Chapter 117 Fire
There were flames all over the mountains and thick smoke filled the sky.
The mountain ahead is the only way to go.
Judging from the fire, it would be a dead end whether you go around the foot of the mountain or climb over the mountain.
The people of Qingcheng naturally saw it. Although there had been droughts in previous years, there had never been a fire.
Isn't this a dead end? Are all of them going to be burned to death here?
"Quick! Notify every household in the city, all able-bodied men to fetch water and prepare to put out the fire!"
When Prefect Peng saw this, he was shocked and the city was in chaos.
When Yun Qianyi and Jun Yanci returned to Qingcheng, they immediately ordered Meng Chen and Xuan Liu to bring people to join the fire-fighting team.
The wildfire has already spread into a line, and what they are doing is probably just a drop in the bucket.
Even in modern times, wildfires are extremely horrific disasters, but in the end of the world, there is artificial rainfall and high-tech helicopters that can accurately extinguish fires.
But in this fictional ancient time, unless there is a heavy rainstorm or a large number of rivers to stop the spread of the wildfire, Qingcheng can be protected.
Otherwise, the people in this city can only wait for death.
Qingcheng has always been dry, and sometimes there is no rain for a whole year. Instead of praying to God for a miracle, it is better to rely on yourself to find a solution.
Yun Qianyi suddenly thought of it.
"Is the upstream of this place Huicheng?"
She remembered that Huicheng had constant rain all year round, so there was a dam that stored water. If the flood could be released, it would definitely be able to stop the wildfire.
"Yes, but Dr. Yun, we can't go out to ask for help! The road is blocked by the wildfire."
Although Prefect Peng knew Yun Qianyi's idea, this plan would not work.
At this moment, Xuan Liu flew back. He clasped his fists and bowed to Jun Yanci and Yun Qianyi, saying:
"Your Highness, Miss Yun, the fire ahead is spreading too fast and cannot be extinguished. We can only control it and delay the time it takes to burn to Qingcheng."
After Xuan Liu saw the fire in the forest from mid-air using his Qinggong skills, he immediately came back to report. He knew the situation was urgent.
"Is there no other way out? What about the back?"
Yun Qianyi's face remained expressionless, but she spoke quickly, revealing her anxiety.
Meng Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked over with a heavy face, and hesitated for a moment when he thought of the terrain of this area.
"Miss Yun, there is, but that is a vertical cliff, it is impossible for a human to climb up."
cliff?
Yun Qianyi and Jun Yanci looked at each other, and immediately asked Meng Chen to lead the way. In a race against time, Xuan Liu held Meng Chen's arm and jumped up.
After seeing the cliff that towered into the clouds, Yun Qianyi frowned. With this height and angle, if she had some climbing equipment, perhaps she could give it a try.
Not to mention her, even a martial arts master like Yun Jingyi would find it difficult to do so.
"Qianqian, wait for me."
Jun Yanci pondered for a while. If he didn't have the poison in his body, this cliff would be nothing more than a waste of his internal energy.
In order to control the number of times the poison attacks him, Yun Qianyi would not let him use his internal energy if possible.
But now, for themselves and for the people of this city.
Yun Qianyi had no choice but to compromise.
"Ayan, when you feel the poison in your body is unstable, remember to take this bottle of medicine immediately, understand?"
Yun Qianyi was always worried when she was not by his side.
Given the height of the cliff, Jun Yanci must go up in one go. If he stops halfway, he will be in danger of falling.
Therefore, this internal energy requires a large amount of consumption.
Yun Qianyi knew that since Jun Yanci said it himself, he must have the confidence to take the leap.
She naturally believed in Jun Yanci, but what she was worried about was whether the poison in Jun Yanci's body would be triggered by his internal force after he went up.
"Okay." After taking the medicine bottle from Yun Qianyi, Jun Yanci turned and left.
There is no time to lose. The later he leaves, the more danger Qianqian will be in.
"Ayan."
Yun Qianyi grabbed his hand, not knowing what was going on. Seeing his back turning and leaving, Yun Qianyi felt a panic in her heart.
She suddenly realized that she was more dependent on Jun Yanci than she had imagined.
In the past, she always felt that Jun Yanci was too clingy, as if he couldn't live without her.
But isn't she the same?
"Qianqian, don't be afraid. I will be in Huicheng in half a day at most."
Jun Yanci hugged her back, his forehead against hers, his tone extremely gentle.
Yun Qianyi nodded, but never loosened her grip on his sleeve.
"Be good, Qianqian, don't think too much, wait for me to come back and pick you up, okay?"
Jun Yanci coaxed her with his mouth, and while talking, he gently rubbed Yun Qianyi's nose several times.
He didn't want to leave her either. If there was a second choice, Jun Yanci would not leave on his own.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."
Yun Qianyi let go, kissed him lightly on the lips, and then stepped back.
"Xuan Liu, Meng Chen, no matter what happens, Qian Qian must not be in any danger."
Jun Yanci looked at the two people beside him, his tone full of seriousness.
Xuan Liu and Meng Chen immediately knelt on one knee and solemnly promised:
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will protect Miss Yun with my life."
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will protect Miss Yun with my life."
Xuan Liu grew up with Jun Yanci, and Meng Chen came from the Jiang family army. With the two of them around, Jun Yanci can indeed feel more at ease.
Yun Qianyi was worried about him leaving alone, so how could he not be worried about Yun Qianyi as well?
Jun Yanci nodded, pulled Yun Qianyi over again, pressed his lips hard against hers, and hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.
This kiss did not last long. In the blink of an eye, Jun Yanci let go of Yun Qianyi.
He suddenly turned around, tapped his toes, jumped up easily, and disappeared from their sight in an instant.
Yun Qianyi kept her head up, and the familiar figure remained in her sight, but in just a few breaths, it completely disappeared.
Only after Xuan Liu and Meng Chen called her once did Yun Qianyi slowly walk back into the city, looking back every few steps in the direction of the cliff.
It has been about half an hour, I think Jun Yanci should have safely reached the top of the cliff.
Yun Qianyi’s guess was correct. In fact, Jun Yanci had already jumped over the cliff in a quarter of an hour.
It's just that he was in a hurry to get on with his journey, so he kept practicing Qinggong, and naturally his internal energy was also being consumed a lot.
As expected, Jun Yanci's poison took effect.
Just as he took out the bottle of medicine, severe pain suddenly swept through his whole body.
He didn't even have the strength to open the bottle. Jun Yanci's hands became unstable and the medicine bottle fell to the ground.
Gradually it rolled to a man's feet.
When the man saw Jun Yanci's face, he was surprised why the prince of Eastern Jin Dynasty appeared here. Then, when he saw the familiar bottle on the ground, he bent down and picked up the bottle.
He stood there thinking for a moment, then opened the medicine bottle and handed it to Jun Yanci.
"thousand."
But who would have known that Jun Yanci fainted as soon as he said the first word.
