Chapter 200: Buried in Fire
"Put it on your face and try it." Lin Baoer said.
The short man really put the mask on his face out of curiosity. Because Lin Baoer exchanged for a small one, the mask looked particularly tight on his face, squeezing the flesh on his cheeks out.
"Then you untie the tube to the mask." Lin Baoer said to the tall man.
The tall man studied it for a long time with half belief and half doubt, and finally connected the oxygen cylinder and the mask together.
"Then what?" he asked.
Lin Baoer explained, looking at the bundle of straw in the corner of the small dark room, and pursed her lips: "Light it up and put it in front of him." The
tall man did it suspiciously. After the straw was lit, it emitted a thick and pungent smoke, which made the tall man unable to open his eyes. He stretched out his hand and put it in front of the short man.
Seeing this, the short man said in surprise: "Brother! I can't smell this smoke!"
The tall man's eyes flashed with surprise, and he simply pulled off the mask on his face and put it on his own face.
The short man who had the mask pulled off instantly inhaled a mouthful of thick smoke and coughed continuously.
"Cough cough cough...Brother, what are you doing?!"
On the other hand, the tall man, after putting on the mask, showed surprise on his face.
At this time, Lin Baoer slowly explained: "The one in your hand is called an oxygen bottle. As the name suggests, it provides oxygen. In the water or in the thick smoke just now, with this, you can breathe fresh air without being affected by the outside world."
"And this bottle can allow people to breathe for half an hour in the water or in the thick smoke."
What is the concept of half an hour?
The tall man was instantly excited and looked at the oxygen bottle in his hand in disbelief.
For people like them who live on the edge of a knife, this thing is enough to save their lives at a critical moment.
"I have never seen this in the world. How do you have this?" The tall man's voice rose a few centimeters.
Moreover, he had never seen the materials of these two things before, as if they appeared out of thin air.
Lin Baoer moved her wrist and showed an innocent smile on her face, "Because I'm not from here?"
"What?" The tall man didn't react.
Lin Baoer didn't intend to keep answering them. When she told them what these two things were, she had already had the intention to kill them.
Although she didn't know who sent these two people, but looking at their initial preparations and words, she knew that their purpose was to kill her.
It was not enough to burn down Changqing Palace, but she also went to great lengths to send two assassins to surround and kill her, which proved that she might have exposed her abilities in front of others, which aroused jealousy.
So no matter what, these two people cannot live!
Before the two could react, Lin Baoer pointed her right hand at the short man beside her and smiled harmlessly, "I said, I am not from this world, do you understand?"
The sleeve arrow instantly hit her face, and the short man was so scared that he quickly dodged.
But because the distance was too close, his face was still cut open, and blood was oozing out.
"Fuck!"
"Damn it! Kill her!"
The two finally reacted, threw away the things in their hands, and slashed at her with knives.
Lin Baoer was not afraid at all, smiled slightly, and threw the explosive bomb that had been hidden in her hand at the two.
Looking at the oncoming black stone, the two people who were extremely angry did not avoid it at all, but just swung their knives to chop it open.
But at the moment of contact.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Two huge noises echoed throughout the small dark room, and at the same time there were wailing and screaming.
"Oh my hand! It hurts! What is this?!"
"My stomach! Stomach! Help!..."
The two people were bleeding from the explosion, and they lay on the ground rolling and wailing, with blood all over the ground.
Lin Baoer looked at this scene indifferently, her right hand trembling slightly, trying to calm her heartbeat.
She is no longer a modern person, and can no longer use the law that prohibits killing to restrain herself. In this world, her own safety is the most important.
After calming down, Lin Baoer walked to the two dying people, sent them on their way with the last two crossbow arrows, and then left without looking back.
…
The dark sky gradually revealed its white belly, and half of the sky in the morning light became hotter under the illumination of the fire, like a rare fire cloud, gorgeous and dangerous.
The Changqing Palace, which had been burning all night, was almost in ruins and desolate.
The moment the fire was extinguished, a group of people ran into the ruins, searching everywhere, hoping to see hope.
But no matter how they searched, they couldn't find what they wanted.
Outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the four members of the Lin family who had been waiting anxiously all night seemed to have foreshadowed something. The initial anxiety and uneasiness disappeared, leaving only the numb silence and grief.
"Lord Lin, I am sorry for your condolences."
The chief eunuch beside the emperor walked up to them and whispered comfort, with pity in his eyes.
"His Majesty said that even if you stop breaking into the palace, the royal family will compensate you..."
Lin Qiming could not hear the rest of the words. He just closed his eyes in pain, his body shaking as if he was about to fall. "
Bao'er..."
His Bao'er...
Lin Zhiyu and the others had red eyes. Their bearded and haggard faces could not hide the grief and scarlet in their eyes. This result, like a bolt from the blue, almost broke their hearts. " I don't believe it... I don't believe it..." Lin Ruqian staggered and shook his head, "I don't believe Bao'er will die... She is so powerful, she must still be alive..." "I want to find her myself!" As he said that, he ran towards the direction of the thick smoke, but he was stopped by the guards before he took two steps. "The harem is a restricted area, no men are allowed to enter." "What about me?" Lin Mobai clenched his fists, raised his head, and looked at him calmly and coldly, "As the Lieutenant General, can I go in and investigate the fire?"
The guard wanted to speak again but was stopped by the chief eunuch.
The chief eunuch looked uncomfortable and nodded, "Of course."
Lin Mobai didn't care about anything else and walked straight in.
Only after he arrived outside the Changqing Palace did Lin Mobai slowly slow down his pace, with disbelief and grief in his eyes.
In addition to the Changqing Palace, the other courtyards around were also burned to ashes, without an inch of soil or a tree left.
In this way, can Lin Baoer survive?
He was not as determined as before, he just felt like the sky was falling, his mind was full of Lin Baoer's usual smiling face, which made him miserable.
"Second Young Master!" Qinglian found him and trotted over with red eyes.
Lin Mobai didn't look at her, still staring at the ruins for a long time, veins popping out on his forehead, "Where's my mother?"
His voice was very calm.
Qinglian sobbed, "Madam was too sad and passed out. She was placed in the nearest Huarong Palace."
