Chapter 2 Heroes

I took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Are you serious about this?"

Zhou Taibini looked at me and saw the horse beside me, and was a little surprised: "Boy, I actually made the move, I can't tell you that I have some strength. Let's go to the shore and we'll hit you."

Zhou Tai said as he took off his collared top, revealing his long-lived and strong muscles. On his naked chest, the condensed scars were clearly visible.

Everyone leaned on the shore as they said, and there was an open land beside the river. The thieves and soldiers were automatically divided into two strands, standing behind me and Zhou Tai. Compared with the confidence of the thieves over there, the soldiers behind me were all dark and listless. They had less confidence in the battle between me and Zhou Tai than me.

I cheered up and put my halberd in my hand, saying, "I've learned this!"

After saying that, I kicked my feet suddenly, jumped up, and suddenly turned into a rushing forward. At the same time, the short halberd in my hand pierced forward, and the spear tips of the halberd were shining with dazzling light like a miracle, stabbing Zhou Tai's abdomen, as if the clouds beside the colorful clouds were light and swift.

The short halberd's tactics are mainly cut and stabbing. Among them, cut is mainly to hurt the enemy, and stabbing is to kill the enemy. This move is the killing move I learned when fighting against the enemy on weekdays. I know that in today's battle, the opponent is too much stronger than me. If there is any delay or hesitation, I may not be able to support the three-way combination, so I must seize the opportunity to have a chance to win.

Zhou Tai sneered, stood there with the axe and did not move. When the halberd approached, he only raised his left axe to block it. The axe mouth spread out. A strong impact force came from the short halberd that was in contact with the axe. I almost abandoned the short halberd.

"Eat my move!" Before I could come back to my senses, Zhou Tai's right axe slashed over like a world-breaking world. The fierce axe force swept over like a sea of ​​storms, and in a flash it covered my vitals. Seeing that it was too late, I quickly fell to the ground and rolled on the ground. The axe wind swept across my cheeks, and a stinging sting.

The soldiers behind me had some hope for me, but after this first match, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh. Just now, the attack and defense were determined to be judged. Unless a miracle happened, I would never be able to survive the next two rounds.

"Come again!" Zhou Tai was so angry that he took a step forward, and turned like a wheel of a big axe with his right hand. The tiger-huge axe wind actually rolled up the dead leaves on the ground and slashed towards me in half. If this axe was implemented, I would be cut into two pieces. At the same time, after finding out my background in the first round, Zhou Tai's left-hand axe did not take the defensive again, and he cut down directly towards me with one force.

In this second round, Zhou Tai's right-hand axe cut off the route of my left and right movements, and his left-hand axe prevented me from making the "lazy donkey roll" and dodge. No matter how I adapt, it is impossible for me to dodge these two killer moves at the same time.

I had no choice but to take one move! I gritted my teeth, avoided the stronger right-hand axe, and struggled to build a short halberd to take over the axe that Zhou Tai slashed straight down next time. "Cang--." With the loud sound of gold and iron clashing, my hands were numb, and then I felt a torn pain coming from the tiger's mouth.

"No, I was knocked out of my mouth!"

At this time, Zhou Tai's right axe turned sharply and swung toward my left shoulder, while the left axe firmly pressed my short halberd, making me unable to move. If it was cut by Zhou Tai's axe, my left arm would be gone. I let out a muffled groan, opened my mouth and bit the tip of my tongue. With the stimulation of this pain, I twisted my body to the other side. The axe almost swept across my left shoulder. Although it avoided the vital points of the shoulder bone, the powerful axe still cut off a large piece of my left arm, and blood rushed out in an instant.

"Subduing or not?" Zhou Tai shouted.

I bit my lip and said, "I will never surrender if I die."

"Good boy, I'll see how you can hold on with the next round!" Zhou Tai smiled wildly at the sky, lifting the axe to prepare to slash another axe.

Taking advantage of Zhou Tai's chance to relax, I gathered up my last remaining strength and gathered my power to throw the short halberd towards Zhou Tai. The short halberd immediately turned into a sharp light that penetrated the world and shot directly towards Zhou Tai. Because the two were too close to each other, when Zhou Tai realized, the tip of the halberd had arrived in front of him. The thieves watching the battle could not help but shout when they saw Zhou Tai in danger.

