The blazing flames rose up, causing the surrounding residents to flee wildly outside. However, after seeing Li Changqing and his group, they were so frightened that they ran in the other direction, and no one dared to say anything.
And because this is a place where poor people live, coupled with the terrain here, it is destined that even if someone knows that there is a fire here, no one will pay attention.
After all, they are just poor people, and people die every day because they cannot bear the cold and hunger. However, for those who are sensual and have no worries about food and wine, they will not care about the life and death of the poor at all.
"Haha, damn girl, you stole my son's things, and I killed your relatives. This is not too much, haha..."
Looking at the blazing flames, Li Changqing laughed proudly.
And because this is a slum area, the houses are dilapidated and made of wooden materials. Although there is no wind at this time, they burn out quickly and billowing black smoke rises.
The old woman and the two children among them were unable to escape and were burned alive by the fire.
The old woman was old and her legs and feet were not very flexible. In addition, she was kicked by Li Changqing and fell heavily to the ground.
She wanted to stand up and send the two children out, but her physical strength did not support her at all. She spurted out a mouthful of blood and died first.
The two children were so frightened by the ferociousness and flames of Li Changqing and others that they did not dare to move. They both knelt down in front of their grandma and cried.
Usually every time they call grandma, grandma will answer no matter what she is doing, but this time, no matter how they call, grandma never responds.
Looking at the kind grandmother who accompanies him every day, let alone whether they have the ability to escape from the raging flames, even if they can escape, they will not leave.
And just before, after Xiao Yu walked out of here, she never thought that anyone would pay attention to her and tip off Li Changqing.
I saw her walking swaggering, playing with a ring of unknown material in her hand, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
"That man looked well-dressed, but he turned out to be a poor man. He had nothing but a ring like this, and I don't know how much it could be exchanged for?"
As Xiaoyu walked, she imagined that after she exchanged the ring in her hand for money and bought more effective medicine for her grandma, she would never do this again. She would stay with her grandma and be filial to her old man.
At this moment, she heard a burst of urgent footsteps behind her. Xiao Yu immediately put away the ring she was playing with, turned around and looked back.
It didn't matter if she didn't look at it, but she was startled when she saw it. She saw black smoke billowing not far away, and the smell of burning flames came straight to her face.
When Xiaoyu saw this, she couldn't help but look away and said anxiously: "Grandma, grandma..."
"Xiao Yu, don't go there. There are a few people coming to your home. They seem to be the young masters of the Li family. They are looking for you like crazy. Please leave quickly."
As soon as Xiao Yu ran back, she bumped into the owner who had made urgent footsteps before. Who else could it be if she wasn't her neighbor?
"No, you go, I'm going to save grandma..." Xiaoyu shook her head and directly rejected their kindness.
"Xiaoyu, we know you are a filial and good boy, but have you seen the burning flames? That is your home. Not only will you not be able to save your grandma if you go there, but you will also be caught by Li Changqing. So, grandma It's a waste of time. You have to understand that the reason why you are still standing here is all because of grandma's sacrifice. Let's go, don't let grandma live up to her expectations of you."
A middle-aged woman stopped his earnest persuasion.
"No, thank you Aunt Liu. Grandma is very kind to me. No matter what, I will save her. Even if grandma is dead now, I can't watch her body being burned."
Looking at Aunt Liu in front of her, Xiaoyu shook her head resolutely, resolutely missed Aunt Liu's figure and ran towards the place where the flames were burning.
"Hey, this kid Xiaoyu..." Aunt Liu sighed helplessly when she saw this, not knowing what to say.
"Hey, let's go. That Mr. Li is famous for being domineering in Tianyun City. Many people from big families dare not offend him. In his eyes, we are nothing at all. This time, we don't know. Why did Xiaoyu offend him? Hey..."
The people next to Aunt Liu also sighed. They were helpless about what happened to Grandma Xiaoyu. Now they have done what they can. Since Xiaoyu insisted on going, they also
There is no way.
