The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.

When you focus on one thing and ignore the danger that may be behind you, the danger comes suddenly in an unexpected way.

Sun Tu has made such a mistake now, and he will also face such dangers.

Escorting those Liao spies forward, he was planning in his heart, this matter will soon spread, and I am afraid that some people will suddenly intervene and take these spies from their own hands. After all, as long as these people's mouths are pried open, it is a great achievement, and no one will take much credit.

However, Sun Tu didn't take this matter too seriously, at this time he was not much interested in finding out the Liao State spies, after experiencing the previous things, he had already despaired of the Great Song Dynasty, in his opinion, no matter how hard he tried, he was afraid that he would not be able to pull back this behemoth that was about to fall into the abyss, unless it was completely shattered, everything was up to him!

But this is by no means easy, and it is not even much easier to contend with the inevitability of history. But now that the decision has been made, it is incumbent upon us to do it without hesitation, just so that those who are truly innocent will suffer less calamity! Thinking of this, Sun Tu's gaze unconsciously swept to both sides of the street, where the people were looking at them with fear and hesitation.

Although their team had already gone a long way, it was not too far from the hotel and the tofu shop, but the people here saw with their own eyes that they were like thunder and captured everyone inside, and this kind of deterrent effect was not small, so it was inevitable that they would be afraid.

Sun Tu's gaze swept over them, originally to look at the front of the long street. But suddenly, my heart moved, and I noticed a trace of abnormality, and someone actually leaned forward! This is completely out of line with the atmosphere of the scene, because at this time the people are shrinking back as much as possible out of fear and worry, who would lean forward so boldly? They must have other intentions!

When this idea was quickly born, Sun Tu was already on guard. Just as he stared at him and opened his mouth to let the people around him come forward to take him, a bowstring clanged from the side front, followed by a sharp whistling after the sharp weapon tore through the air.

As soon as the sound started, five sharp arrows had blocked all the retreat paths of Sun Tu who was on the horse from three directions, and the first arrow hit him directly to the throat. The speed and fierceness of the attack have long exceeded the height that the bow and arrow in the ordinary army can reach, and in the blink of an eye, the threat of life and death is already in front of you.

The guards on the flanks behind them reacted quickly enough that when the arrow struck, they had already let out a cry and pounced with their swords. But after all, it was half a beat slower, and they were still two steps away from Sun Tu, and the arrow was only half a foot from his throat. And the other party had already calculated everything in place, no matter whether Sun Tu was lying down or dodging from the side, there were arrows flying closely, so that he could not hide.

In addition, in the crowd on both sides of the street, five people also jumped out at this time, and they all showed short knives in their hands, and stabbed Sun Tu's body without any scruples. This killing game was arranged in a thoughtful manner, almost cutting off all of Sun Tu's way of life, and it seemed that he only had one result left - death!

On the other side, a pair of eyes were staring closely at Sun Tu, who had entered the realm of mortality, with madness, pleasure and more ease hidden inside. As long as Sun Tu dies, the threat he has felt these days will disappear, and as for the storm caused by the assassination of high-ranking officials in the court on the street, he believes that the backer behind him can definitely be settled, after all, he wants Sun Tu to die more than himself.

But his wish was shattered in an instant!

If Sun Tu hadn't been surprised by something strange in the moment before the assassination came, and thus tightened his body and had taken precautions, I am afraid that this time he could really be killed. But he was prepared, so when the arrow came to him, he reacted immediately!

Since it is no longer possible to dodge low, you can only find something to block the deadly arrow. But at this time, it was too late to draw the knife, so he made a quick decision at this dangerous juncture, and his legs slammed into the horse's belly, and then pulled the reins hard, so that the horse under the crotch suddenly neighed, and the front hooves were quickly raised, and his body followed the manpower, and he blocked the arrow that came straight ahead.

I only heard a pop, and the arrow full of strength sank into the soft belly of the horse, but it failed to penetrate the thick body of the horse, and half of the arrow body remained outside, so naturally it was impossible to hurt Sun Tu behind at all. And Sun Tu's body also took advantage of the situation to twist, and easily dodged the other four arrows that were only used for blockade, without any damage.

But at this moment, the fastest one had already pounced in front of him, and the short knife stabbed him in the waist like lightning. But at this moment, he heard a clear drink, and Sun Tu, who was originally facing him, had already turned around with the horse under his crotch and turned into a face of him. At the same time, the two horses' hooves, which had been standing tall, had fallen with a bang, and slammed on his chest.

