Before dawn, Yuan Rui and the three of them had already led their troops to garrison a low mountain in the south of Sheteng Town. From here, you can see the town. It stands to reason that this hour should not yet be the time to work, but there are several places in the city that are brightly lit and seem out of place with the surrounding scenes, which should be the place of alchemy of their national teacher.

After a while, Qu Xiangdong led the scout team to report that there were four Dan houses in the city, and sure enough, it was the place where the lights were on at the moment, which was very recognizable.

Yuan Rui summoned Shangguan Qian and Ji Dan: "Although there are not many worms in the city, this is not a simple raid, but more importantly, it is more important to destroy the Dan room and prevent the worms from taking advantage of the chaos to transport the pills, so everyone still needs to be spirited." ”

The two agreed.

Yuan Rui: "Ji Dan, after breaking the city, you will take 10,000 people to guard the gates of each city, and you can't put a pill out of the city!" ”

Ji Dan: "Yes! ”

Yuan Rui looked at Shangguan Qian: "This king and his predecessors acted separately, each of them was responsible for two Dan rooms, and burned them!" ”

Shangguan Qian: "Yes! ”

Because the Rouran people were completely defenseless, and they were not good at defending the city, the city gate was quickly breached by Yuan Rui. Without stopping for a moment, Yuan Rui's troops quickly divided into four paths, carrying torches and running towards their respective targets.

Yuan Rui's troops had a clear goal and acted quickly, and it didn't take long for the four Dan houses in the city to be on fire. Yuan Rui and a few pro-soldiers leaned their backs against the wall, looking at the Danfang in the sea of fire in front of them, their hearts were surging. There were Rouran soldiers and people rushing out of the room, and occasionally a few who tried to put out the fire were instantly annihilated by the Wei army guarding the side. The rest of the people who scattered and fled for their lives, Yuan Rui also went with them, and did not kill them all.

The fire grew bigger, and even Yuan Rui, who was dozens of steps away, seemed to be able to hear the "crackling" sound of burning wood. Seeing that the Danfang was about to collapse, suddenly, a Taoist jumped out of the fire, followed by three Rouran soldiers. The distance was not close, Yuan Rui didn't see how he made a move, only to see a flash of white light, and several Wei troops who were blocking around fell to the ground and died without warning. In the blink of an eye, the group had disappeared around the corner.

"Worm National Teacher!" Yuan Rui had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly patted his horse and chased after him. A few soldiers who reacted quickly caught a glimpse of Yuan Rui rushing out, and immediately got on their horses to follow, flicking their horsewhips wildly, and finally barely kept up with Yuan Rui, and the rest of them were left far behind. "Inform General Shangguan! Discover the Worm National Division! Yuan Rui shouted loudly at the soldiers who didn't follow, and after speaking, he didn't care about them anymore, and walked away with a horse's belly.

No matter how good a person's foot strength is, he can't outrun the war horse after all, and after turning two streets, Yuan Rui caught up with the Taoist. "Who are you? Why did you come out of the Dan room? Is it a worm national teacher? "No matter how sure Yuan Rui is in his heart, he must first confirm the identity of the other party.

The man stopped, looked back and glared at Yuan Rui. Only then did Yuan Rui see that although he was full of white hair, his face was still very ruddy, not like an elderly person. Seeing a cold and bloodthirsty light shooting out of his eyes, like a hungry wolf looking at the prey in front of him, Yuan Rui couldn't help but shudder.

Before the person could speak, the three Rouran soldiers beside him had already jumped in front of Yuan Rui and the others, drew their scimitars and launched a fierce attack. No matter from the posture or angle of the sword, it can be seen that these people have a good martial arts foundation, and they are by no means comparable to ordinary soldiers. "Everyone, be careful!" Yuan Rui reminded his subordinates while opening his weapons.

However, to no avail, Yuan Rui's subordinates were not opponents at all, and after a few moves, they were killed one after another. "It's so reckless! I should know how powerful the worm is, not to mention their national teacher, and no matter what his own martial arts are, I may not even be able to fight the people around him now. How could I just take such a few people to pursue the Worm National Teacher? Isn't this self-defeating? Not to mention that he is still injured in his left shoulder at the moment, and his movement is restricted. Yuan Rui secretly blamed himself for holding it up. But having said that, the situation was urgent at that time, and a moment of hesitation would make this person slip away, if time was turned back and given him a chance to choose again, it was estimated that Yuan Rui would still pursue without hesitation.

