Chapter 6: The Shadow of Death (1)
Seeing that Brother Wolf was no longer good, Brother Tiger shouted, "Brother Wolf, hold on!" I'll take you to your father right away. After saying that, he left everyone behind, picked up the wolf brother and ran out of the post hall, and rode a yellow-maned horse and galloped away.
Brother Hu's actions surprised everyone in the post hall that at this time, only Liu Yulong, Zhang, Huang, and Yin, the three guards of Liujiabao's group of twelve people were still alive.
Liu Yulong lay down for a while before he got up, and when he saw the dead people on the ground, he felt really scared, and then he thought that he had killed someone just now, and he was even more overwhelmed.
At this time, the other three guards also got up, and when they saw Liu Yulong sitting on the side in a daze, they must have been scared stupid, and one of the guards surnamed Zhang said: "Young Castle Master, let's get out of here quickly, if that barbarian comes back to seek revenge, it will be troublesome!" ”
Liu Yulong asked blankly, "Where to go?" ”
Zhang Huyuan said: "Now I have to go back to Liujiabao first and report to the lord of the castle. ”
Liu Yulong: "Don't you go to Jiangxia County?" ”
Zhang Huyuan said: "The young castle master is so confused, now that there are a few lives, the errand of sending runes will naturally be put down first." ”
Liu Yulong's voice trembled and said, "Yes, go home immediately." ”
Zhang and Huang picked up Liu Yulong, who was sitting on the ground, and went out to find a yellow-maned horse, and ran back after riding.
Less than half an hour later, I saw a horse lying asleep on the side of the road in front of me, and when I walked in, I saw a yellow-maned horse, spitting blood.
Yin Huyuan said: "This horse should be ours, it looks like it is exhausted to death. ”
"Not good!" Zhang Huyuan exclaimed: "That big man just now also walked this official road. ”
Yin Huyuan suddenly realized and said: "Yes, this horse was tired to death by him, he held his younger brother in his hands, and the two big men rode this horse, and they tired this horse to death!" ”
Liu Yulong asked tremblingly, "So...... Those two wicked men are ahead. ”
Huang Huyuan said: "This is very likely, Young Castle Master, why don't we take a detour and go back!" ”
As soon as Liu Yulong heard that there were other ways, he immediately ordered: "Then don't go quickly!" ”
The four men and four horsemen immediately walked down the official road and marched along the path.
The path was much farther than the official road, and it was already night when the four of them returned to Liujiabao.
As soon as he saw the young castle lord coming back, a family member immediately rushed to report to Liu Chenxing.
Liu Chenxing had just fallen asleep, and when he heard that the family had come to report, he felt that something was wrong, so he immediately changed his clothes and walked to the main hall, only to see that there were only Liu Yulong and Zhang, Huang, and Yin in the hall, and asked in surprise: "Why did you come back so soon?" What about the others? ”
Zhang Huyuan said: "All dead! ”
Liu Chenxing asked, "Dead?" What's going on? ”
Zhang, Huang, and Yin, the three guardians, met two rude northern Hu rune masters in the post station, and then told Liu Chenxing about the fight as it was.
Liu Chenxing touched his beard and listened to it, the more he realized that something was wrong, but after thinking about it again, it was nothing more than killing a Hu man from the north, and it was not a big deal, so he pondered for a long time and asked, "Have you seen what kind of gang rune masters the two big men are?" ”
The three nurses shook their heads together and said they hadn't seen it.
Liu Chenxing said: "Okay, the three of you escaped death and protected Long'er safely, it's also very hard, let's go back and rest first!" Don't tell anyone about today's events for the time being, I have my own arrangements. ”
Zhang, Huang, and Yin retreated after clasping their fists and saluting.
Liu Chenxing said again: "Call Butler Bai over." ”
After a while, a man wearing a white scarf and a purple silk robe came in.
Liu Chenxing said: "On the way to deliver the runes today, we met the Jiangyang thief, although the robber was beaten away, we also lost our troops. Steward Xue was also unfortunately killed, and you will be the big butler here in the future. Tomorrow I will go to the treasury and withdraw some more silver taels and distribute them to the families of several people who have passed away today. ”
After the white housekeeper asked Liu Chenxing about the specific amount of silver taels, he retreated, and only Liu Chenxing's father and son were left in the hall.
Liu Chenxing asked Liu Yulong, "Do you remember what kind of rune technique the person you fought with today used?" ”
Liu Yulong said: "The big man who fought with me was called Brother Tiger and used a golden rune, first summoning a Siberian tiger, and then summoning a Dangkang. That one was more powerful than the Siberian tiger, and the jade dragon scattered as soon as its fangs pierced me. ”
"Oh!" Liu Chenxing was slightly surprised and asked, "Isn't your jade dragon able to sneak, how could Dang Kang catch it." ”
Liu Yulong said: "Originally, the jade dragon sneaked to deceive Dang Kang, and then sneak attacked and bit Dang Kang's back, but the wicked man immediately nailed it with the spell rune of the trident. ”
After hearing this, Liu Chenxing felt that he had heard of this kind of rune routine, so he stood up and thought about it while walking in the hall, and suddenly patted his head and said, "What you said is a bit like the trick routine of the Northern Qi Wanqi Villa." It's called 'pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger', and Dangkang's summoned beast in the shape of a wild boar is even more powerful than a tiger's. ”
Liu Yulong asked, "What is Wan Qi Villa?" ”
Liu Chenxing said: "Listen to my father, that is, your grandfather, about fifty years ago, Wan Qi Villa and Liujiabao were both famous masters in making runes south of the Great Wall, but the emphasis was different. ”
Liu Yulong asked, "What's the difference?" ”
Liu Chenxing said, "We focus on the enchantment runes, and Wan Qi Villa focuses on weapon runes. Enchantment runes are runes used to enhance rune masters or summoned beasts, which are equivalent to armor, heart guards, and other things equipped by soldiers. Weapon runes are runes used to enhance the ability of summoned beasts, which are equivalent to axes, axes, knives, forks and other weapons used by soldiers. These two runes are fundamentally the relationship between the shield and the spear. ”
Liu Yulong asked: "Why is Jiangnan Wanqi Villa not famous now?" ”
Liu Chenxing said: "About thirty years ago, Wan Qianling, the owner of Wan Qi Villa, wanted to dominate the rune market south of the Great Wall, so he proposed to test the rune technique with your grandfather Liu Wuving, and they agreed that the winner would stay south of the Great Wall, and the loser would go north of the Great Wall and never come back. ”
Liu Yulong was born in Jiangnan and asked, "So it must be grandpa who won!" ”
Liu Chenxing smiled proudly: "Of course, your grandfather can be said to be an invincible opponent in the world at that time, and I have never seen him lose when I was a child." Your grandfather can turn defeat into victory as long as he casts the 'Lost Soul Curse'. ”
Liu Yulong said half-convinced: "Really? Why did I use the 'Soul Loss Curse' to hit that tiger brother today, and the liquid in his physical strength crystal only dropped a little. ”
Liu Chenxing shook his head and said, "Your current cultivation naturally can't be compared to your grandfather. ”
At this time, a family ran into the house in a panic and said, "The castle owner is not good, something happened to the Zhang Nursing Courtyard, and it seems that he is out of breath." ”
