However, after following for a while, when they entered a remote alley, Shen Ye discovered that the people from the Xuanming Sect who were following Ji Ruxue suddenly stopped, then dispersed with anxious looks on their faces, looking around, as if they were looking for something.

"It looks like he's lost?"

Seeing this situation, Shen Ye was very clear about what was happening. When he and his comrades performed a tracking mission for the first time, the expressions and behaviors of his comrades when they lost someone were exactly the same as theirs.

Shaking his head helplessly, Shen Ye turned around and left. Since they had lost the person, there was no need for him to follow them anymore.

Then he looked at the sky, and seeing that it was getting late, he decided to find a place to stay and wait for the plot to begin.

In fact, he also wanted to go to other places to take the initiative to contact the characters that appeared in the subsequent plot, but the ancient times were different from the modern times, and transportation was really inconvenient. It would take a long time to go to other places relying on his own legs. What's more important is that he had no map and didn't know the names of various places in ancient times. So in the end he could only follow the plot and make other plans after he was familiar with it.

Thinking this way, Shen Ye left the alley, and after wandering around the street, he luckily found an inn.

Although he had short hair, he didn't look so strange after changing into "local" clothes. So the shop owner who saw him coming asked enthusiastically behind the counter: "Sir, please come in. Do you want to stay overnight or stay overnight?"

Hearing this, Shen Ye almost couldn't help laughing. If he hadn't really traveled through time, he would have thought that he was making a guest appearance in a costume drama.

"We'll add a hotel room for a quick stop." Shen Ye tried hard to hold back his laughter, then he remembered the classic scene of Ying Gou, one of the four great corpse ancestors, and added, "A soft bed room, plus a table for the banquet."

After saying all this, Shen Ye finally couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing.

The shop owner looked at Shen Ye in confusion, wondering if he had met a madman, when he saw Shen Ye throwing a small piece of gold at him.

Gold is the most popular currency in ancient and modern times, not to mention the chaotic times at the end of the Tang Dynasty. The shopkeeper took the gold, weighed it in his hand, and knew it was real. He immediately walked out from behind the counter with a smile on his face, bent over and said, "Uncle, please follow me, I will take you to the upper room now."

Shen Ye nodded, and just as he was about to follow the shop owner upstairs, another person walked in from outside the inn.

"Boss, please open a room upstairs, and then cook a few dishes and send them to my room." The man shouted to the boss as he entered the room. His voice was cold, but it sounded very familiar to Shen Ye.

Shen Ye immediately turned around and looked. Sure enough, the person who came was Ji Ruxue who had been lost by the Xuanming Sect.

"Is this fate?" Shen Ye was suddenly surprised. How could he meet her in a random inn?

"It's you……"

When Shen Ye looked at Ji Ruxue, Ji Ruxue also noticed him and was also a little surprised.

Seeing Ji Ruxue saw him, Shen Ye thought for a moment, then he bowed to Ji Ruxue and said with a smile: "Miss, we meet again. Is this the fate between you and me?"

Ji Ruxue did not respond, but instead gave him a cold look. Later, when the waiter took her upstairs, she passed by Shen Ye and snorted at him, "You lecher."

These three words made Shen Ye feel a little confused. He thought to himself, I didn't seem to have done anything, right? How could I be called a lecher? Could it be that what I said just now seemed frivolous?

After thinking for a while, he still couldn't figure it out, so he was led by the shop owner to the door of his room.

But what surprised Shen Ye even more was that Ji Ruxue's room was right next to his. She was standing at the door at this moment, instructing the waiter something. She caught a glimpse of Shen Ye coming over from the corner of her eye and immediately frowned.

Because he was called a pervert when he approached her before, Shen Ye decided to ignore her this time and walked into his room without blinking.

After instructing the shopkeeper to serve the dishes as soon as possible, Shen Ye took off his shoes and lay on the bed, then crossed his legs comfortably, waiting for his high-quality banquet...

……

In the blink of an eye, it was midnight.

Shen Ye put on the new clothes and shoes that he asked the waiter to buy, and walked around the room hesitantly.

"Should I go and see it for myself?" he thought to himself.

Since there were so few entertainment options in ancient times, Shen Ye began to feel bored not long after finishing dinner and taking a bath. He wanted to go to bed early, but he usually went to bed at eleven or twelve o'clock, so he couldn't fall asleep at all. In the end, he could only sit on the bed in a daze.

