The Moon In Darkness
Ch.52 Mysterious Knight
"is this safe?" assertively knight Yong while observing the surroundings, watching if anything looked suspicious.
"there's no commander!" the two soldiers in front of him.
"good, keep watch over this place, because this place is the most vulnerable place in the capital." said the knight Yong and passed away to check every corner of the capital.
"astaga, that man is really terrible.Did he not know how to smile?" one of the guards stretched his body and complained.
"stop, if anyone hears we can die." said his friend who did not want to get into trouble.
"by the way somehow the moon is not visible at all, right?"
"really, seeing that I was like being in the demon world, terrible! what's the name, dark moon?" babble them to eliminate the feeling of excessive.
"that's three months of death. hahaha!"
While they were chatting and laughing, they did not feel that someone had managed to pass by and enter the night market zone.
"this.. strange, why is it that in the night market there is no one guarding it?" muttered An when he saw the atmosphere of the market that was very quiet.
old bastard, why is he late in telling me that the contributors to slavery are going to have a meeting tonight?!' his inner self recalled some of the replies sent by the old grandfather.
"but why is the market so quiet?" muttered An again, he then sensed an existence behind him and immediately turned to look, right behind his body was a dark blue-robed man wearing a half-face black mask.
"em. hi?" greet the man stiffly.
"long time no see? master An?" he continued with a bow to pay his respects.
"who? I never remember giving my name to just anyone." An sneered as he looked at the man cynically.
"oh. My heart hurts because you don't remember me. It hurts, you know?" the man then walked over and tilted his head, "really don't remember?" he went back to An.
who the hell is this crazy person?!' An is now trying to remember the figure in front of him, he then remembered the man he met when he first entered the market area and proud of the market.
"ahs.. Master Eggs huh?" murmured An was unsure of the answer.
The man smiled bitterly, "anu, not egg but Yelu, sir."
"oh. yeah, that's right." An turned his face away and with a sense of innocence, he tried to leave Yelu there.
"hey! where are you going?" yelu exclaimed as if trying to stop the girl.
"is that your business? scram, eggs." ledek An who clucked irritably.
"well, it's none of my business, but you can't go there."
whatisthis? it felt as if my heart was pierced with Yelu's inner knife while holding onto his chest.
An was silent, behind his fox mask, An's eyes implied a question, why?
The man smiled back, he raised his index finger and glued his lip, "the slave shop is having their regular meeting, you know the 'triangle'.."
"triangle? why do they always make weird names for it?" tanya An was very curious.
"i don't know, obviously they-ah I seem to be bothering you right now, then see you!" said Yelu who hung her sentence in the middle.
An who was already curious, pulled the man's sleeve and asked him to tell more.
"hm, I may, but there are conditions.."
"what?! say quickly!"
"you must remember my name, if we meet again."
An quickly nodded and Yelu whispered the secret, of course they should be as close as possible so that no one eavesdropped.
10 Minutes passed, An and Yelu finally separated and An would still go to the slave shop, he told Yelu if he was interested in signing the contract.
"interested? you have to learn more if you want to lie Miss Lian." muttered Yelu, she went into a small alley near the statue of the emperor, where there were some guards who had fainted.
"you saw that one, right? she is the fourth Miss of the Wu family, the one who has long since disappeared and is now rumored to be back, as well as the one who has bought you as her knight." yelu continued when he saw the two men who were tying the guards.
"yes. we saw it clearly, but why do you call him master, you know if he's female?" ask the man who has curly hair and a little short, his face is cute when compared to a decent man.
"he'll kill me if I say he's a girl." said the black masked man smoothly.
"i.. still wonder, why do you, a stranger, want to help us? I mean, you help us to be stronger and to be able to use our chi flow." said the man, who looked more mature, had shoulder-length hair and sharp eagle eyes.
"why? I don't know, I just feel that if I have to help the girl, I have to help her whatever she does." Yelu said flatly, she then took off the black mask half her face, half her face, it is seen if he has a handsome face that can tempt all women, plus one small mole under the right eye.
