Too Reckless

Vol 6 Chapter 42: life is short

The sunset fell into the mountains, and the starry sky appeared on the sky again.

Shangguan Lingye was wearing a farm girl's clothes, standing under the eaves, holding dumplings and feeding rice grains, looking up at the sky, stunned.

Ordinary people often say that life is short, and they fantasize about longevity.

Shangguan Lingye once thought that ordinary people were dissatisfied with the short life span, so he sighed so.

But after spending a few days in the secular world, I realized that it is not the lifespan that ordinary people are reluctant to give up, but the people and things they have experienced - fear of losing their youthful physique, fear of old beauty, fear of separation from relatives, fear that the present comfortable time will never return.

If a mortal holds an old body, his close relatives are separated by life and death, and only loneliness is left for the rest of his life, then it would be too tiring to live another day, how can anyone expect immortality and age.

Shangguan Lingye stayed in this unknown place, and was forced to let go of everything he once had, no spiritual cultivation, no arduous affairs of the Monster Hunting Division, no halo of a noble girl from the fairy family, and only loneliness. , and a close companion.

Eighty years ago, Shangguan Lingye didn't dare to imagine such a thing. When encountering a similar situation, the only thought must be to "get out of the sea of ​​misery".

But now I don't know why, Shangguan Lingye doesn't even dislike such a day.

Cooking during the day and yo-yo, taking shifts at night to watch the night, and chatting a few words with men, the day is over, and you don't have to think about anything.

After going out from here, I have to return to my old days. Countless trivial things are pressing on my body. I have to take care of my cultivation, find opportunities to find my destiny, protect ordinary people and mortals, and resist the invasion of evil demons. As long as I live, I will not stop. One day, just thinking about it makes one feel breathless.

In contrast, Shangguan Lingye naturally felt more comfortable in such a simple life.

But unfortunately, the fairies who fell into the mortal world are also fairies, and they do not belong to this world, so there will always be a day to return.

While Shangguan Lingye was staring at the starry sky in a daze, there was a sudden commotion on the city wall in the distance, and several shouts came:

"Look over there..."

"It's the Qingjia Army, hurry up and inform the boss..."

dang dang-

The gong rang, and all of a sudden there was noise outside.

On the side of the courtyard, Zuo Lingquan, who was chopping firewood, took his saber and glanced at the city wall: "It seems that something has happened... I'll go take a look." Then he jumped out of the courtyard wall.

Shangguan Lingye and Zuo Lingquan had only been here for two days, and they had never found the whereabouts of Nether Ancestor, but the Qingjia Army, a hundred miles away, suddenly came over and knew that there was a problem. After thinking for a while, she went back to the house to get her belongings, and followed her out...

-----

Tapping the tower-

The footsteps in the dilapidated county town were dense, and the surviving people had already seen the notoriety of the Qingjia Army. When they heard the sound of the gong, they fled in all directions and hid in the secluded part of the city.

There are only three hundred rebels in the city, and their quality is uneven. Not to mention strong bodies, there are only two hundred people with healthy limbs. Except for a dozen or so leading the way, the others are all peasants, and their weapons are only kitchen knives and hoes. .

The city wall of Macheng County is only a two-person earth wall. The defenders are insufficient, and there are no bows and crossbows. Come up, there is no need to guard at all.

Jiang Heng had an inspiring hand, and the rebels had not yet fled, but the situation was not far behind. Cao Xin looked at the densely packed torches outside the county town, his face ashen, patted his thigh and said:

"Let me tell you, it would be great to have defected earlier, and now people are calling. There are no less than 2,000 people at a glance. It is estimated that they are coming for Tucheng Liwei..."

Zhu Ba is the most mature, but at this time he is also panicked:

"Would you like to break through? Run into the mountains from the south to hide for a few days..."

"There are also people in the south, and the escape route is blocked!"

Jiang Heng turned to look at the mountains south of the county seat, and as expected, there were torches shaking there. The east side of the county seat was the sea, and there were no boats to escape, and dumplings had already been made.

"Boss, hurry up and open the city gate and go out to ask for peace. It will be too late when people start attacking the city and then go out..."

Jiang Heng shook his head and said, "Zhu Wu is ruthless and ruthless, and he worked so hard to make dumplings. It is definitely not our manpower. It is estimated that he came to 'train troops', and there is no way to survive by surrendering."

The way the Qingjia Army trains is to kill the new recruits to train their courage. Its notoriety is well known in the surrounding area.