The usage of halberds is not only conventional cutting and stabbing, throwing and hurting the enemy is the most powerful move. In the past, Jing Ke made a plan to assassinate the King of Qin. When he was injured and fell to the ground, he rose up to throw a short dagger at Ying Zheng, but his effectiveness was not much different from that of halberds. At the same time, since halberds are generally used in close combat, the distance between the enemy and us is very close. At this time, one side suddenly threw the halberd out unexpectedly, and the other side often had no time to react.

However, although this throw is powerful, it also has a big loophole, that is, if the opponent dodges, the throwing party will face the unfavorable situation of fighting against the enemy with bare hands. Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, throwing a halberd cannot be used casually. And now, I have undoubtedly reached the critical moment of survival and death. Even if I hold the short halberd in my hand, it is useless. This throw is the right time.

Seeing that Zhou Tai was not enough to return to the axe to rescue him, his face turned pale, and his eyes staring at the halberd sharply became sharp. He saw his body lying backwards with a very sensational look, and he fell to the sky in a very "iron-plate bridge" posture. The halberd tip almost brushed past his nose.

If Zhou Tai stood up to attack, I could only wait for it. At this moment, I could no longer control anything else. Before Zhou Tai stood up, he rubbed his body and hugged Zhou Tai, and tightly tied his neck with his right hand. Zhou Tai did not expect that I would pounce on him at all costs. This close-fitting tactic can be said to be almost a rogue, which made him empty and powerful axe in his hand useless, and on the contrary became a drag.

Zhou Tai quickly struggled hard, stabbing me with the handle of the axe, trying to drive me away. I tried to tighten my arms tightly, fell to the ground with him, and rolled into a ball.

The thieves next to them did not expect such a situation in the end, and they didn't know what to do. They couldn't hand over the swords, guns, swords and halberds, for fear of hurting Zhou Tai, so they could only circle around two entangled people.

In such a stalemate, time passed little by little. In my feeling, it seemed that a long and long time had passed. My body had been inserted several times by Zhou Tai's axe handle. The wound that was originally tight under my ribs burst out again and blood flowed. My strong right arm also made Zhou Tai feel suffocated and desperate.

The river on the shore is called Xifengtang. Its two ends are connected to a large lake and a river that enters the sea. The reeds in late autumn are covered with golden pieces, like butterflies flying in the sky. There are fishing boats singing in the evening on the clear river surface. This is a beautiful scenery, but for no reason the scenery is destroyed by a group of onlookers on the shore.

Among this group of people, Zhou Taixiang and I fought on the street. During the tearing and fighting each other, all the gorgeous moves and beautiful attacks lost their effect. I pressed Zhou Tai tightly with my teeth, shoulders, arms, forehead, and knees. At the same time, the strong pincers on my right arm were a pair of iron pliers, jamming Zhou Tai's throat tightly.

Gradually, Zhou Tai was unable to hold the axe and could only beat me frantically with his hands. I only felt that all eighteen ribs had been broken, and the severe pain almost made me faint. But I could only grit my teeth and hold it up desperately, keep tightening my arms, so that Zhou Tai would not have any breathing space.

Maybe as long as I hold on for a while, my hands can touch the fruit of victory.

...

Suddenly, Zhou Tai shouted suddenly like thunder, and his tall body leaned towards me strongly, turning me, who had no strength under him, then abandoned the axe and fist, and a heavy punch as fast as thunder, hit my soft fist.

"Ah—." I screamed, and the stars suddenly turned into flying in the sky, and I felt that the strength in my body had been pulled away, and my right arm, which was pinched, also hanged down.

Zhou Tai still has the strength to fight back. Could it be that my previous feelings were all illusions? I endured the severe pain and wanted to stand up, but my arms couldn't use any effort.

"Yes, how can I beat you if I don't show any weakness!" Zhou Tai seemed to know what I was thinking, and he looked at me and said.

"Kill him, kill him!" Seeing that the leader won the victory, the thieves shouted loudly. At the same time, a few who were eager to make contributions rushed over and pushed me to the ground.

Zhou Tai had a gloomy face and picked up the two axes on the ground without saying a word, then said without looking back: "Let him go."

"But brother, this kid--." A thief Jiang didn't understand.

"I said let him go." Zhou Taihu stared at him, looking like he was trying to eat people. Seeing the boss getting angry, these guys who were disappointed quickly let me go. Others who were shouting at him saw something was wrong, and the cheers became weaker.

once--.

