The place where Su Taoyao enshrines Ling Yun's spiritual tablet is at the corner of the courtyard, farthest from the entrance of the courtyard.
Not only does a fire spread quickly in an all-wooden building, but the smoke is also extremely thick. Plus, it's night, so visibility is even lower.
When Su Taoyao, who was chanting sutras with her eyes closed, realized something was wrong and opened her eyes, the yard where she was was already filled with thick smoke.
She stood up in panic and struggled to find her way through the thick smoke. It took her a long time to find the door of the room. By this time, not only the smoke, but also the open flames had reached her room.
She wanted to open the door and go out, but found that the door was locked from the outside.
She pushed the door desperately and called for help in a panic: "Is there anyone?! Help! Help!!"
Xiao Yan shouted from the distance outside: "Oh my God, there's a fire and a flood! My lady is still in the house, please save our lady! Miss, miss!!"
Xiaoyan's room was close to the courtyard door, and she could still run out to call for help, which meant that the fire started from her side.
Su Taoyao slapped the locked door hard and coughed from the smoke because she shouted for help.
She felt that this was not possible, so she touched the window next to the door and tried to climb out.
But unexpectedly, the window was also locked from the outside. It was obvious that the person who set the fire tonight wanted to kill her.
The slag removal system was very anxious: "Damn it, this Ling Fei is a pervert. He sneaked over at night and actually set fire to it, and even locked all your doors and windows from the outside!
How are you? Can you still hold on? If not, I will open the window for you!"
The slag removal system has no other capabilities, but it still has the ability to open a window to protect the personal safety of temporary employees.
Su Taoyao didn't try to be brave and said immediately: "Okay, no problem. When I smash the window with a stool later, just break the window open for me and see how I torture Ling Fei to death when I get out."
Just a little wolf cub!"
She spoke very quickly, but she was not angry. On the contrary, she was very excited.
When doing tasks, you will always encounter various surprises, this is normal.
But Ling Fei successfully attracted her attention, and she decided that the world must give Ling Fei the most perfect "crematorium for chasing wives."
With the cooperation of the slag removal system, Su Taoyao smashed the wooden window open twice with a stool, then extinguished the flames on the window frame and climbed out through the window with difficulty.
But because the window was too high, it was inconvenient for her to wear a skirt. After climbing over the window, she fell to the ground.
In the thick smoke, she saw a tall man in black attire standing less than two meters away from her.
He has a tall and tall figure, with the thinness unique to a young man. His upturned red phoenix eyes are reflected in the surrounding firelight, and his black hair is flying in the air in an unruly manner.
He is as good-looking as a monster walking out of the dark night, no, to be precise, more like a life-seeking evil ghost running out of hell.
The young man hiding in the dark night is none other than Ling Fei.
Su Taoyao sprained her ankle while climbing out of the window, choked on the thick smoke, lay on the ground and coughed, and struggled twice without standing up.
Ling Fei was standing in the distance, standing sullenly, glaring coldly at Su Taoyao. The jumping fire in his eyes was like the flame of hatred in his heart.
Su Taoyao choked out physiological tears due to the thick smoke. She looked up at Ling Fei and said in a hoarse voice, "Did you set the fire?"
Ling Fei admitted simply: "Yes, it's me. Why, you didn't expect that I could survive well, right?"
After saying that, he continued to stare at Su Taoyao with hatred and disdain, as if waiting to see how Su Taoyao would die in the fire, or waiting for something else.
Oh, maybe, he was waiting for her to humblely beg him to save her.
Unexpectedly, after he answered, Su Taoyao stopped talking.
Without even looking at Ling Fei, she endured the pain in her ankle, stood up from the ground, and limped out of the yard that was covered by thick smoke, groping forward step by step.
After walking a few steps, he tripped over the steps in the yard and fell to the ground again.
This time, he was less than half a meter away from Ling Fei and almost fell at Ling Fei's feet.
She subconsciously reached out to help Ling Fei's calf, but before she could touch it, Ling Fei kicked her away out of reflex and rolled onto the burning lawn next to her.
"hiss--"
Su Taoyao let out a low cry of panic, and flames jumped up to the hem of her skirt, burning quickly.
Ling Fei frowned and stepped on Su Taoyao's burning skirt a few times. These steps were not light, and he could even feel her slender ankles under the skirt.
The flames were immediately stamped out, and Su Taoyao groaned in pain and curled up holding her ankles.
At this time, Xiao Yan rushed in from outside the courtyard with the little nuns who were putting out the fire. The voice came from far away and Xiao Yan shouted: "Miss, where are you? Hold on tight, we are coming!"
"I'm here!" Su Taoyao curled up and responded loudly to Xiao Yan.
The master of Puhui Temple who came with him to put out the fire had been practicing martial arts since he was a child. When he heard the sound, he immediately picked up Qinggong and flew towards this direction.
When Ling Fei heard the commotion, he glanced coldly at Su Taoyao on the ground, and said bitterly: "This is the price you paid for finding the second aunt that night to humiliate our Ling family. This time you are lucky, we will leave next time
Let’s see!”
After saying that, he flew up and disappeared into the yard filled with thick smoke.
The master of Puhui Temple also followed the sound and found Su Taoyao who fell on the ground holding her ankles and could not get up, and rescued her from the sea of fire.
That night she was arranged to another hospital, and the doctor who was invited told her that she had a fractured ankle and would have to stay in bed for a while.
Oh, both ankles were broken, not because she climbed out of the window and fell, but because Ling Fei kicked her.
The news that a leak occurred in the Royal Jizhao Temple and that the daughter of Prime Minister Su Zuo was almost burned to death soon spread throughout the capital. In this dynasty with few entertainment projects, it became a hot topic after dinner.
Huo Guang finished discussing the business with Ling Fei that day and endured it, but finally couldn't hold it in anymore and said: "Young Master Ling, do you know the news about Miss Su's encounter with a thief in Jizhao Nunnery?
I heard that she was almost burned to death, and when she was rescued, both her ankles were broken.
Everyone was wondering if someone was trying to harm her and asked her what happened in the fire, but she refused to tell."
Ling Fei showed no expression when listening to the first half of the sentence. When he heard that Su Taoyao's ankles were broken, he frowned slightly: "Is it that serious?"
Huo Guang nodded, and then sighed heavily: "Hey, Miss Su is also pitiful. This matter is probably related to Su Zuocheng. She has become a waste, and there is no room for her. Tiger poison can't eat its seeds. This Su thief is really
It’s not a thing!”
Ling Fei's eyes darkened and he sneered coldly: "Oh, Su Taoyao's acting is really good. Even you think she is a good person and you pity her."
Huo Guang opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
