164 Burning the Vine Armor Army

There is no way back, only a war.

How to fight? Fight to the death. Fighting to the death may actually be to die in battle and become a martyr.

It is very possible to become a martyr, if they are dead, and Guan Yun can find their bodies, it is not strange to be a martyr.

Liu Shuya was forced into a corner, and there was no way to retreat.

As soon as he fled to the bottom of the cliff at the end of the underground canyon, the two "generals" in the water flew up, raised their long knives, and rushed towards Liu Shuya. They flew up from the water, and they didn't know how they borrowed their strength.

"I don't even want to take a breath." Liu Shuya thought to himself.

Let's fight, is it possible to be caught with your hands tied, and then killed?

Think beautifully.

Even if you are the most fucking zombie king in the world, Lao Tzu will break a few of your fangs.

The two corpses are powerful, and Liu Shuya is not a vegetarian.

Facing the two corpse generals who flew down, Liu Shuya remembered a story called "Tang Fights the Tiger" that he had read in the book, which was about an old man from a family of tigers who had a knack for attacking and killing a tiger. When the tiger pounced, a short body, raised a sharp axe, calmly cut a long wound under the tiger's belly, the tiger instantly disemboweled, intestines flowed to the ground, how to eat people?

The two corpse generals who swooped down in mid-air on the opposite side were like two fierce tigers, but unfortunately Liu Shuya had no knife in his hand, but he was forced to go to the corner, and he could only learn from the old man who fought the tiger.

He stooped down and scurried forward, standing right where the two corpse generals had fallen, dodging the long knives they had slashed.

Liu Shuya stretched out his hand and grabbed the ankle of a corpse general with both hands, and then his body began to spin, turning into a spinning top. The two corpses were grabbed by him and rotated with him, and after three turns, Liu Shuya let go of his hand with the power of centrifugation.

In these few rabbit falls, Liu Shuya is extremely accurate about the opponent's landing point, and the strength of picking up the two corpse generals is even more amazing, showing a strong attack power.

A corpse general close to the rock wall was directly knocked out by him and hit the rock wall, and his head was like a watermelon on the ground, knocking into the flower. This zombie's head is a vital point, controlling the entire zombie body, and if it is shot in the head, it will naturally not be able to kill people again.

Another corpse general was thrown by Liu Shuya onto the rock wall opposite the dark river, and he was also hit lightly. But because it was far away, the strength was weaker after all, and the effect was worse, so it didn't break its head, but after hearing a bang, it fell on the surface of the dark river, and it still didn't sink.

For zombies, as long as they are not injured, other physical damage is equivalent to itching in the stockings. So the corpse will stand up again on the water, roar at Liu Shuya, and kill again.

Liu Shuya picked up the long knife dropped by the zombie that was "killed" this time.

Facing the corpse general who jumped up from the water and attacked again, he rushed forward without hesitation, sideways avoided the long knife cut by the other party, and the blade in his hand swept horizontally.

If this knife is very sharp, then this corpse will inevitably be cut into two pieces by Liu Shuya's beautiful knife, but unfortunately the knife has been eroded by air moisture for many years, and no one has sharpened the knife, so it is very frustrating, this touch of force is light, and it did not cause much damage to the other party.

Liu Shuya immediately knew that this knife could only be used as a stick.

When he misses a move, the other party immediately slashes at him diagonally upwards. The corpse will be powerful, and this knife from the bottom up also carries the sound of the wind.

Liu Shuya hurriedly dodged, rolled on the spot, and then immediately stood up, rounded the knife in his hand, and smashed it at the head of the corpse general.

This corpse is dead, and I don't know why the martial arts are still there, maybe there are some special nerves and muscles that still retain corresponding memories. But after all, when he is dead, he stiffens, and can only rely on brute force and the advantage of not being afraid of pain to win with others.

In terms of reflexes, speed, and dexterity, it is completely inferior to that of a living person. Not to mention any strategy to meet the enemy.

Therefore, the corpse general only knows how to attack, but does not know how to defend.

