Legend of the Moon Sword
Welcome (1)

Xie Jia, the little girl still closed her eyes. Didn't open it for 5 hours. His entire body felt cold, his lips turning blue. Now he looks more like a corpse.

Yan Yan bit his fingers anxiously. His gaze had not escaped Xie Jia since earlier. Zhi Yuo did nothing. He is also confused as to how. Every few seconds he checked Xie Jia's pulse which was still throbbing even though it had weakened.

"How is this..we should how?.." Yan Yan frustrated. He bit his thumb until it bled. A sense of panic and worry lingered on his chest.

"I'm sure he poisoned something" said Zhi Yuo. Yeah, maybe he said without evidence like this. But the symptoms that Xie Jia experienced more refer to the symptoms of poisoning. What exactly did he eat into this poisoning?.

"Is it because of dinner yesterday?.." Zhi Yuo. There was suspicion on his face.

Was this what Lin Mei did? Why is it so cruel?.

Xie Jia suddenly made a sound. Zhi Yuo and Yan Yan Yan were surprised at the sound he caused. But it was not happy news when Xie Jia choked and then spit blood from her mouth. Without opening his eyes at all.

Yan Yan Yan picked up the cloth in a hurry, dabbing the side of Xie Jia's lips gently. While Xie Jia felt a sense of tightness on her chest.

"It looks like we should take him to the healer," Zhi Yuo suggested.

Yan Yan shook his head, "We can't do it. You know that the waiter here can't leave the house unless there's a need?"

Zhi Yuo just remembered, that the servants here live like in a cage. They can't get out as they please. Physicians cannot enter this residence. Actually, what kind of system is applied here?.

Naturally, the one taking over in this residence was Lin Mei the butler. While old and sickly Mr. Gu could only accept and run his old days and run his business. He paid little attention to his own home. I don't know how many servants his wife gave him.

"Then, then..." Zhi Yuo stroked his chin while thinking. However, Xie Jia must be given immediate treatment. Or the little boy will be in danger.

Zhi Yuo instantly remembered something.

"Says Lin Mei is leaving tonight. Is that true?" Zhi Yuo asked.

Yan Yan Yan slightly recalled something, then nodded.

"Well, we're going to the doctor tonight, there's a chance we're going out" said Zhi Yuo.

"You think we can go out arbitrarily when Lin Mei leaves? It's not that easy. The other servants must be guarding the exit and the only way is through the backyard. But it's also still guarded!" Yan Yan denied.

Zhi Yuo thought again. He racked his brain how they could get out safely and took Xie Jia to the healer tonight as well. After all Zhi Yuo also had a myriad of plans in his head, which was to follow Lin Mei's entourage from behind, his intention to investigate what was really happening to Mr. Gu's family.

"Let's go," Zhi Yuo got the idea. Soon he approached Yan Yan and whispered something in his ear.

After hearing all the plans that Zhi Yuo had devised, Yan agreed to it and they will be in action tonight.

"Is everything ready?" Lin Mei walked out of the residence. While the other waiter greeted him kindly.

"All the needs are ready, Senior please sit in the stretcher," said one of the servants.

Today Lin Mei was going to visit Master Gu's wife outside the city. Lady Gu Fei. It just so happened that tomorrow he was coming and Lin Mei decided to prepare for his arrival. He asked permission from the host and decided to leave tonight.

Lin Mei walked into the palanquin accompanied by another servant who was her subordinate. Considering that he's a senior here. His hand held a piece of mail that he got some time ago before he left. As usual, it was a secret letter between her and Lady Fei.

That night, not long after the departure of Lin Mei and her entourage, Zhi Yuo and Yan Yan prepared to execute the plan.

Zhi Yuo peeked out from the window, he pointed his thumb at Yan Yan marked with a green light. Yan Yan nodded, he carried the weakly lying Xie Jia then covered her with a blanket. Zhi Yuo jumped one step from the window then gave a warning out of the residence.

The condition of the residence which was quite quiet and dark made the fur of Yan Yan's saddle stand up. He was still worried about Xie Jia, but he was also afraid of a misstep when coming out of this residence. He was afraid of being discovered.

Zhi Yuo and Yan Yan settled down, they reached the backyard of Gu's residence. When he got there, the eyes of Zhi Yuo who was as sharp as an eagle looked from a distance. Someone's standing guard over there. Fortunately, there was only one male servant. He was standing by the back door.

