Chapter 330 Chapter 12 Blood Stained Wasteland

Kou Zhong galloped across the long grassland, the drizzle had just stopped. There are sword shadows and sword lights everywhere, people's voices are boiling, and more and more torches light up the dark sky before dawn. He successfully defeated and destroyed a group of Li family warriors by means of sneak attacks, ambushes, and wandering fights. He also killed and wounded a large number of fighters of the other side, and his clothes and swords were all stained with the blood of the enemy and himself. The most fatal thing was a spear pierced from his right back. If he hadn't unleashed his strength in the face of danger, it would have penetrated straight into the atrium. However, even if he dodged in time, he would stab the opponent three inches, injuring his muscles and muscles, and he was forced to use the knife with his left hand instead. .

At this time, he had already stopped the bleeding, but he was still in pain. Now he had the heart to run away to save his life.But looking at the situation in front of him, this wishful thinking did not work. As for Li Yuanji's intelligence, he couldn't help reevaluating it. If the mobilization of the Li Clan Wutu in front of him is all directed by Li Yuanji, this person's ability must not be underestimated.Under Kou Zhong's negligence, he has already laid a net to kill Xu Ziling and him. For this reason, Kou Zhong's murderous intentions flourished, but his mind was as calm as ever, and he kept accumulating skills, preparing to escape suddenly.Up to this moment, he can still use the body skills he just learned to prevent the enemy from encircling him time and time again.If he falls into the encirclement net, once this happens, it will be the time for his death.

Suddenly, the wind resounded in front of him, and a group of more than ten Li family soldiers flashed out from behind the long grass taller than a person, and met him head-on. Kou Zhong didn't say a word, first he made a move of "Strike Qi", the knife turned into a Changhong, and the man followed the knife, and passed the leader of the opponent with a "clang".The man didn't even have time to block, he only felt the light of the saber flash like lightning, his vision went dark, he was so angry that he died, he didn't know where he was hit. Only a slight difference in reaction determined the fate of this group of Li Clan masters.

When they were trying to fight back, Kou Zhong relied on the ingenious movement of the positive and negative energy in his body to sneak into their formation with unfathomable high-speed movements, stepping on the gaps in their formation with every step, creating many illusions. The wave of swords made them impossible to defend and impossible to attack.Every time he wanted to fight back, Kou Zhongzao changed his position so that they would instead attack their own partners. "choke"! One person with an ax was chopped off by Kou Zhong and flew nearly ten feet away from the ground, falling to the ground and lying dead.However, it also affected the wound on his right shoulder, under the severe pain, Kou Zhong couldn't help but relax a bit, it was such a slight miss, and another knife mark was added on his left thigh, which shows the intensity of the battle.

Kou Zhong's murderous intent became more intense, he took a deep breath, and the sword's light increased sharply, and immediately two people were hit by the attack and dropped their weapons and fell down. The enemy saw that he killed four people in a row in the blink of an eye, with such ease, they were all terrified. Three of them spread out to avoid the sharp edge, and at the same time released fireworks and rockets, hoping to call for help. Kou Zhong knew that he was at the end of his battle, he seemed to have the upper hand, but in reality he was unable to wipe out the remaining eleven enemies, he dragged his knife and beheaded one more person, then quickly escaped, a few flashes and tumbling, the pursuers The soldiers were left far behind.

Sweeping around, the torch light is all around, which means that he is deeply trapped in the enemy's net, and at worst, he doesn't know which direction to go to is the best way.If morning comes, he will be even more unlucky. Suddenly, more than a dozen torches lit up not far in front of him at the same time, revealing his fine details. Kou Zhong was startled, squinting his eyes to look at the blinding light of the torch, he saw that the surrounding long grass more than 20 feet wide had been cut down and turned into an open space without obstructing the line of sight. The place where the torch is held high is a small roof, on which there are vivid figures, the leader is dressed in silver clothes, and is particularly eye-catching when surrounded by a group of Li family warriors, only 30% to 40% of his face looks like Li Shimin, no need to guess Knowing that the other party is Li Yuanji.

