Although Xiangling is smart and witty, she did not expect such a change. She originally expected that when Tuoba Zhanyue and Sun Wu disagreed, everyone would fall out and take action.26nbsp;
If that kind of scene happens, what Xiang Ling wants to see most is the limit of Xiao Shang's ability, because so far, she has never seen Xiao Shang participating in a battle. If the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Shield is the limit of defense,
So what will be Xiaoshang's attack method? This is very intriguing.
The main fighting force of the Iron Blood Cavalry is the leader Tuoba Zhanyue, Beigong Luohan is the commander on the left, and Yuwen Guihe is the commander on the right. When they fight head-on, Xiangling thinks that he can only fight one person. If it becomes one against two, then what will happen?
There is no doubt that they will be defeated. Fortunately, a surprise attack and escape are not the same as frontal combat. In addition, during a fight, you can send out a 'fire' signal to contact helpers. Although you may not be able to escape unscathed, it should not be a problem to escape successfully.
But how did things end up like this?
"well………"
Xiangling held a small wooden basin, sighed softly, and looked at the top of the mountain at the end of the steps. In order to take out the relics on the night of the full moon, Yuwen Guihe placed instruments on the top of the mountain, arranged them in formation, and began to store all the relics.
The required energy, as for Wenwen, who is currently the relic container, is imprisoned on the top of the mountain.
Beigong Arhat personally guarded the top of the mountain to prevent anyone from taking away the relics. Therefore, Sun Wu confronted him and had to constantly try to break through in these five days. If he defeated Beigong Arhat, he would be qualified to fight the Iron-Blooded Cavalry again.
Negotiate terms, otherwise... you'll just be waiting to receive the disemboweled body of a girl.
Because of this, starting from this morning, the young man who had finished adjusting his breath began to break through the level. Although his fighting spirit was strong, there were no unexpected changes in the results.
(Beigong Sword Demon is one of the best masters in the outside world. He used all his energy to unleash his unique moves. Even I can't beat him. This young master only has five days left. How can he possibly turn things around?)
Sun Wu's qualifications and hard work are both excellent talents. Coupled with the guidance of many masters behind him, after years of tempering, let alone being better than Beigong Luohan, even being comparable to One Emperor and Three Sects. It is not surprising, but at least that is
It will be ten, or even fifteen years later. At present, he can't even do it with a random sword from Beigong Arhat.
Carrying a wooden basin filled with water, Xiangling climbed the stairs slowly up the mountain, preparing to bring the towel to the young man who was struggling. His eyes caught a glimpse of the corner next to him. Xiao Shang was sitting with several iron-blooded knights, as if
We had a great time chatting.
Identity is Sun Wu's sister, and she is also a child raised by Ju Yang Martial God. Xiao Shang suddenly transformed and became a distinguished guest of the Jagged Cavalry. Even the confiscated sachet and purse were returned to her.
Iron-blooded knights from foreign races have a deep-rooted hatred for people from the Middle Earth, so Xiang Ling tries to avoid getting close to them to avoid causing unnecessary irritation, but Xiao Shang is different. He puts on the same tiger costume as before, with a head on his head.
With an extra pair of ears and a wagging tail behind his back, he can easily break into the alien camp.
"Are you...are you Miss Shang?"
"Yes, this is what I look like after turning into a beast. In fact... I actually have alien blood. "
"Ah? Are you a member of our long-lost tribe?"
"More than that. Big brothers, I am your long-lost sister!"
It is undeniable that Xiaoshang, who has an angelic face and innocent big eyes, has the power to charm people's hearts. Even Xiangling himself was once bewitched for a while, so it is no wonder that these aliens are all
Fall in love with her and treat her like a good angel.
(Is this okay? But. Thousands of miles away from home. Can't see family and friends. All they have is hatred and killing all day long. They also need relief from such a huge psychological pressure. Miss Xiao Shang...she is like this
Take advantage of it.)
Xiangling shook her head, put herself in order, smiled and walked up the mountain with the basin in her hands. As soon as she turned the corner, she happened to see the young man's figure flying in mid-air.
"Oh, Qinggong has improved so quickly."
After seeing it more clearly, it turned out that it was not flying, but that it was knocked flying by Beigong Arhat and hit hard on a rock behind.
