Chapter Eleven Arrow Rain
There is a crowd of people in the wild at this moment.
The donkey and horse took off their bridles and ate the tender grass leisurely; the girls went to the lake to fetch water and play and laugh; the men finally had a leisure time, they took off their straw sandals and sat barefoot on the stone, smoking their cigarette pips while secretly looking at the woman.
This is the caravan where ancient charity wine and immortal stars are located.
Nowadays, the world is chaotic, and people often travel together to ensure the safety of the caravan. It is even more appropriate for the caravan to hire guards, so many people surrender and pay some fees so that they can walk together.
At this moment, when it was time for dinner, the caravan owner found this place for everyone to rest, and soon smoke rose.
Both ancient charity wine and immortal stars were not good at cooking, and they could still make a living at home, but they did not have the means of cooking in the wild, so they ate two or three rice balls to satisfy their hunger.
After dinner, people took out their personal belongings to exchange for sale, and the hawking sounds were heard one after another, which was quite lively.
The caravan guards also took the opportunity to swing their swords to show their unique skills. Several long swords flew up and down, and they were unexpectedly neat, which attracted the praise of men, women, young and old, and earned a few copper coins.
Gu Yijiu and Immortal Xingchen also squatted aside. Although they watched with relish for a long time, the two poor people obviously had no intention of giving money, and their words were written on them for free.
Suddenly, Immortal Xingchen stood up, Gu Yijiu turned her head curiously, and saw her asking a peasant woman: "How much is your glutinous rice cake?"
"Three copper plates in one piece."
The Immortal Star frowned: "It's so expensive."
The peasant woman said again: "If you have some needlework and embroidery, you can also exchange it."
The immortal star shook his head: "No."
The peasant woman rolled her eyes: "That's three copper plates."
The immortal stars suddenly froze in place.
Gu Yijiu laughed silently, but she didn't expect that the master would like the kind of snacks that children only eat, so she would laugh at her when she came back.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt a strong wind blowing in front of him. When he looked up, he saw a sharp blade slashing down on his head. Its momentum was fierce, which made the onlookers exclaim.
But Gu Yijiu still squatted and didn't move.
Because the sword couldn't kill him.
Sure enough, the sword blade turned in front of him, and with a beautiful sweep, cutting off a wing of a passing butterfly.
Everyone immediately shouted loudly.
The man who shook his sword was one of the caravan guards. He bowed to the surroundings proudly, and asked Gu Yijiu with a bit of arrogance: "Child, have you ever seen such exquisite sword skills?"
Gu Yijiu had never seen anyone killing butterflies, so he honestly replied: "I have never seen them."
"Since you haven't seen it before, shouldn't you express it?"
Only then did Gu Yijiu realize that the other party was here to seek rewards.
It’s a pity that he has no money and becomes a little embarrassed for a moment.
Fortunately, the caravan owner set off at the order, and then he slightly restored some dignity to Gu Yijiu.
"We sacrificed our lives to protect each other, but even a copper plate is so stingy, which is really disappointing." The guards were wearing two beards and were still nagging when they left.
The leader of the guard was a middle-aged man. Seeing this, he scolded: "Okay, don't say again. Whether to reward money or not is voluntary, don't force it. Moreover, it is a matter of guarding the people. We are warriors and should take responsibility!"
"Hmph, there are no warriors nowadays. We are just wasteful people who are not welcome."
The guard leader wanted to refute, but didn't know how to speak. In the end, he could only sigh and silently greet everyone to return to his post.
After watching all this, Gu Yijiu returned to the carriage. After a while, the immortal stars also came back.
“Where is the glutinous rice cake?”
The Immortal Stars are still struggling: "I haven't bought it, I always feel it's a bit expensive."
As the carriage flickered, the caravan set off again.
About half an hour later, the caravan entered a canyon.
After a while, he suddenly stopped and there were still shouts from the guards.
When Gu Yijiu got off the car, she realized that she was attacked.
