After the gray-robed middle-aged man stabilized his figure, he raised his head in surprise, looked at Gai Yan, and blurted out: "Can you crack the illusion?" ”

The corners of Gaiyan's mouth were hooked, he opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, only to see that his tongue was stained with a mint leaf.

In the past, Liu Xiu used to prevent Jindan's illusion, and asked the soldiers to always have mint leaves in Sanfu.

It was from that time that Gaiyan always had to carry a packet of mint leaves with him, and he would take it out and chew it when he had anything to do, and the more he chewed, the more addictive he became.

Seeing the mint leaf in Gai Yan's mouth, the gray-robed middle-aged man immediately understood why the other party was able to see through his illusion.

At this time, the rain fell in the sky and became denser and denser, and the sound of crackling became louder and faster.

Gai Yan shrugged, the corners of his mouth hooked, and said, "Now, even God won't help you!" ”

One of the most important mediums for performing illusions is drugs.

Now that it is raining raining, the drugs in the air will naturally be carried away by the rain, and those who have been drugged will gradually be woken up by the rain.

The gray-robed middle-aged man stared at Gai Yan, unwillingly broke off and attacked with his sword.

If he was facing an ordinary general, he might be able to forcibly kill him, but now he was facing Gaiyan, who was a fierce general who charged into battle and won the three armies before he became a general.

Seeing the other party attack again with his sword, Gai Yan sneered, picked up the Glaive Knife, and swept forward.

The gray-robed middle-aged man's figure jumped up, and the blade of the Glaive swept under his feet, and the rain curtain was cut out by the edge of a long mirror.

The gray-robed middle-aged man was in the air, and he stabbed a sword at Gai Yan's face.

Gai Yan dodged sideways, the gray-robed middle-aged man stabbed the air with a sword, and his body fell in the air, he took advantage of the situation with a sword, and slashed the top of Gai Yan's head.

Gaiyan retracts the knife and blocks upwards.

When! The blade of the sword slashed at the blade, the Gaiyan pattern on the war horse did not move, and the gray-robed middle-aged man was affected by the force of the shock, and his body flew backwards.

Gai Yan didn't think about it, he held the knife in one hand, and pulled out the saber under his ribs with the other, and waved his arm outward, the saber swirled in the air, and flew straight to the middle-aged man's chest.

The gray-robed middle-aged man couldn't help but scream, his feet hadn't hit the ground yet, and he hurriedly picked out a sword.

When! The sword that flew sideways was bounced into the air, and the gray-robed middle-aged man who landed on the ground leaned back, stammering several steps back.

Gaiyan urged the horse forward, and the sound of the horse's hooves was quick and heavy, and the rain on the ground was splashed in a clump.

Airplanes! When the horse arrived, the knife also arrived, and the blade cut through the rain curtain and went straight to the waist of the gray-robed middle-aged man.

It's so fast, so fast that the gray-robed middle-aged man is about to lose sight of the blade's trajectory.

Unable to dodge or block, he fell backwards and rolled out, narrowly avoiding Gaiyan's Glaive.

After the gray-robed middle-aged man jumped up from the ground, his eyes were full of horror and jealousy when he looked at Gai Yan.

He didn't expect that Gai Yan's martial arts were so good, and compared to Gai Yan, it was completely different.

In fact, this is very understandable, Lai Xi is a civilian official, and Gai Yan is a real military attaché, before he followed Liu Xiu, he was already a general guarding the border pass, and he had been fighting with barbarians for many years.

After following Liu Xiu, Gai Yan fought countless battles, and his martial arts were basically honed from the battlefield, there were no fancy styles, and the swords and knives were all deadly moves.

The gray-robed middle-aged man was embarrassed, but Gai Yan was unforgiving, urging the horse to chase and kill, one knife after another, one knife was faster than another, and the knives were all aimed at the key points of the gray-robed middle-aged man.

The two fought for more than ten rounds, and the middle-aged man in the gray robe was already in danger, and he was not expected to win, so the middle-aged man in the gray robe made a false move, turned around and ran.

