Chapter 60: Danger lurks
The angry black tiger involuntarily took a few steps back, he had already learned the power of the Demon Slaying Sword in the God Realm back then, so he had to use the stealth technique to hide in the pile of abandoned houses to temporarily avoid its edge. Zhiming also followed.
It's full of broken rubble, and there's not a trace of life. Excalibur seemed to have created a driving force of its own, dragging Shinai towards the enemy.
In front of it is a pile of waste rock, which is not easy to pass. Suddenly, countless stones flew in, and Zhiming used his divine sword to block the stones one by one.
Suddenly, a boulder flew up, and with a sword he slashed it, and the boulder was split in half and flew to both sides.
He rushed to the side of the stone pile and let out a sword qi that shook all the stones away, and the angry black tiger hiding behind the stone pile was also injured by the rubble.
The Furious Black Tiger used his movement technique again, and countless tiles flew from the left and right sides. Zhiming soared into the air and jumped onto the roof. The angry black tiger waved his hand, and all the tiles flew towards him together.
Zhiming used his sword dance to defeat all the flying tiles. The angry black tiger waved his hand again, and the tiled house under Zhiming's feet began to collapse. He hurriedly jumped out, and escaped at the last moment, fortunately not being pressed by the rubble.
The angry black tiger opened its mouth and spewed fire. Zhiming was unhurried, holding the Excalibur and absorbing all the fire.
The Angry Black Tiger struck a wave of qi power with both palms, and the Excalibur rebounded all of its power. The angry black tiger was startled, and quickly jumped up, and the qigong wave exploded behind him.
In the face of the Excalibur, the Angry Black Tiger was helpless, because he was injured by the gravel just now, which caused the recurrence of the old wound on his chest, he was no longer able to attack, and could only use spells, but the current situation was extremely unfavorable to him.
Zhiming raised the Excalibur and shouted: "Angry Black Tiger, accept the power of the Excalibur!"
The angry black tiger threw a small black ball at him, and it exploded with a "bang", and suddenly there was a burst of smoke in front of him, and Zhiming couldn't see its trace clearly.
"Smoke bombs?" Zhiming passed through the smoke and could no longer see anyone.
He knew that the Furious Black Tiger wouldn't be able to run far, as Excalibur continued to drag him away.
"Isn't this the direction from which you came?" He suddenly realized that the angry black tiger might be going to kill Liu Bei, so he rushed as fast as he could.
Sure enough, the angry black tiger thought that since he couldn't kill Zhiming at the moment, it was better to kill Liu Bei first, and go back to ask Cao Cao for credit, maybe he could get an important minister of the court to be a minister, so that he could control the court more deeply and lay the foundation for the comeback of the White Tigers, because he was the only one among the eight tiger kings who could stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Cao Cao was very guarded, and after absorbing the White Tiger Team, he deliberately invested heavily to let Tianfeng build his headquarters in Wuhu Mountain outside Xuchang City, not far from the imperial court, so that he could not pose a threat to himself, but also could control them at all times. For this reason, Tianfeng also deliberately used the excuse of facilitating contact to arrange for the angry black tiger to lurk by Cao Cao's side for a long time, as an internal response to launch a rebellion in the future.
The angry black tiger didn't know that the Demon Slaying Sword had the function of detecting the enemy's position, so he came to the tree and prepared to give Liu Bei a break. Suddenly, the Excalibur automatically detached from Zhiming's hand and flew straight away like a bolt of lightning.
The angry black tiger sensed the sword qi and hurriedly used the stealth technique to dodge. Excalibur plunged into the trunk of the tree.
Zhiming rushed here, but he couldn't feel the breath of the other party for a while. He came to Liu Bei's side and pulled out the divine sword.
At this moment, the angry black tiger was lurking in a nearby tree, holding its breath and thinking hard about countermeasures.
At this time, Zhiming could not judge his position by the change of air current, so he could only use his eyes to search, and the Excalibur had temporarily lost its function of detecting its location due to the excessive energy consumed during the battle just now.
The angry black tiger planned to send out a qigong wave directly on the tree and kill the two of them together.
Zhiming suddenly felt a slight change in the airflow behind him, and quickly looked back and saw the angry black tiger in the tree.
"Suffer death!" the angry black tiger struck with a palm.
Zhiming created a qigong wall in an instant, blocking the qigong wave. The angry black tiger was shocked, he didn't expect the opponent's defense to be so strong.
As soon as Zhiming exerted his strength, the qigong wall rolled back the qigong wave like a huge wave. The angry black tiger hurriedly jumped off the tree, and suddenly the big tree was shaken off from the middle by the qigong wave, and the broken tree pressed this way. He jerked out of the way.
Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, Zhiming flew away with a sword quickly. The furious black tiger couldn't dodge, and was once again impaled in the chest, this time in the heart.
The Excalibur emitted a strong electric current, and the angry black tiger was electrocuted to death. He vomited blood from his mouth and fell to the ground, and before he died, he sent a signal light into the sky with his index finger. He didn't expect that the White Tigers had been galloping in the world for more than 20 years, but they were ruined by a sudden stinky boy. Of course, it wouldn't be surprising if he knew that Zhiming was the son of the Holy Sword.
This time, Zhiming finally really solved the angry black tiger. He couldn't figure out why Excalibur would attack the enemy on its own, so he asked the old fairy for advice.
The old immortal said: "The world is unpredictable, and I don't know very well, because generally speaking, although the divine sword has spirituality, it still has to act according to the will of the master. Since it chose to save Liu Bei this time, it means that Dahan still needs him. That's all we can understand at the moment. ”
Zhiming nodded and said, "Yes, before the Han family was settled, Uncle Liu Huang couldn't die, I didn't expect that even Shenjian would have this kind of awareness." ”
"Alright, wake him up, the battle isn't over yet. The old fairy urged.
Zhiming took the divine sword back and woke Liu Bei up. Liu Bei slowly opened his eyes, saw him, and asked strangely, "Zhiming, why are you here? Where is this? What's wrong with me?"
Zhiming helped him up and asked, "Uncle Huang, don't you remember what happened just now?"
Liu Bei felt dizzy. He recalled for a moment and said, "I remember, just now I was fighting with Cao Bing with Liu Mi and his son, and suddenly I saw an old man wrapped in a black cloth shouting for help, so I wanted to go over and help him." As soon as I walked up to him, I was touched on the head by him, and then I didn't know what happened. ”
Zhiming pointed to the angry black tiger on the ground and asked, "Is it him?"
Liu Bei then noticed that there was a person lying there, walked over to take a look, recognized his eyebrows as white, and said, "Yes, it's him!
"He is the general of the White Tigers, disguised as a common man, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate the emperor's uncle. Fortunately, I came in time, otherwise Uncle Huang would be in danger. "Zhiming has a past.
Liu Bei said gratefully: "Zhiming, you have saved me twice in a row, I really don't know what to say!"
Zhiming said: "It's nothing, it is the duty of subordinates to protect the lord." Unfortunately, the two ladies and the young master have disappeared, and Brother Zilong has gone to look for them. Let's go back to the brigade first. ”
"Alas, for the sake of my cheap life, I have suffered this group of people!" Liu Bei complained to himself. As an army leader, when he learned that his wife and children had disappeared, the first thing he thought of was the common people, which may be the reason why the public is willing to swear to die with his feet, Zhiming thought.
"Uncle Huang, don't say that, we all hope that Uncle Huang will build a strong team that can compete with Cao's army in the future, so that we will follow you so far. Don't talk about that yet, let's go back. ”
Zhiming and Liu Bei got on their horses and galloped away in the direction of the main army.
Although Liu Bei picked up a life, however, there are more and more crises in the future. The intervention of the White Tigers made this chase more bloody and cruel, not only Liu Bei and Zhiming, but even Zhao Yun, who had experienced a hundred battles, almost lost his life.
At this moment, Zhao Yun must work hard to find Liu Bei's wife and children, otherwise he will not be able to face the lord.
Alone, he carried a gun and searched around. Suddenly, he met a group of stragglers of Cao Jun, so he stepped forward with a gun.
When Cao Bing saw that the enemy was coming, they rushed forward one after another. Zhao Yun's marksmanship was like the wind, and Cao Bing was knocked off his horse one after another. The more he fought, the more courageous he became, and he slaughtered the enemy army like birds and beasts.
He had been chasing and killing for five or six miles, and suddenly remembered his task, and hurriedly turned his horse back, thinking: "This is too bad, the lord entrusted his wife and the young master to me, but I only care about killing the enemy, in case I can't find them, how can I substitute for the lord?"
At this time, he met a group of people who had fled. He called out to the two ladies loudly, but the cries of the people shook the sky and covered his cry.
Zhao Yun looked around, but he didn't see anyone, and he was anxious for a while.
At this time, another group of cavalry came in the distance, firing arrows at the crowd. In an instant, countless people fell to the ground with arrows.
An arrow shot straight at Zhao Yun's heart. He swung his silver spear, and the arrow broke in two in the air.
