Chapter 54(1/2)
Seeing Wei Cheng deflated, Lin Shuang felt extremely happy.
The religious ceremony was arranged in the open space outside Huazhuyuan, which made it quite lively.
The medicine boy who was in charge of decoction for Zuo Tang passed by the master who was mumbling something unknown in the yard, and saw a fire not far away still burning paper money charms, and narrowed his eyes.
After the master finished chanting, he waved his whisk towards the brazier, and the fire suddenly increased in intensity.
At this moment, a gust of wind happened to blow from nowhere, and the dancing fire accidentally burned the tablecloth of the table next to it, and it immediately started to burn.
When everyone saw this situation, they immediately panicked.
Why did everything so good start to burn?
The boys immediately went to get water to put out the fire.
As a result, when the first basin of water was poured out, it not only failed to extinguish the fire, but even burned more intensely.
As soon as he finished speaking, the next boy also poured a bucket of water, but just like before, when the bucket of water was poured down, the fire became even bigger.
"Where did you get the water from?!" the steward asked angrily.
"Just the water tank outside." The boy pointed to the outside of the yard and said.
"Hurry and get water from somewhere else to put out the fire!" the housekeeper said anxiously.
Originally, it was just the tablecloth that was burned, but it was easily put out.
But now, the water was mixed with something unknown, and the water that fell to the ground also burned.
The water splashed as it fell and the fire spread everywhere.
After several buckets of water came down, most of the yard was on fire.
During the practice, various white cloths were hung, and many were posted on the eaves.
With this burning, the yard was quickly on fire.
Everyone in Zuofu was called to put out the fire together.
Zuo Mang in the room saw the fire burning outside the yard and immediately panicked.
"Why, why did you just walk away?" Zuo Mang subconsciously wanted to get out of bed and leave.
But as soon as his legs touched the ground, he fell directly to the ground due to weakness. New
Zuo Mang said to Xu Wei: "Quick, take me out of here!"
Then he grabbed Sheng Qingyuan's sleeve and said, "Take her with you too."
Sheng Qingyuan, who was thinking of taking advantage of the chaos and leaving together, didn't have time to say anything. He suddenly felt a pain behind him, and then his body was out of control and he couldn't move.
Sheng Qingyuan: "…………"
Isn’t it because his martial arts skills are higher than hers?!
Moreover, can you change to a better position and stop carrying her like a chick?!
Sheng Qingyuan was taken back to Zuo Mang's original room.
Xu Wei said to Zuo Mang: "Sir, I have transferred all the secret guards in the mansion to this area to protect your safety."
"Okay, okay." Zuo Tangyu was still shocked.
"Can you relieve my acupuncture points?" Sheng Qingyuan asked displeasedly.
Xu Wei said expressionlessly: "There was a fire in the house for no reason. I suspect that some thieves set the fire maliciously. For the sake of Miss Sheng's safety, I can only tolerate Miss Sheng and stay like this for a while."
Sheng Qingyuan: "...Didn't you tell me that you've asked the secret guards to protect this place? If that's the case, then I'll be safe as long as I stay here, but there's no need to be unable to even move my basic actions!"
Xu Wei looked at her coldly, "I think this will be safer for adults."
Sheng Qingyuan: "…………"
Zuo Mang was very satisfied with Xu Wei's decision. He smiled and geared up, limped towards her, raised his hand and wiped her face. Just as he was about to speak, Sheng Qingyuan said coldly: "If you
If you dare to touch me now, I will definitely make you regret it."
Zuo Mang burst out laughing loudly. Seeing the angry look on her face, he felt even happier. He pinched her chin and said frivolously: "You said that, I'm more looking forward to how you will make me regret it."
Sheng Qingyuan looked at him coldly: "Don't forget, I know medicine."
"Of course I know you know medicine." Zuo Mang didn't take Sheng Qingyuan's threat to heart at all, and even thought about touching her cheek again.