Jiang Heng knew that there was no difference between defending and giving away. He wanted to order his subordinates to break up and make a living. Seeing Zuo Lingquan running up with his sword, he said:

"Why don't you all go away? Find a way to break through the siege, the old man will leave, and we will take some young people out; Zuo Jianxia, ​​you are very skilled in martial arts, please help and take some dolls out, if the children are all dead , Macheng County is extinct."

Zuo Lingquan walked quickly to the top of the city, and glanced at the number of enemy troops. There were about 3,000 people. The main force of the Qingjia Army, except for the thousand people left to defend the city, came.

However, Zuo Lingquan could not be frightened by this battle. He raised his hand to signal everyone not to panic, and asked:

"There are not many people. As long as they are scattered, there is no more resistance. Don't panic, let's see what they are here for."

Jiang Heng and others are just ordinary people, waiting here is waiting to die, how can they listen to this, and now they no longer pay attention to Zuo Lingquan, and start ordering his subordinates to find opportunities to break through.

The county was a mess, but it was orderly outside the city.

The 2,000 bandit army came from the south. The 500-odd people at the head were all dressed in armor and armed with standard knives and guns. There were also bowmen behind them, holding a banner with the character 'Zhu', which looked quite murderous.

In the middle of the bandit army was a large chair carried by eight people, on which sat a bearded man in a python robe, with two tiger-headed swords on his back, facing the fierce as Yama, it was Zhu Wu, the leader of the Qingjia Army.

The bandit army stopped at a distance of a arrow, and Zhu Wu Yaoyao shouted:

"Jiang Heng, you are also a good player in Ninghe. I will give you a chance to bring out a few brothers around you, and later join the Qingjia Army to be a junior general; other people will be of great use to me, so don't talk to me."

On the top of the city, Jiang Heng and several people had different expressions when they heard this.

Cao Xin wanted to agree a little bit, but he also knew that he had agreed. What would happen to the rest of the brothers? Jianghu people had no choice but to speak.

Jiang Heng originally looked down on Zhu Wu, and asked him to send nearly a thousand brothers who depended on him into the tiger's mouth to find a career for himself. It was even more impossible, and he immediately responded:

"King Zhu, I didn't mean to go against you. I was thinking of going over to seek refuge in the past few days. Everyone gathered, and before I had time to leave, you came here first. Hundreds of my brothers can also fight well. If we don't call you King Sheng in the future, we'll join your gang today?"

Zhu Wu leaned on the big chair carried by the eight people, and raised his hand very simply:

"Okay, I'll give you a face, let your subordinates drop all the weapons and bring them out."

You don't need to think about it to know it's fake. If you really lost your weapon and left the city, the next moment to greet them is the butcher's knife.

Jiang Heng knew that Zhu Wu's killing intent was decided, his face darkened, and he tilted his head and said:

"Let's drag it for a while and let others run from the sea with the people. How many can swim out?"

Su Ziyu, a scholar, had no fighting power at all, so he hurriedly ran down and led people to escape secretly.

Jiang Heng wanted to continue talking nonsense and delay the siege time, but when he saw Shangguan Lingye came up with a bucket hat, he ignored them at all. After glancing under the city wall, he said:

"Capturing the thief first, the king, go and kill that fellow. The method is more cruel, and you will be skinned and cramped in front of them. Don't kill too many others, you can take it for your own use."

? ?

Jiang Heng and a few brothers were inexplicable, wondering if the woman was frightened, when they saw Zuo Lingquan nodded lightly, then turned over and jumped off the city wall.

"Eh?! Master Zuo, you..."

"Rope, quickly pull the person up..."

Jiang Heng and others have seen Zuo Lingquan's high martial arts skills, but there are more than 2,000 people outside, both bows and crossbows and iron armor, and even higher martial arts skills will kill them. They all thought that Zuo Lingquan was crazy, and quickly wanted to bring people back. .

But Zuo Lingquan landed firmly on the yellow earth and did not look back.

The night wind is bleak, and the cold moon is like a blade, carving out the light of the sword and the shadow of the sword on the ruined earth.

The firelight reflected from the arrowheads, like fangs, pointed to the old city wall in the distance in the darkness.

Under the city wall, a swordsman in a black robe, with his hair tied with a headband, strode under the moonlight and the night wind, and the only thing he could hear was the screeching of his robe.

In front of them is a thousand armored troops, and behind them is a ruined and dangerous city.

The scene looks like death, and it seems to be hitting a stone with an egg. There is no chance of winning, and it even provokes a joke from the opponent:

"Look, someone jumped down..."

"I'm here to surrender..."

But the Qingjia Army, whose torches were like clouds, soon stopped laughing.

Zhu Wu, who was sitting on the large chair, frowned and winked at the people below.

