Chapter 249 249: Holding a grudge [two-in-one]
Gu Chi was sure that he was not injured.
So, where does this blood come from?
He and Kang Shi both looked at Qishan, who had sweat on his forehead and a pale face. Kang Shi grabbed Qi Shan's hand that had fallen on Gu Chi's sleeve, and was shocked to find that there was a wound running across the palm of Qi Shan's hand. The skin was torn and the flesh was dripping with blood.
Kang Shi asked: "When did you get injured?"
Judging from the color of the blood in the wound, it was still a fresh wound.
Gu Chi said: "It's not yet time to set up camp and break out the stronghold."
From the time the army set off to meeting the Pig King rebels led by Gong Xiqiu, there were no other twists and turns on the way. Not to mention hurting Qi Shan, a literary scholar. You must know that Literary Scholar may not be good at anything else, but he must have worked hard at escaping and dodging.
Looking at the location of the wound, a scene flashed through his mind, and a ridiculous idea came to Kang Shi's mind. To verify his guess, he raised his hand and pressed Qi Shan's chest, shoulders, back and other parts, and felt something strange through the fabric.
He didn't use much force, Qi Shan still frowned in pain.
As a human spirit, Gu Chi didn't understand the meaning of Kang Shi's actions at first, but he soon understood. He suddenly opened his eyes wide and turned to look at the battlefield where violent explosions continued to erupt.
He made silent mouth gestures at Kang Shi, who nodded.
Gu Chi: "..."
The absurd conjecture was confirmed, and Gu Chi couldn't help but suspect that the sun rises from the west - an "evil conspiracy" that has always been criticized as the "Lord Killer" "Qi Shan actually has such a "loyal, righteous and benevolent" side? Are you willing to be someone's puppet? Really not afraid of death!
Kang Shi remembered something.
He whispered: "I'm afraid it's not what we thought."
Gu Chi said: "Why not?"
These inexplicable injuries are related to the position of Shen Lang's injury in front of the fighter. Exactly the same, they should appear at the same time.
I can’t think of any other possibility besides witchcraft like killing puppets. But isn't this evil trick just a figment of imagination?
Kang Shi didn’t explain anything else.
Just a reminder: "The way of the scribes."
Gu Chi: "..."
Kang Shi provided him with a new idea.
As we all know, the way of the scribe is a very special "word spirit", and it is also a double-edged sword that can stab oneself at any time.
A typical example is Gu Chi's "mind reading".
Except for a few special circumstances - such as Gu Ren - Gu Chi can easily know anyone's thoughts. The other person's secrets are completely private in front of him, but the disadvantages are also obvious. The disadvantage is that Gu Chi cannot flexibly control it.
He has hardly slept well since he woke up.
Even if he hid in the remote mountains and forests, avoiding the noisy voices and the malice in people's hearts, the excessive consumption of Wen Qi also brought a great burden to his body, causing his body to be weak and suffering from tuberculosis all year round. A medicine jar was suddenly created.
Another example is Kang Shi’s “You must lose every bet”.
This way of being a scribe is not as simple as losing a bet. People close to him will also be affected to a certain extent. Kang Shi himself also has various difficulties. Later, I thought of using gambling to alleviate this dilemma, but I didn’t dare to get too close to others...
Kang Shi and Yan'an became friends and often moved around when they were young, because Yan'an's scribe's ways could restrain him to some extent.
To put it simply, being friends with Kang Shi will make your life more difficult!
So the scribe’s way of praying for good—
is just a simple “killing the Lord”?
Now it seems that is not the case.
Gu Chi couldn't help but complain: "If those lords before Qi Yuanliang knew about it, wouldn't they be filled with regret?"
As long as he completely trusts Qi Shan, Qi Shan's life will be completely controlled by him. In his hand, he can still get a second life...
But——
This may be related to the fact that Qi Shan's previous masters were all "spoiled". Not to mention that in the next fight, they will fight to the death with others. They usually ride horses and sedans whenever they go out. They are surrounded by heavy protection. It is difficult for the killer to start, let alone to hurt them through assassination.
If you are not injured, you will naturally not find any "surprises".
Gu Chi couldn't help but sigh.
He thought that he and Qi Shan were evenly matched.
I didn’t expect Qishan to be an “evil plotter” with a bad reputation on the surface, but secretly such a “loyal protector”, ah, it’s really incomparable. At this time, Qishan also felt relieved.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the disgusting expression on Gu Chi's face.
Sit up suddenly and push him away.
When he saw the blood stains on his hands and Gu Chi's sleeves, he immediately understood that the secret was known to these two people, and was secretly angry.
Gu Chi said: "Don't try to be brave."
Qishan: "..."
He whispered: "Keep it secret for now."
Gu Chi asked Qi Shan if he was joking with his eyes.
If the injury was not serious, it wouldn't take much effort for Qi Shan to hide it from Shen Tang, but with such a serious injury, he would most likely find out the truth after questioning. If you still don't understand, either Shen Lang is blind, or he knows and pretends not to know.
