Volume 6 Chapter 15

At this time, the heavy rain stopped soon, there was still water between the roof tiles, and some dry Artemisia was wet.

However, the burning bamboo basket did not know what was in it, forming a burning fire stream, which attracted the beams under the tiles at a terrible speed.

The roof of the cell soon turned into a big burning lantern, and the bright light covered the rising sun.

A sound of exclamation began in the quiet streets.

Now Lu Mingyi is in charge of the prison.

Although the appointment of the temporary history code has not yet been formalized, Qian Gangsheng, the former history code, has been swept out by Lin Xi.

At the time of smelling the smoke and fire, Lu Mingyi had rushed out of the guard room. As soon as he saw the flames on the cell, the rough and powerful man turned white and knew that the cell could not be protected.

Now most of the captors and jailers are guarding the river dam. There are only three people in the prison.

Generally speaking, these three people are enough, because prisoners are locked in the iron prison, and some of the felons are also shackled. If there are important criminals who are escorted for a long time, they are all brought to trial by the superior and escorted by the town guards. In fact, the prisoners usually only watch and settle down the food and living of these prisoners, plus this kind of town level prison There are not many prisoners in custody, that is to say, only about 20 people involved in the silver hook workshop case were detained at one time. Otherwise, the total number of prisoners in custody in ordinary times is less than 20.

At the moment, the fire on the roof of that cell is extremely fierce. Let alone the three of them. Even if there are 30 people here, it will be very difficult to keep that cell.

The second one is Xiao Chuan.

This is an old guard in his fifties. He is specially responsible for the food of prisoners. When the second one rushes out and sees the fire in that cell, the old guard is stunned indirectly.

"Tao! Take out all the keys! "

at this time, Lu Mingyi, with a pale face, uttered a loud cry.

As he shouted, a younger guard ran out.

The young guard was still sleepy. When he saw the light of the fire in the cell, he was so scared that he fell asleep. A large circle of keys in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.

"I'll let the prisoners out first. Don't run around. Watch the prisoners to avoid running away!"

As soon as Lu Mingyi bent over and picked up the key that had fallen on the ground, he pulled out his legs and ran into the cell.

He didn't see any big scenes. I'm afraid that he would be at a loss for a moment when he suddenly encountered such accidents. But at the moment, there is only one idea in his mind, that is, Lord Xiao Lin gave him the cell here, and he would be responsible for it. And he was also very clear in his mind that even if these prisoners committed the death penalty, they must have the final decision document of the criminal division before they can be beheaded on schedule. Only one of them needs to be burned, and Lord Xiao Lin will bear this responsibility.

"Fire!"

"Put out the fire!"

At this time, a fire-fighting shout also sounded.

Many women and children carrying buckets and basins poured in from the quiet streets.

The thought of the people in the small town is also very simple and honest. When they saw the fire, the first thing they thought about was fire fighting. They didn't think about whose jurisdiction it was. But when they were near, many people thought it was the jurisdiction of "Lord Xiao Lin", the voice of fire fighting was louder.

"It's the cell of Lord Xiao Lin!"

"Help Lord Xiao Lin to put out the fire!"

After such a sound, some of the trembling old people appeared in the streets and alleys leading to this place with water vessels.

There is no shortage of water for fire rescue in the prison.

In the open space of several cells, there are six fire-fighting copper tanks. Because of the heavy rain, the water in these big copper tanks is too full to be filled again.

The number of people who arrived at the prison at the first time was also quite large, and several long dragons formed immediately. They kept pouring water on the burning cell. However, most of the young men and soldiers in the town had already rushed to jiangba. Most of these women and children were unable to pour water on the roof of the burning cell. Only for a moment, not only did the fire on the roof of the cell not stop, but also the flames Instead, it was extended to two adjacent cells.

The fat businessman with a smile on his face has come to the height of the town at the moment, watching the fireworks over the prison become more thick from afar. His habitual hands have been wiped on his sleeve. He muttered with satisfaction, "this fire is so beautiful."

Lu Mingyi and five prisoners ran out of the burning cell on the half roof.

He coughed violently because of the smoke. One of his arms was probably hit by the burning fallen wood, which made a blister. But he didn't stop at all, and ran into another burning cell.

From the sound outside and the smoke from the roof, the prisoners in this cell already knew what had happened.

When Lu Mingyi ran into the cell along the not spacious passage, all the prisoners in the cell were beating the iron cell desperately and shouting in panic.

However, in a wet cell inside, a large, chained prisoner with a beard and beard didn't cry out. He looked at the roof with more and more lights, watched the thin flames begin to fall, and was choked by the smoke and coughing quietly, but he was closely watching Lu Mingyi who had just run in. His eyes were tightly nailed to the one in Lu Mingyi's hands Ring key and waist knife.

