The sky-high flames woke up countless sleeping people and the higher-ups of the Congress.
When General Xiaori ran out of the house in his pajamas that he hadn't buttoned up in time, he was stunned when he looked in the direction they were about to pay their respects.
Then, his phone rang.
"General, bad news! The temple is on fire!!!”
“...........”
The trembling general roared,""I have eyes and can see. What are you doing? Put out the fire!!!”
"Ha Yi!"
The trembling voice on the other end of the phone sounded like she was about to cry as she hung up the phone.
Soon, the police car sped across the road.
More people were awakened from their sleep.
When these people got up in confusion and opened the window to look outside.
For a moment, they were stunned and stood rooted to the ground.
It was gone! There was nothing left!
Their ancestor was furious!
It was a real soaring flame mixed with rolling smoke, as if it was warning the world of something, or... A joke of fate…
The fire came and went quickly.
With the full support of the fire department in Xijing, the fire was quickly extinguished, but even so, it was already too late.
After the raging fire was put out.
The temple that they had once believed in was now only a scorched ruin.
At this moment, Xiao Ri's faith seemed to have collapsed.
Countless people cried in the middle of the night.
The mournful cries echoed in the sky above Xijing.
Further away, the ignorant little Japanese covered their heads with a blanket and muttered a curse before falling asleep again.
They had no idea what had happened that night!
In the Congress Hall.
General Xiao Ri sat at the head of the long table with a gloomy expression.
Below, the Extremists and Conservatives sat on either side of the long table. They were clearly separated, as if they were minding their own business, but also as if they were always at loggerheads.
No one spoke in the entire conference hall.
Because no one dared to speak first.
It could be seen from the expression of the First General.
They probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
The tomb of the ancestor had been burned down. If they did not investigate this matter thoroughly, no one would be able to leave this place today.
Moreover, the fire happened so coincidentally.
The night before they were to pay their respects.
At this moment, the Conservatives couldn't help but have a thought.
Perhaps, the old ancestor was really angry.
He was using this fire to vent his dissatisfaction.
For Xiao Ri's current situation, it was a warning to the world.
However, the radical faction had a completely different thought.
They felt that their ancestor must have been angry because of the recent disaster and the cowardice of the Conservatives.
"Why aren't you talking?"
The deep voice of the Chief General rang out in the conference hall. It was filled with murderous intent and suppressed anger.
"How did this fire start? Have you figured it out yet?"
The deep roar made everyone in the conference hall tremble.
"Reporting to General, we are already doing our best to investigate. We will definitely be able to give you a satisfactory answer tomorrow!!!”
"Bullshit!" The general slammed the table and stood up in anger.
"Does it matter how the fire started? What do you think we should do now?"
"Tomorrow's worship will be with your heads!!!”
Following the general's roar, everyone present stood up nervously, but they did not dare to speak anymore. They lowered their heads in silence.
However, the general's anger still hadn't subsided.
"The news of our worship has already been released. The people of the empire already know about it. The other party is also watching us. Even the international community is paying attention to this matter.”
"How am I going to explain this to the world? The entire world will see my Great Day Empire as a joke. Doesn't your face hurt?!!”
The higher-ups present lowered their heads even more.
From the trembling bodies of the radical faction, it could be seen that they were also trying their best to suppress their anger, or perhaps they were feeling uneasy because they did not know how to explain it to the outside world.
The situation on the conservative side was slightly better. They did not agree to pay homage at this time, but they did not expect that even the heavens would help them.
However, when they thought about it carefully, the burning of the temple was also a great humiliation to them. Thinking about it like this, they could not be happy no matter what.
At this moment, there was only endless wailing in their hearts.
Why was their luck so bad recently?
One moment it was a typhoon, the next moment it was an aircraft carrier sinking, and the next moment it was a temple burning down.
It was as if the heavens were going against them.
No matter how he looked at it, it was strange.
Could it be that the ancestor was really angry and punished them?
The general's expression darkened as he looked at the higher-ups who had lowered their heads.
However, he also knew that even if he executed all these people in front of him at this time, it would not be of any help to the current situation.
Next, he had to think about how to clean up this mess.
"Do your best to investigate the cause of the fire. I want to know the details tomorrow morning. Also, there must be no mistakes in the re-deployment of the aircraft carrier military exercise.”
"At all costs, do you understand?!!”
As soon as he finished speaking, General Little Day turned around and left.
Only then did the higher-ups behind him react. They bowed and roared,
"Ha Yi!"
......
In the hotel, late at night.
Lu Chengfeng was woken up by his phone ringing.
In a daze, he picked up the phone. Chen Zhaoping was slightly excited, but he was trying hard to suppress his voice from coming out of the phone.
" Chengfeng, good news!"
"What's going on?"
Hearing Chen Zhaoping's voice, Lu Chengfeng immediately sat up on the bed. His mind cleared up a little, and he asked with confusion in his eyes.
On the other side, Chen Zhaoping seemed to be adjusting his mood as he took a deep breath.
Then, he said in a deep voice,"The temple of a small day was burned down by a fire!"”
“？？？”Lu Chengfeng was stunned.
Thinking that he had heard wrongly, he asked again in a strange manner,"What the hell?"
"You didn't hear wrongly. Just now, the temple that we were going to visit on tomorrow's small day was burned down by a big fire. Awesome!"
Chen Zhaoping couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Lu Chengfeng was stunned for two seconds before he finally reacted.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He could not help but look out the window and mutter to himself.
"This matter... He had to remind them that the weather was dry and things were dry. They had to be careful of candles!”
On the other side, Chen Zhaoping couldn't help but burst out laughing again. Then, he nodded seriously.
"Yes, I think you're right. There's indeed a need to send a message to comfort and remind them. How can they be so careless in such weather?”
The two of them held the phone and started discussing meaningfully.
How can we send this message without making others feel that we are gloating, but also reflecting our deep feelings of mourning?
Thinking about it, it was really a technical job!
