Rain!

The summer rain is the most violent of the year, especially in the mountainous area of the southeast ground, for the soldiers from the north, this kind of rain is like someone holding a big bucket from the sky, it is simply more terrible than the Taipingdao.

It was late at night, in the military tent, Ji Chongguang had not slept since he was alone, alone with the lone lamp, his eyes were blazing, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Young Master......"

After the attendants brought tea and supper three times in a row, the one who came in with a wooden tray was replaced by an old man with a white beard, and while putting down the hot tea and hot towels, he also made suggestions to Ji Chongguang.

"I'm worried."

When the old man spoke, Ji Chongguang also stood up and politely let him with his hand, and he didn't sit back in his seat until the old man sat down. Although he had actually achieved the highest position in this army at the moment, he still had to maintain enough respect for Nangong Xiao, the old man who was the head of the three hundred guests of the Ji family.

"Yes."

Regarding the old man's worries, Ji Chongguang nodded slightly, saying that this was the reason why he couldn't sleep late at night.

"There must be something that the old men of the Ao family didn't tell us......"

The first battle of Wutou Mountain, under the command of Ji Chongguang, can be called a complete victory, although Yun Chongbo entered in the final stage of the battle, preventing the complete collapse of the morale and order of the Taiping army, but the goal of rushing to the ferry has been perfectly achieved. Although it is a pity to miss He Lingbing's first rank, with his current record, Ji Chongguang can already fight for enough right to speak.

According to the original plan, the frontal resistance has been broken, and the next step should be the first army to cross the river, no matter how outstanding the generals He Lingbing and Yun Chongbo are, in the face of a lineup five times their size, they can only lead the army to retreat.

However, since the day after the First World War of Wutou Mountain, strange winds and waves began to appear on the river: the boat crossed the wind, and the boat stopped the wind. The imperial army had tens of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of ships on the opposite shore, but they could only watch the river and have nothing to do.

It's not that there are no brave people who want to challenge the wind and waves, but when even the partial general Qi Huaan, who has trained to the fifth level of strength, was swept away by a wave, and he couldn't afford to sink into the river for some reason, no soldiers were willing to go into the water.

The three generals of the Ao family all went into the river in person to investigate the water potential, but in the end, they only sent someone to send an inexplicable letter to the other side, telling them not to worry, this strange celestial phenomenon will disappear in ten days at most.

knew that there must be something strange in it, but they had no clue, Ji Chongguang and the others had no choice but to believe it: after all, although there was unhappiness between the two sides, in the name of the Ao family, it was not possible to at least do something to kill people with a knife.

"In the past few days, I've been wondering what kind of character can suppress San Ao so strongly...... After all, there are only a few big names in the world. ”

Although the rear army on the other side has not arrived, but the total number of troops in hand, the imperial army is still stronger than the Taiping army, not to mention the arrival of the newly victorious army, but Ji Chongguang is extremely steady, and he pressed the armies outside the Wutou Mountain, camped on the spot, and did not advance an inch.

"Nan Lao, these days, the more I think about it, the more I feel wrong...... Today's heavy rain is okay, but a few days ago, the wind and waves in the river, the more you look at it, the more it looks like man-made, but if you can do it with manpower, he will ride into the battle alone and pick off my head, and it is not necessarily how difficult it is, so why only do this? ”

Hearing Ji Chongguang say this, Nangong Xiao laughed a few times, but said, "Young Master, this is what you don't know...... The army has its own rules in the army, and both have a tacit understanding in mind. ”

"It's common to send out a master to assassinate the general, but when it comes to such a character...... Did Taiping Dao want to block Cangyueming's mouth for the two princes of Aoqiu? ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"The imperial army is very strong and there are many people, but the problem is ...... We are in the Taiping Dao, and we are fighting for our ideals. ”

The night is deep, the rain and wind are raging, the clouds are rushing to the waves, dressed like a common old fisherman in the local area, beside him is He Lingbing with a calm face, and then outward, it is a selection from her "Shi Cheng Army", a total of seventy-one people, all of whom are in addition to a hundred battles.

"So, the immortal, you rely on your ideals...... And our seventy-two helpers, we can destroy all these emperor demons who crossed the river? ”

has been silent for a long time, but when he finally couldn't help but speak, Rao is He Lingbing had tried his best to control himself, but he still couldn't suppress the thick sarcasm in his voice, and even ...... It's anger!

“…… Of course. ”

It didn't seem to be able to hear He Lingbing's words at all, Yun Chongbo nodded with a smile and said, "It's enough." ”

He Lingbing, who was angry in one sentence, was almost a Buddha born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and then swept it with his afterglow, and saw that none of his loyal subordinates were as resentful as himself, but they all had a look of reverence on their faces.

