A black shadow moved downwards against the tree trunk above his head. Si Yiluo drew his sword and raised it. A shrill scream made the others pause.
There was another sound of something heavy hitting the ground.
Si Yiluo tapped his toes, hooked his legs on the tree trunk, and placed his body across the assassin's head. The blood on the knife dripped down, and the assassin raised his head, exposing his neck.
The smell of blood filled the forest, making the beasts restless.
Si Yiluo disappeared amid their heavy siege.
Lin Qiu met several people.
"Boss, we are all going to die tonight. Even if it costs our lives, we can't let Mr. Ge be exposed!"
Lin Qiu was not sure whether Si Yiluo left or lay dormant, slapping the person who spoke hard on the head.
"Idiot! The enemy is hidden and we are clear, yet you still dare to talk without hesitation? Haven't you learned enough from the last time?"
The night wind blew the leaves rustling, and the yellow fallen leaves fluttered down. There were hoarse roars of wild beasts around. Si Yiluo jumped from one tree to another.
The assassins below are still plotting.
"If anyone finds traces of her again, don't go all out and lead her to the mechanism we have arranged. There is a stone spring there. I accidentally discovered it during the day. She should have gone there..."
"No wonder we lost someone nearby last night. Boss, do you think she will come tonight? We have already alerted the snake..."
During their discussion, Si Yiluo was a little worried about whether Wei Heyan would go there tonight...
Now that she knew where their trap was, Si Yiluo should have walked in the opposite direction. Before she could make a decision, he was already one step ahead of her, heading in the direction of Shi Quan.
Si Yiluo comforted herself in her heart, she was not worried about him, she was here to see a joke. If Wei Heyan couldn't escape this plot, he would not be Wei Heyan.
There were many traps used in the forest. It was dark at night and the forest was quiet. She was careful every step she took, not only to explore the traps on the trees, but also to explore the traps on the ground, and to avoid Lin Qiu's search.
It took her half an hour to discover the slender threads entangled among the branches. A faint sweet smell lingered on the tip of her nose. These threads were smeared with blood-sealing poison.
Throwing out a dart, what made the rustling sound in the forest was not the fallen leaves, but the mechanism of the crossbow. After a while of movement, she slid down from the tree close to the trunk, picked up a stone and threw it out.
Where the stone rolled, the sharp blade protruding from the ground glowed coldly.
These people really spent a lot of money to kill her!
Before Si Yiluo had time to explore whether there were other institutions here, she suddenly fell into a hot embrace and kissed her so fiercely that she couldn't breathe.
An arm was wrapped tightly around her waist, and she struggled to push him away. Because she used too much force, she took two steps back and leaned against the tree trunk.
"Wei Heyan, why are you so crazy?"
She held a hidden weapon in her hand, and if she hadn't smelled the unique smell on his body, she would have cut his throat long ago.
"Ha..." A sarcastic laugh came from his throat, "You were entangled with the governor last night, and tonight you set up a trap to kill me? Mr. Si's scheming is too deep."
Si Yiluo knew that he had misunderstood, but the fact that he could stand here properly proved that the mechanisms arranged by Lin Qiu had no effect on him, and her worries just now were really unfounded.
She wasn't sure that he would come, and she didn't expect that he would misunderstand. But it seemed good to let him misunderstand... help her cut off the edge, and the two of them will focus on being rivals from now on!
While she was thinking wildly in her mind, Wei Heyan suddenly approached her, put one hand around her waist, led her back to the hiding place behind Shiquan, and gave her a hiss.
Someone is coming!
Si Yiluo reached forward with his upper body, but was pulled back by his hand on his waist and carried into his arms.
She struggled to push his hand away, but he wrapped it around her again.
She was furious. This guy just wrongfully accused her of setting a trap to kill him. Why was he trying to tease her now? What on earth was he going to do?
"The agency has been destroyed! Si Yiluo has already arrived!"
The visitors made frightened sounds. Their confidence came from these institutions, and the poison on the institutions that sealed the throat with blood. As long as it touches the skin, the poison will slowly spread without the need for wounds.
But what if none of this is of use to her... what will be the fate waiting for them?
Lin Qiu refused to give up and ordered people to light torches. When he saw the completely destroyed mechanism, the torches fell to the ground and the withered grass caught fire. From the firelight, he saw the pale faces of several people.
Counting the time, it was time for Xiang Yun to bring his people over.
Si Yiluo pushed Wei Heyan away, walked out of the darkness, and looked at them condescendingly.
"Lin Qiu, stop struggling."
Lin Qiu smiled ferociously and raised his crossbow to point it at her.
"Si Yiluo, I, Lin Qiu, can't kill you because I don't have the ability. It has nothing to do with other people. As long as you can let them live, you can take my life, Lin Qiu!"
He is quite loyal... The remaining dozen people on the other side said in unison: "Boss! No!"
"Boss, we brothers have agreed to live and die together! Besides, she is only one person, so we may not lose! There is no one else here, so as long as we kill her, even if it costs our lives, it will be worth it!"
Si Yiluo raised his eyebrows, a group of grown men behaved in an awkward manner!
She drew her knife and jumped down from the height, landing in front of Lin Qiu.
"Boss!"
Several people quickly surrounded her.
The fire illuminated the dark night. Xiang Yun and Song Yehe entered the forest and led their people to follow the fire. When they heard the sound of fighting in the distance, they quickened their pace.
Under the firelight, Si Yiluo's majestic long knife hit Lin Qiu's hand crossbow, cutting his crossbow in half, and then stuck his foot in his chest.
He wanted to commit suicide by taking poison, but Xiang Yun who rushed over removed his chin, twisted his arms behind his back, and tied them into a big rice dumpling.
The others were not much better. Si Yiluo cut off the ends of his hair that were half-struck by the fire and threw them on the ground. He commanded: "Put out the fire first, and then check the traps at the scene."
It had rained continuously for seven or eight days, and all that burned were dead grass, so the fire was easily controlled.
Everything became calm again, and Wei Heyan came out of the darkness.
Seeing him, Song Yehe's expression was a little calmer than Miao Cong's at first, but only a little.
It was late at night, and the commander of his family didn't even allow his personal bodyguard to follow him, but he was in the dense forest with Governor Wei... Well, maybe it was official business.
I heard that the people he tied up were members of the Yulin Guards. Only the Jinyi Guards handled the case, and the officials would not be convinced.
But... the reputation of the governor of the East and West Factory is not much better than theirs! Will outsiders think that their Jinyiwei and Wei Heyan are colluding and unjustly accusing others?
In just two breaths, his mind had already turned around a thousand times. Maybe the commander of his family was afraid of being targeted by the officials, so he deliberately pulled things into trouble... Anyway, he was a small person, so he just had to do his job well.
Just pretend you haven't seen the others.
Song Yehe is relatively calm in his work, which is why Si Yiluo brought him to Qiuyou.
Si Yiluo adjusted his breathing, clasped his fists at Wei Heyan and said, "Thank you, Lord Governor, for your help tonight. I will take the prisoner back for interrogation and take my leave!"
Wei Heyan looked at her disobedient face, clicked his tongue, and followed them with his hands folded.
Xiang Yun protected Si Yiluo, deliberately blocking his sight, making him secretly annoyed, but not able to get angry.
After all, his relationship with Si Yiluo was shady... He pinched his lips with his fingers, hissing, the wound still hurt!
