Chapter Seventy-Four: Snake Mountain
"Let's go!" Wei Wuxian didn't say much, his two swords flew one after another, and he made a passage on the city wall to cover the withdrawal of the Great Xia soldiers above from the city.
Xie Sanyi and the others saw that they could withdraw, and they also exerted their strength, and for a while, the northern barbarians in the city wailed continuously, and they fell down like stubble like cutting leeks.
Wei Wuxian and all the Great Xia soldiers on the city evacuated, and said to the seventh son of the Qingyang Sect: "Let's go!"
Luo Kun and Bai Zizi went down the fastest, followed by Gu He and Xie Sanyi, and Ma Laosan, Wu Qi and Huang Chong last.
Seeing that everyone had evacuated, Wei Wuxian made a move with both hands, and the two sword weapons returned to his hands, and his body spread, jumping down from the gate in the accumulation of countless arrows.
Those swarming Northern Barbarians followed and caught up, and some also jumped down from above, landing on the wood poured with black oil, and most of them went down from both sides to pursue, and Guancheng completely fell into the hands of the Northern Barbarians.
Wei Wuxian's body was so fast, a few leaps to the camp, the retreating Daxia soldiers under the leadership of Ding Guohui went in the direction of Hulukou, except for Xie Sanyi's seven people, there were only fifteen people left in the camp, led by Shen Teng, all of whom were Wei Wuxian's subordinates.
Wei Wuxian said: "Senior Brother Xie, go into the mountains and take them towards Daegu County, now I'm afraid there is no time to retreat back to Lingzhou City from Binyang Town!"
Xie Sanyi nodded and said to the rest: "Let's go!"
Shen Teng looked at Wei Wuxian, and Wei Wuxuan said loudly: "Obey the military order!"
"Yes!"
Shen Teng finally took Ji Yun and the others to give Wei Wuxian a standard military salute, and then followed Xie Sanyi towards the mountain.
In the end, only a few people remained in the camp.
Ma Laosan said: "Wei Hua, can you do it?"
Huang Chong said: "Brother Wei, I'll stay and help you!"
Wu Qi glanced at the more than 100 Northern barbarian soldiers chasing after him and said, "Don't be reckless, although we are not as fierce as you are now, there is no problem in sharing some pressure on the side." β
Wei Wuxian smiled and said, "Don't worry, you guys go quickly, I'm faster than you, if you stay, it will be troublesome." β
"Cheβ’β’β’I actually dislike us!"
Although Ma Laosan said this, he knew in his heart that the difference in strength between the three of them and Wei Wuxian was a bit far now, and he didn't ink at the moment, so he grabbed the blood and grabbed the hot blood and wanted to speak, Huang Chong and Wu Qi, who were about to speak, quickly walked in the direction where Xie Sanyi and his party left.
Wei Wuxian watched them leave, turned to face the steady stream of Northern Barbarian soldiers from the Jade Bottle Pass, sneered and took out all three sword weapons, and said in his mouth: "Go!"
Two of the flying swords flashed in an instant, and two blue rays of light shot out like lightning towards the narrow paths on both sides.
When the Hu soldiers stacked the wood, they left a narrow road on each side that could only walk side by side, and the northern barbarians could only move slowly from both sides, at most two people at a time.
Wei Wuxian guarded the flying sword of the imperial envoy in the middle of the pile of wood, which was equivalent to a husband and a man.
Where could the Northern Barbarians on both sides block Wei Wuxian's flying sword, they were killed and fell to the ground one after another, and the people behind jumped on the wood, trying to pass through the middle.
Wei Wuxian chuckled lightly and offered the last remaining flying sword.
The passage between the camp and the Jade Bottle Pass is only more than 20 zhang wide, Wei Wuxian's imperial envoy three flying swords are enough to hold the passage mouth, and the wood is stacked messily, the northern barbarians on it are difficult to walk, and they are even more unable to resist the changeable, fast and sharp flying swords, and the passage mouth fell for a time I don't know how many northern barbarian soldiers.
