Chapter 9: The Fierce Battle in the Dikeng

Seven or eight days passed quickly. During this period, Zhang Yun used the Kirin sword to perform the "Dream Sword Technique" without any barriers. He truly achieved mastery and mastery, and the sword was as one!

The Gongshu God Crossbow can also hit wherever it is pointed, and it always hits the target. Whether it is fired while running or jumping, or occasionally shooting at birds and insects flying in the air, he can hit the target accurately!

A few days ago, he accidentally discovered another extraordinary feature of the "Gongshu Divine Crossbow": the bowstring of the Divine Crossbow is so magical that it can absorb internal force. After the bowstring absorbs the internal force, fluorescence flows throughout the body, and several small electric wires on the surface

The threads keep wandering, and the power of the iron arrows shot increases dramatically, and it also has an explosive effect!

One person hugged a thick tree. Previously, a crossbow arrow shot at a range of 200 meters could only barely penetrate a small hole. If internal force was added, the tree trunk that was shot exploded directly, and there was a faint sound of thunder and lightning.

The whole tree fell to the ground, and he was so shocked that he couldn't help but be stunned! Zhang Yun immediately named this explosive arrow "Thunder Explosion Arrow."

However, after repeated research, some shortcomings of the "Thunderstorm Arrow" were discovered. For example, when injecting internal force into the bowstring, it was found that the consumption was very huge. At its peak, it could only barely shoot ten arrows, and the internal force in the body was exhausted.

Moreover, the bowstring cannot store internal force for a long time. It must be fired within ten seconds after being input. The internal force attached to the bowstring will dissipate on its own after the time expires, and the iron arrows fired after that will no longer have the thunderstorm effect.

Zhang Yun smiled bitterly and sighed: "It seems that the 'Thunderstorm Arrow' can only be used as a trump card!"

Tonight is the time for the "Purple Flame Orchid" to mature. During lunch, Zhang Yun and his grandfather mentioned that they wanted to go into the mountains for a while. The two of them had already become accustomed to it and agreed casually.

When he returned to the wooden house, he considered that this operation was full of dangers, and it would be an understatement to say that it was more dangerous than bad!

Just in case something special happened, after careful consideration, I still left a letter to my grandfather: He said that he would go to the mountains to practice internal energy this time, for as little as six months or as long as a year. If he told me face to face that he would not agree, he would stay.

I hope you won't worry about the next letter... Then I fold it and press it under the inkstone.

I looked at the time and thought: "Let's restore our mental and physical strength to the best condition first. A fierce battle at night is probably inevitable!" So I closed my eyes and sat up to meditate.

In the evening, he began to pack his luggage: first he put on a set of tight-fitting clothes and hid a delicate jade box close to his body;

Then he took out a vest sewn from deerskin, which Aunt Li made within a few days according to his request. There was a large pocket on the back of the vest, which looked like a large mountaineering bag.

!

Zhang Yun first disassembled the "Gongshu Divine Crossbow" into four pieces and put them in his pocket, then took out a bundle of ropes and a dozen small wooden stakes from the corner and put them in too;

There were a circle of small pockets around the waistcoat, and he counted exactly eleven small pockets, which were the quivers he was going to use to place iron arrows. There was also a close-fitting leather sheath in the slant, and he inserted the "Kilin Sword" into it.

After checking that it was very tight, I put the vest on, fastened the buttons, and walked out.

It was dinner time now, and there were not many people in the streets. He quickly walked to Tang San's blacksmith shop, and when he entered the door, he saw that everyone was still working in full swing.

Tang San raised his head and saw that it was him who was coming. He didn't stop what he was doing. He turned around and said, "Xiaoyun, please sit down for a while. It will be finished soon."

Zhang Yun waited for about half a stick of incense, and finally saw everyone packing their tools and stopped.

Tang San wiped his sweat first, and then said with a smile: "Xiaoyun, come over and inspect the goods!"

Zhang Yun quickly walked to the stove and saw a row of dark iron arrows lying flat on the iron shelf. He quickly reached out and picked up one and compared it carefully with the sample, and then changed a few more and observed...

After a while, he said excitedly to Tang San next to him: "Uncle Tang San, your craftsmanship is really amazing. I can't see any difference from the one I got!"

Tang San smiled and said: "As long as you are satisfied, from my perspective, the only difference is that the iron arrows I made have higher hardness but less flexibility. As the saying goes: if it is hard, it will break easily. This is the truth.

It won’t affect your use.”

