Chapter 22 Ambush
After searching the entire ancient tomb, judging from the sunlight coming through the large hole at the top of the square, it must be dawn outside.
Lin Shan originally planned to use a hook and rope to climb directly up through the big hole opened by Lei Zhenzi, but he considered that he would have to carry such a large baggage of antiques.
If he falls down while climbing, it doesn't matter what he is like, but he will feel bad if the antique breaks.
It would be safer to go out through the thieves' cave in a more disciplined manner.
……
On the way back, he passed by the Arrow Rain Mechanism and carefully tested it again. As expected, the tomb designer was really no good!
Each time you pass, a certain number of rounds of arrow rain will be fired. After a while, the number of arrow rain will be reset again.
Taking full advantage of the tomb robber's illusion that he had run out of arrows.
"How many arrows are stored behind this tomb passage?"
While Lin Shan was cursing the designer of the ancient tomb who had been dead for hundreds of years, he once again lamented that the five tomb robbers were really chicken thieves.
Being able to escape unharmed with the Buddha statue and the golden bell under the double obstruction of the Corpse King's pursuit and the ancient tomb mechanism is really impressive.
"It's a pity that such a talent should serve as Wu Yuanwai's little brother. After I made a lot of money selling antiques, I recruited these five brothers to help me steal and do archeology."
Lin Shan has always been very thick-skinned and feels that such talents should have better leaders to lead them so that more cultural relics can be unearthed. Contribute to the study of ancient history, customs and humanities.
……
The light ahead was getting brighter and brighter. After walking through the rugged robbery holes, Lin Shan finally walked out of the ancient tomb carrying a large burden.
Suddenly back in the sun, Lin Shan blocked the light with his hands unaccustomedly, and suddenly saw a familiar figure appearing near a bush not far from the Thief's Cave.
"Oh oh oh!"
That singing and dancing figure!
……
"Brother Chicken! You're still alive! Oh, it's great that you're okay."
"Oh oh oh! oh oh oh!"
"Are you uncomfortable somewhere?"
After experiencing "live and die together" together last night, Lin Shan developed deep feelings for Brother Ji. I couldn't help but put down my baggage and stepped forward to hug Brother Chicken.
It's just that Chicken Brother is very abnormal and keeps barking at the bushes next to him.
"Huh?"
Lin Shan glanced at the bushes and found that something seemed slightly wrong.
Stopping, Lin Shan stared there closely for a long time and smiled brightly.
"Which friend is making such a joke with me? You might as well show up and see me!"
As he spoke, his body tensed up, and his right hand secretly grasped the handle of the knife.
"Wow~"
A man in black stood up from the bushes. Maybe he saw that he had been discovered and there was no way to sneak attack if he hid, so he simply walked out openly.
"Xin Ershiyi, I didn't expect you to be so cautious at such a young age, and even left a chicken for you to watch at the entrance of the cave."
After taking off the mask, an ugly face covered by a scar appeared in front of Lin Shan.
"Scarface!"
Lin Shan couldn't help but shout out loudly. He really didn't expect that he escaped from the ancient tomb after a narrow escape, and Scarface was waiting at the entrance of the cave!
If Brother Ji hadn’t warned him, he would have been humming while carrying the antique on his back, passing by the bushes without any knowledge and without any precaution
Lin Shan couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
I almost had a brush with death!
Turning around and looking around, Brother Chicken had disappeared without a trace. Lin Shan was secretly lucky that his life was lucky, and at the same time thanked Brother Ji for saving his life again.
He pulled out the Huanshou knife and slowly pointed at the scarred face.
……
At this time, Scarface also pulled out the steel knife. Of course, this knife was bought from Nightingale for 20 contribution points after robbing the escort. After all, he cannot trust the knives bought on the market, and he still prefers internal consumption within the organization.
But now he is extremely solemn in his heart. After all, he and Lin Shan are both in the breath exchange realm. The original plan was very good, Lin Shan died in the tomb and everything was over, but unexpectedly, he came out after just one night.
Scarface even wondered if this kid had stayed in a burglar's cave all night and never went in at all.
But when he saw Lin Shan coming out, carrying a large bag of bulging things, he had to admit that the kid in front of him was very courageous and thoughtful. He even left a pet warning at the entrance of the cave as a back-up.
He is worthy of being his lifelong enemy!
……
The atmosphere outside the cave entrance was tense for a while, with both sides silent and confronting each other with knives.
A quarter of an hour later, a figure moved first, charging in with a steel knife.
Lin Shan looked at Scarface rushing towards him, but his mood was not as nervous as before.
I have experienced so many days of strong winds and waves, and even saw immortal cultivators fighting each other last night. He realizes that he and Scarface are no longer on the same level. Since Scarface failed to successfully attack me, then one on one, they are in the same realm, so why should I be afraid?
"Kill!"
The two of them clashed with each other, chopping, slashing, stabbing, teasing, picking, and chopping. Every move was full of wildness and violence.
