Chapter 724: The Masked Man in Black
The banquet lasted for a long time, and everyone drank from the afternoon until late at night, during which Deng Tongxian left first in order to be busy with the affairs of Huwei, until later, Sun Shengjie, the chief envoy of the Xuanniao Academy, sent someone to find Chu Hongjiao, and everyone reluctantly dispersed the banquet.
Xia Yi is also a little reluctant, mainly because there are too few entertainment projects here in the land of China, and it is easy for a group of good friends to get together to drink and chat, and he doesn't have to worry about the sequelae of headaches and drunkenness after getting drunk, he is very happy to do these things often.
Eating and drinking, leaving a mess and servants to clean up, Xia Yi felt the happiness of the eldest master for the first time, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, whether he has money or power, it is a happy thing.
With such a thought, Xia Yi did not practice and make spirit talismans diligently tonight, but fell asleep heavily.
That night, as the servants neatly cleaned up the mess, the Xia Mansion gradually regained the calm of the night, only the few lanterns still left in the courtyard were still lit, illuminating the main road of the courtyard in the mansion, but a large corner of the mansion was in darkness, and it was impossible to fully take care of it.
It was in these dark corners that a shadow moved quietly, and immediately regained its calm, and after an hour or so had passed, there was no other movement in the whole courtyard, and the hidden shadow moved quietly again.
Shortly after a patrol team flew overhead, the shadow quietly began to move, and he crept to the edge of the shadow, standing where the lantern light could not be found, and looked towards several houses in the backyard.
After observing this for a while, the black shadow cat moved slowly, quietly walking in the darkness, towards the nearest room in the backyard.
Just when he was still six or seven feet away from the house, the black shadow suddenly stopped, standing quietly among the flowers, using the surrounding scenery to hide his whereabouts.
Soon, the lights came on in the room, and a thin figure was reflected in the window. The figure walked back and forth in the house, and after a while, the door of the house creaked open, and the summer night came out of the back room wearing a single coat.
"Little ......" Xia Ye had just shouted a word, she suddenly sensed that something was wrong, and before she could react, a dark shadow rushed to her side and clamped her smooth neck fiercely.
"Don't move!!" a loud shout rang in his ears.
Xia Ye looked at the person in front of her, her panicked expression suddenly calmed down, she wanted to say something to the person in front of her, but her throat was pinched hard by a big hand, so that she couldn't make any sound.
"I advise you not to make any moves, to step back!Far away from me, go back ten steps!" The black shadow that grabbed Summer Night's throat roared loudly at the person in front of Summer Night.
Xie Qingshan looked at the guy dressed in black and captured Xia Ye with a grim face, and regretted a little in his heart, he shouldn't have drunk today, otherwise he wouldn't have let this little thief take advantage of it and kidnap Xia Ye.
"Did you hear me, step back! Twenty steps back!" The man in black fiercely clenched the big hand that grabbed Xia Ye's neck, and threatened Xie Qingshan loudly. Twelve Literary Network
Xie Qingshan looked at Xia Ye's painful expression, and was forced to walk backwards, he threatened the man in black while retreating: "You'd better let her go now, otherwise, you can't afford to bear the consequences!"
The man in black couldn't help but sneer when he heard Xie Qingshan's words: "Can't afford it? It's nothing more than a dead end, do you think I'm afraid of death? If I was afraid of death, I wouldn't have made this trip today!"
Xie Qingshan stretched out his hand and nodded at the man in black, sarcastically mocking him.
The man in black watched Xie Qingshan take twenty steps back, widening the distance between him and himself, and the cold sweat behind his back couldn't help but start falling slowly, and the man in black laughed.
"Sure enough, it's the Great Grandmaster, Wu Liang is quite bloody, and he actually found a Great Grandmaster for Xia Yi as a bodyguard, your realm is not low, right? I calculated the distance and time, but I was almost intercepted by you, and said, are you a third-grade Grand Master or a Fourth-grade Grand Master?!" The man in black glared at Xie Qingshan in the courtyard, and his tone of voice became frivolous and rude.
Xie Qingshan looked at the black-clothed man in front of him coldly, ignoring his question, but asked back coldly: "A little thief, his body is quite fast, he is good at calculation, you dare to break in, and you have been lurking for a long time, right?" can have this patience and ability, there are not many such people in the entire land of China, excluding people outside the Great Shang Dynasty, the vast majority of people who can have this courage and strength in the entire Great Shang Dynasty are in the three major organizations under the Shang Emperor, according to the maximum probability, you are either a tiger guard, or a person who soars to the sky, report your identity, no matter whether you can succeed or not, you can't get out of this courtyard, be happy, let me see who you are. ”
The man in black listened to Xie Qingshan's words and was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "Why did you eliminate the Eagle Guard?!"
Xie Qingshan sneered: "Because it's convenient to cheat you!"
The black-clothed man's body suddenly revealed a sense of anger, his right hand clenched fiercely, and the summer night in front of him suddenly frowned, his face turned red, and he couldn't even hold back a moan in his throat.
Xie Qingshan's face suddenly turned cold, and he said to the man in black seriously: "I advise you not to act so recklessly, I know that you are coming for Xia Yi, I don't say anything nonsense about you letting go of the hostages, I only advise you, don't abuse the hostages, otherwise, you will be worse off than dead!"
Xie Qingshan was also quite worried at this time, if something went wrong in the summer night, Xia Yi would probably go crazy. Xie Qingshan, who was crazy or something, was not afraid, he was afraid that Xia Yi would be dissatisfied with him, and in the end, the relationship between them would break down.
What's more, Xia Ye is so well-behaved, cute, sensible and diligent, she is a little girl who is loved by everyone, Xie Qingshan never wants her to have an accident.
"Life is better than death? Before I came here, I was always in the pain of life being worse than death, do you think I would still be afraid of these threats? Even if I am worse than death, I will pull Xia Yi with me to live and die!"
Xie Qingshan couldn't help frowning when he heard the words of the man in black, which madman did Xia Yi provoke, how could he provoke the other party's crazy revenge? Looking at this person's behavior, listening to what he said, it seemed that he didn't plan to leave alive, was this going to drag people to their deaths?
Xie Qingshan was thinking about the identity of the person in front of him, and the man in black suddenly shouted.
"Where's Xia Yi, Xia Yi, get out of here!!
