Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1601 Wind Chasing Arc Arrow
  Seeing that all his men were standing still, Bai Tu was furious. He kicked the soldier closest to him on the buttocks, blew his beard and shouted:
  "Whatever you are doing standing still, let me do it for you!"

"Zhong Limei disobeys military orders and shall be executed in accordance with military law!"

The kicked soldier staggered forward and killed Zhong Limei.

Upon seeing this, the other soldiers also made up their minds to take action.

As the saying goes, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one, not to mention that Captain Zhong is only on the same level as his boss.

When things come to a close, they have to choose a side. As for which side to choose... there is no doubt about it.

Zhong Limei was furious when he saw that these soldiers dared to take action.

What made him most embarrassed was that he couldn't stop so many soldiers by himself, and innocent people would definitely die.

But now is not the time to think so much, just save as much as you can.

Just when the two sides were on the verge of a fight, a huge hammer suddenly flew out from the forest next to the road, connected with a long chain, and headed straight for the imperial soldiers.

The solid hammer head, which was larger than a human head, was full of power and hit the unsuspecting Imperial soldiers hard, knocking down a bunch of people in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, an almost shirtless muscular man jumped out of the forest, jumped to the hammer, picked it up, and then turned around to look at the many Qin soldiers.

There is no doubt that this strong man is a big hammer.

Bai Tu, who was shocked by the sudden change, asked hesitantly:

"You...you...who...are you!?"

The reaction speed of these soldiers was not slow. They immediately abandoned the refugees who had no ability to resist and hurriedly lined up to surround the big hammer.

At this time, a heroic voice sounded from behind Bai Tu:
  "The person who wants your life!"

Bai Tu was so frightened that he hurriedly looked back and saw Long Qie, who had put on a suit of armor again and was holding a dragon-patterned stainless steel spear.

Before he could think more about the current situation, two people jumped out of the forest again. One was wearing white clothes and the other was wearing a Taoist robe. They were Gao Jianli and Xiaoyaozi.

The two of them were separated, and as soon as they came up, they cleanly cleared away the few soldiers still surrounding the refugees, eliminating the last hidden danger, and then worked together with the big hammer to protect the many refugees.

Seeing that the refugee crisis was over, Long Qie no longer hesitated, and with a wave of his spear, he directly killed Bai Tu, who was protected by many soldiers.

"The lackey of Qin who kills innocent people indiscriminately must accept his fate!"

When the enemy came to kill, the imperial soldiers naturally would not kill them at the slightest opportunity, but each picked up their weapons and faced Long Qie.

Facing these ordinary soldiers, Long Qie didn't take them seriously at all. He waved the dragon-marked spear in his hand a few times casually, picking, smashing, poking or swinging, and swept past more than a dozen soldiers as if they were in an uninhabited land. In a blink of an eye, they were all lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

After clearing the first batch of miscellaneous soldiers, Long Qie pointed his spear directly at Bai Tu:

"Hmph! Capture the thief first, capture the king, and suffer death!"

Seeing Long Qie being so brave, Bai Tu was frightened.

Although he is a high-ranking captain, he is actually an all-round idiot. Whether it is military skills or martial arts, he is a rookie among rookies.

The other party kills his soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables, so killing him is just as easy.

In panic and fear, Bai Tu could only wave the sword in his hand randomly, staggered back, and at the same time shouted to his men:

"Come on! Come on! Stop him!"

As he said that, he also pushed out the badass deputy beside him.

Speaking of this deputy, although he has always played a flattering role, he is also brave now and really dares to charge at Long Qie.

Then... he was shot to death.

Like his boss, he is a straw bag among straw bags, and there is nothing good to say about the ending.

Long Qie, who was not delayed in the slightest, was about to swing his spear to kill Bai Tu. At this moment, Zhong Limei blocked his progress and blocked Long Qie's spear with his long sword.

Seeing Zhong Limei coming out to stir up trouble, Long Qie frowned under his helmet and asked sternly:
  "You want to save this thief...he just wanted to kill you too!?"

Zhongli was unmoved and responded calmly:

"Bai Tu is an officer of our empire after all. Even if he commits crimes, he should be punished by the court. How can we let you rebels kill him at will?"

This is the standard imperial soldier - one code equals one code!
  Although according to Zhong Limei's own ideas, he should directly deal with it with military law and kill Bai Tu on the spot.

However, it was not the Mo family's turn to be rebellious - he didn't know Long Qie, but he had seen Gao Jianli's wanted notice.

When Bai Tu heard Zhong Limei's words, he was immediately overjoyed, "Yes! Yes! Zhong Xiaowei is so right."

"Help me hold them off, and I'll call for reinforcements right now!"

After saying that, he immediately fled to the town under the protection of the remaining soldiers.