Zhang Yun saw several young people helping to refine iron arrows. They all stopped and came over. He clasped his fists and said, "Uncle Tang, thank you for your hard work. When I am done with this period of time, I will come back and treat you to meat and rice wine."

!”

Everyone also saw that he was fully armed and knew that he was going into the mountain, so they didn't say anything more and refused Tang San's invitation to stay and went home to eat.

With the help of Tang San, Zhang Yun divided the iron arrows into nine handfuls and put them into eleven quivers. When they were all filled, there were ninety-nine in total. When he saw that there were six more, even his original quivers

Some of them had exactly nine arrows, so I quickly took out the arrow box and loaded them all in.

After thanking Tang San again, he walked out of the door, lifted his body and flew towards the direction of the Emperor's Pit.

Soon I came to the edge of the sinkhole, checked and found that the rope was intact. I took a deep breath and fell down the rope. I didn't find anything strange on the way, and I landed at the end of the rope in one breath.

He grabbed the wooden stake and stopped, took out the rope from behind, connected it with the end of the original rope, fixed it on the wooden stake, and continued to fall...

Zhang Yun first used ropes to connect each wooden stake that was nailed into the gap last time. Then he took out a few small wooden stakes and moved them downward against the stone wall.

After descending for more than 100 meters, I stopped, fixed the rope, and collected the remaining 200 meters of rope.

I found a hole with a wide view nearby. After checking that there was no danger, I looked intently at the platform below:

At this time, the "flame" on the Purple Flame Orchid flower seemed to be rising. It was more than twice as big as the one seen that day. The fragrance that reached the tip of the nose was even stronger. It is estimated that it should be mature within two hours.

When I looked closely at the surrounding monsters, I really didn't expect it to be the "Golden-Eyed Armored Ant"! When I thought about how powerful this creature's attack method was, I couldn't help but take a breath of air!

There are already thirty-six armored ants on the platform below. I wonder if there are any other "reserve troops" besides the ant king with purple-gold eyes in the cave? If there are dozens more suddenly, it will be troublesome!

I saw the "gold-eyed iron-clad ants" facing off against two centipedes that were about ten feet long and had flaming red bodies. On the mountain wall next to them, pairs of greedy eyes flashed through the holes from time to time!

I did a visual inspection first and found that the hole was just above the platform. I had a plan in my mind. I took out the remaining two hundred meters of rope and tied one end of the rope to a large protruding rock next to the hole. After trying it, it was very good.

stable.

Zhang Yun thought in his heart: "Let them fight in the nest first, I'd better recover my internal strength first, and then take advantage of the situation to rob them!" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.

So I calmed down, meditated to regain my inner strength, and breathed in the refreshing fragrance from time to time.

It only took half an hour for him to recover his little internal strength.

Then he took off his vest and brought it in front of him, quickly assembled the Gongshu Godly Crossbow, pressed the handle to cock it and put it beside him, then he stuck his head out and looked towards the platform below.

At this moment, below, one of the two centipedes that originally fought with the ant colony has been cut into pieces, and the other one is also scarred;

Several small holes were corroded by the venom on the dark iron armor of several armored ants that besieged the centipede, but they were not in danger for the moment;

There are two battle groups next to it:

Three giant lizard-like alien beasts with red eyes and bumpy skin also joined the battle;

There are five or six fist-sized black bees surrounding the ant colony, looking for a place to insert the poison needle. The platform is covered with the corpses of black bees. It looks like there are hundreds of them, and there are several more.

The armored ant that fainted on the ground must have been poisoned by bee venom.

Seeing this miserable scene, one can imagine how tragic the battle just now was!

When Zhang Yun saw this, he thought: "There is no need to pay attention to benevolence, justice and morality when dealing with these strange beasts. Take advantage of their illness and kill them!"

Thinking of this, he reached out and took the Gongshu Godly Crossbow from the side. To be on the safe side, he chose to shoot into the eye.

Just listen to "Puff puff puff..." nine consecutive sounds. The eight "gold-eyed armored ants" and a giant lizard below were shot with arrows in their eye holes one after another. The iron armored ant's head was directly pinned to the ground by the iron arrow.

He kicked his calf a few times and died!

The giant lizard's vitality was very tenacious. Under the severe pain, it swung its long tail and first sent two armored ants flying away. Then it rushed forward and bit off the head of an armored ant alive, and then it lost its brain.

He passed out from too much leakage.

