Chapter 381 It's You (Last Part)
After all, these elite caravans are not real soldiers in the army. They are much worse in their minds and responses, especially when facing a strong enemy, they are even more mentally and slow to react. It was not until Li Ling shouted loudly that he woke up like a dream and quickly lit up the crossbow he carried with him.
However, this loud shout also reminded the Luotian scholars at both ends that they were still paying attention to their guardians fighting against the enemy, so they quickly lit their bows and raised their swords and rushed forward. But they, who were not from the army, were more than a beat slower, because at this time, more than ten people on the caravan had already shown their crossbows and aimed at them.
At this time, there was no need for Li Ling to give another order. Looking at the enemy who was purging him by his claws, the crossbowmen immediately pulled down the hanging knife, fired sharp arrows, and took the enemy who was nearly twenty or thirty steps away.
As a weapon that is prohibited by the people, this crossbow is much more useful than a bow. You only need to set the target and then use your hand to push the machine to drive the arrows to fly out as fast as possible. If you use the bow, it will take a lot of time just to aim and pull the bow, not to mention a certain accuracy on your hands. So, with a few sob sounds breaking through the air, more than ten arrows have quickly entered the enemy who had just started, and they screamed and turned over.
This is not over, because this batch of crossbows is still a more sophisticated crossbow. After seeing the enemy being shot down by him, the crossbow's heart was even more at ease. He aimed at the next target again, pulled down the hanging knife again, and then there was another strange sound. After shooting several people, the other Luotian scholars were so scared that they dared not go forward again. Instead, they waved their weapons and retreated straight.
But this retreat put them in a more unfavorable situation, because what followed was not only more than a dozen crossbow arrows, but dozens of arrows released by the bows also covered them like raindrops.
Originally, the equipment configuration of this caravan was not weaker than that of the elite Dingxi Army. He was just suddenly attacked and forgot to fight back in panic. But now, the situation has improved, and Li Ling has issued an order, so they quickly stabilized their positions and began to use their own long-range strikes to counterattack the enemy.
After several consecutive rounds of arrows, nearly half of the enemies behind them had fallen, and the rest had already fled far away in a hurry and could no longer pose a threat to the caravan. The enemies in front, after seeing Shao Qiuxi being blocked and the opponent had such sharp counterattack methods, did not dare to get closer, and hurriedly retreated and opened up the distance.
A deliberate ambush at this moment, the two armies faced the frontal front, and the caravan, which had more weapons, was still taking the initiative.
However, everyone knows that this time, the one who really dominates success or failure is not the number of them, but the one who is fighting against each other, killing Shao Xiao and the others who are indistinguishable. If Shao Qiuxi can defeat Xiao Qian, even if the crossbow is in hand, he may not be able to block his thrust attack.
The two of them also understood this, so they had no reservations at this moment. The sword came out like the wind, constantly slashing and cutting the thorns at Xiao Qian's vital points. The short halberd turned into black dragons with countless clones, and could always block every knife from every angle. Sometimes they could see a chance to stab Shao Qiuxi's vital points in the chest, forcing him to only stop the moves to defend and win the next opportunity for his changes.
The two of them fought too quickly, and the two figures were on this narrow and steep mountain road, and they kept changing and moving forward and retreating on the mountain road facing a thousand feet of cliff, which made people dazzled and frightened. Moreover, the exchange between the two was still so abrupt and rapid. Sometimes, even though Shao Qiuxi was on the edge of the cliff, in the blink of an eye, General Xiao Gan was about to fall from the cliff.
But before anyone could worry about him, he turned around again. The man had already leaned against the cliff on the other side and launched a more fierce attack, forcing the opponent to avoid it.
It is precisely because the two of them were too fast and the changes were too big that others on both sides were not easy to intervene. Li Ling really wanted to order the arrow to give Shao Qiuxi a head-on attack. Even if he couldn't hurt him, he could distract him and create opportunities for Xiao Gan. But in this situation, the arrow really shot over, and I really don't know which one would suffer.
So in the end, everyone could only endure the impulse and became bystanders.
However, not everyone was willing to watch the battle just by the side. Yang Zhen's eyes were locked on Shao Qiuxi, feeling and experiencing the opponent's body technique and sword skills to advance and retreat. Because he knew very well that although Xiao Gan could fight with him, there was still a gap in his true strength. Once he fought for a long time, Xiao Gan would definitely be defeated.
Since that's the case, we need help from the side. However, it's not just a reckless killer, but a right chance. With Yang Zhen's martial arts and eyesight, it's not impossible to find opportunities. At least in this period, he has captured three opportunities.
But this opportunity comes suddenly and goes quickly, and it often flashes in a flash, causing him a moment of helplessness.
"If you have a chance, although his sword skills are changeable, there are traces to follow. After three swords to the left, there will be a change of direction and backwards. At this time, he will inevitably put the sword in a slight adjustment. This is the biggest gap!" As he was thinking in his mind, Yang Zhen stepped hard, and his body was already secretly accumulating energy.
