The ancestor is here, she is here with space
Chapter 106 Go and save people
"How long have your family members been arrested?" Lin Congyun decided to ask clearly first. After all, if they were really forced, there would always be clues.
"I don't know." Song Hongyi's voice trembled. "Not long ago, I went to the county governor's mansion. Lord Zhong took out my son's jade pendant. I learned that all my family members were captured by Lord Zhong."
Lin Congyun frowned, feeling a little uneasy. What exactly did this Lord Zhong want to do? He arrested Song Hongyi's family and forced Song Hongyi to harm her. There must be some conspiracy.
"Then do you know why he wants to kill everyone in our general's mansion?" Lin Congyun asked directly.
Song Hongyi shook his head. "I really don't know. He just said that unless I help him, I will never see my family again..."
Lin Congyun stared carefully at Song Hongyi when he spoke. As an agent, she had a keen insight into people's facial expressions when they lied.
Judging from Song Hongyi's expression, he didn't seem to be lying. That kind of regret and fear could not be faked.
However, the more this happened, the more confused Lin Congyun became.
Why did Lord Zhong do this?
What is his purpose?
Taking a deep breath, she knew that she might not be able to get any more useful information from Song Hongyi.
At this moment, the kerosene spilled by Song Hongyi suddenly caught fire for some reason.
Lin Congyun was startled and turned around to look around.
The originally quiet post station was now surrounded by raging flames.
"What's going on? Why did the fire suddenly start?" Lin Congyun asked sternly, but Song Hongyi just shook his head, trembling and unable to speak.
The fire spread rapidly, with thick smoke and oppressive heat.
Lin Congyun widened his eyes, looked at the sea of fire around him, took a deep breath of the hot air, and tried to calm himself down.
As a secret agent, she had experienced countless life-and-death moments, but at this moment, she felt unprecedented pressure. This was not only because of her own life and death, but also because she was responsible for the safety of everyone in the general's mansion.
Lin Congyun quickly looked around, looking for a way to get into the post station.
She caught a glimpse of a low wall not far away where the fire had not yet spread, and immediately rushed in that direction.
Someone in the inn had already woken up. Seeing Lin Congyun's figure, he hurried over.
"Grandfather, are you okay?"
Lin Congyun saw that the person coming was Wu Jinjie, and said anxiously: "Quick, go and save him!"
At this time, the guards of the general's mansion were already putting out the fire.
But there was no well in the post station, and the fire was too big to be put out with buckets.
It seems that we can only use the spiritual spring water in the space.
"Butler, half of the time you save people, and half of the time you follow me to get water." Lin Congyun ordered calmly.
Then, she carried an empty bucket to a corner of the post station and quickly filled the bucket with spiritual spring water.
"Bring all the empty buckets here." Lin Congyun shouted to the guards who were running towards her.
There was no way she could worry about whether her secret would be discovered by others now. She should put out the fire first.
However, Lin Congyun was still careful and filled the bucket with spiritual spring water without anyone knowing.
In addition, everyone was thinking about how to put out the fire at the moment, and no one cared where Lin Congyun found the water source.
"Hurry, pour all this water onto where the fire is hottest!" Lin Congyun shouted loudly to the guards.
Buckets of water were lifted one by one, and the spiritual spring water was poured onto the area where the fire was most fierce.
What was amazing was that as soon as the spiritual spring water came into contact with the flame, the flame was immediately extinguished.
When everyone saw this, they were overjoyed.
With the help of the spiritual spring water, the fire was gradually brought under control.
At this moment, a guard ran over and said breathlessly: "Ancestor, we found the arsonist!"
"Where is it?" Lin Congyun asked immediately.
"In an abandoned woodshed behind the post station, we caught a sneaky man with an unburned tinder on him," the guard replied.
A hint of coldness flashed in Lin Congyun's eyes, and she quickly walked to the back of the post station.
In the abandoned woodshed, a tied-up man was shivering with his head down.
"Raise your head!" Lin Congyun looked at him coldly.
The man raised his head, revealing a terrified face.
Lin Congyun took a look and found that it was an acquaintance, Wan Niang who had pretended to be crazy a few days ago.
"Wan Niang, it's you?" Lin Congyun's voice was as cold as ice.
Wan Niang said in a trembling voice: "Madam, I...I..."
"Why are you awake?" Lin Congyun interrupted her.
"Ah?" Wan Niang didn't expect to be asked such a question and didn't react for a moment.
"Tell me, who instructed you?" Lin Congyun asked again.
Wan Niang lowered her head, tears streaming down her cheeks. She choked and said, "I... I was forced. Someone threatened me..."
"Who?" Lin Congyun was too lazy to listen to so much nonsense.
"Yes……"
Wan Niang took a deep breath, as if she had made a great decision, and said in a trembling voice: "Yes...it's Captain Song..."
Song Hongyi!
Lin Congyun suddenly thought of something and immediately turned to the guard and said, "Go and see if Captain Song is still at the post station."
After discovering that the post station was on fire, I ignored Song Hongyi.
Several guards rushed out immediately and searched everywhere in the post station for Song Hongyi.
However, they searched the entire post station and found no trace of Song Hongyi.
The guards came back and reported that Song Hongyi had disappeared.
Lin Congyun's face suddenly turned gloomy. This guy dared to run away.
Wu Jinjie hurried over.
Lin Congyun immediately asked, "What's the situation? Are there any casualties?"
Wu Jinjie shook his head: "Fortunately, we responded in time and no casualties were caused. It's just... a few brothers suffered minor injuries."
That's good, Lin Congyun nodded, "Where are the other officials?"
Wu Jinjie's face was a little solemn. He looked around to make sure that no one else was nearby, then he whispered to Lin Congyun, "I didn't see anyone on the officer's side."
Lin Congyun frowned, and said in a voice that sounded a bit unbelievable, "No one?"
Wu Jinjie nodded: "Yes, the officials seemed to have disappeared overnight."
Lin Congyun sneered. They didn't disappear at all. It was obvious that these officials knew in advance that the post station was going to be set on fire, so they fled early.
"These people..." Lin Congyun's eyes flashed with a cold light, "Where are the other prisoners?"
"Not inside the post station either." Wu Jinjie replied.
After hearing this, Lin Congyun actually laughed, which made Wu Jinjie a little confused.
