Chapter 155: Qingshi fell into a trap and was severely injured
Qingshi said goodbye to Jian Ruochen immediately, and wanted to go down the mountain that day. When he said goodbye to Jianyi, he tried his best to keep him, and pulled Jianruo, Jianwu, Jianqian, Jianruochen and others away. They made trouble all night and didn't set off until the next day.
Just after noon on the second day, Qingshi left the mountain gate, released his puppet horse and rode on it, heading straight to Donghai City, the capital of the East China Sea Principality, more than a few hundred miles to the south.
Qingshi galloped on his horse and looked at the sun. He estimated that he would reach Donghai City before dark. Not long after, they embarked on the official road leading directly to the capital. From time to time, they could see some business travelers on the road, so Qingshi slowed down his horse a little.
After running for more than fifty miles, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually became less and less. In the distance, I saw a group of vendors pushing a wheelbarrow a few miles ahead. They stopped to rest next to a big stone on the side of the road. Several people were sitting on the ground or half leaning on the big stone. Above them, there were two young people who were full of energy, laughing and joking around on the official road. Two wheelbarrows were also parked crookedly on the road, blocking most of the road.
Qingshi didn't care. The official way was very wide, and he could get by on horseback. It was just two young men chasing and fighting around the car. Qingshi was afraid that they would be accidentally hit, and he didn't want to raise dust and choke everyone, so he reined in the reins and walked slowly.
Seeing that the group of hawkers were getting closer and closer, several fast horses rushed from behind. The riders on the horses shouted and urged them to come forward. More than a dozen horse hooves were galloping and flying wildly, stirring up dust all over the sky. people. Qingshi frowned and looked back, thinking about whether to retreat to the road when he suddenly noticed a trace of murderous intent.
Just as Qingshi turned around, the group of vendors in front suddenly launched a surprise attack on Qingshi. The two young men who were joking around pulled the wheelbarrow on the road in an instant, and turned on the wheelbarrow toward Qingshi. Suddenly, dozens of short spears with flashing black light were fired from the two cars and shot at Qingshi.
At the same time, the five vendors who were sitting or standing resting all flew into the sky. They waved their hands, and hundreds of various hidden weapons with cold light shrouded the bluestone like a dark cloud.
Six galloping horses came from behind, and the three of them flew up more than ten feet from the horses. Where their arms were waving, there was also a dense cloud of hidden weapons covering the bluestone.
The other three people on horseback were holding their bows and arrows. Five long arrows arrived in front of Qingshi in an instant. One of the men in black robes actually shot three arrows at the same time.
Among all the hidden weapons, the fastest were the three powerful arrows fired by this man, the most powerful were the dozens of short spears, and the most dangerous was a poisonous needle shot from the hand of a white hat vendor.
Although this person's martial arts cultivation level is not the highest among this group of people, his poisonous needle hidden weapon skills are the most powerful. The poisonous needle is hidden in a large number of hidden weapons. It is fast and concealed. It is the most powerful in this wave of raids. A fatal move.
The sudden attack of short spears, long arrows, and all kinds of hidden weapons formed a sure-kill net, leaving no time or space for anyone to escape. Qingshi was about to die on the spot, but just when the powerful curare needle was about to touch his skin. In an instant, Qingshi suddenly disappeared in a flash.
Just hearing a popping sound like beating leather, the horse Qingshi was riding was shot by short spears and arrows and turned into a hornet's nest. At the same time, countless poisonous needles and flying knives, and caltrops and steel cones were inserted into the horse like a hedgehog. However, the protagonist Qingshi who was attacked was not touched by a hidden weapon on the corner of his clothes, and disappeared mysteriously.
As the bluestone disappeared, the sinister and proud sneer of the white hat vendor froze in an instant. He was determined to win this raid. He thought about the possible methods Qingshi could use to deal with the raid, and arranged a magic circle to prevent space movement in advance, so that Qingshi could not use space transfer magic weapons.
A hidden weapon network was deployed that completely covered every blind spot, leaving no room for Qingshi to dodge.
The timing of the surprise attack was carefully arranged so that Qingshi would not have time to detect and dodge in advance.
He was even prepared to take Qingshi's life if he relied on his magic weapon to withstand the subsequent killing move after the sudden blow.
However, he never expected that the bluestone would disappear. In shock, he fell to the ground and froze.
