Chapter 34: Night Attack and Counter-Killing
On this morning, they arrived at the Yu River, but at this time, the early spring had just arrived, the temperature was still low, and the thick ice on the Yu River broke on a large scale, and as the river flowed, there was a strong wind blowing on the river, and the broken giant ice blocks collided with each other, even the mid-level Qi Refining Realm martial artists did not dare to pass easily. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The nine of them stopped briefly in the woods a mile away, waiting for the wind to weaken before crossing the river on ice.
The two brothers Baili Daxiong and Erxiong were taking a nap, and the other six were meditating and cultivating.
Zishang also practiced diligently, and among the nine people, he had not reached the Qi Refining Realm, so he had to improve his strength as soon as possible in order to cause them less trouble.
When he was away from home, Zishang didn't have any friends, and he finally made such a few sincere and enthusiastic friends, and he didn't want to cause the boat of friendship to capsize because of delay.
A few days ago, Zishang began to study the superior light skill "Treading Snow without a Trace".
Although he had no experience in practicing light skills, the previous Wind Willow Sword Technique and Fufeng Sword Technique made his body coordination extremely good, and he was able to get started in just a few days.
But after getting started, the progress was relatively slow, and Zishang was not in a hurry, after all, the minimum threshold for this light skill practice was a half-step Qi Refining Realm.
Even if the sub-merchant's physique was stronger than the ordinary half-step Qi Refining Realm, it would not be possible to achieve it quickly in more than ten days.
Moreover, Zishang's talent is not against the sky, and the strength of the current half-step Qi Refining Realm is all caused by a series of coincidences.
Time passed quietly, the sun set, night fell, and a quarter moon slowly rose.
Zishang and the others simply ate something and climbed to the tree early to sleep.
What they didn't know, however, was that on the other side of the woods, a group of men and horses had also come here and stopped here to rest.
This group of cavalry consisted of sixty-six people, each riding a sturdy war horse, with a black headband tied on his forehead, holding a large sword and spear, and wearing black and shiny armor, like a strong army of iron cavalry.
But in fact, they are the terrifying "Emperor Soul Army" within a radius of dozens of miles!
A few days ago, Zishang was surrounded by the thirty or so people of the Emperor Soul Army, and later the Eight Prodigal Sons killed most of them.
But there were still a few people who escaped, and they passed the news back, but Gao Yanghuang went to defend the country two days ago, and he happened to be absent.
After discussion and analysis, the four high-level Qi Refining Realm speculated that these young people might be half-step Qi Refining Realm, and at most one or two Beginner Qi Refining Realms, so they left a high-level Qi Refining Dual Realm peak to guard the mountain gate.
The other three Qi Refining Realm martial artists selected sixty-three fierce warriors, fully armed and fast, searching for the nine of them along the road.
They were preparing to participate in the uprising of the Dayi merchants, and if they could recruit these people into the Emperor's Soul Army, then they would all be very happy.
If the merchants do not know how to lift up, they will take their blood and sacrifice the banner.
"Second brother, this is all to the Yu River! They won't have already passed, right? Then we still chase after it?" Gao Xuanshan, the fourth in line, asked with some concern.
The second brother Gao Qitie said gloomily: "It shouldn't be, the Yuhe River has melted ice and strong winds have been blowing in the past few days, and it is impossible for them to pass! It should be nearby, early tomorrow morning, search this radius of five miles, if you don't find ......"
If you can't find it, then you can only do it, their boss Gao Yanghuang should have returned to the cottage, and the matter is imminent, he specially told him not to go out to cause trouble.
Duan Zhuang and Gao Xuanshan glanced at each other, and then said, "That's it, second brother!
Gao Chotie didn't object, waved his hand and said, "Go!"
After a while, the two of them disappeared into the night with ten people......
……
At the beginning of the Qin case, a squad leader of the Emperor Soul Army was just thirty years old, and he was at the peak of the Nine Realms of Body Refining.
He was assigned by Duan Zhuang to search tonight, he was very reluctant, he was tired to death during the day, and he had to work hard at night.
He wandered slowly and leisurely in the forest alone, looking at the dark forest, except for trees and trees, there was not even a screaming crow, and the feeling of boredom filled his heart.
"Where is this Nima going to find it in the middle of the night!"
Walking was a little annoying, Qin Casechu sat under a big tree and complained boredly. After a few yawns, sleepiness kept coming up, and the upper and lower eyelids kept fighting.
"Zizi~"
Just when he was half-asleep, he suddenly heard a sound of water, and he was full of excitement and immediately woke up.
Qin Xinchu quietly poked his head out from behind the tree, and saw that ten steps away, a fat man was recklessly releasing water in front of a tree......
Since the fat man had his back to Qin Xinchu, he didn't notice Qin Xinchu who was hiding not far away and peeking at all.
