But he saw the man turn around, turn sideways and draw the bow again.
He raised his hand and three more arrows were shot out.
An arrow passed through two firebirds, either cutting off their heads or breaking their wings. At this point, all the firebirds seen fell down.
Li Gu's eyes condensed and he looked towards the top of the mountain.
Then he quickly ran towards the mountain.
The painter paused in his heart and stroked his beard.
Then put pen to paper.
Mountain spirits and wild beasts are all in the painting, and they are lifelike, with the last stroke falling on the eyes.
"Roar!!"
The roar of the tiger came from the painting.
Then he saw a fierce tiger leaping out of the scroll and heading straight for the man holding the bow who was coming up the mountain.
Li Gu raised his hand and shot an arrow.
The tiger dodged sideways, and the arrow pierced the trees on the side, but did not hurt the tiger at all. In this mountain, the arrow had no advantage.
The tiger is the king of the mountains, so he is naturally not afraid of it.
"Roar!"
The tiger roared, and a few steps forward, gradually approaching the man holding the bow.
But Li Gu suddenly stopped.
His eyes suddenly became vacant, and murderous intent emerged.
He reached out and pulled out an arrow, put it on the bow, pulled it sharply, and aimed it at the tiger that was jumping back and forth in the mountain stream.
As the hand holding the bow loosened.
The sound of breaking through the air sounded again.
"puff……"
The tiger penetrated behind the tree.
Who knows, the arrow actually penetrated the tree directly.
"Crack!"
The tree seemed to have been split in half and a hole was dug out.
The arrow has not stopped yet.
"puff!!"
After passing through a tree again, the tip of the arrow pierced the tiger's head.
Half of the arrow poked out of the tree, hanging the tiger in mid-air.
With a whimper from the tiger, it lost its breath in the blink of an eye.
"Bang..."
As the tiger died, it turned into a pool of ink and fell down.
Li Gu stepped forward and saw the ink marks on the ground, and immediately understood.
"I see……"
He raised his head and looked towards the top of the mountain.
But he saw the painter, a man with gray hair and a white beard, smiling and looking at him.
The painter put down his pen and drew an auspicious cloud.
Then he stepped forward and floated up with the scroll.
Li Gu quickly drew his bow and tried to knock it down.
Unexpectedly, the painter raised his hand and dropped it, and as he was swiping his pen and ink, a dark cloud arose.
"Crash..."
A light rain fell.
Li Gu was shocked and looked back.
"not good!"
Even if fire fails, rain will also be effective.
It's still two days' journey from the military camp. If the food and grass get wet by the rain, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Hold up the rain cloth! Hold up the rain cloth!!"
The soldiers moved very quickly, but the rain came so suddenly that something big was going to happen.
Li Gu paused when he saw this, but this time he drew his bow instead of striking his sword.
He closed his eyes and let go of his hand at the moment when the raindrops fell on his cheeks.
"stretch!!"
A bowstring vibrated.
In an instant, the rain seemed to have stopped.
And in the blink of an eye, the rain seemed to flow backwards to the sky.
The raindrops fell back like arrows.
And above the sky, the dark clouds seemed to have been cut in half, revealing a ravine, from which light also sprinkled, and rain also separated the grain carts in the mountain stream.
Li Gu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately returned to the grain and grass.
The general dismounted, cupped his hands and said, "Greetings to Mr. Li."
Li Gu waved his hand and simply asked: "Is the food and grass okay?"
"Thanks to Mr. Li, the food and grass are safe."
Li Guy sighed and said, "Hurry up and hurry up. If these people can't succeed, they must have a back-up plan. Let's go as fast as we can."
"yes!!"
The grain truck began to move forward at full speed, without any further delay.
Li Gu returned to the carriage and couldn't help but think of the painter in his mind.
Paintings are real...
What a good idea!
In the same way, a memory also emerges from my heart.
That happened when he was still a bandit when he was a boy. At that time, Mr. Qingshan almost died with a stone.
Only then did he realize that there is heaven outside the sky and there are people outside the world. Later, he went around asking for advice, asking people, martial arts, and immortals. Finally, he came to an enlightenment and obtained this long bow and the method of bow and arrow.
This was the first time that he showed off his talents, but unexpectedly he encountered such a formidable opponent.
The grain truck left the mountain stream.
But after the general took two steps, he felt something was wrong.
"Stop."
After ordering someone to fetch the map, he examined it carefully.
Looking at the road in front of him again, the general frowned.
"This is the wrong way..."
Li Gu asked again when he saw the team stopped.
"What happened?"
"Mr. Li, this road seems to be different from what is shown on the map, and it is also different from what I remember."
Li Gu frowned after hearing this.
He looked carefully and noticed something different. The painter had just invited rain, but the vegetation on the left side of the road in front of him was stained with rain, but there was no trace of rain or dew on the right side.
Li Gu raised his hand and took out the knife from the general's hand.
"Yin."
He strode forward and slashed with his sword.
But he saw that a bunch of weeds had been chopped off, but the crack turned black.
Li Gu stretched out his hand to wipe it off, put it in front of his eyes, and sniffed it again.
"It is indeed Mo..."
With that said, he stood up again and chopped off all the weeds in front of him.
These weeds turned into puddles of ink.
And now there is a road. This road is what is shown on the map.
The general stepped forward and was shocked when he saw this scene.
"Mr. Li, what kind of method is this?"
Li Gu sighed softly and said: "It was done by an extraordinary painter. This is a bit troublesome. You have to be careful along the way."
Li Gu didn't dare to slack off any more, so he simply asked the general to bring a horse and let him lead the way.
Along the way, he was tempted.
Several lies and concealments were discovered by him one by one.
But as they walked, they still lost their way.
The general kept looking at the map. Something was wrong here and nowhere.
But for now, there are half truths and half lies, truth within lies, and lies within truth.
Even Li Gu found it difficult to tell.
At this time, he realized that the painter's power was not in the wild beasts and firebirds, but in the illusions that were between true and false.
"Mr. Li, we have completely lost our way..."
"Why is this so..."
Li Gu couldn't figure it out. He lowered his head and pondered, but his eyes were looking at the shadows of the trees on the ground.
He was stunned again and again, and then reacted.
"sun?"
He raised his bow and shot an arrow toward the sun he saw.
Under the general's disbelieving gaze, he saw that the arrow had penetrated a hole in the sun.
That round of sun was dim, and the broken parts seemed to expose the corners of the paper.
It’s a round of holidays! !
It was also because of this that they lost their way east to west in the forest.
"What about the real sun?"
Li Gu's mind sank, but he didn't understand how the painter did it.
Where did the real sun go?
In a daze, he remembered when the painter left.
That rain!
That cloud!
"So, he did it at that time..."
"It's cloud!"
The painter painted clouds to cover up the real sun, and then replaced it with a holiday, leaving them unable to find their way.
