Chapter 25 Breathing from the Ruins
These three steel darts happened to be about four feet apart, which was a distance that was neither long nor short.
When an ordinary person swings a weapon and knocks down the first dart, it will not affect the following darts, and it is easy to be hit by the following darts.
If you use a shield to resist, the three darts in a line will hit the same point, which is enough to penetrate most common shields in the world.
Those who can practice concealed weapon techniques to this level will have a special name in the world, called "The King of Hell's Life-Destroying Hand, Finger-Flicking Chain Crossbow".
But when Cao Wubo faced this hidden weapon skill that was said to be life-threatening by the King of Hell, he didn't even need to draw his sword. He just pulled his cloak with his left hand and shook it forward.
The cloak swirled like a vortex, with internal energy poured into it, adding a soft yet strong strength, wrapping all three darts.
Cao Wubo flicked his hand, and all the darts in his cloak fell on the ground on the left side.
At the sound of three consecutive sounds, a larger hole was opened in the wall opposite, and the man who fired the darts broke in with a sword.
Zhu Hui holds the sword with her left hand, but she is left-handed, and her left hand is more flexible and powerful than an ordinary person's right hand.
After escorting the Yu family's children in so many battles, she was the only one with no obvious injuries, which shows her high level of martial arts.
Even the last time she fought with Su Hanshan, because she never really had the intention to kill in her heart, her swordsmanship was far less powerful than when she was actually fighting to the death.
Now, the murderous aura in her heart can be said to be at its peak in her life, and she can't even help but scream.
As soon as he entered the ruins, the sword shadow was as frantic as a wheel, sweeping out large tracts of broken tiles on the ground, and shooting towards Cao Wubo like an overwhelming hidden weapon.
Zhu Hui's own figure even rushed as fast as the tiles that were swept away.
If Cao Wubo still wanted to use his cloak to block the broken tiles, Zhu Hui, who was sprinting among the broken tiles, would break his cloak with a sword and catch him off guard.
"What a handsome girl!"
The governor of Dongchang is still confident, his smile remains unchanged, his wrist is slightly heavy, the blade of the Chakravartin King's Sword buzzes, and he picks it forward, trembling momentarily. Sword flowers bloomed.
The bright silver sword flowers are like seven or eight huge hibiscus flowers of different species, growing side by side. The brilliance of blooming in an instant causes the air currents to scatter chaotically.
The sword wind not only shook away all the broken tiles, but the blade of the Chakravartin King Sword suppressed Zhu Hui's sword with greater accuracy.
The two swords twisted in the air, the blades rubbed against each other, the blades scraped, and a series of piercing screams were heard.
There was a smell like burning iron, permeating the air, and little bits of fire scattered outward.
Although Zhu Hui also tried his best to shake out the sword flowers, trying to press the opponent's sword blade, but after stirring up twenty or thirty sword flowers in a breath, the speed and strength of the sword were still worse than before. The other party was a beat slower.
The contusion and sprain of her wrist caused her fingers to loosen slightly, and the sword flew out of her hand.
The tip of Cao Wubo's sword was about to pierce her throat.
He likes beauties, especially the kind of heroic women who are unwilling to give in to him, but he doesn't like threatening people.
The war is not over yet, and anyone who goes against him is best only the dead.
This sword is so fast that there is no trace of distraction.
But Zhu Hui leaned back suddenly, waved his arm, and the long sword that escaped his hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, as if being pulled by an invisible rope, and slashed towards Cao Wubo's calf.
No, it is not an invisible rope, but a tangible and qualitative steel wire.
Under Zhu Hui's left sleeve, there was a bracelet hidden, which was Feilong's bracelet.
The meteor knife in Feilong's hand almost forced Su Hanshan into a desperate situation. Zhu Hui was shocked when he saw it.
It was impossible for her to learn how to use the Meteor Sword so quickly, but it was not a bad idea to borrow the steel wire bracelet carefully prepared by Fei Long, modify the hilt of her sword, and use it as a surprise move.
The ruins were filled with chaotic dust, and Cao Wubo failed to discover the steel wire in time, which made this move work wonders.
He jumped in the air and dodged the long sword that chopped off his legs, but he also kicked Zhu Hui away.
boom! !
Zhu Hui knocked down the earthen wall and vomited blood. He didn’t know how many bones he had broken. He was so delirious in pain that his forehead was covered with big beads of sweat. In a trance, he saw Cao Wubo striking the ground with a sword. Sweep out.
A long and narrow gap opened in the ground, and white smoke seemed to be spraying out of it.
That was actually the sword energy moving forward, and the soil and tiles along the way were all cut neatly.
Until a black umbrella hit the ground, it dispersed the sword energy that was supposed to cut Zhu Hui's body open.
The black umbrella bounced up and fell into Xiao Shaofeng's hands. It suddenly opened and the umbrella surface was rotated and pushed forward.
