Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Vol 2 Chapter 2179: Accident, powerful enemy?

After Li Zexuan met Zhang Hongsheng, he originally wanted to ask about the development progress of the machine tool, but seeing that Zhang Hongsheng was in a hurry and was still busy so late, he couldn't waste other people's time.

Anyway, from what he could see while walking around the workshop, many of the parts in the machine tool drawings he drew had already been polished by craftsmen. The progress had exceeded his expectations, and there was no need to ask Zhang Hongsheng again. .

In any case, the research and development of machine tools is a huge and complicated project that cannot be completed in a short time. The craftsmen are already working so hard. If he, the boss, asks about the progress, isn't it putting pressure on others?

Uncle Fu had most likely gone back to rest at this time. Li Zexuan had no intention of going to Uncle Fu's office to sit for a while. He was about to leave the workshop and return to Chang'an when he saw a petite figure walking out of the office building of the workshop.

"Xiaoyu'er?"

Li Zexuan, a late-stage Grandmaster, had extremely good eyesight and recognized the identity of that petite figure at a glance. He was surprised.

"Yeah! Sir?"

Li Yu, who was walking with his head down, heard someone calling him. When he looked up, he saw a familiar figure. She trotted over with surprise on her face and said happily: "Sir, why are you here tonight?"

"boom!"

Li Zexuan flicked the latter's head and said angrily: "Don't ask me! Why haven't you gone back so late, little girl? Although the security in Lantian County is excellent, you are not afraid of encountering someone on the road so late at night. Wild beasts and poisonous snakes? There are so many things to be busy with in the editorial office?"

"Yeah~!"

Xiao Yu'er let out a cry of pain, stuck out his tongue playfully, and said, "It's not too late! I just forgot the time while reading the manuscript, and besides, it's not very far from Yunshan Courtyard, so there's no danger, sir. Don't scare me!"

Since Ma Zhou left the editorial office of "Datang Daily" and went to Qingzhou to take up the post of Governor Shi, the burden of the editorial office has been placed on Li Yu's shoulders. This girl often "gets off work" late. For the safety of the little girl, Li Zexuan asked her to live in No. 1 Yunshan Villa. Anyway, the newly built Hou Mansion was built here in Lantian County, and few members of his family lived in Yunshan No. 1 Villa.

"You girl!"

Li Zexuan shook his head helplessly, and then said: "Let's go, I will take you to the foot of Yunshan Mountain, and then you have to return to Chang'an! On the way, you can tell me about the recent situation in the editorial department!"

"Yeah!"

Li Yu responded excitedly.

The two of them walked out of the workshop gate one after another and walked towards Yunshan.

Li Yu hasn't seen Li Zexuan for a long time. She has a lively and active personality, so she kept chattering along the way, such as the interesting things she encountered recently, the good articles she read, and how the workshop became more lively. She asked about the current situation with the editorial department, some and some, and she told Li Zexuan what she thought of.

Seeing that the little girl had returned to her usual liveliness and agility, Li Zexuan was relieved.

The last time I saw the little girl was outside Longmen Pass. At that time, he had just had a big battle with Wu Jie. Li Yu went north alone, met him outside Longmen Pass, and asked a lot about Wu Jie.

At that time, Li Yu was full of entanglements and contradictions.

Because her intuition told her that Wu Jie was likely to know her life experience, but Wu Jie was an enemy of the Tang Dynasty, and she should not have anything to do with him.

At that time, Li Zexuan was actually quite worried about Li Yu's condition. Unexpectedly, after this period of adjustment, the positive, lively and smart girl before was back.

"Sir, is the Tang Dynasty and the Turks about to start a war? When do you think the war will begin?"

"Yes! It won't take long, probably only about three months!"

"So fast? What do you think, sir, is Datang's chance of winning?"

"...Fifty-fifty! Why do you girl care about these things?"

"This is a major matter related to the survival of the country. I am a gold medal reporter of "Datang Daily", so of course I should be concerned! Didn't you say that every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world?"

"...Okay! By the way, after Mr. Ma went to Qingzhou, has any news come back?"

"Hee hee! Sir, you are asking the right person! Uncle Ma just sent me a telegram a few days ago, saying that through his reputation, he has now established a foothold in Qingzhou and is preparing to imitate you, sir, to lead the people of Lantian County The way to get rich is to restore the local people’s livelihood in Qingzhou!”

Talking and laughing all the way, we soon walked out of the workshop and could already see the outline of Yunshan in the moonlight.

But at this moment, Li Zexuan felt a warning sign in his heart. He quickly stopped, pulled Li Yu behind him with one hand, and looked at the road ahead with wary eyes!

