Behind Xie Lingqin, the scent of fireworks filled the air.
Oh no, these bastards are playing with fire!
Xie Lingqin turned her head and saw a raging fire behind her. The path was surrounded by stone walls, and in the blink of an eye, it reached a high temperature, with thick smoke filling the air.
This forced her to go up to the stands, and there was nothing around to put out the fire.
Xie Lingqin bit her lip, put her veil back on, and immediately rushed forward.
"Ah, good, good..."
As Xie Lingqin appeared on the stands, thunderous applause erupted once again.
Xie Lingqin wore a veil, but it couldn't hide her graceful and slender figure and her aloof temperament.
"Why is it a woman?"
"Ahhh, the boss is really determined to give us a good show today."
"Okay, okay, I'll add more."
"You...you...you're down...."
Liu Yunzhou finally regained his senses.
Xie Lingqin glared at him angrily, "Thanks to you, the opportunity to escape was delayed. They used fire to attack, how could I not come in?"
Looking in the direction Xie Lingqin had come from, Liu Yunzhou saw that there was indeed a cloud of fire and mist. However, the platform was surrounded by iron pillars on all sides, and due to the angle, no one except the three of them and the wild beasts on the platform could see it.
"elder sister."
Ning Yi looked very guilty.
"Ah, Xie Lingqin..."
Ning Xiucai, who was in the iron cage and blocked by iron pillars, saw Xie Lingqin also appearing on the stands being attacked by wild beasts, and his face fell.
Although she was wearing a veil, he recognized her clothes.
Although Xie Danling had received General Xie's order to leave the mansion, he was still in a bad mood because of Xie Lingyu's matter. So when several of his classmates' children invited him here, he was only there to take a look, since it was his first time here.
But upon arrival, he was shocked by the bloodshed and found it boring. Just as he was feeling utterly bored, he unexpectedly saw Liu Yunzhou appear below the stands. Although he was far away and his face was a little swollen, he recognized him and quickly pulled the classmate next to him aside.
However, they were all too excited to watch, saying he was making a fool of himself. Who was Liu Yunzhou? How could he possibly be in that prison?
Just as he was explaining why no one believed him, his older sister, Xie Lingqin, appeared in the stands.
Moreover, in the blink of an eye, the three of them were surrounded and attacked by several tigers and wolves.
"Something's happened, something's happened, big sister..."
Xie Danling shouted down from the window of the private room on the second floor.
However, it was too noisy, and Xie Lingqin couldn't hear it at all.
"What...what should we do?" Liu Yunzhou had never seen such a scene in his life. He was already hoarse from shouting. He had been yelling that he was Liu Yunzhou, the Imperial Censor, but no one paid any attention to him.
Not far from the stands, the fat boss even instigated the commotion, making it so loud that his voice was barely audible.
Xie Lingqin looked at Liu Yunzhou and said, "What do you mean, 'what to do'? They're determined to kill us. These prison doors are made of copper and steel, they can't be broken. Just endure it, endure it until someone comes to rescue us."
"ah?"
Liu Yunzhou's legs were trembling, but seeing Xie Lingqin's expression remained unchanged, he calmed down a bit. "If I live, I will definitely tear this place down."
"Let's talk about it when you're still alive."
Almost as soon as Xie Lingqin spoke, he pulled Liu Yunzhou away from an attack by a wolf.
These wolves were clearly starving, which is why they were so eager to see them.
With their snow-white teeth, drooling, and pungent stench, look at these "delicious" creatures.
Wild beast, boy, beauty, gentleman.
This is an unprecedentedly spectacular show.
Ning Xiucai wasn't stupid; he came up with an idea. Yes, if they cut off the fire in that alley, Xie Lingqin and the others could come out the way they came.
right.
He stumbled to his feet, slid down the cage, and instantly found himself back in the dungeon.
Inside the dungeon, standing neatly in rows were the people he had just released, covered in wounds, clearly having experienced similar things to Ning Yi.
At this moment, everyone was looking at Ning Xiucai, blocking his way.
"Why haven't you left yet? Didn't I tell you to run?" Ning Xiucai said, pushing them away. "I have to go save people, I have to go next door, I can't talk to you anymore, take care."
"Together."
To everyone's surprise, those people grabbed Ning Xiucai and, with unusual determination, said in unison, "Together."
Ning Xiucai was taken aback, his expression urgent. He didn't have time to think, and nodded, "Okay, come with me."
At that moment, dozens of people followed Ning Xiucai to the next room.
However, with such a big incident occurring, the shop owner next door was naturally not one to be trifled with and had already made preparations.
So, as soon as the door opened, dozens of tall and strong men rushed in with swords, and in an instant, they were fighting.
Ning Xiucai didn't know martial arts, and he relied entirely on the people around him to protect him so that he wouldn't get even more bruised and swollen.
...
Xie Danling had already left the private room and gone downstairs. Looking around, she heard that the fighting here was unusual. She imagined the escape route she had seen from the private room on the second floor and then slipped into the next room.
The door opened, and the roars of countless wild beasts nearly shattered one's eardrums.
Meanwhile, those who were adding fuel to the fire saw Xie Danling suddenly burst in. After exchanging glances, one of them left to watch the fire, while the others stepped forward and drew their swords, their killing intent undisguised.
Xie Danling also knew some martial arts, and with a frosty expression, she said, "Who are you? Put out the fire quickly! Inside are the eldest son of the Liu family and the eldest daughter of the General's family. If something happens, can you take responsibility?"
