Chapter 531 Holding Hands
Si He followed Yue Fuli out from behind the post station. It was dark all around, with only the moonlight illuminating the night a little.
But there were many trees around, and they walked under the trees, which made their figures very hidden, and their movements were not loud, so they did not attract attention.
After leaving the garden, they came to a pavilion halfway up the mountain on the side of the post station, from where they could have a panoramic view of the entire post station.
At this time, a group of soldiers had hidden outside the post station. They were very familiar with the terrain here and cleverly avoided the sight of those people in the distant mountains and forests.
At this time, most of the lights in the post station were off, leaving only the area where the Shan family lived brightly lit.
Not long after Si Hehe arrived at the pavilion, some people from the distant hillside began to come quickly to the post station under the cover of night.
Looking at the group of people coming to attack from a distance, Si He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yue Fuli. He was familiar with the style of these people. It seemed that they had conducted a lot of investigations before.
At this moment, Yue Fuli's gaze was also looking at the group of sneaky people in the distance, but the curve of his lips was so cold that it made people frightened, and a hint of hostility began to emanate from his body.
"Whoosh whoosh—"
When those people approached the post station, they began to shoot arrows into the post station, and the arrows were tied with smoke bombs. After dozens of arrows were shot into the post station, thick smoke suddenly billowed.
"There's a sneak attack!"
The guards of the Shan family immediately noticed something was wrong and began to attack those who had attacked them by surprise.
For a while, the fighting outside the post station was very fierce.
At this moment, the soldiers who stayed in the post to cover up their tracks quickly evacuated from the rear.
The attackers were well-trained and had good skills. They quickly forced the Shan family into the post station and pressed forward step by step.
While thick smoke was billowing in the post station, many places were also on fire, with screams and chaos everywhere.
Just when a small number of "thieves" rushed into the post station, the Yue family's soldiers suddenly surrounded them from the outside, blocked them, and forced them all towards the post station. The attack was very fierce.
At the same time, some soldiers also learned from their previous practice and shot sharp arrows with thick smoke at them, and the situation was reversed in an instant.
These "thieves" were attacked from both sides, with the Shan family guards inside and the large number of Yue family soldiers outside. The "thieves" suddenly found it very difficult to fight.
"Damn it!" The leading 'thief' cursed inwardly and was about to lead his men to attack, but suddenly his legs went weak and it was obvious that he had been drugged!
It's the thick smoke that's poisonous!
Although the cigarettes they shot before also had problems and they both took the antidote in advance, the cigarettes used by both parties were different!
Moreover, those soldiers were outside the post station and were not affected by the smoke at all!
After a while, the "thieves" collapsed to the ground, exhausted and powerless, ready to be slaughtered.
However, there were still some people who had been holding their breath alertly and tried to escape from behind the post station, but as soon as they left the post station, they were shot and killed by the soldiers in the dark. Even those from the Shan family were not spared.
At this moment, the post station was in a truly dire situation. A group of soldiers, holding knives, harvested the lives of those lying on the ground one by one. They killed without stopping, leaving no one alive, including the Shan family.
Si He watched the situation at the post station from afar for a while before tentatively asking Yue Fuli, "Husband, do you know who sent those attackers?"
Yue Fuli turned to look at her. The light was a little dim. He said "hmm". After a while, he turned back and continued to look in the direction of the post station. He replied, "The people sent by Lao Si."
There was a chill in his voice, and the light from the fire in the distance reflected in his eyes, which were also icy.
What he didn't say was that it was his father's intention that made Yue Zidan so bold. However, there was no need to tell her about these things.
Si He was not surprised to hear this answer. She did not say much about how he handled the Shan family's affairs. They were on opposite sides, and those people naturally could not live, especially after what happened tonight. If they were allowed to go to Changping City, who knows how they would turn right into wrong.
Si He also looked into the distance again. There were screams, pleas for mercy and panicked cries coming from there. After a while, these sounds gradually stopped.
Her eyes were indifferent, and there was no ripple in her heart.
After a long while, the inn finally quieted down, the burning fire was extinguished, and the soldiers began to clean up the scene.
"Let's go."
Yue Fuli said something to her and turned to walk out of the pavilion.
Si He hurriedly followed, and when she reached his side, she reached out and held his hand.
Yue Fuli paused, stopped, and turned to look at her. He saw that her eyes were pure, revealing a hint of expectation and imperceptible temptation.
Her hands were slightly cool, but delicate to the touch. When she held his hand, his heart was stirred again, but his expression remained unchanged, only his eyes became deeper when he looked at her.
This was the first time the two of them held hands like this, which made Yue Fuli feel a little uncomfortable. However, he didn't say anything and didn't struggle. He quickly withdrew his gaze, then held her hand and continued walking forward.
Seeing this, Si He couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips and followed him out.
The soldiers around were a little surprised to see the two walking hand in hand, but they quickly looked away. An old saying suddenly flashed through their minds: 'Even a hero cannot resist the temptation of a beautiful woman', and their indifferent master was no exception.
At this moment, the moon came out from behind the clouds, and the bright moonlight shone down. The two people walked side by side, their hazy outlines outlined by the silver light.
The man's shadow was tall and straight, while the woman's shadow was light and slender. Their hands were tightly clasped, and their shadows were intertwined together, as if even the moonlight could not bear to disturb this intimacy.
Yue Fuli's originally calm thoughts were interrupted by her hand-holding action. While walking, the touch and temperature of her palm continued to affect him.
The distance from the pavilion halfway up the mountain to the carriage at the foot of the mountain was actually not very close. The two of them were silent all the way, but the atmosphere had changed.
Si He was happy in her heart and hoped that this road would be longer and longer.
But time seemed to pass in the blink of an eye, and the road had unknowingly reached its end. The two stopped in front of the carriage, and Yue Fuli said to her, "Get in. We need to leave tonight."
Although the matter here has been dealt with, no one can guarantee that there will be no problems in the second half of the night, and this inn is no longer habitable.
Yue Fuli was about to let go of her hand, but she suddenly held it tightly. She looked at him eagerly and said, "Husband, will you come with me?"
"Yeah." He responded.
Hearing this, the corners of her lips raised slightly, and then she said: "Then can you ride in the carriage with me?"
