A man's voice came from outside, "Little Master, we are foot merchants, because we were in a hurry to miss the inn, so in desperation, we can only come here to ask for accommodation, and I hope that the little master will have a convenient trip." ”

"This ......" If it is a female guest, Yilin will open the door, but it is a male guest, and under normal circumstances, their temple does not accept male guests. When Yi Lin was still hesitating, she said outside: "Little Master, I really can't help your temple when I can't help it, and I also ask Little Master to open the door of convenience, let us rest for a while, and we must donate more sesame oil money." ”

"Okay then." Yilin thought for a while, and finally couldn't bear them sleeping in the wild, so she opened the temple gate, but she didn't know that she had already lured a group of vicious wolves in!

Because the night was dark, Yilin didn't have a lantern in her hand, so she couldn't see the appearance of the people outside the door, let alone the weapons they hid behind her, so she only said that they were really here to stay, and said after announcing the Buddha's name: "A few donors, please!" ”

"Thank you, little master!" With these words, the dark eagle pulled out the long knife hidden behind him and slashed at Yilin, who only had time to scream in pain before falling to the ground covered in blood. However, her shout attracted the attention of everyone in the Buddha hall, and Xu was about to get up and go out to see what was going on, Jing'an held her down and said, "The noble stay here, and the poor nun will go out to see!" ”

Jing'an came back as soon as she walked to the door of the hall, but her posture when she came back was a little strange, she was backwards, as if she was forced by someone, and in fact, she did have a knife around her neck, "You...... What do you want to do? ”

The masked dark eagle, his eyes swept in the hall, and he already knew who the Xu family was, because among the many nuns, she and Zirong were the only ones with hair, and the makeup of the master and servant had always been very different.

"Hand over all the valuable things in your temple, if you hide them and don't hand them over, I will kill you immediately." Yingge asked them to pretend to be Jiangyang thieves, just because they didn't want Yinzhen to suspect that someone had deliberately assassinated the Xu family.

Jing An calmed down and said, "We are a temple here, where is there anything valuable." ”

Dark Eagle said coldly: "Old nun, are we fools? Hui'an Temple is a royal temple, just those incense money is terrible, how can there be no money, the acquaintance quickly hand it over, otherwise the little nun just now is your fate, if you are not afraid of death, you can try. Hurry up! ”

Jing'an was afraid that they would really kill people, so she had to let people fetch all the valuable things in the temple, and at the same time, the Ouchi guards in charge of Xu's safety heard the movement and came over.

Dark Eagle knew that there were Ouchi guards, so they brought all the first-class secret guards, and the number was superior, and he quickly suppressed those Ouchi guards, and seeing that he could take their lives, suddenly another group of people rushed in and helped the Ouchi guards block them.

Dark Eagle looked wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Who are you?" ”

The person led by the other party sneered: "You don't need to know the way, if you know each other, retreat quickly, otherwise be careful and your life will be lost!" ”

This was originally the words of the Dark Eagle threatening Jing'an, but now he was threatened by someone in turn, which was really infuriating, the Dark Eagle stopped talking, and only attacked the opponent's fateful place. He was originally the leader of the dark guards carefully cultivated by Inge, and he was good at assassination, once he did it with all his might, the other party would soon be a little overwhelmed, and the other side was similar, and he was fiercely suppressed by those dark guards.

"I really don't know who wants whose life!" After spitting out these cold words, the dark eagle clinged to the bloody steel knife and slashed at the opponent's body with all his might, wanting to end the opponent's life once and for all.

Seeing that it was impossible to escape his life, the other party raised his anger and shouted: "Hurry up!" ”

Just after these words, Dark Eagle felt a strong killing intent, and that killing intent even made him feel dangerous. Before he could understand where the killing machine was coming from, a sharp arrow flew past his cheek, leaving a blood-red mark.

"Not good, there are archers in ambush!" The person who shouted this sentence was already shot in the chest by an arrow in the next moment.

The tide was reversed at this moment, and the arrows kept coming, and although the Dark Eagle led the men to hide in the shadows as quickly as possible, causing the archers to lose their heads, more than half of his men were killed or wounded.

And after they hid in the shadows, the archers also stopped shooting, and the two sides presented a strange stalemate, as for those who originally fought with the Dark Eagle, they were protected around the Xu clan together with the Ouchi guards, so that the Dark Eagle could not find a chance to attack at all.

"My lord, what now?" A wounded secret guard asked, no one could have imagined that what should have been a good thing to do, such a change had occurred, I don't know who sent those people, and how did they know that they would come here.

Dark Eagle gritted his teeth and was silent, just now he had tried to break into the main hall and kill the Xu clan with a fast body, but as soon as he stepped out of the darkness, the arrows would shoot like rain, making it impossible for him to approach the main hall at all, let alone kill the Xu clan.

After some weighing, Dark Eagle gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word, "Withdraw!" ”

Of course, they are not afraid of death, and they are secret guards who take orders first, but that does not mean that they will die in vain, and in the case of too much difference in strength between the two sides, even if they are all killed, they cannot complete the task, retreating is undoubtedly the best choice.

After the Dark Eagle evacuated, those people and archers also evacuated, leaving Xu and the others who had no idea what was going on in the Dao.

It was late at night, but Hongli hadn't slept yet, still staying in the study, and Xiao Zhengzi stood quietly aside.

I don't know how long later, a gust of wind came from outside the door, blowing the candle flame on the candlestick for a while, flickering and dimming, and when the candle flame stabilized, there was one more person in the study.

This person is Hongli's most trusted subordinate, his name is Ade, and it was he who stopped Dark Eagle and the others just now, "My subordinates knock on the prince." ”

Hongli saw the blood dripping from Ade's body, and hurriedly asked Xiao Zhengzi to help him to the side and sit down, and then said, "How is it, did you protect Xu Guiren?" ”

"Fortunately, the prince sent a team of archers to his subordinates, otherwise Xu Guiren would really be in danger." As he spoke, Ade carefully recounted the situation just now, and then said: "According to the words of the prince, the subordinates let the uninjured people and archers continue to lie in ambush outside the temple, so as not to let those people go and return." ”

"Good!" Knowing that the Xu family had nothing to do, Hongli let out a long breath, "You go down to bandage the wound first, and the rest will be arranged by this king." ”

Although Ade was very curious about why Hongli wanted to send himself to protect the Xu family, he knew that these were not what he should ask, so he could only endure his curiosity and retreat.

After Ade retreated, Hongli instructed Xiao Zhengzi: "Prepare the horse immediately, this king will go to the Dingwang Prince's Mansion." ”

Xiao Zhengzi persuaded: "Lord Wang, the night is already deep, the second elder brother must have rested, why don't you go again tomorrow?" ”
