Chapter 242 [Sand and Dust] (Part 1)

After Wu Jingshan heard this, his head drooped in an instant. I can't believe how talented this guy is! It's a good thing he didn't propose to challenge him, otherwise he would be humiliating himself again. He pinched his goatee and sighed: "Eunuch Hu is indeed

Great talent, all of them are masterpieces handed down from generation to generation." This is true, Hu Xiaotian just picked it up at random, relying on his past hobby of ancient poetry, he randomly picked up a poem that shocked Wu Jingshan, the leader of Meishan School, and was dumbfounded.

This is by no means because Hu Xiaotian’s own talents and learning surpass Wu Jingshan. The reason why he is so good is because he stands on the shoulders of countless literary masters.

Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Xiaotian also thought of a poem, but I can only think of the first two sentences. As for the last two sentences, I can't think of a suitable sentence. Why don't I read it out and Mr. Wu can help me think about it?"

Wu Jingshan said with shame: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it."

Hu Xiaotian said: "Looking at it from the side, it looks like a ridge and a peak on the side, with different heights near and far... I can't find the right ones for the next two sentences, so I'd like to ask Mr. Wu for advice."

Wu Jingshan's forehead has begun to sweat. Viewed horizontally, there are ridges and peaks, with different heights near and far. It sounds simple and unpretentious, but this description is really accurate to the extreme. Hu Xiaotian, Hu Xiaotian, this person's talent and knowledge are really unfathomable.

Wu Jingshan thought about it, but he still couldn't find a suitable sentence. How did he know that the Xilinbi in question was Su Dongpo's painting of Lushan Mountain, and was plagiarized and used by Hu Xiaotian in Fenglin Gorge. It's not that Hu Xiaotian couldn't think of a suitable sentence, but that

This third sentence cannot be read directly, otherwise people will definitely ask, what kind of mountain is Lushan Mountain? Isn't this Fenglin Gorge?

The two of them were walking side by side, and while they were reciting poems and composing poems, there was a sudden commotion from behind, and then there was a loud rumbling sound. Hu Xiaotian turned around and looked. He saw a loess pillar that was three stories high suddenly downwards.

The last of the team was laden with food and baggage, and the two carriages had no time to escape. Together with the seven big men who were driving the carriages, they were completely buried under the pillar of earth. For a time, people were in a panic, and smoke and dust were everywhere.

Hu Xiaotian hurriedly turned his horse's head and approached Princess Anping's car, shouting: "Protect the princess!"

Princess Anping opened the corner of the car curtain. She saw that the outside was filled with dust and blocked the sun. Zhou Mo and Zhan Peng were guarding the left and right sides of the car. Hu Xiaotian had also returned to the car as soon as possible.

Princess Anping stretched out her arm from the car window and handed Hu Xiaotian a mask. This mask was specially made by Hu Xiaotian, so she never thought it would come in handy here.

Hu Xiaotian took the mask and put it on, and signaled Princess Anping to lower the car curtain to prevent dust from intruding.

The stirred up dust gradually dispersed. When everyone arrived at the scene of the accident, they saw that both carriages were crushed under the loess pillars, and the seven big men escorting the carriages and the four pack horses had been smashed into pulp. The scene was horrific.

Wenbo checked the surroundings and found no enemy ambush. It seemed that the loess pillar had collapsed due to the wind and rain eroding its bottom, and it happened to hit their carriage and horse by chance.

Hu Xiaotian raised his eyes and looked forward. He saw that they were surrounded by loess pillars like this. Many of them had been hollowed out by years of wind and rain and had the shape of mushrooms at the bottom. After seeing clearly the environment they were in, everyone's hearts changed.

I became nervous. Just now I was sighing and praising this strange landform, but now I feel the cruelty of nature.

The wind suddenly blew, and the biting north wind stirred up the loess on the ground. Wen Boyuan winked. A thin man wearing a gray samurai uniform next to him climbed up a loess pillar, like a spiritual ape.

, they had climbed to the top of the earth pillar in an instant. Standing on a high place and looking down, they could clearly see the environment around them.

Wen Boyuan saw the warrior making a gesture as if there was no one around him. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The collapse of the earth pillar just now was probably just an accident. As the saying goes, everything is preventable and natural disasters are unpredictable. He said solemnly: "Get through here as soon as possible.

, not allowed to stay.”

The seven dead men escorting the car were all personal followers of the Tang brothers. Looking at the blood-stained loess and the high mounds of earth, they were helpless and could only sigh.

Hu Xiaotian whispered to Zhou Mo: "There seems to be something wrong. I clearly got news that someone would set up an ambush here, but I didn't see a single figure."

Zhou Mo raised his head and looked up. Several warriors responsible for inquiring about the situation climbed up the surrounding loess pillars and paid attention to the surrounding movements from a high position. Even any disturbance would be caught by their eyes. Zhou Mo frowned.

He lowered his voice and said: "The terrain in this area is complex. These loess pillars form a natural maze. If someone sets up an ambush, this is the best place for an ambush."

Wen Boyuan had obviously realized this and said loudly: "Everyone, listen, speed up and get through here as soon as possible."

The north wind howls, carrying loess and ice chips, and slaps them on people's faces and bodies. The ice chips are melted into water by the temperature of the skin, and stick to the face with the yellow mud. The misty loess makes people almost unable to open their eyes.

eyes.

