Zhang Ping's arrows were fast, but the burly barbarian's movements were faster. He raised his hand sharply and firmly caught the arrows shot by Zhang Ping.
You must know that the distance between the two sides is not far, and Zhang Ping is good at archery. It is simply incredible that the other party can catch Zhang Ping's arrow at such a close distance.
Seeing this, Zhang Ping's expression changed. He then drew out another arrow and shot another arrow at the burly barbarian.
The burly barbarian abandoned Liu Xiu and rushed towards Zhang Ping. As he ran, he raised the hammer slightly, and there was a clang. The arrow that was meant to shoot at his chest was blocked by the hammer head. The burly barbarian took three steps and
He took two steps, got in front of Zhang Ping, and swept out with a hammer.
Zhang Ping reacted quickly. He immediately fell to the ground and rolled sideways. Click! The hammer head swept out and hit the body of the carriage, smashing the wall on one side of the carriage to pieces. Ye Qingqiu, who was sitting inside, couldn't bear it.
He couldn't help but scream in surprise. At the same time, the luggage and dry food placed in the car rolled out and fell all over the floor.
The burly barbarian refused to give up, turned around, and swung his hammer at Zhang Ping again.
No matter how fast Zhang Ping's movement was, he couldn't move faster than his hammer. Seeing that Zhang Ping was about to be hit by the opponent's hammer, suddenly, the burly barbarian felt an evil wind behind him.
Before he could hurt Zhang Ping again, he dodged to the side, and the blade of the sword passed under his left rib, almost making a gash.
He turned around and saw that it was Liu Xiu who was standing behind him and attacking him. The burly barbarian was filled with anger. He roared and hit Liu Xiu again with his hammer.
Liu Xiuyun exerted all his strength, bent his waist, and drew an arc on the ground. While dodging the opponent's hammer, the sword edge also passed through the outside of the burly barbarian's thigh.
Suddenly, a long bloody gash appeared on the outside of the burly barbarian's thigh, and blood flowed out.
The burly barbarian did not pull back the hammer, but instead used a clever move to thrust the tail of the hammer backwards, straight into Liu Xiu's chest.
The hammer tail came out from under his armpit, it was fast and concealed. Liu Xiu, who was behind him, really didn't expect that the opponent would use such a strange move. He was unprepared and was hit by the hammer tail.
Bang!
Liu Xiu's figure flew out and fell to the ground. He felt his chest was tight, his throat was licking, and a mouthful of old blood welled up. He gritted his teeth and swallowed the mouthful of blood.
The burly barbarian lowered his head to look at the scratch on his thigh, then looked at Liu Xiu lying on the ground. He roared and walked towards Liu Xiu with the hammer in hand.
Chen Ping on the side shot another arrow, but it was blocked by the burly barbarian again. With no time to shoot another arrow, Chen Ping drew out his dagger and rushed towards the burly barbarian.
Before he could get close, the burly barbarian swept towards him with a hammer. Chen Ping bent down and dodged downwards. The hammer was carried on his back with a strong howling wind, and it swept past him.
Before he could straighten up, the burly barbarian kicked him on the shoulder, causing Chen Ping to roll backwards far away.
The burly barbarian ignored him, and when he got close to Liu Xiu, he held the handle of the hammer with both hands, exerted all his strength, and was about to smash the hammer down.
At this time, a large package flew from the side and hit his shoulder. The rope buckle of the package was loosened, and the clothes inside immediately fell out, covering the burly barbarian's body.
He roared angrily and tore off the clothes hanging on his body. He turned around and saw that it was Ye Qingqiu standing on the carriage and throwing a package at him.
The burly barbarian ignored it and still hit Liu Xiu with the hammer.
Just when the hammer was about to hit Liu Xiu's head, the latter's body suddenly rolled sideways. Bang, the hammer hit the ground hard, and even Ye Qingqiu, who was standing on the carriage, felt the car body shake.
At the same time that the burly barbarian retracted his hammer, Liu Xiu jumped up from the ground like a carp, and stabbed out with his sword, straight into the opponent's lower abdomen.
The burly barbarian obviously didn't expect Liu Xiu to still have the energy to counterattack him, so he instinctively took a step back.
