[Shadow Guardian] The Wind Rises from the Wild West

When Honghan realized that Yun was missing, the banquet was already coming to an end.Regardless of whether they were sincere or not, those nobles and officials presented many treasures and beauties to welcome the return of the lord.Uncle Xi Yan was also warm and courteous, as if the host and guest were enjoying themselves.

The waiters didn't know where the boy in black went.Honghan walked back without any guidance, but he still firmly felt that Yun was deep in the Hou's mansion.Walking to the backyard, Jiu Jin immediately sobered up a lot when he was blown by the cool wind.Only then did he hear the faint sound of metal and iron intersecting in the distance.

The four hidden guards were in full swing when they heard a shout from behind: "Who is it!"

A big man sprang out from the gate of the moon cave, reeking of alcohol, with angry eyes, who is it not Hong Han?

Yun saw that his hands were empty, he came from the banquet without a machete at all, and he was wearing a long-sleeved, long-sleeved dress, and immediately became anxious-he didn't look like he could fight at all. "Master, don't come!"

After Honghan drank, he couldn't control so much, so he rolled up his sleeves.

Several hidden guards glanced at each other, this matter has been exposed and must be resolved quickly.Immediately, three people were separated to meet Honghan, leaving only the boss who wields the sword to greet Yun.

The long whip blocked Honghan's way out, and the knife and hook attacked from both sides.Hong Han touched his waist only to realize that he didn't have a knife with him. In a blink of an eye, he only listened to Yun and shouted: "Go on!" A stream of light came through the air. With a wave in front of him, he blocked the sharp knife and hook with two bangs.

The two hidden guards took a step back after being shocked by him, and exclaimed: "The idea is hard!"

Yun lost his dagger, and the opponent's long sword stabbed at his locked right side of the body very trickily.But Yun didn't seem to have seen it, he stretched out both palms, and hit the big rock with a cold face.With a click, the stone finally shattered, and the long sword pierced deeply into his right shoulder.

The dark guard turned pale with fright, he didn't expect to injure the opponent so badly, and he didn't expect the boy to smash the boulder.With the chains no longer attached, Yun was free.He swung the iron chain towards the hidden guard in front of him.The dark guard made a strange cry, and slid a few feet back to dodge the sharp blow, his face was chilled by the wind slightly lifted by the chain. "withdraw!"

Those hidden guards who stopped Xi Yanbo didn't care about fighting, they got away and left.

But it is too late to withdraw at this time.Honghan's loud shout earlier alarmed the guards in front of him, and a group of people rushed out, pointing cold crossbow points at several hidden guards from all directions.

The dark guard glanced at Uncle Xi Yan, the boy in black was already standing there calmly, just blocking between Uncle Xi Yan and several dark guards, and the guards around were waiting, ready to shoot their crossbows at any time—— It is no longer possible to hold hostages among the crowd.

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the dark guard quickly said, "Bo Jun, we came from heaven!"

Hong Han didn't care where they came from, and was about to wave his hand when Yun Yun said in a low voice: "Master, please let them go."

Hong Han raised his eyebrows.

"They didn't come to kill you."

"Fart! You can't kill anyone like this!" Hong Han swears.

Yun looked back at him and insisted: "They have no intention of killing me, please let them go."

The guards held guns and looked at Hong Han, Hong Han looked at the young man, and the hidden guards looked at Xi Yanbo, secretly clenched the weapons in their hands, ready to fight violently at any time.

Hong Han narrowed his eyes, Yun rarely asked for anything, and even asked twice in a row.He slowly lowered his hand and waved it. "That's all."

The guards reluctantly stepped aside, and the four hidden guards breathed a sigh of relief, and ran away as fast as they could.

With a gloomy face, Hong Han returned the dagger to Yun, only to find that his hand was sticky, and it turned out to be blood.He stretched out his hand to grab it, and found that Yun's clothes were all wet, even soaked in blood.In the darkness of the night, the blood stained on the black clothes could not be seen at all, and he did not know where the injuries were, and the arm he was holding was also trembling slightly.

"Why didn't you call someone earlier!"

Yun bowed his head, he never thought of calling someone, he was too used to fighting silently by himself.Besides, this is his business and has nothing to do with others.

Hong Han was furious: "What do you think I am! Even my own people can't protect me from being Xi Yan Bo!"

***

The doctor cleaned up the boy's wounds, and reported back to Honghan that they were all traumatic injuries, only his right shoulder was seriously injured, and that no more physical force should be used in the near future, and he will be bandaged and healed, and he will be fine.

Hong Han finally felt a little better.He had just returned to Yancheng when something like this happened, and he had to reflect on it.

I only focused on the overall situation, but neglected the things around me.After returning to the country and stationed in the Hou's Mansion, he can no longer be as negligent as before wandering around. The necessary precautions are necessary.Uncle Thirteen is an old man in the Hou family, so you can rest assured that this matter is entrusted to him.

Yun was brought out from Mount Qi by him. He thought that the Son of Heaven was weak and could not reach such a remote place as Xiyan, but he had no choice but to guard against it.

Hong Hantian is not afraid of anything, he has always felt that no matter how strong the enemy is, as long as his people are still there, he will have unlimited courage and opportunities.

Honghan pushed the door open and entered the room. He wanted to have a good talk with Yun, but he was suddenly shocked.

The boy is trying to put on his black clothes.The wounds on his body were all bound with bandages. His hands, arms, legs, shoulders, and waist were bound in many places, and blood was still oozing from some places.The chains on his wrists and ankles hadn't been pried off yet, and he thought they wouldn't be able to untie them for a while, so he had to hang them first.White bandages, red bloodstains, black shackles, a nonchalant expression, a pale and clean person——Hong Han couldn't move his eyes away.

