Chapter 6: Zen on the Side of the Pond (I)

There was an ambush in front and a chasing army, and the soldiers who were still following Luo Tianchu were less than a thousand, and now they had to rush through the sticky defense line and return to the 'pincer gap', there were still a thousand archers on the mountain range, and the terrain with the 'pincer gap' was enough to retreat the enemy. The road ahead has been blocked by large trees, and there is only one way to go. Luo Tianchu let out a loud shout and rushed up the hill where Sticky Han was. Sticky Han waved his hand and said, "Release the arrow." "Arrows rained down on the hills, and Luo Tianchu danced his spear, picking left and right, and all of them fell. Mu Han raised his big knife and said, "Follow the old man to go down and destroy the thieves!" Qi Bing rushed down with a shout. Luo Tian knew that he couldn't fight for a long time, and if he waited for the Qi soldiers behind him to surround him, the whole army would be annihilated, but the enemy army was condescending, and it was not easy to break through.

Luo Tianchu had no choice but to rush into the enemy formation, dancing wildly with spears, fighting in all directions. The spur stabbed obliquely, the counter-killing swept away, the shadow of the gun was all over the sky, there was no live mouth within two zhang, the gun was deadly, and there were dozens of corpses in a moment. Sticky Han rushed over on his horse, raised his knife and slashed with the momentum of the downward rush, shouting: "Look at this knife, Xiao'er." Luo Tianchu hurriedly raised his gun to hold the hilt of the knife, only to feel that his arms were sore, and his shoulders were painful, if it weren't for the black lightning of the mount, this blow alone could make the mount kneel down on all four hooves.

Sticky Han continued to exert force on the knife, pressing Luo Tianchu and unable to make a move. Luo Tianchu gritted his teeth and said to the soldiers behind him: "You break through on your own, leave me alone." The soldiers all said, "We swear to advance and retreat with the lord of the fort, and never go first." Luo Tianchu said: "I have my own way to get out, you quickly retreat, this is an order." The soldiers had no choice but to take the order and scattered to break through, and Luo Tianchu broke off alone.

Qi Bing was about to chase after him, but Mu Han shouted: "If hundreds of thieves don't chase after them, they must not let Luo Tianchu go." The Qi soldiers responded in unison, and rushed up to attack Luo Tianchu, Luo Tianchu sneered: "It's too early to catch me!" As he spoke, he shook off the long knife of the sticky Han and stabbed all the Qi soldiers who pounced on him to death. Sticky Han slashed again, Luo Tianchu didn't dare to fight, and when he saw the left side of the empty block and left, Sticky Han said: "Where to run!" Qi soldiers poured up layer by layer, and Luo Tianchu could not be surrounded by the conflict between left and right. Sticky Han's big knife was tiger and tiger behind him, like a shadow, Luo Tianchu dodged and moved on the horse, narrowly dodging. Although the black lightning is a good horse, but it can't be used in the dense forest, a soldier's spear is stabbing the horse's buttocks, the black lightning is in pain, raising his hind hooves and kicking the soldier's face, immediately unrecognizable, cheekbones are damaged. Black lightning is worthy of being the treasure horse of the war horse, and he is not alarmed after being injured, and still obeys the instructions of his master. Luo Tianchu urged the horse to forcibly kill the mound, and saw that there was a large thorny jungle in front of him, and he couldn't pass through on horseback, so he attached to the black lightning and said: "Horse, Ma'er, I have to leave you, they won't hurt you, I promise to bring you back." ”

Black Lightning seemed to understand, and raised his head and hissed. Luo Tianchu turned around and threw the spear, and the mighty strength penetrated the two Qi soldiers, nailing the corpse to the tree, he drew the Lone Ming Sword, and flew down the black lightning to drill into the dense forest.

Another group of Qi soldiers surrounded him, Luo Tianchu's sword level was much more skillful, and as soon as he landed, he displayed the seventh layer of the "Demon Suppression Sword Codex", the sword qi swept, the Qi soldiers and the surrounding trees were torn apart, blood splashed like rain, and Luo Tianchu's body was also covered with enemy blood. Sticky Han rode into the jungle, slashed the thorns with his sword, and slashed at Luo Tianchu from behind. Luo Tianchu lowered his head and flashed, turning around and shooting out seven sword qi. The forest was crowded and it was difficult to resist the horses, and Sticky Han's mount was hit by the sword qi and died with a scream. Sticky Han cursed, picked up his knife and continued to chase. Luo Tianchu turned around and fled, killing more than a dozen people along the way, and using light skills to break out of the encirclement. Qi Bing couldn't catch up with him, but he was left behind in less than a moment, and only Mu Han and Han Chang were still in hot pursuit. Luo Tianchu looked back at the two of them, thinking that if you can't beat you, don't try to catch up with me. Sticky Han's skill may be half a step higher than Luo Tianchu's, but the light skill is not very clever, he has given up after chasing for a while, knowing that it is useless to chase again, the forest is wide and dense, and it is not his own territory, if he gets lost, it will be troublesome, so he will go back with Han Chang.

