His name is Li Banfeng—”Feng” as in “mountain peak,” not “madness.” The doctor confirmed he is not insane.
To save a friend’s life, he stepped onto Platform 96, boarded the 11...
At nightfall, the peddler brought Lu Qianjiao, and the driver brought Hai Chi's old car, and they waited together at the border. Lu Qianjiao was a little impatient: "Is Li Qi a reliable person? Did he run away because he couldn't get the job done?"
The peddler tidied up the truck and said, "It's not like he'll run away, but it's possible that he won't be able to do it. The boundary of Santoucha is too special." Lu Qianjiao said, "If he can't do it this time, can you trust him in the future?"
"Why can't I trust him? Everyone makes mistakes sometimes." The peddler leaned against the truck and lit a cigarette. "It wasn't him originally, but he became him by mistake. Life and death depend on fate. He is still the one who completed the Nine Transformations. He is such a reliable brother, why shouldn't I trust him?"
"What do you mean it's not him, it's him?" Lu Qianjiao didn't quite understand, "Haven't you already had your eyes on this guy..." As she spoke, two figures walked out of the night.
Li Qi was dragging a hidden bridge gun. Everyone knew his figure. Who was the person behind him? What a beautiful figure.
What a handsome face.
"Zhao Xiaowan!" Lu Qianjiao shouted angrily, pulling out a feather arrow from behind and throwing it at Li Banfeng and Zhao Xiaowan. The arrow split into two, two into four, and by the time it was halfway through, there were already more than a hundred arrows.
Li Banfeng put the dark bridge cannon aside, picked up his wife and was about to dodge, when a figure blocked in front of him, grabbed a handful of arrows, broke them with one hand and threw them on the ground. Lu Qianjiao laughed secretly.
The most unwise way to resolve arrow cultivation techniques is to deal with the arrows directly, because there are a lot of arrows, they are very fast, and they increase exponentially. How long will it take you to fight against the arrows?
The remaining arrows were still replicating. Lu Qianjiao was confident of victory, but she didn't expect that the man was quick and broke the arrows faster than they could be replicated. In the blink of an eye, only a piece of broken arrowheads was left on the ground. The arrow cultivation skill was dissolved, and the man was unharmed and stood in front of Lu Qianjiao.
Who is this person?
Not only did Lu Qianjiao fail to recognize him, even Li Banfeng took a long time to recognize him.
The person was a woman, with her hair tied up and wearing armor. She held a spear in her right hand and played with a few arrowheads in her left hand. When Lu Qianjiao stretched out her hand, another feather arrow appeared in her palm. Before she could throw it out, the woman opposite suddenly disappeared. When she reappeared, a spear was pointed in front of Lu Qianjiao.
Lu Qianjiao looked at the woman's face, but she still couldn't recognize her. Her face was too unusual. But looking at her footsteps and gun skills, Lu Qianjiao recognized her: "Hong Ying, you bitch!"
Seeing Hong Ying's appearance, Lu Qianjiao didn't say anything. After all, it was a matter of life and death. The peddler kept pursing his lips, pursing them very hard, and his chin trembled from time to time.
The driver didn't pay much attention to the two men. He kept touching the shaft and the carriage, as if he was whispering to the old coachman.
Hong Ying looked at the feather arrow in Lu Qianjiao's hand, gently moved the spear in her hand, and asked, "Do you want to throw that arrow out?" The arrow shaft moved between her fingertips, and Lu Qianjiao did have this plan.
Hong Ying nodded slightly: "Throw it out, don't hesitate, I remember you were pretty quick."
Lu Qianjiao moved her fingertips. Hong Ying was very calm. She kept the spear in her hand pointed at Lu Qianjiao's face: "Throw it. I haven't seen you play with arrows for a long time." The peddler shouted, "Qianjiao, put the arrow down."
After saying that, the peddler looked at Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng shouted, "Yingying, come back." Hong Ying returned to Li Banfeng.
Both sides were silent for a long time, and the driver spoke first: "I say, you went through so much trouble to get together just to fight this one battle? If you really want to fight, I won't get involved, I'm leaving now!"
