Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1640 Beauty saves the hero
  Following the blood stains, Long Qie got into the woods and headed deeper into the forest.

Not too far away, some traces of pedestrians were found. There must have been a lot of people trampling on this place recently, and the direction of the blood stains was completely consistent with the traces of human trampling.

Long Qie slowed down and became cautious.

Although he judged that there should be no danger ahead, as a general, the most taboo thing is to be disrespectful and rush forward, so it is always right to be careful.

Continuing to follow the blood trail slowly and deeper, Long Qie finally found a place - an extremely hidden and remote cave entrance.

The area around the cave had probably been cleaned deliberately, but there were no traces of man-made traces, including the bloodstains that disappeared when they reached the area. If it hadn't been for Long Qi's experience, he might not have been able to find it for a while.

I just don’t know what kind of characters are hiding in the cave.

After approaching the entrance of the cave, Long Qie's ears moved and he noticed subtle footsteps. Someone should be coming out.

He calmly slowed down and leaned gently to the side of the cave entrance, holding the dragon-marked war spear tightly in his hand. When the people in the cave came to the door, he suddenly raised the spear.

Just hearing a scream, a basin filled with water fell to the ground. The tip of Long Qie's spear was pointed at the throat of a delicate girl. The girl was so frightened that she didn't dare to move and stared at Long Qie nervously. .

Seeing that the other party was not a threat, Long Qie quickly removed his weapon. At the same time, he also recognized the other party - his memory was not bad. He had just met the person a few days ago, and even though it was just a one-time encounter, he still had some impressions.

"Are you a villager who fled that day?"

The girl nodded timidly. Although she recognized Long Qie as the person who saved them that day, she was frightened just now and has not recovered yet.

Seeing that she was silent, Long Qie had no choice but to ask, "Why are you here?"

"Oh... After being rescued by the general that day, everyone hid here because they were afraid that the army would come to arrest them again... It's very hidden here."

When speaking, the woman's eyes were a little evasive. Even though she had calmed down, she still seemed to be afraid of Long Qie.

Long Qie blinked his eyes and suddenly asked, "Is it convenient for me to go in and take a look?"

"Uh... Okay, please come with me." The girl hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse after all.

Yu Qing had saved them before, so she couldn't refuse. Yu Li, it was unwise to say no to a general who was covered in armor and holding a spear.

The two of them walked into the cave one after another. The space inside the cave was very large and winding. It was a unique cave. No wonder it was chosen as their hiding place.

Going deep into the cave, Long Qie saw many villagers who had been rescued that day, sitting or lying together, and they didn't look very good-looking.

Hiding in the cave, there may be no shortage of water, but there is definitely not enough food, and it is natural that they all look disheveled.

The sudden appearance of Long Qie in armor startled them. Fortunately, Long Qie's armor was highly recognizable, and someone in the crowd quickly recognized him.

After a while of disturbance, many villagers felt at ease.

A rickety old man with trembling movements came up to him, probably the leader of the group.

"Last time, I and many of my fellow villagers were saved by the general. I'm really grateful. But we haven't learned the general's name yet?"

Long Qie grasped the gun and made a fist, announcing his family status loudly, "I am Long Qie, the Tenglong Legion of Chu State!"

"As for rescuing people...it's both fate and a soldier's bounden duty. You don't have to be polite."

Hearing Long Qie's words, those with a quick tongue couldn't help but say, "Chu people? Isn't Chu already gone?"

As soon as these words came out, some smart people immediately became nervous. Is the Chu Kingdom going to perish? Do you need to remind me? What kind of retarded operation is it to tear someone's wounds?
  They are a little worried that Long Qi will be angry. After all, they are only at the bottom of society and cannot bear any risks.

Masters like Long Qie may save them when they are in a good mood, but if they are unhappy, it is common for them to get angry at them in turn.

The common people, like tumbleweeds in the wind, never determine their own rights and qualifications.

Fortunately, Long Qi was a kind man. Although he did feel like he had been stabbed in the heart, he did not express his anger. He just solemnly explained the matter to everyone:
  "The Kingdom of Chu is indeed dead."

"But Chu people have never died. We still live on this land and fight for our country!"

He was very impassioned, but the villagers in the cave didn't react much.

To put it bluntly, isn’t it just holding back the rebellion?
  They were almost executed before because they were suspected of treason, but now if they are expected to be moved by this sensitive topic... then they really dare not move!

Even if ordinary people are dissatisfied with the imperial court, most of them dare not say a word. Not everyone dares to shout the slogan "Princes, princes and generals should rather have their own kind".

Long Qie didn't care. He was just clarifying his position, and he wasn't here to trick the old, weak, sick and disabled into joining his Tenglong Legion.

