Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 56 Moon Black
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and a dark cloud floated from there, covering the bright moon, and the sky and the earth suddenly fell into boundless darkness.

The pitch-black night covered everything, covered Ye Xun's whereabouts, and also covered the whereabouts of others.

Whether it's mind or force, since the time travel, Ye Xun has really never put anyone in his eyes, and those of his subordinates are also from the military. With Ye Xun's backing, killing and setting fire is no problem, but including Ye Including Xun, they all have a common weakness, that is, lack of experience in the world.

Among Ye Xun's subordinates, only Xiang Biao has been in Caomang, but he has been quitting for many years after all. Between him and Altan, Xiang Biao's old acquaintances chose Altan wisely, so the news about him The information had already been delivered to Altan.

Altan was able to stand out among the numerous horse bandits on the grassland, and at the same time was able to retreat from the encirclement and suppression by the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty several times, which showed that he was a cunning and wise man.

Before formulating this assassination plan, Altan first got to know Ye Xun and his subordinates. Although it cannot be said that he has completely mastered everything about Ye Xun, he still knows some basic information about Ye Xun.

This includes the number of guards that Ye Xun brought along on this trip, as well as the troops to be dispatched by the governments along the way to be responsible for the defense, and so on.

In order not to directly conflict with the brigade of the Ming army, but also to ensure the success of the assassination, Altan finally chose to assassinate alone, and set the location of the assassination in Jinzhou City.

Altan knew very well when people were least vigilant, so after settling down, he kept following the movements of Ye Xun and his party.

From this point alone, it is not difficult to see that the vigilance of Ye Xun and his subordinates is still not high enough.

At night, the person in charge of monitoring reported that Ye Xun chased a person out of the rented yard, and he left alone.

Hearing the news, Altan knew that the opportunity had come. Although there were rumors that the eunuch was extremely skilled, Altan felt that he had no intention of doing mental calculations, and that the dozen or so men he brought with him on this trip were all good at assassination. Master, if you still can't kill this little eunuch, then you can only say that this eunuch should die.

After Ye Xun frightened Wang Dengku, he asked him to go back to the rented place by himself, while Ye Xun continued to walk on the roof, monitoring Wang Dengku while continuing to practice his lightness skills.

It's also because Ye Xun has been so smooth since the time travel, that he has already made him not take others seriously.

There is nothing wrong with a man being arrogant, but he will suffer if he is too conceited.

Altan didn't know Ye Xun, and he only knew the general appearance of Ye Xun after hearing the reports from his subordinates.

At this moment, Altan was hiding by the road that Ye Xun had to go back to his residence, and his hiding place also happened to be the roof.

Although the night was dark, Altan and the others clearly saw Ye Xun floating towards him through the faint light.

Although he saw Ye Xun, Altan's heart sank.

Laymen watch the fun, while experts watch the doorway. From Ye Xun's casual figure, Altan knows that he has met a strong enemy today.

How to do?To move or not to move?

After a little hesitation, Altan's eyes became firm, and his hand was quietly placed on the bow of the crossbow.

Seeing that the residence was already in sight, Wang Dengku also walked ahead obediently, and Ye Xun's figure also slowed down.

Feeling the cold wind at night, I looked up at the bright moon covered by dark clouds, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to myself: "The moon is dark and the wind is high, it's really a good day to do bad things."

Speaking of this, I suddenly felt something in my heart. At this moment, after a few crisp sounds, more than a dozen black lines shot towards Ye Xun's body like lightning.

Altan and his subordinates were proficient in the way of assassination. The angles shot by these dozens of crossbow arrows not only included Ye Xun's upper, middle and lower paths, but even blocked Ye Xun's retreat.

Ye Xun reacted very quickly, and instantly felt the danger brought by the crossbow arrows. Although his figure was fast, he was not confident enough to think that he could easily dodge the lasing crossbow arrows.

It is not difficult to tell from the sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the wind that no matter which direction Ye Xun hides in, there will always be crossbow arrows following him.

Ye Xun has also seen the big world, and he found a way to crack it in an instant.

With a little force on his feet, he fell down in an instant, but it turned out that Ye Xun had stepped on a big hole in the roof under his feet. When he fell in, more than a dozen crossbow arrows also shot past.

Fortunately, the place where Ye Xun fell was the family's stove, if it fell on the Kang, it would be broken.

As the roof ruptured, everyone in the room was alarmed. Some people shouted in horror what happened, and then someone lit the oil lamp.

Ye Xun really wanted to remind the head of the family not to light the lamp, but he didn't dare to move, and there was no movement outside except for the crossbow arrows shot before.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xun's heart also sank. He is not afraid of someone being assassinated. He really doesn't care about who comes, but he is afraid that it will be so silent that it will be hard to guard against.

Ye Xun knew that people outside must be waiting too. Once the head of this family came over with a light on, he and the head of the family would become the targets of those assassins.

"If you don't want to die, don't light the lamp, find a cabinet to hide"

That's all Ye Xun can do now. In this critical moment, he is not great enough to sacrifice himself to save others.

The householder in the house also seemed to smell the danger, but he really didn't turn on the lamp, and after a few soft rustlings, there was no more movement, and he didn't know if he really hid.

The world seemed to suddenly quiet down at this moment, there were no shouts of killing, let alone calls for help.

After the shock and anger, Ye Xun calmed down instead. He can now be sure that there are not many assassins, and he doesn't dare to make too much noise, otherwise his subordinates and the garrison in the city will be alarmed.

It's a pity that Ye Xun made a mistake again this time. Just as he was thinking about how to escape, there was a flash of fire outside, and then a ignited rocket shot in, followed by the second and third.
Although winter has passed by this time, the weather is still very cold, and every household is still covered with quilts.

The flaming arrow landed on the quilt, and the quilt was ignited in a blink of an eye. As the rockets continued to shoot in, the fire gradually increased. Accompanied by thick smoke, the fire soon filled the entire room.

Ye Xun knew that it would be impossible not to go out, otherwise he would be smoked to death if he was not burned to death.

In fact, Ye Xun had already thought of a way to get out just now, but he just wanted to wait, is it Ye Xun's character to come and not go?The consciousness that assassinating others will be killed, and Ye Xun still needs to find out who is behind the scenes.

Just as he was about to go out in a wild way, Ye Xun suddenly remembered that there was someone else in the room. After such a long time of silence, could it be that he was fainted by the smoke?

Ye Xun is not a moralist, so if he escapes alone at this time, he will not have any psychological burden later.

Just when he was about to leave, Ye Xun stopped in his tracks, sighed slightly, turned around and went into the back room.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the scene in the room could be seen at a glance, but there was no other furniture in the room except a kang and a low wooden square table, and the head of the household who had just returned to the room had disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xun couldn't help being stunned. It couldn't be more obvious that there must be another passage in this room.

It's just ordinary people, who would open a secret passage in their own house?