Even in Princess Anping's car, dust has entered it pervasively. Both Princess Anping and Tang Qingxuan have put on masks designed by Hu Xiaotian. Although the masks are inconspicuous, they can effectively prevent dust. Compared with

The veil is much more sophisticated in design and much more practical.

Wen Boyuan took the lead and rushed to the front of the team. Suddenly he reined in his horse and made a gesture to stop the march. As soon as the team stopped, they saw a huge mushroom-shaped loess pillar in front of them.

It fell towards the center of the road. After the huge loess pillar fell to the ground, the entire ground shook.

Although most of these well-trained warriors have experienced countless dangerous scenes, they can't help but be shocked when they see the scene in front of them. People are so pale and powerless in front of nature. If all these loess pillars fall down,

The casualties and losses caused are unimaginable.

Wu Jingshan, the Minister of Rites, was so frightened that he no longer had the interest in reciting poems and writing poems. He huddled in the carriage and covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief. He felt extremely regretful. If he had known this, he should have followed Hu Xiaotian's advice and taken the road.

Even if Wuxing County encounters chaos, it is much safer than this harsh environment.

Because Wen Boyuan had timely insight into the danger ahead, the collapse of the loess pillar did not cause any casualties. He slowly pulled out a long knife from his waist. The knife was four feet and three inches long, as bright as autumn water, and the back of the knife was about half thick.

The blade is three fingers wide, and gradually narrows towards the tip. The blade is as thin as a cicada's wing. This sword is called Hu Po, and it was a gift from his master, Sword Demon Feng Xingyun.

After the aftershocks on the ground passed, the flying dust still filled the void. All the warriors felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy and listened quietly to the movements around them. The warriors who were observing the situation on top of the loess pillars watched and made a gesture that was unparalleled around them.

A human gesture. But the road ahead has been completely blocked by collapsed loess pillars. If you want to move forward, you can only find another way out.

Zhan Peng turned over and dismounted, placed his left hand flat on the ground, and frowned tightly. After making sure that the aftershocks had passed, he lay on the ground and listened to the movement on the ground with his right ear.

Everything around him was frighteningly quiet. Even the nervous warrior's breathing became heavier. Two loess pillars fell down in succession. How could such a coincidence happen?

Zhan Peng straightened up, took out an arrow from his quiver with his backhand, aimed at the ground in front of him, and shot an arrow in. The tip of this arrow was very special, in a spiral shape, like a drill, and the tail feathers were arranged in the same way.

It is also different from normal feathered arrows. After being shot, the feathered arrow rotates at a high speed and can even penetrate two feet into the ground when it encounters soft soil. With a whooshing sound, the tail feather of the arrow disappears from the ground, leaving only a hole the size of a thumb.

.

After the arrow was shot, there was no reaction at all. Zhan Peng's tense nerves relaxed a little. At this moment, suddenly there was a loud bang! An explosion occurred from the front of the team, and a carriage was destroyed.

It exploded into the air. The packhorse neighed in fear and flipped its body in mid-air. Mud and dust spread everywhere. More than a dozen warriors who were not in a hurry to dodge were at the center of the explosion. They were blown to pieces and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.

After this explosion, it was like the earth was shattering, and the loess pillars fell down towards the team one by one, dividing their team into several sections. For a while, people fell onto their backs and their horses fell into chaos.

The bottom of Princess Anping's carriage suddenly cracked, and the carriage fell downwards. At the critical moment, Zhou Mo grabbed the reins of the horse, nailed his feet to the ground, and using his arms hard, he let out a loud roar that shook the sky, and pulled the carriage to a halt.

Stop the falling momentum. The coachman sitting in front was not so lucky. He fell off the tilted carriage unexpectedly and rolled into a crack in the ground.

Long Xiyue and Tang Qingxuan, who were in the car, screamed at the same time. Tang Qingxuan had practiced martial arts since childhood and had much better adaptability than Long Xiyue. She kicked the car door open and said loudly: "Sister, hurry up.

Jump on it!”

Hu Xiaotian got off his horse and immediately came to the side of the princess's car. He lay on the edge of the crack and stretched out his hand, shouting: "Princess, grab my hand!"

Long Xiyue's face turned pale. With Tang Qingxuan's help, she finally moved to the car door and stretched out her arm. Hu Xiaotian grabbed her slender hand and pulled Long Xiyue up from the tilted car.

.

Tang Qingxuan then wanted to jump out, but a sharp spear came straight up from the ground, forcing her to fall back into the carriage.

Phew! A feather arrow shot towards the cracked hole, followed by a scream. Zhan Peng, who arrived in time, killed the enemy lurking under the ground with an arrow.

A huge loess pillar behind Zhou Mo slowly fell down. Zhou Mo turned around and looked around, shouting: "Jump!"

Tang Qingxuan rushed to the door of the carriage again, stretched out her arms, and jumped out with all her strength. She grabbed the edge of the cracked soil layer with both hands, but the soil layer collapsed and broke because it could not withstand the falling force. Tang Qingxuan let out a cry

Jiao Hu, just when she was about to fall, Hu Xiaotian reached out in time, grabbed her arm, and pulled her up.
