The flames shone brightened most of the sky.The rolling smoke rose from the Lu family's vast house, and you can see it even on the other end of the small town.
It was already dusk, and the residents who returned home were panicked. Some shouted that they had gone away, some beat drums and drums, carrying basins and other tools to hold water to the Lu family.
The Lu family's mansion was also in chaos. The fire was burned from Tingtao Courtyard. Because the piece was full of old wooden buildings, it quickly spread out.
Mr. Lu Ting, who had just returned home, hurriedly organized people to put out the fire. He grabbed a maid from Tingtaoyuan: Where is the young master!
I don't know... Young Master, maybe the young master is still inside...
The maid's face was pale and there were traces of smoke on her chin.
Before the fire started, the young master was out of normalcy for some reason and rushed them out in anger. So all the servants in Tingtao Courtyard were fine, but the young master disappeared.
Is it that the young master...
She was stammering and did not dare to speak, but was thrown away by Lu Ting: Put the fire!quick!Be sure to put out the fire!Find the young master!
But if the young master was in such a big fire, he would have been burned to death long ago.
The servants dared not speak, and saw the master as if he was crazy. He thought to himself that the master did not seem to be close to the master, but in fact he was still nervous. However, he didn't know that Lu Ting must find Lu Hanshen's reason. He is the River God, which is the key to their Lu family's great cause!
Lu Ting also guessed in his heart whether the fire was released by Lu Hanshen, and perhaps he had already escaped in the chaos.
But at this time, I didn't care about that much. Even if Lu Hanshen was not inside, the fire would be put out. Besides, Old Master Lu had already had a plan. At this time, Lu's house was surrounded by servants, and the people in the house could not escape.
He could not imagine that Lu Hanshen was not prepared to escape from the beginning.
This fire was indeed released by Lu Han, and the purpose was not for himself, but for Yao Ji.
They planned to let Yao Ji take the opportunity to escape when she went to Qi's family, but the situation was complicated, so who knew what was going on with Qi's family.
The only thing Lu Hanshen and Yao Ji can rely on is Li Dongyan, and Li Dongming cannot enter Qi's family.
Lu Hanshen did not tell Yao Ji, and he made a secret decision at that time. As soon as Yao Ji went to Qi's house, she found a way to create a fire in Lu's house.
This will help Yao Ji take some attention away. In the chaos, her chances of leaving will increase greatly.
At this time, he had already left Tingtao Courtyard and did not try to escape, but sneaked towards the direction of the ancestral hall.
The road was full of servants running and shouting. People rushed to the direction of the fire with buckets and wooden basins. Lu Hanshen was wearing a coarse cloth dress and wrapped his hair in a cloth towel. He sneaked smoothly outside the ancestral hall, where there were still people guarding it.
Lu Hanshen did not hesitate and went around the corner to light another fire.
The fire quickly started to burn, and the servants guarding the ancestral hall were not so panicked. The leader calmly ordered his subordinates: Come on, two people, hurry up and notify the old master and the master, and the rest should put out the fire quickly!Remember, you cannot enter the ancestral hall, otherwise the old man will blame you and no one will be able to take care of it!
Everyone answered in unison. Although it was not panic, Lu Han still looked at the loophole and dived in while most of them went to fetch water.
He didn't want to burn the Lu family, after all, this was the place where he gave birth to and raised him.
Even since he was born, he had never seen every tree and grass in the garden, and even if he stood in front of these servants, they would not recognize him. He was the young master of the Lu family.
Involuntarily, a hint of sad ridicule appeared in his eyes. The reason for all may be in the ancestral hall, in the so-called divine order.
This is his only chance, the chance to get close to the truth.
Along the bluestone slab, Lu Han pushed open the black oil door in front of him.
The crunching sounded, the tiny-sourcing bearing turned.
The skylight seemed to have never illuminated this spacious lobby. There was no skylight on the roof. Endless darkness swallowed the place. When the door was pushed open, the air was filled with the smell of decayed dust.
Lu Hanshen's footsteps echoed empty and clearly, du, du, du, du... the echo was lingering, as if he didn't know which space of time and space it sounded.
His figure gradually disappeared, and the heavy black oil gate slowly closed bit by bit after losing support.
Until there was only a little gap left in the door, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the door: Han Shen!
Lu Weiqi's face was as cold as ice: Look at who this is!
With a wave of his hand, the two old women pushed a girl with her hands and feet in front of him.The girl's clothes were covered with mud stains, and two bright red marks were drawn on her wrists, which was Yao Ji.
It turned out that after she successfully escaped from Qi Mansion, she learned that the Lu family had a fire and was hesitating whether to escape to the train station as planned or to go to the Lu family to take a look.
With Yao Ji's personality, she would not be so indecisive, but she didn't know what happened to the Lu family. The Lu family regarded Lu Hanshen as a river god and should not hurt him easily, but if he was surprised...
She suddenly thought that perhaps the fire was released by Lu Hanshen for her.
After calming down, Yao Ji decided to rush to the train station.
Only when she escapes successfully can she spread what happened here and expose the Lu family's plan. Moreover, if she falls into the hands of the Lu family, it will be Lu Hanshen's ties.
But she didn't expect that it was Zhang Po, whom she fought back against her.
The eldest lady, offended her, and Mrs. Zhang suddenly grabbed her hand, and there were already people around her. The old lady did a great job of acting, and even I was deceived by the old lady. But when things were about to come, the old lady couldn't sit still.
Yao Ji glared at her fiercely: My dad?Or the Lu family?
Who am I obeying, is it still important now?Mrs. Zhang smiled, but the smile became more and more disgusting. The eldest lady should go back obediently. The Lu family is the eldest lady’s in-laws’ family.
Hearing Lu Weiqi's words, Yao Ji hurriedly raised her voice: Han Shen, don't worry about me, do whatever she wants!She turned to Lu Weiqi and smiled coldly. The old man wouldn't kill me in public. The Lu family wanted to use me as a sacrifice. How could it be without a ceremony?
You know everything?Lu Weiqi's face was gloomy, OK, very good.
There was only a gap left between the door leaf, which was faintly wide. Yao Ji could see a high platform in the lobby. I don’t know what was enshrined on the platform. It was a strange shape and was exactly the same as the Lu family’s emblem. It was the Divine Order.
The groggy feeling in her mind surged out again, and the messy memories were like floating lights, as if they were real or false, as if they were illusions and dreams.
Just as Lu Weiqi made a sound, the footsteps in the ancestral hall stopped.He thought that he had really bet right. Han Shen was the one who was most concerned about the hairy girl. Lu Weiqi waved his hand and signaled his mother Li to step forward.
I saw a porcelain cup in my hand, and a bowl of bitter-colored medicine in the cup was steaming.
I really won't kill you. On Lu Weiqi's old face, the smile was unkind and kind, like an evil ghost. If a bowl of medicine is taken, the child in your belly will be gone.Without children, the ceremony can still be held. Do you think I dare to pour this bowl of medicine into you?
It was already dusk, and the residents who returned home were panicked. Some shouted that they had gone away, some beat drums and drums, carrying basins and other tools to hold water to the Lu family.
