Chapter 163 Burning the Restaurant
Several people understood that they wanted to leave when no one thought they would leave like this.
It's just that a few people don't understand, and they don't have much contact with Shao Pingbo. Why did the Taoist think that Shao Pingbo is dangerous?
Niu Youdao didn't bother with them, walked to the long row of vegetable tables, leaned over and grabbed a guard on the floor, lifted a board cover, and could see the river below.
This kitchen is not small, like a restaurant, half on the shore and half on the water.
And the reason why there is such a gap in the kitchen is the place where the kitchen waste is dumped, and the garbage after the kitchen is cleaned is directly discharged into the river through this hole.
In fact, the domestic waste of the entire restaurant is directly discharged into this river. Niu Youdao observed it as soon as he entered the kitchen, and he noticed this from the beginning.
"Go! Try not to make any noise." Niu Youdao, who lifted the lid, urged.
Hei Mudan and others jumped down one by one, floated lightly into the water, and disappeared in the water.
Niu Youdao, who put the lid on, walked quickly to the door of the kitchen, and listened to the movement outside for a while. The reason why Hei Mudan and others were allowed to leave first was to test the situation. If Hei Mudan and others were discovered, he was still in the kitchen, so he could find an excuse to explain.
After confirming that there was no movement, he quickly went to the corner and lifted the lid of a wooden barrel.
The wooden barrel was full of kerosene for lighting the kitchen fire. I picked up the wooden barrel, found a ladle for scooping up water, and poured the kerosene directly onto the kitchen wall.
A hemp rope in the kitchen, soaked in kerosene, was thrown away with a shake, and one end was pulled to the entrance of the food waste dump, the fire was ignited to ignite the other end, and the floor cover where the food waste was dumped was lifted, jumped down by itself, quietly submerged into the river below and disappeared.
And the hemp rope soaked in kerosene had already been dyed with an open flame, and it went all the way to the corner of the wall along the rope, and when it burned to the corner, the fire also spread up the wooden wall panels splashed with kerosene, and spread to the surrounding walls.
After all, Tang Yi had that title with him, and Shao Pingbo still wanted him to cook for the two of them? He's not that generous!
Of course, he's not that stingy, he doesn't cook, he can cook a restaurant for you, it depends on whether you can continue to enjoy it.
At first, outsiders smelled the burnt smoke and thought it was fireworks in the kitchen. Later, they found something wrong. There was a lot of smoke coming out, and the smoke even went into the restaurant.
Someone immediately ran to the kitchen to see what was going on, only to see flames jumping out.
Kicking open the kitchen door, the kitchen was suddenly terrified, the kitchen was ventilated, the fire burst out, and the frightened monk flashed back.
Soon, people outside the restaurant also found that it was on fire.
"Fire! Fire!"
Someone shouted loudly, and the owner of the restaurant shouted hysterically. The entire restaurant is basically a wooden structure. It was built on the riverside to prevent moisture and was painted with a layer of tung oil. This fire will be over!
Shao Pingbo, who was discussing matters with several generals on the viewing platform, also noticed that there was thick smoke rising from the end of the restaurant, and the flames were blazing out.
The smoke drifted in, causing me to cough again and again.
A monk flashed over, "My lord, this restaurant is not safe, please move!"
Shao Pingbo shouted: "What's going on?"
The monk said: "The kitchen is on fire."
"Is that the kitchen?" Shao Pingbo was taken aback for a moment.
The river was already a place for running wind, and as soon as the tongue of fire came out to take advantage of the wind, it became a disaster immediately, and thick smoke gushed here.
The monk said: "My lord, the fire is hard to control, it's dangerous here, please move."
Shao Pingbo clenched his fists and coughed, swept the smoke with his sleeves, and strode back into the restaurant.
The thick smoke in the restaurant made it difficult to open his eyes, the monk grabbed his arm and quickly led him out.
The coughing people avoided the thick smoke when they got upwind, and then turned around. After a while, the thick smoke had already enveloped the entire restaurant, and the fire even enveloped a small half of the restaurant.
Shao Pingbo, who recovered from his cough, breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and asked, "Where are Zhang San and the others in the kitchen?"
A monk said: "My lord, they are monks anyway, this fire cannot catch them, and the source of the fire comes from the kitchen, logically, they should be able to put out the fire in time, so as not to expand the fire. In my opinion, they might have started the fire."
Shao Pingbo suddenly stared at the burning kitchen, his eyes were bright and frightening at that moment, showing coldness, and he glanced lightly at Tang Yi and the others beside him, then narrowed his eyes at the burning restaurant, and said lightly, but in an unquestionable tone, "I guess he ran away from the river, search!"
There are people guarding the shore, so it is impossible to run away, and someone will see it when they run out.
Hearing that the fire might have been set by Niu Youdao, Tang Yi and the others were stunned. After hearing Shao Pingbo's order, Tang Yi suddenly understood what Niu Youdao pointed to on the other side of the mountain forest.
"Yes!" Everyone took orders.
Tang Yi beckoned and led Tang Susu and Su Po to fly away in one direction. They flew across the river and took charge of the search in one direction.
