Chapter 34 Entry

"When it comes to long-range projectile weapons, the only things I can think of at the moment are bows and arrows, javelins, throwing ropes, crossbows, and all sorts of throwing weapons. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info flying stone rope to throw stones to attack, in the case that the stone is not big enough and can not hit the vital acupuncture points of the human body, the power of the weapon is no different from the slingshot of the bird; the crossbow is divided into two kinds of crossbows and single-shot crossbows, the crossbow is expensive, civilians can not afford it, do not consider, and the single-shot crossbow wants to shoot a target a hundred steps away, the crossbow body will be very large and bulky, so it is not suitable for carrying. ”

"The javelin, on the other hand, can only be used if there are no obstacles at high altitude and the throwing skills have been rigorously trained, so it is as unlikely that tomb robbers can use it as a metal weapon that requires high internal strength and great skill to use; As for the bow and arrow, if the thief can hit his target with it from a hundred paces away, why wouldn't a prisoner with such strength and accuracy participate in martial arts instead of doing the act of stealing corpses? ”

"So, I speculate, the thieves don't have long-range projectile weapons on their hands. Under such circumstances, if they did not turn around and run away after seeing Uncle Li captured, but still wanted to attack us, then I think the most likely way for them to attack was to set up an ambush in the woods. ”

Just as Xia Shuanghan was talking about this, the sudden accident made Xia Shuanghan once again understand what it means to be "one hundred secrets and one sparse", what is called "in the face of reality, no matter how careful you think, you will be full of flaws", and what is called "Don't use normal people's minds to understand and predict the actions of criminals, because most criminals are not normal people!" ”

Xia Shuanghan did predict that the thieves did not have long-range projection weapons, but without long-range weapons and unable to attack from a distance, it does not mean that there is only one option left: "ambush plus melee combat"! Because, there are also medium-range weapons such as blow arrows in the Great Xia Territory that can hit targets three feet away! This kind of thing is something Xia Shuanghan didn't expect.

"Be careful!" This was the only information Xia Shuanghan got from Lin Xiran's mouth before he was protected behind him. Xia Shuanghan didn't even have time to fully understand what was going on, when he saw Lin Xiran protecting her tightly behind him, and on his left upper arm, there was a blow arrow about three inches long and thinner than ordinary chopsticks!

Between the lightning and flint, Xia Shuanghan guessed what happened: the thieves were indeed ambushed by the three of them on the way down the mountain as she said, but they cleverly chose to hide in the bushes with bated breath, and then attack from behind after Xia Shuanghan and his party walked in front of them.

The sound of two blowing arrows shot from behind broke the air only had time for Lin Xiran, who was walking in front, to turn around to protect Xia Shuanghan after hearing the sound, but there was not enough time for him to avoid all the arrows or prevent Uncle Li from escaping. After all, if Lin Xiran chooses to subdue Uncle Li the moment he hears the sound of breaking the air, then Xia Shuanghan will be hit by an arrow! Although the cloth bag carried on the back of Xia Shuanghan can play a certain protective role, what if the blow arrow is poisonous? Two blow arrows! Lin Xiran couldn't take this risk.

"Young Master Lin, how are you?" Xia Shuanghan, who was protected by Lin Xiran and retreated, looked down at the injury on Lin Xiran's left upper arm, and said anxiously: "In addition to here, are there other injuries?" ”

"I'm fine." Lin Xiran, who had a calm and calm tone, raised his hand and pulled out the blow arrow on his left arm without squinting, and his eyes were always in the direction where the blow arrow was fired. And there, Uncle Li had already joined up with the two thieves.

"How's it going, little girl?" The bearded man standing at the front spoke first, and he teased Xia Shuanghan and said, "Even if there is no long-range projection weapon, I can still deal with you!" ”

"Miss Xia, you protect yourself and stay away from them." Ignoring the ridicule of losing his beard, Lin Xiran looked at the three people in front of him and said to Xia Shuanghan on his side: "As long as you are not caught by them as a hostage and want to subdue the three of them, my ability alone is more than enough." ”

"Master Lin, just with your habit of going back and forth to the Vast Mountain on weekdays, do you think we won't deliberately use some hands and feet on blowing arrows in order to target you?" After being untied by another long-faced thief, Uncle Li took a short knife handed over by his accomplice, and said with a cruel smile: "Don't you feel it?" You can't move your left hand anymore, right? ”

