At this time they were already in a state of alert.

When he noticed the arrows coming at him, he quickly dodged two of them.

Having seen the arrow's extraordinary power, they did not dare to confront it head-on.

Noticing the direction from which the arrow came, the leading man drew the sword from his waist and flew towards her at lightning speed.

However, when I got closer, I found that there was no one there.

After searching for a long time, not only did they not find the person, but there was not even any trace of the mechanism that shot the arrows.

The arrow seemed to appear out of thin air.

Could it be that he was possessed by an evil spirit? Thinking of this, he felt his scalp tingling. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, suddenly, another arrow shot at him.

He hurriedly swung his sword, and with a "ding" sound, the black arrow hit his sword. The huge thrust knocked him back a few steps.

He finally managed to steady himself and prepared to go forward to check again, but he still couldn't see a single person there.

At this moment he was really panicked. Could it be that he encountered a ghost in broad daylight?

He looked around and the more he looked, the more he felt that this place was too dead.

Shang Ruoyi was in the space at this time, looking at his panicked expression, she couldn't help but laugh secretly, "Coward, are you scared of this little bit?"

"Boss."

The people behind him saw his pale face and couldn't help asking, "Boss, what's wrong with you?"

"There's something strange in this forest! Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several arrows were fired at once. Seeing this, the people who had been on alert waved their swords, trying to knock down the arrows. However, the swords in their hands broke into two pieces after colliding with the arrows.

hiss······

How could this be?

What on earth is this made of? It's even harder than a sword?

It was really frustrating to come here this time. Not only did I lose several brothers before I even got close to the He Mansion, but now even my weapons are broken.

What else to fight?

The most terrifying thing is that their opponents never showed up from beginning to end, or it should be said that they didn’t even know who their opponents were.

Shang Ruoyi felt slightly relieved when she saw that they wanted to leave.

Although there are guards in the courtyard now, there are more women and children. If a real fight happens, I’m afraid they will be overwhelmed.

He Jinghe, who was waiting in the room at this time, was extremely anxious and kept looking outside. What time was it? Why hadn't they rushed in yet?

He looked out through the crack in the door and saw the guards walking around in the yard. He suddenly had an idea and ran out, holding his stomach: "Ouch! My stomach!"

"What's wrong?" A guard stepped forward and asked coldly, "Where are you going?"

He Jinghe heard this and said angrily, "You bold slave, I have a stomachache. Where do you think I should go? Of course I should go to the toilet. Can I go to your house?"

Seeing that he was holding his stomach and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, he didn't seem to be faking it, so he led him to the toilet.

As soon as he reached the toilet door, he took out a pipe, held up one end and blew gently. A puff of white smoke appeared, and the guard walking in front of him fell to the ground instantly.

Seeing that there was no one around, He Jinghe dragged him aside, took off his clothes and put them on himself.

After finishing everything, he lowered his head and walked towards Shang Ruoyi's yard.

He knew early on that Shang Ruoyi would go into the dense forest at this time every day, but he was not quite sure what she did specifically.

When they arrived at the courtyard, Shaoyao and the other two were all there. He Jinghe walked in with his head lowered: "Young Madam wants you to go to the greenhouse."

Shaoyao and the others were stunned when they heard this. Shouldn't the young lady be teaching kung fu in the dense forest at this time? Why was she in the greenhouse?

"Did the lady say what happened?"

He Jinghe shook his head: "The young lady just told you to go over quickly."

Yingxue and Xunmei came forward and said softly, "Sister Shaoyao, since the young lady is calling us, let's go over there quickly!"

Shaoyao put down the work in her hands, followed the two of them, and accidentally saw the back of He Jinghe's hand.

There are many pinholes on it.

She frowned slightly and was about to ask him to lift his head when she heard Yingxue say, "Let's go! Maybe someone from Tianxiangju is here again. The young lady said a few days ago that there are new fruits to sell."

When Shaoyao heard this, the idea that had just sprouted in her mind disappeared instantly, and she quickly followed.

Seeing them walking away, He Jinghe flashed into the room.

Shang Ruoyi's room was very simple, with a bed, two low couches, a table, a dressing table, and some decorations.

He rummaged around the room for a long time, but found nothing useful except some jewelry in the box on the dressing table.

"Where is it?" He put some gold, silver and jade articles into his arms, and kept searching with his hands: "Could it be on He Jingheng?" At this time, he found a box under the bed. The box was made of Dalbergia odorifera, and this box alone was worth a thousand gold.

This must be it.

He Jinghe slowly opened the box, and inside was a ring that was completely emerald green. If Shang Ruoyi saw it, she would find that this ring was the one that He Jingheng asked her to pawn.

"Finally found it." He put the box in his arms and walked towards the gate with his head lowered.

Shaoyao followed Yingxue and the others, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. The figure of that person looked familiar. Who could he be?

At this moment, the hand with only a pinhole flashed before her eyes again.

Oh no! It's He Jinghe!

She had been to He Jinghe's yard with the young lady that day, and his hands were like this today.

"I've fallen into a trap!" She turned around and ran back quickly: "Yingxue Xunmei, hurry! Go back quickly! That man is not a servant in the mansion at all, but He Jinghe!"

Upon hearing this, the two sisters frowned and quickly ran towards the mansion.

After all, the two of them had martial arts skills and were quite fast on their feet, but even so, when they returned, the house was empty. He Jinghe was nowhere to be found, and all the gold and silver jewelry in the jewelry box on the dressing table had disappeared.

"We have to go and inform the young lady." Shaoyao said in a deep voice: "I will go find the young lady, you go and inform the servants to find He Jinghe."

"it is good."

He Jinghe had already left the He Mansion without any obstruction at this time, so smoothly that even he himself found it hard to believe.

He was just about to walk into the dense forest when he suddenly stopped. He took out the ring, put it in the innermost cloth bag and tied it up. Seeing that there was no one around, he stuffed it into an extremely hidden crevice in the stone and then stepped into the dense forest.

He Yunyi and Ah Cheng had been waiting for Shang Ruoyi when they saw a man in servant's clothes walking towards the dense forest. She was about to call him when Ah Cheng made a "hush" gesture to her and whispered, "That man is not a servant in the mansion, but He Jinghe."

He Jinghe?

Why did he escape?

"We can't let him get away. Let's catch up."
