The sound of horse hooves, as dense as heavy rain, could be heard in the distance. Lu Chen was overjoyed when he heard it - after a long wait, his business was finally open.
However, when he picked up the ax and mounted his horse, he took a closer look and was immediately disappointed.
Although it was already evening, under the light of the fire at the top of the city, Lu Chen could still see clearly that there was only one person and one horse. The horse was a good horse, and the armor was decent, but he didn't even wear a helmet. Obviously, he was not wearing a helmet. He's a gamer.
Military generals rely on armor to protect themselves, and helmets are first and foremost important. After all, when it comes to the vital points of the human body, there are few that are more important than the head.
The sons of the rich and powerful in the capital swagger through the city wearing exquisite armor to show their bravery. In order for people to see their handsome faces clearly, they never wear helmets - otherwise, who will show them when they swagger through the city?
But wearing armor without a helmet, isn’t that just fun?
The person coming must be this kind of thing, but the horse is a high-quality BMW. It is tall, powerful and fast. The horse will be his own after a while.
The horseshoes were getting closer, and Lu Chen could see more clearly.
The size of the halberd in the opponent's hand was astonishing. The halberd's shaft was as thick as a goose egg, and its length reached one to six feet. Even though it was dark green in color, I didn't know if it was an iron guy.
Maybe it was a bamboo pole, not necessarily. After all, it was impossible for a dandy to pick up such a heavy thing and swing it around.
The other party was about to reach the city gate.
Lu Chen rode up to meet him and hurriedly gave instructions: "You can't use hidden arrows to share the credit with me!"
It's okay if there are no fish or shrimps - this credit is not big in the first place. Of course, he can't let his soldiers share the credit of General Lu Da.
Soon enough, the knight with the golden crown and black armor arrived in front of him. Lu Chen originally wanted to say "Come by name" to show respect - killing a general is still a credit, killing a dandy for fun is nothing, so he wanted to Lifting up the opponent - but the opponent didn't show martial ethics, so he kept moving and swept over with a halberd.
Lu Chen had no choice but to swallow his words. He held back his breath and wheeled up the axe. Using both arms, he aimed the ax at the halberd and slashed it - the opponent's halberd was six feet long. His mountain-opening The ax is only one foot long. If you block the opponent's halberd, you have a chance to counterattack.
"Dang!" There was a loud sound, and the clashing of halberds and axes vibrated back and forth in the city gate. The soldiers behind Lu Chen were so shaken that they were dizzy and almost unsteady on their feet.
Lu Chen felt as if his ax had hit an iron mountain. The force of the shock almost caused the ax to fly out of his hand. The pain in his hands was splitting, and the BMW under his crotch stumbled back, hitting him all the time. He didn't stop until he reached the wall of the city gate passage.
"Eh?! You can actually take my halberd - you are considered a hero, so I will spare your life!" The golden-crowned knight walked away, leaving only a fleeting word. Lu Chen was so angry that he was half dead, but he couldn't refute. He suppressed his face and turned red.
With a halberd, he swept away those who were blocking his way, and Lu Wu rode his horse down the long street, heading straight for Master Yuan's mansion. As for what Lu Chen behind him felt - Lu Wu had never thought about it.
The streets were empty except for two groups of soldiers patrolling back and forth.
"There is a curfew in Songjing today. No one can pass without the order! Why don't you get off your horse?" Seeing Lu Wu galloping on his horse, Xin Jing, the team leader in charge of leading the team to patrol the city, shouted to stop him.
Don't dare to stop.
The horse is tall and runs like thunder. What if it gets trampled to death in front of it? The city patrol sergeants like them don't have chain armor, only a half-length leather armor.
Lu Wuli ignored him and just galloped past.
"Be brave and shoot him down!" Xin Jing ordered decisively.
The sergeant behind him picked up the crossbow that had been loaded with arrows, looked at the back of the golden crown knight, and fired an arrow.
When patrolling the city on weekdays, crossbows are not allowed to be loaded.
Firstly, it is for fear of accidental injury due to misfire, and secondly, keeping the string in a constant state is also harmful to the crossbow.
