Chart Topper Queen

Chapter 76: Promotion: Leaping over the Palace (18)

The folk customs in the small town are simple, and the streets are full of hawking. At the beginning of the summer heat wave, there were many people sitting in the teahouse. As soon as Mr. Storyteller moistened his throat and was about to speak, the limelight was robbed by the gangsters in the vicinity.

"Hey, I heard that a fierce beast came from outside the city in the morning. Its body is as high as half of the city wall, its eyes are as big as the city gate, and it will glow red..."

"No way, such a powerful beast has only been seen in books."

Whispers among the guests.

"Why is it impossible!" The little **** kicked on the bench and stood up, he wiped his mouth, wiped the oil on his clothes, patted the table and said, "My third Wang saw it with his own eyes, the beast not only It looks frightening, and its roar is also extremely fierce. The most frightening thing is the speed of its running. Tsk tsk, the guard on duty saw it from a distance, and his face changed greatly and he was about to close the city gate, but in the blink of an eye, it was killed in front of him. "

"It was too late to close the city gate, so they had to stop the wooden fence in front of them. Guess what."

"What's going on?!"

"The beast swooped in front of him, smashed the wooden fence that was not in place, and rushed towards the guard. At that time, the distance between the two was only one point. It stared at the guard so straight, its eyes dripping. Blood!"

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.

The little gangster laughed and looked smug, as if he was the majestic beast.

"No, isn't that dead?"

The teahouse became noisy for a while, and everyone was afraid.

The little **** waved his hand, "It didn't die, it didn't eat people."

"Didn't eat people? Wang Er, are you talking nonsense, such a terrifying beast actually doesn't hurt people. Could it be that you were just joking?"

"That's right, oh, you usually like to talk big and make up stories. Why are you here to scare us early in the morning? I was so scared that I didn't swallow the cake and almost choked to death."

"This..." The little gangster was forced to retreat by the crowd, and he said at a loss, "Anyway, it didn't eat people, and I didn't see what happened later."

It's fresh,

Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, the little brother next to the gangster became anxious and said, "My eldest brother didn't lie, he was, that was, he ran away to save his life, so he didn't see it, but what he said before was all that. it is true!"

This time it was everyone's turn to laugh.

This makes sense, but after thinking about it carefully, he said that the beast was scary looking, ran fast, and had blood dripping from its eyes, but it didn't eat people, and could let him escape. Hair" beast.

Naturally, they didn't believe it, so they listened to music, ate tea and watched a play.

The little **** hit his younger brother on the head angrily, "Who asked you to say this!"

It was arguing and laughing when suddenly someone shouted, "Zhang Shoubei's house has run out of water."

"what?"

Everyone stood up.

People in small places have harmonious relations with their neighbors. Even small gangsters are orphans without their mothers. They were raised by neighbors in the streets. They are only recognized as small gangsters because they don’t have a serious job. Do evil things. Zhang Shoubei, who was in charge of the town, was also a good official who was self-denying, devoted to the public, and loved the people like a son. The people under his command loved him, and he was naturally nervous when he heard it.

They looked south of the city, and in the distance, they saw smoke rising up.

The warmhearted one immediately said, "Let's help!"

"Why don't you help? There is still a long way to go to the south of the city. When we get there, the fire will be extinguished."

"In other words, the garrison has a water tank at home and should be able to rescue him in time."

"I can't say that. The news has spread here, and I can still see the smoke over there. I'm afraid the fire is not small..."

Just as everyone was anxious and worried, they suddenly saw a fierce beast passing by like a gust of wind.

"That's it!" the little gangster whispered, "that's what I saw this morning!"

Ai Bei didn't want to drive "through the gate" at first. In her imagination, she should drive the car to the gate of the city, and then they communicated peacefully with the guards. But she saw that this official road was relatively flat and open, so she gave the car to the third prince to drive.

The third prince, Zhao Yuanying, was very cautious at first, but then he started quickly, and the more he opened, the more confident he became. When he got to the city gate, when he saw that the road was going to be blocked, he was in a hurry. He wanted to enter the city before the wooden fence was put down, and stepped on it Throttle, immediately broke through the wooden fence. Fortunately, at the critical moment, he stepped on the brakes and stopped before hitting the guard, but the guard who faced the "beast" was also stunned.

The other guards raised their knives with knives in their hands, ropes with ropes, and hurriedly grabbed tools for hunting wild beasts, watching the car vigilantly, not daring to act rashly.

When they got out of the car, everyone else would just stare at them, as if they had been tapped. The guards in the city arrived at this time, and they were also ready to fight, ordering everyone to fight the enemy together.

"Hey, this is not what I thought." Ai Bei tilted his head.

Zhao Yuanying: "What do you think?"

"The immortals are coming, everyone welcomes them?"

"Pfft—" Zhao Yuanying almost spit out a sip of soda, but he didn't look nervous, and he casually raised a can to drink water, "Let me just say, I will definitely be caught as a monster."

"If you hadn't crashed into someone's fence and almost hit someone, how could you be treated as a monster." Ai Bei snorted, "You take full responsibility."