They occupied this direction, and it is impossible for everyone to squeeze in this direction. The other search personnel naturally went in other directions.
Seeing that Tang Yi went out in person, Shao Pingbo glanced coldly, wrapped his arms around the cloak behind his back, put his hands behind his back, stared at Tang Yi's direction, his eyes flickered, and suddenly turned his head to point to Tang Yi's side to the two people around him, "You two follow her personally. Once you see Zhang San and the others, you don't need to ask any more questions. If you don't leave one of them, kill!"
A monk said: "My lord, that's a member of the Zhuge family, shouldn't it be right to kill him?"
Shao Pingbo looked coldly at the burning restaurant. According to the agreement, Zhang San and the others would let Zhang San and the others leave after finishing a meal. However, he had already discovered the abnormality of Tang Yi and Zhang San and the others, so he would not let them go easily. Naturally, he had to figure out what happened to Zhang San and the others and Tang Yi and the others.
Who would have thought that the other party would actually be able to set fire to a restaurant and escape, and let them go after they agreed to finish cooking, why would they take the risk of running away? There is only one reason, I am afraid that I can't go, so I have to run away!
I didn't change my face at all, and I didn't do anything, but someone saw through my mind!
Tang Yi and the others have been in contact with each other repeatedly, and he has a good idea. It is not Tang Yi and the others who see through his thoughts, but Zhang San and the others. As for which of these people, he is not yet completely sure.
However, this person who saw through his mind made him very uncomfortable, and even made him aware of an inexplicable danger, which is rare. He affirmed again in a deep voice: "I will be responsible for what happened, kill!"
"Yes!" The two Jindan cultivators flew away, flying all the way on the waves, chasing after Tang Yi.
It was almost evening, and the sunset glow in the sky was like a fire, but the restaurant by the river was really on fire.
On the bank of the river not far from the fire, under the sunset glow, Shao Pingbo stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes revealing a thoughtful expression.
"Eldest son, my restaurant! Eldest son, that is all my property! My whole family is counting on him to live!"
The owner of the restaurant ran over, knelt aside and wailed. It was because his property was good, but it was not all of it. He cried a little bit because he hoped that the eldest son would give him some compensation.
Shao Pingbo, who had disturbed his thoughts, glanced at the kneeling boss lightly, stepped aside, grabbed the sword at the waist of the general beside him, and pulled it out with a snap!
puff! The owner of the restaurant widened his eyes in disbelief, covered his chest with his hands, grasped the sword that had pierced his heart, and looked at Shao Pingbo, who was looking down indifferently, with trembling lips.
The sword was bloody, Shao Pingbo withdrew the sword and threw it aside, flung his cloak, turned and left.
The general at the side took the sword, inserted it back into the scabbard, turned around and followed quickly.
"For the matter of military supplies, there is no need to transfer them from the labor government. I have gone to the capital to get a batch of military supplies. After a while, I will send them to Beizhou. After the goods arrive, you will distribute them locally, and you will not have to go back and forth. Otherwise, the loss of tossing back and forth is not small, and you can save a little bit. There was a large-scale drought in Beizhou the year before, and floods this year.
"Of course, we are sandwiched between Zhao Hanyan and Zhao Hanyan. Armament is the first priority. If the governor treats anyone badly, he will not treat the brothers below. You can't let them go hungry. They will be reissued as soon as the food arrives. You have to persuade and appease the brothers below to persevere and overcome."
"Also, I must warn the people below that Beizhou is our foundation. The foundation cannot be messed up. No matter how difficult it is, we are not allowed to plunder the people. Banditry is not allowed to take advantage of the disaster in Beizhou. If the banditry is discovered, it must be wiped out as quickly as possible, and no disturbance to the people is allowed. Otherwise, the people will be scared away. What about the replanting of the fields after the disaster? Should I plant the land, or you? If they become disaster victims and flee, what about the source of soldiers?"
"If there are no people, it will be even more difficult in the coming year. It is not good for any of us, so this is a big deal. No one is allowed to interfere with the cultivation after the disaster. The relief food must be in place in time, and the grain seeds must be distributed in time. You must send people to supervise the local government. No one is allowed to steal it. If you find it, you can kill it first. Your relatives should also be restrained. If anyone dares to take advantage of the opportunity to make money for the country, I don’t care what it has to do with it. I will deal with it one by one! I might as well tell you clearly. Cutting off a batch of heads for others to show, don't bump into my knife, otherwise it will be useless for anyone to intercede."
"After this situation, we will be fine! Beizhou is our common Beizhou. You have to understand that this is for your own good. Let me take care of the people below!"
Shao Pingbo said as he walked.
"Yes! The eldest son is right!" The accompanying general responded.
By the riverside, Niu Youdao jumped out of the water and landed on the ground, Hei Mudan and others in the forest immediately stretched out their heads and shouted: "Master Dao, here!"
Niu Youdao looked back, saw the smoke column rising across the river, suddenly patted his head, and just sneaked away, why bother to burn the restaurant, and found that he was still emotionally affected by the couple of dogs and men, and failed to calm down and reason.
He quickly flashed into the forest, and waved: "Quick, go!"
In the past two days, I have tried to stabilize the update time.