Liu Shuya's hand-shaking knife is amazing. smashed on the corpse's face, directly hit half of its head, and it had already hit the vital point, so that the zombie took a few steps back, stepped on the water, and still wouldn't sink.

Half of the corpse's head will be knocked off, but half of it will remain, and in the remaining half of the head, it seems that there are still some organs that can control its body that have not been completely destroyed, so the guy did not "die" immediately, but because the eyes above the bridge of the nose have been knocked out, and he can't see things, so the corpse with half of his head will lose his goal, staggering in the water, and actually walked into the flames under the iron pillar of Nanzhao, and was burned to ashes in an instant.

The zombie itself was dry and unconscious, and it was burned by fire, and it didn't know how to scream, like burning a piece of wood.

The two corpses around him will be dealt with cleanly, if the enemy is a human, maybe they will be deeply shocked, but unfortunately the remaining opponents are all corpse soldiers, and they don't know how to be afraid at all. The army of corpses chasing after him also approached.

Liu Shuya had a horizontal knife in his hand, ready to fight to the death with the corpse soldiers rushing from the opposite side.

He held the knife in his hand diagonally upward, waiting for the other party to approach, ready to strike at any moment.

This action made the blade of the knife very close to his eyes, and in an instant, Liu Shuya caught a glimpse of three seal characters engraved on the body of the knife, and he recognized that those three words were: "Vine Armor Army".

The Vine Armor Army?

These three words immediately reminded Liu Shuya of a very famous battle example in the Three Kingdoms:

"Zhuge Liang burned the rattan armor army".

It is said that when Zhuge Liang captured Meng Shu seven times, Meng Huo invited the vine armor army of the Ugo country to fight Zhuge Liang, which brought great trouble to the latter.

These barbarians are equipped with rattan armor, good at defending against arrows, invulnerable to slashing and stabbing guns, unsinkable in water, invincible on the battlefield, and brave and not afraid of death.

But the only drawback of those rattan armors was that they were flammable, and in the end, Kong Ming burned countless barbarians to death with gunpowder in oil trucks to achieve victory.

This gave Liu Shuya a great inspiration.

The two rattan armor corpses guarding the water have been killed by Liu Shuya, and one of them happened to be burned to death by mistake, so these vine armor corpse soldiers behind may also be able to deal with it by fire.

Use your body as bait, lure them to the spitting of the Nanzhao Iron Pillar, and burn them to death. He can dive into the water himself, even if the rattan armor corpse soldiers will not be tricked and will not rush to the mouth of the fire and be burned to death, they can only float on the surface of the water, and cannot dive into the water to chase Liu Shuya.

Then he could dive and escape.

Thinking of this, Liu Shuya already knew that as long as he was no longer intercepted into the water, he would be invincible this time.

Therefore, he did not hesitate, held the long knife, jumped into the dark river, and swam towards the fire under the iron pillar of Nanzhao.

The group of rattan armor corpse soldiers saw Liu Shuya enter the water, and they actually chased and killed, Liu Shuya swam in the water, they would not sink, so they ran on the water.

Liu Shuya swam to the flame under the iron pillar of Nanzhao, took a deep breath, dived directly into the water, and then dived deep into the bottom again.

He hid in the water and watched the fire from the other side again, before watching the battle between fire and water, and now watching the barbecue zombies.

Although the rattan armor corpse soldiers were brave, they were all brainless things, who knew the danger of the fire ahead, and they really crashed into the flames one after another and then burned one after another, but it didn't take long for them to burn clean, only the sharp blades and iron armor in their hands could not be burned, and they sank into the water one after another. In the small water where Liu Shuya was located, it seemed to be raining weapons.

Fortunately, which weapons were no longer sharp, and they did not sink fast in the water, and did not cause harm to Liu Shuya.

He hid under the water, watching the vine armor army annihilated in the flames, his tense heart relaxed, and most of the breath in his mouth ran away.

Only then did I find that there was not enough gas.

