Chapter III. Jian asked Beiyan 143.I miscalculated an account
After the long leopard tail behind Chang Cheng was cut in two by Shen Guiyi's sword, the attack momentum brought by the anger and pain became more and more fierce and domineering; However, this kind of explosive attack frequency switching does not pose any threat at all to Shen Gui, who is already at ease.
Because he had already passed that 'uppercut' and clearly touched the limits of his opponent's abilities.
Although the internal and external sensations of severe pain and anger will indeed make the body burst out more explosively in a short period of time; But after all, this kind of explosive power is not a 'normal strength' obtained through hard practice, so it can't be retracted and released freely, like the roundness and smoothness of the arms and fingers! If the offensive of this 'Ancient God' just now was quite orderly, then now it has completely turned into chaos, and the unobtrusive wildness in the body of 'it' has also begun to show in front of Shen Gui's eyes......
However, the only thing that touched Shen Gui was that even though the 'Great God of the Long Ride' had fallen to this step, there was still no expression fluctuation on that 'human face'...
The offensive is almost in a state of madness, but there is still a calm expression on his face, this strong contrast is really very weird!
However, Shen Gui clearly knew that for a human, animal, or mountain spirit monster or other 'thing' that has fallen into a state of madness, the best way is to let him 'self-consume'! This kind of power, which does not belong to him, will definitely bring a very serious backlash......
If you want to gain power, you have to pay for it. This is the law of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, at least everything born between this heaven and earth is imperceptibly constrained by this law.
However, Shen Guike didn't have time to wait for the 'sequelae' of this long-riding god to attack on its own, so while he was easily dodging the opponent's 'Eagle Claw Stampede', he was also concentrating on repeatedly sneaking up on his half-truncated tail......
Anyway, he doesn't need to talk about any morality in the face of this kind of speechless 'monster'!
If the other party is measured according to ordinary beasts, then cutting off half of the tail is actually harmless at all; Aside from geckos, which are experts in 'scaping their tails', even if they are ordinary beasts, their lives are not at all in danger......
But this long-rider god is not a beast after all, or not exactly the incarnation of a beast! So when half of his tail was cut off by Shen Gui, it was like a dam that broke the embankment, and kept spurting blood full of fishy smell, and there was no momentum to stop at all......
Since there is no doubt that there is blood flowing in the body of the long vehicle, no matter what kind of smell this blood is or what its components are, as long as the total amount of blood loss reaches a certain level, it will definitely bring a great burden to itself......
Obviously, in the 'Lingtai Divine Sense' of this ancient god, there was no emergency treatment related to 'first aid measures', so when he 'spilled' the blood in his body for half an hour, he finally fell to his death under Shen Gui's Spring Rain Sword......
The fatal wound was the back half of the tail that was ripped out alive by Shen Gui......
For Shen Gui, although this battle can't talk about the word dangerous, it is enough 'inexplicable'! He couldn't figure out where the dead ghost Yue Haishan got such a thing to guard the Three Immortal Caves for him? When he played such a hand, did he want his disciples to be good, or did he hate his disciples for not being clean?
In fact, there are still many unsolved mysteries in this 'Hidden Treasure Cave', but apart from Yue Haishan's resurrection, I am afraid that a standard answer will not be found.
A copy of "Zhuhai Midnight Sword", a copy of "Haishan Heart Sutra", plus a three-inch town dragon nail named "Tianxuan", are all the gains of Shen Gui's trip. Before leaving the Three Immortal Caves, Shen Gui, who was full of inquisitive spirit, also used the faint light from the braziers around the altar to give the 'Changyan remains' who had fallen to the ground a 'disembowelment'......
Unfortunately, he was neither a doctor nor a veterinarian, so he could not infer any results from the distribution and structure of the internal organs; However, his only conclusion was that the body of this thing was no different from that of a human, except that it was longer and more muscular......
Shen Gui, who was covered in blood, slowly groped along the way he came, and just after he regained some eyesight when he reached the entrance of the Three Immortals Cave, he saw three 'old acquaintances' with nervous expressions, who were pacing anxiously......
I don't know when Qi Yan, who came out of hiding, saw Shen Gui's figure, and couldn't care about the stinky blood stains on his body, so he immediately took two steps forward and said to him eagerly:
"Whether you get the Zhenlong Nail or not, we have to get out of here as soon as possible! I've been secretly following the dozen or so kids guarding the mountain gate, but I found that two of them sneaked out of the Jianchi station and went straight to Xufu County, a hundred miles away! ”
The two sides had their first battle in Zhijian Stone, and after Urge and Ding Xueyin separated the 'final' victory, Shen Gui naturally chose to get off the donkey under Zuo Qiuliang's kind words, and entered the Valley of Forgotten Worries with him as a 'guest', and at the same time completely left Zhu Wenhan's life behind. However, he didn't take the life of this 'Young Governor Zhu' to heart, but Zhu Wenhan's 'dog-legged people' obviously didn't have such a big 'mind'!
