Can I become the Yu-Gi-Oh by summoning the Flame Swordsman?

After the duel, [Explosive Swordsman] and [Legendary Explosive Fire User] did not disappear immediately, but instead controlled the flames at the scene to prevent the fire from harming Bai Chu. Bai Chu quickly put away the duel disk and helped the old doctor up from the ground.

"Old man, get up quickly, my monsters will protect us out."

Bai Chu carried the old man on his back and ran out the door, but the door frame collapsed at this moment. The old man couldn't help but scream in fear: "Ah——"

Because he was carrying someone on his back, Bai Chu was unable to move swiftly to dodge, and at the moment before he was about to be killed, the [Legendary Pyro] swung a fire bomb, shattering the wooden beams and stones.

Although the temperature around him was so high that Bai Chu was almost unconscious, cold sweat broke out on his back and evaporated instantly. Bai Chu turned around and looked at the two monsters: "Let's go."

Just as Bai Chu was about to turn around and run for his life, he heard a vague cry in his ear: "Bai Chu, Bai Chu, where are you?"

This is Qin Liu's voice.

“Damn it! I forgot about Qin Liu.” Bai Chu handed the old man, whose consciousness was already fading, to the [Legendary Blaster]. “Please take him out. The [Blast Swordsman] and I have people to save!”

Bai Chu ran back as fast as he could. Qin Liu's room was right next to his. When he arrived, he saw two hooks on her door, which were now bolted with iron bolts. Even if the door was opened from the inside, it could not be opened at all in this situation.

"Damn it, I should have seen through it earlier. I don't know how many people Lu has burned to death using the same method." Bai Chu, eager to save people, reached out to remove the horizontal bolt. The moment he touched it, it was as if he had grabbed a red-hot iron, and white smoke hissed out.

“Ah——” Bai Chu pulled his hand back in pain, almost rolling on the ground in pain. At this moment, there was some movement inside the door: “Bai Chu…is that your voice?”

[The Explosive Swordsman] swung his sword at the door in front of him, instantly splitting the horizontal bolt in two. Bai Chu endured the severe pain in his hand and pushed the door open, only to see Qin Liu lying at the door dying. Perhaps because she had wet the ground with water, she had not been burned, but was having difficulty breathing and was almost suffocated.

"White cluster, white cluster..."

"Qin Liu, wake up." Bai Chu stepped forward and picked up Qin Liu, shaking him non-stop to wake him up: "Hold on, I'll take you out, don't fall asleep!"

"Bai Chu, am I going to die?" Qin Liu buried his head in Bai Chu's chest and said incoherently, "What bad luck... I'm going to die with you."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Bai Chu embraced Qin Liu's body. After catching a cold, his physical strength was obviously weakened, but at this moment, he was supported by a strong belief and did not fall down. "【Explosive Swordsman】, let's go! You lead the way!"

Bai Chu exhausted all his strength to walk through the fire, and finally saw a hint of darkness in the bright firelight. It was the night outside the door that was blasted open by the [Legendary Explosive Envoy].

When Bai Chu ran to the door, he had completely lost his strength. He stumbled and fell to the ground with Qin Liu in his arms. The [Explosive Swordsman] turned around and tried to help Bai Chu up.

Bai Chu grabbed the wrist of [Explosive Swordsman] and said with his remaining strength: "Take her out. This is my last order to you."

……

The next day.

At dawn, Lu Hongying stood in the middle of the street. His officers were holding gongs and beating them from house to house, cursing, "Hurry up, you lowly people! Master Lu, who is busy with all kinds of affairs, has already gotten up, and you are still sleeping!"

Under the light of the lanterns held by the officers and soldiers, the people of the city stumbled together and found that all the wooden fences on both sides of the road had been knocked down overnight.

Originally they could only crawl through the hole under the wooden fence like dogs, but now they can straighten their backs and step directly onto the road.

"Are you all here?" As soon as Lu Hongying spoke, the officers and soldiers drew their swords to intimidate, and the whole place fell silent willingly. "Who secretly tore down these murals depicting my achievements last night? Is it because I have arrested fewer people in my prison recently, and they are all tired of living?"

Today was a day when Lu Hongying was in a good mood. She got up early in the morning and couldn't wait to check out the situation at the fire scene.

Bai Chu's cold attitude last night made Lu Hongying extremely unhappy. When had Lu Hongying, who was used to being the local emperor of Guan'er County, ever been looked down upon like this? Only by appreciating the death of the eunuch Xi'an could he comfort his wounded heart.

But as soon as he left the yamen, he was so angry that he almost fainted. The wall of great achievements that he had painted with great effort all over the street was all torn down overnight, covered with footprints and in a mess.

This was a huge project that he had spent a huge amount of money on. He wanted to leave his name in history based on this and become a great man praised by all ages. Anyone who dared to challenge him on this land would be courting death!

"Speak, are you mute?!" Lu Hongying shouted harshly.

"Sir, Sir!" A man cried heartbreakingly in the crowd, crawling forward and kowtowed three times. "Sir, the Shengshi Inn that I run caught fire last night. My family of four all died in the fire. You have to help me."

Normally, the owner of Shengshi Inn often gave money to Lu Hongying as a filial piety. With the tolerance and policy guidance of the local magistrate, his business was the best among all the inns in Guan'er County. Therefore, the man guessed that it must be the jealousy of his peers that led to this evil move.

Lu Hongying frowned and looked at the man: "Why didn't you die? Where did you go yesterday?"

