Chapter 74
People are shot and stabbed in the middle, and black flags flutter on the hills. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info With this as a curtain, Deng Mianhao and Huo Yiben stared at each other with a gold-handled dragon head knife.
"Do you know who I am?" Deng Mianhao asked coldly.
"Of course I know, that's why I'm fully prepared." Huo Yiben is dressed up in fresh clothes today. Wearing a bright red robe, he wore a snow-bright silver-white beast pattern helmet, and the battle armor he wore revealed a brilliant light like the morning glow. However, it was not these that attracted the most attention, but the spear in his hand.
This spear is snowflake white all over. The body of the gun is seven feet, the head of the gun is one foot, and the inside is one foot. The end of the gun is carved into three sharp hooks, which can fly away from the barrel with the help of the internal chain when the hook is touched on a mechanism that twists freely in the middle of the gun. Can be used as a claw or as a pinning blade. Along the tail of the gun to the head of the gun, the carving is delicately carved with auspicious cloud carvings that have been passed down since ancient times. In the center of the gun are two handles large enough to be held by two hands, and the carving on this section is also different from the rest, the pattern is a pair of white pythons with intertwined bodies. The one-foot-long spear head is as flat as a sword blade and is divided into three parts. With the exception of the sharp tip at the very tip, the remaining two are sharp blades that fork in the shape of arrows, giving the head the overall shape of a fishbone. There is also a hidden mezzanine inside, as long as you twist the handle in the middle of the gun body, the hidden ninth foot gun body will automatically pop out, achieving a surprise killing effect. The name of this gun is engraved on the handle, called "Nine Heavens Cloud Python Gun".
This Nine Heavens Cloud Python Spear was found in the armory of Wanshan City. Its origin is unknown, and it is not placed on a conspicuous weapon rack, but is stacked with old weapons that have been used, and the surface is covered in dust and dirt.
What Zheng Puming's legion lacked most was weapons, so he took out these old blades in the armory and distributed them. One of the militiamen was lucky enough to get the gun, only to find that he couldn't control it at all. The gun looks light, but its weight is very much more human-friendly.
When Zheng Puming learned about it, he immediately ordered the craftsmen in the city to carefully wipe and repolish the gun, only to find that it was actually a gorgeous divine weapon. Immediately gave it to Huo Yiben to use.
Deng Mianhao's gaze fell on the Nine Heavens Cloud Python Spear, "Listen to my subordinates, your marksmanship is very powerful, but you lack the weapons you can take advantage of." Now there's it? ”
Huo Yiben replied: "Yes, yes, but I haven't tried it yet." ”
"You mean to use me to test the gun?"
"I don't dare to say anything about the test gun, I just want to know if my gun can beat your knife."
The golden sword used by Deng Mianhao was given by the first emperor and is said to have been forged by a closed disciple of a sword-forging wizard Yamaga Weng hundreds of years ago. This is also a knife that he personally cherishes, and he will only use it when facing important events, and he will be enshrined in the house on weekdays, and he will not show it easily.
The dragon head of the handle is magnificently shaped, and in the sunken dragon's eye, it is inlaid with a red and a basket of two-color gemstones. The blade is flat and thin, but when it reaches the tip of the blade, it gradually forms a slight arc upward, and the shape is like a burning flame. The blade is carved with a dragon head ornament, and when it hits an opponent, blood flows down the blade, leaving the otherwise hollow metal with a vivid blood color. Because of this special phenomenon, this knife is also named the bloody dragon head knife.
There was no more conversation between the two, only the sound of swords and stabbing winds. When you really fight with each other, an indescribable hot blood boils in your body like a fierce flame.
Deng Mianhao took out the first sword, and the blade broke through the air and slashed a sword qi like a blast in the wind. Blocked by Huo Yiben with a spear, the air wave swept the dust around the horse's hooves, forming a gust of wind and sand that obscured his vision.
