Chapter 85 [Assault]
This is the fifth day when Luo Xiao joined the Luo family's chariot and horse team. The group had left Dingbei County, left Beiyang County, entered Qijiang County, and once they passed through Qijiang County, they actually arrived at the capital.
Along the way, Luo Yangde was extremely polite to Luo Xiao, and he had the intention of inquiring about his background inside and outside. Luo Xiao was vague, which made Luo Yangde unable to understand the key points. Seeing that the other party was polite, he extinguished his intention of inquiring and revealed his intention to recruit him. The conditions offered were quite generous - at least in the eyes of the other three martial artists who were both fifth-level guards, the treatment of a newcomer was actually quite generous with those of them.
Luo Xiao naturally declined. Whether Luo Yangde's move was thankful for his son's favor or really valued his "fifth-level warrior"'s strength, the result was all destined.
Qijiang has many mountains and rivers, and the climate is obviously wet and rainy than Heshuo and other counties. It took only two days after the carriages and horses entered Qijiang. Today, the sky finally cleared, so I rushed to the muddy road. I wanted to arrive at a city ahead before it was dark, but I didn't expect that the road was blocked by a piece of collapsed mud and stones and trees. After cleaning it, it was estimated that the sky would be almost dark.
"It seems that I will sleep in the open tonight, I hope it won't rain again."
The servants of the Luo family sighed one by one, and under the assignment of Manager Tao, they cleaned up, camped up, and cooked.
Under the command of the guard leader He Songnian, seven or eight guards scattered a hundred steps away and set up a warning post. They went east and occasionally couldn't catch up with the rest of the house and slept in the wild, but they never attached so much importance to the warning. Obviously, these were all the sequelae of Mr. Luo's attack.
Since it is idle, it is also idle. The most important thing is that it is not easy for people to see themselves idle. Luo Xiao plans to conduct today's training in advance.
Luo Xiao first reported to Luo Yangde, then walked towards a dense forest not far away with his hands, greeted two bright and dark whistles in the forest, and walked forward about a little outside, almost all of them walked out of the forest. Luo Xiao searched first, and confirmed that there was no one within a hundred steps. He reached out and pressed the mark of the immortal stone, and his whole person suddenly disappeared.
On the Xianshi Cave Heavenly Platform, Luo Xiao’s figure appeared. While taking a deep breath of the rich spiritual energy that was both refreshing, he walked to the edge of the platform, raised his toes, hooked up the dragon scales and flew the shield, raised his arms and inserted it into the leather case, waved his arms and striking it, and the Yuanli was thrust.
"start!"
It took three hours outside, and it was already three months in the cave.
"The aura of the sixth level is really cool!"
In the fairy stone cave heaven, Luo Xiao, who had finished his "three months" practice, breathed a long breath, and used his depressed breathing technique to condense a "snap shell" and sealed all the powerful auras that reached the seventh level.
This feeling of self-proclaimed strength is actually not good. It is like a man who is as light as a swallow, but is full of iron sandbags all over his body. His every move is extremely heavy, and he is extremely bound to feel uncomfortable and he is not able to do anything. Fortunately, Luo Xiao can enter the fairy stone cave almost every day and release his stretches to the fullest, otherwise he will be really depressed.
The last training today is archery.
A hundred steps away, a plate was floating in the air. The plate was very ordinary, which was a porcelain plate commonly used for serving dishes. From a hundred steps away, it looked like a small white dot, about the same size as an ant.
Luo Xiao held the bow in his hand, and when his palm moved, three arrows were added between his fingers. He almost didn't even look at the target, and he shot out one arrow!
The arrow hit the target accurately, and the plate was broken and more than ten pieces of size were blown away.
However, Luo Xiao had no expression on his face, because the real training has only begun now.
Whoosh!
Two arrows shot out and accurately hit two pieces of broken porcelain pieces that were flying at high speed, which exploded into pieces.
Then there was a crackling sound. In just three breaths, Luo Xiao shot seven arrows very quickly, but the arrows did not fall into nothing. The bursts of explosive pieces of porcelain were like clusters of colorful fireworks under the reflection of the colorful stone gate.
It was not until the potential energy of the broken porcelain pieces that were blown away from the everywhere and slowly stopped that Luo Xiao hung his bow and arrow.
"Nine arrows! One more arrow than three months ago, and it's improved." Luo Xiao breathed deeply for several seconds, calming down and breathing slightly rapid due to high-speed shooting.
If Luo Xiao showed such archery skills to the outside world, he would definitely deserve the reputation of a first-class sharpshooter.
To put it in detail, Luo Xiao is quite talented in archery because of his hunter background, and his archery skills are also very good, but it was only good half a year ago. Not to mention the entire kingdom, even if he was only in Yishui Martial Arts Hall, he had seen several senior brothers who were not inferior to him, let alone teach them archery skills.
However, at this moment, Luo Xiao was sure that his archery skills were far superior to them - not because of talent or spiritual energy, but because of diligence!
Any slasher who is not lacking in talent and has the correct training method will likely become a sharpshooter if he has been practicing hard for more than ten years. However, Luo Xiao has been immersed in archery for less than ten years. What is really a "ten-year sharpening arrow". The achievements in front of him are definitely not a lucky chance.
