Capítulo 1747: Chapter 1754 Liu Xi Performs Surgery (4)
The speed of Brother Ying was very fast, catching up with the two horses in a blink of an eye, but the speed of the Old Turtle was not comndable. By the ti it sluggishly found the location of the Soul Calming Powder, Juhua’s horse carriage had already run out of sight.
“Caw—”
Brother Ying let out a call, and after grabbing the Soul Calming Powder, it imdiately dashed out from the space and chased after the two crazy horses like lightning.
Fortunately, when it caught up with the crazy horses and managed to daze them, Shen Juhua and Aunt Zhou were unhard, though they were both frightened out of their wits, holding each other while trembling all over, unable to speak a word.
When Cai Wei arrived, she invited Juhua and Aunt Zhou into her own carriage and comforted them for a while before the master and servant gradually cald down.
Once settled, Juhua clutched Cai Wei’s neck, crying out in terror, “Cai Wei, I thought I was dood. It scared to death, sob sob…” Aunt Zhou, murmuring with a prayer, whispered, “Amitabha Buddha, thank goodness for the Empress Dowager’s benevolence and protection, otherwise, the old servant and the Miss would have been ill-fated today…”
Cai Wei soothed them for a while longer. The ti had long passed the Shenshi appointed by Juhua as Cai Wei said, “The appointed ti has passed. I wonder if that Zhang Tiezui will still give a fortune telling.”
At this mont, the coachman sitting at the coach’s box suddenly cried out, “Madam, there’s a fire ahead, a big fire!”
Upon hearing this, Cai Wei said in surprise, “How can there be a fire in such heavy rain?”
The coachman said, “But there really is a fire, oh… it seems to be the Fate House that you were going to!”
Upon hearing this, Cai Wei and Juhua both paused for a mont, disregarding the heavy rain outside as they hurriedly stretched their heads out.
Sure enough, not far away, a shop had already turned into a sea of fire, and upon closer inspection, it was indeed the Fate House they were heading to. The old, lush locust tree in front of the Fate House had been split into two, burnt into two black charcoals, seemingly caused by lightning!
“Oh dear, it’s really the Fate House on fire, Amitabha Buddha, it must be Zhang Tiezui’s fortune telling revealing heavenly secrets, struck dead by the Thunder Lord sent by heaven…”
Aunt Zhou murmured again, starting to pray silently.
Juhua exclaid, “Quick, there must be soone in the Fate House, let’s go down and see if we can save them!”
“No need, look, the shop has already burnt to the ground, how could anyone survive that?”
Cai Wei silently watched the shop, now swallowed by the sea of fire, feeling a hidden fear in her heart: if they hadn’t encountered Mo Zili on the road, or if Juhua’s horse carriage hadn’t been startled by thunder, at this mont they would probably have been in the sea of fire, even though she could enter the space, the speed of lightning was much faster than her, and its temperature ranged from seventeen thousand to twenty-eight thousand degrees Celsius, equivalent to three to five tis the surface temperature of the sun, perhaps she would have turned to ashes before she even entered the space…
If she died, what would happen to her husband and children left in the space? Would they be forever trapped in space, or would they be ejected from it? If they were ejected, wouldn’t they be thrown right into the sea of fire…
Thinking about this, her heart trembled, and an unexplainable pain surged up…
“So pitiful, who knows how many people were in that Fate House, they’re probably all dead now,” Juhua looked at the Fate House, now reduced to ruins, feeling extrely saddened.
Aunt Zhou said, “Miss, don’t be sad, just be grateful. If we hadn’t encountered Young Master Mo, or if our horse hadn’t been startled, we might not have escaped calamity today. It is all thanks to the Empress Dowager’s blessings and protection that we have repeatedly turned peril into safety…”
