Chapter 5: Killing People and Saving People
Wang Jiaotou saw that his companion was shot, only stunned for a moment, and then reacted, he grabbed the spear and iron helmet on the railing of the pavilion, dodged and hid behind a wooden pillar in the pavilion, put on the iron helmet at a very fast speed, raised one hand, covered the front with the iron armor on his arm, held the spear in the other, clamped the tail grab under his armpit, roared and rushed straight into the garden, stepped on the ground full of broken flowers, and rushed towards the back door of the hall where the crossbow bolt was fired.
After shooting the crossbow arrow, Chen Xian was also stunned for a moment, pulling the trigger just now was completely subconscious, watching the head of the Liu Jiao fall, he realized that he had killed someone.
However, he was soon awakened by Wang Jiaotou's roar, hurriedly bent down and stepped on the pedal of the front end of the big black eagle, quickly opened the bow and hung the string, and pulled out a crossbow arrow from the quiver behind his back and loaded it in the arrow slot.
Chen Xian once seriously practiced quickly winding the crossbow and loading arrows, saying that it was to deal with the unexpected situations that occurred in the bow hunting, in fact, it was more to satisfy his personal hobbies, he liked to study and ponder the use of cold weapons in various actual combat situations, and he was never tired of it.
This time Chen Xian no longer hesitated, nor did he dare to hesitate, he raised his hand and pulled the crossbow machine, the bow and crossbow made by modern technology were not inferior to firearms at close range, the crossbow accurately grazed the upper side of the iron armor of Wang Jiao's left arm to protect his face, and fiercely nailed into his left eyebrow, the powerful and sharp crossbow bolt penetrated his skull, pierced his brain, and instantly drained his strength, making him fall like a piece of wood in front of the stone steps at the back door of the hall.
Chen Xian looked at Wang Jiaotou who was lying motionless on the ground through the broken flower window, and watched the blood stains under him gradually expand, first breathing a sigh of relief, and then inhaling a breath of cool air.
A thought that made his scalp tingle churned in his mind, "I killed someone!" ”
The situation was critical just now, and he couldn't afford to think, but when he calmed down, he felt afraid and ridiculous.
Maybe it's because he has seen too many dead people just now, Chen Xian doesn't seem to be as scared as he thought, in addition to panic and fear in his heart, for some reason there is a slight excitement!
Looking at the pavilion on the opposite side of the garden, the woman and the two boys hugged each other and trembled, Chen Xian thought about it, bent down again to step on the crossbow, and after rewinding, he picked up the long stick, set up the big black eagle with his left arm, and walked out of the back door of the hall.
Chen Xian drove the crossbow, looked cautiously as he walked, and walked towards the mother and son opposite.
When he got closer, he found that the mother and son on the other side were looking at him with terrified eyes.
Chen Xian suddenly realized that he was wearing a black iron armor (every piece of this iron armor has been blackened and oxidized and rust-proof), wearing the same jet-black helmet, and the movable visor covered his face, except for a pair of eyes, almost no skin was missing.
I think it's cool to look in the mirror like this, but in the eyes of this mother and son who have just suffered a great disaster, I'm afraid it's not like a ghost.
He hurriedly comforted: "It's okay, I won't hurt you, you're safe." He didn't want to frighten the mother and son, he also needed to know his current situation from the mouths of the three.
Listening to his words, the woman was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't understand, but listening to his kind voice, she didn't seem to be so afraid.
Chen Xian waved his hand to the two of them again and said, "Come with me, get out of here quickly." ”
I don't know if the woman understood, she hugged the two children at a loss, and she didn't dare to look at Chen Xian.
Chen Xian could only slow down his speech and persuade patiently: "These two sect leaders can return, and the other rebels can also return, you better get out of here quickly, if you have a place to go, I can give you a ride." ”
This time, the woman seemed to understand Chen Xian's words, and finally reacted, she let go of the child, blessed Chen Xian, and said: "If the strong man can send our mother and son to the Lu Mountain, the East Zhuangzi of the source of Yishui, the Yang family members in the Zhuangzi will be thanked." ”
Chen Xian replied: "Okay, I have nowhere to go anyway, so it doesn't hurt to give you a ride." ”
Seeing the woman nodding, Chen Xian turned around and walked towards the back door of the hall, and the woman called him: "Strong man, this garden has a back door, we can leave through the back door." ”
Chen Xian nodded when he heard this, and he was about to turn around, when he suddenly saw the spear under the dead Wang Jiaotou, and his heart moved.
Chen Xian looked at the long stick in his hand, and then looked at the spear under Wang Jiaotou's body, and after a little hesitation, he stepped forward and pulled away Wang Jiaotou's body, and reached out to pick up the spear.
The way he pulled away the corpse seemed to have completely stepped out of the shadow of murder.
Speaking of which, although Chen Xian has never shot anyone, rabbits, pheasants, muntjacs, and badgers ...... He's shot hundreds of these wild creatures.
Chen Xian never told anyone that when he shot his prey, he felt a strange pleasure in his heart, which was both the joy of conquest and the excitement of satisfying a certain desire for destruction.
This may be the reason why he was able to get out of the fear of killing so quickly.
……
The shaft of Wang Jiaotou's spear is straight, and it is tough in his hand, it is obviously made of fine workmanship, and the head of the spear is exquisitely crafted, and the cold light is shining, which is obviously a good gun.