He is taller and taller than Li Shimin, but there is a vicious look in his brows that Li Shimin doesn't have, so although he looks handsome, he always makes people dislike him.The place where the demeanor is concentrated is impeccable, and the demeanor of standing horizontally shows the demeanor of a real master. Kou Zhong looked at him, his lightning-like gaze also looked at Kou Zhong across a space of more than twenty feet, he laughed and said: "Brother Kou is indeed extraordinary, Yuan Ji admires it very much, look at the arrow!" As soon as the last two words came out, more than a hundred archers who were ambushing in the grass around him rushed out, and the crossbow arrows in their hands were fired at the same time, and the sound of chi chi piercing through the air filled the sky and the earth.

Kou Zhong resorted to the ability of quickly shifting shape and breathing, and quickly moved nearly ten feet horizontally, dodging the arrow. The crossbow rang again, another group of nearly a hundred arrows came out from the side where Kou Zhong dodged to shoot towards him. Kou Zhong called his mother in his heart, he knew that if he dodged again, he would fall into the siege of the enemy, but no matter how strong his martial arts and saber skills were, he could not resist hundreds of powerful arrows shot from the crossbow. The man in danger was quick-witted, he fell to the ground first, and when he was barely touching the ground, he put his feet on the ground, flew forward like a cannonball, and shot towards the archers.

The powerful arrows passed by like locusts above, and it was extremely dangerous. When the horn sounded, all the archers shouted, and after shooting the first round of arrows, they retreated, and more than 20 warriors of the Li family gathered in the long grass behind them, and faced Kou Zhong aggressively. All of a sudden, Li Yuanji's master warriors were all over the place, approaching Kou Zhong from the hillside and the ambush. At this time Kou Zhong shot nearly five feet away, before he was about to meet the group of more than 20 warriors gushing out, he bounced off the ground. Looking around, there are at least 30 to 40 masters surrounding him, the power of the enemy and ourselves is too great, no matter how strong his fighting spirit is, he also knows that this battle must not be tried lightly.

Now is the only moment to escape, if you get entangled, it will be a game until death. The question is where to flee. With a thought, he stood up and threw himself at the top of the mountain where Li Yuanji was. The enemies were greatly surprised, shouting and scolding again and again. Li Yuanji's expression also changed, and with one order, more than a dozen warriors from the left and right were all dispatched to kill Xiapo. This work not only fully shows Kou Zhong's extraordinary courage, but also shows his amazing intelligence in the face of danger. Because no one, including Li Yuanji, would have thought that he would dare to attack the coach's position, so the top of the mountain was also the weakest place in the encirclement.

