Chapter 404: The Mystery of the Short Sword (1)
Running on this wide flyover street in the first place, Tian Kang's heart was always hanging, afraid that at some point, Han Bing, who had unpredictable skills and murderous without blinking, would suddenly chase after him.
The battle of the flyover has really scared Tian Kang to the point that he is almost gone.
The overpass, which symbolized the supreme divine power of Darong, collapsed in front of his eyes and turned into a pile of broken wood and scrap metal, which was already unbelievable.
And then, the second master of Da Rong, Shen Yunpeng, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, was knocked off the overpass by cold ice, and was kicked unconscious by him in mid-air, and almost fell directly into a meat pie.
But these were not enough to scare Tian Kang.
He still kept in mind the secret mission assigned to him by the head general, and at the right time gave the sniper order to the killers hiding in the crowd to kill Han Bing.
More than 20 chain crossbows fired nearly 100 crossbow arrows one after another, but they didn't even touch the edge of the ice. And when the young man dodged the crossbow arrows, the extremely strange way he showed was even more terrifying.
The most incredible thing is that this cold ice can keep spinning in the air, which is completely beyond the extreme of human beings.
Moreover, this young man also took those crossbow arrows that were originally used to attack him as his own weapons, forcing the dignified Chiyang Sect Master, the first master of Da Rong, Duxiao Qiong, to hurriedly dodge to protect himself.
It's a pity that the secret guards who escorted the prisoner car lost their lives in such a daze when they were caught off guard.
Witnessing these things happening, Tian Kang was indeed greatly shocked and shocked. He even began to suspect that this young man with earth-shattering abilities was not a mortal at all.
And then, his idea was immediately confirmed.
As soon as the ice party fell from the overpass, he launched a merciless slaughter of the killers who had just attacked him.
Seeing that the crossbow arrow in his hand was like a red poisonous snake, drilling bloody holes in the throats of those killers, Tian Kang knew that this young man must be the incarnation of the snake demon.
Otherwise, no matter how high his martial arts were, how could he see the faces of the killers who attacked him clearly and without any mistakes or omissions just by staying in the air for a short time?
Therefore, Han Bing must be able to use demon methods, and he can distinguish all those who want to harm him one by one. And among these people, naturally including the instigator behind him Tian Kang.
As soon as this idea was generated, Tian Kang's courage to sacrifice his life was completely crushed!
He just wanted to blend in with the crowd and get away as soon as possible. As for those killers, none of them will be able to escape the poisonous hands of the cold ice, so there is no need for him Tian Kang to worry about the matter of extermination.
The only thing he had to worry about was whether he would be wiped out by the ice like those killers.
But just as he saw the opportunity and was about to hide in a nearby dark alley, he was stopped by the Praetorian Guards, and was driven to the center of the street along with the others.
Fortunately, he Tian Kang has always been nimble-minded and quick to see an opportunity, and immediately thought that he could use the opportunity of escorting the prisoner car to escape from the deadly place that had been reduced to hell.
In this way, he not only saved his life, but also found an excellent excuse for himself to escape, and he could also explain to the head secretary afterwards.
Thinking of this, Tian Kang's heart couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Compared with Qiu Changshou, who bragged about how lucky he was, his luck was thousands of times better than him!
Just look at himself riding his horse at the moment, escorting the prisoner car he is responsible for, and he is still alive in this world.
And look at the guy again, the stiff body is lying on the horse's back, and the neck that is already too slender has been nailed through by a short sword......
Stiletto –
As soon as this word jumped into Tian Kang's mind, he was inexplicably startled, and suddenly remembered a very strange question.
When he finally saw Qiu Changshou's body, he only saw the bloody hole in his neck, but he didn't see the short sword.
But where did that dagger go?
It's just that the scene was too chaotic at that time, and almost everyone's eyes were fixed on the cold body, and it was true that no one would be distracted to pay attention to a corpse lying on the ground, let alone notice some subtle changes that had occurred on the corpse.
The only thing that is certain is that the dagger was definitely not taken back by the ice.
Among the rest of those who were closer to Qiu Changshou's body, except for the few secret guards who escorted the prisoner car, it was the Chiyang Sect Leader Duxiaoqiong.
Tian Kang thought that these secret guards should not have the courage to pull out the sword from Qiu Changshou's neck.
And that Chiyang Sect Master is a figure in the realm of merit. What's more, he is still Qiu Changshou's master, and it seems impossible for him to do anything to his disciple's corpse for a short sword.
But who else but these people could come close to the dagger?
For some reason, this seemingly unimportant issue always made Tian Kang feel very uneasy.
Tian Kang is not a disciple of the Chiyang Sect. But he was able to stand out among the Dark Guard Division, where the majority of the disciples of the Chiyang Sect were in the majority, and became Gongyu Sayan's true confidant, which shows his shrewdness in dealing with people.
From the moment Qiu Changshou fell from his sword, Tian Kang had clearly realized that Han Bing planned to hijack the prisoner car.
Subsequently, the secret guards who escorted the prisoner car were attacked and killed by Han Bing in mid-air, which strengthened Tian Kang's judgment.
Although he couldn't think of how Ice would eventually take to rob the car, he knew that the only way to stop Ice was to get the car away from the overpass and to a safe place.
And the safest place Tian Kang could think of was naturally the Dark Guard.
In fact, there is only the Dark Guard.
The bridge was destroyed and the wreckage was scattered to the ground.
Not only did it smash the bluestone pavement, but it also completely blocked the road where the prisoner cart was going, and it was no longer possible to reach the Dharma field through this path.
If you can't move forward, you can only retreat, and you can retreat directly to the Dark Guard.
The reason is very simple: since we know that someone is driving a prisoner car, it is unwise to choose to take a detour to the court when there is a serious shortage of manpower to escort the prisoner car.
The journey back to the Dark Guard Division has indeed been quite smooth, but Tian Kang knows very well that this is likely to be the credit of those Praetorian Guards.
Due to today's flyover competition, in addition to the complete blockade of the Praetorian Guards near the overpass, in fact, both sides of the entire flyover street are also guarded by the Praetorian Guards.
At the same time, in some corners of the street, there are also some secret agents of the Dark Guard scattered around.
Therefore, the prisoner car is very safe along the way.
Seeing that the front has arrived at the intersection of Tianqiao Street and Chengdong Long Street, turn left from the intersection here, and go north along Chengdong Long Street for a short distance to arrive at Qinglongmen.
Once you enter the Blue Dragon Gate, you have entered the inner city.
And the secretary of the Dark Guard Division is in the inner city, not far from the Qinglong Gate.
Tian Kang, who was still worried at this time, immediately raised his hand to signal, and asked the prisoner car behind him to stop at the corner of the street for the time being.
