Time flies, and it's time for Stone Wolf's birthday.
The entire hilltop was decorated with festive cheer, partly because Stone Wolf suddenly announced that he would marry Ah Li on his birthday.
Ahri was also taken to Shilang's room, which was decorated as a wedding chamber, but the tiger head hanging on the wall was not taken down.
Stone Wolf even sent people down the mountain to capture two old women to dress up Ah Li.
However, when Ah Li saw the wedding dress placed on the plate, she felt terrible.
Apart from the outer layer being relatively thick, the inner layer is basically just thin gauze.
"Girl, change into these," the two old women said with worried expressions.
They also wanted to live, but they felt bad about pushing such a girl into the fire.
Ahri unfolded her red wedding dress and said, "Please take care of these things inside. I'll just wear this thick one on the outside."
Ahri won't just sit idly by and wait to die; she has important things to do.
After hearing what Ah Li said, the two old women looked at each other and then helped Ah Li put away the pieces of gauze.
Ahri put on her red wedding dress, but wore her own clothes underneath.
When Shi Lang arrived with his men, the two old women quickly covered Ah Li's head with a red cloth.
Stone Wolf's loud laughter could be heard from afar. As soon as he entered, he looked at the plates on the table, where the clothes on them were gone.
Then he lifted the red veil, saw that it was Ah Li, and then put the red veil down again.
"Let's go! Let's get married!"
After shouting those words, Stone Wolf hugged Ahri.
Ahri didn't struggle; instead, she held onto her own hands.
However, at this moment, Ahri smelled a strange fragrance, which was both sweet and bitter.
Stone Wolf's lips twitched a few times, then his smile widened, a cruel grin spreading across his face. His eyes gleamed with a fierce light, seemingly filled with greed and desire for his prey.
However, before Stone Wolf could even reach the main hall with Ahri in his arms, the entire mountain seemed to suddenly tremble.
"Boss, something terrible has happened! They've attacked!"
A bandit ran over and immediately fell to his knees in front of the stone wolf.
"Which bastard is ruining my plans at this time? Brothers, let's go see who has the guts to come looking for trouble today!"
Stone Wolf shouted and put Ah Li down. He turned around, took his large machete, and led all the bandits to the mountain gate.
At this moment, Ah Li felt something was wrong with her. She touched her slightly hot face and realized that she might have been drugged.
She quickly found a calming pill in the system space, took it out without hesitation, and put it in her mouth.
Then she lifted the red veil and found that the place, which had been bustling just moments before, was now deserted and empty.
Some only have a table full of good wine and food, and a whole lamb being roasted in the middle.
Ahri immediately raised her hand to untie the somewhat troublesome red wedding dress, and then prepared to put some poison into the wine.
However, before they could decide which poison to use, someone led a group of people in and broke in.
Ah Li wasn't flustered at all; she even turned around to look at the person.
Having just survived a fierce battle, Yan Siming finally found the person.
He was wearing black armor, his face was covered in blood, and his eyes were bloodshot.
However, when he saw Ah Li, his murderous aura vanished, and he seemed to soften as he walked towards Ah Li.
"Yan Siming?"
Ahri looked at the newcomer in surprise.
Yan Siming pulled the person into his arms and hugged him tightly, saying, "You scared me to death."
"I'm fine, but why are you here?"
Ah Li raised her hand and gently patted Yan Siming's back; he was holding her too tightly.
Yan Siming did not answer Ali, but instead held her in his arms for a long time without saying a word.
After waiting for a while, Yan Siming finally released Ah Li and said, "Let's go down the mountain first."
"good."
Ah Li's hand was held tightly by Yan Siming, and she could feel the heat and sweat in Yan Siming's palm.
The soldiers who had gone up the mountain with Yan Siming remained silent, neither staring at Ah Li nor discussing anything.
The surroundings were very quiet. The only sound was the clanging of Yan Siming's armor as he walked.
Ah Li looked at the blood all over the ground, but saw no bodies. She asked, "Where are the bandits?"
"Just a bunch of rabble, they're dead," Yan Siming snorted.
He had thought that the bandits' location should be impregnable, but unexpectedly, in the face of absolute force, they were like a swarm of headless flies, collapsing at the slightest touch.
He mobilized only fifty elite troops this time, but in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he wiped out the entire bandit gang.
When they arrived at the mountain gate, Yan Siming helped Ah Li onto a warhorse, and he followed suit and mounted the horse.
Ah Li sighed inwardly with some regret, wishing she hadn't used the antidote.
Yan Siming raised his hand and shook it. "Let's call it a day!"
The fifty elite soldiers also mounted their warhorses, and the group descended the mountain in a grand procession.
Yan Siming shielded Ali in front of him. As Ali descended the mountain, she saw Grandpa Wang waiting at the foot of the mountain, with a group of government officials standing beside him.
The officer in charge of the troops, Yan Siming, stopped his warhorse and stepped forward with his fists clasped, saying, "We owe a great debt to the general this time."
Yan Siming said coldly, "Go back up the mountain, take stock of the valuables, and distribute them to the nearby villagers."
Ah Li struggled to get down, but Yan Siming patted her and said, "Don't go down."
"I want to have a talk with Grandpa Wang."
