Chapter 13
Almost at the same time as the man screamed, Dongfang Tianma suddenly felt a cold wind blowing behind him. The other people www.biquge.info in the pen "Fun" Pavilion obviously noticed it, and when they turned their heads to look, they found that on the village road dozens of meters away, there was a small clay puppet monster the size of a royal car crawling quickly towards this side.
The reason why it is said to be a clay puppet monster is not only because of its huge size, but also because of its strange appearance. There are eight of them in the shape of a pyramid about a meter long, and holes the size of two human heads have been dug out at the top of their disc-shaped bodies, and two skulls of Bai Sensen are trapped in them. When it walks, it moves on all eight legs, like a spider walking on the beams of a house, and somewhat like a crab running rampant on the beach.
"What the hell is this?" Lin Jiazi frowned and glanced at the clay puppet spider, as if he was very disgusted with this big guy made of clay.
Fu Lang had already activated his own soul pattern energy, held the tiger's head sword and shield in his palm and said, "This is not an ordinary earth puppet, I can feel that there is soul pattern energy spreading on this thing." ”
Xu Yun, who was on the side, also pulled out the silver-white sword blade and said, "Give this guy to us, there is no need for the traveling soul tattoo warrior to get involved in unnecessary trouble." ”
Fu Lang nodded in agreement, "That's what I said." Then the soul pattern of the tiger's head sword and shield was lifted, and the manifest form stood aside.
Xu Yun raised the blade of the sword in his hand, and walked straight towards the clay puppet spider with elegant steps, and the clay puppet spider immediately noticed that someone was approaching him, as if it was really a living creature, and suddenly turned its flat head around. The two skulls looked like a pair of giant eyes, raised two spear-like long feet, and stabbed Xu Yundang on the head.
Although the attack of the clay puppet spider was fierce, Xu Yun's pace was even better, only to see him turn slightly sideways, he easily dodged this head-on blow, and then stood up with both feet, touched the ground with his toes, and easily jumped on one of the slender feet of the clay puppet spider. At this point, he did not stop moving, and with the same action as before, he jumped into the air with the help of the body of the clay puppet spider. In the air, his white clothes fluttered, and the silver-white sword blade in his hand actually emitted dazzling white light, and out of thin air, he slashed out an arc-shaped sword qi visible to the naked eye, falling from the sky, splitting the clay puppet spider in two from the middle and cutting it into two messes of mud. This move is one of the six styles of the dragon sword school in the swordsmanship skills of the city-state swordsman group, and the name is called "Flying Dragon Falling Stream".
It wasn't until Xu Yun swung his sword and slashed out that white light sword qi that Dongfang Tianma realized that his sword blade was a soul guide weapon. The so-called soul guide equipment is a weapon equipped with energy soul stones, because it can stimulate the soul stone to release energy during use, so the damage caused is far more than that of ordinary weapons, but the soul guide equipment is not as durable as ordinary weapons, and it is necessary to replace the soul stones that provide energy in time and maintain them frequently. Because of this, the production cost of the soul guide equipment is also much higher than that of ordinary weapons, which directly leads to the fact that the soul guide equipment is not destined to be popularized, and can only be provided to large armed organizations such as the city-state swordsman regiment or the imperial capital guard.
Let's talk about the swordsmanship skills of this city-state's swordsmen. As we all know, as a member of the city-state swordsman corps, you must be a qualified swordsman who can master swordsmanship skills. Although there are many people who consider it an extremely honorable thing to become a member of the city-state swordsman order, there are still a large number of people who join the city-state swordsman group for the purpose of learning and mastering the swordsmanship skills within the city-state swordsman order. These sword skills are divided into three main categories, namely the Dragon Sword School, the Phoenix Sword School, and the Tiger Sword School, and each school has six styles. The dragon sword school is mainly based on skills, one type of flying dragon falling into the stream, two types of dragon rushing into the abyss, three types of sword walking dragon flying, four types of dragon game painting, five types of dragon soaring thunder roar, and six types of dragon tyrant. The phoenix sword school is based on speed, one type of phoenix shadow wing step, two types of phoenix howling and phoenix singing, three types of burning phoenix nine days, four types of burning phoenix in fire, five types of bath flame phoenix, and six types of wind master. The Tiger Sword school is dominated by strength, with one type of sword falling tiger claw, two types of evil tiger fighting the wind, three types of tiger breaking into the sky, four types of running tiger and one sword, five types of angry tiger wind, and six types of tiger barbarian.
Swordsmen who have just joined the city-state swordsman group will choose a school of swordsmanship to learn, and those who can fully master one school and learn all six styles can already be regarded as a top master. It is said that a swordsman who can master two or all of the swordsmanship of the genre is completely equal to those who are proficient in controlling the soul pattern energy and raising the soul pattern ability to the highest stage.
It was the first time for Dongfang Tianma to see such a swordsmanship skill, and he was completely attracted by the swift movements and gorgeous moves, and the whole person seemed to be enchanted, so that he didn't even notice the appearance of the second clay puppet spider.
