The two arrows were actually shot from the tree above Jiang Shuo's head. It seemed that the two crossbowmen had already been lurking on the tree, because they were already hibernating on it before Jiang Shuo arrived. The two people's voices were completely covered up, so that Jiang Shuo didn't realize that there was someone hiding in the tree. The two men were indifferent to the fierce fight under the tree, and waited patiently until everyone relaxed their vigilance before taking advantage of them and shooting the crossbow.
They used Tang Jun's crossbows, and the arrows were specially made without feathers. Although they didn't shoot very far, they were very fast within a short distance and had excellent accuracy. Even though Jiang Shuo had already obtained Dugu Wen's true inheritance through the Star Steps, When he heard the sound of bowstrings, he didn't react in time.
However, both arrows were shot into the mud - the arrows were so powerful that they had no arrows, but they missed the target greatly. The landing point was very far away from Tarigu and Hang Han. The two archers were able to hold their breath and hide. Matsuma was patiently waiting for the best time to launch, which showed that he was a very experienced veteran. It was hard to imagine that such an experienced crossbowman would miss such an outrageous target in the end.
While everyone was in astonishment, they heard two sounds of "plop" and "plop". Two black-clothed drago river warriors fell from two nearby trees. They were still holding pitch-black crossbows, made of fine iron. The featherless arrows were scattered on the ground, and then a young girl jumped down from the tree, it was Dugu Xiang. The Khitan warriors immediately nervously pointed their bows and arrows at her. Before Jiang Shuo could stop him, Dugu Xiang had already swung out the long rope. The moon was full today, and the long rope was like a shadow on water, dancing into a white rainbow under the moonlight. , fitting the name of this skill "Moon Shadow Prime Cold Current", with just one move he knocked all the long bows out of the hands of the surrounding warriors.
The Khitan warriors did not expect that this delicate little woman would reach out like this. They drew out their long swords and were about to attack. Jiang Shuo hurriedly stood in front of Dugu Xiang and said, "Don't do anything, we are one of our own!" The Khitan warriors did not speak Chinese, so in the tower, Gu Mang shouted again in Khitan language, and then all the warriors put down their swords.
Jiang Shuo turned around and said happily: "Xiang'er, why did you come just now..."
Dugu Xiang smiled and said, "You still think I arrived late?" He kicked the crossbowman on the ground, and the two of them groaned. It turned out that they did not die, but their acupoints were closed by Dugu Xiang, but they fell from such a high tree. Next, he was seriously injured, and he couldn't help but moan in pain when she kicked him. Hang Han called the warriors in Khitan language to take the two of them, tie them up, and torture them alive.
Dugu Xiang allowed the Khitan warriors to tie up the two men on the ground, but said to Jiang Shuo, "Brother Shuo, do you know how many crossbowmen are hidden in this forest?"
Jiang Shuo was shocked and said, "It turns out there are more than just these two lurking shooters!"
Dugu Xiang said: "Hey, there are seventy people ambushed in the tree! If I hadn't acted righteously, Dugu Nuxia, you would have been shot into a hedgehog long ago."
With Jiang Shuo's ability, even if he is not prepared for a surprise attack by crossbowmen, he will not be hit. However, if there are a large number of crossbowmen hidden in the forest and shooting crossbow arrows from all directions, although he can protect himself, he will not be able to take care of Tarigu and Hang. John is very thoughtful. Jiang Shuo said to Dugu Xiang, "I was too careless. Thanks to Xiang'er for your cleverness."
In fact, Dugu Xiang just arrived late. Although she had traveled with her parents for several years and had more experience than Jiang Shuo, she was not so alert. The person who actually discovered the ambush on the tree was Dugu Wen, an old man from Jianghu. When he saw that Jiang Shuo did not notice the ambush, he jumped down the tree, so he followed him down the tree, but turned around and circled around the forest on the top of the tree. Soon He found another seventy crossbowmen hiding on the trees in the forest. Dugu Wen was very good at lightness skills, and these people were all staring at the bottom of the tree. He didn't expect that there were still people who could pass by the top of the tree. Therefore, Dugu Wen looked around, but was not noticed. Discover.
