Rows of torches light up the old castle promenade, making the figures of the people walking in it very long.

With it had been confirmed that Smith of the Templar Order would visit again tonight, Yue Zhong no longer rushed to greet him this time, but arranged everything.

People who are not in his interpretation bureau can still bring some uncertainty to Yue Chong for the time being, but since he has already walked in, Yue Chong is enough to deduce many futures and causes.

The biggest difficulty for the Templars at this stage comes from Kaisin, who dares to do it directly against Yue Zhong and Xiao Meiqing, plus the Assassin organization, which has always been in a hostile state with the Templar Order, has not moved, if Smith does not come this time, he can't resist the pressure and has no choice but to ask Yue Zhong for verification and help, and this ancient castle will not be so peaceful anymore.

Yue Zhong led Smith all the way, but instead of going to his own study, he came to the castle's watchtower.

The long line of torches and the layered security structure under his feet were a little farther away, and Yue Zhong pressed his hands on the fence of the watchtower and turned his back to Smith and said, "Mr. Smith seems to have completely ignored my warning to the Templar Order, and it is not good that you have brought all this strife and filth to my house." ”

"I didn't know that Mr. Yue Zhong had such a warning. Smith was quite vigilant and said with a bit of temptation, Yue Chong's actions during this period of time Yue Zhong did not take the initiative to follow the previously agreed channels, and he basically did not have much action in other aspects, so it is not surprising that the magical girl organization can detect the actions of the Templar Knights, but Yue Zhong should not know.

"At least that's what someone within you reminded you. Yue Chong's eyes were full of brilliant stars, and in front of those stars standing high above the clouds, the current troubles and battles seemed to be not worth mentioning, but he was not able to compare with him as indifferently, and no matter how much he could calculate, he was always in the game.

"Is Mr. Yue Zhong too ......" Smith wanted to argue, because he felt that Yue Chong was completely deceiving himself with empty gloves and white wolves, and there was no logic and evidence at all.

Yue Zhong interrupted with a wave of his hand, "There is nothing to justify, since you ignored this warning and brought people to my house, then the Knights Templar must be prepared to pay the price." ”

"......" Smith was a little unable to accept Yue Chong's speed of turning his face, obviously his attitude was still amiable when he came last time, but this time he suddenly became impersonal, could it be that he was manipulating all this behind the scenes?

"Mr. Smith, don't think I'm just alarmist, whether it happened in this castle or outside the castle is completely different concepts for me, and whether it happened to Xiaoqing is also different in nature, so don't challenge my bottom line next time. Yue Zhong picked up a bow and arrow in the corner of the watchtower, weighed the weight and the strength of the bowstring, and then turned around without warning and opened his bow and arrow.

Six arrows flashed like meteors in a faint and instantaneous light into the shadow of the castle, and Smith hurriedly looked over to find a shadow that was one with the night, forcibly cut and nailed to the castle wall.

"What people!" Yue Chong's swift arrow brought the highest level of security signal to the security guards of Xiaomei's house, and countless fires headed towards the black shadow nailed by the arrow, dispelling the dark light, and a man in a dark hooded cloak was clearly nailed to the wall.

His palms and ankles were pierced by arrows, and two fixed-position arrows stuck on either side of his neck, completely sealing the possibility of his struggle to escape.

Although it was bloody, the suspected assassin was not in danger of his life, and the security guards of Xiaomei's house lowered him from the wall after injecting him with a special potion.

"You didn't even notice that this Assassin must be one of the more powerful men in their organization, but he was too confident in his methods of concealment, and I didn't have any alertness when I fired my bow, otherwise I wouldn't have caught him so easily. Yue Zhong slowly put down his bow and arrows and continued to say to Smith, "It's not just Kaisin who has been eyeing you for a long time, the Assassin organization may have also reached a cooperation with him, this person will be handed over to you to ask and then hand it over to me, I have always been very interested in assassins." ”

The obvious evidence was in front of him, and Smith couldn't do anything if he wanted to quibble, even if it wasn't his intention to lure the assassin to the castle of Xiaomei's house, but the other party had followed him to this place, so what could be the explanation.

After nodding solemnly, Smith followed the security guard of Xiaomei's house to send the assassin into the cell below, while Yue Zhong slowly paced to the route where the assassin had moved.

The deacon in charge of security followed Yue Chong quite nervously, this time it was obviously a dereliction of duty in his work, Yue Chong never liked incompetent subordinates, and he didn't know if he could keep his current job and status.

"Okay, don't look at me worriedly, you can't stop such a person. Yue Zhong kicked the grass under his feet, it was a long time away from the stable, so he put a lot of horse fodder, "Come to the study tomorrow morning to find me to get the defense deployment map, although you can't use high-tech security facilities in the castle, but the defense equipment of the same period is not completely useless, I think modern assassins may not be good at dealing with these things." ”

The steward's face was slightly relieved, and he heard Yue Zhong say again: "These haystacks are all equipped with animal traps, maybe some of the unlucky ones will jump on their own." ”

Although I don't know if any assassin is so unlucky, but since Yue Zhong ordered the steward to do so, in his opinion, the head of the family is still soft-hearted, there is no need to be merciful to deal with these uninvited guests who try to trespass into the ancient castle, wouldn't it be good to just install a spike trap and let them fall down and simply die?

The night was only a little unquiet for Yue Chong, and if he really didn't want the Assassins or others to sneak into the castle, then he should have made arrangements for it from the beginning.

The Assassin, a profession that flourished in Chinese culture before the Qin Dynasty but then disappeared, has always been a place for many literati and artists, and Yue Chong is also a person who does not lack such historical fantasies, but until then he was more accustomed to the influence of the other party's presence.

Smith had a sleepless night, the underground cell of this ancient castle was a place he was also familiar with, but this time he spent the night and was unable to ask for any valuable clues from the captured assassin, until Yue Zhong slept and came to the cell, he still found nothing.