Hong Ying glanced at the driver and suddenly shouted, "Who did I think it was? Isn't the driver safe? How could you still be alive?" The lady laughed and said, "Of course he is alive. There are so many people on the battlefield. Who can live longer than him?"
Hong Ying nodded and said, "That's right. At the beginning, the mad craftsman was blind, so I made him the vanguard. He fought with me three times and retreated more than 300 miles. Even the mad craftsman himself couldn't catch up with him."
Everyone was silent for a while. Lu Qianjiao couldn't help but laughed out loud. "At that time, I thought he was luring the enemy deep into our territory and was rushing over to outflank them. But I led the cavalry and couldn't outrun his infantry. I had no idea where to find him."
Hong Ying laughed and said, "I sent cavalry to chase him, but they couldn't catch up with him. People say that an incompetent general can tire out the entire army. His three armies really followed the right person, and each one is faster than the other." There was constant laughter in Qingshuigou.
Li Banfeng didn't laugh because he had never experienced a war before.
The driver didn't laugh either: "Are you here to do business or to catch up? If you keep talking about these old things, I won't keep you company. I'd rather go back to Yaowanggou to work!"
The atmosphere was relaxed a lot after this smile. The peddler said to Zhao Xiaowan and Hong Ying, "We are doing business together today, so let's not talk about the old grudges. I was planning to let Qianjiao guard the entrance here, but since you two are here, I'll leave this matter to you.
Qianjiao, you follow Li Qi and escort Che Wushang up the Elbow Mountain!"
Li Banfeng looked at his wife, who opened the hidden bridge cannon, selected the appropriate direction, and fired the first shot.
The cannon was successful, and a huge shadow covered the entire boundary, but there was a problem with the subsequent control. The dark bridge was not completely stable and disappeared in less than ten seconds. Lu Qianjiao snorted and said, "General Zhao, you are not trying to use this mechanism to harm us, are you?"
Zhao Xiaowan sneered: "It's my duty to cheat you, but I can't bear to cheat my husband."
Lu Qianjiao looked at Li Banfeng and said, "Brother, you are so lucky that the most beautiful woman in the world is with you." Zhao Xiaowan was a little surprised, "General Lu, you are flattering me, you actually said that I am the most beautiful woman in the world?"
Lu Qianjiao sighed, "I don't want to say this, but who can blame so many men for thinking that you are pretty?" Hong Ying turned the spear and looked at Lu Qianjiao and said, "Bitch, do you still want to fight?"
Lu Qianjiao glared: "Why should I be afraid of you?"
Li Banfeng walked to his wife and tried to give her the key: "If I can't come back, remember to go home by yourself." His wife shook her head: "Husband, take the key. I feel more at ease with the old man following you."
Li Banfeng touched his wife's hand and prepared to lead everyone to the bridge.
The peddler took a pair of shoes and gave them to Lu Qianjiao: "They both walk fast, you must keep up with them." Lu Qianjiao put on the shoes and touched the peddler's face.
The peddler took two bottles and gave them to Li Banfeng: "After crossing the line, apply the cream in the blue bottle on your face. This cream can block the sunlight, but it is poisonous. Wash it off immediately after crossing the line.
When you get to the Elbow Hill, look for the right time and apply the cream in the white bottle on your face. This cream is more toxic, but it can make you temporarily invisible. Remember to give more to the driver, as he still has to take care of Haichi's old car.
Don't be in a hurry when you go up the mountain. Wait for me to make some noise and lure everyone away, then you can go up. Don't fight if you can. It's best to lead these 10,000 people out without making any noise."
Zhao Xiaowan fired another shot, and this time the secret bridge was stabilized.
Li Banfeng was about to lead the people to the bridge. The peddler pushed the cart and walked out of the valley. "Aren't you going to the bridge?"
The peddler shook his head and said, "I have another way, you must be careful!"
After entering the dark bridge, Lu Qianjiao felt fresh and looked around all the way. The driver only looked at the road and drove the cart, not caring about anything else.
Li Banfeng always felt that there was someone outside the dark bridge, but he could not see any figure. Because he was worried that the dark bridge was unstable, Li Banfeng did not dare to delay. While running all the way, the three of them quickly left the wormhole.