Luo Tian saw that they were no longer chasing, so he slowed down his pace in the forest to find a way, who knew that he couldn't find the way after walking for an hour, and wanted to see the sun to identify the direction, but the forest was full of thousand-year-old trees, covering the sky and the sun, and it was difficult to see the sky at all, so he found that he had lost his way. I don't know what the situation of the withdrawn soldiers and the archers of the 'pincer' gap, Lu Tang Master and Xue'er are definitely worried when they see that they don't return, if they bring their troops to find them again and fall for Sticky Han's tricks, it will be even more heavy losses, and the commander of the first army is trapped in this damn forest, and they feel bad luck when they think about it.

Annoyed but there is no way, the light in the forest is fading, I feel thirsty and hungry, then I remember that I haven't eaten for a day, a mouthful of blood, my throat is dry and itchy and uncomfortable, and I feel like I want to vomit. He continued to walk for an hour and still couldn't distinguish things, and when he was cursing secretly, he suddenly heard the sound of "booming" water in front of him, and he was overjoyed, and hurriedly pushed aside the bushes and ran towards the sound of water. The voice seemed to be close and far away, and he had not yet walked two miles. The sound of falling water was like thunder, and it could be concluded that it was a large waterfall.

Turning a row of big trees, passing through a long grass, the eyes suddenly opened up, and a hundred-zhang waterfall flew down from the mountain beam, like a silver chain hanging in the sky, and the white cloth fluttered. The splash of water is like pear blossoms flying snow, the ice stars are all over the sky, there is the momentum of ten thousand horses galloping, and the rumbling is magnificent. After the water flows down, it gathers into a large pool, which is crystal clear, and the aquatic plants and moss at the bottom of the water can be clearly seen. Luo Tianchu was overjoyed, took off his armor and jumped into the pool, drank water and swam, so happy that he left his worries behind for a while.

He floated on his back on the water, looking at the long white clouds in the sky, his mood had never been so relaxed, thinking that Xiao Zhu longed for this carefree feeling the most. Thinking of He Yuelian's death again, my heart became heavy again, Xiao Zhu was really pitiful, and finally formed a hundred years of good union with his younger brothers and sisters who had admired him for many years, and he was separated by yin and yang in only one year. Xiao Zhu is a man of temperament, I just hope he won't do stupid things. Now the Qi soldiers of Sticky Han do not know the movement, and the army of the pincer gap does not know whether they are dead or alive.

He was about to swim back to shore when his eyes swept to see a man sitting cross-legged on a rock seven feet high from the waterfall. He was taken aback, and when he looked closely, he saw the powerful current of water crashing against the man, but he didn't realize it, as if it was one with the rock on which he was sitting. Luo Tianchu silently put on his armor, holding the Lone Ming Sword in his hand and slowly approached to watch. The stone wall on the inside of the waterfall is covered with moss, and it is as smooth as ice washed by the flowing water, I really don't know how the man went up, can he jump to a place seven zhang high? Luo Tianchu didn't believe it, even if Ling Junlai was alive, he couldn't jump seven zhang high.

The man **** was on the upper body, skinny, like an old man. The waterfall fell on his head, and he couldn't see his face, but he could see that he had no hair and was bald. Could it be that he is an old monk? Luo Tianchu noticed that a gray cloth monk's robe was neatly stacked on the rock beside him. What is this old monk doing in the deep mountains and old forests without enjoying his good fortune? Judging by his martial arts, he should not be weak in martial arts, and he should be a master of Buddhism and a high level of cultivation.

No matter where he is a monk, since he sees it, he is fateful, and he always has to say hello before leaving. Who knew that he hadn't spoken yet, but the old monk spoke first: "The merit of this pool of water is not small. His voice was kind and full of kindness. Although the sound is not loud, the rushing waterfall cannot be concealed at all. He was originally integrated with the surrounding scenery, but immediately after opening his mouth, he broke away from the scenery and became a "human" again. Luo Tianchu also sensed his 'appearance'. In my heart, I thought that this old monk had just entered the profound realm of "selflessness and selflessness", and this cultivation alone was far beyond his reach. He has always been respectful to the seniors who have cultivated to a high level, and bowed down and said: "The younger generations don't know that the master is practicing here, and they are bothered by mistake, but they don't know what the master means. ”

The old monk got up and stood on the rock, he was short in stature, as thin as dry wood, as if he could be blown away in a minute, but standing between the rushing waterfalls, he was as steady as a rock, and he was not moved at all. He clasped his hands together, proclaimed the Buddha's name, and with a slight step under his feet, he gently floated down from the Qizhang dangerous rock. I didn't see his legs straining but he swept across the air, and a feather fell in front of Luo Tianchu, his legs were not bent, as if he had been standing for a long time.

The old monk was too old to tell his age, his face was wrinkled and as deep as a knife, the skin on his neck was loose and sagging, the skin on his body was like a layer of dry bark, he was wearing wet monk's pants with five or six patches that were difficult to distinguish his true color, and his feet were wearing rattan straw sandals. The eyebrows were faint, the eyes were narrowed into a line, chaotic and godless, but they revealed an incomparable sense of intimacy, looking at Luo Tianchu and nodding slightly. (To be continued.) )
