Although Zhao Lei was invisible now, he could not hide the high temperature generated by the firewood. After there were more people, he could only go to the roof.
Now Zhao Lei only had the last burning firewood and an oil can left in his hands, which he had specially kept for other purposes.
Zhao Lei did not stay here to watch his masterpiece. He was now going to his final destination of setting fire, the granary.
If there is a fire in other places, there will be panic at best. If the granary is on fire, it will be completely different.
What is most important in these troubled times, food is the most important!
If you don’t have anything to eat, don’t listen to what others are afraid of. Isn’t life just for three mouths of food?
And now Zhao Lei was running around on the roof unscrupulously, and no one could find him.
However, the granary was not as easy to find as the firewood shed. Because fire in the kitchen would emit smoke, Zhao Lei could easily find it, and the firewood shed was definitely not too far away from the kitchen, so it didn't take much effort.
But the granary is different. After all, most people don't write granary on the flag and hang it there.
If it were an ordinary person, he might have to grab his tongue and ask, but Zhao Lei is an immortal cultivator. Faced with this situation, he directly dispersed his consciousness.
Zhao Lei shuttled across the roof at extremely fast speeds with almost no sound. In just a dozen or so breaths, he had already discovered the location of the granary.
After arriving here, Zhao Lei couldn't help but sigh, this place is indeed a granary. Just outside this courtyard, there are twenty guards.
These twenty men were strong and strong, and each of them had a big sword on his waist. Not only that, the two leaders also carried long bows on their backs. Their brows were filled with murderous intent. At a glance, you could tell that they were very capable.
It's a pity that no matter how elite they are, they are only mortals. They are no longer on the same level as Zhao Lei.
Zhao Lei jumped three to four feet away with just a slight jump, and reached the roof of the granary very easily.
This granary is very large, five feet high and covers a very large area.
Zhao Lei hung on the eaves with one hand and looked down. He saw that the entire door was tightly sealed with iron and wood boards. With this defense, even with the addition of swords, he could not lose a single cent. The city gate was no more than that.
Under normal circumstances, it was impossible to enter without a key. Faced with this situation, Zhao Lei opened the tiles, revealing a gap that could accommodate a person, and then got in.
After entering, it was still covered with iron and wood boards. This is when the water polo technique came in handy.
Zhao Lei used his magic power, and in an instant, a water ball compressed to the extreme, the size of a thumb, appeared in front of his eyes, and then shot towards the iron board below.
puff!
The water ball shot through the wooden board very easily, and the sound was very soft.
After all, when Zhao Lei first succeeded in cultivation, he could easily shoot through the trees nourished by spiritual energy. No matter how strong the iron wood was, it could not compare to those spiritual trees.
efficient!
Zhao Lei looked at the results of his victory. In an instant, one water ball after another was shot at the iron wood below. He didn't stop until it formed a circle.
Looking at the circle, Zhao Lei stood up and stepped hard.
Click!
The whole board collapsed, making a sound, and the aroma of grains came.
Zhao Lei didn't hesitate. He quickly opened the oil can in his hand and poured it into the granary. The mana spread out in all directions, and then he threw the torch in.
In order to make the fire more intense, Zhao Lei used his magic desperately, and the fire suddenly became stronger.
What started out as just a little burning suddenly turned into a storm, and the entire granary was on fire.
Of course, the moment the noise occurred, the guards outside noticed the anomaly inside, and they responded very quickly.
The leader heard something moving inside and shouted loudly:
"There are thieves in the granary. People from the first team should follow me quickly. Zhang Ji, Zhang Ming. One of you should go call someone quickly, and the other should go to the housekeeper to get the other key. The others should surround the yard. Don't let them. The thief escaped."
These people cooperated tacitly. Two of them came out directly after hearing the order. Four more people followed the leader into the yard, and the others surrounded the yard.
And this, from the sound of the sound to the reaction, only takes a few breaths.
At this time, Wei Gu was not surprised at all when he heard the movement in the granary. He had already seen billowing black smoke not far away from here.
But the fire started so strangely and burned so fast. Wei Gu guessed that someone set the fire deliberately. As this place was a granary, those thieves would most likely come here. He had already ordered his men to be prepared. Now It seems so.
"Hmph! I want to see who is so bold as to come to Qian's house to look for trouble."
Wei Gu led his men into the courtyard, but there was nothing he could do about the iron wooden door.
Because according to the rules, every time you come to get food and unlock the door, you need two people to hold the key to open it. One key is with him and the other key is with the butler.
But there was no need for a key now, because Wei Gu had already seen the thick smoke coming out of the leak in the roof and smelled the smell of burning food.
It’s over!
Wei Gu looked at the billowing black smoke. He hurriedly and slowly failed to stop it. The fire was spreading too fast. It seemed that these people had been prepared.
Wei Gu didn't care how the enemy came in. What he had to do now was to quickly put out the fire and catch the thief, so as to reduce his guilt.
Otherwise, even if Wei Gu had nine lives, it would be of no use.
As for escaping, Wei Gu never thought about it. His wife and children were still working in the Qian family, and the Qian family had hostages.
Originally, Wei Gu wanted to talk to the people inside. This could delay time, and maybe the other party would figure it out after seeing the manpower on his side?
Furthermore, the bow Wei Gu carried on his back was not a decoration. Before he became a guard, he was a hunter in the mountains. He could shoot through the trees with a hundred steps and his archery skills were excellent. As long as the opponent showed up, he would not be able to escape from his grasp.
But now he just wants to cut the person who set the fire into pieces with a thousand knives.
Wei Gu knew that there were definitely not many people inside. They were not eating dry food outside. How could there be so many people sneaking in and setting fire to the food? It was impossible for them not to notice it at all, but there was definitely a light kung fu master inside.
This is why Wei Gu ordered the deputy chief to bring most of his men to guard outside the courtyard.
At this time, billowing black smoke came out of the hole, but no one was seen coming out of it.
Wei Gu guessed that the thief inside must have noticed the movement outside and did not dare to come out. However, under such thick smoke, if he did not come out, he would have no choice but to be smoked to death inside. This little thief should soon die. Will come out.
Wei Gu took down the long bow, took out a long arrow from the bow pouch, cocked the bow and aimed it at the roof.
Wei Gu was confident that as long as someone came out, no one could escape from his bow.
