Two hours ago, Ling Ye was sitting in the Yamen of the Zhenkou Division, watching his colleagues inside busy for a while, his current official position is a sword officer, although the official residence is a fifth-grade official, but the actual affairs are not as good as those seventh-grade counselors.

Recently, with Song Yunlong's visit to the Son of Heaven, the trend of the world has undergone subtle changes, and rumors are boiling in the field, some say that Song Yunlong wants to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and some say that Song Yunlong was recruited by the imperial court, and now he has become a general of conquest.

In this eventful autumn, once the court situation is turbulent, the imperial city is always not peaceful, so the town of Kou Si has a great responsibility, and it is common to stay on duty all night like this.

It was Ling Ye's turn to be on duty tonight, but he had no other ability, he could only hold a sword to guard the home and protect the courtyard, and with his ability, it was more than enough to deal with ordinary first-class masters or killers.

But at midnight, a young man dressed as a servant stumbled in, covered in blood, and fell down the steps as soon as he entered.

Seeing this, the soldiers guarding the gate immediately helped him aside and informed the commander on duty, Ling Ye.

When Ling Ye rushed over, the servant was already being treated by the medical officer, and his appearance was extremely miserable, and the few knife wounds on his body were also extremely terrifying.

"Who are you, what's wrong?" Ling Ye asked.

The servant was still panting and stammered: "Meditation Nunnery, Meditation Nunnery, my young lady, young lady is dangerous......"

Jingxin Nunnery is located in the southern suburbs of a nunnery, in the imperial city is also famous, many dignitaries and nobles are inconvenient to go to the temple, so they all come here to pray for blessings, so this nunnery is also regarded as the peak of incense.

"What's wrong with the Meditation Nunnery?Who is your young lady?" Ling Ye was confused, he had never cared about this kind of nunnery, so he didn't have any feelings, just continued to ask.

"The master of my family is Master Guyue, the young lady, the young lady prayed for the family all night tonight, and went to the meditation nunnery with her friends, but she met a thief in the middle of the night, and now she doesn't know whether she is alive or dead. ”

The servant calmed down a little before continuing, but his expression was still very nervous.

Ling Ye couldn't help but feel strange, something happened to the young lady of the Guyue family, why did they come to Zhenkou Si if they didn't go to find the master of their own family?

At this time, the servant said intermittently: "This is the closest to the southern suburbs, so please send someone to rescue my young lady quickly, those government soldiers can't resist it." ”

Speaking of this, the servant coughed up another mouthful of blood in a hurry, and almost fainted.

"How many thieves are there?" Ling Ye didn't ask again when he saw that the situation was urgent.

"Just, there are only two, but we are not opponents ....... kung fu"

Hearing this, Ling Ye picked up the dagger and walked out quickly.

"Lord Ling, do you want to tell Lord Huang. Then a counselor asked in a whisper.

"It's late at night, and tomorrow I'll report it myself. Ling Ye had already rushed out as he spoke.

He had been in Zhenkousi for a few months, but most of the time he had nothing to do, and he had no clue about the tragedy, and he couldn't find anything else to do, so he could only hold his sword and watch the people busy.

At this moment, someone asked Zhen Kou Si for help, and he was also an ally of Jianghu Dao, thinking that if Huang Chongsheng made friends with the Guyue family, the future work would be easier, so he immediately set off.

The Jingxin Nunnery was only more than ten miles away from Zhenkou Si, which was also very close, and Ling Ye rushed all the way to the nunnery without two sticks of incense.

At this moment, the gate of the nunnery is open, and the lights are bright, and you can vaguely see incense and candles burning, and various utensils are placed in the front yard, which looks as if you are doing Buddhist things.

But inside is very quiet, revealing strangeness, if there is really an enemy invasion, it must not be such a scene, could it be that the people of the Guyue family have been killed?

Ling Ye took out the dagger, used the ghost step to avoid the main entrance, and jumped directly into the wall, this time he entered, he saw the corpses of the guards all over the ground, and the smell of blood came faintly.

There was only one wound in the guard, and that was the throat, and the throat was sealed with a knife, and the technique was crisp and neat, making Ling Ye feel a sense of déjà vu.

Worried about the safety of the victim, after all, this was the first time he had carried out the mission of the Zhenkou Division, but when he approached the main hall of the nunnery, a figure suddenly rushed over.

The person who came used a small knife, the knife technique was so fast and sharp that Ling Ye was caught off guard and even his arm was cut.

However, after all, Ling Ye had experienced many battles, even the storms of thousands of armor soldiers, and he immediately stabilized his pace and attacked with a backhand.

The ghost step is combined with the dagger, even the original Xiaofei has to deal with it carefully. But the assassin in front of him had a very strange knife technique, and it didn't seem to be a routine of the Central Plains.

After receiving more than ten moves, the assassin actually fled into the nunnery, and at this time, there was a scream from the nunnery, and it was a female voice.

Ling Ye immediately chased after him without hesitation, but when he broke the window and came inside, he found that it was pitch black all around, and all the fire candles were immediately extinguished.

There was an ambush? This was Ling Ye's first reaction, and almost at the same time, a sword wind came from behind him, hitting his neck.

Ling Ye reacted extremely quickly, and fell down after a short body, then leaned forward, and the dagger in his hand slashed at the bottom plate of the man in the darkness.

This move is extremely powerful, under normal circumstances, they would never have imagined that the attacked person would come towards the blade, let alone that they would temporarily change their move and attack the next game.

But Ling Ye did just that, and he caught the other party off guard.

After the sneak attacker retreated, Ling Ye began to look around, this should be the main hall, there was still the smell of incense and candles around, and vaguely he saw that something seemed to be covering the opposite window, blocking the moonlight outside.

Ling Ye immediately rushed over, he didn't know how many assassins were hiding here, what about the hostages, his first thought was to open the light source, and then find the target.

However, just as Ling Ye was approaching the shield, the wind shot over again, this time it should be a hidden weapon, and as the hidden weapon was swung away, he didn't use his hands to remove the shield, and directly slashed it with a knife, at this time a woman's screams came, and then Ling Ye obviously felt that the knife touched the flesh.

Slightly stunned, then the shield fell, a thick veil, and behind the veil was a woman, her face was pale, blood dripping from her throat, and she slowly collapsed in the moonlight.

Almost at the same time there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and then the door of the main hall was pushed open, and with the torches flashing, a large group of Praetorian Guards rushed in.

"There's an assassin!" one of the Praetorian Guards shouted, and everyone rushed in Ling Ye's direction.

Ling Ye was a little stunned at the moment, and hurriedly said to the Praetorian Guard: "I'm from the Zhen Kou Division, and the thieves are in the main hall, we were still fighting just now!"

Before Ling Ye could finish speaking, a sharp female voice shouted: "Dead, young grandma is dead! He! he killed young grandma!"

Young Grandma? Ling Ye subconsciously turned his head and looked at the woman behind her, under the moonlight, her face was still pale, her eyes were round, and she seemed to be dead.

Almost at the same time, Gu Yue Shaohui and the swordsman of the Gu Yue family also rushed in, and at the same time saw the young lady of the Gu Yue family lying on the ground!
