Juan stood in the air, his face as horrified as the clouds in the mountains, constantly rising and falling.
With that sword strike just now, he was sure that if he hadn't used the escape technique, his opponent would have definitely split him in half. The man who made the sneak attack was falling downwards, looking at him with an indifferent expression.
Bandits are bandits, and they are indeed not good people. Even the leader likes to do evil things. Huan now hates and is angry with this thief named Wu Gen. No wonder Heita Cheng died at his hands. This man is not only vicious, but also very capable.
Suddenly, the figure of the young man who was falling suddenly disappeared. Huan couldn't help but be secretly surprised by such a fast movement, but soon his surprise turned to anger.
When Wu Gen reappeared, he was already at Huan's flying sword. Fearing that his spirituality would be contaminated, the flying sword at this time had been transformed into one by Juan and was flying towards the air.
Just now, Wu Gen's sneak attack shocked Huan's mind, which inadvertently reduced his control of the flying sword, and the flying sword just stayed in the air for a while.
But in just a moment, Wu Gen was staring at him. The broken knife struck the flying sword continuously, causing the flying sword to fall back to the ground, and a series of gaps appeared on the blade.
After experiencing the thunderstorm, most of the rust on the broken knife has disappeared, and it looks like an ordinary hatchet when it is not moving. Once it is activated, the cold and sharp edge is fully visible, and it feels a little painful just by looking at it.
This was a master who couldn't even resist the Sun Eclipse Armor at the bottom of the lake, let alone Huan's flying sword.
The flying sword pierced straight into the earth, only half of it was exposed, and it was still ready to fly out of the earth.
A figure fell from the sky, Wu Gen's big foot stepped on the hilt of the sword, and then trampled it into the soil, leaving only the red sword spike outside.
"Give me the flying sword." Huan was so anxious that he rushed towards Wu Gen. Wu Gen took out the Sky-shattering Bow and pointed the white arrow at the opponent, moving slowly with Huan.
This feeling was like being secretly watched by a beast lurking in the forest. Juan was convinced that if he dared to go down, there would be a risk of death. To protect his sword or his life, Huan chose the latter, flew back into the air, and shouted at Wu Gen: "We have something to discuss, don't hurt my sword."
Wu Gen raised his head and said, "How are we going to discuss this? You need to explain it first."
Juan pointed at the ice men, "You release the sword, and I will release the people. Otherwise, I will turn all your men into lumps of ice."
Wu Gen pulled out the long sword from the soil, and the sword buzzed, seeming aggrieved. This sword actually looks pretty good, but the blade is now as pitted as a biscuit that has been chewed by a child.
"Okay, I promise you, I will release my men, and I will add one more, and retreat. You are not allowed to pursue me anymore." Wu Gen raised the sword in his hand and shouted at Huan.
"Why should I promise you? What's the benefit of doing this?"
"Just because I can break into Heita's house one day, I can spare your life."
After listening to Wu Gen's words, Huan initially felt arrogant, but after looking at the soldiers on the hilltop who had remained motionless from beginning to end, keeping their bows ready to shoot, he suddenly became a little silent. If the Heita family can really withstand such a group of people in a few years, a chill suddenly rises in my heart.
That's all, I'm just a worshipper, a dog that looks after people's homes and homes. There's no need to work so hard, so what if I leave a way out for myself.
"Okay, I promise you, let go of the sword." Juan raised the bronze bowl in his hand.
Wu Gen grinned and let go of the flying sword in his hand. Like a frightened child, Feijian hurriedly turned around and galloped towards Huan.
A ray of red light shot out from the copper bowl and shone on Ling Yun's eight riders. The ice on Zhuo Ke and others' bodies continued to melt, and they soon resumed action. Someone nearby stepped forward to help and helped several people sit on the ground.
Seeing that several people were safe, Wu Gen breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hands in the air, "Thank you for seeing me all the way. It's good to go."
