Chapter 108: Defeat in the second game
Thinking of Huo Qu's illness, Shao Xi was extremely emotional. is also a teenager, look at what people are doing when they are seventeen or eighteen years old? At the age of eighteen, he was named a champion marquis, at the age of nineteen he was promoted to a hussar general, and at the age of twenty-one he reached the pinnacle of achievement that all generals aspire to. Compared to him, what are these young generals in front of him, including himself?
It's a pity that God is jealous of talents, and such a person from the past and the present died young, which is really a sigh! Pity! Pity!
In addition to emotion, he was so thoughtful that he wanted to improvise a poem. So he called the palace maid to send pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and picked up the pen to write the next poem:
Looking at the sunset in the yellow sand in the north, sighing that the white horse is skinny and loose
The journey of thousands of miles is not over, and the cold wind is cold in the three winter nights
Holding swords around the camp, soldiers hitting shields and laughing
The golden armor is unsolved, and the banner hunts and dances in the sky
Fang is young and ambitious, and he throws his pen and throws his pen with pride
Lead the three armies to fight on the battlefield and relieve the people from all directions
Gallop your horse and break through the enemy's gallop strings
The killing is endless, and the soldiers are angry with their lives
The war has been difficult to rest at the border for several years, and the wolf smoke has stained Qingfeng with blood
In the coming days, the country and the people will be safe, and the immortal miracles will be passed on
Yum class teachers and young people have worked hard
Wrapped in scarves and lying on the couch, especially the blue sky in the east
Go to the sick, go to the sick
I only hate cold water and cold winter
Nai, nay
Everything is in the fate
Return, return
The flag has been dying for thousands of years
Happy, happy
There is no great harmony between the north and the south
Books, throw the pen and sigh!
I don't know if this champion Hou has really crossed over like himself, and if he really crossed, has he lived a long life?
Shao Xi is relying on his civil and military veins plus double meridians, and his perception and thinking ability are different from ordinary people, otherwise it would be strange for him to die without getting tired while writing poems and watching martial arts competitions.
Just when Shao Xi was composing poems and pondering blindly, Li Fangrong's spear tip was about to pierce Wu Qiu'er's ankle, but Wu Qiu'er still didn't dodge, just shook the iron chain in his hand, and the iron ball that had sunk under the ground was suddenly pulled out, just before being pulled to his feet to block the way of the tip of the gun.
Seeing that the tip of the gun was blocked by the iron ball, this move was no longer able to make a contribution, so he twisted his wrist with the back hand, the front hand was the tube, and the back pressure was the front pick, and the move became the eighth style "Phoenix nodded to take the throat", pulled out a few spear flowers from the tip of the gun, and stabbed straight to the throat of Wu Qiu'er.
Seeing Li Fangrong's change of moves, Shao Xi secretly applauded in his heart, the changes from the first move, to the current on-the-spot adaptation, all seemed smooth and skilled, and he couldn't see the slightest sense of deliberateness, but seemed to have predicted the other party's reaction in advance.
Wu Qiu'er has not left the same place since he fought with Zhu Yicheng until this moment, but has been dealing with the opponent's attack with iron chains and iron balls, although the moves seem simple, but every time it is very practical, not fancy at all.
Seeing Li Fangrong's shot stabbing towards his throat, Wu Qiu'er still didn't dodge, but simply raised his arm and used the iron ring buckled on his arm to block the tip of the attack.
This move was beyond the imagination of many people, everyone thought that he would move his feet to dodge, but they didn't want him to defuse the opponent's attack in such a simple way.
People are sometimes like this, thinking about things that are obviously very simple, just like this shot just now, many people will choose various ways to dodge, the way to block, but no matter which way is inseparable from the movement of footsteps, over time they think that what they choose is the right one, but in fact, sometimes things are so simple, just need to raise your hand.
Of course, doing so also requires sufficient skills and self-confidence, and it doesn't mean that everyone can stop this shot by doing so.
Li Fangrong saw that Wu Qiu'er raised his arm and wanted to block his shot, so he turned around and changed a new move, using the thirty-second style of the plum blossom spear technique, "White Ape Turning and Eyebrow Sweeping Gun".
Originally, this move was to sweep people's heads, but Wu Qiu'er's figure was too tall, and this shot swept straight to the armpits.
This sweep is powerful and heavy, similar to a stick, if it is swept by the tip of the gun, it is also a skin and flesh, if it is swept by the barrel of the gun, it is a broken bone and tendon, not to mention that both sides are wearing cloth clothes at the moment, even if the enemy general wearing armor on the battlefield is hit by this, he will be immediately thrown off the horse and ready to die.
Because Wu Qiu'er had raised his arm before, his armpit was a big gap at this time, and it was too late to withdraw his hand to block it, so Li Fangrong's shot did not leave a back hand, but used enough strength to pull it out with all his strength, and strive to win with one blow.
Except for the envoys of Nanzhao, everyone watching the battle was extremely excited, and everyone could see that this blow was unavoidable, and Wu Qiu'er was destined to take this shot solidly.