That is the strongest point, but also the weakest point, the method of Shen He Yi Sword. As long as he can pass Li Yuanji's level, he can escape from the gap in the net. In the melee, the enemy is the most threatening archer, and there is no room for use. "Clang!" After Kou Zhong's feet hit the ground, he forced his way between the two opponents. The opponents spun around at the same time, spattering blood and fell down. . When the man was falling, Kou Zhong tried his best to reach out his right hand, grabbed his chest, and threw it up, the scorched wound on his right back burst open immediately, and blood gushed out. He still had time to pay attention, so he stood up, avoided the enemy's weapon, and the first to catch up with the enemy who was thrown high at a height of five feet, and the lightning reached out to grab his ankle, just to borrow a little bit Gathering the strength of the upward momentum, he changed direction, traversed a long distance of more than ten feet, and flew straight through the sky four feet above the heads of more than a dozen masters who rushed down the hillside, and threw it at Li Yuanji who was at the top. Li Yuanji shouted wildly, and the spear in his hand turned into thousands of lights and shadows, and attacked with all his strength. Kou Zhong felt lucky. If Li Yuanji disregarded his own safety and jumped into the air to meet the attack, the opponent was ready to wait, but he was exhausted after a long battle, and he almost exhausted his true energy in the few blows just now, before he had a chance to recover, the result of the battle must be his Forced to fall back and fall into the enemy's siege, it was over. But although Li Yuanji's marksmanship was fierce and he showed astonishing skills, he obviously refused to take the risk. In fact, it's hard to blame him, because under normal circumstances, such a firm hold on the ground should be enough to cut Kou Zhong to death, but Kou Zhong has the ability to quickly shift shape in the air and take a breath. Kou Zhong took a sharp breath, stretched his hands to vibrate the air, bent straight and solid like a bat under Li Yuanji's eyes, and just flew back, bypassed Li Yuanji, and fled to the hillside behind him. Tuli staggered and rolled to the ground, unable to get up again. Xu Ziling lifted him up from the Zhuodi in the sparse forest and sat him down, pressed his palms on his vest, and poured in the little remaining qi to heal his wounds. After Tuli regained his breath, he sighed, "Ziling, let's go!" Xu Ziling withdrew his palm and said decisively: "Don't say such things again." Tuli looked up at the middle sky, and a black spot under the sun was crossing and flying in a special way, Ruo smiled and said: "We have no way to get rid of the enemy eagle's pursuit at high altitude, we will die in the end, why don't I lure the eagle away , that Ziling will still avenge me in the future." Xu Ziling felt the desolation of being judged to be a hero, and shook his head with a smile: "There is no way to deal with this thing, but the time has not come. In fact, we have successfully left the enemy behind. The most urgent thing now is to go to Xiangyang City to fight the bandits. Zhong Huihe, it’s useless to think about other things.” Tu Li said: "With my current state, I don't even think about arriving in Xiangyang in the middle of the night. The enemy will definitely catch up with us before then, alas! Let me stay!" Xu Ziling suddenly turned aside and said, "Why did Kang Jiaoli form a gang with Li Yuanji!" Tu Li was silent for a moment, then said: "This is really a poisonous plan by Jie Li and Zhao Deyan to deal with the Li family." Xu Ziling was astonished. Tuli continued: "Seeing the increasing power of the Li Clan, Jieli felt worried, so Zhao Deyan proposed a strategy to divide the Li family, and instead fully supported the Li family's prince Li Jiancheng and his family to help him reject Li Shimin. If Li Shimin can be removed Li Shimin, who has the most powerful family and the most prestigious reputation, the power of the Li Clan will be destroyed by itself, and the chaos in Middle-earth will continue, and we can reap the benefits of the fisherman." Xu Ziling was stunned, and frowned again: "But it still doesn't explain why Li Yuanji dared to deal with you openly." Tu Li smiled wryly and said: "Because I am the only opponent of this vicious plan, and Brother Shimin and I have a deep friendship, how can we turn our guns on him. Also, I hope that Brother Shimin will gain power and help me to fight against him. Jieli's oppression, Li Yuanji regards me as a thorn in the side, it is inevitable." Xu Ziling wanted to distract him at first, but he heard such far-reaching things, so he said after a while: "Come on! Let's continue on our way." Tu Li asked back: "Didn't brother Ziling just say that there is a way to deal with the beasts in the sky! But why did he say that the time has not yet come!" Xu Ziling leaned into his ear and said something, Tu Li immediately cheered up, stood up and said: "If you don't die, how can anyone want to die! Anyway, people are chasing after me now, I have a way, or But join up with Kou Zhong as soon as possible, then it will not be too late to carry out brother Ziling's ingenious plan." Kou Zhong hid in a hidden place in the mountains and forests, stopped all thoughts, and tried his best to gain time to adjust his breath and recover. After escaping from the enemy's siege, he ran nearly a hundred miles in one breath, running non-stop for two hours, deliberately depleting the true energy in his body until there was