However, after being in a daze for a while, he suddenly remembered the brothel he passed by in the afternoon, and immediately wanted to go and see it.

But after changing his clothes, he hesitated again. After all, visiting a brothel is elegant if you put it nicely, but it is also going to a prostitute if you put it bluntly, so he felt a little embarrassed.

"Forget it. We're already in ancient times. I might as well go and see it. Besides, someone said that if you don't pay... No, if you don't stay overnight, it doesn't count as prostitution."

After hesitating for a while, Shen Ye finally convinced himself and left the room without hesitation.

At the entrance of the inn, Shen Ye woke up the waiter who was dozing off at the entrance, then took out a few pieces of silver and threw them to him: "Where is the best brothel in the city?"

When the waiter saw the silver coins, he immediately became excited and said repeatedly: "Hey, sir, you finally asked the right person. I know all the brothels and brothels in the city..."

"Stop talking nonsense and just tell me how to get there." Shen Ye interrupted the waiter impatiently.

The waiter shrank his neck and said quickly, "Sir, please go straight along this road and you will see it at the first corner."

Shen Ye nodded, turned and walked in the direction the waiter pointed.

However, he had not taken a few steps when he suddenly heard a creaking sound from a window opening above his head.

Subconsciously looking up, Shen Ye saw Ji Ruxue jumping out of the window and passing lightly over his head.

"There are no street lights, what a pity..." Seeing this scene, this thought suddenly appeared in Shen Ye's mind. You know, in the world of The Bad Kids, many female characters wear leg-revealing skirts, but there are no street lights, so he couldn't see anything clearly just now.

"But where is she going so late at night?"

Shen Ye retracted his wandering thoughts and followed with some doubt. He completely forgot about the idea of ​​going to the brothel to have a look.

Chapter 381! Fighting in the Dark

(Ji Ruxue)

……

Although Shen Ye himself does not have any martial arts skills, he can still fly high by relying on his strong physical fitness and professional abilities. He can easily jump dozens or even hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye. After all, in this fantasy martial arts world, the several professional abilities he can use are basically not restricted.

Therefore, even though Ji Ruxue's figure was erratic and ghostly, he could still follow her easily.

In order to avoid being discovered, he did not follow too closely, but stayed not too far behind Ji Ruxue. Only when the distance between them was a little far did he speed up.

A few minutes later, the two of them crossed half of the city and came to a residential area with complex terrain. At this moment, the two of them happened to be quite far away from each other. Before Shen Ye could speed up, Ji Ruxue suddenly turned around and fell into an alley. When Shen Ye jumped over, she had disappeared.

Shen Ye was stunned for a moment, then immediately held his breath and concentrated to sense something, but most of the disciples of Huanyinfang were assassins, and were best at the secret technique of restraining their breath and hiding their bodies, and Shen Ye did not sense it.

After standing there for a long time, Shen Ye finally sighed, "No wonder the people from Xuanming Sect could lose me in broad daylight. Huanyinfang really has some tricks."

Shaking his head helplessly, Shen Ye could only return to the inn first. Anyway, according to the plot, Ji Ruxue should not leave Yuzhou City in the next few days. Then he could just go to the city gate and wait.

……

In a bedroom in a residential courtyard, Ji Ruxue exchanged greetings with several young women in front of her and said, "Are the things ready?"

These Huanyinfang disciples were spies stationed in Yuzhou who were responsible for intelligence work. The leading Huanyinfang disciple nodded, turned around and took out a small box from under the bed, opened it and placed it on the table in front of Ji Ruxue, and said:

"In the past few days, people from the Xuanming Sect have been searching everywhere in the city. After you get this item, you must be careful and leave the city as soon as possible to deliver it to the empress."

Ji Ruxue took a look at the fire ganoderma in the box, smelled the fragrant aroma, then closed the lid and nodded, "Don't worry, I'll leave the city tonight."

As she spoke, she took a bundle from behind her, wrapped the box, and tied it around her waist.

Seeing her put away the box, one of the female disciples of Huanyinfang said, "For safety reasons, we should send you out of the city."

Ji Ruxue shook her head: "No need, too many people will attract the attention of Xuanming Sect, I can do it alone."

"Okay then, you have to be careful." The female disciple did not force it, but just gave a warning.