"Sir, after entertaining your distinguished guests last night, they went to rest. I gave the key to Bai Haisheng and went to the brothel to listen to some songs. When I returned home this morning, I found that my house was gone... Bai Haisheng was also missing. Yes, it must have been done by this traitor."

Lu Hongying narrowed her eyes: "If you suspect Bai Haisheng, then you suspect me?"

"My lord, my lord, I dare not!"

"It's just a fire, what's the big deal? I sent Bai Haisheng to do something for me, so don't be suspicious or slander him anymore." Lu Hongying said indifferently.

"Besides, your inn was only burned, but no one was hurt. I have organized people to rescue your family in time. At the moment, I arranged for them to rest in the county government office. If you are worried about them, you can go visit them now."

"Really?" The innkeeper was overjoyed and kowtowed hurriedly, "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!"

Lu Hongying tilted her head and gestured, "Go ahead."

The innkeeper was so happy that he crawled towards the yamen. Lu Hongying watched his back as he left, slowly turned his head, and showed a cruel smile to his men.

Immediately, several officers disappeared silently into the crowd.

"Let's talk about my street beautification column." Lu Hongying regained his serious dead fish eyes. "I am very disappointed in you, you know? You have a county magistrate like me who is worried about the country and the people and exhausted. It is a blessing you earned in your previous life, but you never know how to cherish it.

When the locusts come, cities that are not prepared will become dead cities overnight. When the locusts have eaten all the crops, they will go crazy and eat the flesh and blood of humans. Just imagine, the swarms of insects fly from the sky, surround you and bite you, leaving only a skeleton.

I am not exaggerating. I protected you and did not let you leave Guan'er County. I cared about your safety and led you to hunt locusts. None of you were bitten to death or eaten by locusts, right? You dared to secretly resist me. You are in a blessed situation but do not know how to appreciate it. Guan'er County is called a paradise by the hungry people outside. Do you know that?

In order to fight against the locust plague, I often suffered from sleepless nights. In order to give you food, I only ate those poisonous locusts. A few days ago, it was my son's coming-of-age ceremony, but I missed his coming-of-age ceremony because of the locust control work. He wrote to me, worried about my health and asked me to love myself more.

But can I do it? I can’t. In my heart, I am always the last one and you are the first one.

Many people say that the locust plague is over and we can let you go now. There is no need to buy locust catching tools to catch locusts collectively. This idea is totally wrong! The locusts have not disappeared, they have just mutated into other forms and continue to harm our crops. We cannot relax for a moment. Not only can we not relax, but we must be more active in catching locusts to defeat the locust plague. "

Lu Hongying's mouth was dry as she spoke. She pinched her throat and changed the subject directly: "I have been talking for so long, but no one has admitted that they pushed down the street beautification fence? No one has reported it yet? You are hopeless, which means you are a group crime!

According to my law, those who destroy state property shall be executed immediately to serve as a warning to others. Even if it is a group crime, they shall be executed collectively and there will be no leniency. None of you can escape! Of course, you can also raise money to build a new street beautification fence for me. I have calculated that each person only needs to pay one or two taels of silver to draw a clear line with this matter. "

As soon as Lu Hongying finished speaking, the scene exploded with discussion. No matter how much nonsense he said, the core content was only the last sentence: pay the money. But discussion was discussion, and the numb crowd could only be angry but not speak out. Some were already thinking about how to raise money to avoid the disaster.

"County Magistrate Lu, this is the first time I've heard someone describe plundering the people's wealth in such a moving way. The person you're looking for is me. It was me who overturned your shameless wooden fences."

"Who is talking?" Lu Hongying's face changed drastically, and he shouted sternly: "Stand up!"

The crowd of people dispersed, fearing that the blood would splash on them if they got too close, and then the person standing in the middle of the crowd and speaking was revealed.

Although the person in front of him looked very disheveled, his clothes seemed to be burnt into pieces, his face was covered with charcoal ash, black and white spots, but Lu Hongying still recognized the person in front of him at a glance.

"Xi'an!" Lu Hongying was horrified: "You're not dead? Are you a human or a ghost?"

"County Magistrate Lu, I want to tell you something. The mouthparts of locusts are not capable of biting people. Therefore, locusts will not eat people under any circumstances. The ones that really eat people are..."

Lu Hongying said anxiously, "How dare you! How dare you spread rumors to confuse the people! Come, execute him on the spot!"

The officers and soldiers drew their swords and prepared to kill people in the streets. Seeing this, Bai Chu quickly put on his duel disk and said, "Summon the [Flame Swordsman]!"

The tall warrior wielding the flaming sword stood in front of Bai Chu, causing the officers and soldiers under Lu Hongying to look up and not dare to approach.

"County Magistrate Lu, I feel very sad about you missing your son's coming-of-age ceremony. I feel sad because, in the face of the locust plague, how many people's sons have lost their lives? How many people have put their weddings on hold, and have simple funerals and hastily buried them? But you tell me that you missed your son's coming-of-age ceremony? Do you want me to cry bitterly? Do you want me to shed tears of gratitude?"

"What do you know, Xian? How can these lowly people be compared with my son? Do you care whether you crush 1,000 or 10,000 ants with one kick? My son is the future social elite and the pillar of Daguang. How much psychological trauma will my absence from his coming-of-age ceremony bring to him? You, a eunuch, know nothing!"

"I don't want to waste my time talking to a hopeless person like you." Bai Chu's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Let's duel!"
