Chapter 14: Desperate
Xie Quan looked solemn and rushed to greet him.
clang!
Xie Quan's spear came first and hit Huanshou Daodao. A burst of internal energy came out from the tip of the spear, breaking Zhang Jinkui's strength.
Zhang Jinkui was well prepared this time. He just took a step back and forcibly stopped his body. The sword in his hand changed from chopping to cutting. He used the tiger's claws to sweep towards Xie Quan and shouted:
"Li Yong, I'll trap him, you attack him quickly on the left!"
Zhang Jinkui knew that Guanshi Li practiced second-rate skills, and even if he failed to break through his inner strength, he was still much stronger than him, so he tried his best to entangle Xie Quan and create opportunities for him.
But while Zhang Jinkui was fighting to the death, Guanshi Li retreated violently and used Qinggong footwork to rush towards the mouth of the valley!
Zhang Jinkui’s eyes are splitting:
"Li Yong, if you run away from the battle, you will die badly!"
Xie Quan took the opportunity to attack:
"Haha, Zhang Jinkui, are you still resisting? Li Yong has already escaped. You alone are definitely no match for me!"
Zhang Jinkui was shocked, and Xie Quan Nei forcefully opened the ring with his sword. The gun struck him in the chest and abdomen, blood spurted from his mouth, and he roared:
"I have been in the world for more than 20 years. If I were afraid of death, I wouldn't be called Mang King Kong! Damn it, I will fight with you. Even if I die, I will skin you!"
With a ferocious look on his face, he raised his sword to kill Xie Quan again, looking like a mad tiger, not caring.
Zhang Jinkui was fighting for his life, and even though Xie Quan had the upper hand, he couldn't defeat him for a while.
When the two were fighting together, Manager Li took the opportunity to rush to Wu Dong's side, stabbed out with his sword, and shouted at the same time:
"Attack with all your strength!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Cong and the other three used all their strength to attack Wu Dong.
Wu Dong was besieged by several people, including Guanshi Li, a peak marrow refining warrior, and had to retreat.
Wang Cong and the others were overjoyed and wanted to continue their attack, but Manager Li turned around and ran towards the mouth of the valley, saying sternly:
"Stop fighting, rush out with me!"
Wang Cong and Zheng Jun immediately used Fu Hujin's built-in Qinggong Fuhu Step to follow Guanshi Li, but Zhao Shan was startled and froze on the spot.
Manager Li turned around and glared at him:
"Why don't you run for your life! Don't you want to live?"
Zhao Shan gritted his teeth and followed.
The four of them rushed towards the entrance of the valley, and all the bandits they encountered along the way were stabbed to death by Manager Li.
Along the way, he kept shouting:
"The Black Wind Stronghold is extremely difficult to defeat. Only by rushing out of the valley can we have a chance of survival!"
The escort was already on the verge of collapse. After hearing this, their morale was completely depleted. With a shout, they turned around and rushed towards the mouth of the valley.
Chen Yuan had been paying attention to Manager Li's movements. When he saw this, he suddenly burst out with a huge burst of force and killed the Bone Refining Bandit in front of him with a knife. He followed behind the four of them using the Crouching Tiger Step.
Wu Dong's expression changed, he raised his knife and chased after him, chopped down the two guards who were at the end, and shouted:
"Guard the valley entrance! Stop them!"
The bandits of Heifeng Village tightly wrapped around the Baibingtang guards beside them, while the bandits guarding the entrance of the valley rushed up with a ferocious smile, slashing at them with their knives as if they were cutting grass, and the valley was filled with screams.
The guards had lost their fighting spirit and just wanted to escape. They had become lambs to be slaughtered. Killing them was not much harder than killing a pig.
But they were not useless. In order to intercept them, the formation of the bandits guarding the entrance of the valley became much looser, giving Guanshi Li and others the opportunity to rush into the formation.
