Volume 1 Young Heart Chapter 75 The Night Battle on Wencheng Street
The evening breeze howled through the deserted streets, whining. The moonlight scattered in the sky was bleak and disappeared at this time. The originally empty long street became more and more cold and lonely at this time, which made people palpitate.
Li Xiao walked on this street, always feeling that an invisible force was stopping him and preventing him from moving forward. Looking up at the sky, the bright moon at this time was tightly covered by dark clouds, and there was no trace of moonlight. A gust of wind blew from nowhere, blowing on my body, a little cool.
"It's going to rain." Li Xiao wrapped his clothes tightly and quickened his pace.
This street is not long, but it is not short, but it is a little desolate, and there are some debris and stones along the way, which is very inconvenient to walk.
"You shouldn't be greedy for a late meal." Li Xiao sighed and said secretly in his heart.
It really shouldn't, if you choose to come back when Chunlan is cured, then you don't have to walk in the middle of the night. In the dark night, there is no light, and it is extremely inconvenient to walk.
Kicking away a tattered dustpan, Li Xiao took a few steps inside, and at this time, the lights of the streets elsewhere could no longer shine, and where he was, he could only rely on the moon lighting that appeared from time to time in the sky.
"Ahh It seemed to be cold, and Li Xiao couldn't help sneezing.
Just rubbing his nose, Li Xiao suddenly frowned, his back was suddenly cold, something was wrong, he always felt that some danger was approaching him. Before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly saw an afterimage coming towards him, accompanied by a slight sound of breaking wind, and the speed was very fast.
What it is, I can't see clearly, and I don't have time to see clearly, this speed, it only takes a few breaths to be able to reach him.
didn't have time for him to think about it, Li Xiao exerted force under his feet, stirred up several splashes, almost used all his strength, and quickly burst back. He didn't know what it was, but the training he had received from Chu Yi and Rome since he was a child made him react with unusual agility.
Dodge. Li Xiao took a few steps back, stabilized his body, looked ahead, and saw only a crossbow arrow stuck in the original position.
Although the street is in disrepair, the road is still paved with stone slabs, and it is really shocking how much strength it must have taken to achieve this level of strength when a crossbow arrow was deeply inserted into the stone slabs.
"Whew." Li Xiao exhaled and looked around vigilantly, he didn't know where the arrow stuck in the ground came from, and he didn't know if there was any other danger next, he could have such a powerful archery technique, which should not be able to be done by the commander Zhang Dabao.
The street is very dark and the visibility is very low, but fortunately, there is a way to train his eyesight in Roma's exercises, and you can see some of them in such an environment.
"Poof." There was another slight sound of breaking wind, and an arrow struck from the left front in a cold light. Fortunately, this time Li Xiao paid attention to the surrounding environment, and dodged slightly sideways, but before he could stand firmly, the dilapidated house on the side suddenly exploded, and then a cold light slashed horizontally, Li Xiao was busy stabilizing his body and dodging with the power of the wooden table.
Fortunately, there was a table in that position, otherwise he would have nowhere to borrow, and he was afraid that he would just make up for the killing machine that came out of the broken house.
Li Xiao leaned against the wall, stared at the person not far away, and couldn't help touching his abdomen with his hand.
The person who came was dressed in black, his face was covered with a cloth, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but he could vaguely see a scar in the corner of his eye in the residual light.
Could it be the one who watched the courtyard? But he didn't get close, so why did he shoot at him. Li Xiao thought to himself.
He didn't know what the origin of this person was, and he didn't know how long this person had been in the house, but what he could know was that this person was extremely patient, and he only sent the palace away at the third watch, and this person didn't know how long he had been waiting here, and the guy who was still hiding in the dark and releasing cold arrows, these two people had a tacit understanding, one released the arrow, the other waited, and pushed Li Xiao to the second person's knife step by step.
And the knife skills of the person who came were not weak, Rao is Li Xiao reacted quickly to dodge, the clothes in his abdomen were still torn, and the wooden table in place was also instantly shattered under the person's knife.
The dark arrow stopped, as if it was accumulating, waiting for the opportunity, Li Xiao leaned back, seeking a ridiculous sense of security. Looking around, I wanted to find a weapon to defend myself, but unfortunately in addition to the wooden sticks and dustpans, there were only some rocks left.
The bright moon outcrops, bringing a little cold light.
At this moment, the man with the knife made a strong foot move, clenched the long knife in his hand, and rushed towards Li Xiao, like the power of breaking the army, unstoppable.
Li Xiao leaned against the wall, tensed his nerves, according to the direction of the dark arrow, this is a dead end, he can ignore the dark arrow for the time being, he only needs to deal with the person with the knife, but the space here is narrow, and the person who comes is violent, full of murderous intentions, is completely aimed at Li Xiao's life, so he can't deal with the two maids of Yuxian'er a few days ago, he can play child's play, at this time, if he is not careful, I am afraid that his life will be lost.
Obviously, the person with the knife also knew this, and the several knives he slashed were all aimed at the vital point, and even forced Li Xiao outside little by little.
Prepare with both hands, whether to die under the long knife of the comer, or to be killed by the cold arrow in the shadows.