There is already a hole in the umbrella, but after it is rotated, it cannot be seen clearly. The huge umbrella cover is still enough to block the sight between the enemy and ourselves, allowing the umbrella holder to seize the opportunity.
Cao Wubo's face changed slightly, he took two steps back, and suddenly pulled off the entire cloak, shaking it out like a long whip.
The end of the cloak tightly wrapped around the tip of the black umbrella. As Cao Wubo raised his left arm, he was about to throw the black umbrella upward.
The umbrella was raised, and Xiao Shaofan was like a long-armed white ape. A sword in his right hand slid into the wind. The sound of the wind was barely audible, but the speed of the sword was faster than the wind.
Cao Wubo shouted loudly and thrust the Wheel King Sword forward.
His sword force exploded out, a ball of white air exploded in front of the sword tip, and the sword body stabbed straight through.
Ding! ! !
The tips of the two swords collided in mid-air exactly.
There was a sudden silence among the ruins, and many smaller broken tiles on the ground suddenly ejected.
Ding——
The lingering sound of the collision of the two swords did not disappear, and the two figures retreated each other.
The cloak and black umbrella also separated, and one corner of the cloak was torn.
Cao Wubo's face was already red, but now it was even redder than coals.
Xiao Shaofan's face suddenly turned pale, as white as paper, his body trembled uncontrollably, and the narrow sword with a slightly thick spine in his hand was broken.
Half of the sword blade fell to the ground, and the tip pierced into the soil diagonally.
"After the last fight, you should know that in terms of internal strength, you are not as good as me. If you fight with swordsmanship, you may still have a chance of winning, but unfortunately..."
Unfortunately, Young Master Xiao just now Behind him were two companions whose life or death was unknown, and one who was definitely alive. He subconsciously chose to fight head-on.
Cao Wubo's voice was slightly hoarse, he grinned and shouted, "Bai Qi, Shaotang!"
In the unreserved fight between the two just now, Xiao Shaofeng was certainly exhausted, his internal organs were bruised and he couldn't move.
But Cao Wubo was also a little dizzy with the blood rushing back to his head. He was about to adjust his breath quickly and call for two capable men to deal with these people.
Unexpectedly, after he called out these two names, no one broke into the ruins after several breaths passed.
The fighting in the outside world continues, with voices and horses neighing, swords clashing, and screams and roars being heard all the time.
Due to internal force reaction and qi and blood boiling, Cao Wubo is currently unable to accurately distinguish whether the sounds of fighting outside are far or near, what kind of weapons they are, and who is participating.
But he could at least find that the explosive sound of the evil dragon spitting beads did not sound again.
There seems to be an answer to why Pi Shaotang and Bai Qi didn't come.
Cao Wubo put his sword on the ground, gasped, and took out a handful of medicine bottles from his arms. After identifying them for a while, he shook his hands and threw away all the other medicine bottles except one. A small white jade bottle, push the stopper open with your thumb, and pour the pills into your mouth.
The pills that can be carried by the governor of Dongchang are of course the highest quality pills. Some are for healing, some for pain relief, some for avoiding poisons, some for repelling insects, and some are supposed to be reserved for the emperor. Enjoy the "Elixir".
This elixir has a great reputation in the world and is extremely difficult to refine. The royal family and princes even thought that it could restore youth and prolong life. However, in fact, there are residues of mercury poison inside. Even if it is eaten by ordinary people, it will last for a while. It's exciting, but if you take one pill a year for a few more years, there will probably be no good end.
Only people with profound internal energy can temporarily restore their physical strength by eating one. They will also have sharp ears and eyes, a relaxed mind, and sharp six senses. They will be able to slowly excrete the poison afterwards.
Xiao Shaofan watched him take the medicine, his face moved, and he tried to step forward. Unexpectedly, his toes only moved a little, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground.
"Xiao Su..."
His voice was hoarse and almost inaudible. He couldn't finish a sentence and could only shout as hard as he could in his heart.
Hurry up! !
There were only three walls left in this ruins. One of the walls was hit by something again and was shaking endlessly.
Cao Wubo stroked his chest and felt his inner strength churning and recovering. His ear strength was about to return to its peak. He heard the sound of his skull cracking and the scream when his body hit the wall.
That's Bai Qi's voice.
Immediately afterwards, the wall began to tilt inward and was about to collapse.
While the wall was tilting, the height was lowered, and the hair of the man outside could already be seen.
Uncle Cao Wu stared at that position, his breathing suddenly stopped, and he suddenly took action. The sword light was like a silver sword, and he slashed ten steps away with one sword.
Outside the house.
The broken earth wall at the bottom suddenly split into two halves vertically in the middle. The dazzling sword light shined through, unstoppable, shining on Su Hanshan's face!
