Chapter 394: Chopping off the horse's head
However, Ling Yan was completely facing Colonel Zuo, and he could clearly see Colonel Zuo's expression - at this time, Colonel Zuo's expression was terrifying to the extreme, his face was gloomy to the extreme, and his eyes showed extreme killing intent, which looked so hideous that it made people feel cold, and just now after he was hit by that internal qi wave, he only grinned slightly at the corner of his mouth, and then returned to that hideous expression.

At this time, Ling Yan completely realized Colonel Zuo's hatred for himself, to what extent - looking at Colonel Zuo's expression, it seemed that he couldn't solve his hatred at all if he didn't break himself into pieces.
As Colonel Zuo approached step by step, the more frightened Ling Yan's heart became, he moved his hands and feet to stand up, but he tried many times but was unsuccessful, he just retreated with his hands and feet - Ling Yan was not injured, and falling off the horse was also an emergency measure he took the initiative to do, although it hurt to fall off such a high horse, but it was only a skin injury, in this emergency moment, that small injury was not enough at all, and the reason why Ling Yan couldn't stand up was entirely because the fear of internal qi had reached a certain level, and his heart was flustered, Therefore, the hands and feet are not very "obedient to orders".
The reason why Ling Yan was afraid of Colonel Zuo didn't seem to be completely worried about being killed by Colonel Zuo, but the biggest reason was from Colonel Zuo's expression, that kind of expression, as Ling Yan, who was only in his twenties, was undoubtedly no different from a nightmare.
Colonel Zuo was getting closer and closer, and he had already separated his palms, and the qi sword had disappeared. But at this time, Zuo Colonel put his hands together, and the formidable qi sword suddenly appeared again.
Ling Yan was greatly alarmed, he didn't expect that Colonel Zuo's Qi Sword would be able to appear all the time, as if it would not consume his internal qi at all.
At this time, Colonel Zuo suddenly stared at Ling Yan and sneered.
Colonel Zuo suddenly sneered, Ling Yan knew that something was wrong, when he used to read novels, he would always see this kind of expression when the enemy was attacking and when he was completely sure of victory. And Colonel Zuo suddenly showed this strange expression on his indifferent face, proving that Colonel Zuo was about to make a move!
Out of the instinct of self-preservation, Ling Yan hurriedly stretched out his arm in a panic and shouted at Colonel Zuo: "Wait! ”
Colonel Zuo seemed to be stunned for a moment, and in the middle of this stunned void, Ling Yan hurriedly interjected: "General Zuo!" I know you hate me, but can you tell me why you hate me so much after all? Was it just because I killed those dozens of Yellow Turban soldiers? ”
Ling Yan asked, in fact, he just wanted to delay time, although he didn't know what effect delaying time could play in saving his life, and he didn't have much hope that You Heng or Lu Gong would save his life, but he subconsciously knew that if he could delay for a while, maybe there would be some turnaround, either someone would come to save him, or Colonel Zuo suddenly changed his mind...... Even if none of this was possible, then he would at least be able to live for a few more minutes, which Ling Yan couldn't ask for now.
Colonel Zuo didn't seem to see Ling Yan's thoughts, he stopped, his expression was still hideous, he sneered, and his voice was extremely low: "General Yan...... If you kill dozens of my Yellow Turban soldiers, it is equivalent to killing me! Those dozens of Yellow Turban soldiers are all my beloved, and I don't care if anyone dies, but as long as they are killed, I will take that person's life, and even if one of my soldiers dies, I will kill hundreds of thousands of people to honor my soldiers...... Hmph, and you, General Yan, killed nearly a hundred of my soldiers at once, this kind of hatred, even if you are killed, how can it be calmed! After speaking, Colonel Zuo swung his qi sword, which seemed to be burning with flames, emitting a chilling light, "General Yan...... Killing you won't make me much better, but at least I'll kill you first, and in the end, I'm going to kill everyone, everyone related to you! Come and avenge my soldiers! ”
Colonel Zuo's last few words, he gritted his teeth, and Ling Yan heard that he was going to make a move after saying these few words--this is also a characteristic that Ling Yan found when he was reading novels before--often the last sentence before the enemy wants to make a move, it will seem extraordinarily forceful.
