Ye Cheng also thought that it was interesting, he had lost his hair and laid on the sofa, before he could even reply to the news, he had already called CALL. He lazily picked up the phone, and before he could even open his mouth, An Ningxuan's fiery cry came over.
Half the slum area of the old city had been burned down by a fire, and now most of the people were homeless, placed in the gymnasium of a nearby school.
Ye Cheng held the phone, lit up the cigarette and took a deep breath, then exhaled the smoke. At this time, the news about the fire in the old city started to spread.
Ye Cheng squinted his eyes as he stared at the television screen. In a moment of distraction, his phone dropped to the ground and he disconnected. He picked it up and placed it on the table, then continued to look at the scenes on the television.
It was difficult for news to be broadcast in this era, they had to settle all matters on land, sea and on the air. However, it was fortunate that this time, they had used aerial photography and attracted Ye Cheng's attention in a few scenes.
The result of him speaking the truth was within Ye Cheng's expectations. Since the secret of the slums was discovered, the best way to hide it was to destroy them, but wasn't this method too heartless? To protect a secret, he had to sacrifice innocent people, the Southern Barbaric Nether Domain was too unruly, however, this kind of person was just like a cow playing the zither.
Judging by the direction of the wind and the time taken, the fire would spread to the back of the slum, all the way to the Nine Cauldrons, where it was safe and sound against the west side of the nursing home. The number of casualties continued to rise, and the consequences of this serious accident were hard to predict for the old city district governor.
The new news was rolling about the scene of the fire, along with the wailing of the wounded family members and the interviews of several witnesses. The fire news came to an end here, leaving only the police to investigate, the arrest of the responsible person to report the incident, and the subsequent compensation and other issues that would no longer appear in the news.
Ye Cheng extinguished the cigarette in the bottle, and the faint fragrance of flowers drifted through the air. Ye Cheng glanced at Mei Zi who was walking down the stairs. She had already changed her clothes, picked up her car keys and walked in front of Ye Cheng. Let's go! Wisdom Sauce will not come tonight, it will only be the two of us tonight. "
Was this a hint of something? Ye Cheng beamed. It was a rare occurrence for Meizi to be so proactive, so she had to perform well when she got back.
"Let's go to the old city district!"
Ye Cheng's hot-blooded body was strangled in the cradle just like that. His eyes widened as he curled his lips in displeasure. "Where did we get back from in the morning?
"So, where are we going now!?" That's why we can't just stand by and watch. With so many ghosts dead, if we don't marry them and have a good time, we will all stay in that place and become grievances. That would be terrifying. "
Mei-zi was already so active, how could Ye Cheng dare to say no! After showering and changing clothes, they left the villa. It was already night time at the hotel. Because of his hard work, the two of them drove to the old city center at around 11 PM.
The smell of burnt flesh filled the air, and the black clouds in the sky above could not be dispersed for a long time. A large number of workers were wandering around the scene of the fire, and this fire had probably burned most of their belongings, or even all of them.
Mei Zi held Ye Cheng's hand and looked at them sympathetically as they walked into the slums.
As soon as they got near the scene, they were stopped, Ye Cheng explained the situation, but they were still chased back, the two went around the scene and headed towards the west, where the policeman who stopped them was watching them secretly. The two of them did not dare to get in the car, and left the old city.
After walking around in a circle, he returned back to the slums, walked down from the Rich District, and avoided the police. Ye Cheng pulled Mei Zi to the courtyard in front.
"How is it?"
Mei-zi shook her head. She let out a curse and slowly stepped into the ruins.
Although it was a slum, the structure of the house was still very solid. There was nothing left of the wood, the tiles were just blackened like charcoal.
While Mei Zi was patrolling the ghosts, Ye Cheng took the opportunity to look around.
The news had mentioned that when there was a fire, there were two large explosions. It could be a problem with the Vast Furnace or it could be a fire retardant item. Furthermore, the time and distance between the two explosions were quite far apart, Ye Cheng thought of one possibility.
If the old man's yard was the first point of fire, how long would it take for a normal person to start running when, like a few minutes later, there was another explosion and the person who had let loose had to leave the house and move to another place to set it on fire?
Ye Cheng did an experiment on this. From the old man's courtyard to a normal person running at a fast speed of five minutes, he could run all the way to the position of the second cauldron, but he did not see any signs of resistance, so his guess was wrong.
Ye Cheng then appeared at nine different cauldrons at different speeds. At all times, there was only one cauldron, so it was impossible for him to reach there within five minutes.
From leaving the first starting point to the second starting point, the time difference was only two and a half minutes. It was very difficult for a normal person to reach the second starting point smoothly from the point of impact.
The person who could reach the second spark point in half a minute and ignite the flame retardant must be an expert.