A sharp archer standing at the rear of the elite army opened his bow and arrows until the figure in black strode forward.

call out-

Arrows are like cold stars, pulling out a line of buzzing in the air.

Jiang Heng and the others shouted "Be careful!", but seeing that Zuo Lingquan was unavoidable, he just lifted his left hand lightly, and used the scabbard to open the Feather Arrow.

clatter.

The feather arrow fell diagonally to the ground, failing to hinder the progress.

"Good work!"

Zhu Wu, who is also a trainee, saw this scene and sat up a little, with his elbows on his knees, and his chin raised:

"Fire arrows!"

shhhhh—

More than a hundred archers were ordered, and the sound of bows and crossbows exploded in an instant, and hundreds of cold lights broke through the air, until the black-clothed swordsman was halfway through.

Jiang Heng and others' faces were ashen, they felt that Zuo Lingquan would soon become a hedgehog, but the next moment, their jaw dropped.

I saw that Zuo Lingquan, who was walking faster and faster in the night wind, didn't even bother to hide this time, and went straight through the arrow rain, letting the powerful feather arrow fall on his body.

ka ka ka-

The cold iron arrow pierced the robe, but it stopped abruptly when it touched the flesh. Some were broken, and some bounced aside.

At the fourth level of Linggu, the golden body is flawless, and ordinary swords are hard to hurt; Zuo Lingquan is half-stepped, if he can be shot into a hedgehog by the world's feather arrows, this immortal will be considered a white cultivator.

Seeing such miracles, the Rebels in the county town were so shocked that they even forgot to escape. They stared blankly at the bounced arrows, unable to understand what they were seeing.

"This…"

"Master Zuo seems invulnerable..."

The same is true of the Qingjia Army outside the city. After letting go of a few arrows, they were stunned on the spot. Some people looked at the crossbow and quiver in their hands, wondering if they had taken the wrong weapon.

Of all the people, Zhu Wu, the leader, was the most sober.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Wu was surprised at first, then turned his eyes to the left and right, as if he was looking for someone.

Zuo Lingquan guessed that the ancestor of the ghost might be hiding in the dark, and wanted to provoke the massacre of the two armies to obtain the soul, but did not give Zhu Wu a chance to ask. Get up.

bang—

Under the attention of thousands of people, Zuo Lingquan jumped more than 30 feet high and rushed over the heads of hundreds of soldiers, like a divine soldier descending from the sky, and slapped Zhu Wu's head with his palm.

Zhu Wu met the Nether ancestor the day before yesterday, and he had already seen the power of 'invulnerability to swords and spears, breaking gold and iron'. The big knife shot, and at the same time roared:

"Master save me!"

Zuo Lingquan was also cautiously guarding the left and right, but no one came to help.

Behind the Qingjia Army, Nether Ancestor dressed in normal attire and had already turned around and walked towards Ninghe City.

Old Ancestor Nether intended to let the Qingjia Army come to slaughter the city, but he didn't expect Zuo Lingquan to stay in the county town and didn't find a place to restore his strength.

Old Ancestor Nether couldn’t kill two people with his flesh alone, and three thousand ordinary people couldn’t pile up the practitioners. With two people here, the plan to slaughter the city would definitely fail. The same is true for the more than 10,000 civilians left by the army.

bang—

But in the blink of an eye, Zuo Lingquan's body was like a black eagle, and he slapped the blade on the cross raised.

Zhu Wu is already considered a top warrior among mortals, but facing Zuo Lingquan's palm is no different from that of a three-year-old boy raising his hand to block. pressed to the chest and abdomen.

Hearing the muffled sound of 'bang—', the back of the knife was directly smashed into the thick chest, the blood burst into flames, and there was a muffled sound of bone cracks.

There are many pro-militaries around, but no one can react to the sparks of calcium carbide.

Zuo Lingquan grabbed Zhu Wu's neck with his backhand, and before he could open his mouth to beg for mercy, the five fingers of his right hand turned into claws like hooks, pierced directly into the chest of the bearded man, and then yanked it out.

puff-

Under the watchful eyes of Zhu Wu, a curtain of blood erupted from Zhu Wu's chest, and the pieces of meat were flying.

"what-"

Zhu Wu's eyes were terrified, he looked down at the empty chest, and after screaming, his limbs twitched and he was unwilling to die.

Seeing this scene, the surrounding Qingjia troops were so frightened that they forgot to draw their knives; Jiang Heng and others on the city wall were full of shock, and even Shangguan Lingye frowned unexpectedly.

Zuo Lingquan wanted to capture the king to quell the bandit army, so as not to cause a large number of casualties and benefit the ancient fisherman of the ghost, so naturally he had to be ruthless to the end; road:

"All kneel down to Lao Tzu!"

