Chapter 1640: Late Night Attack
After that, Li Chi suddenly started talking more.
He drank slowly and asked,
"When did you go up the mountain with your master?"
"Five years ago."
"You've been in the mountains for five years and haven't come down once?"
"No."
"So where was Miss Fuyi from before you went up the mountain?"
"I don't know either,"
Xia Fuyi paused, glanced at Li Chi, seemed to hesitate for a moment, but still answered,
"Before my master brought me up the mountain, I was a beggar. As for what happened before I became a beggar, I don't remember anything."
The movement of raising her hand paused slightly, but Li Chi did not look at her. He just nodded calmly and drank the bowl of wine.
Xia Fuyi felt a little nervous for some reason. She pursed her lips and drank the last bowl of the seventh jar of wine.
The gurgling sound of swallowing made the night even quieter.
The shopkeeper had gone to rest at some point, leaving the waiter sleeping on the counter with his mouth drooling.
At this moment, there was a sudden breeze outside the door, and the candle flame crackled.
Xia Fuyi raised her head just in time to swallow the last sip of wine.
The edge of the wine bowl cast a shadow on her face. She half-closed her eyelids, and her long eyelashes drooped down, revealing a refreshing coolness.
In this silence where the air seemed to have stopped flowing, she suddenly lifted the wine jar beside her without even looking up. The empty jar instantly exploded into countless wind-driven fragments that shot out, piercing through the three windows like an indestructible blade and disappearing into the night outside the window.
The muffled sound of porcelain shards nailing into the body was heard in the quiet air, and scarlet blood silently splashed on the white paper on the window pane.
In the blink of an eye, the doors and windows were shattered, and someone quickly and silently climbed into the lobby, surrounding the table where the two were sitting while keeping a distance.
The waiter was awakened by the noise. He opened his eyes and was about to scream, but before he could open his mouth, someone hit him in the neck with a stone and he fainted.
It was not until this time that Xia Fuyi finished the last sip of wine and slowly put down the wine bowl.
The candlelight illuminated her face, which was still as calm as ever.
It was as if the person who had just attacked was not her.
"I think they're here to cause trouble for you."
Just as those people were slowly approaching, Xia Fuyi spoke to Li Chi in a casual tone.
The man in black was still drinking, and he looked even more relaxed than Xia Fuyi.
Hearing this, he just smiled faintly, but this smile was very cold.
"I think so."
"So you want me to kill them?"
Xia Fuyi asked this very seriously.
Li Chi raised his eyebrows in surprise, but the masked men opposite him couldn't help themselves.
"How shameless!"
An angry roar came along with the sharp hidden weapon, and the scimitar split into several pieces in the middle of the journey, half flying towards Xia Fuyi and the other half flying towards Li Chi. The blades flashed a strange light under the light, and it was obvious that they were poisoned.
Xia Fuyi frowned, seeming very unhappy, but even though she was unhappy, her movements did not slow down at all.
Almost at the same time as the man made his move, she raised her hand and smashed a jar of wine.
The flying knife of the man opposite was clearly infused with extremely strong internal force. A small jar of wine should not have been able to stop it, but the jar just happened to block the flying knife. Before they scattered, the flying knife suddenly pierced into the jar of wine. Then there was a crisp explosion sound, and the wine splashed in an instant, and fragments shot in all directions.
The group of people swung their swords to knock down the fragments, and when the wine had all fallen and their vision became clear, the girl in white had stood in front of the table without them knowing when.
She stood in the warm candlelight, but her eyes were colder than frost and snow.
She slowly drew her sword, and it gleamed like silver. The girl pointed the sword at them, her eyes calm and indifferent.
"If I say I can kill you, I really can kill you."
"If you don't believe me, come and try it."
Behind her, the man in black sat as upright as before, his drinking posture still elegant. Only when he looked up at the girl's back, his eyes finally showed a hint of interest and a bit of inexplicable obscurity.