At this time, the girl who brought him in bowed slightly and apologized to him, "I'm really sorry, General Long Qie, they just said it unintentionally."

Long Qie raised his hand, indicating that she didn't need to say anything.

Seeing that he was indeed not angry, the girl was relieved and then asked, "Chu is far away in the south. Why did the general come to Dongjun?"

Long Qie did not answer her question, nor could he explain this complicated issue. Instead, he stated his purpose of coming here:
  "I'm looking for someone."

As soon as he said these words, the girl became obviously more nervous, and many villagers subconsciously gathered together - not to join forces to beat him, but to try to cover his sight.

Long Qie naturally saw their cover-up at a glance, but subconsciously wanted to walk towards the place they were covering, but the girl stopped him and shouted with a trembling voice:

"General!"

When Long Qie heard the sound, he also realized that his actions seemed to have irritated these villagers. He stopped temporarily and explained:
  "Don't be nervous, I'm not here to cause trouble for him. I was entrusted by his friends to help him."

"Let me meet him."

Seeing the dragon's sincere attitude, the girl hesitated for a while and finally relented - not agreeing, her little arms couldn't twist her thigh after all.

"General, please come with me."

Long Qie followed the girl through the crowd and turned a corner to the deepest part of the cave. There was a flat boulder covered with a straw mat. Zhong Limei, who had removed his armor, was lying on it, with an extra bandage wrapped around his body. The cloth strips surrounded by blood stains were probably measures taken by the villagers to stop the bleeding after they rescued him.

It was obvious that their conditions were limited, so they could only stop Zhong Limei from continuing to bleed... A large part of the credit for this lies in his own physical fitness.

The pretty girl sat next to Zhong Limei and said sadly:

"He was badly injured... when I found him, he was barely breathing."

"This is the first time I've seen someone suffer such serious injuries..."

At that time, she was in the mood to collect Zhong Limei's body, but unexpectedly found that the person was still alive, so she quickly brought it back.

Even if she brought him back, she didn't think she could save him.

Although she has some medical skills, the conditions in this place are not much different from waiting to die in another place.

In the end, relying on some herbs collected from nearby, Zhong Limei was really able to hold his breath... Of course, he could still die at any time. Only when a person truly regains consciousness can he be considered safe. Seeing the many injuries on Zhong Limei's body, especially the fatal wounds on his abdomen and heart, Long Qie's eyes flashed with joy.

Fortunately, no one is dead yet.

The next thing that came to his mind was the thought that Zhong Limei must not be allowed to die.

He didn't know if Zhuifeng Hujian was a member of the 'Fenglinhuoshan' that Chu Nangong told him, but until it was proven that Zhong Limei was not, nothing would happen to him!

Without any delay, Long Qie immediately said to the girl sitting next to Zhong Limei who was worried about her lover... ah, no, she was worried about her benefactor:
  "Please, girl, please take the trouble to continue to look after him for a while. I'll go find someone to save him right now!"

After saying that, Long Qie left in a hurry.

He really didn't dare to delay at all. If someone was close to dying, he would be in big trouble.

………………

Daze Mountain, Luomapo, above the forest clearing.

The battle between Shengqi and Tanaka Tiger Demon continues.

At first glance, the situation is still very tense. The tiger demon is taking the lead and Tian Zhong is waiting for an opportunity to provide support. Shengqi's pace is completely delayed and trapped between the two.

But in fact, the situation has slipped to the unfavorable side for Tian Zhong and the others, but Tian Mi hasn't realized that she should withdraw.

Tian Zhong said something very right - Sheng Qi has been away from the farmhouse for too long.

It had been so long that he had the most detailed information about the Dize Formation in his memory, but after he actually saw the Dize Formation again, he no longer felt familiar at all.

So at first he was completely unsuited to the battle rhythm between Tian Zhong and Tiger Demon using formations to coordinate with each other.

But this strangeness is only temporary, and his body will soon become familiar with this most important core technology of the farmer again.

So now, he's adapted.

After adapting, Shengqi finally seized the opportunity and found the landing point of Tian Zhong's movement through advance prediction. He directly knocked the unprepared him out with an elbow.

What followed was a big jump and a heavy hit, forcing the tiger demon back, clearing all obstacles between him and Tian Mi.

Now, he can finally be sweet with Tian Mi again.

Tian Zhong, who was still a little dazed after being hit by Sheng Qi, saw this scene and hurriedly shouted to Tian Mi, "Take your things and leave first!"

"Where to go!"

Sheng Qi let out a low roar, and blood gathered on the giant tower, heading straight for Tian Mi.

He didn't hesitate with this move.

