,.

Several people understood that they wanted to leave when people didn't think they would leave like this.

It's just that a few people didn't understand and had no contact with Shao Pingbo. Why did Master Dao decide that Shao Pingbo was dangerous

Niu Youdao didn't waste any time with them. He walked to a long row of vegetable tables, leaned over and grabbed a guard on the floor. He opened a board cover and could see the river below.

The kitchen is not small, just like a restaurant, half on the shore and half on the water.

The reason why there is such a gap in the kitchen is because it is the place where food waste is dumped. The garbage after cleaning the kitchen is discharged directly into the river through this gap.

In fact, the entire restaurant's domestic waste is discharged directly into the river. Niu Youdao was observing it as soon as he entered the kitchen. He noticed this from the beginning. If he hadn't paid attention, he would not have noticed that it seemed to be integrated with the wooden board. board.

"Come on! Try not to make any noise." Niu Youdao, who opened the lid, urged.

Black Mudan and others jumped in one by one, floated into the water lightly, and disappeared in the water.

After closing the lid, Niu Youdao hurried to the door of the kitchen and listened to the noise outside for a while. The reason why Hei Mudan and others were allowed to leave first was to test the situation. If Hei Mudan and others were discovered, He could still find an excuse to explain while he was still in the kitchen.

After confirming that there was no movement, he quickly went to the corner and lifted the lid of a wooden barrel.

The barrel was filled with kerosene for lighting the kitchen fire. I picked up the barrel, found a ladle to scoop out water, scooped up the kerosene and poured it directly onto the kitchen wall panel.

A piece of hemp rope in the kitchen was soaked in kerosene, flicked and thrown away, and one end was pulled to the entrance where the kitchen waste was dumped. He blew on the fire stick and lit the other end. He lifted the floor cover where the kitchen waste was dumped and jumped down by himself. It quietly disappeared into the river below.

And the hemp rope soaked in kerosene had already been dyed with an open flame, and it went all the way to the corner of the wall. When it burned to the corner, the fire spread to the wooden wall panels that had been splashed with kerosene, and spread to the surrounding walls.

After all, Tang Yi had that status with him, so Shao Pingbo still wanted him to cook for the two of them? He's not that generous yet!

Of course, he is not that stingy. If he doesn't cook food, he can cook a restaurant for you. It depends on whether you can enjoy it.

At first, people outside smelled the smell of burning smoke and thought it was fireworks in the kitchen. But later they realized something was wrong. There was a lot of smoke coming out, and the smoke even penetrated into the restaurant.

Someone immediately ran to the kitchen to see what was going on, and saw flames jumping out.

Kicking open the kitchen door, something terrible suddenly happened. The kitchen was ventilated, and fire burst out. The monk was so startled that he ran back.

Soon, people outside the restaurant also discovered the fire.

"Fire! Fire!"

Someone shouted loudly, and the restaurant owner even shouted hysterically. The entire restaurant was basically a wooden structure. It was built on the riverside and the exterior was painted with a layer of tung oil to prevent moisture. It would be over as soon as the fire burned!

Shao Pingbo, who was discussing matters with several generals on the observation deck, also noticed that thick smoke was rising from one end of the restaurant, and flames were burning outside.

Smoke drifted in, causing people here to cough again and again.

A monk flashed over and said, "Master, this restaurant is not safe, please move away!"

Shao Pingbo shouted: "What's going on?"

"The kitchen is on fire," said the monk.

"That's the kitchen?" Shao Pingbo was stunned for a moment.

The river was originally a place where the wind could escape. As soon as the tongues of flames emerged and took advantage of the wind, it became extremely powerful, and thick smoke poured in here.

The monk said: "Master, the fire is difficult to control. It is dangerous here. Please move."

Shao Pingbo clenched his fists and coughed, waved his sleeves to sweep away the smoke, and strode back into the restaurant.

The thick smoke inside the restaurant made it difficult to open his eyes, so the monk grabbed his arm and quickly guided him out.

The coughing people were able to escape the thick smoke when they reached the upwind point. When they turned back, in just a moment, the thick smoke had enveloped the entire restaurant, and the fire even covered half of the restaurant.

Shao Pingbo, who recovered from his cough, took a few breaths, looked around, and asked, "Where are Zhang San and the others in the kitchen?"

A monk said: "Master, they are monks after all. This fire cannot burn them, and the source of the fire comes from the kitchen. Logically speaking, they should be able to put out the fire in time and not let the fire expand. In my opinion, this fire can't burn them." The bad thing is that they put it there.”

Shao Pingbo stared at the burning kitchen. At that moment, his eyes were bright and scary, showing coldness. He glanced at Tang Yi and the others casually, then narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the burning restaurant, and said softly. , but in a tone that left no room for doubt, "I guess he ran away from the river, search!"

There were people and horses guarding the shore, so it was impossible to run away. Someone would see him if he ran out.

Tang Yi and others were shocked when they heard that Niu Youdao might have started the fire. After hearing Shao Pingbo's order, Tang Yi suddenly understood, and then realized what Niu Youdao meant by referring to the mountains and forests on the other side. The guy had prepared it before I set fire to the restaurant, and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to escape, so I asked here to help cover it up.

"Yes!" Everyone accepted the order.

Tang Yi waved and led Tang Susu and Su Po to fly in one direction. They flew across the river and took charge of the search in one direction.