Bowing his head to dodge, his toes were a little on the ground, and the life-threatening long knife brushed Li Xiao's hair, and then another arrow struck, but fortunately it was still in a dead corner, and that arrow did not hurt him.
But Li Xiao didn't dare to relax, the long-knife man who was entangled with him at the moment was not weak in martial arts, and every knife contained true qi, although it was impure, it was enough to kill.
It's a pity that Chu Yi's martial arts he only learned the fur, and he only blamed him for being lazy, but he learned Rome's incense stealing techniques all over again, but it was useless, and he could only rely on a few moves to dodge. But this can't solve the problem after all, if it goes on like this, Li Xiao will run out of strength sooner or later, even if the man with the knife has no strength at that time, but there is still a person hiding in the shadows, and those few arrows are enough to show that the person is not weak.
Long Tao is also strange, he has been practicing knives for decades, although he is not a great achiever, but he has also killed countless people with the long knife in his hand, and those people can only resist a few moves under his own knife, but at this time, the young man in front of him, fifteen or sixteen years old, is young, but he can dodge his knife several times, and he has repeatedly dodged in such a narrow space, but what surprised him the most was that this young man dodged at the beginning.
He has been working with his partner for so long, he has never made a mistake, he fired two arrows in a row, if he was hit, he would be killed, and if he didn't hit, he could force Li Xiao to his side, and then he quickly killed him, it was originally a perfect script, but at the moment when his long knife was about to be cut, Li Xiao actually dodged, in that case, even a master of eight or nine grades had to be slashed by him, let alone just the young man in front of him.
"Tick." A light rain began to fall in the sky, dripping on my body, and there was a kind of coolness.
Another arrow rushed through the rain floating in the sky and rushed straight towards Li Xiao. And Li Xiao's position at this time has shifted a lot with Long Tao's attack, maybe even Li Xiao himself didn't realize that he was slowly no longer in the dead corner at this time.
A drop of rain fell on Li Xiao's face, bringing a little clarity. Skillfully dodging Long Tao's knife again, Li Xiao happened to see the flying cold arrow, and he was busy, one hand supported the ground, his legs kicked on Long Tao's body, and he retreated with strength.
"Jingle Bell." The arrows are empty, and the knives are empty.
Li Xiao exhaled and pursed his dry lips, feeling glad that he had escaped death just now. It's a pity that the crisis hasn't passed, and at this time, he is completely exposed to the sight of the person hiding in the shadows, and there are no dead ends at all.
Li Xiao knew this very well, did not stop, and suddenly rushed towards Long Tao, he knew that he would not be able to escape tonight, instead of avoiding without limits, it was better to take the initiative to attack, take Long Tao first, and use this as a threat, maybe he can resolve this crisis tonight.
But how can it be so easy, after all, Long Tao has experienced countless battles, how can he not see Li Xiao's thoughts, and it is not easy to take him down.
Squatting down slightly, Long Tao's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Li Xiao, who was approaching quickly.
Li Xiao too, don't think about the person in the dark, just stare at Long Tao, this is his first real battle, it is a battle to the death, he can't relax, because once he relaxes, only death will greet him. He wanted to live, especially after this trip to the palace of the king of Yu, he wanted to live even more.
It's rare that God has given him a chance to start over, how can he let go easily.
The corners of Long Tao's mouth rose slightly, his right foot stepped forward heavily, and the long knife in his hand was lifted from the bottom up, and then he slashed violently, and the momentum of breaking the army reappeared.
Fortunately, Li Xiao has already entered the state, and at this moment, Long Tao's knife is not so fast in his eyes, and every mention and slash is much slower. Dodge back and dodge easily.
Long Tao was startled at first, then put the long knife back, squeezed his left hand tightly, let go, charged his strength, and rushed away with one palm.
Li Xiao didn't show weakness either, dodging just because the other party had a knife, and he couldn't fight hard, but if it was a palm attack, then he wouldn't be intimidated.
Then impacting the remaining strength, Li Xiao also met it with one palm.
I heard a boom, and a flash of lightning crossed the sky.
"Smack." The two of them stepped back together, drawing two long footprints in the electric light.
Li Xiao is not bad, there is a lot of true qi in his body, and he only took a few steps back from this pair of palms, which is not a big deal. It was Long Tao, who fell backwards violently, single-handedly supporting the ground and stabilizing his footsteps.
I was very surprised, although Long Tao practiced the knife, he never slacked off on the kung fu in his hands, he was full of confidence in this pair of palms, and he did not feel the true qi in Li Xiao, but Li Xiao really repelled him.
"Could it be that the information is fake?" Long Tao said secretly in his heart.
The man hiding in the shadows was happy at first, because he was confident in his partner's palm, but the result shocked him.
At first, I just thought that Li Xiao had achieved light skills, but now it seems that this young man has other kung fu, especially the true qi in his body, and it is incredible that a martial artist who has practiced for decades can do this.
Gritting his teeth, the man in the dark twisted his neck slightly, it seems that Long Tao is not Li Xiao's opponent, if the two of them are allowed to fight again, time does not allow, the people who are staring at the courtyard are estimated to be coming back soon, and they don't have much time. Now he needs help.
Thinking about it, he pinched two short arrows in one hand and slowly placed them on the bow and crossbow.
This night is the night of the dead.
