Chapter 301: The Lurker in the Dark
Hearing Qin Yu's inquiry, Tian Luoluo who was opposite quickly recovered from her contemplation, her eyes flashed brightly.
"Of course it's what you do best."
"Are you going to capture the king again?"
"Otherwise? The means are not comparable, and the power is not as good, so the only way to decide the world is by beheading."
Looking at Qin Yu, Tian Luoluo couldn't help showing a smile on her face.
She really didn't expect that she just wanted to find a cannon fodder, but in the end she accidentally invited such a master.
The family clearly stipulates that Jindan and people above Jindan are not allowed to participate in the internal struggle of heirs, and those who violate the order will be beheaded.
After all, if there are no restrictions, who knows how many people they will spend money to invite, and how many family masters will be involved.
At that time, let's not mention how many people died in battle. It's just a question of whether the victors will hold grudges and try to liquidate these masters after they gain power.
The Tianxing Chamber of Commerce doesn't want to see the masters trained by itself turn against their new heirs just because they help out indiscriminately, and fight to the death.
Escorts and caravans need absolute trust to cooperate.
Once there is a gap in the heart, even if the new president doesn't care about this matter and participates in the action, the masters who stood on the opposite side of the new president before will definitely be under the doubts of others, and with their own fears, unable to bear it. The pressure to choose to leave.
Losing a general because of such a trivial matter is unacceptable to anyone.
But the family has no rule that young geniuses are not allowed to participate in the battle. Qin Yu only has innate cultivation, but he can easily kill alchemy masters.
As long as you are not besieged by the opponent's array, you are not trapped to death by the absolute number of people.
Then with Qin Yu in hand, as long as Tian Luoluo can sneak attack her elder brother successfully, it is almost a sure win.
The only thing she is more worried about now is whether the other party has received the letter or not, and whether she is on guard against her.
Her eyes rolled wildly, and after Tian Luoluo thought for a long time, a smile suddenly appeared in her eyes.
"Escort Qin, let's go in from the main entrance. I think the chances of winning are not high, so I may ask you to cooperate this time. I feel a little wronged."
"Ok?"
Hearing this, Qin Yu showed doubts, but what he saw when he looked up was the treacherous fox-like smile on Tian Luoluo's face.
At night, in the caravan stationed at a cheap inn, a male bodyguard who was in charge of the night watch tonight patrolled to an address with a big knife in his hand and followed the route. Follow all the wind and grass.
The other bodyguard who was following him next to him seemed a little foolish compared to him, not only was the knife carried behind his back, but he couldn't pull it out immediately.
He even holds food in his hand and eats it.
Hearing the continuous creaking sound of his companion, the male bodyguard next to him frowned and couldn't help but glared at him.
"Be careful! It's a critical moment, don't mess things up!"
Hearing what his companion said, the other bodyguard who kept chewing food couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
"What can we mess up with a group of ordinary bodyguards? We don't need us for important things, okay? But having said that, the third lady is really unexpected. She hides so deeply that even the second master is killed. He was destroyed."
"Don't talk about it! Beware that walls have ears!"
"Oh, okay, don't talk, don't talk, anyway, this matter has nothing to do with me. We just need to do our job well and wait for the third lady to gain power, get promoted and raise my salary."
Seeing his companion start to eat food heartlessly again, the man with a serious expression next to him couldn't help but sighed, turned his head and looked into the distance and muttered to himself.
"It's difficult for the third lady to gain power..."
puff!
The moment his voice fell, a muffled sound suddenly entered his ears.
The man's eyes widened suddenly, and he reached out and pressed the back of his neck directly.
His body was shaking, and he staggered back a few steps in a row.
With a bang, the bodyguard fell to the ground and passed out on the spot.
And behind him, his companion who was still fooling around and eating food, flicked his tongue and put the quiver back in his mouth.
Glancing at his companion, he couldn't help shaking his head.
"Yes, Miss San's odds of winning are too low, so we have to find another way out, right?"
Quickly throwing down the food in his hand, the man jumped over the wall with great agility.
He has almost stepped on the terrain of this courtyard, only here can lead directly to the stables.
The comatose companions may be discovered at any time, and even if they are not discovered, they will inevitably arouse the vigilance of another patrol team when they disappear when they meet with other teams.
This is also the reason why the man didn't even drag his fainting companion away to hide.
With that time, it is better to take a gamble and try to escape as soon as possible.
He rushed into the stable quickly, not waiting for the two bodyguards guarding here to react.
He rushed out of the darkness, he was already shooting with a crossbow in his left hand, and a hidden weapon was sprayed from his mouth.
The bodyguard who was hit by the poisoned dart grunted, struggled to draw half of his weapon, and passed out on the spot.
The other bodyguard reacted quickly enough, but no matter how fast it was, it was hard to be faster than the arrow.
With a bang, the raised steel knife was hit by a crossbow arrow, barely causing it to deviate from its trajectory.
It's just that the point of the arrow still pierced into his shoulder obliquely, and he couldn't help but let out a muffled groan due to the pain.
Before he staggered back and raised his weapon again, a cold light had struck.
Throwing away the light armor-piercing crossbow worth thousands of gold, the man who killed him drew his knife and swept across.
The bodyguard who was hindered by the injury only had time to scream out, and the steel knife in his hand was only halfway lifted, and the vital part of his neck was already hit.
Looking at the dead bodies lying straight on the ground, the man who killed the two of them in an instant rushed to the carriage to try one by one.
As a result, looking at the iron lock that locked the wooden wheel, the man who slashed several times with his knife and couldn't cut it off even though it generated a lot of sparks couldn't help but look livid.
Damn it!It is a special cold iron chain for the dart team!
Looking at the several gaps in the steel knife in his hand, the man couldn't help cursing angrily.
Then he hurriedly rushed to the horse in front, and instead used a knife to aim at the rope on the horse and cut it continuously.
It's just that as a caravan traveling the rivers and lakes, their other things may not be very good, but this guy who eats is definitely strong enough.
Even the hard-to-break cold iron is used to tie the carts, and the ropes that bind the horses are naturally extraordinary.
After all, their horses are not roadside goods, but extremely expensive thoroughbreds. They are top-notch horses specially bred with a certain bloodline of monsters.
The rope is not strong, what should you do if the other party breaks free and runs away, or what should you do if someone steals it in the middle of the night.
Therefore, the rope that locks the horse is not generally reliable.
After desperately cutting for a long time, the man who still couldn't break the rope, looked at the iron lock at the end of the rope, couldn't help cursing again, and even slapped the horse in front of him angrily.
The result is naturally obvious.
With a muffled bang, the improved war horse, who was also not very tempered, didn't get used to him at all, just raised his leg, and kicked the man three meters away on the spot.
Before the dizzy man who hit the carriage recovered from his confusion.
There was a sudden noisy sound in the distance, and then two sentry arrows soared into the sky, making an extremely piercing sound.
Seeing this scene, the man's face turned pale on the spot.
The fainting companion was discovered!He is exposed!
