Qin Xian 'er trusted him unconditionally. Although she didn't know what his intentions were, she didn't think twice about it. She quickly grabbed the arms of the two women next to her, and with a quick tap of her toes, she shot out like a swallow in the water.
Before the three of them could stand still, they heard a violent explosion behind them. Broken bricks and tiles flew over like a swarm of locusts. The huge sound wave almost broke their eardrums.
"Bad people —"
"Mother —"
Ignoring the flying debris in front of them, the three of them hurriedly turned around and saw a heart-wrenching scene. One after another, explosions sounded. The place where Lin San and Lady Xiao stood was like the center of a firecracker fire. Broken bricks and debris flew all over the sky, and billowing smoke and dust soared into the sky. A huge heat wave burned their cheeks, as if they had pounced on a stove.
Amidst the explosion, flames shot in all directions. The wooden frame with the lantern was next to the Xiao Family's cloth storage room. Just outside the wall of the neighboring courtyard was a four-story restaurant. "Boom!" The surrounding houses were razed to the ground. The foundation of the restaurant also shook and collapsed. Broken bricks and broken beams flew in the air, and thick smoke and dust scattered all over the sky. It was impossible to see anyone within a few dozen feet, let alone the whereabouts of Lady Xiao and Lin Wanrong.
"Husband —" Qin Xian 'er's eyes were red. Like an arrow, she shot out and madly ran towards the center of the explosion.
"Boom! Boom!" The explosives hidden in the lantern exploded one after another. The huge shock wave stirred up layers of smoke. When Qin Xian 'er's body touched the wave, she couldn't help but let out a cry. Her chest felt like it was hit by a heavy hammer. Blood flowed down from the corner of her mouth. Her delicate body was overturned by the wave and flew straight back.
"Sister Xian 'er —" Xiao Yushuang miserably cried out. She and Grand Mistress rushed out at the same time and reached out to pull her. Qin Xian 'er's body hit the other two. The three women screamed at the same time and fell to the ground.
One after another, the crackling sound of burning was accompanied by the sound of walls collapsing. It was so piercing that it made people's hearts ache. Xiao Yuruo's mind was blank, and her heart felt like it was being torn apart. She didn't notice the danger at all.
"Bad person — Mother —" The Second Young Miss sobbed and crawled up from the ground, wanting to rush into the bonfire. This cry woke Xiao Yuruo up. She hurriedly pulled her sister back and said with tears in her eyes, "Yushuang, what are you doing? Don't be reckless! "
Second Miss looked at her blankly. Suddenly, she cried out and threw herself into her arms, "Jiejie, where are the bad people and mother? Would they die?! I-I don't want to live anymore. "
"No, I won't, I definitely won't. You know, he's so bad that even the King of Hell wouldn't accept him. " Xiao Yuruo stroked her sister's hair and comforted her softly, but her body couldn't stop trembling. Tears poured down. Although she had always been independent and strong, today's tragedy had already exceeded her imagination. In particular, Lin San and her mother were the two most important people in her life. Just a moment ago, they were still joking and fooling around. In the blink of an eye, they were swallowed alive by the smoke of gunpowder. Faced with such a miserable situation, how could she not be heartbroken?
"Really?! They won't die, right, jiejie? "The Second Young Miss's eyes were dull, lying in her arms and muttering to herself. She seemed to be asking her, but also seemed to be saying it to herself. Her eyes were dead.
"Good sister, they won't," Grand Mistress's tears rolled down. She hugged Yushuang's body tightly and murmured, "Mother and he won't die. Even if we die, we will be together with them. We are a family. We will never be separated. "
"Jiejie — —" Xiao Yushuang cried and hugged her tightly. Her whole body gradually became cold, and she cried until she fainted.
Remembering that she was still talking and laughing with Lin San just now, but in a moment, they were separated by life and death, Xiao Yuruo was so distressed that she almost suffocated. But after all, she had been in charge of the Xiao Family for many years. It wasn't easy to be defeated. Right now, her mother and Lin San's life and death were uncertain, and she needed to calm down.
Qin Xian 'er slowly woke up from her coma. The first thing she saw was Xiao Yuruo's tough and beautiful cheeks. She coughed lightly, and blood slowly flowed down the corner of her mouth. She murmured, "Xiao, Xiao Family jiejie, where's husband? Have you seen him?"