The sound was like thunder, spreading far and wide at night.

The surrounding dozens of pro-militaries were so shocked that they sat on the ground, and the rest all stepped back, looking at the man in black who was standing on the large chair with the corpse, as if looking at a demon **** who had descended into the world inexplicably.

Zuo Lingquan held the heart in his hand and looked fiercely at the group of ants under his feet, showing the momentum of the 'human butcher' to the fullest.

This feels very domineering and invincible, but after seeing the horror and fear in everyone's eyes, Zuo Lingquan's heart moved, and suddenly he wanted to understand one thing:

In the absence of any restrictions, the immortals are so crushed and invincible in the face of mortals; they do not give any opportunities, do not speak any reason, good and evil are all up to themselves, and mortals have no right to resist or choose.

Zuo Lingquan came from the mountain, and to the people of this world, he was a true immortal; even if he didn't think so, mortals were like ants in front of him, and he could do whatever he wanted.

The same is true of the Nether Ancestor. As long as the Nether Ancestor is willing, it will be easy to kill all the people in the world. The people of this world have no right to resist.

If there is a bigger world above Jiuzhou, and the 'true immortals' above treat ordinary people like Zuo Lingquan, it is probably the same.

Whether those 'immortals' are good or evil has no meaning to Zuo Lingquan, because good and evil are determined by immortals and have nothing to do with him.

Zuo Lingquan was a little puzzled at first when he heard the Four Signs God Hou that the ancestors cut off everyone's path to immortality, but now he suddenly understands what those ancestors did.

If you can go up, you can come down. If it is Shangguan Lingye who comes down, it is naturally a saint descending from heaven to Jiuzhou; but if it is the ancestor of the ghost, it is the catastrophe of the world.

The reason why the ancestors in the ancient times cut off the road may be because they have experienced too much, and they would rather hold their lives in their own hands to fend for themselves than dare to gamble.

boom—

Zuo Lingquan stunned the bandit army with anger, and just as he was secretly realizing the truth, a thunderbolt passed through the far south.

Zuo Lingquan instantly returned to his senses, and when he looked out of the corner of the eye, the thunder was purple, and it seemed that the sky was torn apart by a crack, a scene that could not appear in the extraordinary world.

The Nether Ancestor, who had already walked out for half a mile, saw this scene change his face suddenly, and then he was overjoyed, striding towards the southeast direction, looking like a black sword under the moonlight, very eye-catching.

Shangguan Lingye also instantly recovered, knowing that there was an opportunity to escape in the south, but he did not leave, and turned back and said urgently:

"You waited out of the city quickly, in the name of 'God and Human Help', gather the bandit army outside, then find someone to pretend to be a ghost and pretend to be him, and immediately go to occupy Ninghe City; what you teach you must be remembered in your heart, and it will come true. Afterwards, don’t commit murder, treat the people kindly, and bring peace to the people here.”

After speaking, Shangguan Lingye snatched an iron rod from the rebel army, leaped to the city wall, and chased after the ghostly ancestor.

Jiang Heng was stunned by the scene of heaven and man coming into the world, but his mind was not slow. Knowing that this was the biggest opportunity in his life, when he came back to his senses, he jumped off the city wall and took a few brothers with him. Running behind Shangguan Lingye, Lang said:

"I, Jiang Heng, have the help of gods and people. I can't penetrate ten thousand arrows. You can quickly disarm and surrender. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com can save you from death."

The Qingjia Army outside the city saw with his own eyes that Zuo Lingquan was invulnerable, and Zhu Wu's body was still in his hands, and he was already frightened; Start throwing weapons and retreating.

Zuo Lingquan discovered the whereabouts of the Nether Ancestor. Knowing that he could not delay, he threw Zhu Wu's body directly in front of the chaotic army, drew his sword and cut down two bandit troops who wanted to flee, shouting angrily:

"All kneel down to Lao Tzu!"

This time, most of the people came back to their senses, and the effect was outstanding. Hundreds of people knelt on the ground on the spot, grabbing the ground with their heads, trembling, and the others no longer had the courage to use their arms as a chariot.

Shangguan Lingye, who was like a flying swallow, passed through the bandit army. After killing the few remaining leaders who wanted to escape with an iron rod, he joined Zuo Lingquan and chased south together.

Jiang Heng and the others ran behind them, probably guessing that the two gods would never return. They wanted to say goodbye, but the situation was imminent, and they couldn't tolerate their politeness. Jiang Heng could only stop and give a salute, and then turned around to frighten the victim. The terrified Blue Armor...