Lu Qianjiao looked back and saw that the boundary line, which was more than 100 meters wide, was behind her. She exclaimed in admiration: "This Zhao Xiaowan is really capable. But then again, I heard that she died at the hands of Hong Ying. How did these two get back together?
Brother, I see they are all standing next to you, you didn't marry them both, did you? It's your blessing to marry Zhao Xiaowan, but Hong Ying has become such a ghost, why did you marry her?
In the military camp, I heard that she read Tianxiang Cihua and Xiushuang Ji every day. I guess she used her words to deceive you. Although she said a lot of tricks, she has no real skills at all.
"Sister-in-law, let's do the real work first, okay?" Li Banfeng applied the vanishing cream in the blue bottle, applied some more on the driver, and handed the bottle to Lu Qianjiao. Lu Qianjiao looked at the bottle and said, "This thing is too toxic. Don't use it if you can avoid it."
A strong light fell on the field, about three or five miles away from the three people.
"Santoucha is too crowded." Lu Qianjiao had no choice but to apply the vanishing cream.
Following the map, we walked to the foot of Elbow Mountain. The mountain was shaped as its name suggests, like a fat pig elbow. The mountain road was not steep and the terrain was relatively smooth. There was a lot of noise on the mountain. Li Banfeng activated his skill of perceiving spiritual sounds and vaguely heard the sound of rattles through the silk earrings.
"Stop him at the intersection!"
"This guy is not very good at fighting, he is not a real peddler!" "Capture him alive and hand him over to the customs officer for disposal!"
The peddler had already arrived, and was not fighting with all his strength. He was trying to lead the three men away. Lu Qianjiao was a little worried, and said to Li Banfeng, "Let's go up the mountain and take a look!"
"No hurry." Li Banfeng took the two of them to hide in the woods at the foot of the mountain. Not long after, a dozen three-headed men entered the woods. "Check the woods carefully, don't miss anything!"
"I saw wheel tracks over here."
The driver grabbed the shaft of the cart and prepared to pull the cart away. No matter what the enemy was like, even if it was just a group of miscellaneous soldiers, the driver would never fight with them. There were many heroes who capsized in the gutter. He was here to pull the cart, and he was very clear about this.
The three-headed men kept approaching, and Li Banfeng was wondering whether he should apply the cold cream in the white bottle.
The peddler had told her not to attack when she went up the mountain, and Lu Qianjiao also looked at the bottle of vanishing cream. It seemed that applying vanishing cream was the best option now. But if she thought about it calmly, the situation was not that simple.
If they were to apply vanishing cream now, Li Banfeng and Lu Qianjiao would be able to turn invisible successfully, and the driver could also turn invisible with the old Haichi car, but the mark of the old car could not be hidden. There was no way around it, the old Haichi car was different from other cars, and the wheels could not leave the ground for a long time.
The wheel marks were left behind, and the three-headed men would definitely see them. In other words, being invisible or not was meaningless in this forest. There was another issue that could not be ignored: would the more than 10,000 people on Elbow Mountain be willing to get on the bus?
They fought desperately on this hilltop, and now everyone was an enemy. It was not easy to gain their trust. In the forest, the three men kept approaching, and Lu Qianjiao looked at Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng stretched out his right hand, palm facing up, and waved it horizontally.
Lu Qianjiao had been in battle for a long time, so she naturally understood what this meant. None of these dozen or so three-headed men could be left alive.
According to the peddler, these three-headed men are all dark power users. Now we have to see what kind of people they are.
Li Banfeng first used the skill of "Changxing Wujiu" to cross the forest edge to cut off the enemy's retreat. If you choose to fight, you can't leave any survivors, and you must not let these people go out alive to report the news. The two of them took their positions, and Li Banfeng took the lead.
There is no need to rush through the tour or to travel far and wide, and don't use any techniques that are too noisy.
Li Banfeng was suspended in the air, holding his Tang sword horizontally, and cut three necks with one blow. A three-headed man fell to the ground immediately.
Hearing some noises, Lu Qianjiao knew that Li Banfeng was in position. She threw out three feather arrows, which flew in three different directions. More and more feather arrows flew in the air, and the three three-headed men were shot into sieves one after another.