But Shao Xi secretly shook his head at this time, lamenting that Li Fangrong was still too young, he had never fought against a real master, and he still lacked actual combat experience.
From the beginning of the fight, Shao Xi has been observing Li Fangrong's martial arts path, in addition to judging the origin of his spear skills, and then his martial arts cultivation method. Like Zhu Yicheng before, Li Fangrong's martial arts cultivation also belongs to the middle vehicle, which is a typical melee mode, that is, he does not practice decent exercises.
You must know that without the cultivation of the exercises, the vitality cannot be effectively released, although it can form qi on the surface of the body and weapons, but it cannot really release the vitality and form a real qi shield around the body, not to mention the formation of long-range attacks when the vitality is out of the body. Because there is no practice of the exercises all year round, it is natural that the understanding of the exercises will be relatively shallow, and it is difficult to take the factors of the exercises into account in actual combat.
At this moment, Li Fangrong is like this, he has decided that this shot will definitely cause a very effective blow to Wu Qiu'er, so he swept out this shot without reservation, and it is this decision that dooms him to lose this competition.
Just when the big gun in his hand was about to sweep to Wu Qiu'er's armpit, he saw that Wu Qiu'er's body was suddenly shrouded in a layer of light blue vitality.
Bang!
The sound sounded like a huge drumstick smashing on top of the huge drumstick, and the sound that came out shook the eardrums of everyone around them.
Looking at Li Fangrong at this time, the green sinking dragon spear in his hand had already taken off his hand and flew far away, and the tiger's mouths in both hands had been shattered, and he was trembling constantly, at this moment Li Fangrong was looking at the black ball in front of him with a shocked face, as if he couldn't believe what had just happened.
This scene Shao Xi is too familiar, he used the air shield to neutralize the opponent's attack several times before, and he also used the air shield to shock the opponent away when he dealt with Liang Daoqian in Qingshan City. This Li Fangrong is not bad, but the spear is out of his hand, and the person has not flown out yet, which shows that the foundation of internal skills is still very solid.
This is the disadvantage of not cultivating the exercises, the vitality cannot be released, the attack can only be melee combat, the defense can only rely on dodging and blocking, and the qi shield cannot be formed outside the body. Therefore, when Lao Wu repeatedly emphasized that if he wanted to cultivate, he would cultivate superior martial arts, and he must cultivate all four methods, otherwise the situation in front of him would occur.
If Li Fangrong also practiced the exercises, his gun would not be swept away, but would be released in the form of a gun. In this way, even if the other party opens the qi shield, it will only be a battle for vitality, so that even the spear in his hand will be shocked by others like now.
Li Fangrong looked up at the black ball in front of him, and then at the green sinking dragon spear that fell on the ground in the distance, knowing that he had been defeated, so he arched his hand, walked to the distance without a sound, picked up the spear, and returned to the crowd.
This scene is a little embarrassing, losing two games in a row, making those warriors a little unable to sit still, although they know that they may not have the certainty of winning when they come up, but their own children lose, and their faces still can't hang up, so their faces are not very good-looking.
The saint had spoken before, not letting them go up by themselves, and now they can only hope to see which son's son can win back some face for them.
After a brief commotion, the crowd gradually quieted down. At this time, it was the most embarrassing time, because no one was seen on the field again.
There is no shame in losing, and it is the most humiliating thing to be beaten so that no one dares to play. Xiao Changyi, who was sitting on the high platform, was also a little unable to sit still, no one dared to go into battle after only two defeats, and he, the emperor, was a little embarrassed to sit here.
Gonggong Cao, who was standing on the side, saw that Xiao Changyi's face was a little wrong at this time, so he walked to the front of the stage and shouted before the saint could speak: "But there are still people who are willing to compete?" ”
When everyone heard this, they all looked in the direction where Wu Chen was seated, and they all wanted to see who else was willing to stand up.
No movement......
"Ahem......"
Gonggong Cao coughed embarrassedly twice, cleared his throat and shouted again: "But there are still people who are willing to compete with the Southern Zhao Warriors?" ”
"I'll try it!"
Finally! Someone finally broke this embarrassing scene, whether it was everyone present or Xiao Changyi sitting on the high platform, they were all relieved at this time.
Xiao Changyi called Gonggong Cao to his side and whispered a few words, and Gonggong Cao turned back to the stage and announced loudly: "There is a decree in the saint!" No matter who wins or loses this third competition, today's contest is over, and the civil and military officials and the foreign envoys return to the Lin De Hall to continue the previous banquet, and the Holy Admiral will give additional rewards to the envoys who came to pay tribute. ”
After Shao Xi heard Xiao Changyi's will, he also shook his head helplessly. Truly! If you lose three games in a row, there is no need to compare, instead of being embarrassed here, it is better to set a number of games in advance, regardless of winning or losing, and leave after the fight, so as not to be as embarrassed as just now. In addition, additional rewards were given to these envoys, which meant that "the hush money has been given to you, so don't be foolish when you go back." ”
It wasn't until he heard the holy decree that the big guy remembered who just shouted "I'll try"? What about people?