Juan stamped his feet, with a look of shame and anger on his face, turned his head, and flew away into the distance to fight the wind.
"Sir, will this guy come back?" Suoji came closer. Now he no longer regards himself as an outsider, and his every move is like a fearless army.
"Probably not. If he really wants to stay,
If you leave us, you won't leave so easily just now. He hasn't used all his abilities yet. If we want to fight to the death, it will be really difficult for us. "Wu Gen looked at Juan's back, sneered, turned around and walked towards Ling Yun Baqi.
Looking at the trembling people, Wu Gen laughed and said, "Yes, we played well today. Everyone will be rewarded with a jug of wine tonight."
Zhuo Ke and others were also quite excited. The opponent was from the fifth realm. Although the eight people did not defeat their opponents, they fought vigorously with Juan and did not fall much behind. This also proves that if low-level people use the right methods, they can still compete with high-level monks, instead of crushing them one-sidedly.
"It's a pity that Yang Houzheng gave too little poison, otherwise he could have taken down the opponent on the spot." Zhang Wuyang opened his palms, and there were several hair-thick silver needles in his palms, "They are all filled with poison, but because There is too little poison, so I don’t use much.”
Wu Gen carefully twisted a silver needle. No wonder these people looked in the mirror and cast a net just now. It turned out to be to cover up these silver needles.
Thinking about the methods these eight people used against Huan, Wu Gen's scalp felt numb. It was because he suddenly met eight people, and he must have been tricked. They were too cruel and he liked them too much.
"Forget it, when Yang Zheng comes back, I'll let him refine more." Wu Gen smiled and carefully returned the needle to Zhang Wuyang.
After a brief tidying up, the team continued to move forward. After walking less than ten miles, they saw a person staggering in the air, it was Huan who had just left.
His face was swollen like a pig's head, his complexion was purple, and he was covering his stomach with his hands and angrily scolding Wu Gen, "Shameless, unethical, and secretly poisoning me. Give me the antidote. Otherwise...otherwise I will fight for my life today." Even if I die, I will fight with you."
Wu Gen scratched his head and said, "Master Hu Da, what you said is wrong. I wanted to give you the antidote just now, but you turned around and left. We don't know how to control the wind. How can we catch up? Don't worry, I'm fearless. The military always keeps its word, Wu Yang, bring out the antidote, we can't let others laugh at us."
Zhang Wuyang took out the antidote with pain, stretched out his hand and threw it into the air. Juan took it carefully, opened it and smelled it gently, "But is it the real antidote?"
Wu Gen sneered and reached for the Sky-shattering Bow hanging on his waist, "Do you want love?"
Juan was so frightened that he quickly rose to a high altitude and carefully took the antidote. After a while, the bruise on his face subsided a little. Looking at the people marching in an orderly manner in the mountains, I couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Although these people were carrying heavy loads, they walked on rugged mountain roads as if they were walking on flat ground. Moreover, when wild beasts occasionally attacked them, they did not panic. They cooperated with each other and killed the wild beasts in a few strokes. They expertly peeled off the skin and took the meat on their bodies.
Although he has not experienced many battles, Juan can also see that this team is probably not inferior to the cavalry of the Heita family, and in this kind of mountainous area, the fearless army will definitely win in the end.
While his mind was wandering, an arrow shot out from the mountain and passed not far in front of him.
Huan Xiao, the other party wouldn't allow him to follow him like this. Feeling the condition of his body, he flew lower and shouted to Wu Gen: "Wu Gen, I can fool the Heita family's men and horses and stop chasing you. But if we go further, we will pass Zuo Heng. The road is beyond the control of the Heita family.
You had offended Hulan Fuyan, the young master of Lord Hulan's family, and his family had already informed him of your trip to Iron Hand Province. Although Hulan Fuyan has a humble position in the family, there are some families who can't help but show favor and may send troops to arrest you. You need to avoid these people as much as possible. "
Wu Gen was stunned, wondering what Huan meant by this move. Before he could ask any questions, Juan had already left in the air.
