Chapter 70: Fighting the Dogs
287
The next day, Long Zixi had breakfast, put on the collar, put on the shoulders, changed into a tight black clothes, deliberately changed a pair of shoelaces, tightened the shoes, and inserted the dagger at his waist.
The costume stopped, and an official had already come to invite, so he rode on a horse with the priest Qiong and the Fang family brothers and came to the school martial arts field.
The queen was accompanied by the "Five Elements", and was invited into the palace earlier and went with the king of You.
The school martial arts field is in the north of the pickaxe capital, and it will be there in a while.
When I entered the field, I saw a high platform in the center of the field, which was five feet high and four feet square.
Long Zi Xixin said: The platform is really big enough, but it is conducive to flashing and moving.
Looking at the surroundings of the school martial arts field, it was already full of soldiers and long halberds.
On the other side, it was crowded with people.
I also saw eight cages on the right side of the lower platform, and the eight vicious dogs were among them.
Long Zixi glanced at it and saw that the eight dogs were really very majestic, all of them had golden-brown fur, lying or sitting, and some were walking back and forth in the cage, but the details were not very clear.
Next to the cage, there are several oni samurai.
Seeing the people of Long Zixi coming in, the few warriors smiled and pointed, saying something.
Third Brother Fang asked:
"What did they say?"
The officer said:
"They...... Hi, they say, that wolver's mastiff's ...... Breakfast is coming! ”
When they heard this, they were not angry.
Sai Qiong said angrily:
"These ghost people are the most ruthless, I heard that the fighting dog deliberately did not feed the wolf mastiff that day!"
Long Zixi sneered:
"What can I do if I don't feed it, it wants to eat me, I'm afraid it's not that easy!"
On the north side of the platform, a small platform was also erected and two rows of chairs were placed.
There are only three chairs in the first row, and the one in the middle is glittering and gorgeous.
Xindao: That is naturally the seat of the Hidden King.
As the crowd watched, they heard the officer shout:
"The Son of Heaven has arrived!"
A group of officials came accompanied by three palanquins.
The soldiers and civilians fell to their knees and shouted "Hurrah".
The sedan chair stopped in front of the small platform, and the king, queen and Bao Xi got off the sedan chair and were supported by Gong E to sit on the small platform.
A group of people who followed also went to the stage and sat down in the back row.
Long Zixi glanced to the left, and saw that the few people sitting were all dressed as Hu people, presumably it must be the envoy of the ghost party.
In addition to the "Five Elements Hero" on the right, it is nothing more than Yu Shifu, Sai Gongyi, Yin Qiu, Ji Gang, Yang Pu and others, but Mu Wan has not been seen.
Xin said: "This dog thief may have been killed by Yin Qiu because of the failure to assassinate the prince." ”
Everyone sat down, and Yin Qiu stood up and said to the ghost messenger:
"Lord Turba, today I will defeat the vicious dog against the warriors, are you ready?"
Naturba grinned greatly:
"Lord Yin, please look at the audience, aren't you ready early? The Gui Dynasty did not fight again for more than ten days. Do you dare to have a big warrior today? I don't know where the warriors are? ”
Yin Qiu pointed at Long Zixi with his hand:
"It's this warrior!"
Long Zixi took a step forward, hugged his fist on the stage, and smiled slightly.
Naturba leaned over and saw that Long Zixi was not a strong man, and he couldn't help laughing:
"This is the warrior who wants to fight my divine dog? Haha, haha! ”
And said to the king of You:
"Your Majesty, if your state does not win today, the deadline has come, and you have to act according to the agreement!"
The King of Darkness sank his face:
"There has been an agreement for a long time, so why bother!"
Then he rushed down the stage and said:
"Long Zixi, are you ready?"
Long Zi Xi bowed to the king of You:
"My king rest assured, today he will defeat the vicious dog and raise his power for me!"
Naturba pouted:
"Hmph, I see that this man's meat is also a little less, I'm afraid it won't be enough for these few to eat. Ha ha! ”
Yin Qiu sneered:
"Lord Turba, don't be proud. Do you know who our warrior is? It is the first warrior of the dynasty, Long Zixi. Forgive you and other people who are far away, and they do not know his prestige. Not to mention four, so what's the point of having a few more? ”
But it was Yin Qiu who intended to ask for Long Zixi's life through the mouth of the wolf mastiff, and deliberately said so, leading Naturba to say things that were unfavorable to Long Zixi.