Wei Wuxian was flying his sword while wantonly ingesting the scimitars scattered on the ground, these weapons made of fine iron contained a small amount of sharp gold qi, and the content of each scimitar was negligible, but it was better than a large amount.
After a while, there were more and more Northern Barbarian soldiers coming down from the Jade Bottle Pass, and they began to carry the wood and stones piled up at the city gate, and the Northern Barbarian soldiers on this side of the camp also learned to be obedient, and retreated to thirty zhang away to shoot arrows at Wei Wuxian, and the dense rain of arrows almost covered the void in front of him.
Wei Wuxian sensed that the time was almost up, and withdrew the three flying swords in front of him to block the arrows that were being shot, and at the same time ran the [Fire Spirit Technique], his right hand condensed a thumb-sized fire projectile, and gently flicked it towards the wood piled up on the opposite side.
Under the attention of all the Northern Barbarians, the thumb-sized fire bomb fell on the dead wood, and then something terrifying happened to them, and in an instant, the small fireball burst open, and the golden-white flames covered a width of more than thirty zhang, and the more than ten Northern Barbarian soldiers who were close were burned into soot in the blink of an eye.
The Northern Barbarians holding bows and arrows in the back immediately shouted and turned around and fled in the direction of Guancheng, but the wooden pile was messy, and hundreds of people were huddled together and couldn't walk at all, and they were shrouded in the fire that spread from behind, but the fire that spread over was not the golden white before, but orange-red, black smoke billowed out, and the terrible screams made Xie Sanyi and the others who entered the mountain forest palpitate for a while.
Because of the effect of black oil, the flames spread quickly, and the raging fire made the Northern Barbarian soldiers who were carrying wood and stone at the gate of the city scatter in fright, and the fire dragon of more than 200 zhang long blocked a large number of Northern Barbarian cavalry outside the Yumen Pass.
Wei Wuxian turned his head and took one last look at the direction of the Jade Bottle Pass and the camp where he had been staying for several months, and his figure stretched out and walked in the direction where Xie Sanyi had left.
In this battle, he continuously made many flying swords, and used the [Fire Spirit Technique] to stimulate the fire of the true yuan, and the consumption of the yuan power in the body was huge, so it was not suitable to stay outside for a long time, and he must find a safe place to recover his vitality as soon as possible.
At this time, the sky was dark, and the mountains and forests were even darker, there were many beasts and poisonous insects in the forest, Wei Wuxian didn't dare to be careless, and expanded his divine sense to explore the way, at first he could still see the footprints of Xie Sanyi and others, but when he passed a stream, the footprints of Xie Sanyi and others were messy, and then disappeared, and he searched up and down left and right for a long time without finding new traces.
This mountain range starts from Xiaoqingshan and connects to the Western Regions, and is a natural barrier between Great Xia and the Northern Barbarians, known as Yunling.
Yunling is composed of small mountain ranges again, between the Yubei Pass and the Youyun Pass in front of Yanzhou City, this section is called the Snake Pan Mountain Range, the shape is like a coiled big snake, the primeval forest area in the middle is more than 600 miles long, the width is also more than 400 miles, and it is usually inaccessible.
Daegu County is located on the edge of the Shepan Mountain Range, and from Daegu County to Chayu County of Yanju, both counties are large counties with few people and wide land.
Wei Wuxian judged that Binyang Town was now afraid that it had fallen into the hands of the Northern Barbarians, and it was too risky to return to Lingzhou City from Binyang County, so he decided to let Xie Sanyi take Shen Tao and the others over Shepan Mountain to Daegu County.
What surprised him was that he lost the whereabouts of Xie Sanyi and his party, what happened here in the creek, why did they suddenly disappear without a trace?
Wei Wuxian returned to the stream again, he first took a Yuan Qi Pill, and then chose a rock to sit on it cross-legged and run the exercises to dispense the medicinal power.
After about a quarter of an hour, suddenly he heard a creeping sound in the grass, as if there were many things sneaking inside.
Wei Wuxian hurriedly unfolded his divine sense, and the next moment his face became ugly, he finally knew why Xie Sanyi and the others suddenly disappeared here!
