Chapter 152: The Remnants of the Plague Corps
Since being destroyed by those people, Huanziyu has fallen into a long run, and the encounter in the past year or so has made her re-experience the hardships of most of her life, how much bitterness is hidden in the wind and rain, coaxing, bullying, hiding knives in laughter, all kinds of wicked people have been encountered by her, how much suffering has been experienced by her, and she is like a killer who is silent because of this, and will never care about true or false right or wrong.
The battle between the three parties was hot, but the more than ten sixth-rank soldiers could not fight to this extent, and the sixth-stage level could not have a sense of deterrence against the enemy with their bodies, and they had to face hundreds of armor soldiers, among which there were also many sixth-rank martial artists, who overwhelmed their figures in an instant, but there was no way to stop this kind of ending, after all, Chu Hong and the three of them had already fallen into it and could not save themselves.
Luo Hu relied on the occupation style and learned to participate in the Yongzhan of Kou Xiu Yongzhan on par, Chu Hong only fought with the usual spear method, and for a while it was not inferior to Lu Chu, but Mu Yucheng was suppressed extremely strongly by the ring fish, even if Mu Yucheng was brave in the knife technique, but the ring fish was able to use the body method to flexibly dodge again and again, and the charm method was extremely effective for Mu Yucheng, and the short-term loss of mind was extremely fatal for the competition in the realm of Yanwu, this was the first time that the ring fish showed her complete strength, but with this battle, it was enough for her to stand in front of Jiang Ming and othersγ
This is the wind continues to make a big fuss, the fire spread here in an instant, Mu Yucheng took the opportunity to dodge the attack range of the ring fish, a wall of fire suddenly isolated the two people, Chu Hong and the three of them stood on the same front again, but they noticed that the fire had burned up the Cloud Falcon Mountain, and at the same time spread farther away.
Chu Hong said in a low voice: "Luohu, you hurry up to the mountain, call Meng Lang down to fight with us, the two of us will stand up here first, if he doesn't break through now, he will probably be burned alive on the mountain, without his help, there is no point in us continuing to fight here." β
Luo Hu glanced at the two of them and said, "Miss Huan, eldest son, then you should be careful, I will come down as soon as possible." Saying that, he climbed the rocks on one side and rushed to the mountain, Kou Xiuyong on the other side noticed Luohu's actions, and his body rushed towards Luohu to kill, but Chu Hong once again shot arrows with a bow, although it was impossible for an arrow of this speed to directly injure Kou Xiuyong, but it could make him jealous and give up his plan.
Kou Xiuyong's way was blocked, he didn't think about killing Luo Hu again, but walked towards Chu Hong with the long knife, Lu Chu and Mu Yucheng on the other side also suddenly realized, and went towards Chu Hong and Huanziyu to besiege them, although they let Luo Hu go, but there is no doubt that the outcome of the three against two will become no suspense, what they have to do is to seriously injure the two mountain bandits in Wohua Mountain before Luo Hu returns, and even kill them.
There was no joy on Chu Hong's face, but he couldn't laugh at this time, but there was still a touch of softness in his expression when he faced the ring fish, and he said in a low voice: "It seems that it is really troublesome, it is a little impossible to retreat peacefully, these three people are not easy to mess with." β
Huanziyu hesitated for a moment and said, "I can fight two people alone, but you must defeat Na Lu Chu in the shortest possible time, otherwise I will also be defeated." Now it's just the two of us, and that's the only way to delay for the longest time. β
Chu Hong said: "No, I'm all here, there's no reason for you to bear so much, and we haven't reached that level, you protect me, I'll shoot arrows, believe in my seven empty arrows, I once shot and killed people with strong status, they should not believe it, but today it can be proved." β
Huanziyu said: "How many iron arrows can you shoot in a row? How many feather arrows can you shoot in a row?"
