Chapter 152 The Battle of Purple Mountain (4)(1/2)
Lin Wan suddenly took a shield and rushed forward against the right wall.
Luo Xiaoyao was surprised and saw Lin Wanzhen retreating again. An arrow came from the left side of the Jiadaokou with a sharp sound, passing through the crack between the iron fence like lightning. With a "sudden" sound, it shot into the wall a foot in front of Lin Wanzhen. There was only the arrow feather at the tail end.
Lin Wanzhen retreated behind the Shenhu Camp Guard, looked at Luo Xiaoyao with a surprised expression, and smiled, "On the left, I saw the old man holding the Dan Realm, Leijiao and the other two must be on the right, and the senior brother is reliable on the right and the same line as the enemy guards... When they are about to shoot the second arrow, the senior sister shoots the old man, and I will deal with the two of them."
She had seen Lei Jiao when she assassinated the Liao envoy in Jiangning, but she also recognized it.
Luo Xiaoyao knew that she was powerful, and immediately replaced the Shenhu Yingwei standing on the right side when he heard this, and stood side by side with three other people with shields.
But Lin Wanzhen behind her said again: "Move forward two feet, and protect the lunge..."
Luo Xiaoyao and the three guards of the camp moved forward quickly when they heard the sound. When they were three feet away from the iron fence, they held their shields and stopped their bodies.
At this moment, the sight suddenly opened. The moment Luo Xiaoyao saw the figure of the old man in gray on the left side of the Jiadaokou, the sound of breaking through the air sounded, and three arrows shot towards everyone like lightning. One arrow hit Luo Xiaoyao, and two other flying arrows came from the right side of the Jiadaokou and hit the guards on the left.
Just as three flying arrows hit the shields in Luo Xiaoyao and others, Xiao Muyun and Lin Wanzhen fired their bows at the same time, and two flying arrows shot out from the iron fence, one left and one right.
The old man in gray was about to hit the arrow again, but he saw a flying arrow swirling and reached five feet in front of him. The old man in gray was shocked. He was just trying to win the Dan Xiaocheng, and his spiritual sense was extraordinary. But he knew that the arrow was avoiding it. In a flash, he raised the bowstring in his hand to greet him.
With a "click", the flying arrow hit the bow body, which actually cut off the bow string. The old man's right arm shook and led his back to retreat. At the same time, he slapped out his left palm and knocked down the flying arrow that still had the remaining momentum of the broken bow string.
When the old man in gray stopped, he heard the sharp sound of breaking through the air again. He was shocked and flashed to the right, and a flying arrow flashed one foot on the left, but he was afraid that a third arrow would be shot. The old man in gray led his back two feet away, but he was avoiding the sight of everyone in the corridor.
But at this moment, Lei Jiao on the right side of the jacking entrance exclaimed. The man in armor, who was wearing an arrow on his right shoulder, was caught in an arrow. He thought that the arrow was powerful, and the flying arrow passed through the man's right shoulder, which still shocked him to retreat. Lei Jiao was shocked and quickly stepped forward. While holding the man, he took his waist and took a few steps back together, and turned to the camp that was more than twenty feet away.
It turned out that when Lei Jiao and the other two shot the first arrow, Lin Wanzhen also drew the bow and fired the arrow, and two arrows in front and back shot Lei Jiao. They did not have a shield to protect themselves, so they led their bodies to dodge.
After Xiao Muyun forced the old man in gray to open, he also drew an arrow to shoot Lei Jiao and the others. At that time, Xiao Muyun could only see the right figure of the armored man. This arrow would probably make the armored man penetrate the heart with one arrow.
Now no one was shooting arrows outside, so Luo Xiaoyao raised the roar of the water dragon in his hand and slashed towards the iron fence. With the sound of "bang", dozens of iron rods flew and fell, and the iron fence was broken.
Luo Xiaoyao and others were afraid that the Tang soldiers on the wall would ignite arrows to shoot. When they came out, they all raised their shields to protect their heads. Even five feet away from the Jiadaokou, the crowd stopped. More than twenty Shenhu Camp guards instantly formed a group and protected Luo Xiaoyao and the other two in the middle.
