The general structure of the Japanese-style inn is not much different from that of Rigal, because they are all people, so the needs are also similar, at most there are some differences in some details.

The three-storey hotel is made of wood throughout, with the exception of the lower floor, where the walls are bricked and plastered to increase the load-bearing capacity. The floor inside the ground floor is similar to that of a Japanese-style house in a feudal area, with a raised floor to keep out the moisture on the ground. Although Ziyun is located in a higher area of Zhangzhou's territory, dampness is still an unavoidable problem.

The inn where the group stayed was also very old, and although the wood was newly painted, the mottled marks and the natural presence of the fine wood over time still reveal the taste of the passage of time.

The handrails of the staircase, painted in bright red lacquer, have been completely erased from the edges and corners of the staircase and have become smooth and moist due to years of use by customers and staff, and if you look closely, the center of the wooden floor is a little sunken compared to the sides due to years of tampling.

Although the curtain at the doorway is still new, the cheap calligraphy and painting at the corner of the staircase facing the window on the second floor is noticeably more faded than the surrounding scrolls because of the perennial sunlight.

The years have quietly left their mark on these items, and the inn had been open for many years long before the group arrived, and if nothing else, it should have continued after the group had left.

"Squeak—"

The wooden planks on the ground floor that have been eroded by moisture near the ground make a subtle sound due to the perennial use, and the deliberately controlled footsteps are faint and imperceptible.

Especially at this moment when the average person has already fallen asleep.

At 3 a.m., wrapped in a cloth soaked in peppermint oil and licorice, the uninvited guests lit the cigarette pipe they had brought with them and pierced the paper window with their wet fingers, allowing the smell of requiem incense to permeate the homes of customers and clerks.

"Ahem-ahem-ahem-" A slight cough sounded, and the frowning brow from discomfort only lasted for a short time, before falling into a deep sleep under the effects of the drug.

'Two-tier solution', the uninvited guests quietly communicated in sign language, and then confirmed the equipment again, lined up and walked towards the third floor.

They moved quickly and steadily, step by step, without the slightest panic or surprise. And the news was extremely well blocked, and no one knew about their arrival. It's an organization known for its stability, and it's not the first time they've taken on a job like this.

In order to make sure that no sound came out to alert them when they infiltrated the vicinity of their targets, they even used requiem incense in the stables, which put the sensitive cars of these warriors to sleep.

Everything should be perfect.

If requiem would work on all horses—

"Neigh, hoo hoo——! the roar of the horses rang out at the moment when the group had just stepped on the three-story slab.

"What the hell, why doesn't it work. "Don't panic, the opportunity is still in my hands!" Unlike the panic of his subordinates, the captain reacted quickly: "Use the projectile! ”

"Crossbow winding!" he gave the order quickly, and in this close-knit and familiar little team, everyone did their part and did not interfere with each other. A large dose of bakugan made from concentrated requiem grass juice was ignited, and they were thrown directly into the room where the target lived at the end of the hallway.

"Bang!!" instantly burst the smoke bomb and diffused the extremely high concentration of requiem incense, although the range is small and the effect cannot last, but it is enough to buy time.

"Don't rush on, our scarves won't stop this dose. ”

"What's the matter-" "Bang-" The sleepy-eyed passer-by heard the movement and opened the door, but it was an arrow to the brain.

"Ahh

"I don't want to shut up, I don't want to kill women, don't be an exception. The leader raised his fingers, and the female companion covered her mouth with a shocked look on her face, and nodded as if the chick pecked rice.

"Advance, it should work, even if it's a samurai—" "Bang-" The sliding door at the end fell to the ground with a thud, blowing away the rich requiem incense like an oversized folding fan.

The smoke was filled under the silvery moonlight, and the team leader immediately reacted: "Release the arrow!" gave the order, but it was still too late.

"Boom, boom, boom!" For a moment, the huge figure that blocked the moonlight from the window seemed to be the legendary wall-painted monster, and it was only when the crossbow bolt hit the target that they realized that the other party was holding something.

- The biggest difference between the Waren inn and Rigal is that there are fewer compartments, because there are few single travelers in this country, and most of the rooms in the inn are empty and large and only separated by wood-framed pasted paper screens, so they also seize this opportunity to kill each other by surprise.

But that—

"Ah, it's a cloth ball!" The mattress used to sleep under the body can be 30 centimeters thick if the two are folded side by side, and although it is fluffy, if it is thick enough, the defense is already comparable to soft armor.

The bolt should have penetrated, but it had exhausted all its strength to penetrate such a thick mattress.

Didn't kill effectively - everyone shot their crossbows empty.

