Chapter 114: Ride the Horse and Charge

Geng Xuan had no time to rejoice that he had killed a powerful man whose marrow refining achievement was even higher than his with just two moves.

Because almost at the same time Cao Duo fell, Geng Xuan heard the sound of horses neighing coming from outside the cave.

Geng Xuan even heard a hint of fear in the horse's neighing.

Geng Xuan did not dare to delay for even a moment and quickly dodged out of the cave.

When traveling long distances quickly, Geng Xuan can maintain a speed of about sixteen or seventeen meters per second.

Move in short distances and at a faster speed.

Even with the burden of heavy armor, Geng Xuan rushed out of the cave in just two steps.

As soon as he came out of the cave, eleven pairs of eyes were all focused on Geng Xuan.

Among these eleven pairs of eyes, there are five people and six horses.

The six horses showed signs of anxiety, while the five people looked at him as if they had seen a ghost, full of disbelief.

However, they reacted quickly and jumped onto their horses. The horses seemed to be smart and had already turned around when they got on, ready to rush down the hillside.

They were fast, but Geng Xuan's reaction was even faster.

He waved his hands at the two people who were the farthest away and running the fastest.

Two iron gloves flew out of his hands, quickly passed through the void of dozens of steps, and hit the backs of the two men accurately.

His seemingly simple blow was surprisingly powerful, knocking the two unsuspecting men off their horses.

The two men who fell off their horses rolled a long way before they stopped.

One of them was seriously injured and unconscious, while the other struggled several times to get up, but it was all in vain.

While they were still rolling on the ground, their other companions followed in their footsteps.

Just after Geng Xuan used two pairs of iron gloves to throw out hidden weapons, he immediately took off his helmet and smashed it towards the third person who was more than sixty steps away.

The incredible force contained in the helmet knocked him directly off the horse's back.

Just as this man flew off his horse, two heavy iron lumps flew across the void of nearly seventy steps and knocked the last two men off their horses.

Those two heavy iron lumps were nothing but two iron boots.

He knocked all five men off their horses, but the six horses were not hurt at all.

Moreover, since the burden on his back was gone, he could sprint down the slope even faster.

However, Geng Xuan did not rush to catch up.

Just when the six horses were about a hundred steps away from Geng Xuan, the barking of dogs suddenly came from the grass in front of them.

The sudden barking of the dogs seemed to have activated the fear gene hidden deep in their blood. They stopped their charge as quickly as possible and prepared to sprint in the other direction.

But the next moment, they suddenly heard the barking of dogs in the new direction they had chosen.

To Geng Xuan's ears, the dog's barking sounded childish, as if the dog was acting coquettishly.

But the deterrent effect it brings to the six horses is the same.

They adjusted their direction again, trying to break through in another direction.

As expected, the sound of a dog barking could be heard again from the grass in front of them.

In this way, the six horses adjusted their direction five times in a row, but were interrupted by the barking of dogs in the grass ahead.

Forcing them to stay where they are.

When Geng Xuan walked in front of them, they had completely given up on running away and just stood there in a daze.

He let Geng Xuan hold the six reins in his hands without any resistance.

At this time, the nearby bushes moved, and Dahuang and Baxiao came out from it, barking and running to Geng Xuan.

When Dahuang and Baxiaogang appeared, the six horses became a little panicked and anxious. They snorted faster, shook their heads from side to side, and stomped their hooves on the ground.

Only when they confirmed that Dahuang and Baxiao had no intention of rushing up to bite them, but were instead surrounding the man holding their reins and acting coquettishly and fawningly, did they gradually calm down.

Geng Xuan stretched out his hand and pressed it on the forehead of a horse. He was pleasantly surprised to find that perhaps the dog-racing technique of the perfect realm had the effect of analogy, or perhaps dog-racing and horse-racing had many similarities.

He vaguely felt a faint spirituality, much weaker than that of Dahuang and Baxiao, and the anxiety and uneasiness emanating from it.