no trace left. This is a risky strategy, he estimated that if Li Yuanji's people want to find him as an escape expert, they will not be able to do it in a short time, and they may even lose their clues to track him down. Break and then stand, lose and then succeed. The strange innate qi synthesized from "Longevity Jue" and Heshi Bibi has this kind of strange characteristic. Recalling his narrow escape in the sea and the fierce battle with Song Que, he recovered faster each time, and he became more determined to take the risk. After sitting down for less than half an hour, he knew the right way to choose. A gust of true qi accumulated quickly, at first it was just as subtle as a gossamer, but it gathered into a stream in a flash, oscillating and agitating among the meridians, which made him have the surprise of regaining a new life. It has been nearly two hours of breath adjustment, and I am about to complete my practice. All the wounds on my body have healed, but the shoulder injury is too severe, and I still have a dull pain. The sun dipped above the western hills, and the temperature gradually became colder. If you walk another night, you can reach Xiangyang in the Ming Dynasty. carry on! How are those two boys good or bad? At this moment, he heard Tuli's whistle coming from seven or eight miles to the left. Kou Zhong came to Xu Ziling, who was crouching behind an old pine tree on a cliff more than 50 feet high, watching the starry night at Guangyuan's field.Now that it's winter, the mountain wind is blowing, if not for the two people's profound skills, they would not be able to survive. Xu Ziling said: "Fortunately, we learned the method of anti-tracking from Lao Ba, otherwise we would not be able to escape the enemy's pursuit this time. Those Turkic people are all experts in tracking. I can see their movements clearly from here. Chu." Kou Zhong said: "Did you see the eagle?" Xu Ziling said: "The eagle is resting on Kang Jiaoli's shoulders, with a hood on, it looks weird." Kou Zhong said with a smile: "Maybe the eagle's eyes were hurt by the fireworks, ha! It's really wonderful." Xu Ziling asked, "How is Khan's injury?" Kou Zhongdao: "He has serious internal injuries and external injuries. Fortunately, my energy has recovered, so I can do my best to help him heal his wounds. Now he is at the critical moment of performing energy. As long as he has one more night's work, he should be able to recover tomorrow. In a state of life and vitality." Xu Ziling sighed: "Thinking that we would share weal and woe with brother Fenghan's enemies, this trip can be said to be a bad start, so we left Jingling, and then someone sneaked up on us, all three of us were injured." Kou Zhong said indifferently: "As long as you don't die, that's all. Now I can't bear others' bullying and oppression. I can't bear the tone of Li Yuanji's cooperation with the Turkic people to deal with us. I'm not joking. Yes, no matter how many people and power he has, as long as I keep my enemies in the dark, I can make him look good." Xu Ziling said: "You are going to collect treasures now, not to fight against others. If the Turkic side did not owe the 'magic commander' Zhao Deyan this time, and Li Shentong on the side of the Li family did not come, I am afraid we would have died. In fact, you should be grateful to Li Yuan Ji is right, if he replaces Li Shimin, it will make you feel better." Kou Zhongdao: "Why didn't Zhao Deyan come? Killing Tuli is the top priority for him. Otherwise, let Tuli return to the territory, maybe why the Eastern Turks split up again! Hey! It's the Eastern Turks or the Eastern Turks, Ha! How awkward it is to say." Xu Ziling reminded: "Although the enemy came fiercely last night, because they lacked real super masters, they barely counted as Li Yuanji and Kang Jiaoli, so although there are many people, they still gave us a new understanding. Lightweight skills and coordination with the terrain, successfully slipped away. But after this battle, Li Yuanji and Kang Jiaoli should know their own shortcomings, and they will not be so easy to deal with when they meet again." Kou Zhong said happily: "I know this. Sometimes my words will be exaggerated, but I will never be so stupid as to belittle the enemy. In fact, Li Yuanji's entire arrangement last night, from blocking the river head-on to the battle in the dense forest, was logical , Every time we almost get rid of us. It's a pity that the difference between success and failure is such a thin line. Alas! I almost forgot Yun Shuai, where is this Persian guy going!" Xu Ziling said: "The higher the lightness skill, the better at the way of detection. If Yun Shuai knows that Jieli wants to kill Tuli, he may turn to protect Tuli's life. The internal struggle of the Eastern Turks is more intense, and the Western Turks are more likely to be killed. favorable." When he said these words, he reached out and wrote the words "Yun Shuai is here" on Kou Zhong's palm. Kou Zhong also had a warning sign in his heart, and he didn't notice the visitor until he dived to a pile of rocks on the cliff. It can be seen that the lightness kung fu is very good, no wonder Xu Ziling guessed it was Yun Shuai. And what Xu Ziling just said is even more meaningful, I hope Yun Shuai understands, and because of the interests, let Tuli go. Someone suddenly appeared in a place they thought was extremely hidden, which naturally dealt a great blow to their confidence.But the biggest worry is that Tuli is performing exercises somewhere behind the cliff to heal his wounds. If he is disturbed and will fail, he