Chapter Thirty-Seven: One Step Late
In the rain of arrows, a person's image is a cheetah running wildly, like a rain of arrows constantly falling around him, but can not let his speed slow down a little, the whole person is like a dexterous swift, listening to the noisy gongs and drums in the distance, the anxious figure is even faster speed, the whole person is like a flash, there is an afterimage behind him, and he rushes out at once on the road paved with countless arrows. Cold sweat slid down his cheeks on his head, and the ragged clothes on his real body were completely wet, as if they had just been fished out of the water. Breaking through in the encirclement of countless elite Imperial Forest Army, and not causing death, even if Li Kuan is already a grandmaster-level powerhouse, is not a simple matter.
"Lizhi, wait for the second brother!" Out of the range of arrows, Li Kuan didn't dare to stop for a while, because ordinary soldiers' three-stone strong bows really can't shoot such a distance, but don't forget that there is now a siege weapon on the city wall, this thing is not comparable to that small arrow, all that is shot is a spear, which can shoot a person in two, and can be shot into a bluestone city wall as a ladder, that power is not something that flesh and blood can block, even if Li Kuan's body is super perverted in this world.
Running forward at a rapid pace, Li Kuan threw away the spear in his hand, reached behind his arm, grabbed an arrow that was shot into the muscles on his back, and then twisted his wrist slightly, and broke the arrow shaft into two, and then threw the arrow shaft with tail feathers straight to the ground, and rushed forward without a slight slowdown, behind him, a drop of red blood dripped on the ground like that. It is like red stars, dotted on this bluestone slab.
The sound of gongs and drums. The noisy sound covered the drums in the distance, and the vast Tang Palace completely extinguished the smoke in the distance. And the festive drumbeat never stopped, which confused people's ears, only the faces of the two or three people in the crowd changed slightly, and then quietly left the noisy crowd. Together, they hurried towards the man in the imperial robe who was watching this qiē from a high platform in the distance.
"Your Majesty, where did the war drums come from?" Wei Chigong came to Li Er's side, knelt down on one knee and asked. He was very sure that just now he had heard the sound of war drums, and the drums were beating rapidly, conveying an inexplicable anxiety. It's the drumbeat of a siege, but what is this place? This is Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty! What day is it? Today is the princess of Tang Changle. On the big day of the marriage of His Majesty the favorite princess of the Tang Emperor, who will attack the city at this time? It's just a lot of fun. But the sound of the war drums had already melted into Wei Chigong's bones, and even if he heard the slight sound of war drums in his sleep, he would wake up immediately, so he was sure that he had heard it correctly.
"Your Majesty, where is the battle? I Lao Cheng couldn't wait to go out to fight, but I didn't expect that the old horseman of the eldest grandson Wuji would really have a dream come true, which made me very unhappy, and I wanted to find someone to fight slowly. Cheng Yanjin also stood up at this time. He also heard the drums of war, but it was the words that came out of his mouth. It's just that he didn't see a person behind him looking at him with an inexplicable look, with a trace of anger and a little gratitude.
"Your Majesty, today is the day of great joy for Lizhi and Chong'er. It is not advisable to see blood, so the old minister implored His Majesty to let the old minister take the two generals to catch the attacking enemy. Wait until after today. "The eldest grandson Wuji didn't know when he also came here, he, the father of the groom, should not have come. But today's events are too important, plus he is marrying his niece. There are also not so many taboos. Of course, there is another reason for this, that is, because of the identity of the woman, the princess of a country marries into her own family, and in terms of the relationship between the monarch and the minister, the old guy himself will also come out to greet her. Today's eldest grandson Wuji is wearing a festive robe, with a big red silk fir on his body, coupled with a bright smile on his face, the whole person is like a smiling tiger. His gray hair was tucked into a hat and then covered with a rosewood hairpin.
"That's it, Your Majesty, let's go together, no matter who comes, even if it's thousands of troops, don't even think about breaking through the defense line of our brothers!" Wei Chigong and Cheng Yanjin are both masters who are not afraid of big things, and at this time they patted their chests and shouted for battle.
"Since all of you Aiqing have such thoughts about worrying about me, then I will be sure, you go quickly, just remember to entangle that person, don't kill him, just delay time!" Li Er commanded, in fact, when that person came to the Suzaku Gate, Li Er had already received a secret report and knew who the person who came, so he would order it like this, this order made Yu Chigong and Cheng Yanjin very puzzled, but they also bowed down and agreed, and then the two strong men like the iron tower, both with leopard heads and ringed eyes, both with full faces and beards, and both guys with arms thicker than the thighs of the people next to them, strode in the corridor in the direction where the drum came under the leadership of an old man. Only Li Er, who was sitting on the high platform, looked at the backs of the three of them, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and then his face was unfathomable.
