Volume 2 Chapter 21 Halfway Attack
Cheng Peng felt that God had really opened his eyes today, not only let the kid leave the town, but also left him behind in the back of the convoy, providing himself with an excellent sneak attack, and what made him even happier was that at this time, there was a rapid sound of "kicking, kicking" horses' hooves behind him.
Some people are happy, and some people are worried.
Cai Qi got up late this morning, full of remorse, and just kept his head down and hurried, where would he have thought that the pedestrians on the side of the road would burst out and hurt people, and he was kicked away before he could resist.
Cheng Peng landed steadily on the saddle, and as soon as he tightened the reins with both hands, the horse continued to gallop forward without stopping.
On the Yellow Clay Avenue, Qian Yu was thinking about how to maximize the power of the "Shadow Thorn", how to combine the "Shadow Thorn" and the "Wuji Eight Styles" Fusion use, at this time just raised the arm, the leg capacity is about to be released, there was a slight vibration in the brain, and at the same time heard the sound of the horse's hooves behind him, hurriedly moved to the side of the road, squinted sideways, and caught a glimpse of the rolling dust in the corner of his eye, a tall figure was rising from the horse's back, the evil tiger pounced on himself, subconsciously accelerated, leaving a phantom shadow punched through by the sneak attacker, and he had rushed ten meters away.
Qian Yu didn't need to look back to see that the sneak attacker must be a purple-clothed warrior! A few hurried points under his feet rushed out more than ten meters forward in an instant.
Cheng Peng never expected that the punch he was proud of would hit the air, and he couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, and with a slight touch of his feet on the ground, his body took advantage of the momentum to rise into the air, and quickly pounced on Qianyu, sticking to Qianyu like a maggot attached to a bone.
The convoy traveled for most of the day, and Aunt Jin and the others in the carriage were drowsy.
"Not good!" Xiao Bai and Condensation Bing heard a sharp warning whistle outside the car, and a fierce spirit jumped out of the car and ran to the back of the convoy.
More than a dozen guards of the convoy also noticed the anomaly behind the convoy, and the convoy stopped in a shouting formation, maintaining a vigilant formation, and two or three other guards hurried to support.
Cheng Peng was a little crazy, in less than two days, this kid's body was a few points faster than last time, he was able to pounce behind Qianyu several times, and was about to exert his strength, but an afterimage disappeared in front of him, and when he saw that he was about to fly, how could he not be anxious in his heart.
Qian Yu was also very anxious in his heart, he only cared about practicing, but he didn't think that the other party would dare to carry out a sneak attack in broad daylight, a little unexpected, less than a hundred meters away from the vehicle in front of him, he actually used three shadow stabs in a short period of time and still couldn't get rid of the other party, the load on the body was extremely great, and the leg muscles came with a tearing feeling.
Qian Yu saw Xiao Bai and Condensation Ice in front of him, his heart was settled, and he twisted his body in the air and faced backwards, a big palm was printed on his chest, and with a grip on his right hand, an iron rod appeared in his hand like a trick, and the big palm that hit his chest was not able to close the momentum, "poof", the iron rod passed through the palm of his hand, and stabbed into the opponent's shoulder.
Cheng Peng was furious, regardless of the sharp pain from his body, he bent down and kicked his legs, kicking heavily in Qianyu's chest and abdomen, Qianyu didn't have time to dodge, and at the same time as being kicked away, the iron rod brought out a blood line and flew out, and both of them fell to the ground.
Qian Yu covered his chest with his left hand, and the iron rod in his right hand supported the ground, although there was a sharp pain between his ribs, he still didn't dare to relax his vigilance, raising his head and staring at the other party tightly.
Cheng Peng sat on the ground, his left hand covering his right shoulder, his right hand clenched into a fist, and blood dripped from between his fingers.
Cheng Peng got up and was about to attack, when he suddenly leaned back vigilantly, dodging the two small flying knives that shot at him, only to see that the two women had bypassed Qianyu and pounced on him one after the other.
Cheng Peng staggered to dodge the girl holding a double dagger in front of him, and hit the short stick of the petite girl in the air behind him with both fists, and with a loud bang, the two flew out at the same time.
The condensation ice rubbed his body up.
Cheng Peng originally planned to force the petite girl back first, turn around and deal with the other one, but he didn't expect that the seemingly petite girl was born with great strength, and was hit by the opponent's volley, and her right fist was injured again, breaking a middle finger bone, and at the same time causing the recurrence of the old disease in the chest.
Cheng Peng quickly swept around and found that he had been surrounded by the three of them in a three-legged position.
If you weren't injured before, even if the other three combined, you still have a chance of winning, now... , Cheng Peng was a little hesitant.
Qianyu and the other three also exchanged glances with each other, and the dog would jump off the wall if he was in a hurry, maybe the other party still had a back hand, and he didn't dare to rush forward for a while.
The two sides were at a stalemate for a moment, and Cheng Peng moved and rushed towards Qianyu first.
Xiao Bai and Condensation were shocked, one left and one right accelerated from the side, but they didn't expect the other party to just shake a shot, not advancing but retreating, retreating rapidly from the gap between the two women, and then turning around and running away after breaking through.
Ginger is still old and spicy. Qian Yu endured the pain and sighed, a large cold sweat slipped down his forehead, and the pain in his chest couldn't even be repaired for a while, it seemed that the ribs were broken, but I don't know how many were broken?
"Poof", a mouthful of blood spurted on the ground, Qianyu ran around for a few days, repeatedly responded, at this time was hit hard, a breath of heart to hold on to the present, and finally witnessed the strong enemy retreat, can no longer support it, the eyes are dark, and the consciousness slowly falls into darkness.