They occupied this direction, so it was impossible for everyone to squeeze in this direction. The other searchers naturally went in other directions.

Seeing Tang Yi personally taking action, Shao Pingbo glanced coldly, wrapped his arms around the cloak behind him, put his hands behind his back, stared at Tang Yi's direction, his eyes flickered, and suddenly turned his head to signal to the two people around him, "You guys The two of them will follow her in person. Once they see Zhang San and the others, there is no need to ask any more questions. Kill them all without leaving any trace!"

A monk said: "My eldest son, that is a member of the Zhuge family. Isn't it right to kill him directly?"

Shao Pingbo looked at the burning restaurant coldly. According to the agreement, after Zhang San and the others finished cooking, he would let Zhang San and the others leave. However, he had already discovered the abnormality of Tang Yi and the others, so how could he let them go so easily? Li, naturally wanted to find out what was going on with Zhang San and Tang Yi.

Who would have thought that the other party could actually set fire to the restaurant and escape, and they agreed to let them go after cooking, so why take the risk and escape? There is only one reason, I am worried that I can't leave, so I have to run away!

He didn't show any emotion at all, and he didn't do anything, but someone saw through his mind!

He knew what kind of power Tang Yi and the others were after repeated contact with them. It was probably not Tang Yi and the others who saw through his mind, but Zhang San and the others. As for which of these people it was, he was not yet completely sure.

However, this person who saw through his mind made him very uncomfortable, and even made him feel an inexplicable danger. It was rare to feel this way. He affirmed again in a deep voice: "If anything happens, I will be responsible, kill!"

"Yes!" The two golden elixir monks flew away in the air, riding on the waves and chasing Tang Yi.

It was almost evening, and the sunset was burning like a fire, but the riverside restaurant was really in flames.

On the river bank not far from the fire, Shao Pingbo stood with his hands behind his hands under the sunset, with a thoughtful look on his eyes.

"Eldest Young Master, this is my restaurant! Eldest Young Master, that is all my property! My whole family depends on him for their livelihood!"

The owner of the restaurant ran over, knelt down and wailed. His property was good, but it was not all of it. He cried more miserably, hoping that the eldest son would give him some compensation.

Shao Pingbo, whose thoughts were disturbed, glanced at the kneeling boss. He grabbed the sword from the waist of the general beside him and pulled it out with a swish!

puff! The restaurant owner's eyes widened with disbelief. He covered his chest with both hands, grasping the sword that had pierced his heart, and looked at Shao Pingbo, who was looking down indifferently, with trembling lips.

The sword was bloody. Shao Pingbo withdrew the sword and threw it to the side. He flicked his cloak and turned around.

The general on the side took the sword, put it back into its scabbard, turned around and quickly followed.

"There is no need to allocate military supplies from Labor City. I went to the capital and worked hard to get a batch of military supplies. They will be sent to Beizhou in a while. After the things arrive, you can distribute them on the spot, so you don't have to go back and forth. , otherwise the losses of going back and forth are not small, and it is good to save a little bit. There was a large-scale drought in Beizhou the year before last, and there were floods this year. The people are already in dire straits, and it will not be easy for the governor to help the whole state."

"Of course, we are sandwiched between Zhao Hanyan and the three strong ones. Arms are the first priority. If the governor has treated anyone badly, he will not treat his brothers badly. We cannot let them starve. We will reissue them as soon as the things arrive. You must take good care of them." Persuade and comfort the brothers below, and let the following brothers persevere and overcome it with patience."

"Also, I must warn the following. Beizhou is our foundation. The foundation must not be messed up. No matter how difficult it is, we are not allowed to rob the people. Bandits are not allowed to take advantage of the disaster. Banditry is not allowed to arise in Beizhou. If banditry is found, it must be eliminated as quickly as possible. No disturbance to the people is allowed. If a situation arises, otherwise the people will be frightened and run away. What will happen to the replanting of the fields after the disaster? Should I plant the land, or will you do it? If they all become victims of the disaster and flee, what will happen to the source of troops?"

"Without people, it will be even more difficult in the coming year, which is not good for any of us, so this is a big deal. No one is allowed to interfere with post-disaster farming. Relief food must be available in time, and grain seeds must be distributed in time. You must dispatch The people supervise the local government and do not allow anyone to embezzle. If they are found, they can be killed first and reported later. Your relatives must also be restrained. If anyone dares to take advantage of the opportunity to enrich the country, I don't care what his connections are. If he is found, he will be punished! I might as well tell you clearly. Recently I am going to chop off a bunch of heads for people to see, so don’t hit me on the edge of the knife, otherwise it will be useless for anyone to plead for mercy.”

"After we get through this situation, we will be better off! Beizhou is our common Beizhou. You must understand that this is also for your own good. Take care of the people below!"

Shao Pingbo said as he walked.

"Yes! What the eldest son said makes sense!" The accompanying general responded.

By the river, Niu Youdao jumped out of the water and landed. Black Mudan and others in the forest immediately stretched out their heads and shouted: "Master Dao, here!"

Niu Youdao looked back and saw the plume of smoke rising across the river. He suddenly slapped his head and just left secretly. Why did he bother to burn the restaurant? He found that he was still emotionally affected by the doggy couple and could not Be calm and rational.

He quickly dodged into the forest and waved, "Quick, go!".
