Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 128
Xiao Hongzhang nodded vigorously.

Qin Hankuan didn't respond, he was still brooding about saying to Princess Gu of the Goddess Palace that he was "careful and thoughtful".

"I didn't feel depressed, but I kept thinking... What kind of palm technique did she use when fighting against Palace Master Gu? It was able to produce a miracle of water mist!" Xue Chang asked curiously.

"I heard that Goddess Palace has a unique technique called Shuiyun Palm, which is as soft as clouds and as strong as water. You should be facing it." Tang Tianshu introduced: "As for the strange phenomenon surrounded by water mist, it's not like this. What the palm technique brought about should be the inner strength practiced by Palace Master Gu——Morning Clouds and Evening Rain. It is said that when a practitioner performs this set of exercises, there will be water mist around his hands and feet. After a long time, the opponent will be surrounded by clouds It's like a thick fog, and it's white and at a loss, but the Goddess Palace can fight freely in it, so they can always win by surprise."

"So amazing?!" Xue Chang was a little surprised.

"At first, I just heard it, but when I saw it today, I thought it might be true." Tang Tianshu continued, "Don't envy others' miraculous martial arts. Palace Master Gu also said that your palm technique is amazing."

Xue Chang smiled slightly, but did not answer.

..............................................................................

On the third day, Gu Shijing did not let the fifth scout team continue to patrol, which made Xue Chang and the others relieved. The other three went out to the barracks to hang out, and only Xue Chang stayed in the small courtyard.Although the system reminded him that he did not practice as much as before, he still had to do homework every day, especially during the day when he was rarely free.

Once the Jiuyang Divine Art is practiced, it will be past noon without knowing it.

Xue Chang was delighted after receiving the power, because he found that when the inner breath was running and approaching the peak, he was no longer stagnant and difficult as usual, and it seemed that the road ahead was a little loose.

This discovery made him excited all day, so that Qin Hankuan and Xiao Hongzhang came back very late, and he forgot to say hello.

On the fourth day, Palace Master Gu ordered the fifth scout team to go out on patrol again, which frustrated Xue Chang's idea of ​​continuing to practice internal skills during the day.

The military report came back from the south, and the Ping and Qiang army had surrounded Laifu City, and began to step up building siege equipment, ready to attack the city at all times.The Rongzhou military camp was still calm, and there was no sign of any rebels wanting to make a surprise attack.

In the early morning of the fifth day, when Xue Chang and the others were having breakfast, Tang Tianshu pushed the door open and said with a dejected expression, "Brothers, I have some bad news for you. We have to go on patrol today."

Xue Chang slammed the wooden chopsticks on the table, and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Tang, we patrolled for three days in the first four days, and they only patrolled for one day. This is enough to take care of them. Why do you want us to patrol today? ah?!"

Before Tang Tianshu answered, Gu Shijing's voice came from the courtyard next door: "Why, are you dissatisfied?"

When Xue Chang heard this, he became even more angry, and said loudly towards the other side: "I just don't accept it, what's the matter! Beat me up again? That's just right, I don't have to go on patrol if I get injured."

Xue Chang succumbed to force the day before yesterday, but today he seems to have found a new way to deal with Gu Shijing.

At this time, laughter like silver bells sounded from the yard next door.

After a moment of silence, Gu Shijing's voice sounded again: "Tang Tianshu, you are the boss, I leave this matter to you."

Tang Tianshu said helplessly: "Xue Chang, we lost the fight the day before yesterday, and we agreed to obey Palace Master Gu's orders. Now it seems that she wants us to patrol for two days, and Goddess Palace only for one day. Bad, right?"

Qin Hankuan and Xiao Hongzhang looked at each other, stood up and said, "Oh, I'd like to bet, but they are women. Let's patrol one more day."

Originally, Xue Chang made a breakthrough last night when he practiced the Nine Suns Divine Art because he had great expectations, but he still failed to succeed. can agree.

The four of them took their equipment, left the small courtyard, and set foot on the East-West Avenue.

When he reached the West Camp Gate, Tang Tianshu habitually greeted the guards at the camp gate.

They came in and out these few days, and the captain of the guard was a little familiar with them, and immediately said: "Tang Shaoxia, half an hour ago, a small column of smoke rose over there, I suggest you go and check it out."

"Pillar of smoke?" Tang Tianshu frowned, and looked in the direction pointed by the captain of the guard: it was a gloomy mountain range, and there seemed to be nothing unusual from a distance.

He asked again: "What color? How long did it last?"

