Chapter 2: The Bloody War (Chapter 1 and 2)
"Obviously, there will be a big battle here tonight! It's really unfortunate that I just came to encounter such a thing!" Chen Yuxiang clenched his iron hammer and thought with annoyance.
If he was still the strength of the Mahayana period, he naturally didn't need to be afraid of such level battles. But now that he's just a mortal, a few sailors can hurt him.
And he teleported here, consumed a lot of resources of the division, and shouldered the heavy responsibility of opening up branches for the division, so naturally he couldn't die in such a small war.
I don't know where the city lord of Ningbo City offended and caused today's catastrophe, of course, Chen Yuxiang doesn't care about this.
Although it is also called Ningbo, it is not a Chinese country on the earth, but a strange world.
It wasn't that Chen Yuxiang was cold-blooded and ruthless, in his opinion, it was just an ordinary battle between the local nobles.
He already knew that the country he was in now was called Great Xia, and it was a country that adopted a feudal system, and each city had its own lord.
Generally speaking, battles between lords like this are fought against the private soldiers of both sides, and no matter who wins or loses, it will not have much impact on the civilians in the city. After all, whoever occupies the city has to rely on these civilians to feed themselves.
But even then, civilian casualties in the fighting are inevitable. As a master of the Mahayana period who had lost his mana, Chen Yuxiang naturally refused to put himself in danger.
The most important thing now is to sneak out of the city before these invaders besiege it. Otherwise, once the two sides fight, there will be no eyes for knives and guns, and it will be embarrassing to accidentally hang here.
Thinking of this, Chen Yuxiang endured the emptiness of lack of mental power, cautiously released a trace of divine sense, and slowly swept towards the direction of the city wall.
The powerful divine consciousness of the Mahayana period passed through the houses, crossed the streets to the city wall, and extended along the city wall to the city gate, Chen Yuxiang slowly withdrew his divine consciousness. The face has become extremely ugly!
Four doors are closed!
Slipping out through the gates doesn't seem to work, and jumping over walls is obviously not a good idea.
Ningbo City is high and deep, the city wall is more than ten zhang high, all made of huge bluestone, covered with a few feet thick Sanhe soil, the whole wall is treated smooth and abnormal, there is no place to borrow.
And the moat below is covered with sharp wooden stakes and bamboo sticks. And if you don't use your strength to jump like this, although your current body is still quite strong, I am afraid that you will inevitably have the fate of being crushed.
"It seems that it is impossible to open the way before the siege, only when the invaders enter the city and the two sides are sneaking out while the city is fighting. With his powerful divine sense in the Mahayana period, it should be no problem to avoid those low-level monks. ”
"If it really doesn't work, then find a corner and draw a circle to trap civilians. ”
......
Chen Yuxiang held the iron drill and walked towards the east gate of Ningbo City very quickly.
About 200 meters away from the city gate, Chen Yuxiang sat down in the shadow of a big tree, closed his eyes and prepared to start practicing the Crystal Palace's ultimate technique, "Spring Breeze Decision". Although the time is of little use, and there is no Qing'er to cultivate together, it is better than nothing. If you can accumulate a little mana, you will be more sure of saving your life later.
Although he knew that this body that had been snatched up also had spiritual roots, Chen Yuxiang was not sure what the specific qualifications were. Chen Yuxiang slowly played a few tricks, trying to sense the spiritual power of heaven and earth here.
"Boom!"
Chen Yuxiang only felt a tremor in his soul, as if he had entered an extremely mysterious realm. Although he didn't open his eyes, he clearly felt the flow of heaven and earth aura.
Within his sea of knowledge, a strange picture appeared.
The aura of cyan wood, the aura of fire in red, the aura of earth in yellow, the aura of water in blue, and the aura of bright yellow gold float in the air like wisps of thin threads, tangled into colorful clusters of light.
Rao is Chen Yuxiang has been cultivating for thousands of years, and he can't help but feel excited when he sees this scene. There are already five kinds of heaven and earth aura: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and you can feel several kinds of heaven and earth aura, which determines the speed of cultivation and the height that can be reached in the future.
Chen Yuxiang's original body could feel the aura of heaven and earth with the three attributes of wood, fire, and gold, and he had already been cultivated as a cultivation genius in the master's sect. And the fact that we were able to successfully reach the Mahayana period in the end is also proof of this.
And now this body can actually feel all five kinds of heaven and earth aura!
