Chapter 1: The Blood of Puyang
The sun is dusk and yellow, and the twilight is vast. The clouds are like flocculents, sweeping across the dim sky, drawing a bloody mouth in the sky, dyeing red and hanging the wings of the clouds, a lone goose with blood, hovering over the devastated earth, staring sadly and quietly at the Puyang Towers that are about to fall.
The famous city was killed, and the world was silent.
Under the gate of Puyang City, the crowd of people who fled in a hurry crowded each other, all with frightened looks and desperate silence, gathered like a gray ant array, flowing along the obscure twilight to the reckless wilderness. Even if he brought his family and dependents, took care of his children and dragged his daughter, his face showed endless grief and indignation, but no one dared to take a loud breath, as if he would attract the trampling and slaughter of hundreds of thousands of strong Qin iron horsemen.
The catastrophe is coming, and human life is like ants.
"Who said that the people in troubled times are the most miserable, they at least have a chance to escape, uh-huh, in my opinion, I really don't know how many miles stronger than us soldiers waiting to die!" A soldier who leaned his head against the corner of the wall, glancing at the crowd of refugees, mockingly snorted at his companion beside him.
Looking up from his tired face, the word "Puyang" is engraved impartially in the middle of the gate hole of the city tower, which is simple and full of vicissitudes.
Another soldier leaned over and leaned in and whispered, "I heard that the general sent by the Qin State this time is Meng Fu, who is known as a hundred victories in a hundred battles, and his methods are extremely cruel, and he has captured thirteen cities in Korea and twenty cities in Wei. If our Puyang falls into his hands, I'm afraid it will be more than lucky!"
The soldier from before sighed, "Hey, whoever comes from the Qin Kingdom will be enough for us! I heard that even the great king has fled to the wild king!"
The latter soldier exclaimed, "Is it true? Even the king has fled from Puyang, so why are we still staying here?"
"Of course you have to guard!" A man who looked like a commander suddenly flashed around, stared at the two soldiers with a frosty face, and said solemnly word by word, "Although the king is gone, we still have Mr. Gongsun back then!"
The "Mr. Gongsun" in his mouth was Gongsun Yu, the military commander of Puyang City back then. This person is a nobleman who defends the country, and is a disciple of Guiguzi, a famous master of the art of war, who is not only proficient in Tao strategy, but also very accomplished in swordsmanship, and is one of the famous swordsmen at that time. The Qin army attacked and defended, and he was one of the very few generals who decided to fight to the end, so before Wei Jun lived in the wild king, he had entrusted him with the heavy responsibility of guarding the capital. At this moment, he is the last hope of all the soldiers and people who are unwilling to submit to the strong Qin.
When the sergeants on the castle tower were silently confronting each other, a commotion faintly broke out by the pushing gate. A carriage rumbled and galloped from afar, crashing into the panicked crowd, and the coachman hurried like madness, and a whip fell on the neighing galloping horses, and the crowd retreated like a tide. Just as the carriage was about to rush through the narrow city gate, a child of three or four years old in the crowd, with fruit in his mouth, shook off his mother's shackles with one hand, and staggered towards the galloping carriage, as if to touch the flying horse's mane. The coachman could not see the young child, and the blindfolded galloping horse could not stop its footsteps, and when the raised hooves were about to fall on the child's immature body, everyone stopped and watched with bated breath at this miserable moment.
The child's mouth opened wide in horror in the shadow of the great horse's hooves, and the fruit rolled from its mouth to the ground. The screaming crowd fell silent in an instant, leaving only the screams of the child's mother piercing the sky. The blood-colored remnant sun also flickered away at this moment, and the earth fell into a haze.
Suddenly, a figure slid like lightning across the street, flicking the hooves of the horses that had swooped down with one hand, and picking up the frightened children with the other, and before the crowd had time to exclaim, it spun back to the corner. This man was a young man, and he stood proudly, as if he had never moved half a step, but there was an extra child in his arms. The galloping horse stumbled a few paces at the same moment, and finally dragged the cart away with a staggering ride.