What was going on, why was the reaction so fast, what was going on, it was only a split second from the horse's neighing, and he made his judgment in the shortest possible time, without any mistakes at all.

No matter how good a samurai is, he shouldn't—

"Boss!" "Bang ——!!" The arrows full of crossbow arrows flew through the aisle in an instant, and the distance of more than ten meters was worthy of falling in front of the group.

It has been less than 3 seconds since the sound of the horse's chirp.

It is less than 2 seconds after the dizzying and disruptive smoke is thrown.

Obviously it was a time to be tired and asleep, and they were suddenly awakened, and in order to be safe, they threw out a condensed requiem incense, but the other party's reaction speed -

"Battle-hardened. ”

——!The dazzling Kramer slashed the 30-centimeter-thick mattress in two with one of the Assassins behind him to cover his boss.

"Huh-" The Assassin's blood splattered on the ground before he could even scream, and the sage with his back to the moonlight looked at each other from top to bottom with blue eyes.

"What's going on. "It's an enemy attack, and the gentleman has rushed out. "Get my sword!" The samurai, who had slowed down a beat, woke up in a hurry, a chaotic shout and a distracted cough sounding one after another.

"Stand back, Abu Adin loads the arrows, and the others press forward!" The leader of the assassins, who reacted quickly, made a decisive decision: "Don't go head-to-head with this Southern Barbarian, our target is the samurai, kill him from other rooms!"

He commanded his younger brother in the dialect of his hometown to avoid being detected by the man in front of him. However, even if the sage could not understand the language, he could judge it from the actions of the people around him.

He turned around and tried to intercept the others to buy time.

"Abu Adin!" but the leader of the Assassins, seeing that his intentions were revealed, immediately ordered his men to shoot crossbow arrows.

"Pop!" the sage slashed the bolt with a clean slash from Kramer. "Tsk!" "Die!" But then two more people rushed up, obviously trying to entangle him and prevent him from defending himself.

"Teacher, leave it to us here. But it was at this moment that the voice of the girl from behind came from behind, and then the door next to the woman's room was opened, and the hurried movement of Kaleva and the shouts of Yajiro distributing weapons rang out, respectively.

"What a reliable disciple. He decisively gave up his intention to come back, because the companion behind him was not a toddler who needed his care, all he needed to do.

Defeat all enemies in front of you.

Dodging the dagger sideways, he used his physical advantage to grab the opponent and twist it when he held the sword in one hand, and kicked him towards the other while the dagger hit the ground, and then slashed the two assassins with a single sword swing with one hand.

"Get out of the room! this guy's sword is too big—" The remaining Assassins shouted as they escorted the leader into the room of the woman whose companion had been killed, and one of them ran over and grabbed the shivering woman hiding in the corner and stopped him.

"Ahhh

"Nanban, if you don't want this woman-" "Poof-" The sharp tip of the great sword pierced smoothly and steadily forward, like an instrument made by the most delicate craftsman, and pierced the scarf on his face and into his mouth, stabbing out the back of his neck, and the assassin's threatening words were as weak as the knife in his hand that had not yet reached the woman's neck.

"Heh-" Holding one hand close to the gauntlet, the other hand grasping the weight ball, and using the forehand as a fulcrum, the back hand is used as a fulcrum.

"Smack!" The powerful blade cut the assassin's head in half from the bottom to the top, and the stunned woman sat on her knees with wide eyes as the corpse fell to the ground, feeling something warm and sticky on her neck, she reached out and touched half of her tongue.

"Devil, !!" the screaming tenant turned and fled the room, never to return, and Henry swung his sword and slashed away an arrow shot at her as she ran away.

With no chance to wind it again, the Assassins decisively threw away their crossbows and pulled out their daggers.

There were still five people left, including the leader, and although the room was not big, there was enough space to move around, and they looked at each other, and then the tight diamond-shaped escort formation changed to a scattered fan-shaped formation, and the idea of fighting was clear at a glance.

"Ah, I know what you're thinking. The sage lowered his gray-blue eyes and said in a steady tone: "There are five of us here, and no matter how strong this Nanban is, he will only be one of himself, and if he goes up from different directions, he will always be able to catch the loophole and hit it." ”

"Well, it's not surprising to think so. No matter how airtight the swordsmanship is, no matter how fast the swordsmanship is, there will be loopholes. If you're lucky, a moment of catching a hole can be enough to deliver a fatal blow. ”

"Ask yourselves, then, then. He looked directly at the men.

"Am I lucky?"

"Up!" the Assassin leader ordered.