Because there was no tension as before, Lin Shan relied on his instincts from years of practicing swordsmanship to integrate the muscle memory of "Qingfeng Sword Technique" into every move. Originally I chose the Huanshou Sword because the Huanshou Sword itself is a long sword used for immediate chopping. Apart from being single-edged and longer, it is basically no different from a sword, and it is even more capable of wielding swordsmanship.
Scarface has also experienced hundreds of battles and has been an assassin for many years. There is also no shortage of examples of assassinations that failed and turned into head-on fights.
The scar on his face was a result of a failed assassination attempt and was carved on his face by the enemy, but he then forcibly cut the man into a stick from the front.
After the last mission of robbing silver in the valley, he spent 200 contribution points to exchange for the inner martial arts he had dreamed of for a long time at Nightingale Branch.
Three styles of domineering sword!
Now that he has mastered the sword technique proficiently, he is no longer under Wu Xiameng. If Lin Shan used the previous fight in the valley to judge his strength, he would definitely lose miserably.
……
At this time, Lin Shan and Scarface had been fighting for dozens of rounds, and they had already discovered that something was wrong. Scarface seemed to be attacking, but in fact he had some remaining strength. It seems that he has been building momentum, putting more and more pressure on him, and the next blow will definitely be earth-shattering.
Seeing Lin Shan's expression gradually becoming suspicious, the corners of Scarface's mouth curled up in a ferocious arc.
"If you are still the same person you were a few days ago and have not made any progress, then just suffer death!"
"Three moves of the domineering sword, the sky will collapse!"
Scarface's aura surged to the peak of his energy, and he was as powerful as a swimming dragon. The meridians throughout his body were stirring, and his true energy was boiling. He poured his energy and energy into this sword, and suddenly struck it down.
"Cut!"
"Fuck me!"
Lin Shan couldn't help but curse in his heart. If you have a trick, just use it. Why are you making such a loud noise? My eardrums were numb and painful due to the vibration.
But whether it should be said or not, this synchronized coordination of words and actions can indeed cause great psychological pressure on the opponent. Lin Shan knew that he could not take this blow, but the problem was that Scarface had planned it for a long time, and he could not avoid it and would not take it. no.
"Clang!"
The crisp sound of fighting echoed in the mountains, and Lin Shan was directly knocked back several steps. His right wrist felt stiff and numb, and his internal organs felt a cramping pain. A mouthful of blood rushed to his throat, and he swallowed it forcefully.
The Changchun Qi in the body circulates slightly, the colic in the meridians is suppressed, and the limbs feel cool. Lin Shan knew that this was the healing effect of Xiantian Qi at work.
Lifting the Huanshou knife, he found that the blade had a chip.
After the attack on Scarface on the opposite side, his momentum increased instead of decreasing, and his true energy circulated crazily. Following the peculiar meridian route again, he raised the knife and advanced forward.
"The second form, the ground cracks!"
There was no way to avoid this feeling again, and Lin Shan was so sad that he vomited blood.
He had to bring up his true energy and fight Scarface again.
"Canglanglang!"
This time, Lin Shan was lifted up and fell three meters away along the parabola.
"Cough cough cough!"
Lin Shan, who hurriedly climbed up despite the severe pain, finally couldn't hold back and coughed up blood. He could feel that the meridians in his body were faintly damaged, and the Changchun Qi was running wildly to restore the injury.
Seeing Scarface running towards him dragging the knife, he didn't give himself any chance to breathe.
It doesn't even have the problem of the villain talking too much in the novel, and all the momentum is concentrated in one point.
"Third Form"
"Go to hell! Strengthen me!"
Lin Shan finally couldn't hold himself any longer and directly opened the reinforced panel of the Huanshou Dao which had two large cracks in his hand and was on the verge of being scrapped. He gritted his teeth and made the choice without hesitation
"Strengthen!"
A burst of extreme white light appeared between the two of them. Starting from the handle of the Huanshou knife in their hands, a circle of blue electric light spread from bottom to top, passing through the handle, hand guard, base, back, blade, and tip of the knife. .
Wherever the blue light passes, the wooden texture of the knife handle becomes more frosted, the thick parts of the knife back condense and shrink, grooves suddenly appear in the wide parts of the blade, the chipped parts of the blade return to their original appearance, and the sharp points of the knife tip emit cold light.
A brand new sword was born!
【Knife Knife】
Quality: Magic weapon
Introduction: The sword is three feet long, made of ten thousand forged fine steel, made by the forging master Ou Yezi. It can cut gold and jade, and cut iron like mud.
Strengthening requirements: 4 points
……
Lin Shan directly ignored the enhanced transparent panel, regardless of what he recorded and introduced, and directly faced it with a sword.
At this moment, Scarface happened to be half a step away from him, and the blade in his hand was already close to his eyes.
"The third form, overturn the sea!"
"Ding!"
An extremely clear and crisp sword chant, like a gift from nine heavenly dew dripping down to the mortal world, echoed in the mountains for a long time, the trees danced, and the shallow grass rustled swaying.
The geese passing by in the sky couldn't help but chirp in agreement!
Scarface looked at the broken knife in his hand blankly.
This scene seems familiar!