How could Gaiyan let him go, urging the horse to chase after him.

The gray-robed middle-aged man ran all the way east, and Gai Yan chased after him.

The two legs of the gray-robed middle-aged man are no match for the four legs of a war horse after all.

The distance between the two sides is getting closer.

Seeing that Gai Yan was about to chase after the gray-robed middle-aged man's close body, without warning, the gray-robed middle-aged man turned back violently, handed over his sword to his left hand, and waved his right arm outward, crackling, and three crossbow arrows flew out from his cuffs.

Three crossbow arrows, in the shape of a zigzag, attacked Gaiyan's face and left and right chests, the distance between the two was too close, and the speed of the crossbow arrows was too fast, and they shot to Gaiyan's front at once.

Gaiyan leaned back, rolling to the side.

The gray-robed middle-aged man who was close at hand didn't see clearly whether Gai Yan had rolled off the war horse, and when he stopped to check, Gai Yan, who was hanging on the side of the war horse, sat back on the horse from the side of the war horse.

He snorted coldly and said, "What can I do with small means?" ”

The gray-robed middle-aged man was shocked, but he didn't expect that his trump card failed to hurt Gai Yan in the slightest.

The crossbow arrows hidden in his cuffs are from Du Ling's hand, and the three arrows are fired together, which is unguardable, and the arrows are quenched with poison, and the throat is sealed with blood.

But such a powerful secret weapon, in front of Gai Yan, is like a small skill of carving insects.

At this time, the gray-robed middle-aged man was deeply aware that he was too light on the enemy.

It was too easy for him to assassinate Lai She, thinking that assassinating Gai Yan would be no problem, but in fact, it was not the case at all, Gai Yan's skills, even if he were placed in the rivers and lakes, he was also a first-class master.

The gray-robed middle-aged man didn't dare to fight, turned around and ran again, and then ran forward, and there was a turbulent river in front of him.

The gray-robed middle-aged man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he used his strength to eat milk and ran straight to the river in front of him.

When he came to the river, he looked back and saw that Gaiyan was still a few feet away from him, he laughed, took a deep breath, and plunged into the river.

At the moment when he jumped into the river, Gaiyan's arm was full of strength, and he threw the glaive out with one hand.

Whoosh - the long glaive knife, swirling, swept through the sky, cut through the rain, and when it reached the river, the head of the knife rushed down and smashed down.

Burst! The glaive was nailed deep into the river, leaving only one tail on the surface of the river.

Whether his knife stabbed the assassin or injured the assassin, Gaiyan didn't know the bottom of his heart, and the flying knife he threw was completely based on feeling.

Soon, the sound of horses' hooves was heard behind him, and more than a dozen personal guards chased after him, and when they saw Gaiyan standing by the river, they all said, "General, did the assassin run away?" ”

Gai stretched out his hand, pointed to the tail of the knife on the river, and said, "I don't know if my knife hurt him!" ”

All the guards looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a small section of the tail of the knife on the surface of the river, and they were all stunned, and soon, two guards turned over and dismounted, took off their armor and boots, and jumped into the river shirtless.

The two of them dived to the bottom for a short time, one of them laboriously dragging Gaiyan's Glaive to the shore, followed by another soldier dragging a corpse ashore.

Gaiyan and the others around him looked at the gray-robed middle-aged man who was trying to escape.

In the center of the corpse's back, there was also a long knife cut, and it was obvious that the knife that Gaiyan had just thrown was right in his back.

Seeing this, everyone present invariably showed joy, and one of the soldiers asked, "General, could this thief be the assassin who assassinated the general?" ”

In this regard, Gaiyan couldn't judge either.

Without waiting for Gaiyan to speak, another pro-soldier said, "I think nine times out of ten!" The assassin who ambushed us would not use illusions, but this thief could use illusions, and the thief who assassinated the general should be him! ”

Gaiyan asked, "What about the other Assassins?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of cavalry ran up from behind, and at the same time, several corpses were dragged over.

