Chapter 266: Report to General Zhao, the thief has been captured and awaits his punishment
"This armor is indeed very heavy on the ground,"
On the abandoned watchtower, Zhao Duan squinted his eyes at the fighting in the distance. When he saw the iron pagoda, which was like a locomotive, being kicked and slid backwards, he couldn't help but take a deep breath:
"Zhang Han and his team deserved their defeat."
Although he has not yet been promoted, his sparring with the Empress has broadened his horizons, and his exchanges with the Eight Halls' Justices have given him a deeper understanding of the power of normal "Shen Zhang" realm warriors.
Although I can't see the subtle details at this moment, judging from his strength, this guy is worthy of being a leader at the pinnacle of the Divine Chapter.
"Haha, it seems that this one alone is not enough to take him down." Eunuch Hai looked leisurely as if he was watching a show.
Zhao Duan said calmly:
"Do you really think all these people are here to watch the fight?"
…
Slippery closed streets.
Chai Keqiao's kick was met with force from Tie Fu Tu, who sent him tumbling backwards in mid-air.
In the direction of his retreat, on the other side of the imperial guards' armored formation, a military commander wearing soft armor and with a mustache was holding his sword with one hand.
He didn't even blink, not even noticing the raindrops flowing into his eyes.
He pressed his thumb on the sword guard, pushed the long and narrow sword out an inch, then sheathed it, stroking it back and forth several times.
He suddenly bent his stance, lowered his waist, and with a push of his knees, he leaped high into the air, as if flying to the top of the city wall.
The scabbard fell to the ground like a dead tree, and the thick and narrow blade cut through the air, unpredictable, and slashed towards the young man in straw sandals and straw raincoat.
“Woo—”
Chai Keqiao's ears moved slightly, catching the hidden sound of breaking through the air. When he rolled over, he had nowhere to gain leverage.
He just reached for his waist with his right hand, and turned around to block the axe made of black iron, which looked ordinary but was actually very extraordinary.
"bite!"
The axe head touched the blade precisely.
At this moment, the rain around the two people in the air shook, and then blew away in all directions under the invisible air waves.
Chai Keqiao fell straight to the ground, followed closely by a lightly armored general holding a knife in both hands.
The two men fell to the ground, but their weapons were stuck together and did not separate.
"Die!"
The lightly-armored general seemed to have a very hot temper. As soon as he landed on the ground, a faint halo spread out around his body.
That is the protective energy of a warrior in the Shenzhang realm.
Hold the knife with both hands, lean forward, and move your center of gravity forward.
In an instant, he was like a mad tiger, slashing with the sword twelve times in a single breath!
“Ding ding ding ding…”
The sound of weapons clashing was continuous, and the blades left afterimages, pressing Chai Keqiao down forcefully.
The straw-sandaled woodcutter from the East China Sea also summoned up his protective Qi to block the exploding sword energy.
The axe in his hand seemed slow and traceable, forming a sharp contrast with the continuous slashing that left afterimages.
He retreated so quickly without touching the ground, but he felt relaxed and at ease.
"This is the sharpest sword in the army. If you keep striking with it, it will not stop. If you go crazy, your strength will rise to a higher level.
However, the soldier's skill in continuous killing is average.
Back then, one of the Ten Imperial Household Attendants forged this sharp sword, took a deep breath, and leaped from the top of the city wall, piercing through the enemy formation. When he paused, the top-grade sword in his hand abruptly flipped open. "Eunuch Hai commented leisurely.
The Ten Eunuchs... that was hundreds of years ago...
Why don't you start from the time when Qin Shi Huang unified the world? Oh, there is no Qin Shi Huang in this world... Zhao Duan complained in his heart and said:
"What about Chai Keqiao?"
Eunuch Hai said calmly:
"This person isn't using any combat tactics; he's responding purely on instinct. As long as you're strong enough, reacting quickly enough, and moving your body smoothly, you don't need any crappy martial arts skills... Hey, kid, look carefully, don't miss anything."
Zhao Duan looked at it intently and was slightly stunned.
I saw two people attacking and defending on the field.
At the other end, General Futu, who had previously stood firm, had finished regulating his breathing.
Standing silently in the autumn rain.
He waited patiently for the two men to approach, and suddenly, he silently lowered his knees and bent down, and his two armored arms suddenly hammered the ground.
"Bang!"
The ground shook slightly, and the people who were secretly watching the fight in the shops on both sides seemed to skip a beat at the same time.
Then I saw it in amazement.
The layer of accumulated water covering the street suddenly formed fine wrinkles.
The scattered pebbles also shook and jumped!
The green bricks half-buried in the mud loosened and bulged, as if a force underground had condensed into a line, rising and falling and approaching Chai Keqiao who was retreating continuously!
However, when the straw sandal slowly stepped on the ground, the restless bricks and rolling pebbles returned to silence at the same time.
“Dongdong——”
General Fu Tu, who looked like a black tower, had taken heavy steps and launched another charge without anyone noticing when.
A gleam of brilliance flashed across Chai Keqiao's wheat-colored face and eyes.
The axe in his hand suddenly drew a graceful and mysterious arc, and burst out with amazing power, chopping the lightly armored military officer with a sharp sword, who was about to run out of breath, and sent him flying backwards.
Immediately, Chai Keqiao turned around on the spot, and the straw raincoat on his body lifted up a flowing semicircle like a skirt.
The axe held tightly in his hand was thrown out suddenly, turning into a black light.
The flying axe spun in the drizzle and circled behind Tie Fu Tu. Chai Keqiao opened his five fingers and grabbed it in the air.
The axe was suddenly pulled by an invisible rope!
It stopped abruptly and hung in the air.
