According to records, the house it lived in was struck by lightning and caused a fire. Elgin suddenly suffered a heart attack due to panic, lost the ability to move, and was burned to death in the room.

In an instant, Suddenly a thunderbolt fell from the sky. Little Elgin did not have time to leave the room and was burned alive in the room. It is said that he was burned to death in the room because he had a heart attack and lost the ability to move.

Crime introduction:

Elgin’s family genes are full of robbers and hooligans. It was Xiao Erjin who burned the Old Summer Palace. His father looted the Parthenon in ancient Greece. Like father, like son, it can be said that this is most vividly demonstrated in the case of this father and son. Among them, what Ergin did was even more serious. Because it destroyed too many cultural relics.

According to statistics, nearly 1.5 million cultural relics have been looted! These include bronze ritual vessels from China's pre-Qin period, as well as famous calligraphy and paintings from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as various rare treasures. Not to mention the cultural relics that were burned in the fire.

Not only that, the Old Summer Palace was built with the help of three generations of emperors and is a perfect architectural complex in world history. As a result, a fire completely wiped these beautiful garden arts from the world. However, just burning cultural relics and buildings, how can Elgin satisfy his appetite? In the fire that lasted three days and nights, nearly 300 eunuchs, maids, and craftsmen were also killed. This is simply a complete atrocity in the history of human civilization.
