Chapter 597: Burning the Granary

The guards watched her leaving and couldn't help but feel worried, but they could only wait there helplessly.

Si He shuttled through the dark night and quietly approached the stone wall outside the granary. She did not rush in, but waited until the moon entered the clouds and the night became darker. Then she took out several silver needles from her ring and shot them towards the guarding soldiers.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The sound of the silver needles was very subtle, almost inaudible. In the blink of an eye, they pierced into an acupuncture point on the back of their heads, and they became unable to move.

After Si He quietly entered the granary position, he walked along the darker corners towards the house where the grain was stored. When he encountered a patrol team, he took the opportunity to hide.

But because the security here was too tight and there were many lanterns nearby to illuminate the night, she could not get close to the house at all. She could only hide in a dark corner and wait.

The corner where she hid was also specially chosen. In addition to the dim light, it was also a bit smelly because there was a toilet not far away, which was reserved for soldiers.

About a quarter of an hour later, I finally got a chance.

A captain-like man came over alone. Although he was holding a lantern in his hand, he was not very alert. Perhaps because this place had been too peaceful for a long time, he did not notice Si He in the dark corner.

Si He watched him walk towards the toilet and did not rush to take action.

There was silence all around, with only the low chirping of insects.

After he closed the toilet door, Si He walked outside the toilet and waited for people to come out.

Smelling the unpleasant smell here, Si He frowned and subconsciously held her breath. After a while, the people inside slowly came out.

However, when he saw someone outside the door, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and then he became alert, but he hadn't made any move yet. When he met Si He's eyes, he stood there, as if he had lost his soul, with a dull look in his eyes.

She said, "Take me to the granary where the security is not so strong."

"Yes." The captain responded woodenly, then led her forward.

Si He lowered her head slightly and followed behind him, trying her best to use his figure to shield herself.

With him walking in front to lead the way, Si He approached the granary openly. Although some soldiers looked at him with confusion along the way, they were walking in a dark place and did not carry lanterns, so their vision was not very clear. Most importantly, due to the man's identity, the ordinary soldiers did not dare to say much.

After arriving at the granary, Si He did not plan to go through the main gate. After all, the main gate was too heavily guarded and there was no key. She planned to enter the granary from the side.

There were a few small windows on the side, barely enough for people to get in, but the windows were very high and closed, and there were soldiers guarding the area.

After the two of them walked to the side, Si He asked the man to move the soldiers around. She then leaped to the window, quickly pried it open, and crawled in, while the man continued to guard outside.

The granary was pitch black, without a single ray of light, and only a faint moonlight filtered in through the pried-open window.

However, for her, it makes no difference whether there is light or not.

As soon as you come in, you are hit by the smell of dry grains, mixed with the woody pine scent and the insect-repellent mugwort.

This granary is quite large, three meters high, supported by many thick pillars inside, with ventilation windows on the top, and the ground is paved with moisture-proof lime mixed soil.

Everywhere you look, there are neatly arranged piles of grain, each pile is taller than a person. There are vermilion official seals on the sacks, which record the time of storage and the type of grain, including corn, beans, and rice.

Seeing so much food, Si He curled her lips in satisfaction, and then without wasting any time, she quickly used her ring to collect all the food here.

In a short while, she had collected all the food here, leaving nothing behind.

After a rough estimate, I estimated that there are about 10,000 stones (600,000 kilograms), which is almost filling up the ring space!

The main reason is that there are already a lot of gold, silver and jewelry in the ring, and the space capacity is limited.

It’s not enough!

Food really takes up space!

She really needs to move the things in the ring space to a safe place next time, otherwise she won’t be able to use the ring in the future.

Si He was helpless and could only return the same way. As he left, he set fire to the wood in the house.

After all, the granary is empty, so empty that it is unbelievable. It would be better to burn the house down to cover it up a little.

Although clues can still be seen afterwards, at least after it is spread outside, there will be different explanations and it will not be easily associated with the matter of the treasure space.

After all, she couldn't guarantee that no one else in this world would know about the ring.

After leaving the granary, under the cover of the captain, she successfully walked to the dark corner of the wall. However, before she could climb over the wall and leave, a patrol team came over.

They soon discovered something strange here and immediately headed over here.

Seeing this, Si He's eyes narrowed, and the next moment, the captain under her control immediately went crazy and drew his sword to slash at the patrol team!

The group was horrified and retreated in a hurry, shouting, "Captain Li! What are you doing?"

But Captain Li ignored them and waved his knife at them!

"Quick! Stop him!"

They also drew their swords to resist Captain Li's attack.

The scene was too chaotic, so Si He quickly climbed over the wall and escaped. Those people only saw a blurry figure leaping out from the dark corner and did not see her face at all.

"Someone escaped!"

Someone shouted in shock, but the figure flashed past and disappeared outside the wall.

At this time, Captain Li's attack was too fierce, and the others had no choice but to kill him by mistake.

Seeing the dead and the escaped, their faces turned extremely ugly, but they did not slow down and quickly sent half of their people to track them. In addition, people near the granary also rushed over after hearing the noise.

For a moment, the entire granary position was alarmed, because thick smoke billowed out of the granary and a raging fire broke out!

On the other side, after Si He came out of the granary, he looked back and saw that the captain was indeed dead. Then he leaped towards the dark forest silently.

Those who climbed over the wall saw a silent and dark forest and didn't know where to chase!

There were soldiers guarding outside the forest, but now there was no movement at all. Obviously something had happened!

On the distant cliff, a group of guards saw from afar that everyone in the granary was alarmed and the lights were on.

In particular, one of the granaries caught fire, which was very dazzling in the dark night, and they suddenly became a little anxious.

However, they soon heard a faint sound of wind coming from the woods not far away. They turned around and saw Si He flying towards them quickly. Seeing that she was safe and sound, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go." She walked closer and said softly.

"Yes." The guard responded and quickly evacuated with her.