The soldiers defending the city were dumbfounded, and the boy was lowered from between his elbows by the boy and threw himself at his ecstatic mother on the side of the road. At this moment, everyone saw that the young man who came to save people was only seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a hat and cloth clothes, and he was inconspicuous in the crowd, just like an ordinary peasant boy who had fled. However, in the twilight, he could faintly see his thick eyebrows like a sword, his face was clear, and a short black mustache on his lips showed a compelling heroic spirit.
After reassuring his mother, the boy looked back and whispered, "Let's go. 」
"Hmm" in response, and another hat flashed from behind the young man, and under the hat was a childish face. At this moment, everyone noticed that the young man was followed by a girl who was also dressed plainly. This girl looks about fourteen or fifteen years old, with delicate eyebrows and a graceful posture, although she is also a cloth coat and hat, but it is difficult to hide her moonlight and beautiful appearance. What is even more rare is that his temperament is elegant, down-to-earth and generous, leaning in front of the young man like a pair of beautiful people, everyone is fascinated by it, and he forgets the sorrow of fleeing for a while. The young man dragged the hem of his clothes by her and walked all the way out of the city in the admiration of everyone.
The two walked out of Puyang City about a mile, and they turned their heads to look at the city wall in the distance. In the confused night, the flags on Puyang City were rolled, shrouded in a solemn atmosphere. The girl suddenly whispered, "I don't know what happened to my grandfather now, I really hope he can go to Qi with us......
The young man silently and slowly turned his head to the west that gradually dissolved into ink, his bright eyes reflecting the thick inky sky, staring at the vast wilderness.
The two of them followed the crowd of refugees all the way to the east, which was the way to Qi country.
Among the "Seven Heroes of the Warring States", Qi was the most powerful country outside of Qin and Chu at that time, and because it was far away from Qin, it was relatively stable.
The crowd left Puyang for more than 20 miles and was walking to a mountain pass, when suddenly there was a lot of smoke and dust in front of them, and the sound of hooves was like thunder. The young man's expression changed greatly, and he said in a deep voice: "It's not good, I didn't expect the Qin soldiers to come so quickly!" Before the words fell, I saw the crowd of fleeing people who came to help the old and the young, scattered like a colony of ants rushing by the flood, and the Qin soldiers who came at a speed passed through the iron horses, howling for help endlessly, and many old and weak women and children who could not dodge died tragically under the hooves of the whistling and galloping horses.
The girl tugged at the young man's sleeve and exclaimed, "Those Qin soldiers are killing the people again!" The young man gritted his teeth, grabbed the girl's wrist and performed light skills, and rushed to the front with a few longitudinals, dodging behind a big tree beside the road.
I saw that there were nearly 1,000 Qin soldiers and soldiers coming on, all of them like wolves and tigers, black helmets and black armor, halberds like forests, and the most elite vanguard troops that were officially attacking from afar. The procession was speeding through without a sound except for the sound of the soldiers' horses' hooves, and the discipline was astonishing.
The young man sighed in his heart: No wonder the Qin ** team has been invincible all these years, just looking at these well-trained Qin soldiers in front of him, they are far from being comparable to the ** guard. Seeing that the Qin soldiers were besieging more and more, the Qin army was still pouring in all directions, but I was afraid that if I delayed for a while, the follow-up army would be killed, and it would be even more difficult to get out at that time. The boy and the maiden hurried down the path into the night.
The two walked for an hour, the twilight became thicker, and after another hour, they saw a mountain temple under the moonlight, and the temple door was empty, and it was as silent as death. The girl's face was pale, and her body snuggling into the boy's arms shrank slightly. The boy stepped forward and buckled the knocker, but no one answered the door. The boy stretched out his hand to push, and the temple door opened with a "creak".
The two of them tiptoed into the main hall, only to see dilapidated pillars and curtains everywhere, and dust on the ground, showing that the incense had been cut off for a long time.
