Chapter 58: Bright Sword
The group walked more than 50 meters away from the tent area blocking the intersection and was discovered, and more than a dozen soldiers with cats and green faces rushed out of the tent to block the way.
These green men wore black cloaks and carried cold weapons such as swords in their hands. Their average height is comparable to that of kapok, but they are more leaner than kapok, with green faces and beards of varying lengths.
The green man soldier at the head pointed with the sword in his hand and shouted, "Who are you?" They all look weird and dare to attack our barracks! ”
Shang Lin waved the sword in his hand and said politely: "Hey, soldiers! We are the messengers of the King of Heaven, but what country are you soldiers? ”
"Of course we are soldiers of Wanghai Kingdom, don't you see that the people of Guhe are all locked up in Princess City? What are you? Celestial King's Messenger? The Green Man Leader's tone relaxed.
Before Lin could reply, someone among the green soldiers shouted, "Head, look at their faces with red tree sap!" It's five people from Tianling who are singing! ”
Another green soldier shouted, "Head, you see, their faces are all slick and without a beard, and they are five little plays!" ”
The greenmen let out a burst of laughter.
The green soldier at the head shouted with a straight face: "Hey! This is a battlefield, not a stage, you guys hurry up and go back to Tianling! ”
Shanglin wiped his face with his hands and said, "Everyone, we didn't wipe any mangrove sap, we are red people from the prairie!" Messenger of the Heavenly King! ”
As soon as Kamibayashi finished speaking, the green men burst into laughter again.
The leading soldier pointed his sword at the opposite side and said, "You five little liars, don't think that you will become a red man in the prairie by smearing a little red tree sap on your face, get out of my hands quickly!" Otherwise, I'll cut off your head with a sword, and you'll really be a red man by then. ”
This time, the Green Men laughed even more.
Kapok Zi waved the sword in his hand and stepped forward to stand side by side with Shanglin, posing as if he was going to fight with the green soldiers.
Shanglin pointed his sword at the green soldier and said sharply: "We have an urgent matter to enter Princess City to find the King of Guhe, and we don't want to talk to you, so we go and find your general, and we have to talk to him." ”
The leading green man soldier did not show weakness, he stepped forward and waved the sword in his hand and said: "You clown monster is so bold, if you can win the sword in my hand, I will take you to meet our general!" ”
Kabayashi said, "Good! You're going to have to fight with a sword! I'll let you strike first! ”
The Green Man Soldier raised his sword and rushed up to stab at Shang Lin, who flashed back and stabbed the Green Man with a sword in the arm holding the sword.
"Ah......h ”
"Samurai spare your life! I'm going to help you find my general!" The Green Man said, clutching his injured arm.
"Go!" Kabayashi said as he removed his sword.
The little leader of the Green Men and his companions turned and ran back, shouting loudly: "Take the general! Here are five plays! Swordsmanship is high! ”
After a while, dozens of green men suddenly appeared in the tent, and out of the middle came a general in a gray cloak, who was holding a sword, and his figure was much taller and stronger than the soldiers around him.
The wounded soldier clutched his bleeding arm and shouted, "Take the general, that clown bastard's sword is very fast, and I was stabbed by him as soon as I made a move!" ”
The green man will stride up to Shanglin and shout with a finger of his sword, "Who are you?" Someone who dared to come to the barracks to hurt this general! ”
Shanglin said unhurriedly: "General, it's he who wants to compete with me!" We are the envoys sent by the King of Heaven to Qizhou, and we have urgent matters to find the King of Guhe, so please let the general let us enter the city. ”
"What? Are you the messengers of the King of Heaven? Hum! The Green Man General sneered, "General Ben has long heard that there is a group of fake reds in the Tianling State pretending to be grassland reds to cheat everywhere, it turns out that it is you!" You deserve to be put to death, but the general has always liked those who are brave and skillful. Seeing that you still dare to come to Princess City to deceive the King of Guhe at this time, this general will spare you from death first. I heard that you are quick to draw your sword, and General Ben wants to see how fast it is, and if you can win against General Ben, General Ben will order the soldiers to line up to welcome you into the city. If you can't win, you must climb into the city from under the crotch of Ben General! ”
"Hey, hey......" The Green Man Soldier laughed loudly.
Kabayashi shouted, "Good! Don't go back, general! ”
"How can the army joke!" The Green Man General said in a loud voice with a calm face.
Shanglin took off his cloak and handed it to Ama behind him, then took two steps forward, raised his sword and said loudly, "General, please take out your sword first!" ”
The green man didn't take off his cloak, he thought that he could clean up the unsightly red-faced little liar in front of him as soon as he stretched out his hand. He took a step forward and stabbed the first sword out of Shanglin with lightning speed, Shanglin dodged and stabbed the sword with his backhand towards the chest of the green man, and the green man hurriedly used his sword to block, after a back and forth, the green man will no longer dare to underestimate the enemy, and the two of them will start a fierce contest back and forth.
