Those Red Hu cavalrymen stopped five hundred steps away from the city wall. Although they could barely catch the arrows they fired, they were already at the end of their strength when they landed. Therefore, Zhou Laosan did not expect this round of arrows to kill the enemy at all. It's just a deterrent. The beast skull shield in the hands of the leader of the red bearded cavalry, Alish, jingled several times and blocked several arrows that fell in front of him. The red-hued cavalry behind him were also experienced in many battles. They raised their eyes to estimate the strength of the arrows, pulled the reins of their horses and stepped back a few feet, causing all the arrows in the sky to miss. A dense row of arrows were thrust diagonally into the sand, with wisps of black smoke rising along the arrow shafts, as if a line between life and death had been drawn five hundred steps away from the city wall. Zhou Laosan, the general guarding the gate at Luoyankou, stood on the observation deck of the city wall, setting up a pergola with his hands, watching the red Hu cavalry in the distance re-form into a long snake formation. These cavalrymen numbered no more than 5,000, and all of them were lightly armed. In addition to carrying shields, sabers, and throwing spears, the cavalrymen only had a pair of light hand crossbows hung on the back of their saddles. The Chihu people did not drag any heavy slings. Machines, crossbows and ladders came over, but they didn't look like they were serious about attacking Luoyankou. "If we were just responding to the four Chihu envoys who had sneaked into Shuo City, it would be reasonable for them to arrive on fast horses. But now that the Chihu envoy is dead, the gate of Luoyankou Xiongguan is locked and impregnable. It stands to reason that after a round of arrows, Alish will order the cavalry to return to the front camp. It is absolutely impossible to reorganize the queue and put them in a position as if they are going to stand in front of the pass. The posture of confrontation comes. Five thousand light cavalry attacking Luoyankou is not much different from committing suicide. What kind of medicine are these red-bearded barbarians selling in their gourds? Zhou Laosan rolled his eyes, turned his head and asked a deacon disciple of Liangzhou Prefecture's Consecration Pavilion who was standing behind him: "Master Immortal, are there any strange people hidden among those horseback riding barbarians opposite?" Leader The deacon disciple of the Consecration Pavilion who was ordered to protect Zhou Laosan looked very childish. He frowned and pretended to be mature and said: "Returning to the general, I can't see any clues at the moment. The strange people and strangers in the Chihu Kingdom are different from our Jiuzhou monks. They cultivate their lives but not their natures, and their every move is incompetent. Yuan Qi followed him in different directions, and if he deliberately concealed his aura, he would be no different from an ordinary barbarian." Zhou Laosan pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Deacon Cheng went after the strange barbarian, but did he find any trace of him?" The deacon of the Consecration Pavilion concentrated on transmitting the message, asked the deacon disciples on the city wall, and then replied: "Senior brother Cheng is fighting with magical powers, fighting barbarians and strangers dozens of miles away." Zhou Laosan asked: "How is the battle going?" Then The young deacon disciple of the Consecration Pavilion glared and sneered arrogantly: "You're just a barbarian, just a chicken and a dog!" When Zhou Laosan heard this, he twitched the corner of his mouth. The young monk was quite confident, but looking at Cheng Lun who was sitting cross-legged on the wall, his body was swaying slightly from time to time, his face was turning green and white, and there was faint sweat on his forehead. He must have met the Hu Yi stranger. Got into a tough fight and may not have the upper hand. But he couldn't refute, so he just nodded and said: "In this case, if the Hu Yi cavalry outside the pass is not retreating, either there are strange people and strangers hidden among them, and they are planning to use evil methods to attack the pass; or they are delaying time, let's see What is the outcome of their strangers and Deacon Cheng?" The young deacon disciple of the Consecration Pavilion snorted softly and said in a deep voice: "I think that since the Hu Yi will not retreat, the general should open the door and order me, Dayong. The cavalry rushed over, killed them all, and taught these barbarians a lesson! When the cavalry returned victorious, Senior Brother Cheng and others also returned with the heads of the barbarians. Wouldn't it be a great victory? " Zhou Laosan smiled and said nothing. , only turned around and continued to look towards the Chihu Cavalry. There was a stalemate here. In the