The other three men in the forest noticed that something was wrong. One of them took off the gong from his waist and wanted to report something. Li Banfeng came behind him and used the boundary line for closing doors and windows to pierce the body of the three men.
The seriously injured three-headed man had no time to resist and was thrown into the residence by Li Banfeng.
Five three-headed men were killed one after another. It seemed that the fight was going smoothly, but the remaining eight three-headed men were well prepared, and the advantage of the sneak attack ended here. A three-headed man rushed towards Lu Qianjiao. He was very fast, and he should be a walker.
Lu Qianjiao threw out a feather arrow, one split into two, two split into four, and the four feather arrows locked onto the three-headed man. This feather arrow could not be dodged, because the feather arrow was under Lu Qianjiao's control, and it would chase people even if dodged. But unexpectedly, the three-headed man did not dodge, and rushed up to meet the feather arrow.
The four arrows were about to hit the three men, and logically, they should have been killed. However, the arrows suddenly deviated in direction, and two of them were nailed to the tree, and one arrow almost hit the driver.
There was still one feather arrow that hit the three-headed man in the chest, but the arrow had no force and only injured the skin and flesh.
Lu Qianjiao's strength was comparable to that of a master of arrow cultivation. This time her mistake was outrageous because she did not understand the other party's cultivation level.
The head in the middle of the three heads is indeed a walker, and his speed is close to that of a travel cultivator, but the head on his right is a disruptor, and his ability is similar to that of a mind cultivator. When Lu Qianjiao was controlling the feather arrow, her thoughts suddenly became confused, causing the feather arrow to split only twice, and its direction was seriously out of control.
In this fight, Lu Qianjiao learned how powerful the three-headed man was. She jumped out from behind the tree and pierced her palm with the arrowhead of the feather arrow. This was her experience in dealing with mind cultivators, using pain to concentrate her mind.
The three heads quickly approached Lu Qianjiao, and Lu Qianjiao turned around and shot another arrow. The head on the left shouted, "Missed!"
There were dozens of arrows, but none of them hit the three-headed man.
The head on the left is a polymath, close to literary cultivation, and he used his technique to make his words come true.
Lu Qianjiao was a little surprised. What level was this three-headed man? Could his words come true work on Lu Qianjiao? Could it be that his cultivation had reached the cloud? This three-headed man's cultivation had not reached the cloud. He was a dark energy user, not a cultivator. The cultivation of a dark energy user was capped at the seventh floor of the earth.
The reason why the word comes true is effective is entirely because the technique used by this head is very focused. He does not control the body, and does not consider the positioning, body movements, footwork, distance, etc.
He didn't even think about the offense or defense. He only focused on one thing, which was to prepare his techniques and release them at the right time.
After being hit twice in a row, Lu Qianjiao became cautious. She changed her position three times and fired three arrows in succession. She calculated that the three-headed man could not interfere with the three arrows at the same time. "Missed!"
"No difference!" "Powerless!"
The two arrows did not split and missed the target.
One arrow successfully split into eight, but all of them fell limply to the ground.
Lu Qianjiao made a wrong calculation, because there was more than one three-headed man here.
These three heads are warriors trained intensively from other states. When facing powerful enemies, once they find an effective tactic, everyone will apply it and execute it with astonishingly high consistency and coordination.
Lu Qianjiao, a veteran of many battles, was really stunned by this. She was surrounded by eight three-headed men, each of whom had only one head responsible for controlling the body. This person was a fighter or a walker and was not at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength.
The remaining two heads had different professions, and the three heads cooperated seamlessly. The eight three-headed people acted in perfect harmony, and after fighting for a few rounds, Lu Qianjiao couldn't find any flaws for a while.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the driver turned the cart around and prepared to retreat back to the border.
A famous general of a generation, after all, is not just a show. Lu Qianjiao couldn't find a reasonable tactic, so she just used brute force. She flicked her sleeves, and thousands of arrows flew out of her body. This move has only one feature, no matter the aim, just shoot. Soon, the six three-headed men were beaten into hedgehogs and fell to the ground one after another.