Li Kuan ran extremely fast in this narrow road, his footsteps were not scattered at all, and the wound behind his back was still bleeding blood, but he didn't care about dealing with it, because the melodious place of the silk bamboo was not far ahead, and the drumbeat of the sound was all telling, and everything was going in the worst direction, he was so worried that he couldn't care about anything, and there was only one thought left in his mind at this time, if he didn't want Li Lizhen to marry the eldest grandson Chong. He didn't understand what kind of feelings he had for Li Lizhen, was it more brother and sister affection, or father and daughter feelings? But as long as he thought that Li Lizhen was about to marry into the eldest grandson's family, he was reluctant for a while, as if one of his treasures had been snatched away. He has never felt this kind of feeling, even if his mother ignited the boxing book he was obsessed with, he was not so distressed.
"Stop!" Two men like iron towers, standing in the narrow corridor at this time, blocked the corridor that was only less than a zhang wide. Both of them had strong muscles, and each piece of it looked like an iron lump. They are nearly a foot tall, their arms are thicker than ordinary people's waists, and on their long arms, the meridians are knotted together like tree roots, and their muscles are bulging to reveal their unparalleled strength.
"Get out of the way!" The breakthrough journey of ten days and ten nights has made Li Kuan's figure change greatly, the whole person is much taller than before, and the water and rice have not entered for many days, so his voice has become dry and hoarse. So the two stout men didn't recognize who the person in front of them was at this moment. But they knew that the comer was not good, so when they heard Li Kuan's voice, they were ready, and sure enough, after Li Kuan said those two words, he directly bumped into him like a mad cow running wildly.
"If you want to pass, you must first pass the level of our brothers!" The two strong men also roared at this time, and then pounced, and the three people were like three galloping carriages, and no one refused to give in to each other in this narrow road, and they crashed straight together.
"......Boom" The bodies collided with each other and made a powerful sound, it was almost like two people had collided together, as if two walls had collided at this moment. Wei Chi Gong's swarthy face showed a look of horror at this time, because he felt that the power coming from the opposite side was so huge, like a big mountain, and he was carrying this big mountain at this time, trying to carry this big mountain with his own strength. That unstoppable vigor was so powerful, so heavy, and it was slowly crushed down without hurry.
He wanted to struggle, but he was sad to find that he didn't even have the strength to struggle, because he believed that even for a moment when he slackened, this force would be enough to shoot him out. He never doubted his own judgment, so he put all his mental strength into fighting this force, and only then could he carry it longer. The three of them wrestled in this narrow corridor, and Yu Chigong felt that the power coming from the opposite side was so strong, what kind of person was this? Just one person is so powerful, you must know that he is a grandmaster-level master, and Cheng Yanjin is also a top player who can break through this barrier by only half a step, such two people can't stop this beggar?
Turning his head to look at Cheng Biting Jin on the side, he saw that his appearance was even more unbearable, after all, this Tang Dynasty's No. 1 hob meat had not yet comprehended the realm of the grandmaster at this time, so he could only rely on his own brute strength to resist, and he couldn't do it like this to guide that strength to the ground under him. So at this time, Cheng Yanjin was already gritting his teeth, glaring, and constantly shouting to cheer himself up: "Boy, you bastard, you dare to do something to the old city on the other side, it's really hard wings?" Cheng Yanjin shouted loudly, and he didn't know what came out of his mouth.
Wei Chigong also increased the strength in his hand, he bit his steel teeth, and the whole person shouted: "The tiger is not powerful, you are my sick cat!" Then I saw that he and Cheng Yanjin directly burst out of their whole body strength at that moment, and the clothes on their upper bodies were all broken by the powerful force at this moment, and the knotted muscles were squeezed out in the gaps in the clothes, and the fists of the two of them with four sandbags were directly hammered out. At that moment, the air in front of them exploded with their fists, and there was a thud.
Li Kuan was shocked by the power of the two of them at this moment, and this was also the first time he retreated after walking into this city gate, but in a blink of an eye, he was thundered by the things in front of him, because the two top generals of the Tang Dynasty who joined forces to force him back turned around and ran away after knocking him back.
Li Kuan followed closely behind the two, galloping all the way, after passing through two corridors and turning over two courtyards, he came to the door of Zangyuzhai, but at this time this place was empty, and the previous lively scene was completely gone, and it was obvious that he had left.