In the second knife, Deng Mianhao drove the horse close with the cover of the wind and sand, and the bloody dragon head knife slashed horizontally, forcibly tearing a gap in the wind and sand. The tip of Huo Yiben's spear also pierced through the wind and sand, and the moment the two weapons came into contact in the air, sparks flew everywhere.
In the third knife, the handle of the dragon head rotated in Deng Mianhao's palm, and the blade pushed forward along the body of the Nine Heavens Cloud Python Gun, intending to cut Huo Yiben's wrist holding the gun. Huo Yiben immediately twisted the handle on the gun, and the ninth-foot gun body hidden in it ejected, and the tip of the gun rushed forward, just like a white snake spitting out a letter. Deng Mianhao was defenseless, and when he noticed that the edge was already in front of him, he hurriedly turned his head to hide, and the tip of the gun grazed his cheek, leaving a bloody mark the thickness of a little finger.
On the fourth knife, Deng Mianhao jumped up from the horse, and the posture of holding the knife with one hand changed to two hands, exerting all the strength of his body. Huo Yiben held the spear horizontally, his arms drove his body to sink downward, and when he sat down, the war horse was immediately pressed to the ground by this huge force.
In the fifth knife, Deng Mianhao's blade became more and more swift, and Huo Yiben only felt that the wind in all directions was like a blade slashing towards him. The speed was beyond his consciousness, and it was pointless to block or not to block at this point.
The sixth knife, Huo Yiben swung the gun completely by feeling, he didn't know if Deng Mianhao could see through his marksmanship, but at the same time as he was distracted, the arm holding the gun had been cut by a sharp knife, and the blood immediately stained the sleeves of his shirt.
The seventh knife, the sound of breaking the wind in my ears and in my mind, kept echoing. If it weren't for the touch of holding the spear in his hand, Huo Yiben almost thought that he was dead. He could no longer distinguish between the top of his head and his feet, nor the direction of the heavens and the earth.
The eighth knife, starting from the sixth knife, every knife that Deng Mianhao slashed accurately hit Huo Yiben's body. Be calm and composed, see every move of your opponent, and then find out the small flaws that can be taken advantage of. All along, he has been through countless matchups. He was a careful swordsman, not a swordsman with great skills.
The ninth knife, Deng Mianhao himself didn't expect Huo Yi to insist on this knife. In his thoughts, Huo Yiben could only withstand between the sixth and seventh knives. The previous eighth knife should have ended his life a long time ago, but the other party still seemed to have a strong sense of resistance. This suddenly reminded him of Bai Renpeng's words: "He is a warrior who will not give up until he dies in battle." ”
The tenth knife, Huo Yiben's arm holding the gun is sore, and the gun body seems to be his third arm, which is both a hope and a burden.
After dragging his feet on the dirt for some distance, Huo Yiben was repelled by Deng Mianhao's blade.
Deng Mianhao's eyes obviously had a hint of awe in his eyes, and said: "I thought you wouldn't survive the seventh knife, but now you have taken ten of my knives." It's good that Lu Liang and Liu Yichong did not die in vain. ”
Huo Yiben gasped, staring at the blood-bathed dragon head knife in Deng Mianhao's hand stained with his own blood. Until this time, he still had the illusion that the knife was swinging towards him, not staying in Deng Mianhao's hand. When he fought before, he just wanted to suppress Deng Mianhao with his sharp marksmanship, but when he really put it into action, he found that Deng Mianhao's knife skills were far more imposing than his own, and he was crushed to death by the other party. At this moment, ten knives have passed, leaving only a desperate fear like an abyss.
Deng Mianhao only opened his soul pattern ability at this time. A crack suddenly shattered in the air, and out of it appeared an otherworldly spirit like a butterfly breaking through a cocoon. The skin color of the whole body is as beautiful as white jade, four stout feet like jade pillars, ears bigger than wheels, slender like pythons, and long noses that droop straight down. The gaze is glazed, and the back is covered with sparse silver-gray short hair. This is the ancient alien beast soul spirit god light war elephant of the light attribute.