If he had the same life connection with the horse as he had with Dahuang, he would be able to comfort it easily and make it follow him wholeheartedly.

Now, Geng Xuan could only gently stroke the horse's forehead, trying to convey his comfort with the help of his actions.

Gradually, Geng Xuan clearly noticed that the anxiety and restlessness of the white horse under his control gradually calmed down.

With this experience, Geng Xuan followed the same method and pacified the other five horses.

Geng Xuan led the horses by the reins and walked back the way they came. They followed him obediently without any resistance.

At this time, Luo Qing and others had already run out of the tunnel and quickly came to Geng Xuan.

They also picked up the gloves, boots and helmet that Geng Xuan threw out.

The five people who were knocked to the ground by him were either lying down or unconscious, and he picked them up in his hands.

But seeing that he was concentrating on calming the horses, I didn't dare to go up and disturb him.

At this time, everyone said:
"Gang leader!"

"Gang leader!"

"Gang leader!"

"..."

Everyone looked at him with eyes full of admiration and eagerness.

But at the same time, I feel a little ashamed of myself.

They seemed to be blaming themselves for not being able to play any role in such a battle.

Geng Xuan pointed at the five people lying on the ground and said:

“I’ll give you a task: ask them three questions.

First, where is their convoy now?

Second, how many people are left in their team and what their approximate strengths are.

Third, is there a marrow refining realm? If so, what is it called and what are its characteristics?

...Go ahead, oh, but remember not to kill anyone."

After hearing Geng Xuan's arrangements, everyone took action immediately.

They tacitly carried the five people to different directions, preparing to interrogate them separately.

Geng Xuan led six horses, with Da Huang and Ba Xiao following closely behind him, and walked towards the tunnel.

Originally, Geng Xuan had consciously separated Da Huang from Luo Qing and the others, so that they didn't know about the existence of Da Huang and Ba Xiao.

But this time, since they were exposed in order to intercept the six horses, there was no need to hide them any longer.

If Da Huang and Ba Xiao had not shown up, he would have been able to intercept these six horses.

But it is a bit difficult to receive it intact as it is now.

It is very likely that one or two will be killed and one or two will be disabled.

After leading the horses into the tunnel, Geng Xuan asked Dahuang and Baxiao to watch over the six horses and tell them to stay still and not run around.

Geng Xuan came to Cao Duo's body and searched him.

At this moment, he had already refined the man's remaining energy and gained fifty-one points of good luck and four points of bad luck.

Following Duan Tianpeng, the former leader of the black-robed guards of Kangleji, Geng Xuan set a new record for individual gains.

After a search, apart from a bottle of ten blood-replenishing pills, a bottle of five essence pills, and two detoxification pills, there was only a sword.

The quality is comparable to the one from Wu Youren and the one from Li Qun.

For the strong ones in the Marrow Refining Realm, decoration is more important than practicality.

Geng Xuan returned to the tunnel entrance.

At this time, Luo Qing and others had also returned one after another, carrying the people on trial assigned to them.

The looks they gave Geng Xuan were filled with shock and fanaticism.

Because they not only asked the questions the gang leader required, they also learned something more.

They finally understood what kind of giant the gang leader was leading them to deal with.

But there was no fear in everyone's heart. Instead, everyone was filled with excitement and eager to try.

Because, according to what they found out from the interrogation, he was the strongest person in the convoy and posed the greatest threat to their success.

Under the arrangement of their own leader, which they could not understand at all but was absolutely ingenious, they were simply sent away with two palms and died silently in the tunnel.

"The convoy is located in the wilderness five or six miles away from Baiyuanji.

When leaving Kangleji, there were thirty-eight people in the convoy.

Yesterday at noon, a powerful marrow refining realm expert from Wuyou Palace left. He was also the strongest person in the team, and his strength should be comparable to that of Master Fan.

And Cao Duo, the one who was killed by your two palms, is the person with the strongest cultivation and strength except for the strong man from Wuyou Palace who has already left.