After putting the water comfortably, the fat man took his trousers, walked back, walked about ten feet, hugged a big tree, climbed awkwardly, and lay down on the branch to sleep.
This fat man who released water in the middle of the night and was still peeped at was the second bear of Baili......
Qin Xin looked around at the beginning, and sure enough, he found that there were people sleeping on several trees around the fat man, and the number was almost eight or nine.
This discovery made him overjoyed, and with a magnificent turn, he was about to go back the way he came.
Boom!
"Oh!
Too excited, Qin Xianchu turned around violently and hit another tree hard, so painful that he bared his teeth, covered his head with one hand and his mouth with the other, and didn't dare to scream.
The pain eased slightly, and he cautiously ran around the tree that had "kissed" him on the forehead and ran to the other side of the woods.
"Second master, second master, good news! Good news! I found those young people! It's on the other side of the forest!" Qin Xianchu excitedly told Gao Qitie the news.
Gao Chotie's eyes flashed, and he immediately stood up and shouted: "All assemble! Find the target, you are ready! As soon as your third and fourth masters come back, you will set off!"
After giving the order, Gao Qitie turned to look at Qin Xinchu, who reported the news, and said, "You did a very ...... What's wrong with your head? It's swollen like this?"
Qin case: "Uh...... It's okay. ”
They waited for about a quarter of an hour, and the others who had gone to search for them came back one after another, and Gao Choptie immediately ordered the horses to be tied up and marched forward on foot.
Sixty-six people quietly touched the location of the Zishang in the night, and at this time, the nine Zishang were still asleep in the tree, unaware that danger was approaching.
Under the leadership of Gao Zhutie, Duan Zhuang, and Gao Xuanshan, the Emperor Soul Army quietly moved in the direction of Zishang and others.
After the tea time, sixty-six soldiers of the Emperor Soul Army came to the nine people and thirty zhang away, and everyone stopped, waiting for Gao Zhitie's order!
Gao Chopping Iron took advantage of the moonlight to carefully look at the nine people lying on the top of the tree from a distance, but the distance was still a little far, and he could only vaguely see a few black shadows protruding from the branches.
Feeling that several people were asleep, Gao Chopping Iron beckoned back, and the people behind immediately understood, and the sixty-one people under the peak of Qi refining immediately dispersed, forming an encirclement.
Because Gao Xiantie estimated that eight of the nine people on the opposite side might be half-step Qi Refining Realm or even Qi Refining Realm martial artists, when fighting, they had almost no effect, and even those three refining peaks might not be able to get started.
But they didn't do nothing, and while a few of them were asleep, sixty-one of them drew their bows and arrows, ready to inflict heavy damage on and even kill several of them.
At this time, the arrow is on the string, just waiting for the code of high cutting iron!
Seeing that all the departments were ready, Gao Chopping Iron slowly raised his right hand......
……
The sleeping Zishang was glowing with faint starlight in the depths of his consciousness, like a candle about to be extinguished in a dark room.
Under the reflection of the starlight, Zishang's consciousness was awake again, and his consciousness slowly sank into a cool water, and the feeling of coolness penetrated into the depths of his soul, but this water did not ripple a little.
Zishang's consciousness did not have a trace of distractions, and he quietly watched himself slowly enter the water from a third perspective, without superfluous thoughts.
I don't know how long it took, Zishang heard an ethereal and vast Sanskrit sound from the void, which made him intoxicated, and the Zishang in his vision was still sinking at an imperceptible speed.
The Sanskrit sound still echoed in the void, and gradually tears flowed from the corners of Zishang's eyes......
It seems that years, decades, and only a blink of an eye have passed, and a strong sense of crisis has washed away the Zishang in the field of vision, as well as the curling Sanskrit sound.
Suddenly, Zishang's heart tightened, his body was violently agitated, and he immediately woke up, with an extremely sad and angry expression on his face, his eyes were slightly red, and there were undried tears in the corners of his eyes......
"Huh?"
The look of grief and indignation was fleeting, replaced by doubts, and the startled Zishang felt that something in his mind seemed to be lost like the ebb tide of the sea, and he tried to catch it, but the bamboo basket was empty.
Before he had time to think about it, he felt deadly danger, like a thorn in his back, and restless emotions rushed madly into his heart.
"Ahh
Zishang couldn't stand it anymore, and raised his head to the sky and roared, and this loud shout woke up the other eight people in their sleep, and they reflexively sat up and looked at Zishang.
From Zishang's awakening to his yelling and everyone waking up, it all happened in one breath, Gao Chopping Iron was not good in the dark way, his right hand was immediately put down, all the archers released arrows at the same time, and Gao Chopping Tie and other five people followed the rain of arrows and ejected out.