"Ah! Master!"
Xiangling rushed over with a basin in hand, and the hot towel dipped in warm water was just enough to wipe on the young man's dusty face, allowing him to take a break.
The sun was in the sky, and the time was close to noon. From before sunrise to now, Sun Wu had tried thousands of times, but with the same result. Not to mention fighting against Beigong Arhat, he had only just approached him.
Within two feet, he was knocked away by Beigong Luohan's sword energy that broke through the air. Protected by the golden bell, Sun Wu would not be dismembered by the sword energy like ordinary people, but he was knocked into the air and fell to the ground.
The taste is also unpleasant.
There was already a strength gap between the two, but the gap widened even further as Sun Wu was defeated by Tuoba Zhanyue and suffered internal injuries before he recovered. On that day, Sun Wu cooperated with Fei Lianxiu's guidance and was able to take advantage of various situations to take advantage of Beigong Luohan.
They were facing each other, but this time they fought head-on, without any tricks, and the gap between the two sides was clearly exposed.
"Damn it, I can't always get through..."
Sun Wu clenched his fists tightly and frowned because of the dilemma he faced. After continuous setbacks, the boy's current appearance was definitely not good-looking. Although the injuries were not serious on the outside, bruises began to appear, the corners of his mouth were cracked, and his right eye was damaged.
The boss was covered in black and blue, the result of more than a thousand consecutive collisions, not to mention the increasingly serious internal injuries, which caused blood to flow from his nose whenever he sat down.
"Master, you should rest for a day. If you continue to endure like this, no matter how strong the Golden Bell is, it will disintegrate and be lowered. Then it will be more difficult for you to break through. Also... if the internal organs are ruptured, it will be difficult to heal...
…”
"Xiang Ling, you are hesitant to speak, is it because lying makes you feel uncomfortable? If you want to say that I am stupid for doing this, there is no chance of success, then just say it directly, I will not be hit. Talk to me
When we are together, you don’t have to hide yourself, just say what you want to say. ”
"Uh! Master, why did you..."
Xiangling was really surprised. She wanted to ask Sun Wu why he became so alert, but she saw him grinning with his bloody mouth and handed back the soiled towel. He smiled and said: "No.
Worry about me, and don’t give up hope. I don’t think what I do is meaningless.”
The smile was so bright that it seemed to reflect the shining tomorrow in the sky. Xiangling couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then she saw the young man cheer up again and rush towards the Beigong Luohan place.
Comparing the two, even though Arhat in Beigong is sitting cross-legged on a big rock, the burly giant shadow is still as majestic as a mountain. With the sun behind it, it forms a huge shadow pressing down on the ground. Sun Wu, who rushes towards him, looks like
A kitten who does not know whether to live or die, taking on impossible challenges.
"Beigong Arhat, I'm here again!"
"Humph! You little devil who doesn't know how to live or die!"
Still the same as before, Beigong Arhat casually raised his hand. The extremely fierce sword energy came out, and struck through the air at the weakened Sun Wu. The scene that had been repeated more than a thousand times was staged again, and the young man's body rose from the ground.
, tumbled and flew in mid-air. Then he fell heavily on a huge rock ten feet away.
"bump!"
Amidst the loud noise, stone chips flew and scattered, and Sun Wu also fell down, but as if he did not want to worry Xiang Ling. As soon as he landed, he stood up steadily and rushed out again before Xiang Ling could say anything.
"Come again!"
"Annoying guy!"
Repeated situations were repeated again and again. Xiangling, who was watching from the sidelines, could only shake his head and secretly sighed that this might be a portrayal of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers.
From her point of view, Sun Wu's fighting was 100% foolish. Apart from seriously injuring himself, it had no other effect. On the contrary, Beigong Arhat, although he only forced his sword energy to injure the enemy in the air, his sword
The Qi would sometimes go straight, sometimes twist and turn, and sometimes even sneak into the ground first, and then burst out to injure the enemy. The ingenuity in its use was simply an art. She was also amazed by it.
As for Sun Wu, although his courage and will are commendable, his actions are meaningless. That is not a question of whether he can rush through. But what if he is allowed to rush through? At present, Beigong Luohan is unwilling and disdainful to fight with this junior.
