Chapter 122: Ode to the Buddha
Outside Yangqu City, dozens of miles further, there is a vast and boundless grassland in front of you, but there is no green in this severe winter festival, and there are withered and withered grass everywhere, mixed with the white snow that has accumulated for a long time.

"Driving ......"
In the roaring north wind, the four horses galloped quickly, their hooves stomping heavily on the frozen mud and grass, leaving cracks and frost in their wake.
The red sun overhead gradually moved westward, and there was not half a bird or beast in sight in the desolate grassland, let alone a human figure, if it could be met, it was also a Huns.
However, instead of searching aimlessly, Liu Xi hoped to meet a few Huns, so that at least he could interrogate some useful clues.
Just as Liu Xi was frowning and thinking, Xiao Wu behind him shook a few whips vigorously, chased after him, and shouted loudly in his ear, "Yusheng, we have traveled dozens of miles, the grassland is so big, it is not easy to find hundreds of people, we still have to think of a way!" ”
Indeed, as Xiao Wu said, the grassland is boundless and endless, and one hundred and ten people are like a drop in the ocean, how can it be so easy to find?
Liu Xi also wanted to have a wonderful method in his heart, he couldn't wait to fly in the air, so that he could take a closer look, but according to his cultivation, he naturally couldn't fly in the sky, so after listening to Xiao Wu's words, his brows couldn't help but tighten a little more.
Saving people is like fighting fires, if it is a little late, those soldiers who are ramping the brigade are afraid that they will be more auspicious and less auspicious, thinking about this, Liu Xi, who is quite depressed, is slamming the horse's belly again, and he will speed up to the north.
"Your Excellency, Your Majesty......"
In the cold wind that filled his ears, there seemed to be a shout, Liu Xi turned his head, but saw a figure galloping behind him.
Soon, I saw the face of the person who came, it was Luo Shan who stayed in Yangqu City.
Holding the reins fiercely, Luo Shan jumped off the horse, panting and saluting Liu Xi, "My subordinates have seen adults!" ”
"But something happened in the city!"
Liu Xi blurted out and asked, at this moment, Luo Shan hurriedly chased after him, all he could think of was that something happened in Yangqu City.
Panting, Luo Shan shook his head again and again, took a few gulps of cold air, eased his breath, and handed the reins in his hand forward, "Your Excellency, everything is fine in the city, I am here to send this black horse, this is Brother Guo's horse, I have been in the Rampage Brigade for many years, and I should be able to help my lord find other brothers in the Rampage Brigade." ”
The old horse knows the way, how can he forget this truth?
Secretly complaining, Liu Xi hurriedly jumped off the horse and threw the horse he stepped on to Luo Shan, "There is General Lauro." ”
Jumping on Guo Wei's black horse, Liu Xi could clearly feel its restlessness, holding his horse's head high, and seemed to be in a hurry to go northwest.
Sure enough, this horse is human.
"General Luo, please take care of the affairs in this city."
After saying this, Liu Xi no longer hesitated, immediately grabbed the reins and went with the horse.
Under the gallop of the black horse, it was more than 20 miles, and the smell of blood could be vaguely smelled in the cold wind, Liu Xi's heart moved, and the rampage brigade was ahead!
The big black horse also seemed to understand that the Rampage Brigade was in deep danger, and there was no need for Liu Xi to shake the whip, so he hissed, and spit out a cloud of hot air in his mouth, which was a little faster, like a black lightning, shuttling and galloping over the field.
Finally, Liu Xi saw the scene of the battle ahead, where a slightly worn flag was tied to a half-human-high branch, swaying in the wind.
On the banner is the head of a bull with angry eyes.
At this moment, the banner was being held by a man with one hand, raising the blood-stained long sword in his hand, "Kill!" ”
The voice was hoarse, but he did not hesitate.
On the other side, hundreds of Huns armed with scimitars, surrounded by a zhang of laughter, as if they were hunting, and the remaining soldiers of the rampage brigade of less than 100 were their prey.
Can't escape and let the prey play.
At this moment, the soldiers of the rampaging brigade who were leaning on the bull's head banner rushed forward with their soldiers, and the Huns laughed wildly, beating horses in twos and threes in circles in the same place, raising their bows and arrows in their hands.
"Woo Woo ......"
The arrows flew out, and several soldiers who were charging immediately fell to the ground, and the rest looked at their fallen companions, biting their bleeding lips, and rushed towards the Huns again.
Thinking that it was boring, one of the Huns with a big waist and a round waist pulled out the scimitar inlaid with beads, and shouted a few obscure words in his mouth, and then all the Huns pulled out their scimitars, laughed and drove their horses forward.
"Let me save people!"
At the last moment, Liu Xi turned his head, said a word to Xiaowu and Qu Lang, and then stepped on the horse's back, like an arrow from the string, and pounced towards the place of battle.
"This official is the Tang Dynasty Qincha, who dares to touch my soldiers!"
