Xiao Si and Zhui Feng looked out the window. Although it was dark night, both of them could see at night. But after looking for a long time, except for the flowers planted in the yard, they couldn't see anything, not even a human figure. .
"This old fox clearly said that he would send someone to serve us, but he can't even see a ghost, hum!" Xiaosi said bitterly.
"What is this smell? I seem to have smelled it somewhere." Zhui Feng sniffed hard again, then suddenly jumped out of the window and started looking carefully.
After a while, he came back and shook his head.
"I didn't find anything. It's just that the smell is weird. Miss Shen, do you think it could be poisonous gas?"
Shen Ning shook her head: "It's not poison gas, it's oil gas."
"Oil and gas? What oil and gas?" Xiao Si and Zhui Feng asked in unison.
"It's just the smell of petroleum. Well, I haven't smelled this smell for a long time." Shen Ning took a deep breath with a strange expression on her face.
What is oil
Xiao Si and Zhui Feng looked at each other.
"Petroleum is a black liquid buried underground, also known as black oil. It is very easy to ignite, and the fire is out of control once it breaks out." Shen Ning explained.
"Then why does it smell like oil here? Is oil produced here?" Xiaosi asked.
Shen Ning smiled slightly: "Of course not, the oil is buried underground and must be mined before it can be used. The oil here was naturally poured by someone. When the oil is poured on the ground, it will be quickly absorbed by the soil. Plus it The color was extremely dark and it was night, so Zhui Feng didn’t find anything. It’s just that although the oil was invisible, it had a very special smell, which made us realize it.”
"Why are they pouring oil here?" Zhui Feng frowned in confusion.
Xiao Si gasped and his face changed color: "That old fox wants to burn us to death!"
He was flexible and thought of the reason in a flash.
Shen Ning nodded to him approvingly: "Yes, he wanted to burn us to death. I thought he would place some sulfur and other fire starters in this room, but I didn't expect that he would get oil, which is more flammable than sulfur." If there is too much, if a fire is set, none of us will be able to escape, and we will all be burnt to charcoal."
"This old fox has a vicious heart!" Xiaosi shouted, "We just taught his grandson a little lesson and took him 10 million taels of silver, but he actually wants to burn us all to death!"
Zhui Feng said nonchalantly: "That's enough reason."
Xiaosi glared at him: "Zhui Feng, where are you from?"
Zhui Feng said expressionlessly: "I'm just telling the facts."
"I see that you are clearly one of the old fox's gang. How could he be willing to burn such a good bastard like you to death together..."
Xiao Si angrily yelled at Zhui Feng. Seeing that the two of them were blushing and having thick necks and were about to quarrel again, Shen Ning rubbed her forehead and felt like her head was getting bigger.
"Can you two stop arguing? Do you really want to wait for the old fox to set fire to us and burn us all to death?"
Xiao Si and Zhui Feng immediately stopped bickering.
"Miss Shen, it's the slave's fault. The slave is in charge!" Xiaosi raised his palm and slapped himself lightly.
Shen Ning rolled her eyes at him.
"By the way, Miss Shen, I don't understand. You just said that this old fox guessed that you were the Queen, but he knew you were the Queen and still set fire to it. This... isn't this because he has taken the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage? This is Treason is a major crime that should be punished by the nine clans! This old fox must be too courageous." Xiaosi still couldn't believe it.