Therefore, Ling Yan hurriedly delayed again, and said, "General Zuo! If I don't kill them then, they will kill my soldiers! Isn't that the same? Well, well, even if my soldiers can't compare to yours, you still have these Yellow Turban soldiers, and I didn't kill them after I captured them! ”
Colonel Zuo smiled even more stunned: "General Yan, you occupy Juye City, and I will never forget my internal qi...... As for you not killing these Yellow Turban soldiers, I also know that you want to use us to fight for you, hehe...... You're really good at it......"
Ling Yan was busy: "General Zuo, you misunderstood!" You don't know me as a person! I'm definitely not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of people! Yes, I want you to help me fight the siege, but at the same time, I'm sincere to you! If you don't believe me, you can ask my men, they can prove it! I was so worried when I found out that you went to attack Jiyin City and Dingtao City alone! Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to your aid! ”
Ling Yan said these words quite quickly, he wanted to finish the words quickly, so as not to take the time to command the qi sword; Moreover, Ling Yan also wanted to use these words to influence Colonel Zuo, and wanted him to understand his hard work-and these words, Ling Yan really did not say nonsense, but also what he thought in his heart.
However, Colonel Zuo didn't seem to be moved at all, not only that, he didn't seem to want to talk to Ling Yan anymore, he sneered, and the qi sword moved backwards again-Ling Yan could completely see that this was Colonel Zuo accumulating strength, and the next action was to swing the sword and slash at him!
Ling Yan was in a hurry for a while, he didn't know what to say, he could only wave his hands indiscriminately: "General Zuo!" Listen to me......"
Before Ling Yan's words were finished, Colonel Zuo swung his qi sword in front of him.
But just at the same time, another internal air wave hit Zuo Colonel's back, Zuo Colonel paused slightly, and the expression on his face became a little painful, so his hand also trembled slightly, and the light of the qi sword, after a slight dimming, brightened again.
Ling Yan knew that Colonel Zuo was about to swing it down again.
However, it was Colonel Zuo who hit the gap of the internal air wave that gave Ling Yan a chance to live.
Ling Yan took advantage of Colonel Zuo's pause, quickly stretched out one hand backwards, grabbed the pistol, and then quickly took it out and pointed it at Colonel Zuo.
In fact, Ling Yan thought of the pistol behind him when Colonel Zuo was just approaching just now, but it seemed that Colonel Zuo's speed was one step faster just now, and it seemed too late to take out the pistol, and Ling Yan was also occupied by fear just now, so he didn't dare to take out his pistol in a panic.
Now, Ling Yan took out his pistol, in fact, it was a last resort, because the last chance for his life was the time difference caused by the pause of Colonel Zuo, but if Ling Yan didn't grasp this time difference well, or if he didn't act at all, then there would be no more chance to live, the only difference was that he died one second earlier and died one second late.
And although Ling Yan reacted quickly to grasp this short opportunity, he still had a concern, which he had from the beginning: he didn't know how fast he could hold the gun, and whether he could fight faster than Zuo Colonel's sword.
In Ling Yan's opinion, it is absolutely impossible for his own to be able to compare with Colonel Zuo's speed, what he imagined was that as soon as his hand reached behind his back, Colonel Zuo's sword would be chopped down, so before he could take out his pistol, he would definitely be split in two by Colonel Zuo, in this way, it was almost the same as waiting for death.
But when Ling Yan was desperate, pulling out his pistol seemed to be his only chance to survive, so he fought desperately, and in less than a second after Colonel Zuo paused, Ling Yan quickly took out his pistol and pointed it at Colonel Zuo.
It can be said that in terms of speed, Ling Yan has won - he doesn't know why Colonel Zuo watched him pull out his pistol and point it at him, maybe it was because he was hit by an internal air wave in his back, and his body was in pain and stopped; Maybe Colonel Zuo remembered Ling Yan's "secret weapon", and in a trance, Ling Yan grabbed the upper hand.
