Liu Yunqing's heart trembled when he heard the sound of arrows being nailed to the car frame. It's really not a good time to go out today. One wave has just subsided, and another wave has risen, and each wave is more dangerous than the last.
"You stay in the car, I'll go out and take a look." Xia Jingyao patted Liu Yunqing on the back to reassure her.
"Xia Jingyao, promise me not to get hurt." Liu Yunqing reached out to hold Xia Jingyao.
"Don't worry, we are prepared this time." Xia Jingyao held Liu Yunqing's hand and said.
Faced with the sudden attack, He Wu did not panic at all and calmly commanded the guards to defend. At this time, at both ends of the street, a large number of men in black came to kill. After shooting arrows on the roof, the man in black put down his crossbow, drew his sword and jumped down. Neither side said a word, fighting together in silence. The man in black attacks ruthlessly, and every move he makes is a killing move.
Soon, people on both sides were injured and then died. The guards of the Hou Mansion are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time. Although they are at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, their cooperation with each other and their skillful tactics make up for the lack of numbers. On the other hand, the men in black are fighting on their own, with no cooperation at all, but they are all brave and not afraid of death. Xia Jingyao got out of the car and climbed onto the roof of the car. Xia Jingyao observed that the two warring parties slowly looked away. At the end of the street, eight men in black were walking slowly. Xia Jingyao jumped from the roof of the car to the roof of the nearby house, then stepped on the roof, passed the two warring parties, and came to the eight men in black.
"I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon. If I guessed correctly, you must be the Eight Great Yamas of Mingyue Gate." Xia Jingyao said, looking at the eight people in front of him.
"The reason you didn't die last time was because you needed to live. Today is the day you die." The man in black in the middle said coldly.
"It seems that Mingyue Gate has something to do with the Sheriff's Mansion." Xia Jingyao wanted to deceive the other party.
"The dead don't need to know so much." The man in black who spoke just now waved his hand, and the eight of them rushed towards Xia Jingyao at the same time.
Xia Jingyao rushed towards the eight people without any hesitation. In the process of charging forward, Xia Jingyao touched his waist with his right hand and drew out the soft sword. As soon as they fought, Xia Jingyao sealed the throat of a man in black with a sword. Seeing Xia Jingyao coming up, he killed one person instantly, and the other men in black were shocked. Now Xia Jingyao's combat power is much higher than before. Despite this, the remaining men in black did not hesitate at all and went towards Xia Jingyao with all their strength.
Xia Jingyao succeeded with one blow, turned his body, and attacked the next target. Xia Jingyao fought one against seven and did not fall behind at all. While defending, he could continue to attack. Less than a quarter of an hour later, three more men in black were killed. Xia Jingyao with bare hands and Xia Jingyao with a sword in his hand have different fighting abilities. Killing four people in a row, Xia Jingyao became more and more courageous as he fought, while the pressure on the man in black on the opposite side increased. Soon, two more men in black were killed. The remaining two men in black did not dare to fight head-on and turned around and rushed towards the fierce battle between the two sides. The two wanted to escape, but Xia Jingyao would not let them escape. Xia Jingyao caught up with the two men and killed them to the ground with two swords.
At this time, reinforcements from the Hou Mansion arrived. Attacking from the front and back, most of the men in black were killed. The patrols in the city also arrived at this time. The remaining men in black immediately began to flee in all directions when they saw the officers and soldiers arriving. Under the siege of the guards and patrols of the Hou Mansion, most of the remaining men in black were killed, and only a handful of them escaped. After killing the man in black, Xia Jingyao put away his soft sword and came to the car.
"Xia Jingyao, are you not injured?" Liu Yunqing looked Xia Jingyao up and down and asked anxiously.
"No, thanks to the soft sword you gave me, I also avenged the last revenge." Xia Jingyao smiled and patted his waist.
"It's the same group of people this time as last time. Why did they attack us?" Liu Yunqing was relieved to see that Xia Jingyao was fine.
"It may have something to do with the Sheriff's Mansion. Both times happened after beating Xiao Ming. The first time, the other party did not kill us. This time, they wanted to drive us all away." Xia Jingyao did not hide it, but he did not explain it. Things about the Moon Gate. The Mingyue Sect's killers were so pervasive that Xia Jingyao was afraid that if Liu Yunqing found out, he would be so frightened that he could not sleep at night.
"Then what should we do? Will they take action against us?" Liu Yunqing asked worriedly.
"This time the government has been alarmed. There will definitely be no action in the near future. However, we cannot take it lightly. When you leave the house, you must take your guards with you. Haitang cannot leave your side." Xia Jingyao ordered.
"Well, then I won't leave the house unless I have nothing to do." Liu Yunqing said obediently. If it's because of Xiao Ming, then it's because of her. Liu Yunqing suddenly felt guilty. Xia Jingyao almost lost his life last time.
Back at the Hou Mansion, Xia Jingyao asked Butler He to prepare meals. Liu Yunqing went back to her room, changed her clothes, and came to the front hall. At this time, Xia Jingyao was already waiting for her, and the table was filled with all kinds of delicacies. Liu Yunqing came and sat down next to Xia Jingyao. This was the first time he had dinner with Xia Jingyao in the Hou Mansion for so long.
"Want to drink?" Xia Jingyao looked at Liu Yunqing and asked.
"Drink some, it's the festival, drink some wine to be in the mood." Liu Yunqing responded with a smile.
Xia Jingyao poured wine for Liu Yunqing himself.
"Master Hou, can you promise Yun Qing something?" Liu Yunqing asked as he watched Xia Jingyao pouring wine for him.
"Say." Xia Jingyao poured himself wine.
"Can you let Butler He, He Wu, Lian'er, and Haitang eat with us? The Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival for reunions, and it's a bit too deserted for just the two of us." Liu Yunqing wanted everyone to have a fun time together.
"I'll listen to you today. You can do it if you say you can." Xia Jingyao said with a smile.
"Great, sit down quickly and let's eat together." Liu Yunqing happily said to the four people standing beside him.
"Thank you, Mr. Marquis, thank you, madam." After the four thanked them, they sat down.
The six people happily had a reunion dinner, changing cups and cups, and it was so lively. Today, Liu Yunqing's mood fluctuated greatly. Now that he had wine, he couldn't help but drink a few more drinks. As expected, Liu Yunqing drank too much again. Xia Jingyao carried Liu Yunqing back to Qingyun Courtyard, and did not leave until Liu Yunqing fell asleep.
"Sir, the location of the man in black has been found, Yanyu Tower." As soon as he returned to Jingyuan, He Wu stepped forward to report.
"Myanyu Tower. The man in black tonight should be the Mingyue Sect's killer. Such a large number of killers attacked brazenly. It seems that the previous intelligence is accurate. The headquarters of Mingyue Sect is in Fuchang County. Not only that, I'm afraid Xiao Cheng is inextricably related to Mingyue Sect. Perhaps Xiao Cheng is the real helmsman of Mingyue Sect. Send someone to check Xiao Cheng's background to see if anything was missed before. Tomorrow , let's go to Yanyu Tower to see if we can find any clues." Xia Jingyao expressed his guess.
"Master, do you really want to go to Yanyu Tower? That's a brothel." He Wu reminded.
"Brother? Let's talk about it tomorrow. You've been busy all day, go down and rest." Xia Jingyao suddenly felt uneasy when he heard that Yanyu Tower was a brothel.
It has been more than a month since I came to Fuchang County, and the investigation of Mingyue Gate has finally made a breakthrough. However, the power of Mingyue Sect seems to be greater than imagined.