may never recover. It must be as simple as starting over from scratch.Of course, the two of them hoped that they could delay as long as possible, and it would be ideal if the other party stayed in the hiding place and listened to them talking for a whole night. Suddenly, a charming smile pierced the tranquility of the cliff. Under the stunned confrontation between the two, a charming Persian beauty with chestnut hair and brown eyes jumped onto the cliff, showing off her moving body wrapped in tight night clothes. In front of the two of them, the youthful pretty face seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and the big wild eyes looked at the two of them. Xu Ziling was surprised that it was not Yun Shuai but his beloved daughter Lianrou who came.Before he had a chance to speak, Kou Zhong said calmly: "So it's Princess Lianrou who came here, the princess is really amazing, she actually found a way to come here." Lian Rou frowned and sized Kou Zhong up and down for a while, then said with slight displeasure: "What are you doing! You speak fiercely, so I won't answer you. If Ziling asks me, people will answer." Xu Ziling felt a great headache. As early as in the dungeon of Qingyang Temple in Chengdu, he had experienced her seemingly innocent, but actually cunning, fox-like temperament and methods.Listening to the tone of her voice now, I don't know what kind of gimmick she is playing.Kou Zhong is relieved, Lian Rou should not have found Tuli, otherwise he wouldn't waste time going up the cliff.Then he called Xu Ziling to ask about Lianrou. Although Xu Ziling felt that he was at a disadvantage, he had no choice but to humbly ask Lian Rou for advice. Lianrou showed a smug expression, and suddenly she pursed her lips and screamed, and the sound of wings flapping came from the sky. The two suddenly realized that they blamed themselves for being negligent, and only paid attention to Kang's sharp eagle, but they forgot that Yun Shuai was from the West Turks and used to use the eagle as a spy. The harpy eagle dashed down from high altitude, brought a gust of wind, and suddenly broke through the air and landed on Lianrou's fragrant shoulders. The deep and sharp eagle eyes glared at the two of them. Kou Zhong was surprised: "This eagle is smaller than Kang's scabbard, and its coat color is also darker. Is it a different species?" He deliberately mentioned Kang Siaoli to test Lianrou's reaction. Lian Rou stroked Ying'er with her hand, with a look of love and compassion in her eyes.The beautiful spirit eagle is standing on the high cliff under the starry night, and her clothes are fluttering in the wind. Xu Ziling felt very disturbed, Lian Rou and the others were enemies but not friends, there was no reason to call Yinger down and give them a good chance to kill the eagle. This woman's intelligence is not inferior to that of Houhou, so there must be a lot of meaning in doing so, but he can't grasp it for a while. Lian Rou replied after a while, as if deliberately delaying time: "This is a falcon that is only produced in Western Turks, and of course it is different from the ones raised by Eastern Turks." Xu Ziling's heart moved, and he said in a deep voice: "Dare to ask Princess Lianrou, is this honor coming here?" Lian Rou was stunned and said: "My father? What is 'your father'? His Chinese is not very good! Ziling, you must have a heart of pity and tenderness, and try your best to accommodate him." Kou Zhong came to his senses, knocked out Jing Zhongyue with a "clang", laughed and said, "Good girl, you're playing tricks on us. Calling Falcon down like this is clearly telling your father where we are. Anyway, you are not the first!" If you capture someone alive once, you can't compete to be captured again!" The powerful saber energy rushed towards Lianrou like a frenzy. Lianrou showed a look of disdain, sent the falcon high into the sky, touched Xiaoman's waist, pulled out the soft sword wrapped around his waist, shook it in the wind, straightened it, pointed at Kou Zhong, and countered his terrifying saber energy. Xu Ziling followed the falcon rising into the night sky, and saw that it not only whirled rapidly, but also kept croaking. Kou Zhong was very interested in Lianrou's soft sword, and said with a smile: "Can such things be used for fighting?" While speaking, he slashed out with a knife, faster than lightning, and hit Lianrou's sword. "when"! To Kou Zhong's surprise, the sword, which was supposed to be soft and wrapping around the waist, made a reckless move against his Jing Zhongyue without any tricks, and sparks flew everywhere when the sword touched. Lianrou flew backwards, not behind the cliff. When the two rushed forward, Lianrou stood on a huge rock that was lower than the top of the cliff, and said with a charming smile: "He may not be as good as you in other skills, but he is definitely not inferior to the two of you in lightness skills, do you want to come?" How about playing hide-and-seek with others?" The two are now sure that Lianrou came here alone, and they have not found Tuli's hiding place yet.But this good scene can't last long, when Yun Shuai and Zhu Can's people arrive, it will be their doom. Kou Zhong leaned closer to Xu Ziling's ear and said, "Ignore how hard it is, but capture her before Yun Shuai arrives, that's the only way out." Before Xu Ziling could answer, a cold snort sounded from the mountainside. When the two were screaming, another cold snort came again, the person who came had already reached the cliff, it can be seen that the speed of his movement was astonishing.
