The Flower Of War

Chapter 26: The Last Mission?

Later that night, Yiu prepared to go to Nanjing to meet her brother, you could say this was the last thing Yiu had done when he was bored.

Usually he will only go quietly not so far from the palace area as in the market or to the city center.

He now also reasoned to be sick and tricked the court physician with his artificial poison. As a result, the physician asked that no one visit Yiu for 3 days because of his infectious disease and in exchange for him, he involves Chichi to disguise himself again with an additional veil on his face if at any time someone visits him.

Chichi initially balked but what was okay for his daughter's behavior had changed completely and after some coercion and additional killing gazes from Yiu's bead Chichi finally agreed to it for the umpteenth time.

The poison that Yiu drank actually only caused reddish spots all over his body but it only lasted an hour, after which the effect would disappear by itself.

Yiu wore a black man's clothes not forgetting the black cloth on his face to hide his true identity.

"Be careful Princess. Hurry back," worried Chichi.

"You take it easy I'll be right back."

As usual, Yiu opened his bedroom window and climbed up onto the roof of the pavilion, jumped onto the apple tree in the backyard of his pavilion then jumped down from the palace walls.

Yiu immediately rode the horse he had prepared earlier near the palace walls with a small lantern that lit up next to the black unraveling horse.

Yiu mamacu his horse penetrated into the forest towards QiuWang Supervision Hall in Nanjing.

Yiu drove his horse overnight in the middle of the dense forest until he finally reached the edge of the forest and a few meters in front of it was seen a village that looks still very quiet.

Yiu decides to rest for a while in a tree and eat the provisions given by Chichi before entering the village which he believes is one of the villages in Nanjing.

While eating his bakpao, Yiu overhears a cry for help from a woman in the forest.

Spontaneous Yiu turned to the left right looking for where the voice came from.

Feeling that something was wrong Yiu went to look for the source of the voice in the darkness.

He deliberately left his horse and lantern for fear that if it was a kidnapping he would be easily known.

His eyesight at night was quite good let alone his instincts and hearing.

Yiu walked ashore through the dark forest following the origin of the voice.

Soon Yiu saw a large and spacious rickety cottage lit by a torch near the door.

In front of the cottage were seen two burly men seemed to be standing guard in front of the cottage and both were half drunk to see them drinking a jug of wine in their hands.

Yiu sneaked silently walking towards the side of the hut and peered inside through the slightly open old wooden window.

Yiu's bead widened instantly, inside the spacious cottage there are a lot of teenage girls numbering about 15 people with their hands tied and mouths gagged with cloth and faces of fear printed clearly on the faces of those who are held hostage in the wrong one corner of the room was watched by four burly men in the middle of the room.

Their fear grew when a fat man walked in and approached them with a horse whip and a group of five men behind the fat man.

"Hey hey calm down I won't hurt you pretty girl, look what I brought for you guys."

The fat man crouched down in front of one of the purple-clothed girls who looked extremely frightened and the man poked his cheeks mischievously.

Then the fat man turned his head to the side and moved his head slightly, giving the command code to his men.

The five men nodded and brought the three girls with their mouths clad in the cloth they had just kidnapped and immediately tied their hands and feet one by one.

The three girls had rebelled and tried to escape but they were just a weak girl who would not be able to face the five burly men like them.

"I brought you new friends to see they're beautiful like you, right? Hahaha soon I will be rich because tomorrow I will sell you all hahaha."

The fat man laughed so hard, his maniac traced all the girls he managed to kidnap.

"I want that beautiful girl to quickly take her to my room and you just pick one of them at will but still have someone on guard," said the fat man while pointing at the girl dressed in green in the middle of the group and waltzing away to a room in the back corner of the cottage followed by a naughty smile that adorned the faces of the men that fat.

The green-clothed girl appointed by the fat man tried to rebel as two burly men forced her frail body to be brought into their master's room.