"This, could it be the legendary Five Elements Spirit Root?!" The corners of Chen Yuxiang's mouth were slightly upturned, and an excited look appeared on his face.
"No, although the Five Elements Spirit Root is rare, there are a few in the history of the sect. According to the descriptions of those predecessors, the owners of the Five Elements Spiritual Root can feel the five kinds of heaven and earth aura, and when they cultivate, they can even absorb the five kinds of heaven and earth aura at the same time, so the cultivation speed is ridiculously fast. However, I only feel the richness of the aura of heaven and earth, and I have never heard of being able to clearly see every wisp of heaven and earth aura. ”
"And my body, I can not only see and 'see' every wisp of heaven and earth aura, but also feel their emotions!"
"It turns out that the aura of heaven and earth has emotions!"
"It's just, what kind of body am I, and it's too exaggerated to have such a perfect spiritual root than the Five Elements Spiritual Root, right?"
Chen Yuxiang's mind moved, and he gently summoned the surrounding five elements aura, feeling Chen Yuxiang's call, wisps of heaven and earth aura entangled and excitedly surged over, rushing into the meridians through the pores, and wandering happily in the meridians.
Feeling the mana rapidly accumulating in his body, Chen Yuxiang's face showed a look of intoxication, and at this time, he was so excited that he completely entered a state of selflessness, his hunger naturally disappeared, and even the imminent danger was forgotten by him......
......
Half an hour later.
"Whew!"
A cloud-piercing arrow roared into the air, followed by a thunderous sound from the earth, and many sailors raised torches and shouted towards the four gates. Dozens of monks among the sailors also flew into the air with their foot on the magic weapon, and they crossed the city head violently and rushed straight towards the city lord's mansion.
"Enemy attack!"
The sleepy guards on the city wall were awakened, relying on the location to fight back desperately, sharp arrows poured down the city densely, and all kinds of defending weapons fired desperately, harvesting human lives one by one. And in the City Lord's Mansion, more than a dozen figures flew into the air and caught the monks among the attackers.
There were at least more than 5,000 sailors outside, and there were no more than a thousand guards on the city walls, so there was no suspense in this war at all, and it was only a matter of time before the city gates were breached.
Of course, the most crucial battle was still in the air, and the number and quality of the monks among the invaders were enough to overwhelm the monks of the City Lord's Mansion. In battles involving monks, the monks are the key to victory.
Suddenly, dozens of black-clothed people mysteriously came out of the houses near the east gate, and quietly rushed into the city gate cave like ghosts, and more than a dozen guards in front of the city gate were caught off guard, and they were all cut down in less than a breath. Then the huge gate opened, and the drawbridge fell heavily!
The sailors roared and rushed into the city, quickly dismantling the guards on the walls. Then he laughed and rushed into the streets, throwing torches at the houses. The wooden houses burst into flames in an instant, spreading along the streets towards the center of the city.
Contrary to Chen Yuxiang's assumption, these invaders did not go straight to the city lord's mansion after breaking the city, but burned them everywhere. Many civilians screamed and fled from the fire, and were cut into several pieces by the sailors' long knives!
This is obviously not a battle between nobles to seize the city, but a war between different races! These sailors are all pirates from the Lelang Sea! And looking at this, these invaders actually want to slaughter the city!
......
Chen Yuxiang didn't know all this, he had already entered the realm of forgetting things and me, still closing his eyes, absorbing the rich spiritual power of heaven and earth around him.
The pirates quickly rushed to Chen Yuxiang, and under the light of the surrounding houses, the shadow of the big tree had long since disappeared, and the big tree itself was burning like a huge torch.
Most of the pirates had already rushed into the center of the city, and a charging pirate saw Chen Yuxiang sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, and seemed to think that this guy was a little strange, but this feeling did not prevent him from slashing at Chen Yuxiang with a knife in both hands!
"Huh?"
"Die!"
When the knife was still 0.01 centimeters away from his forehead, a sense of danger from instinct woke Chen Yuxiang up. The iron hammer in his hand was sent out without thinking, and stabbed straight into Haikou's throat.
Flying up with a kick and kicking the Haikou upside down and flying out, Chen Yuxiang was also scared into a cold sweat. If you had been a little slower to wake up just now, you would have fallen into the hands of such an ordinary pirate!
