Chapter 439 Visiting Fuhe Hall at Night



Chapter 439 Visiting Fuhe Hall at Night

When the people from the second and third houses heard this, they all looked unhappy, so they began to move their money out and temporarily deposit it in the money house.

After all, the Guo family has been in trouble recently, and they are afraid that their money will be lost again. It is better to deposit it in a bank than in the Guo family.

The actions of the second and third houses attracted the attention of the eldest house. After some thought, Mrs. Guo also deposited all her valuables and silver in the money house. After all, she was really wronged about the loss of the public treasury silver and money, and she had no way to defend herself. At this time, the situation of the Guo family was really bad, and she did not dare to leave the silver and money in the Guo family.

The Guo family's protective measures are now much more rigorous than before. Not only are there several wizards staying temporarily, but a lot of exorcism items have been added to strengthen protection. In addition, a lot of people have been transferred from various farms to patrol day and night.

Although the money in the public treasury was missing, the Guo family was the richest family in Zhongzhou after all, with many businesses under their names. They could withdraw some money from the merchant bank in advance to maintain the Guo family's expenses.

Looking at these series of actions, Si He could only postpone his original plan temporarily. After all, everyone was watching closely now, and if he acted rashly, people would easily notice something.

Moreover, now that her wedding date is approaching, she is being watched more closely.

Two days later, she finally got the chance she had been waiting for.

The weather was very bad that day. The sky was dark during the day and it was stormy at night.

The howling wind made the trees in the yard rustle, and the lanterns under the eaves kept shaking, the light flickering, as if the lights inside would go out at any time.

The rain was like a waterfall, surging and pouring down with an unstoppable force, hitting the eaves hard, splashing water, and then quickly gathered into a stream, rushing down along the gaps between the tiles, forming curtains of water and falling to the ground.

The whole world was shrouded in darkness, with only a few scattered lanterns adding a little light.

On a rainy night like this, the servants all hid in the house, and the patrolling guards retreated to the corridor.

Si He changed her clothes, tied her hair up, and wrapped her entire head tightly with a cloth, leaving only her forehead and eyes exposed. Her shoes were also wrapped with a layer of cloth to prevent footprints from leaving behind.

Gao You and Gao Zi saw this and couldn't help but whispered, "Miss, what are you going to do? Why don't you tell us to go."

"Yes, miss."

Although they didn't know what she was going to do next, the two of them were now serving her, so naturally they had to share the work with her.

Seeing the complicated expressions on their faces, Si He raised the corners of her lips and said, "No need, I'll be back soon."

She said the same thing last time.

But seeing Si He's insistence, the two of them had no choice but to say, "Okay, Miss, be careful."

After packing up and blowing out the lights in the house, Si He jumped out of the side window and disappeared in the dark rainy night in a blink of an eye.

She leaped onto the roof and walked towards dark places, trying her best to avoid corridors and houses illuminated by lanterns, and went to Fuhetang quietly and silently.

It was raining heavily, and soon her whole body was soaked, but she didn't care at all. She looked alert and focused on the movements around her.

In the dark night, she was agile, like a leopard about to hunt, and most of the time she lay down to avoid being discovered by the guards around her, slowly approaching the main house of Fuhetang.

Along the way, she carefully extinguished the lanterns around her, trying her best to disguise them as being blown out. Now that it was a rainy night and the wind was strong, extinguishing some lights did not attract attention.

She moved forward cautiously all the way. In order to avoid the patrolling guards, it took her some time to get close to the window behind the main house of Fuhe Hall.

She stood in the dark corner and listened carefully to the movements in the house before carefully prying open the window to observe the situation inside.

At this time, the room was silent, with only a few candles burning and the light was dim. There were two maids guarding the door, but they were lazily sitting against the wall and dozing off.

There were a lot of talismans and things to ward off evil spirits pasted in the room, and the air was filled with a faint scent of incense.

She took out two silver needles dipped in medicine and shot them quickly and accurately at the two maids.

In the blink of an eye, two needles pierced their necks, and before they woke up, they fell asleep.

Si He looked at it quietly for a while. After a while, she reached out and twisted her sleeves and hem to minimize the water stains, and then she carefully crawled in through the window.

After entering the house, she cautiously lowered her footsteps, looked around, and slowly walked towards the bedroom.

In this room, besides the two maids, there is another person!

Because as she approached the bedroom, she heard a breathing sound.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, took out another silver needle as she walked, and stared vigilantly in the direction of the breathing sound.

At the door of the bedroom, there was a man sitting, seemingly taking a nap with his eyes closed. After all, it was already late at night.

This is a mage.

Perhaps it was because the wind and rain outside were too loud and her footsteps were very light, or perhaps the wizard was too unguarded. He was leaning back in a chair, holding a talisman sword in his hand, but he did not notice her coming.

When she got closer, she quickly shot the needle in her hand at him.

"Whoosh!"

The long needle pierced the back of the man's neck.

At this moment, he was suddenly startled and opened his eyes vigilantly, but it was too late. The needle had medicinal properties, and after it pierced his skin, his head suddenly became a little dizzy. At the same time, it also pierced an acupuncture point, making it difficult for him to move.

He had his back to the person who was attacking him, so he couldn't see what was happening behind him and didn't know who was attacking him.

He was guarding here mainly to guard against the evil spirit that possessed the old lady in the house. How could he have thought that someone would come to attack him?

After a while, he slowly closed his heavy eyelids and fell asleep.

Seeing that his head tilted and he was completely asleep, Si He slowly approached him, while also looking at the situation in the bedroom.

The bedroom was filled with the smell of incense to dispel evil spirits, and many talismans were pasted on the bed frame, arranged in an orderly manner.

When the wind blew in, the talisman paper fluttered gently, and the atmosphere was eerie.

Even though she was standing at a distance, she could still faintly feel the power of the talisman.

Judging from the runes drawn on these talisman papers, the magician who made them must have great skills.

She looked down and saw that the 'old lady' lying on the bed had opened her eyes and was struggling to turn her head to look at her.

It had only been a while since I last saw the old lady, and she looked thinner, with dark circles under her eyes, and she looked very haggard.

This remnant soul has not been driven out yet, but this situation is not pleasant.

At this time, the "old lady" not only had several talisman papers stuck on her body, but also had a small bell tied on each wrist to ward off evil spirits. The talisman power on the bell was torturing her every moment. If this continued, it would probably be worn away into ashes in the near future.