"Sir, the fire is out, are we still waiting?" Looking at the extinguished flames in front of him, one of the men said respectfully to Li Changqing.
"Wait a minute, this slum is so big, that dead girl will definitely show up..."
"Sir, look quickly, that damn girl is indeed here,"
Before Li Changqing could finish his words, he heard another man pointing to one side and saying.
Hearing this, Li Changqing's eyes turned cold. As expected, he saw Xiao Yu running madly towards here, and immediately shouted: "Go and catch her. If she dares to steal my things, I will make her regret her life."
"Go away, let me go, grandma, grandma..." Xiaoyu, who was running crazily, didn't know where the strength came from, and rushed past the two strong men's obstruction until the flames were extinguished. He knelt down in front of a burnt corpse and cried loudly.
"Idiot, you can't even stop a little girl, what use do I need from you?" Li Changqing was furious when he saw this.
The two strong men were also extremely surprised, obviously they did not expect such a situation to occur.
Facing Li Changqing's angry shouts, although they were unhappy, they did not dare to say anything. After all, when staying in front of Li Changqing, they would inevitably be scolded and sometimes even beaten by Li Changqing.
But in terms of treatment, Li Changqing did not treat them badly, and usually gave them no less benefits. Therefore, even though Li Changqing treated them like this, they worked hard not only to have the support of the Li family behind them, but also to live a better life.
The two looked at each other and came directly behind Xiao Yu. One person held down Xiao Yu's shoulders, grabbed her arm, and pushed her in front of Li Changqing.
Xiaoyu's hands were violently clasped behind his back. Once he resisted, he would feel extreme pain in his arms. He could not move at all and could only cry crazily.
However, her cries were extremely comforting to Li Changqing's ears. He immediately slapped Xiao Yu on the face and said coldly: "You stinky girl, you stole something on my head. You said, yes Who gave you the courage to do this?"
"Ah, please give my grandma her life..." Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu seemed to have not heard Li Changqing's voice at all. She leaned forward suddenly and bit Li Changqing's finger.
"Ah! If you dare to bite me, I will beat you to death..." Xiaoyu's sudden move made Li Changqing scream and slap him fiercely, and even ordered his subordinates to hit him hard. .
"Um, ah..." Xiao Yu's screams kept ringing out, causing people on this street to run away. The doors were closed tightly, and no one dared to come out to stop them.
After a while, Xiaoyu's thin body was beaten to pieces by several strong men, and the flesh was dripping with blood. The whole thin body was curled up on the ground. It was so miserable.
When Li Changqing saw that it was almost done, he immediately raised his hand and said, "Okay, don't beat her to death. I still have something to ask her."
Immediately, he lifted up Xiaoyu who was curled up like a puddle of mud on the ground and shouted: "Tell me, where did you put my key? If you don't tell me, your grandmother's body will be with those of the two children." The body, I cannot guarantee whether it is intact."
"What, you devil, you are so poisonous, I will never tell you where the key is hidden even if I die..."
Before Xiao Yu could finish her words, she received another slap from Li Changqing, but now she felt no pain at all.
"I want you to be tough, don't say yes, come on, go and bring the old woman's body to me, I will cut her into pieces..."
Li Changqing said, almost to the extreme of anger. You must know that the key is very important to him, but he almost lost his life to get it.
And behind this key, it is said that there is a great treasure that has been hidden for thousands of years. By coincidence, he happened to get a map many years ago.
Following the instructions on the map and going through many hardships, he finally found the place where the treasure was hidden, but he couldn't go in because there was an iron door outside the treasure cave with a huge lock on it.
He had tried countless methods but could not open it. He guessed that he could only open it by finding a suitable key.
And when they were trying to figure out how to open the lock, the news was revealed. Many people knew about the treasure cave.
