Chapter 1822: Rogue Bandits
Zhang Xuezhou did not expect that he would be used as bait.
He was obviously caught in a whirlpool of confrontation between the masters of the evil country and the local masters of the Han Dynasty.
The four sergeants are not mediocre, but are highly skilled in martial arts and good at cooperation.
Among these people, the carriage driver Zhang An can only be used to drive carriages, and his strength is inferior to that of the other sergeants.
But even though they came prepared, the difficulty of the masters from the Fierce Country was beyond everyone's expectations.
A sergeant was accidentally knocked off his horse as soon as they made contact, while the sergeant who shot from a long distance was at the bottom during the exchange of shots. The two sergeants in a head-on confrontation were only on par with their opponents.
It wasn't until he used Yang Soul to fly into the air and shout to disrupt the formation, attracting the shooter's firepower, and coupled with Zhang An's charge, that the fierce master who was good at the scimitar was killed.
The opponent borrowed the demonic power of the snake demon. In addition to being unusually flexible and good at strange attacks and killings, the opponent had several lavender pustules on his body and spewed countless venom before his death.
Zhang An sprayed his back, and the sword-wielding sergeant got the venom into his eyes. He rolled on the ground with one eye in his hands. The other sergeant who fought back with his carbine was far away from him, so there was no further trouble.
It took only a short moment for one death and two injuries to kill the master of the evil country. This was also a common battle loss ratio between the Han Dynasty and the people of the evil country.
The people of the evil country are not afraid of death, and they have to support others before they die, and they all have demon power to assist them. This kind of domineering style gives many Han people of the orthodox school a headache.
"Hmph, the sixth arrow!"
Zhang Xuezhou Yangpo made a dull sound in mid-air.
While Zhang An was rushing in, he used his Yang Soul to transform himself out of the carriage and leap into the air, rarely attracting attention.
At this time, he was speaking loudly in mid-air, and his body was temporarily in a risk-free state.
"Your Excellency is an expert, why bother bullying the old and helpless people like us!"
In the woods, an old and bitter voice sounded, and Zhang Xuezhou raised his head in mid-air and said coldly. He responded with a cold hum.
He looked down and saw that everyone was killing the master of the evil country who wielded the scimitar. His face was old, there were many pustules and swellings on his body, and various degrees of ulcers appeared in various parts of his body.
The master of archery from the Fierce Country is slightly younger, but he is also close to sixty years old. He is obviously a monk but his appearance is older than that of Zhang Xuezhou's parents.
The opponent's arms were an extremely abnormal blue-black color, and there was a bulge on his forehead, which could not be covered up even with a bamboo hat or cloth wrap.
After instilling energy and spirit and shooting six arrows, this master from the evil country found it difficult to break Zhang Xuezhou's body. He couldn't help but feel a little humble and began to beg for mercy in jerky Chinese.
“You damn evil people, you are old and unable to control your demonic power, so you ran to our Han Dynasty and did all kinds of evil and heinous things.” The gun-wielding sergeant shouted: “You regard the Han Dynasty as the Where!”
“He only has three arrows in his hand!”
A hundred steps away, the sergeant who was shooting arrows from behind shouted.
"Are you old enough to be good at demon power?"
In midair, Zhang Xuezhou felt that this situation seemed familiar.
When he thought of the elderly people in Xijing City, he came back to his senses.
Whether it is genetic evolution or borrowing demonic power, there are obviously some problems after getting older.
Or you may be imprisoned in a mansion for your old age, or you may enter other countries in advance to seek the rest of your old age. These are all choices under different national conditions and social development.
"I promise you to shoot ten arrows, please draw the bow!"
Zhang Xuezhou said quietly.
This master of the evil country who is good at shooting is the most threatening, so that he dare not use complex magic techniques while sitting in the carriage.
As long as the arrows in the opponent's quiver are empty, the opponent's threat will be greatly reduced.
Although those who are good at shooting also have the ability to fight in close combat, their threat is not worth mentioning compared to long-range shooting.