Steward Li thrust out the Qiu Shui Sword in his hand, using simple and clumsy moves. The sword seemed to be slow but was actually fast. He stabbed several bandits to death one after another and shouted in a low voice:
"Don't worry about others, follow me and kill quickly!"
The four bone-refining warriors Chen Yuan, Zhao Shan, Wang Cong, and Zheng Jun also went all out, and the moves in their hands were extremely fierce. Bandits fell one by one along the way, sharing the great pressure for Manager Li.
After a while, the five people rushed to the entrance of the valley. They were only a dozen steps away from rushing out of the valley.
But at this moment, Wu Dong caught up from behind and slashed at Zheng Jun who was at the back.
A sinister look flashed across Zheng Jun's face, and he suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed Chen Yuan's shoulder in front of him, and threw him behind him with a sudden force.
But Chen Yuan seemed to have expected it. He turned around and hit Zheng Jun hard on the forearm with an elbow!
Click!
The force of this elbow was so heavy that Zheng Jun's forearm was broken and he let out a scream:
"Ah! You...uh uh..."
He suddenly staggered two steps, holding a knife in his hand to support the ground, and then managed to stand. When he lowered his head, he saw an arrow sticking out of his left chest, shining with blood.
puff!
Wu Dong caught up from behind and swung his knife across Zheng Jun's neck.
Zheng Jun fell softly. Jiang Feng in the distance smiled coldly, took out the second feather arrow, took a brief aim, and suddenly pulled out the bowstring.
Whoosh!
The arrow shot out quickly, pointing directly at Guanshi Li.
This arrow was perfectly timed. Manager Li had just stabbed a Bone Refining Bandit to death. His old strength had gone, but new strength had not yet emerged. In his haste, he could only reluctantly turn around to avoid the vital parts of his heart.
laugh!
The feather arrow hit Manager Li's right arm. He grunted, shook his wrist, and the Qiu Shui Sword in his hand almost fell to the ground.
Whoosh!
Jiang Feng then shot a third arrow, pointing directly at Guanshi Li's chest and abdomen.
Manager Li had lost his dodge space and was about to be killed by an arrow.
Zhao Shan stopped, rushed over, and exclaimed:
"Master!"
Chen Yuan's eyes flashed and he slowed down slightly.
Wang Cong was closest to Manager Li, but after he was hit by the arrow, he did not stop. Instead, he accelerated his speed and was about to pass Manager Li.
At the critical moment of life and death, a ruthless look flashed in Guanshi Li's eyes. He waved his left hand vigorously, and a long and indistinguishable white silk thread flew out from the ring on his hand, wrapped around Wang Cong's arm, and pulled hard behind him!
Wang Cong was like a wild horse caught in a lasso while speeding. He lost his balance and swerved to the right, just in front of Manager Li.
laugh!
The arrow passed through Wang Cong's left chest, and the arrow came out of his body.
Zhao Shan suddenly paused and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
Chen Yuan's expression also changed slightly, and the hand holding the knife subconsciously tightened.
The pace of the two slowed down, but the bandits of Heifeng Village who were guarding the entrance of the valley cowered aside and did not dare to attack.
The only bone-refining bandit had died under the sword of Manager Li just now. The remaining bandits were only in the skin-refining realm and did not dare to provoke the three of them.
Wang Cong's eyes widened and he stared at Manager Li with a look of reluctance on his face, blood pouring out of his mouth:
"Uh uh... Li Yong, you, you must die..."
Manager Li looked stern, flicked his left wrist, and threw Wang Cong towards Wu Dong who was chasing him.
Wu Dong struck out with his left hand, knocking Wang Cong aside, and then used his strength to attack Guanshi Li.
The blade cut through the air and made a sharp whistle, but Manager Li's expression remained unchanged as he raised his left wrist slightly.
call out!
A three-inch short arrow shot out from the cuff under his wrist, almost silently, as fast as lightning, and pointed directly at Wu Dong's throat!
Wu Dong couldn't avoid it, the hair on his body stood on end, he roared wildly, raised his left hand suddenly, and blocked it in front of him.
laugh!
