Chapter 74
"There's someone!" The people around Ming Jin were startled. Ming Jin had already seen a blood-red shadow floating across the sparse metasequoia in the lake.
A glimpse of Qinggong and the floating light of Uesugi.
What a light effort that is.
When they discovered this man, he had already crossed more than half of the lake. Yu Mingjin caught his eye and saw him standing on a tall tree seven to eight feet away like a ghost.
He wears blood-stained clothes, black boots, and a wide black belt with many outer buckles. Exquisite hidden blades are inserted into the outer buckles, making his belt look like a piece of silver maple snakewood.
It's the hidden weapon.
"It's actually Mr. Red Snake Man."
When Ming Jin heard the nervous voice of the guard behind her, she raised her eyebrows and only gave her subordinate a look.
The King of Banquets who fell on the ground was not sure whether he was alive or dead, but that didn't stop his subordinates from taking another blow, but...
"I advise you not to move, otherwise my maple leaf will fall on the heart of that delicate beauty."
Ming Jin has always known that the secret guards or bodyguards of the Xie family, the personal guards of the clan, the guards of various aristocratic families, and the imperial army all fall within the scope of the imperial power.
The court is the court, and the rivers and lakes are the rivers and lakes.
The Red Snake Man is the power of the world.
As soon as he appeared, things expanded and became even more complicated.
Ming Jin knew that these subordinates would not be able to stop the snake leaf, and if they wanted to give King Yan a last blow, her life would be the price.
There was no need to hesitate, she raised her hand slightly.
The people retreated, and the Red Snake Man flew down, picked up the bleeding corpse, and grinned at Ming Jin.
"That's really smart. I like you very much. We will meet again in the future."
People are gone.
Ming Jin watched them leave with cold eyes until no shadow could be seen.
The six guards were more nervous than before, looking at the men in black who were gradually approaching.
The man in black killed the man in black. Although he was also controlled by the girl, it was obviously not a force under their Ye family.
Moreover, if the other party is surrounding and approaching like this, it seems that... it is possible to kill and silence them.
The six guards heard Ming Jin's words in dead silence.
"I left today because of my personal behavior, which may have violated my father's orders. However, you did not stop me and allowed me to almost die at the hands of this gang of thugs. This is a dereliction of duty. If I go back and let him know... you will suffer the consequences."
What kind of punishment?"
"girl...."
"If you don't mention anything, it'll be fine."
The six people looked at each other and finally bowed their heads in salute.
"The girl is right, but they..."
Five meters away, Ming Jin raised his hand and waved it lightly, and the man in black turned around and stepped back into the forest.
In front of the tomb, Ming Jin stood alone, saying nothing, and no one else could see her expression. It took a long time, until it got dark, that she turned around and walked out.
"Girl, it's getting dark. If we go back to the city now..."
"Then we won't go back and will stay here all night."
————————
A house in the village was warmed by candlelight, and there were guards patrolling the house outside. Inside, the old woman in the village was preparing food for Ming Jin.
"Thank you, girl, you haven't been here for many years."
"Does your mother-in-law miss me?"
"I've thought about it for a while. Girl, please eat first, and I'll cook some more vegetables."
"No, that's enough. Mother-in-law, please give some food to those people outside. I don't have to worry about it. By the way, let them go to the next room to eat."
The mother-in-law agreed and closed the door.
But she had some doubts in her heart. She knew the girl's appetite. Her appetite was very small before. Even though she has grown up now, it is still not big enough to eat two bowls of rice at a time.
It was cold and windy outside, but warm on the kang inside the house. Ming Jin was eating farm food that was absolutely incomparable to Xie's family. His eyebrows were silent and he only glanced at the bowl of rice on the opposite side from time to time.
Until suddenly I heard a cold sound.
"I've only been to people's graves, so my appetite is so good."
What a lonely sound this is.
The finish is full of chilly air.
There was a pause in the movement of lifting chopsticks, and Ming Jin raised his eyes to look at a silhouette under the moon outside the window in front of him.