"Ah~~~~~~h
The pirate let out a terrible scream, then plopped and fell to the ground with a heavy thud. Chen Yuxiang took back the iron drill and smiled helplessly, this body is still not familiar enough, the strength is not grasped well, and it actually made this guy scream!
"What's going on?"
Chen Yuxiang looked around and realized that the war had already started. And when he saw the burning houses around him, his eyes were also full of anger.
Hurting civilians, this is completely out of line with the rules of a city capture war!
Chen Yuxiang still didn't know that this was not a battle to capture the city, but a war between different races. And those invaders are not another lord's private soldiers, but the Japanese from the Lelang Sea!
Most of the pirates have already rushed into the inner city, but there are still a lot of scattered pirates, and the screams of the tragically dead pirates have not fallen, only the sound of dense footsteps can be heard around, and more than a dozen pirates rush over.
When the pirates saw their companions who had fallen to the ground and could no longer die, they couldn't help but shout violently, and more than a dozen knives slashed at the same time!
"Bang!"
Chen Yuxiang kicked the floor hard, flew out upside down like a sharp arrow, and slammed his back into the wall of the house behind him, knocking the wall into a human-shaped hole, and the remaining strength was not weakened, and he crashed through the opposite wall at the same time!
Back on the street, Chen Yuxiang secretly praised that the body was strong now, and rushed desperately in the direction of the city gate.
Although angry, he didn't want to fight for the city. Now he is completely confused about the situation, and he has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he has absolutely no thoughts of co-living or dying with this city.
The pirates chased around the wooden house, shouting as they chased him, "Catch him!"
"Don't let him run!"
Hearing the shouts of his companions, more and more Haikou gathered over, and desperately besieged Chen Yuxiang. Although Chen Yuxiang's mana has only recovered a little, his divine sense is still there, and the movements of these ordinary sea robbers are like slow motion in his eyes, plus the current body is quite strong, rushing all the way to kill, there is no enemy in his hands!
"Poof!", "Poof!", "Poof!", ......
The iron drill kept swinging out at will, and each time it accurately smashed Haikou's throat, and Chen Yuxiang's movements became more and more proficient. In a short time, more than a dozen pirates were hung up.
These pirates are also ruthless, and the successive tragic deaths of their companions have made them red-eyed one by one. The besieging pirates would rather die than retreat, and with the shouts of these pirates, more and more pirates gathered over, and soon there were more than 100 people!
Dozens of pirates were desperately pestering Chen Yuxiang behind him, while dozens of other pirates saw Chen Yuxiang's intentions and had already gathered at the city gate and lined up into a thick human wall. A series of cold and bloodthirsty eyes fell on Chen Yuxiang's body.
Chen Yuxiang's heart became extremely anxious, there were too many pirates blocking in front of him, if he continued like this, even if he could break out of the encirclement, but if he waited until those pirate monks freed their hands, he would not be able to get out.
"Let's go back to the city! Get rid of these guys, and then find a chance to get out of the city!"
Thinking of this, Chen Yuxiang's iron drill poked out twice in a row like lightning, knocking down the two pirates on the left, and then rushed out of the crowd along the gap and rushed towards the city.
Dozens of pirates scolded and chased after them desperately. Unfortunately, Chen Yuxiang's speed was too fast, and there were only a dozen pirates who could keep up with him.
The city had turned into a sea of fire at this time, and Chen Yuxiang released his divine sense, carefully avoiding the monks in the sea bandit, and at the same time desperately fighting with the help of the terrain.
At the beginning, with a little mana in his body, Chen Yuxiang successfully got rid of most of the pursuers, and sent those pirates who dared to stop in front of him back to their hometowns, killing them very highly.
Helplessly, the number of pirates is too many, and they can echo each other, Chen Yuxiang tried his best, although there are more and more pirates who hang up, but there are always more than a dozen pirates behind him, and there are constantly pirates joining in the middle, and although the mana in his body has been saved as much as possible, it is still helpless to use less and less......
......
Ningbo City, dawn the next day.
The fire was half the sky, and as far as the eye could see, there were ruins everywhere, the air seemed to have turned pink, and the heavy smell of blood filled the air, and the smell was disgusting.
Chen Yuxiang held the iron drill in his hand, and while running forward desperately, he opened his mouth wide, desperately pouring hot air into his lungs, and not far behind him, he followed closely a dozen Haikou with swords and long swords.
Chen Yuxiang only felt a hot pain in his lungs, and his legs became heavier and heavier. The dozen or so pirates behind him were already sweating profusely, still chasing after them.