The remaining two three-headed men wanted to escape, but were blocked by Li Banfeng and both entered Suishenju.
This group of three-headed men was dealt with, but Lu Qianjiao suffered a lot of damage. She really didn't expect that eight three-headed men could force her to use this trick.
Fortunately, the number of the three-headed men was not too large. If there were only one or two hundred of them, the previous trick might not have worked. If hundreds of Wen Xiu concentrated their forces to use the "One Word Comes True" skill together, these thousands of arrows might not be able to fly.
If Lu Qianjiao couldn't even deal with one or two hundred enemy soldiers, she would be unworthy of her reputation on the battlefield.
Retracting the arrow, Lu Qianjiao sighed, "The fighting style of the outside states is indeed different. I have been slack in recent years. I need to put more effort into training soldiers in the future." "Sister-in-law, take the driver to the outside of the forest to check the situation. Don't let him run away. I'll deal with the body here."
"Don't let him run away?" Lu Qianjiao looked at the driver and smiled bitterly, "This is really not easy."
The two of them left the forest, and Li Banfeng alone collected the bodies of the three men into his own residence, and used gloves and a wine gourd to clean the blood on the snow. When they reached the foot of the mountain, the noise was much smaller than before. Many innocent soldiers were led to the east slope by the peddler, and there were few enemies left on the south slope.
Li Banfeng handed the bottle of vanishing cream to Lu Qianjiao: "Sister-in-law, you can use it at any time. I will lead the way in front and you follow closely behind." The driver pulled the carriage to the front: "Don't lead the way, just leave it to me, I will take you."
Lu Qianjiao was startled: "Where do you get such courage?"
"This is not a matter of courage. We are going up the mountain anyway, and you don't know what the situation is like there. Just let me go in front." The driver walked in front, and it was actually the right thing to do. His thinking was completely different from Li Banfeng's.
Li Banfeng thought that he could use his talent of not being noticed by others to explore the way ahead. Even if he encountered three-headed men, he would not be discovered. But the driver relied on seeking good fortune and avoiding danger, which was second to none in the whole Pro Province.
Li Banfeng's idea is to meet people without being discovered, while the driver's idea is to try not to meet people.
He walked ahead, going uphill all the way, from the bottom of the mountain to the mountainside, and wandering around in the forest, but he didn't encounter a single three-headed man! After walking up the mountain for a while, the driver stopped the car and said, "We can't hide ahead. There are so many people, and they all have bad intentions."
Are these people still innocent soldiers?
Judging from their position, they are not the innocent army, they should be the three people trapped on the top of the mountain, that is, the people who are to be rescued this time. They are fighting desperately, and they are now hostile to anyone who goes up the mountain.
Li Banfeng warned the driver and Lu Qianjiao: "Don't go up, I'll go and negotiate with them alone." "Don't worry, I didn't plan to go up with you." The driver turned the shaft and was ready to go down the mountain at any time. Lu Qianjiao said: "I'll go with you."
Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "Too many people will cause trouble. You stay here to watch over the old car. I will bring people down later."
Li Banfeng used his skill of riding the wind and clouds to fly up the mountain close to the snow. The three sentinels lying in the bushes were tired and hungry. They were almost asleep, but suddenly woke up. The head in the middle asked, "Did something just pass by?"
The head on the left said, "It seems there is someone."
The head on the right hadn't opened its eyes yet: "Is there really someone? Why can't I see him?" Li Banfeng said: "If there is someone, don't scream."
The three men were startled and wanted to ring the gong to call the police.
Li Banfeng held down the three-headed man and explained, "Don't be afraid. If I wanted to kill you, I would have killed you long ago. I am here to save you. Do you recognize this?" As he spoke, Li Banfeng took out a human head from his waist. This was the one he had just chopped off in his residence.
The three-headed man looked at the head and felt it looked unfamiliar.
Li Banfeng took out another human head: "Do you recognize this one?" Judging from the expression, it seems that he doesn't recognize this one either.
Li Banfeng said helplessly: "How did you fight this battle? You don't even know any of the opponents?"
After trying six heads in a row, the three-headed man on the right finally spoke: "I know this, this is someone from the Innocence Army!"
