Li Yun bent down and tiptoed along a row of thorns.
The temperature in the forest was very high and oppressive. After running fast for a while and suddenly slowing down, Li Yun felt as if he had been soaked in a water tank. He was sweating profusely, soaking his clothes. Every few steps he took, he would stop and wipe the sweat from his forehead so as not to affect his vision at critical moments.
Their location was not far from the edge of the forest, so sometimes the sea breeze would blow in, making the dense trees rustle. Every time there was a sound in the bushes, Li Yun took this opportunity to take a few steps forward.
The sound of dead branches and leaves beneath his feet was muffled.
This is a skill Li Yun learned after struggling in northern Xinjiang for several years. Although Li Yun's skill is far inferior to that of his brother Li Ting, he is still accustomed to fighting. When he was in Zhigu Village, he had several lives in his hands, and he did not neglect his martial arts practice when he arrived in Laizhou. If he could launch a sudden attack at this moment, there would be no problem in killing two or three savages.
The wind stopped for a moment, and Li Yun looked at a stone wall two feet away. Wang Bao'er is a little far behind the stone wall.
After a while, Li Yun made the first move, and even though he was entangled, Wang Bao'er snatched him out from behind and killed each one with a knife.
Wang Bao'er is also a ruthless character, and Li Yun has no doubts about his sword skills.
Just as I was thinking of this, heavy footsteps came from the front of the narrow road in the forest.
Li Yun held his breath and concentrated, lying on the ground again. His face was almost touching the ground, and he was accumulating strength with his feet forward and backward. His right hand holding the short sword was placed behind his back so that he could swing it smoothly when he jumped out.
Then he heard a wheezing gasp.
What bad luck, so bad luck, Li Yun said to himself.
That's a hound panting! I was chased by a dog!
He didn't have time to wait for the opportunity anymore and jumped up with a roar.
After crossing the thorn bush, while still in mid-air, I saw a strong hound, and a strange man wearing dirty grass clothes and with hair all over his face stood beside the hound, looking up in surprise. Look at Li Yun.
Where does this person come from? What to do? Li Yun had a thought in his mind, but he also knew that he could not hesitate at the moment of life and death!
Li Yun strode forward, ready to slash with his knife, but the weirdo took two steps back and raised his hands. He was holding the same thing in both hands.
It was a small gift that Li Yun had prepared before, a red box with cakes and a colorful pottery figurine inside.
"You are not here to fight, you are not evil people." The weirdo said every word.
When he spoke, his pronunciation was a bit slurred, as if he hadn't spoken in Chinese for a long time. This is Chinese childish language! He also had an accent that Li Yun was very familiar with. It was either Zhongdu Road or Beijing Road!
"My Healing Game"
Li Yun carefully raised the knife and pointed it at the weirdo: "We are from Shandong! We are here to give gifts to repair it! We are not the Jurchens from Liaodong! Why are you, a man, in Hesihan Pass? You are Are you here to hunt us down, or are you here to help? Are you and those yellow-headed girls just now really a team? "
The weirdo opened his mouth, probably not thinking of how to answer this series of questions.
Not far behind him, a teenage boy ran up. This child was still wearing a swaying leather jacket on a hot day, and his hair was tied with a thick rope. He seemed to be well taken care of. Li Yun glanced at him, and then saw a worried expression on the wild-haired weirdo. Eyes.
"Is this your child?" Li Yun asked.
Just as the wild-haired weirdo was about to answer, the kid saw Li Yun threatening him with a knife and rushed towards him, screaming wildly. No one knew what slogan he shouted, and the big dog sitting in front of the weirdo also got angry in vain.
Li Yun was knocked down by the big fluffy dog, and then his arms were hugged by the child. He grabbed the dog's neck with one hand, rolled over with all his strength, and threw the child away. Before he could take a breath, he saw Wang Bao'er jumping out from behind the stone wall with a knife.
"Don't do anything!" Li Yun and the weird man with wild hair shouted at the same time.
Meanwhile, camp direction.
The savages' attack was no longer in waves, but hundreds of people pressed directly in front of the car camp.
On top of the vehicle, more than a dozen archers were firing their bows and arrows almost crazily. The savages were crowded together and had no armor or shields. Shot to death.
Someone was hit by an arrow in the arm, so he dropped his crude weapons and continued to move forward. Someone was shot through the leg and rolled to the ground on the spot, and then was trampled by many people behind him without any scruples, and was trampled into something like mud.
There were also people who were hit by arrows, and the fine arrow clusters penetrated deep into the belly, or penetrated from the back of the body. They were dead due to such an arrow attack, but the person who was hit by the arrow didn't care at all. He continued to rush forward without even looking at the injury, until his vitality suddenly disappeared and he suddenly collapsed.
In comparison, the person with the arrow in the head suffered the least.
But it was useless, there were too many savages.
Zheng Rui estimated that with another hundred archers, he might be able to suppress the savages' offensive.
Too bad he didn't.
Li Yun had no intention of causing trouble in Fuzhou, so his previous plan was to find a seaside meadow where no savage tribes were inhabited as a pasture. Before the group came here, they had estimated that the number of yellow-headed Jurchens south of Hesihan Pass was about two to three thousand. Counting some yellow-headed Jurchens who were mistaken for Shiwei and Huli Gai Jurchens, it was probably There will be more, so there must be a lot of open space.