As long as you see it well and have seven more tricks, this continuous change will occur!
"Swish, Swish, Swish..." As he expected, Shao Qiuxi had three consecutive swords as fast as thunder, slashing so hard that Xiao Gan could only retreat and dodge. This time, he had room for adjustment. He paused slightly and took a step back a little.
"Opportunity!" While this thought flashed through his mind, Yang Zhen had already pounced forward decisively, and a flash of sword light rushed behind the other party.
This time, beyond the expectations of many people, Yang Zhen seized the best opportunity with this move. The knife was straight towards Shao Qiuxi's back. If he still followed the previous move, he would suffer a great loss. The Luotian Sect, who understood this, immediately screamed in surprise, trying to remind his guardian, but it was obviously a little late.
And Xiao Gan, who had just distanced himself from Shao Qiuxi, shouted at the moment, and he shouted, "Be careful of fraud!"
"What..." Yang Zhen suddenly felt a sudden shock and suddenly realized that he had been trapped. The terrible master in front of him who could assassinate Dingxi Hou among millions of people. How could he reveal such a big flaw in fighting with others? And he also showed flaws many times in a row. Isn't this luring his opponent to seize this opportunity?
In addition, he is facing Xiao Gan, who is also a master at the first level of the world's master. He will not be able to capture such obvious flaws face to face, and will he always miss it?
It was my fault. This was a trap. It was a trick to lure the enemy in Shao Qiuxi's sword technique!
But Yang Zhen, who understood this, had no time to stop the move. This was a knife that was accumulated and used all his strength. It was not easy to stop. However, Shao Qiuxi, who seemed passive in front of him, suddenly stopped at this moment. While turning sideways, his wrist trembled, and the knife had already passed through his own slit, and it came first, stabbing Yang Zhen in the chest.
This change is like an antelope hanging on its horns, making people unable to guess the situation. Yang Zhen used another trick to make him old, and he could not change his move to save himself. He could only watch the tip of the knife coming, and he was about to take his own life.
"Don't hurt my brother!" With a loud shout, a man rushed from the side at a faster speed. However, Yang Chen burst out with greater power at this moment and rushed over at a faster speed. He couldn't think of a sword again. The only thing he could do was to use his body to block the knife.
"Puchi--" As the blade entered the body, blood also splattered, and the knife directly fell into Yang Chen's shoulder! Relying on this completely ignored save, he actually helped Yang Zhen block the fatal knife, but he was seriously injured.
But the effect of this move was still extremely obvious. One was to save Yang Zhen, and the other was to suffocate Shao Qiuxi's sword, which made him unable to draw the sword and turn around in an instant.
Xiao Gan, who was already shocked to realize that something was wrong, wouldn't he miss such a great opportunity? His body was decisively rushing forward again while retreating. The short halberd turned into a black lightning and stabbed Shao Qiuxi's back.
Shao Qiuxi wanted to turn around and dodge, but saw a sword light flying straight towards him. It was Yang Zhen, whose eyes were red, who kept turning into a stab and slashing him. At the same time, the knife in his hand was clamped by Yang Chen's shoulder blades and could not be pulled out for a while. It was difficult to swing the knife to defend.
This is the last great benefit of Yang Chen sacrificing himself to block it. The position of his knife was much more useful than his chest. Once he endured the pain and exerted force, he actually blocked the "Kunlun Sword King"'s knife.
As soon as he couldn't pull, the knives and halberds on both sides had already arrived.
At this critical moment, Shao Qiuxi suddenly abandoned his sword and leaped his body. At the same time, with his left hand moving, another cold light flashed, and two tingling sounds were falling on the two weapons passing by, causing the sword and halberd to shake, quickly swinging away, making them unable to continue chasing. He then took advantage of the momentum in the air and landed on the end of the cliff, temporarily stabilizing his body.
All these changes came too quickly. From Yang Zhen's sudden attack, to Yang Chen's self-sacrifice, to Shao Qiuxi's desperate self-rescue, all of which were completed in just a short moment, which made everyone on both sides stunned and forgot what to react.
Only Xiao Gan, after one move failed, his eyes flashed, his body turned rapidly, and the short halberd flew out again: "The knife in the sleeve! But the short halberd is long, I see how you fight again!" After pointing out the opponent's move, he rushed forward decisively, just about to take advantage of this to kill the enemy in one fell swoop.
Yang Zhen also quickly reacted, not caring about checking the injuries of his brother who had fallen to the ground, and he also pounced on him decisively and cooperated with Xiao Gan to kill him towards the target. This enemy is too terrible and we must take this opportunity to keep him.
But at this moment, a voice sounded from the side: "Stop! Or I'll take his life!"
Hearing this familiar voice and turning his eyes to the eye, Xiao Gan and Yang Zhen stopped their movements, and even more incredible expressions appeared on their faces. Because they suddenly discovered that Li Ling was carrying a sharp steel knife on his neck at this moment.