sky fifty or sixty miles to the northwest, Cheng Lun's flying Yaksha corpse and two master deacons of the Liangzhou Prefecture's Consecration Pavilion gradually fell into decline. The flying yaksha who originally worshiped the two monks in the pavilion and Cheng Lun planned to work together to kill the seemingly clumsiest armored warrior on the spot. Cheng Lun ordered the Flying Yaksha Qisha to throw the three long forks in his hand; the cold-faced female cultivator jumped up, flew to the top of the sky, carried her sword in a gesture of hanging upside down from the sky, aimed at the top door of the armored warrior, and struck down; The monk from the Nanxian Sect let out a long roar, gathered all the true energy in his body, pushed out his palms flatly, aimed at the giant white bird and the two foreigners on the back of the bird, and fired a powerful 100-foot Taiyi Golden Light Forbidden Talisman. And he opened his mouth to spit out a beam of light carrying thunder and fire, attacking the armored warrior in mid-air. "But when the armored warrior saw the three killing moves coming, he didn't dodge. He inserted the giant sword back into the sling behind his back, crossed his arms and hugged his chest, and a dazzling golden light burst out between his eyebrows. Another unexplained murmur came from the void, and the light wings behind the armored warrior gathered together and turned into a dense golden light, wrapping the armored warrior's body in it. Three-strand paintThe long fork, the deadly flying sword and monk Zhongnan's magic weapon collided with the body-protecting golden light, but they were unable to hurt the armored warrior at all. The three magic weapons returned in vain and bounced away one after another. Cheng Lun, the cold-faced female sword cultivator and the Zhongnan Immortal Sect disciple who was blessed by the soul, were all shocked. Could it be that this red-bearded armored warrior also carries a third-grade life-saving golden talisman? But under such a series of three strikes, the third-grade life-saving golden talisman was really sacrificed. It also suffered some damage, but when the golden light on the armored warrior dispersed, the wings on his back spread out again, as if he was like a normal person. General, with high morale, he drew out the giant sword from his back and rushed towards Feitian Yaksha Qisha. As soon as the three cultivators in the enshrinement pavilion had a spiritual connection, the monks from the Zhongnan Immortal Sect came in the clouds and stopped the armored warriors; while the Flying Yaksha Seven Kills screamed loudly, leaned forward and shot towards the white giant bird to fight the white-haired man who was casting strange spells. The short old man; the cold-faced female cultivator stepped on the void, stepped on the Gang to fight, the sword skills changed between her fingers, the four-foot Chi kiss broke the evil sword, the sound was like a dragon's roar, turned into a cold light and followed behind Qisha, slashing at the man holding the vine bow. Handsome man. With the exchange of opponents between the three cultivators of the Chongfeng Pavilion, the situation on the field immediately changed. The Zhongnan Immortal Sect monks who faced the armored warrior had the upper hand. Taiyi's golden light forbidden talismans flew out of his hands, beating the armored warrior's left and right limbs, and his pair of light wings were dim. The Eighteen Forbidden Golden Light of Taiyi is not only a fighting magical power that defeats enemies from a distance, but the golden light talisman manifested by the true essence also contains various mysterious restraints, which can make people faint, make the whole body weak, and block the five senses. I saw the monks of the Zhongnan Immortal Sect standing on the clouds in a leisurely manner, with a pair of fleshy palms flying up and down, and the Taiyi Golden Light Forbidden Talisman hit the opponent repeatedly. The armored warrior on the opposite side only focused on resisting the talisman coming through the air, unable to get close at all. But each talisman was not only struck head-on like a thousand-pound hammer, but after he chopped the talisman with his sword, the strands of Taiyi golden light would wrap around the giant sword and armor, and what followed was the forbidden magic. The misfortune. After only a few dozen breaths, the Hu Yi warrior felt that the armor on his body and the giant sword in his hand were extremely heavy, and he could no longer perform martial arts as he wished, and his body fell straight down. After barely resisting a few more Taiyi golden talismans, the armored warrior's muscles and bones were already soft, his whole body was stiff and cold, his eyes were blurred, his body was tumbling, and the world was spinning in his eyes. The monks of the Zhongnan Immortal Sect here are fighting smoothly, but the Feitian Yaksha and the cold-faced female