No matter how bad Zhu Wenhan's martial arts are, he is always the only son of Zhu Yuntao, the governor of Bashu Dao! And Zhu Yuntao, who has been painstakingly operating Bashu Road for more than 30 years, has personally commanded and participated in more than 100 battles of all sizes, and there are dozens of war sores on his body, and the arrogant generals under his command are all ruthless characters who lick blood from the knife edge!
is such an heir to the world's fierce generals, and he was easily cut off by Shen Gui like a chicken in front of everyone's eyes! Such a sea of blood feud for the loss of children in old age, even ordinary people cannot be indifferent, let alone the murderous Zhu Yuntao!
However, even if the revenge of killing a son is high and deep, it is not an overnight thing; In Xufu County alone, there are about 120 miles of mountain roads from Zhuhai Jianchi; Even Shen Gui and his entourage came here for two days; Speaking of Furong City, the capital of Bashu Road, there are still more than 500 miles away! Due to the steep terrain of Bashu and the rugged mountain roads, he wished Yuntao that it would take at least seven days just to get the report from Xufu County; After the governor ordered all the troops and horses, and then led the army to the Zhuhai Sword Pond for revenge, it would take about ten to fifteen days at the shortest.
So that is to say, it will take more than half a month before and after this back and forth alone, and this will have to be a rapid march of all of them day and night in exchange for the speed of marching. I'm afraid that even if I really rush to Zhuhai Sword Pond within a month, I won't even have a soldier who can stand firmly; If there is a heavy rain, landslide or other natural disaster on the way, it will be a month or two months......
Besides, even if he wished Yuntao a high position and was a feudal official who guarded the southwest of Northern Yan for Emperor Tianyou, he was just a courtier; No matter how ruthless his methods are and how angry his temper is, can he still beat the royal fan in his hand that has never been used at all?
However, Zuo Qiuliang, the 'bitter master', is obviously not as optimistic as Shen Gui!
First of all, the geographical environment of Xufu County is extremely complex, and there are many large and small tribes entrenched nearby, which is a chaotic area where many parties live together. Therefore, this small county of Syria has always been the choke point for the imperial army to clear the barbarians, and it has naturally become a front-line town where the army in the west of the town is stationed.
Now it is the end of winter and the beginning of spring, and the rations of various tribes are also in an embarrassing period of lack of green and yellow, and wars or frictions have always broken out, large or small. So now the governor of Bashu Dao, Zhu Yuntao, is still enjoying the blessings of the governor's mansion in Furong City, but no one can say for sure......
The Bashu Mountain Road has been a rugged and difficult mountain area since ancient times, and the same distance traveled is at least twice as long as that of the plains; This kind of common-sense question, does Shen Gui, a foreigner, need to remind the local natives? If it is really measured by the Shen Gui algorithm, then their Zhenxi Army will still suppress the barbarians and the border of Mao!
Therefore, Shen Gui's calculation of Zhu Yuntao's marching speed, although there was no problem on paper, he ignored a very important factor, that is, the common way in which Bashu Dao passed messages to each other......
In plain areas with well-developed roads, the official post stations along the way are naturally the first to transmit news; They relied on the way that the post guards and the stagecoaches alternated day and night, and the speed was naturally thousands of miles a day, and eight hundred at night; And in this mountainous area, where horses are almost useless, the most reliable and fast way to deliver information is another way......
Homing pigeon.
It is true that it takes a lot of effort and energy to train a pigeon to be a reliable 'herald', and at the same time it has the defects of not being able to carry weight and not being able to speak; But just the feeding price of a handful of grain is already a huge cost advantage that is absolutely incomparable to those who pay monthly salaries; The rugged and difficult mountain roads in the Bashu area are smooth roads for carrier pigeons; As for the inability to speak, although it may seem like a shortcoming; But for emergency military intelligence or 'trade secrets', it is its greatest advantage.
And although the Bashu region also belongs to the border area, it is as comfortable as a paradise on earth for carrier pigeons! Because it is not like the Mobei grassland and the western frontier, there are so many falcon trainers to raise falcons, and do those 'interception and killing carrier pigeons' for the armies or private organizations of all parties, so since ancient times, the Zhenxi army has always had the habit of raising and training a large number of carrier pigeons.
So next, Zuo Qiu Liang carefully snapped his fingers and taught Shen Gui a good lesson.
The disciples of Jianchi have been walking mountain roads for a long time, and they are extremely familiar with the terrain and landforms, so if they want to rush to Xufu County to report the news, it only takes one day to be enough; If the 'Zhenxi Pigeon Supervisor' of Xufu County accepted the two people's statement and sent a 'pigeon letter' at that time, then it would only take an hour and a half at most to arrive in Furong City!
From another point of view, if you join Zhu Yuntao, the governor of Bashu Dao, who happens to be in Xufu County at this time, preparing for a period of routine border operations, then the result will be even more terrifying! Because according to the time reported by Qi Yan, it was completely enough for Zhu Wentao to personally lead the army and arrive at the Zhuhai Sword Pond station......
Because from the time Shen Gui entered the Three Immortal Caves to the end when he explored the Three Treasures from the cave, a whole day had passed!