Sun Tu's mount is the best in the army, running extremely fast, and the strength is amazing, and now it is under the sudden force of serious injury, this time it has the strength to open the mountain and crack the rock, and it is solid in the chest at this moment, and suddenly his sternum is shattered, and his body falls down like mud, and then the horse's hooves step on him again, and directly trample him to death on the spot.

It was also at this time that the others had just arrived in front of Sun Tu at this moment, and then they were shocked by the tragic scene in front of them. Only this slow, the saber on Sun Tu's waist was already out of the sheath, and the cold light flashed, hitting the neck of one of them, and immediately cut off his entire head into the air, and then Sun Tu's body had also jumped up from his horse, avoiding the stabbing that followed.

It was only then that the steed fell to the ground, blood gushing out, staining a large area of bluestone floor. The horse that was used as a shield by Sun Tu to block the fatal blow and trample one person to death finally fell seriously injured, looking at the situation is really not good.

But Sun Tu had already gotten rid of the absolute danger just now. Although the man was in mid-air, the knife was already in his hand, and when he turned his wrist, he had already protected his body, and he had cut off all the short knives that had stabbed in front of him.

At this time, the soldiers in the rear had quickly rushed up, shouting: "Protect the general, capture this moment!" He was already slaughtering the Assassins on all sides. Seeing that the assassination was missed, Sun Tu was about to counterattack after he landed, and these people's reactions were also extremely fast and decisive, and as soon as they whistled, they turned around and rushed towards the crowd.

The crowd was even more panicked at this time, this is a situation that the people of Bianjing have never encountered, and someone actually assassinated them in the street, killing the high-ranking officials of the imperial court. They didn't know what to do, but when they saw the Assassins suddenly rushing towards them, they immediately let out a burst of screams and scattered like a swarm of frightened ants.

And this is exactly what the assassins wanted to see, they were dressed no different from ordinary people, and as soon as they threw away their weapons, they had already blended into the scattered crowd, causing the guards to want to pursue, and for a while they didn't know which side to pursue.

And Sun Tu had reacted quickly at this time, and immediately shouted: "Defend the prisoners first, and then go to the restaurant over there!" He could see very clearly that those cold arrows that almost cost him came from the second-floor window of the restaurant.

At that moment, more than a dozen people decisively rushed to the restaurant over there and rushed straight in, which frightened everyone inside and begged for mercy. Sun Tu, on the other hand, had retreated to Di Yingyang and the prisoners, with a horizontal knife in front of his chest, always vigilant for a possible new round of assassination. When he was almost killed, he didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

Di Yingyang's face behind him turned white and red, his breathing was short, and his eyes were sweeping around, but he didn't know what he was looking for or what he was looking at. In his more than 30 years of life, he had never encountered such a situation, and he was assassinated on the streets of Tokyo. Even if these assassinations didn't come straight at him, these threats still went straight to his heart, making him a little unspeakably excited in addition to fear: "Three...... Saburo, who are they, and why did they want to assassinate you? ”

"I don't know, I have many enemies, but there are not many who can do and dare to do all this." Sun Tu didn't dare to think too much about it at this time, and a pair of eyes were still constantly sweeping over the fleeing people in front of him, in case someone took advantage of the chaos and killed him by surprise.

But under his strict defense, there was no more assassination, until several soldiers quickly retreated to him and surrounded him, so that no matter how cold arrows attacked, it would be difficult to pose any threat to him.

"Let's go." On the second floor of the restaurant in front, the man sighed quite unwillingly: "Sun Qianli is really good, this will not kill you, but it will expose my killing intent." They must be sent out of Tokyo as soon as possible......" he said, and he quickly descended the stairs and scattered with the people outside before the soldiers arrived.

After only a while, the street that was originally noisy had become empty, except for one person and two horses who fell to the ground, only Sun Tu and others remained. A moment later, the subordinates who searched the restaurant over there had also returned, and in addition to the more than a dozen people in the building, two of them also held three short crossbows and two pots of arrows in their hands.

No wonder the sudden arrow was so domineering, it was not sent from a bow, but a crossbow machine. In this way, today's assassination is even more serious, after all, crossbows are not like knives and guns, but forbidden objects prohibited by the imperial court!

"General, the back window on the second floor of the restaurant was opened, and there were footprints of someone leaving, and they still left these." A soldier stepped forward and reported: "But in order to prevent them from cheating, we also brought everyone in the restaurant." ”

Sun Tu nodded: "Take someone back first, and then talk about it after the trial." After this incident, he was convinced that someone in the capital wanted to kill him, so he had to investigate it carefully to see what the reason was.