, so he was forced to use his sword energy to knock the person away. If Sun Wu really allowed him to fight at close range, the serious Beigong Arhat could kill him with a casual move, and Sun Wu would only lose faster and more miserably.
(The bet is to defeat Beigong Arhat, not to get close to Beigong Arhat! If you rush up blindly like this, even if you rush to his side, what can you do? The martial arts of the two sides are so different that it is impossible to fight against him in five days.
If you have five years to go, maybe you can consider it...)
The master could only show off his bravery, so Xiang Ling, as a slave, had to use his brain. But after thinking about it, Xiang Ling couldn't find a way, how to help Sun Wu secretly without leaving any trace, and outmaneuver Beigong Luohan within a reasonable range.
(What Fei Lianxiu can do, I can't do. Doesn't this mean that I am inferior to her? Alas, it can't be compared like this. She just wants to design a way to help others take the sword, but I want to find a way to reverse the outcome.
, the difficulty of the two tasks is too different.)
Thoughts were flooding in her mind, but she didn't have a good plan. Seeing Sun Wu being beaten back again and again, Xiangling sighed and walked down the mountain steps with the wooden basin, ready to bring up clean water again.
On the way down the mountain, Xiangling and Tuoba Zangetsu passed by each other. Xiangling deliberately showed fear towards the young leader of the Iron-Blooded Cavalry and walked over with his head lowered to reduce the risk of revealing his identity.
The probability, and Tuoba Zangyue didn't care about this little maid, and walked straight over without even looking at her.
Regarding the actions of Tuoba Zhanyue and the Iron Blood Cavalry, Xiang Ling also felt that it was strange. The fact that the Buddha's blood relic was taken away by them has probably spread all over the world. Whether it is the black and white or the imperial army, they should be there now.
They were frantically searching for the whereabouts of the Iron-Blooded Cavalry. If they were found, a large-scale siege and battle would be inevitable. Although the Iron-Blooded Cavalry was strong, it had lost its mobility advantage and was outnumbered.
A series of puzzles, in the evening, due to an unexpected change, Xiang Ling felt even more confused.
Compared with Sun Wu who is constantly fighting hard, Xiao Shang is undoubtedly much more leisurely and is very popular among the Iron-Blooded Cavalry. Judging from the blood debt they bear, everyone in the Iron-Blooded Cavalry has hands full of blood. Evil madmen, but from another perspective, extremely evil madmen are also human beings. They also have human emotions and human fragility. If racial hatred and attitude are put aside, they are actually just a group of lonely men who have left their hometown.
With a certain purpose, these men made sacrifices, left their hometown, said goodbye to their relatives, and traveled thousands of miles into China. Their loneliness could not be relieved. This further deepened the venting of national hatred. They must be killed and chopped into pieces when attacking. Chinese people who had to leave their hometown. However, the existence and performance of Xiaoshang brought out the most vulnerable side of these men's hearts.
One after another, they either thought of their mothers and sisters in their hometown, or their wives who broke up shortly after their wedding, or their daughters who should be the same age. Long-lost homesickness, inextricable family ties, and the emotions of outsiders have always been straightforward. 'Unrestrained.' There was strong alcohol to cheer her up, and soon she started crying while talking.
Watching a man shed tears is not a great scene, but dozens of tough men gathered together, roaring like a pack of wolves. Howling and crying, this really gives people an indescribable feeling of desolation. .
As Sun Wu's personal maid, Xiangling was treated politely but indifferently. She didn't think there was anything wrong with this. However, when she passed by Xiaoshang one time, she was hit by an inconspicuous small stone. , then I saw Xiao Shang's mocking eyes, which seemed to be laughing and saying she only had this ability.
(Ha... don't tease me casually, Miss Shang, I don't pretend I didn't see every provocation.)
Seeing that the whole day was about to pass, there was nothing Sun Wu could do to help him. Being able to break into the enemy's circle would make things much easier. Based on these considerations, Xiang Ling decided to take action to respond to Xiao Shang's provocation.
Arriving outside the gathering crowd, Xiang Ling picked up a Morin Qin lying on the ground. This is a unique musical instrument of foreign tribes. The upper end of the piano pole is carved with a horse head. Both sides are covered with horse skin. The two shafts are made of two horse tails. The strings are played with a horsetail bow; Xiangling presses the strings with his left hand. He holds the bow in his right hand and starts playing slowly.