Ling Yan held the gun and aimed at Colonel Zuo, he swallowed hard, his eyes looked at Colonel Zuo deadly, he did not speak, and the hand holding the gun trembled slightly.
Colonel Zuo was stunned in this effort, but Ling Yan took out his pistol, which surprised him very much, which could be seen from his expression, what made Ling Yan feel even more excited was that Colonel Zuo seemed to hesitate and was a little timid, because he stopped, the air sword in his hand also stopped in the air, although the expression on his face was still a little hideous, but more turned into panic.
This point was captured by Ling Yan, so when he was slightly relieved, he was also secretly glad that he felt that there was hope of escape.
However, at the same time, Ling Yan was also extremely nervous and uneasy in his heart, which he did not reveal.
The reason for Ling Yan's nervousness, Zuo Xiao naturally didn't know, and Ling Yan would definitely not let Zuo Xiao see it, because if Zuo Xiao knew, then Ling Yan probably wouldn't have the possibility of threatening Zuo Xiao's bargaining chips and life. And this kind of nervousness was also a very important reason why Ling Yan had not escaped from the pistol before.
The reason for this is that Ling Yan's pistol is not loaded!
Whether you have seen a pistol or not, you know that as long as it is a loaded type of pistol, it must be loaded first before it can be fired one after another, and the general pistol has a bumper, and the pistol can only be loaded and fired when the bumper is pulled down.
The pistol in Ling Yan's hand also has a bumper, but in order to make it convenient for Ling Yan to use and not waste time, he usually pulls the bumper down, saving it at a critical time, and it is too late to pull the bumper. So the pistol that Ling Yan is holding now is safe.
However, his pistol, in order to shoot bullets, must go through the step of loading. But Ling Yan didn't have time to complete this step now, that is to say, against Colonel Zuo's pistol, he actually couldn't shoot bullets at all!
In fact, just talking about loading, only one second is enough, Ling Yan has trained many times before, and he is already familiar with loading, so he is not worried that his loading will make a mistake, one second is enough.
But at this moment, Ling Yan didn't dare to try it easily, because he knew that the less than one second he had finally won made him take out his pistol, adding weight to his life, and if he gave Colonel Zuo another second, maybe his life would disappear immediately!
Ling Yan definitely didn't dare to underestimate Colonel Zuo, he believed that Colonel Zuo's reaction was absolutely first-class, and his judgment ability was also super strong, Ling Yan estimated that even if Colonel Zuo didn't understand the principle of the pistol and couldn't understand Ling Yan's loading action, Colonel Zuo could definitely judge that this gap was definitely a good time to attack, which should definitely not be a problem for Colonel Zuo, who was extremely sensitive to fighting!
Therefore, Ling Yan definitely didn't dare to use his life to joke and test Colonel Zuo's reaction speed, but at the same time, he didn't know what to do, if he only confronted him like this, his "paper tiger" would always be exposed.
However, Ling Yan couldn't think of it that much now, so it would be a while to be able to delay for a while!
Ling Yan saw Colonel Zuo looking at him coldly, his movements seemed to stop, Ling Yan felt that this was the time for him to regain the upper hand, so he slowly stood up, his eyes fixed on Colonel Zuo's eyes.
Colonel Zuo watched Ling Yan slowly stand up, but he didn't make any further movements, but made a move that surprised Ling Yan - he separated his hands, and the qi sword disappeared immediately.
However, even so, Ling Yan didn't dare to be careless, he knew that Zuo Xiao's speed of accumulating internal qi was absolutely first-class, if he wanted to form an air sword again, one second would be enough, so although Zuo Xiao had put away his qi sword now, it didn't mean that Zuo Xiao had given up attacking or resisting!
However, since Ling Yan had already stood up, he felt that he had regained a great disadvantage, at least now that he was standing, if he wanted to run, he could be a little faster.
At this time, Ling Yan still didn't dare to load, just pointed a gun at Colonel Zuo - if he was loaded now, he might be able to do it in time, but Ling Yan really didn't dare to try it at this time.