Qishan took a few breaths and stood up, taking Kang Shi's hand.
Quietly said: "What else?"
The management of a power cannot be without the advice and assistance of literati, but it is also indispensable without the powerful and courageous warriors who can intimidate Xiaoxiao from all directions. Don't dare to despise or offend.
Gong Shuwu alone is not enough.
Powerful and courageous warriors are not so easy to recruit. Why should people ignore such a promising future and join a little-known force that can't afford a salary? Generating electricity for love?
There are not enough people, so Shen Xiaolangjun has to bear the burden first.
As long as this battle starts, it will be easy to recruit in the future.
As for these injuries——
It’s completely unimportant!
Compared with life, everything else is trivial.
Gu Chi: "..."
Kang Shi: "..."
Shen Lang's civil and military skills are indeed serious.
At this time, the alliance leader Wu Xian also sent someone to express condolences.
Qishan just responded indifferently: "It's just that the old wound accidentally burst, plus the previous damage was too heavy, just rest for a while."
Leader Wu Xian didn't have much doubt after hearing this.
Qi Shan and his party were killed from Xiaocheng. How could such a chaotic situation remain intact? In addition, the journey was bumpy and the injuries were difficult to recover from. The lives of Lord Shen and Qiu Jiang Gongxi were often hanging by a thread. It was normal for the old wounds to burst under excitement.
However——
As the leader of the alliance, you still need to show some expression.
He planned to end this battle and asked someone to bring some good medicinal materials.
Mr. Shen also suffered a lot of injuries. One of them is a gift, and two of them are also gifts. There are not too many favors that can be exchanged for things.
The scholar in soap shirt frowned when he heard this.
However, firstly, he did not go to check it out in person, secondly, he did not know the condition of the "old injury" mentioned by Qishan, and thirdly, when Kangshi and Qishan looked calm, it must be that Qishan's injury was not serious...
Of course it is impossible to guess the way of scribes praying for good.
A missed opportunity to know the truth.
At the same time, it was time for a showdown between Shen Tang and Gong Xiqiu. It's not that Shen Tang can't handle it, but that Gong Xiqiu has his own considerations - in previous battles, both sides won one and lost one, but fighting is not as simple as winning two out of three.
It’s good to win the third game, but it doesn’t matter if you can’t.
There are still brave warriors with well-preserved strength in the Alliance Army who are eyeing him. If he consumes too much here, he will suffer a great loss when the two armies confront each other. After much deliberation, he still chose to preserve his strength and decide the outcome with one move against Shen Tang.
So a very funny scene appeared. He and Shen Tang were fighting until afterimages were everywhere, and at the same time he expressed his thoughts unceremoniously. The sound of fighting completely covered up the small sound.
Gong Xiqiu asked her: "What does Mama think?"
He was not worried that Shen Tang would refuse, because he was sure in his heart that Shen Tang and he were the same kind of people - they could die in the hands of the strong. , but you must not be dragged to death by ants who are not as powerful as yourself, and you have to fight two hard battles on your own.
Because whether it is for yourself or for the opponent you respect, this way of death is too humiliating and makes you sick to death.
Shen Tang thought for a moment.
After a heavy blow with Gong Xiqiu, he quickly pulled away.
She was covered in sweat, and the sweat diluted the blood flowing from the wound to a shallow level. It flowed through the wound, causing waves of intense stinging pain. After a hard fight, I was short of breath, and my chest rose and fell rapidly. Even though he was embarrassed, he still raised his head and responded proudly.
"In that case, as you wish!"
Gong Xiqiu laughed: "If you have any tricks, just use them!" Shen Tang was definitely the most difficult opponent he had ever encountered in his life.
He is also looking forward to the other party bringing him new surprises.
Naturally, Shen Tang would not disappoint him.
She swung her sword.
Shake off the blood stained on the sword.
The Mother Sword returns to its original appearance.
She said: "Then you should keep an eye on it."
After saying this, the sword in her hand was thrown out.
Gong Xiqiu thought this was a big move, and he did not dare to underestimate the enemy. His luck sank, and the halberd in his hand began to accumulate strength, ready to go.
It’s just——
The long sword that was thrown away did not shoot towards Gongxi Qiumenmen, but stopped strangely halfway between the two. Shen Tang raised his hand , said sonorously and forcefully: "Generals, listen to the order——"
Following that, the corpses of those literary giants who had been slaughtered by the soldiers of Commander Gong Xiqiu actually started to move!
It turned into the purest black and white literary energy and rushed towards the Mother Sword. It was completely absorbed in a blink of an eye!
But that’s not enough!
Not enough!
At this time, everyone in the Alliance Army discovered something was wrong.
The aura of heaven and earth around me seems...
The soap-shirted scribe suddenly raised his head.
Gu Ren raised his hand and felt it.
Muttered: "The air of heaven and earth has been drained out?"
Yes, the air of heaven and earth within a certain radius was drained out forcefully, like a whale swallowing a dragon, and it surged towards the sword body. go!