Upon seeing this, Big Iron Hammer wanted to pursue him, but was stopped by Xiaoyaozi:
  "Don't chase poor criminals. The most important thing is to protect the safety of these people."

Immediately afterwards, a low and roaring horn sounded in the town. Gao Jianli frowned upon hearing the sound and reminded Long Qie, "Qin army reinforcements will arrive soon, and the battle must be fought quickly."

"Don't worry!" Long Qie responded with a smile, then turned his spear, picked up Zhong Limei's sword, and pierced the opponent's heart.

Zhong Limei was not bad either. He turned over and jumped to avoid the spear point, then slashed the sword towards Long Qie's throat with his backhand.

Seeing this, Long Qie lowered his front hand and raised his back hand, and deflected Zhong Limei's attack with the end of the gun handle.

Then, the two of them were fighting together, the shadow of the gun wrapped around the edge of the sword, making a constant clanging sound.

Gao Jianli and others who were watching the battle could see that Zhong Limei was obviously mediocre in swordsmanship and could only barely hold up against Long Qie's spear.

But since Long Qie didn't kill him, he couldn't take off this difficult bone for a while.

Seeing the anxious situation, Sledgehammer couldn't help but said:
  "If you need help, just say it."

At this time, Long Qie happened to deflect Zhong Limei's thrust, jumped back and pulled away, stopped temporarily, and immediately replied after hearing the words:
  "No! Whoever helps me is my enemy!"

It can be seen that Long Qie enjoys Zhong Limei as his opponent.

Zhong Limei raised his sword and said arrogantly:
  "You're welcome, you can just come together!"

Gao Jianli and the other three couldn't help but look at each other in confusion. Long Qie laughed out loud when he heard this, "What a loud tone...take my move first!"

After finishing his words, he clenched the spear in his palms with both hands. The golden true energy hovered over the gun body, resembling a swimming dragon, flowing endlessly.

Immediately afterwards, Long Qie stepped forward and jumped up. His whole body was circling and spinning in the air. The spear in his hand shone with a thick golden light. The dragon-like true energy drew a series of close arcs and rushed towards Zhongli. Go, the gun is as fast as fire, and it's coming in a blink of an eye.

Zhong Limei hurriedly raised his sword to block, but facing Long Qie's powerful spear, the fine iron sword in his hand was as fragile as grass and was directly cut off by the shot.

In a hurry, Zhong Limei had to jump back to avoid the shot.

As soon as he landed, Long Qie turned his spear with both hands, and the tip of the spear suddenly plunged into the ground. The heavy force caused the ground to crack.

Immediately afterwards, Zhong Limei noticed a shaking and shaking feeling under his feet. He immediately felt something bad and hurriedly took off again, leaping into the air in one fell swoop.

Just when Zhong Limei took off, a dragon-shaped gilded true energy broke through the ground under his feet and rose into the sky.

Seeing that his attack failed again, Long Qie immediately launched a pursuit and also jumped straight towards Zhong Limei in mid-air.

At this time, Zhong Limei drew out the long bow from his back, touched the quiver with his left hand, and three arrows were placed on the bow and shot out suddenly.

The three arrows formed a triangle shape, spiraling through the air and flying towards Long Qie, arriving in an instant.

The speed of arrows is much faster than that of humans. Dragon Qie was the first to strike, but he arrived after him. He had no choice but to give up his attack. The entire body of his waist and horse became one, and he exerted all his strength in a coordinated manner. In an instant, he knocked his body sideways, spun around several times, and evaded at the same time with the slightest difference. Three arrows were fired, and then they fell to the ground. When he landed, he did not forget to praise his opponent:
  "Good archery!"

Zhong Limei also landed smoothly and replied to Long Qie with one word:

"middle!"

I saw that after the three arrows passed through the dragon, two of them plunged into the trees behind normally according to their original trajectories, but the other one suddenly turned in the air, drawing half a big circle and half a small circle. The dragon is in the middle of the forehead.

The force on the arrow made Long Qie lose his balance and staggered back a few steps.

The eyelids of Sledgehammer and others twitched when they saw this scene.

If this is solid, Long Qie may be a bit dangerous.

But it is obviously not solid, otherwise Long Qie would not be as simple as staggering - the arrow in the eyebrow should have jumped into the street and died on the spot!

After Long Qie regained his balance, he reached out and pulled out the arrow - the arrow only pierced his helmet, and it was the thickest part above his eyebrows, without piercing the helmet.

After taking a look at the arrow, Long Qie reached out and pointed at Zhong Limei with the arrow:

"Go find a weapon and come back!"

Zhong Limei shook his head, "No need, I'll let you go this time."

Long Qie's eyes widened and he asked with a bit of laughter:

"You and the four of us, you want to let us go?"

Zhongli replied nonchalantly, "The arrow just now could have penetrated your eyebrow, but I raised it an inch on purpose."