The short arrow penetrated Wu Dong's left arm, bringing out a burst of blood.
Manager Li turned around and ran towards the mouth of the valley. Chen Yuan jumped to follow him, not forgetting to turn his head and shout to Zhao Shan:
"Brother, follow me quickly!"
Zhao Shan was so excited that he didn't care about anything else. He followed Manager Li and rushed to the mouth of the valley, but quietly distanced himself from him.
The bandits bullied the weak and feared the strong. Seeing that even Wu Dong was injured, they did not dare to stop the three of them.
But Wu Dong was watching from behind, and they couldn't get out of the way directly. They could only resist twice symbolically, then pretend to be defeated and get out of the way.
The three stewards Li were eager to escape and did not bother with them. After the bandits retreated, they immediately rushed out of the valley entrance.
Wu Dong looked at the three people's running backs, but did not catch up immediately. Instead, he raised his left arm, pulled out the short arrow, and carefully inspected the wound.
The blood spurted out from the wound and was bright red. After a gentle sniff, there was no peculiar smell, and Wu Dong felt relieved.
At this time, Jiang Feng came to the mouth of the valley, watched Wu Dong check the wound, and said with concern:
"Brother Dong, are you okay?"
Wu Dong tore off a piece of cloth from his waist, bandaged the wound randomly, and grinned:
"It's okay. There's no poison on the sleeve arrow. Fortunately, I reacted in time and didn't hurt any vital parts. Just go back to the village and see Doctor Mo for a check."
Jiang Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then said murderously:
"Brother said that the people from the Hundred Soldiers Hall cannot be left behind. I will lead people to catch up and kill them all!"
Wu Dong shook his head:
"No, I'll just go. The mountains are densely forested and it's difficult for you to use your archery skills. It's better to stay in the valley and guard the entrance of the valley to prevent anyone from escaping."
Jiang Feng hesitated and said:
"Your injury..."
Wu Dong waved his left arm nonchalantly:
"The skin injury is fine, but Li Yong was shot in the right arm by your arrow and his strength was greatly reduced. If I bring three more bone-refining brothers, I will be sure to be foolproof."
"That's fine." Jiang Feng nodded and looked up at Xie Quan, who was still fighting fiercely with Zhang Jinkui. "Zhang Jinkui is really brave. I'll go and help him."
Wu Dong laughed loudly:
"Then if Li Yong and Zhang Jinkui team up, there will be a hard fight, but who would have thought that he turned out to be a coward, and he really lost the name of Liuyang Sword in vain! But this calculation was in vain, in this deep mountain and old forest , He can’t escape from my grasp!”
…
Half an hour later, in a dense mountain forest, Manager Li and the other three split the thorns and vines in front of them and climbed up the mountain with difficulty.
The black costumes on their bodies turned into pieces of rags, and many small wounds were cut on the surface of their skin by thorns, dripping with blood.
Behind the three people, Wu Dong's shout could be faintly heard:
"Follow, don't let them run away..."
After the three escaped from the valley, Manager Li simply treated the wound on his right arm with golden sore medicine, swallowed a hemostatic pill, and Wu Dong led his men to catch up.
The guide who knew the path died in the valley. The three of them did not dare to take the mountain road they came on, so they could only choose a random direction and escape into the forest.
The mountain forest was covered with thorns and vines, and the three of them had to cut their way out and suffered a lot.
Wu Dong led the bandits in hot pursuit, forcing them not to stop.
However, the speed between the two parties is still getting closer and closer. Now that they have escaped, they are about to be overtaken.
Click!
Zhao Shan struggled to split a vine, and the three of them came to an open space covered with rocks halfway up the mountain.
Manager Li stopped, panted heavily, and said:
"We can't run away anymore. We don't know the mountain roads, but Heifeng Village has been operating deep in the Chimang Mountains. We are familiar with the terrain and know how to track in the mountains and forests. If we continue like this, we will be caught up sooner or later!"
