Volume 1 The Beginning of the Warring States Chapter 016 A Husband is a Pass
Under Lu Yu's explanation, Ximen Hou ordered the warriors to "process" the cut bamboo section again, sharpen one end of the bamboo, and insert it irregularly upside down on the road according to Lu Yu's meaning. It took more than half an hour, and all the samurai were tired and sweaty, and they saw that the road surface was more than ten meters long and full of crooked and slanted bamboos, as if an abstract painting had been drawn on the ground.
Lu Yuzheng admired this finished product with satisfaction, and Ximen Hou couldn't help but praise: "Brother Lu is really very human, if he is someone else, he will generally only choose to flee for his life as soon as possible, where will Brother Lu have the same intention to set a trap for the enemy." ”
Wei Mingji's face also showed admiration, and she couldn't help but praise: "Lu Ye is resourceful, I believe that my father and Xinling Jun will appreciate you very much." ”
A hint of jealousy flashed on Ximenhou's face.
How could Lu Yu not see it? At the moment, I just didn't see it, but laughed and said: "Due to the large number of bandits, crossing the water is not as fast as ours, so we can set up a sharp bamboo array here, which can block them for a while." Even cleaning up takes some time, which is enough for us to get some more distance from them. ”
Ximen Hou asked: "Brother Lu asked about the terrain when he crossed the water just now, do you want to use the topography of the Burial Dragon Slope to control the low with the high, and now we have to climb the Burial Dragon Slope and wait for the arrival of those bandits?" ”
Lu Yu looked at the burial Longpo, smiled on his face, and said to Ximen: "Now please ask Mr. Ximen to leave immediately and lead you to escort the princess to Xiangling." ”
When Ximen Hou and Wei Mingji heard this, their faces changed greatly. Wei Mingji hurriedly said: "Lu Ye is alone, how can he resist three hundred bandits?" ”
Ximen Hou also said: "Brother Lu must not be reckless, even if you join forces with Brother Lu to fight against him, there is no full chance of winning, Brother Lu still walks with us!" ”
Lu Yu smiled and said, "Please rest assured, princess and Mr. Simon." The younger brother originally planned to plot against the bandits on the Burial Dragon Slope with you, but the soil here is loose, and he feels that it is too risky, and there is no full chance of victory. Now that the younger brother has other plans, Mr. Simon, please believe the younger brother, the princess is a golden and jade body, and it cannot be used as a bet, please give the order to set off immediately! ”
Wei Mingji said coquettishly: "If Lu Yu can say the reason why you can convince this princess that you can retreat with your whole body, this princess will immediately go to Xiangling with Mr. Ximen." ”
Lu Yu said: "Princess, please believe that you are alone, you are not as conspicuous as our entire team, as long as you delay for a while, the little brother will try to get out, princess, please leave immediately." ”
Ximen Hou said: "Since Brother Lu is so resolute, please be careful." Although the Bamboo Formation can stop the horses, it can't stop the bow and arrow. ”
Lu Yu arched his hand and said, "Thank you Mr. Simon for reminding me." ”
Ximen Hou gave an order, although the warriors didn't understand why Lu Yu wanted to stay alone, but Ximen Hou had already given an order, and it was their duty to escort the princess back to Wei, Lu Yu's courage had left a deep impression in their hearts, and several samurai still turned their heads to Lu Yu with admiration on the horse.
Simon was the last to get on his horse. As if thinking of something, he turned back to Lu Yu and said, "Brother Lu, please rest assured, once we meet with our men and horses, I, Ximen Hou, will definitely personally lead troops to relieve the siege." Please take care, Brother Lu! ”
Lu Yu bowed his hand to show his gratitude.
Everyone finally disappeared from Lu Yu's line of sight. This is the first time Lu Yu has been alone since coming out of Majiagou. Before, he was always worried that he didn't know these ancient roads, and he was afraid that he wouldn't find Qin Shi Huang, but now he took the initiative to ask Ying to ask someone to stay, and he would still face hundreds of fierce bandits, this was the first time in his life, and suddenly he didn't know if he was doing right or wrong.
Finding that there was a big boulder on the side of the road, just enough to hide himself, Lu Yu held the iron sword that named him Po Jun, sat down with his back against the boulder, thinking that it would be good if he could smoke a cigarette to relieve the nervousness that he was starting to feel a little nervous.
Time passed minute by minute, with the sound of horses' hooves from far to near, although he knew that the other party only had more than 300 horses, but at this moment, Lu Yu's heart was as shocked as a galloping horse, because what he was about to face was a group of ancient underworld gangsters. Although this is the era of cold weapons, no matter how agile Lu Yu is, bows and arrows are deadly weapons, so he has to beware that the other party will play a hundred arrows for him at any time and shoot him into a hedgehog. Fortunately, there is a big rock behind him to cover, otherwise I would really have to climb to the top of the burial dragon slope to hide.