Zhi Yuo turned his head towards Yan Yan, placing his index finger in front of his lips beckoning to remain silent. Yan Yan nodded, he leaned against the wall, setting his own breath.

While Zhi Yuo was thinking of a way to safely break through the exit, Xie Jia coughed loudly and it caused the attention of the goalkeeper up front.

"Hey! Who's there?!" Shouts from a distance.

"Geez..!" Yan Yan whispered in panic. He was increasingly hugging Xie Jia's body tightly.

"It's my business" Zhi Yuo raised the cloth he was wearing up to his nose. He looks like a ninja now.

The waiter looked up at the source of the strange sound he heard. But because of the minimal lighting he could not see anything.

Right after he turned around, a rustling sound came out from the bushes. Zhi Yuo leaped onto the courtyard wall with his agility. The servant gaped when he saw the shadowy figure with lightning speed that jumped up the wall.

The servant was surprised not to play until his whole body felt stiff. When he wanted to shout for help, Zhi Yuo first put up the horses and landed his feet on the butler.

The loud sound of Zhi Yuo's feet pounding with the butler rumbled. The waiter collapsed to the ground with the side of the head already bruised. Maybe a little more he'll die.

"Oh, I guessed it, I still have martial arts," Zhi Yuo muttered proudly.

Then he waved his hand at Yan Yan marked that the situation was safe.

"The door is open, now let's go" he said before leaving Yan Yan behind.

Yan Yan nodded, his gaze still misgivings. After feeling safe, she caught up with Zhi Yuo who had opened the back yard door.

They were warmly welcomed by the outside view that looked brighter than Mr. Gu's own residence. More precisely this residence is located in the middle of the city.

"Go, take Xie Jia to the healer," Zhi Yuo said.

Yan Yan Yan furrowed his brows, "What? Then what about you?".

Zhi Yuo raised his face cover once again, this time he smiled obliquely. With a silly laugh he simply replied, "Secret~".

Hearing that made Yan Yan cluck in annoyance. Then he sighed softly.

"Rapid back Zhi Yuo. I'm sure Xie Jia will be looking for you,"

Zhi Yuo was speechless, he looked at Yan Yan long ago. Then he smiled thinly.

"Sure, I'll be right back,"

Zhi Yuo waved his hand at Yan Yan and advised him to be careful. Yan Yan returned a wave of his hand. Zhi Yuo's silhouette slowly disappeared as the figure of the little boy started to go away towards somewhere.

Zhi Yuo moved his legs faster, even he occasionally ran.

"I'm sure, not too far away, yet" he muttered.

What he was looking for now was Lin Mei's entourage who was reportedly going to visit Mr Gu's wife's residence. When he came out of the back gate, he saw a group of people in waiter clothes carrying a stretcher not far from him when he managed to get out.

It was a pity that as he said goodbye to Yan Yan, the ring moved away quickly. But Zhi Yuo will still be looking for her.

There is a truth that he must reveal. Starting from the poisoned Xie Jia and Master Gu who are getting sicker by the day.

Instantly he recalled Xie Jia's innocent face, smiled at him and gave him plain bread to eat.

"If only I wouldn't let him have dinner with another waiter.." Zhi Yuo nodded with regret. He knows, it's not his fault. But still he felt guilty.

After a long walk, Zhi Yuo heard a voice from a group of people chatting accompanied by a stretcher bell. He recognized that voice!. He quickly ran towards the origin of the sound, and sure enough.

Lin Mei's entourage was there.

The few servants behind were chatting cheerfully. While Zhi Yuo was sneaking around from behind so that he would not be caught.

He followed the group until he entered the forest. The forest was not very dense, there was a path that connected it directly to the outside of the city. This is where the city becomes the destination.

"Pst..Hey, did you hear anything in the back?" - Waiter A.

"uh? No, what's the matter?" - Waiter B.

"Ah.no, I just heard something from the bushes just now," - Waiter A.

"Ck! You think too much. Maybe it's a cat or an insect of the night, don't get too thought out," - Waiter B.

Zhi Yuo heard that clearly. His feet were firmly on the branches of the tree. His eyes peeked out from the sidelines of the dense foliage. Now he really looks like a ferocious eagle ready to hit its prey.

"Until where will your badness continue? Lin Mei's..".