When he was about to touch her face
, Sheng Qingyuan threatened in a cold voice: "A doctor with excellent medical skills has many ways to make a healthy person miserable, and he can also make it undetectable."
Zuo Mang paused, "What do you mean?"
Sheng Qingyuan said lightly: "I forgot to tell Mr. Zuo that my medicine is different from other medicines for injuries. The medicine works quickly and recovers quickly. But if there is no follow-up treatment, within a few days, your legs will still be there."
This arm would be useless without you."
"You——" Zuo Mang subconsciously reached out and touched his injured arm.
When I touched it, I couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Zuo Mang looked at Sheng Qingyuan suspiciously.
Is what she said believable?
He drew his sword directly, placed it across Sheng Qingyuan's neck, and said in a cold voice: "You dare to threaten my lord, you are seeking death!"
Facing Xu Wei's cold sword, Sheng Qingyuan showed no fear on her face, "It is better to die clean than to lose your innocence."
Sheng Qingyuan's eyes were firm, showing no intention of compromising.
But her mind was spinning rapidly. If Zuo Mang really insisted on doing something wrong, what should she do?
Compared with innocence and life, life is of course more important.
She is just gambling now.
"Put it down, put it down. Miss Sheng is here to treat my injury. How can you be so rude to Miss Sheng? Untie Miss Sheng's acupuncture points quickly, quickly, quickly." Zuo Mang said with a smile.
Sheng Qingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
She won the bet.
But his face still maintained a cold expression.
After regaining her freedom, Sheng Qingyuan's legs couldn't help but soften, and she sat down holding on to the chair next to her.
Zuo Mang's eyes fell on Sheng Qingyuan and he didn't look anywhere else.
Sheng Qingyuan felt uncomfortable all over.
Sheng Qingyuan stood up and wrote down a new prescription, "According to this prescription, let someone cook a dose of medicine, and then let the adult drink it, otherwise his injury will be aggravated."
Hearing this, Zuo Mang looked at Sheng Qingyuan with even more infatuated eyes.
Sheng Qingyuan suppressed the urge to blind him directly.
It's just that although she also learned a few self-defense techniques from Meng Kun, she couldn't compare with the secret guard in front of her, let alone there were other secret guards around the room.
But Zuo Mang's eyes were really disgusting.
Xu Wei went out with the prescription and happened to see Wei Cheng at the door.
"The new prescription given by Sheng Qingyuan?" Wei Cheng asked.
"Yeah." Xu Wei responded with a cold voice.
"I called the government doctor. I think it's best to let the government doctor take a look first and make sure there is nothing wrong before sending it to you." Wei Cheng suggested.
Xu Wei nodded.
Although he was ordered by the boss to protect you, judging from his various actions, he is really stupid. Among the people in his house, the master in front of him is the only one who has a little bit of brains.
However, the one in the room is really... hard to reassure.
If the two of them were allowed to get along, I'm afraid that if you were to be sold, you would still have to count money for others!
"Go in and watch." Xu Wei said to Wei Cheng.
"good."
Wei Cheng pushed the door open and entered.
When Zuo Mang saw him coming in, there was a bit of displeasure on his face, "Why did you come in?"
There were only two of them left in the room, so that they could develop a relationship properly. Suddenly, another person came in, and he was a man. How could he develop a relationship with Sheng Qingyuan?
Wei Cheng bowed to Zuo Mang and said, "My subordinates are here to report to your lord the situation of the fire in the mansion."
"What's wrong?" Zuo Mang reluctantly sniffed.
Wei Cheng said: "Now that the fire has been put out, the accountant is counting the losses."
Zuo Mang waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, okay, okay, I understand, that's it, you can go down."
Wei Cheng stood still, still maintaining his bowing posture, "Sir, although the fire has been extinguished, the person who set the fire has not been found. Now many people in the house are suspected, and there are still
It needs to be reviewed one by one."
