Chapter 17: Life and Death

Zhang An and Cao Chun finally avoided the end of becoming minced meat.

Lu Bu finally arrived.

After wielding the halberd to sweep away the surrounding barbarians, Lu Bu stood beside Zhang An, looked at the barbarian thirteen who walked slowly in the posture of a victor with vigilance, and asked in a low voice, "Zhang An, are you okay?"

Zhang An gasped twice, hugged Cao Chun and wanted to get up from the ground, tried several times without success, and simply sat on the ground and said, "It's still alive." ”

Zhang An glanced at Lu Bu and found that Lu Bu's state was not very good at this time.

Lu Bu's hair was scattered, his face was a little pale, and his right hand holding the halberd was also trembling slightly.

His armor was stained with a thick layer of blood plasma, and the strong pungent smell of blood made Zhang An a little sick to his stomach.

It was the first time Zhang An had seen such an embarrassed Lu Bu.

"Later, if you have a chance, you grab a horse and run first with General Cao. Zhang An said in a low voice.

"How could I abandon you!" Lu Bu roared.

"In your current state, one person can't save the two of us. General Cao is more important than me. Zhang An grinned, and said a cruel truth in a very calm tone.

Lu Bu was silent and waved his halberd again, brushing away the arrows that were shooting at the two of them.

"But I've come up with a trick to clear the way for you, and I'll go all out to draw the qi into my body later, and when the qi in my body is almost accumulated, I'll rush into the crowd. Zhang An licked his mouth.

After slowing down for a while, he finally had the strength to help Cao Chun stand up.

"You're crazy!" Lu Bu said anxiously, "If you do this, there will be no bones left!"

"Even if there are no bones left, it is better than being beheaded and used as a military feat. Zhang An glanced at Lu Bu and said, "I swear, even if you knock me unconscious, after I wake up, I will blow myself up as soon as possible." ”

Lu Bu opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

After repelling a few more waves of enemies, Lu Bu finally made a decision and nodded with difficulty.

"Hey, when I die in the future, I must... Zhang An's words were halfway through, but he stopped.

He lowered his head and looked at a dagger stuck in his chest, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a fleeting black shadow.

"Zhang An!" Lu Bu held Zhang An with his left hand, and injected qi into Zhang An's body, feeling remorseful.

Exhausted, he failed to grasp the assassin's tracks, and as a result, Zhang An was hit with a fatal blow.

"Don't waste your energy... I'm so sorry... Zhang An whispered, and then slowly closed his eyes.

Lu Bu watched Zhang An fall down with Cao Chun in his arms.

Obviously, losing his mind on the battlefield is the way to die, but Lu Bu, who has been in battle for a long time, was completely stunned at this moment.

"General Lu, now you are the only one left. Man Thirteen stood not far from Lu Bu, surrounded by heavy guards.

He is not stupid, Lu Bu after the death of his comrades is the most terrifying, Lu Bu, who has completely lost his worries, now does not have to worry about the safety of others, and is bound to aim all the anger, sadness and killing intent in his heart at himself.

What will be the consequences of a fierce beast with grief and anger at the pinnacle of force?

Man Thirteen is not willing to fight Lu Bu in this state, his real strength is lower than Lu Bu, and he is not sure that he can retreat with his whole body.

It's one thing to fight before the battle, and it's another thing to ask for hardship.

Lu Bu calmly glanced at the complacent Man Thirteen, leaned over and hugged Cao Chun, who had a weak breath.

"Hmm, there's still one alive?" the Barbarian Thirteen summoned his own soldiers and ordered in a low voice, "Aim at the person in Lu Bu's arms when you attack later." ”

Lu Bu's hand holding the halberd ignited with blood-colored flames.

The flame of light quickly spread towards Lu Bu's whole body, and the blazing temperature caused the blood on Lu Bu's body to turn into a trace of green smoke and drift away.

"Don't give him time to recuperate, kill him quickly!" Man Thirteen felt a momentum that made his heart tremble, and hurriedly ordered, "Kill Lu Bu, reward ten thousand gold, and tear the earth and seal the king!"

The rich reward made the barbarians' eyes redden, and they rushed towards Lu Bu frantically.

Lu Bu frowned slightly.

If a military general wants to deliver a city-destroying blow like Lu Bu, there must be a process of accumulating strength.

Although this process only takes less than ten breaths, it is still too long on the battlefield where anything can happen.

Moreover, such a shocking attack will not only consume a lot of the user's qi, but also be a great burden on the user's body.

Although the above negative conditions are within Lu Bu's ability to bear, there is still the most important point.

This blow does not distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, and it is easy to accidentally injure friendly troops on a battlefield where the enemy and the enemy are mixed.

However, at this moment, only Lu Bu and Cao Chun in his arms were left in the whole army, and he had no such worries.

So after he picked up Cao Chun, he quietly started the process of accumulating strength.

It's just a pity that when he was about to go to the last step, he was still seen by the Barbarian Thirteen and fell short.

Lu Bu sighed secretly, it seemed that he didn't have a chance to give Man Thirteen a big gift.

He was ready to stop the move, and then got out with all his might.

At this moment, Zhang An, who had already fallen to the ground and was almost out of breath, suddenly opened his eyes.

A trace of ominous blood spread in Zhang An's eyes, and he stiffened his movements and got up from the ground.

"Zhang An?!" Lu Bu looked at Zhang An in surprise, "Are you okay?"

"Feng Xian, go!" Zhang An shouted vaguely and stepped forward.

