Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
In early spring, everything recovers and is full of vitality.
The melted snow nourishes the parched soil, and moss clings to the rocks in the stone forest.
Zhang Xiaodao squatted on a large stone in the shape of a turtle shell, greedily breathing in the fresh air, and his whole body was covered with sweat, as if he had just been fished up from the river.
'Tick!', Zhang Xiaodao lowered his head, watched the sweat on his bun drip on the boulder full of cracks, and saw that the sweat entered the stone crevice, nourishing the tenacious spring buds in the cracks, and seemed to grow stronger in an instant.
Zhang Xiaodao grinned, feeling a feeling of blood connection coming from his right hand holding the knife, which made him very happy.
This is the result of sweat watering, Zhang Xiaodao has swung the knife thousands of times in the past month, although he has not practiced the moves, but the distance between him and the knife has been infinitely close.
Nowadays, Zhang Xiaodao is completely free to use the knife, although there is no precision control and subtle moves of the knife master, but he can often swing the antelope horn-like magic pen.
Wu Daxiong did not teach him the three knives at the bottom of the box, but let Zhang Xiaodao lay a solid foundation, which is the royal road.
Zhang Xiaodao was not in a hurry to learn the three knives, never complained, and his firm penance impressed Wu Daxiong.
When Zhang Xiaodao looked down at Chunya and secretly wondered if Xiaohualou had also grown green shoots, Wu Daxiong came to the stubborn stone and watched Zhang Xiaodao fan the tip of his nose with his rough palm first.
Zhang Xiaodao watched Wu Daxiong's movements, and was stunned to think that he was a little too addicted this month, and the smell on his body was really unpleasant.
Wu Daxiong looked up at his lush bear face and said in disgust: "It's understandable that Bian Jun'er is unkempt, but are you too stinky?"
Zhang Xiaodao grinned the corners of his mouth and said: "Wipe the snow in winter and soak in the river in summer, but now is the time when the seasons change, the snow is gone, and the river is full of ice ballast, I will go there to wash it?"
Wu Daxiong pointed to the west and said: "There is a hot spring at the junction of Jiading camp and our camp, and there is game on the mountain, which is much stronger than the stone forest where our birds don't. ”
As soon as Zhang Xiaodao heard the game, Harazi almost didn't flow out, and immediately nodded like a chicken eating rice, thinking gratefully that Wu Daxiong knew that he was consuming a lot of physical energy by grinding like this, and it was difficult to maintain it by eating wild vegetables alone, so he had to eat meat, and then said, "Uncle Xiong, thank you first." ”
"Hypocrisy. Wu Daxiong scolded, and then said, "Don't hurry up and pack up and get ready to leave." ”
Zhang Xiaodao immediately rushed to his camp tent in a puff of smoke.

............
The six border passes of the Tang Dynasty and Yizhou stretch for thousands of miles, and the pace of border construction has never stopped in the past ten years, at least eating more than half of the taxes paid by the Tang Dynasty.
However, in fact, if the Great Wilderness comes to commit the first pass, it will definitely not be the border pass of the Tang Dynasty, but the outpost of the Tang Dynasty that goes deep into the territory of the Great Wilderness.
Outside the six border gates, thousands of checkpoints provide first-hand information to the border gates, and these checkpoints naturally have the task of fighting at any time.
Therefore, this is the first gate of the Tang Dynasty and the real front-line battlefield.
This is also the reason why the border soldiers will be particularly solemn when they walk out of the border pass, because the border soldiers understand that once they walk out of the border pass and enter the outpost, they will be in danger of dying at any time.
In the past ten years, the people of the Great Wilderness have not been able to see the majestic buildings of the border passes, and the small-scale friction has all been born in the outposts, and in the past three years, this friction has become less and less, and this place has been completely occupied by the Tang Dynasty.
Although Wu Daxiong wanted Zhang Xiaodao to eat more meat, he came to the intersection of the Jiawu Battalion and the Jiading Battalion because he wanted to build another outpost on the mountain with hot springs.
