Chapter 60: Chivalry
The three-headed mount just carried Lu Yang and the other six people out of the encirclement, but they still did not get out of this Jedi Snow Valley of death, the leader of these ice wolves was killed by Lu Yang and the arrow ranger together, and the wolves lost the leader wolf head, grief and horror, but also added a bit of bloodthirsty ferocity. Between the snow valley and ice forest, you can see the shadow of the wolf everywhere, and the sound of the long howl no matter how far or near it is, it makes people feel like a thorn in the back, and the heart is cold.
The horses galloped, but fortunately the horses were very strong, and in an instant they were out of the snow valley and ran on the vast ice field, free from the pursuit of the wolves.
After running for a long time, they found a tall mountain rock, and the leader of the swordsman, who had been wearing a hat, jumped off his horse and rested with them.
"Hahaha! Little brother is really skilled! If you hadn't killed the wolf king with your last sword, which terrified the wolves, we wouldn't have had such a good chance to escape. Please also ask, this little brother has a big name?" The rough man who had made the big knife before turned over and dismounted, gave Lu Yang a thumbs up, and praised again and again.
"Don't dare to be, in Xia Lu Yang, he was also besieged by wolves before, if it weren't for your brothers, Lu Yang wouldn't be able to break out of the wolves. Lu Yang smiled and saluted the big man, and said with a fist. He had been lying under the frozen tree for a long time, and he was also very impressed by the methods and bravery of these people, and then asked: "Heroes and heroes, I admire you a lot, and ask all the knights with their names?"
"Xiaoyou is polite, my name is Mu Hantian, and I am the eldest of our five brothers, so they all call me the eldest brother. Among the group, the swordsman at the front lifted the hat, revealing his slightly vicissitudes of life, and smiled gently at Lu Yang. There is a poem that says:
The young man left his hometown and sailed alone, and the warm wine and cold sword were sparse.
The ancient road Qingshan once saw me, and the rivers and lakes were a few sunsets.
Lu Yang was slightly shocked in his heart, this Mu Hantian's appearance looked like an ordinary person, but when he drew his sword to the wolves, Lu Yang could most directly feel the monstrous sword intent aroused from this ordinary man, as if he was a sharp sword, not out of the sheath, when it was unsheathed, it was like an angry dragon tumbling out of the sea, tearing all the enemies in front of him to pieces. This kind of cultivation is really extraordinary.
"My name is Fu Chunlei! Like him, because he has been in the Northern Regions for a long time, he is nicknamed Fu Chunlei, the sword demon of Saibei. The big man who made the knife was like a bell, grinning, and there was a wild domineering spirit spontaneously. Lu Yang felt that he was like two completely different people compared to Mu Hantian's calm and introverted, but they all came together because of the same goal. At that moment, he stretched out his hands to him, shook them together, and got acquainted with this bold and righteous rough man.
This Fu Chunlei has a temperament like fire, quick righteousness and revenge, and he has never been just forward, crisscrossing the north for more than 20 years, I don't know how many heroes and heroes he has befriended, and how many chivalrous deeds he has done. He rode alone across the cold Guanwai Saibei, holding the cold knife in his hand alone, turning the hatred of his family and country into the anger of revenge burning in his chest.
"My name is Ding Bingfeng! Immediately behind him are brothers surnamed Li, and the two of them are brothers, one is Li Wangye and the other is Li Wangtian, both of whom are from peasant households. The sharpshooter who had ridden with Lu Yang before heartily introduced to Lu Yang, these five brothers are all born with extraordinary talents and strong means, that Li Wangye and Li Wangtian brothers, their bodies are also as strong as a buffalo monster, I am afraid that this body is not small.
Lu Yang was impressed by Ding Bingfeng's extraordinary arrow, and greeted the two Li brothers behind him one by one, these people are all righteous people, with a straightforward temperament, and they can meet such a good man, Lu Yang is also very happy in his heart, but he still has something to understand, so he took the lead in asking Mu Hantiandao: "The ranking means are strong, and the knight is on the side, but why did they come to this barren and cold border pass together?"
"As the little brother said, these are the obsessions of my five brothers. The crowd lit a bonfire and sat down around the warm flames. Mu Hantian took out several leather bags and distributed them to everyone, which were full of spirits, he took the wine and drank it, and poured a big sip before revealing the reason why the five of them came to the Northern Regions.
It turned out that these five people were all knights on the wandering side, because they heard that the northern wolf clan had recently raised troops to press forward and invaded the border pass. The wolf soldiers are everywhere, and they have broken the Stardew City, which is hundreds of miles away. This group of wolf soldiers are all barbarians, fierce and easy to kill, along the way looting and bloodbathing countless villages on the northern border of the empire, a large number of people fled to the south when they heard the news, the people were tragically warned, displaced, and countless people died under the iron hooves of the wolf soldiers.
Stardew City is known as the second strongest city in the Northern Regions, and it is an important place for soldiers, with many generals and 30,000 defenders in the city. Under the leadership of the defending general, they held on for more than three months, and in these days, they repelled the ferocious attacks of the wolf soldiers more than once, and almost every soldier in the city could not close their eyes all night, exhausted. But the wolves were outnumbered, and they were alone. A large number of wolf soldiers besieged Stardew City, and at the same time, they set up an ambush outside the encirclement and routed the reinforcements who came from Beiyan City after hearing the news.