However, today's situation is special. Not only is there a curfew in Songjing, but Ge Ye, the captain of Nancheng, has ordered that the patrolling sergeants unsheath their swords and reload their crossbows tonight. If there are any idlers walking around without the order talisman, they will be shot without mercy.
'Ding' The crossbow arrow hit the end of the halberd and flew away.
The Black God is non-stop.
Looking at the back of the Golden Crown Knight riding away, Xin Jing shouted: "Ming Jin informs the brothers in front - ah -"
Xin Jing suddenly let out a scream and fell down on his back.
Then two loud roars were heard.
Two iron arrows made of fine iron flew one after another, breaking open the chests of the team leader Xin Jing and the crossbow-wielding sergeant, and then pierced through their backs. After splashing blood on the two tents, there were two "ding, ding" sounds. The sound clicked into the bluestone paving the way.
When the other sergeants looked in shock, they saw that the knight with the golden crown had put the long bow into his bow bag, and then picked up the halberd lying across the horse's back again.
The knight with the golden crown first placed his halberd flat on the horse's back, then drew his bow to take an arrow, shot it with his backhand, and then drew back his bow and raised his halberd. During the whole process, the horse did not even stop for a step, but just ran forward.
Heishen ran through Tianjie, which ran through Songjing, and turned through Lingxiufang, and then to Chengdefang, where the powerful people of the Wu Kingdom lived - Gongzi Yuan's residence was also here.
The roads in Chengdefang are the same as Tianjie. They are paved with long strips of bluestone. Some people often maintain and take care of them. The roads are smooth and clean. There are wooden poles on both sides carrying torches all night long.
This is probably the place with the highest housing prices in the entire Wu Kingdom - or in other words, money alone cannot buy a garden here. For example, the Lu family is not qualified to occupy a place here.
Horse hooves trampled the night, and the black horse galloped over.
Under the archway at the entrance of Chengde Square, a swordsman in brocade robes stood in the middle of the long street. Seeing the knight with the golden crown coming on horseback, he did not dodge or evade, facing the black horse and raising his sword, his body was moving forward. Swinging from side to side in a regular manner, the figure appeared on the left side of the horse for a while, and appeared on the right side of the horse for a while.
Later, his figure appeared on the left and right sides of the war horse at the same time - as if a clone technique had been cast.
"Phantom Body Technique——It should be Zhang Tong, the Wuding Sword!"
In a nearby high-rise building, five people leaned on the railing to watch.
A middle-aged woman with still charming charm said - Wudingjian Zhang Tong's movement skills are more famous than his swordsmanship in the circle of real masters. Although the distance is quite far, his movement skills alone are enough to make him famous. People recognized it.
"That ride is going to be bad." A young and pretty girl next to the middle-aged woman said.
Riders riding astride war horses naturally have a great advantage in the military formation, but if they are in a place where there is room for maneuver, they will be at a disadvantage against a master with a nimble body. Without him, even a psychic BMW will not have the same movement skills. It will definitely not be able to keep up with the master's movements.
As long as the knight dodges to the other side beyond the reach of the knight's weapon, he can kill people comfortably - because the war horse has a horse head, which naturally separates the left and right sides, the knight cannot change the attack direction of the weapon at will. You have to raise your weapon to pass the horse's head, otherwise you have to chop off the head of the horse under your crotch.
What's more, Wudingjian Zhang Tong is a very famous fourth-level swordsman, famous for his ghostly lightness and sword energy. Some people even suspect that the mysterious assassin who assassinated Gongzi Yuan is him.
Swordsmen and cavalrymen intertwined.
The horse's hooves clattered away, leaving only Wudingjian Zhang Tong's figure standing motionless on the long street.
"Huh?" Not only the five people upstairs, but also everyone else watching this brief battle were surprised.
After a while, Wudingjian Zhang Tong's body slowly split into two halves, falling to both sides, and his bloody internal organs fell to the ground with a crash.
On the long street, the light from the torches was insufficient. Although there were many experts among the bystanders, no one could see clearly how the Indefinite Sword Zhang Tong was cut in half.
There are overlapping mountains, eighteen beheadings* and a killing force - thunder striking the top.
This cut was the most swift and unparalleled.