This Tang Bing Camp, surrounded by two walls, is located in a valley between two peaks in the west of Zijin Mountain. The terrain is only two or three feet higher than the flat ground outside Shouzhou City. The wall is built on the hillside. The Tang soldiers in the camp have to build walls, and they also need to go up the stone stairs built against the wall.
At this time, some Tang soldiers who were climbing the stone stairs to resist the attack of the Great Zhou soldiers saw Luo Xiaoyao and his group invaded from the Jiadaokou and turned down the stone stairs. In an instant, more than a hundred soldiers gathered and raised their swords to fight at the place where Luo Xiaoyao and others stood.
As the sound of fighting and arrows spread, Luo Xiaoyao looked around, but saw the Tang soldiers leading their bows to shoot out on the wall, but there was no situation where the Zhou soldiers attacked the wall. It was not believed that the Tang soldiers took advantage of the hillside to make it difficult for the Zhou soldiers to climb up to build the wall. He thought that only by burning the granary to cause the Tang soldiers to be in chaos, the Tang soldiers had the opportunity to break through the wall.
I saw the old man in gray standing at the entrance of the camp more than twenty feet away, accompanied by more than a dozen soldiers and guards beside him. Reggio was no longer visible, but he was probably taking the man who was caught in the arrow to the camp to heal his wounds.
Thinking of Xiao Muyun and Lin Wanzhen, even if a person in the camp who had the small realm of holding the pills appeared, he could deal with it. Luo Xiaoyao thought and said, "The most important thing is to burn the granary... I think most of the Tang soldiers refused to guard the walls, and there should be no people in the camp. The two junior sisters will do the matter of setting fire to the camp. The old men at the gate of the village will deal with it. The Tang soldiers in front of me will be handed over to the guards..."
There were more than ten people in the Shenhu Camp and Guard. They were originally ordered to protect Luo Xiaoyao and the other two, but seeing that the situation was impossible, after hearing this, he responded in unison: "As for the order...", which was scattered and drove towards the rushing Tang soldiers.
But knowing that the old man in gray only had the ability to hold the pills and even if he had a group of guards, he was not Luo Xiaoyao's skills. Xiao Muyun and Lin Wanzhen nodded when they heard this, looked at each other, and at the same time he jumped towards the camp on the right.
The old man in gray clothes at the entrance of the camp saw Luo Xiaoyao coming quickly, Xiao and Lin rushed into the camp tent on the left and said to the person beside him: "You go and stop the two women and protect the general..." He drew his sword and came out to meet Luo Xiaoyao.
Xiao and Lin flew across the village and landed on the camp tent at the same time. However, as Luo Xiaoyao expected, there was almost no one in the camp. Only when four soldiers were stationed outside the main tent, Lin Wanzhen said: "The person who was shot and injured by his senior sister just now, but I think it should be the main general here. Na Leijiao took him away. He should go to the main tent to treat the arrow injury. We will go to the main tent to take him down first, or we can change the situation of the battle..."
"What the junior sister said is right, let's go..."
After passing by the five camps and landing on the ground, more than ten soldiers were running towards the gate of the village. Lin Wanzhen paused and glanced at the main tent not far away, "Senior sister, go and catch the main general first, I will deal with these people."
Xiao Muyun saw that the visitor was at most a cultivation level in the True Realm, and he was relieved that Lin Wanzhen would go to deal with it alone. Hearing this, he ran towards the main account.
The four soldiers guards guarding outside the main tent were on guard. When they saw Xiao Muyun running towards him, they all stabbed him with their guns. Xiao Muyun did not retreat but advanced. He waved his right hand and as the white light of the "Shock Armor" rose, the sword energy of the "Bixu Wuyun" tricks had already passed through the arms of the four soldiers.
These soldiers and guards are just ordinary skills, and the aura of the people who hold the Dan Xiaocheng can not stop it. Half of the spear pierced, they all felt a chill of their right arm, and then a huge pain in their hearts. Suddenly, the four of them fell off their shoulders at the same time, and the blood flower flew to the test.
