The mountain behind the main hall of the northern night front.

At the same time that the four sages and the nine sages fled Sizhou respectively, there was a group of people who were still fighting.

The five sages, as well as Guo Lan and Long Wei, failed to escape the pursuit of the Southeast General Hall and were trapped in a cave.

Originally, it was already a certain path to death, but with Long Wei's poison and Guo Lan's skills, this only a wide cave has become an insurmountable difficulty for Gong Yi.

The cave is not very deep, but it is completely impossible to see the inside from the outside.

The three teams of men and horses that had been sent in before just let out continuous screams, and then there was no movement.

Although Gong Yi is superb in martial arts, he can't act rashly. Naturally, it is impossible to enter on horseback, but when he gets off the horse, the combat power of his cavalry must be greatly reduced.

This is the reason why nearly 200 people were sent in successively, but none of them came out alive.

Of course, this is also about their opponents.

As He Xinghan, a veteran of the five sages who used to be a hero of the rivers and lakes, he naturally retains a lot of the necessary secret weapons of some assassins.

Although his subordinates don't know martial arts, they can use these blowguns and darts to exert a certain combat power.

The two sides are truly at a stalemate, but it won't last long, because one of the most important factors is about to change all that, and that is the grain and grass.

Although it was to save food, this morning, the food on the side of the five sages had all been exhausted.

Gong Yi's men and horses are not much better. Although they were outside, they didn't carry dry food with them, and they only relied on the game caught by the soldiers they sent, which was not enough for each person.

Anxiety, hunger, anger, all kinds of emotions came flooding over me in this situation.

Both inside and outside are equally difficult.

Gong Yi looked at Zilu and asked, "Is there any news from Pi Shuai?" ”

Zilu shook her head and her gaze stopped at the entrance of the cave, "Maybe there will be good news from their side." When the time comes, you can send the Night Wolf Battalion to capture the enemy in the cave in one fell swoop. ”

Gong Yi smiled and nodded, and also looked at the entrance of the cave, but the uneasiness in his heart gradually rose.

Tens of thousands of horses and horses pursued a hundred people, and the news should have been transmitted back a long time ago, but two days have passed, and there has been no movement.

It's just a matter of being someone else, but Pi Shuai has always been unambiguous about Yefeng's style of doing things, so it can only mean one thing - it didn't go well over there, maybe it was worse.

While he was thinking about it, a man suddenly walked out of the hole.

The southeast night front outside immediately became alert, drew his blade, and was ready to make a move at any time.

But the people who came out didn't have weapons on them, and they weren't Guo Lan and Long Yi.

"Which one is the palace commander?"

"Who are you?"

"It's just an ordinary night leader in the file room of the Northern General Hall, and I have a few words to convey to the palace division under the order of the five sages."

"Please."

"Now that we are trapped here, we must be dead. But those who are also trapped are those outside the cave. ”

"Oh, what's the trouble?" Miyayi sneered.

"The palace division must not be quick to speak for a while."

"Then I'm quite interested, and Your Excellency may wish to explain it for me."

"Gong Division, you and the others actually have the same confusion as everyone in my cave, and the food and grass are exhausted."

"Our army can attack the cave with a hard fight, and the reason why we are waiting here now is just to hope that you can take the initiative to come out and ask for surrender."

After listening to this, the visitor also smiled.

"Since Gong Fentong is so confident, then I don't need to say more." After speaking, the person who came walked towards the cave again, "If the palace division wants to do something against the subordinates, then please." ”

"You stay." Zilu shouted.

"What else?"

"Since the five sages have sent you here, there must be a solution, so you might as well say it clearly."

"But I don't know if the palace is willing to listen?"

"Speak." Gong Yi said with some impatience.

"Hehe, the meaning of the five sages who sent me here is to write a war letter."

