Chapter 18: The Darkness Before Dawn

It's cold at night, especially when the second half of the night is approaching dawn.

At this time, it is the time when people's vigilance is the lowest, and Fang Zhong understood this in the previous life, and many surprise attacks and sneak attacks will be launched at this point in time, and the success rate will be greatly improved.

Therefore, seeing that the dawn came, he also became more careful, although he also closed his eyes like others, but his mind was empty, as long as there was a little wind and grass, he could react immediately, and then judge the best way to deal with it according to the situation.

Crash.....

Suddenly, a very slight sound came into Fang Chong's ears, making him tremble and open his eyes in an instant.

At the same time, the burly man in armor also stood up, glanced at Fang Zhong with some surprise, nodded, and looked into the distance.

Fang Chong's face changed slightly, and he frowned and looked into the distance, and his heart was a little more vigilant about this burly man.

The burly man's name is Zhuang Jun, Fang Zhong only knows that he is a master invited by Shopkeeper Liu at a great price, he is powerful and cautious, he is said to be very good, and he once left a great reputation in the mountains in the south of Zhaonan County, but what the means are Liu Shopkeeper did not elaborate.

In the distance, the sound grew clearer and clearer, like rats gnawing on something, and like the sound of the wind blowing.

At this time-

Fang Zhong and the burly man Zhuang Jun's faces changed almost at the same time, and they shouted loudly: "Enemy attack, there is an enemy attack.....

Wow!

The whole caravan was startled, and the heavy cavalry quickly put on their armor and climbed on horseback, while the other guards drew their long swords and were on serious alert.

At this time, Fang Zhong noticed that the three caravans, Shopkeeper Liu's side and Mr. Liu's bookkeeper all walked out, and the two approached the horses intentionally or unintentionally, they wanted to quickly climb on the horse's back when the situation was critical, and escape as soon as possible.

Especially Shopkeeper Liu, his eyes are always wandering in the carriage intentionally or unintentionally.

This made Fang Zhong even more sure that the goods transported by Shopkeeper Liu should be in the carriage, and all the goods outside were just disguises.

On the other side, the guards of the other two caravans were also on alert.

To Fang Chong's surprise, although they all looked into the distance, intentionally or unintentionally, the blade turned out to be aimed at each other.

It's really strange that the two caravans are facing each other at this time, are they enemies or are they jealous?

"This mixed caravan is just so much fun. Fang Zhong saw all this in his eyes, but he didn't think about meddling in things, he was only in the realm of a third-rate martial artist now, he really didn't have the capital to meddle in things, and he didn't have that idleness, God knows what would happen once he got involved?

In the distance, the sound of shredding grew denser and louder.

After half a ring, a dark shadow finally appeared in front of him, dense, like rows of war horses, and there was a faint sword light.

"No, it's a horse thief. Zhuang Jun shouted, pulled out his long knife with a sonorous sound, and shouted: "Brothers, protect the caravan, try to rely on the carriage and the boxes containing the goods, the other party will definitely have a rain of arrows, first avoid this first wave of arrow rain." ”

As soon as the words fell, a large black dot suddenly flew from the sky, and the sound of sneering was endless.

The whole sky was dark, full of dense arrows, there was hardly much space, and it was only a moment before everyone arrived, fortunately Zhuang Jun reminded early, and most of them hid behind the carriage and avoided the arrows.

However, there were still some people who did not have time to dodge and fell in a dense rain of arrows.

Poof!

The arrows pierced through the flesh and splattered a series of snowflakes, and even in the dark dawn, faint shadows could still be seen, and the smell of blood came to the face.

"Dad, it seems that our luck is really not very good, we met so many horse thieves on the first night. Fang Zhong hid behind the carriage, looked at Fang Zongqing and said with a smile.

"It's not very good, but now that it's happened, I can only act on the opportunity. Fang Zongqing's eyes burst out with a fierce murderous aura, and said: "Kill if you can, if you can help the caravan, try to help, if you can't do anything, we have to run for our lives." ”

"Hmm. ”

.......

The darkness before dawn is brewing bloody killings.

After a round of arrow rain, countless horse thieves began to charge, one by one extremely fast, with the impact of the horses, in a blink of an eye, they came to the caravan.

Kill!

There was no superfluous nonsense, the horse thief was bloodthirsty, and when he raised his hand, the long knife fell, and a living head rolled down from the side of the carriage, and the red blood stained the carriage red, like splashing ink.

"Sons, kill them all, and leave no one behind. ”

I don't know who in the group of horse thieves screamed, and suddenly all the dense horse thieves went crazy, howling and waving the long knife in their hands, and rushed towards the caravan.

In the distance, the horse thieves were densely packed, I am afraid that there were hundreds of people, and although the caravan was full of thousands of people, most of them were ordinary people, who were responsible for driving horses or sorting goods, and there were less than two hundred people who could really fight, and at this time they suddenly fell into danger.

The war horse galloped, and the sword was dazzling.