However, although he was forced by everyone to say it
The location of the treasure cave.
But even though he said it, there was a trace of expectation in his heart. After all, he had had enough of the feeling that there was an empty treasure but could not be opened.
If these people can open the treasure cave, then what's the harm in distributing some of the treasures?
It's just that the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. Although many people came this time, they still failed to open the lock, even with the combined efforts of everyone.
Therefore, a frenzy of searching for the key erupted in Tianyun City.
It's just that the search for many years has been fruitless. Today, many people have forgotten about the treasure cave, and there are also many fewer people looking for the key.
But Li Changqing never forgot it for a moment. Finally, Huang Tian paid off and he finally found the key in a dangerous place.
But just when he was so proud and ready to go to the treasure place to open the treasure, he met Xiao Yu, a thief in the city, and she accidentally stole the key.
I thought that I would soon be able to honor my ancestors and the lintel of the gate, and become the new generation overlord of Tianyun City.
However, although this is just his fantasy, in his opinion, it will be realized soon.
However, before he could realize it, his fantasy was extinguished by the little girl in front of him. Who can bear the feeling of having his fantasy shattered?
Therefore, no matter what others think, Li Changqing feels that what he did is not excessive or wrong at all. He just wants to get back what he has exchanged for his life.
As his voice fell, his two men had already walked to the old woman's body. Facing the charred corpse, they both showed ugly expressions. No one wanted to make a move first. .
"What are you still lingering on? You haven't made a move yet?" Li Changqing saw that the two of them were standing in front of the old woman and had not made a move, so he couldn't help but urge,
When the two heard this, they really had no other choice. They immediately raised their minds and held their breaths.
"Wait a minute, I said, I said..." At this moment, Xiaoyu spoke, and his weak voice slowly sounded. Li Changqing was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately said to the two of them: "Don't move yet."
The two strong men were relieved upon hearing this and ran back immediately with smiles on their faces.
"Tell me, where did you hide my master's key?" Upon seeing this, Li Changqing immediately asked Xiaoyu.
"Haha, if you want to get the key, you can do it in the next life..." Xiaoyu sneered when he heard this. After that, he took one last look at the old woman's body, suddenly broke away from the control of the two strong men, and resolutely crashed into the wall not far away. .
"Damn it!" Li Changqing was furious when he saw this, and immediately shouted: "You want to die, have you obtained my consent? Come back to me..."
Hearing a bang, Xiao Yu failed to hit the wall as expected. Instead, he was bounced back by a barrier issued by Li Changqing, and fell heavily in front of Li Changqing.
Seeing this, Li Changqing stepped on Xiao Yu's chest and kicked him violently. Then he jumped up and kicked him again. He stepped on Xiao Yu's body and suddenly fell to the ground.
Just hearing the rumbling explosions, Xiaoyu's body was a mess of flesh and blood, and it was too horrible to look at.
"Hmph, bring it back to me. I will torture her until she tells the whereabouts of the key."
Glancing at Xiaoyu coldly, Li Changqing left angrily.
"Wait a minute, this person took something of mine. Since you have subdued him, please return it to me."
However, at this moment, a calm but thunderous voice sounded, and a black figure blocked Li Changqing's path.
"Is it you?" When Li Changqing heard this, he immediately recognized who the black figure was. It was Ye Lingfeng who he had asked to stop Xiao Yu but failed to stop him.
He couldn't help but sneered and said: "You still have the nerve to say that I told you that she was a thief, but you didn't believe it, and now you come to ask for it from me. Do you know who I am? It is always me who asks for help from others." Yes, no one has ever dared to ask me for it, I’m afraid you have just arrived in Tianyun City.”
"Yes, I have just arrived here, and I don't know who you are, but my things are indeed missing, and you beat her like this, can I still wake her up? So, my things are naturally yours. Come back." Ye Lingfeng was calm and explained the matter clearly, not allowing Li Changqing to lie.
