Chapter 11: Under One Breath

Somewhere in a market alley in Chang'an, an ordinary person's house. A young child is squatting in the yard watching the chickens eat rice.

I was watching it with relish, and suddenly there was a whoosh twice, and two huge fireworks bloomed in the sky.

The gorgeous scenery fascinated the child and clapped his hands there, "New Year's Day, fireworks, mom, come and watch the fireworks..."

He didn't notice that the dark corners of the moonlight, which he couldn't see, had already jumped past two groups of swift figures, so fast that they seemed to leave only illusory fragments in the moonlight.

"Fill in two teams again?" Cao Liang, the ghost slayer captain in charge of the fifth part, was almost furious.

"Yes, yes, yes. "The falconry who came to report almost didn't dare to speak.

"There are four teams of people in front of and behind!" "What the hell is it! Kill my brother to death!" Cao Liang muttered to himself angrily. In the end, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind to report it, whether he surrendered his guilt or accepted punishment, in short, he couldn't let his life fill in in vain.

Cao Liang waved his hand to get the falconer back down and let him return to the front line. Wait a minute, but stop the falconer again. "Go back to the front line, don't die!"

The falcon was stunned for a moment, clenched his fists heavily, and quickly withdrew and ran to the front line again.

The situation was urgent, so the boss immediately made a decision to temporarily form a special part of the fifth part and the fourth part where Li Zhi and his team were located. Let's go to Chang'an Lile Fang to kill ghosts.

According to the information transmitted by the front-line falconry, there are only three ghosts. Although ghosts usually act alone, there are occasional cases where they happen to be together. But this time there was something special. These ghosts work with each other, and that's terrifying. This means that ghosts will cooperate with each other like humans, and even form simple tactics. Originally, what I met tonight were three "Hyakme" ("目": The way to divide the strength and weakness of ghosts, and the long-term experience of fighting ghosts gave Zhenanji a general understanding of the strength of ghosts. The more people who eat ghosts, the stronger their own strength becomes, and the ghosts that eat about 10 people are called 10 eyes, the ghosts that eat about 100 people are called 100 eyes, and the ghosts that eat 1,000 people are called 100 eyes. Now that the three ghosts know how to work together, the damage will only increase exponentially.

In the past, falconry as an outpost force, often suffered fewer casualties, but this time the casualties of falconry were also very large, the position of the three ghosts seemed to draw a defensive circle, but whoever went in was almost impossible to come out alive, in the circle the ghosts will frantically attack all the creatures they see, but once out of the circle, the ghosts will not pursue. In short, the ghosts I encountered today have different ways of acting than usual, revealing weirdness everywhere. And these news were all exchanged for human lives by the falconry brothers.

The only good news tonight is that the defensive circle formed by these three ghosts seems to be guarding something, so they don't move around like the usual ghosts. The ghosts are there! All the ghost slayers who rushed to the Rite Shop tonight will come back with no way to live, and there is only one way to die.

After listening to the battle situation on the front line, all the ghost slaying looked extremely solemn and did not say a word. Even Wang Jingwang, who is usually full of nonsense and the most unserious, looks more serious than usual. It's very rare, just before leaving, I said, "You must remember what I said on the first day I took you." Then they got on their horses and rushed to the Rite Music Workshop.

When there was still a two-mile journey away from the Rite Music Workshop, the members of the special editor abandoned their horses one after another. Once a creature like a horse is brought to the battlefield with the same ghosts, it can only die in vain if it occupies space in the streets and alleys to hinder the battle. Patting the horses' buttocks, the horses became very spiritual and ran back to Zhen'ansi.

The special editors jumped up to the wall, twinkling between the roof tiles.

After a while, they arrived at Lile Fang, and the surrounding residents and people in the shops had already been cleaned up by Xuanwu Wei to avoid unnecessary casualties. Now in the distance, Li Zhi can already see the figure that also stands on the wall in the distance. It's one of them, and the other two may be hiding in the shadows, nowhere to be seen.

Cao Liang is the temporary lieutenant who leads the special formation. From the gestures he made, the ghosts immediately understood the intention of this battle. The enemy is strong and will cooperate. Then we'll break it individually.

Cao Liang took the lead in drawing his knife and took the lead, and all the ghosts followed.

According to the usual assumptions, the range covered by the attack of so many people can be called pervasive, which is simply a luxury for killing a ghost.

