Chapter 121 Fire

The dumb girl supported her and persuaded: "Miss, you are just too tired, why don't you sleep for a while?"

Sijiu was so flustered that she seemed to spit it out of her mouth, she shook her head, "I can't sleep, I'm afraid something will happen tonight, my heart is going up and down, it's too uncomfortable!"

"You don't eat, drink or sleep for a day, can your heart not feel bad?"

The dumb girl wanted to continue persuading her, but Chunman and Uncle Hua rushed in, "Miss, something happened on the mountain."

Sijiu froze on the spot and couldn't move, her feet felt like nails were driven into her feet, she pretended to be calm and asked, "What's wrong?"

"A villager came over and said that the house seemed to be on fire, and many people went up to the mountain to help."

Sijiu lifted her legs and ran out, leaving a few people to guard Qiu An's body. Before she left, she told Bodhi, "Stay here to guard grandma. If any little ghosts come to disturb you, you will have a full meal tonight!"

Bodhi meowed and licked his paw as a promise.

She still felt dizzy after running for a few steps, she shook her head vigorously and asked, "Dumb girl, what's in the milk you gave me?"

The dumb girl lowered her head and said guiltily, "There is something to help sleep."

Sijiu glanced at her reproachfully, pulled off the pendulum around her neck, rolled up her sleeves, and slashed at her arm mercilessly with the sharp end.

The dumb girl exclaimed, "Miss, what are you doing!"

Sijiu replied with a hoarse voice: "Pain can make people wake up."

The bright red blood flowed down her arm and dripped onto the ground. The pendulum also sucked in part of it, and was stained with blood. From now on, it only recognizes four or nine masters, and no one can control it.

Uncle Hua and Chunman chased after him, and seeing Sijiu's arm, they were troubled: "The situation on the mountain may not be so serious, Miss, you can't be so disrespectful to yourself."

But she felt that this matter must not be simple, otherwise grandma's portrait would not suddenly fall, Donglai would not be so restless, the house caught fire as soon as grandma left.
They ran up the mountain at high speed, but it still took half an hour.

When they arrived at the gate of Ji's house, the courtyard was ablaze, and thick black smoke hovered in the sky and drifted into the distance.

Many villagers poured water into it spontaneously. There are trees under the mountain. If it really catches fire, it will be no small matter.

Sijiu was about to rush in, but was pulled back from behind by Uncle Hua, "Miss, you can't go in! The fire is too great!"

Those fiery red lights danced in her pupils, she tried desperately to break free, but she couldn't break free.
"Why didn't anyone come out??? Ah??? Where are they? Grandpa! Father! Mother! Dozens of servants are inside!!! Where are they???"

She knelt on the ground powerlessly, hitting the ground with both fists!

"Come out!!! Come out!!!"

Her crying seemed so miserable in such a night, and she will remember her helplessness at this moment for the rest of her life.
At this time, there was thunder in the sky, and it rained heavily in an instant. The villagers said happily: "God has eyes, it's raining!!!"

The heavy rain hit Sijiu's body countless times, soaking her hair and clothes. Many people said that it hadn't rained like this for many years. It must be the blessing of the old lady, otherwise how could it suddenly rain heavy rain.

Sijiu seemed to have lost her soul. She watched the fire in the courtyard being extinguished by the rain, but she still didn't get up from the ground.

Uncle Hua Chunman and the villagers went in to check. The dumb girl took off her clothes and covered Sijiu's head, hoping to cover her from the rain.