He quickly swam under the water in the direction of the shore for a while, and made sure that there were no more active vine armor corpses above his head, and then he surfaced.

Still, he inhaled and looked around with his knife, careful not to slip through the net.

It's all burned out. It seems that these rattan armor corpse soldiers are just low-level zombies, but they have more strength, some military literacy remaining, and they are wearing rattan armor, so their attack power is greater. Completely thoughtless, not as powerful as a vampire.

For the sake of caution, Liu Shuya dangled the knife in the water for a while, and nothing jumped out to attack him, so he was sure that he was safe.

So he climbed ashore and sat down on the shore to rest and pant for breath.

After taking a breath twice, he remembered that there was still a rattan armor corpse with a broken head that had not been burned, and Liu Shuya was afraid that if this thing was revived by convulsions, he would recruit a team of corpse soldiers, which would be very troublesome, so he walked to the edge of the rock wall, raised his long knife, and smashed the dry corpse a few more times.

There was no movement.

Liu Shuya was relieved.

But looking at the rattan armor corpse in front of him, Liu Shuya felt a little curious, and squatted down to study it.

It is said that the rattan armor on the body of this rattan armor army is a rare thing, and the production process is very complicated.

Take the special wild rattan born in the savage land of the southwest as raw material, process and make rattan armor by skilled craftsmen, and then soak it with tung oil, two days later, take out the rattan armor to dry, at least 7749 days, and then soak and dry it with tung oil, so repeat it five times, it takes about two years, and a set of rattan armor can be completed.

Of course, this is recorded in the history books.

But now that Liu Shuya has seen this rattan armor soldier with his own eyes, he feels that there seems to be something wrong with this statement.

Because the rattan armor corpse in front of him did not seem to be deliberately braided, but more like it grew naturally on the body.

Liu Shuya stretched out his hand and broke off a rattan stick from the body of the rattan armor corpse, and held it in his hand, which was really greasy.

On closer inspection, the rattan was more like a skin derivative of an animal like a horn pig's trotter than a vine stem.

Liu Shuya tore off the clothes and armor on the rattan armor corpse, grabbed a rattan, and pulled it hard, but it broke. He grabbed the broken half of the rattan again, and pulled it off hard, this time pulling out the roots of the rattan, and the root of the rattan actually carried the dry flesh of the rattan armor corpse.

Sure enough, as Liu Shuya thought, these so-called rattans are not rattans at all, but appendages that are deeply rooted in the corpse's body, like particularly thick hair.

I don't know if this rattan thing is something that grows out of the rattan armor soldier itself, or if it is an accessory that some parasite invades the human body and grows.

This made Liu Shuya suddenly think of Cordyceps, a parasitic fungus that grows in the body of the insect and then gives birth to "grass", what a similar thing.

This discovery made Liu Shuya suddenly have a new idea about the historical vine armor army:

According to historical records, the combat power of the vine armor army surpasses ordinary people, and they are brave and not afraid of death, and they all look hideous and terrifying.

According to this, can it be assumed that the rattan armor army back then was not a living person wearing armor made of grass and rattan to fight Zhuge Liang at all, but the wizards under Meng Huo, helping Meng Shu, driving these tough zombie armies with rattan armor derivatives to fight against Zhuge Liang? If this is the case, then it is more understandable that even Zhuge Wuhou has a headache for this vine armor army in history.

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang was wise and martial, and the ghosts were unpredictable, and he came up with a good way to burn the vine armor army.

Thinking of this, Liu Shuya smiled self-deprecatingly, it was ridiculous that he would speculate on history with the little discovery in front of him. For this historical research, it is better to wait for this incident to pass, and ask Guan Yun to find an expert to do it. Now the first task is to find the three companions as soon as possible.

He hadn't walked far in this underground canyon before he ran into the Vine Armor Army, but what about the other three?

They're in a very dangerous situation.

Liu Shuya thought of this, and his heart became very nervous.

He didn't think about it anymore, grabbed the captured long knife, stood up, and strode down the dark river.
