Looking at Lao Si, who was finally injured and vomiting blood under his own attack, Tian Jihong finally felt relieved. He knew that such long-range harassment had finally recovered the disadvantage of his previous serious injury to his left arm. If the opponent If it hurts your heart, if you continue to consume like this, you should already be sure of victory. It's just that the battle in front of him is not over yet. As an experienced bandit, Lao Si, who was injured and fell to the ground at this time, naturally understands this truth. Seeing that the situation is over, he already has the idea of escape. As the saying goes, there is no need to worry about leaving green hills without firewood. To him, nothing is as important as his own life. Defeat at the hands of an unknown person is nothing. At this time, how to save his life is the most important thing.
Tianjihong was naturally unwilling to give the enemy such a chance, so he picked up a smaller stone from the side and threw it at Lao Si, and he also ran towards the opponent's position. At this time, he could see that the opponent no longer had the strength to use the previous sword skills and was anxiously looking for a way out. After gaining the advantage, he no longer needed to escape. Now was the best time for him to capture the opponent at close range. At this moment, there is still a distance between the two sides. Once such a good opportunity is missed and the fourth child escapes, even if he is faster than his opponent, it will be very difficult to catch up with him in this dark night, especially It would be even more troublesome if that guy tried to catch Feidi.
The third stone thrown was just to hinder the opponent's escape and create time for Tianjihong himself to quickly approach. The fourth man who was kneeling on one knee could no longer swing the sword. Fortunately, after retreating more than ten steps, the distance between him and Tianjihong further widened; the stone thrown by Tianjihong was still in the same position as himself when it landed. There was still a distance of tens of centimeters, which gave him a chance to get up and dodge in time. But at this moment, looking at the menacing figure running towards him, Lao Si could no longer care about so much. Lao Qi, who was still unconscious not far away, had no time to look at it, so he turned around and ran away towards the grass behind him as hard as he could for his life. , trying to interfere with Tianjihong's vision with the help of weeds.
When Tian Jihong rushed to the location where Lao Si disappeared, the other party had already burrowed into the grass for about three or four seconds. Although Tianjihong understood that the other party could not escape very far in such a short period of time, the sky was completely dark at this time, and he could not find the other party's escape route in the waist-deep grass without careful observation. After more than ten minutes of searching and chasing, Tianjihong had to admit that he had lost track of the other party. If he continued to chase in the darkness, he would only be in danger. At this time, he had no choice but to stop and return the way he came; of course, this was mainly because Or because he was worried about Xiao Fei's safety, he had to look back from time to time during the search to ensure that his opponent did not sneak back to the house secretly, which delayed him a lot of time.
Seeing the unconscious Lao Qi lying on his back in the grass not far away from the courtyard, Tianjihong couldn't help but think of his accomplice Lao Wu lurking not far away, and felt a little worried in his heart. . However, no matter how courageous I was at this time, I was determined not to go looking for that guy in the wilderness again, not to mention that the fourth child who had escaped at this time may have been connected with him; both of them were injured. Now that Tianjihong has found out his whereabouts, he will probably not stay outside the village any longer.
"Xiao Fei, are you okay? You're not hurt, are you? You just scared me to death!" Half an hour later, Tianjihong found the shivering Tianji Fei about half a mile behind the house. The latter thought His brother must have been sacrificed in the hands of people from the Shigu Sect, and he didn't know what to do next. When he saw his brother coming towards him, Tianji Fei couldn't help crying happily, and stepped forward Hugged him tightly. Looking at his brother's expression, Tianjihong's heart, which had been tense all night, finally calmed down. Feeling relieved, he once again noticed the sharp pain coming from his left arm, so he hurriedly called for his brother to rush home. A simple bandage was performed.
After telling Tianji Fei what happened in detail, the latter finally recovered from his panic, and then looked at his brother with admiration. Obviously, Tianjihong's display of magical powers tonight deeply shocked his younger brother's young mind. At this moment, Tianjihong's heart was filled with an unprecedented strong desire for practice. After the first battle in his life, he was constantly summarizing and reflecting at this moment, and he was even more aware of his many shortcomings. He felt that if he was decisive enough and not soft-hearted, his opponent would definitely have no chance of escaping. At the same time, the yearning for more powerful power also filled Tianjihong's whole mind. Thinking about it, if he only cultivated a spiritual power today, the opponent would definitely not be his one-in-one general, and there would be no chance of hurting him. my own.