Because a person suddenly appeared in the middle of the road, a person shrouded in a black robe!

"...Witch Tribulation?!"

Li Zexuan frowned and stared at the man in black robes in front of him. He recognized the man's identity instantly. After all, he had fought against Wu Jie before, and he knew the latter's body shape and appearance very well. !

No matter how hard Li Zexuan broke his head, he couldn't imagine why Wu Jie would appear here at this time. How dare he?

You must know that since the last incident of Wu Jie sneaking into Yanhuang Academy, Li Er specially sent a team of forbidden troops to station at the foot of Yunshan. As for the workshop, there were troops stationed around it a long time ago. It can be said that at this moment As long as Li Zexuan yells, Wu Jie will be surrounded by an army in an instant!

No matter how powerful Wu Jie is, there is no way he can defeat thousands of well-trained elite troops, let alone Li Zexuan, a late-stage master who takes the lead in the charge!

If the other party appears here at this time, he is completely seeking his own death!

However, a fatal problem is that Li Zexuan is not alone. There is also a little girl beside him who does not know martial arts and has no power to tie a chicken - Li Yu!

If he were alone, he would be absolutely sure to hold Wu Jie back and wait until reinforcements arrived to surround Wu Jie and completely keep him in the Tang Dynasty. But the problem is, if Wu Jie does not respect martial ethics and directly attacks Wu Jie at all costs, Attacking Li Yu and taking Li Yu hostage, Li Zexuan really had no confidence that he could protect Li Yu!

After all, the other party is a real grand master!

A great master attacks with all his strength regardless of the cost. Not to mention that Li Zexuan can't stop him, even if Xuan Qing and the leader of Tianshi Dao, Feng Lingzi, come, they may not be able to stop him!

Once the other party successfully takes Li Yu hostage, even if Li Zexuan delays the arrival of reinforcements, it will be of no avail!

Almost in an instant, Li Zexuan had analyzed the situation in front of him clearly. His face could not help but darken. His right hand was already on the hilt of the Wind Chasing Sword, and he whispered to Li Yu behind him:

"Hurry up and run without looking back. Run back to the workshop and find the defenders there!"

Although there was no chance of winning, Li Zexuan still planned to give it a try. He was not the kind of person to sit back and wait for death! Fortunately, he brought a sword with him when he went out to the Xuanjia Army camp tonight. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have a weapon at hand at this moment, and his combat power would be reduced by 50%, and he would have no chance of winning against Wu Jie!

It was impossible to count on the defenders at the foot of Yunshan Mountain and around the workshop at this time. It was obviously too late. Only when Li Yu was out of danger would Li Zexuan consider joining the army to leave Wu Jie.

"Is he Wu Jie?"

Xiao Yu'er didn't turn around and run away immediately. She glanced at the man in black robe with her bright eyes. She had met Wu Jie once before when the academy was attacked, but when they met again now, she seemed to feel that Wu Jie was a little strange. It’s different from before!

For some reason, an indescribable feeling suddenly arose in her heart. It was complicated, uncomfortable, and seemed to have a kind of intimacy?

In short, she herself couldn't explain her inner feelings at this time.

"Let's go!"

Li Zexuan had his back to Xiao Yu'er, so naturally he couldn't see the little girl's expression clearly, nor did he know what the latter was thinking. He only knew that Li Yu hadn't run away yet, so he couldn't help but urge in a low voice.

"She can't leave today! I'm not hostile today, I'm just looking for something to do with her!"

At this time, the man in black robes across from him suddenly spoke, his voice was cracked and hoarse, it was Wu Jie's unique voice.

"That's not up to you!"

With a "Cang~" sound, Li Zexuan had already pulled out the Wind Chasing Sword, and in a flash, he stabbed towards Wu Jie!

The long sword in his hand drew a beautiful arc in the air, the tip of the sword pointed at the opponent's heart, riding the wind, riding the sword to the nine heavens!

After reaching the late stage of Grand Master, Li Zexuan became more proficient in the use of Taixuan Nine Swords. He was able to make the sword follow his heart and draw the sword faster than before!

"Eh~? Late-stage Grandmaster?"

Feeling Li Zexuan's more proficient swordsmanship and swift speed, Wu Jie couldn't help but let out a sigh, obviously a little surprised.

When he fought against Li Zexuan at Longmen Pass, the latter was only in the middle stage of Grand Master!

You must know that there are very few warriors in the Grandmaster realm, and it is more difficult to break through after the Grandmaster realm. After someone is promoted to Grandmaster, he may not be able to break through to a small realm in three to five years. It has only been so long for Li Zexuan to break through to the late Grandmaster stage. ? How old is he?

