The night wind blew gently, bringing a bit of coolness. Shu Zhihan and Lu He stood up together and prepared to return to the general's mansion.
Under the moonlight, their figures reflected on the bluestone path looked particularly elegant. The surroundings were quiet, with only the chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves adding a bit of tranquility to the night.
Walking through a small forest, Lu He said softly: "Zhihan, how on earth did you get injured?"
Shu Zhihan smiled slightly, said nothing, and just held Lu He's hand tightly. The two continued to move forward, and the lights of the General's Mansion were already flickering in front of them.
Lu He thought she didn't want to say anything, but he heard her say: "Actually, I don't know very well. We were sitting by the pond at that time, and a strange man appeared out of nowhere. He didn't look like an ordinary thief. , it looks like the purpose is to kill us."
Shu Zhihan couldn't help but tremble when she thought of the man's eyes.
That look was cold and cruel, as if it were a demon coming out of the abyss of hell, without a trace of emotion.
The man appeared suddenly and disappeared suddenly, as if everything was a dream.
However, that feeling of panic was deeply engraved in her heart. She knew that this was no ordinary bandit, but someone who wanted to take their lives.
Or rather, he wanted to take his own life.
Shu Zhihan immediately became nervous when she thought of this possibility.
She grabbed Lu He's hand tightly and said eagerly: "We have to go back home quickly. We must not let anything happen."
Lu He felt Shu Zhihan's nervousness and became nervous as well. She looked at Shu Zhihan's anxious eyes, nodded, and the two of them quickened their pace.
The night wind blew gently, and their clothes were fluttering in the wind.
The moonlight shines on the bluestone path, stretching the silhouettes of the two people. The surroundings were still quiet, except for the sound of their footsteps and breathing.
After walking through the grove and passing through a bamboo forest, the lights of the General's Mansion were already flickering before my eyes.
Shu Zhihan and Lu He finally breathed a sigh of relief. They smiled at each other and walked into the general's mansion hand in hand.
As soon as they walked in, they saw Luo Jinyu and Meng Haowen planning to go out.
When the two saw Shu Zhihan and Lu He returning safely, they showed relieved expressions on their faces.
Luo Jinyu stepped forward and asked with concern: "Zhihan, are you okay? I heard people say that you went out, and I'm worried to death."
Meng Haowen also hurried over, looked at them and said, "What's going on? Did you encounter any danger?"
Shu Zhihan smiled slightly, shook her head, and said, "We're fine, don't worry."
Lu He also nodded, indicating that they were indeed fine.
The four people gathered together, and the atmosphere was a bit solemn.
The moonlight shines in the courtyard, making everything look extra bright.
The night wind blew gently, bringing a bit of coolness.
Luo Jinyu did not let them all go back to rest immediately, but took Shu Zhihan and sat at the stone table aside.
He looked at her with concern and asked: "Zhihan, you haven't told me yet, what happened before?"
Shu Zhihan was silent for a moment, and then told them everything that happened at the pond.
Her voice trembled slightly, but her eyes were firm.
When she described the strange man's eyes, both Luo Jinyu and Meng Haowen's expressions became extremely serious.
The moonlight shone on the stone table, casting a faint white light. The shadows of the four people intertwined on the stone table, as if forming a silhouette painting.
The night wind blew gently, ruffling their hair and clothes. Everything seemed so quiet and tense.
As night fell, the general's mansion was quiet. Luo Jinyu and Meng Haowen came to the study, and there was a dull atmosphere in the air. The two of them sat on the wooden chairs in the study, facing the candlelight, and fell into deep thought.
Luo Jinyu frowned, and there was an indescribable worry in his eyes.
He picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip, only to find that it was cold.
He put down the tea cup, looked at Meng Haowen, and said in a hoarse voice: "This matter is not trivial. We need to come up with countermeasures as soon as possible."
Meng Haowen nodded, his eyes shining with determination. He said solemnly: "I understand, but this matter needs to be considered in the long term. We must first find out the identity of the strange man and the power behind him."
At this time, Meng Haowu came in from the door with a melancholy look on his face.
He looked at Luo Jinyu and Meng Haowen, sighed, and said, "I just got the news that there is an army outside the city that is slowly approaching."
Luo Jinyu and Meng Haowen looked at each other, knowing in their hearts that the appearance of this strange man might be related to this matter.
And they must find out the truth as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
Meng Haowu sat on a chair nearby, holding his head in his hands, lost in thought.