As for Lao Qi, who fell unconscious on the ground outside the house, it really gave the two brothers a headache. The two of them, who had always been good-hearted, would definitely not be able to kill someone who had no power to fight back. At this time, there were dangers outside in the middle of the night, so the two of them had to find hemp ropes and tie the old Qi tightly under a big tree outside the house; to ensure safety, Tianjihong tied the guy a few more times, just short of No more tying him into a rice dumpling. After confirming that it was impossible to break free from such confinement, the two brothers breathed a sigh of relief, and finally blocked their mouths with a coarse cloth before leaving; they planned to go to the village early tomorrow morning Find some people to help bring this guy to the village and hand him over to the village chief for him to be punished.
After such a thrilling night, the two of them thought they would be so excited that they couldn't sleep at all, but the fact was that not long after, the exhaustion from the whole night quickly invaded their minds. Looking at Tianji Fei, whose eyelids were already fighting, Tianjihong, who suppressed his sleepiness, gently placed his brother on the bed, while he stood up and walked around to try to dispel the fatigue after the war. Naturally, he was still worried about whether the other party would make a comeback, and the two companions were still in his hands. Although he did not think that the other party would dare to stay nearby when his whereabouts were exposed and his injuries were worse than his own. But he was not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. At this moment, he didn't dare to fall asleep like this. He had to steel himself and scout around the house, alert for signs of trouble coming from every direction.
But in the end, the strong sleepiness finally made this twelve-year-old child unable to support it. When Tian Jihong woke up early the next morning, he found himself curled up next to the half-broken stone mill after the battle last night. He probably couldn't hold back his sleepiness when he closed his eyes to rest in the middle of the night. past. Fortunately, judging from this situation, he and his brother in the room were safe; the two desperadoes did not choose to come back for revenge, and they should indeed have left this place and fled.
Only then did Tian Jihong suddenly remember that he had made an appointment with Master Li yesterday to meet at Mao o'clock this morning. At that time, Master also specifically reminded me that if I was late, I might lose the opportunity to become a disciple! Thinking of this, Tianjihong suddenly woke up from his dazed mind, and quickly raised his head to look at the sky; but what made him a little desperate was that there was already some dazzling sunlight in the sky. I was afraid that half an hour had passed, and with the long journey there, I must have been late for a long time. He hurried back to the house to change his clothes, and took the opportunity to check on his sleeping brother and the seventh queen who still had her eyes closed under the tree. Tianjihong didn't care about his appearance and rushed directly to the village. go.
After a while, there was an open space outside the inn.
Tianjihong originally thought that since he was nearly an hour late, he might not be able to find Master Li at all. But when he hurriedly arrived near the agreed location, he happened to bump into the latter in front of the inn, arguing in a low voice with a guy dressed as the leader of the caravan, and his face looked a little anxious. As a monk, the latter had obviously already detected Tianjihong who was rushing towards him in a hurry, so he made a gentle gesture to let him wait in the open space temporarily. In this way, it was naturally inconvenient for Tianjihong to leave the other party to listen to the two of them, so he walked silently to the open space on the side, and finally set his eyes on the sword that Li Ming had placed beside the open space.
Judging from the sword and some other miscellaneous items scattered around, it was obvious that Martial Master Li had arrived here a long time ago to start practicing. He probably left here after meeting an acquaintance from another caravan. The handle of the sword looked simple and elegant, without any carved patterns or patterns, but the handle seemed to be covered with an invisible film; if Tianjihong hadn't carefully examined every detail of the entire sword, he would have His naked eyes could hardly distinguish it. According to his speculation, this film may be wrapped around the handle of the knife with a micro-array condensed by spiritual power, but its specific function is unknown.
The material of the sword's blade cannot be seen. The only thing that can be determined is that it is not made of ordinary fine iron. This material reveals dark silver spots under the reflection of the sun, and the color of the entire blade is quite dim. It looks very simple and unremarkable. But if you observe carefully, you will find that in this muddy land, the entire blade is spotless and has a natural feeling. Sometimes a little dust falling in the air falls on the blade, and it feels like it is touching. Like a mirror, it was gently pushed away by an inexplicable force, and gradually slid along the blade to the ground. The more Tianjihong looked at it, the more he couldn't put it down, and he couldn't help but want to reach out and pick it up and weigh it.
