Chapter 001: Strong Man

In July, on the north bank of Puchanghai (Lop Nur), at the mouth of the Chihe River (Peacock River).

Li Zaixing lightly lifted the reins, and Teller Biao stopped his steps, snorted, and flicked his tail, with a hint of excitement.

As soon as I came out of Yumen Pass, smelling the dry and cold wind in the northwest, it was like returning to my familiar hometown, full of energy. If Li Zaixing beats and knocks from time to time, it can be more peaceful. Although it was born noble, it had been away from the battlefield for too long, and some good habits had been forgotten and needed to be reminded by Li Zaixing from time to time.

A real war horse, like a real warrior, must remain calm no matter what kind of environment he faces, and will not be disturbed by external factors. Only in this way will there be no misjudgment and no mistakes.

The hot and dry wind blew through a few Huyang trees on the shore, rustling the golden leaves.

Li Zaixing glanced into the distance and glanced at Al Maddie. Al Maddie understood, pointed to the distance with his hand, lightly kicked the horse's belly, and ran out first. Li Zaixing immediately shook the reins of his horse and galloped in another direction. They separated from each other and circled in a circle, as if a horse race had suddenly arose. However, after running for more than 300 steps, they suddenly turned back and ran towards the poplar tree from two directions.

At the same time, Al Maidi drew out the dragon spear hanging from the horsewhip, held the spear in both hands, and sat on the saddle with half a stirrup on his toes, leaning forward slightly, in the posture of charging with a gun. What's even more surprising is that her face is cold and murderous, as if she sees an enemy of life and death.

Li Zaixing didn't take the gun, he picked up a lacquer bow, put on a carved feather, and drew the bow to be ready to fire.

This lacquered bow is no ordinary bow. This is the relic of the famous general Wang Zhonghe, which was transferred to Li Zaixing by the prince through Li Mi. This bow has a bow power of one hundred and fifty catties and a range of two hundred paces. Li Zaixing learned Nan Jiyun's archery skills, and he has been practicing every day in the past few months, and he doesn't dare to say that he is like Nan Jiyun who wears Yang in a hundred steps, but along the way, there are not a few small animals sacrificed under his arrows. About 100 steps, 9 out of 10 shots, if you shoot people, it can be said that you can shoot 100 shots.

The reason for such an achievement is inseparable from his actual martial arts foundation, and it is inseparable from Nan Jiyun's pointing, which is of course inseparable from his diligent practice. Anything is serious. As long as you are serious and the method is right, you can achieve achievements that are difficult for others to achieve.

This is Li Zaixing's motto.

Seeing Al Maidi charging with a gun, Li Zaixing pulled his bow and wanted to shoot, and Pei Xuanqing, Zhang Wan and others who were traveling with him were puzzled. They looked at each other, and without thinking, they pulled out the horizontal knife at their waists, and took contingency measures to protect Du Fu, Ah Duan's master and servant, and the baggage behind them. After walking with Li Zaixing for more than a month, they knew that Li Zaixing would not be so vigilant easily.

Al Madima went under the tree, and with a coquettish shout, the dragon spear stabbed out.

A figure jumped down from the tree, leaned back to the trunk, raised his hands, and shouted something out loud.

"Damn!" Pei Xuanqing scolded, "Bai Xiaode? ”

Zhang Wan was also taken aback: "This product actually came here?" ”

As one of the seven white-clothed people who protected Li Linfu, after Li Linfu and Yang Wei were killed successively, Bai Xiaode became a fugitive. When Li Zaixing left Chang'an, he appeared once, took a picture with Li Zaixing from afar, and left. Pei Xuanqing and others always thought that he was also going back to Anxi, but they just happened to be with him, but they didn't expect him to follow him all the time.

Pei Xuanqing looked around and secretly wiped a cold sweat, this is not a pass, there is no grass in many places, and it is not easy to hide the traces. This Hu man has actually tracked all the way to this point, and he is worthy of being a warrior in the Anxi army. If it weren't for Li Zaixing and Al Maidi's vigilance, only them, they might have been ruined in the hands of Bai Xiaode long ago.

Ermadi reined in the horse and circled around Bai Xiaode, but the head of the gun kept pointing at Bai Xiaode's chest, trembling. Bai Xiaode didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of being misunderstood by Al Maddie, and stabbed him with a shot.

Li Zaixing lightly urged the war horse, walked over, looked at Bai Xiaode, and chuckled: "Does your knee hurt?" ”

Bai Xiaode's face changed greatly, hesitated for a moment, and said gloomily: "It hurts!" ”

"Looks like you're hardworking." Li Zaixing gave Elmadi a look, and Elmadi withdrew his gun and took two steps back, keeping his guard. Li Zaixing put away his bow and arrows, pondered for a moment, and said: "For the sake of you being a warrior, I will give you a choice, I will tell you the way to save you, you will leave, don't follow me anymore, you gave your life in vain." ”

Bai Xiaode breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense body relaxed. He followed Li Zaixing all the way, always thinking that Li Zaixing didn't find him. Along the way, Li Zaixing and Al Medi practiced martial arts, and he watched from a distance, secretly learning, wanting to practice martial arts and then come to Li Zaixing for revenge. Unexpectedly, after practicing for more than half a month, he found a problem, his two knees were inexplicably swollen, more and more painful, and gradually there was a tendency to not be able to walk.

