After eating and drinking their fill, Qi Yunxiao and Shen Qingyu went to bed early.
The clerk in the front yard pretended to sweep the dust off the window, then placed the small broom outside the window.
As night deepened, a faint smoke drifted toward the backyard. The Dragon Guards immediately held their breath and signaled to their backs as soon as they smelled something amiss.
Before long, a group of men in black carrying knives jumped up from the walls of the courtyard surrounding the post station.
The two sides immediately engaged in battle.
With swift movements and sharp strikes, the sounds of weapons clashing rang out in rapid succession, interspersed with occasional screams of agony.

Those who were captured alive also bit open the poison sacs in their mouths and died from poisoning.

Chen San was so moved that his heart warmed, and he almost burst into tears. He clasped his hands in a fist and said firmly, "Thank you, sir. I assure you: the goods will live as long as I live! If the goods perish, I will perish!"
Qi Yunxiao: "..."