Chu Hong said: "The blessing of the iron tire bow, the iron arrows are seventeen, and the feather arrows are innumerable, which is enough to kill them." β
But seeing that Kou Xiuyong suddenly raised his knife and slashed towards Chu Hong, the double swords of Huanziyu crossed in front of him, and a flash of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, Kou Xiuyong was in a trance, but the time at this moment was shorter than Lu Chu. Just as he continued to exert his strength, Huanziyu's right-hand sword had already been swung out, and he had to fly away, but at this moment, Chu Hong's iron arrow came as scheduled, but Kou Xiuyong's reaction was too fast, and when the iron arrow flew half a meter around him, it was blocked by him waving a long knife, this arrow was more domineering and swift than the previous arrow shot at Lu Chu, and Rao is Kou Xiuyong's strength also took a few steps back to stabilize his body.
Kankan repelled Kou Xiuyong, but Lu Chu and Mu Yucheng came to the left and right to shoot, Chu Hong's arrow couldn't shoot, a feather arrow flew out of the exposed shoulder, but it didn't shoot the injury, Lu Chu almost hit Chu Hong's split with a knife, thanks to the timely shot of Huanziyu, and the left and right hands against Mu Yucheng and Lu Chu at the same time, so that Chu Hong was able to shoot two arrows again, forcing the two to retreat.
Huanziyu said coldly: "I said that I would fight separately. β
Chu Hong smiled awkwardly and said, "It's a little difficult, go on!"
The bottom of the mountain was in full swing, but the road that Luohu rushed up the mountain was extremely smooth, because there was only one and only road, so he just kept rushing forward, splitting several railings blocking the way, and when he came to the top of the mountain, he was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him.
There was a raging fire, in which in addition to the dead branches and leaves, there were hundreds of dead people's corpses, and on the edge of the big fire, about a hundred armor soldiers with broken armor looked at him uprightly, the swords and guns in their hands seemed to be in hand, and they would rush up to make Luohu several sections at the end of the command.
"That's the Four Commanders!"
I don't know who shouted, and in an instant, all the armor soldiers were released
After getting off the weapon, everyone's face was rippling with joy and laughing wantonly: "Finally reinforcements are coming, there are finally reinforcements!"
Just when Luo Hu didn't know how to answer, from the crowd, a tall and burly figure appeared, his hair was scattered, his face was covered with dust, his armor was half torn, if it weren't for the extremely iconic cold saw Kunwu in his hand, Luo Hu would definitely not recognize the person in front of him.
The two slowly approached, and finally hugged each other tightly by the fire full of the smell of burnt meat, but only for a moment, Meng Lang let go, and the fatigue and pain in his eyes could not be concealed, but he still smiled reluctantly, and said, "You are finally here, finally here." But why are you here?"
The tone of this sentence continued to rise, and finally turned into a roar and passed out, Meng Lang's shout fell, and all the living soldiers lowered their heads, and some even cried directly, originally a brave and warlike army, but now they are like begging people.
Luo Hu said: "Meng Lang, tell me, what happened?"
Meng Lang's eyes swirled with tears, and he looked at Luohu blankly, feeling that his body was trembling, so he turned around. When Luo Hu reached out and grabbed his shoulder, he was gently pushed away by Meng Lang. Luo Hu wanted to continue to ask, but some of those armored soldiers couldn't help it, and said in an almost hoarse voice: "Four commanders, more than 5,000 of us are dead, all dead!"
Luo Hu said: "With him, why did such a tragic battle happen?"
Another soldier said: "They couldn't kill us enough, so they trapped us in this Cloud Falcon Mountain, when we still had a few thousand, but now there are still a few hundred." They were forced to death by the Qin soldiers, and they were all forced to die. β
Luo Hu's face was heavily clouded, and he asked urgently: "Tell me, this mountain is extremely good at defense, why were you killed by this person?
The group of soldiers were silent, and after a long time, a soldier who was almost over twenty years old stepped forward, gritted his teeth and said: "It's an epidemic, there is an epidemic spreading on this mountain, the day after we came here, some people developed symptoms, in these days, people were infected every day, people died every day, and now there are only more than 100 people left." β
Luo Hu's heart sank to the bottom of the sea suddenly, and he shouted: "Then why don't you fight out, or surrender, in order to save this life temporarily, you can do anything, why do you want to stay here and continue to spread the epidemic?"