But everyone was wrong, and the ghost first made a movement like a human breath, and took a deep breath, what a long breath it was. The powerful suction almost takes people to that outlet.

When this breath ended, Li Zhi saw an unforgettable scene in his life.

The ghost's body first swelled violently, like a pig's skin with full air, and then, as if compressing all the flesh and blood into one place, forced the qi into both arms. The body was back to normal, but the arms were the size of a fan, and the muscles on them were rocky.

Even a ghost obviously couldn't withstand such a drastic change in the structure of its body for a moment, faintly visible in the moonlight, and black blood was constantly pouring out of the bursting veins of its arm.

The ghost began to spin on the spot, and the speed was so fast, and the strong wind brought by the rotation made the slash of the knife in the air obviously resisted. The body drove the two giant arms to rotate, like a city wall made of iron, covering the weaknesses of the whole body.

Although there are many details, the real situation happened between the lightning and flint, and Cao Liang's knife that pierced the night sky has arrived.

Then there was a loud clash of gold and stone, and then there was. Cao Liang's whole person turned sideways and flew out. A team in the special arrangement had to change the knife posture and land to save Cao Liang. The others remained the same, swinging their knives forward.

Sometimes, even if you know you're going to lose, you can't give back.

This time, everyone did not rush up and cut it, but dispersed their positions. This ghost is obviously surprisingly powerful, and it only attacks a single point, and none of the slashing ghosts present are sure to break it. Besides, this ghost uses a very peculiar way of attacking. It is to constantly drive the two arms to rotate, which is both an attack and a defense. The strongest arm is on the outside, and the weaker body is on the inside.

Therefore, there are only two choices left in front of the ghost slayer. One, it is to wait for this ghost to run out of physical strength and stop, and then divide and take it. But will the oni's physical strength be exhausted? Will there be so much time for the special editor?

Then the second option is left, and someone goes up to block its attack and let its spin stop a little. So that others can seize this opportunity to attack the demon's weakness.

Li Zhi was about to step forward and ask for his own life and take on the task of "sending him to death". As soon as he made a move, he was pressed on the shoulder. "Don't rely on your special constitution to rush to death. Boy, it's not your turn yet. It was Wang Jingwang whispering in Li Zhi's ear.

And at this time, a captain has already stepped forward. Fist at everyone. It's all in plain sight.

Then he rushed towards the ghost with a horizontal knife in his hand without hesitation. When there were still about three steps away, he jumped high and wanted to take advantage of the falling momentum to complete a powerful slash. A knife went down and cut off the ghost's left hand, even if the captain boasted of outstanding martial arts, he only cut into it by more than an inch. The left hand was slashed, but the ghost's right hand slammed into the captain with the inertia of its body rotation.

Could it be that he was shot away like Cao Liang again?

No, things have taken a turn for the better. A normal person, after completing a blow, completes a breath when the blood rush force has been exhausted between breaths, that is, the so-called "between breaths". If you want to complete another blow next, you need to get up again, and then complete a full breath. But the captain is under a breath, and there is still half a breath!

I saw that the captain took off the knife with his right hand, and his left foot was diagonally on the ghost's body, and his whole body moved horizontally to the right. Take the knife with your left hand, put your right foot against the roof of the house, and use the knife as a wall, already ready to resist the attack, and remove the fierce posture. At the same time, it was accompanied by an angry roar of "Up!"

Everyone came back to their senses and understood the captain's intentions, and they stepped on the direction to aim at the flaws that were about to be exposed, and attacked. This captain, with a half-breathed stroke of genius, exchanged for the flaws that this ghost revealed at the moment when the spinning offensive was stalled. And all you can do is to seize this opportunity, kill ghosts, and never let the opportunity slip away from under the knife!

Li Zhi and Wang Jingwang chose to attack this ghost from above their heads in the air. Each of the three had swept into the air.

At this moment, all the movements slowed down, and when the ghost's right arm was about to touch the captain's blade, and the ghost's knife was about to fall on the ghost, a giant bird of astonishing size swept out of the air, and a violent wind rolled up out of thin air, blowing everyone's standing in all directions. even knocked the three Li Zhi who jumped in the air to the ground.

Li Zhi, who fell heavily to the ground, was finally only seen in the afterglow, half of the blade slashed into the sky, followed by a large amount of blood flowers.