"whatever happens, I will help to meet these little knights at the inauguration of the Wu family knights." the dark blue-robed man muttered as he nodded his head.
"how to? if you enter us in secret, the young general will kill us on the spot." - the man who looks more mature.
"don't worry, after all, he asked me for it himself a while ago."
triangle yes, if what the person is saying is true, means all involved will be present.' An chuckled softly and sped up his pace to pick up his partner.
Triangle meetings, meetings held by slave shops every 6 months, the people who attended were regular customers, contributors, and the owner of the store itself.
"what is this? once paddled two to three islands exceeded." when thinking about it had made the girl's heart flowery, all went well, there was not the slightest disturbance.
that's how it would be, if I acted. Just wait your turn, aunt.'
A few moments had passed and he reached the green auction, where a middle-aged man was standing and waiting for him.
"well, it's finally there. I think I should leave you and go alone." said the old man.
"you sulked? at your age who's not that young?" sahut An with a tone that is no less cynical.
Tired of arguing, they got onto the horse carriage and prepared to go to the Jiang family's slave shop.
"did the young master of the Jiang family do it himself? or is he being supported by the chiefs in his family?" tanya An opened the chat.
"he did it himself, you know, young people today his mind is so empty" the old man said, shrugging both shoulders.
"oh yeah, if you remember that, I haven't told you my name yet?" the old man then extended his arm to shake hands with An.
"i am Wenhua Yun, the owner of the famous auction and the most luxurious inn in the western Empire" he continued confidently.
"stop being formal, Mr. Wen." An clapped his arm quickly to do his 'version' handshake'.
"has the fox done its job?"
"well, he told me that if he had set up all the explosives, the girl you brought along with him might have come first" said Mr. Wen who felt the aura of his doll.
"how about this? you made it right, didn't you?" an asked again when he saw a doll dressed exactly like himself, complete with a white fox mask and a long black robe covering his entire body.
"yeah! you don't know how hasty I was when I saw if you asked for one more doll?! fortunately this doll only needed to walk and salute without taking out a word!" oceh Mr. Wen who was emotional from being tired.
"huh.if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have come to a meeting like this either." the old man murmured with a heavy heart.
An pensively pensively, "what is it that hard to move the 3 puppets together? you moved over 3 at your auction right?"
"it's not hard, I don't move it all at once. I told you, they're like the undead, dolls made of bodies that are no longer than 3 days after the heart stops, will obey me and do the usual activities," grandpa Wen then looked at An fixedly.
"the story varies if it is made from a body that has long died, I have to move it myself for it." continued the old man with a grunt annoyed.
"that means, Arum and the fox too? aren't you controlling them?" asked An surprised.
"sure! but I can see what they're doing, if it's not as ordered, I could have them turn into real corpses if I wanted to!" grandpa was full of pride.
like xxtv.' An chuckled at the old man's behavior before him.
After a lot of chatter, it was not felt if they had reached the slave shop. An kept the doll in [black lotus] and came down as a bodyguard for Mr. Wen.
"welcome Mr. Yun, I'm glad you came for the first time today." welcome the Young Master of the Jiang-Lee Jiang family.
The man who never unmasked his face, there was wind news that said if young master Jiang's face was ugly, for fear of being ridiculed and insulted, he chose to hide under the skin of others.
an Inner An, he currently desperately wanted to destroy the young man's face, yet he undoed his intention because it would only ruin his plan.
"your mask is good, I just found out that Mr. Yun has clown bodyguards." Lee Jiang sneered.
"yes, he has an interesting hobby."
be patient An. don't kill him here.' Inner Master Wen is afraid that the girl behind him will lose control.
at least glazed dong!' inner An emotion.
An could only nod and salute politely to Lee Jiang now, but in his heart he was eager to burn the rotten man's body.
Just as they wanted to enter, the voice of the important guest tonight finally appeared from behind them, "wow? isn't this grandpa doll?" greet Aunt Bao to them.
