Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, wearing torn and wet clothes, were flying through the mountains and fields, heading towards the guessed location of Pengcheng.
They are now penniless and have even lost their weapons, but their mood is surprisingly happy, and they feel happy that the sea and the sky are as wide as their own.
The two of them walked faster and faster.
Although breathing through the mouth and nose often feels unsustainable, the inner breath is running endlessly.
Koo Zhong rushed up to a huge boulder and jumped into the air towards the slope below. Unexpectedly, he lost his footing and rolled straight towards the grass at the bottom of the slope three or four feet down. This time, even his left sleeve was torn off by the branches, revealing his thick legs. arm.
Xu Ziling's childish heart was still intact, so he followed the same example and bumped into a ball with Kou Zhong without leaning to either side. He held his head and laughed, feeling extremely happy.
Kou Zhong suddenly said "Hey", pointed to the sky in the distance and said: "What is that?" Xu Ziling looked up and saw the red light flashing, and said in shock: "Fire!" Kou Zhong jumped up and said: " Let's go and take a look!" It was a burned-out town, with all the houses burned to the roof. There were corpses of people and animals inside and outside the town, some of which were only recognizable as charcoal.
In addition to the thick smoke rising everywhere and the burning houses, this originally lively and prosperous market town has turned into a dead ghostland, and the survivors should flee far away.
Some corpses were still stained with freshly dried blood, and the murderers were cruel to them regardless of gender, age or child. The two men's eyes filled with tears when they saw it, but their hearts were as cold as ice.
Was this done by Du Fuwei's men? Why did they behave like animals?
There were faint sounds of cars, horses and people in the west of the town, but they gradually faded away.
The two gritted their teeth and chased away.
After passing through a dense forest, the two of them were immediately stunned.
I saw that the official road to the north was full of Sui soldiers, all with disheveled armor and crooked flags. They were obviously retreating defeated troops. Falling at the back of the team were countless mule carts. Due to the load, they were separated from the main team. Like an old man struggling to support this journey.
When they were wondering whether this defeated army had committed this heinous atrocity, a burst of men's laughter suddenly came from the fallen mule cart, and then a naked woman was thrown out of the cart with blood sprinkled on her, "Peng!" It fell to the dirt road with a sound and remained motionless, apparently dead.
Sui Bing, who was driving the car, laughed and said: "Lao Zhang, you are really good, you are the third one." Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were furious, but they could still hold back and ran up.
The thief who had just raped and killed an innocent civilian girl in the car raised his head and suddenly saw the two of them. He drew out his saber and laughed loudly: "Is it your mother who did this for me?" The two of them were filled with indignation. , then he still remembered that he had no weapons, so he flew up and rushed towards the Sui soldiers.
The Sui soldier was startled when he saw that the two men were friends. He called on his accomplice in the car to turn around and help him, and at the same time he swept out his sword, hoping to prevent the two men from rushing into the car.
Kou Zhong was the first to bear the brunt, and then he realized that he had no blocking weapon in his hand. Without thinking, he took a deep breath of energy and for the first time in his life, he jumped up again, avoiding the enemy's sword by a hair's breadth, and turned over. After a barely qualified somersault, he reached the sky above the enemy's rear.
The Sui soldier driving in front picked up his spear and stabbed him in the chest.
Just at this time, Kou Zhonggang was shocked to realize the breakthrough he had made in the air. He was shocked and took a deep breath of "acquired Qi". His true Qi turned turbid and he landed heavily on the grain cargo behind the mule cart, avoiding the opponent. of spear.
At this time, Xu Ziling's front foot was on the edge of the car rail. When he saw the big knife coming towards him, he hurriedly used his front foot as the axis and kicked sideways with lightning with his left foot, hitting the opponent's left ear.
The energy comes out through the feet.
The Sui soldier who committed the bestial act didn't even have time to cry out in agony. His neck was broken, he fell off the carriage and died on the spot.
This was Xu Ziling's first time killing someone. He was so shocked that his true energy dispersed and he rolled into the cargo pile.
Kou Zhonggang reached up and grabbed hold of the opponent's spear, and with a strong pull, the Sui soldiers who were driving lost their footing and fell between the throne and the trailer, letting out a shrill scream.
The Sui soldiers in front noticed something was wrong, and more than ten cavalry turned around and came over to kill them.
Kou Zhong shouted: "Run away quickly!" The two of them jumped out of the carriage and scurried into the dense forest beside the road, disappearing without a trace.
The two of them walked more than ten miles in one breath before sitting down to rest.
Xu Ziling sighed and said, "I just killed someone! How could I have thought that I would kick him to death with just one kick." Kou Zhong put his arm around his shoulders and said, "It is not a pity to die for such a murderer, arsonist, and rapist.
Why should I feel uneasy?" After a pause, he continued:
"The dog soldiers in our Yangzhou City are not running rampant and oppressing good people, but I don't think they even killed people and set fires. No wonder so many people rebelled. Compared with the previous ones, my father's men are pretty good. Hey! Listen!