"Damn, this can't be allowed!" Yiu growled weakly, his hands clenching even more tightly at his hiding place.

Yiu immediately sauntered away a little away from the cottage, he reached into the cloth bag he had brought along during the trip.

Yiu took out a smoke grenade from inside his bag then pulled the trigger and threw it to a place not far from the cottage to distract them.

Now there is no time to go to the Supervision Hall which is quite far from this forest and it will take a long time to gather the sleeping villagers. It was likely that this criminal would escape after hearing the commotion in the village.

The only way is to fight them head-on but Yiu still has to free the hostages first which will soon be the criminals' dinner.

*From ...

Duars ...

Duar* ...

Three smoke grenades exploded inside the forest not far from the hut and made the guard standing guard in front of the hut instantly alert.

Yiu immediately hid himself near the cottage waiting for the right time to free the girls.

Yiu's efforts bore fruit, before long the fat man and his five men came out and rushed towards the explosion they heard with a machete and dagger.

When the man was caught off guard Yiu immediately smothered his mouth and slit the man's throat with a knife from inside his bag until he collapsed on the ground.

Yiu quickly stepped in and approached the girls who had embraced each other due to fear added to the sudden arrival of someone with a face covered in cloth and dressed all in black and carrying the blood-soaked knife in his hand was running towards them.

Yiu crouched down and immediately untied the girl in front of him with a knife as she opened her face cover.

"Calm down, you don't have to be afraid, you'll be safe. I'll help you get out of this place."

The fear of the girls began to disappear in place with a sense of security because there was someone who would drag them out of hell.

After finishing untieing the entire girl, Yiu directed the group of girls to immediately get out of the cottage.

But when it was about to reach the doorstep of a fat person with several burly men behind him first stood blocking their way out.

"Wah wah .. it turns out that someone managed to prank us and tried to bring my gold hahaha. How dare you!"

The fat man growled furiously and immediately raised his left hand giving orders to his men.

Yiu immediately pushed the burly man backwards and fought them one by one.

"Run fast!!" yiu shouted as he fought against the five fat man's sturdy man and tried to make way for the girls to escape.

Let alone five, on the battlefield first when Yiu was still joined by military units alone Yiu could defeat ten tough men with only his bare hands.

But now the different bodies that Yiu was currently occupying were weak enough that Yiu had to be more ingenious in carrying out his mission.

One by one the five men collapsed to the ground covered in blood.

The fat man growled furiously and intervened himself to kill Yiu with the whip of his horse.

Yiu moved to the left right avoiding the whip that was pointing at him.

In between his dodging sessions he steals the opportunity to hit the abdomen and face.

The fat man staggered back from Yiu's punch and was caught by a young man.

"Sir you okay?"

The young man came along with nearly fifteen other young men.

"Hurry up and kill him!"

The fat man bellowed furiously while pointing at Yiu who was still on standby in his position. The young men took out a machete from its sheath and ran around Yiu.

"There is no other way."

*Dorr ...

Dorr ...

Dorr ...

Dorr* ...

Yiu pulled out the gun he had tucked inside his clothes.

The barrage of explosions due to the lesion of bullets in the blink of an eye managed to make half of the young man who was about to attack Yiu collapse to the ground before successfully approaching.

The remaining youth stared fearfully at Yiu more precisely towards the object held by Yiu and hesitated to approach the item a step.

"Wait for what else to kill him or you guys I'm gonna kill!"

The fat man exclaimed furiously and pointed his index finger sharply towards Yiu.

The young men moved simultaneously attacking Yiu.

The sound of consecutive gunshots rang out again and hit the young men. There are three more young men left.

As a result of being too focused on the two targets in front of him Yiu unconsciously someone behind him walked over by holding a large wood.

*Bugh ...

Dorr ...

Dorr ...

Dorr ...

Dorr* ...

Yiu fell to the ground as the wood hit his neck but before his consciousness was gone he managed to kill all the young men and their leaders before closing his eyes.