Dong Haifan, Lin Jiazi, and Yan Fa also pulled out their respective blades, Yan Fa took the lead in the charge, and the other two assisted left and right, and the three formed a triangular formation and rushed straight towards the clay puppet spider. Yan Fa used a broad-bladed heavy sword, which he held upside down in his hand, and when he rushed in front of the clay puppet spider, his body rotated in place, and the blade of the sword in his hand slashed out an oblique sword qi with the help of the rotating force, as if a tiger suddenly raised its claws after approaching its prey. This is the first type of sword pendant tiger claw of the Tiger Sword school.
Dong Haifan and Lin Jiazi were on one side, and at the same time cut off one of the long legs of the clay puppet spider. The dirt monster with its huge body staggered back a few steps, and its head was completely smashed into mud by Yan Fa, and it soon lost its ability to move and collapsed there. At this time, I heard a shout from the direction of the village: "Help! Save me! Who can come and save me! ”
Xu Yun ran towards the entrance of the village without saying a word, and Fu Lang also followed, and the two ran more than a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye, just when they encountered a clay puppet spider attacking a villager at the entrance of the village. The villager's left foot was stabbed by the pointed foot of the clay spider, and he was lying on the ground screaming in pain.
With a flash of golden light, the tiger-headed sword and shield in Fu Lang's hand was blocking the pointed feet stabbed by the clay puppet spider, and Xu Yun on the side raised his sword and fell, and at the same time cut off the two slender pointed feet of the clay puppet spider that hurt people. Fu Lang saw the opportunity to follow up, and finished off the behemoth with the golden blade that came out of the tiger's mouth. At this time, the others rushed over one after another, and Dongfang Tianma helped the crazy villager to come later.
Lin Jiazi helped the injured villager treat his wounds briefly, and Xu Yun asked, "Where are the rest of your village?" ”
The villagers looked frightened and responded: "Everyone has been captured by monsters made of clay puppets, you must save everyone's lives!" ”
Xu Yun soothed: "Don't panic first! Tell us everything you know, and we'll take care of the rest. ”
After listening to Xu Yun's words, the villagers eased their emotions a little, and started from the beginning: "Our village has been craftsmen making clay puppets since our ancestors, and everyone in the village can make clay puppets, even children. We would choose to settle in this place because it is very close to the mudflow slope, where there is the best quality soil, and we usually take soil there to make clay figurines. About 10 years ago, a couple went out to collect soil and did not return in the evening, and the next day they went to the mud slope to look for them, only to find them both dead in the mud. In fact, this kind of thing happens from time to time, and the key is that the couple left behind a ten-year-old boy named Zhang Jingyou. This Zhang Jingyou became an orphan and could no longer get the love of his parents. After discussing with the people in the village, they decided to raise him together, but they didn't expect that Zhang Jingyou attributed all the resentment of losing his parents to the clay puppets, and he kept making strange clay puppets, and also destroyed the finished products made by others. The people of the village gradually became intolerant of his behavior, so they threw him out of the village. Who would have thought that Zhang Jingyou would still be unrepentant when he became an adult, and he also built a residence on the mud slope privately, and named it the mud puppet mountain courtyard. The clay puppets and strange evil sects he made turned out to be free to move around the clay monsters, the ones you killed just now. At first, it was safe and sound, but some time ago, there were often villagers who went to the mud slope to disappear for no reason, and in the past few days, that bastard drove a large number of clay puppet monsters to openly attack the village and capture all the people. ”
After everyone stood or sat down to listen to the villagers' narration, Fu Lang said to Xu Yun: "Zhang Jingyou must have used the power of the soul pattern to allow those clay puppets to move freely, since the other party is a soul pattern scholar, then the matter will be troublesome." What do you think? Do you want to hire me, a soul tattooer, to accompany you? ”
Yan Fa said with an unhappy look on his face: "Hmph! Although we don't have the ability of soul patterns, the equipment and swordsmanship beyond ordinary people are still enough to fight the enemy, and your kindness is appreciated. ”
Xu Yun smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to stop Yan Fa, and said to Fu Lang: "I welcome the two of you to join, but I want to say ugly things in front, when our city-state swordsman regiment goes out on a mission, we are determined to lose our lives at any time, so I hope the two of you can also be mentally prepared for this." If this mission can be successfully completed, I will apply to the organization for the payment they deserve. ”
Let Lin Jiazi stay behind to protect the two villagers, and the remaining five people will go on the road together and head towards the mudflow slope located in the northwest of Tufu Village.
This mud slope is named because of the soft soil, and the plants that grow here are extremely lush, and the five of them are still down the hillside, and they can see a tall building sitting high in the distance. It's a tall building, but it's not so much a tower. A large black flag hangs above the cone-shaped ceiling, with a circular white pattern in the middle, and a large scarlet "even" character in it, which is rolled up as a wave in the air when the mountain wind blows. When I climbed the slope, I saw a high wall around the perimeter of the tower, leaving only one entrance, and in front of the door stood two clay statues, both of which were carved into the image of a red-haired and blue-toothed ghost wearing battle armor.
Fu Lang stopped everyone: "These two clay puppets should also be able to move freely, Zhang Jingyou put the two of them here to guard the door, it is not so simple." I didn't have much strength to deal with the clay puppet spider just now, so let me show my hand now! With that, he strode up.