Wang Fan was very uneasy when he saw the tall green man in front of Lin Tong in front of him, and he was even more frightened when he saw the two of them start fighting, he thought to himself that it was so dangerous to enter the city, it was better to climb back into the mountains hungry and wait for the sky to clear, as long as Ah Hu was full of energy, he would not be afraid of anything.
Zhen'er glanced out of Wang Fan's bag and immediately retracted in fright, but then couldn't help but poke her head out to look at Shanglin in the fight, and her heart was so anxious that she jumped as if she was fighting against a brutal enemy.
But any regrets are already too late, and the duel has already begun.
The onlookers watched the battle quietly, and the green soldiers, who had good deeds, moved out of their tents with a war drum "Knock knock!" The sound echoed in the gloomy heaven and earth, and Wang Fan raised his eyes to see that the foggy city wall in the distance was full of people looking this way.
In this duel, there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. The green man will be very strong, and he is full of wine and food, and he is hungry and thirsty in the forest, and he is tired of the journey. But the mental condition of each other is completely different, one is a bully, and the other is determined to enter the city.
The onlookers gathered more and more, and the war drums and two swords kept fighting together. When! "The sound was deafening.
After more than a dozen rounds of the battle, the little energy left in Shanglin's body was exhausted, and the arm holding the sword was a little weak. But not only will the green man not have the upper hand, but he will become more and more panicked in his heart, not only because of the swordsmanship of the opponent in front of him, but also because the green man will find himself in big trouble with the sword in his hand.
He would never have dreamed that the opponent in front of him would be the prince of the country of Geyin, the heir of the Heavenly King, and the famous sword collector of the steppe. The sword in his hand was not an ordinary sword, this sword was forged by the most famous old swordsman in the prairie from the finest alloy smelted by the Heavenly King, and it was a sword that sharpened iron like clay.
At first the Green Man and the audience did not pay attention, but a dozen times hit "Dangchang!" After that, the green man will find that the sword in his hand is covered in bruises, and Shanglin's sword is intact. More than a dozen "dangchang!" The blades of the green man's sword were flattened.
Although the green man looked terrified, he was tightly bitten by Shanglin and had to stop swinging his tattered sword to block Shanglin's sword. With a bang, the green man reduced the sword in his hand to only half of it.
"Ahh The audience exclaimed, and the war drums were dumb.
"Stop!" The green man will jump to the side with a scream in his half-cut sword.
Shanglin stopped, he was sweating all over, due to the serious lack of energy in his body, his legs were tired and trembling a little, but he stood with his head held high, his companions behind him breathed a sigh of relief, and Wang Fan's mood jumped from the ground to the sky at once.
"Who are you? There are such swords! The green man will be sweating profusely and panting as he asks.
Kapok stepped forward and shouted, "Hey, we just told you that we are messengers sent by the Heavenly King!" This sword is the sword of the Heavenly King! ”
"If you are really grassland reds, how did you come to Qizhou? There are fishmen moving around in the sea, you can't take that broken boat across the sea to Qizhou. The green man will point to the distinctive gondolas on the river.
Shanglin said: "We flew from the prairie to Qizhou in a hot air balloon, and the hot air balloon stopped on the mountain and could not be used, so we took a boat down the mountain to get here, how did the general know that there were fish people?" ”
"Of course! Our king got a fish-man god ship invincible in the world, and my king ordered the king of Guhe to surrender the city within three days, otherwise let the god ship blow up the princess city. If you are really the envoy of the Heavenly King, it is best to quickly persuade the King of Guhe to surrender immediately, so as not to destroy the only castle in Qizhou built by the Heavenly King. The green man will say.
The opponent's words made Shanglin understand what was going on, and he said in a hurry: "The Heavenly King already knows about this, and we entered Princess City today to persuade King Guhe to surrender, so as not to destroy Princess City, please let us enter the city quickly!" ”
"General Ben has always been a man of words. Lined up! Let the King's Emissary enter the city! "The green man will give orders to the soldiers behind him.
The greenmen stood aside to make way for the greens, and Kabayashi put on his cloak and led his companions to swagger through the ranks of the greenmen.
"Please come out as soon as possible and inform the general of the result! Otherwise, once the king of my family orders the divine ship to bomb the city, don't blame General Ben for your life. The green man shouted.
Shanglin's team walked to the gate directly opposite Princess City, and the guards on the wall shouted, "Hey! Who are you? I just saw you fighting with the Wanghai soldiers! ”
"Hey, don't ask so much yet, open the door quickly, we want to see the Guhe King!" Kapok shouted at the soldiers on the wall with a loud voice.
The city gate opened with a "bang", and as soon as a few people entered, the soldiers guarding the gate immediately closed the gate.
