C60 Dark guard
Feng Haoxuan squinted his eyes, and then used a killing move, who knew that the black robed man's martial arts was not bad, not only did he dodge it unharmed, he even used a backhand blade to slash at's face.
Originally, Luo Mingshi went back to her room in order to lure the guard out. She already knew that the guard would not come out no matter what, and only when she was in danger did she come out. When she was alone, she suddenly fell down without a sound, and adjusted her breathing to slow down, pretending to be unconscious.
But Luo Mingshi who had good hearing still noticed it, her martial arts was good and she had been protecting Luo Mingshi from the shadows all this while. When the hidden guard noticed Luo Mingshi standing up and turning around to look at him with a smile, a killing move came from her back, and luckily, he was nimble enough to barely dodge it.
Seeing that the two of them were already exchanging blows, Luo Mingshi frowned, what was going on, why was Feng Haoxuan interfering now? However, she still just watched and didn't have any intention of stopping.
He did not know the martial arts of the hidden guards, letting Feng Haoxuan try it out was not a bad idea.
Besides, even someone like Luo Mingshi, who didn't know any martial arts, could see that after the first killing move, the guard had been on the defensive. Would a normal person only defend against someone who wanted to kill him? Thus, Luo Mingshi knew that these dark guards had been keeping an eye on her, and thus knew that Feng Haoxuan was on their side. That was why she didn't want to act.
After a long while, the two of them both retreated. On one side, they glared at each other, and the guard turned to see Luo Mingshi sitting there drinking her tea. She knew that Luo Mingshi was fine and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, someone was faster than him, and before he could make a move, Luo Mingshi had already seen through his intentions, and shouted loudly: "Capture him!" She pointed her finger straight at the Dark Guard.
Before Feng Haoxuan could react, his hands and feet had already moved, and with a stride, he caught the unsuspecting hidden guard.
Feng Haoxuan's heart was in a mess, before he could even react, Luo Mingshi had already subconsciously said and done what he wanted, was that really okay?
However, this was the first time Luo Mingshi had spoken to him in a long time, ignoring him. Even though it was an order, it was still considered speaking right and wrong, so Feng Haoxuan comforted him with this in his heart. As to who he was grabbing, he had no interest at all.
Feng Haoxuan felt that the person in his hands was struggling a bit, hence he grabbed even tighter. This was the first time he had done something like this, he definitely could not disappoint Little Shi, and the more he thought about it, the more his grip tightened, which was already way beyond what an ordinary person could endure.
It was only until that person finally could not hold back and let out two sounds of kindness that Luo Mingshi also noticed it. She quickly said, "Feng Haoxuan, you want to pinch my secret guard to death?"
What secret guard? Hearing that Luo Mingshi was angry at him again, Feng Haoxuan was startled, and quickly reacted and let go of her hands. She unconsciously took a step back to show her innocence. Feng Haoxuan then looked over to the man, only then did she realize, there was someone following Luo Mingshi, but they did not have any evil intentions, so it was this person.
When Luo Mingshi saw the red handprint on the hidden guard's wrist, she was already a little angry, but in her heart, she could not help but feel anger, this disgraceful Feng Haoxuan, had used a lot of strength to die, and her eyes seemed to spew fire at the main culprit.
Obviously, Feng Haoxuan saw it himself, and said unhappily: "I suddenly remember that I have some matters to attend to, you two chat first, I'll be leaving first." With that, he slipped away and jumped out of the window again.
The hidden guard saw that Feng Haoxuan still wanted to run away, but Luo Mingshi's voice sounded out, "Wherever you can run to, you have to stay by my side to protect me. If you run once, I'll let him catch you again."
As if he felt that Luo Mingshi's words made sense, the hidden guard still stood there quietly and didn't make a move.
Luo Mingshi then asked, "You have been watching me from the shadows, right?"
Seeing that the guard did not answer, Luo Mingshi frowned and said: "Although your duty is to protect me from getting hurt, but is there a rule saying that you are not allowed to answer me?"
Luo Mingshi waited for a long time, thinking that the hidden guard would not say anything, but just as she was about to give up, she heard a low and hoarse voice: "No."
Luo Mingshi secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It was good to be able to communicate, and it was also a chance to understand her opponent, otherwise, it would just be like an iron plate.
Yes, Luo Mingshi had already treated the Dark Guard as an opponent, and capturing this powerful opponent was her goal.
Luo Mingshi revealed a meter long smile and asked the question she had wanted to ask initially, "Then when you were staring at me today, did you see any surrounding people or scouts?"
It was the raspy voice again. "Scouts."
Scouts? What do you mean, a spy? Luo Mingshi had to confirm again: "You mean, there really is a spy?"
The man said again, "Yes."
Luo Mingshi was speechless, she had never seen anyone speak in such a concise manner, not willing to speak at all.
But before he could finish asking, how could Luo Mingshi give up?
He asked again: "Did the scout leave? And when did you leave? "
That person replied again, "I'll leave shortly after."
Thirty seconds later? When?
Right now, it was not even forty percent of the time. If it wasn't that quarter of an hour, then that spy had just left, so it just so happened that she and Uncle Luo had left after saying those words to each other.
Luo Mingshi could not help but feel helpless, wouldn't it be fine for him to say that the spy left after she finished chatting with Uncle Luo?
But from the looks of it, that spy was most likely sent by the Luo Family elder. Luo Mingshi knew what she was doing, and stopped thinking about it.
He then asked the guard, "What's your name?"
The hidden guard did not expect Luo Mingshi to suddenly ask about this. After being stunned for a moment, she said: "Duan Li."
Luo Mingshi did not take his silence to heart, as she was already used to Duan Li's slow personality.
Only then did he find the Jade Dew Ointment that she had brought from Beijing. This could be considered as the best medicine to dissolve blood stasis and help blood circulation to heal a wound. With a turn of his body, he threw the medicine towards Duan Li, who received it as a hidden weapon.
Then, he realized that it wasn't a hidden weapon but a superior medicine. He asked in a daze, "For whom?"
Luo Mingshi frowned, wasn't the Dark Guard a little foolish? She then said, "The wound on your hand is too much of an eyesore."
After Duan Li heard this, he silently pulled down his sleeves to cover himself, but he still did not take the medicine.
Luo Mingshi thought he was feeling embarrassed, and said, "I'm fine now, you should go somewhere else."
After the guard heard this, he seemed to be waiting for something. After a long while, he frowned again.
When the guard heard this, he disappeared in a flash.
Duan Li stopped at a secret location not too far away from Luo Mingshi.
There was a mountain on his back and the ground was rather low. The surroundings were covered by trees, and if it wasn't for the fact that he was skilled in martial arts, he wouldn't have been discovered so easily.