Then there was a man named Wu Yue, and Zang Zigao."

Geng Xuan was surprised and asked, "Zang Zigao, Zang Zigao from Kangleji Pharmacy?"

Luo Qing nodded and said:
"Yes, that's him. Thanks to the abundant resources supplied by the medicine store, he has also reached the Marrow Refining Realm. However, he has never been known for his strength. He lacks combat experience, and his cultivation talent cannot be compared with people like Duan Tianpeng and Cao Duo. He has only reached this level by relying on resources.

Wu Yue's situation is similar. He is the cousin of the master of Anleji. He usually helps the master of Anleji take care of some things. It is said that he is very skillful in doing things, but he is not known for his strength. "

"So, there are still... 31 people in the convoy?" Geng Xuan asked.

Luo Qing nodded and said:
“Yes…Oh, when they left, a few people from Baiyuanji were left behind by Wu Yue.

The reason Cao Duo came here is related to them."

Geng Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and had roughly guessed who these people were.

But he still asked, "Among these people who came from Baiyuanji, are there any who have reached the marrow refining realm?"

Luo Qing shook his head and said, "No."

Geng Xuan nodded and casually slapped out five palms. Five palm-shaped energy flew out and hit the hearts of the five captives respectively.

Geng Xuan repeatedly confirmed in his mind the "refining" of the continuously pouring residual energy, feeling the burning sensation of the small flame between his eyebrows, while instructing everyone:
"Deal with their bodies. Oh, take off their coats first. And that Cao Duo... Never mind. Let me do this."

As he said this, Geng Xuan turned back into the tunnel and took out Cao Duo's body. He first took off his clothes and put them on himself.

Then, everyone saw him squatting in front of Cao Duo and observing him carefully for a while, and then he covered his face with his hands, moving his fingers flexibly.

Then he reached into his bosom, took out a small bottle of paste-like substance, spread it evenly on his face, rubbed it vigorously for a while, and then took a lot of paste and applied it to his chin, cheeks, upper lip and other parts.

Then the gang leader pulled out a dagger, carefully shaved off the beard on Cao Duo's face, and applied it to the corresponding position on his own face.

When he shaved the bearded Cao Duo's face until it was smooth, he finally stood up and turned to look at everyone.

Although everyone had anticipated what the gang leader was doing, they still couldn't help but feel shocked when they saw Cao Duo, who had been lying on the ground, stand up again.

However, everyone soon discovered that although the gang leader had disguised himself to look like Cao Duo, not only was he similar in spirit, but even in appearance he looked very far-fetched.

If you don't look closely and there is a distance between them, you can still fool people.

But if you look closely, you can see flaws everywhere.

Geng Xuan asked, "How is it? Are they similar?" Wang Xi said, "At first glance, they are very similar, but I can't bear to look closely."

Geng Xuan smiled and said, "It's good enough to fool them for a while. I don't intend for them to take a closer look."

When Geng Xuan disguised himself as "Cao Duo", the clothes of the other five people had already been stripped off and put on by five people with similar body shapes.

Although Geng Xuan had not yet revealed his plan, everyone had obviously figured out what the gang leader's intention was.

It's not hard to guess.

For a convoy stationed in a wilderness with excellent visibility on all sides, the most difficult thing is to get close to them or even walk into their ranks without arousing their vigilance.

Specifically for this caravan, this could only be achieved if Cao Duo and the other five people returned on the horses they rode when they left.

If a stranger approaches, they will be alert, warn others, and drive them away.

If they cannot be driven away and the approaching strangers show strong strength, they will most likely scatter.

If dozens of people were to scatter in all directions in the wilderness, the situation would be tricky to imagine.

Not to mention the people running away, even if there were pigs running away, it would not be easy to catch them all.

As for their actions against Wuyou Palace and Anleji, of course, they should be as covert as possible, and as confusing as possible.

It would be best to keep all the people in the convoy and not let anyone escape.

The gang leader's current plan is obviously aimed at this goal.

