Chapter 20 The scales are ready, let me bake them
It was surprisingly cold late at night in early spring, and the cold spring water flowed quietly in a small pool.
It is already the Chou season, and there are not many wild animals or birds of prey inhabiting the waterhole. The cold spring is the coldest time of the day at this time.
"Shasha..." I saw a thin figure walking out of the forest. It turned out to be a dark-skinned young man. The animal skin cloak on his body was gone, replaced by a bearskin cloak.
Judging from the dark red bloodstains on the edge of the cloak, the bearskin should have been on its original owner a few days ago.
The young man wearing a bear skin walked to the pool, dug a half-man-high straight knife into the soft soil beside him, squatted down, picked up a handful of spring water, and drank.
After about a cup of tea, the figure slowly stood up straight. The moonlight shone in the pool, reflecting the moon's shadow and illuminating the figure's face.
The young man has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a dark complexion. His face was stained with water from a swig just now. There is a trace of fatigue between his brows that cannot be dissipated, but the glimmer in the young man's eyes is much more restrained than a dozen days ago.
, this person is none other than Lin Fenghuo!
After resting for a while, the bearskin boy sat down next to a rock holding a knife. He was waiting for someone, his teammate.
For more than ten days, the boy has been exploring the maple forest alone, fighting dozens of times. Counting the violent bear he defeated on the first day, he killed a total of seven bears and twelve wolves during this period.
!
Such an astonishing number cannot be easily achieved even by a guard in iron armor.
While Lin Fenghuo was recalling the details of the previous battle, three rapid sounds of breaking through the air suddenly sounded behind him.
These three strong winds were coming with great speed. If in normal times, the swarthy young man had understood the power of the sword and swung the sword to attack at the critical moment, he might not have been unable to withstand this sneak attack.
It was just that Lin Fenghuo had just lost his mind in recalling and was exhausted physically and mentally from the successive battles. By the time he could react, it was already too late.
The boy sheathed his sword and blocked two of the strong winds that hit his head, chest and abdomen, but he could not avoid the one that hit his left leg.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" There were three muffled sounds. The first two muffled sounds were the sound of the blade striking the stone, and the last sound was the sound of the stone striking the bone.
Lin Fenghuo knelt on the ground with one leg bent, holding a knife in one hand and glaring at the forest to the left and rear.
"Shashasha..." Lin Lei held a knife in one hand and slowly walked out of the forest on the left rear.
He smiled and said: "It's rare that Master Lin can dodge two blows in this situation. Although you are not as early as me in entering the sword, but in terms of fighting talent, I am not as good as you. If we really fight head-on, who will win or lose?"
It’s still a dilemma.”
"Why are you alone, and Wang Bodang is alone? Since you have already succeeded, why do you need to make him timid again?" Lin Fenghuo asked through gritted teeth.
"Don't mention that idiot to me. Last time I let you off the hook, I didn't think he could achieve anything big." Lin Lei said disdainfully.
"I met Zhao Long at the Wolf Leader the day before yesterday. The two of them started fighting. I wanted to help, but he tried to dissuade me. I'm so stupid!"
"Haha, Brother Bodang, this is not your ambition. You are a villain who only knows how to sneak attacks and show off your power. If you want to defeat me, first ask about the knife in my hand." The dark-skinned young man stood up against the boulder behind him, holding a knife in one hand.
Pointing at Lin Lei, he grabbed the stone wall with one hand.
Linley ignored the young man's words and approached him step by step with a smile.
Just when he was still ten feet away from Lin Fenghuo, a person suddenly jumped out of the pool and threw an object at him. The figure smiled casually and said: "The scales are ready, let me bake them!"
The figure was extremely fast, borrowing strength from several exposed rocks in the shoal, and landed on the shore in two ups and downs.
When this person fell to the ground, it seemed as if he had a huge force, which made the gravel on the edge of the pool jump up.
Lin Lei naturally heard who it was from the voice, and said sullenly: "You brat, I came just in time. I wanted to teach you a lesson a long time ago, so I sent it to my door myself!"
The man who jumped out of the pool put his shirt and robe at his feet. He was wearing a dark iron chain vest and his arms were bare.
He ignored the other party and looked at Lin Fenghuo beside him. "Heizi, do you still have the knife?"
The person who came was none other than Yi Xifeng, who had been lurking in Tan Di.