When he was distracted, the Rouran soldier in front of him suddenly slashed down in the air, Yuan Rui hurriedly avoided it sideways, and at the same time, taking advantage of the opponent's lack of strength, he raised his leg and kicked him out of the distance. Before he could take a breath, the scimitars of the other two Rouran soldiers were approaching again, so he had to strengthen his spirit and see the move. In this way, it didn't take long for Yuan Rui's forehead to sweat.

"This person's martial arts are good, leave him alive, he burned the alchemy room of the poor Dao, and the poor Dao wants to take him as a slave and let him be tortured to death!" The Taoist who was watching the battle said viciously.

When the Rouran soldiers heard this, they had scruples, and their moves were not so ruthless, and the pressure on Yuan Rui's shoulders suddenly decreased. It's just that Yuan Rui didn't have time to care about what the Taoist said at the moment, why the other party suddenly left his hand, and he didn't have the heart to think about what the "companion slave" in his mouth meant, and his whole body and mind were on the three scimitars around him.

Gradually, the figures and appearances of the three Rouran soldiers became blurred in Yuan Rui's eyes, but the magic was that the eyes of the three people, the muscles of their arms, the direction of the scimitar, and even the vibration of the surrounding air were extremely clear, this was an unprecedented experience, and Yuan Rui didn't know why.

The sound of the wind sounded from the back of his head, and Yuan Rui instinctively turned around and swung away the scimitar, but his body reacted before his brain could think. Block one knife, and the other two knives will be used as chest squeezes. On weekdays, Yuan Rui must not have been able to defend himself, but at this moment, the shoulders of the two Rouran soldiers moved, and Yuan Rui walked diagonally to a safe place in advance as if he had predicted the direction of their moves, and seized the old moment between the two of them to strike back like lightning.

The light of the knife flashed, bringing up several pieces of blood, and the two Rouran soldiers were blind, throwing down their scimitars, holding their heads and howling. This call brought Yuan Rui's consciousness back to reality, and he looked at the long knife in his hand in disbelief, could it be that this is the highest level of the Shuixin Knife Method that Shangguan Qian said, and there is no trick in his heart?

Just as he was hesitating, the man suddenly flew towards Yuan Rui, and his hand reached into his waist, and there was already a silver whip, swaying like a long snake and flying towards him. Yuan Rui was suddenly startled, and swung his knife to try to open the long whip. The swords and soldiers intersected, and Yuan Rui finally saw that what the man was using was an iron whip about five or six feet long, densely composed of dozens of segments more than an inch long, so it was like a leather whip when wielded, and it was very flexible. If the other party used a hard weapon such as a sword, Yuan Rui's knife would have successfully blocked his attack, but the weapon in the hand of that person was a soft whip, and the momentum was not stopped, but it just turned around, still leaving a wound on Yuan Rui's hand.

Yuan Rui tried to concentrate and try to return to the state just now, but it was in vain to try several times, and the opponent's offensive was fierce and tricky, almost every time he dismantled a move, Yuan Rui had an extra color on his body. There is a huge difference in strength, and in a moment, Yuan Rui is already scarred, and when he falls completely depends on the mood of the other party.

And the other party seemed to enjoy the pleasure of revenge, and was not in a hurry to end the game, teasing Yuan Rui like a wild cat playing with a mouse. Just when Yuan Rui was almost desperate, the head of the man's silver whip was suddenly slapped away by a knife, and he drew an arc back with a roar, and it turned out that Shangguan Qian arrived in time. Fortunately, that person was agile and avoided it, otherwise he would have been injured under his own blade at this moment.

"Lu Sheng! The Worm National Teacher turned out to be you? Shangguan Qian exclaimed.

The soft-eyed Rouran soldier wanted to sneak attack while Shangguan Qian was speaking, and the scimitar quickly attacked Shangguan Qian's back, but Shangguan Qian's eyes seemed to be swollen from behind, and while leaning over to avoid it, he cut his throat with a knife.