Because of the big fire in the next cell, the temperature of the cell here becomes very high, so the fire extends faster. Lu Mingyi's eyes are swollen and painful by the smoke, all of which are tears, so he can't see the fierce light in the prisoner's eyes at all.

Just as he opened the door of the prison, the prisoner inside kicked him on the chest.

Lu Mingyi falls back heavily to the ground. The prisoner has shackles on his feet and can't stride out. However, the whole man pours forward and pounces on Lu Mingyi. The shackles on his hands are smashed on Lu Mingyi's head.

Seeing that Lu Mingyi didn't have time to dodge, in the thick smoke, one foot stretched out and kicked the prisoner's waist.

This foot looks very ordinary, but it contains great power. The prisoner's half body is indirectly perceived, and he is kicked to turn over in the air and fall heavily on the ground.

A yellow faced man covering his mouth and nose with a wet handkerchief helped Lu Mingyi up.

The sick man who didn't know when to run into the burning cell was Zhang Erye. Now his face was more sallow and his body looked worse than before.

In the smoke behind him, suddenly another thin woman ran out.

This woman was brought by Lin Xi in the fish market last time. She was just released in this prison.

She was still wrapped with gauze on the back of her hand, but she didn't even take the key of lumingyi's hand, just took a piece of wire, ran to the front indirectly and opened the gate of the most iron prison.

On the dam of Donggang Town.

In a burst of cheers, Jiang Xiaoyi exhausted his last strength and hit the last set stake wood that Chen Yangzhi, a 90 year old man, said must be mended.

After hitting the last hammer, his shaking hands could not hold the heavy hammer. He sat down in the mud without the style of a man of practice. The big hammer in his hand was also indirectly thrown in front of him.

A large piece of muddy water was splashed out by the sledgehammer he left, just a little splashed into his open gasping mouth.

"Bah! Bah! Bah! "

Jiang xiaoyideng could not help spitting, which caused a burst of laughter around him.

Jiang Xiaoyi also embarrassed to laugh.

He looked up, but he saw that the woman with the scar on her face was also looking at him, smiling and wiping the mud on her face.

But between his eyes, the woman's eyes were dim again, turning silently towards the place where porridge was cooked under the dam.

Jiang Xiaoyi's smile froze. He stood up involuntarily. He didn't want to ask the woman why she was so unhappy. But just then, he saw a rider running quickly from Donggang Town.

This is a herald Sergeant sent by the town governor's office. After a few questions on the dam, the herald Sergeant quickly stepped in front of him and quickly described it.

Now, although Jiang Wenhe and others still don't understand his identity, they all know that he is a practitioner and a friend of Lin Xi.

"Prison fire?"

Hearing the words uttered by the herald, Jiang Xiaoyi's face suddenly changed.

Yan came to the town governor's office, He Jing, dressed in the town governor's uniform, stood in the courtyard in front of the government yamen, quietly looking up at the sky.

The sky was clear, and the warm sunshine was shining on him, but the smile on his face was even colder.

The sound of footsteps sounded, and the commercial voice of the military academy in bright copper plate armour stepped in quickly.

"My Lord." After bowing to he, the military academy did not hide the joy on the surface, saying: "jiangba is still intact. Several villagers in the back of jiangba village have been transferred to gao'gang by Lin Xi. Just received a message. A fire broke out in Donggang Town

"Prison fire in Donggang Town?" He Jingmeng took a step forward, and his voice rose unconsciously, "what's the specific situation?"

"I heard that there were no casualties or prisoners taking the opportunity to get out of prison, but they burned three cells," said Shang Yin. Moreover, in order to consolidate the dam, he transferred many people who had mentioned the house of catcher and the house of jailer to the dam. "

"It's a self inflicted sin. You can't live."

He Jingzong chuckled. "Even if he only burned three cells, he was already to blame."

"Shangyin, you've been working hard all night, and you've been able to give your people a rest. Help me to inform Mr. Kuang and follow me to the dam. "

Lin Xi stands on the dam of Yanlai town.

"These dams in Xijiang are different from those in other places. Most of the dams in other places are used for water storage and irrigation, but these dams in Xijiang are used for reclaiming land and building boats. "

The 90 year old man lying on the bamboo chair beside him was covered with a thin blanket, looking at the river wandering beside the dam, and commented to Lin Xi with a hoarse voice: "the place where the four dams are originally" big gourd belly ", that is, the very broad shoal of the river, has accumulated a lot of silt. At that time, the big ships were easily damaged by touching the bottom here. Now some big ships on the river couldn't even walk at that time. In those days, it was really amazing for the Su people to manage River and water conservancy