Everyone was speechless, Meng Lang slowly turned around, and said: "Before, a team of men and horses ran down the mountain to surrender, but they were all killed by the Qin soldiers, and no one dared to surrender since then. I also led them to rush more than ten times, but each time I was blocked back by Kou Xiuyong, even in our heyday, we had no way to break out of this exclusive cage, we could only wait for you to come to the rescue, we could only wait for you to approach their trap. β
Luo Hu said: "No, even if there are only a hundred of you left now, but my eldest son and I sent soldiers and horses to rescue, we have a way to escape from the canal, quickly integrate the people and horses, and leave with us, the eldest son and Miss Huan may not be able to hold on to the mountain." β
"Miss Huan? is the eldest son's confidante? I really want to take a look, but the situation doesn't seem to allow it. The corners of Meng Lang's mouth were slightly raised, as if he was smiling, but the next second he looked at the group of armored soldiers, and said: "The soldiers of the fifth battalion, according to the detachment at noon, stand in two teams, if there is a fish-eyed person, I will kill them on the spot." β
The more than 100 people quickly divided into two teams, the people in the former team seemed to be in a hurry, and most of the people in the latter team had blisters on their faces, and their spirits also looked a little sluggish. Luo Hu looked at this scene and muttered, "Are these those who have been infected? Could it be that the people in the fire are not the people who died in battle, but the people who have harmed the epidemic?"
One of the men in his twenties looked at the team in front of him unwillingly, gritted his teeth, suddenly raised the spear in his hand, and rushed forward, shouting: "Why don't you let me live? I want to escape, even if you are the commander, I will live!"
The soldier's shouts immediately attracted everyone's attention, he didn't attack anyone, he was just wielding a spear to disperse the crowd, but the blisters all over his face were particularly hideous, and just as he was shouting, a long knife flew from afar pierced his body, and he instantly spat blood and fell to the ground.
The knife was thrown by Meng Lang, and Meng Lang's eyes were blank and ruthless. And a group of armored soldiers looked at this scene, no ridicule, no sympathy, just pity.
Luo Hu said: "Why did you kill him?"
Meng Lang glared at Luo Hu with red eyes and said, "If I don't kill him, he will die sooner or later." He had been sick for six days, his body was covered with blisters, and he didn't even have the strength to pick up his weapon in normal times, even if he was allowed to go down the mountain to break through, it would only increase the merits of those Qin soldiers. Moreover, many people want to live, but I can only choose to give this opportunity to those who are more likely to live, since you are here, as long as you can break through, they are very likely to live. β
Luo Hu was stunned by Meng Lang's ruthlessness, but he had to admit that in this case, only this method could ensure the survival of more people, but how many people would die willingly?
Meng Lang smiled and wiped the dust from his face, and shouted to the armor soldiers: "Take up the weapons in your hands, protect the people of the front team in the middle, and I will stand with the people of the next team."
Tail, your death is worth it, and of course, maybe I will die before you. When all the armoured soldiers heard this, they seemed to be silent, and those who were alive were silent for those who were about to die, and those who were about to die were silent for themselves.
Luo Hu grabbed Meng Lang's shoulders and asked, "What do you mean by this? I came so far to save you and your men, do you want to go to death with this group of armor soldiers?"
Meng Lang waved his hand away from Luo Hu's hand, tore off his shirt and armor, revealing his blistered upper body, and shouted: "Why am I going to die? Why are we going to die? Because we are all infected with the epidemic, and no one can cure this epidemic, what are we going to do when we break out? Then we will go to harm our family, friends, comrades-in-arms? If this is the end, I would rather die on this mountain." β
Unexpectedly, Meng Lang was also infected with this epidemic. Mu Ya once said that this epidemic is very easy to enter from a person's wound, and Meng Lang has an extremely long wound in his abdomen, although he is wrapped in bandages again and again, but there is still blood seeping out, which is the reason why he is sick. And other armor soldiers, talking, eating, or even skin contact, can be infected with this epidemic, which is the real reason for the demise of 5,000 soldiers and horses.
Meng Lang sorted out his emotions, forced a smile, and said: "Luohu, I haven't died, and I feel quite scared now, so I don't have any sense of proportion, don't take it to heart." Let's go, don't let the eldest son get hurt at the bottom of the mountain. β
Luohu was stunned.