Naturba laughed when he heard it:
"Good, good! If you fight a few days ago, you will fight four by one person. However, hehe, since Lord Yin said that he was the first warrior of the Gui Dynasty, today he is going to fight five with one fight, otherwise wouldn't he underestimate this warrior too much? Do you dare, that warrior? ”
It turned out that although Naturba didn't know the name of Long Zixi, he saw that Long Zixi was calm and relaxed, and knew that Long Zixi must not be an idle person.
He is also smart and knows what Yin Qiu means.
took advantage of Yin Qiu's words, temporarily made a move, and added another dog, if this side did not dare to fight, it would be lost.
Even if this side insists on fighting four with one fight, it is the cowardice of the Zhou Dynasty that comes first, and it is shameless to win.
When all the people heard what Turpa had said, they were furious.
But they all thought of this layer, if Long Zixi insisted on not allowing it, he would be afraid, and he would lose his sharpness first.
If it is inherited, it is extremely dangerous.
They all secretly scolded this ghost barbarian in their hearts for being really vicious, but they couldn't say anything to help.
Everyone looked at the Ghost King, hoping that he would refuse.
The king was drinking a sip of tea, and when he heard it, he added a dog, and he was shocked, and he choked and coughed vigorously, where could he speak?
Seeing this, Long Zixi did not hesitate, and said loudly:
"In this way, we will fight the five dogs in the next place!"
The queen secretly scolded Long Zixi in her heart:
"You, what a brainkiller! It's good to fight five dogs, and it's good to add some conditions, for example, bring a shield or something, but how to only hold it up! ”
But he couldn't interject, and he only complained in his heart.
King You stopped coughing at this time, and when he heard that Longzi Xi was willing to fight the five dogs, he was overjoyed, and said:
"Come on, give wine to Long Zixi!"
A subordinate came up with wine, but it was Yu Shi's father who took the wine, got off the stage, and handed it to Long Zixi.
Long Zixi didn't want to drink, but the matter had come to this point, but he couldn't refuse, so he simply took it and drank it all.
Father Yu Shi took the empty cup and said in a low voice:
"Noble Bao specially asked me to tell you, if you can't defeat the vicious dog, jump off the stage as soon as possible and run for your life, don't fight to the death!"
Long Zixi nodded.
Then, a ghost warrior came over and checked Long Zixi's outfit.
Seeing that he was only carrying a dagger and no other weapons, he nodded at Turba.
As soon as Turpa waved his hand, the five warriors released five large dogs from the cage and led them to the stage, four of which occupied four corners, and the other with the largest physique squatted on the south side.
The five warriors unloaded the ropes and got off the platform.
The five vicious dogs fell to their knees, staring ahead.
Long Zixi nodded at the Fang family brothers and Sacrifice Qiong, turned around and walked towards the platform.
Look at the distance from Zhangyu, a step, fly up, and stand firmly in the center of the platform.
When the five big dogs saw that Longzi was on the stage, they all stood up on their hind legs, and their front paws clung to the table, and let out a low roar of "woo", and the whole atmosphere suddenly became tense.
288
Long Zixi secretly thought, Huo Yunqi said that this beast is quite human, look at these five beasts, the one in the south should be a leader, should not be the first to attack, the two in front must be a feint, and the two in the back will really attack.
At that moment, his body was slightly bent, he held his breath tightly, his eyes were fixed on the two in front of him, but his ears were listening carefully to the movements of the three.
Sure enough, the one on the south side first let out a long scream, as if giving an order.
The two in front of them suddenly jumped and were about to rush towards Long Zixi, but they were not very far ahead.
At the same time, I heard the hooves of the dogs behind me, but the two dogs behind pounced at the same time.
Everyone opened their mouths wide, and when they saw the two dogs rushing forward, there were still three or five steps away from Long Zixi, and they jumped up at the same time, and the four sharp claws were about to grab Long Zixi's back, but they saw that Long Zixi didn't seem to know, still squatting motionless, and they were all nervous to the extreme.
Third Brother Fang shouted even more:
"Be careful!"
In fact, how could Long Zixi not know that the two dogs behind him were attacking?