swordsman over there are in trouble. Like the armored warrior, the cold-faced female swordsman¡¯s chi-kissed evil-breaking sword was also trapped by the strange magic from the outside world performed by the white-haired short old man. However, the shackles of the Taiyi Forbidden Law on the armored warrior are invisible, but the flying sword is actually covered with a thick layer of gray rock. Where can I still see that it is a thin and long four-foot spiritual sword? It was simply a piece of gray rock with a radius of one foot, slowly spinning in the air. As soon as the cold-faced female cultivator and the Flying Yaksha rushed twenty feet in front of the giant white bird, the short white-haired old man began to beat the leather drum on his waist with a "dong dong bang bang" sound. He murmured nonsense mantras in his mouth, raised the stone staff high with one arm, and waved it in a circle above his head like a flagpole. Every time he waved it, a circle of gray smoke dispersed. This gray smoke faded into the void, turning the twenty feet surrounding the big white bird into a strange fossil realm, somewhat similar to the Dao Sect's "Ten Thousands of Expanses of Yellow Sand Formation", but it covered a smaller area and was effective. But even more magical. As long as the flying sword penetrates this airspace, the sword light will be like an oil paint wall painting that has been attacked by wind and sand. It will become dim and obscure in an instant. With the naked eye, you can see that the true energy of the flying sword is dissipated. The original shape of the sword was revealed, and even the speed of the flying thrust slowed down suddenly, as if it was stuck in a quagmire. Pieces of stone skin grew out of the sword, covering the entire flying sword layer by layer. And the closer the flying sword is to the big white bird, the faster the stone skin will grow. The cold-faced female cultivator of luck made the Chi Kiss Evil Sword pass five feet in front of the big bird. When she took the spirit sword back to her side, she had to use her strength to shatter a six-foot-thick gray and white stone shell. ????????????????????????? And the mystery hidden in this strange realm that is twenty feet wide is not just as simple as what is seen on the surface. When the gray stone skin grew on the edge of the Chi Kiss Evil Sword, the cold-faced female cultivator felt that the rock that appeared out of nowhere not only made the flying sword dull and sluggish, but also continuously eroded the sword edge. , seems to be able to suck out the spiritual energy in the entire magic sword and turn it into a useless stone sword. And when the stone skin covering the sword reaches five feet thick, the connection between her own consciousness and the spiritual sword becomes intermittent. If it is not there, just a little negligence, I am afraid that this mouth made from the bones of ancient dragon-born beasts will be broken. A top-grade spiritual sword will be lost here. It was not only the Chi Kiss Evil Sword that was restrained by this strange realm. Cheng Lun's demon-crushing corpse soldier Feitian Yaksha "Seven Kills" also walked in front of the big white bird and fled in confusion. When Qisha fell out of the 20-foot range around the big white bird, its entire body had turned into a gray-white statue. It took several breaths of hard work, and thanks to the cold-faced female cultivator, she used her sword to help it break through the stone.When it came out, the solid stone skin covering the whole body was shattered. Feitian Yaksha screamed strangely, and then formed a three-pronged prong and threw it. However, this long prong could reach seven or eight feet in front of the big white bird, and turned into a rough giant rock, smashing to the ground. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????But on the back of the big white bird, there is still a handsome man with miraculous archery skills. With a smile on his face, he watched the white-haired short old man performing magical arts. When the enemy on the opposite side showed a look of helplessness, the handsome man gracefully opened his bow and nocked an arrow. As soon as he loosened his fingers, nine arrows flew out. The cold-faced female swordsman hurriedly took out her flying sword and cut down the three wooden arrows that were shot at her. But the explosive arrowhead forced her to retreat more than ten feet away. The remaining six wooden arrows flew towards Qisha, but with Feitian Yaksha's swiftness, he was unable to dodge all six small wooden arrows. One of the wooden arrows exploded near Qisha's left hip, erupting into a blazing flame. Feitian Yaksha whirled and fell more than three feet away. Although there were no skin or flesh wounds from the blast under his left rib, most of the evil black smoke dissipated from his body. Before Qisha could stabilize his figure, the sharp sound of breaking through the air came