Just as the knife shattered, the fragments of the knife shot out in all directions, and the force was so great that the dense arrow momentum of the shock was also slightly slowed down.

Although he was still scratched by the arrow in the end, this gap bought Zhou Bo precious time, and he took advantage of this brief moment to throw away the handle of the knife in his hand, pull out the two sabers at his waist, and hold them in his hands to continue to move forward......

It's just a matter of turning around. But the shock it brought to others is something that can never be forgotten.

originally thought that after Zhou Bo's knife was broken, he would definitely die, but seeing his miraculous performance, Yu Liang and the others were stunned.

Zhou Bo pressed the formation with two knives, and suddenly felt that the pressure had been reduced a lot, and he was slightly relieved in his heart.

The further you go, the more dense the rain of arrows becomes, and the power is gradually increasing. Zhou Bo's physical exertion is getting more and more ...... now

Great, this is the first time he has consumed so much, and he has never worried about physical problems, and his heart began to become nervous.

In his anxiety, Zhou Bo had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he woke up and said: "Moves! Yes, some moves are to defeat the strong with the weak, and I believe that they will definitely save physical strength." ”

Just now, he has been using a few basic movements used to chop wood, but his reaction and swinging the knife are too fast to resist the attack of the rain of arrows, but this kind of hard fight is too physically demanding, and ordinary people can't support half a moment at all.

Speaking of moves, Zhou Bo felt a headache, although he thought of a good way, but when he came back to his senses, he suddenly realized that he didn't know any knife skills at all, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

With a short distance of dozens of zhang, Zhou Bo felt like he couldn't see the end. Of the more than 7,000 death row prisoners, nearly 1,000 fell in a short period of time, among which the most casualties were the Tsing Yi prisoners, and some of the black-clothed prisoners who rushed to the front had already reached the city wall and were climbing up with wooden ladders......

"If you go on like this, you must die!" Zhou Bo supported him hard, and now he clearly felt that his physical strength was losing rapidly, and it would be difficult to survive like this. And I don't know why, from just now, he felt that the pressure around him seemed to be much greater.

"Damn, are all the arrows shooting at Lao Tzu!?" Zhou Bo felt more and more depressed, and even he, who never sweared, couldn't help but curse in his heart, but the movements in his hands did not decrease at all......

This time Zhou Bo was really right, because his performance had directly affected the morale of the soldiers, and the military advisors on the city wall saw this and felt a deep threat in their hearts, so they immediately ordered to send more archers and shoot arrows as far as possible where he was.

I don't know if after scolding, the depression in his heart was vented, Zhou Bo felt that his heart was no longer so breathless, so his heart returned to his former calmness.

......

After a while, Zhou Bo made a decision: "I have always used the "Simple Knife Technique" one move at a time, although the action is very skillful and very fast, but the coherence is not strong, if I combine the unloading method in "Grappling Eighteen Dozen", I should be able to save a lot of effort." ”

In normal times, of course, there would be no problem with such an idea, but now on the battlefield, before the battle, this kind of thinking is inevitably too crazy.

The famous sword techniques in the martial arts are all Mahayana after being tempered and absorbing the experience of countless generations. If you want to temporarily create a set of superior knife techniques, it is absolutely impossible, even if you are the best in the world and the best in the world.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Zhou Bo created such a set of knife techniques, it always needs actual combat to be perfect. But under the rain of arrows, the slightest mistake will pierce the heart and die, and there is no chance to regret it. Creating sword techniques in such an environment requires more than just courage and wisdom.

Zhou Bo didn't know about this situation, but now his physical exertion is getting bigger and bigger, and if he doesn't think of any other way, it will only be a dead end.

"Simple Knife Technique" is indeed simple, there are only five actions "chopping, splitting, turning, racking, and playing", as long as people who have seen it do not know how to use it, but Zhou Bo has practiced "Simple Knife Technique" since he was a child, and he ......

Several movements have reached the realm of pure fire, but the previous objects were dead objects such as trees, and now they are facing a continuous rain of arrows, but this time the objects are deadly.

But the current situation does not allow Zhou Bo to think more, immediately change the knife momentum, "chop, split, turn, frame, bounce" each action continues to use, after one move, followed by the next action, and then try to wave the knife shadow into a circle according to the method of unloading......

"Huh!" An arrow hit Zhou Bo's shoulder, after all, the first time he tried, his movements seemed much stiffer, and he missed many arrows as soon as he tried the move, but fortunately, he was only shot with an arrow, and it was not critical, this injury was nothing to him. So he continued to move his body, cooperating with the five actions of "chopping, splitting, turning, racking, and playing".

