Chapter 8: The Mystery of the Pupil

The rangers of the Savages followed behind, haunted and disturbed.

After walking for a while, Yue Shi couldn't hold back the sullenness in his heart, and when he was camping, he asked Jia Ye and him to go to the river to get water, and when they came to the riverside, they walked north along the riverside.

Only then did Kaye know that his fetching of water was just an excuse, and that he had brought him out to use the Moon Bow to snipe the rangers of the Varbarians.

The Savages are good at riding and shooting, and when scouting in groups of several people, there is no other way than to use the ultra-long range of the Hazy Moon Bow to snipe.

Yue Shi said: "You lend me the Haoyue Bow, fetch water and go back to the camp first, and tell others that I will return later." ”

Kaye said, "I'll go with you." ”

Yue Shi's face was happy, and he didn't feel that Jiaye was cumbersome, and he sneaked north under the cover of the riverside terrain, and walked in the depths along a dry ditch, and by the moonlight, he could faintly see three or five wild rangers who were hesitating on the mountains near and far.

Ka Ye took off the bow sac, held down the bracket, and folded the bow arm to form a four-foot-long bow in an instant. Yue Shi took the bow and couldn't help but be overjoyed, so that Jia Ye was secretly frightened: If he doesn't return the moon bow to me, what if it's good?

Yue Shi naturally didn't see the worry in Jia Ye's eyes, lightly controlled the bowstring, felt the strong reverberation of the bowstring, sighed softly in his mouth, took out a feather arrow and put it on the string, pointed to the mountain, pulled the bowstring, and when he took it off, he felt a huge force surge, and his arm was slightly numb.

The arrow feather made the bowstring force shake slightly, and the feather arrow shot at a mountain rock, with a sonorous sound, and half of the feather arrow was submerged in the mountain rock, and the arrow feather still trembled sharply and started a buzzing sound.

The sentinel on the top of the mountain noticed the abnormality here, took out the horn in his arms, and whined. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen Hu horsemen poured out from the top of the mountain, and they all turned their horses and galloped towards this direction.

Yue Shi didn't dare to look at the teasing look on Jia Ye's face, so he spat it fiercely and said, "This bow is too hard to adapt to for a while." Another string shot an arrow, when the feather arrow was off the string, it still made the return force vibrate, the feather arrow did not enter the light moonlight, and it was nowhere to be found, but it was the sharp sound of piercing the air that made the Hu cavalry who rushed down startled.

More than a dozen horsemen reined in the horses, instantly understood what was going on, laughed, drew their longbows, and galloped here.

Looking at the rapidly approaching shadows under the moon, it was too late to escape.

Kasa regretted it in his heart. Along the way, Yue Shi pestered him to borrow the moon bow, but he was determined not to borrow it. If you had lent it to him, you would have seen his terrible marksmanship, and you would not have come here with him to take risks.

Squinting at Yueshi's hand stretched out to his waist, but instead of drawing the feather arrow, he took the saber in his hand, only when he was going to flee alone, Ka Ye didn't feel sad in his heart, grabbed the Hazy Moon Bow, snatched it, and turned to untie the quiver on his waist.

Yue Shi pushed him and said, "You take the bow and go first, I'll block it here for a while." ”

Jia Ye Nen's face flushed, and he understood that he had misunderstood Yue Shi, and said, "If you can't rush to a close place to fight, how can a knife block twenty strong bows?" ”

Yue Shi only saw that he was holding the Haoyue Bow in his left hand, and put the slightly bow and thirty-four feather arrows neatly on the moat in front of him, and his childish face was calm and calm, and there was no fear of the current enemy.

Yue Shi said angrily: "You go back and report the news." ”

"Life and death are only a moment, then you can wait for reinforcements."

Jia Ye only felt that expecting reinforcements was the most stupid thought, picked up an arrow, brought it to his mouth, gently licked the feather at the end of the arrow, and peeked at Hu Qi to three hundred steps away, and shot the string, and the blue-gray arrow feather crossed a floating shadow in the space, and submerged into the chest of the current Hu Qi.

More than a dozen Hu horsemen suddenly spread out in formation, formed a fan, and surrounded the generals.

Yue Shi held his sword in front of Ka Ye's side, leaving only a gap for archery.

Jiaye shot two more arrows in succession, and the two Hu cavalry fell in response.