This frightened him, and he thought that he had some strange disease, or that he had been punished for stealing his art. Now that he heard Li Zaixing say this, he knew that it was the reason for secretly learning Li Zaixing's martial arts.

"You already knew?"

"Of course I do." The corners of Li Zaixing's mouth twitched: "I also covered you with a quilt twice." You don't sleep honestly. ”

Bai Xiaode's face suddenly turned red, and he said curtly: "You...... Why don't you kill me? ”

"Each is his own master, and there is no deep hatred between us." Li Zaixing said lightly: "You are acting on orders to protect Li Linfu, and I am forced to kill Li Linfu and Yang Huan by the situation." Now that it's over, why kill you again? His face sank: "However, if you don't know how to advance and retreat, and you still want to follow me, don't blame me for turning my face." ”

Bai Xiaode thought for a while, raised his head, and looked at Li Zaixing: "Then can I follow you?" ”

"What are you doing with me?"

"Learn a gun from you, and I will defeat you in the future."

Li Zaixing laughed and shrugged his shoulders: "I advise you, you don't have a chance at all, you don't have to think about it." ”

"I'd like to give it a try." Bai Xiaode insisted.

"Tell me, then, what's in it for me?" Li Zaixing lay on the saddle and looked at Bai Xiaode playfully.

"I came from the Anxi army and am very familiar with Anxi." Bai Xiaode licked his chapped lips and said: "I know a variety of nonsense, I am familiar with the terrain of Anxi, and I am proficient in the way of lurking......" Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered what Li Zaixing pounced on him several times but didn't know, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Li Zaixing didn't say anything more, and nodded briskly: "Okay, I'll accept you." ”

"Really?" Bai Xiaode was overjoyed and couldn't believe his ears.

"Really." Li Zaixing nodded and threw the reins of the horse over: "Since you want to be my entourage, let's start now." ”

"Okay." Bai Xiaode didn't say a word, took the reins, took Tellebi, and walked towards Pei Xuanqing and the others.

Seeing this scene, Pei Xuanqing and the others couldn't cry or laugh. Leaving such a dangerous person by his side, Li Zaixing is not afraid of his backlash? Facing the worried eyes of Pei Xuanqing and others, Li Zaixing waved his hand, signaling that he had a sense of proportion. Pei Xuanqing and the others didn't say it anymore, but they just looked at Bai Xiaode vigilantly.

"Get ready to set up camp." Li Zaixing said: "Twenty-two Lang, take a horse out, his knee is injured and he can't walk anymore." Otherwise, his leg would be useless. When he got to the military camp in front, he bought a horse for him to travel. ”

Pei Xuanqing was puzzled, but he didn't ask more, and responded happily. With a command, the two rangers rode out on horseback to collect the dry firewood for the fire, and the two went to the surrounding area to inquire about the situation to see if there was any situation. Li Zaixing went to Anxi to make contributions, Pei Xuanqing accompanied him on the orders of Mrs. Qiuguo, and Zhang Wan and a dozen other rangers also wanted to follow him to Anxi to try their luck.

Li Zaixing asked Bai Xiaode to sit down, untied his leggings, and rolled up his pants. When he saw the two swollen knees, he couldn't help but be a little surprised. He glanced at Bai Xiaode: "It seems that you want to kill me very much." ”

Bai Xiaode nodded, and turned his gaze to Al Maidi: "The person she killed is my fellow brother. ”

Li Zaixing nodded understandingly, and asked Al Maidi to bring the ointment and wipe it on Bai Xiaode's knee with his own hands. While wiping, he said: "If you want revenge, come at me, if you dare to hurt her a single hair, even if you chase her to the cape of Tianya, I will also kill you." ”

As soon as the ointment touched his skin, Bai Xiaode felt a trace of coolness, and his hot knees suddenly felt a lot more comfortable. He nodded in agreement and said, "Why does my knee hurt?" Did you deliberately set me up? ”

"I taught you right, the problem is that you practice too hard." Li Zaixing said calmly: "The foundation is not solid, the muscles and bones are not solid, and you only have the shape, but not the reality, the strength is all on the knee, of course you will be injured." ”

"What should be the correct practice?"

Li Zaixing paused, raised his head, and looked at Bai Xiaode with a smile: "When I taught her to practice, did you notice where my hands often put on her?" ”

Bai Xiaode thought about it carefully, and suddenly understood: "In the waist? ”

"At the waist and hips." Li Zaixing smiled: "The waist and hip tendons are thick and can withstand grinding, and the knee tendons are thin, so you can't use too much force." ”

Bai Xiaode slapped his head and was frustrated: "It turns out that the trick is here, I thought it was ......"

Al Maddie blushed and took a sip: "If you don't want to die, shut up!" ”

Bai Xiaode hurriedly stopped. Li Zaixing finished wiping the medicine, stuffed the medicine box into Bai Xiaode's hand, and blinked: "What do you have to say, can you say it now?" ”

Bai Xiaode thought for a moment, raised his head, and looked at Li Zaixing seriously: "You should know that Zhongcheng can have today, of course, it is his own ability to earn it." But if it weren't for Li Xiang, he wouldn't have been able to reach this high position. When you come to Anxi, he will definitely not greet him with a smile, and he will have to give a dismount. ”。

The battle is about to begin, ask for favorites, ask for recommendations!.
