Text Season 8: Danger _ "Phantom Spear (8)" Chapter 36: Seven Kills Break the Army Formation
Although Liu Shichen doesn't know martial arts, he knows Hong Shun's power, and when the "Demon Shadow Quick Knife" Zhanqun failed to assassinate in the last Beijing martial arts competition, he frankly said that Hong Shun has amazing endurance and profound martial arts, and he will not be much worse than Lu Jianfei. Liu Shichen saw that Zhao Pingyuan and Zhao Pingguang couldn't fight him, so he was anxious, and immediately gestured to Zhao Pingtong beside him with his eyes.
Zhao Pingtong was very clever, and immediately understood, and said: "Don't worry, Lord Prime Minister, it's not too late for my two brothers to test this person first." ”
"There are many dreams at night, not to mention that if the Imperial Forest Army hidden in the capital quickly returns to defense, it will be in trouble at that time. Although Liu Shichen had already arranged all the countermeasures, he had always been cautious and did not want any mistakes to occur.
"Since you've said so, I'll meet him later. Prime Minister, don't worry, as long as our three brothers go out together, no one has ever been able to defeat us, even if the Wan father and son from the Dead Earth Gate come. Zhao Pingtong patted his chest and said confidently.
Liu Shichen naturally believed in the strength of the three brothers, otherwise he would not have recruited them to be his personal guards. His eyes were already fixed on the imperial study, that position, which was about to become his own study, every time he thought of this, his heart was surging, after all, he had endured it for so many years, just for this moment to come.
Zhao Pingyuan and Zhao Pingguang attacked the left and right roads respectively, Hong Shun did not shrink his hands and feet at all, his moves opened and closed, and a tenacious ring knife cooperated with his footwork, which made the wind and water rise, and such a desperate attack shocked the two brothers. Hong Shun, for the safety of the emperor, has given up his life, even if he knows in his heart that the real emperor is not in the imperial study. The only thing he can do now is to delay time after Liu Shichen is sure to rebel, so that the Imperial Forest Army can protect the emperor from danger. Then, as long as Lu Jianfei and his troops come to the rescue, he can retake the imperial city and turn defeat into victory. After all, although the generals of the Quartet will bring troops to come, they will definitely not help each other, and wait for the situation in the world to stabilize, even if Liu Shichen has a military talisman in hand, they will have some concerns.
Zhao Pingtong drew his knife and slashed, Hong Shun felt a sharp knife aura coming from above his head, he kicked away the Gray Yin Pu Knife with his left foot, separated the Blue Yin Pu Knife with his right hand, and his body rotated sideways, instead of retreating, he rushed towards Zhao Pingtong. Zhao Pingtong didn't expect this deputy commander of the imperial guard to be so bold and careful. Rao is also experienced in a hundred battles, and he has a chill down his spine.
Hong Shun's ring knife was about to slash Zhao Pingtong, and the other party dodged with a fish leap, Hong Shun pretended to catch up, and immediately turned back after taking the first step, and actually pounced on Liu Shichen. This surprised everyone in the Zhao family, Hong Shun's trick of "capturing the thief and capturing the king first" is really powerful.
"Big brother!" Zhao Pingguang exclaimed.
"I know, get ready. Zhao Pingtong's words have been made very clear.
Zhao Pingtong carried the internal force to his feet, and tried his best to come to Liu Shichen's side, he gently pushed Liu Shichen away, his red-bladed Pu knife could not keep up, and he used his body to block Hong Shun's knife. Hong Shun was also shocked by his momentum of not being afraid of death, and his movements slowed down for a moment. Zhao Pingtong's chest was bleeding, but the movement never stopped, the red-bladed Pu Dao had arrived, and Hong Soon was forced to dodge sideways. originally wanted to sneak attack again, but Zhao Pingtong had already taken the lead in blocking Liu Shichen's body. Hong Shun snorted coldly, pretending to take a step forward, but in fact immediately turned the spearhead and slashed at Zhao Pingguang's right leg who was preparing. Zhao Pingguang was caught off guard, if he hadn't withdrawn quickly, his right leg would have been injured more than just skin.
Zhao Pingyuan roared, the blue seal pu knife came, Hong Shun turned over a carp, and the two knives were handed over, and countless sparks were sparked. Zhao Pingguang was about to adjust, Hong Shun put aside Zhao Pingyuan's attack again, and flew up, Zhao Pingguang waved his arms, and a fierce knife qi came out. It's so fast that the eye can't catch it. Hong Shun has been practicing martial arts for many years, even if his eyes can't keep up, how can the instinctive movements of his body stagnate? Only in the blink of an eye, Hong Shun had already avoided the sword qi, but instead made Zhao Pingyuan reluctantly take this move, and was shocked to take three steps back, his face was extremely ugly.