But who would have thought that these people would come and kill them as if they were all crazy?
These days, there are so many people who are not afraid of death. Zheng Rui himself struggled to grow up in a military family. His memories of childhood were rarely warm and happy. The adults he met were not well fed or clothed, were bullied, and had to go to war. 's death. Is it possible that people who have soaked in bitter water like bitter water very much?
It wasn't until he joined the Ding Navy that he had land, a home, and the prospect of living a good life. Zheng Rui was thinking about repaying Guo Jieshuai. In fact, before that, he fought bravely every time, so that he could die early and save trouble, so that he could fight for the next life. A good idea.
Zheng Rui is like this. Looking at the appearance of these savages in front of them, their lives are more miserable than those of Zheng Rui. Of course, they are less afraid of death.
But Zheng Rui didn't understand how big a hatred this was? What are they planning?
From dozens to hundreds to hundreds of Jurchens, they kept pressing forward, and the car formation was crumbling. Zheng Rui didn't care to turn around. He only relied on his hearing to hear the long screams of several companions who were guarding the gaps between the vehicles. And right next to him, a large car was slowly overturned inward as dozens of savages shouted and pushed. The archer who was shooting arrows from the car fell to the ground. He was afraid of being crushed to death by the falling vehicle and rolled back crazily.
Zheng Rui kept shouting, trying to get someone to come over and help the vehicle to make sure it didn't tip over. Once the vehicle tipped over, the formation would be broken!
But where are the manpower coming from now? Is there anything to secure the vehicle?
Li Yun and his group came to discuss business, not to fight, so they didn't make all that much preparation!
He was slightly distracted when a skinny yellow-headed Jurchen suddenly jumped up from below and almost bumped heads with Zheng Rui.
The man crawled closer. Zheng Rui was busy dealing with the enemy in front of him and didn't pay attention. The two of them suddenly bumped into each other. Zheng Rui's sword was too late to retract. He could only roar and hit the yellow-headed man with his forehead. Jurchen bumped into it.
Hearing Peng's muffled sound, the yellow-headed girl stumbled to the ground, and Zheng Rui couldn't stand still and kept retreating.
As soon as he retreated, more yellow-headed Jurchens swarmed in.
Zheng Rui screamed, and then yelled: "Ah Duo, you idiot! Your stupid idea is going to kill us all!"
If there were a group of people fighting around him, why was he in such a mess? Even if there are only five more people, the situation can be maintained for a long time!
But there was no one around him. On the contrary, Ah Duo, with a few of his companions, was busy in the car formation, not knowing what he was doing.
This boy is Guo Jieshuai's follower and has an extraordinary status. That's why Zheng Rui didn't stop him when he proposed that bad idea.
But at this moment, Zheng Rui was filled with regret... I really shouldn't have listened to this idiot!
Zheng Rui roared with all his strength, only to feel his head getting dizzy. He held the knife to support the ground and wanted to fight forward, but right in front of him...
Several savages who rushed into the inner circle of the car formation stared wide-eyed and stopped. There were expressions of disbelief on their dirty faces, and some were so frightened that they trembled and fell to their knees.
This expression of surprise or extreme horror spread quickly backwards. Inside the car formation, outside the car formation, and even further away, ferocious savages were screaming and killing each other one moment, and were stunned the next.
Most people stood there blankly, while some dropped their weapons and began to retreat. Some of the savages with weird accessories on their heads, who looked like leaders, were particularly excited. Their eyes kept moving upward, and then they danced weirdly, as if they were praying.
Zheng Rui took the knife and took a few steps forward, assuming a threatening posture.
The savages didn't notice him at all at first, but when they noticed he walked in, they started to retreat in fear. The first few savages who rushed into the car formation even used their hands and feet to crawl out of the car formation.
Zheng Rui himself was also stunned.
He turned around and looked back, only to see several officials holding a thick and long rope.
The rope continued to extend into the air, and Zheng Rui looked up along the rope.
At the end of the rope, about seven or eight feet above the ground, a huge and colorful round object was slowly flying.
"This is a hot air balloon... The one I saw last time couldn't hold people, right? Is this the latest one? Is it so big?"
Zheng Rui has some knowledge. When he was in the military academy, he saw the little kids playing with this thing several times. At the moment, they just muttered, rubbed their eyes and looked again.
There is a basket hanging under the round object. If Zheng Rui remembers correctly, there should be a special coal stove in the center of the basket.
And Ado was standing in the basket, leaning out and laughing.
The colorful pattern painted on the surface of the hot air balloon is clearly a god general wearing armor, with a majestic appearance and clouds floating around him. In the god general's hand, he was holding a huge and ferocious iron bone flower.
This Tieguduo was too exaggerated. Zheng Rui couldn't hold himself tight and burst into laughter.
The sea breeze blew again, and the few people who were holding on to the ropes at the center of the car formation were staggered.
"Get some help and hold on to the rope! Don't let the balloon float away!" Zheng Rui shouted.
Above him, the hot air balloon whirled in the wind.
Wherever the statue faced, the savages knelt down in awe one after another.
