Chapter 405: The Mystery of the Short Sword (2)

Standing at this crossroads, Tian Kang carefully observed the surrounding situation, and did not find anything unusual about it, but he did not dare to relax in the slightest.

He ordered the two guards next to him to ride first and turn the street corner and go to the front to explore the way.

His approach may seem overly cautious, but it is not unnecessary.

Because, after turning this street and entering the long street in the east of the city, there was no Praetorian Guard along the way.

Moreover, although the road from this street to Qinglongmen is not too long, because it leads to the inner city, pedestrians, cars and horses are very scarce, and the risk of being robbed has increased a lot, so it is natural to be cautious.

After seeing the two secret guards in front of him who were responsible for exploring the path sent a safety signal, Tian Kang signaled the prisoner car to move on.

This time, instead of taking the lead, he followed closely behind the prisoner cart.

The bulky prisoner car turned the street very smoothly and walked onto the relatively narrow road of the long street in the east of the city.

On weekdays, this long street in the east of the city is sparsely populated than Tianqiao Street. And today, because of the decisive battle of the flyover, people rushed there to see the excitement, and the pedestrians here are even more scarce.

And the farther they went, the more the guards noticed that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians, and they didn't even see a single figure for a long time.

Tian Kang's eyes did not look around, but were firmly fixed on the huge iron lock that was locking the back door of the prisoner car.

At this time, he had already taken precautions and had a plan in his heart to deal with the mutation-

Once someone comes to rob the prisoner car, there is no chance of winning if they have to fight hard with each other with only these few people on their own side.

Therefore, the best way is to take the prisoners in the prisoner car as hostages, so that the other party will be bogeyed, and finally have to retreat.

And it turns out that Tian Kang was indeed extremely prescient.

The prisoner car had just traveled a short distance on this long street in the east of the city, and the two secret guards who were walking in front were suddenly shot down by the speeding hidden weapons!

Frightened, the other guards jumped off their horses and hid behind their horses, all the while trying to search for the direction of the secret weapon.

And the secret guard who drove the car was the most clever. I saw him roll sharply, and then rolled directly under the car, and then rolled again, and rolled under the car.

At present, it can be called the safest place, and the secret guard who drove the car couldn't help but be proud of his cleverness and wit.

But just after this short moment, he suddenly felt a flower in front of him, and then, his neck tightened again!

Before he struggled to breathe, his scattered eyes finally vaguely saw that the bottom of the carriage, which had been originally covered with a layer of iron plates, had a big hole at some point. At this moment, a thick black iron chain poked out of the cave and was tightly wrapped around his neck......

All this happened silently, without alarming the guards next to the car who were panicked and dodging the hidden weapons.

Although Tian Kang had not yet reached the point of panic, his mind was all on another matter.

As soon as the two secret guards in front of him fell off their horses, Tian Kang also turned over and dismounted.

I saw him jump to the back door of the prisoner car, take out the key that was turned out of Qiu Changshou's body from his sleeve, and stepped forward to open the iron lock on the door.

Until he opened the car door, Tian Kang's mind was still thinking about that question inexplicably-

Where the hell did that dagger go?

Then, suddenly, he found the answer.

As soon as the car door opened, the short sword that made him think about it and couldn't rest assured flashed before his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, there was a soft "plop" sound, which was directly inserted into his throat!

The secret guards hiding behind the horses, their eyes were staring at the street corner in front of them, ready to guard against another hidden weapon, but no one noticed Tian Kang's actions, let alone found that this Lord Tian had died honorably in a daze.

Therefore, when they noticed that someone was approaching them from the back of the car, the guards thought it was their own person, so they didn't look back to confirm it.

It wasn't until two of the guards were suddenly stabbed in the back that the rest of the guards realized that something was wrong.

When they looked back, they found that the person who attacked them from behind looked familiar.

After seeing the mud on each other's bodies, the guards suddenly remembered that the two people who stabbed in the back turned out to be the pair of stupid brothers who scuffled together in the snow under the overpass not long ago!

Intrigues, tricks, traps, traps......

All of a sudden, all the terrible thoughts poured into the minds of the guards.

But none of them could really figure out how the brothers came to be behind them.

If these guards can also be like the secret guard who drove the car just now, they found the big hole under the car.

Moreover, they can also see the mysteriously missing short sword like Tian Kang.

Then, give them plenty of time to think about it.

Then, they may be able to sort out the ins and outs of the matter.

Sadly, however, none of these "ifs" and "thens" happened, so they were destined to be a bunch of fools.

When these secret guards were still stunned at the pair of stupid brothers and stupid brothers, and they couldn't figure out the situation, they were quickly outflanked behind them.

Next, it was a battle without suspense.

A few secret guards who had already been frightened, more than two dozen masters of the Loyalty and Righteousness Alliance, plus a heroine Luo Er girl from the Xiuyun Sword Sect, and Lu Yuanfeng who was specially sent to protect Luo Er girl.

Those poor dark guards, where is there any chance of survival?

After eliminating the guards, everyone immediately took all the corpses and horses with them.

Even the few puddles of blood left on the ground were crushed by the wheels and trampled by human feet, becoming less obvious.

Soon after, the prisoner carriage, which was originally pretending to be an ordinary carriage, was escorted by several masters of the Loyal and Righteous League wearing the official clothes of the Secret Guard, and successfully passed the checkpoint at the east gate and left the new capital.

After leaving the city, the prisoner car was taken to a very secluded place.

All the people in the prisoner cart got out of the car and took a few light carriages that had been waiting there for a long time.

They then broke into pieces and set out in teams, where they soon disappeared in different locations and were never to be found again.

The original prisoner car was also driven away and finally thrown into a mountain stream that is inaccessible.
