Chapter 573 Fengyue
night.
The moonlight like water caresses the pines, and the clear stream flows between the pools.
The milky white cobblestones are paved in the courtyard according to specific rules, and the grass around the small courtyard is desolate, with a different kind of elegance and style.
This is a Japanese-style exquisite small courtyard.
Under the caress of the moonlight, a girl in an elegant black kimono is stroking the pages of a book in the moonlight.
"rustle."
"rustle."
The girl flipped the pages of the book lightly, her eyebrows furrowed.
The night wind blows the fallen leaves in the forest, making a soft rustling sound.
Comparing with her demeanor at this time, there is an indescribable tranquility of time.
a long time.
The girl suddenly sighed in a low voice: "It's another tragedy, alas..."
She gently put down the book, seeming a little distressed.
Just when I was about to sit up, I found that my legs were numb after lying down for a long time.
"bell……"
He opened his mouth to call the maidservant, but suddenly, a black shadow fell down, and on the spot, the girl hissed and screamed: "Ah!!!!"
The peaceful picture of the years was destroyed on the spot.
Accompanied by the sound of footsteps of "kick", "kick", "kick", a large number of people poured in from the small courtyard.
"Miss!"
"Master Yue Ji!"
"What happened!"
"Protect Lord Yue Ji!"
Maids, servants, warriors with knives, and archers with arrows all appeared in the courtyard, guarding the girls in the middle.
But the girl covered her mouth lightly, pointing at a place in the courtyard with trembling jade fingers: "That, that, that...there..."
"Um?!"
The warriors surrounded the small courtyard heavily, but no enemy was found.
Just about to be surprised, seeing my young master pointing his finger at something, he immediately looked in the direction of the fingertip.
But I saw that in the grass in the courtyard, at some point, there was an extra person.
With a thin body and a knife on his waist, he looks like a warrior, but the clothes... look a little weird.
The leading guard captain gestured behind him. Immediately, all the guards maintained their formation and pressed heavily on him.
The small courtyard suddenly became a little lively.
It stands to reason that the assassin who broke in suddenly after being surrounded heavily should have realized something.
However, what was strange was that from the very beginning until now, the assassin had maintained a single posture, motionless, as if... half dead.
The captain of the guard frowned.
Because the person was facing down and fell upside down, for a while, the captain of the guard couldn't see the person's true face clearly.
However, he was also very careful.
Looking around, he nodded to his brothers. Immediately, he slowly drew out the samurai sword from his waist, and walked steadily towards the assassin step by step.
"Hey!"
Come within ten steps of the assassin, the other party did not respond.
"Hey!"
He came within five steps of the assassin, but the opponent still did not respond.
The captain of the guard looked even more serious.
He stabbed the opponent with a knife and found that the opponent was still motionless.
This time, the captain couldn't bear it anymore, stepped forward and turned the opponent over.
"Oh hoo!"
The crowd exclaimed.
Mainly the maidservant, and the girl who was peeping her head and looking this way were exclaiming, but the guards were very calm.
"died?"
The captain of the guard frowned. Just as he was about to say something, several people approached him, "This man...is seriously injured."
"Look at his arm, the flesh and blood are split."
"There are bloodstains on the eyes, nose, and ears, and there is such a big pool of blood on the chest, I think I will not be able to survive."
"Is this guy an assassin? Who hurt him?"
"No, isn't this the inner courtyard of His Royal Highness Yueji? How did this assassin appear here without a sound, and lie here in this dying position?"
"Captain, this matter... is weird."
A group of people analyzed it.
Soon they looked at each other.
Things... are indeed unusual.
Mainly, this is the territory of the Wano country Baimai daimyo, the Fuzuki family.
With the strength of the Fengyue family, not to mention assassins, ordinary thieves who dare to break in will end up with their legs broken after five steps of entry.
Not to mention, at this moment, the place where they are standing is the small courtyard of the princess of the Fengyue family, Mrs. Yueji.
This courtyard is located in the backyard of the family territory. It can be said that if there are assassins here, Fengyue's family will not be far from extermination.
Because no one can call here.
For the assassin to break through here, it means that the defenders, officers, soldiers, and retainers in front have all been killed.
Moreover, it is strange to say that this person was able to suffer such serious injuries, obviously after a great battle.
But just now... there was a sound? !
Or, before Master Yueji screamed, the entire Fengyue family... had other visions? !
No.
Not at all.
Except for Master Yueji's scream, the entire territory of the Fengyue family was shrouded in the silent moonlight, and it was quiet.
So, what's going on here?
In other words, how did this guy in front of him break through to Lord Yueji's small courtyard and scare Lord Yueji when he was seriously injured?
Is there an internal response?
Or in the yard, whose inexplicable prank? !
The captain of the guard looked at Yue Ji, "Master Yue Ji?"
"Eh?" Feng Yueyue Ji was watching curiously, when she heard a voice suddenly, she was startled.
The leader of the guard repeatedly apologized, and then said: "Your Highness, how did this person... come here?!"
"how did it get here?"
Feng Yueyue Ji thought for a while, "It seems...it fell from the sky."
"It fell from the sky?!" The leader of the guard was stunned, and then he blinked, "Your Highness, are you kidding me?"
The rest of the people also looked at each other in blank dismay.
It fell from the sky?What nonsense is Master Yueji talking about?
How could a person... fall from the sky? !
"seems like it."
Feng Yueyue Ji recalled it for a while, then covered her mouth with the wide sleeves of her kimono, and said in a low voice, "I was just reading a book here, and this man fell from the sky with no warning. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so surprised."
"Ah this..."
The guard leader didn't know what to say for a while.
He lowered his head to look at the blood-soaked assassin, and then at Lord Yueji. After a while, he shook his head, "Forget it, since he entered without invitation, he will be dealt with as an assassin. Who..."
Just as he was about to speak, suddenly, there was a burst of exclamation from the crowd.
"Moved!"
"Hey, look, are this man's fingers moving!"
"not dead!"
"My God, is he still alive after suffering such a serious injury? What kind of vitality is this?"
A group of people looked at each other.
"What should I do now? If I die, I can take it out and send it to the mass grave. What if I'm not dead? Also send it to the mass grave?"
A group of people turned their heads and looked at their captain.
The guard leader frowned.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Feng Yueyue Ji's voice from over there: "Summon the medical staff and bring the person back to life."
Next to him, the little maid muttered in a low voice: "This assassin looks really good-looking..."