"Okay, I'll be in charge. Don't worry, just show your identity when necessary. Although it's a little tricky, the news here is slow, and the second brother may not know." He turned and asked his brother, "Brother, you said yes Bar?"

Zhao Yuanlang is not as leisurely as he is, and he is not nervous. Instead, he is thinking about how to deal with the situation. Hearing this, he glanced at Ai Bei and nodded reassuringly.

During the confrontation between the two sides and the "friendly conversation", a person came to report on horseback and reported the news of the fire in Zhang Guard's home. Zhang Shoubei was steady, and made people retreat. He didn't mean to relax his vigilance at all, as if he really regarded them as evildoers who harmed the people, for fear of taking a step back and endangering the people of a city.

"Aren't you going back to put out the fire?" Ai Bei asked, "Don't worry, we don't eat people."

It's good that she didn't mention this, but when she mentioned "cannibalism", the other party's expression immediately became more nervous. After all, except for the courageous and receptive people like the two Zhao brothers, it is difficult for ordinary people to digest her "special setting".

Zhao Yuanying suddenly thought of something and asked her, "Can you put out the fire?"

"Ok?"

"It's not always like this in fairy tales. The immortal waved his sleeves, and the rain fell from the sky, and the fire was extinguished."

Abe: "..."

Zhao Yuanlang tapped his younger brother on the head, "Don't embarrass others, our little immortal is only afraid that he will not practice spells for a long time." After a series of events, his mood was much clearer than before, and there were more jokes along the way. .

Ai Bei was reminded by them, but he thought of something, and said to Zhang Shoubei: "We will help you put out the fire, will you believe that we have no ill intentions?"

The roads in the border towns are wide, unlike the capital city where every inch of land is expensive, and the carriages and horses are unimpeded all the way. Ai Bei and the others arrived before Zhang Guard's horse. She opened the trunk of the car, took out two sets of fire extinguishers, protective clothing and smoke masks, and stuffed one set directly into the prince's arms. She just exchanged this, not all for entering the city, but when the enthusiastic audience in the barrage heard the fire, they immediately rewarded her with a large amount of money to exchange fire extinguishing tools, hoping that she would go out to put out the fire.

The prince was startled.

Zhao Yuanying also said: "Are you going to enter the fire, or I will come."

"It's not necessarily useful, let's put it on."

The people in Zhang Shoubei's mansion were already busy, and the surrounding people also came to help, so the gate of the mansion was wide open, allowing them to come and go. When Ai Bei drove there, a group of people were so frightened that they hid in the alley, and some people rushed into the mansion and shouted, "No, the beast is eating people!"

It made the already chaotic scene even more chaotic.

The rules in the garrison are very strict. If it is an ordinary fire, even if the fire extinguishing speed is slow, it will not cause chaos. But this time it was different. The two young masters in the mansion were trapped in the room. The mistress of the house almost fainted, and she forced someone to put out the fire with a pale face.

The room where the accident happened was in the grandmother's room where the two passed away. The maid was doing needlework and forgot to put out the candle. The two children missed their grandmother and ran in. At this time, the wind helped the fire, and the candles had already lit the curtain. It was too late to escape when he found the water.

"Son!" Mrs. Zhang cried heart-breakingly, "Come on someone, whoever goes in and saves my son will be rewarded heavily."

Everyone hesitated to look at each other, but did not dare to go to the previous one. With such a fire now, no one dares to go in to save people, but they are afraid that people will not be rescued, but they will put themselves in.

"Madam! There are beasts out there that are about to break in and eat people!" The next man stumbled to report the news.

Mrs. Zhang was in the mood to listen to him, but at this moment, three people dressed in strange Ai Bei walked in, and the servant fell to the ground in fright, and even climbed back, pointing at them, "This is , This is the man who spit out from the mouth of the beast!"

"A person who spit out from the mouth of a beast." Ai Bei glanced at him, turned to Mrs. Zhang and said, "Isn't it looking for someone to put out the fire, I'm here to put out the fire."

"you……"

She was horrified, not knowing whether they were human or demon, but she gritted her teeth, "If you can save my son, it's okay to give my life to you!"

Ai Bei made an ok gesture and was about to go in, but she heard the other party add: "If it's too late, save the boy first."

No one in the room felt that this was wrong. Abe's footsteps paused.

Everyone saw what looked like a pipe in her hand, and mist-like water was sprayed out of it. Wherever it was poured, the flames were subdued and gave her a path.

Zhao Yuanying was a little worried at the moment. Even though she knew she was an immortal, the fire was ruthless, and it was not as simple as waving her sleeves to save people. When he saw her going deep into the burning house, he unknowingly raised his heart.

Fortunately, not long after, she came out with a child.

It's a girl.

Just as Mrs. Zhang was about to breathe a sigh of relief, when she saw the child, she suddenly widened her eyes and said in disbelief, "Didn't I ask you to save the boy first?!"

"She's close, it's easy to save." Ai Bei shoved the child into the hand of the maid, and the little girl inhaled the smoke and was already unconscious.

The tone of her words made Zhao Yuanlang stunned. Such an argument seems to have been heard before.