"Despicable!" Xia Shuanghan cursed while squatting down and taking out the dagger that Shicai had collected from Uncle Li from his boots, then stood up and cut the sleeve of Lin Xiran's left arm where the arrow was hit, looked at the wound that was not too deep and did not bleed much, and said: "The blood stains on the wound are not blackened, it is not poison." But since this medicine can make people's limbs unable to move flexibly, it is estimated that it should be paralyzed, right? ”

"Huh", Uncle Li whistled and said, "Miss Xia is amazing, you know that the wind is falling, but you even know that you are paralyzed?" You don't miss the black market in the capital! ”

"Hehe, I didn't go much shopping, so I went twice." Xia Shuanghan is still talking and laughing on the surface, but he is actually extremely flustered inside. Paralysis, this thing Xia Shuanghan knows, Lin Xiran, who deals with murderers every day, of course also knows, as literally, paralysis is a kind of medicine powder that can make people's bodies paralyzed.

Taken internally, it can paralyze the whole body for two hours; For external use, it will gradually paralyze from the injury to the whole body, and the duration of paralysis varies from person to person, generally ranging from one hour to three hours. What's worse is that the paralysis cannot be forced out of the body by internal strength, and after poisoning, luck forcing the poison or using light power to escape will shorten the time for the paralysis to spread throughout the body. In other words, if Lin Xiran still wants to protect Xia Shuanghan now, then he only has the road left to go through pure hand-to-hand combat.

"Miss Xia, you go first." Lin Xiran, who realized that if the time dragged on any longer, the situation would become more and more critical, and whispered: "Even if I can't subdue the three of them because I am paralyzed, I can buy you some time to escape, you leave me alone, go quickly." ”

"Don't say stupid things, you're here to protect me, I can't leave you behind." Xia Shuanghan, who was desperately thinking of a way to save herself, said and stuffed the dagger in her hand to Lin Xiran, her purpose was obvious: before the paralysis on Lin Xiran's body completely attacked, out of consideration for their own safety, the thieves would not easily approach a martial artist with a sharp blade. In this way, Xia Shuanghan can buy himself more time to think about countermeasures.

"Miss Xia, now is not the time to blindly talk about righteousness!" Lin Xiran took the dagger given to him by Xia Shuanghan, put on a defensive posture and said, "While I can still move now, you can go quickly!" ”

"What a walk!" Xia Shuanghan, who was racking his brains to think about countermeasures, was interrupted by Lin Xiran, and suddenly became irritable, "We have only walked half of the mountain road at present, even if I leave you to go first, you will not be able to buy me enough time to run out of the mountain." Moreover, even if I find a place to hide in order not to be chased by them, don't forget, I only know one way, but Uncle Li knows every shortcut on this mountain! He only needs to ask his accomplices to guard the way down the mountain, and then take a shortcut and go back to lead the dog in the fence yard and rush back to catch me, I can't run away at all! ”

"Master Lin, Miss Xia, I advise you to be obedient and arrested!" Uncle Li, who vaguely heard the conversation between Xia Shuanghan and Lin Xiran, and his two accomplices looked vigilantly at the dagger in Lin Xiran's hand and said: "There is still one of our partners ambushed on the mountain road ahead, and his task is to intercept you Xia girl who escaped alone in front, so ......"

Uncle Li's threatening words didn't listen to Xia Shuanghan anymore, because she suddenly thought of an idea to save herself.

"Pretend your feet are numb." This is Xia Shuanghan's instructions to Lin Xiran quietly without moving his lips as much as possible.

“???” Lin Xiran looked at Xia Shuanghan, his eyes full of doubts.

"Snapshot made!" This is the meaning in Xia Shuanghan's eyes.

Thereupon......

"Lin Gongzi, Lin Gongzi, how are you? Lin Gongzi? Xia Shuanghan, who was flustered, threw down the cloth bag on his shoulder, avoided the injury on Lin Xiran's left arm, and naturally hugged him from the side, and cooperated with Lin Xiran to create a picture of "the man's left leg is paralyzed and unstable, and the woman holds the support to prevent falling".