Yue Shi saw his amazing archery skills for the first time, and shouted loudly: "Shoot well, shoot another fucking one." I didn't see the feather arrow shoot, and when I turned my head, I saw that Ka Ye was panting against the moat, and his right arm hung weakly at his side, and the blood soaked through the sleeve.

Yue Shi only remembered the words of the old man in green shirt at this time: "If you forcibly open the bow again, your right arm will be useless." ”

"Peng Pengpeng" three sharp arrows shot, Yue Shi horizontal knife roll, knife strength will feather arrows into pieces, the feeling let these dozen Hu cavalry line up arrow array to surround together, must not be well guarded, Jia Ye's right arm is injured, inconvenient to dodge, a negligence will be in vain. Yue Shi hated it in his heart, knowing that he was dragging him down this time, he just wanted to go up and fight, shouted loudly, and jumped out of the trench, but he heard "flutter", but it was the hem of his shirt that made Jiaye tear apart.

Jia Ye endured the great pain in his arm and said, "I can shoot a bow with my left hand, you stay here and block the enemy's arrows for me, we still have a way to live." ”

The Hu people selected the elite of the clan as the sentinel, coordinated with each other tacitly, and the archery skills were both tricky, strong and sufficient, riding a horse and maneuvering with themselves, and Yue Shi was not confident that he could retreat with his whole body.

Five sharp arrows were shot together, and Yue Shi slashed out seven knives without a trace, and launched a wall of qi in front of him, "Ding Ding Ding" sounded several times in a row, blocking five sharp arrows.

Ka Ye said: "This is very good, but the Hu people have thousands of arrows, how many times can you withstand them?" ”

Yue Shi remembered the white-haired old man's exquisite knife technique in the stone gorge, and each knife intercepted a sharp arrow just right, without wasting a little strength. With his profound cultivation, it would not be a big problem for the group of turtles in front of him to shoot and save.

Yue Shi said: "There is no problem in supporting him seventeen or eighteen times, but the Hu people are closer, and the strength of the arrows is greater, within fifty steps, more than a dozen bows are shot together, you and I are only afraid of being shot into hedgehogs." ”

Ka Ye ripped off the sleeve of his right arm and pierced it above the elbow, but when he saw that his brows were frowning and the pain was unbearable, he grinned sharply.

With his left hand on the strings, but with the bow in his right hand, Yue Shi asked, "Can you do it?" ”

"It's not the first time I've injured my right arm." With the arrow in hand, but forgetting the great pain in his right arm, Ka Ye held his breath and concentrated, pulled away the slight bow of Ershili with his left hand, and shot at a Hu cavalry who rushed down the steep slope on the left hand side.

Although the slightly bow belongs to the list of strong bows, but the rate of fire is far from being comparable to the Haoyue bow, the man peeped at the arrow, and opened the horizontal bow, but he was frightened into a cold sweat, and hurriedly pulled the reins and retreated. Kaye fired five arrows in a row, forcing four people back and injuring one, but the injury on his right arm was even more serious, and blood was dripping down.

Jiaye's archery skills are wonderful, Hu Qi does not dare to approach, and shoots at a distance, and the strength of the feather arrow is also weak, and there is no threat to Yue Shi. After a moment of confrontation, there were several Hu horsemen who took arrows to shoot Jiaye, forcing Yue Shi to protect him and not dare to leave a little in front of him, and the shooting angle made Yue Shi block a lot, so several Hu people dismounted and approached from the dead corner by taking advantage of the terrain, and shot Yue Shi with a strong bow.

Yue Shi couldn't move and dodge, he could only use his sword to block all the feather arrows that came from him, and his hands and feet were like being bound, and he couldn't exert his full strength, and he only felt sullen in his heart. Taking advantage of the terrain, the six Hu people took turns to shoot arrows in a very short time, Yue Shi took every arrow, and couldn't wait to melt the qi that invaded the body, and the next arrow came one after another, and the feeling of soreness and numbness accumulated on the arm was one point heavier, and the blood and qi in the body were churning, extremely uncomfortable, and secretly said: Do you want to grind these six Hu people to death today?

The mind was a little slack, the knife in his hand stagnated slightly, and an arrow broke through, Yue Shi was shocked, and was about to get out of the way, but he remembered that Jia Ye was behind him, and he froze his body, only to feel a pain in his left arm, and the iron arrow had shot the elbow of his left arm through.

The Yue Shi wheel knife sharpened the tail rod of the arrow outside the exposed arm, and the luck shook out half of the iron-edged arrow.

