Just as the man’s head appeared at the entrance of the cellar, Li Yu pulled the trigger of the crossbow. The arrow tore through the air and the man fell.

Li Yu caught him and placed him on the ground. She jumped into the cellar and saw that the room on the left was brightly lit. Those men were laughing loudly inside. She bent down and followed the wall to the entrance of the courtyard. She gently took off the door chain and followed the wall back to the corridor of the right ear room. She followed the corridor and entered the inner courtyard like a ghost.

The courtyard was dimly lit. Two lamps were placed under the eaves at both ends of the veranda. It was quiet. No one should be living in the inner courtyard.

Li Yu arrived in front of the main room and gently pushed open the door of the central room. She flashed into the room and closed the door. She took out a lighter and blew on it. She saw that the central room was simple. There were two rows of wooden chairs. In the middle was an eight-seat table and a chair on both sides. It seemed to be a place to entertain guests and discuss matters.

Li Yu left and went next door. Seeing that the door was locked, she took off a

hairpin and inserted it into the lock. After fiddling with it a few times, the lock opened.

Pushing open the door, she saw a desk by the window. There were brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones on the table. There was a row of tall cabinets against the wall with a few exquisite jade ornaments on them. Li Yu couldn’t be bothered to distinguish which letters and books were useful and put them all into the space.

The people waiting for Old Lin to drink in the outer courtyard waited for a long time, but Old Lin and the others did not come out. Someone felt that something was wrong and frowned. “Why haven’t Brother Lin and the others come out after so long? Second Han went to call someone but didn’t come back.”

A wretched-looking man smiled and said, “Brother Lin, Old Chai, and the others won’t have their way with her just like that! Let me take a look.”

“Let’s go take a look too.” The men smiled wretchedly and walked towards the cellar with their arms around each other’s shoulders, talking indiscriminately.

When the wretched man reached the entrance of the cellar, he walked down anxiously. He stepped on Er Han and shouted, “Brothers, grab your weapons. Er Han has been killed. Hurry up and see if anyone followed us in.”

The other two turned and ran back. The wretched man and the two men drew their daggers and carefully reached the mouth of the cellar. They stuck their heads in and looked inside. They saw Old Chai and the other two lying on the ground. They rushed into the cellar with their daggers in their hands and saw the arrows at their throats. They looked around the cellar but could not find Old Lin.

The wretched man said anxiously, “I think it’s most likely that Old Lin helped that woman kill Old Chai and Ah Gen. It’s dark. They can’t have gone far. Let’s go out and look around.”

The few of them scurried out. The people outside had already scattered, looking for Li Yu’s traces.

Someone realized that the door chain was against the wall. “Oh no, she must have run away. Hurry up and chase after her with a torch.”

Li Yu was in the study and had already swept to the bookshelves. When she touched a book, the bookcase made a cracking sound as it opened. A secret door appeared in front of her. Li Yu was overjoyed. Just as she was about to enter, she suddenly heard a shout from outside. She quickly retreated and hung the lock again. She climbed onto a beam and quietly leaned against it. She looked at the aisle of the ear room and listened for movement.

After more than ten breaths, they saw three men running in with knives. They checked each room and quickly arrived at the main room. Seeing that the lock of the main room was hanging on it, they went to the room on the left and checked around but didn’t find anything wrong. They shook their heads and turned to run out of the courtyard.

Li Yu waited for them to go out before coming down from the beam. She opened the study door and flashed into the room. She closed the door and walked down the tunnel towards the secret room.

The people who ran out of the house to search ran around but couldn’t find any traces of Li Yu and Old Lin. One of them said, “I don’t think they can run so fast. I’m afraid they’re still hiding in the courtyard. I think we should go back and take a look first.”

“Alright, let’s go back and see if they’re hiding in the backyard.” They ran back with torches.

Li Yu had already walked into the secret room and lit the candles on the wall. She saw that in the secret room that was more than 100 square meters, there were all kinds of bows, crossbows, spears, spears, axes, and machetes neatly arranged. There was also an entire box of arrows that shone coldly under the candlelight.

Li Yu put away some weapons and placed them in her space in case of emergencies. She came out of the secret room and closed the door. Just as she reached the study, four to five people rushed in with torches.

When the leader saw Li Yu, he shouted, “Brothers, come quickly. That woman is in the inner courtyard.”

Li Yu raised the crossbow and aimed it at them. With a few thuds, the people in front fell to the ground. The people behind hid behind the pillar and shouted,

“Everyone, be careful. That woman is at the door of the study. She has a crossbow. Go back and get the arrows.”

Li Yu kicked the wall and climbed up the beam again. She hid behind the porch pillar and shot at the two bandits who were running out. The two of them were shot and fell to the ground.

Then two more people ran in with machetes. The bandit hiding behind the porch pillar shouted at them, “Be careful, the two of you. That woman has arrows.”

The two of them hurriedly hid in the dark. “Big Black, the two of us will go around the west wing. You guys go over here. We’ll flank them from both sides.”

“Okay,” the man hiding behind the porch post replied.

The two of them ran along the corridor toward the room opposite. Li Yu aimed at the two of them and pulled the trigger. The arrow tore through the air, making a cracking sound. The person who was aimed fell to the ground. The other person who had been shot in the arm hurriedly hid behind the corridor pillar.

The people here didn’t dare to move. The wretched man gritted his teeth and looked at the porch pillar where Li Yu was hiding. He patted the big black man beside him. “Big Black, let’s go back to the house to get the arrows first.”

The dark-skinned man nodded. The two of them bent down one after another and ran along the wall towards the aisle of the ear room. How could they escape Li Yu’s watch? She aimed at the two of them and shot. The wretched man was shot in the back and fell forward.

With a bang, the big black man was also knocked to the ground. He did not dare to move anymore. He lay on the ground and shouted outside, “Brothers, bring the bows and arrows and shoot that bitch to death.”

The man who had returned from outside walked to the aisle and retreated This chapter is updated by ɴo(v)elFɪre.net

when he heard the shout. He returned to the house with his quiver and bow and walked in.

The big black man shouted at them, “Brothers, aim at the beam in the study and shoot that bitch to death.”

The few of them drew their bows and aimed their arrows at the beam. With a whoosh, the arrow brushed past Li Yu’s body and shot into the wall and pillars. The few of them attacked the study as they shot. The two of them walked to the side, wanting to shoot Li Yu from the side.

Li Yu leaned on the beam and aimed at the two people who had spread out. She quickly pulled the trigger and the arrow flew towards the person on the right. The person on the right was shot and fell to the ground. The person on the left moved quickly and shot when he saw Li Yu aiming. The arrow tore through the air and flew towards Li Yu. Li Yu waved her crossbow and knocked down the arrow. She pulled out the dagger on her leg and threw it at the bandit on the left who fell to the ground..