Ling Yan looked at Colonel Zuo and smiled reluctantly: "General Zuo...... Do you remember this? As he spoke, he shook the gun in his hand slightly.
Colonel Zuo looked at the pistol coldly, but suddenly took a step forward.
Ling Yan was startled, hurriedly took two steps back, and shouted, "General Zuo! If you take one more step, I'll shoot! ”
Colonel Zuo may not understand the meaning of shooting, but he also seems to understand what Ling Yan said is the meaning of sending out a hidden weapon, so he didn't step forward again, but just sneered: "General Yan, do you think that hidden weapon might hurt me?" ”
Ling Yan hadn't completely recovered from the nervousness of Colonel Zuo suddenly stepping forward just now, and he didn't expect Colonel Zuo to dare to walk forward when the pistol was pointed at him. However, since Colonel Zuo asked, Ling Yan naturally pretended to have the upper hand, and smiled slightly: "General Zuo, you should know the power of my secret weapon, although I was not killed by it last time, but your feelings, you yourself will not forget, this time, will you be so lucky?" I can tell you how many more shots I can fire...... A few hidden weapons! Ling Yan was in a hurry and told the truth, but he was not completely false, there were indeed nearly ten bullets in the pistol.
However, the key problem is that the pistol is not loaded, and even if there are 10,000 rounds of ammunition in it, it is useless.
This is exactly what Ling Yan is secretly worried about in his heart, and it is also the reason why he is anxious, but this kind of emotion, he understands that he must not let Zuo Colonel find out, otherwise, his life will be worried!
Although Colonel Zuo can't know the principle of this pistol, if he sees a hint of clues, I'm afraid he can't imagine it, so Ling Yan's slightest panic can't be revealed, and Colonel Zuo must not be allowed to see that something is wrong!
Fortunately, Colonel Zuo didn't seem to see the panic in Ling Yan's heart, but he was cold: "General Yan, you should know that with my internal qi, even if dozens of hidden weapons attack at the same time, they will definitely not hurt me." ”
Maybe Colonel Zuo is talking about ancient hidden weapons, Ling Yan does not doubt this, he believes that with Colonel Zuo's strength, he will definitely be able to withstand the attacks of dozens of hidden weapons, but he also knows that his pistol is definitely not an ancient hidden weapon, but a sophisticated modern weapon, although Colonel Zuo once received a bullet, but if the machine gun is fired, Colonel Zuo may not be able to cope with it!
"Hehe, General Zuo, if you're not afraid of death, let's try it." Ling Yan said with a smile, he knew that instead of telling Colonel Zuo too clearly, it was better to make such a threat more realistic.
Sure enough, Colonel Zuo's expression tightened, but he didn't say anything more, but after a few seconds, he took another step forward.
Ling Yan hurriedly took a step back, and his expression became very stern: "General Zuo! Don't go any further, or I'll shoot! ”
Colonel Zuo stopped and looked at Ling Yan coldly.
Ling Yan knew that if he continued to delay like this, although he could not be killed immediately by Colonel Zuo, he would not live long, and his soldiers and horses were suffering a large number of casualties, so even if they could live, they would definitely be captured alive by Colonel Zuo and the others.
At this time, Ling Yan used his afterglow to see You Heng and Lu Gong behind Colonel Zuo, who were both shot down by Colonel Zuo's Yellow Turban soldiers! Although You Heng still used the internal qi wave to resist this, but after Lu Gong fell off the horse, he had no power to resist!
Ling Yan was taken aback, the sound of fighting behind him also reached his ears, he knew that there might not be much left of his soldiers and horses, if he didn't find a way to escape, there might never be any hope of being able to drag it out!
So, Ling Yan looked at Colonel Zuo and said, "General Zuo, today I fell into your ambush, and the soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses, and you can be regarded as avenging...... I know you're trying to wipe us out, and I know it's hard for our army to escape again, but I can tell you for sure, even if I'm dead today, I'll let you go with me! ”