The boy called twice more in the hall, but there was no response from the eerie temple except for his own long echo. The boy leaned beside him and whispered, "Probably, probably nobody! The boy found a stone pier beside the temple and helped the girl to sit down. Then he searched around for some broken wood and boards, made a fire, and then took out a bottle of medicinal powder from himself and put it on the girl's leg, and tore off a strip of cloth from the placket of his own clothes, and tied her wound.
Standing in this bleak temple, the young man's body trembled, and the fear in his heart always lingered. She stared blankly at the flames with her knees crossed, and said faintly, "Qin Jun is here, I don't know what happened to Grandpa. 」
The young man heard her worries, although he was also full of worries, but he didn't dare to show anything in front of the girl, so he had to comfort: "Sir is like a god with soldiers, there are still 100,000 elite soldiers in Puyang City, and there is also Brother Han Shen by his side, the Qin army is tired from attacking from afar, and it is difficult to get food and grass, if the city cannot be attacked, it will soon retreat, and we will go back to Puyang at that time." 」
This young man is Gongsun Yu's disciple Jing Ke, and the girl is Gongsun Yu's granddaughter, named Liji. Li Ji learned swordsmanship with her grandfather when she was young, and she and Jing Ke were commensurate with her brother and sister.
Li Ji sighed and said, "Senior brother, do you see that those Qin soldiers are a little tired just now, can we really return to Puyang one day?" Jing Ke said, "You don't have to think about it, Master just ordered me to send you to Qi Country for temporary refuge, just wait for the Qin soldiers to retreat, and we will naturally return to Puyang." 」
In the gloomy temple, the fire was extinguished, and Liji remembered that there was a flickering candle in her grandfather's room the night before, and told her earnestly:
"Tomorrow you will leave grandpa with your senior brother, you are not young anymore, grandpa has some words that you must keep in mind. Gongsun Yu sat down beside Liji, staring at Liji and speaking softly but calmly.
Li Ji looked at Gongsun Yu's solemn expression, kicked and said, "Grandpa's words, granddaughter must not dare to forget......
Gongsun Yu nodded and said, "This time the army of the Qin State is attacking, and my grandfather has received the grace of Wei Jun, so he can't be disloyal to repay it. But grandpa doesn't want to lie to you, this victory is uncertain, and grandpa is not very sure. 」
"No, grandpa......" Liji looked at Gongsun Yu worriedly.
Gongsun Yu shook his head and interrupted Li Ji's words: "Listen to me! The Qin King is ambitious, and the defense of the country is weak, even if this battle is survived, the Qin State will definitely make a comeback. Our grandson's family has been weak for generations, your parents died early, and now your grandfather is left with a granddaughter like you, you must not let your grandfather worry about you anymore, understand?"
Liki nodded, tears slipping down her face.
Gongsun Yu pretended not to see Liji's tears, and gently stroked Liji's forehead: "Do you know why grandpa entrusted you to your senior brother?"
Li Ji wiped away her tears and raised her head to look at Gongsun Yu. She suddenly found that her grandfather, who had always been serious, showed meticulous care and understanding for her in his eyes.
"Jing Ke, this kid has good conduct and talent, but he is a little impatient. You have to persuade him well in the future, you know?" Gongsun Yu didn't wait for Liji to answer, and said to himself, "Remember, stay incognito, hide the rivers and lakes, don't return to the country in this life, in case something happens to grandpa, don't try to take revenge, understand?"
Liji shook her head: "Grandpa, don't say it anymore......" She was very moved in her heart, she didn't expect that her long-hidden girlish feelings, even Jing Ke didn't notice it, but grandpa saw it in his eyes.
"Grandpa must say it, because if you don't say it, you may not have a chance to say it. Gongsun Yu looked at Li Ji affectionately and said, "Grandpa can see your heart for Jing Ke, Jing Ke, this child is also worthy of grandpa's trust, grandpa hopes that you can spend your life peacefully and not be burdened by the hatred of the country and the family, understand?"
Liki pursed her lips and bowed her head in silence.
