Although there are many sects in the opponent's formation, except for Liu Yuanhe and a few masters, everyone else is just a ragtag group. Although the group of knights in green can be considered elite, Chu Changting can tell at a glance that they None of them have practiced any superior martial arts, so they cannot compare with the Black Eagle Knight.
The conditions for this duel were very favorable to Chu Changting no matter how you looked at them. However, he glanced at the cowhide holsters hanging on the saddles of the disciples from the Perak camp opposite him. His heart moved and he sneered: "Master Hua proposed this condition, but he wanted to Are you using firearms to hurt people?"
Hua Bushi shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "If you say you are timid and still don't admit it, well, we might as well set another condition. The two sides will only compete on the basis of martial arts, and are not allowed to use any firearms or hidden weapons. Now you You can rest assured.”
Chu Changting said: "Okay, let's just say this, call your people over, and we will decide the outcome under the valley."
With his martial arts, he is not afraid of ordinary muskets, but if the opponent sends fifty musketeers, although Chu Changting is sure to win, his fifty Black Eagle Cavalry will inevitably be damaged. Now Hua Bushi promised not to use firearms, so he no longer hesitated and agreed.[
At the foot of Peach Blossom Mountain, there is a peach forest in the valley, right between the people and horses on both sides. The more than a hundred peach trees in the forest are six or seven feet high, and their branches and leaves are very dense.
Chu Changting gave an order, and fifty underworld knights rode out and arrived in front of Taolin. It can be seen more clearly from a close distance. Each of these knights is tall and tall, and their body shape is even bigger than that of the disciples of Pili Camp. He is strong, covered in armor that is inaccessible to swords and guns, and has black arm guards on his forearms. The protruding sharp blades on them are like eagle claws. This is probably the origin of the name Black Eagle Knight.
Liu Yuanhe was already prepared for a fight to the death with Chu Changting, but now Hua Bushi suddenly changed the conditions and decided on a duel method of fifty people, which shocked the elder of the "Arhat Sect" , he can also see the strength of the knights on the other side. Even if he selects the fifty strongest masters from the forty Baidao sects and joins him to fight the enemy together, I am afraid that the result will be worse than that between him and Chu Changting. If you fight alone, you will lose even more miserably.
Hua Bushi also saw the look on his face and said, "Elder Liu, please go back to the slope to watch the battle."
Hearing Young Master Hua's tone that he did not want him to participate in the battle, Liu Yuanhe was even more shocked and said resolutely: "No, since I signed my name on the battle sticker, I am not afraid of a battle with Chu Changting."
Hua Bushi shook his head and said: "Although Elder Liu is not afraid, this duel will affect our success or failure. I have already made arrangements, so Elder Liu should retreat first."
Before Liu Yuanhe could say anything more, Yuan Xi had already galloped to his side and advised: "Uncle Liu, since Master Hua is in charge of this trip, let's just follow his arrangements. I'm sure Master Hua will have a plan to defeat the enemy. "
At this time, Hua Bushi turned to Chu Yiyi and asked: "Mrs. Yiyi, have Qianli and the others arrived yet?"
Chu Yiyi replied: "They have arrived a long time ago. Master will order them to come out."
Hua Bushi said: "Thank you, madam."
Chu Yiyi pursed her lips and smiled, reached out and took out a wooden whistle from her arms, put it to Yingying's lips and blew, and the melodious whistle suddenly sounded in the valley.
Liu Yuanhe, Yuan Xi, and even everyone on the hillside could all see that this move was sending a signal. It turned out that Young Master Hua had already deployed reinforcements here. No wonder he dared to challenge Chu Changting without shame.
At this time, another whistle was heard coming from the Qin River, apparently in response to Chu Yiyi's whistle. Everyone raised their eyes to look at the river, and saw five small canoes drawn out from the reeds. There were about ten people standing on each wooden boat, and as expected, there were about fifty people in total.
Yuan Xi couldn't help but ask: "Master Hua, do you want them to duel with Chu Changting and Black Eagle Knight?"
Hua Bushi smiled leisurely and said: "I have already said that I have prepared two treasures to deal with Chu Changting. The trebuchet and fire oil tank is the first one, and they are the second one."
Everyone was able to confront Chu Changting's underworld navy on the Yellow River for several days, and the trebuchets and fire oil tanks were indispensable. Hua Bushi's first treasure played a big role, and now it's time for the decisive battle. At the critical moment, can this young master's second treasure be able to use his power to defeat the enemy?
Yuan Xi was filled with curiosity. He raised his eyes and looked up, only to see that the people standing on the wooden boat were all dressed in green shorts. Each person had a long sword slung across his shoulder, with a green silk ribbon on the hilt. They were flying in the breeze, but they looked about twenty years old.
At their age, even among famous sects such as Shaolin and Wudang, they can only be regarded as junior disciples. Their martial arts must have not yet been fully developed. How can they actually compete with Chu Changting and those fifty experienced warriors? Do you want to compete with the underworld knights in the formation?