Suddenly, Lu Yu felt that his ears were extremely clear, and the sound of the hundreds of horses running seemed to be in his ears, and even made him feel that the ground was shaking.
Sure enough, these people all came to the burial of Longpo. Lu Yu heard the cry of Le Ma, obviously those people found the sharp bamboo array on the road, and there were constantly scolding.
Lu Yu chanted "God bless" in his heart, turned around, and emerged from behind the boulder.
The opposite side was really dark, and although he was already mentally prepared, Lu Yu still startled the other party's centaurs. I saw a group of people led by a big man with thick eyebrows, except for a few who were dressed in good shape, the rest were all in tattered clothes, holding iron swords in their hands, or holding plate axes, or big knives, and there were really people with bows and arrows on their backs, all of them were fierce and vicious, and Lu Yu stared at each other from a distance across the sharp bamboo array in the middle.
The other party didn't know who Lu Yu was standing opposite, only to see that he was alone, facing more than 300 people on his side, his face did not change, and he seemed to want to block his way forward with the power of one person, although he felt a little ridiculous, but he also admired his courage.
The thick-eyed man was puzzled in his heart, raised the big knife in his hand and pointed at Lu Yu, and asked in his thick and rough voice, "Who are you?" ”
Lu Yu took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Guess? ”
The thick-eyebrowed man showed anger on his face, showing that no one dared to smile so much at him, but because he didn't know Lu Yu's details, he could only temporarily suppress the anger in his heart and asked again: "Are these sharp bamboos on the road made by you?" ”
Lu Yu smiled: "Exactly." ”
The three hundred thieves suddenly exploded, and the sound of swords and angry scolding continued.
The thick-eyed man seemed to think of something, and asked again: "What is the relationship between those Wei people and you?" ”
Lu Yu shrugged his shoulders and replied, "It can be said that it doesn't matter. ”
The thick-eyebrowed man stretched his face and said coldly, "Then why are you blocking my way?" ”
Lu Yu had a rogue expression, and replied in a strange voice: "Uncle, I'm happy." ”
The thick-eyed man opened his eyes angrily, but he put away his big knife, signaled everyone to be quiet, signaled to all the thieves to be quiet, gritted his teeth and asked, "Please ask for your name!" ”
Lu Yu smiled again, put the unsheathed broken army sword on his shoulder, took three steps forward, and said, "Then what is your name!" ”
More than 300 people on the other side were very angry at Lu Yu's behavior of ignoring his boss, and those with knives and axes directly beat on the ground, constantly shouting in their mouths, and the cries of "let the horse come" and "I don't know whether to live or die" were constantly screaming.
The thick-eyebrow man drank the thieves, sneered, raised his voice and said to Lu Yu: "Okay, you kid who doesn't know life or death, I've never met such an arrogant person who dares to block my way." Leave your name, if you don't die today, he will come to the door again tomorrow! ”
Lu Yu looked up to the sky and smiled, and the laughter echoed among the mountain paths, which made the other three hundred people, including Na Chengli, feel a creepy feeling for a while. After laughing, Lu Yu also learned from Cheng Li and raised his voice, and said loudly: "Cheng Li Xiaoer, you can remember clearly!" Your grandfather and I will not change his name, he will not change his surname, and his surname Lu Mingyu is also! If you can bury Longpo today, grandpa will invite you to tea another day! ”
Cheng Li was furious, and shouted in his mouth: "Give me arrows!" As soon as the words fell, dozens of people behind him rushed to the front and knelt on one knee, and at the same time raised the big bow in their hands.
Lu Yu's heart was not good, and he hurriedly retreated behind the boulder, and suddenly the sound of "whoosh" strong wind continued, some shot on the boulder, and were immediately bounced away by the hard boulder, and some shot on the ground at Lu Yu's feet, and the arrow sank into the ground. Lu Yu couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat, fortunately there was this big stone blocking it, otherwise there would be nowhere to hide in this mountain path, and I am afraid that I would really shoot the other party's arrow into a hedgehog.
I thought that these bandits were really stupid and wasteful, knowing that they would not be able to shoot themselves by throwing arrows indiscriminately like this, but they desperately threw them indiscriminately, as if these arrows did not cost money.
Under Cheng Li's order, a round of arrow rain finally stopped. began to order people to remove the sharp bamboos on the ground, and some people began to use the method of agitation to let Lu Yu out, what kind of hiding and hiding is a hero.
Lu Yu leaned his back against the boulder and said loudly: "Chengli Xiaoer, Grandpa Lu originally thought you were a good man!" If you bring the seeds, come over and talk to your grandfather a few tricks, take these hundreds of thieves, and you are releasing arrows and talking with your mouth, what do you get? ”
I thought in my heart that I was not saying with my mouth, if there was no sharp bamboo array, even if Cheng Li fought against him alone, it might not be much better.