Gongsun Yu looked up and sighed: "The world is chaotic, and there is already too much hatred between people, and Grandpa doesn't want your life to be caught in such hatred at the beginning. Gongsun Yu said and took out a piece of cloth from his arms and put it in Liji's hand, "This is my Gongsun family's family heirloom sword pedigree, as well as the record of grandpa's martial arts experience in his life, you keep it well, don't lose it." 」
Thinking of this, Liji turned to look at Jing Ke on the side. Jing Ke was in a trance, and he was also deeply immersed in his own recollections.
Jing Ke remembered that he was by Gongsun Yu's side at this moment, his close friend Han Shen. Han Shen is a roaming Mojia swordsman and Jing Ke's only confidant. The scene when he got acquainted with Han Shen was as clear as yesterday, it was an autumn morning full of fallen flowers.
At that time, Jing Ke was learning swords with Mr. Gongsun Yu, and that day, he was cleaning the fallen flowers on the doorstep, when a pair of clean cloth shoes suddenly appeared in front of him.
Han Shen's smile was not bright, but sincere, his eyes were not sharp, but they were very bright, he didn't seem to be smart, but he had a wise and foolish temperament, and Jing Ke liked this stranger almost instantly.
Han Shen looked at the young man who was sweeping the floor, and saw his persistence in his hard work. Han Shen likes persistent people, because he himself is a person who is unswerving and persevering to the end. In order to pursue his ideals, he even did not hesitate to put his heels on his heels and go to the soup to fight the fire.
Han Shen said to the young man that he had come to visit Mr. Gongsun Yu. Jing Ke said that the master was in the study. Han Shen thanked him and left, and walked out after a while. He probably felt that Gongsun Yu was too serious, and it was not as easy as facing this young man.
When Jing Ke saw Han Shen come out, he put down the broom and smiled innocently at this Han Shen. So they sat down among the fallen flowers of the earth, and talked on the ground until the sun was upon the third pole of the day. Jing Ke wanted to stay with Han Shen for lunch, Han Shen took out a pot of wine from his backpack, and the person who practiced the sword smelled the aroma of wine and immediately lifted his spirits. A young man, a teenager, talking about their respective hates and loves, talking about the experience of practicing swords, and their perception of life, before they knew it, the wine jug was empty.
By this time, the sun was setting. The two young people in the courtyard were talking happily, like confidants who had been reunited after a long absence.
A few days later, Han Shen came again. Such a meeting is full of passion and joy, and it turns out that the friendship between people is about fate. Later, Han Shen simply lived in Puyang, in order to get along with Jing Ke day and night.
Now facing a strong enemy, Han Shen decided that Gongsun Yu would defend Puyang together, but he Jing Ke couldn't live and die with his friends, how could he not be shocking?
Li Ji suddenly interrupted his thoughts: "Is Grandpa's sword book still in your arms?" Hearing this, Jing Ke hurriedly reached into his arms and probed, and took out a plain silk full of small seals, before he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, I didn't lose it when I fought with Qin Bing just now. 」
Li Ji nodded, since she left the city, she handed over the sword book entrusted to her by her grandfather to Jing Ke. Jing Ke didn't ask much, and took it for granted that it was the husband who asked her to transfer it to her. Jing Ke didn't know that in the bottom of Liji's heart, when she carefully handed over the sword score to Jing Ke's thick palm, what she delivered was not only a martial arts masterpiece that had been passed down from generation to generation on behalf of the Gongsun family, but also her nervous youthful feelings.
However, Jing Ke didn't know all this. He always thinks about his master, the country, and the world, and his heart always stops in distant ideals, so he always inadvertently misunderstands Liji's fiery eyes.
Knowing that the sword score was not lost, Liji, who was relieved, was already exhausted, and couldn't stop the deep tiredness, so she fell asleep by Jing Ke. Jing Ke looked at her delicate and bright face, but her eyebrows were tightly locked, and she couldn't help but sigh softly.