His right shoulder was injured and it was difficult to move, and he was restrained by chains, and it was very difficult and clumsy to even put on clothes.

Hong Han pressed his hand and took the black clothes away. "Don't wear black clothes in the future." Black clothes can't see blood, can't see injuries, and always think nothing is wrong.

"But... I am the master's shadow guard." Shadow guards have always been dressed in black.

"My people have to obey my rules." Hong Han took off his fine clothes and put them on the young man.Covering his scarred body.

"Yes, Master."

Yun's body is thin and thin, which is typical of young people. The skin on the uninjured area is fair, and some old and shallow scars can be seen.Hong Han remembered that when he was in Qishan, the young man's body had no scars, except for the brand marks on the back of his hands, he was perfect.But after following me for a few months, there are a lot of new and old injuries.

"Haven't you ever been hurt before?"

The young man replied: "It is impossible to practice without getting hurt. But there are no major injuries, but minor injuries are common."

His fingers lightly brushed the scar on the side of his waist—it was left by the battle in the grassland. "Why haven't I seen it before?"

Yun thought for a while, "The cold spring in Shadow Gate is said to have the effect of healing." Regardless of the strange cold attribute, it is actually a treasured place for martial artists to practice.

"So that's how it is." Hong Han said in his heart that in the future he would have to take Yun to Yingmen again, and soak in the spring water to remove the scars. "Do you know those killers?"

Yun lowered his eyes and said, "It doesn't count as acquaintance. It's the emperor's secret guard."

"It's a shadow guard and a dark guard, it's really complicated!" Hong Han stopped interrupting, and waited for him to continue.

Yun paused for a while, "No matter what the reason is, it is a fact that I left Qishan privately. The emperor was furious and sent dark guards to arrest me. I refuse to go with them."

"If he has the courage, he will directly issue a Wang Ling to ask for someone from me!" Hong Han couldn't help it again.

"Will you respect the king's order?"

"of course not."

Yun sighed, "What's the face of the Son of Heaven?"

Hong Han laughed, the decline of the Tian family has not been a day or two.From this point of view, it is indeed easier to send a few experts over to handle things quietly. "So you will send someone in the future?"

Yun thought for a while: "It probably won't happen." He had prepared himself, and it would be useless for the hidden guard to come a few more times.But the emperor will not send out those who can deal with him.

"In the future, if someone comes, you can call out to them openly. If there is a fight, we will fight together, and if we have meat, we will eat together."

"Okay." Yun also smiled.He doesn't know much about the world, and he doesn't know how to smile to please others, so he rarely smiles, but he must be really happy when he smiles.

Honghan thought of something, and asked seriously: "Are you unwilling to go with them, or because of the fire contract, you can't go with them?" After worshiping the master through the fire contract, Ying can't resist the master.Yun had already recognized him as his master, so naturally he couldn't leave.But 'can't' and 'will not' are two different things.

Yun raised his eyes, looked at Hong Han fixedly, and replied very clearly: "I don't want to go with them."

What does it feel like to be elated?Before Hong Han felt that everything was not going well and suppressed his anger, suddenly the clouds cleared up, as if he had eaten honey.

He let out a deep laugh from his chest, and put his arms around the young man, "Not bad! Not bad! Just follow me! Although I am rough and domineering, I know how to protect the people around me! Whether you are a martial artist, or you are injured or sick, I will always protect you from being hurt by anyone, no one will do. You are mine, and you will be mine for the rest of your life, and I will protect you for the rest of your life!"

Yun looked at his handsome side face, and the laughter in his chest seemed to pass directly from his body into his body.A heart that has been accustomed to darkness for a long time seems to have found a slightly bright exit, although it is far away, it feels inexplicably at ease.He doesn't need human protection, but it's different if someone is willing to protect him.

That handsome face suddenly approached, with a slight smell of alcohol, and his eyes were surprisingly bright.Yun has already been able to read the cockroaches in Honghan's eyes, this time he didn't close his eyes, and stretched out his hand to untie Honghan's shirt clumsily.

"Don't mess with me." Hong Han didn't want to touch the young man because he was scrupled about his injuries, even though he wanted it terribly.

Yun said in his ear: "These injuries are okay. I am very grateful for what you said just now." He gently kissed Honghan's thin cheek.He never took the initiative, although he was always tame and submissive, but that was not the same as taking the initiative.

The soft breath brushed against the ears, Hong Han's eyes darkened, the gorgeous robe wrapped around the boy's body tightly, and he hugged him effortlessly.

The old servant who had been waiting outside the door of the side hall was taken aback, and the door was roughly kicked open.Uncle Xi Yan stepped out, wearing only his jacket, and went to the bedroom with a person in his arms.All he saw was a corner of the ornate robe, and a bandaged arm that fell outside.There were faint bloodstains under the bandage, and there were still dark iron chains on his wrists.

The old servant suddenly realized, and felt that he understood the preferences of the new king.

He followed Xi Yanbo closely, and when he passed a group of beauties kneeling in the corridor, he winked and made them disperse.

These beauties were presented by various nobles and lords at the banquet. Although they would secretly send assassins for profit, they still presented a lot of gifts and beauties to celebrate the return of the lord.

The beauties were kneeling together, guessing which one of them would be lucky enough to enter the bedroom on the first day the lord came back, but the lord actually went there with someone in his arms.They knelt on both sides of the corridor, so they also saw the bandages, blood and chains, and were even more surprised that it didn't look like a woman.

The beauties looked at each other, consciously comprehending many things.