Ji Ruxue hummed, turned and walked towards the door. However, just as she opened the door, a sharp arrow shot towards her with a whistling sound.

Although Ji Ruxue's current strength is only at the middle star level, her reaction is not slow at all. Moreover, as a disciple of Huanyinfang, she has some basic dance skills. Facing the incoming arrow, she subconsciously bent her body backwards at an exaggerated angle, narrowly avoiding the fatal arrow.

But the disciples of Huanyinfang behind her were not so lucky. One of them was pierced through the chest by a sharp arrow and nailed to the ground.

Seeing the sisters nailed to the ground, the other disciples of Huanyinfang in the house finally reacted. However, the first thing they did was not to check on the sisters. Instead, they drew their swords, smashed the window and rushed out.

"Xue'er, hurry up and leave. We will escort you out of the city."

At this time, sharp arrows were coming like raindrops. The leading disciple of Huanyinfang danced with the sword to deflect the arrows while shouting to Ji Ruxue.

Upon hearing this, Ji Ruxue did not hesitate. She drew out her sword with one hand and held the bag on her waist with the other. Under the protection of the female disciples of Huanyinfang, she prepared to climb over the wall to escape. After all, she was standing under a rain of arrows and if she took a deep breath and leaped, she would be shot into a hedgehog in mid-air.

However, just as she ran to the wall, the rain of arrows became sparse, and then dozens of Xuanming Sect assassins jumped in from all directions of the courtyard, attacking them with knives.

Hand-to-hand combat was the most brutal. A disciple of Huanyinfang had just forced back a killer from Xuanming Sect with one palm when she was hit in the calf. She lost her balance and several long swords came at her, hacking her to death.

Seeing another sister fall, Ji Ruxue and the remaining disciples of Huanyinfang had no time to feel sad. They worked together to tear open a gap, jumped over the courtyard wall, and came to the street.

But as soon as they landed, they saw the streets full of Xuanming Sect's killers. When they saw them, they immediately shouted and rushed towards them.

Fortunately, most of the Xuanming Sect killers on the street did not even have a minor star rank. With the desperate fighting of Ji Ruxue and several other sisters from the Huanyinfang, they actually managed to break out, but two more sisters died in the chaos of swords.

At this time, the only disciple from Huanyinfang who was the leader was by Ji Ruxue's side. She was injured in many places and there were several arrows stuck in her calves, but she still gritted her teeth and protected Ji Ruxue.

After running across two streets with difficulty, the disciple from Huanyinfang finally couldn't hold on any longer, his legs went weak, and he fell to the ground.

Ji Ruxue turned around and wanted to help her, but she pushed her away.

"Don't worry about me, take the Fire Ganoderma and leave the city, quickly!"

Ji Ruxue gritted her teeth and finally chose to turn around and leave. Then, she heard the screams of the disciple from Huanyinfang.

She didn't run too far before she was caught up by the Xuanming Sect's killers on horseback.

Although she wanted to use Qinggong to shake off the pursuers behind her, she had used Qinggong to travel earlier and then fought for a while, so she was exhausted. She could only turn into the alleys on the side of the road and try to use the complex terrain to shake them off.

But as soon as she entered an alley, several killers jumped down from the high walls on both sides. Although she fought hard to kill them, she accidentally inhaled the powder that one of the killers sprinkled on her before he died.

As a killer organization, the Xuanming Sect is naturally an expert in using poison. Even though Ji Ruxue only inhaled a little, she immediately felt dizzy.

However, she did not have time to use her internal energy to detoxify, and with her mid-level strength, she could not sit down. She could only rely on her willpower to move forward.

She staggered out from another exit of the alley, and then she saw that there were already assassins from the Xuanming Sect patrolling that exit, and someone had already discovered her.

"Am I... going to die here?" Ji Ruxue's eyes flashed with despair, and then she pulled off the pocket at her waist, ready to destroy the Fire Ganoderma on the spot.

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind her and reached out to hold down her hand which had already taken out the box.

Ji Ruxue was stunned at first, then turned around and stabbed the person behind her with a sword with all her strength, but the person easily grabbed her wrist. Then a familiar voice came to her ears.

"This is the third time we've met. If it's not fate, it doesn't make sense."

"It's you again..." Only then did Ji Ruxue see clearly the face of the person in front of her... Shen Ye.
