Assassins Guild

Chapter 27



Outside Gaocheng, weeds are everywhere. It's past the autumn harvest, and the field is overgrown with weeds. The setting sun reflects the withered grass, which makes people's heart lonely.

Yu Ji gently stroked the feather soft sword in her arms, her thin figure hanging in the afterglow of the setting sun.

She is waiting for Xiang Yu's return.

The sinister Liu Bang carried away all the grain in Gaocheng long before Xiang Yu came in. The soldiers and people in Gaocheng had to go out to look for food. Now, Liu Bang is shrinking in Guangwu mountain, like a squirrel with rich food for the winter. He didn't want to beat Xiang Yu in the battlefield at all. Liu Bang's idea is very simple, that is, no matter what, he can't have nothing to eat.

In the distance, smoke and dust were everywhere.

Yu Ji takes her eyes back from the sword in her arms and looks up. The dark troops in the distance make her feel surging.

Xiang Yu's face is gloomy. He went to punish Liu Bang today, but he didn't expect that he could not get out of the mountain. No matter how he fought, it didn't work.

"Rat Xiang Yu's teeth itch with hatred.

Close, Yu Ji micro squints her eyes, she can already vaguely distinguish Xiang Yu's figure. In fact, it's too easy to distinguish Xiang Yu. That's the tallest one in the Chu army.

At this time, Xiang Yu also saw the snow-white on the roadside in the distance. He couldn't help but drink lightly and gallop towards Yu Ji. I don't know why, whenever he saw the weak body, even if he was upset, he would suddenly become quiet. It's not so much Xiang Yu's tenderness to Yu Ji as it's Yu Ji's tenderness that melts Xiang Yu like steel.

The girl slightly side to the side, wuzhuima very meekly standing on the side, Xiang Yu did not dismount, but sat on the horse and said hello to Yu Ji.

"Did the king catch that Liu Bang?" Yu Ji's eyes blinked.

"No, he won't come out to fight. It's a turtle. " Xiang Yu said angrily, but there was not a trace of anger in his tone.

Yu Ji chuckled and thought to herself, "is the king of Han such a person?"

At this time, the troops behind catch up. Xiang Yu looks back and raises his right hand. After seeing Xiang Yu's movements, all the soldiers took off their clothes on their right shoulders, showed their arms and raised their right hands.

"Big Chu!" Even Liu Bang, who was hiding on Guangwu mountain, could hear the earth shaking roar.

Only Xiang Yu's Chu army could be so powerful.

Xiang Yu nodded, for this kind of performance he is more satisfied. When the soldiers of Chu army saw Xiang Yu and Yu Ji together, they would smile sincerely. In their eyes, only this woman is worthy of their Xiang Wang!

"I'm going to take a detour to shangguangwu mountain." Xiang Yu seems to be talking to himself. He wants to talk to Yu Ji.

Yu Ji doesn't speak, but looks at Xiang Yu gently.

"I'll probably be back in a few months." Xiang Yu's eyes somehow became hot.

Yu Ji's face suddenly turned red, and then she gave a gentle "um".

Xiang Yu didn't wait for her to say more, so he galloped to the camp. He wanted to organize an army to attack Guangwu mountain immediately. He didn't want to wait any longer.

Yu Ji has become more and more attractive to him.

The night in Guangwu mountain is long and lonely.

Xiang Yu sleeps in the camp on the mountain, while Yu Ji sleeps on the cold moon of Gaocheng. The two men and women in love are waiting for each other alone, far or near.

There is no Xiang Yu beside the pillow, only the lonely Yu roujian lying on his side, reflecting the cold moonlight. Concubine Yu was lying on her side, her head resting on her left arm, her right hand caressing the blue sword handle.

"I can't hear the cry of killing. There's peace on Guangwu mountain." Yu Ji lowered her eyelids lazily, but her mind was especially sober.

I don't know why. Since she got the sword, Yu Ji's sleep has become less and less. As if as long as you close your eyes and then open them, all the fatigue will disappear.

"Is it because of you?" Yu Ji said to the air in front of her, her right hand rubbing the feather soft sword.

The night is very quiet, quiet as if not angry.

Yu Ji suddenly sat up and gazed out of the window.

"What a strange feeling." Yu Ji's heart suddenly had a trace of fear. It was too quiet around, just like everything was fake. The moonlight, the shadow of the trees, everything is just like in a dream. It's no longer real.

"Hiss." A light ring surprised Yu Jimu.

"Who?" Concubine Yu is uneasy. It's so late, Xiaolian and they should all go to bed.

The girl got up, arranged her clothes and came to the door gently. She slowly opened a small crack in the door and peered out.

"No one?" Yu Ji looked at the empty yard and felt strange.

"Maybe it's small animals or something." She said to herself, closing the door.