The whole process only takes two or three breaths.
Seeing this, Gong Xiqiu was excited at the same time and looked solemn, realizing that the next move might not be easy!
Shen Tang also lived up to his expectations.
"Qianshan——"
The two-word exit.
The surging black and white literary energy burst out from the sword body.
In an instant, they condensed into thousands of sword shadows.
Shen Tang continued: "The bird is flying!"
Both armies looked at the dense sword shadows.
My scalp is numb!
Although the shadows of the swords are very faint and vague, and the power of a single one is not great, and the lethality should be about the same as the arrows condensed by ordinary brave warriors, but - there are thousands of them! If ten thousand swords were fired together and two hard battles were fought, Gongxi Qiu, who had lost nearly half of his army, would not be able to withstand it.
Leader Wu Xian excitedly held the armrest and stood up.
Others are also looking forward to it.
Quickly, quickly——
Kill Gong Xiqiu! ! !
However, some people are more sober.
For example, the soap-shirted scribe.
If you observe carefully, you will find that these sword shadows are very weak. Their numbers may seem bluffing, but in fact they are strong on the outside but weak on the inside. It is obvious that their literary energy cannot be supplied. If he held on and tried to activate it completely, Master Shen might be seriously injured by the backlash before Gong Xiqiu was injured!
Needless to say Gu Chi and Kang Shi. They didn't even need to look at Shen Tang's state or the shadows of the swords. They just looked at Qi Shan vomiting blood and knew that this move would be enough to exert 10% of its power.
As expected, Shen Tang did not say the second half of the sentence.
It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t.
Just thinking about it in my heart makes my eyes go black. Shen Tang didn't want to pass out in this place and let an unknown person pick up the head.
She was cruel and gritted her teeth to start.
In an instant, thousands of sword shadows hit the rebel camp like a rainstorm.
Once raw, twice familiar.
Gong Xiqiu has been prepared for a long time.
Shen Tang's last move was also aimed at the army.
A familiar scene happened again.
More than ten thousand rebels shouted in unison: "Royal!"
Although today is different from that time under Xiaocheng City, Gongxi Qiu won three battles in a row and killed one general, but the morale of the army is the same Not weak, even beyond that day. Because in addition to their high morale, they also have a bit more "sorrow and anger" and "seeing death as home"!
Seeing the long-established morale gathering above the army, blocking out the sky and the sun, leader Wu Xian also took the opportunity to give the order to attack.
A loud horn sounded.
The morale of the alliance army has been dragged down for too long, jumping back and forth between high and low. Coupled with the absolute strength of Gongxi Qiu, who is like the coming of the god of death, the morale is relatively lower than that of the rebels, but it is sinking. Tang's performance in the last game was much better than expected.
One army forms a shield and the other becomes a spear.
The Loving Mother Sword flew towards Gong Xiqiu, blocking his return, while the shadow of the sword fell towards the giant shield formed by the force of thousands of troops.
Shen Tang raised his hand to wipe away the blood that overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
Staring at the giant shield.
He said in a cold voice: "Give! Me! Break! Open!"
Thousands of sword shadows fell down with a force that shattered the sky and the earth.
Boom——
Boom——
As soon as the two came into contact, countless dense fires shot into the sky.
The world became silent for a moment.
The earth is shaking, the wind is howling, and the heat wave seems to boil the air. The harsh sound of the collision was intertwined with the killing cries of the two armies, making almost everyone red-eyed. I don't know whether it was reddened by the firelight or the murderous intention aroused in my chest.
Zizzizi——
Sparks are flying!
Shen Tang stood between the two armies.
She is not tall, but at this time, she gives people a sense of loneliness and standing on the altar, and even gives people the illusion of surrender. Finally, the huge shield was overwhelmed.
The dull "click" sound sounded like the sound of nature to Shen Tang's ears. She watched with her own eyes as countless cracks spread crazily in all directions. The moment the sword shadow dissipated, the giant shield was completely shattered. When Shen Tang saw this, his eyes brightened surprisingly.
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
The Mother Sword that blocked him was just a feint.
Shen Tang has only one real goal.
The giant shield formed by the power of thousands of armies.
He couldn't help but think of the situation under Xiaocheng that day.
Puffed: "Mama really doesn't hold a grudge."
Shen Tang held on and watched the giant shield disappear.
The moment she disappeared, she reached her limit.
Losing all strength, he fell straight forward.
Some sharp-eyed rebel soldiers fired cold arrows at her, but before the arrows arrived, Shen Tang, who had not yet fallen to the ground, disappeared on the spot.
When Gong Xiqiu saw this, his eyebrows stretched.
Next time——
He will gain real victory!

Today I was "lucky" to get a TTC Quicksilver keyboard. Oh my god, it's really fast. Although the coding speed is much faster than a few years ago. It's not comparable, but it's a slight improvement.
I will try the gold powder shaft tomorrow. It is lighter than Quicksilver.
PS: The cherry tea switches and green switches are definitely the keyboards I regret the most I have ever bought.