But very quickly, Ye Cheng realized that he might have overturned the old man, the old man wouldn't be as bored as him, it was very possible that the fireproof people were his two subordinates. In different places, a 5 minutes difference in igniting and igniting the fire was the best explanation, it's just that ?
Ye Cheng stood at the second fire point, which was the position of the last cauldron under the nine cauldrons. He still did not find any flame retardant, this was not logical. "Mei-zi!"
His voice resonated in the air, but no one replied to Ye Cheng. He raised his head and saw a faint light coming from the old man's courtyard. The house had been set on fire, so how could there be light?
With his heart tight, Ye Cheng slowly walked towards the old man's courtyard.
A woman's voice came from within the ruins. Ye Cheng carefully listened and confirmed that it was Mei Zi speaking. She was mumbling something, and it sounded extremely awkward, not like she was speaking in a human's language. F * ck, could he be talking to a ghost?
He took a detour to the other side. Ye Cheng peeked inside, only to see Mei Zi squatting in a corner, her body swaying back and forth, her long hair hanging down to the ground. Under the dim light, people who didn't know what was going on would think that he had run into a ghost.
Ye Cheng slowly crept behind Mei Zi. Just as he was about to scare her, Mei Zi suddenly stood up, knocked her head against Ye Cheng's small head, leaving him in a daze. Her tongue was bitten by her own teeth, causing her tears to spill out from the pain.
"Elder Brother Ye? "What are you doing sneaking around behind me?"
Because Ye Cheng's tongue was bitten, he was unable to say a word. He kept waving his hand, but Mei Zi could not understand.
"What are you talking about? Is there any danger? "
Ye Cheng shook his head and took a deep breath with all his might. After swallowing the heart-wrenching pain back into his stomach, he stuttered: "I heard you mumbling, and wanted to see what you were doing!"
Mei burst out laughing. I thought you were planning to ambush me! "
With his thoughts exposed, Ye Cheng laughed awkwardly. "How is that possible? This place is already very cautious, if I had nothing to do, I would still scare you. I was just looking for a beating!"
Meizi didn't point at Ye Cheng, and held his hand as they walked towards a section. There's a body here. "
Without Mei Zi's reminder, Ye Cheng really could not see it. He used his foot to brush away the ruins, revealing a section of the bone in his hand. Ye Cheng was surprised, he turned to Mei Zi.
"Isn't it strange?"
Because she had nowhere to go, and her family did not know that she was dead, so her soul was stuck here. Her life soul was persistent, and after she died, her soul was left here, maybe hoping that someone would find her and bring her back to the earth for peace. If no one from this generation came, her soul would always be here.
Ye Cheng trembled, he felt goosebumps all over his body, the yin qi was floating.
"Don't be afraid, the Elder Brother Ye's yang energy is so strong, they can't harm you, they just like following you!"
"Follow!"
Meizi giggled and took out a square of cream-colored, rough paper from her pocket. Bring this and those things will not dare to approach you. "
Ye Cheng was skeptical. After bringing along that thing that looked like it was tricking a child, his body actually felt a lot lighter. "Good stuff, can you mass-produce it?"
The body had already been burnt to a crisp, with half of it already broken into pieces. It was unknown whether it was crushed into pieces or blown to pieces, but it was clear that it died very miserably.
"There are only three people in the old man's room. This woman is very young, why is she here?"
Ye Cheng replied, he was anxious, could this woman be Falling Snow?
As if she had seen through Ye Cheng's silence, she placed her hand on Ye Cheng's shoulder. Mei Zi shook her head at him, she walked past Chen Luoxue and was completely different from this woman.
Ye Cheng dialed An Ningxuan's number, and found that she was rushing over, so he was in no rush to return to the new city area with Mei Zi. The two of them put away the corpses, then went to a nearby place to eat, walking for a bit, all the restaurants in the old city area were closed, maybe it was because of the explosion, but there was nothing they could do, so they drove towards the new city.
The old city sector and the new city sector were only separated by a mere one to six lanes of road. After Ye Cheng turned around at the intersection, he entered another street, then turned to the east of the old city district and stopped in front of the old restaurant.
The restaurant's business was still quite good. When the baldy saw Ye Cheng bringing the little beauty here, he invited them into the restaurant enthusiastically and asked the waiter to bring them to the same place on the second floor. Not long after the specialties were served, a bustling woman stomped up the stairs and burst into the room with a gust of hot wind.
"Sister An An!"
After An Ningxuan drank a few mouthfuls of tea, he sat down and took a deep breath. "Why are you here?"
"Eat!" Elder Brother Ye said that the food here is delicious, so he came over! "
"You're still in the mood to eat!"
Before Ye Cheng could even finish drinking the wine, he was scolded by An Ningxuan. He innocently turned to Mei Zi. That's right! I said that we should just cover the rice with a bowl of rice, but he chose some special dish. Look at just the three of us, it's so wasteful! "