He rushed towards the enemy in front of Lu Bu like an arrow from the string, although Zhang An was unarmed, but just by looking at him, he defeated the enemy to the ground.

Zhang An brandished a war knife that he snatched by the momentum, and slashed a large circle in front of him, and a fierce energy split the enemy around him in two.

At the same time, the long knife in his hand shattered, and he couldn't withstand the qi that Zhang An poured into the long knife.

The ferocious blow temporarily swept away the enemies around the trio, but at the cost of opening countless wounds and sneering at the outward blood.

Lu Bu looked at Zhang An in amazement, and then frowned deeply.

In his perception, Zhang An's heartbeat and breathing were already so weak that they were almost difficult to detect.

"Let's go!" Zhang An shouted again indistinctly, as if he was beginning to lose his mind.

He took a few steps in a row, and his body was like a ghost and quickly passed through the layers of enemies, and swooped straight at the Brute Thirteen.

In the process of pounced on the Thirteenth Man, Zhang An blasted an enemy with a single punch and grabbed a spear.

"Bell!" the spear collided with a sledgehammer, and both exploded at the same time.

Zhang An castrated unabated, and crashed straight into the arms of the barbarian who was blocking his way.

A dense crack sounded, and the barbarian screamed and collapsed to the ground like mud.

Zhang An's momentum became higher and higher, constantly climbing, and the qi emitted continued to become condensed and heavy, and he gradually had a tendency to be as long as a first-class general.

The young man reappeared silently and inserted a dagger into Zhang An's lower abdomen.

Just when the boy hit his hand and wanted to escape, his wrist was firmly grasped by Zhang An.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Zhang An grinned, grabbed the young man's wrist and took it into his arms, hugging the young man tightly.

For the first time, a look of panic appeared on the boy's face.

Zhang An roared, and the arms holding the young man contracted suddenly.

"Snort" A large amount of steaming blood burst out of his body.

A crackling sound sounded, the young man's face turned pale, his body began to shake rapidly, and the afterimage of the Dao Dao was shaken out in Zhang An's arms, and he finally got out at the critical moment when he was strangled to death by Zhang An.

The young man glanced at Zhang An, turned around and left the battlefield without looking back.

Finally cleared up another big trouble for Lu Bu's retreat, and Zhang Anxin, whose consciousness began to become blurred, was overjoyed.

Thinking of Lu Bu, he subconsciously glanced back.

This glance almost didn't make him skew his nose.

He risked his life to open the way for him, but Lu Bu looked at him worriedly, hanging behind him not far away.

"Get out!" Zhang An's eyes widened, and he pointed at Lu Bu's nose and roared unceremoniously.

Then he threw out his right hand, which had healed at some point, and swept half a circle to the right, spitting blood and flying the enemy who surrounded him again.

Lu Bu felt that the qi emitted by Zhang An began to expand and fluctuate violently, and he had the intention of exploding if he didn't agree with him, and his heart was gloomy.

He threw the halberd in his hand at Zhang An, silently said cherished, and stepped on the ground heavily.

The ground shook suddenly, and countless clods of earth shot violently, forcing the enemies around Lu Bu to retreat.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Bu picked up a long knife that fell to the ground with his toes, rushed to a cavalryman in three steps and two steps, stretched out his hand to drag the barbarian off the warhorse, and turned over on the horse himself.

"Zhang An, you must live!" Lu Bu roared, and rode the snatched war horse to kill without looking back.

Zhang An, who successfully received Fang Tian's painting halberd, only felt a sinking in his hand, and when he picked up the painting halberd, he rushed straight towards Man Thirteen.

After Lu Bu had the intention of retreating, only the Barbarian Thirteen had the ability to entangle Lu Bu, and he had to block him.

Although Zhang An's cognition of the halberd method is only scratching the surface, he can't hold the halberd long enough, and he recklessly continues to pour qi into the halberd, swinging the halberd like a mad tiger.

For a while, Zhang An was brave, and the flesh and blood flew everywhere he passed, and ordinary barbarians had no enemies in his hands, only the guards around the barbarian thirteen could live a few tricks with him.

Man Thirteen glanced at Lu Bu, who was gradually moving away on the other side, and knew that there was such a madman in front of him, and it had become impossible to leave Lu Bu completely.

Thinking that the biggest goal of this trip was not completed, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, and looked at Zhang An with a strong murderous intent in his eyes.

He pulled the reins in his hand and killed Zhang An.

Zhang An, who had completely lost consciousness and killed the enemy by instinct, swung his halberd to block the blow of the brute thirteen, and took a few steps back.

There were more and more wounds on Zhang An's body, and the skin on his body gradually began to appear miserable white because of excessive blood loss.

But Zhang An only muttered vaguely, and continued to rush and kill in the barbarian army.

At the last moment of rushing out of the enemy's encirclement, Lu Bu couldn't help but look back in the direction of Zhang An, but there were too many people between the two, and he didn't see Zhang An.

Lu Butie blushed and left with Cao Chun.

Man Thirteen repelled Zhang An again and again, but Zhang An continued to attack without reluctance.

After a long time, Man Thirteen looked at Zhang An, who fell to the ground and couldn't stand up anymore, with a complicated expression, and stopped the guards around him from wanting to cut off Zhang An's head.

"He was a brave man of loyalty. The Thirteen commanded, "Bury it." ”

At this time, several soldiers came over carrying Lu Bu's Fang Tian Painting Halberd.

"Buried with him. Man Thirteen pointed at Zhang An and turned to leave.

"Gather the whole army and withdraw the troops!"