"Haven't you and I been fighting? How can you say that the war book says? ”

"Gong Division, we have already used the corpses of your men to form a formation in the cave, and if you want to attack, you will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Since both sides are unwilling to back down, the five sages want to make an agreement with the palace division that you will withdraw fifty steps and let my brothers in the hall go out of the cave and fight with you. Since there is no way to avoid it, it is better to give it a chance as soon as possible. ”

"Are you going to take this opportunity to escape?"

"The people in my hall are all on foot, even if they want to escape, how can they get faster than the cavalry under the command of the palace?"

"Okay, I'll do what you say, and let the man in the cave out."

After speaking, Gong Yi waved his right hand, and the subordinates of the southeast hall in front of the cave each took fifty steps back.

"Thank you." With that, the man turned and went back into the cave.

……

After a while, the five sages led Guo Lan, Long Yi and a group of subordinates to walk out slowly.

"I've seen the virtuous elder." To everyone's surprise, Gong Yi was very respectful to the five sages.

"Heh, here and now, do you still want to talk about etiquette?"

"Although Gong Mou can't disobey the order, he is private, and his respect for all the virtuous elders is the same."

The old man agrees.

"Since the virtuous old man has already decided to get out of the hole, there must be no need to bother with it."

Gong Yi smiled and took two steps forward.

"The juniors have a reluctant request, dare to ask the seniors to agree." Guo Lan took a step forward and stood in front of everyone on his side.

"I promise you."

"Don't the seniors ask the juniors what they want?"

"Naturally, it won't be that I want to let you go, then, there is only one thing to ask for."

"Don't the seniors blame the juniors for being rude?"

"I've also always wanted to see what the strength of the juniors of the Northern Hall is."

"Then I will ask my seniors to teach me."

understands that people don't need to talk nonsense, Guo Lan wants to compete one-on-one with himself, and Gong Yi was already convinced from the moment he saw his gaze.

Zilu took a step to stop Gong Yi, "Don't work for the palace, let me meet him." ”

Gong Yi smiled and shook his head. Zilu looked at him in surprise, but couldn't refute it.

From Guo Lan's two steps just now, Gong Yi was sure that this man's kung fu was definitely not bad. Gong Yi still understands Zilu's martial arts, although he is also middle-class, but it is far from enough to deal with this person.

Guo Lan walked steadily towards Gongyi, but his heart was not calm.

The three teams that were sent in before were not completely without merit. Just as the Five Sages ordered everyone to pack up their equipment, an enemy who pretended to be dead took the opportunity to burst out and stabbed the Five Sages with his last strength.

Although it was only an iron thorn, it penetrated into the flesh very deeply, and although the blood from the wound was stopped, looking at the complexion of the five sages, the injury was definitely not light, and it must be treated as soon as possible.

That's why in the end people choose to come out.

Gong Yi didn't know what Guo Lan was thinking at this time, although he was also tortured by hunger, his steps were not chaotic, and he was still very powerful.

As he shortened the distance between the two, Guo Lan gradually felt the silent sense of oppression.

Can't delay any longer, thinking of this, Guo Lan suddenly rushed forward.

It's just that this kind of trick of breaking the static with movement is not a threat in Gong Yi's view.

Gong Yi held the sword in one hand and hung it very casually, but the moment Guo Lan approached, the blade of the sword was suddenly raised from the lower right.

Guo Lan didn't expect Gong Yi to be so agile, so in a panic, he had to stomp on the ground with his left foot, and at the same time try to lower his body to the right, barely dodging.

But Gong Yi's sword seemed to be connected to his hand, and he used it freely, and when it reached the height of Guo Lan's shoulder, it stopped abruptly. Immediately afterwards, he slashed horizontally at Guo Lan's neck.

Guo Lan leaned over again at the height of the limit, almost squatting on the ground, before he flashed this life-seeking trick. It's just that a few strands of black hair were cut off by this blow.

Guo Lan did not pause, and immediately retreated backwards, stopping about two feet away. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his hands and adjusted his breathing slightly.

Where is this unified martial arts, it simply surpasses some of the night handsome!

Although the moves are not gorgeous, each blow of Gong Yi is performed in an extremely limited space, and the power contained in it is definitely no less than that of a regular general.