"Mind your own business. If you hadn't stopped me, I would have killed this grandson a long time ago!" The dark-skinned boy slowly moved his injured left leg, and it seemed that there was no damage to his muscles or bones.
Lin Lei was annoyed by the fair boy's disregard. Without waiting for him to say anything, he jumped towards him with his knife in hand.
When Yi Xifeng saw him coming up with the sword, he also put away his contempt. Linley was already very strong, and if he offended him this time, he would definitely not show mercy.
The fair young man was worried that this fight would affect Lin Fenghuo, so he used a move called "Fengzhuanliu" to deflect the opponent's sword and take him away from the beach.
"Follow the wind and turn the willow" was learned by Yi Xifeng from the move "The strong wind knows the strong willow" in the Thirteen Swords of Chasing the Wind. It can also be said to be a simplified version of the move "The strong wind knows the strong willow".
Although the offensive nature of this move is reduced, it has many wonderful uses in controlling the battle situation, returning moves and switching moves.
As soon as Lin Lei started fighting with Yi Xifeng, he realized that most of the moves used by the opponent were entanglement, belting, coiling, etc.
After a few rounds, the fight was so frustrating that I couldn't help but roar and muster up my inner strength.
The inner strength that the unruly boy learned was the Qinglei Yuanqi Jue taught by his grandfather Lin Dongyue. This imperial strength method is also Lin Dongyue's family inheritance method, and it is the top five element level imperial strength method.
Lin Lei secretly channeled Qing Lei's vitality, and saw a green electric arc jumping and wrapping around the straight knife in his hand, which was very powerful.
Yi Xifeng did not dare to be careless here, and hurriedly used the wine breath control technique. A trace of white air slowly rose from the fair boy's body, and the water he had just brought out of the cold spring pool also evaporated.
Lin Lei saw that the other party could still lurk at the bottom of the cold spring for such a long time in such a cold night. Combined with the heat steaming from the body of the fair boy, he guessed that the technique Yi Xifeng practiced must be the Yanghuo lineage's strength-controlling technique.
.
Thinking of this, he stopped talking nonsense and raised his sword to slash at the opponent.
Yi Xifeng swung the hardwood sword, and the powerful sword energy spread all over the sword body. The sound of metal clanking kept coming from the open space by the water.
The two fought for more than ten rounds, with Yi Xifeng mostly defensive and not greedy for success.
Seeing the opponent's posture, Lin Lei naturally understood that if the fight continued like this without using special moves, there would be no winner even at dawn.
Lin Lei thought to himself: This untouchable was taken advantage of by him three years ago and I suffered a big loss. Today, I will take this opportunity to destroy him to relieve the hatred in my heart!
As if he had made up his mind, the young man's eyes flashed, he jumped back a few feet, and put the straight knife back into the scabbard at his waist. He pressed the scabbard with his left hand, held the handle of the knife with his right hand, and took half a step forward with his right foot.
The body is slightly bent forward.
Then he said seriously: "The unique skill Blue Thunder Three Shadows Slash!"
After saying that, Lin Lei turned into an afterimage and disappeared on the spot, heading straight towards Yi Xifeng.
The fair boy saw a trace of shock in his eyes when he saw the other person disappearing from the spot.
In an instant, he understood that this was Lin Lei's unique skill to suppress the situation at the bottom of the box.
Yi Xifeng waved the wooden sword in his hand forward and said softly: "Explode!"
I saw that the hardwood sword that had been struggling with the iron sword instantly shattered into four wooden stubbles with sharp fractures and shot forward.
Lin Lei came over and was a little surprised to see the broken wooden sword. His body speed slowed down slightly, and he gently swung the straight sword forward and chopped the four broken swords into pieces.
It was this cut that gave Yi Xifeng enough time to pull out the other wooden sword from his back.
The fair-skinned young man pointed his sword tip diagonally at the ground, met the opponent's afterimage, and slashed at him with his sword.
The sword was extremely smooth from drawing to releasing, and Yi Xifeng's speed instantly soared to the same level as the opponent. This move was the "Chasing Wind and Shadow Slash" among the Thirteen Swords of Chasing the Wind!
"Bang!" There was a loud sound of gold and iron clashing.
Yi Xifeng took a few steps back slightly, but Lin Lei flew back three to four feet, and finally stopped with his back pressed against a huge rock. There were more things going on, and he finally made up for what he owed last week.