"It's white, it disperses after about a stick of incense, and we all saw it." A guard replied.

"Are there any other abnormalities?" Tang Tianshu asked again.

The guard captain shook his head.

"Okay, let's go and have a look now." Tang Tianshu turned around and said, "Brothers, we have work to do."

Upon hearing this, all three cheered up.

Tang Tianshu led them out of the barracks and hurried west.After entering the mountains, they slowed down and opened up the distance. Qin Hankuan and Xiao Hongzhang were in front, Xue Chang and Tang Tianshu were behind, and moved forward cautiously.

Not far from Rongzhou Military Camp is Rongzhou City to the east, Sichuan West Plain to the north, Shujiang River to the south, and mountains not far to the west, extending westward. If the rebels want to raid the barracks, the mountains to the west are the most likely place for them to hide, so it is also the place where the scout team often patrols during this period. Tang Tianshu and the others are quite familiar with this place.

Although it didn't rain today, the sun didn't come out either. The weather was a bit gloomy. The light in this wooded mountain was naturally dimmer. The morning fog hadn't completely dissipated. There was a looming mist floating in the room, and the cold air was a bit refreshing.Occasionally there were one or two strange croaking sounds, occasionally a big bird flitted across the forest, and occasionally there was a shrill cry from nowhere...all gently touched the sensitive nerves of the scout team.

"The smoke column mentioned by the guards should be around here. Keep your eyes open and look for it." As soon as Tang Tianshu finished speaking, he heard Qin Hankuan shouting in front of him: "Here! Here!"

After Xue Chang heard it, he immediately wanted to run over, but was stopped by Tang Tianshu: "As a servant, in such an environment, you may encounter the enemy at any time, so be careful, and don't fall into the enemy's ambush!"

Xue Chang nodded solemnly, and immediately moved forward cautiously with Tang Tianshu.

In front of them, Qin Hankuan and Xiao Hongzhang were crouching in the wild grass. Below them was a striking black circle: it was the traces of dead branches, grass, and scraps of paper poured with grease and burned.

Qin Hankuan pulled out some bones from the black ashes, picked up two pieces, looked at them carefully, and said, "These should be pheasant bones. It seems that they roasted pheasants here before."

"They?" Tang Tianshu narrowed his eyes.

"Judging from the footprints left on the ground, there should be two people." Xiao Hongzhang, who was searching in the grass, stood up.

"Two people..." Tang Tianshu thought for a while, and said, "It might be a nearby Orion, or it might be a spy from the rebel army... Which way are they going?"

Xiao Hongzhang used his feet to push aside a mass of wild grass, revealing a shallow footprint: "It should be over there."

The direction Xiao Hongzhang pointed to was the depths of the mountains to the west, where the trees were taller, the grass was denser, and the rocks were jagged...

Tang Tianshu hesitated for a moment, then said, "I think we should continue to investigate, what do you think?"

Qin Hankuan was the first to say: "Of course we will go to Tantan. Everyone else is doing meritorious deeds in the south. We have been idle for several days. We finally have such an opportunity to make meritorious deeds. We must not let it go!"

"You can go!" Xiao Hongzhang said concisely.

"Xue Chang, what's your opinion?" Tang Tianshu looked at Xue Chang.

"I have the same opinion as everyone else." Xue Chang felt that he had martial arts at his side, and he was not afraid of danger.

"Okay, then our fifth scout team will go to investigate!" Tang Tianshu said in a deep voice: "However, the mountains are high and the forest is dense. In order to prevent the enemy from ambush and wipe out the whole army, we have to follow the old method of the scout team—" He said After a pause, he said with a solemn expression: "Hong Zhang and Han Kuan went to investigate, and every three miles they traveled, and found that there was nothing wrong, they would cry like birds, and Xue Chang and I would follow up immediately. If we encounter a strong enemy, we should cry like wolves. Are you ready, do you understand?"

The three nodded.

"Then let's take action." As soon as Tang Tianshu finished speaking, Qin Hankuan and Xiao Hongzhang trotted forward one after the other, stopping from time to time, leaning against the thick tree trunk to hide their figures, observing the surroundings vigilantly, and quickly disappeared. In Xue Chang's vision.

"Finally I can take a break." Tang Tianshu stretched his waist, sat down on the dry ground next to the pile of ashes, and patted his side with his hands: "Xue Chang, come and have a rest."

"Brother Tang, didn't you say we should be vigilant?" Xue Chang asked suspiciously.