And, from beginning to end, he was only moving his right arm, and his body and legs were as steady as Mount Tai.

Guo Lan must admit that he underestimated him too much.

Long Wei stood beside the five sages, and he didn't notice that the center of his clenched fist was already covered with sweat.

Everyone was sweating for Guo Lan, especially Long Wei, because in terms of martial arts, he could only have a tie with Zilu, and most of his real tricks were performed through the use of poison. But after the poison, he almost didn't dare to use it anymore because of the shadow in his heart, so he was already unfamiliar.

At this time, if Guo Lan can't gain the upper hand, then their chances of successfully escaping are very slim.

And just as he was thinking, the situation took a turn for the worse.

The men and horses of the southeast hall let out a burst of exclamation. It turned out that Guo Lan took the initiative to attack again, and Gong Yi also swung his sword to stab, but Guo Lan's purpose this time was not Gong Yi himself, but his sword.

is also Mo Yue's beloved apprentice, although he doesn't like to use it much on weekdays, but his proficiency in spider silk is not inferior to Duan Xuan.

With his nimble body and agile gestures, he succeeded in snatching Miyagi's sword with a rope wrapped in spider silk. After that, he actually attacked Miyayi with the same stabbing blow.

For the first time, Gong Yi took two steps back.

"'The art of seizing the army'? I don't want anyone in the Northern Hall to know how to do this. Gong Yi couldn't help but nod approvingly.

Plundering troops is far from simply appropriating the enemy's weapons for yourself. The reason why the person who uses this move will only take the enemy's weapon after a few moves has a unique purpose.

The purpose of the first few moves is to observe and comprehend the enemy's moves, and after performing the capture, they can be returned as they are.

This requires that the person who uses this trick must meet several conditions at the same time.

First of all, it is necessary to have a general understanding of all weapons, including weight, length, corresponding strength, etc.; Secondly, you must have a calm personality and a clever mind, and you must learn the opponent's moves while looking for an opportunity to seize it in battle; Moreover, it is necessary to be decisive and courageous, otherwise a moment of hesitation will kill the enemy; In the end, his own martial arts must be very high, otherwise he will not even be able to survive the first few moves, let alone take the army.

In the entire Northern Hall, and even in the entire Yefeng, there are very few people who can have these characteristics, and Guo Lan is one of them.

Of course, Gong Yi was very surprised to be lucky enough to meet such an opponent.

He adjusted his body slightly, and for the first time, he put on a battle stance. And Zilu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him like this.

Guo Lan leveled his sword and attacked it back with Gong Yi's moves before he captured the army, which was not inferior in speed or momentum. Moreover, there is almost no difference in strength.

Gong Yi did not dodge, but stepped forward.

Instinct tells Guo Lan that there is danger, so he is ready to jump away at any time when he rushes forward.

But Gong Yi's next move exceeded his reaction speed.

Gong Yi suddenly took half a step to the left, formed a fist with his left hand, and hit Guo Lan's chest, while his right hand was palm outward, grabbing Guo Lan's sword hilt.

Guo Lan hurriedly pulled out a hand to protect his heart, barely slowing down Gong Yi's fist, but was pressed to his chest by Gong Yi.

However, there was a continuous sharp pain in his lower abdomen, like a hammer blow, but he could not escape because his right hand was caught.

It turned out that after Gong Yi stepped forward, his center of gravity was placed on his left leg, and his right leg kicked forward. At this time, Guo Lan's hands were controlled, and his feet were immaculate in order to stabilize his body, and his lower abdomen became empty.

With the last kick, Gong Yi did not retract it, but increased his strength and let go of his hands at the same time.

Guo Lan screamed and flew out, while Gong Yi took back his sword at the same time.

"The Art of Grabbing Troops"!

What Guo Lan didn't expect was that among the few people who met the cultivation conditions, there was Gong Yi.

A man who has cultivated the "art of seizing soldiers" to the extreme.