Perhaps feeling the threat of death, the potential of Zhou Bo's whole body suddenly burst out, his movements were a few points faster, and his eyes were ethereal and calm, at this moment he once again entered the long-lost 'Realm of Ethereal Light'. There is no joy or sorrow, no gain or loss, and no thoughts, all of which are empty......

"Huh!" An arrow flew, and another arrow came from his arm, but Zhou Bo didn't have any expression on his face, and he continued to wave the two sabers, constantly drawing circles......

"Whew!" another arrow in his leg......

"Whew!" another arrow in the back......

Zhou Bo had already been hit by more than ten arrows in his body, and if it was someone else, he would have already died, but because he practiced the superior foreign kung fu such as "Dragon Pole Nine Changes", and the 'body training' had also been Hinayana in the Hinayana era, it was just a skin injury to him, and even blood did not flow out.

As his movements became more and more coherent, the knife in his hand drew countless large and small circles to surround him in the middle. Although the sword technique is not as fast as before, it can basically block the attack of the arrow rain, and the most important thing is that his physical strength is not consumed as much as just now, this is the capital of Zhou Bo's life, and he finally succeeded!

At the moment when Zhou Bo blocked the rain of arrows with his knife again, the generals of both sides were shocked again, and their first reaction was "impossible".

Just now, when Yu Liang and the others saw Zhou Bo being hit by several arrows, they thought that he was about to fall, and they were sighing in their hearts, a fierce general was going to die under the random arrows, and the young general and others on the city wall were secretly relieved. But what they didn't expect was that Zhou Bo not only did not fall down with several arrows in his body, but also blocked the attack of the arrow rain. Such a strange result made them feel a little unbearable, and they all looked ahead with their mouths open.

......

Because Zhou Bo attracted a large number of archers, the pressure on the rest of the death row prisoners was suddenly reduced a lot, so they accelerated the pace of advancement, and after a while, most of the death row prisoners arrived under the city wall and began to attack......

The young general on the city wall was a little at a loss, and pulled the military advisor on the side and said, "Military division, the enemy is attacking now, what do you think should be done?"

The military advisor frowned, and said with contempt in his heart: "This kid is really a dou who can't be helped, and he panics like this when he encounters something, it seems that the sand king still spoils him too much." Although he was disdainful in his heart, he still said respectfully on the surface: "Don't worry, the young general, even if they call, we can hold it." ”

As the military advisor said, the prisoners who climbed the city wall were faced with the attack of the sword and axeman, and the weapons in their hands broke in two blows, and they had no power to fight back.

......

"Oh no! Oh no!" A burst of urgent shouts suddenly came, and a pawn ran over and said: "Tell the major general, military division, the big thing is not good, the grain depot in Shacheng is on fire." ”

"What!" the major general and the military advisor were shocked when they heard the report from the pawn.

The major general said angrily: "Didn't I tell people to guard the grain depot well?

The pawn hurriedly explained: "There is a group of people in black who set themselves on fire, and then rushed to the grain depot desperately, and the brothers couldn't stop it, so ......"

"Okay, now is not the time to talk about these problems!" the military advisor interrupted the report and said to the pawn: "You now lead people to fight the fire with all their might, reinforcements will arrive soon, and then send the order down, transfer manpower, and strengthen the rear defense." After speaking, he took out a sign from his bosom and handed it over.

"Yes, Strategist!" the pawn took the order and quickly left.

The major general said: "There is a fire in the rear, even if my father's reinforcements arrive, the losses this time are still very heavy." Strategist, look at what to do now, those death row prisoners are much tougher than you imagined. ”

The military advisor frowned, and snorted angrily: "Then Mo Zheng is really too deceitful, come here!"

"Yes, Strategist!" a pawn hurriedly ran over.

"Pour fire oil on me, I'll see how they come up!" the military advisor ordered fiercely.

"Yes!"

......

A group of black-clothed prisoners were climbing up the city wall, seeing that they were about to arrive, they were a little excited in their hearts, shouting and waving their sabers, but suddenly there was a "whoosh!" and a puddle of ** things fell above, which made everyone stunned, but they seemed to have lost their minds, and continued to climb desperately.

"Set fire!" ordered countless fires to fall from the city walls. For a time, the entire city seemed to be burning in a fire.

Beneath the walls was a sea of fire, now called 'Hell in Fire'......

It couldn't be more apt. Countless wails were mixed with desperate cries, and some prisoners even climbed to the city wall in flames, but they were burned alive before they could climb halfway, and this scene made the hearts of others tremble.

......

In the distance, Yu Liang looked at everything under the city wall, and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that Shen Tiance is really on fire." Haha......"

After a while, Yu Liang ordered: "Mingjin retreats!"