The two hid in the mountains for a few days, because they didn't know what the situation outside the mountain was, for fear of encountering the Qin army, they didn't dare to move around casually, so they had to temporarily shelter in the mountain temple.
Jing Ke was anxious, but he was helpless. This night, the two of them were sleepy in the main hall, and suddenly heard the chaotic sound of hooves and noisy voices outside the temple, and the two were taken aback. Jing Ke hurriedly pulled Liji to jump onto the altar and hide behind the idol.
I only heard many people shouting and walking into the hospital, and one said, "Damn! I ran for dozens of miles in one breath, and Lao Tzu's legs were about to break, so let's take a breath here." 」
Jing Ke heard him speak with a patriotic accent, and his voice was very familiar, and he was shocked, the door of the palace had been kicked open, and a group of people broke in in a chaotic manner. Jing Ke peeked in, but saw that the people who came were all dressed as patriotic soldiers, and most of them were bloodstained, and they were very embarrassed. The first person has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and has a rough appearance. When Jing Ke saw him, he was overjoyed, and immediately jumped out from behind the idol.
The group was relieved to see that the hall was empty, when they suddenly saw a person jumping down from the air, and they couldn't help but panic, and they retreated sharply with a "bang", and prepared to meet the enemy with their blades in hand.
At this time, Liji also jumped out from behind the idol and shouted happily, "General Peng!"
The man at the head saw the faces of the two of them clearly by the moonlight, and was also very surprised, and exclaimed, "Brother Jing, Miss Liji!"
This person's name is Peng Bu, an officer who guards the city in Puyang, and often goes to Gongsun Mansion, and the three of them have long been acquainted.
Jing Ke stepped forward and asked, "General Peng, why did you get here?" Peng Bu said "hey" and said dejectedly, "Puyang has been lost, and we are now homeless!"
Jing Ke was shocked when he heard this, grabbed Peng Bu's hand and shouted, "How can it be so fast?" Peng Bu said hatefully: "Xicheng will be broken first, and Puyang City will fall with it!" Jing Ke said in a trembling voice: "That...... What about my master?"
Peng Bu glanced at Liji on the side, bowed his head and said nothing. Jing Ke said sharply, "What the hell is going on?" Peng Bu was startled, he had never seen Jing Ke's eyes so fierce, and he snorted, "Old Mr. Gongsun has died with the city!"
Jing Ke only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he almost fell, and he heard a "plop" sound, and it turned out that Liji had passed out when he heard the words. Jing Ke hurriedly stepped forward to pick her up, held her tiger's mouth with his hand, and injected his internal force into her body.
After a long time, Li Ji slowly woke up, looked at Jing Ke's face in a daze, and suddenly hugged him and cried loudly. Jing Ke swallowed his tears, and asked Peng Budao, who was staying on the side, "What about Han Shen?"
Peng Bu said, "After the Han Shen brothers fought with us out of the city, they were separated from the others. Jing Ke's grief eased slightly, he knew that with Han Shen's martial arts, as long as he could get out of the city, it would be fine, and although he was mentally prepared for Mr. Gongsun's martyrdom, he still couldn't help but feel heartache.
At that moment, Peng Bu slowly recounted the tragedy that happened on the day of the city break.
Gongsun Yu knew that Meng Fu was a famous general of the Qin State and was good at using strange soldiers, so he ordered the soldiers of the city to be careful and strengthen their vigilance. The clinker Qin army came quickly, almost just appeared outside Puyang City, and the next moment it had launched a fierce attack like a frenzy.
The dust of war covers the sun, and the sound of killing shakes the sky.
Gongsun Yu commanded the soldiers, leaning on the high wall, and struggled to resist. How could the enemy be outnumbered, and the 100,000 Qin army surged up in waves in the earth-shaking rumbling war drums. At noon, the defender of Xicheng was killed, and the deputy general fled, so the city wall was broken by the Qin soldiers, and the large army of the Qin army in black armor poured in like a tide from the gap.