Dugu Xiang was left behind by the two of them, and arrived after a cup of tea. However, Dugu Wen quietly grabbed him, pressed his index finger to his lips to signal her to be silent, and pointed out the people hidden in the tree one by one. He showed it to her and made a sign with his hand. There were seventy people in total. Xiang'er asked Dugu softly: "Grandpa, what should I do?"
Dugu asked: "Secretly outflank, starting from the outer circle, kill the outermost ones first, until you reach the ambush on the tree above Shuoer's head inside, be sure to defeat them one by one, and don't attract others' attention."
Xiang'er giggled and said, "Grandpa, do you dare to bet with me?"
Dugu Wen glared and said, "What are you competing for?"
Xiang'er said: "Let's see who can kill more people."
Dugu asked: "What are you betting on?"
Xiang'er
Said: "I bet you can teach me another kung fu."
Dugu Wen shook his head repeatedly and said, "No, no, you are too stupid. It would be too troublesome to teach you kung fu."
Xiang'er pouted and said, "Who asked you to teach Brother Shuo how to penetrate the second level of Star Step? Now that he has learned it, he is very proud. Look at how fast he ran today. I was even beaten by him." , you have to teach me another unique skill so that I can beat him."
Dugu Wen scratched his head and said, "That's difficult. Not to mention the young talents, even if you look at today's martial arts world, it's very difficult to defeat an opponent."
Xiang'er said: "Grandpa, why do you always try to boost other people's ambitions? I am your granddaughter... I don't want to beat him in kung fu, as long as I can beat him in one thing." Xiang'er has always been lazy and often practices martial arts. It was something she had never done before, such as stealing from a daughter and playing tricks, and taking the initiative to beg her grandfather to teach her martial arts.
In fact, Jiang Shuo's kung fu was better than hers, and Dugu Xiang didn't care too much, because although Jiang Shuo's internal and external kung fu was high, his light kung fu was always slightly inferior to hers. However, in the past few days, after Dugu Wen taught Jiang Shuo Xingbu's second-level mental technique, Jiang Shuo's Qing Gong improved by leaps and bounds. Now Dugu Xiang's Qing Gong was not as good as Jiang Shuo's, and he couldn't help but arouse his desire to win. It was the first time she asked her grandfather to teach her new stunts.
Dugu Wen twirled his beard and thought for a moment, then said: "It's not that difficult. You can win the gambling game first and then talk about it." Before he finished speaking, he saw Dugu Xiang jumping out and rushing towards the first shooter in the outer circle to hide. When he was there, Dugu Wen laughed and flew to the tree on the other side.
There are a hundred people in this Yiluohe army, led by a brigade commander. They set up an ambush here early in the morning. The brigade commander who leads the army is quite sophisticated. When Taligu broke in, he saw that there were only a few of them. Let a team of thirty people lead an interception in the forest, while he led the main force to ambush in the trees.
The reason why that team directed all the warriors to surround Taligu was because they recognized Taligu as the leader of the sudden force, and they were just waiting for him to call for reinforcements, and then suddenly attacked, killing more Khitan people so that they could go back and claim credit. .
Otherwise, with Yiluohe's tactical prowess and cruelty, Taligu's small group would have been slaughtered long ago, and Jiang Shuo would not be able to wait for them to save them.
Unexpectedly, reinforcements came, but Jiang Shuo was the only one. However, Jiang Shuo's martial arts was so good that everyone did not dare to shoot arrows for a while. They only waited for the brigade commander's order. The arrows of the brigade commander's crossbow were made with specially made hammers. The crossbowmen Using his Ming Dy as a guide, the brigade commander was really calm. He hid in the trees above Jiangshuo and remained lurking. He waited for Hang Han's reinforcements to arrive, and then he shot the Ming Dy and ordered the sergeants. They fired a volley, but unexpectedly the fire was fired. No one responded except for one person next to them. The brigade commander had no time to think about it, so he and his men aimed at Tarigu and Hang Han and fired - the purpose of the Yan army was to wipe out the eight Khitan tribes and the leaders of the eight tribes. Naturally, he was the primary target, so instead of shooting Jiang Shuo, he shot the two Khitan leaders.