"You are finally right. These are the people of the Innocence Army. These are all the people of the Innocence Army," Li Banfeng placed the heads in front of the three leaders. "The Innocence Army is your enemy. I killed your enemy and became your benefactor. Now take me to find your leader and I will take you down the mountain."
The three men looked at Li Banfeng together and asked, "Are you really my benefactor?" Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "The evidence is as strong as a mountain!"
The three-headed man took Li Banfeng to the top of the mountain, and he finally met the leader of the three-headed man.
The three heads of this leader are a woman in her thirties, a man in his early forties, and an old man in his seventies. The forty-year-old man named Tu Heng has the head in the middle. He is the leader among the three. He doesn't trust this late night visitor too much. "Where are you taking us? We are not going to the City of Sinners!"
"I didn't say I was taking you to the City of Sinners. I'm taking you away from Santoucha."
Tu Heng sneered: "They lied to us again. At the beginning, those people from other states told us to leave Santoucha, but didn't they change their mind later?" "Who changed its mind?" Li Banfeng didn't understand.
The head on Tu Heng's left is called Tu Min, who has a relatively gentle temperament. "Where else can we go after leaving Santoucha? Li Qi originally planned to take us in, but he changed his mind and insisted on sending us to the Sinner City. Where else can we go?"
"Li Qi?" Li Banfeng was stunned for a moment. After the person next to him explained it briefly, he understood the reason.
The reason why these 10,000 people were able to gather together was because Liao Zihui had initially selected them and was going to give them to Li Qi. But later, for some reason, Liao Zihui replaced them with another group of people and gave them to Li Qi.
Liao Zihui was afraid that the people he had chosen would cause trouble, so he planned to send them to the Sinner City.
Originally, this group of three-headed people thought they could leave Santoucha and regain their freedom, but now they entered the City of Sinners, which was like falling into an abyss. The serious gap made them completely out of control, and they ran to the Elbow Mountain, ready to fight to the death with the Guanfang Hall.
This incident certainly cannot be blamed on Li Qi, but Liao Zihui put the blame on Li Qi in order to appease the three-headed people. If this incident spreads in Santoucha, Li Qi's reputation will become extremely bad.
I should save these ten thousand people, but you can't force me to save them because it's not my fault. Li Banfeng finally understood the meaning of these words.
He did save 13,000 more people, but he also did harm the 13,000 people in front of him. Originally they could still survive, but now they are in danger of death, although this is definitely not his fault.
How to tell them?
Tell them that the person in front of you is Li Qi?
All of their resentment was directed at Li Qi, and if he spoke out now, he would lose their trust.
Li Banfeng looked at Tu Heng, then at the group of three-headed people: "Come with me, I am Li Qi's friend. As long as there is a three-headed fork, Li Qi will definitely take you in."
Tu Heng shook his head and said, "Then why didn't he take us in before?"
“Because Li Qi was more willing to take in friends, and you weren’t his friends at that time.
The old man on Tu Heng's right was called Tu Mang. He sighed and said, "We are not his friends now. Who are we? What is our fate? How can we climb up to his high position?"
"You are now Li Qi's friends," Li Banfeng explained patiently, "You are my friends, I am Li Qi's friend, and friends of friends are all friends. Look down, walk down this hillside, we are all friends, keep walking down this hillside, and we will be able to get out of Santoucha!"
The slope was very smooth and everyone around managed to climb down successfully. They all stared at the leader together.
Tu Min and Tu Mang both looked at Tu Heng in the middle.
Tu Heng considered for a long time and gave the order to assemble.
On the border, Zhao Xiaowan kept staring at the opposite side, waiting for Li Banfeng's figure.
Hong Ying took a few deep breaths in the cold wind: "How many years have I not seen snow? Maybe it's because I've been staying at home for too long. I'm not used to going out on such a cold day."
As she spoke, Hong Ying shuddered.
Zhao Xiaowan was startled: "Is it so cold?"
Hong Ying looked at the dark bridge cannon and asked: "Can you put this thing away first?"
"Put away the gun, how can my husband come out?"
Hong Ying looked around and said, "There are enemies coming, and there are quite a few of them."