The thieves were all on both sides of the cliff and did not attack, but just threw some stones and miscellaneous items. Some people were unfortunately caught and screamed in pain, making the scene a little miserable.
"Don't panic, the stones are shattered, just hide carefully!" The guard leader shouted: "These thieves are ragged and thin. They should be refugees nearby and are not considered bandits. Everyone should be patient for a while. When they see that they are scared to run away, they will leave on their own."
The guard leader is experienced and he is not bad at all. The thieves are hungry and cold and unable to fight. They are bluffing and want to throw some stones away to scare everyone away and win without fighting. Now seeing the response below is moderate and calm, they are relieved, and even the gravel is becoming more and more sparse.
The guard leader was delighted. He thought the thief would retreat, but he didn't expect that the people gathered together for a while and took out more than twenty rough short bows made of branches and grass ropes!
The guard leader suddenly burst into deceased.
If it was flat, he would not take this kind of rag in his eyes, but at this moment, he would hit the lower one with high and these short bows became death-demanding talismans.
He has no knowledge and does not know gravity, but he has enough experience to know how terrible it is for the shooter to occupy a high position.
His several friends were killed by sniping.
Fortunately, he had some way to deal with it many times between life and death. He knew that the other party was not many, and if he hid in the undercarriage at this moment, he could survive.
But he drew his sword and ordered loudly: "All guards obey orders, protecting the people first! Form a wall of humans and use swords to block arrows!"
Using a sword to block arrows is like a fantasy.
The leader knew that another friend would probably die today.
But he did it anyway.
It is only because of this that we can live up to our loyalty.
Dozens of arrows shot out with a buzzing sound. The shafts were slightly built dead branches, and the arrows were roughly polished stone pieces. However, they were so simple and tattered, but they accelerated under the action of gravity and became faster, like a violent rain, falling down.
The beard guard who had satirized Gu Yijiu before turned pale and shivered all over. The sword was so scared that he was so scared that he lost his hand.
The leader saw it, but he was unintentionally punished.
Although he was so scared that he lost his sword, he was still able to stand up before, so he was worthy of his ancestors.
If you are not good at swordsmanship, you can still practice; if your mind is not right, there is no cure to save you.
But the leader now only regrets that he is not good at swordsmanship and cannot turn the world around.
Arrows are like rain, but now it is pouring rain.
The leader's eyes were so anxious that he was furious that he was helpless.
Just when he thought that the man would die, one hand suddenly caught the sword that was about to fall to the ground.
The hand is the hand of ancient ritual wine.
This is the second time he has held a sword in this life.
Thanks to the teachings of Immortal Star, his sword-holding technique is particularly beautiful.
The guard leader was very surprised and recognized him as the child who didn't pay for the show. But when did he come and what did he want to do when he comes?
The answer was announced in the next second.
"The boundless fallen trees silence down."
A ball of wind exploded violently.
The leader seemed to have seen countless fallen leaves being rolled by the strong wind, colliding with the rain in the sky.
If you look closely, the fallen leaves are not fallen leaves, and rain is not rain.
Only the tip of the sword and the tip of the arrow are constantly colliding.
It's like rain hitting green leaves, making people fascinated.
Only then did he realize that there was really someone in this world who could block arrows with a sword.
The guards were stunned because the arrows were pushed away and none of them were missing.
The leader spitted in a dry and dull voice and asked, "How many swords have you made?"
Gu Yijiu thought for a while and said, "I will shoot as many arrows as they shoot."
The leader was speechless, and the arrows were splashing, and there were thirty or thirty. In other words, can Gu Yijiu at least thirty swords be stabbed in one breath?
The beard is even more ashamed. He is obviously carrying superb swordsmanship, but he is still showing off his swordsmanship. He is really arrogant.
Gu Yijiu handed over the sword to him.
He quickly took it with both hands and said respectfully: "Don't, thank you for help!"
Gu Yijiu smiled faintly: "You performed a move for me, and I will give you one more move, so there is no need to thank you."
But my move is only worth a few copper coins, but your move is worth several lives!
Thinking of this, I feel even more ashamed.