The sound of thunder sounded on the grassland, startling the Huns who sat down on their horses in a panic, and the Huns, who were at a loss, had not yet come back to their senses, they saw two bright lights flying from a distance, and came to them in the blink of an eye, and then only felt a hot feeling on their necks, and reached out to touch it, so sticky, and then in front of them, it was full of blood.
It was the bright silver sword and the green steel sword that came out of the sky of the big and small martial arts. As soon as the flying sword came out, it took the head of the person thousands of miles away.
Although Liu Xi jumped off the horse, he did not sacrifice the evil spirit, because at the moment when his feet hit the ground, he felt the two swords flying out from behind him, so he suppressed the evil spirit surging in his body.
It is enough to have two big and small martial arts to make a move, and he, Liu Xi, also needs to preserve his strength and hide his identity, perhaps this is also the reason why Xiao Wu is in a hurry to make a move.
Hundreds of Huns, for the Wu brothers who have cultivated in Dacheng, it is just something that can be erased by a gesture, at this time, Liu Xi finally understood why for thousands of years, martial arts practitioners have been forbidden to participate in secular battles, just because the higher the realm, the more powerful the slaughtering weapon.
At this time, whether the legendary Illusion Venerable would notice it and punish Xiao Wu, Liu Xi no longer cared, there were too many humiliations and fights in this world, if the ethereal rumors really existed, then he would only be in awe.
Ignoring human suffering, even God, is not worthy of respect.
Thinking wildly in his heart, Liu Xi strode to the soldiers of the Hengchong Brigade who were still sluggish, and the big and small martial arts also floated over, wiped the blood on the sword body, and then took it back casually.
"I'm the Tang Dynasty, but I'm the one who is ramping the brigade?"
After Liu Xi spoke for a long time, the person holding the flag took the lead in coming back to his senses, strode forward, and knelt on one knee, "I've seen my lord, my subordinate is the commander of the Chong Brigade Folding Battalion, Ni Feng!" ”
The person who raised the flag knelt, and the rest of the people also saluted, and the words in their mouths trembled, but when they said the words 'Rampage Brigade', the pride and firmness were unquestionable.
Seeing these desperate soldiers, Liu Xi didn't know what to say for a while, and after a long time, he said to everyone in a deep voice, "Okay, go back to the city with me." ”
And as soon as these words came out of the city, those soldiers were all red, and even knelt on the ground and didn't want to get up, "My lord, my subordinates are sinners, and I didn't protect General Sima, please punish ......."
"Bad seeds!"
Liu Xi's sudden low shout made the soldiers stunned, and they stayed there, their mouths open, but they didn't dare to make any more sounds.
"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, but it is a defeat, what's the big deal, as long as the bull head flag is still there, the rampage brigade is there, as long as the rampage brigade is there, Yangqu City will not allow the Huns to take a step forward, is it possible that you have forgotten your mission! The current situation is very critical, you and I both know, if you continue to cry here like a girl, you will stay here, and the right to come here in vain! ”
After that, Liu Xi crossed the horse and whipped away, Xiao Wu and Qu Lang wanted to talk, but when they saw that Da Wu also rode away, they immediately got on the horse, turned around and turned back.
Behind him, the soldiers of the rampaging brigade were stunned for a moment, and they all galloped towards the war horses left by the Huns before, threw off their arms, and chased Liu Xi with their horses.
Soon, the horse's hooves were gone, and the night fell, and the cold wind blew the grassland into a bleak silence.
"Amitabha."
A brown linen cloth robe moved with the wind, the person who came was bareheaded, with a delicate face, walking barefoot in the ice and snow, clasping his hands in front of the dead Huns, and saying a Buddha ode.
"How can this be reasonable, someone dares to hurt my prairie son!"
On his side, there were dozens of Huns riding tall horses, the leader of whom was wrapped in a white lamb's coat, his face was pale, and he clutched the gold-handled scimitar at his waist.
"The dead are gone, let them be at peace, third prince, it seems that the news has leaked, I should go back and discuss with the Great Khan."
The Huns on horseback snorted coldly, "Even if the Han people know, can they still stop my son's iron horse?" ”
Although he said this, he still left a few people to collect the corpses, and he led the rest of the people to beat the horses and walked back, while the brown-robed monk walked on the grass with his feet as white as jade, but he could follow the galloping horses unhurriedly.
"Third brother!"
Several more people appeared, the leader of whom was round and fat, courageous and furious, wrapped in a thick leather jacket, and when he saw the previous Huns, he hurriedly stopped, but the latter did not seem to look at him, and went straight away.
"The second prince, the third prince and the eldest prince get closer, so they don't take you seriously......"
On the side, the entourage wanted to say something, but was glared at by the fat Huns, "Hugh is talking nonsense!" ”
After saying this, he turned his face again and asked the person on one side, "Heavenly Master, what should I do?" ”
"At this time, the prince naturally wants to go back, otherwise, he will miss the Great Khan's army."
The voice was a little lazy, and when he looked closely, the speaker had a handsome face, eyes like stars, staring at the brown clothes that were gradually moving away, with a purple crown on his head and a jade crown, and the purple clothes on his body moving slightly in the wind.
