After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of Hunjun

Chapter 405 Enemies meet on a narrow road
After confirming that there was no problem, Chu Nianshan knocked on the door twice.

He still remembered Lin Zhiyu's embarrassed and angry look when he accidentally broke in last time.

"Enter."

Chu Nianshan pushed the door open and went in.

Lin Zhiyu was sitting in front of the table, chewing on the tip of his pen, and was lost in thought. There was a draft on the table, looking like he was calculating the total amount of food.

"I just heard you stood outside for a while before coming in."

Lin Zhiyu put down his pen and looked up at him: "Did something happen?"

In this year of life, Lin Zhiyu has become accustomed to maintaining a high degree of vigilance at all times.

A trace of distress flashed across Chu Nianshan's eyes, and then regret struck his heart.

If she had paid attention earlier, wouldn't she have had to live so tiringly?
"It's nothing." He said, "I just saw a mouse and was afraid it would come in when the door opened."

Not wanting her to worry too much, Chu Nianshan hid the house number.

What if he was overthinking it?

After a long journey, she should take a good rest.

After the matter was dealt with, the next step was to sleep. Chu Nianshan hesitated for a long time, not knowing how to speak.

It was Lin Zhiyu who was the first to speak out: "I'll ask the waiter to bring up another quilt. I'll sleep on the floor."

"No." Chu Nianshan objected, "If there is an arrow shooting in from outside, the bed is the safest."

Lin Zhiyu looked at the small and pitiful bed, and his face turned red.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Chu Nianshan, but he was used to sleeping alone. Suddenly there was another person next to him, and he always felt that something was wrong.

Chu Nianshan thought for a while and then said: "I sleep outside. If something happens, I can still block it for you."

Lin Zhiyu touched his hot face, closed his eyes and rolled on the bed.

Chu Nianshan was not in a hurry to rest. He blew out the other flickering candles, leaving only the one that was about to burn out on the table. He took out the handkerchief and carefully wiped the sword he carried with him.

The weak candlelight swayed in the night, with a hint of intoxicating warmth, reflecting on Chu Nianshan's profile.

Lin Zhiyu secretly watched his movements and expressions through the curtain, and the image of Chu Nianshan putting a cloak on the little boy appeared in her mind.

What a complicated person.

Lin Zhiyu thought.

Unconsciously, it was already half way through the night, and the sound of the woman's gentle and shallow breathing could be heard from the bed, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep.

At this time, Chu Nianshan walked over gently and tucked her into bed.

Only when she was asleep, her face would not show such strong guard, and she would just lie there quietly, giving people a natural desire to protect her.

Lin Zhiyu was sleeping lightly. She felt Chu Nianshan's movements and opened her sleepy eyes.

"you……"

Chu Nianshan's face suddenly darkened and he made a silent gesture to her.

In the lobby on the first floor, several people dressed as bandits came in quietly, with a chill surrounding them.

There were a few people in the lobby who couldn't afford the room fee and were slumped on a few benches. One of them felt something moving. As soon as he sat up, a cold sword was placed on his neck.

The idle waiter behind the counter had not slept at all, but when he saw someone coming, he sat up straight.

"Ding Mao." He gestured.

Several people put away their swords and walked upstairs.

The old wooden boards in disrepair made a creaking sound. The other tenants thought they were just guests at night and turned over. But after a while, there was a loud noise from the fourth floor.

"Whoosh-"

The sound of sharp arrows piercing the air came from outside, followed by dense footsteps.

But he wasn't coming for them. From the sound, he was going to the next room.

Chu Nianshan picked up the sword on the table and stood in front of Lin Zhiyu.

Lin Zhiyu didn't dare to say anything, quickly put on his coat and sat up. Are they forced refugees with no way out, or Qin Xiao's people?

If it was Qin Xiao's person, how did she know she was here?

In the next room, there was an angry shout: "What are you doing? You are going to the wrong place!"

Is it Lin Minghua's voice?
Lin Zhiyu's eyes darkened a bit.

It’s really a narrow road between enemies.

No, since she is here, is Zhou Zijin also there?
As soon as Lin Zhiyu got out of bed, she heard a male voice say: "Why is she alone? Search each room!"

With a bang, a large hole was opened in the wooden wall, and a man who looked like a bandit rolled to the ground.

On the other side were Lin Minghua, who was pale in beauty, and Zhou Zijin, who was gloomy.

Seeing Lin Zhiyu, Lin Minghua first had a look of doubt on his face, and then a hint of ruthlessness appeared on his face.

"Husband, it must be her. She couldn't deceive you, so she bribed the killer and wanted to strike first."

No matter what, tonight, she must die.

Zhou Zijin obviously also saw Lin Zhiyu, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

This doubt has already been mixed with suspicion.

After all, they just said they would never see each other again yesterday, and today they met again in the inn and were assassinated.

Is it her?
The man on the ground frowned when he saw that there was also a man and a woman in this room. Then he immediately got up from the ground and stabbed Lin Zhiyu.

"Take them down too!"

One of them shouted.

Chu Nianshan quickly stepped forward and protected Lin Zhiyu behind him. His sharp sword style made people dare not take a step closer. There were several others who were going back and forth with Zhou Zijin, killing each other with every move.

An assassin saw Lin Minghua lagging behind alone and stabbed her without thinking.

Lin Minghua was shocked. He took off the hairpin on his head as a defense and waved it in front of the assassin's eyes.

The assassin paused, his eyes fell on the hairpin, and he made a gesture to his companion.

But in an instant, the assassins all headed towards Lin Zhiyu.

"oops!"

Lin Minghua pretended to be frightened by the assassin, pounced in Lin Zhiyu's direction, and pushed her in front of Chu Nianshan, clearly exposed in front of the assassin's eyes.

"careful!"

Chu Nianshan waved his sword to break through an assassin's entanglement and wanted to run towards Lin Zhiyu.

"Stop him and kill that woman first!" one person shouted.

After hearing the instructions, another person jumped on him and blocked Chu Nianshan's way.

Lin Zhiyu staggered, and before she could react, a sword struck her in the face.

"Pfft!"

Lin Zhiyu felt something splattered on his face. He raised his hand and touched it, and it was blood.

Something soft but hard hit the ground. It was the assassin's right hand, which still retained the last movement of holding the sword.

who is it?

Lin Zhiyu had no time to react, and a light blue figure stood in front of her.

The dark cloud patterns on the sleeves flowed, piercing everyone's eyes.

"Zhou Zijin?" Lin Zhiyu shouted softly.

how come?
Lin Minghua was also stunned.

Obviously from his perspective, Lin Zhiyu was the one who wanted to kill him.

Zhou Zijin swung his sword to block another attack, but his mind went blank.

What were you doing just now?
