Chapter 22: The Secret Guard XIV

The moon outside had almost risen in mid-air, and the two of them got up and left their seats.

Before leaving the store, Bai Yi bought two dozen fried wontons, wrapped them tightly in three layers of oiled paper, and then went home. The wind was tight at night, Bai Yi wrapped the fried wontons in his chest, protected them with one hand, and held Bai Ling with the other.

The clouds in the sky floated slowly, and the moonlight was bright and dark.

All tomorrow's troubles are left to tomorrow to solve, and the two talk and laugh, as if all the unpleasantness of tonight has been left behind.

However, this pleasure did not last long, and when they were almost home, the two of them stopped in unison.

At the mouth of the alley, which should have been silent and empty, there were now six or seven brocade guards, holding torches, and standing facing the alley—this was obviously at least twice as many men as they had been in the evening!

Bai Yi and Bai Ling only felt their hearts sinking, and they both walked forward quickly, and before they got close to the alley, a brocade guard with a raw face half-pulled out his iron blade, stopped the two of them, and shouted, "What are you doing!?" ”

Bai Yi stood in front of Bai Ling, with a faint anger on his face, and said coldly, "Our family is in this alley. ”

"Let's go!" The man's expression was quite domineering, and he intentionally or unintentionally slammed the half-out hilt of the knife into Bai Yi's body, "There is a big event in there now, and idle people are not allowed to approach!" ”

Bai Yi glanced at the other party's blade glowing with cold light, and forcibly suppressed the disgust in his heart, "What is the big deal?" ”

"Hey, I said you still kicked your nose in the face, didn't you, don't give your face?" The brocade guard directly pushed and shoved Bai Yi back three or four steps, and said with a cruel smile, "There are rebellious ministers and thieves here inciting rebellion!" If you don't leave, you will be punished as a conspiracy! ”

"Rebels and thieves?" Bai Yi only felt his heartbeat accelerate suddenly, "You make it clear, who is the rebel and thief?" ”

The brocade guard couldn't have imagined that there was such a person in the world who didn't know what to do—his words did not scare Bai Yi at all, but aroused the disobedience in the other party's bones.

In the afterglow, Bai Ling and Bai Yi both noticed that several other brocade guards also slowly surrounded this side when they saw this.

Not good, not good......

The man spat to the side and shouted, "Third master! There are anti-ministers and fellow parties here! ”

Before the words fell, there was a piercing metal sliding - it was the sound of an extremely sharp embroidered spring knife coming out of its sheath, and Bai Ling only felt a few cold rays of light coldly sweep his eyes.

"What are you doing!"

Bai Yi subconsciously opened his hand and blocked Bai Ling behind him, and before he could see the direction of the knife, he felt a chill in his neck - the other party's knife was already on his shoulder!

The imminence of death made his mind almost blank for a moment, and before he could react, he heard a sharp shout from Bai Ling behind him, which almost pierced the sky-

"Fourteen!! 14——!!! ”

This voice not only blinded Bai Yi, but also blinded a few brocade guards.

Is this girl scared stupid, suddenly shouting something?

It's just that in the next moment, several crisp and melodious pops came from the positions of several brocade guards in turn, and everyone only felt a tingle in their hands, and they couldn't even hold the knife.

The embroidered spring knife fell to the ground one after another, and it made a clanging sound!

Bai Ling grabbed Bai Yi's arm tightly and pulled him back a few steps, but the night was dark, and the two fell to the ground together without taking a few steps back.

The bright moon once again pierced through the clouds, illuminating the ground with silver light.

"Hurt? Did you just get hurt? Bai Ling's voice was soft and urgent, and she already had a little crying, and she hurriedly stood up and went to check Bai Yi's left neck—fortunately, the knife only scratched the outermost bit of fabric of her clothes.

Bai Yi was still a little stunned, he sat there, and almost heard his own heartbeat - the violent heartbeat almost made him have some tinnitus for a while, and before he could calm down, he looked at Bai Ling on the side with some difficulty, and shook his head softly, "I'm fine." ”

Several brocade guards quickly leaned over and picked up the knife, and one of them had sharp eyes, and suddenly found that there was a shadow on the ground - the man was dressed in black, standing silently on the eaves of the alley, and no one found it!

Realizing that something was wrong, one of them pulled out a signal cigarette from behind his boot and was about to pull the latch to call for support, when the man on the roof struck again.

No one could see what was going on, only a scream, and the smoke fell to the ground—head down, straight into the earth.

Under the moonlight, the man in black standing on the roof suddenly opened his arms and jumped to the ground almost silently.

Several brocade guards drew their swords at each other, but they all took a step back in unison.

This black-clothed visitor looked to be in his early twenties, dressed in a very capable short robe, with broad shoulders and narrow waist and mantis legs, and he knew at a glance that his kung fu was not weak. He had a handsome countenance, but the most striking thing was his eyebrows and hair—they were snow-white and almost dazzling in the moonlight.

Not only that, but his bare skin was unusually pale, and in contrast, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle and glittering, almost penetrating to the heart.

If you add to this his quiet deeds and treacherous methods......

All of this is a warning to everyone that this person is dangerous.

After the man in black landed, he walked straight to Bai Ling's side, he held Bai Ling's forearm with one hand, and lifted her up from the ground like a puppeteer lifting his own doll. Then he turned around neatly and walked towards the place where the brocade guards were gathered.

At this time, the brocade guards jumped to their feet as if they had been stepped on by their tails and shouted, "Don't come——!! Don't come—you, you—"

Until the two sides were about four or five steps apart, no one expected that the man in black actually took out a waist card directly from his waist and showed it on the spot.

The voices of those brocade guards with intimidation and fear also stopped abruptly at this time,

Most of the people present were familiar with that waist card, because they also had one hanging around their waists. On the reverse side is the words "Beizhen Fusi" engraved in silver, and on the front is the three big characters engraved in the official book - Jinyiwei.

The man spoke softly, "It's all a misunderstanding, put the knife away." ”

This move caught the Jinyi guards off guard, and several of them looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.

At this moment, a few strong male voices came from the rooftop - the brocade guard who was originally stationed at the other end of the alley heard the news.

"What's wrong with you guys here, yelling?"

A few Jinyi guards came back to their senses at this time, raised their heads and said, "Three...... Third Master ...... This person...... This man he ......"

Before they could finish explaining, the person on the roof had already flown down to the ground, and the man known as the third master looked at him with a sharp gaze, and approached and hugged his fist, "Fourteenth master, why are you here?" ”

Only then did everyone react to the meaning of Bai Ling's "fourteen" just now.
