At night, the bright moon hangs high in the dark night sky, with only a few stars twinkling, making the moon's light not so lonely in the darkness.
East County.
Outside the Sheriff's Mansion.
A group of soldiers patrolling the city were patrolling the streets. Suddenly, many of them noticed something strange. Dozens of people came towards them. It was dark and oppressive in the dark night.
This group of soldiers patrolling the city raised their weapons in warning.
"Who are you and what do you do!?" A soldier in the team shouted loudly.
The veteran at the head of the team was able to see something clearly through the faint light of the lamps lit in the team. His expression changed, and he quickly scolded the soldiers in the team: "Put it away quickly, it's the Lord of the Shadow Guard."
them!"
He is very senior, and although he is not familiar with the Shadow Guard and the Snare, he is aware of their existence and what they mean.
Little people have to have their own way of survival.
Who are the Shadow Secret Guards? They are the personal guards of the King of Qin. They are the eyes and ears of the King of Qin. Their thoughts, their sights and their hearings can reach heaven. A casual word from these big men is enough for the whole county.
Too bad, how can little people like them afford to offend?
These dozens of people were naturally Gai Nie, Zhang Han and others who rushed to Dongjun overnight. They raided Dongjun and hid all the people along the way. Their actions were so strict that even a net could not detect their specific location.
Someone was smuggling refined salt in Dongjun on a large scale and for a long time. In any case, the governor of Dongjun could not escape the blame.
If the new salt business in Dongjun has formed a big network, then he must be included in this network, and as an official of the Qin State, he is the best breakthrough point for Gai Nie and Zhang Han to break through this hidden network.
It is also the most obvious flaw of the opponent.
"Get ready." Zhang Han ordered coldly to the shadow guard beside him, with a murderous look on his face.
This trip is for the foundation of Great Qin. The power of the new salt is enough to change the situation in the world. Even just a little bit is enough for them, the guardians in the darkness, to fight for it.
A shadow secret guard came to the anxious soldiers patrolling the city and said: "You are guarding here, don't act rashly!"
In front of the governor's house, Gai, Nie and Zhanghan stood side by side.
"Sir, this is a great idea. As long as we capture this county guard, many unsolved mysteries may be solved." Zhang Han turned on his phone and looked at Gai Nie and praised him.
Gai Nie on the side had no reaction to Zhang Han's praise. Even without him, Zhang Han could have thought of this.
"The tortoise and jade were destroyed in the coffin, and the tiger and the tiger came out of the coffin. How can the keeper of the code avoid his fault? It is not difficult to think of this verse.
I just hope we don't come too late." Gai Nie said, his face was calm, no, it should be said to be indifferent, and he opened his mouth to express the worries in his heart.
"What do you mean, Mr. Gai?" Zhang Han asked quickly. He did not dare to treat the words of the chief swordsman teacher beside King Qin as ordinary chatter.
This is a truly unfathomable master, every move, every word and every deed is mysterious.
"I just hope that the current Sheriff is still a living person, not a corpse." Gai Nie said indifferently, then tiptoed, and "flyed" like a swallow to the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion.
Zhang Han winked at his men and then followed Gai Nie's footsteps.
A group of Shadow Guards also followed suit. Those who can be selected into the Shadow Guards are not too weak in strength. It is easy for them to fly over the walls.
Only four secret guards walked to different directions and looked at the group of soldiers in front of them.
After Zhang Han and Gai Nie took down the county guard's bodyguard, they found his body lying on the table, still warm, in the county guard's study.
"Damn it!" Zhang Han stood next to the bookshelf and punched the bookshelf fiercely.
Gai Nie looked calm, obviously he had anticipated this incident.
The guards of the county guard outside the door were frightened and had no idea what was happening.
"It seems that our actions along the way were all in vain, and our news may have been leaked in Xianyang." Zhang Han's face began to become ugly and solemn.
They hid their tracks all the way so that no one would discover them, and as soon as they arrived, they found that the governor of East County had been killed at home. This was definitely not a coincidence.
In the haze, Zhang Han felt that there was a big net surrounding them. In the darkness, someone was staring at them, and someone was mocking them for not overestimating their capabilities...
"What happened in Dongjun is very strange. There must be someone with powerful eyes and hands planning everything behind the scenes." Gai Nie said.
As soon as they arrived in Dongjun, the governor of Dongjun died in the mansion. Who dares to say that there is nothing strange in this?
Zhang Han led several followers out of the study, leaving only Gai Nie in the room to inspect the body of the county governor.
At the same time, Zhang Han ordered the secret guards around him to take control of the entire county guard's mansion, send people back to Xianyang to report the news to Ying Zheng, and at the same time send people to mobilize troops and generals, gather manpower and mobilize some of the Dongjun garrison.
Inside the house, Genie looked at the corpse of the county governor and fell into deep thought.
He examined the body of the East County Sheriff.
The county guard had lost his breath. Although he was not cold yet, he was indeed dead. However, he did not find any external injuries or signs of poisoning.
Is Gai Nie a person with sharp eyes? In the original work, when faced with Zhang Han who was seriously injured after being attacked by Jing Ju and Zhi Ri, he could tell at a glance that there was another snare through the wounds on Zhang Han's body.
Top-notch killers joined the siege against Zhang Han.
But even with his eyesight, he couldn't find anything wrong with the corpse in front of him, as if the corpse died of illness due to worry.
After a while, Zhang Han, who was in charge of the interrogation, came back. After interrogating several guards, Zhang Han obtained information that surprised even him. The guards did not notice any abnormality.
Zhang Han also suspected that these guards were lying, but all his past interrogation experiences told him that what these guards said was absolutely true and not a single lie.
But both Zhang Han and Gai Nie knew that things would never be that simple.
…
Half an hour ago.
On the roof of a certain house in front of the East County Sheriff's Mansion, a figure dressed in black, with a mask on his face and a bamboo hat on his head stood on the roof.
The moonlight fell, reflecting her figure.
The person who came was none other than Tian Yan.
With the activation of "He Light and Dust", Tian Yan's figure gradually "disappeared" out of thin air under the night sky.
Relying on being in harmony with the light and observing people's emotions, Tian Yan walked into the heavily guarded Dongjun County Sheriff's Mansion in such a swagger.
She came to kill people. Tian Yan used Luo Wang's relationship to make the governor of Dongjun make a compromise. All subsequent actions and Luo Wang's actions eliminated the relationship. As long as the governor was eliminated, it would be equivalent to cutting off other
