Chapter 769

"Burn?" Shen Yongda was a little surprised, "My lord, this place is inside Chang'an City. If it really set fire to it, people from Sishui Temple may come soon."

Chen Qiao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, if they really come, I will stop them."

After hearing Chen Qiao's words, Shen Yongda originally wanted to say something more, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Shi Lintong on the side say: "It must be burned here, otherwise the corpses that are full of buildings will not be able to deal with it." If it is dropped, if it is left to the people in the city tomorrow, I don’t know how much trouble will be caused.”

"That's right." After Chen Qiao dropped the four words, he turned his head and looked around again, and asked, "Is there any fire oil around here?"

The three of them thought for a while, Xin Zhicheng suddenly slapped his forehead heavily, and said, "I remembered, there is a grain and oil store near here. Although the grain and oil are not as easy to use as kerosene, it is better than nothing."

Chen Qiao rubbed his chin and smiled for a while, finally nodded and agreed, and said to Xin Zhicheng who was about to leave: "After taking the food and oil from the store, remember to put down the money, otherwise we will become thieves."

"Don't worry, my lord, the subordinates will naturally understand these things."

Soon, Xin Zhicheng came back with several barrels of grain and oil in his arms, and a few jars of old wine that he found somewhere around his waist. Before Xin Zhicheng came over, the smell of strong wine had already entered into the noses of Chen Qiao and the others.

"Where did you get the wine?" Shen Yongda asked in surprise.

Xin Zhicheng rolled his eyes at him, and said: "I just passed by the restaurant we often go to. I was afraid that there would not be enough food and oil, so I stopped by that restaurant to get a few jars of wine." Seeing that Chen Qiao seemed to be about to say something, Xin Zhicheng Then he hurriedly said: "My lord, don't worry, I put down the money at the usual price."

Hearing this, Chen Qiao nodded reassuringly, and said to everyone, "Light up the fire."

"Yes!"

After answering, the three of Shen Yongda walked into the Tingfeng Building with grain, oil and wine. In order to avoid the difficulty of getting inside, Xin Zhicheng jumped up from the outside of the Tingfeng Building with the grain, oil and wine into the Tingfeng Building. second floor.

Not long after, all the food, oil and wine were sprinkled in every corner of the Tingfeng Building, and the three of them retreated from the Tingfeng Building again, standing at the door, Shen Yongda took out the fire pocket and looked at Chen Qiao again, After he saw Chen Qiao nodding his head at him, Shen Yongda lit a fire and threw it into the Tingfeng Building.

In an instant, the entire Tingfeng Tower was surrounded by flames that shot up into the sky. The four of Chen Qiao stood outside the Tingfeng Tower, watching the raging fire in front of them, and fell silent for a while.

Sure enough, not long after, people from Sishui Temple ran over with a water cart.I thought Chen Qiao and the others were arsonists, but just when they were about to send the four of Chen Qiao to Dali Temple, Chen Qiao turned his head and looked at Si Shui who was driving over with a water truck Temple Shaoqing.

"General Chen?!"

Sishui Temple Shaoqing never expected that Chen Qiao would be here, he took two steps forward to greet Chen Qiao, and then said: "General, please allow me to put out this fire first."

"No hurry," Chen Qiao looked at Sishui Temple Shaoqing with a smile and said, "You just ask your people to watch the left and right sides of the Tingfeng Building carefully, and don't let this fire implicate other innocent people."

Upon hearing Chen Qiao's words, Sishui Temple Shaoqing realized in his heart that the fire in front of them was probably caused by Chen Qiao.

"I just don't know, this Tingfenglou—"

Just as Shaoqing of Sishui Temple opened his mouth, he felt Chen Qiao's cold gaze on him. He shuddered suddenly, and fell silent instantly as if someone was strangling his neck.

"You don't need to know about some things, just do as I tell you." Chen Qiao said to Sishui Temple Shaoqing expressionlessly.

"Yes! Yes!" After answering, Sishui Temple Shaoqing ran away like burning his ass.

Shen Yongda turned his head and glanced at the back of the Sishui Temple Shaoqing, and said with disdain: "A small Sishui Temple Shaoqing dares to inquire about the affairs of adults, it really is not small."

Shi Lintong smiled and said, "He's just curious, so there's no need to be harsh on Brother Shen."

Because the body was sprinkled with grain, oil and spirits, even after the Tingfeng Building was burned down, the flames that filled the sky still did not go out.Fortunately, there was no wind blowing in Chang'an City tonight, and the fire did not spread to other places.

It wasn't until the white belly appeared on the far horizon that the fire that had been burning for a whole night was finally gradually extinguished.

"Go and see if those corpses have been burnt clean." Chen Qiao said, pushing Shen Yongda who was drowsy.

Shen Yongda was woken up by Chen Qiao, yawned and kicked out angrily, waking up Shi Lintong and Xin Zhicheng who were also taking a nap.

"Hurry up, my lord let us go inside and check."

After finishing speaking, Shen Yongda didn't intend to talk long-winded with the two of them, so he turned around and walked towards Tingfeng Tower, which was already in ruins.

Seeing that it was still a three-story building last night, but today there is only a piece of ashes left, even Shen Yongda couldn't recognize it and sighed softly.

Passing by a few places where sparks were still beating, Shen Yongda stomped out the sparks without mercy. After making sure that all the corpses were also reduced to ashes, Shen Yongda turned around and walked towards Chen Qiao with peace of mind.

The people from Sishui Temple, just like Chen Qiao and the others, stood on the street for a whole night, so when they saw that everyone was finally happy and hated, the officials of Sishui Temple were almost on the verge of standing up. Can't stop.

The most exasperating thing is that these Sishui Temple officials suddenly remembered that no matter whether it is Chen Qiao or Shen Yongda, none of them need to go to court, and they...

Turning his head to look at the east side where the light had been revealed, every official of Sishui Temple felt like crying without tears.

After checking that Tingfeng Building was indeed in ruins, Chen Qiao turned around and greeted Sishui Temple Shaoqing, and then left with Shen Yongda and the others.

After working all night, as soon as he returned home and reached his room, Chen Qiao fell headfirst on the bed and fell asleep soundly.

When Chen Qiao finally woke up, it was already past noon.Chen Qiao got up from the bed rubbing his temples, changed into a more comfortable home clothes, and walked out with a folding fan.

Right now, Brother Han and Brother Qian are reading with King Luo Bin. Chen Qiao saw the children shaking their heads while reading from a distance, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth involuntarily.

"Qiao Lang woke up?"

Li Lizhi, who brought her maid to deliver fruit tea to Brother Han and Brother Qian, walked behind Chen Qiao.

As soon as Chen Qiao turned his head, he saw Li Lizhi who was looking at him with a lingering smile, and said with a smile: "Last night I worked all night, and I fell asleep without saying hello to you when I came back this morning."

"We all saw the fire yesterday." Li Lizhi looked into Chen Qiao's apologetic eyes and said.

"Why didn't you rest so late?" Chen Qiao remembered that when they lit the fire, it was already very late, so he naturally wondered why the people in the mansion hadn't fallen asleep by that time.
