The kitchen was not big, but the things were so messy that it caused great trouble for the two people searched.

This was the first time Xu Junlou sincerely thanked the gangsters for their ungrateful and sloppy work. Otherwise, the big water tank they were hiding in would have been searched long ago.

But even so, the footsteps of searching people outside were getting closer and closer.

After all, an oversized water tank is placed in the corner of the kitchen, which is too conspicuous.

In the water tank, Xu Junlou, Fu Minqing and other three people held their breath and stopped breathing. They widened their eyes and listened to the sounds getting closer and closer outside.

They knew very well that once the three scholars who were powerless were caught by this group of mobs, there would be absolutely no room for resistance, and there would be only the result of a sudden death on the spot.

In this extremely suppressed tranquility, the three of them could clearly feel a sound of footsteps stopping in front of the water tank.

In the water tank, the dim space was cramped and dull. The three people who felt a little hypoxia did not care about their physical discomfort. At this time, they only beg those who were standing outside the water tank not to open the lid. Once it was opened, they had no way to escape.

The person in front of the water tank hasn't left yet, and this extremely depressing sense of fear makes people almost breathless.

Just when Xu Junlou and others were almost unable to bear the depressed fear, a voice suddenly came.

"The master of the hall asked us to go out and gather. It's time to prevent fire. Otherwise, if the officers and soldiers come over for a long time, we will all have trouble."

Master!?

In the dark and cramped water tank, the three people looked at each other without saying a word.

But their hearts were beating wildly.

Sure enough, these mobs are not ordinary people at all. Only the sects in the martial arts world have titles and positions such as hall masters.

Before they could think too much, they heard the sound outside the water tank saying, "I understand, I'll leave right away."

Immediately afterwards, the sound of footsteps gradually faded away.

Inside the water tank, Xu Junlou waited for a while to make sure there was no one outside before he dared to get out.

The three of them poked their heads out of the water tank at the same time, occupying one direction, each greedily breathing fresh air.

If the people outside didn't leave just now, even if they didn't find them, they would be able to suffocate themselves to death in the water tank.

"These people are sects in the martial arts world!"

Zou Chenglong came over and said to Xu Junlou in one breath.

Xu Junlou gritted his teeth, climbed out of the huge water tank with difficulty, and said, "I know... No wonder so many people from the world have appeared in the capital recently. It's so damn!!!"

"Stop talking about this."

Fu Minqing said seriously: "Did you just hear that? They are going to set fire to the yamen... What does it smell like??"

After Fu Minqing finished speaking, he suddenly felt a very special pungent smell.

Zou Chenglong was shocked and said, "It's kerosene!"

Xu Junlou's heart was beating wildly and said, "They were pouring kerosene and then fired, and the entire yamen would become a sea of ​​fire. What are they doing? This is the capital city, under the feet of the emperor, they really dare to rebel!?"

"Now I don't have time to think about this, run away!" Zou Chenglong said anxiously.

"How to run?"

Fu Minqing gritted his teeth and said, "There are all their people outside now. Wouldn't they fall into the trap when they go out?"