Gongsun Yu fought and retreated until there was no way out, and finally stood majestically on the inner city wall, his robe was bloody, and his face was pale. He clenched a bronze sword in his hand, and his sharp gaze stared directly at the enemy army under the city. The enemy force numbered in the hundreds, led by a bearded man, who was swift as the wind and fierce in his attacks, and no matter how desperately the defenders in front of him tried to intercept him, they could not stop his advance.
This person was none other than Thunderbolt, one of King Qin's four great guards.
Gongsun Yu's heart sank secretly. He knew that Thunderbolt's martial arts were very good. In order to seize the city of Puyang, in addition to sending the general Meng Fu and 100,000 elite soldiers, King Yingzheng of Qin also specially sent his personal guard Thunderbolt to lead a pair of guards to supervise the formation, which shows that he is very jealous of Gongsun Yu.
Gongsun Yu sighed deeply, turned his head and said in a deep voice, "Brother Han. 」
Most of Han Shen stepped forward. He has a serious and resolute expression, a pair of eyes that are shining, and he is obviously the kind of person who will not give up easily, no matter what difficulties he faces.
Gongsun Yu's expression was solemn and said, "The fall of Puyang is imminent, Brother Han, please take these brothers away quickly. As he spoke, he pointed to Peng Bu and the dozens of remaining soldiers.
Everyone does not change color. Han Shen said in a deep voice, "Won't Mr. Gongsun leave with us?"
Gongsun Yu said categorically: "The city is in the people, and today is the time for Gongsun Yu to repay the country with death. Han Shen frowned, and was about to persuade, but Gongsun Yu had already jumped up the steps and said in a loud voice, "I'll drag them down, you guys go quickly." 」
After speaking, he raised the bronze sword in his hand and strode towards the enemy.
Han Shen gritted his teeth, he understood Gongsun Yu's intentions. Gongsun Yu was bent on death, but he didn't want to let those soldiers who got along day and night also die on the battlefield, so he let them evacuate quickly.
The Qin army is swarming in all directions, and if it is a little delayed, I am afraid that no one will be able to leave. But Han Shen couldn't bear to give up Mr. Gongsun, so he shouted: "Mr. Gongsun, let the younger generation come and break the queen!"
Seeing Han Shen like this, Gongsun Yu couldn't help but widen his eyes angrily, and shouted loudly: "Brother Han doesn't retreat quickly, don't let the old man die without turning a blind eye!" As he spoke, he jumped into the formation of the Qin army, swung his sword and slashed wildly, and the Qin soldiers fell one after another.
At this moment, with a strange roar, a burly and sturdy figure in the Qin army came out of the crowd, holding a long sword in his hand, blocking Gongsun Yu's nineteen swords. This person is the third of the four guardians of King Qin, the "Wind Forest Volcano", "Thunderbolt Fire".
The thunderbolt fire was born on the back of a bear's waist and a tiger's back, and the momentum was pressing, and the long sword in his hand danced like a tiger, forcing Gongsun Yu. Gongsun Yu stepped on a strange step, the lightning moved, shouted, his wrist shook, the bronze sword was like a snake spitting out a letter, turning into ten thousand cold rays, wanting to stab with thunderbolt fire, the thunderbolt fire horizontal sword blocked, the two swords intersected, and a series of thrilling gold and iron sounds burst out when landing.
Here, the Qin soldiers had surrounded Han Shen, and another group of Qin soldiers surrounded Gongsun Yu from all sides. Gongsun Yu was attacked in all directions, secretly calling out that it was not good, the long sword was blocked on the top and the bottom was sealed, the left was blocked on the right, and with the wonderful footwork of the ancestor Guiguzi, he did his best, on the one hand, he dealt with the thunderbolt fire continuously, the well-known Tengyun sword style, and on the other hand, he had to release the Qin Wang guards to sneak attack left and right.
The sound of swords clashing was endless, and the fierce battle was even more fierce.
