Chapter 24 Killing at Night

The moonlight above the willow branches is a good time for a tryst and a good time for returning to the west.

The lonely alley was dark and cold, and through the moonlight you could see the fallen corpse and black blood stains.

The woman in black stood in the midst of the mess. Even though she was surrounded by people, she remained calm and composed. There was no fear or anxiety in her eyes. She was obviously used to this kind of scene.

"careful!"

Accompanied by a cry of surprise, a flying knife struck. The woman turned on one side of her body and took a step forward at the same time. Cold light flashed across her body.

puff--

The bright red color spurted out from her neck, and even though she avoided it very quickly, some of it still inevitably got on it.

Another person fell to the ground.

"Tsk." Yi Yan lowered his eyelids and took a look, shaking his head repeatedly, "It's really ugly to die with your eyes closed."

She shook her wrist to shake off the blood marks on the sword, and used her feet to avoid the light and shadow of the sword coming from the blanket. She held the soft sword in her hand and kept swinging, slashing, slashing, stabbing, and picking. Her body was flexible and moving, in the cold light and red rain.

Shuttle back and forth.

"No more delay, fight quickly!"

Yu Yan and Lian Shuang were fighting with their backs against each other. Lian Shuang replied yes and then spread out, killing each other even more fiercely.

Yu Yan led Lian Shuang and Lian Ying while fighting and leading them to a more remote place. The numbers of both sides were damaged.

"I just said that there is no need for me, Miss Duan can handle it herself."

"who!"

Yi Yan's eyes suddenly turned cold and stern. At this moment, the person was dead. She jumped up, stepped on the shoulders of the pursuer to get out of the encirclement, and the soft sword straightened with her extremely fast movement, pointing directly at the source of the sound.

Zhan Shuyun jumped down from the wall with his sword in hand, rushed into the crowd with his sword drawn, and passed by the embers.

"Almost everyone has been killed?"

As he spoke, Zhan Shuyun used the scabbard of his sword to hold the assassin who was flying forward, raised his foot and kicked the killer away from him, then turned his wrist and stabbed blindly in the back.

After Zhan Shuyun, Xu Hong also arrived with a few people and rushed in.

Zhan Shuyun was good at martial arts, and Xu Hong was not bad either. With the addition of Zhan Shuyun, the pressure on Yijin and his team was relieved. The fight went from slightly better to the last without any suspense, and ended with a crushing force.

War situation.

Finally they all died.

Ember wiped the soft sword, resisting the itchiness in his throat and said: "Clean up this place first to avoid more trouble."

After saying that, he threw away the handkerchief that was already stained with blood. The handkerchief fluttered down and landed on the face that was still staring at death, covering the bleak scene.

Even though it was polished and polished, Yi Yan still felt dirty, so he did not wrap the soft sword back around his waist, but carried it with one hand. After thinking about it, he decided to clean up the mess with his own people.

She first dragged a few corpses, then remembered something, gave Lian Ying a few instructions and left in the same direction.

Seeing this, Zhan Shuyun left Xu Hong and a few others to help clean up, while he followed the embers.

"What is Miss Duan going to do?"

"I'm not Miss Duan, I'm just Miss Duan's bodyguard. Don't yell."

After Xu Hong listened to this for a while, he couldn't hear what he said next because of the distance. However, he nodded secretly and felt more relaxed.

"I'm just telling you, how could it be Miss Duan?"

Miss Duan is extremely weak, how could she kill someone?

Zhan Shuyun followed Yu Yan and observed silently. To be honest, when he saw this figure for the first time, the first thing that flashed in his mind was the person who brought him out of the bandit village. After hearing the voice, he also confirmed two things.

People are indeed the same person.

However, both times they met, they were all dressed in black and masked, so who is this person?

Regarding this problem, the first thing he thought of was embers.

Ever since she first met Ember, there were many strange things about her.

If the discovery of evidence can be explained by Yi Yan's sharp mind, but what about those people who were brought up to give evidence? Where is Tao Ying's body? Where is Yan Honglian, whose chin was removed and tied up while in prison?

This is not something that ordinary boudoir ladies can do. Even if Yan Yan is not strictly a boudoir lady, these things are not something that ordinary people can do.

But according to Chang Wenyuan's diagnosis, that part of Yuan Yan's body was really weak and shouldn't be able to do this.

Looking at the sharp and neat figure in front of him, he doesn't look like he has been ill for a long time.

What a contradiction.

Obviously he was skeptical about the statement "Miss Duan's escort".

Zhan Shuyun's thoughts suddenly changed a thousand times, but in just a few breaths, the embers had already reached their destination.

"What are you doing here?"

In front of you is a dilapidated house that has been abandoned for a long time, with broken beams and thatched towers leaning out, and overgrown weeds densely overlapping and leaning against each other, covering up the protruding gravel bricks on the ground.

After hearing the words, Yi Yan paused and then returned: "Dismantle the trap."

As she said that, she walked forward and finally stood on the supporting wooden pillar. She turned back and reminded: "Please give me a break, be careful of getting hurt."

Zhan Shuyun followed the instructions and walked away, only to see the embers cutting the rope, and a nail board the size of a wooden row swept past. She climbed up and cut off the thick hemp rope on both sides.

With a small muffled sound, the overgrown weeds were pushed down, and pieces of grass clippings and large amounts of soil dust were stirred up.

Ember rolled over and landed next to Zhan Shuyun. He grabbed his wrist and stepped out of the threshold, quickly pressing it against the wall beside the door.

Zhan Shuyun heard several twisting sounds of metal colliding with each other in his ears, and then there was a dense sound of breaking through the air. He turned his head and glanced in front of the door. Several arrows were inserted diagonally into the ground, and their tail feathers swayed.

The force is enough to be fatal if it hits a person.

Zhan Shuyun withdrew his gaze and placed his eyes on the hand holding his wrist.

This action was the same as the last time she pulled him away from the bandit camp. The difference was that this time she was wearing gloves, so he couldn't feel the coolness on her hands.

"You were the one who saved me in the bandit camp last time, right?"

Zhan Shuyun made a statement without giving Yi Jin a chance to answer, "You said you are not Miss Duan, how can you prove it?"

Yi Yan looked over, his expression suddenly became speechless, "Why should I prove that I am not a lady, instead of you proving that I am a lady?"

Being retorted by the same words, Zhan Shuyun raised his eyebrows, but he was just as eloquent.

"You're right, but it doesn't matter who proves it. Your face is the best proof, isn't it?"

Yu Yan let go of her hand, covered her face with the black scarf and took a step away from Zhan Shuyun. She knew what Zhan Shuyun suspected, so she said: "I am the lady's guard, but a secret guard. I don't usually show up in front of others.

How can I not have any injuries on my body when I am a secret guard? Although I am a secret guard, I am also a woman. I always feel inferior if my face is injured and others see it."

His face was hurt.

Zhan Shuyun was speechless for a moment, then softly said "I'm sorry" and asked, "Are you here in Qin'an?"

"Yes, Tao Ying's case involves young lady, and I arrested everyone."

"Then in the bandit village..."

"The young lady was worried about your safety, so she ordered me to help."

"But what Miss Duan said at that time was that she accidentally picked me up outside."

"I am a secret guard and cannot be exposed."

So, everything makes sense.

Zhan Shuyun temporarily dispelled his suspicion.

He chuckled.

There was no other movement around him. He turned around and asked, "Are there any other traps?"