The moment Mitya's voice sounded, Mira woke up, the vibration of the magic making it difficult for her to breathe, and a cold sweat on her forehead. This is a unique experience of the unicorn's psyche, and immediately realizing that the little one is warning her, she decisively shakes the other women around her and picks up her own knife.

And it was at this time that she heard someone outside shouting something, followed by the sound of "popping" and the thick fog that filled the air.

"Ahem—" Smoke spilled through the crack in the door, making her feel dizzy immediately.

"Hold your breath!" and Lulu reminded the three of them in time, and then directly took out a mountain knife, cut the quilt, and then sprinkled something on it with a portable medicine pot: "Wrap your mouth and nose." The girl from the hunter moved even faster than the Luoan girl, and after taking the things she handed her and surrounding her face, a breath of spicy stimulation permeated her mouth and nose, which made the Luoan girl wake up in shock.

"It's an attack, and it's an expert. She reacted immediately, Sakura and Aya were a little overwhelmed, and Lulu was not good at fighting despite knowing how to deal with smoke.

Mira hesitated for a moment, and the group of a dozen or so was divided into three rooms, with the sage in the largest room with the older samurai, monks, and ashigaru, and Yajiro and Kaleva and the young samurai in the room next to the Luoan Maiden.

How to warn your companions, how to merge? The only equipment on hand was a protective weapon, the baggage was stored in the inn's warehouse, and the armor was stored in the armory house for maintenance except for a few people—and even if the armor was around, it was obviously too late to wear it.

She thought about the plan, but it was at this time that another voice sounded outside—

"Bang-" The door fell and used as a fan to blow away the thick smoke - the door of the inn was not solid wood, but it was not so fragile, and there was only one person she knew could easily do such a thing.

"It's the teacher. ”

"Ahhh

"Let's go out and meet the others, Lulu, do you have any more refreshing medicine? She asked, looking back.

"Yes," the girl nodded. "But outside—" Miss Doctor was a little uneasy, but Miss Luo An just pulled out her waist knife and said without wavering, "The teacher is here." ”

She decisively opened the door and led the group to join the others, while the young master, who had recovered half a beat slowly, commanded the young warriors in his room to get ready to go out.

The moment they met their eyes, several people understood the reason why they went out.

Unreserved trust in the tall back, because he had already made a move, the situation outside the room was somehow under his control.

But it can't all be up to him—

The girl immediately noticed the division of the Assassins, and her teacher lowered Kramer's defensive position, intending to turn around and intercept - it was obvious that the Assassins sent by the other side were not aimed at one or two people, and they realized the strength of the sage, so they immediately took measures to divide their forces, intending to kill and injure as many other team members as possible who did not react.

"It's underestimated. Mira and Yajiro exchanged a glance, then turned to the back of their teacher and spoke loudly.

————

The battle ended with a slight cost of two injuries on the samurai's side, both of whom had fallen from their horses because they had fled before, and who fought bravely in order to save their reputation, and were injured by their carelessness.

Judging by the eyes of a professional warrior, this can only be said to be courageous and simple-minded.

The Assassins who came lightly carried items for conspiracy, such as short knives, crossbows, and various smoke bombs that disturbed the eye. If the sneak attack is successful, their weapons are indeed lethal enough, but after the well-trained professional samurai has come to their senses and pulled out their bows and short spears, they only need to form a tight formation to hold the corridor, the spearmen in front of them stand side by side to prevent the opponent from approaching, and the archers in the rear shoot arrows to kill, and they can safely destroy their opponents.

Therefore, in this case, the samurai who rushed forward and fell into a melee with the intention of showing courage to save their reputation by defeating the majority by defeating the majority by a few can only be said to be brave and resourceless.

Most of the Assassins' short weapons had no real effect, and their light clothing could not stop the powerful warbows, and they could no longer dodge even if they were hit.

After the few crossbow-wielding ones were killed in advance, there was no suspense about the rest.

Henry alone held back nearly a third of the Assassins' strength, and the overwhelming samurai attempted to target their legs and feet after eliminating half of their enemies in an attempt to leave them alive, but the Assassins immediately swallowed the instant poison and died foaming at the mouth.

"It's a good hand. Narumi said with a hint of appreciation, and the group watched as Henry stepped out of the room where he had kicked the door.

Kramer in one hand and a man in the other.

"Sir......." the samurai leader said with some utterance.

"He pinched off his hand before he could eat the poison. The sage shrugged his shoulders and took this kind of thing for granted as if he were drinking water: "This is the leader of these guys, seeing that he can't swallow the poison, he doesn't plan to kill himself by other means, and he is probably a man who spares his life." ”

"So let's talk to him. ”