Chen Yuxiang has almost reached the limit, but he is barely supported by a little obsession in his heart.
"I can't die here! I can't die here!"
"I still have to figure out where Qing'er went, I still have to start a sect in this world! I definitely can't die here!"
After a night of fighting, although hundreds of Haikou were hung up, the little mana introduced into the body had already been exhausted. In the past two hours, he has been gritting his teeth and struggling with worldly martial arts.
"Boom!"
Chen Yuxiang had just run past a street corner, and a tall sea coward hidden behind the broken wall shouted, holding a knife in both hands, and slashed down at him!
The bitter wind of the knife made his face ache, and Chen Yuxiang used his last strength to leap forward and circle behind a collapsed wooden pillar.
The high sea slashed into the air with a knife, only to hear a pop, and the knife slashed heavily on the wooden pillar, and it was enough to enter the wood!
Gao Dahaikou was just about to draw the knife, but suddenly felt a cold throat, Chen Yuxiang's iron drill had accurately pierced his throat, shattering his throat bone!
Chen Yuxiang skillfully pulled out the iron drill, Gao Dahaikou let go of the knife, and fell on his back with an unwilling face, and a soybean-sized wound appeared in his throat, but there was no trace of blood flowing out!
Chen Yuxiang smiled with satisfaction, after a night of familiarization, his adaptation to this body has been basically completed.
However, after this delay, more than a dozen pirates behind had already surrounded him. Chen Yuxiang fought hard and circled around the inclined wooden pillar with more than a dozen Japanese robbers.
"Poof!", "Poof!", "Poof!", "......"
Every time the iron crackles into the flesh, it takes the life of a pirate.
Although Chen Yuxiang looked embarrassed at this time, and his steps were sometimes a little stumbling, he was always able to avoid the opponent's killing moves at the last moment. The iron drill in his hand occasionally counterattacked, and the moves seemed to be very clumsy, but every time he made a shot, it was as if those pirates themselves sent their throats to the iron drill.
However, within a few breaths, there were already three Haikou who were folded under the seemingly ordinary iron hammer, and among them, there was an authentic disciple of the Panasonic Sword Sect!
Chen Yuxiang's physical fitness is almost at the limit, and he is also annoyed to death.
With his incomparably powerful divine sense, in his own eyes, the movements of these pirates are obviously ridiculously slow and threatened, but the problem is that after losing all their mana, the movements that his body can make are not much faster than these pirates.
I didn't want to wade into this troubled water, who would have thought that at that dangerous moment, I would actually enter the realm of selflessness!
A low, crisp sound of "pop" was the sound of a throat shattering. Chen Yuxiang reluctantly withdrew the iron hammer in his hand, and lowered his head to dodge the two cold and shining knives.
There were fewer and fewer Haikou around him, and Chen Yuxiang's breathing became heavier.
Reluctantly pulling back the iron drill from a sea coward, Chen Yuxiang stumbled under his feet, and finally lost his strength and sat heavily on the ground. Two swords and a long sword slashed at the boy almost at the same time!
He wanted to block, but he didn't have any strength!
"Are you going to die?"
The cold knife wind made Chen Yuxiang's skin goosebumps, Chen Yuxiang sighed helplessly, and slowly closed his eyes.
In his heart, there are too many doubts and too many unwillingness.
More than a dozen Haikou looked at Chen Yuxiang with hideous faces, waiting for the moment when he was split into several pieces.
Swish!!!
Suddenly, a bright white light flashed, and in an instant, it circled around a dozen people. All the pirates felt a chill in their throats almost at the same time, and then fell into eternal darkness......
......
"Huh?"
The expected pain did not appear, and Chen Yuxiang tried his best to open his eyes. The corpses of the surrounding pirates fell to the ground, but what appeared in front of them was the pretty face of a young girl.
The girl was looking at herself with concern, and said crisply, "Hey, you don't matter, right?"
The endless fatigue made Chen Yuxiang's mind a little blurred, but the pretty face in front of him was so familiar. Thousands of years of getting along day and night are enough to make this memory unforgettable!
Chen Yuxiang smiled tiredly, his consciousness gradually blurred, and it was too late to think about how this figure could appear here, but he only knew that he had found his lover.
"Qing'er!"
Chen Yuxiang muttered, used his last strength to hold the girl's little hand, and finally couldn't support it anymore and fainted!