She looked at it steadily and said: "The door is unlocked. You can come in, but don't break the window. It's not easy for an old lady to repair the window."
The door opened, and the other party came in. He was dressed in pure black kendo uniforms, with a long sword in his hand, cold and elegant, and extremely sharp.
Ming Jin quietly watched her appearance and suddenly smiled.
"You obviously belong to a well-known and decent family, but you are dressed in black. Those who don't know better think you are a cult."
"Azhen, what you disliked the most before was black."
Yan Zhen stood outside the door, lowered her eyes after hearing the words, and raised her sword. The sword tassel was a delicate silver chain, sliding gently on her fingertips.
"My name is not Yan Zhen now, thank you Miss Second."
"After all, Yan Zhen is a remnant of a criminal. If he is caught, he will go to jail, or..."
She raised her eyes and smiled slightly, "Just like our good sister Zhu'er, she was sent to Shuiyue Tower of Guanqiyuan."
Ming Jin put down his chopsticks and said calmly: "Just to hurt me, you didn't hesitate to mention Zhu'er. You clearly think I'm not worthy."
Yan Zhen narrowed her eyes and slid her fingers from the sword spike to the hilt.
"If the deceased has a spirit, you should know to avoid taboos, but everyone is dead, otherwise you wouldn't lead King Yan's messy people here to kill, and you don't think it's dirty... Contain the body, erect a monument and bury it, Xie Mingjin
, is it actually easy to be moved and forgive yourself?"
Ming Jin was silent for a moment and said, "I don't know if you believe it or not, but during the Huai Geng incident, King Yan was also involved."
Yan Zhen frowned, "Are you trying to shirk the crime for your father?"
"No, I'm reminding you that if you follow me here, you are either investigating me or King Yan. I have Xie Yuan behind me, and there are people behind him. Rather than letting you take risks, it's better for me to tell you directly.
After so many years of not seeing each other, you won’t become more and more stupid, right?”
"Azhen, there is no need to seek death in front of them before you are sure to kill me."
Keng!!
The sword was unsheathed, and the blade was pointed directly at Ming Jin.
"You want me to try?"
The sword of Autumn Water Changhong is a lonely and ruthless female swordsman. The moonlight is cold and thin, and it means killing.
Ming Jin felt that she really wanted to kill him.
"I know you have your heart."
"But you didn't come alone."
Yan Zhen turned around and saw that the young man standing guard for him outside had been surrounded.
There were more than six guards at all, and the extra ones appeared from nowhere.
By the way, in the village!
There are already people buried in the village!
Yan Zhen turned her face, expressionless: "You are not only waiting for the King of Banquets, but also me."
The King of Banquet came for Xie Mingjin, and she was out of the surveillance of the person she arranged early in the morning. She was sure that she would come to the capital and would definitely follow her, so...
She still underestimated how cunning this woman was, thinking that when the mysterious man retreated, her six guards would not be able to stop her, but she did not expect that there were more than six guards around him.
Ming Jin: "Not long ago, my father asked me if I could see the person in the Yan family. You also know that he is a rare bad guy in the world. For the sake of the lives of your Yan family, you should stay away from the situation and stay in the safest position.
."
She looked at Yan Zhen and said gently: "Jiang Hu, do you feel bad?"
Yan Zhen remained silent for a moment, sheathed her sword decisively, and dropped a sentence when she turned around.
"At this point, even if Pearl has a spirit, she won't want to eat with you, so why waste food."
She led the young man into the night, and the cold wind from outside poured in, making the already cold bowl of rice on the other side of the table even colder.
Ming Jin held his cheek with one hand, and some voices came to his mind.
"If you don't want to eat, I won't eat. There's meat on my stomach."
"If you don't eat now and eat snacks when you're hungry, won't you get fat? You're all going to gain weight anyway. It's healthier to eat."
"Ajin! Can you speak human language? I'm so angry!"
"Haha, don't be afraid, Zhu'er, I'll share a bowl with you and let Ah Jin gain weight alone."