Did you hear any sounds?" Xu Ziling concentrated his mind and listened carefully. There were bursts of fighting sounds, faintly carried by the wind, and the area was very wide. It seemed that there were two large groups of people engaged in a life-and-death battle.
Thinking of the people who had just been massacred by the Sui soldiers, their blood suddenly boiled and they jumped up.
Kou Zhong said regretfully: "If I had known that the spear would have been brought, I would have gone to fight with those dog soldiers." Xu Ziling, filled with murderous intent, responded: "Let's go see the situation clearly first, we have to grab two
It's not easy to wield a knife. After all, what we lack most is fighting experience, so let's try the knife with these thieves who are worse than animals." The two of them just tried their skills in a small test, and they achieved great results, so they are full of confidence.
Kou Zhong nodded and said: "It seems that we have a lot of potential now, but we just don't have the opportunity to practice more, brother! Come on! Today is the first day of our journey across the rivers and lakes." The two of them screamed strangely, and the sound of killing was heard.
Running everywhere.
After swimming in a stream, they stretched out their body skills again, climbed over a hill, and went straight to the top of the slope. When they came to a mountain top, they suddenly saw a clear view in front of them.
I saw two groups of men and horses fighting fiercely on the plain below.
On one side were nearly 10,000 Sui soldiers, and on the other side were all big men in blue uniforms. The number was only a quarter of the Sui soldiers, but everyone had good martial arts skills and a complete formation. They rushed the Sui soldiers into pieces and it was difficult to use their talents.
The advantages of being numerous.
On a hill at the other end of the plain is obviously the command location of the Tsing Yi warriors. Several groups of people are stationed there, directing the movement of the Tsing Yi warriors with red, blue, and yellow lights.
This was the first time for the two of them to witness the tragic scene of a bloody battle between the two armies on the battlefield. They were stunned for a moment and forgot the purpose of coming here.
After a while, Kou Zhong came back to his senses, pointed to the sparse lights further away and said: "That may be another township. Maybe the Tsing Yi warriors are preventing the Sui soldiers from killing people and setting fire there. Is this the case?"
What's going on?" Xu Ziling let out a breath of relief and said, "If this is someone from Dad's side, we shouldn't interfere, otherwise wouldn't we be sending ourselves into the tiger's mouth?" Kou Zhong thought for a while and said, "Dad
Those of his men who were so neatly dressed seemed to be another rebel army.
Hey! Xiaoling! Are you timid?" Xu Ziling laughed, and at a nearby tree, he picked up two thick trunks, about ten feet long, and threw one to Kou Zhong, smiling: "Being a chivalrous and righteous person, getting promoted and making a fortune, this guy is the only one."
Kou Zhong removed the branches and leaves, carried them on his shoulders, and said politely: "Xu Zhuang, please go first!" Xu Ziling waved the tree trunk in the air a few times, and after mastering the intensity of the force, he sang: "The wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong man is gone. I must pay it back. Ha! I'm going!"
Amidst the laughter, the two of them ran down the hillside one after the other.
Just as he was about to kill on the plain, there was a sound of arrows, and a row of arrows shot out from the grass about ten feet in front.
The two of them had no experience in dealing with powerful arrows, and they did not expect that there would be an ambush. They rolled down to the ground in shock, and were in a state of confusion. The powerful arrows passed above them, and the danger was extremely high.
The two of them lost all their energy, crawled and rolled, and hid behind a pile of rocks and trees that stretched more than ten feet across, daring not to move.
Dense footwork rushed toward their hiding place, and suddenly there were Sui soldiers on both sides, each armed with a spear, and they were killing them. No one knew how many there were.
Only then did we know that the Tsing Yi warriors were trapped in a heavy siege, and the Sui soldiers who were intercepting them were to prevent reinforcements from the Tsing Yi warriors from coming to rescue them.
If the two of them had a choice, they would definitely run away and not pretend to be heroes, but at this moment they couldn't avoid it, so they jumped up, danced on the thick tree trunk, gathered all their strength, and swept and struck wildly.
Four spears were sent flying towards the thick tree trunk, and two of them were beaten with bloody heads and were thrown away.
At this time, there were enemies in front and behind, and torches were held high around the perimeter, illuminating everything bright red.
A group of axemen rushed into the inner perimeter and chopped down their thick tree trunks. The sound of killing was loud. When the two men were forced to retreat again for another round of offensive, only half of the thick tree trunks were left in their hands, but they were half the enemy. It can't be hurt.
Kou Zhong knew something was wrong and shouted: "Get on the rocks!" Xu Ziling tumbled and fell onto the pile of rocks behind him.
The enemy shouted and more than a dozen spears were thrown at them.
At this critical moment of life and death, the two of them calmed down, as if they could not hear any sound, and as if no sound could escape their spiritual ears.
The true energy in the body is running at a speed several times faster than usual. In comparison, the enemy's pursuit and spear throwing speed are slower.