After fighting for half an hour, the two sides still had no winner. Gongsun Yu has been on the battlefield for a long time and has rich experience, although he is not suitable for a long time in terms of physical strength, but with his clever footwork and exquisite moves, he not only blocked the crazy attack of the thunderbolt fire alone, but also entangled the attack of the soldiers of the Qin State. Thunderbolt Fire was in the prime of life, as powerful as an ox, after more than 100 rounds of fighting, he had already felt anxious, and suddenly the sword turned around, turning into countless sword circles to wrap Gongsun Yu's bronze sword, trying to entangle Gongsun Yu's sword moves, so that the guards beside him could win more. Gongsun Yu concentrated on the battle, and shook a few sword flowers to dissolve the thunderbolt fire sword circle. At this moment, a whip wind struck from behind. Gongsun Yu hurriedly dodged sideways, and the bronze sword was swept down by the sword circle of the thunderbolt fire, but at this critical moment, he was able to avoid the sharp whip of the attack. At this time, Gongsun Yu knew that in order to attack the small Puyang, King Qin not only sent a thunderbolt, but also sent another master in the "Wind Forest Volcano" - the python whip forest.
Python Whip Lin was taken aback when he saw that his elusive whip failed to hit Gongsun Yu, and then he flicked his wrist, and the long whip swirled and rolled towards Gongsun Yu. At the same time, the Thunderbolt's sword swept over.
Gongsun Yu had no weapons in his hands, so he had already suffered a big loss, and he was still alone in the face of two peerless masters, and there were Qin soldiers besieging him, and he was in a desperate situation in an instant. However, Gongsun Yu was extremely calm at the moment, he hit his right elbow and knocked down a Qin soldier, grabbed the halberd with his hand, toe a little, his body rose in the air, the halberd stabbed obliquely, and he had already knocked down three Qin soldiers, and then the halberd handle was sent back, just on the tip of the sword of the thunderbolt fire. Thunderbolt felt a strong surge coming, and immediately changed its tactics to unload its strength. And Gongsun Yu didn't pause, the long halberd twitched, and stabbed the python whip Lin in the chest with the tip of the halberd. The python whip Lin was shocked, hurriedly turned the long whip, wrapped up Gongsun Yu's halberd, and pulled it to the side hard, avoiding the tip of the halberd.
After thirty rounds, although Gongsun Yu said that his martial arts were superb and his internal strength was profound, after all, he was getting older, and he gradually felt that his strength was not enough, and he had been inspecting the fortifications of the city without sleep for several days, coupled with the battle with the Qin army in this half day, which had consumed most of his mind. After Fang Cai was single-mindedly broken off for Han Shen and the others, he was able to concentrate on dragging Thunderbolt Fire and the elite guards led by him, and when he forgot himself, it seemed that he had more than enough to deal with, but in fact he was close to running out of oil. Now seeing that Han Shen and the others are gradually breaking through, as soon as their hearts are relieved, they feel that their bodies are empty and their whole bodies are exhausted. Coupled with the continuous offensive of the Thunderbolt Fire and the Python Whip Forest, although he can still hold on, he also knows that he will not be spared. Now, even if there was only a slight chance, he was determined to die with these two.
Just thinking about it, the python whip forest suddenly shook the long whip in his hand quickly, turning into countless large and small circle shadows, wrapped around Gongsun Yu's body in front of and behind him, and the thunderbolt fire at the same time looked at the gap in the circle, and used Gongsun Yu's full attention to deal with the long whip, and deceived himself.
This is one of the stunts of the python whip forest and the thunderbolt fire to join forces, and the reason why the four masters of the Qin Palace often play an offensive that is several times more than the ability to fight alone. The four masters have run in with each other to make countless joint attacks, two people have two people's joint secret skills, three people have three people's joint attack moves, and the four people are almost invincible.
At this moment, what the Python Whip Forest and Thunderbolt Fire were using was the formation that the two of them had been practicing for a long time. The shadow of the long whip of the python whip forest is virtual and real, and it seems to be dense inside and out, and it circles people around, and they can't go out or enter outside. In fact, there have already been a few gaps left, and as long as the thunderbolt is matched with the whip ring formation, the strange footwork of the footwork, and the gaps in the whip circle, it can give the opponent who is trapped in the whip circle a fatal blow by surprise. In this formation, since the two of them walked the rivers and lakes, they have never missed, and they can always kill their opponents at the last moment.