The name of the mountain is Fan, and the full name is Fanshan.
At this time, countless ancient trees in the sky are full of green, although they are not towering, but there are very few roads that people can walk here, and it can be seen that the strategic nature of this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Wu Daxiong and fifty of the guards came on foot, and when they arrived here, it was already dusk, and when they were wondering whether to go up the mountain to get some game, they saw dozens of people rushing out of the only way on the mountain.
These men wore light armor, carried hardwood bows and arrows, and straddled standard knives.
For a short man, he also has a huge black mole on his face, and with his dark skin, it is so ugly that people don't even have the ability to speak.
"Two words!" Wu Daxiong shouted.
The ugly Linglu beckoned from a distance and walked over leisurely.
Zhang Xiaodao's gaze quickly shifted to Lu Erzi's face, and he looked at the tall and tall border soldiers behind him, and now they were carrying a lot of prey on their shoulders, and their eyes suddenly lit up.
In particular, two of them were carrying a bamboo pole, and the four old wild boars on the bamboo pole seemed to make Zhang Xiaodao smell the fragrance.
The distant centaurs walked all the way, accompanied by the afterglow, and the shadows were stretched very long.
Zhang Xiaodao was looking at the four wild boars and drooling in his heart, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a swaying in the green jungle above his vision, and he was immediately shocked.
Naturally, from his experience as a hunter, he could tell that there was an extremely dangerous beast in the swaying woods, and by the slight amplitude, it must have been the beast deliberately hiding, waiting for a fatal blow.
In a very short period of time, Zhang Xiaodao concluded that this beast had some wisdom and could not be compared with mortal things. And at this time, the sheep intestine path where Lu Erzi and the others went down the mountain was extremely rugged and circling, and the mood was extremely relaxed, if the beast suddenly rushed into the team at this time, there would be casualties!
"Be careful!" Zhang Xiaodao blurted out hoarsely, and at this moment, a huge black object in the middle of the mountain quickly came out, as if taking Zhang Xiaodao's shout as an attack signal.
At the end of the team of Lu Erzi and others, several border soldiers suddenly felt that it was dark in front of them, and there was no warmth and light of the afterglow of the sunset, and their hearts suddenly chilled.
Between this lightning and flint, Lu Erzi turned his head and saw the giant beast flying down, his heart was cold, no matter how fast the movement in his hand was, he could no longer rush out when the beast pounced, and everyone in the front row of Wu Daxiong's team also took a step forward with their knives in this instant.
'Ghost Bear' exclaimed in surprise, and the scene suddenly became extremely chaotic.
The Charm Bear is one of the rare spirit animals, not to mention its intelligence, its temperament is cunning to the extreme, its huge size but has agile movements that are completely disproportionate to its huge size, and it is the overlord of the barren mountains.
Rather ride a tiger, don't bully a bear!
This is the survival rule of the old hunters, not that bears are stronger than tigers, but tigers can be killed, but it is difficult to kill bears.
Lu Erzi also understands this truth, he understands that bears have a talent for creatures, they will crawl in the jungle by nature, but they will never get wet.
As a consequence of this, the bear's surface will be stained with sticky gum, which will stick to a qiē thing in the jungle, and then be crushed into a whole under its huge weight, and then stained with gum, and then become a heavy armor comparable to spirit armor.
Sensei said that the standard blade of the border army, even if it is a spiritual weapon, it is difficult to break it at one time.
Lu Erzi is not the only one who understands this truth, the team of the Jiading Battalion understands it, but they are more worried not about how to hurt the Ghost Bear, but because they are worried that once it is allowed to rush into the crowd, the power of the rampage is enough to kill dozens of people in a short period of time, and it will not give them any chance to react at all.
So in between these breaths, many people already had a look of despair in their eyes.
But at this time, a few people at the end of the team who were shrouded in shadows subconsciously rolled out, and drew their blades to turn the sharp points upward, showing the ruthlessness of the old border army.
