Chapter 243: Half Day (Part II)
A day later, they arrived at Zengming County
But there was no river to work with, so I had to pay for it and switch to land
The mountain road in the county seat, of course, is difficult to walk, and the group came to a remote mountainous area
At this time, the spring is getting stronger, the grass and trees have covered the mountains and forests, the path is narrow, although the steep slope in the distance is not high, but it is a cliff, only small beasts and small snakes and the like, can crawl in it, but people are difficult to walk.
A small stream, flowing gracefully.
This area is usually inaccessible, and only a few hunters hunt in this vicinity.
And at this moment, a group of people lurked in a green shade, monitoring the path.
From the pits dug and the food and water prepared, we knew that they did not come today, and had already determined that there must be prey for them to pass through this path.
Since they did not come on the first day, the birds were accustomed to it, and they still sang clearly, and there was no unusual sound, and the people were lurking in the dug pits, covered with blankets, and covered with vegetation outside, and it was difficult to notice
On this morning, there was movement on the path.
In the distance, the sound of chopping branches and trampling grass could be heard. and the sound of horse-drawn carriages on the path. Observe the locals. Immediately, the signal was carefully given. People around the resting place. Gather quickly.
The carriage appeared. First appeared. It's two swordsmen. They don't need to buy horses. You can use the public waist card. Obtained in the Inn. It can be returned to any post station in the prefecture afterwards. And pay a fee for grain and grass.
The same goes for horse-drawn carriages. This is where the woman and Fang Xin live.
Behind were two more swordsmen. They are due to be on board. No shaving. The face is full of beards. Standing with a knife. His gaze swept over the jungle. Tiger's eye is delayed.
The creek was less than a foot deep. There are also small fish swimming in it. The carriage gradually approached the ambush circle.
Suddenly. An order came from the carriage. The carriage came to a halt.
"What do you command, sir?" Liao Cheng stopped, saw the carriage curtain open, and asked.
Fang Xin said "En", jumped out of the carriage, took a look at the path, and gradually, a sneer appeared
At this time, on the small side slope next to the path, a group of people crawled on the ground, watching the movement.
"Hey, why did you stop? Three hundred steps forward, the crossbow will be useful. ”
Ten crossbows, the arrows have been wound, although it is not the Empire's top secret repeating crossbow, it is not trivial, there is an aiming scale on the fuselage, it can shoot an apple within fifty steps, and within fifty steps, it can shoot through ordinary iron armor!
If within thirty paces, ten crossbows and bows fired a precise salvo, even if it was a grandmaster, they would be hated on the spot, and if they didn't die, they would be seriously injured and lose most of their combat effectiveness.
But one hundred and fifty paces away, this crossbow was just an ornament, and it had no effect on the grandmaster.
"Don't talk, let's wait, once we enter, shoot ten crossbows in a row, don't shoot those four people, just shoot the carriage, if you are outside the carriage, shoot one person surnamed Lin, as long as you kill him, the rest of the people will not be in trouble!" At this moment, the swordsman at the head gave an order in a low voice.
In the back, the core is fifteen people, and then there are about twenty people, all waiting in silence.
"The jungle here is dense, the path is deep and secluded, it's not a good place, let's eat some Chinese food and then go!" Fang Xin showered in the spring light, squinting and smiling.
"Yes, sir!" Although it is still early to eat Chinese food, since it is Fang Xin's order, naturally everyone should be.
From the ground, a mat was laid out, and a small bench was set up, and Fang Xin and Xiao Anning were invited to sit.
On the dock, I bought food boxes early, opened them one by one, and brought out fried tofu, braised carp, and beef.
This beef is the most special, you know, in ancient times, it was forbidden to kill cattle, unless the old cattle were slaughtered with the approval of the government, and this beef is of course relatively rare.
Maybe the official family, eating this beef is not uncommon, but it depends on luck to buy it in the dock county.
Ancient cooking was relatively simple, but the taste was not bad and it was very delicious.
Although it was a little colder, the rice balls were served with these dishes, and they were quite good halfway through the journey.
As for the other swordsmen and Rokutake, the rice balls with jerky are already good.
Everyone eats with Fang Xin, naturally they are very particular about the etiquette of the upper and lower levels, and each swordsman is trying to chew slowly and slowly, without making an obvious sound - the lower person eats and makes a noise to the upper person, strictly speaking, it is a loss of etiquette.
Although Chinese food is quiet, eating in the spring is also an elegant thing.
Spring, in the sunshine, but also in life.
In the distance, many kinds of wildflowers bloom, and the land is full of life, if not dazzling, butterflies and bees, fluttering on the flowers, and occasionally a breeze blows, with the unique smell of spring, like the sea, which is really fascinating.
Fang Xin seriously accepted and appreciated these breaths.
Spring is full of infiltration, and before you know it, it is impregnated with life.
"Good rain knows the season, when spring happens. Dive into the night with the wind, moisturizing things silently! "This is the spring rain sword, but admiring the spring tide, you know that this spring is more in the silence that permeates all things.
Of course, this is silent, and it is also the nature of heaven and earth, whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter.