Then, it spun at an even more terrifying speed and slashed towards the back of General Futu's neck.
"Lower your head!"
The military officer holding the slashing knife on the opposite side shouted.
General Futu suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart. He rolled over on the spot to avoid the axe, but he also lost the opportunity to fight.
He simply attacked Chai Keqiao's lower body fiercely, and the military officer with a knife took the opportunity to move forward and slash with the knife.
For a moment, Chai Keqiao was attacked from both sides, and his body suddenly seemed to have lost weight, like a leaf in the wind.
No matter how the two attacked, they cleverly dodged.
The three of them fought in a stalemate, and Chai Keqiao actually had the upper hand.
…
"Autumn leaves..."
On the roof of a distant house, the white-robed monk Bian Ji exclaimed in praise.
Gongshu Tianyuan glanced at him and asked, "What autumn leaves?"
Bian Ji did not argue with him, but continued to speak:
"Isn't this man's method at this moment like an autumn leaf falling in the wind? It's not martial arts, but it's better than martial arts. Or perhaps it's that he has long forgotten martial arts, and everything in the world is martial arts in his eyes.
Although I am limited by my cultivation level and cannot defeat these powerful men in the army, I have a promising future and there will be successors to my legacy."
"He's talking nonsense..."
Gongshu Tianyuan looked unhappy, feeling as if the knowledge had entered his mind but had not retained any of it.
Although he is very talented, he has only a superficial understanding of martial arts, and the Tianshi Mansion is not good at martial arts.
He turned his head, and the miniature lens on his eye socket suddenly rotated and contracted.
The scene on the watchtower appeared in the camera.
Gongshu Tianyuan was stunned.
Because he found that Zhao Duan was extremely focused at this moment, as if he was completely immersed in a certain state.
Autumn leaves...leaves swaying in the wind...
Zhao Duan squinted his eyes and watched this scene, and suddenly recalled in his mind the scene of Chai Keqiao standing under the ginkgo tree and catching fallen leaves in his hands not long ago.
"Is he imitating a ginkgo leaf?"
Zhao Duan suddenly understood something, and ripples began to form in his heart.
It's as if something is trying to break through the soil, take root and sprout, but there is an obstacle in the way.
Although the two days were not the same, at this moment, he felt as if he were seeing Emperor Taizu performing martial arts in a dream.
For some reason, he felt a strong urge to immediately visualize and enter the Martial God Diagram.
Did this guy really see into it?
So fast?
Eunuch Hai looked at him in surprise and doubt, thinking that this was bad.
But don't make things worse and disturb the Qingshan clan. He suddenly opened his mouth and said:
"It seems these two can't take it down."
Zhao Duan was awakened, and the strong urge in his heart to immediately go to the Martial God Map to verify something overwhelmed the fun of watching the battle.
He snorted coldly and said:
"Tell the other side to stop playing and end it."
Behind him, Zheng Laojiu took out a strange whistle from his arms, put it in his mouth, and blew it hard.
far away.
On the blocked long street, the two people who were fighting with Chai Keqiao retreated violently at the same time, leaving a distance of several feet between them.
Panting and taking a defensive stance.
They consumed a lot of energy in this battle.
But... the goal has been achieved!
"It's time to wrap up."
The high wall of iron shields suddenly cracked, and a tall warrior stepped onto the battlefield holding a black iron spear with a patterned pattern.
The moment the military boots stepped on the puddles on the ground, the rainwater in the potholes was instantly evaporated.
After being exhausted by the two powerful soldiers, Chai Keqiao fell to the ground lightly like a fallen leaf and turned around to look back.
The next second, his body froze and was locked by a series of energy.
His warrior instinct told him that if he dodged in any direction, he would be dealt a fatal blow.
In the military formations on both sides, powerful men who had not yet taken action drew their weapons.
On the roof, silent crossbowmen adjusted their shooting angles, working in groups of three to lock onto a specific direction.
A dragnet.
Chai Keqiao realized that this was the real power of the Dayu army formation when it was in operation.
Although a warrior is strong, he is like being trapped in a spider web quagmire, with nowhere to escape, whether in heaven or on earth.
Only...
He pursed his lips and tried to thrust the axe forward.
In his pupils, he saw an officer holding a spear suddenly approaching.
"puff!"
Chai Keqiao only felt a sharp pain under his ribs as the spear pierced his flesh on the side of his waist. His body was lifted up by the momentum and fell heavily on his back onto the street filled with puddles and cold rain!
The blood dyed the straw raincoat red.
The cold raindrops slapped his face.
Chai Keqiao smiled and said softly:
"sharp."
The tall general used his gun to lift the brim of his hat off, staring down at him blankly, frowning:
"The madman from Qingshan."
Qingshan is home to many martial arts enthusiasts, and as he looked, he saw another one in front of him.
Thinking about it this way, one person challenging the imperial court is more like a means of actively attracting experts.
"Come here! Capture this thief and hand him over to Zhao Chen for punishment!"
Soldiers with knives approached quickly.
Chai Keqiao did not move. His injuries and exhaustion had made him unable to resist.
When he was dragged by the government troops, he looked strange and said:
"You...were you sent by that Zhao Duan...? Where is he?"
The officer holding the spear sneered:
"Are you worthy enough to see General Zhao?"
Having said that, he turned and left.
Four infantrymen were left behind to shackle and chain Chai Keqiao's hands and feet, and then they forcibly carried him face up on their shoulders and dragged him out of the long street.
…
A moment later.
On the watchtower, Zhao Duan stood with his hands behind his back, rubbing his brows quietly, only to hear the sound of footsteps approaching rapidly below.
An officer came upstairs and clasped his hands together:
"General Zhao, the thief has been captured and awaits his punishment!"
…