Luo Jinyu looked at him and couldn't help but feel worried. He knew Meng Haowu's personality well and knew that he was an extremely responsible person. He must be very anxious at this time. The three of them must work together to face this crisis.
He asked: "Meng Haowu, how is Mi Yue doing now?"
Meng Haowu raised his head, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and said, "She is fine, she has woken up."
Upon hearing the news, Luo Jinyu nodded slightly.
The three of them were sitting in the study, thinking about how to face the next thing.
Thinking about it now, this general's mansion is not safe. Luo Jinyu's eyes flashed with determination and he said, "We must strengthen the guards in the mansion to ensure the safety of Zhihan and others."
Meng Haowen nodded and added: "At the same time, we must also find out the identity of the strange man and the forces behind him as soon as possible."
Meng Haowu looked at the two of them, determination shining in his eyes. He stood up and said, "Okay, let's take action immediately. I will arrange guards to ensure the safety of the mansion."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the study.
Luo Jinyu and Meng Haowen looked at his back and knew in their hearts that this crisis had not passed, and they still needed to continue working hard.
As night fell, the candlelight in the study flickered, and their figures cast long shadows on the wall.
They know that the coming days will be more difficult, but they also know that only by working together can we survive this crisis.
Meng Haowen thought for a moment, looked at Luo Jinyu firmly, and said, "General, I think we should send my wife to the camp."
When Luo Jinyu heard this suggestion, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He naturally understands Meng Haowen's worries, but under the current situation, he doesn't want Zhihan to leave his side. However, he also knew that if something happened, the camp would be relatively safer.
He was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I will arrange for someone to send them there. But before that, we must ensure the safety of the mansion." Meng Haowen relaxed when he saw that Luo Jinyu agreed to his suggestion. One breath.
He knew that this decision was for Zhihan's safety. And they must ensure the safety of the mansion before they can safely send her away.
Meng Haowen nodded, turned around and walked out of the study.
He knew in his heart that the days to come would be more difficult, but they also knew that only by working together could they survive this crisis.
He walked through the courtyard, and the moonlight shone on the bluestone, giving it a faint luster.
He saw Lu He standing in the courtyard, the moonlight shining on her face, which made her look particularly soft.
He walked up to her and said softly: "Lu He, do you want to go to the camp with Zhihan?" Lu He raised his head, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
She didn't expect Meng Haowen to come to her, but then, she nodded slightly.
Meng Haowen looked at her and couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart. He took her hand and walked towards the room.
On the second day, at dawn, a carriage quietly drove out of the general's mansion and headed towards the camp.
In the carriage, Shu Zhihan and Lu He sat side by side, both of them looking a little pale.
They know this is to protect their safety.
The carriage bumped along the road, and the scenery on both sides moved backwards rapidly.
Shu Zhihan and Lu He were sitting in the carriage. Suddenly, the carriage stopped.
The two of them looked at each other with some doubts in their hearts. Shu Zhihan gently lifted the curtain and subconsciously stretched her head to look at the situation outside.
I saw a dense forest in front of me, and there seemed to be a figure moving in the forest.
Shu Zhihan couldn't help but think of this forest, as if it was where she first met Luo Jinyu.
But now, this forest appeared in front of her again, but it was full of danger and unknown.
She looked at the figures moving in the woods and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
The carriage stopped in front of the woods, and the shadow seemed to be approaching them. Shu Zhihan held Lu He's hand tightly, and the two leaned against each other, preparing to face the coming danger.
Shu Zhihan held Mi Yue on the other side and motioned her to calm down.
She took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.
She knew that in such a crisis, panic would only bring greater danger.
She looked carefully at the situation in the woods through the gap.
Those figures seemed to be approaching them, their steps were steady and powerful, and they seemed to know their whereabouts well.
Shu Zhihan couldn't help but panic, but she understood that at this moment, she had to stay calm.
She held Mi Yue's hand tightly and told her with her eyes: "It will be okay. We will definitely get through this difficulty."
Shu Zhihan thought of how Mi Yue was so frightened that she fainted when she saw the bad guys at that time, but now she actually stood in front of her when she met the bad guys.
This scene made Shu Zhihan feel a little moved.
She knew that Mi Yue was no longer the timid girl, but a person who bravely protected her.
She knew in her heart that no matter what difficulties they encountered, as long as they worked together, they would be able to overcome this crisis.
She held Miyue's hand tightly, her eyes shining with determination.
She took a deep breath and prepared herself for the upcoming challenge.
