Professional Ethics of a Concubine

At the Bai family's main residence, with a loud rumbling sound, a big hole was blown out on the wall of the Bai family's house close to the main street.

At the same time, a big fire broke out in one or two side courtyards, and among the flames there was the green fire that Ye Qingzhi specifically emphasized.

The Bai family's house is built mainly of stone, unlike the Da Zhao family's house, which is mainly made of wood.

Therefore, once a fire occurs, it is not so easy to cause a large-scale fire because there are not so many combustible materials.

The moment the landmine exploded, there was a loud rumbling sound, which startled Bai Chi and many other sleeping members of the Bai family so much that they rolled off their beds.

They screamed in agony, and their first reaction was to shout angrily:

"Damn it, what happened! Someone come! Where is the person? Where is the person?!"

However, the servants did not appear in front of their master immediately. Instead, Bai Chi soon heard screams of fear outside.

"Oh my God! God's punishment has really come! God's punishment has really come! And there are green will-o'-the-wisp fires, help, help..."

Bai Chi's face changed, he hurriedly put on his trousers and coat, and ran out in a disheveled state. Then he saw the big fire not far away, and the green flames.

Bai Chi's face changed, his heart tightened, and his legs became a little weak.

However, he is not a Zoroastrian. It would be better for him to believe that there are really ghosts in this world than to make him believe that this is a punishment from God.

He even believed that it was the Empress and the Fifth Prince who were causing trouble!

However, at this moment, Bai Zi and several other brothers ran over, each with an expression of disbelief and panic on their faces.

“Father! Father! Did you hear that loud noise just now? I have never heard such a loud noise. Could it be… could it be a punishment from God?!”

"Also, look at those green flames. They are not red, but green. What else could they be but will-o'-the-wisp?"

"Wow... How scary! Is the God of Fire really punishing our Bai family..."

Bai Chi listened to his sons chattering non-stop, and the more they talked, the more outrageous it became. They all believed in divine punishment, and he could not help but shout angrily,

"Bullshit! Divine punishment? It's impossible!!"

However, at this moment, dozens of fireballs suddenly fell from the sky.

Boom, boom, boom... one explosion after another, two of which exploded less than ten meters away from Bai Chi.

Bai Chi and the others were so frightened that they fell directly to the ground. The stone bullets bursting from the fireball shot onto their faces and bodies, leaving blood marks of varying sizes.

Their heads were dazed and their ears hurt because of the explosion. Bai Chi's fourth son was close to the explosion and sparks flew onto his clothes, directly setting them on fire.

“Ahhh… Help! God, I was wrong, I was wrong, please forgive me, please forgive me…”

He fluttered and started running, trying to find a water tank to put out the fire on his body, but there was no water tank or other water source nearby.

Finally, he ran to Bai Chi like a burning man, screaming in pain:

"Father, please get someone to save me, save me!"

Bai Chi endured the pain in his body, took two steps back in horror, and stretched out his hand, shaking it in fear.

"You, don't come over here! I'll call someone to save you! Someone, come! Bring some water! Put out the fire quickly!"

Bai Chi shouted and turned to run, trying to hide in fear.

When the other members of the Bai family saw the fire on his body, they were frightened and ran around.

The fourth brother fell to the ground in pain, rolling around wailing, but the fire on his body did not go out quickly and was still burning.

Soon he passed out and his body began to smell like burnt fat.

After hearing Bai Chi's screams, even though the servants ran over, they were even more terrified when they saw the fire man screaming in pain.

God’s punishment, God’s punishment, this is really God’s punishment.

How dare they save him when he has been tainted by God’s wrath!

The servants who were carrying buckets of water were so frightened that they dropped their buckets on the ground. They were almost peeing their pants. This is not just an expression, many people really did pee.

The fear in their hearts and their long-standing servility made them dare not explore the truth, let alone escape.

Some of them hid in fear, while others just lay on the ground and trembled like animals, waiting for death or painful torture to come.

There were several Zoroastrian servants who knelt on the ground devoutly and began to pray.

"Great God of Fire, the Bai family is filled with filth, the Bai family members' hands are stained with blood, and the garden is filled with corpses. Please bring down more divine punishment..."

"Please, God of Fire, bring down more divine punishment!"

……

Boom, boom, as if their prayers were heard, another wave of fireballs fell from the sky.

Not many, just four or five.

However, these four or five people were like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and Bai Chi could no longer resist.

He hid behind a big rock, trembling, his face full of fear, and had no idea what was going on.

"Father! Father! The whole house is on fire and the servants are all scared out of their wits. Let's get out of here quickly!"

Bai Zi reached out to grab his arm with a look of panic and anxiety on his face, helped him up, and staggered towards the door with him.

"You, your fourth brother..." Bai Chi ran out, still thinking about his fourth son who was on fire, "Where is he? Where did he go? Is the fire on his body out?"