Second time—.

three times--.

...

I struggled again and again, and finally got myself up again. However, the pain on the left flank was like a needle. I guess several of the ribs had broken. I really wanted to lie on the ground and never get up again. However, I can't. Although I lost this competition, I can't lose my dignity.

Zhou Tai picked up his two axes and looked at me from cold to warm. When I finally raised my head, I saw a smile of praise from his extremely rough face. Even the eyes of the thieves watching were full of respect.

"I lost, I will kill you and kill you." I said.

Zhou Tai stared at me and said slowly: "You didn't lose, I lost, you can leave."

"Brother--." The thieves behind him couldn't help protesting when they saw this. If they let me go, they would spread the courageous Zhou Tai and defeated him by a small pawn, which would really damage Zhou Tai's reputation.

"Shut up!" Zhou Tai shouted sternly.

"I made an agreement with you to determine the outcome of the three-combination. The battle between you and me has long surpassed the three-combination Duoduo, so I was defeated." I heard that although Zhou Tai said this, he felt extremely unwilling to accept it in his tone.

I said, "If you don't accept it, we will fight again."

Zhou Tai was stunned. He didn't expect me to say this. He thought for a moment and said slowly: "It turns out that he is a hero who is better than bend. Unfortunately, if you fight again, you will never have any chance."

I know what Zhou Tai said is the fact. The battle just now has exhausted all my strength. The reason why I can restrain Zhou Tai is not that my martial arts are better than Zhou Tai, but that I have grasped Zhou Tai's weakness of underestimating the enemy. In addition, the tactics are used to achieve such a result. If I fight again, these conditions will no longer exist, and I will be invincible.

I admired it and said, "No. I was just a lucky fight just now. If you talk about martial arts, I am far inferior to you."

Seeing that I admitted in front of everyone, Zhou Tai said that it was not as proud as himself. When he touched his axe, he turned his face and smiled: "Good boy, I can't find a few people who can fight with me Zhou Tai in Jiangdong. What's even more rare is that there is a open-minded mind that wins are victory, and defeats are defeats. Such a person is a pity!"

I also smiled and said, "People say that Zhou Tai in Jiujiang is as brave as a tiger, and there is no one to stop him. If you have the talent of a general, you can commit yourself as a thief. Isn't that a pity!"

Zhou Tai laughed and said, "I have been fishing for a living since I was a child. I know that the officials supported by the people are good officials, and the thieves who disturb the people's rest are thieves. Yuan Shu is arrogant and extremely luxurious. The people of Huainan are hard-working and have no food to eat. Now I lead the villagers to fight against tyranny, and I follow the feat of Emperor Gaozu's killing of the white snake. What a pity."

I didn't expect Zhou Tai to say this. Although these words were vulgar, the truth was very clear. If Zhou Tai, a tyrant like Yuan Shu, surrendered to him, wouldn't it be a helping evildoer? It would be better to be a "thief" who is roaming the world and killing the rich and helping the poor.

Seeing that I was silent, Zhou Tai said loudly: "Hey, boy, what's the name?"

I calmed down and said, "I am Gao Chong from Wujun, and my name is Shaochong."

Zhou Tai laughed and said, "I didn't expect that such a hero would be born in the beautiful land of Jiangnan. The boy's temper is very suitable for my appetite. You and I might as well become brothers of different surnames. What if I don't like it?"

Unexpectedly, the fight would end up like this. I was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "I have this intention."

At this moment, Zhou Tai and I were beside the West Fengtang, and we took out wine bottles and incense burners from the boat to serve as a ceremony to sacrifice to heaven. Then we knelt on the ground and bowed three times, and sweared to the sky: I miss Zhou Tai, Gao Chong, although he has a different surname, he has become brothers, and he will work together to save the needy and help the poor; he will report to the country and the people. He does not seek to be born on the same day of the same month of the same year, but only wishes to die on the same day of the same month of the same year. Emperor Tianhoutu, who has truly learned this heart, has beentrayed his righteousness and forgot his kindness, and has killed the gods and men!

After the oath, I talked about my birthday with Zhou Tai. Zhou Tai was twenty-five years older than me and became my brother. With these twists and turns, the bandits and defeated soldiers who were originally on opposing sides also abandoned their past grudges, smiled and followed us to call each other brothers.