Zhang Yun finished shooting a round of crossbow arrows, and hurriedly retracted his head to reload and wind up. After waiting for a while, he poked his head out again. In this dark environment, who knows if there are any strange animals with good eyesight. He didn't want to be exposed to the gun in advance.

He became the target of public criticism!

He fired two more rounds of crossbow arrows, and used two thunderstorm arrows in the middle, all of which were rewarded to two huge lizards. The two alien beasts simultaneously suffered brain fractures and died!

Five or six giant peaks were also taken care of by him first. He did not want to face these aerial killers by himself! In addition, he also killed ten armored ants by the way.

However, Zhang Yun's series of sneak attacks were noticed by a Jiuyou gopher hiding in the dark, and he quickly turned around and ran deeper into the cave...

At this time, there was a mess on the platform below. The sudden change made the rather intelligent armored ants frightened. The saw teeth on their legs kept rubbing against the ground, making a harsh sound!

Suddenly a pair of purple-gold eyes poked out from the hidden entrance of the cave, looked at the mountain wall, and then issued an order in a squeaky voice. The ants swarmed up first to kill the dying centipede, and then quickly headed towards the entrance of the cave.

Retreat.

Zhang Yun saw this scene and hurriedly took out his crossbow arrows. An internal force was input into the bowstring. He aimed at the protruding head of the ant king. He raised his hand and shot out an arrow. He thought about catching the thief first, but he heard "touch" below.

"A sound exploded.

Looking closely, it turned out that in the haste, the target was not hit. The ant king's head fell to the ground and exploded. The ant king also took advantage of the situation and hid back in the hole.

Zhang Yun secretly said it was a pity: "It is said that opportunities cannot be lost and never come back. How can it not be depressing to miss such a great opportunity?"

Although he was thinking this in his mind, he did not stop and shot the remaining eight iron arrows in succession. With the eight explosions below, eight more armored ants were killed by the arrows, and the remaining six or seven disappeared in a flash.

ran back to the cave.

Zhang Yun saw that there were no armored ants exposed to his sight below. He first recovered part of the lost internal strength, and then began to use the Gongshu Divine Crossbow to clean up the strange beasts that appeared on the stone wall, as well as the pairs that flashed in the darkness.

Eye.

He fired four rounds of crossbows in succession, killing or injuring more than 30 strange beasts hiding in the dark. Some of them found something bad and quickly hid themselves. After searching around and finding nothing, he smiled bitterly and turned his head.

Retract into the hole and continue to meditate.

At this time, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became quiet, like the calm before the storm!

Zhang Yun, who was meditating, suddenly noticed that the aroma in the air was several times stronger, and then there was a commotion on the surrounding stone walls. He quickly stood up and stretched out his head to look at the platform below.

The purple flame of "Purple Flame Orchid" suddenly seemed to be boiling, and a deep purple flame more than a foot long erupted, illuminating a space several meters square around it!

The strange beasts hidden in the stone wall could no longer resist the temptation of the scent, and crawled out of their hiding places one after another, rushing towards the platform. Seven or eight golden-eyed armored ants also rushed out of the hidden hole next to the platform below.

Zhang Yun saw that he was extremely anxious in his heart, but he did not panic. He picked up the Gongshu Godly Crossbow and fired a burst, killing the few armored ants that rushed to the front, and then fired at the surrounding stone walls. He saw something strange.

The corpses of the beasts fell one by one into the pit of the emperor, and in the blink of an eye, all the dozens of remaining iron arrows he had were used up!

But there were still some strange beasts crawling towards the "Purple Flame Orchid" below. Zhang Yun hurriedly placed the divine crossbow in the hole, stretched out his hand to draw out the Kirin sword, gritted his teeth and said to himself: "I can't wait any longer, if Zi Yan

If there is any loss to Youlan, everything done today will be in vain!"

Thinking of this, he bit the sword in his mouth, put down the rope, held it with both hands, and let it fall down like a meteor.

At an altitude of more than 20 meters from the platform, Zhang Yun suddenly let go of the rope, made a perfect somersault, and landed steadily next to Ziyan Orchid. He grabbed the elixir with one hand and took out a medicine from his arms with the other hand.

The delicate jade box contained the collected purple flowers and quickly put them back in his arms.

Then he raised his head and glanced at the strange beasts swarming around him with lightning-like eyes. A playful smile appeared on his face. He held the knife in one hand and felt a surge of pride in his heart!

He raised his head and let out a long roar, and the sound shook the valley! It's true that one man can block the way and no one can open it!