The melodious music pierced the night sky in the quiet forest in an instant, and the sound of the morin fiddle was soft and mellow. When the long and vast melody, with a strong national style, spread to the ears of the iron-blooded knights, These rough men who were drinking heavily and eating large pieces of meat all stopped. Even the top of the mountain where the fierce battle was going on suddenly became silent.
The girls under Wan Zilou's teachings are required to be proficient in music and multiple musical instruments, and Xiang Ling, who is clever and clever, is the leader among them. She is also proficient in musical instruments, even those of foreign races, which will be of great use at this moment.
Amidst the melodious music of the morin fur, the girl opened her red lips and sang a beautiful song from a foreign country in a foreign language. After a song of homesickness, the following song praised the vast scenery of the foreign country, the cold moon and yellow sand, the galloping iron cavalry, the mountains and snowy waters, and the oasis paradise. The various scenes are all national ditties that have been widely circulated outside the region. In addition to touching people's hearts, they also effectively win people's favor. When several consecutive ditties were sung, a crowd of people gathered around Xianglingdi.
What happens next is even more simple. Originally, the women cultivated by Wanzilou know how to observe words and colors and do what they like. If they are faced with a group of women or females,
, Xiang Ling will still find it difficult, but when the creatures in front of him are men, let alone a group of alien men whose guard has just been opened, Xiang Ling can control even a group of male beasts.
Post it.
A few simple words said that his grandparents were outsiders and entered China during the Taiping Rebellion. Following the defeat, the entire family was enslaved and he was sold into the Wanzi Tower. Half
The half-truth and half-false speech would be difficult for even a skilled lie detector to distinguish, but it effectively made the Iron-Blooded Knight regard Xiang Ling as one of his own. Once the conversation started, the atmosphere was completely different from before.
Different from Xiaoshang's aimlessness, Xiangling took advantage of the opportunity of conversation to find out many things without leaving any trace. Among them, the person who was engaged to Sun Wu particularly attracted Xiangling's attention because of a gold lock piece.
There should not be two marriages, one of them must be a liar.
"...The leader's sister, is she very beautiful?"
"Uh... the leader's sister? Who is she?... Oh oh oh, it means Princess Xiaoyue. Of course she is beautiful. She is recognized as the number one beauty outside our territory!"
"Xiaoyue... princess?"
Xiangling was shocked by the unexpected title. She seemed calm on the surface, but she was shocked to realize that the members of the Iron-Blooded Cavalry may not be as simple as imagined. There are even more important secrets hidden behind them.
But before the next round of conversation began, there was an uninvited guest in the crowd. He did not smell of alcohol. This tall, thin old man who claimed to be a teetotaler suddenly appeared in the crowd, talked to Xiang Ling, and praised her master for his courage and righteousness.
, he has a heroic spirit and is a rare good young man in this era.
Xiang Ling responded with humility. She didn't dare to be careless, because most of the Iron-Blooded Cavalry were people with no courage and lack of wisdom. The right commander Yuwen Guihe might be the think tank here, and she didn't know his intentions until she figured it out.
, absolutely cannot be taken lightly.
"...I also saw the confrontation between Sun Shaoxia and Bei Gong. Oh my, it was so miserable. There is no hope for that kind of fighting method. It's a pity that he still rushed forward like a young bull. "
To be honest, everyone came to the same conclusion, but what Xiang Ling was puzzled about was that in the decision-making hierarchy of the Iron-Blooded Cavalry, the leader, Tuoba Zangyue, was hesitant and hesitant to make a decision about killing people and collecting relics; Commander Zuo
Beigong Arhat is a staunch radical who will take out the relics at all costs; the right commander Yuwen Guihe insists on exchanging the relics for some major benefits, as if the Buddha's blood relic, which is very important to them, has become an untouchable hot potato.
Why is Yuwen Guihe's attitude like this? Is it because Ju Yang Martial God is under too much pressure? Or is there any other reason? Xiangling wants to know this very much.
