Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

Chapter 186 I want to meet Chen Da

"Okay, they responded. Let's ask them to move forward a little. These won't hurt them." Craftsman Chen was very happy to hear the response from the people inside. He was afraid that he couldn't hear their position clearly and that someone would be injured by the explosion.

Before they came, the county magistrate warned them that if anything happened to the important people inside, they would be held responsible, and they dared not allow any casualties.

"Okay, Uncle Chen, after the sparks here are extinguished, we can start the second round." Tian Yuheng arranged everyone. He was afraid that his sister would get hurt, so he didn't let Tian Xing'er participate. He followed the craftsmen into the outskirts of the inn.

Soon all the sparks in the area were extinguished. They laid two thick layers of sand where the gunpowder was placed to ensure that there would be no accidents.

With the experience just now, this time it will be much easier and everything is ready.

Everyone stepped back.

Craftsman Chen was about to light the fire again. This time everyone had great hope. After working all night, they finally saw results and would be able to rescue the people soon. Everyone was feeling nervous.

"Bang." There was a muffled sound. This time the amount was less, but the wall was still blown open. This time, Craftsman Chen directly placed the explosives in a row and blew them up according to the width of the outer periphery.

The moment the wall collapsed, everyone finally saw the people inside, but the first thing that caught their eyes were the large vats. Not only did Craftsman Chen not hurt anyone, even the large vats were intact.

"Go quickly and bring the person out." The county magistrate saw a large crowd of people and couldn't tell who was the general, so he decided to bring them all out first. This way he could make a good impression on the general. Unfortunately, Li Da was still unconscious and hadn't woken up yet, so he didn't see the county magistrate's performance of diligence and love for the people.

All the people were finally pulled out, and no one was dead. All the people in the inn were here.

Even the county magistrate himself was a little surprised. "Let's see if anyone is injured. The doctor is right next to us. Let the doctor take a look at the injured."

The county magistrate was well prepared, having arranged for the best doctor in the county to be on duty here long ago, for he was afraid that if the person was rescued but died without timely medical treatment, his work would be in vain.

With explosives to clear the way, the fire is now well under control. Half of the county's population worked to put out the fire overnight, and it was not until the sun came out the next day that the fire was completely extinguished.

The main reason is that it is early autumn now and the weather is dry. If possible flames are not extinguished in time, they may cause secondary fires.

The county magistrate was very satisfied with his performance this time, but he felt that he had been busy all night but did not see who the general was. He felt that he had worked in vain.

After thinking about it, he called the shopkeeper over and planned to ask around to see if there was anyone with a burly appearance who looked like he came from a military background.

"Oh, there really is one. There was an injured person in the group of people led by the tall man named Tian Zhenwei who led us to dig the firebreak tonight. I saw him yesterday. He was very burly and didn't look like an ordinary citizen. But I don't know if it was because Tian Zhenwei and his friends were also very burly."

The shopkeeper felt that this group of people were no simple people. Given the situation last night, if they hadn't carried the injured person on their backs, they would have been able to get out a long time ago. They should have been able to get out by trying hard.

So when the county magistrate asked if there were anyone who looked like they were from the military, he thought Tian Zhenwei and his gang were the most likely. Otherwise, how could ordinary people have such physiques? They were all very poor.

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, the county magistrate thought of the general that Tian Yuheng had talked about with him last night. After rescuing the people, Tian Yuheng and his men seemed to be in cahoots with Tian Zhenwei and his men. Could it be that they were lying to him?

But then I thought that the fire was caused by kerosene, in such a large amount, how could an ordinary person cause such danger.

That is, the injured one among them might be the general.

The innkeeper just said that they couldn't leave in order to save the injured person, so they all stayed. Otherwise, everyone in the inn might not survive.

After thinking about it, the county magistrate felt that he had solved the case.

Thinking of this, the county magistrate was ready to go over and visit immediately. It was rare that his hard work last night would be wasted. "Come on, make arrangements quickly. I'm going to Yuelai Inn in a while."

Tian Zhenwei has brought everyone to move to Tian Xing'er's inn. As soon as they rescued the people last night, they asked the doctor to check on Chen Da. Sure enough, his injuries have worsened. No one knows when he will wake up. The thick smoke last night was toxic. The others' throats haven't healed yet and they've been coughing. What's more, Chen Da is a wounded man.

When the county magistrate came to the inn, Tian Xing'er and the others were also surprised. They didn't understand why the county magistrate came. But Tian Yuheng had already noticed the county magistrate's thoughts. He knew that it must be what he said last night that made the county magistrate guess that the general he was talking about was Chen Da.

But Tian Yuheng was also a little troubled. It was just a stopgap measure at the time, and he had to think of a way to get around it. However, there was no doubt that Chen Da was a soldier, no matter if he was a general or not. The county magistrate did not recognize him, and he never said it was Chen Da.

Tian Yuheng suddenly felt that he had become a little smooth-talking, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

"I wonder what the matter is today, Mr. County Magistrate?" Tian Yuheng pretended not to understand from the beginning, insisting that he didn't know and didn't ask.

The county magistrate saw that Tian Yuheng was really ungrateful. He was so brave yesterday, but Tian Yuheng wanted to stop him and take credit for it. He was really ungrateful.

"I am here, and I don't need a little commoner like you to tell me what to do! How is the injured person last night? Is he awake?"

As expected, the county magistrate came to find Chen Da. Even if Chen Da was awake, he could not be allowed to wake up now, lest they reveal their tracks.

But now, Chen Da hasn't woken up yet, which is not a problem. Tian Yuheng said naturally, "Sir, our friend hasn't woken up yet. He was already injured, and yesterday's thick smoke made him breathe in a lot, which aggravated his injuries. The doctor said that he is still in danger, and we don't know when he will wake up."

When Tian Xing'er heard this, she wondered why her second brother was lying. She didn't understand why they seemed to be having a good chat yesterday, and Chen Da was not an important person, and the county magistrate probably didn't know him, so why didn't they tell the truth.

"Oh, then may I go up and take a look?" The county magistrate was a little skeptical of Tian Yuheng. He thought that if the situation was so serious, why didn't they have any uneasy expressions on their faces? The only reason they got up was probably because they were tired from putting out the fire last night.

"Since you want to see him, of course there is no problem. I will take you there, but no one else can go in with you. The doctor said that if too many people go in, they will bring in the disease. So it's better to go two at a time."

Seeing that Tian Yuheng did not stop him and was still so careful, the county magistrate felt that the other party might not be lying to him.