"General, three assassins ran away, and four people were ambushed!"

Gai Yan glanced at the corpse for a few words, didn't say anything more, and ordered: "Find the boatman, cross the river!" ”

The torrential rain came and went as fast as it came, and by the time Gaiyan and his party found the boat and began to cross the river, the torrential rain also stopped, but the sky was still gloomy and cloudy.

In the morning, Gaiyan and his party finally arrived at the camp of the incoming army.

Seeing that Gai Yan had arrived, the panicked soldiers in the barracks seemed to have found the backbone, and everyone greeted Gai Yan one after another, their eyes were red, and they choked up and said: "The general is here, come to the general...... He ......" Gaiyan asked in a deep voice, "How is the general now?" ”

"The doctors were helpless and could only ...... I can only breathe a sigh of relief......" Speaking of this, all the generals and officials began to cry.

Recently, the Western Expeditionary Army didn't know what bad luck it was, first the main general Feng Yi died of illness, and finally got a suitable new master in the future, and now he is more auspicious and less lucky, and his life is on the line.

Gaiyan didn't ask any more questions, he pointed back at the corpses behind him and asked, "Go and see, there are no assassins among those corpses!" ”

He didn't stop, and strode towards the sleeping tent.

As he was walking, he heard a noise from behind, and someone screamed, "It's him!" He's the assassin of the general! God has eyes, let the assassin ambush him, woo-" Gaiyan heard the cry behind him, and his body paused slightly, and then quickened his pace.

When I came to Laishe's sleeping tent, there were a lot of soldiers of the Western Expeditionary Army gathered outside, and there were many medical officers inside.

Seeing Gaiyan, the soldiers present bowed down one after another, and choked up with a crying voice: "General! ”

Gaiyan walked quickly to the bed, looking at the lying on the bed, already dying, and with a sharp blade in his chest, Gaiyan's heart was crumbled.

His nose was sore, his eyes were red, he puffed, knelt down beside the bed, and said in a trembling voice: "Come to the general?

Come to the general, I'm here to see you! ”

As he spoke, Gayen's tears fell.

Geng Yi and Laishe do not agree with the concept, but Gai Yan admires Laishe very much, and in Gai Yan's heart, Laishe is a typical late bloomer.

The old man has been unknown all his life, and he can only emerge in his later years, perhaps it is really a relationship of accumulation, in the battle of Pinglong, Lai She's performance is dazzling, and he can be called one of the most shining generals.

With his eyes closed, he seemed to hear Gaiyan's words, and he slowly lifted his eyes, his gaze turning, and fell on Gaiyan's face.

After looking at it for a while, his eyes became focused, and he confirmed that the person next to him was Gai Yan, and the old man said in a weak voice: "General Gai is here, I'm ...... You can always rest assured......" As he spoke, he slowly raised his hand.

Gai Yan hurriedly held Lai She's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Come to the general......" "All the soldiers, ...... All brought back to Luoyang safely and worshiped ...... Please, let the soldiers return to Luoyang safely......" "Uh-huh......" Gai Yan clenched Laixi's hand, couldn't control his emotions anymore, burst into tears, and bowed his head and cried bitterly.

Gaiyan's cry made Lai Xi frown slightly, and the old man complained intermittently: "Men don't flick when they have tears...... The dignified general, crying and crying, what kind of system has it become...... I asked the general to come to the army, not to let the general come to mourn for me, but to entrust the whole army to the general......" "I know ......" Gai Yan nodded again and again.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, entrust the ministers with heavy responsibilities, the ministers are incompetent, and fail to complete Your Majesty's entrustment, this is a sin of She......" Speaking of this, tears flowed from the corners of Lai She's eyes, and he held Gaiyan's hand tighter, and said in a trembling voice: "General, dang, when you take on a heavy responsibility, on your behalf...... Brother Dai She, a general, brought back to Luoyang and delivered to His Majesty ......"