There are arrows to shoot, and there are countless arrows to shoot. At this moment, Chu Hong is a real marksman, he is holding a spear on one side, and shooting arrows with an iron tire bow on the other, seeing six ways with his eyes and listening to all directions, Huanziyu is resisting in front, as long as he is a little careless, he will shoot arrows to block, in this way, he no longer knows how many arrows he has shot, and only three of the more than ten iron arrows he carried, and Huanziyu has almost reached the limit of force.
Chu Hong continued to fight against Lu Chu, and at the same time used the Seven Empty Arrows to suppress the opponent and support Huanziyu, but he couldn't directly defeat Lu Chu, resulting in Huanziyu being suppressed by Mu Yucheng and Kou Xiuyong, and a few minutes ago, Kou Xiuyong was slashed with a knife. The situation had already begun to collapse, and if Luo Hu didn't show up in time, they would be really in danger.
"Ziyu, come back!"
Chu Hong fired three arrows in a row, forcing the three of them back again, the seven empty arrows did have the ability to surpass the limits of the martial arts realm, but he couldn't face three martial arts masters at the same time.
Chu Hong stretched out his hand to stop the ring fish, his eyes glanced at a knife wound on her chest, the knife: "How is it, how long can it last?"
Huanzi Yu moved his teeth lightly and said, "As long as you are here, I will not be killed by them." β
Chu Hong's eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "Luohu hasn't come down yet, it seems that I can only use that trick." β
Huanziyu said: "Then I will continue to entangle them, it will be much easier to shoot them." β
Chu Hong said: "No, I will definitely be able to shoot this time, and I will definitely die." β
The lethality caused by Chu Hong's archery skills varies depending on the material of the arrow, and the feather arrow can only be regarded as ordinary, and can only reach the level of the eighth stage, and with the addition of the iron tire bow, it can use the highest eight-lead power comparable to the peak of the eighth stage. And the iron arrow is a killing move to upgrade the situation, if it is a hard connection, even the martial arts master of the nine-stage beam spirit realm will be shocked and injured, and for the eight-stage martial arts master, it is an extremely strong attack, it is generally difficult to face the next arrow, let alone Chu Hong's original arrow shot Yu Zhaoxi's three arrows and five arrows at the same time.
His strongest arrow is the real Seven Empty Arrow, and if the arrow is fast, even the strongest will face a great threat. And today, he is going to shoot such an arrow to solve his difficult situation. However, the last time he shot the Seven Empty Arrows, his meridians were completely exhausted, and if he shot that arrow today, even if he didn't die, he would suddenly lose the battle, and he would no longer be able to help the ring fish. However, he had to shoot. In order for the ringfish to have a chance to escape, he had to shoot two people with one arrow, but he didn't have such an ability.
"Lu Chu, I want to ask the three of you, can the three of you join forces to catch my arrow?"
Chu Hong's eyes were fierce, but the corners of his mouth lifted a touch of mockery, as if he wanted to rely on this simple agitation to achieve his goal.
Lu Chu didn't say anything, Mu Yucheng snorted coldly: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, rely on this way to delay time, and wait until Luohu and Meng Lang on the top of the mountain break through together, right? But you haven't thought about how many soldiers and horses we have here, even if they can go down the mountain, can they break through our layers of encirclement?"
Chu Hong said: "You think a lot, I'm just targeting me with this arrow, if I shoot, one person will die, if two people and three people can join forces to catch it, maybe there will be no such risk, are you willing to try it?"
Kou Xiuyong shouted in a low voice: "Don't take that arrow, it's not an ordinary arrow, it seems to be stronger than that iron arrow, just dodge it." β
Chu Hong heard Kou Xiuyong reveal his mystery at a glance, narrowed his eyes, aimed the Seven Empty Arrow at Lu Chu, and said: "Since you know that I am not an ordinary person, but you don't dare to join forces to pick it up, you overestimate your own participation in the response, and look at my arrow, can you keep up with its speed!"
The arrow was on the string, the bow was slowly pulled up like a full moon, and the strength of Chu Hong's body was also draining little by little, and he would once again show the true power of the Seven Empty Arrows.