They clearly grasped the angle and arrival time of each spear thrown at them. That feeling was definitely beyond their dreams.
Back to back, they carried up the four-foot-long tree trunk, swept it left and right, and blocked the way. Naturally, they used the best techniques to defend the enemy.
Seeing that the spears thrown by the enemy were ineffective, five or six swordsmen and axemen rushed towards the pile of rocks, hoping to start a close combat and kill them.
Kou Zhong ducked to avoid the sword, and the tree trunk struck one of the swordsmen's ankles. The man immediately fell to the ground. Kou Zhong snatched the opponent's sword and stabbed it into the belly of another Sui soldier who came to attack with an axe.
Xu Ziling also grabbed a long knife at this time, and suddenly became energetic and threw a thick tree trunk. A Sui soldier fell into a rock gap. He immediately threw himself at Kou Zhong and said: "Let's break in!" they shouted. Scream, leave the rocks, and rush into the enemy's formation.
Xu Ziling performed Li Jing's ten most powerful bloody battle moves on the battlefield. He strode out with a long sword and flashed with lightning. It seemed like an ordinary sword, but the attacking enemy could not avoid it, and his hand The spear seemed to have no blocking effect, allowing Xu Ziling to come in through a gap and hit the vital part of his chest. He fell backwards and died from a splatter of blood.
Kou Zhongyi turned his strong wrist, first pushed away the two spears that were stabbing him, and swept across with his sword. A Sui soldier was hit in the throat and fell to the ground miserably.
The two of them imagined that the ten bloody battle moves would be so powerful, and their courage would double.
It is indescribable to feel that although there are many enemies, they clearly know the strength and subtle changes of the enemy's offensive. They can even infer the distribution of peripheral strength from the enemy's pressure.
For a moment, they forgot about life and death. In this chaotic battlefield, they exerted their survival instinct. Although they faced hundreds of enemies and dazzling swords, guns, swords and spears, they were still fearless.
Naturally, the two of them cooperated seamlessly and moved quickly in the enemy formation. You attacked and I defended, I defended and you attacked.
If two people were asked to come up with this combined attack method in normal times, they might not be able to come up with it even if they think about it. However, at this moment, it was just like a wave of tide, and it was like a gift from God, without any trace of axe.
Xu Ziling swung his sword and slashed hard, and the true energy in his body was like the Yangtze River, flowing out with the sword. The opponent's sword holder didn't even have time to seal the attack. He watched his sword strike with lightning and fell to the ground in shock.
Kou Zhong's sword turned rapidly, and the endless energy in his body flew away with the sword. Although the opponent used all his strength to seal the fight with the sword, he could not cut off Kou Zhong's sword even half an inch, and he turned over and died with the sword.
After Fu Junma taught them the "Nine Mysteries", the two finally solved the "Nine Mysteries" in this extremely dangerous situation.
The "Secret of Immortality", which has nothing to do with martial arts, Li Jing's "Ten Styles of Bloody Fighting" and the "Bird Crossing Technique" of the Meiren'er Gang leader have been integrated and mastered, and each has created its own unique fighting method.
When they came to the spear formation, they felt that there were gaps everywhere. They easily pushed aside the enemy's spears and bullied them to get close. The enemy was left to be slaughtered. The force of their swords was doubled, killing the enemy until they were on their backs.
Since the enemy saw that there were only two of them, they only sent a small group of about a hundred Sui soldiers to intercept them. Now they were fighting from left to right, and seeing that their sword skills were very good, who didn't care about their lives, the Sui soldiers on the periphery scattered in all directions. Back away.
In fact, the two of them felt weak and timid. Upon seeing this, they sprinted with all their strength, broke out of the encirclement in an instant, and successfully escaped.
After running for more than a hundred feet, they arrived at a forest. The two of them fell into a ball, gasping for breath.
Kou Zhong smiled hard and said: "Ha! It worked! We can't be killed in such a big battle. Have you ever thought about it before?"
Xu Ziling inserted the knife into the soil, held the handle in his hand, and gasped: "The way we hit just now was too hard. In fact, in this situation, we can save more strength, so we don't have to be as weak as now." Kou Zhongdao "Are you injured? My back was slashed twice. Fortunately, I dodged quickly." Xu Ziling shook his head and said, "It's just that the spear blade scratched his pants on his left leg. It's nothing." Kou Zhong gasped for breath. He lost his temper and said: "Fight or not, those rebels don't seem to be what they seem!"
Xu Ziling sat up and said: "Of course we will fight. If the Sui army, which is not human, invades that village or market town, a terrible situation like the one just now will happen again." Kou Zhong got up overjoyed and said: "Now He's my good brother, let's be smarter this time and don't get intercepted halfway." The two jumped to the top of the tree, saw the situation clearly, made a big circle, and then ran towards the battlefield.
In this moment, they all felt that they had grown up and were no longer just two gangsters.
