Chapter 39 Ripples
……

The passing geese leave sounds, the wind leaves traces, the water ripples, and the waves leave patterns.

The so-called ripples are the wave patterns formed when the internal strength explodes and the power pours out like a tide.

When the moves are performed in accordance with the rhythm of this ripple, the explosive power of internal energy can be displayed and released most fully and thoroughly.

Wu Wen held the spear in his hand and performed the shaking spear technique.

Resonating with the spear, the body and mind become one, the frequencies blend together, as if man and spear are one.

The spear was thrust out, swift and powerful.

Under the action of elastic force, the gun body does not move forward in a straight line, but swings in a spiral arc.

It was not because Wu Wen lacked control that caused the spear to be unstable, but because he gave up the rigid control of the spear and allowed it to swing naturally with his internal strength.

This is the ripple attack of the spear.

It's like drawing a bow and drawing an arrow. Once the bowstring is released, the arrow will fly out into the air under the explosive force.

When flying in the air, the arrow does not move forward in a straight line without any bends. Instead, the tip and tail of the arrow naturally swing left and right in the air, forming a graceful arc.

The stability and power of an arrow lies in the two ingenious balance points in its flight trajectory, which enable the arrow to maintain a stable flight while maximizing its potential power.

The rhythm contained in this trajectory and swing is the embodiment of ripples.

If you force the arrow to remain straight, it would be equivalent to suppressing its own toughness, which would destroy its coordination and balance, greatly reducing the power of the arrow.

clang!
The tip of the gun collided violently with the opponent's sword.

This time, not only was Wu Wen not suppressed by the opponent's attack force, but he allowed the spear to absorb the opponent's strength so that it was no longer transmitted to his hand.

If you observe carefully, you can find that the spear in his hand is shaking more and more violently, but it seems to maintain a special rhythm and frequency.

When the amplitude of the gun body remains the same as the ripple.

At this moment, the spear will be like a spring, not only absorbing the opponent's attack force, but also converting it into its own accumulated power.

As Wu Wen exerted force again, the power of the spear became even more fierce.

Faced with this sudden change, the general was unable to react for a moment.

He could never have imagined that Wu Wen, who seemed to know nothing about internal energy just now, could use it so skillfully at this moment.

Resisting hastily.

But Wu Wen's attacks were like an antelope hanging on a horn, each time accurately hitting his weaknesses and flaws, making him feel very frustrated.

When riding on a horse, your movements are greatly restricted.

The enemy hurriedly reined in their horses and turned around, wanting to retreat, and then use the advantage of the cavalry charge to capture Wu Wen.

However, how could he achieve his wish?

When two people meet on a narrow road, the most taboo thing is to have the idea of retreating.

Just when the opponent wanted to retreat, Wu Wen first made a feint, and when the opponent raised his knife to block, the spear in his hand suddenly hit the neck of his mount.

The warhorse let out a long neigh and then fell to the ground with a bang.

The general riding on the warhorse lost his balance in an instant. Just as he was trying to steady himself, Wu Wen's spear suddenly attacked him again like a shadow.

The series of defeats caught him off guard and he had no time to resist.

A flash of cold light passed by, and the tip of the gun stabbed him between the eyebrows.

With an incredible expression on his face, he fell to the ground unwillingly.

"call…"

Wu Wen was breathing heavily. Although he had defeated the powerful enemy in front of him, he was exhausted at this moment.

Long periods of thinking and fighting made him feel dizzy, and the hair on his head seemed to stand up, like countless small needles prickling his scalp.

"Master Jiu, hurry up!"

Seeing this, Master Zhu Jiu, who had been hiding nearby, rushed forward.

The two men supported each other and staggered out of the camp.

"Dong dong dong~ dong dong dong~"

Suddenly, he heard a heavy sound of horse hooves. Wu Wen's heart tightened and he looked up.

In the darkness, a group of cavalry came galloping like the wind. His heartbeat accelerated, but when he saw that it was the Tang Dynasty cavalry, he breathed a sigh of relief.

His whole body went limp, luckily he had the spear in his hand to support him, otherwise he would have almost collapsed to the ground.

"kill!"

With a loud slogan, the cavalry rushed into the camp like a tiger descending from the mountain and quickly dealt with the invading enemy.

Their movements were swift and decisive, as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.

Among these cavalrymen, there was one figure that stood out.

He was a young man wearing chain mail, holding a spear and leading the charge.

Even when facing hordes of enemies ahead, he is invincible as if he were in an empty space.

The dozen or so cavalrymen following behind him worked closely together, quickly clearing out all the enemies in front of them like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

"We're saved!" Jiu Ye said with a look of relief on his face.

"Yes!"

Wu Wen also sighed.

Pacific the camp.

"Everyone who can still fight, follow me!"

The young cavalry leader shouted loudly and gathered together the remaining men who were able to fight.

Wu Wen and Zhu Jiuye were naturally unable to fight again.

"Come with me!"

The young man looked at everyone, then picked up his gun, jumped on his horse, and led everyone to gallop out of the camp into the darkness.

Those who stayed behind cleaned up the battlefield and treated the wounded.

Wu Wen helped Zhu Jiuye treat his wounds and built a simple tent, where the two fell into a deep sleep.

Until the next morning.

Wu Wen walked out of the tent and looked around. He saw that the camp was in a mess after the night attack last night, and there were traces of fighting everywhere.

Everyone dragged their tired bodies and slowly marched towards the central army camp like the remnants of a defeated army.

When they were approaching the gate of the village, it suddenly opened and a group of cavalry came towards them.

"Where is the leader?" the leader asked loudly.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. The leading captain of the barracks had been killed in the night attack last night.

"Since there is no one to lead the army, you will obey my orders."

The leader announced loudly: "Everyone, please line up, don't make any noise, and follow me into the village."

With a shout of "Gee", the cavalrymen led everyone into the village gate in an orderly manner.

Inside the towering village gate are rows of tents, with the internal roads well-planned, dividing the tents into different areas.

Wu Wen walked and observed carefully along the way, and found that the construction of these tents was not random, but contained the structure of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, which echoed each other while maintaining independence.

Came to a shanty town.

Many wounded soldiers gathered here and were taken care of by special doctors.

"You stay here first. I will make arrangements for you after I report to the general." After the cavalry leader said this, he led the team away.

Wu Wen looked around. Although the conditions here were not as good as the tent area they saw when they came here, it was finally a place where they could stay and rest without worry.

People flocked into the shantytown and found places to rest.

Wu Wen and Zhu Jiuye also found a relatively clean place to lie down.

"Master Jiu, let me help you clean your wound."

Although Mr. Zhu Jiu's injuries last night were serious, fortunately they were treated in time. Now he just needs to rest well and he will recover slowly.
