Chapter 427 Mutation
"Of course!" Seeing Yi Qianhuan said she wanted more lanterns, the little girl was very excited, "I can go find my dad, he has a lot of them!"
Seeing the little girl's excited face, Yi Qianhuan simply pulled her arm and walked forward.
Walking all the way to a fork in the road ahead, Yi Qianhuan had not even entered the alley when he suddenly felt an ominous premonition.
That was Yi Qianhuan's completely subconscious reaction. It was like her sixth sense was activated instantly, making all the nerves in her body tense up.
Yi Qianhuan shook off the little girl's hand without even a moment's hesitation.
It would have been difficult for the child to grab Yi Qianhuan for a while after his thin arms were thrown away.
But this little girl did it.
The little girl seemed to have anticipated that Yi Qianhuan would push her away, so she grabbed Yi Qianhuan's hand extra tightly, and clung to him almost the moment Yi Qianhuan pushed her away, not even giving Yi Qianhuan any room to breathe.
The little girl's rapid speed made Yi Qianhuan feel the danger more clearly.
"Sister, didn't you say you wanted to buy my lotus lantern?" The little girl's voice was filled with resentment. She was gradually tightening her grip on Yi Qianhuan's hand. "Sister, please don't go back on your word, or my dad will beat me. Sister, you don't know, but when my dad beats people, it hurts so much. I'm in so much pain, and I'm so scared. Sister, please help me..."
"Let go!" Yi Qianhuan said, and suddenly saw the little girl break the handle of the lotus lantern in her hand.
Boom boom boom——!
The small lotus lantern instantly turned into a bomb. The explosion was so powerful that the terrible impact force quickly enveloped the little girl in the thick smoke of the explosion, and Yi Qianhuan herself was completely swallowed up by the smoke.
Even though she was swallowed by the explosion, the little girl still held on to Yi Qianhuan's hand stubbornly.
Yi Qianhuan struggled in vain and could only use force.
It was like something was broken, and Yi Qianhuan felt that his arm, which was held by the little girl, was empty.
Thick smoke was billowing all around. Yi Qianhuan coughed a few times and looked down, and saw that he was holding the little girl's arm.
The little girl herself disappeared, only half of her burnt arm was still held in her hand!
A strong feeling of disgust arose spontaneously, and Yi Qianhuan immediately dropped the little girl's arm and slowly backed away with a cold face.
"Governor, there's something wrong with this lotus lantern!" Yi Qianhuan said as he snatched the lotus lantern from Ji Chilian's hand and threw it out.
The moment the lotus lantern fell to the ground, the handle broke, and the lotus lantern, which was originally emitting a faint light, suddenly exploded. The splashing flames burned a charred black hole on the ground.
"Ah! What's that noise!" The people in the surrounding crowd immediately heard the loud noise. Many people were surprised, and there was a commotion in the crowd.
Yi Qianhuan quickly searched for Yi Mobao and Shen Yubao among the crowd.
However, before she could find it, an explosion suddenly sounded in the crowd.
boom--!
The atmosphere, which was already filled with intense anxiety, was completely boiled over by this explosion!
"The lotus lantern exploded! Help!"
"Don't push! My child is missing! Please don't move, I want to find my child!"
"Woooooo! Mommy, I want mommy!"
"The lotus lantern really exploded! Quick, throw the lotus lantern away!"
The crowd on the street immediately became chaotic. The explosion of the lotus lanterns was like pouring all the water into a hot oil pan, which immediately caused a huge commotion!
There were already many people on the street, and at this moment a group of people were pushed forward, with many people in the crowd falling to the ground.
All of a sudden, cries, screams, and curses all came out at once.
"Everyone, don't be anxious or panic, and don't crowd! Everyone, hold on to the lotus lanterns in your hands, and don't let the handles break!" Yi Qianhuan could easily tell from the situation just now that the handles of these lotus lanterns should be the switches that control the explosion.
Once the handle of the lotus lamp breaks, the lotus lamp will explode immediately.
The explosion of the lotus lantern will cause even greater commotion, so it can be said that since the explosion of the first lotus lantern, the current situation has fallen into an unsolvable vicious circle!
Yi Qianhuan's voice was quickly drowned out by the crowd. The people now had completely lost their minds, and no one could hear Yi Qianhuan's voice at all.
And because of the people's irrational crowding, more explosions were heard in the air, one after another, almost shattering people's eardrums.
At this moment, the crowd dispersed. Everyone wanted to leave. They rushed in different directions. Some of them were strong enough to rush out, but most of them were knocked down by the swarming crowd and were soon trampled under the feet of other people.
"Jinyiwei, find a way to maintain order!" Ji Chilian blew the whistle he carried with him.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards arrived quickly and tried to maintain order.
Unfortunately, the crowd was in complete chaos, and the people were completely consumed by panic and had completely lost all reason.
The Jinyiwei were unable to disperse the crowd. All they could do was to help up the innocent people who had fallen to the ground and send them to a safe place as much as possible.
However, even though the Jinyiwei tried their best, they were still unable to avoid the influx of people.
The panic continued, and Yi Qianhuan never saw Yi Mobao and Shen Yubao in the crowd.
It is certain that this is not a coincidence. Yi Qianhuan has a strong premonition that things before his eyes are not that simple.
If the purpose was just to cause a commotion, there would be no need to go to all this trouble.
There must be someone who wants to take advantage of the current chaos to stir up some trouble.
But Yi Qianhuan had no idea what would happen. A strong sense of uneasiness gathered in her heart, causing her heartbeat to speed up even more.
She had to find a way to stop what was going to happen next.
Thinking of this, Yi Qianhuan raised his head and looked at the tallest clock tower nearby.
He turned around and ran towards the clock tower. Before Yi Qianhuan could leave, he was grabbed by Ji Chilian who was beside him.
"Yi Qianhuan, where are you going? I'll go with you." Ji Chilian said as he caught up with Yi Qianhuan.
Yi Qianhuan made a prompt decision and said, "No, you continue to evacuate the people here and save as many people as possible. I need to find a way to calm all these people down."
"You can't do it. The people are in chaos now. You can't calm them down in this situation. Tragedy is bound to happen. You have to stay with me now to avoid further calculations!"
What happened today was definitely not a coincidence. In this case, they must not take it lightly until the matter is completely over.
"I'm not afraid that things are directed at me. What I'm worried about now are Mobao and Yubao." Yi Qianhuan looked at Ji Chilian's wavering eyes, insisted on shaking off Ji Chilian's hand, and rushed to the bell tower as fast as possible.