What Wu Jie didn't know was that it was precisely because of the battle at Longmen Pass that Li Zexuan got a blessing in disguise. With the help of Xuan Qing, he directly broke through from the middle stage of the Grand Master to the late stage of the Grand Master. If Wu Jie knew about this, he would probably feel even more sad. surprise!

"For such a young late master, your martial arts talent is indeed surprising, but it's not enough!"

"Bang~!"

Although he was slightly surprised, Wu Jie's reaction was not slow. Facing Li Zexuan's swift Wind Riding Sword, Wu Jie drew out the mace on his back and pointed directly at the location where the Wind Chasing Sword would appear next. , obviously he has seen through Li Zexuan's sword technique.

The swords and sticks met, and Wu Jie's seemingly light blow caused the two to emit an ear-splitting sound of gold and iron. Li Zexuan felt a strong force coming from his hand, which made his arm numb and made him take ten steps back. And a familiar yet strange inner breath, carrying an electric current, directly invaded his muscles and veins!

A grand master is a grand master. As soon as they met, Li Zexuan fell directly into the disadvantage!

Although his strength has improved a lot compared to the last battle at Longmen Pass, when Wu Jie arrived at Longmen Pass, he had already gone through several hard battles on Yunshan, defeating Mo Huai, Qiu Bearke, Dugu Xin, etc. With a group of top masters with extraordinary strength, coupled with running away all the way, Wu Jie's internal energy had been severely depleted at that time, and his strength was probably only about half of his peak period, so Li Zexuan was able to fight with him for more than ten rounds outside Longmen Pass and finally Immortal!

Now that Wu Jie has made a comeback again, his strength has not been lost at all, and his combat power is at its peak. Even though Li Zexuan is in the late stage of being a master, the gap in strength between the two is like a huge chasm!

Even if Xuan Qing, a half-step grand master, comes, I'm afraid he will still be far from Wu Jie's opponent!

Grandmasters are just that powerful, otherwise there wouldn’t have been only a few great masters over the past hundreds of years!

Li Zexuan felt bitter in his heart. He didn't expect that the prosperous Wu Jie could be so strong.

But he hasn't given up yet. He still has a trump card that he hasn't used yet. He is planning to use the first seven swords of Taixuan Nine Swords at once, and use the superposition of seven swords to fight against Wu Jie. At this time, Wu Jie takes advantage of the victory and pursues him. Li Zexuan took any chance and rushed forward as fast as light. In an instant, a huge mace struck Li Zexuan's head.

If this stick hits the porcelain, Li Zexuan's head will probably explode directly, and no bones will be left!

"Tai Chi Sword Technique 38 - Phoenix spreads its wings~!"

At the critical moment, Li Zexuan hurriedly retreated. At the same time, he moved his wrist slightly, and the wind-chasing sword was like a swimming dragon, flexibly drawing beautiful arcs in the air~www.readwn.com~ towards the wolf that Wu Jie had smashed down. Li Zexuan wanted to use the skill of Tai Chi to remove the huge force from the mace, but he underestimated the grand master's full blow!

He is strong, let him be strong, the breeze blows on the hills. He can be crossed by others, and the bright moon shines on the river. He is cruel to himself, but he is evil to himself, and I am very angry.

Tai Chi can indeed use strength to fight strength and overcome hardness with softness, but there is a limit!

When the strength gap between the two is too big, it will be difficult for you to borrow the power to restrain the other party from his moves!

This is what the saying goes, one force can defeat ten!

Wu Jie's powerful and heavy blow was not removed by Li Zexuan's Tai Chi swordsmanship. Li Zexuan's jaw went numb for a while, and he was sent flying backwards. However, he tried his best to stabilize his body, his shoes and The cement pavement underfoot rubbed violently, making a harsh sound.

"Pfft~!"

After flying backwards for about twenty steps and finally regaining his balance, Li Zexuan felt a sweetness in his throat and couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"gentlemen!"

Xiao Yu'er had not followed Li Zexuan's instructions and left without looking back. At this time, when she saw that Li Zexuan was beaten upside down and vomiting blood, she couldn't help but ran to Li Zexuan in a hurry and asked anxiously: "Sir, are you okay? Bar?"

"Why haven't you left yet?"

Seeing Li Yu, Li Zexuan was so angry that he couldn't help but shouted in a low voice.

Having said that, he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart, thinking that with Wu Jie's current terrifying strength, it would probably take less than ten moves to defeat him, and Li Yu, who didn't know martial arts, couldn't run very far in such a short period of time, so she There is no difference in the outcome whether you escape or not.
