Chapter 175: Encountering a masked killer is a common occurrence in the world
Is there an ambush?
Chu Qianqiu shouted, not to mention Huang Xiaoxiao. Even Wang Yuan and the grooms outside the carriage were stunned.
It wasn't until the poisonous arrows were fired from the divine machine crossbow that they could take the lead and react quickly.
"Protect Mr. Chu!"
"Protect the eldest lady!"
Wang Yuan immediately drew his sword and shouted with a ferocious face.
The first wave of poisonous arrows struck, in the shape of a "pin", coming from three directions.
There are three directions: front, left, and right. There are 5 poisonous arrows in each direction, for a total of 15 poisonous arrows.
If a wealthy person familiar with assassination sees this, he will know that this is a killing formation commonly used to attack nobles in the arena.
In the first wave of attacks, use the divine machine crossbow produced by the Tang family to attack from a long distance, kill the human shields around the nobles, and then get closer to kill them.
The Divine Machine Crossbow is a powerful weapon between a large ordnance and a hidden weapon. It can not only shoot 5 poisonous arrows in one go, but also gives the poisonous arrows [Armor Breaking] and [Penetration] when charging.
【Corrosion】Three kinds of true Qi characteristics.
Even if there are two ordinary soldiers wearing plate armor, this poisonous arrow can penetrate both of them after being fired, and still maintain a certain speed of flight.
This kind of arrows are extremely expensive, one thousand taels of silver, and the Tang family will never give you a discount, so this wave of arrows cost fifteen thousand taels of silver.
What's even more frightening is that the shelf life of this kind of poisonous arrow is shorter than that of the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle. It can only last for three months. If you don't have the courage to spend a lot of money, you are not qualified to use this kind of killing array.
Such a terrible expense is certainly worth its price.
Five poison arrows exceeded the speed of sound and struck through the air.
Wang Yuan's hair stood on end for a moment. Although Chu Qianqiu's reminder gave him time to react, he didn't have much choice now.
To block or not to block?
If I don't block it, Mr. Chu can directly punish me after the battle.
kill!
Wang Yuan made an important choice at this moment.
The secret of Haoran’s swordsmanship—Haoran’s righteousness!
When the first poisonous arrow came, Wang Yuan swung his sword with all his strength, using the sword energy that only an innate master could have, and directly knocked down the poisonous arrow.
But before he could recover, the second poisonous arrow was already approaching.
Is it necessary to work so hard for Mr. Chu?
When this thought flashed across his mind, he had no chance to make a choice.
No, at least get hurt.
Wang Yuan had an idea and first blocked the blood circulation in his left hand, and then blocked the second poisonous arrow with his left hand.
As expected, the poisonous arrow with [Armor Breaking] and [Penetrating] properties did not retain it at all. The arrow directly penetrated Wang Yuan's left hand and sank into the carriage.
Wang Yuan screamed, fell off the carriage, and at the same time bit into pieces of the all-purpose elixir prepared in his mouth, as well as the [Poison Elixir] specially prepared to fight poisonous arrows.
I'm sorry to Mr. Chu. Even after reviewing it, I have something to say.
Time to play dead.
Wang Yuan couldn't help but change his expression when he saw the wound corroding rapidly.
This poisonous arrow actually has [corrosive] properties. Fortunately, it was only the arm that was injured, otherwise it would be doomed.
[Corrosion Characteristics] is one of the most vicious characteristics for the internal organs of martial artists. Its effect is similar to that of pouring a bottle of aqua regia directly when cutting open the internal organs.
The army-breaking crossbow used by the Wang family to deal with Long Shiqi contained powerful [corrosion] properties, which melted his internal organs. If he had not had the [unyielding] property, he would have died long ago.
Wang Yuan quickly took another [Blood Ginseng Pill] to restore the corroded wound, then lay on the ground and used the Turtle Breath Technique to make himself look no different from death.
As the legitimate son of the Wang family, he is quite good at pretending to be dead.
…
At the same time, the Huang family's groom directly blocked the poisonous arrow with his body.
He is a dead soldier trained by the Huang family. When facing danger, he must use his body to act as a human shield to protect the safety of the eldest lady.
Hunyuan Gong - Hunyuan is strong!
If the six-door police officers at the grassroots level practice "Heng Lian Kung" and "Hunyuan Zhuang", then the martial arts grooms practice is "Hunyuan Kung" which is a higher level than them.
To the extent that he can also use his true energy to strengthen his whole body like a steel plate.
This is a skill that is more advanced than "Iron Cloth Shirt" but slightly lower than "Hunyuan Boy Kung Fu". Its best function is to act as a human shield to help the owner reduce damage.
Three hundred years ago, he could be used as a warrior to charge into battle, but in today's era when [Armor Breaking] characteristics are rampant, he can only be a qualified human shield.
The groom stood, wearing expensive snow silk clothes, and spread his body as much as possible to expand the blocking area to block the poisonous arrows.
puff!
The ruthless poison arrow penetrated his body, and its power was greatly reduced. When it hit the carriage, it became the end of a strong crossbow, unable to penetrate Lu's silk, and was nailed to the door of the carriage.
One, two, three!
Poisonous arrows came one after another and passed by.
The highly toxic and corrosive properties quickly took away the groom's life.
A master who is highly skilled in accumulating energy will not be much stronger than an ordinary person if he cannot dodge in front of a magical crossbow.
…
At the same time, the poisonous arrows from the left and right arrived at the same time. There was no human shield like the coachman. These special poisonous arrows penetrated the fine steel wrapped in the carriage frame, like bullets hitting butter.
I stabbed it in easily, and then there was no sound.
The carriage gradually stopped, and there seemed to be no other reaction from the carriage.
It seems that the owner sitting in the carriage is dead.
The killer who was lying in ambush dropped the crossbow directly on the ground after using it up. It was time for a hand-to-hand fight.
Three masked killers from three directions fought together, although they didn't understand why it was necessary to use three innate masked killers to deal with two apprentices from a small martial arts hall.
But they are all the most professional talents, talents who can do things beautifully.
Star Sword Technique - Defeat Tai Sui!
The three of them kept a certain distance from the carriage and took action boldly.
Three innate masters, three black-yellow sword energies, like the ominous Tai Sui Lord, were attacking the carriage from three directions.
There was a loud bang!
The entire carriage immediately fell apart. Even if the main body of the carriage was made of fine steel, it could not withstand this terrifying edge.
Because their sword energy contains the two characteristics of [sharpness] and [cutting], they are the two most applicable characteristics in the way of swordsmanship.
It is very helpful for them to cut the enemy into pieces.
At the moment when the sword energy cut through the carriage, two figures sprang out from the bottom of the carriage and ran towards the rear.
Chu Qianqiu held Huang Xiaoxiao in one hand and put the other hand on the ground, like a gecko being attacked. In a short time, he ran a long way away.
"Chase!"
The three masked killers did not expect that each other would be attached to the bottom of the carriage, and fled away in an instant, then roared in anger.