Xiao Yuruo's eyes were filled with tears, but a strong smile floated on her lips. She gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, "Don't worry, he's fine. You're injured, so you have to rest well. Otherwise, he'll be distressed if he sees you. "
Qin Xian 'er staggered to stand up. The explosion had subsided, and the smoke slowly dissipated. The air was filled with the smell of burning. The Xiao Family's courtyard, together with the surrounding houses and restaurants, had been razed to the ground. Lin Wanrong and Lady Xiao's figures were long gone. The place where they stood was covered with collapsed rubble, piling up to three or four feet high.
A corner of a robe could be faintly seen from the broken wall, which had been dyed red by blood. Grand Mistress's face was deathly pale. Her body swayed twice, and she clenched her fists tightly. Her silver teeth bit her red lips until they bled.
"Husband!!" Although Qin Xian 'er was injured, her eyes were still sharp. Seeing the corner of the robe, she immediately let out a long and sorrowful cry and madly rushed forward.
Xiao Yuruo hurriedly held her, and the two of them hugged each other tightly as they moved forward. Their heartbeats could be heard clearly. Grand Mistress bent down, and her little hands trembled as she stroked the robe. Tears silently fell down. After a long time, she gritted her teeth and slowly pulled the robe out. It was getting lighter and lighter, and it was actually a torn corner of the robe. The blood stains on the robe could be clearly seen.
Qin Xian 'er stood beside Grand Mistress. She even forgot to breathe. Looking at the blood, she couldn't bear the torment anymore. Suddenly, she fell down, and crazily used her hands to pull away the rubble. She pitifully cried, "Husband, where are you? Where are you? Xian 'er is looking for you! "
Xiao Yuruo was shocked, and hurriedly pulled her hand, "Sister Xian 'er, you can't, you can't. You're not saving him, you're harming him!"
Qin Xian 'er stopped and murmured, "Elder sister, what did you say?"
Grand Mistress sighed, "This place is covered with rubble. If niangqin and Lin San are really buried under it, and we don't know where they are, if we act rashly, it will only accelerate the collapse of the rubble, and ultimately harm them."
Qin Xian 'er heard this and didn't dare to move anymore. She didn't dare to move anymore and hurriedly pulled Xiao Yuruo's hand. Her eyes were filled with surprise as she said, "Elder Sister, you mean that my husband will be fine? Isn't that right, isn't that right? "
Although she knew that this was Qin Xian 'er's way of comforting herself, wasn't Xiao Yuruo the same? She wiped her tears, and said with a sad smile, "Don't you know him? A bad guy like him, if he doesn't bully us enough, how can he be willing to leave?
Qin Xian 'er made a sound of agreement, and seemed to have gained a lot of strength. She seemed to have absorbed a lot of energy, proudly wiping her tears, "Sister is right, our husband is the strongest, no one can harm him …"
Before she finished, there were sounds of footsteps from afar, and hundreds of strong men rushed over. The person at the front knelt on the ground, kowtowing and crying, "I deserve to die! I deserve to die! I neglected my duty, I didn't protect Brother Lin well. I deserve to die! Princess, please grant me death! "
"Can you compensate for my husband's life if I grant you death?" Qin Xian 'er was furious when she heard this, and her face turned cold. Tears flowed down, and she scolded loudly, "I will kill your entire family, and bring disaster to the next eighteen generations …"
Although she was Princess Nichang, she grew up in the White Lotus Sect and was taught by An Biru. She was originally a demon girl who wasn't afraid of anything. When she saw her husband die, she was filled with killing intent. Her eyes turned red, and she returned to her demonic nature.
Xiao Yuruo slowly calmed down, and she pulled her hand, saying gently, "Sister Xian 'er, if you want to kill him, you have to wait. Saving him is more important now."
Qin Xian 'er scoffed, and her eyes were red, "You better hope that nothing happens to my husband. If he loses a single hair, I will chop off one of your legs. I will do what I say. "
Gao Qiu felt guilty, and he lowered his head, not daring to make a sound. Xiao Yuruo wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and described what had happened. She sighed, "Hero Gao, based on your experience, Lin San and my mother are under the rubble."
Gao Qiu slowly walked to the side of the rubble. He observed carefully, and smelled the smell in the air. He couldn't help but be speechless. The power of the gunpowder was strong, and the explosion happened in the courtyard of the Xiao Family. The space was extremely narrow, and the power could be imagined. He lowered his head and was silent for a while, and said slowly in a low voice, "Lady Xiao and Brother Lin's remains should be under there …"
"What did you say?!" Qin Xian 'er raised her eyebrows, and tears flashed in her eyes. She gritted her teeth so hard that they were about to break. Xiao Yuruo's delicate body also shook, and her face was pale. She almost fell down.