There is a green in front of me - new green, tender green, bright green, emerald green, clothed with softness
Light, if Fang Xin has gained, if he has realized, he is thinking
In the past, the predecessors of Sword Garden must have comprehended it like this, rejoiced, and accepted it.
Liuzhu was also very happy, she combed her double bun, served Mr. and Miss, and then ate herself, Xiao Anning was dressed in green, she was already fifteen years old, her eyes were looking forward to it, the autumn water was full, seeing this spring, she said a few words, and her crisp voice also carried a kind of joy.
"The flowers are getting more and more charming, and the asakusa can have no horseshoe!" Fang Xin made a copy of the text and said.
"Well, father, the principle of nature, when the winter goes to the winter, the leaves fall away, and when the spring comes, the branches and leaves are pulled, which is full of life and nature." Xiao Anning said.
The Four Seasons Sword Technique is not as good as the Xiao family in terms of the sword technique itself, but in terms of artistic conception and sword energy, it has a different world.
After all, in the main world, the sword qi is only displayed at the fifth order, so the sword technique below the fifth order is the sword technique itself.
And in this world, the fourth-order grandmaster has sword qi, and it will not appear in the realm, and the sword technique and sword qi complement each other well, and even she has learned a lot.
Xiao Anning himself is proficient in swordsmanship, and the essentials of swordsmanship are even more profound, and the swordsmanship of the four seasons can be regarded as refined and pure after two years, so to speak, it has entered the world's first-class realm.
Now that the rules of this world are weak, she has also begun to comprehend the sword qi, and she has also realized this spring.
Talking and laughing, this meal was eaten for an hour
These people were at ease, while the people who were waiting there were all anxious
You must know that people have to concentrate on preparing for battle, which is an extremely energy-consuming thing
Finally, the mat was put away, and it seemed that it was ready to leave, and the people in ambush breathed a sigh of relief, Fang Xin gave a few orders, and saw that the people who followed him had already digested it, so he said with a smile: "Everyone, I've waited long enough, hard work!" ”
As soon as he said this, all of a sudden, the people in ambush were taken aback, at first, they still didn't move, but when they saw Fang Xin pick up the sword, he walked specifically on the dead end, which immediately made people understand that they had indeed been discovered.
"Kill!" Knowing that he had been exposed, the swordsman pounced violently, and the rest of the people followed, only the person with ten crossbows did not step forward, and the crossbow in his hand was faintly aimed at Fang Xin.
Figures appeared one after another, a total of twenty warriors appeared, and the swordsmen behind couldn't help but be shocked.
At this moment, Fang Xin's speed increased sharply, and the figure loomed, in and out of the grass, unable to aim at all, as soon as this situation appeared, the swordsman shouted: "Let's go together, don't give him a chance to separate, kill!" ”
The eldest brother gave an order, and everyone rushed forward.
Faced with such a situation, the crossbow is only afraid that it will shoot its own people.
The two teams collided, between the stones and the grass, and began to fight.
Fang Xin's figure was as agile as a bobcat, and with a flash of sword light, the first person to rush up rolled down.
"Surround the ......" is the first swordsman's long knife, although there is no real knife energy, but it also has an awe-inspiring meaning.
"Kill!" The swordsman in the back stabbed out violently, and a trace of sword qi loomed.
Both of them are masters who have one foot on the grandmaster.
Fang Xin was not afraid at all, his figure fluttered, his sword light flashed, like a spring silkworm spinning silk, not only out of the encirclement, but also clinging to the enemy's periphery, not giving them time to adjust at all.
Compared to the last time he killed Xue Yuzhen, Fang Xin's martial arts were on a higher level.
In the last battle, although Fang Xin lifted his weight lightly, hit the void and avoided the real, and killed people in an instant, he still had to get out of a distance, which not only gave him a chance to adjust, but also gave the enemy a chance to adjust.
But now, if it is close to the perimeter of the encirclement, it is a very subtle strangulation technique.
The battle itself has the ups and downs of power, one prosperity and two declines, and there are flaws, which is something that even grandmasters can hardly avoid.
"Zheng!" Seizing the opportunity, the sword light passed, and at a glance, two people slammed into the sword and fell to the ground.
"Sixth sister, seventh brother!" Someone screamed in the back.
As soon as the person was in chaos, it was sword light, and one person rushed halfway, his upper body stood up, and he fell to the ground.
Fang Xin killed this person, but the figure flashed and flew backwards.
At that moment, ten crossbow arrows came, like streamers, and fell to the ground and plunged into the ground.
It turned out that before I knew it, I was already within fifty paces of the crossbow.
This blow was futile, and everyone changed color
People on both sides, by the same token, stopped
Ten meters away, the grass was already a mess, and the corners were filled with murderous and bloody.
In the battle just now, eight people have been killed, and two of them are relatively key elements
The crossbow was ineffective, and the ten men gritted their teeth, put them down, drew their swords, and joined the people below
Twenty-six, against seven
"The eldest brother, the sixth sister and the seventh brother are dead." The person who checked in the back said with a sad voice.
The swordsman gritted his teeth, raised his knife, and said: "At this point, kill it, this time you can't retreat, either we are all dead, or he is dead." ”
Speaking of this, the tone turned fierce. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to idiancomm, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