This is fighting, this is killing, bloody, violent, bloody.

The burly body of the Zhuang army stood at the front of the guard, turned over and climbed on the war horse, rushed out with the heavy cavalry, and shouted: "Kill, kill all these miscellaneous pieces, and use their blood to pay tribute to the dead brothers....."

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The high shouts of killing were deafening, echoing in the void, Zhuang Jun actually rushed out with heavy cavalry, the strong body was like a rock, and the movement was a terrifying force, but all the horse thieves who stood in front of him were all in different places, and died miserably.

What really surprised Fang Zhong was that the defense of this Zhuang army was ridiculously strong, only wearing light armor, but it was even stronger than those cavalry wearing heavy armor, and the ordinary sword slash had no effect on his body at all, and he was blown out in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, the horse thief had rushed to the front, skillfully surrounding the caravan in the middle.

Hundreds of horse thieves were divided into three teams, sniping at Shopkeeper Liu and two other caravans, and at the end of the horse thieves were more than a dozen horse thieves wrapped in armor and robes. They didn't make a move, but judging from the momentum, they could see that these were the real masters, the leaders of this group of horse thieves.

Blood was splashing, staining the earth red, and the smell of blood was extremely strong, and it was blown straight into Fang Chong's nose by the night wind.

Fang Zongqing looked at Fang Chong with some concern, and found that Fang Chong didn't have the slightest abnormality, and was immediately taken aback: "Chong'er, don't you feel nervous, or scared or something?"

Fang Chong was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "Dad, should I be afraid?"

Being asked like this made Fang Zongqing a little difficult to answer, so he could only smile, patted Fang Chong's shoulder, and said, "Chong'er, you are really surprising me more and more." ”

"Dad, there's something more surprising to you. With a slight smile, Fang Chong's body moved, and he instantly rushed out and killed among the horse thieves, the bright blade turned in his hand, slashing through the wisps of death beams, simply and accurately slashing through the throats of those horse thieves, almost breaking the roar, which was shocking.

The blade has to fight to the bone, and if you can't win it, you will die!

A good man should be happy with enmity and hatred, and he is afraid that this word will never appear in the dictionary of the strong, nor will it appear in Fang Chong's dictionary.

At the same time, Fang Zongqing also moved, although the long knife in his hand was not as mysterious as Fang Chong's ordinary sword technique, it was natural, but it was also powerful, and there were wisps of flames beating on the blade, making him much more powerful.

Puff puff puff.....

The long knife in Fang Chong's hand was like a blade of death, and every slash would take the life of a horse thief.

Soon, there was no horse thief by his side, all of them died under his knife, those ordinary horse thieves, the highest is the third-rate martial artist realm, meeting him is equivalent to death.

"The Lancet"

"Eighteen Slashes of the Wind"

"Tang Gate Angry Slash"

"Whirlwind Seventy-Two Blades"

All kinds of mysterious knife techniques were displayed in Fang Chong's hands, and they were natural, almost reaching the realm of the unity of human and sword, and life could be harvested in movement and quiet.

"It's a pity that I don't have the internal strength, otherwise it would be twice as lethal to cast a sword. Fang Zhong felt a little regretful in his heart, but at this time, he couldn't take care of it anymore, his eyes were full of horse thieves wielding long knives and slashing at him, all he could do was kill.

Ordinary horse thieves generally do not have a high level of cultivation, and the strongest one is the realm of third-rate martial artists.

The third-rate martial artist realm was like an ant in front of Fang Chong, and he could be killed with a wave of his hand. Therefore, after a chaotic battle, in addition to the heavy cavalry that can be called a killing machine, only he killed the most horse thieves, and there was not a single living horse thief within three meters of his side.

Even Fang Zongqing was not as strong as him, not because of his cultivation, but because of his martial arts.

Of course, Fang Zongqing's Wave Breaking Fist is also very powerful, but Wave Breaking Fist tends to attack alone, but it can't burst out with due power in this kind of group battle.

And Fang Zhong is different, there are countless martial arts in his head, heads-up, group attack, sneak attack..... Such a person is a killing machine, a mobile superweapon, even if he has no internal strength.

"Twelve, go, kill that kid. ”

"Yes. ”

Finally, Fang Zhong attracted the attention of the master among the horse thieves, and a person walked out of the horse thief in a black robe, holding a long knife in his hand, and walked over coldly, the powerful momentum still made Fang Zhongzhong's heart shake even if he was more than ten meters away, and the qi and blood in his body were churning.

"Relying on momentum alone makes my blood churn, this kind of cultivation is indeed very powerful, at least it is a second-rate martial artist realm. Fang Zhong was startled, and his pupils contracted into pinpoints.

Brush!

He didn't hesitate, he retreated decisively, the speed was incredible, two points faster than when he was fighting in the crowd just now, so that the black-robed man was stunned and didn't react, when he came back to his senses, Fang Zhong had already disappeared, and he had already hidden behind the heavy cavalry.
