In the dark night sky, there was really a drizzle floating, and it was a little different from the early morning. It took only a moment to transform into a downpour.

"Stop! Stop and stop chasing! It's raining heavily!"

“Hmph…”

Being caught off guard by the heavy rain, Xiao Han, who was running wildly in the Miao village just now, hurriedly hugged his head and rushed towards his bamboo building.

Ren Qing, who was behind him, also wiped the rain from his face and followed him with reluctance.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier!

The raindrops as big as soybeans hit the roof of the bamboo building, making a sound like a wooden fish in a temple.

Of course, if it were just a monk who knocked a wooden fish, it might make people calm down.

But tens of thousands of wooden fishes ring together, and the noise will only make people want to cut off their ears and throw them away.

"It's so noisy? How can people sleep! Oh! It's leaking... Hurry, Xiaodong, go get the basin to get the water!"

Xiao Han, staring at the roof that was dripping with water, was worried, and now he didn't know: this sudden heavy rain not only made him in a hurry, but also broke the plans of many people in Guangzhou City!

"Master! Master! Look, it's raining!"

Guangzhou City, Xicheng. The guard known as the Third Brother held an old umbrella and shouted in the old county magistrate's ear with anxiety on his face.

The old county magistrate who fainted seemed to feel something at this time. His heavy eyelids shook and slowly opened a thin slit.

The world in front of me is still a little blurry, but the red light as high as the mountain has completely disappeared at this time.

Perhaps, occasionally, one or two flames will emerge in some places, like a confined fire dragon, unwilling to challenge God.

But in the blink of an eye, the fire dragon was completely suppressed by the endless heavy rain, and only a few "squeaking" movements were left from the night sky, as if it was the last roar of the fire dragon.

"The fire is extinguished?"

His eyes widened little by little, and the old county magistrate, who had finally stopped catching fire, struggled to get up from the ground with the help of his third brother.

At this moment, under the heavy rain like curtains, there were only countless ruins! On the ruins, there were only half of the burnt wooden beams, and there were still a trace of blue smoke in the rain.

"Where are people? How are people?"

Pushing away the third brother who was holding an umbrella for him, the old county magistrate staggered towards the crowd in front.

Those who had originally lived here were soaked in the pouring rain, with their dark faces smoked by the fire, and their eyes were empty and unconscious.

For them, this shabby home is all their wealth in their lifetime, but now it is completely destroyed in an inexplicable fire!

"Twenty or thirty people died!"

A yamen runner saw the old county magistrate walking into the rain and opened his umbrella. He hurriedly chased after him from behind. While trying his best to hold the umbrella over the old county magistrate's head, he curled his lips and replied: "It's all the financial slaves who want to go home to rescue things. They told them not to go in and not to go in, but they just didn't listen! I didn't expect that the fire was so big that the broken house was too unsolid. After entering, the house collapsed and no one came out again."

"Bang......"

As soon as the yamen runner finished speaking, a crisp slap sounded immediately, even in the sound of the "swinging" rain, it still clearly reached everyone's ears!

"Slaves?"

The old county magistrate still kept waving his palms, staring at the yamen runners in front of him whose umbrellas were knocked away. Even their breathing became rapid and heavy: "Are they wrong to keep their money? They just want to save their homes? What's wrong with this! Ah! What's wrong!!!"

"Stop your anger! Stop your anger!"

The third brother, who had just been pushed away, saw that the old county magistrate's chest was fluctuating violently, quickly stepped forward and dragged the at a loss-willed yamen runner aside, turned to bow to the old county magistrate, "He was just angry that those people were not willing to sacrifice their lives and money! He had no other intentions. As far as his subordinates saw, the Lord should investigate the truth about the fire, catch the bad guys, and give these people an explanation!"

The third brother is worthy of being the one who has been with the old county magistrate for a long time. He said one sentence and immediately restored his eyes, which had become red due to anger, to a little clear.

"Yes, this fire must have been done by evil thieves on purpose. You immediately notify all the people not to walk around! Then use the neighbors as a group to identify each other, and find strangers, and immediately send them over!" With a heavy body, the old county magistrate glanced across the darkness and gave orders word by word!

"Here!" After hearing this, the third brother immediately took the civilians and the yamen runners to say solemnly! Then he rushed into the heavy rain without looking back. Soon, a series of shouts and closing sounds were heard around him.

The rain in the sky is still very heavy.

Logically speaking, the first thing to do at this time should be to let everyone find a place to shelter from the rain first!

But the old county magistrate was betting that such a big fire could not have been set by one or a few people! This must have been a fire plan implemented by many people!

He was also betting that some of these people did not withdraw, but mingled in the crowd to watch the fun! Waiting to see his angry reaction.

Therefore, if you let someone go away to shelter from the rain at this time, it will definitely be a huge difficulty to catch these people in the future! It is better to try it out to see if you can find out a few evildoers!

"Sir, go there to shelter from the rain first!"

In the heavy rain, the old county magistrate's thin body kept shaking. Seeing that the parents of a county were still like this, the people who had just lost their love family finally did not cause any more riots. They silently accepted the arrangements of the yamen runners. A few of them were a little soft-hearted and even asked the old county magistrate to go to the unburned house to shelter the rain first, so as not to be drunk.

However, facing the kindly persuasion of the people, the old county magistrate still stood in the rain, and together with the people, letting the heavy rain pour down.

"It is my sin to suffer the people! How can I hide from the rain alone?!"

The old but powerful voice spoke from the old county magistrate, which immediately made people admire the parents of Guangzhou City. At the same time, it also added countless anger to the evil thief who set fire!

"Me? I'm a passerby, I..."

"Friends! This is a fire set by the government. They want to force us poor people away, leaving only the rich families in the south and north cities. Don't listen to him!"

"The rain is too heavy! It will cause death. Why don't you find a place to shelter from the rain?"

Finally, as the surrounding people gradually gathered together in streets and cottages, some disharmonious voices also came from the crowd.

However, no matter how these people aroused, the people were unmoved at all, but instead stared at them with angry eyes.
