After being widowed, I pampered the rough man general by farming

In my memory, the days when the mountain was burned by the fire passed day by day, and the people sent by Pei Ji's men to guard the village would take turns to report back to Xiaohuang Village every day.

Every time Zhu Jiangjiang listened to the report, she was extremely nervous, especially as the days went by, she became more nervous.

Fortunately, the people who reported brought back good news that nothing happened.

"Today is the last day of the half month you said, right? The soldiers will come back later for the last report. It will be fine, don't worry."

Pei Ji and Zhu Jiangjiang sat in front of their house, waiting for the sunset.

At sunset, the soldiers who went to each village to supervise the fire ban will ride back to report.

If today is also good news, it should be that the fire ban has worked.

That fire probably won't burn.

"Hopefully."

Zhu Jiangjiang looked in the direction of the village entrance and murmured.

The people in Jinqiu Pavilion also knew that today was the last day of the fire ban, so they came early, waiting for the report, and wanted to make tea in advance to celebrate.

Seeing that Zhu Jiangjiang still had a dignified face, Xu Gu comforted her jokingly: "Miss Zhu, be happy, and you'll be fine. If the fire still burns, it means that your husband's fire ban is not strong enough. You Hope so?"

In fact, a few days after the promulgation of the fire ban, he no longer believed in the premonition that the fire would burn the mountain.

Not only him, many people in Jiangnan Town probably didn't believe it for a long time.

As time goes on, people's panic becomes weaker, and in the end it directly becomes whatever you want.

As for the fire ban, if General Pei hadn't sent people to guard and supervise every village, everyone would have given up on enforcing the fire ban a long time ago.

Zhu Jiangjiang has also tried to convince himself countless times that the fire ban must be useful, and it will definitely put an end to that disaster.

But for some reason, she always had a feeling of uneasiness in her heart.

"boom--"

From far, far away, there was a small thunder, but the sky in Xiaohuang Village was still bright and sunny.

Everyone looked in the direction of the thunder, but they couldn't see anything except the mountains and the sky.

There is no sign of rain in the sky, but this does not prevent them from taking it for granted that it will rain soon.

"Look, it's about to rain, and there's no way there will be a big fire." Xu Gu said again, "Miss Zhu, let's talk about the meal last time."

The meal she promised half a month ago has not been fulfilled until now.

Not only that, for the past half month, because Zhu Jiangjiang was too worried about burning the mountain, he didn't even turn on the fire at home, and ate directly in the cafeteria of the academy.

As a result, they can only follow them to the cafeteria.

"wrong!"

Zhu Jiangjiang stood up suddenly, looked at the direction of the thunder, and frowned.

That distant thunder accidentally made the memory in her mind clear. She remembered that there was thunder when the fire burned the mountain.

Could it be that the accident in memory was not caused by man-made fire, but by thunder and lightning from the sky!

"Girl Zhu, do you have a premonition again? What's wrong!"

Seeing her shaking hands with fear, Wu Jinping also became nervous for some reason.

Zhu Jiangjiang fully remembered!

"The fire is in the direction of the thunder, which is today, Xiaoji Village!"

Depend on!

Why did she just remember now!

After Zhu Jiangjiang accurately stated the time and place, he turned around and entered the house, taking the things he had prepared to put out the fire.

Pei Ji didn't even ask carefully, but got up and went to the back of the house to lead the horse.

The tense appearance of the couple frightened everyone present.

Xu Gu stared blankly at their backs, unable to believe it, "No way, is there really a big fire?"

"Come on, prepare your horse!" Wu Jinping yelled at Jinqiu Pavilion regardless of the three sevens and twenty ones.

The same is true for Xu You.

"Sanying, call all the guards, prepare all the horses, and go with the king!"

"Uncle Huang, are you going too? Hey...wait for me." Before Xu Gu finished speaking, Xu You turned around and went out. He had no choice but to chase after him.

Here, Zhu Jiangjiang had already taken his things, and Pei Ji's horse was brought out, and the two of them got on the horse and galloped out of the village, not waiting for Wu Jinping, Xu You and the others.

Among them, only Qin Feng did not move.

Because he was entrusted by Zhu Jiangjiang a long time ago, if there is a fire, he will be responsible for arranging all parties to fight the fire.

So he stayed in the courtyard of Pei's house, sitting still, waiting for the soldiers who came back to report, and told them to go to Xiaoji Village after they came back.

"Lady, slow down!"

Zhu Jiangjiang had never ridden so fast before, and Pei Ji almost couldn't catch up with her.

"I'm fine!" Zhu Jiangjiang didn't turn his head.

Xiaoji Village is less than four mountains away from Yulin Temple. The whole village is surrounded by mountains and is located in a mountain pit.

It is precisely because of the surrounding mountains that during the flood last year, the flood did not reach Xiaoji Village, and Xiaoji Village is safe.

Moreover, after the official road was dredged again, Zhu Jiangjiang knew that there was such a village below.

Xiaoji Village is a village forgotten by Jiangnan Town.

This time, they couldn't forget Xiaoji Village again.

"Why are there so many chariots and horses under the mountain of Yulin Temple?"

When passing by the foot of Yulin Temple, Zhu Jiangjiang saw a few thin horses and carts parked beside the road. It must be that someone went up the mountain to burn incense.

The situation in Xiaoji Village was urgent, so she didn't think much about it, so she just crossed over and continued on.

Just after turning the corner at the foot of the Yulin Temple, the two met the soldiers guarding Xiaoji Village head-on.

The soldier was so anxious that he rolled off his horse and knelt in front of Pei Ji and reported loudly: "General, there is a fire on the top of Xiaoji Village, and the fire is spreading!"

"Look, sir!"

Zhu Jiangjiang pointed to the big mountain in Xiaoji Village, his face pale.

There, thick smoke billowed out, covering the entire Xiaoji Village.

"Come on!"

Pei Ji slapped the horse's ass hard, and the two headed straight to Xiaoji Village like a gust of wind.

Pei Ji sent three or four people to guard each village. Apart from those who came back to report every day, there were other soldiers in the village.

The same is true of Xiaoji Village.

In addition to the soldier they met on the road, there were two more soldiers in the village. Seeing the burning mountain, they immediately ordered the whole village to pack up and go out with them.

But the villagers of Xiaoji Village refused.

"My lord, the fire is burning on the top of the mountain. We don't need to leave the village."

"That's right, you see there was thunder just now, and it's going to rain soon, so the fire on the top of the mountain won't be able to burn."

"Besides, you told us to leave the village, where can we go, it's getting dark soon."

No matter how much the villagers talked, the two soldiers guarding the village still insisted on asking them to leave the village, even drawing their swords at each other.

Seeing this, the people in Xiaoji Village had no choice but to cooperate, and turned back to pack their things.

But they were reluctant to leave the village, and they packed their things slowly.

They just want to delay time, delay until the heavy rain falls, and they don't have to leave.