Amid the soldiers' howls, Xiao Muyun's thoughts moved, and he swung his "shock armor" and cut across the main tent. When the sword energy just cut through the main tent, he heard a loud shout, and a figure broke through the tent and rushed towards him with an eight-edged hammer.
Xiao Muyun took a step back and used a move of "Minghe Ningshuang". When the tip of the "Jingjia" sword was pressed against the eight-edged hammer, the energy was erected, causing the hammer's person to be recoiled and took two steps back.
"It's you..."
The person who used the hammer was Lei Jiao. Just now, Xiao Muyun was covered with shields in the dark passage, so he could not see clearly. But thinking that Xiao Muyun, who was just returning to the realm four years ago, forced himself back with this next move. Lei Jiao looked horrified.
Xiao Muyun did not answer, and his energy turned around and stabbed Lei Jiao's face with a sword. Lei Jiao's right hammer suddenly hit the "Shock Armor". The left hammer swung Xiao Muyun's waist, but when the eight-ring hammer was about to touch the "Shock Armor" sword body, Xiao Muyun suddenly moved his right hand, led the sword down with his backhand, and pointed the sword straight at the tip of Lei Jiao's left wrist.
Lei Jiao's right hammer hit the air, but he felt a sharp sword aura hitting his left hand. He was shocked, and he pulled his left hammer, and he kicked his right foot and took two steps back.
Lei Jiao was not yet standing still, but saw the sword light coming from the right side like a stream of flowers. The left hammer rushed to fight. As the sound of gold and stone hitting, Lei Jiao felt a shock in his left arm, and was shocked. He took back the right hammer he was about to swing, and took two steps back.
Xiao Muyun's qi condensed, and the slightly trembling "Shock Armor" suddenly aroused the sword intent. As Xiao Muyun's right hand moved, "Shock Armor" illusioned countless stars and spots attacked Leijiao like waves.
Lei Jiao has been with Shen Liancheng all year round and has a good understanding of swordsmanship. Although the sword intent that came is everywhere, the sword energy dispersed. But guessing that this move is a false move, it is to advance instead of retreating, and swing the two hammers left and right.
Xiao Muyun's three moves just now were Yueshuang Sword Technique, which made the "dripping water and waves" of Taisu Eleven Swords. As Lei Jiao guessed, the sword energy distributed by "dripping water and waves" is vertical but not condensed, but it is by no means a false move. Moreover, this move can only be considered a half move. The real power is that the subsequent move "converges energy into pearls".
When Lei Jiao left hammer hit the "Shock Armor", Xiao Muyun shook his right wrist and a ball of halo turned around. The "Shock Armor" sword body suddenly turned above the eight-edged hammer. As Xiao Muyun repelled, Lei Jiao felt a huge force pressing down the eight-edged hammer in his left hand. He saw the sword body passing through the hammer face, hitting his chest like lightning. He was shocked and led his body to retreat. He retreated with his left hammer and smashed his right hammer at the same time.
Unexpectedly, when the right hammer touched the sword body, the "Shock Armor" turned to the top of the right hammer like a spirit snake. The tip of the sword was rubbed against the eight-edged hammer and hit the door. In a flash, a long spear attacked directly from the main tent, hitting Xiao Muyun's left waist who happened to attack the entrance of the camp.
Xiao Muyun had no choice but to pause his feet, lean forward, and his lower abdomen were retracted. The spear passed through the bright light armor and flew away. But at this time, Lei Jiao took the opportunity to break the tent with a hammer and break into the tent quickly.
Xiao Yanbei turned around and raised his eyes to look at the door of the main tent. He saw a man standing next to the short desk not far behind Lei Jiao, but was a man with a thirty-year-old shot through his left shoulder by an arrow.
As Lin Wanzhen expected, this thirty-year-old man was the leader of the camp. When Lei Jiao helped him take out the arrow passing by and bandage his wound, Xiao Muyun arrived.
He had a serious shoulder injury, but in order not to dare to go out to fight Xiao Muyun, he rushed out through the entrance of the tent that was broken when Lei Jiao rushed out. However, seeing Lei Jiao retreating suddenly, he knew something was wrong, so he picked up the spear beside him. When Xiao Muyun showed his figure at the door of the tent, he threw it out with all his might, but in a flash, he saved Lei Jiao.