Xue Xin and Wu Gen looked at each other and smiled slightly, "There is no need to be alarmed, Master, this person just wanted to show his good will, so he deliberately reminded me. From now on, the people of the Black Tower Family don't have to worry, but just like He said those families along the way are where our real trouble lies."
Wu Gen pondered for a while and then ordered: "The team should try not to leave the mountain. Marching is as painful as possible, but it is better than losing your life. In addition, food must be eaten sparingly. Unless necessary, do not go down the mountain to rob food."
Marching in the mountains is extremely difficult, not only because of the lack of food and medicine, but also because of the miasma, wild beasts, and poisonous weeds that can be seen everywhere, which may cause death.
.
Although Wu Gen's group of men were trained to fight in the mountains when they were training, but as time went by and they were kept in such a harsh environment, even the tough men were a little overwhelmed, and the number of wounded and sick in the team gradually increased.
It's not that Wu Gen didn't want to march on the plains, but as Huan said before leaving, when they arrived on the plains, these families saw Wu Gen and others appearing and surrounded them like wild dogs. Even if they didn't beat them hard, they were disgusting. It can disgust you to death. Gradually, casualties appeared in Wu Gen's team, and more than a dozen men were lost.
In desperation, Wu Gen had to retreat to the mountain again. Except for replenishing necessary food, he generally would not go down the mountain.
On this day, Wu Gen was sitting at the entrance of a cave, staring at the map in front of him, thinking about the next route.
Xue Xin came over and handed Wu Gen a roasted rabbit leg. He hesitated and said, "Fortress leader, we need to rest for a while. If we continue like this, we will be exhausted without the enemy attacking us. "
Wu Gen was silent after hearing this. Even Xue Xin, a man who had always been very strict in managing the army, asked for a rest. One can imagine the fatigue of his men.
After taking a bite of the rabbit leg, it was white meat with no salt at all. Wu Gen looked at his men sitting or lying in the distance, "Okay, find a small place and knock it down so that the brothers can relax."
He turned around and glanced at Suoji, who was constantly looking at the map, "Suoji, you and Ha Ying and the others go out to the mountain to take a look and find a quieter village. Remember, the location should not be too far from the mountain and should be slightly away from other cities. Farther away."
Suoji stood up quickly after hearing this, "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely find a suitable place for you." After saying that, he and Ha Ying hurried out of the mountain.
After a few people left, Xue Xin had already stood up, but turned back and said, "Master, there is something I don't know whether to talk about or not."
Wu Gen smiled and motioned for the other party to sit down, "What makes you, Xue Xin, so nervous? Tell me. You are an old man too. If you have anything to say, feel free to speak up."
Xue Xin thought for a while and then said: "Sir, I always feel that there is something wrong with Suoji. It is really strange that a little bandit hiding in the mountains can understand a map."
"Haha, yes, you have a sharp eye." Wu Gen put away the map with a smile, looking across the rolling mountains, "Suoji, I guess, has some secrets, but since he has followed us, how do you think he has done?"
"He worked hard and never complained, and many times, it was his timely reminders that saved us from a lot of trouble." Xue Xin responded calmly.
"That's right, he has done nothing wrong to us, so we can't feel sorry for him. As long as he doesn't have second thoughts, I am still willing to let him have a place in the Fearless Army. To be honest, I have even thought about what he will do in the future." Wu Gen He leaned against the stone wall, closing his eyes slightly, looking a little haggard.
"More and more people will join us in the future. Who doesn't have some secrets? As long as everyone moves forward wholeheartedly, there is no need to dwell on the past. Xue Xin, I have only realized this over the years. People, you must have a delicate heart. , If you have foolish eyes, don't be too exhausted. If you are too exhausted in everything, your fate will inevitably end early."
Xue Xin was stunned, but without saying a word, he stood up and bowed respectfully, turned around and walked out of the cave, letting Wu Gen rest for a while.