Tian Mi was so frightened that her face turned pale. When Yingbu saw this, he didn't dare to be rude anymore. He braced himself and prepared to take the attack.

At this time, Shengqi's expression suddenly changed. He suddenly drew his sword and blocked it with a horizontal sword.

Immediately afterwards, a sword light suddenly shot out from behind Tian Mi, heading straight for Sheng Qi with a dark purple afterimage.

With a crisp sound, Juque held a very distinctive sword.

The overall sword body is broad, thick and square, with an arc-shaped tip. Below it are three consecutive pairs of protruding teeth. A pair of notches are recessed in the middle of the sword body. The end of the sword body is a dark brown sword grid shaped like a roaring tiger, as well as the same color. The sword's hilt and tiger-tooth-shaped sword pommel.

This sword was familiar to everyone present except Yingbu, because it was the sword of Tian Hu, the master of the farm Chiyoutang, and it was also a famous sword in the sword manual - Hu Po, ranked thirteenth in the sword manual!
  The person holding the sword to confront Sheng Qi was Tian Hu, the leader of Chi You Hall who had just arrived.

Shengqi and Tian Hu looked at each other, it could be said that they were enemies meeting each other, they were extremely jealous!
  Of course, Tian Hu is not Shengqi's biggest enemy, but he played a role in Shengqi's sinking.

And Tian Hu doesn’t have much hostility towards Sheng Qi. In the past, Sheng Qi might have been very hostile when he was the leader of Kuei Hall, but now he is just a notorious abandoned peasant and has become a lackey in the trap. Tian Hu really can’t stand it. Upper eyes.

But now that the two of them are in conflict, naturally neither of them looks good.

After the two were in a stalemate for a few breaths, Tian Hu took the lead in using his strength and pushed the sword to force Sheng Qi back.

"Sheng Qi, do you still have the nerve to come back and compete for the title of hero?" Tian Hu stood still and mocked with a sneer on his face.

In Tian Hu's opinion, Sheng Qi's fight to win the title of hero was a joke. He didn't even consider the other party to be his competitor at all, but only regarded it as a stumbling block.

This is also normal, after all, Sheng Qi is just an abandoned farmer.

Shengqi responded sternly, “I’m just here to get back what is rightfully mine!”

"You were supposed to be dead!"

Tian Hu didn't want to talk too much with Sheng Qi. He choked Sheng Qi and took the lead in killing him with his sword.

Shengqi's Juque is known as the 'Supreme in the World' and is the most fierce, while Tian Hu's Tiger Soul Swordsmanship is also known for its fierceness and domineering. When the two people fight, it can be said that they are tit-for-tat and will not give in an inch.

Tian Hu lives up to his reputation as "Tian has a fierce tiger". Although the Hu Soul Sword is several times smaller than Ju Que, he is not at a disadvantage when he touches him.

As soon as the two of them got together, they started to jingle, and they went back and forth for several rounds, but no one took advantage.

Tian Hu then found an opening for Sheng Qi, straightened up his tiger spirit and stabbed Sheng Qi's heart.

Shengqi had no time to change his moves to block, but he was not at a loss. He grabbed the chain wrapped around his waist with his other hand in time, and deflected Hu Po's attack with the help of the chain. At the same time, he took advantage of the situation and struck back, stabbing Tian with the same giant sword. Tiger.

Fortunately, Tian Hu's tiger soul change move was easier than Juque's. He immediately withdrew his sword and stood it in front of him. He held the hilt of the sword with one hand and the sword body with the other, blocking Sheng Qizhi's powerful thrust.

But the person was still knocked back more than ten steps.

Tian Hu is a man with a good face, and he immediately became anxious when Sheng Qi fought back. He gritted his teeth and glared at Sheng Qi. He stirred up his soul, and the true energy in his body surged. The tiger soul's generous and square sword was immediately surrounded by several circles of rapidly rotating crystals. Lan's sword energy was like a raging storm.

The violently churning sword energy directly tore into pieces the ground pointed by the sword blade, spinning up a large amount of broken soil.

Then he roared and charged at Shengqi without hesitation.

Shengqi was no weaker than anyone at this time. A thick layer of bright red sword energy appeared on the giant tower, and he roared to kill Tian Hu.

In an instant, the two people crossed the distance of more than ten steps between each other, and both Ju Que and Hu Po crashed into each other with an unstoppable attitude.

First there was a crisp clang, and then there was a low and muffled bang.

The red and blue sword energy was all released at the moment of collision, biting and entangled with each other, and finally exploded. The huge air wave carried the remaining sword energy and blew it in all directions, breaking the grass and trees, flying away the sand, and attracting The surrounding trees swayed.

Tian Mi and others even had to turn around to avoid the direct impact of the air wave... and the sand blown over.