Cheng Li really hit the plan, and said to his subordinates: "Clear the sharp bamboo on the ground, no helpers are allowed, and I, Cheng Li, will kill this Lu Yu and go home to find my mother!" Then he laughed with the thieves.
Lu Yu didn't laugh angrily, and said loudly: "You can live this burial Longpo and brag again!" Using the burial of Longpo to bury you Cheng Li, a brazen thief, is really exalting you! ”
Cheng Li shouted angrily: "Lu Yu! Today, I will not take your dog's life, and it is really difficult to explain to my brothers! Whoever you have sown will remain where you are, and will not flee, until my brother clears a way for me, and he will eat thy flesh and drink thy blood. ”
Lu Yuxin said that if you tell me not to escape, I will not run away, so I am not a stupid person?
At this time, a fist-sized stone rolled from the burial dragon slope to Lu Yu's feet. Then, there was a rustling sound from above.
Lu Yu knew that the time had finally come, turned around, stood up from behind the boulder, faced Cheng Li, and said loudly: "Cheng Li!" Today's burial in Longpo is your burial place! Then he lifted his breath from the dantian and smiled.
Hundreds of people on Chengli's side were laughed incomprehensibly by Lu Yu for a while, thinking that his rescuers were coming, and they hurriedly looked around, but they didn't see anything unusual, not to mention the rescuers, even a bird was gone, why did Lu Yu face the Jianzhu array that was being cleaned up, but he still had no fear, could it be that this person was really very capable, and he thought that he could resist the more than 300 people on his side with the strength of one person?
Lu Yu laughed, seeing that the other party was stunned and staring at him, even the few bandits who were clearing the sharp bamboo on the ground had forgotten what they were doing, and laughed again.
Suddenly, a few small pebbles rolled down overhead and fell into the mountain path.
At this time, hundreds of people on the opposite side also seemed to have noticed abnormal movements on the mountain, and some people began to look up at the mountain walls on both sides.
The huge strange rocks on the slope of the burial dragon, like sleeping evil spirits, have hideous faces and grinning teeth, as if they want to eat the people who wake them up at the bottom of the mountain. Lu Yu's constant laughter drifted between this deep valley, layer by layer, as if there were several people making the same laugh at the same time, and hundreds of people on the other side were all shocked.
An older bandit said to Cheng Li in a trembling voice, "Big... Big brother, look at this kid, is it the incarnation of the dragon..."
Cheng Li sat on the horseback, and directly kicked the old man a few meters away with his foot, and scolded: "Don't come to confuse the crowd!" Where are there so many ghosts and gods in the world? Then he turned to the archer and said, "Shoot the arrows!" Hurry up and release the arrows! Shoot that Lu Yu to me! ”
Without waiting for the archers to take the arrows, Lu Yu dodged behind the boulder and laughed: "Cheng Li, are you afraid?" I advise you to go and be afraid again when you get to the underworld! ”
At this time, the sand and stones above the head spread like rain, and the fairy scattered flowers. At the same time, the horses under the opponent's crotch were frightened and began to desperately try to break free from the reins, and the bandits could not control the scurrying horses, and they were already in chaos. I only heard a loud noise, a boulder more than half a person high, rolled down the slope like a meteor, and a few bandits in the rear didn't have time to dodge, and even the people and horses were deeply embedded in the ground by the boulder, and they didn't even have time to snort miserably. Before that, the large and small stones and sand on the burial dragon slope were completely uncontrolled, accompanied by a deafening sound, accompanied by the exclamations of hundreds of people, constantly smashing into the mountain path, as if to use a heavy rain of sand and gravel to pave the entire road.
The other party couldn't control the frightened horse, and for a time rushed to the burial dragon slope, due to the loose geology on the slope, and was pulled by the bandits, the horse couldn't go up at all, many people were thrown off the horse's back, and some people fell directly into the uncleaned bamboo array, and the bamboo pierced through the body, and was killed on the spot.
Lu Yuxin said that if he didn't run away, he would accompany these bandits to die here. At that moment, he ran with his legs, paying attention to the direction in which the rocks were rolling, and at the same time, he used his strength on his legs and rushed forward desperately. Rao is like this, his body is still hurt from time to time by the sand and small stones that fall from the sky, and his shoulders and arms are even more colorful. Lu Yu was afraid of being hit in the head, so he was busy protecting it with both hands, and he couldn't care about the pain in his body, he just wished that he couldn't give birth to a few more legs so that he could run faster.
The angry scolding of Cheng Li in the back became farther and farther away, and the sand and stones that fell down stirred up a cloud of dust, making the path of hundreds of meters extend indefinitely, and the whole deep valley shook the mountains, like being at the scene of a high earthquake, and could be swallowed up at any time.