"Being vigilant doesn't affect our rest." Tang Tianshu smiled and said, "Actually, I see Xiao Hongzhang and Qin Hankuan are eager to make contributions, so I'm sorry to speak out against them. If it's really the martial arts people from the rebel army who came , there is no need to send spies, because the military camp is there. There is no need to deliberately send spies to lure us, because with their strength, they can completely ambush around this mountain and wipe us out in one fell swoop."

"So... the person who roasted and ate pheasants here before was really Orion?" Xue Chang was dubious.

"Maybe." Tang Tianshu looked indifferent, but touched his clothes seriously with his hands, and sighed: "It's really troublesome to explore the mountains in this weather. You see, the clothes are all soaked in dew." gone."

No matter what time it is, I still have the mind to care about clothes! … Xue Chang cursed in his heart, and was about to say: "They should be singing birds." From the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure passing by not far away, he suddenly turned around, and shouted: "Who is it?! "

Tang Tianshu stood up quickly, looked at the man in black who was running wildly not far ahead, and said decisively: "The behavior is suspicious, catch him!"

Xue Chang quickly followed.

Immediately afterwards, a wolf howled from behind, sounding like a sound.

Qin Hankuan and the others encountered an enemy! ...The expressions of both of them changed, and they stopped at the same time.

Tang Tianshu made a decisive decision: "Xue Chang, I'm going to chase the man in black, you go to rescue them first! Remember! The situation over there is unknown, so you must be extremely careful. If you find a strong enemy, don't think about anything and retreat quickly, understand? ?!"

"Understood, thank you! You have to be careful!" Xue Chang nodded heavily at Tang Tianshu, turned around and ran deep into the mountains.

This is a rugged trail leading to the top of the mountain. The road is narrow and difficult to walk. It can be seen that there are few people coming there at ordinary times, but it is not a problem for Xue Chang. He performed the light skill of chasing the wind and chasing the moon, and countless trees passed by him at a very fast speed. It will take a while Entered the two-mile mountain road.

Then he saw a person lying under a huge semi-circular rock beside the trail not far ahead. Judging by his attire, he should be Xiao Hongzhang.

Xue Chang was startled, stopped, and looked around vigilantly, but there was silence around him, and no other figures were seen.

Xue Chang had many doubts in his heart, but he had to determine whether Xiao Hongzhang was dead or alive, so he walked towards Xiao Hongzhang quickly, but he did not let down his vigilance.

Xiao Hongzhang fell on the ground, still holding the long sword in his hand, blood flowed out from his armpit, staining the wild grass beside him red, it seemed that the wound was on his chest...

Xue Chang approached, and first yelled twice: "Brother Xiao! Brother Xiao!"

Xiao Hongzhang didn't respond, but Xue Chang keenly noticed that the opponent's hand holding the sword seemed to be tight. He suddenly remembered Tang Tianshu's advice, and subconsciously took a step back.

He suddenly heard a sound coming from the side and rear, he turned his head and looked back, and saw two figures rushing out from behind the rocks, one of them was Qin Hankuan, holding a pair of daggers, stabbing him in the back impressively, while the other was a stranger The man held a big knife and slashed at him.

Xue Chang was taken aback, he didn't have time to think, and prepared to turn around to meet the enemy.

Xiao Hongzhang, who was lying motionless like a dead body, suddenly stood up, and quickly stabbed his chest with the long sword in his hand.

Unsuspecting, Xue Chang stepped into a trap set by others, was surrounded by three parties, and fell to his death.

At this moment of life and death, Xue Chang let out an angry roar, turned around abruptly, completely exposed his back to Xiao Hongzhang, drew a circular arc with his palms, and angrily struck out at the attacking two, with all his strength under the crisis. Strike, the sound of dragons and tigers roaring is clearer and louder than usual.

"clang!"

"Canopy!"

"Canopy!"

"what!"

"what!"

……

Many voices sounded one after another at that moment.

Qin Hankuan and the stranger attacked from behind. They would like to think that Xue Chang would deal with Xiao Hongzhang's assassination first. They were afraid that the other party would evade, so they attacked with all their strength and had no defense, but they never thought that Xue Chang would attack them first.

Because of the short dagger, Qin Hankuan rushed to the front, and received a solid slap from Kanglong Youhui. He was immediately beaten until blood spurted out, and he fell backwards, falling to the ground.

The stranger's broadsword was hit by Xue Chang's palm, and he fell backwards. The back of the knife hit his forehead, causing him to cry out in pain, and retreated many steps.
