with a bang! Countless sparks flew as it fell!
Gu Qingsheng was wearing a wet cloak and hiding in the corner of the room with Bai Lu. He was frightened by the loud noise and shrank back into the corner.
She kept coughing, and thick smoke kept coming into her mouth and nose. Her brain seemed to be lacking oxygen, and she kept forcing herself to stay awake.
The door of the room was blocked from the outside, which was done intentionally by someone.
When the fire broke out, Bai Lu ran in and informed her that there was a fire in Luofo Temple and asked her to run quickly. Gu Qingsheng, who was already alert about this matter, had not yet taken off his clothes. When he was about to run out with Bai Lu, the door was suddenly slammed shut!
When they ran to the door, they could only see a black shadow through the side of the door.
Gu Qingsheng completely understood how desperate the sound of the room being locked was in this fire-filled night.
After that, no matter how they shouted, there was no movement outside.
I also tried to hit the door with a bench, but this Luofo Temple is a national temple, and all the wood is very strong. Even if I smashed the chair legs, the door would not budge.
This made them huddle in the corner, and they remained in this predicament until the fire came.
The person who locked them up wanted to let them burn to death.
"Hurry up, is there anyone here? Is there anyone here?"
Bai Lu shouted at the top of her lungs, but there was no response except the sound of the entire temple being engulfed in flames.
The whole room was extremely hot and stuffy. Gu Qingsheng was sweating profusely and exhaling continuously.
The fire was like a bloodthirsty beast, and the ground beneath their feet was already scorching red.
It seemed like someone was getting closer step by step. Gu Qingsheng shrank his body, but he was thinking in his mind who was trying to harm him again and again.
It was obvious that I didn't have any hatred at that time.
How could that be.
"Princess...Princess, don't be afraid, I will protect you..."
Bai Lu trembled and hugged Gu Qingsheng.
This was the first time she had encountered such a thing. She didn't know what to do for a moment and could only stand in front of Gu Qingsheng to try to share some of the damage.
In Bai Lu's arms, there was also a smell of black smoke. Gu Qingsheng coughed a few times, and his throat seemed to be numb. However, this embrace was gentle, allowing Gu Qingsheng to lean against it, and then patted Bai Lu's back to comfort her.
"It's okay, someone will come to rescue us... cough... don't worry, we won't die in a place like this."
However, these words obviously seemed untenable in the face of the scene before her. Bai Lu just trembled and gritted her teeth, hugging Gu Qingsheng tighter.
Gu Qingsheng felt a little regretful. Someone had clearly informed him that there would be a fire in Luofo Temple, but why didn't he take it seriously and take action at the time? Why did he have to wait and see what happened?
The doors and windows were closed, and the smoke in the house could not circulate out. Gu Qingsheng's cloak had been turned black by the smoke.
Bai Lu was obviously unable to hold on any longer, her eyes drooped, and she was like a bow and arrow stretched beyond her means, her consciousness gradually fading away from her.
Because water was sprinkled around them, they would not be burned by the fire for the time being, but the feeling of strong smoke circulating in their bodies was really terrible, as if it was devouring their internal organs.
Just when Gu Qingsheng thought she was going to die here, Xu Qingyi's figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
That noble posture and the faint smile when touching her hair.
It's a pity that the last time I saw Xu Qingyi was when he was helping me out in the yard. Both of us felt alienated, cold and sad.
If possible, she really wanted to look at Xu Qingyi again.
All that family and national hatred really doesn't matter anymore.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingsheng felt a little sore in his nose, and the things in his vision became more and more blurred.
I felt dizzy and was about to fall to the ground at any time.
This is probably what it feels like to be dying...
"Kyomori!"
In the fire, outside the door, a clear cry made Gu Qingsheng raise his head, his eyes could no longer open, the door was smashed open by Peng, and a figure appeared outside.
"Kiyomori! How are you!?"
"Xu...Qingyi..."
Gu Qingsheng muttered something and was about to stand up to look at the door, but when he regained consciousness, he saw that figure.
Willow is tired of autumn.
"...Mr. Liu."
Gu Qingsheng didn't know why he felt this sense of loss, and the corners of his mouth stiffened.
It was obvious that Liu Yanqiu had heard what she had just said.
In the fire, in front of Gu Qingsheng, Liu Yanqiu stopped, and a trace of barely perceptible sadness flashed across his eyes.
Finally someone came to rescue them. Bai Lu relaxed her mind and fainted in Gu Qingsheng's arms.
"Bai Lu!"
Gu Qingsheng yelled, and it was this yell that brought Liu Yanqiu back to his senses. He covered his mouth and nose and stretched out his hand towards Gu Qingsheng.
"Can you still stand up? Go!"
Supporting Bai Lu on his shoulders, Gu Qingsheng wanted to stand up, but his legs were weak and he couldn't move.
She gritted her teeth and put her hand into Liu Yanqiu's hand, which was then held tightly and pulled up.
The temperature in his palm was hotter than the fire. The force made Gu Qingsheng fall into Liu Yanqiu's arms, and he barely managed to stand by supporting Bai Lu.
She coughed, not noticing Liu Yanqiu's complicated expression.
"Mr. Liu, let's get out quickly."
“…Let’s go.”
Liu Yanqiu turned his body to the side and covered Gu Qingsheng and Bai Lu with his outer coat.
Stepping over the burnt and rotten pillars, the fire around them crackled.
Just as he took a step out of the door, he thought he would be saved, but at the moment he took a step out, a silver blade fell from the sky!
The cold light flashed, and it seemed to cut the fire in half!
Liu Yanqiu's eyes flashed coldly at that moment! He attacked so quickly that Gu Qingsheng didn't even see clearly before he was pushed to the ground and separated from Liu Yanqiu!
The outer garment he was wearing was split in two by the blade! They separated in time, otherwise Gu Qingsheng would have suffered the same fate as the outer garment.
Gu Qingsheng was pushed to the ground. He was still a little nervous because of the attack just now. He clutched his chest and looked back at the woman in black who attacked him. She was shaking off the cloth that had just been chopped by her sword.
“He actually dodged…”
The woman in black muttered to herself, her eyes fixed on Liu Yanqiu, who was standing beside her. A light of scrutiny shone in her narrowed eyes.
"Who are you?"
This woman is different from the three women in black that I met in the outer courtyard. Her aura alone is twice as strong as theirs.
Liu Yanqiu's brows twitched and he gritted his teeth.
