Chapter 432: Rocky Slope
"But Lu Huai, what are you going to do?" Lin Zhiqing sat on the horse and grabbed Lu Huai's sleeve.
Lu Huai chuckled: "How could anything happen to me? I'm just afraid that I can't protect you."
"Let's meet at the execution ground, okay, Qing?"
Lin Zhiqing tightened his grip on the reins: "I'll take a detour to the execution ground. Lu Huai, if you say you can get out, I believe you."
"See you at the execution ground!"
Time was running out and there was no extra time for either of them to think.
If they want to stop Jiang Liuyun, they can only go their separate ways!
Otherwise, the risk is too great.
Lin Zhiqing nodded and let go of Lu Huai's hand.
Lu Huai's eyes changed the moment he turned around.
He stared at the old man not far away, a cold light flashing on his sword.
Seeing that Lin Zhiqing wanted to run, the old man frowned and waved behind him.
More than ten men in black rushed out. Lu Huai moved quickly and flew towards them.
He moved among the crowd, dancing with his sword very neatly.
Just one person stopped the people who were chasing Lin Zhiqing.
The old man lost his patience and, seeing that the man in black was no match for Lu Huai, he stepped forward and joined the battle.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Huai looked back and confirmed that Lin Zhiqing had run for a distance. He calmly led the battle into the woods below.
By the time the old man realized his intention, it was too late. Lin Zhiqing had already disappeared.
The old man was furious and his attacks became more and more fierce.
Within three rounds, some blood appeared on Lu Huai's body.
He knew that he was no match for the old man, so he bent down and hid in the bushes below.
There are many pine trees in this forest, and there is a path on the slanted side.
He pushed aside the thorny branches and hurried down the path.
The old man gritted his teeth and followed Lu Huai's pace.
Someone will take Lin Zhiqing's life.
"Lu Huai, do you think you can run away?" The old man's low growl echoed in the woods.
Lu Huai ignored him, and the sound of a bowstring being pulled came from the left.
The sound was swift and powerful, and it must have been shot by the old man.
He narrowed his eyes slightly. The flight trajectory of the arrow would be affected by the southeast wind.
Lin Zhiqing once said that there is a word to describe time called second, and what they usually call a snap of the fingers is about seven seconds.
So, the arrow deflects about half an inch per second.
The old man was about thirty steps away from him, and he needed to aim three inches to the left to hit him.
It seemed that he rolled to the right, and the arrow grazed his left shoulder and was firmly embedded in the tree trunk.
"Damn it! He can even dodge this!" The old man was obviously very confident in his archery skills.
That's why he was so upset when his prey missed the target:
"Chase! I'm going to take Lu Huai's life today!"
At the same time, Lu Huai had already entered a bamboo forest.
While paying attention to the back, he also looked around, looking for the triangular structure that Lin Zhiqing had told him about.
Found it!
He took two steps back and stopped in front of three bamboos.
The footsteps of the man in black were heard twenty steps away.
Lu Huai quickly slashed the bamboo trunk to the right with his sword.
When the blade was embedded in the bamboo about three inches deep, he glanced at the path he had just entered.
The thick bamboo in front of us, when it falls at a 45-degree angle, can just block the pursuers' route and slow down their speed.
“Crack!”
The bamboo fell to the ground with a loud bang and got stuck between two other bamboos, forming a barrier.
Lu Huai moved forward under the cover of the bamboo forest.
He was not familiar with the forest, so he left a triangular mark on the bark every ten steps.
"He's right up ahead!"
"Chase quickly, beware of ambushes!"
"There seems to be a rocky slope ahead, be careful!"
Hearing this, Lu Huai took a deep breath.
These people are chasing too fast.
However, is there a rocky slope ahead?
He endured the pain and increased his speed.
Keep running like this is definitely not a solution.
The key is that Ah Qing has no martial arts skills. If he encounters an emergency, it will be difficult to cope with it and it will be very dangerous...
Thinking of this, Lu Huai took a deep breath.
He has to go faster, faster!
Soon, the rocky slope appeared before his eyes.
Boulders of various sizes are scattered on the slope, making it very rugged.
Lu Huai climbed up the stone slope in one go, his brain working at high speed, and he immediately thought of the circle measurement method in "Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art".
He fixed his eyes on the tallest and largest stone and made a quick estimate.
The boulder is twenty-seven feet long after three turns. If there is someone below, pushing the boulder, the boulder will roll down a slope of about thirty degrees, and its speed will increase by thirty percent with every foot of distance.
He took a deep breath and slowly stood behind the boulder.
"Hey, where are the people?"
Hearing the voice of the man in black looking for him, he pushed hard and the stone rolled down quickly.
Soon, he heard screams and collisions coming from below.
The old man cursed angrily, extremely furious.
Lu Huai pushed the stone next to him and then climbed over the rocky slope.
He had just observed that there was a bush behind it.
If the old man and the man in black wanted to chase him, they would definitely chase him in a straight line.
But within the bushes there was a curved bend carved out by a stream.
What Lu Huai had to do was to walk along that curved road.
Thinking of this, he immediately dived into the bushes.
Although running along an arc is a longer distance, you can maintain your speed with the help of centrifugal force.
If they keep going like this, the man in black who is chasing in a straight line will definitely be left behind at the bend.
Thinking of this, he moved extremely quickly.
The black-clad men behind them passed the rocky slope just now, and there were only a few people left who had come up.
The old man had never encountered such a difficult situation and could hardly control his anger.
He saw with his own eyes that Lu Huai nimbly slipped into the bushes and drew his bow to shoot arrows again.
He grew up on horseback and was a warrior with outstanding riding and archery skills.
Even after spending so many years in Dasheng, he never gave up this skill.
It was just an accident that Lu Huai dodged it just now!
He narrowed his eyes and aimed the arrow at the rustling grass.
put!
The feather arrow flew towards Lu Huai with a strong murderous aura.
At the same time, the remaining men in black followed into the bushes.
Lu Huai moved forward quickly, but a familiar sound of breaking air came to his ears.
He quickly analyzed the situation in his mind and dodged to the left.
“Ding!”
The feather arrow pierced the place where he had just stood, splashing some mud spots that fell on Lu Huai's handsome face.
But Lu Huai had no time to wipe off the stains, because another series of breaking air sounds came.
He raised his sword to block an arrow, then quickly somersaulted forward.
After dodging several feather arrows in succession, a layer of fine sweat beads appeared on his forehead.
I wanted to get up immediately, but the wound on my back felt like it was torn apart and it hurt a lot.
no!
No matter how painful it is, I have to get rid of the people behind me as soon as possible and rush to Aqing's side.
Thinking of this, Lu Huai stuck his sword into the ground and used the force to stand up.
The road ahead is still very long...