Don't worry about whether I can beat the four of you, just tell me whether I withheld the arrow, right?

Long Qie was speechless for a moment.

It seemed that he had taken advantage of it.

But to be more serious, it was precisely because the arrow actually did not pose a threat that it could hit Long Qie. Otherwise, even if Long Qie had no time to hide, Xiaoyaozi and the others would not sit idly by and watch.

As outsiders, they would not be unable to react.

Gao Jianli said at this time, "The Qin army is coming."

The implication was to let Zhong Limei go and retreat quickly.

Although they are all staunch anti-imperialists, they are not willing to shout and kill every imperial soldier.
  At least, they delayed for a while before they arrived, otherwise these people would have suffered some casualties.

For this reason, there is no harm in letting him go today.

Zhong Limei made another request at this time:

"There are conditions for letting you go."

He turned and glanced at the refugees:
  "You must leave with these villagers... The imperial reinforcements will arrive soon, and Bai Tu will probably attack them by then, and I may not be able to stop them."

"Okay!" Long Qie put away his spear and responded, "This is what I'm saying to you, this time, I'll let you go too!"

Zhong Limei, however, had no intention of getting close to Gao Jianli and the others. He replied coldly, "You are important criminals of the empire after all. Next time you let me see you, Zhong Limei will show no mercy!"

Sledgehammer relaxed his shoulders and muttered, "Humph, I don't need your mercy!"

Gao Jianli and Xiaoyaozi didn't speak, but nodded towards Zhong Limei, which was regarded as recognition of his character.

Then, without further delay, they quickly began to evacuate the refugees and leave the place.

When these people left, many people expressed their gratitude to Zhong Limei, including a beautiful woman with a delicate face.

Big Iron Hammer and the others escorted the people to leave first, with Long Qie behind. Before leaving, he couldn't help but said to Zhong Limei:

"As a soldier, you performed your duties impeccably."

"But while you are fighting for this country with your life, what is it doing?"

Zhong Limei looked at Long Qie's back intently. After hesitating for a moment, he ignored the question and just reminded:
  "Don't take the main road, try to find a remote valley that is inaccessible for them to take shelter for the time being. I will solve this matter as soon as possible."

"Oh, thank you for reminding me." Hearing that Zhong Limei didn't answer him, Long Qie didn't care. He thanked him and raised the arrow again to return it to him, "I'll give you your arrow back."

Just when he was about to throw out the arrow with his backhand, Long Qie accidentally glanced at a line of small words engraved on the arrow and was suddenly stunned.

He remembered something that Chu Nan Gong had mentioned to him before - Feng Linshan Mountain!
  And the word on this arrow happens to be - 'wind'!
  "Zhong Limei...that's your name, right?"

Zhong Limei nodded and replied loudly, "That's right!"

"Frightening bows and flying birds, chasing wind arc arrows... Next time we meet, I will return this arrow to you!"

After saying that, Long Qie dropped his arrows, picked up his spear and left with the large army.

Zhong Limei watched them disappear from his sight, then turned and returned to the town.

Now, he is going to settle the score with Bai Tu!

………………

Songhai City, woods on the outskirts.

Dressed in white and wearing a mask, Que Xie, the first-class assassin of Luowang Tianzi, was passing through the forest and seemed to be leaving Songhai.

Suddenly, she stopped.

Then, Gu Xun appeared not far in front of her.

When he saw it was Gu Xun, Xie was stunned for a moment, or rather... Ayan was stunned for a moment, then took off his mask and said something unexpectedly:
  "Father?"

Gu Xun smiled at his eldest daughter and asked, "Are you going to Dongjun?"

Ayan nodded.

Seeing this, Gu Xun couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, "The farmer's family is really a hotpot. Now everyone wants to get in and take a bite... I don't know whether to call it their honor or their misfortune."

Ayan thought for a moment and asked in surprise, "Father also plans to intervene in the crisis of the farm family?"

Gu Xunyi shrugged, "If the farm family is in crisis, it will be inconvenient for Liusha to intervene, even for me."

Ayan nodded slightly, she thought so too, so she was a little surprised.

Gu Xun changed the subject and said, "But I still sent Han Xin and Zhong Limei to Dongjun... on the grounds of taking over the protection and escorting of the Yinghuo Stone."

"Han Xin... Zhong Limei... are the two rookies in the army that you specially promoted before, right?"

"Yeah!" Gu Xun nodded, and then said, "In the situation of the farm, Zhong Limei is just an extra, dispensable, and the people of the Mo family are even more useless."

"Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang have both abilities and strength. However, they have been in the situation for a long time. It is impossible for the net to guard against them, and it may not be able to resolve the situation smoothly."

"The key, I'm afraid, still depends on Han Xin."

"You value him so much?" Ayan asked in surprise.

According to Gu Xun, Han Xin even surpassed Gui Gu Zongheng!