It was a miracle that they could survive such a violent explosion, and they were buried under layers of rubble. Gao Qiu's old tears flowed, and he didn't dare to touch the two ladies' pain. At this point, he could only make a desperate attempt, and pretend that Brother Lin was still alive. Gao Qiu gritted his teeth, waved his hand, and shouted, "Quickly get the water hose …"
The guards had already connected the water hose, and Gao Qiu ordered people to pour water on the rubble to cool it down. This was to prevent the ruins under the rubble from overheating or burning, which would cause the two people below to suffocate.
Seeing that everyone had started to move, Qin Xian 'er felt a little better. She held Xiao Yuruo's hand tightly, and said, "Sister, when can they start to save people? How can Husband and Madam endure such a delay down there? "
"There's no hurry." Xiao Yuruo sighed helplessly, "The rubble on the ground may collapse again at any time, and the water hose can't be too fast. Cleaning up the rubble must be done manually. If it collapses again, even if mother and Lin San have ten lives, they still won't be able to keep it. "
Qin Xian 'er gritted her teeth in agreement, and closed her eyes devoutly. She clasped her hands in front of her chest, and two crystal tears slowly fell down her cheeks.
Grand Mistress's heart ached, and she hugged Xian 'er's arm, and slowly leaned on her shoulder. The two of them hugged each other tightly, and snuggled up to each other!
…
"Where is this?!" Lin Wanrong slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing that came into view was darkness, boundless darkness!
It was silent, and he couldn't hear a trace of movement for a long time. Occasionally, there was a light crackling sound, but he didn't know where it came from. The air was filled with the thick smell of gunpowder, and he couldn't open his eyes. There was a burning pain on his face, as if there was charcoal burning around him.
Where is this? He asked again, and when he was about to reach out to touch his surroundings, he felt as if his whole body had fallen apart. There was no place that wasn't hot, and there was no place that wasn't painful. He grimaced in pain, but he couldn't even stretch out his hands, and the pain from his legs was especially obvious.
This simple action consumed all his strength. He cried out, and his throat was so dry that it seemed to be smoking. His voice was hoarse and weak, and even he couldn't hear himself.
He gasped for breath, and his arms hung down powerlessly. There seemed to be a soft sandbag under his body, and it felt very good. He subconsciously pressed down again, and a few strands of hair brushed past the corner of his mouth, and a faint fragrance seeped into his nostrils.
He couldn't help but praise the strong rose perfume, and when he was about to take a few more sniffs, he was stunned in an instant.
Lady! This is Lady Xiao! His sluggish brain suddenly woke up, and the scene at the moment of the explosion appeared in front of him. The fiery waves hit him, and he only remembered that he used all his strength to protect Lady Xiao under his body, and then he didn't know anything else.
Explosion? I'm still alive?! The more intense the pain in his body, the happier he was. The pain was so real, and it was to prove that he was still alive. He was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. I'm going to fucking sing! His hoarse voice sounded like the sound of the spring rain dripping on the soil.
Lady, is Lady still alive? His heart gradually turned cold. Lady Xiao's soft body stuck close to him, and it was as smooth as a piece of fine silk. Her exquisite skin was as white and flawless as milk.
The two of them stuck close to each other. In the past, when facing the beautiful and mature Lady, he always liked to flirt and take advantage of her. Today, when he was so close to her, he seemed to have become noble. In this desperate situation, he didn't know why, but he became much calmer, and there wasn't a trace of blasphemy in his heart.
Lady Xiao's body was icy cold, and not a trace of life could be felt. Lin Wanrong's heart trembled, and ignoring the pain in his body, he used all his strength to stretch out his arm and held her hand. That small hand was as cold as an ice stone, and there wasn't a bit of warmth to be found.
Lin Wanrong was stunned, an unprecedented deep sorrow suddenly welled up in his heart. He cried out loudly, as if he wanted to vent all the pain, his broken voice was like a silkworm chewing on mulberry leaves, and those two streams of tears, could no longer be held back.
"This, where is this place? Is it raining?! "A soft and weak voice faintly sounded beside his ear.
