Chapter 785: Fire
"Don't forget to throw that bitch at the entrance of the village after it's done, so that everyone in the village can see it." Shen Lixia warned.
"rest assured!"
The three men don't know how to be sympathetic and sympathetic to jade. They use money to do things. Shen Lixia lit a fire. The northwest wind blew at night, and the fire gradually grew bigger and thick smoke billowed. The villagers were all asleep and did not notice the fire.
The Shen family's house is not a single house, but an old house of half brick and half wood. It was an old house bought by Huang Fengxian from someone who moved in the village. There are many houses next to each other, and they are all of brick and wood structure. In an old house, once one family catches fire, all the other ten families will suffer.
Standing outside the door, Shen Lixia began to panic when he saw the growing fire. Shen Yuzhu told him that when the house was half burned, he would start shouting to attract the attention of the villagers and create opportunities for the three gangsters.
But now, Shen Lixia couldn't wait for the fire to be halfway through. He was afraid that he would die if he was caught by the villagers before he could escape.
So, only a third of the fire burned, Shen Lixia couldn't stand it anymore, and started to shout, "It's on fire, come and put out the fire!"
The yelling was extremely harsh in the middle of the night. A dog started barking, and then all the dogs in the village barked. The noise was so loud that the sleeping villagers were awakened. The two families next to the Shen family were the first to notice something was wrong. Thick smoke billowed, and there was a burning smell, any fool would know it was a fire.
The two families were so frightened that they didn't even have time to put on their clothes, so they ran out barefoot. One of them was Huang Shilin's family, that is, the one who was going to host a banquet for their eldest son Huang Baomin in a while, and Huo Jinzhi. The one who took the potato field.
Huang Shilin was only wearing unlined clothes, and his wife Yu Mengdi, who was also wearing unlined garments, ran out in a panic. Seeing the flames reddening the night sky, Huang Shilin's heart skipped a beat, and he hurried back to the yard to fetch water from a bucket Yu Mengdi rushed home like crazy, and came out with a basket of cigarettes after a while.
"Baomin, hurry up and pick up the sewing machines, take out all you can!"
Yu Mengdi yelled frantically, there will be a wedding in a few days, and the cigarettes and candies are all ready to return. She has exhausted her family's savings and borrowed a whole lot of debt, planning to collect people when the banquet is held. Money to pay off debts.
The other people also woke up, and ran out in a panic. Seeing the fire getting bigger and bigger, they didn't need to be called. Those who carried the basin took the basin, and those who carried the bucket carried the bucket to fetch water to put out the fire.
But at this time Mopanshan has not opened tap water, and all the well water is used, and not every household has a well, usually a dozen or so households share a well, or go to the mountain to get mountain spring water. Generally speaking, Mopanshan is not A village rich in water resources.
Furthermore, the northwest wind blowing tonight, the fire that was finally extinguished, became violent again as soon as the wind blew, and it seemed that it could not be controlled. It happened that Huangshi Lin's house happened to be north of Shen's house, and the fire was spreading towards Huangshi Lin's house. up.
What's more unfortunate is that the warehouse where Huang Shilin's family kept things was the one closest to Shen's house. Huang Shilin's family watched the flames engulf the warehouse, but they could do nothing.
"Who can help, there are still a lot of things that have not been brought out, they are all used by the Baomin to get married, and all the money in the family has been spent... I have to take it out..."
Yu Mengdi acted like she was going crazy, she rushed in to rescue things regardless of the fire, but was grabbed by Huang Shilin and his son desperately.