Zhang Xuezhou once again tempted the opponent to shoot arrows, which made the old man from Ji Guo hide in the jungle look struggling.
"Since you promised me ten arrows, you should let me survive until I finish shooting ten arrows!" He thought for a few seconds, and then withdrew the bow and arrow as if he were risking his life. He came back and turned to face the sergeant who was approaching with a spear, which made the sergeant with the spear shout.
"Senior, these thugs attacked passing business groups and official convoys twelve times in half a year, causing nearly a hundred casualties. I hope seniors will not spare any effort to get rid of them and return this land. Have a peaceful journey!”
“It’s up to you to take care of what I do!”
Zhang Xuezhou replied angrily.
If he had this ability, he would have run down and killed the opponent long ago.
Unless his Yang Soul incarnation is fully formed, Zhang Xuezhou can freely use the magic power in his body. However, the current scene does not give him time to fully transform his Yang Soul. On the other hand, Zhang Xuezhou does not want to show it at all. The transformed Yang soul will avoid future troubles.
His body was gray at this time, and even his face looked blurry. Coupled with the high altitude, he raised his head upwards and changed his tone to hide his identity.
Except for Rong Tianding, who was in the carriage as if facing a formidable enemy, no one knew who was talking loudly in mid-air.
"You stupid people are collaborating with the people of the evil country to cause trouble. At this time, you can still turn around to ambush the people of the evil country. If you continue to follow these gangsters, you will have no return!"
Seeing that it was difficult to persuade Zhang Xuezhou, the gun-wielding sergeant started again To persuade many ragged bandits.
"As long as you can cooperate with us in killing this beast, you will not only get the 'section' of a new identity, but you will also get land and houses for farming in Nanyang, plus money for each of you to live on!"
The gun sergeant spoke repeatedly to persuade, which caused many bandits in the jungle to show their heads, and there were many bandits who approached the old man from the evil country with a knife.
“You actually believe what the officers and soldiers say, you are confused~”
The old man from the evil country hiding in the woods saw the bandits approaching, and someone pointed their bow and arrow at him, which made him scream.
"They are lieutenant colonels in the army. It is impossible for them to handle these things for you. They are just lying to you!"
"Nanyang Du Zhou is under the command of the Nanyang Prefect. We will ensure that it can be achieved. This promise! "
When the old man from the evil country tried to persuade the bandits again, the soldier holding a hard bow at the rear lifted his mask, revealed his broad face, and announced his identity.
“Just give up on this idea and pay back the sins you have done in the past today!”
The spear-wielding sergeant shouted. He used his spear to sweep away the vines. After removing several animal traps, he couldn't help but be more careful as he moved forward and approached.
“Everyone come together!”
A hundred steps away, Du Zhou also shouted.
These rogue bandits are not very strong. If they get close to a master who is good at close combat, they will be killed, but if they get close to someone who is good at long-range shooting, they will bring countless troubles.
Du Zhou raised his head. He glanced at the figure in the sky with great envy. Seeing that the other person did not look back, he had to move forward cautiously.
When passing by the carriage, Du Zhou even called out "Master Dongfang" in a low voice.
Seeing that there was no response to his call, Du Zhou couldn't help but feel disappointed.
As everyone continued to approach, the old man from the evil country took out a short knife from his waist.
He glanced at the surrounding jungle.
This was originally a good hiding place for him to ambush officials and merchants, but now it has become a terrain that traps him.
If you can't fly or lack the ability to climb, it will be difficult to travel far in this jungle area with weeds and thorns.
And some animal traps on the ground used to deal with enemies add to the trouble of escape.
This made him look desperate.
Even if the great cultivator passing by in the sky didn't intervene, it would be difficult for him to break through the encirclement today.
Evil thoughts continued in his head, and the faces of the people who kept approaching him became more and more sinister.
But suddenly, he suddenly remembered something, and his legs quickly exerted their strength and began to run outside, directly towards the escorting carriage.
