On their wedding night, she burned down the Prince Regent's palace.

Chapter 118 A Big Fire

Although he could see the confusion in Ye Zhiyu's eyes, the stakes could not be explained clearly in a moment, so Fu Jingtong skipped this place and led the horse to change direction.

"Master Fu, what are you doing!" Ye Zhiyu was still on the horse. Seeing this, he quickly bent down to protect the horse's neck, fearing that Fu Jingtong would drive him off.

Fu Jingtong smiled helplessly, "If it's really a bandit, what's the difference between you and I going there and dying? I've spread the news before I came, and the informants nearby should be able to arrive in a while."

How long will it take?When Ye Zhiyu thought about what might happen to Xiao Fengtuan at the hands of bandits, his heart suddenly felt like a knife, and he didn't want to wait any longer.

"Master Fu, just stay here to take care of me. I'll go over and find out what's going on first!" Ye Zhiyu said, taking out his whip and leaving Fu Jing alone to go ahead.

"What are you in a hurry for?" Fu Jingtong was quite strong and forcefully held down Ye Zhiyu's hand that was about to whip the whip.

Sighing helplessly, Fu Jingtong said: "If you ride over, I'm afraid there will be too much noise and alert the other party in advance. Just come down and I'll accompany you."

Ye Zhiyu's eyes lit up and he was about to say thank you, but Fu Jingtong raised his hand to stop him.

"Don't try to fool me this time by saying something nice. You must know that you owe me a huge favor!"

The small compass in Ye Zhiyu's waist pocket came in handy at this time. In Xiao Fengtuan's eyes, the scene of passing by trees was different from that in Ye Zhiyu's eyes.

Following the guidance of the compass pointer, the two of them arrived at the foot of the bandit's village without much trouble.

When Ye Zhiyu saw the stacked houses, he felt even more excited. His footsteps showed no trace of fatigue after running in the woods for a long time.

Fu Jingtong couldn't help but watch her act foolishly, so he pulled her back.

"How are you going to subdue those bandits if you just charge up straight up like that?" Fu Jingtong pinned her down in the weeds and went out to investigate the situation while squatting.

Just seeing the messy ruts on the road, Fu Jingtong couldn't help but change his expression.

"The situation is not good." Fu Jingtong didn't mean to scare Ye Zhiyu by bluffing, and told him exactly what he saw and what he speculated.

"Look at the number of ruts. This group of bandits is probably very numerous. And from the rut marks, I can smell some saltpeter."

Saltpeter?Isn’t that the raw material used to make explosives?Ye Zhiyu was shocked and saw that Fu Jingtong also had a serious look on his face.

"I'm afraid that some of the bandits may have privately made firearms. This would be too dangerous. Even if a few informants come, we can't withstand a round of gunfire from the other side."

Ye Zhiyu naturally knew how powerful thermal weapons were, but seeing that they had been traced to this point, how could she give up so easily.

Gritting her teeth, she took out the medicine bag from her pocket and stuffed it into Fu Jingtong's hand, "Master Fu, this is the magic powder. Even if it is sprinkled in the air, it is not as powerful as taking it directly. It can also delay the other person for a while. Take this, You might as well wait here to pick me up!"

Fu Jingtong had no idea but was stuffed with life-saving tools by Ye Zhiyu. He couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, "What about you? The Iron Lady broke into the bandit's den alone?"

Ye Zhiyu had no intention of joking with him. He glanced sideways and said, "I can't beat you, why don't you know how to administer medicine? When the wind blows, I will run to the windward direction and sprinkle all the torturous powder on me." I don’t believe there are still people who can survive my medicine!”

Seeing that she was not too confused, Fu Jingtong nodded, "Then let's go together. You will be responsible for administering the medicine, and I will be responsible for the ventilation."

The two of them bent over and hid themselves among the weeds, and gradually forced themselves into the bandit's lair.

But before the two of them could find a suitable location, there was a thunderclap in the bandit's den, followed by thick smoke and a fire.The bandits' stronghold was surrounded by wooden thorn walls for defense. The defenses that usually helped them resist foreign enemies became the best nourishment for the fire. As soon as they saw it burning, they surrounded the entire stronghold.

Ye Zhiyu's eyes were about to burst, so he couldn't care less about hiding his figure. He stood up and ran towards the cottage that was burning with raging fire.

Fu Jingtong had no choice but to run after her.

It was just that the fire was too strong, and before the two of them reached the entrance of the village, they were forced to go in by the heat wave.

Seeing the houses in the village crackling with fire, Ye Zhiyu almost collapsed to the ground, but he could only hold on by clenching his teeth.

Just as Fu Jingtong was about to dissuade him, he heard Ye Zhiyu mutter, "Put yourself up to Zhu Jing, the nectar of compassion, practice it in Yunjin, and ward off the unknown!"

Ye Zhiyu's face turned paler every time he read a sentence. Fu Jingtong looked at the gloomy sky and was shocked.

Although he knew that Ye Zhiyu was somewhat capable of psychic calculations, was this method of manipulating the celestial phenomena something she could easily do?

No, Fu Jingtong concentrated on the changes in the sky, and saw that the dark clouds had not yet condensed into shape, and Ye Zhiyu was already shaky, his body was trembling, and he could no longer hold up.

Just as he was hesitating whether to let her wear him down like this, he heard a noise coming from behind him.

"What kind of evil have you done? You go out and come home and you're gone?"

"Bah, bah, bah, don't talk nonsense. This is obviously God's open eye! If we hadn't sent Feng Tuan back, they would all be burned to ashes inside now!"

Fu Jingtong heard the sound for a while, looked towards the visitor, and saw a group of strong men and women in coarse cloth, pointing at the burning cottage and talking about it.

The leading couple should be the chiefs of the village. He spotted the two of them with sharp eyes, looked at each other and stepped forward.

The little phoenix in their arms jumped down first and ran straight towards Ye Zhiyu, who was still bowing his head and concentrating on reciting the incantation.

"Mother!"

Ye Zhiyu thought he was hallucinating due to lack of energy. He looked up blankly, only to see Xiao Fengtuan standing right in front of him.

I couldn't help but cry and laugh for a while, and took Xiaofengtuan into my arms, "Mom, I'm sorry, I'm late. Are you afraid of Xiaofengtuan?"

Xiao Fengtuan chuckled instead, wiping away the tears on Ye Zhiyu's cheeks with her small hands, "Mother, I'm doing a good job, don't be miserable."

Ye Zhiyu saw that although Xiaofeng Tuan's temples were a bit messy, but his whole body was really unscathed, his heart suddenly fell to the ground.

Fu Jingtong had been paying attention to the group of people whose origins were unknown. When he saw them watching the scene where Ye Zhiyu and his daughter were reunited, they were moved and embarrassed, and a slightly absurd idea came to his mind.

But at the moment, he only had two adults on his side, and he had to protect Xiaofeng Tuan Zhouquan. Even if Fu Jingtong had guesses about their identities, it was inconvenient to tell them.

So he raised his hands and saluted the couple, and Fu Jingtong said thank you, "Thank you two for protecting my little girl Zhou Quan. I wonder what I call my two benefactors?"

Old Wu and his wife looked at each other awkwardly. Their parents came to the door and regarded them as their benefactors. How embarrassing was this!