...
Luo Xiaoyao thought that Gu Hengshan and the other three were shot and killed by the old man in gray. In the midst of the sprint, the murderous intention had already arisen. But when he saw the old man in gray raising a knife from the entrance of the camp, he paused and a move of "Qiu Shui Sorrow" came out, and suddenly the coldness rose around him.
The old man in gray saw the sword light rising ten feet away, and the bitter sword energy was already coming to his face. He was shocked, his feet were sure, and he immediately took a step back and turned attack into defense.
But when the sword tip was three feet tall, he waved the knife and slashed it out. He let out a "dou" sound, but his arm was shocked and his mouth hurt. He hurriedly stepped back five steps and opened a distance of one meter before he stood still.
It was just now that the old man in gray had not seen Luo Xiaoyao's face clearly. Although he knew that the person inside should be able to hold the pill, he was not expected to be so young. Looking at Luo Xiaoyao, the old man in gray took a breath, suppressed his heart and was shocked. He turned his energy and focused on his mind.
Luo Xiaoyao saw that he was over 60 years old and his cultivation was about to achieve a small success in the Baodan. He knew that his aura was pure and thick, and his power suddenly had no power. With a thought, the Taisu Eleven Sword "Silent Scent" was used to hit the old man in gray.
The first eight styles of Taisu Eleven Sword are actually four moves, each of which is soft and hard, and Luo Xiaoyao saw that the old man in gray wanted to take action, but he might take a lot of time to control him, so he tempted him to take action, taking advantage of his potential and waiting for an opportunity to attack.
The old man in gray saw a ball of sword light flashing like a flower, and he did not dare to look down on him. On one side of his body, he slashed at the sword body of the Dragon Roar. Luo Xiaoyao suddenly took a step back and changed his move to "swing the snow and falling jade" and tangently towards the old man's arm.
The old man in gray slashed the sky with a knife, and saw the hissing sword energy attacking again. He quickly took a step back and put the knife back to block it. When the back of the knife touched the sword body, he felt a huge force pressing down. The sword stroked the back of the knife and stabbed it into his lower abdomen. In shock, he led his body to retreat and opened.
Luo Xiaoyao then used a "wire weaving net". The old man in gray saw the sword lights in front of him crisscrossing, and the sword energy was everywhere, like a shadow, but he wanted to wrap the person in it. He wanted to retreat and could not stop, but he had to slash out with one knife, but he did not know that it would be another slash.
The old man in gray felt bad, and saw a flash of sword light again. There was no phantom under the sword, but it was driven straight into his chest.
Seeing that he was stabbed, in a flash, the old man in gray was crossing his chest. When the sword tip stabbed the blade, his left palm pressed towards the blade and pushed forward, but he felt that the blade was hit by a huge hammer, and instead shook the blade toward the chest.
The old man in gray was hurriedly pushing his left foot back and pushing his hands with both hands. But he suddenly burst out with a huge force from the tip of the sword, but it was unstoppable. The blade was knocked back to his chest, and he couldn't help but retreat and hit the village railing ten feet behind him, stopping his body. The old man in gray felt his heart and blood tumbling, and his throat was hot, and a mouthful of blood was sprayed out.
As Luo Xiaoyao thought, the old man in gray had insufficient qi. Once he attacked, the power of the qi revived in an instant was reduced. When the old man in gray had a knife, Luo Xiaoyao followed up with a "needle-threading" attack. When he blocked the sword across the cross, he urged the qi to slash him with force, which shocked him.
Looking at Luo Xiaoyao who was moving forward, the old man in gray thought that he had no hope of escaping, so he suddenly shouted, held the knife in both hands and slashed out horizontally, and murderous aura instantly gathered the tip of the knife and swept towards Luo Xiaoyao.
Luo Xiaoyao paused, and used a move of "Qin Se Wuhe". With a crisp sound, a white light rose into the air. The old man in gray covered his bloody abdomen with his right hand, shaking and retracing for three steps, stretching his left hand back, leaning back towards the village railing, and slowly slid down.