It's just ruthless to ruthless, they already know that their lives can't be saved, it's just a subconscious action, and after doing a qiē, they can only resign themselves to fate, hoping that their blades can cause a trace of damage to the ghost bear, and lay a foundation for the remaining brothers to kill it after their death.
In fact, long before this resignation, as early as when Zhang Xiaodao shouted 'Be careful', he instinctively drew out the white jade bow and pulled out a Qingling arrow.
The bowstring is like a full moon, and the green feather is like a meteor.
After Qingling's arrow left the bowstring, the picture in front of everyone's eyes began to darken.
The reason for the black is extremely simple, with the trajectory of the Qingling arrow, no matter the weeds and doubts along the road, all the stones seem to feel a huge suction, matching the flash of the Qingling arrow.
When the color of the too rich color is crushed, it naturally turns black, and it becomes an indispensable part of the night - the night!
The sudden arrow of the night left only a flash of light in people's pupils, and then vanished, and when it reappeared, it was already the head of the ghostly bear.
"Poof!" the green feather arrow struck the bear as it swooped down, and a stream of white and red liquid appeared in mid-air.
There was no roar of pain, the sudden cluster of arrows was too short-lived, and disappeared in an instant, and the Charm Bear didn't feel any pain at all, but felt a tremendous force moving its massive body sideways.
Immediately afterward, it felt a sharp pain, and its large mouth full of rancid blood was half opened, and it was about to express the sharp pain, but it was black in front of it.
The second Blue Feather Arrow pierced the Bear's right eye before it could hit the ground.
"Boom!" the bear smashed into the dense forest outside the sheep intestine trail, directly slapping the green shoots that had just emerged in the land into green juice.
Immediately afterwards, the border soldiers were stunned, and after an instant, Lu Erzi came to the front of the ghost bear, and his hands clenched the handle of the knife and stabbed it fiercely in its neck, but there was a sharp metal collision sound.
More than twenty long knives followed, and everyone seemed to be crazy to slash the ghostly bear.
The screams of the grief finally came to an abrupt end with the bloody mouth of the Charm Bear's growth, and the strength of the border army to chop it into flesh was too terrifying, and more importantly, the two arrows pierced its head and made its body no longer obey.
The murderous scene ends after a stick of incense after the bear is cut off.
The frightened two teams of people hurriedly withdrew from the sheep intestine path, completely walked out of the mountains, sat on the ground one by one, and breathed heavily.
After recovering a little, everyone stared at Zhang Xiaodao, who was sad at this time, and someone in the guards gave Zhang Xiaodao a thumbs up, and someone said, "Good job." ”
Those border soldiers who were originally at the end of the team and were bound to die were even more sincerely grateful.
At the end, Lu Erzi looked at Wu Daxiong and asked, "Where did you find it?"
Wu Daxiong didn't know that Zhang Xiaodao still had this hand, but he just smiled, feeling that his face was full of light.
Seeing that Wu Daxiong would only be stinky, Lu Erzi patted his ass and stood up, and said to Zhang Xiaodao, who was surrounded by the crowd: "Little brother, this kindness is remembered, when do you want us to pay it back, just speak." ”
As soon as Lu Erzi spoke, everyone finally stopped making noise, but Zhang Xiaodao rubbed his temples and said, "Nima, you have to pay it back now." ”
Bian Jun'er naturally doesn't care about dirty words, especially when it comes to life-saving benefactors.
But saying that I owe you a favor, you will have to pay it back immediately, which is a bit petty, just when the border soldiers of the Jiading camp suddenly felt that they had a good impression of this life-saving benefactor. Zhang Xiaodao cried and said: "It's getting dark soon, my arrow is shooting into the mountains, hurry up and find it for Lao Tzu." ”
Lu Erzi laughed, and everyone laughed too, it turned out that it was because of this.
"It's laughing, that arrow is the lifeblood of Lao Tzu, don't hurry up. ”
Lu Erzi immediately shouted: "Go and find it, I am stunned and dry, and I will look for Lao Tzu." ”
"Yes, pout, be careful. Zhang Xiaodao roared loudly.