The white hat vendor and several other sneak attackers were stunned, but the knight in black robe who rode up from behind and fired three arrows shouted: "Don't panic, he can't escape from the magic circle."
Another knight followed and shouted loudly: "He is hiding in the horse. The horse is a puppet." This man had extremely keen observation skills. In an instant, he discovered that although the horse was hit by numerous hidden weapons, it neither bled nor neighed. Fall down.
Before the man finished speaking, he saw the horse that had been shot like a hedgehog suddenly started to gallop forward.
The horse was fast, and the people surrounding it moved faster. After the knight reminded them, everyone came to their senses and immediately launched a second wave of attacks.
Three other wheelbarrows originally parked on the roadside were manipulated by three vendors to fire a second round of steel spears. Among the others, two hawkers and three knights fired powerful arrows and hidden weapons again, while the remaining two hawkers and three knights flew away from their horses, leaped forward with long swords and broadswords, and instantly cut out seven or eight staggered attacks. The targets of the vertical and horizontal swords, lights and sword energy were naturally the puppet horse.
There was a loud crashing sound, and the horse was not only shot through more than a dozen holes again, but also cut into seventeen or eighteen pieces of different sizes. Although the horse's body was broken, it still had momentum to move forward and was chopped into pieces. The body of the horse flew scattered all over the ground. It was indeed a puppet rather than a body of flesh and blood.
However, apart from various broken parts, there is no bluestone at all in the horse's body. In fact, there is no space for hiding people inside the horse's body.
This time everyone was really stunned. Everyone gathered around the puppet horse that had been torn into pieces. Everyone was dumbfounded. The white hat vendor felt his cold sweat dripping down.
The black-robed knight who fired three arrows took a breath of cold air, and suddenly seemed to realize something. He suddenly turned his head and looked behind him. Everyone followed his gaze and saw a young man in blue robe standing a few feet away. It was exactly bluestone. Qingshi's whole body robes moved without any wind, and his aura at the peak of the ninth stage of the Yuan Dan Realm was strongly displayed. The hands hanging by his sides were faintly flashing with lightning arcs.
"Who are you?" Qingshi asked coldly, "Why do you want to kill me?"
"Don't panic, everyone!" the white hat vendor shouted, "He is still within our trap, go ahead, kill him!" There was panic in his voice.
"Yes!" the black-robed knight shouted loudly: "He can't break the formation so quickly, he can't run, kill him!" while pointing his sword at the bluestone.
Indeed, Qingshi and everyone are still within the confines of the trapping formation. This is a level four triggered trapping formation. Even if Qingshi's formation cultivation is as high as level five, it is impossible for Qingshi to break out of the formation in such a short period of time.
The people who made the sneak attack set up this trap because they were afraid that Qingshi would escape. Now they saw that although Qingshi had escaped the two previous kills, he was still trapped in the trap. Except for the white hat vendor, everyone thought that the situation was still there. Under the control of their own side, they immediately surrounded and attacked with weapons.
But they didn't know that Qingshi had no intention of breaking the formation and escaping. They didn't realize that the trap that trapped Qingshi also trapped themselves. It's good to lock a beast in an iron cage, but it would be a tragedy if you were in the cage yourself.
Seeing the people surrounding him, Qingshi, who was already ready to attack, roared angrily: "Five Crazy Thunders!" He raised his right arm and punched with all his strength, only to see five flashes of light forming on his fist after one punch came out. The shadows of fists glowed with blue lightning arcs. The shadows of the fists instantly grew more than ten feet long. Each shadow of the fists became as big as a wheel. Five huge shadows of fists struck the crowd in a fan shape.
This punch is the second form of Qingshi's heaven-level martial arts - the magical power of the Heavenly Thunder Hand. There are seven moves in the Heavenly Thunder Hand. The first form, 'Thunder Covering the Earth', has already been mastered by Qingshi. It was the one he used to defeat Jiang Chenliang. A formula.
There are three levels of this second style. Qingshi currently masters the first level of 'Five Crazy Thunder'. After a punch is punched, the shadow of the fist is divided into five. The second level of 'Seven Crazy Thunder' can be divided into seven. A fist shadow, the third level of 'Crazy Thunder Nine Appearance' can separate nine fist shadows, this style is the most effective for dealing with enemy group attacks.