Several times, Qianyu's consciousness was hazy, feeling as if he was in a roaring furnace, with a splitting headache, his body was weak, his eyelids were as heavy as lead, and he couldn't open them, and sometimes he felt that there was a breeze blowing on his body, which was extremely cool and comfortable, and he fell asleep in a trance, and so on.
Aunt Jin looked at Qianyu who was sleeping again, her jade hand probed her forehead, her hands were still as hot as a soldering iron, she couldn't help sighing, took the silk handkerchief that Xiaobai had wrung with water, and gently wiped Qianyu's forehead and hands and feet.
A day and a night passed, Aunt Jin couldn't hide her tiredness, but she still couldn't rest assured, and insisted on staying by Qianyu's side with Xiaobai.
In the early morning, Qianyu's high fever finally subsided, and he woke up, and there was still a silk handkerchief on his forehead that showed a hint of coolness.
When I opened my eyes, I saw Aunt Jin's concerned eyes at first glance, those extremely good-looking eyes seemed to be able to speak, looking at myself worriedly, turning my head slightly to see Xiaobai lying beside him like a shrimp, a small hand was still gently on his fingers, and in an instant I felt as if there was a warm current hitting my heart, slowly flowing in my heart, and my eyes were instantly moist.
It's nice that so many people care about themselves.
Qianyu smiled at Aunt Jin, signaling that she was fine, her hands were slightly propped up, and she was about to sit up, when Xiaobai's fingers moved, she also woke up, and hurriedly helped Qianyu up with Aunt Jin and sat cross-legged.
A faint incense lingered in the carriage, and Qian Yu was soon settled.
Last night, more than 20 cars had set up camp in the roadside clearing, and early in the morning, a large cauldron had been set up next to the convoy, and breakfast was made with a clanging bell.
The leader of the team is called "Uncle Nine", and he is also the first group of people to come to the town after the reconstruction of the town, medium height, after taking over the business of the team between the town and Longines a few years ago, his figure began to be a little blessed, but his popularity is very good, and he is happy all day long.
The convoy has 20 trucks, the car has a priceless snow country cold jade bottom, can ensure that the loaded items will not rot within half a month, the birds and animals produced in the town are often out of stock in the Longines country, and the various seafood produced in the Longines country greatly make up for and improve the lack of food in the town, the team goes back and forth once a week, often very profitable.
The convoy guards are all hired temporarily, there are many good players in the town, and the most important thing is the master, besides, after this road was cleaned up by Uncle Fan and them more than ten years ago, there is no longer the idea of a rogue who is not long-eyed to fight the convoy, just to prevent accidents, Uncle Nine usually hires some people as temporary guards, they are all acquaintances, and they know the roots.
However, no matter how profitable the team is, the snow country cold jade is worth a lot of money, and at this time, in Uncle Jiu's mind, it can't match the two cars.
On one car sat the goddess in his mind, and he was also his god of wealth, because the inn almost contracted a large amount of seafood shipped back from Longines, and on the other car sat the little brother who Uncle Fan had thousands of instructions, which of these two had an accident and there was no place to put his old face, no, this time he hired five more guards.
I didn't think that yesterday that young man had an accident under his nose, and he hated Uncle Jiu's teeth itching, and he couldn't wait to catch the sneak attacker and cramp and peel his skin.
I went to visit several times yesterday, and the young man was in a coma, and after stewing a pot of meat porridge early this morning, Uncle Nine hurriedly scooped a bowl and sent it over.
When he smelled the aroma of meat porridge, Qianyu also woke up from his meditation, and he hadn't eaten for most of the day, and he was already hungry.
Under the repair of soul energy, Qianyu's physical recovery ability is really amazing, and after just an hour of meditation, his movements are basically unhindered, as long as he does not exercise vigorously.
Taking the meat porridge, Qian Yu drank it while listening to the conversation between Aunt Jin and Uncle Jiu.
"Uncle Nine, you're about to reach the City of Ruins. ”
"Huh. Before Uncle Jiu could speak, he habitually laughed twice, "Yes, I met a lot of people on the road yesterday who rushed over there, and I had long heard that someone was going to ascend to the Ascension Tower in the Ruined City, but I didn't expect it to be in these two days, this is a big deal." ”
"Ah, there are still people who want to ascend, it's not easy. Aunt Jin shook her head when she heard this.
Qian Yu was confused when he heard this, it was the first time he heard about the ascension, and he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Uncle Jiu, can people really ascend?"
"Of course you can, there was a successful ascension more than 20 years ago, I have seen it with my own eyes, a white light flashed, and the person disappeared, it was really amazing. "Uncle Nine is very proud, "But I heard that there are also those who have failed to ascend, and only a pile of bones remains." ”
"The empire I saw was not yet united, and the nine Ascension Towers were scattered across different small countries. After the unification of the empire, it occupied eight Ascension Towers, but later the Empire stipulated that cultivators who intend to ascend to heaven need to report and pass the examination in the Empire, and only those who pass will have the opportunity to use the Ascension Towers, and since then it seems that no one in the Empire has flown up. The remaining Ascension Tower is in the ruined city, which is under the jurisdiction of the Longines country, however, as a vassal state of the empire, it stands to reason that the Longines country will generally communicate with the empire and decide whether to use it or not. This time, somehow, Longines actually agreed, and it was the first time in twenty years that it was used, which was really strange. "Uncle Nine is also confused, but no one will miss such a major event.
"Aunt Kim?"
As if she had a heart in her heart, Aunt Jin instantly understood Qianyu's thoughts, and said with a smile: "If you want to go, you can go, it's okay to open your eyes." ”
