Chapter 2325 Bad Premonition
on fire?
Meng Yunzheng didn't intend to intervene, now that it's chaotic and noisy, it's time for him to go back.
However, when his eyes inadvertently glanced in the direction of the noise, his brows suddenly furrowed.
That position...
If he remembered correctly, the place where the fire seemed to be the shop they saw Wei Shi go into two days ago.
Meng Yunzheng hesitated for a moment, turned his heels, and headed towards the direction of the flames.
After a few ups and downs, he came to the alley near the shop, hiding in a dark corner.
Not far away, many neighbors came to fight the fire, and the patrolling officials also came, and they ran back and forth while holding buckets.
There is no river near here, so we can only scoop water into the water tanks stored in various houses and nearby.
Looking at the situation, I am afraid that it will not be extinguished for a while.
Some people cried and shouted, and some people were afraid that their family would also be implicated, and they panicked even more.
However, there were also people who came over from a distance to watch the excitement. Meng Yunzheng vaguely heard their conversation amidst the quarrel.
"It seems that a servant's room in their house was set up first. According to their lady, she heard the sound of something falling on the ground, probably an oil lamp."
"The firewood room is next to the servant's room. It's hot and muggy this summer, and the firewood and straw are very dry. If there is a spark, won't the fire start?"
"It's too fast. Didn't the lady hear the fire when it was on fire? Why didn't you put out the fire immediately?"
"Who knows, maybe this lady didn't expect it to be a fire, or she was too scared to react."
"I heard that the servants in this house have not escaped until now."
"Oh no?"
"Hey, it's a pity, the young lady is only in her twenties, and she looks quite beautiful. I have seen her in the daytime."
Meng Yunzheng's face changed slightly. The servant of this family is a young lady in her twenties?
A bad premonition flashed in his heart.
This person must be Wei Shi, if it is really her, wouldn't they just find someone and be burned to death inside?
Meng Yunzheng couldn't just ignore Wei's death, he looked at the fire. This shop has a pavement in front and a yard in the back. The owner and his servants should all live in the backyard.
The place where the fire started now is in the backyard.
Meng Yunzheng turned around and plunged into the darkness, and quickly ran towards the back door.
It's just that there are more people here, and everyone is here to fight the fire.
He weighed it up and walked towards a side alley, planning to climb over the wall directly from here.
Unexpectedly, just a few steps into the alley, there was a burst of **** smell from the tip of the nose.
Meng Yunzheng's footsteps stopped suddenly, and he frowned and looked at the alley in front of him. He was in a special situation now, and although he felt very urgent, he still cautiously searched in the direction of the **** smell.
As the footsteps got closer, the smell of blood became stronger.
Until he stood in a corner full of sundries, the smell was already very strong, and, under the light of the fire not far away, he also saw blood on the ground.
The sword in Meng Yunzheng's hand stretched forward, and picked out the topmost worn-out basket cautiously.
Then he lifted off the tattered tarpaulin covering the outside, and the next moment, a figure appeared inside.
Meng Yunzheng looked at the man's face, and suddenly his expression changed drastically.