"Humph! Why not? Lu Shengdao didn't seem to see the scene of his subordinates dying, and replied to Shangguan Qiandao. Suddenly, the silver whip in his hand flicked, Yuan Rui and the others didn't know where he wanted to attack from, and they were busy on guard, but he turned around suddenly, tiptoed, and ran away.

"I want to run!" Shangguan Qian was about to pursue, but when he heard the sound of Yuan Rui falling to the ground behind him, he hurriedly abandoned Lu Sheng and helped Yuan Rui up: "Your Highness!" ”

Yuan Rui said weakly: "This king is fine, but he is too tired and ...... creeping."

Shangguan Qian looked at the direction where Lu Sheng was going: "It's too late." ”

Yuan Rui endured the sourness that spread to his limbs, and struggled to stand up: "There are two more worm soldiers......"

Shangguan Qian pointed to the open space beside him: "Your Highness said that they are the only ones?" ”

Looking down along Shangguan Qian's fingers, Yuan Rui couldn't help but be stunned, the three Rouran soldiers who were still fighting with him just now, in addition to the one killed by Shangguan Qian, the other two were also dead on the ground, their pupils protruded, and there was a black blood hanging on the corner of their mouths, which was exactly the same as when He Gu died, obviously committing suicide by taking poison in order not to be a prisoner. "These worms have not taken the pill, but their strength is comparable to that of ordinary masters, and they don't know how to spare their lives at all, so you need to be extremely careful when fighting with this kind of opponent." Yuan Rui said with palpitations.

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Qian knelt down in front of Yuan Rui when he heard this, and suddenly Yuan Rui hurriedly reached out to help, but Shangguan Qian secretly made his own efforts, and Yuan Rui, who was currently exhausted, couldn't help him at all. Shangguan Qian grabbed Yuan Rui's hands: "Your Highness, you are a rough person in Xia, and you can't talk about any big truths, but even so, you have to persuade Your Highness well today." ”

Yuan Rui was stunned: "What advice do the seniors have, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

Shangguan Qian: "Since the beginning of the war, Your Highness has always taken the lead and rushed to the forefront every time, which is good, but it has also put yourself in danger several times. Your Highness, you are a golden body, if you die in the hands of a few small soldiers, wouldn't it make people laugh out of their big teeth if it is passed out, and it is not worth it. ”

Yuan Rui's face was slightly red, Shangguan Qian said well, in the first battle of Yingchuan, Xing Feng raided, and he took the lead in rushing into the enemy formation, but he almost died, but fortunately Tu Hong rescued him; encountered the creeping for the first time, and was surrounded by the "black wolf warriors" who were crazy about serving Dan, if it weren't for Shangguan Qian's replacement of himself, I am afraid that he would have become a martyr; Plus today, it's been three times. Often walk by the river, how can there be no wet shoes, good luck can not always favor themselves, this problem should indeed attract their own attention, so solemnly promised: "The predecessors are reasonable, this king must pay attention in the future." ”

Shangguan Qian wiped his tears, got up and put Yuan Rui's left hand on his shoulder: "Although we ran away from the Worm National Division, under the command of His Highness, we still won this battle." The soldiers are waiting for His Highness to celebrate! ”

Yuan Rui suddenly squinted at Shangguan Qian: "What did the senior just say that this national teacher is called Lu?" ”

Shangguan Qian then remembered this: "This Taoist priest is the protector of the Night Wolf Alliance in the past, Lu Sheng, and I don't know how he became a creeping national teacher." More than ten years ago, Shen Kun was inexplicably chased and killed by him and several of his subordinates, and was seriously injured. As he spoke, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "Hey! It's just that I didn't expect Shen Kun to be assassinated again, and 'black and white impermanence' disappeared, and I don't know how he is doing now. "Apparently still haunted by what happened eleven years ago.

"It's useless to think too much about the past, seniors take a look!" Yuan Rui comforted, "But after the predecessors said this, this king remembered that Lu Sheng once said that he saw that this king had some martial arts, and he wanted to arrest this king why he was 'accompanying slaves', I don't know if he has the habit of hunting people in the martial arts, maybe chasing Shen Kun back then was also for this." ”

The two talked about stopping, and when they returned to the camp, it was already dawn. The victorious cheers of Ji Dan and the others instantly infected Yuan Rui, leaving aside the unhappiness just now, and throwing himself into the carnival crowd regardless of his own pain.
