Chapter 15 Murder and Arson(2/2)
Therefore, ordinary people accumulate piles of sand and use sand to extinguish it.
"You brat... hurry up and put out the fire..."
Father Fang took several young boys at home, each carrying a wooden bucket, and shouted anxiously.
Fang Er, Fang Four, and Fang Five, the three and a half boys, obediently picked up the bucket. The weight of this bucket of sand was really heavy. The oldest one, Fang Er, who was already 12 this year, was panting.
It was just a round trip.
Xun Shaoyu's eyelids were lowered, his upper body was naked, and he looked at the six old homes that were burning fiercely, with a gloomy and uncertain expression.
The short top was stained with blood and was no longer suitable for wearing in public.
So Xun Shaoyu, neatly and neatly, threw his only shirt into the fire, and it was all over.
Anyway, in this chaotic situation, Xun Shaoyu had a hundred reasons to explain the fact that he lost his shirt afterwards.
only……
Xun Shaoyu glanced secretly at the man who was banging the gong.
It was this man who was the first to discover that Liu Lao's home was leaking water.
It was also the reason why Liu Lao's life should not be cut off. When the fire first broke out, the man discovered him and carried him out of the hut, only to save his life.
This is because Xun Shaoyu did not have the intention to kill.
Otherwise, if one blow of the knife kills the six elders immediately, why go to the trouble of burning down the hut.
However, the predecessor, Fang Jiu, could be regarded as receiving favors from the six elders. These six elders were often kind to others in the village. Feeling a trace of friendship, Xun Shaoyu did not do anything wrong.
But in order to prevent the Taoist's body from being discovered by the Six Elders and causing unnecessary trouble, he still burned such a fire.
When a fire occurs, it's not just the houses of the villagers that can be burned down. There will also be many, many more that disappear together...
Six old men, it’s not their fate to be cut off!
"You bastard...don't put out the fire yet!"
Fang's father was sweating profusely and running back and forth carrying a bucket of sand. He looked at Fang Jiu in a daze, worried and unhappy.
You know, fire is no small matter!
Whenever there was a disaster, the court would not cut off hundreds or even thousands of heads.
If dozens of heads are lost by chance, this can be regarded as the benevolent government of those in power.
There is no mercy when it comes to fire, no matter what is involved.
Even witnessing a fire and not rescuing it is a capital offense.
"Ah..." Xun Shaoyu's acting skills came to the forefront instantly, and he waved his hands in panic, as if he was a frightened cat.
Father Fang was stunned for a moment, his face softened, he shook his head and said to Fang Er beside him: "Xiao Jiu is probably scared... Let Jiu'er go pick up some gravel..."
This is the feeling of adding a calf!
There are dangers during fire fighting, but picking up gravel is undoubtedly much less risky.
But Xun Shaoyu still couldn't be allowed to just go home and rest without doing anything.
In the event of a fire, everyone, young and old, must participate in disaster relief!
The imperial decree is like this, no one dares to treat it like a child's play.
"kindness……"
In the eyes of Fang's father and eldest brother, Xun Shaoyu had always been a good boy, lowering his head timidly.
Fang Er patted his younger brother's young shoulder vigorously: "Stay away from the fire and don't get close to it. When you hold the bucket to load gravel, if you feel that you can't carry it, pack less. Don't be brave and be careful..."
"Well..." Xun Shaoyu lowered his head and silently praised his predecessor in his heart.
The predecessor, Fang Jiu, has been timid and afraid of getting into trouble since he was a child. He tolerates things when he can and gives in when he can. He has always looked honest and honest, or cowardly and incompetent.
But who could have imagined that the ignorant and scared child in front of him was the real culprit of this fire.
I'm afraid that even if the Taoist is ignorant, pointing at Xun Shaoyu's nose and telling the "truth" loudly in front of everyone, it will be in vain.