Kaye said: "I don't need you to protect it so tightly, if you miss an arrow or two, I will avoid it." ”

Yue Shi said: "You didn't say it earlier. ”

Ka Ye smiled and said, "If you don't say it, you don't know?" ”

Yue Shi was furious, but he couldn't look back at him when he was in front of Jiaye, so he felt that it was useless to be angry, but he made the knife in his hand mighty, and suddenly the wind and thunder were combined, and the enemy's sharp arrows were blown to the ground before they were close to him.

Jia Ye was surprised, I don't know why Yue Shi took the surname for no reason, looked up, but saw the three people rushing down the mountain on horseback, opening the bow and leading the string, and attacking behind the Hu people. Hu Cai, who was halfway up the mountain, didn't notice it at first, and immediately shot down a few people, and the formation was chaotic, and the rest of the people pulled their horses' heads one after another and avoided the slopes on both sides.

However, it was Yue Shi who saw Jiang Yi, Yue Qinglong, and Jiang Sheng coming to help, but they just wanted to protect Jia Ye and couldn't go up to fight and were angry.

Jiang Yi, Yue Qinglong, and Jiang Sheng rushed to the bottom of the mountain in an instant, and Yue Qinglong jumped off his horse and said, "Childe, you and Jia Ye will retreat first, and we will come later." ”

Yue Shi opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, melted away the depression in his chest, turned his head to stare at Jia Ye, and said hatefully: "In the end, the opportunity to come forward and fight is gone." He picked up the bow of the moon, jumped on his horse, leaned over and scooped up Kaba's thin body, and placed it horizontally in front of him.

When Kaya saw that he was a child, he was angry and said, "Let me go down." "Stretched out his hand and pushed, his right arm hurt greatly, his hand loosened, and he fell to the ground with a slight bow.

Yue Shi ignored him, took an arrow from the quiver on the side of the saddle, put it on the bow of the hazy moon, pointed the string to the left steep slope, and shot it away, by a fraction of a second, and the feathered arrow with the sound of wind and thunder pressed against the cheek of a Hu horseman.

Jia Ye laughed out loud, and when he saw Yue Shi glaring angrily, he said, "One hundred and fifty steps." ”

"It's just an inch."

"You're aiming at someone else."

Behind the mountain, dozens of sentry posts of wild men rushed down, presumably brought by Jiang Yi along the way. Yue Shi didn't dare to fight with Jia Ye anymore, and crossed the blood to seal the blood of his right arm.

The bleeding from his right arm immediately stopped, but the pain did not abate a little, and as soon as the tense nerves relaxed slightly, Kaye fainted.

Yue Shi felt a pain in his heart, almost burst into tears, and said to Yue Qinglong: "I'll take the first step, you guys be careful." "Tyler took the reins, pulled the horse's head, and galloped down the ravine to the shores of the weak waters.

Hearing the sound of weak water like a roar of thunder, Jia Ye woke up quietly, struggled to stick his head out of Yue Shi's arms, and saw the old man in green shirt holding Yan Ran's hand Zhuo standing on the shore. From such a distance, Ka Ye clearly felt that the old man was watching him. The moonlight is like water, and there is a very faint haze between the sky and the earth, making the distant mountains ethereal.

The sword monarch who made the barbarians fearful stood facing the weak water, the river wind blew the snow frenziedly, and the tall and sturdy figure seemed to dissolve into the mountains and rivers, giving people a sense of solemnity and majesty.

Yue Shi gently pulled the reins, let the horse slow down, and looked at the back of Dao Jun Yuan Ting Yuezhi, with a slight fear in his expression.

Dao Jun slowly turned around, revealing the face without the slightest wrinkle under the snow silk, flying diagonally under the long eyebrows of the temples, a pair of starry eyes flashed with a cold and merciless light, with a calm that no one could shake.

The horse finally walked to the shore, Yue Shi turned over and dismounted, hugged the handicapped Jia Ye, glanced at Dao Jun, walked straight to the old man in green shirt, knelt on his knees, and said: "Yue Shi has caused trouble, involving Jia Ye, and regrets it in my heart." Is there any hope of healing for Kasya's right arm? ”

Dao Jun stepped forward and grabbed Jiaye's right arm, and crossed a slightly cool pill breath as thin as a gossamer into Jiaye's arm, Gujing Wubo's face showed a surprised look for the first time, and said: "Last time, the meridians of the right arm were only broken, but this time they were completely shattered, you knew that the consequences were serious, and you still forcibly opened the Hazy Moon Bow?" ”

The lethality of the slight bow is limited, if you don't use the Hazy Moon Bow to deter the barbarians, those twenty Hu cavalry can rush in front of you in an instant, between saving your life and saving your right arm, is there a choice?