"...Actually, even if your master can rush to Beigong's side, it is of no real significance. Do you know why? Look, you really don't know, because although the Golden Bell is said to be capable of both offense and defense, in the real master's place
In my eyes, this martial art is not threatening. The reason is..."
Of course Xiangling doesn't know what Yuwen Guihe is going to say.
The Golden Bell Cover is both offensive and defensive, and in essence it is a martial art that focuses on defense. Although it is almost invincible in combat and takes a lot of advantage, the result of being too stable also leads to a fatal situation.
The trouble is that there is no all-out attack method.
Xiang Ling doesn't like to make all-or-nothing decisions in battle. But she can't deny it as she has rich experience in actual combat. In many battles, it is often the last blow that explodes with all the strength of the body. Breaking through the enemy's vital points and reversing victory or defeat in an instant, just like
Holding a small ax to chop down a large tree. Although the ax is small, as long as it is sharp enough and hits the most vulnerable point of the tree, seemingly incredible results can be achieved.
This kind of small sharp ax is usually some kind of powerful attack move, or a more magical martial skill. In a nutshell, it is commonly called a special move.
"Ordinary young people who have just entered the world are often 'confused' by the power of their special moves and ignore the fundamentals. As a result, they rush into the world with half a move and are killed by the enemy before they have a chance to use their special moves. But in the case of Sun Shaoxia
It’s different. In terms of actual combat performance, he’s... too stable. "
To use a more realistic metaphor, if Sun Wu rushes to his side, Xiangling will not worry at all, because his only means of attack is to strike with a straight fist. The martial arts characteristics of the Golden Bell Cover, even if
When attacking, he still left 50% of his strength for defense. Even if Sun Wu tried his best to defeat the enemy, he would not use the kind of explosive martial arts that instantly condenses the whole body's strength into one blow. Therefore, the enemy can beat him hard.
Hit several times and take the opportunity to escape or counterattack.
If not, in the battle between Sun Wu and Beigong Luohan, despite the disparity in strength, they could still rely on various tactical designs and try to take risks to win.
(That's right. He does lack the kind of offensive skills that can make people feel chilled. Being able to control everything is more important than disturbing the enemy at present. He doesn't threaten the enemy. This... this is the place to teach him martial arts.
The result of loving a person too much and protecting him too much.)
Xiangling secretly agreed with this, but heard Yuwen Guihe said: "Actually, since Sun Shaoxia can use all-pervasive palms, he must have a solid foundation in magical skills. If he can use martial arts such as the Three Celestial Swords, then this competition will
It’s not that there is no hope. ”
Hearing this, Xiang Ling was shocked in her heart and secretly exclaimed, "I see." In the past, Ximen Zhuyu's Immortal Sword was famous in the world. It could even be said that it had never been defeated. It was as famous as Lu Yunqiao's Five Ultimate Divine Sword. Yuwen Guihe was a member of the Iron-Blooded Cavalry.
It is not surprising at all that the staff officer took this opportunity to 'find out' Sun Wu's background. It can even be said that even Tuoba Zhanyue coveted Ximen Zhuyu's magical inheritance.
(Takuba Zangyue came to our door in order to gain access to everything. This should not be a single incident. No wonder they were willing to take extraordinary risks and give us five days for no reason...)
Xiangling was thinking when she suddenly heard the sound of footsteps running down from the top of the mountain. When she looked up, she saw Sun Wu running quickly, approaching quickly, with his hand pointing to the sky. It seemed that he had discovered something strange.
.
(Could it be...the emperor's dragon boat?)
This surprise was no small matter. Xiang Ling stood up immediately, subconsciously boosting her energy and getting ready for battle. However, in the direction Sun Wu pointed at, the thing flying across the sky was not a huge ship.
, but something that looks like a dove. It is swooping down in this direction.
Xiangling recognized the strange pigeon made of metal as the magic weapon messenger pigeon used by Xiaoshang, and Yuwen Guihe on the side also recognized it.
"Oh, what a delicate messenger pigeon. It's so small in size but has such speed. The manufacturing skills are very impressive."
People know each other, and Yuwen Guihe's admiration revealed a hint of information. Xiangling discovered that this old man might be an expert in magic weapons, or even another magic weapon developer. He felt wary again.