Only by being talented and hardworking can one live up to the experience.
After completing a base training, Luo Xiao cleaned up and thought that the road had almost been opened, and he flashed out of the outside world.
As soon as Luo Xiao appeared, he found that something was wrong. There was a faint scream and a fight outside the forest. It was obvious that something had happened. Luo Xiao's face changed. It was okay for Luo Zifeng, but Luo Yangde was a key figure in his own Lingpu Plan, so he would not have to do anything. He pressed and pulled his palm, and the horn bow and a pot of arrow appeared in his hand. The quiver was tied to his back, holding the horn bow, and his footsteps tightened and he quickly ran out of the woods.
When Luo Xiao rushed to the edge of the forest, he smelled a thick blood at the end of his nose, and two twisted corpses on the ground came into his eyes. They were the two bright and dark guards he encountered when he entered the forest before.
Luo Xiao raised his eyes and saw the fires flashing outside the forest through the sparse branches and leaves. The servants held torches and surrounded a carriage, all with blue faces and white lips, and trembling.
In the carriage, Luo Zifeng, whose faces were ugly, was still slim and his body was still slim. He was holding a long sheathed sword tightly in his hand. The sword had been unsheathed three inches, and the sharpness reflected the fire, bright and dazzling. More than ten pairs of eyes stared at the fierce fighting dozens of steps away.
The guard leader He Songnian and Gao Peng, the guard guard, were holding swords and guns, and joined forces to fight against the strong man and the old man who plotted against Luo Zifeng that day. The four of them were all fifth-level strength. In the sword light and sword shadows, martial arts energy burst from time to time, and sometimes the mysterious Yuan power exploded, and even the violent collision of weapons was covered. The unstable white light reflected the pale faces, which made the curled figure of brocade clothes on the ground look particularly distinct and shocking.
"Tai Kaiyun!" Luo Xiao also recognized from the other party's brocaded martial artists, one of the two Jinyi knights who were driving the way for the Luo family's chariot and horse team. Although Luo Xiao had not had much contact with the other party in the past few days, he had at least become familiar with him. However, at this moment, he could no longer recognize this person.
Tai Kaiyun's wide face was pitch black, and it was even more swollen and deformed. Dark purple bloodshot from his mouth, nose, eyes and ears, and his death was extremely terrifying.
"He is a master of poison use." In front of him, Tai Kaiyun's death was contacted by Luo Zifeng's plot, and Luo Xiao instantly understood something, and his eyes were fixed on the thin old man who was not very handsome.
The old man's opponent was Gao Peng. After Luo Zifeng's cultivation level plummeted, Gao Peng in the middle of the fifth stage was the strongest person at the moment. The old man used a double dagger and took a clever and light path. Gao Peng was tall and strong, and his simple knife was heavy and powerful. Logically speaking, it should have been to suppress the old man. However, in fact, the big knife that should have been opened and closed was restricted by Gao Peng and could not be used at all. However, the old man's double dagger was like a swimming fish, and the knife was always as sharp as Gao Peng's key points, making him stand on his left and right clumsy, and was suppressed by the old man who was obviously inferior to him.
Luo Xiao only glanced at the dark blue daggers in the old man's hand and understood the whole story. Anyone who faced this terrible poisonous blade that was blood-sealed, would inevitably suffer from huge psychological pressure. It is not surprising that his strength was greatly reduced - Tai Kaiyun, who was tragic in his death, was still lying there.
He Songnian and the strong man on the other side are both in the fifth stage. Both of them are power-type. One uses an iron mace and the other dances with copper sticks to attack and attack. Each attack makes Mars splash everywhere, deafening and difficult to distinguish.
The situation seemed to be stable, so Luo Xiao was not in a hurry to take action. It was not difficult to analyze from the scene that the two killers should have taken action to clear all the light and dark whistles first - it was not difficult to clean up a group of third and fourth levels with two fifth levels, especially when one of them was good at using poison. Then, perhaps it was alarmed by Tai Kaiyun, and was suddenly attacked by the old man while observing the movement and was injured, and the poison was killed, and finally attracted He and Gao and two others intercepted him.
This is probably the whole process. Perhaps the road cutoff is also part of the attack plan... But what puzzled Luo Xiao was that it was hard to say if these two killers took action secretly, but now that the Ming Dao and Ming Gun were facing each other, did he think that with their strength, he could break through the interception of two warriors of the same level and kill Luo Zifeng?
Before this thought could be completed, Luo Xiao suddenly seemed to have some senses, and his eyes were like lightning toward the forest not far away.
After a few short breaths, a blue-gray figure swept across the treetops like a big bird, passed through the four-person battle group, and pounced on the carriage like a ghost.
The next moment, the servants who protected the carriage screamed and threw them around like straw. Blood rained everywhere. Luo Zifeng's roar and sword light lit up at the same time, and the milky white surging Yuan power was like a silver bottle breaking and flowing light.
The carriage was split into pieces under the violent Yuan power. Luo Yangde's fat body rolled away like a ball, and the target Luo Zifeng was even blown away several feet away. His back hit the tree trunk and rebounded and fell. He didn't know where the sword in his hand was thrown.
Chapter completed!