"Father, please don't worry about him. We don't know whether he can survive." Bai Zi said with a frown.

Bai Chi was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but replay the words of the Fifth Prince that day in his mind:

[Divine punishment is the method used by the God of Fire to punish the evil gods. You, the Bai family, have been committing evil deeds and oppressing the people. Wait for the wrath of the God of Fire to fall.]

Bai Chi shuddered all over, his eyes filled with fear. He had previously firmly believed that divine punishment was bullshit and was a trick concocted by the empress.

However, those strange green flames and the fireballs that fell from the sky not only made thunderous noises, but also destroyed rocks...

How to explain all this!

Can the Empress make these things?

If the empress can possess such "divine power", then how can they overthrow her!

After Bai Chi ran out of the gate with the help of his son, he found that the Fifth Prince was wearing a fiery red priest robe, surrounded by dozens of Zoroastrian followers, and was walking towards them step by step.

Because of the raging fire burning behind him, which illuminated half of the sky red and completely dispelled the darkness, Bai Chi could clearly see the fanatical looks on the faces of the believers, which were pious, mad, and full of destructive power.

Bai Chi looked at the Fifth Prince who was surrounded by them. He was high above them, with no expression on his handsome face. He really looked like a messenger of the God of Fire, carrying out God's will on their behalf.

Bai Chi couldn't help but shiver...a deep chill rose in his heart.

The fifth prince walked up to him and stood not far in front of him. The fanatical followers automatically stepped aside to make a path for him.

At the same time, they surrounded Bai Chi and Bai Zi, father and son. They looked at Bai Chi with judgment and revenge in their eyes.

As long as the Fifth Prince gave the order, they would pounce on them immediately, knock them down with a punch, and then eat their flesh and blood.

"You, what do you want to do!"

Bai Chi was surrounded like this, and he was in a panic. His eyes were red, and he shouted at those people fiercely,

"You lowlifes, are you trying to rebel? Get out of the way!"

At this time, the fifth prince finally came before him and looked at him majestically and judgementally.

"Bai Chi, the God of Fire has already brought down his wrath, are you still unrepentant?"

“Fifth Prince, this is what you and the Empress came up with. What kind of divine punishment is this? It’s ridiculous…” Bai Chi pointed at the Fifth Prince and cursed angrily.

When he saw the Fifth Prince's arrogant face, he remembered how he had been timid in front of him before. It was particularly ironic, and he started cursing without caring about the situation.

However, he simply couldn't continue to curse.

Because although the believers on both sides did not take action, they had already raised their hands and shouted.

"God of Fire, bring down divine punishment. Burn him to death! Burn him to death! Purify him of his filth!"

Bai Chi looked to both sides, staring fiercely at his followers who were shouting that they wanted to burn him to death, and shuddered violently.

He was scared, he was afraid.

These untouchables have obviously lost their minds and may not be able to withstand any more provocation.

The fifth prince frowned slightly, then turned his palm over, and a light blue flame ignited in the palm of his hand.

Seeing this scene, the believers became even more crazy. They all knelt down, lowered their heads and prayed devoutly, not daring to look at the sacred fire.

Bai Chi was also dumbfounded, pointing at the Fifth Prince and asking in a trembling voice, "How did you do that?!"

The fifth prince snorted, his face distorted, then he flipped his hand and the flames disappeared.

Ouch, it hurts. I was burned by the fire just now. I almost messed up. I have to practice this phosphorous fire trick well when I go back.

"Since you are still stubborn, accept the punishment from the God of Fire!"

As he spoke, the Fifth Prince took a few steps back and asked the followers to disperse and retreat to both sides. Then he raised his hands to the sky, raised his head and shouted,

"God of Fire, please bring down your divine punishment! Punish this unrepentant wicked man and let him personally experience pain and death!"

boom!

With a gunshot, Bai Chi was knocked down the next moment.

A hole was punched in his chest and his flesh and blood splattered on both sides.

Bai Chi covered his chest with his hands, his eyes widened in horror, his mouth trembled, but in the end, he said nothing. His body fell backwards, deader than dead.

Seeing this, the followers on both sides became even more fanatical, and kept shouting "Fire God, Fire God, Fire God".

Although he knew this would happen, the Fifth Prince was still a little scared when he saw Bai Chi die in front of him.

His hands were clenched into fists out of nervousness and fear, but fortunately his hands were kept in his wide sleeves so no one could see them.

He tried hard to control his expression and not let himself show any signs of weakness.

Bai Zi, who was right beside him, saw his father's bizarre death, and the tension in his heart completely broke.

With a click, he knelt down, kowtowed to the Fifth Prince in despair and fear, begging for mercy.

"God of Fire, God's messenger, woo woo woo... I was wrong, I am guilty, I repent, I will definitely repent, please, God of Fire, don't kill me..."