At that moment, Dugu Xiang arrived. She had quietly approached the crossbowmen lying on the tree like a civet, closed their acupoints with acupuncture points, and then carefully lowered them to the back of the tree to avoid being discovered. Thirty-four people had been killed, and they were about to be finished, but the brigade commander took action in advance.
When the buzzer sounded, Jiang Shuo didn't know that there was someone hiding in the tree. How could he find the person who was shooting the arrow in the tree in such a hurry? Dugu Xiang had already targeted the two people in the tree, so when he heard the buzzer, he immediately threw his long arrow. Suo hit the brigade commander's wrist with a silver ball, and at the same time threw a pine cone at another person. Although her internal strength for throwing hidden weapons was not on the same level as Jiang Shuo, she, Yeyege Ruliang, was a master of using hidden weapons, and Dugu Xiang She was very accurate in identifying the acupoints, but the two Yiluohe warriors had no internal strength. She hit them on the wrists at the same time. Unable to control their hands, they shot all the crossbow arrows. Duguxiang flew over and knocked the two of them away from each other. The hiding place was knocked down.
Dugu Xiang defeated two people, so he had a total of thirty-six people to take care of, two more than Dugu Wen. He couldn't help but feel proud and said to the sky: "Grandpa, I won, you can't lie." There was only one thing in the night sky. A full moon hangs above the treetops, no one answers
Everyone saw her shouting into the air, but no one was there. No one except Jiang Shuo knew who this "grandpa" was. Jiang Shuo knew that Dugu Wen didn't like being with the Khitans. He must be hiding somewhere nearby. There was no need to look for him. He would show up when something happened.
Taligu asked: "Young Master Jiang, is this woman your... sister?" Seeing the two of them being intimate, he wanted to ask Jiang Shuo if Dugu Xiang was his wife, but he saw that they were still young. , I think they are not married yet, so
He temporarily changed his story and asked if she was Jiang Shuo's girl.
However, the two of them heard the underlying meaning of Ta Ligu's words, and both felt their faces getting hot. Jiang Shuo muttered: "This... this Xiang'er girl can be considered my sister..."
This "girl" is just a "girl", how can it be "regarded"? Dugu Xiang rarely refuted him, but blushed and turned his head to the side without speaking.
Seeing the two people's expressions of trepidation, Taligu hurriedly turned to Jiang Shuo and asked, "Young Master Jiang, how have you always been after we say goodbye to Fan Yang? Why did you come to a remote place in the pine desert?"
Jiang Shuo said: "It's a long story. Where are Brother Taligu, Chongshun Wang Huaixiu and Sister Zhu'er? Take me to see them."
Tali Guqi said: "Li Zhu'er? Isn't she in Fan Yang?"
Jiang Shuo thought to himself: Damn it, Sister Zhuer is still acting secretly, and he almost exposed her secrets. He quickly changed his words and said: "I came from the east of Hedong. I didn't know that Sister Zhuer didn't come, but King Chongshun was there." Where? How is the war going now?"
Tali Gudao said: "The Yan army sent troops from Pinglu three days ago and has now crossed Xiaoluo Xibuli. I don't know where Zuwu Khan is now."
Jiang Shuo listened confused and asked, "Where is this "Xiao Luo Xibuli"?" "
Taligu patted his head. All Khitan people had bald hair. Taligu slapped his forehead with a slap, which was very funny. He apologized and said, "I was negligent. "Xiaoluo Xibuli" is a Khitan. The language means "full of water". The Han people called this river "Weiluoshui", and in ancient times it was also called "Raoleshui". "
Jiang Shuo knew that the Khitan Khan's tent was located in Weakluishui, and he couldn't help but worry: "The tent in the governor's palace has been captured. Isn't the khan in danger?"