If it is said that being hunted down and killed in Chen County is an extremely dangerous experience after Lu Yu came to the ancient times, then the danger index at this moment is more like turning on the hell mode.
Originally, he asked Ximen Hou about the highlands, originally wanted to use the highlands to attack these hundreds of thieves with bows and arrows or stones, but after coming to the burial dragon slope, Lu Yu found that the geology here was loose, and when Ximen Hou talked about that ancient myth, what "Nuwa sent a god general to lead the dragon here, and shouted loudly, and the mountain god smashed all the stones on the mountain", if it is true, it means that this place is extremely dangerous, and speaking loudly may cause landslides. I remembered that I had watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" before, which told that Cao Cao raised troops to conquer Liu Bei, and when the soldiers chased him to Changsaka Bridge, Zhang Fei immediately raised his spear at Changsaka Bridge and shouted to the pursuers: "Zhang Yide is here, who dares to come to fight to the death?" The shouting continued, and the bridge was broken, causing Cao Jun to flee in fear.
What does all this mean? Zhang Fei broke the Nagasaki Bridge, although it was made up by the author, but it illustrated a scientific principle called "resonance". The world-famous tenor Pavarotti once broke a goblet when he sang a high note at a dinner party. In fact, it was just that the frequency of the high note produced by the singer happened to be very close to the natural frequency of the goblet, causing the goblet to shatter due to resonance. The principle of "resonance" also appeared in the mythology of Ximen Hou, but the ancients did not understand it, so they thought that it was a landslide caused by the power of gods and ghosts.
I thought that if I stayed with Ximen Hou to deal with this group of bandits, after all, there were only a dozen people, and the bows and arrows were limited, so if a landslide suddenly occurred on the slope of the burial dragon, then I might have to die with these bandits, and it was possible to let half of these three hundred bandits escape. It is better to let Ximen Hou quickly go to move the rescue troops, stay alone, first lead the bandits to the front of the Jianzhu Formation, and then use the power of nature to use sound wave resonance to break the balance of the burial dragon slope and kill him by surprise. In this case, although he puts himself in danger, he can delay for a long time without spending a single soldier, even if he cannot kill all the three hundred bandits, as long as he is more careful and beware of losing his life.
But Lu Yu still underestimated the power of nature.
Lu Yu didn't know when the landslide would stop, and in this kind of force majeure disaster, he could only dodge in embarrassment, and under the chain reaction, the rocks on the mountain wall in front of him also collapsed. While Lu Yu fled desperately, he prayed in his heart not to block the road in front of him, otherwise he would really die here.
At this time, he seemed to hear a dragon groan.
The hundreds of meters of mountain trails actually tired him like running a marathon for dozens of kilometers. I don't know how long it took for Lu Yu's physical strength to finally run out in the extremely fast sprint, only to find that there was no sand and gravel on his body, and the landslide had stopped, but the road before and after had been cut off by falling rocks. His eardrums were buzzing with the rockfall that had shaken the earth just now, and at last his legs went limp, as heavy as lead, and he could no longer lift them, and collapsed to the ground. At this time, I only felt that it was difficult to breathe, the wings of my nose were very uncomfortable, my chest was stuffy, the amplitude of expansion was not enough to inhale the amount of air I could inhale at one time, and my eyes were black, my lips and throat were uncomfortably dry, and my clothes were all stuck to my body. At this time, he just wanted to plunge into the water, he didn't even want to take off his clothes, he drank water while soaking, and he didn't want to move again.
I looked at myself, my arms, shoulders, and legs were all covered with paint, and even my back hurt, and the samurai suit I was wearing was already tattered, and I raised my hand slightly to sweep my hair, and the dust was like rain. Lu Yu found that his hair was already very long, and he could almost tie it up like these ancient people. And even the stubble is dense, if you look in a mirror, you will definitely find that you have become a big scumbag.
If you can find a water source nearby, you must use the broken sword to shave your face after you have drunk enough, otherwise you will always feel sloppy and sloppy with a sloppy face.
Now it is outside the burial dragon slope, but it still has not yet walked out of this valley, the road ahead has been cut off, and there is no way to go back. I don't know if Cheng Li and the group of bandits have been buried in the burial dragon slope. Even if there isn't, at least there isn't much left. Lu Yu didn't dare to rest anymore, for fear that Cheng Li's bandits would still survive, and it would be bad if he caught up. Besides, the most important thing for me now is to find a water source first, otherwise I will die of thirst.
Patting his own dust, Lu Yu stood up against the mountain wall, stepped on the boulder, and struggled to climb up the slope. Now he can only pray in his heart that as long as he bypasses a few falling rocks, he can rush to meet the rescuers of Ximen Hou according to the original road, and then reach the Wei State smoothly, so that there will be no more accidents.
