125. Chapter 125 Love of life and death
I waved my arms, trying to push away the crowd, but more and more people gathered in front of me, forming a human wall, and I jumped up and down in frustration.
"The Qingchi is still inside. I can't wait any longer. You two, get yourselves wet and follow me." Ying Zheng's anxious voice rang out from the crowd.
Regardless of my appearance, I squatted down and passed through the gaps between the legs of the human wall like a puppy. From time to time, I was stepped on, which made me grit my teeth in pain.
"A Zheng! A Zheng! I'm here!" I finally got in and shouted loudly, but I looked left and right but could not see Ying Zheng.
Could it be that Ying Zheng couldn't wait and rushed into the sea of fire?!
Looking at the fire all over the sky, my ears were filled with the loud and noisy shouts. I couldn't help but tremble in my heart and my calves felt weak.
"Miss Qingchi, Your Majesty has rushed into the sea of fire to look for you." Zhao Gao pulled me, who was trembling, and said.
"No! Fire and water are ruthless, how could he be like this!" I couldn't go on, I couldn't let him be so reckless of safety, life and death.
Not far away, he saw a guard holding a quilt and beating the flames. The cotton wool had caught fire. He was also covered in dust and was bent over and coughing.
I grabbed the quilt, then grabbed the water that had just passed by the guard beside me, poured it on the quilt, poured some more on myself, wrapped the wet quilt around my head, and prepared to rush into the sea of fire.
Zhao Gao pulled me and said anxiously: "Girl, you must not do it. If you don't see the girl when you come out, why don't you have to go in again?"
Hearing these words, I hesitated for a moment, but my anxiety forced me to wait no longer. I pushed Zhao Gao away with all my strength, and ran straight into the sea of fire regardless of my own safety.
The flames were licking the beams, and the house was filled with thick smoke. It looked like it was crumbling. I looked around for Ying Zheng.
I saw a guard who was choked by the thick smoke and several places on his body were on fire. He couldn't bear it and passed me by and ran towards the door. I quickly pulled the guard and asked urgently: "Your Majesty.
Woolen cloth?"
The guard covered his nose with one hand, pointed into the room with one finger, then turned around and left with a distorted face.
I covered my mouth and nose with a wet quilt and kept walking inside. Burning logs kept falling from my side.
I hid here and there to avoid the fire, and saw several guards running out because the fire was choking them.
Feeling like an ant on a hot pot, I kicked open the door to the inner room. The door had been burned to pieces by the fire and fell down with just a slight kick.
I saw Ying Zheng dragging the wedding dress I had sewn in his hand and searching around the room like a headless fly. He had no protective measures on his body, and there were already flames.
I hugged him from behind, put the wet quilt on him, and wrapped us together.
When Ying Zheng saw that I was intact, he smiled happily and hugged me tightly. I also cried with joy.
Just as we were hugging each other and rejoicing, the wooden bed frame next to us fell apart due to burning, and the burning wooden frame poured down on us. Fortunately, we were covered with wet cotton quilts and survived.
Ying Zheng pulled me and ran outside, protecting me with his arms all the way. The fire was getting bigger and bigger, the smoke was burning, and my throat was swollen and painful.
Several more guards rushed in wrapped in wet quilts. This time they came prepared. When they saw Ying Zheng and I, they immediately wrapped us in wet quilts.
I felt relieved and thought everything was saved, but my head suddenly became blurry and I fell down.