Luo Xiaoyao looked at the big knife that was buzzing from the air and inserted into the ground, saying, "Seven days ago, when the Great Zhou soldiers attacked this camp, three worshippers were shot and killed... But what did you do?"
The old man in gray stared at Luo Xiaoyao for a moment, took a breath, "Give me a sword..." Then he closed his eyes.
His abdomen was cut by sword energy, and he was almost cut in his waist. He could no longer survive, but he asked Luo Xiaoyao to kill him with one sword.
Luo Xiaoyao guessed that he would not say anything again, shook his head, jumped up to the camp tent, and looked up. But when he saw a long spear attacking in front of the main tent, flying past Xiao Muyun, his heart tightened, and he lit up his feet, and then he went to Xiao Muyun's side, looked around, looked at Lei Jiao with shocked face in the tent, and said to Xiao Muyun, "Where is Junior Sister Wanzhen?"
Xiao Muyun turned around and Luo Xiaoyao arrived, but when he heard him ask Lin Wanzhen, he was shocked and turned around and looked around, "I'll go find her..." Before he finished speaking, he was already moving towards the back camp.
"You... Mr. Chu is your master?"
When Luo Xiaoyao disguised himself as a member of Qingfeng Post, Lei Jiao had never seen his true face, but he had seen him when he was fighting in Congyi Mansion in Jingnan. When Chu Nanfeng fought with Li Guanshu, Gu Yanchun told Lei Jiao that Luo Xiaoyao was Chu Nanfeng's disciple.
Luo Xiaoyao looked at the man with the arrow wound on his right shoulder and asked, "Who is he?"
Lei Jiao hesitated, the man replied: "Zhu Guang'an, the commander of the left-wing army of the Tang Dynasty Shenwu, and the vanguard of the northwest of the army, the vanguard of the capital Yuhou..."
"I'll order you to surrender...I'll spare you."
Zhu Guangan laughed, "Just, do you think this vanguard camp will be destroyed if you kill this general?"
Luo Xiaoyao looked at Lei Jiao, "Seven days ago, when the Great Zhou soldiers attacked this camp, three worshippers were shot and killed by Tang soldiers... Do you know who did it?"
Lei Jiao hesitated for a moment and said, "Three days ago, Lei was ordered to find out the matter... and came to this Pioneer Camp."
Luo Xiaoyao looked stunned, "How do you say this?"
"What about Mr. Qin?"
Luo Xiaoyao was stunned and understood that Mr. Qin, whom Lei Jiao said, was the old man in gray, "he should not live for half an hour..."
Lei Jiao was stunned when he heard this and sighed, "Seven days ago, Mr. Qin accompanied General Zhu to watch the battle on the wall. However, he saw three masters in Zhou soldiers who were very skilled. He wanted to draw arrows and shoot, but he didn't expect that he saw the three masters fall one after another..."
"Mr. Qin knew that he wanted to shoot these three masters in a flash, and he had to be a person with great success in his cultivation. But he thought there were no such masters in this camp. He was very suspicious. After the truce, he asked the guards where the incident happened... but no one knew who shot and killed the three people."
"Mr. Qin was shocked and told Mr. Shen about this matter..."
"Is it Shen Liancheng... Mr. Shen? Why is that?"
"Yes. Mr. Shen is the chief entrusted by the Shenwu Army. Regarding the people in the military... If the origin of the people who joined the entrusted, Mr. Shen has the right to inquire about the origin of the people who joined the entrusted service."
"Mr. Chen was very surprised when he learned about it. He realized that this was strange, so he asked Lei and Brother Gu to come and investigate..."
"Brother Gu... Is Gu Yanchun? Where are others?"
"Brother Gu met a friend who visited the Huaihe warship yesterday."
Luo Xiaoyao knew that the Southern Tang navy was blocked in Xia Cai and could not support Shouzhou from the water, so he took the Zijin Mountain, but his warships were still docked on the Huai River where they were blocked. Hearing this, he understood Gu Yanchun's place.
To be continued...