The metal carrier pigeon finally landed on Xiao Shang's shoulder. Sun Wu, who was running quickly, also arrived at this time to confirm whether this was the carrier pigeon sent back to Liangshanbo many days ago. The answer was naturally yes.
The homing pigeon jumped nimbly on Xiao Shang's shoulder. After being patted by Xiao Shang, it spit out a small button-like disc. Sun Wu didn't know what the function of this small disc was, but there was one thing he was anxious to do first.
.
"Xiao Shang. It takes time for carrier pigeons to travel back and forth to my hometown. I'm in a hurry to ask questions. Please help me deliver this letter first."
"There is no guarantee of a reply, nor is there a guarantee of return time. Maybe it will be three months before the homing pigeon comes back."
"That's why I want you to send the letter right away!"
Xiao Shang stuffed the note that Sun Wu had just written into the pigeon's mouth, released the pigeon, and watched it flutter its wings and fly to the sky until it disappeared without a trace. Then he came to deal with the small metal disc.
Hearing that it was something from Sun Wu's hometown, Yuwen Guihe and a group of iron-blooded knights were very curious. They asked if this was a message from Ju Yang Martial God, and even Tuoba Zhanyue arrived silently.
, standing on the outermost edge of the crowd, peeking inside.
"It's impossible. The carrier pigeon is sending a letter to my sister, not to my father, so the only one who replies is my sister, and I can't see my father's letter."
Sun Wu simply explained that he had just seen the carrier pigeon flying far away on the mountain, so he gave up the fight and came to Xiao Shang first to see the message from the carrier pigeon.
That small metal disc was apparently some kind of magic weapon for storing sounds and three-dimensional images. After Xiao Shang's simple operation, a burst of ear-splitting laughter suddenly erupted.
"Hahahaha~~~~~"
Like a heroic old lion, even though he is old, his heroic laughter is still so majestic that it makes people's ears hurt. For Sun Wu and Xiao Shang, this laughter is very familiar, but in the Iron-Blooded Cavalry Group
To others, this was the legendary laughter. Many people's expressions changed instantly. However, this laughter changed midway.
"Hahaha...cough...cough cough cough..."
A burst of rapid coughing interrupted the long laugh, and the momentum of the entire voice suddenly weakened, turning into a series of coughs. It sounded even more old, as if he was seriously ill.
Just hearing this voice, Sun Wu was shocked, because in his memory, his father was always energetic and energetic, especially as a teenager. He had never seen him sick or in pain. How come he left his hometown not long ago?
Are you sick?
After the series of coughs temporarily ended, the small disc Xiaoshang placed on the ground suddenly lit up, releasing a beam of light upwards, spreading out in a fan shape, and a blurry image slowly emerged in the light curtain.
"...To those who listen to this message...this may...be my last message from Kazuo Nakayama..."
The ominous words were accompanied by a slight cough, and then the picture became clear, and the familiar figure of the young man appeared.
"Dad!"
What appeared amidst the boy's screams was an old man sitting slanted on the bed. His face was haggard and pale. He looked like he was seriously ill and about to die; he had taken off his pilot's hat and protective gear.
Looking through the eyepiece, the old man had a white scarf wrapped around his forehead, representing a seriously ill patient, and the white quilt covered his chest. He opened his eyes as if it was very difficult, facing the direction of the center of the picture, and tried hard to lift his trembling arms.
hand.
"...Xiao Wu...can you hear dad's voice? Are you there? After you left, dad, I... ahem... got sick. "
A series of violent coughs interrupted the old man's speech. He coughed wildly for a long time before he finally spoke again.
"It's not a serious illness, just a little cold. Ahem, Dad, I'm in good health. There's nothing wrong with me. Don't worry, and don't come back to see Dad just because of this..."
Halfway through his words, he was interrupted by a cough. Although he kept saying that he was fine, anyone could see that the illness was not just a minor cold, but a very serious illness.
Except for Xiao Shang, who was in charge of the broadcast, everyone else present felt a little pity when they saw such a scene, especially the members of the Iron-Blooded Cavalry, who saw that the legendary Juyang Martial God, whose martial arts was so powerful that he was not human, actually
He has become so old and ugly that anyone would find it difficult to accept.
However, if we talk about the impact of this scene, then no one can compare with Sun Wu.