The total length of this gun is about three meters, if it is an ordinary person, it must be considered a long gun, but in Chen Xian's eyes, it is actually a short gun.
In "Arm Record", Wu Zhen divided the robbery into three types: short guns, long guns, and poles.
The short gun is less than a zhang, that is, more than three meters (the clear ruler is about equivalent to more than three feet and three inches now), and the use of the short gun mainly relies on the wrist and arm, so the short gun is the most flexible, and it can also show the subtlety of marksmanship.
The pole is more than two feet long, that is, more than six meters, and it cannot be used by relying on both hands, and can only rely on running and moving to control the spear, so the key to the pole is a pair of legs.
The long spear is four feet long, that is, about four meters and five, this kind of gun has the advantages of both a pole and a short gun, which not only occupies the advantages of an inch long and an inch strong, but also can take into account a certain flexibility.
However, Wu Zhen believes that although the spear has obvious advantages and powerful power, but for marksmanship, it cannot fully play the subtlety, and the skills are relatively rough, and those who practice guns know that the longer the gun, the more difficult it is to block, and from this point of view, the long gun is not as good as the short gun. However, he also believed that the spear was more suitable for the battlefield where the two armies faced each other.
According to the classification of the modern martial arts world, a spear of more than three meters can be regarded as a big gun, and the length of the normal martial arts gun should be the user standing up straight and raising his arm, and the distance from his feet to his fingertips is between two meters and two meters two or three.
The reason for this change is probably related to the fact that after the rise of hot weapons, martial arts gradually separated from the army, became Jianghu, and became performative.
The short spear of more than two meters is also called the flower gun, and the dancing spear is full of flowers, which is very good-looking.
……
Although Wu Zhen thought that the short spear was exquisite, Chen Xian still practiced the use of the long spear seriously, because what he longed for was the bloody battlefield of ancient cold weapons.
According to the arm record, first practice the short spear, and then practice the pole, and after the two are practiced, the long spear is easy to master.
Chen Xian practiced the poking method according to this procedure, so it was not a problem for him to use a short gun.
Putting the big black eagle at his feet, Chen Xian first wiped the blood on the body of the gun with Wang Jiaotou's robe, picked up the short gun and shook it gently, and was immediately very satisfied, this is a good gun.
After trying the gun, Chen Xian looked at the pale green burqa on Wang Jiaotou's body again, it was because of the existence of this burqa that Chen Xian ignored the fact that these two people were wearing armor at first,
He looked at the black armor on his body that had been treated with oxidation, blackening and rust prevention, and felt that it was too conspicuous, so after thinking about it, he reached out and untied the robe on Wang Jiaotou's body, and put it on himself regardless of the blood.
After putting on the burqa, Chen Xian walked up to the mother and son with a big black eagle in one hand and a short gun in the other, and motioned for them to lead the way.
When the mother saw Chen Xian pick up Wang Jiaotou's gun, she also picked up Liu Jiaotou's wooden stick with an iron hoop at both ends, the wooden stick was about two meters long, the thickness of the egg, and the two ends were wrapped with iron, which was also a murder weapon.
The mother and son took Chen Xian into the bamboo forest, spared a few laps in the bamboo forest, and came to a courtyard wall.
There is a large gate on the courtyard wall, and the lock on the gate has been broken.
Chen Xian followed the woman out of the gate, and he was surprised to find that outside the door was not outside the courtyard, but a sandwich road, which was about four meters wide and sandwiched between two high walls.
The woman took Chen Xian and walked along the mezzanine for more than ten meters, turned a corner, and walked for more than ten meters before coming to another gate.
The gate was also bolted and left wide open, facing one of the main streets of the village.
Thinking that the passage between these two walls should be used to defend against troops, but unfortunately it didn't seem to play much role in the previous battle.
Leaving the courtyard, the four of them went straight down the street to the west gate of the village, which was wide open.
The four of them walked out of the village, and the woman looked back at the village deeply, and then pulled the two boys to follow closely behind Chen Xian.
They followed a path outside the west gate for three or four miles, and entered the woods.
After going deep into the woods, Chen Xian breathed a sigh of relief, he felt that he should be safe at this time, so he took off his helmet.
After the woman looked at Chen Xian's face, she seemed to be slightly relieved.
Chen Xian is not very handsome, but he doesn't look like a bad guy no matter how he looks at it, as for Chen Xian's flat head, it just makes women think that he is a monk from You Fang.
Taking off the helmet and relaxing the atmosphere, Chen Xian tried to communicate with the woman, "Where is the source of Yishui you are talking about?" ”
The woman pointed to the southeast and said: "There is a path in this mountain that leads to the source of Yishui, and the source of Yishui is in the depths of Lushan, and there is a flat dam surrounded by mountains, which belongs to Laiwu County, Tai'an. ”
Looking at the direction the woman was pointing and listening to her description, Chen Xian probably knew where she was talking about, and she should be talking about Yiyuan County.
Yiyuan County is a county set up after the liberation, is a mountain plain located in the depths of the Lushan Mountains, relatively close to Laiwu, Chen Xian's best roommate is Yiyuan, he once spent a summer vacation there.
The area between Yiyuan and Linqu is full of mountains, and it is very difficult to walk, but the straight-line distance is not far, thirty or forty kilometers.
After talking, Chen Xian began to talk to the woman, perhaps to hide the fear in her heart, and the woman was also willing to talk to Chen Xian.
