Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 596 Granary

The night was long and dark, and they rode their horses at full speed.

Qinggu and the others didn't understand why Si He wanted to go with them, but they didn't ask too much, and she didn't need to do anything about the rescue.

They hurried along the way, taking shortcuts. After daybreak, they found a place to rest, a roadside inn.

However, this was only a brief rest, and Qing Gu and the others continued on their hurried journey. Although they were tired after traveling all night, the matter was urgent and could not be delayed. They were already used to it.

Si He stayed in the inn first and set off later because the sun had risen and was shining brightly. It was not suitable for her to hurry on, so they had to go their separate ways.

However, she was accompanied by a team of guards, and she was now dressed as a man, traveling in a low-key manner and not attracting attention. Besides, Qing Gu and the others knew that she was very skilled, so they were not too worried.

Si He stood by the window of the guest room, watching Qing Gu and others go away, and looking at the increasingly dazzling sunlight, so she simply rested during the day and set off again in the evening. Besides, the distance was not far now, so it would be convenient to do things at night.

She closed the window and went back to bed to rest.

However, it was quite noisy outside that day, with people arguing or fighting from time to time, and it was very unpeaceful.

She rested for a day and came out of the guest room in the evening when the sun had set.

When she walked out of the inn, a group of people came outside and wanted to check into the inn.

This team was escorting several carts full of luggage, and the first few carriages were quite luxurious, obviously belonging to families with extraordinary backgrounds. However, their guards looked a bit embarrassed, and many of them had injuries on their bodies, obviously they encountered a lot of trouble on the road.

Si He glanced at them indifferently and happened to see people getting off the carriage. There were women and children, all dressed in gorgeous clothes. It was obvious at a glance that they were from a wealthy family.

However, six or seven of them squeezed into one carriage, making it very full, while the two carriages at the back were filled with men, also dressed in gorgeous clothes, but all of them looked very nervous, and I don't know if they were frightened on the road.

This large group of people looked like they were fleeing from disaster.

However, in the eyes of some people, such an outfit does make one a fat sheep, so it is not surprising that one would encounter trouble.

So when they saw Si He and the others, they all tensed up and were very alert. After all, Si He was dressed as a man, and the guards who accompanied him were also dressed in simple casual clothes and armed with swords. They had a cold and fierce aura, and one could tell at a glance that they were not to be trifled with.

Si He just glanced at him lightly, then looked away. After walking to the horse, he jumped on it and rode away with the guards.

Seeing this, they breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the sun had just set and the light had not yet dimmed, which was a good time for Si He and others to hurry on their journey.

As Si He galloped on his horse, he recalled the past in confusion. He should have never seen that group of people before, but they seemed a little familiar to him.

She thought about it for a while, but after having no impression, she put the thought aside and continued on her way seriously.

However, not long after walking, they saw a group of people passing by at the fork in the road ahead.

When Si He and others saw it from afar, they stopped their horses in time and looked at it from afar.

By now the sky was gradually darkening, but the identities of these people and horses could still be clearly seen.

They were the Yue army, and there were clear markings on their clothes. There was a military flag at the front of the team, and the formation was quite large. They were pulling many empty carts carrying goods and were hurrying on their way.

This group of people went to another road and did not come towards Si He. In just a moment, their figures disappeared into the night.

Si He looked in that direction thoughtfully, her eyes slightly darker.

We are now close to Changping City. The troops just now were most likely the men of Wang Yue Nantian of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the possibility of them being the men of other princes is not very high.

She thought for a moment and then asked the accompanying guard, "Besides the garrison camp, are there any other important places over there?"

She didn't know the terrain here very well. She only knew that this place was under the jurisdiction of Yue Nantian and was not the residence of any young master.

The guard heard the question and replied, "There is a Changping granary about thirty miles away."

Si He raised her brows slightly when she heard this. She thought for a while, and after a while, she said, "Let's take a detour to the granary."

Given the current situation, it is only a matter of time before Yue Fuli falls out with the master's family. Since she has come here, she will not return empty-handed.

She had originally planned to visit the Yue family's old house, but now it seems that this granary is more suitable.

As for rescuing Yue Fuqi, we have people from the Dark Guard Camp, and Chen Sangsang’s matter can be put aside for now. This little time is not a big deal.

Upon hearing this, the guards' expressions became complicated and they felt a bit worried, fearing that she would cause trouble. Although they had been following her for some time and had some understanding of her behavior, every time she wanted to do something, it was quite scary and often exceeded their expectations.

However, thinking about how she dealt with the enemy that night, she couldn't help but feel at ease.

They could only obey orders and take her on a detour to the granary.

Thirty miles is not far, especially when riding a horse. However, because we had to take a detour and could not alert the soldiers guarding the granary, it took some time.

Si He even dismounted from a long distance and leaped across the forest, stepping on branches.

The horses were tied in a small woods, and only two people were left to guard them. The other guards followed Si He to the high mountain outside the granary.

At this moment, the sky had completely darkened and the night was as black as ink.

The moon shuttles through the clouds. When the moonlight shines, it adds a touch of silver light to the dark night, so that some things can be seen clearly, but when it is blocked by clouds, it falls into darkness.

In order not to alert the soldiers in the granary, Si He and others took a detour to the forest behind and quietly approached the granary.

This granary is one of the three major granaries in Jizhou. It is built on a steep mountain and is heavily guarded.

On the way up the mountain, Si He and others knocked down many soldiers one after another quietly.

The accompanying guards were in even more complicated moods now, probably guessing what she might do.

After a while, Si He and his group stood on a steep rock, looking at the granary in the distance. It was said that there were about 50,000 dan of grain here (one dan is 60 jin).

A stone wall was built around the granary, and a soldier was stationed every fifty steps to keep a close watch.

The houses in the granary are also built very solidly. If someone wants to launch a sneak attack, it will be very difficult because the soldiers will provide support quickly.

Of course, this is difficult for others, but for Si He, it is not a problem.

When she knocked down the soldier guarding the mountain, she took off a set of clothes and put on one of the soldier's clothes. In this dark night, as long as no one looked closely at her, she could still get away with it.

Of course, she didn't expect not to be discovered, and she would have her own ways to deal with it when the time came.

She asked the guards to stay and went to the granary alone. In a blink of an eye, she was immersed in darkness.