"Young man, honestly, I'd love to fight you again. It's just that we are all burdened with the fate of a force, and we can't help ourselves. When you meet me, you're destined to never see me again. As Deng Mianhao spoke, the Divine Light War Elephant had already stretched out its slender nose, like a python wrapping around its prey and wrapping around his waist and lifting it high on the elephant's back.
Before Huo Yiben could get on his horse, he saw that the Divine Light War Elephant rolled up its proboscis and lifted it up to a height of more than a person, aiming at the formation behind him. The white elephant trunk emits a dazzling golden light, like the sun's beam energy gathering in front of the nose to form a ball shape.
The speed and destructive power of the light were truly astonishing, and when the beam energy in the nose of the Divine Light War Elephant was fully released, Zheng Puming's army was as vulnerable as melting ice and snow. The beam of light emitted from the trunk forms a striking pillar of light that moves from side to side with the trunk. It's like using a small branch to flick back and forth in an ant colony, and the destructive power is simply more powerful and ferocious than the soul stone beam cannon.
Deng Mianhao pointed with a golden knife on the elephant's back, and the army behind him rushed to the stone tooth wall like a tide. Zheng Puming's army was like a mantis arm blocking the car, and it was scattered in an instant. Huo Yiben led his people out of the encirclement and went straight to the mountains behind the stone tooth wall, and the guards in charge of guarding the bridge also scattered and fled like a flock of frightened birds.
Deng Mianhao successfully passed through the stone tooth wall and went straight into the mountains, but he had no choice but to lose his way due to the complicated road conditions. At this moment, the crossbowmen and gunners who had been lying in ambush on both sides of the cliff launched an attack together, and the army that was caught in the middle of the mountain road neither advanced nor retreated, and most of them were killed and wounded in a dense rain of bullets in an instant.
The follow-up team was constrained by the iron suspension bridge of the stone tooth wall, and the stagnation of the troops at the front entering the mountains, creating a serious congestion. Deng Mianhao saw that he couldn't retreat, so he took his surviving subordinates and killed them on the winding and steep mountain road. Unexpectedly, on that road, there were already ambushes arranged by Ban Pinren to set up tripwires and Saling, and none of the cavalry who opened the way in advance could pass safely.
Deng Mian shouted angrily, and the Divine Light War Elephant under him also let out an earth-shattering roar, and when the elephant's trunk was neutral, it spewed out a shining golden beam of light, like a sharp blade, leaving a slender splinter on the steep mountain wall. Most of the rocks that fell were the size of human heads, and the archers and gunners on the cliff face were caught off guard, and most of them were killed.
Deng Mianhao jumped off the elephant's back and struck alone into the bushes on both sides of the mountain road, and when the soldiers who used the tripping ropes saw him, they all scurried around like mice and cats. However, just as he was about to kill, a fire broke out in the surrounding woods.
It turned out that Ban Pinren had already ordered people to sprinkle fire oil all over the woods, just waiting for Deng Mianhao to fall into a trap and turn him into ashes with a fire. The burning flames became more and more rampant under the action of the oil, and the agitation of the mountain wind became even more unscrupulous. The subordinates who came later did not dare to rush into the sea of fire, and could only watch Deng Mianhao struggle to death.
The army on the mountain road was in chaos because of Deng Mianhao's death, and the soldiers who were crowded on the chain bridge of Shiyabi continued to pour in. All this was expected by Ban Pinren. So he ordered the archers to set up a formation on the high cliffs, and the arrows stained with fire oil immediately rained down on the mountain path around the stone tooth wall. After a fire attack, the corps led by Huo Yiben, Jiang Yiping and himself slaughtered down the mountain from three mountain roads, and annihilated all the enemy troops in a dilemma in one go.