Woohoo!
The rain of arrows pierced the night sky, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of sharp arrows rushed to the face.
Fortunately, seventy percent of the arrows were missed, and Zishang and the others reacted very quickly, and several people stopped or flashed, unscathed.
The strongest Baili Cat immediately discovered the rapidly approaching Gao Chopping Iron Five.
"Little Tiger!
Hearing the warning of the Baili Cat, Baili Tiger immediately dodged behind the nearest big tree. I only felt that the black shadow was passing by, and a strong wind was blowing by my side, and Baili Hu couldn't help but secretly say that it was dangerous.
One blow missed, Gao slashed the right arm of Tie Qiyun, fisted the eagle's claws, and fiercely buckled towards the Baili Tiger.
Baili Tiger was not slow to react, quickly squatted down, leaned forward, kicked his feet violently, and punched Gao Zhitie's abdomen with all his strength.
Gao Chopping Iron fell into the air with a claw, and his fingers were deeply buckled into the trunk of the tree, at this time, his afterglow found that Baili Hu's fierce punch was coming, so the hand that was clasped in the tree suddenly exerted force, buckled a large piece of wood, and his body twisted with strength, narrowly dodging a punch.
After a brief exchange, the two immediately distanced themselves.
Through a short period of contact, Gao Zhitie had already roughly judged the strength of the young man in front of him, and it was not an ordinary Qi Refining Triple Realm.
You must know that on the day that Gao Yang Huang left the cottage, Gao Cleaved Iron broke through to the Quadruple Realm of Qi Refining!.
Baili Leopard and Eagle barely restrained Duan Zhuang in the late stage of the Qi Refining Triple Realm, and the two brothers Baili Daxiong and Erxiong were more miserable, and they were pressed and beaten by Gao Xuan Mountain in the middle of the Triple Realm.
The big bear and the second bear couldn't hold on, and the Baili crocodile hurriedly joined their battle circle, which was inseparable from Gao Xuanshan.
The three pinnacles of refining body also worked with Zishang, and Zishang relied on Xiaocheng's sword technique of the underworld, coupled with a flexible sense of battle, and did not fall behind at all.
Baili Lion came to Baili Mao's side and asked him what he should do next with his eyes, Baili Mao said in a low voice: "You go to help Zishang, quickly solve those three people, and then kill all the people in the Body Refining Realm!"
"Hmm"
Baili Lion nodded in agreement, and immediately ran towards the battle circle of Zishang.
Gao Chopping Iron frowned, he never thought that their strength would be so strong, the worst teenager was actually a half-step Qi Refining Realm, and the other eight were all Qi Refining Realm.
The overall situation of the Emperor Soul Army is at a disadvantage, Baili Tiger's strength is not bad, and Gao Zhitie may not be able to seriously injure him in a short period of time.
What's more, there is also a Baili cat over there who didn't shoot, and it seems that that guy is even more powerful than Baili Tiger.
This made Gao Chopping Iron a little hesitant.
Originally, it was guessed that a few people would refine qi double at most, but I didn't expect that there would be two qi refining triple realms and five double realms.
Even Baili Cat may be a mid-level Qi Refining Realm powerhouse!
He retreated in his heart, but these nine young men were too strong, and if they chased and fought fiercely, he didn't know how many of them would be able to escape safely.
And the loss is so heavy, after I go back, I will also be stripped of the skin by Gaoyang Wilderness!
But if they don't retreat, they will also be consumed to death after a long time.
"Ahh
"Ahh
In a few breaths, Baili Lion shot the two body refining peaks to death.
"Brother Lion, just give it to me, you go kill the others!"
At the same time, it is still a little stressful to fight against three powerhouses at the peak of body refining, but this can also hone Zishang's combat awareness and the sword technique of the underworld.
However, as soon as Baili Lion came, he killed two people in a few strokes, and Zishang hurriedly opened his mouth to stop it.
Baili Lion glanced at him, nodded trustingly, and then slaughtered the Emperor Soul Bandits in the Body Refining Realm like a flock.
Withdraw!"
Gao Choptie didn't dare to hesitate any longer, now they were at a disadvantage, and if they didn't retreat, they would be wiped out.
"Withdraw as much as you can. He thought depressedly.
However, Baili Cat has been watching the whole battle situation, and when he saw that Gao Chopping Iron wanted to withdraw, he sneered, and immediately came behind Gao Chopping Tie and attacked Baili Tiger back and forth.
Seeing that Baili Cat was ready to make a move, Gao Chotie's face suddenly became gloomy.
"The third and the fourth!"
He let out a loud shout, and then quickly killed Baili Hu, trying to force Baili Tiger away, and then the other two converged.
However, he never expected that at this time, the "net" of Baili Cat had been weaved, and none of them could escape!
