"It's not that they must all be spies. I mean, I don't rule out this possibility. The Japanese have always been pervasive. They put their people in places you wouldn't expect and collect intelligence and report to them at any time. This is also their intelligence work. One of the reasons for doing well." Xu Tianjiao said.
"We only need to spend tonight, and when the horses are in hand tomorrow morning, we will leave. Why do we care about that?" Zhen Sifei said.
"That's true."
Three shifts at night.
Li Sijie and Xu Tianjiao sleep in the same room.
Li Sijie has fallen into a deep sleep.
At this time, a figure flashed beside the window. Someone pierced the window paper with his hand, and then blew smoke into the room with something like a flute.
After a while, the man was outside the door and gently moved the door bolt with a dagger. After a while, the door opened. The man put the dagger on his waist again, put on his mask, pushed the door open, and crept in from the outside. .
The man came to the bed, lay down on the bed, and said, "Beauty, you miss me so much!"
He originally thought there was a woman on the bed, but he missed her.
He felt very strange.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that his left ear was cold, and then he heard a "pop" sound, as if something fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, he felt a heartbreaking pain. He screamed "Ah!" and quickly covered his left ear with his hand, only to realize that his left ear had been cut off.
"My ears!" The man reached for his waist to pull the dagger, but found that the dagger was no longer in his waist. He didn't know when it had been pulled out, but he didn't see anyone.
He was so frightened that he didn't care to pick up the ears on the ground, rushed out of the door, and fled.
Tang Dalong, Li Sizhe and Zhen Sifei heard the noise and ran over quickly. They saw Xu Tianjiao and Li Sijie standing at the door of the room, as if nothing happened.
"What happened just now? Who was screaming?" Li Sizhe asked quickly.
"Brother, the screaming person has run away." Li Sijie said.
"How are you guys? Are you okay?"
"We're fine." Xu Tianjiao said lightly.
"It's okay."
"Let me tell you, my sister is really amazing. Just now I fell asleep, and she pushed me awake with her hand. It turned out that someone was blowing smoke into the room from the window. This smoke is poisonous. If you smell it, We would faint temporarily, so we got off the bed and covered our mouths and noses with towels. Unexpectedly, the man used a dagger to pick the door bolt and entered our room. At that time, I was frightened and didn't know what to do. , but my sister took advantage of his unpreparedness and gently walked up behind the man, pulled out the man's dagger, went up and cut off the man's left ear, and scared the man away!" Li Sijie said .
When the three of them heard this, they were all horrified and couldn't help but look at Xu Tianjiao with admiration.
Tang Dalong said: "Tianjiao, we thought you were a weak woman, but we didn't expect you to be a heroine. Not only are you top-notch in riding skills, but you also have certain kung fu. If you hadn't been specially trained, you wouldn't have been able to do it. at this point."
"Brother Tang, you are flattering me. In front of you, my skills are nothing but trivial, not worth mentioning." Xu Tianjiao said with a smile.
Li Sizhe was also very surprised and said, "Then have you found out who that person is?"
"We can't tell who he is yet, but judging by his accent, he is Japanese."
"What? Japanese?"
"Exactly."