It's a pity that this time their opponent is Gongsun Yu.
In addition to the family heirloom stunt, Gongsun Yu's swordsmanship also taught Guiguzi, who was proficient in the formation, so his swordsmanship implied a formation, and the circle formation formed by the long whip of the python whip forest was not worth it at all in his eyes. He caught a glimpse of the thunderbolt's body flashing, and quickly rushed towards him from the gap between the whip rings like a ghost, and his heart was bright, and he understood the trick of the two, but he was overjoyed, knowing that his opportunity to die with these two masters had come.
But seeing Gongsun Yu's body turning, he deliberately exposed his back to the thunderbolt fire, and then the long halberd was horizontally picked up, and he controlled the circle formed by the long whip. With one pull and one lead, the whip circle array suddenly messed up the formation, and the thunderbolt fire that was breaking into the formation in the opposite direction swept away. The python whip forest was shocked, and he was suffering from the circle formation made by Gongsun Yu, and he was afraid that the whip circle would hurt his brother, so he simply took the long whip off his hand to reduce the strength of the whip circle, and rushed up with both hands and fists. Gongsun Yu was not in a hurry, what he wanted was the long whip of the python whip forest. I saw that his back was like a long eye, and he shot the halberd with his backhand, and he aimed at the long sword of Thunderbolt Fire, and with the other hand, he grabbed the long whip and turned around and raised it, and at the same time turned around and violently struck Thunderbolt with a long fist in the chest. Thunderbolt Fire saw Gongsun Yu suddenly turn around, halberd and fist together, and even calmly used the long sword to open the long halberd, and the remaining hand blocked Gongsun Yu's long fist with one palm, and at the same time stabbed Gongsun Yu in the chest with the long sword, Gongsun Yu just dodged to dodge, almost at the same moment, the python whip forest's double fists hit Gongsun Yu's backbone, and suddenly there was a sound of broken bones and tendons, which was chilling. Gongsun Yu held up the last breath of true qi, gathered the true miles that he had cultivated all his life, and stabbed the halberd at the other party, but unfortunately he was dodged by the python whip forest.
Gongsun Yu slowly fell......
The dark clouds are sad, and the gale is choking. The entire city witnessed Gongsun Yu's tragic final battle.
Before she could finish listening, Jing Ke was already in tears, and Liji cried even more. The rest of the soldiers also hid their faces and wept. Peng Bu beat his chest and said, "Mr. Gongsun's sacrifice brought us out of danger!" Jing Ke pulled Li Ji and went north to worship Mr. Gongsun's ghost. Jing Ke clasped his palms together and swore an oath: "The disciple will avenge the master!" After the salute was over, he was about to say something to Peng Bu, when suddenly a soldier stumbled in outside the door and shouted, "The Qin soldiers are coming, brothers retreat!"
Peng Bu was in a hurry and said to Jing Ke, "Brother Jing, come with us!" Jing Ke's mind was racing, and he said, "No, it is too conspicuous for so many people to go on the road together, it is better to disperse and walk. Peng Bu nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Jing, Miss Liji, take care!" Jing Ke said in a low voice, "Take care." 」
The defeated soldiers of the country ran away in an instant, and Jing Ke hurriedly pulled the sad Liji out of the mountain temple and ran towards the back mountain. When they first marched, they could still hear the shouting of the Qin soldiers, and they couldn't help but speed up their pace, and gradually walked away until the surroundings were silent. When they ran to the top of the back mountain and looked down, they saw that the torches under the mountain were bright, and there were Qin soldiers searching the mountain everywhere. Jing Ke looked east, the east was already slightly white, and the place where the morning sun rose was the place where he went. But his enemies are in the West, at the end of the sun's setting.
He's walking in a circle, the arc is his determination, there is no end.
