Alchemist Sword Sect

Here Lu Chen and Yun Mengting tidied up a little, and then hurriedly drove Yun Mengting to the entrance of the Taoist temple again.

As soon as he got out of the car, Lu Chen saw bursts of thick black smoke coming out of the Taoist temple. Is there a fire in the Taoist temple?

Lu Chen did not dare to hesitate, and rushed into the Taoist temple like flying. Looking at the Taoist temple, there was no sign of fire at all, but he found that the fire was not in the Taoist temple at all, but came from the back mountain. Passed over.

"No, the back mountain is on fire." Lu Chen thought to himself, and rushed towards the back mountain. When he broke out of the thick fog, he could already see the thatched cottage in the distance that had been shrouded in fire. Unexpectedly, the thatched cottage was on fire at this time.

"The bodies of Master Ji and Master Ji are still inside!" Lu Chen muttered quietly, but there was an ominous premonition in his heart. Involuntarily, he stepped forward and rushed to the edge of the thatched cottage as fast as he could. Here he saw the already gray-faced Master Ji lying outside the thatched cottage, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. And now Master Fierce's body is probably still in this thatched cottage.

This thatched cottage was originally built with straw and some wood as supports. After the fire started here, the fire was completely uncontrollable. Lu Chen looked at the thatched cottage that had turned into a torch. Lu Chen did not rush into the thatched cottage to rescue Master Xi's body. Instead, he leaned down to check the extent of Master Ji's injury.

Fortunately, Master Ji was not seriously injured, but his face was blackened by the black smoke coming out of the thatched cottage, and he fainted because there was not enough oxygen.

Yun Mengting also quickly felt Lu Chen's side, and helped Lu Chen start to take care of Master Ji who had fainted. Here Lu Chen saw that Yun Mengting had already started to take care of Master Ji, so he stood up and prepared to rush into the grass. The body of Master Xi was also taken out from the hut.

But just when Lu Chen stood up, he remembered the clicking sound. Several wooden pillars of the thatched cottage were burned to the point where they could no longer support the weight of the thatched cottage and began to pour to one side.

Lu Chen didn't think much, turned around, picked up Master Ji, pulled Yun Mengting and ran away from the thatched cottage. When the three people had just walked out a few steps, there was a crash. The entire thatched cottage collapsed. A huge wave of air rushed towards the three of them.

Lu Chen and Yun Mengting were both hit by this huge wave at the same time. Feeling the burning feeling behind their backs, the two people were instantly pushed to the ground by the wave of air.

"Master Fierce!" Yun Mengting lay on the ground, turned around, looked at the thatched cottage that had been razed to the ground, thinking that Master Fierce's body was still in the thatched cottage, he couldn't help but scream out in pain.

"Calm down, this is the situation now, let's send Master Ji to the hospital first. You don't think that something will happen to Master Ji." Lu Chen quickly pulled Yunmeng Ting, obviously at this time When considering Master Ji's body, the most important thing is to send Master Ji to the hospital first.

Yun Mengting could only look at the disappeared thatched cottage with tears in her eyes, turned away and took Master Ji to the nearest hospital with Lu Chen. Yunmengting's sports car here can only seat two people. In the end, Chen Lu chose to stay, contacted the fire department, and asked Yun Mengting to take Master Ji to the hospital alone.

The fire truck arrived soon, but the fire in the thatched cottage was almost burned out. When the firefighters extinguished the fire, only some stumps of wood remained. Apparently it also turned into a black coal-like appearance.

Finally, with the help of firefighters, Lu Chen found Master Ji's body among the ruins of the thatched cottage. At this time, the body of Master Fierce became completely invisible. It was obvious that the fire had completely destroyed the original appearance of Master Fierce's body, leaving only a shriveled corpse.

Under the advice of the firefighters, Lu Chen rushed to the crematorium to deliver Master Ji's body. Obviously, Master Ji's body could no longer be preserved in this condition, so it was better to be cremated as soon as possible.

After Master Ji's body was disposed of, Chase Lu got the firefighters' report on the cause of the fire. Someone actually set the fire on fire. Traces of gasoline were found on the ruins of the thatched cottage. No wonder the fire was so big. It turned out that the thatched cottage was doused with gasoline.

Lu Chen frowned, but he was wondering who wanted to target this fierce master like this. Is it just to destroy the corpse and eliminate traces? It seems that this person is very likely to be the murderer of Master Ji. But there was only one thing Lu Chen couldn't figure out why Master Ji was outside the thatched cottage.