"Boom... Boom... As soon as the sound of gold sounded, all the death row prisoners were released, and they quickly retreated, and thousands of embarrassed death row prisoners quickly evacuated after hearing the sound, and they didn't know how much faster than when they attacked the city......

Under the rain of arrows, Zhou Bo's heart was quiet, at this time he forgot about the war, forgot the enemy, forgot everything, and only had a knife in his eyes. The skillfulness of his movements made his moves more and more mellow, and the rain of arrows in the sky could not penetrate his sword shadow at all.

Zhou Bo knew that he had finally succeeded, and in addition to being excited, he was about to continue to try the move, but as soon as the thought came to him, a sound of Ming Jin woke him up.

Looking at the sea of fire under the city wall in front of him, Zhou Bo's heart was shocked, it was the first time he had seen such a bloody and cruel scene, and countless desperate cries were like in his ears, making him feel like he wanted to vomit. "Is this war, is life so mean?" but no one would answer him.

Zhou Bo was raining arrows here, and he could only resist and retreat, but it was still much easier than when he was advancing......

The "Death Battalion" was stationed fifty miles outside Shacheng Pass, where there was no barrier at all, and it could only be attacked by wind and sand, but it was much more comfortable than on the battlefield.

Late at night, after Zhou Bo returned to the camp, he began to carefully treat his wounds. After pulling out more than ten arrows on his body, he felt a pain in his flesh, and the wound healed quickly, leaving only a shocking scar.

was about to cultivate, when suddenly there was a burst of footsteps, Zhou Bo's eyes opened slightly, and he didn't need to look to know that it must have been Dongyu who had found it. So he put down his cultivation and waited for him to come in.

Sure enough, Dong Yu came in with a dusty face and a dirty face, and when he saw Zhou Bo sitting on the ground, his first sentence was: "Are you really not dead yet?"

Zhou Bo finally couldn't help laughing when he saw Dongyu so touching and expression, this was the first time he smiled when he came to the "death camp", which made his silent heart ripple.

"You just want me to die like that!?" Zhou Bo said with a roll of his eyes.

After coming back to his senses, Dongyu patted Zhou Bo on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Of course not, I know that your kid can't die." No, I rushed over as soon as I heard from you. After sitting down, he continued, "How did you feel when you went to war for the first time?"

Zhou Bo's face changed, and he frowned and said: "On the battlefield, is the life here so despicable, or is life originally very despicable!"

Dong Yu's body trembled, and he said bitterly: "Heaven and earth are not kind, and all things are used as dogs! Whose life is not despicable! It's just that some people live better in comparison." He gritted his teeth as he spoke, his eyes full of anger.

Zhou Bo didn't say anything when he saw this, because he understood......

Dongyu said suddenly: "......

Are you enlightened?"

Zhou Bo was stunned, shook his head and said, "I don't want to kill people." ”

"Hmph, don't you want to kill people, others won't kill you? Not killing doesn't mean you're right, and killing doesn't mean you're wrong. Because there is no need for any other reason to kill, the only reason is 'to kill'. As long as you have the heart to kill, then you won't be confused. ”

Zhou Bodao: "What is the heart of murder?"

Dongyu's tone was cold, and he said sharply: "Everything in the world can be killed!"

The murderous aura in the words seemed to envelop the entire camp. Zhou Bo's body was shocked, and he muttered: "Everything in the world can be killed......"

There was silence in the tent, and after a day of fighting, people dragged their tired bodies back to the tent, turned down and rested, only Zhou Bo and Dongyu sat opposite each other.

After pondering for a moment, Zhou Bo suddenly said, "Didn't you want to tell me about you last time?" ”

Dongyu was stunned, nodded and smiled: "From the first time I saw you, I felt that you were very kind. Any idea why?"

Zhou Bo shook his head and said, "I feel the same way, but I can't say why." ”

"Because I see in you the former me, stubborn but strong, lonely but persistent. The tone was flat, as if he was reminiscing about the past, but Zhou Bo heard a kind of helplessness about life.

"I was orphaned at a very young age, I didn't even know my last name, I was raised by an old beggar, because I like the light rain in winter, so I always call myself winter rain.

Since I was a child, I have been living by doing chores everywhere, and I have irregular meals and are bullied. Maybe there are many people like me in the world, and the ordinary is a portrayal of this kind of person.

But I'm not reconciled, I'm not willing to live like this, why can some people live without worries, and no matter how hard I try, I'm just an inferior person. When I was 12 years old, my only relative also died, so I left my hometown full of ambition and began to live a life of wandering......

Countless deceptions and failures made me completely disappointed in the world, so I decided to find a place to settle down. When I was eighteen years old, I went to Kyoto. It's a bustling and beautiful place, but it's not where people like me should be, it's realistic and brutal.