There was no water or food in the city, and the cold was unbearable. But the soldiers still defended the city, and would rather die than submit to the wolf lord. On the day the wolf soldiers broke the city, Stardew City was slaughtered, and a total of 150,000 soldiers and civilians in the city were not spared.
The five of them are all brave and ambitious people, and they are even more affectionate to each other, like siblings. At that moment, these five people got together, swore an oath of blood, and agreed to go to the border pass to the north together, infiltrate the million wolf soldiers, and assassinate the wolf lord of today's wolf country.
Stardew City was destroyed, and hundreds of thousands of wolf soldiers returned to the Northern Regions, causing an uproar in Zhongzhou. However, although the Tang King was a saint, he lived in the palace for a long time, and was concealed by those powerful ministers who were in the court to conceal the truth about the destruction of Xinglu City. And the attitude of the Chang'an Dynasty towards this is because of a big victory over the Heavenly Wolf Country in the previous degree, and it gave birth to a coquettish spirit and the idea of despising the enemy. They thought that the wolf soldiers had come back this time, and that as long as the most important city on the border, Beiyan City, was standing, they would not be able to lead the way to invade the Central Plains.
"These damn wolf soldiers!" Lu Yang heard what the five people said, he was really angry, he couldn't hold back, waved the bronze ancient sword in his hand and slashed at the rock on the side, in the stunned eyes of the five people, the sword was like cutting into tofu, splitting the huge rock in two, shattering into cracked rocks all over the ground.
However, the power of this sword made the two ice wolves hidden behind the boulder and secretly watching appeared, and everyone was shocked and stood up, but they did not expect these two ice wolves to be so cunning, following the traces left by the horse's hooves in the heavy snow, they could actually trace them and lurk here waiting for the opportunity to move. At this time, Lu Yang unintentionally cut open the rock and discovered their existence.
When Lu Yang heard about the tragedy in Stardew City, he was furious and furious. His eyes were full of bloodshots, and he unintentionally thought that this ice wolf was domesticated and ridden by those cruel soldiers of the Heavenly Wolf Country, so he could no longer control the killing intent surging in his chest. Leaving alone, the ancient sword crossed his chest, suddenly grabbed it, shouted, and a sword full of anger directly split a giant wolf into two sections, the blade was everywhere, blood splashed, and the ice wolf turned into the soul of the bronze ancient sword devouring the life method in an instant. All his strength was drained, and he was left in place, unable to move again.
Seeing that the momentum was not good, the other ice wolf roared loudly and shrunk its claws and flew back, but Lu Yang chased after him, and a strange force was born in the sea of qi, and he actually grabbed the wolf tail with the giant wolf's mane erected like a knife with one hand, and dragged it back with all his might, and stabbed with the sword with the other hand, the giant wolf howled miserably, and was pierced into the body by Lu Yang's bronze ancient sword from behind the body, and stabbed six or seven swords in a row, and the giant wolf stopped struggling, and under the severe pain, he whimpered for his life.
Seeing Lu Yang's strength alone, everyone cut off the two ice wolves in an instant, and they were all a little frightened, seeing that his eyebrows and eyes were full of murderous energy, and the wolf blood on his body added a bit of hideousness. A chill rose in my heart. Although this young man's cultivation is still only in the Qi Refining Realm, the long sword in his hand that is full of rust and glowing with copper green is terrifying everywhere, Fu Chunlei is brave and ruthless by nature, but when he faced Lu Yang, he had a sense of fear for no reason.
Lu Yang gasped heavily, his sword on the ground, forcibly suppressing the killing intent in his heart. Fortunately, in his sea of qi, there was the origin power brought to him by the Moon Pan Jade Immortal Zhi, which was inherited from the essence of the moonlight, but it was just enough to suppress his chaotic thoughts to a certain extent. The gentle moonlight, like a mother's hand, caressed the scars on his heart and brought him back to the world of tranquility.
"Am I unable to control myself again? I'm so afraid, why did I become like this?" Lu Yang muttered in a low voice, the bloodshot that was about to burst out in his eyes gradually subsided, devouring life, it could indeed bring him great strength, but it also made his heart full of tyranny and hatred, every time he killed, he would sink into it and couldn't help himself. In Lu Yang's heart, he didn't know when, but he was more and more afraid of this bronze ancient sword. He used the power of the ancient sword to avenge Su Xiaolian in the world of the wrath of the five wills, at that time, he killed many people, and in his madness, he scattered those people's corpses all over the ground. It was also the first time he had killed someone.
However, the more he thought about it, the more frightened Lu Yang became. Under his strong appearance, there is still a vague shadow of the cowardly scholar when he was young, once, he was so eager to have power, but when he gained strength, he was afraid of this power, one day, it would take him into the blood-stained Shura field, just a little thought, it made Lu Yang's soul tremble, he was afraid that he would eventually fall into a state of no return.
"What should I do now?" Lu Yang's body trembled unconsciously and trembled. The bronze ancient sword fell silently in the snow, and in the corner of his eyes, two lines of turbid tears flowed without arguing.
Mu Hantian came to his side at some point, bent down to pick up the bronze ancient sword, and put it back in Lu Yang's hand, he gently patted Lu Yang's shoulder, and said seriously: "When a person has great strength, it also means that responsibility and burden will be put on his shoulders. If you are really afraid of the killing intent in your heart, then it is better to calm down and think, why do you pick up this sword that carries life and choose such a path?"
