take my life

Chapter 2

The old master Ye is practicing swords in the sword garden at this time. Although he is over half a hundred years old, he is very young and strong, and he is quite famous in the world. Ye Mingxi admires his father very much.After admiring a set of Mengquan Tiger Running, he thought to himself, what kind of effect would such a strong internal force paired with this peerless martial arts.

"Watching the dance for my father from the sidelines for so long, do you have any insight?" Old Master Ye put down his light sword, kindly poured a bowl of tea and handed it to Ye Mingxi.

"Father, I came today to invite you to see something." Ye Mingxi couldn't wait to take out the brocade box and present it to the old master Ye, looking forward to seeing his expression.

The old master Ye took the brocade box with a smile and opened it casually. Suddenly, his hand trembled and almost fell to the ground, and his face changed color. "Xi'er, where did this... this thing come from?"

"The south of the city was flooded at the beginning of the year, and a beggar dug it from the Tang family's old house." Ye Mingxi said with some doubts.

"The ancient house of the Tang family?" Ye Laozhuang master's hand trembled imperceptibly, but quickly regained his composure.

"Father, does this koi really hide peerless martial arts?" Ye Mingxi observed this treasure for a long time, but he didn't find the place where the peerless martial arts were hidden. Could it be in the belly of the fish?

"It's the first time I've seen it with my own eyes as a father. Let me study it. By the way, you and You'er came to my study at Xushi tonight. I have something to say." The old master Ye's expression was unprecedentedly dignified. There seems to be some kind of subtle connection between the assassin of the Tang Sect and the appearance of Nilin Li in today's world.

It was late at night, and the huge Ye Family Villa was as bright as day, and there seemed to be twice as many guards on patrol than usual.Everyone knows that the old master Ye has obtained a rare treasure, and he must keep it away from thieves.

And the people on the roof looked at everything under their feet calmly, half of their masks were stained with a layer of coldness. "Come out, you have been with me for so long." The man said to the dark night behind him.

Not long after, snow-white cats suddenly sprang out of the darkness, and their strange, strange-colored pupils just stared at him motionlessly.

"Don't follow me. I don't have any dried fish for you to eat. The owner of the house under your feet is a rich owner. Follow him, and you don't have to worry about dried fish for the rest of your life."

The kitten obviously didn't understand what he said. After seeing that there was no danger around, it jumped onto the man's stomach with a light leap, and began to tear his clothes desperately.The man smiled lightly, grabbed his two cat paws and threw them aside, "It's still a little cat."

"Meow." The cat raised its head and let out a cry, then perseveringly jumped to his chest again, buried its head in his clothes and pulled at the half of the jade tied around his neck, the man was about to tear it off again, the gate of the courtyard opened at this time.

"Hush—" the man lightly gestured to the kitten, and the kitten really seemed to understand what he said, obediently lying on his body and not moving.

Two figures approached the door one after the other. They were shining brightly, and their figures were very similar. They could be recognized at a glance. They were the two young masters who were drinking tea in the teahouse today.Ye Heng didn't know what to think, he was the same son as the eldest son, but he passed the sword of the village to the second son, which announced the next heir of the villa, but the eldest son Ye Mingxi didn't know anything about it. No complaints.

"Eldest young master, second young master, please come inside." The housekeeper at the door greeted the two young masters respectfully, and closed the door behind him.

Tang Zhenyu lay on the roof of the study, pricking up his ears to listen to the movement inside. The people inside spoke very carefully, their voices were low and inaudible, but they still vaguely heard the word Shen Yi.He sneered and got up to leave, but he ignored the kitten who was sleeping soundly on top of him. The kitten was frightened and almost slipped to the ground, and ran away with a meowing scream.

Oops!

"Who is it!" Ye Mingyou only heard an unreal meow, but he concluded that someone must have disturbed the wild cat.As soon as he went out, he saw a white mass moving fast on the eaves. Ye Mingyou threw a few darts with his hands. The speed of the darts was much faster than that thing. It was about to hit, and a black shadow flashed away. However, there was a muffled sound of darts piercing through the armor in the distance, and then the surroundings returned to calm.

Sure enough, there are people!Ye Mingyou pulled out Qianye Changsheng behind his back and chased after him, the golden sword light drew an arc of light in the dark night.

Tang Zhenyu held the white cat in one hand and staggered towards the bamboo forest outside the village. Three poison darts were stuck in his back shoulder and he was still bleeding. His entire left arm was still numb and he gradually lost his intuition.The strong wind was pressing behind him, and when he turned his head, a golden light had stopped in front of him, and the man who looked foolish was pointing straight at him with a golden sword in his hand.

Qianye Changsheng?Tang Zhenyu narrowed his eyes and stared at the sword in his hand. He knew that the blade of this sword was extremely thin, cutting iron like mud. If he really wanted to fight, he might not even be able to lift the sleeve arrow, let alone the crossbow. .arrow.The kitten in his arms foresaw the danger, and lay on his arm screaming miserably.

"Who are you, and what is the purpose of sneaking into the villa late at night?" Ye Mingyou pointed his long sword straight at his throat, and asked in a deep voice.

Staring at the sharp-edged face, Tang Zhenyu smiled wryly in his heart, it seemed that he was really not his opponent.But on the surface, he still looked calm, and said in a hoarse voice: "What purpose can I have? I heard that Master Ye has obtained a rare treasure. I want to come and see it." Just after he finished speaking, his legs suddenly went limp Kneeling on the ground with his hands on the ground, his long eyebrows were furrowed tightly. The poison on his left shoulder had spread to his legs, making his whole leg lose consciousness.

