Chapter 393: Ghost Wall

After Ling Chu woke up from her dream, she heard shouts from outside.

She immediately opened the system to check.

Through the system, she saw the flames rising into the sky.

Many people were running back and forth with basins and buckets to put out the fire.

In the burning fire, there was a hideous and strange black shadow struggling fiercely.

Ling Chu frowned, it turned out to be a resentful spirit.

Without time to sigh about the twists and turns encountered along the way, Ling Chu quickly turned over and got out of bed.

Put on shoes, put on outer clothes, and walked out.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Yin Sha standing at the door with his hands raised, looking like he was about to knock on the door.

"Brother Yin."

Yin Sha was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Did the princess hear the noise outside? I came here to tell you that the workshop in the back street caught fire.

But don't worry, the adults took people to put out the fire."

Although the fire was close to the inn, Yin Sha was not too worried.

The emperor was in the inn, and most of the imperial guards followed Ning Chuyi to put out the fire.

They were many, and they discovered the fire just when it started. I believe it won't take long for the fire to be put out.

He came to find Ling Chu, but Ning Chuyi thought that she would be worried when she heard the noise outside, so he asked him to come and tell her.

I thought that after hearing his words, the princess would return to her room to continue resting.

Unexpectedly, she walked out quickly, saying, "This fire is unusual. There is something dirty at work. Water alone is probably useless.

I will help the adults put out the fire. Brother Yin will remind Eunuch An and others to pack up their things first.

If the fire can't be put out, the emperor must evacuate in time."

Yin Sha's eyes condensed. He has known Ling Chu for a while, and he knows her ability. At this time, he did not doubt her words.

"Okay, I'll go to find Eunuch An first. The fire is ruthless, and the princess must be more careful."

Ling Chu hurriedly responded and left the inn.

The place where the fire started was only one street away from the inn, which was a wax workshop.

There was only one inn in Yangqu County, with less than 20 rooms in total, which could not accommodate so many imperial guards.

There were not enough guest rooms, so Commander Pang had to disperse the other imperial guards around the inn.

In order to protect the emperor, the imperial guards lived not far away.

Commander Pang asked people to take silver and rent houses around the inn for the imperial guards to live in.

The wax workshop in the back street was large and close, so they also rented it.

Originally, the imperial guards were quite happy to learn that the workers in the wax workshop happened to be on holiday and they could rent the room to them.

But now, they regretted it so much that their intestines turned green.

After running on the road for several days in a row, the imperial guards were also very tired.

It was not easy to stop and rest for a night, and everyone was very happy.

The guards were arranged at night, and the remaining imperial guards fell asleep quickly.

But thinking that they had just laid down for a while, the fire broke out.

In fact, when they first learned that the wax shop was on fire, these imperial guards were not too worried, after all, there were more than 30 people living here.

With so many imperial guards here, they could put out a little fire with just a wave of their hands.

Although they were not worried, everyone knew that the emperor lived in the inn next door, so they did not dare to take it lightly.

They quickly got up and tried their best to fetch water to put out the fire.

However, looking at the scene in front of them, everyone's backs were cold.

"Why do I feel that this fire seems to be unextinguishable?"

"Not only can it not be extinguished, I feel that the more water is poured, the bigger the fire will burn."

"This fire... is indeed a bit weird. Have you noticed that the black smoke over there looks like a person waving his fangs and claws?"

If the imperial guards hadn't said it, others would not have noticed it.

But now, looking in the direction of his finger, everyone's hair stood on end in an instant.

It is more accurate to say that the waving black smoke looks like a ghost rather than a person.

Are they... possessed by evil spirits?

Not only the people in the wax shop have this idea.

People outside the wax shop are also uneasy.

Hearing the fire, Ning Chuyi left Commander Pang and some of the imperial guards in the inn to protect the emperor, and immediately rushed over with the remaining men.

The imperial guards who were scattered around the inn, worried that the fire would spread to the inn, also rushed over to put out the fire.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the wax shop where the fire had caught fire, they saw that the door was closed.

Ning Chuyi frowned and motioned Wei Feng to go forward and knock on the door.

Knock, knock, knock.

He knocked several times but no one came to open the door.

Worried that the people inside could not hear him, Wei Feng changed to slapping hard, and at the same time shouted for the people inside to open the door.

Unexpectedly, after knocking more than ten times, the door was still closed.

No sound was heard from the wax shop.

This is not right.

Ordinarily, even if the imperial guards living inside were busy putting out the fire, they should have asked someone to open the door when they heard them coming.

Wei Feng muttered in his heart, could it be that everyone inside was burned to death?

Ning Chuyi made a prompt decision, "Kick the door open."

"Yes, sir." Wei Feng responded and kicked it.

Bang!

The door opened suddenly.

Everyone saw that the wax shop was filled with thick smoke.

Maybe the smoke was too thick. Apart from the flames rising in the sky, it was impossible to see what was going on inside.

"Sir, I'll go in and take a look first." Wei Feng called out, and walked in without waiting for Ning Chuyi to speak.

Several imperial guards around him also hurriedly followed in.

With such a big fire, Ning Chuyi would naturally not just stay outside and wait.

He raised his feet and walked towards the door.

The Forbidden Army behind him, as well as the surrounding crowd who came after hearing the news, were also ready to go in and help put out the fire.

However, as soon as everyone took two steps, they saw Wei Feng, who was leading the group, stepping out of the wax workshop.

Ning Chuyi frowned subconsciously.

Meeting his gaze, Wei Feng was stunned.

Then he saw the familiar scene outside the gate, and his eyes widened in surprise.

"Sir...Sir, I was obviously going in, why did I come out?"

Wei Feng was so surprised that he stuttered a bit and even forgot his subordinate's self-identification.

Seeing Ning Chuyi looking at him with a cold face, Wei Feng reached out and patted his forehead, and said awkwardly, "My subordinate may not have woken up just now and was confused."

After explaining, he turned around and walked back.

But as soon as he turned around, he blurted out, "Why are you guys out too?"

The three Imperial Guards who had just followed him in were now standing in front of him.

Seeing Wei Feng, they were confused.

But when he found that they were standing at the door, his eyes widened in surprise, "We... we are obviously going to the wax workshop."

Wei Feng opened his mouth and looked back and forth between the three forbidden soldiers in front of him and the black smoke in the wax workshop.

Suddenly he stretched out his hand to push away the person in front of him, raised his feet and walked inside.

However, Wei Feng soon stepped in and stepped out again.

At this time, everyone's jaws almost dropped to the ground in shock.

The three Imperial Guards next to them looked at each other and tried it in disbelief.

But the result left them confused.

I can't get into this wax workshop?

The crowd was silent for a while, and suddenly someone said in horror, "This... this... this is a ghost beating the wall!"