While he was retreating, Liu Xiu also changed his move. He switched from stabbing to slashing, and the sword edge swept across the burly barbarian's belly, cutting a half-foot-long gash in his belly. If the wound was deeper,
, and disembowelled him.
The burly barbarian roared in pain, and swung the hammer at Liu Xiu again. Liu Xiu used his speed to the extreme, turned around, and passed by the side of the burly barbarian, and the sword edge opened another slice on his shoulder.
The burly barbarian no longer sheathed his hammer, and simply stretched out his big hand to grab Liu Xiu's collar. The latter turned around again, and the sword edge opened a slit in the burly barbarian's back.
At this time, Liu Xiu had already changed his tactics. He no longer thought of hitting the enemy with all his strength and killing the enemy with one blow. Instead, he used the flexibility of his body skills to start a free fight with the opponent.
Every time he draws his sword, it is fast and light. The force is not very strong. It just cuts a hole in the opponent's body. It is only a small taste. However, in this way, the time for him to retract the sword is shorter, and the speed of his movement is also shortened.
become faster.
If Long Yuan saw such a scene, he would definitely be surprised by Liu Xiu's fighting style.
The essence of the martial arts he taught Liu Xiu was to kill the enemy with one strike. However, Liu Xiu's current style of fighting was to sacrifice strength and increase his speed, making his body erratic so that the opponent could not catch him at all.
own traces.
Martial arts and moves are dead, only people are alive. To deal with different enemies, use different tactics and use the most suitable fighting method to kill the enemy. This is the talent of the martial arts practitioner, and it is also determined by the practitioner's understanding.
.
At this time, Liu Xiu's tactics were undoubtedly successful. He minimized the opponent's advantage of being powerful, while maximizing the opponent's disadvantages of being big, round, and bulky.
Under Liu Xiu's quick attack like a dragonfly tapping water, it didn't last long. The burly barbarian's chest, back, and even arms and thighs were all covered with bloody gashes. Each bloody gash was not deep and neither hurt muscles nor bones.
But the blood flowing out was extremely scary. At first glance, the burly barbarian looked like a bloody man.
With the massive loss of blood, the burly barbarian's brute strength was also much weaker than before. The big hammer that was originally as light as nothing in his hand now became extremely heavy.
At this time, other barbarian soldiers on the battlefield also saw the burly barbarian hanging on a thread. People roared and rushed towards Liu Xiu with all their lives.
Long Yuan, Wang Ping, Li Tong and others all used their best strength to resist the attack of the barbarians.
Speaking of Liu Xiu, he felt that the time was almost up. When the burly barbarian hit him with a hammer again, he quickly turned around and dodged to the side of the burly barbarian. At the same time, he stabbed out with a sword.
This sword penetrated under the burly barbarian's left rib, and the blade protruded from his right rib, piercing the burly barbarian's body sideways.
But what Liu Xiu didn't expect was that this fatal sword failed to kill the opponent.
The burly barbarian let out a cry, threw away the hammer, and punched Liu Xiu on the forehead. The latter felt his head buzzing, and a cloud of stars appeared in front of his eyes. He staggered back, and along the way, inserted
The long sword from the opponent's body was also pulled out.
As the long sword was pulled out, a blood arrow was also sprayed out. The burly barbarian roared again, he opened his hands and strangled Liu Xiu's neck. Liu Xiu didn't even think about it, and stabbed forward with another sword.
go out.
This time his sword penetrated directly through the chest of the burly barbarian.
The burly barbarian couldn't hold on any longer, his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground. However, his hands were still firmly on Liu Xiu's neck and he pulled him to the ground.
Liu Xiu roared, exerted all his strength, and raised the sword from bottom to top.
Click!
The burly barbarian grabbed Liu Xiu's neck with his two hands, which were as short as the wrist. Liu Xiu took the opportunity to stand up and violently pulled off the severed hand that was still pinching his neck.
He looked at the burly barbarian who was kneeling on the ground, his chest still rising and falling. He held the sword in both hands and struck out horizontally.
Click! There was another crisp sound, this time the burly barbarian's neck was cut off, and the huge head rolled off his shoulders.