"Cough." A light cough stopped Yu Ji. She suddenly turned back and found that there was one more person in the empty yard.This sudden change startled Yu Ji. She could not help covering her mouth with her hands and almost screamed. However, concubine Yu finally calmed down. Although she was usually delicate and shy, she had been through life and death since she was a child. In fact, she was quite tough. Although the scene in front of us is strange, we can't scare Yu Ji.

"Who and where?" Yu Ji's voice more or less trembled, although she had tried her best to control herself and calm herself down. But the uneasy mood is all the time enveloping her, and suddenly appears in the middle of the night, which is bound to be bad.

The figure did not answer, but observed the woman in front of her with great interest.

Yu Ji frowned and her heart sank again.

"Who is coming in the middle of the night? If you don't speak any more, I'm going to cry. " Yu Ji deliberately raised her voice to make Xiao Lian, who was sleeping in the room opposite the corner, hear.

The figure was not moved, but slowly took two steps forward.

Yu Ji quickly stepped back and yelled, "stop! Somebody! Come on

"No one will hear you. Don't waste your time." The stranger in the yard opened his mouth. He was standing in the middle of the patio, and the moon shone on his figure clearly.

This is a thin man, lower than Yu Ji. His face is white and looks a little weak. Such an ordinary, even some weak man made Yu Ji have a little fear in her heart. Her intuition told her that the man in front of her was very dangerous!

"Beauty Yu doesn't have to panic. I don't mean to come here this time." The man said, but there was no expression on his face.

"First of all, I'd like to introduce myself to you. I'm Zhang Liang, who is the king of Han Dynasty, Liu Bang. I'm a small military adviser." The man said slowly, still without expression on his face. On the contrary, Yu Ji's eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief.

"Isn't the king of Han on Guangwu mountain now? Since he was the commander of the king of Han Dynasty, why didn't he stay in the army and come to Gaocheng in the middle of the night? " Concubine Yu's mind turned, and she thought about the purpose of the comer in her mind.

"There's no need to doubt that Yu Meiren's visit in the second half of the night is not for Xiang Yu, but to confirm something." Zhang Liang's voice seemed to float in the air.

"Confirm what?" Yu Ji can't help but ask. The man named Zhang Liang is really a little puzzling.

Zhang Liang was not in a hurry to answer Yu Ji's question, but carefully looked at the woman in front of him, then nodded and said, "yes, it's a very plastic brain wave."

Yu Ji didn't understand what Zhang Liang was saying, but she keenly felt that this person must have bad intentions. I don't know what he did to the soldiers in charge of the guard and the maids in other rooms, but no matter what his purpose is, he must not be allowed to succeed.

Yu Ji slowly retreats into the door, suddenly turns around and rushes to her pillow to pick up Yu Rou sword. Then she lifts the sword to her chest and stares at the door.

Time went by, but the moon was still shining and the shadow of the tree was as usual.

Different from Yu Ji's expectation, Zhang Liang didn't step into the house and didn't make any more noise.

Concubine Yu moved her steps slowly and walked towards the door.

"Why? What about people? " Looking at the empty yard, Yu Ji was surprised.

"Just gone?" Yu Ji carried her sword around the yard two times. She couldn't believe it.

"Are you dreaming?" Yu Ji touched her face and then pinched her arm.

"Hiss, it hurts." The girl was pinched by herself and said with a grin.

Yu Ji rushed to the side room to wake up the sleeping maid. The maid was sleepy and didn't know what beauty Yu was up in the middle of the night. But when she saw the sword in Yu Ji's hand, she was startled and sleepy.

"Xiaolian, just now a man who claimed to be the military adviser of the king of Han broke in. Did you hear anything?" Yu Ji asked anxiously. To tell the truth, when she saw the maids sleeping there safe and sound, she was relieved. She has been worried that Xiaolian and they will be killed by the man named Zhang Liang just now.

"King of the Han Dynasty?" Xiaolian widens her eyes and looks around in fear. Then she wakes up the two maids beside her and asks them to inform the commander in charge of the guard.

The commander rushed in with more than a dozen guards, searched up and down, and found no one. The man named Zhang Liang seems to have disappeared out of thin air. There is no trace of him. Even there is no smell left in the air.

"Really nothing?" Some of Yu Ji can't set channel.

"I've looked up and down in the camp, and I haven't found any suspicious people. Gaocheng's gate is closed. His subordinates have ordered the whole city to search. Once they find it, they will catch it immediately. " Wu said in a straight line. Who doesn't know Xiang Yu's love for Yu Ji? If Yu Ji has a mistake, Xiang Yu must throw him into the oil pan and fry him. The commander did not dare to be slighted. He immediately used all the garrison forces to search the whole city."Just strengthen the guard. There's no need to search the whole city. Let the soldiers rest." Concubine Yu had recovered from her panic, and she was calm again. Xiang Yu has always been considerate of his subordinates. Naturally, Yu Ji is not bad. Wu Chang is grateful. After thanking him, he retreats.

"Xiaolian, can you send a letter to Xiang Wang on Guangwu mountain for me?" Yu Ji took the hand of the maid beside her and said eagerly.