closer and closer, and the handsome man was shot with nine wooden arrows. The cold-faced female cultivator swung her sword to save her, but out of the corner of her eye, she could see nine wooden arrows chasing after her. The sound of thunder was heard endlessly, and the sky exploded with flames. There seemed to be an inexhaustible supply of wooden arrows in the quiver behind the handsome man. In addition, his shooting skills were truly amazing. When the arrows were fired, they could appear and disappear, and he could turn around out of thin air. The cold-faced female cultivator and Feitian Yaksha were tired of parrying and dodging. What's even more terrifying is that the white-haired old man is still beating the leather drum on his waist, and the strange chants in his mouth are getting more and more urgent. The strange realm that can turn into rocks is growing step by step. Expand outward. The fighting in the sky is in full swing here, and the Red Hu cavalry outside Luoyankou Xiongguan finally made some movement. The leader, Alish, reined in his horse and stared fixedly at Luoyankou. After about an hour of burning incense, he seemed to have suddenly received some order message. He showed a happy face, raised his hand and waved, and shouted a few nonsense words. language. The Red Hu cavalry behind him suddenly changed their formation, and the long snake formation surrounded them from left to right, turning into a circular formation. The cavalrymen were holding shields and throwing spears, with their horses' heads facing outwards on alert. Zhou Laosan narrowed his eyes and raised his palms. The archers on the city wall immediately raised their bows and nocked arrows, pointing their arrows diagonally toward the sky, ready to launch a second round of arrow rain at any time. Yu Heyun looked far away and saw two red bearded cavalrymen marching out and dismounting in the center of the circular formation. Both men wore leather hoods, making their faces invisible. One of them was tall and seemed to be a guard. He had a dark green carved vine bow slung across his upper body, and a long and narrow black quiver on his back. A few strands of silver-white hair were exposed from the edge of the hood, and there were silver bells tied at the ends of his hair. The other man was short and thin, and his dismounting movements were very unfamiliar. He did not seem to be proficient in martial arts. On this man's body, an unusually thick and wide black leather book was tied across his chest with an iron rope. The thin man jumped off the horse with difficulty and knelt directly on the ground. He carefully untied the chain and spread the black book in front of him. Under the bright sunlight, the pages reflected a dazzling silvery white luster. It didn't look like cloth paper, but pages of silver. foil. This thin Hu Yi man knelt down and kissed the page of the book, then lifted up his sleeves, cut his wrist vein with his pocket knife, and sprinkled his blood on the book and the surrounding ground. Immediately afterwards, he took out a small piece of pale bone, dipped it in some blood, and laid it flat on the open pages of the book. Yu He had a bad feeling in his heart. Look at the Hu Yi man using his hands and feet to retreat a few feet, kneeling on the ground, grabbing the sand with both hands, and raising it towards the sky like crazy. When the thirteenth throws out the sand, a small section of bone on the page suddenly burst into a ball of green phosphorus fire. The fire was so fierce that it turned into a pillar of fire and rushed straight into the sky dozens of feet high. The aura of inexplicable fear filled the air from the pillar of fire. There was a commotion among the soldiers on the city wall, but they calmed down after a while amid the shouts of the captains of each battalion. The guard general Zhou Laosan flew in front of a crossbow, stepped on the machine spring, and shouted sharply at the soldiers on the wall: "Launch the crossbow! Shoot all the crossbow arrows for me!" After the "crunch" With continuous sound, the soft iron machine gun exerted great force, and a total of eighteen pig-iron crossbows as thick as arms were shot from the city wall, flying toward the circular formation of the Red Hu Cavalry with a harsh wind whistle. The green pillar of fire burned more and more intensely, and formed a phosphorus fireball with a diameter of ten feet in the mid-air above the red Hu cavalry formation. The strange firelight reflected the sky clouds in front of Luoyankou Xiongguan into a miserable blue color. The tall guard raised his eyes to see the crossbow arrows flying towards him, stretched out his arm to untie the vine bow, and drew the arrow from him with his right hand.A white light flew out of the arrow pot behind him and turned into a two-foot arrow between his fingers. The bowstring trembled, and the thin arrow flew towards the ferocious steel crossbow.
