Chapter 214 Embarrassing.
Wei Wenyao made a prompt decision and retreated back to the room, followed by his guards.
"Master, what should we do now?" asked the guard.
Song Yu heard the commotion outside and was about to go out to check the situation when he saw Wei Wen Yao retreat in and close the door.
"What's going on?" Song Yu asked.
-
Fu Zhenghong and the other two waited in the inn for a whole night, but Song Yu did not come back and Qingling was nowhere to be seen.
As soon as the sky was light, they prepared to go to Hulong Villa.
But when we got there, we saw only a charred scene.
The three of them stood at the door, all dumbfounded, not knowing what was going on.
Shen Shuyuan was the first to react. He immediately grabbed a bystander and asked him what was going on.
"You don't know, the entire Huolong Villa was wiped out, and the fire burned all night long. It was so tragic!" said the passerby while shaking his head.
Shen Shuyuan thought he had misheard, so he grabbed the man's collar and asked again, "What did you say? Say it again."
The passerby was startled by his action, then became furious and shouted, "Why are you throwing tantrums at me? The bodies are all in the yard, can't you go and see for yourself? I didn't set the fire."
Ji Qiuyue and Fu Zhenghong also heard what he said, and their expressions were synchronized, shock and disbelief.
The three of them looked at each other and wanted to rush in hurriedly.
But he was stopped by the officials at the door: "Stop, who are you? The government has blocked the road, you are not allowed to enter."
Fu Zhenghong said, "Sir, what's going on? My friend is inside."
"Friend?" The officer heard him speak, a flicker of sympathy flashed across his face, but he still said seriously: "If you want to identify the body, go to the funeral home. We will take care of everything when the time comes."
Although he said this, his expression was hard to describe, because he had seen those corpses. It was more like charcoal than corpses. They were burned so black that it was impossible to tell whether they were male or female.
"What corpse are you talking about? We are looking for a friend, not a corpse." Ji Qiuyue was instantly furious.
His hand was already on the hilt of the sword, as if he was ready to draw it out and fight at any moment.
Fortunately, Shen Shuyuan held her down in time.
Seeing this, the officer was not afraid. He waved his hand and immediately surrounded five or six colleagues, staring at the three men with murderous eyes.
"If you want to cause trouble, get out of the way, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." said the officer.
Ji Qiuyue was pulled away by Shen Shuyuan and Fu Zhenghong.
The three of them avoided the crowd and came to a secluded place.
Ji Qiuyue's eyes were red. She grabbed Shen Shuyuan's sleeve and said anxiously, "Brother, Song Yu, Song Yu will be fine, right?"
Shen Shuyuan held her cold hand and said, "Qiuyue, don't worry. They are not ordinary people. Song Yu is so smart. Besides, Qing Ling may still be following her. He will protect Song Yu. Let's find out what happened last night. Don't panic."
After hearing this, Ji Qiuyue gradually calmed down: "Yes, you are right, Song Yu is so smart, it is impossible for him to die so easily."
The three decided to split up into three groups, each going to investigate the situation and then reunite at the inn.
The events at Hulong Villa were so unbelievable that they spread throughout the streets and alleys within half a day.
After all, the No. 1 Villa, which was famous yesterday, was reduced to ruins overnight.
What is even more sad is that last night, Huolong Villa captured almost all the doctors in the city. Those doctors never returned and became the dead souls in the fire.
All of a sudden, all the pharmacies and clinics on the street hung up mourning gifts.
The daytime is like snow in June.
There are many different opinions on the source of last night's fire.
Some say it is revenge by enemies, some say it is a supernatural event, and some say it is a martial arts dispute.
After all, before this, the incident in which the Qi Tian Sword from the Huolong Villa was almost stolen also caused a lot of uproar.
It is possible that this time the thief, seeing that his theft was fruitless, set fire in a fit of rage, resulting in the harm of innocent people.
Ji Qiuyue and the other two returned to the inn and integrated the information they had collected.
"The cause of this fire is most likely related to Ye Xu. There are a total of 128 bodies burned to death, 32 of whom are doctors in this city, and the rest are from the Huolong Villa. As for Song Yu and others, it has not been confirmed yet." Fu Zhenghong said.
"Then, what should we do next?" Ji Qiuyue said in a hoarse voice.
Fu Zhenghong thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Hulong Villa tonight."
"Why wait until night? Let's go now." Ji Qiuyue said.
Shen Shuyuan came out to explain, "It's not possible now. There are not only officials guarding Hulong Villa, but also soldiers."
"Soldier? Why?" Ji Qiuyue asked.
Shen Shuyuan said: "Have you forgotten? The heirloom of Hulong Villa."
"Qitian Sword!" Ji Qiuyue said.
Shen Shuyuan nodded: "I wonder if the people in the martial arts world want to get it, and the court will not let it go."
Ji Qiuyue lowered her eyes in thought. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind. She said hesitantly, "Brother, we've thought of many possibilities. There's another possibility. Could the fire be... the imperial court?"
"Qiuyue, don't talk nonsense." Shen Shuyuan's expression changed slightly.
Ji Qiuyue closed her mouth, and after a while she said, "I just have another guess."
Shen Shuyuan said: "You must remember that the people should not fight against the officials."
Ji Qiuyue muttered quietly: "But, wasn't Hulong Villa originally an official?"
She spoke very quietly, and Shen Shuyuan didn't hear it, but Fu Zhenghong heard it, but didn't say anything.
At midnight, when everyone was fast asleep, the three of them got ready and headed to the Huolong Villa.
Ji Qiuyue walked in front. As soon as she opened the door, a series of crackling sounds came from the window behind her.
The three of them heard it and turned around at the same time: "Who?" Fu Zhenghong asked.
"It's me, Song Yu!" Song Yu's voice came from outside the window.
Ji Qiuyue ran over like the wind and opened the window immediately.
Shen Shuyuan was a little slow and closed the door before walking back.
As soon as the window opened, Qingling jumped in holding Song Yu, followed by Ye Shuangbai. The three people who were originally in the room had no time to be surprised before they saw two more people following them in.
"Song Yu, are you okay?" Ji Qiuyue looked up and down at Song Yu. Apart from being a little dirty and dusty, there were no obvious wounds on his body.
Song Yu got off Qing Ling and said, "I'm fine."
Without any time to exchange pleasantries, he turned to Wei Wenyao, who had returned with them, and said, "Master Wei, please put the lady to bed first."
Wei Wenyao nodded when he heard this, walked towards the bed, and then carefully placed his wife on the bed and covered her with a quilt.
After dealing with these, he turned around and faced the others.
"You guys, what is going on?" Fu Zhenghong finally asked.
Song Yu went to the table and poured two glasses of water. He handed one to Qing Ling and drank the other himself before saying, "To avoid any complications, we will hide until dark."
"What happened to the fire at Hulong Villa?" asked Fu Zhenghong.