Geng Xuan looked at the five people who had already changed their clothes, including Ding Yong and Wang Lu.

He asked, "You all know how to ride horses, right?"

Five people nodded.

"Can you disguise yourself?"

The four shook their heads, and only one said, "I know a little bit, but I only know the basics. I can't compare to the master's exquisite skills."

"Forget it, just stay away from me and run slower when you get near the convoy.

Let them see your figures but not your faces, and then I can go in alone." Geng Xuan said.

As for the specific battle, in order to gain more good luck, Geng Xuan did not want the Giant Bear Gang to get involved.

In Geng Xuan's opinion, they were able to help him enter the convoy without arousing suspicion, which was already a success.

Geng Xuan then said to Luo Qing and Teng Yu:

"You bring the others with you and we will separate when we reach the wilderness near the convoy.

I don't need you to join the battle. All you need to do is spread out to prevent anyone from escaping.

If anyone escapes from the convoy, you must intercept them."

Luo Qing and Teng Yu nodded solemnly.

Geng Xuan jumped onto the white horse that he had first comforted, which was also the one Cao Duo rode.

Geng Xuan not only rode on it himself, but also carried Dahuang in front of him. Together with the eight children who were huddled together on Dahuang's back, they were really "all on one back".

Geng Xuan lightly squeezed the horse's belly and took the lead in trotting.

The other five horses followed behind.

Luo Qing and Teng Yu led another twenty or so people and hurried behind them.

The group set off in such a grand manner.

At the beginning, Geng Xuan was still a little unfamiliar and unskilled in riding the white horse.

But his progress was very fast. By the time the team left the Chiwu Mountain area and entered the wilderness, he was confident that he was no less capable than those warriors who grew up on horseback.

Geng Xuan also had enough energy to look around and investigate the situation.

What made him feel a little strange was that this place was clearly near Baiyuanji and it was daytime, but he didn't see a single person along the way.

He didn't know yet that this was because the master of Baiyuanji had issued a strict order.

But this is also a situation that Geng Xuan is very happy to see.

Not long after, Geng Xuan led a group of people to the wilderness near the caravan. With his eyesight, he could even see the outline of the caravan's camp quite clearly.

Geng Xuan signaled to Luo Qing and Teng Yu, who immediately understood and dispersed to both sides.

Crouching low and avoiding exposure, they approached the convoy from both sides.

Dahuang, who was carrying Baxiao, also jumped off the horse.

Their job is to prevent horses from getting frightened and losing control, pulling loaded carts away.

Once they encounter such a situation, they will immediately step in to "stop it".

Geng Xuan deliberately slowed down his horse's speed to coordinate with the actions of Luo Qing, Teng Yu, Da Huang and the others.

If he walked too fast now, it was very likely that he would have already started while others were not yet in place.

……

Teng Yu led a dozen people to bypass from the right side.

Luo Qing led Liang Jun, Xu Lin and a dozen others to bypass from the left.

As Luo Qing sent people out one after another, in the end, only Liang Jun and Xu Lin were left by his side.

Liang Jun felt that he was familiar with the two of them, so he couldn't help but say:
"Lao Luo, the gang leader is actually proficient in disguise... It feels like he suddenly knows everything, and he's so powerful at everything. It's incredible to think about it."

Luo Qing turned his head suddenly, gave him a cold look, and asked, "What do you want to say?"

Liang Jun was shocked by his reaction.

Xu Lin couldn't help but pull Liang Jun and whispered:
"Liang Jun, now that we have identified the gang leader, we should follow him seriously.

We and the gang leader have a relationship that no one else has. This is a relationship that others can't even envy, so you must cherish it!

Don’t think too much about other things, and don’t be too smart! ”

Liang Jun glanced at Xu Lin. He was shocked that this guy, who was usually taciturn, could say such words.

Think about Su Ruiliang who has "changed beyond recognition", and then think about Luo Qing and Wang Lu who have also "changed their appearance drastically". Even Xu Lin, who he thought had not changed much, is no longer the same as he thought.