Ye Mingyou stared at him for a while, seeing his gradually softening body, the whole person was paralyzed on the ground, with his head down, his pale complexion turned sickly gray under the moonlight, and the shiny beads of sweat slid down the sides of his face, splashing on the A few spots of ink were stained on the blue bricks under his feet.It is the outbreak of the poison, once the poison breaks out, it is like the bite of insects and ants, the pain is unbearable.

Ye Mingyou stabbed the sword in front of his eyes, squatted down and said unhurriedly: "You have been hit by Mei Yinxiang, if you don't want to suffer some physical pain, just tell me the truth."

Unexpectedly, the man returned to him without raising his head: "Whether I say it or not, I'm afraid it will be a dead end. Don't worry about Young Master Ye, just kill me." His tone was cold and provocative.

Ye Mingyou has never seen such a person who is not afraid of death. Looking at the face covered by half of the mask, the more he looked at it, the more he felt uncomfortable.He reached out to caress his mask, and felt a cold and hard touch from his fingertips, and he could feel the people under him tremble slightly.The corner of his mouth twitched, and he squeezed his sweaty chin with a smirk to force him to look up, but the man turned his face away and closed his eyes slightly, refusing to look at him.

"I heard that the killers of the Tang Sect will wear a silver mask. If someone sees their true colors, it's either you die or I live." Ye Mingyou said with a smirk.Rubbing the slippery skin in his hand with his fingertips, it feels like a girl.

"That depends on whether Young Master Ye has the ability." The man sneered, and suddenly raised his eyes to meet his.With four eyes facing each other, Ye Mingyou suddenly flicked his hand away as if catching a thorn, the shock in his eyes was fleeting but clearly visible.

The man looked at him with a half-smile. His eyes were slender and flexible. At first glance, he looked like a sly fox. The starlight in his pupils flowed like crumbled white moonlight falling into his eyes. It was bright and beautiful. The hunting wolf is quick-witted and cold, with a cold light when spying on the prey.

There was a voice in his heart clamoring to take off the mask, which made him stretch out his hand again.But this time before he touched his face, the white cat suddenly sprang up ferociously and opened its mouth to bite. Fortunately, his eyes were sharp and his hands were quick to stop in time, so that the cat jumped into Tang Zhenyu's arms and stared timidly at him. .

Seeing this, Tang Zhenyu smiled coldly and said, "Young Master Ye wants to see it sooner, and I will regret it later."

Seeing that the white cat in his arms was not kind to him, Ye Mingyou wanted to kill it, but when he saw the man's eyes, he gave up this idea again, so he had to pinch the white cat's neck with one hand and expose him with the other. mask.But as soon as his hand touched his mask, the face under the mask suddenly showed him a sinister smile, Ye Mingyou instinctively felt that something was wrong!He quickly wanted to withdraw his hand, but was a step too late, his wrist was firmly grasped, and another hand was pinching his throat like iron clamps.

"Master Ye, your poison doesn't seem to be strong enough. How about trying my poison?" Tang Zhenyu increased his strength while smiling wickedly. A moment seems to crush the throat.

Ye Mingyou had a look of disbelief, "Are you all right?" The toxicity has clearly flared up, why is he all right?Could it be that he was just pretending?

Tang Zhenyu licked the corners of her lips, and looked at him contemptuously: "Master Ye, have you forgotten what the Tang Sect does?"

Tangmen?Ye Mingyou thought about it carefully, and suddenly came to his senses.Blame myself for being stupid. The Tang Sect is a family of assassins. They are good at using traps and hidden weapons. What is inseparable from hidden weapon traps is that they are poisonous. Tang Sect killers have been in contact with them since childhood, and they have long been familiar with them. In front of him, he was just playing tricks, thank God he didn't poison him to death.

"Okay, I admit it." Ye Mingyou sighed softly, and then said: "Your cat is still in my hands, are you not afraid that I will crush his throat?"

Tang Zhenyu chuckled lightly and said, "It's just a wild cat, you can dispose of it as you like, but it's not worth it to exchange the life of a cat for the life of the young owner of the Ye family."

"What do you want?"

Tang Zhenyu approached him, her cold eyes narrowed slightly, murderous intent abounded, but her words came out calmly: "If you don't want to burn everything, then let us go."

Ye Mingyou knew that he couldn't stop him, and the Sanzhuang Nursing House couldn't find him at all, and it would be useless to continue pestering him, so he had to let go, and the white cat swooped onto Tang Zhenyu's shoulder as soon as it landed, staring at him covetously.Tang Zhenyu also slowly relaxed her strength, and exploded the smoke bomb in her hand the moment she left his neck. Ye Mingyou was caught off guard and was so smoked that she couldn't open her eyes. When her eyes got used to it, the person had disappeared.

hateful!Ye Mingyou pulled out the light sword stuck on the ground and put it into the scabbard, but he was actually tricked!Just as he was considering whether to chase after him, hurried footsteps sounded behind him.

"Mingyou?" Someone called him from a distance, it was Ye Mingxi who came to find him, but it was a pity that he came a step late.

"Brother, people... ran away." Ye Mingyou said disappointedly.

"Well, let's go back." Ye Mingxi didn't blame him, and turned around and walked back after a short answer.Ye Mingyou sighed and followed silently.

When the two returned to the study, the old master Ye stood with his hands behind his back, silent.Ye Mingyou talked about what happened just now. Logically speaking, it is very common for him to escape. Although it is in his hands, the other party is not an ordinary thief. Self-protection is the most important thing when he does not know the details. For some reason, when the father heard that the thief was wearing half of the silver mask, he suddenly became furious and made him kneel down, followed by a half-hour-long silence.

"You two go down, I'm tired of my father." The old master Ye finally spoke, and Ye Mingyou wanted to say something more, but Ye Mingxi stared back.He stood up and rubbed his legs. Just as he was about to leave, his eyes suddenly went dark, and he fell heavily to the ground, losing consciousness.