Seeing Qingshi's punch, everyone surrounded was frightened. There were eight people who were directly in contact with the shadow of the fist. When these eight people saw the punch coming, they had no time to dodge, so they had to exhale and fight with all their strength.
There was a loud bang, and a huge energy shock wave stirred up dust all over the sky. The eight besiegers, without exception, were kicked out and flew outwards. Three of them suffered less force and hit the trap after flying out. The energy barrier of the array was blocked, and they fell to the ground without knowing whether to live or die, but their bodies were still flashing with tiny arcs of light.
The other five besiegers who were directly affected by the force flew backwards, and after hitting the energy barrier, they actually broke through the barrier and fell outside the range of the magic circle. Five big holes were knocked out of the magic circle barrier, and that was it. It was broken open by force.
Each of these eight people had blood spurting from their mouths and had broken muscles and bones. However, they were struck by lightning and had their beards flabby and their faces charred, and they were dead before their eyes.
Among the other five people, the vendor in the white hat did not participate in the siege at all. He held an apple-sized black ball tightly in his right sleeve in his right hand, hiding in the distance, watching the scene nervously.
The black-robed knight deliberately stayed behind. Seeing that the situation was wrong, he immediately flew into the air to avoid the impact of Qingshi's fist shadow. The other three people, who had poorer cultivation and slower movements, were swept away by the aftermath of the fist shadow. They all flew backwards and fell to the ground. Apart from being stunned by fright, they did not suffer much internal injuries.
Qingshi didn't feel well after this blow, as more than 80% of his body's energy was drained. At the same time, the strong collision also caused a faint pain in Qingshi's internal organs. He took three big steps back before barely standing still, panting slightly to adjust his breathing.
Seeing the power of Qingshi's punch, the white-hatted hawker wanted to get out of the hole and escape immediately, but he noticed the condition of Qingshi at a glance. After a moment's hesitation, he gritted his teeth and took out the black ball in his hand. Throwing it at the bluestone, he ducked out of the hole and escaped far away. Seeing this, the black-robed knight cursed: "Damn it!" At the same time, he soared into the sky again, his body penetrated the hole in the fading formation, and flew back outwards.
Qingshi was trying his best to adjust his breathing when he suddenly felt a huge danger approaching. At this time, he could no longer use the trick of disappearing on the spot. He only had time to activate the protective clothing with a thought and shouted: "Cover!"
At this time, the black ball had flown less than ten feet away from the bluestone, and burst with a soft pop. There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a white light as bright as lightning illuminating the world. When the flash lit up, The broken ball sent out a circle of light black energy ripples, which instantly brushed over the bluestone and continued to spread outward. The arc-shaped energy ripples rippled and spread for a full ten feet in all directions, until they hit the fading trapped energy. The formation barrier gradually disappeared, and the trapped formation barrier completely dissipated.
Qingshi groaned, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, his body shook slightly, and there was a soft sound of jade breaking all over his body. After staggering back three or four steps, he finally couldn't hold on anymore and slowly sat down on the ground.
At the critical moment, Qingshi's jade cotton armor protected his body. This jade cotton armor was made by Qingshi after imitating an armor he had previously auctioned. The material used is jade cotton, which is extremely rare. It is as soft as cotton cloth, but will instantly become as hard as jade when exposed to strong attacks.
This protective armor has a better protective effect than the previous one. In theory, it can withstand all attacks, but it is disposable and will break after use.
The ball's attack method is energy waves, as if the energy cannon equipped on the battleship has been used to bombard the bluestone at close range. Although this jade cotton armor is magical, its protection is mainly against substantial objects such as swords, guns, swords and halberds. Weapon attacks, therefore, all energy attacks on the ball cannot be resisted.
Qingshi's body withstood about 30% of the black ball's energy attack wave. Thanks to the powerful protective power of the nine perfect qi, although it was not fatal from one blow, six of Qingshi's meridians were still broken, and his internal organs were damaged. No one is hurt.
The three killers who fell to the ground were also swept over by the ball's energy wave. However, without exception, all of them had their meridians cut off and their internal organs shattered. They died immediately.
The white hat vendor and the black robed knight who fled far away saw Qingshi's condition. Although they were surprised that Qingshi did not fall dead on the spot, they also knew that Qingshi was definitely seriously injured at this time and had no fighting ability anymore.