"The emperor demon who crossed the river is about 10,000 zeros, and the most elite troops among them, led by Ji Chongguang himself, are outside Aconitum Mountain."

His eyes only fell on the barracks, Yun Chongbo didn't pay attention to the movements around him at all, and only slowly decomposed the military situation, how many battalions the Daodu Jiang Emperor's army was divided into, where they were located, who were the leading generals, and what was their temperament...... explained one by one, He Lingbing only sneered at first, but then gradually became serious, and in the end, his face was even more angry.

"Immortal, you still ...... with those people"

He Lingbing seemed to want to question, but Yun Chongbo simply waved his hand, blocking her from speaking.

"There is no fault with the sword, but it depends on whose hand it holds."

“…… It's the same with intelligence. ”

Suddenly, he backhanded, knocked off the hat on his head, and Yun Chongbo let the wind carry the rain to frantically hit the head and pour into the neckline, his eyes condensed like a knife, staring at the center of the front military formation.

"We don't need to deal with 10,000, and we don't need to deal with 2,000."

"As told in the intelligence, the Eastern Route Army is a force that is so loose that it can no longer be loose, and it is only the Ji family and Ji Chongguang who can suppress and pinch the families of all families."

"So."

Raise your hand and point forward in the straightest way possible, just such a finger made the seventy-one elites of the army hold their breath at the same time: in their eyes, like a huge knife, with the finger strokes of Yun Chongbo, slashed forward, slashing the heavy camp of the imperial army, exposing the commander of the imperial army who had just given them a miserable defeat ten days ago, and put it on the board!

With his right hand lightly lifting the reins, the warhorse man under his crotch stood up, but did not make any neighing sound.

"Everyone."

With his legs lightly clamping the horse's belly, he gave the command to the mount, causing it to start trotting and gradually accelerating, while Yun Chongbo left the last words behind him.

“…… Come with me. ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When the first trace of commotion came into the handsome tent, Ji Chongguang's eyebrows stood up like a war knife, and his body suddenly revealed endless battle intent and murderous aura.

"The Undead...... You're finally here. ”

Striding out of the tent, while tearing off his beloved blood-like red cloak and wrapping it around his body, Ji Chongguang looked ahead: there was a continuous chaos and a constant breakthrough.

"Nan Lao, ......"

Repulsing the behavior of his relatives and entourage with rain gear on their heads, Ji Chongguang took a few steps forward and completely threw himself into the heavy rain.

"I'm glad."

With his arms outstretched, he met his body slightly, making a movement that seemed to hug the sky, and Ji Chongguang's voice became low, revealing a trace of excitement.

"Ten days ago, I threatened my privacy and defeated nine days with one move, of course she was unwilling, of course she was angry...... But who can know that my unwillingness, my anger, will surpass her tenfold, hundredfold? ”

"If it weren't for the illusion of her, if it weren't for the bigger surprise in the future, I ...... Why should I hold her hostage? ”

"Even if I fight with all my might, how can she be my opponent?!"

Angry to the sky, and at the same time, waves of electric light appeared on Ji Chongguang's body, at first it was cyan blue, then it gradually condensed into a deep purple, and then it transformed into pure milky white, which looked extremely gentle, and it didn't seem to have any lethal power, but it made all the rain within three feet of his side quickly vaporize in the flicker.

"Hard-working people, the sky lives up...... Young master, because of your forbearance at the beginning, you were able to hook a bigger fish than planned. ”

With his hands in his sleeves, Nangong's expression was indifferent, and he didn't seem to have made any luck moves, and let the wind and rain hit his body, but if he observed carefully, he would find that all the raindrops fell to the ground with the smoothest movements, and no trace accumulated on his body.

“…… Nice"

Taking a deep breath, the thunder cover outside his body suddenly contracted and disappeared, Ji Chongguang was soaked in rain in a blink of an eye, but his eyes were brighter, and his smile was louder.

"O ...... the undead"

In the sound of hissing, Ji Chongguang turned over and jumped on his mount, whipped in front of him, and then, surrounded by more than 100 personal soldiers, rushed out.

"Wait for me!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When the two sides were still more than a hundred steps apart, Yun Chongbo and Ji Chongguang had locked each other's figures at the same time.

"Ji Gongzi, he's very confident, ......"

Although Yun Chongbo just muttered to himself, did not make more comments and did not look back at He Lingbing, who had been following him closely, but just this sentence came into his ears, which was enough to make He Lingbing feel tingled and couldn't help but defend himself.