It seems like I'm the only one left standing still.

He shook his head, not daring to think any more, and followed the two people in front closely.

……

On the other side, seeing Luo Qing, Teng Yu and others gradually taking their positions, Geng Xuan sped up his horse and quickly approached the convoy.

The other five also increased their horse speed, but always kept a considerable distance from him.

When everyone in the caravan saw them returning, they all turned their heads to look, and quite a few had already gathered in the direction they were riding from, ready to greet them.

At this moment, two figures appeared in front of everyone.

Geng Xuan was no stranger to one of them.

It was Zang Zigao, the president of Kangleji Pharmacy.

Then, the man with a rather naive face standing side by side with him and slightly closer to the center must be Wu Yue.

Although the two sides were still hundreds of steps apart, Geng Xuan's sharp eyesight was enough to see the subtle changes in Wu Yue's expression.

Geng Xuan didn't care what Wu Yue thought about Cao Duo's return.

He only cared about one thing.

Did he have any doubts about himself as "Cao Duo"?

And the signs he observed suggested no.

The white horse galloped quickly, and the distance between the two sides quickly narrowed.

Almost in an instant, the distance between the two sides was shortened to about fifty steps.

There was still no doubt on Wu Yue's face.

In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was further shortened to less than thirty steps.

The horse's speed did not slow down.

Wu Yue had a puzzled look on his face.

The suspicion on his face had not yet disappeared, and the distance between the two sides had narrowed to within twenty steps.

Not only did the horse's speed not decrease, but as Geng Xuan suddenly exerted force with the inside of his legs, the horse's speed suddenly increased.

The distance between the two sides quickly closed to within ten steps.

The distance between the two sides was so close that it was finally enough for Wu Yue and others to see more details.

Wu Yue finally showed a look of doubt on his face.

But what is more, is panic!
"Cao...you are..."

Faced with the man and horse that were speeding up and rushing towards him like a cannonball, Wu Yue had no intention of resisting at all and wanted to retreat into the crowd behind him.

Use other people's bodies to slow down the horse's momentum and buy yourself time to buffer and respond.

But "Cao Duo" on the horse had already rushed over from the horse's back. The distance between the two was only a few steps, and they reached each other in an instant.

Wu Yue also saw that when he pounced towards her, a huge wave of pine waves seemed to be released from his waist.

"boom--"

He only had time to reach out to protect his head and face before the huge wave of pine waves hit him head-on.

"what!!!"

A series of shrill screams rang out among the crowd.

Among them, the ones who screamed the loudest and were the most miserable were Wu Yue and Zang Zigao, who were at the front.

Yes, it was not only Wu Yue but also Zang Zigao who suffered from the "Song Tao Impact" and stood on the front line to face the strongest impact.

Because Zang Zigao knew nothing about "Cao Duo", he was in an unprepared and relaxed state until the last moment.

The damage he suffered in the end was only higher than Wu Yue's.

Wu Yue's body was covered with sword marks so deep that the bones could be seen, and his flesh was torn apart by blood.

At the same time, his chest, arms, etc. were full of broken sword fragments, many of which had been completely embedded in his body.

It looked horrible.

But Zang Zigao's situation was even worse. He failed to protect his head and face, and not only did his body suffer a blow no less severe than Wu Yue's, his head and face were also covered in blood and flesh, and was eroded.

His face was pierced by many broken blades of swords.

Among them, one piece was deeply embedded in Zang Zigao's right eye.

Just as he was covering his bleeding right eye and screaming while retreating wildly, Geng Xuan, who had already approached him, slapped him hard on the palm that was covering his right eye.

The palm felt like it was hit hard by a huge hammer.

Then, the second burst of force, the sword fragments that had not yet been pulled out seemed to be hit hard, sinking deeply into the eye sockets and straight into the brain.

It is also accompanied by raging force.

Zang Zigao, who was originally screaming miserably, suddenly fell silent.