Yuan Xi was puzzled, but his eyes suddenly fell on a young man standing upright on the bow of the first canoe. This man was only in his early twenties. He was also wearing a green shirt, with a shoulder strap The hilt of the sword is not tied with a ribbon like other swordsmen, it is just a bare and fully decorated white oak, and the sleeve of his left arm is empty and tied into the belt.[
It turned out that this young man only had one arm, and Yuan Xi had already guessed who this person was in an instant.
The fact that Yu Qianli killed Chi Huameng in Wuyang City and defeated Bailiyin on the Xiangjiang River has already spread throughout the world. He is actually the most famous among the "Five Evil Dogs".
The boat was traveling very fast, and it reached the shore in a blink of an eye. However, a group of swordsmen in blue were seen disembarking from the boat and heading towards the hillside. The swiftness of their movements showed that their lightness skills were extraordinary, and their movements were clear and precise. The spiritual temperament can further show that their internal skills are not weak, and they are not inferior to the relegated disciples of famous sects.
Yuan Xi was secretly surprised when he saw this, and thought to himself that this "evil dog son" had already made full preparations for today's battle, and he might not have a chance of winning this battle.
"Master, I'm here to greet you, Yu Qianli." The one-armed young man bowed respectfully.
The swordsmen in green clothes behind him also clasped their fists and bowed, saying in unison: "Young Master Qingyun Guards."
On the day he left Mount Wei, Hua Bushi was determined to develop his power in Henan Province. Although the situation was very chaotic at the moment, the devil controlled the "Fugui Alliance", and the "Arhat Sect" and "Shaolin Sect" A fight started, but the young master did not want to give in. Instead, he hoped to use this opportunity to compete for a place in Yu Realm.
If you want to fight for hegemony, the first condition is to have enough force. This time in Qianyu, Hua Bushi never thought that he would face such a war, and the departure of Yang Jiangyi made him feel that the power around him was insufficient. , so Hua Bushi asked Chu Yiyi to pass a message to Xiangjing, and ordered Yu Qianli in Changsha City to lead Qingyun Guards to rush quickly.
Nowadays, there are three war departments in the "Evil Dog Gate". In addition to the Pili Battalion next to Hua Bushi, Yu Qianli leads the Qingyun Guards to guard the Changsha Branch, while Zhu Hong leads the Tiger Guards to protect the coasts of Guangdong and Fujian and Dacang Island. Hua Bushi transferred Qingyun Guards to the branch of the sect in that territory and the safety of the ocean-going trading ships. Firstly, Changsha City is much closer than Guangdong and Fujian. Secondly, Wuyang City’s chief helmsman has his father Hua Tianxiong and The second uncle and other masters are in charge, and it is not far from Changsha City. Even if Qingyun Wei and Yu Qianli leave temporarily, there should be no problem with the Changsha helm.
The journey from Hunan to the border of Hunan is thousands of miles long, and even a quick horse trip will take at least ten days. When Yu Qianli and his entourage entered the border of Henan, Hua Bushi had already set out from Kaifeng with more than forty sects and took a boat along the Yellow River. Go to Mengjin by water.
The communication method of "Qianhuafang" is very fast. Hua Bushi can keep track of the itinerary of Yu Qianli and Qingyun Guard at any time. He also expected that the heroes' fleet would be intercepted by the underworld when they arrived at Taohuayu, so he asked them to rush directly. Go here.
After using trebuchets and cupping pots to huddle on the river for three days, they bought enough time for Yu Qianli and Qingyun Guards to arrive. Hua Bushi decided on today's plan and had them ambush on the Qin River. A surprising force.
Seeing Yu Qianli at this time, Hua Bushi felt a lot of emotion in his heart. After returning from the South China Sea, he had been busy in various places, expanding the power of the sect and establishing a branch, but he had never been to Changsha City. , the last time he met this eldest disciple was before leaving for Wanyi Island, and it has been nearly two years now.
Yu Qianli is still thin and tall, giving the impression of an independent and sharp sword, and his face is still slightly pale, no different from two years ago, but his eyes and temperament seem to be more calm. .
Hua Bushi had already jumped off his horse and reached out to help Yu Qianli. He had many things to say, but his lips trembled a few times, but he finally said nothing. After a long while, he said: "Qianli, there is no time to talk about the powerful enemy right now. Wait. After this battle, I will have a good time catching up with you."
Yu Qianli nodded and said: "Okay, Qianli will definitely fight with his best."

This peach grove in the valley has a total area of 30 feet. The hillside where the heroes of the various Baidao sects are located and the underworld troops who are returning from Chu Changting are separated at both ends of the peach grove, facing each other from a distance. Everyone's eyes are looking into the valley.
On the other two sides of the valley, one side is the steep stone peak of Taohua Valley, and the other side is a large white reed bush on the bank of Qin River.
To say that there are mountains, water, white reeds and green grass here, the scenery is really good, but it is a pity that it will turn into a killing ground for a decisive battle in a few moments.
Yu Qianli and the forty-nine Qingyun Guards were already standing in the valley. The green branches and leaves on the peach trees seemed to have melted into the green shirts they were wearing. Chu Changting and the fifty Black Eagle Knights were retreating outside the peach forest. More than ten feet behind.
When a knight charges with the help of horse power, he naturally needs a certain distance to achieve maximum power.[