"Immortal, I repeat, there was another reason for the battle that day...... If I fight fairly, that young master won't be my opponent! ”

Scratching his ears, Yun Chongbo pretended not to hear it, after all, he who had heard this sentence more than a hundred times in the past ten days was also very distressed.

(For another reason...... You can tell me the reason! )

…… He Lingbing has always expressed strong opposition to today's action.

With the strength of Yun Chongbo at this moment, although even Sanao is not enough to be an enemy here, but the ants bite the elephant to death, if they are trapped in the midst of ten thousand armies, one by one heavy enemy will surround them, plus the combat power of the sons of all generations, in the end, they will have to fall north and flee...... You have to be able to get out of it first.

But in the end, at Yun Chongbo's insistence, He Lingbing still made concessions: it was not only because Yun Chongbo came up with terrifyingly accurate information, but also because Yun Chongbo affirmed that as long as he found Ji Chongguang, he would definitely be able to end the battle in three moves.

"No, no, I'm not looking down on you, I know you're amazing......"

Trying to appease the angry He Lingbing, Yun Chongbo explained with a wry smile that he had a magic weapon that Ji Chongguang couldn't think of and couldn't stop.

"What he has to face is not only me, but also the power of ...... 'history'!"

Breaking through one heavy camp after another, Yun Chongbo rushed to Ji Chongguang's military camp in a straight line, and on the opposite side, Ji Chongguang and his entourage, who galloped in the heavy rain, saved him nearly one-third of his time.

(…… Sure enough)

At about twenty steps, the blue light on Ji Chongguang's body was released, and it turned into a red blood color, which was included in his body, although it was only a very short moment, but Yun Chongbo had been waiting for this detail.

(The end of all things, the beginning of all things, the one who is not prosperous...... Ji Chongguang, sure enough, practiced the Ji family's innate thunder method to the realm of "all things" in the realm of water and fire, and Shanzetong...... On that day, he was really deliberately keeping his hand! )

Seeing that the two sides were within ten paces of each other, neither of them slowed down, but more fiercely stimulated the potential of the horses under them, until the moment when the horses' heads collided, the two of them abandoned the reins at the same time, one opened his hand to thunder, and the other drew his knife with his backhand.

"The Undead...... Come on! ”

The moment he left the saddle, Ji Chongguang didn't make any reservations, and used the "Thunder Spirit Bead" he seized from the Wine Sword Immortal as a medium, and released his twenty years of hard work to release his thunder skills, at that moment, the thunder energy condensed, like blood, turned into four thunder dragons, opened his teeth and danced his claws, and all the whereabouts of Yun Chongbo were sealed!

Relying on the power of the sky, it is for the "heavenly thunder and strong", borrowing the rain to solve the "thunderstorm", and the two blows are done together, and the power is increased upwards, and the more refined is the upper section of the Ji family's thunder gong: It is rumored that in the hands of Emperor Xuanyuan, he once burned the entire city with one blow, and the thunder devoured the sky!

Even He Lingbing, who has always been unconvinced and has always hoped to "do it again", couldn't help but turn pale when he saw this blow.

(That day, he didn't even use this trick...... What I have learned, except for "that one move", there is no way to shake this blow! )

…… However, Yun Chongbo smiled.

"Very wonderful, but ......"

The knife turned to his left hand and drew strange symbols in the air with his right hand, which seemed to make no sense, but accurately triggered the power of the thunder dragon, allowing Yun Chongbo to move sideways and penetrate the attack that seemed to devour everything without damage.

"You're not going to face me, you're going to face ......"

Although he penetrated the first blow of the four thunder dragons, Ji Chongguang was not defenseless, and while continuously attacking, he also summoned the four dragons to return to attack the enemy, but the surrounding soldiers and the Taiping Dao people were dumbfounded to see that Yun Chongbo didn't even look at him, so he used some of the simplest actions to defuse Ji Chongguang's various attacks one by one.

“…… The power of history! ”

Three verticals, seven retreats, five squares, plus the simplest twist, Yun Chongbo has defused all of Ji Chongguang's attacks, and attacked his side, and after that, it seems to be just a bland backhand blow, but he can accurately poke the back of Ji Chongguang's neck with the handle of the knife, making his body collapse instantly!

It was too late, it was fast, and the two of them fought in a leap, although Nangong Xiao had swept into the arena before they landed...... However, he could only watch in amazement as Yun Chongbo landed steadily, and grabbed Ji Chongguang, who had fallen into a coma, with his backhand!

The long roar in the sky shocked the surrounding whether it was the imperial army or the Taiping army, but none of these people could understand, this seemed to be a relief of the burden, and it seemed to be in the crazy whistling, what was hidden, what Yun Chongbo really wanted to say.

(…… Yuan Dang, thank you. )