Jia Ye did not complain about Yue Shi, shot seven people, only abolished one right arm, which was considered a big advantage, and said to Yue Shi: "There is also a good left hand, it doesn't matter......" What else to say, is meeting the eyes of the old man in green shirts, stunned.

There was a smile in the clear eyes of the old man in the green shirt, as if there was endless vitality rippling in the deep pupils, as if it was the water waves that crushed the stars, and the sea of inner knowledge of the Ka Ye also shook, and the circle of endless slim places rippled away, the towering white mountains rose, and the burning Liudan clouds flowed on the top of the white mountains, under the white mountains, the verdant peacock river, and the quicksand land as white as snow. I don't know how long it took, and the glorious Daxi Prefecture suddenly passed in the Sea of Knowledge.

Jiaye woke up slowly, opened his eyes and looked around, there was no majestic white mountain, no flowing Dan clouds, no verdant peacock river, no white as snow quicksand, stunned, fell to the ground, closed his eyes sadly.

"Idiot."

The sound was like a Sanskrit sound running through the lake of his heart, and when he opened his eyes, he saw those clear eyes again, and the sea of Knowledge, which had been dimmed by great disappointment, was brightened a little by the gaze of these eyes. Ka Ye did not know the Dan Breath Technique, so naturally he did not know what the Sea of Knowledge was, but he felt that his chest was full of great light, and the light that was about to overflow immersed his body and mind in a joy like a new life.

"The depths of the Tao are full of life, and the mirror glimpses the self is great freedom. I leave a seed in your heart, if you can find this seed, you can come to Zhongzhou to find me. ”

"If there is a seed in the heart, why should you treat others?"

The old man in the green shirt laughed out loud and said, "Idiot, idiot......" He didn't explain more, but said, "This place is out of the control of the barbarians, I know that you don't want to follow me into Zhangye, so you might as well leave it alone." ”

Jia Ye noticed that he was no longer on the shore of the weak water river, and the majestic Qilian Mountain was at the limit of his vision, ah, he was so close to Zhangye, the white-haired Daojun, Yue Shi, Jiang Yi, Yan Ran and others stood beside him, and his right arm was still in pain, but he could bear it.

"Where is this?"

"Just past Onoguchi." Yue Shi smiled, "After you passed out, we went south for two days. ”

Jia Ye only felt that he had been immersed in the eyes of the old man in green shirt for the past two days, and he did not feel fainted due to the pain. I didn't bother to explain, because of that mysterious feeling, I vaguely felt that there was a possibility of recovery in my right arm, and Jia Ye's expression perked up, and said: "Disturb each other all the way, Jia Ye will say goodbye." ”

Yue Shi said: "Your right arm is not healed, and you only have to flee from the desert when you meet a horse thief on the road, it just so happens that I want to travel to Xizhou, why don't you come and be my guide, and when your arm injury is healed, I will also go back to Zhongzhou, what do you think?" ”

Ka Ye looked at Jiang Yi with some hesitation on his face.

Yue Shi twisted his head to look at Jiang Yi and asked, "Qilang, what do you think?" ”

Jiang Yi said: "It's better to go to Zhangye for a short rest before going on the road." ”

Along the way, everyone didn't tell the name of the old man in the green shirt, not that Yue Shi didn't understand in his heart, Jiang Yi wanted to go to Zhangye with the old man in the green shirt, of course he had a plan. Daojun was indifferent to everyone, but the old man in the green shirt was very easy to get along with, and he did not forget to mention their martial arts along the way, in just a few days, Yue Shi had already felt that he had benefited a lot, if it were not for the fact that Jia Ye was too dangerous on the road, Yue Shi would have been eager to go back to Zhongzhou with the old man in the green shirt.

Yue Shi was displeased, and he didn't hide it, and said: "Since Qilang wants to go to Zhangye first, he doesn't agree with me, so don't pass it away." ”

Jia Ye didn't like Jiang Yi in his heart, and felt that it was good for Yue Shi to separate from him, and his face showed joy.