It's just that when he lived in seclusion in the mountains a few years ago, he also had a dog, and he knew that dogs had a characteristic, if people escaped, the dog became more and more rampant, chasing and biting in the back, if people did not move, but few dogs dared to come up directly and bite.
Of course, he also knew that this wolverine mastiff was by no means comparable to ordinary dogs.
In the past few days, he has already made up his mind to brake quietly and strike later.
When the two mastiffs behind him pounced, he neither flashed left and right, nor moved back and forth, but with a force on his legs, his body was flat and lifted up to a person's height, and the two dogs jumped under his feet with a "whoosh", and pounced in the air.
The two dogs in front of them were ready, and they only waited for Long Zixi to move left and right, and then attacked, but they were also surprised to see Long Zixi jumping flat on the ground.
But these beasts were indeed smart and fierce, and when they saw Long Zixi fall back to their original places, the other three dogs pounced on them from three directions.
Long Zixi concocted the same method, and jumped again, allowing the three dogs to rush under his feet.
The five dogs missed a blow, and seeing that Long Zixi did not fight back, he turned around and pounced from five directions.
Long Zixi relied on his light skills, jumped up and down on the spot freely, and had already dodged more than a dozen attacks.
Seeing that Long Zixi was at the right time every time, his body was light and agile, he jumped not high or short, and always let the four wolf mastiffs return to the air, and he sighed unconsciously, Long Zixi's light skills were a little bit better than his own, and he couldn't help but admire them even more.
But I thought, how long can I hold on to such a jump?
Naturba was also surprised to see that the five dogs attacked frequently but never worked.
But then you thought about it, and you kept jumping to see how much strength you still had!
In fact, at this time, everyone on the field thought the same, and they all felt that Long Zixi would inevitably lack strength if he jumped down again, and couldn't help but stare at the field even more nervously.
The five dogs crossed and pounced more than a dozen times in a row, but they didn't succeed once, and they were also anxious.
But I saw that the two dogs in front and the three in the back were panting, and after a short rest, they pounced at the same time.
This time, Long Zixi did not jump upward, but at the moment when the five dogs pounced on him, he fell backwards, bent his legs, stood the dagger upward, and kicked out his feet at the same time.
Then I heard a "whoosh", and the dagger just slashed through the belly of a wolf mastiff.
You think how sharp the dagger is, and by the impact of the big dog, it has already cut a wolf mastiff's belly in half.
The mastiff screamed and fell to the ground, blood and entrails spilling all over the ground, leaving only the leg kick.
The other two were kicked by Long Zixi's feet, and they also fell and screamed, although they were not injured, they obviously fell not lightly.
Under the exclamation of the crowd, the cheers erupted.
Long Zixi rolled on the spot, got up and stood up, and waited for the enemy.
The remaining four dogs jumped up to the dead dog and sniffed, apparently more angry, roaring in a low voice, and at the same time pounced on Long Zixi from the front.
Long Zixi jumped for a long time just now, and he also felt that his strength had decreased, so in order to prevent his strength from falling off, this time he no longer jumped up and down, but jumped out to the right in the oblique stab.
The four dogs couldn't pounce, so they turned around and chased after them.
Long Zixi performed light skills and walked along the edge of the platform like flying.
But seeing that Long Zixi was in front and the four dogs were behind, he turned around twice in a blink of an eye.
Everyone raised their hearts to their throats, and the "Five Elements" simply stood up, hoping that the dragon son Xili had wings and could fly.
On the third lap, Long Zixi was running, and suddenly there was a sharp stop, followed by a backflip, which had already fallen behind the four dogs, and the ass of a wolverine really appeared in front of him.
Long Zixi didn't think much about it, and threw himself forward, not waiting for the wolf mastiff to turn around, the dagger had already stabbed into its ass.
There was another scream, and the mastiff rolled on the ground a few times, convulsing and unable to stand up again.
With a successful blow, Long Zixi could no longer be empty, and while the three dogs under him were frightened, he made another big jump, jumped in front of the largest wolf mastiff, and stabbed with a dagger.
This time, Long Zixi actually made a big mistake.
If he still uses the method of preemptive strike, with the technique of flashing and moving, and maneuvering with him, as long as he does not let the wolf mastiff get close, he will win.
But he killed two dogs in a row, and he also consumed a lot of physical strength, so he wanted to fight quickly.