Zhao Yun was furious, rushed over and opened a killing ring, killing Cao Bing back. He directed the rest of the people in the direction of the brigade and then continued on his way.
After walking a little further, he suddenly found a bloody man lying in the grass next to him, beckoning to him. He dismounted and approached to see that it was his own wounded soldier, and there were several corpses of enemy soldiers lying beside him.
The soldier was hit by an arrow in the thigh, and blood flowed profusely. Seeing Zhao Yun coming, he endured the severe pain and said, "General Zhao, you are here, I have something to report!"
Zhao Yun asked him if he had seen the lady and the young master, and he pointed in one direction and said, "The two ladies and the young master were escorted over there by our people. ”
Zhao Yun helped the soldier pull out the arrow, tore off a piece of cloth from his clothes, helped him bandage the wound briefly, and after a few words of comfort, he hurriedly rode his horse and galloped away in the direction he was pointing.
He rode his horse to Nagasaka Slope. Suddenly, a voice came from the miscellaneous bushes next to him: "General Zhao, please stay!"
Zhao Yun reined in his horse and saw another wounded soldier lying in the bushes with an injured arm, so he asked him what was going on. The wounded soldier said: "I just escorted my wife and the young master here with a few companions, but I was caught up by Cao Bing and cut down with a knife. ”
"What about them, ma'am?"
"He has been escorted to the south, followed by some old people, women and children. ”
Zhao Yun had no time to treat his wounds, so he comforted him with the same words and continued to go south.
After walking for a while, he finally saw the figure of his own troops, and stepped forward and shouted, "Can the two ladies Gan and Mi be there?"
Mrs. Gan heard the voice and walked out of the crowd. Zhao Yun got off the horse and bowed down and said: "Zhao Yun is not effective in protecting his wife, and he deserves death!"
Mrs. Gan burst into tears, and the crowd stopped. Zhao Yun got up and asked, "What about Mrs. Mi and the young master?"
Mrs. Gan cried: "Originally, we were together, but when we met Cao Bing just now, it was a mess, and she didn't know where to go with Adou in her arms." ”
An old man came over with dry food and water and said, "General Zhao has worked hard all the way, hurry up and eat something and replenish it." ”
Zhao Yun wanted to continue looking for people, but he was really hungry and thirsty, so he thanked the old man and devoured it. Indeed, he has to fight and hurry, and it is no wonder that he is not hungry.
After hurriedly eating, Zhao Yun was about to help Mrs. Gan get on the horse, when suddenly there was a loud hoof in front of him, and another Cao army came over.
The crowd was shocked. Zhao Yun, who had just finished replenishing his energy, was full of energy at the moment, he ordered the soldiers to protect the people, and said to Mrs. Gan: "Madame, please wait here, I will kill them!"
He mounted his horse and rode away with his spear against the enemy.
A Cao army under the banner of "Chun" came violently, and the main general was Cao Ren's subordinate general Chun Yudao, who operated a golden axe and cut it straight over. Zhao Yun rushed forward and took the main general.
The two horses docked, and Chun Yu led an axe to chop. Zhao Yun flashed, and at the same time, a diagonal spear pierced his throat. Chun spewed blood at the entrance and turned over and fell off the horse.
Cao Jun was shocked when he saw that the main general was killed in only one round, and he did not dare to fight, and was killed by Zhao Yun in less than a while, leaving a few horses. Zhao Yun asked the horse to be led back to the team.
At this time, there was a shout from behind: "Mrs. Gan, General Zhao!"
Zhao Yun looked back, it was Mi Zhu. He was wounded in the left arm, and even his mount was scarred, and it seemed that he had been through a hard fight before.
Mi Zhu dismounted and said, "I have finally found you! I met a wounded soldier just now, and after asking about it, I found it along the road." ... What about Mrs. Mi and the young master?"
Mrs. Gan said: "I met Cao Jun just now, and I was separated in the chaos. ”
"Huh, what then?" Mi Zhu was shocked. Mrs. Mi is his own sister.
Zhao Yun thought for a while and said, "Zizhong (Mi Zhu's character), you escort Mrs. Gan to Changbanpo first, and then I will go to them." ”
"Well, General, be careful. Mrs. Mi Zhu Fugan got on the horse.
"General Zhao, you must be careful, if you meet my sister and tell her that I am fine, please protect the young master and return safely. Mrs. Gan told him.
Zhao Yun clenched his fists and nodded. Mi Zhu protected Mrs. Gan and went to Nagasaka Slope with everyone.
Zhao Yun turned around and continued to search for people in the other direction, he vowed to find Mrs. Mi and the young master.