"Okay, you Hongshun, you have such skills, our three brothers underestimate you. Zhao Pingtong said angrily. Of course he was in a bad mood, the three brothers who were originally sure to win, but at this moment, he was taught a lesson one by one, how could he not be angry?
Hong Shun subconsciously glanced back at the imperial study, and after finding that no one else had sneak attacked, his heart was more stable. Tonight, he is nothing more than a "death", but if he can kill the traitor and contribute his own strength to the safety of the court, then don't say that he will die, even if he dies thousands of times. This loyalty can be seen by the sun and the moon.
"You three brothers, you must have more than that, if you only have this ability, then you will surely die under the sword of the Commander tonight. Hong Shun held the ring knife in his hand, and his eyes kept glancing.
"Seven killings, greedy wolves, and broken armies, have you ever heard of it?" asked Zhao Pingtong.
"Hmph, you want to say that you three brothers are, right?" Hong Shun asked rhetorically.
"Ziwei fights, kill the wolf pattern, the three of us brothers, this is the kind of fate. Therefore, we will experience ups and downs in this life, and we will be adrift all our lives, but we have the opportunity to become famous in one fell swoop. And this opportunity is tonight, and you are very lucky to be able to let the three of us use a combined formation that we have not used for many years - Seven Kills to Break the Army Formation. Zhao Pingtong said as he stepped forward.
Hong Shun looked at his steps, looking at Zhao Pingyuan and Zhao Pingguang with his spare eyes, and they were also quietly approaching. A cold killing intent that had never been felt before seemed to be slowly coming towards him. Hong Shun has experienced a hundred battles in his life, and there have not been a few times that can make him feel this kind of oppression.
"What 'Seven Kills to Break the Army Formation', what 'Kill the Wolf' life, they are all bluffing tricks, what real skills do you have, just use them. Hong Shun said this, but he was secretly wary in his heart.
"Kill the wolf's life, like to move but not to be quiet, easy to kill but not good to live. As the saying goes, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, Hong Shun, you still know very little. Liu Shichen said with a sneer.
Zhao Pingtong commanded loudly: "Brothers, take position, let him see our formation." ”
"Okay, big brother!" Zhao Pingyuan and Zhao Pingguang echoed in unison.
The whirring of the cold wind and the rustle of the snow broke some of the silence. On this night, killing the wolf is destined to set off a whirlwind that turns the world upside down. Zhao Pingtong, Zhao Pingyuan, and Zhao Pingguang, the three of them acted in unison, and they pounced on the hungry tiger and pounced directly on Hong Shun. Only between the lightning and flint, Hong Shun was left with three knife wounds on his body, and Hong Shun was caught off guard by the speed and coordination of his movements.
"Second brother, this time I finally avenged the three of us just now. Zhao Pingguang had already retreated to his original position and said with a sneer.
"Well, yes, although this guy is powerful, he is definitely not the opponent of our seven-kill army formation. What do you say, big brother? Zhao Pingyuan said faintly.
"That's natural, the head treats the three of us brothers well, and passes on such a good set of formations to us. The reconstruction of Kunmen and the glorious lintel are just around the corner. Zhao Pingtong said with relief.
The three of them had a conversation without taking Hong Shun in their eyes at all, and it was the first time in Hong Shun's life that he was underestimated like this. But this formation is extremely weird, I don't have time to react at all, and the sharp pain of a knife wound has already come from my body, if I experience it a few more times, I am afraid that I will already be in a different place. If you sacrifice like this, it is worthless.
Hong Shun was thinking about countermeasures while being wary of the movements of the three brothers.
"Lord Hong, if you know each other, it's still too late to turn back. Let's turn against the armor, the prime minister is eloquent and benevolent, which point is not stronger than the dog emperor inside. If you are willing to submit, our three brothers will not embarrass you, and everyone will be safe and prosperous, wouldn't it be beautiful?" Zhao Pingyuan tried to persuade Hong Shun to surrender.
"Bah, you Liu Shichen's eagle claws, don't say much. There are only severed heads in our court, and there is no one who bends the knee. Hong Shun's words are righteous and awe-inspiring.
"Well, there is no way. Zhao Pingyuan felt sorry for Hong Shun's attitude.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense with him, second brother, this person is obsessed, let's change the formation. After speaking, Zhao Pingguang and Zhao Pingyuan switched positions. At the same time, Zhao Pingtong killed from the front, Hong Shun leaned back and wanted to dodge, Zhao Pingguang's gray Yin Pu knife had already slashed at his feet, there was no other way to go, Hong Shun kicked the ground with his strength, who expected that Zhao Pingyuan's move above had already hit. The joint attack of the upper, middle and lower roads completely sealed Hong Shun's defense, which was just a change in the seven-kill army formation.
Fear arose spontaneously in Hong Shun's heart for the first time......