This situation caused the melee in the battlefield to become silent instantly. The barbarians who went crazy and rushed towards Liu Xiu opened their eyes wide and looked at the headless corpse kneeling on the ground in disbelief.
.
Liu Xiu gasped, bent down, and grabbed the severed head that had fallen to the ground. Then he held the severed head high, pointed his long sword at the barbarians on the opposite side, and shouted loudly: "Obviously committing a crime against a strong man."
Even if he is far away, he will be killed!"
Liu Xiu, who was already red-eyed about the killing, shouted out a famous saying by the famous Western Han Dynasty general Chen Tang: It is better to hang your head in the barbarian mansion on the street to show that you are thousands of miles away. Anyone who openly offends a strong Han will be punished no matter how far away!
Wherever the sword points, the energy penetrates the rainbow!
When the barbarian soldiers on the opposite side saw Liu Xiu holding a human head in one hand and a sword in the other, their expressions changed greatly and they subconsciously took a few steps back.
The morale of Long Yuan, Zhang Ping, Li Tong and others present was also greatly boosted. People shouted in unison: "Anyone who openly offends a strong man will be killed no matter how far away!"
Immediately afterwards, everyone raised their weapons and took the initiative to attack the barbarians on the opposite side.
The barbarian soldiers who had lost their leader no longer had any energy, fighting spirit, or desire to fight, so they turned around and ran away.
Liu Xiu only took two steps forward, but his body suddenly swayed and he hurriedly hit the ground with his long sword. There was a pop and blood spurted out from his mouth.
He had been holding back this mouthful of blood just now, but now that the barbarian soldiers had fled, he finally spit it out.
When Long Yuan was about to chase the barbarian soldiers, Chen Ping and others saw this and ran over, gathered around Liu Xiu, and asked: "Uncle Wen, what's wrong with you? Where are you injured?"
Liu Xiu slowly shook his head, waved his hand to everyone, and spat out the old blood. He felt that his chest felt much better, but along with it, the strength in his body seemed to be drained instantly.
He couldn't stand and fell limply towards Long Yuan.
Long Yuan hurriedly caught Liu Xiu, looked at Liu Xiu's face, and then looked at his body. There were no obvious external injuries. He speculated: "Uncle Wen may have suffered internal injuries."
As he spoke, he took out a small medicine bottle from his arms, poured out two pills, and stuffed them into Liu Xiu's mouth.
Long Yuan's life experience is closer to that of a knight-errant, and he has many kinds of elixirs.
Everyone helped Liu Xiu to the carriage and asked him to sit on the carriage. Ye Qingqiu had tears in his eyes and asked in a trembling voice: "How is Mr. Liu doing?"
Before anyone else could speak, Liu Xiu opened her eyes, smiled at Ye Qingqiu, and said softly: "Miss Ye, I'm fine. Thank you very much just now."
When he was knocked down by the barbarian just now, thanks to Ye Qingqiu who threw packages at the opponent risklessly and slowed down the opponent, he had the opportunity to relax and think of tactics to defeat the enemy.
Ye Qingqiu looked at Liu Xiu with concern and said with choked sobs: "It'll be fine if Mr. Liu is fine, it'll be fine if Mr. Liu is fine..."
At this time, the people who had just been scared away by the barbarians came back one after another. People looked greedily at the dry food scattered on the ground.
Seeing this, Li Tong winked at the people around him. Everyone understood and picked up the dry food scattered on the ground, rewrapped it and put it on the carriage.
"Just now... they seemed to have shouted, 'Anyone who openly offends a strong man will be punished no matter how far away'!"
"Yes, they shouted it, they all shouted it!"
"Now is the new dynasty. If you still call the previous dynasty, it is treason!"
"Yes, that's treason!"
"Let's arrest them and send them to prison!" "Yes, yes, yes, arrest them and send them to prison!"
The people were shouting and crowding around the carriage step by step. However, what people were looking at was not Liu Xiu and the others, but the parcels containing dry food.
Listening to the people's words and looking at their actions, Li Tong suddenly felt a sore nose and almost cried. Who on earth are he fighting for?!
