"There's a fire, please help..."
"There's a fire, put out the fire quickly..."
"Oh, my eyes! They're ruined."
…………
When Chu Feng came out, he happened to see countless people running out of the west building, staggering, falling and getting up, panicking. At the same time, billowing black smoke came out of the building, shouts for help, and yelling. The sound was a mess.
It was a dry autumn at this time, and the night wind fanned the flames even further. The entire west building turned into a fire building for a while, and the flames spurted out and continuously hit other buildings.
Chu Feng came downstairs, clasped his fingers together, and frowned slightly. After a while, something like this happened. The voice said it was Madam Xiangling. Could it be that she was the woman who was humiliated by Zhao Kuangyin just now? So she said that this matter had something to do with him. .
"Taoist priest, such a big fire is killing me. Leave quickly."
An anxious voice came from the side.
When Chu Feng heard the sound, he looked over and saw that it was the shrewd waiter before. He saw that his face was pitch black, he was breathing heavily, and his body was burned to pieces and he was in a miserable state.
"It's a pity that Madam Xiangling was so angry that she knocked over the candlestick, causing a fire and trapping herself in it. Oh no, Madam Xiangling is about to jump off the building. What's wrong with this!"
The waiter was so anxious that he jumped up and down.
Chu Feng followed the waiter's gaze and saw where the firelight and white smoke intertwined on the third floor. A woman with disheveled hair was riding tremblingly on the guardrail, ready to jump down.
Chu Feng quickly recited a spell. Once, the wind and clouds in the sky suddenly changed, and dark clouds rolled in, covering the moon. The second time, strong winds hit, flying sand and rocks. Tables and chairs between the buildings were blown around, and pedestrians were thrown into a ball. Thunder rolled three times, and heavy rain fell from the sky, suppressing the raging fire.
Xiang Ling, who was about to jump off the building, looked up at the sky, her rain-covered face full of surprise.
The waiter looked at Chu Feng with a ghostly look on his face. Just now he clearly heard Chu Feng reciting a spell, and every time he recited it, the scene in the sky changed. If he hadn't come to his senses yet, he would have already knelt down.
The people who escaped from the west building and the people on the other four buildings cheered. The rain came just in time.
Just when everyone thought everything was fine, the west building began to shake, making an unpleasant creaking sound, and looked like it was about to collapse.
"Look, Madam Xiangling"
"Ms. Xiangling is still up there."
…………
Many people shouted, looking very anxious.
Xiang Ling's face turned pale as she was riding on the railing. She had just escaped from the crisis, and in the blink of an eye she had to face a life-or-death decision. How cruel it was for a girl under twenty years old.
"Help, someone come and save the slave family!"
"Help, someone come and save the slave family!"
…………
Xiangling shouted sadly.
Everyone wanted to save them, but they were afraid of the West Tower that was about to collapse and didn't dare to get close.
Just when Xiang Ling was about to jump off, the west building was like a building block on the sand, collapsed by the waves, stirring up bursts of smoke and dust, and Xiang Ling screamed and was submerged in it.
At this moment, a man in fluttering clothes flew by, holding Xiang Ling's weak and boneless body, leaping out of the ruins area and slowly landing on the ground.
Their eyes met, Xiangling's face gradually turned red from pale, as if she was about to drip blood, her breathing was very rapid, and the scenery under her clothes was constantly rising and falling. She hugged the visitor's neck tightly with both hands, refusing to let go.
"Taoist Master, thank you for saving the slave family!"
Chu Feng coughed dryly and let go of Xiang Ling with an abnormal expression.
Waves of cheers rang out from other buildings.
"Master Taoist, a man of great skill is bold."
"Therefore, there was a fierce general who broke into the battle to become a beauty, but now a Taoist priest flew to save the sweet lady."
"Brother Sun, you are so talented in literature..."
At this time, the waiter on the side said in shock: "Sister Xiangling, hurry up, mother is here, and she will definitely come to take care of you."
"Xiang Ling, you are so brave. You actually burned down my west building. Let's see if I don't beat you to death today."
Among the crowd, a tall, fat woman with jingling jade pendants and pearls all over her body ran over in anger, looking like she was going to eat someone.
Xiang Ling's face turned pale as her mind was filled with excitement. She was so frightened that she hid behind Chu Feng, trembling. She had been in too much trouble today, and her heart was filled with regret and despair.
"Stinky Taoist, get out of here"
The fat woman was so full of energy that she didn't pay any attention to Chu Feng who had just made an astonishing move.
"Teach her a lesson"
Chu Feng said casually to the fat woman.
The fat woman's expression froze, and she turned around in confusion. Before she could see the person clearly, she was hit in the face by a fist. She flew backwards, smashing the tables and chairs in the yard. After landing, she vomited. He was bleeding and died on the spot.
"It's an official family"
"It's actually an official family"
"The officials beat someone to death"
"The official's strength is as great as that of Lu Zhishen who uprooted a weeping willow tree."
…………
The people around and on the building screamed, as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
Zhao Kuangyin, pretending to be Song Huizong, looked around and said coldly: "Who saw me beating someone to death?"
The surroundings suddenly fell silent. As the old saying goes, princes who break the law are guilty of the same crimes as the common people, but they never said how the emperor should be punished for breaking the law. The scene was surprisingly cold.
On the building next to the end, someone shouted.
"I testify that it was the madam who failed to stand firm and fell to death."
"I can also testify"
"I bear witness"
…………
Soon, almost everyone around him shouted that it was the madam who failed to stand firm and fell to death.
Zhao Kuangyin came to Chu Feng with a calm expression, cupped his hands and said: "I came a step too late, and I almost let this common man disturb the immortal."
Chu Feng nodded and pulled Xiang Ling out.
"This woman was upset because someone scolded her, and she accidentally started a fire. How are you going to solve it?"
Zhao Kuangyin looked astonished when he saw Xiang Ling. Isn't this the woman he just scolded for being vulgar? In fact, this woman is not ugly at all, but very beautiful. What she said just now is just an excuse for Master Li. .
"In this way, from today on, you will be the shopkeeper of Fanlou."
As soon as Zhao Kuangyin said this, the whole place was in an uproar. Fan Lou was the number one gold sales cave in the Song Dynasty. All the civil and military officials in the dynasty were rich, and the position of shopkeeper had always been filled by people from each family in turn. Now he was actually let. For a girl under twenty years old to do this, it’s amazing.
"This arrangement is very good. Don't let others have trouble in their lives again."
After saying this, Chu Feng turned around and walked out.
"Taoist Priest..."
Xiangling shouted and knelt on the ground with tears in her eyes.
Chu Feng didn't stop at all, and disappeared in just a few breaths.
………………
The next day, the sun was shining brightly and the sky was blue. A six-foot-high platform was built outside the Daqing Hall where the meetings were held, and an incense table was placed. Zhao Kuangyin, who was pretending to be Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, led all the civil and military officials to kneel down and wait.
At three quarters of the hour, the sky suddenly changed, with lightning and thunder. After a while, it returned to calm. Purple air filled the sky, and an auspicious cloud floated from the sky.