And the wolf mastiff is the same as a human, and when he sees his companions dying one after another, he must be afraid and panicked, so he wants to take advantage of the victory to pursue.
Who knew that the wolf mastiff was a beast after all, and when he saw his companions being killed one after another, he smelled blood, and he was wild.
Long Zixi's initiative to attack is creating an opportunity for the wolf mastiff to get close.
But when the wolf mastiff saw the dagger stabbing at him, he didn't dodge, but stood on two hind legs like a human, pounced forward, and hit Long Zixi's wrist with his left paw with his left paw, and his right paw grabbed Long Zixi's left hand, but a big mouth bit Long Zixi's throat.
Long Zixi felt a pain in his right wrist, the dagger almost landed, and his left hand grabbed the beast's right claw, but his chest was completely exposed.
The wolf mastiff bit it, but it bit the brass bell on the collar, only to hear the rattling, and the bell was bitten to pieces.
At the same time, two dogs pounced behind the sound.
At this point, it's really dangerous.
The big dog in front weighed about 200 pounds, and he pounced on him, and he could have knocked Long Zixi down.
But it happened to be a dog in the back, and the two front paws were on Long Zixi's shoulders, and the two dogs in front and back were like brackets, and Long Zixi was also self-reliant, but he was not pounced.
The one in the back bit Long Zixi's back, and it was thanks to the treasure robe that he was not seriously injured, and Rao was like this, and the shoulder without the protection of the treasure robe was also scratched by the beast's sharp claws.
The other dog bit Long Zixi's right leg from behind and tore it with all his might.
Long Zixi only felt pain in many places on his body, and his heart was in a hurry.
Everyone saw that one person and three dogs were entangled in one place, which was more dangerous than the chase just now, and they were all frightened, and the queen was even more anxious, and she only screamed badly in her heart.
At this time, Long Zixi was in a hurry, pulled his left hand hard, hugged the situation with him, and hugged the neck of the wolf mastiff in front of him, just like a move of fighting with people to lock his throat, pinning his head tightly to the left side of his face.
The wolf mastiff roared in a low voice, opened its mouth and bit indiscriminately, but it could no longer bite.
Long Zixi's right hand was empty, and he touched the butt of the wolf mastiff he was holding and stabbed the dagger into it.
I only heard the wolf mastiff scream, and its body gradually softened.
Long Zixi shook it vigorously and threw the wolf mastiff aside.
Long Zixi took off his hands, his left hand reached back from his right shoulder, and he had already touched the other wolf claw on his shoulder.
Pulling forward, he pulled the mastiff's head to the same position as his right face.
The wolf mastiff resisted with all his might, trying to break free from the grabbed front paws, but he couldn't break free for a while.
Originally, the wolf mastiff had great strength, how could Long Zixi pull it out?
But the wolf mastiff stood like a man, and it was a four-legged animal, and it was weak to stand.
Second, this wolf mastiff has been jumping for a long time, and it has also consumed a lot of physical strength.
Sanlai Long Zixi also exerted enough strength, so he succeeded in pulling.
Besides, the wolf mastiff that bit Long Zixi's right leg struggled to pull Long Zixi down.
Under normal circumstances, Long Zixi would have been unable to support it for a long time.
At this time, it was another wolf mastiff with its front paws that grabbed Long Zixi's shoulders and stood behind Long Zixi, and Long Zixi seemed to have two more legs.
Therefore, one person and two dogs only circled in place, and Long Zixi still did not fall down after fighting for a long time.
When the beast saw that Long Zixi did not fall, he relented and turned to attack Long Zixi's right hand holding the sword.
Long Zixi saw that he had killed the three dogs, and although most of his strength had been consumed, his confidence increased greatly and he was very calm.
During the struggle, his right hand finally got a chance to stab the dagger backwards along his waist.
I heard another scream, and the wolf mastiff behind him finally couldn't support it, lost its strength, and fell softly.
The remaining wolf mastiff saw that he was the only one left, and he didn't dare to attack again, yelled at Long Zixi a few times, suddenly turned around and jumped off the stage, got into the cage with his tail between his legs, and still stared at Long Zixi with frightened eyes.
In an instant, the audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.
Long Zixi wiped his sweat and looked at the stage.
When I saw Bao Xi, she clapped her hands and smiled like a child.
But he suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen, his eyes were dark, and he slowly fell down.