Since this arsonist is the murderer of Master Ji, he should not be lenient to Master Ji. But why not kill Master Ji with a fire?

Master Ji's ashes are placed here. Lu Chen rushed to the hospital to see how Master Ji was doing. At this time, it is estimated that only Master Ji himself can solve this mystery. Although Master Ji is blind, a fire cannot stop him at all. In addition, with the inner breath in his body, it is impossible for him to faint outside the thatched cottage just because of these puffs of smoke. It must be It was the external force that caused Master Ji to fall outside the thatched cottage. If you think about it this way, Master Ji is very likely to have fought with the murderer.

As Lu Chen walked, he thought that he had walked into Master Ji's ward. Master Ji did not wake up at this time. Wearing an oxygen mask and relying on an external ventilator to continue breathing. Apparently he inhaled a lot of dust when he fainted.

"How's it going? Master Ji, is there nothing wrong?" Looking at Yun Mengting, who was sitting next to Master Ji with a sad look on his face, Lu Chen quickly asked.

"Master Ji is fine. It's just that he has some difficulty breathing now, but he will get better after a while." Yun Mengting calmed his nerves a little. Obviously, it was a blessing that Master Ji was fine. , "By the way, what happened to Master Ji's body."

"Master Xi's body has been sent to the crematorium for cremation. Because of the fire, Master Xi's body can no longer be preserved for a long time and can only be cremated as soon as possible. I'm sorry that I couldn't let you see him for the last time. "Lu Chen was not willing to let Yun Mengting see Master Xi's body after the fire. Obviously, the final appearance of Master Xi's body was too horrible to look at. If Yun Mengting saw it, I don't know what he would do.

"What on earth is going on? How could the thatched hut catch fire? I know that there is no source of fire at all in the thatched hut. After all, Master Ji's food was sent to him by Master Ji. There is no fire in the thatched hut. The stove. Besides, Master Ji doesn't smoke at all, he doesn't carry fire on his body, and he won't catch fire for no reason. Besides, there is a stream next to the thatched cottage here. Even if Master Ji has bad eyes, his nose But it is very sensitive, and it is impossible that it will not react in any way to the burning house." Yun Mengting's analysis was clear and logical, and it was obvious that she had already considered this strange matter on the way to see Master Ji off.

"It seems that I can't hide it from you anymore. The news from the fire brigade is that someone deliberately set the fire." Lu Chen sighed helplessly. He knew that Yun Mengting would definitely get to the bottom of this matter. After all, Master Ji is now injured like this, and Master Ji's body was directly destroyed by the arsonist. Yun Mengting naturally gritted his teeth at the arsonist. But the opponent was able to successfully attack Master Ji and knock him out. It is very possible that he is the murderer who killed Master Ji. Even Master Fierce is no match for him, so Yun Mengting is even less likely to be his match. If you send him there, you will only get beaten.

So Lu Chen didn't plan to tell Yun Mengting the truth, but now Yun Mengting seemed to have analyzed the matter thoroughly, and it was impossible to deceive her.

"Who on earth would not let Master Ji go?" Yun Mengting said through gritted teeth.

"I'm afraid that the other party is not going for Master Ji, but most likely for the body of Master Ji. Otherwise, Master Ji would not have appeared outside the thatched cottage." Lu Chen couldn't understand why Master Ji had already appeared here. Even though he was dead, there were still people looking at his body. How much hatred does this person have against Master Ji? Obviously, we can only get an answer by waiting for Master Ji here to wake up.

While the two of them were waiting for Master Ji to wake up, Yun Mengting's cell phone rang.

"Dad, I'm in the hospital now. Master Ji is injured and is in the hospital. What can I do for you?" It turned out to be the call from Yun's father.

"What? Impossible!" Yun Mengting's face suddenly became extremely ugly at this time, and he did not forget to raise his head and glance at Lu Chen beside him. Lu Chen didn't know what happened, but looking at Yun Mengting's expression, it seemed that the matter had become serious.

"Well, since you have something to do, I will take care of Master Ji here, and you can go home quickly." Lu Chen looked at Yun Mengting, and it would be more convenient for her to go back and finish the matter first.

"I'm afraid you have to go home with me."

"Oh? What happened?" Lu Chen looked at Yun Mengting in surprise, but he didn't expect that this matter would involve him again.

"The marriage force is here again. You'd better go home with me." Yun Mengting frowned and sighed.

"What? Forced marriage?" Lu Chen was shocked. Someone actually came to force her to marry him. Looking at Yun Mengting's appearance, it was probably Yun Mengting who was forced into marriage.
