The alley was dark, but for the Taoist, there was no obstacle for him. Pei Ziyun ran away, regardless of using Taoism, and his speed continued to increase.
"kill"
Killing cries kept coming from the distance. They were the sounds of cavalry being killed. Cold sweat slid down his forehead. Pei Ziyun's eyes were solemn. He never imagined that the Earth Immortal could be so terrifying.
"Can't stop for a moment." Pei Ziyun thought to himself, constantly switching directions in the alley. As the speed increased, the mana moved faster and faster, and his skin turned red.
"Pei Ziyun, you don't care about your subordinates, you must be cold-hearted!" Xie Chengdong kept chasing after him, and even talked to shake his mind.
"Humph, under Xu's military law, the general is killed in battle and all his own soldiers are killed."
"For a general like me to bring trouble to the family, it's not just a personal matter."
"If you die fighting for me, you can get a pension or even a posthumous gift. If I die, not only will they die, but they will also harm their wives and children." Steam emerged from the top of Pei Zi's cloud, showing that he was using his speed to the limit, but It's just a matter of not being caught up.
But on this issue, I have a clear conscience.
In the era of cold weapons, war was very cruel. In order to ensure the morale and will of the army, it was natural to formulate military laws to punish soldiers who ran away and were not active in fighting. The most important one was that if the general died, all the soldiers would be executed.
Not to mention warlords, even the famous Yue Fei was the same.
Yue Fei and Cao Cheng fought at Moxie Pass, and his general Han Shunfu died in the battle. Yue Fei killed all Han Shunfu's soldiers and ordered Han Shunfu's deputy general Wang to continue commanding the headquarters.
When Gao Yang was conquering the Hu people in the north, a governor died in battle. Gao Yang immediately killed the soldiers responsible for protecting the governor and ordered his soldiers to eat the human flesh of the soldiers who had failed in their duty.
Therefore, when Pei Ziyun saw that the situation was not right, he retreated decisively and ordered the scout battalions to go up. Even though the captain knew that he would die, he had no choice but to go up.
That's the rule.
If Xie Chengdong wants to use this to shake his belief and even stop himself to support the soldiers, then he is the number one idiot in the world.
These thoughts flashed past, and Pei Ziyun flashed into an alley. The alley was narrow and dirty. When the figure passed through, he was startled by the sound of dogs barking.
Xie Chengdong also gritted his teeth and followed. Pei Ziyun instinctively hid his magic power in order to reduce the number of targets, but he did the opposite. His magic power rushed out to guide the earth immortal. Under the pressure of this magic power, dogs in the alley barked. The sound stopped, and they all made whining sounds, filled with fear.
Xie Chengdong chased all the way and followed closely. If the alley had not had many twists and turns and the speed was slower, he would have caught up long ago. Cold sweat ran down Pei Ziyun's forehead, and his hot and red skin quickly evaporated.
"Damn it, damn it, Xie Chengdong's magic power is indeed superior to mine. I have pushed the wind body and cloud body to the limit, but I still can't widen the gap."
"If I am intercepted by Xie Chengdong, the Earth Immortal will kill me!" Pei Ziyun looked at the distance and suddenly stretched out his hand to take out something. At this time, he didn't have time to light it with a fire, but he just blew it and heard a "pop", and the fuse suddenly It ignited and burned quickly.
"Boom" a firework shot up into the sky and exploded, with the word "Pei" in capital letters.
"No, Pei Ziyun may still have support." Seeing this situation, Xie Chengdong was also frightened and angry. He could no longer retain any strength, and his speed also increased a few points.
The two of them walked through the alley one after another, and suddenly it turned dark, but it was a dead end. Pei Ziyun was not surprised, but was overjoyed - the end of the alley was the county wall.
"Xie Chengdong, just wait and eat the dust!" Pei Ziyun summoned his magic power, and his whole body was suddenly filled with a hazy light. For a moment, he was as light as a swallow. He landed on the ground, stepped on the house, and then pounced straight towards the county wall. Go up.
"When you escape this time, you must hit Feng Tiyun." Pei Ziyun had landed on the wall and was about to jump off. At this moment, his vision suddenly went dark, and the world and himself seemed to disappear in an instant. Then a ball of cold light exploded and turned into meteors all over the sky, flying towards him together.
"It's the swordsmanship, the swordsmanship of the Earth Immortal." Pei Ziyun was shocked. He knew clearly that even the Earth Immortal's speed would not be much higher than his own, and his swordsmanship might not be that good, but this was the interference of his magical power. senses.
If you can't break free and fall under this illusion, even if the Earth Immortal doesn't even know how to use a sword, he can easily kill you.
"Damn it, damn it, this is not swordsmanship at all." Pei Ziyun knew that many so-called advanced swordsmanship was actually just this. For example, the flying immortals from outside the sky interfered with the senses. He originally despised this kind of thing, but when the earthly immortals used it, he But I can’t tell which one is true and which one is false!
This is to prove the Tao with force, but this force is magic power.
At the critical moment of life and death, Pei Ziyun just pointed his sword in one place, and the meteors all over the sky disappeared. This was an indescribable scene.
Pei Ziyun fell out, his face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow" sound midway.
A middle-aged Taoist appeared in the air, and the sword he held was also shocked: "Good swordsmanship, breaking through on the spot, really powerful, but your journey ends here."
Before he finished speaking, Xie Chengdong threw himself down on the wall and stabbed down with his sword. Pei Ziyun was still in mid-air and stopped with a "clang" sound.
"This man's swordsmanship is really amazing." Xie Chengdong just thought about it, then heard a horse neighing, and his expression changed greatly: "Grandmaster, no, Pei Ziyun has taken care of him."
"If Pei Ziyun escapes and we use black guards to assassinate him, we will no longer be able to hide him. This will bring huge trouble to King Lu."
In the past, attacking Pei Ziyun didn't matter. It was just a Jieyuan. The court would not fight against a prince for a Jieyuan. But now that Pei Ziyun is the commander of an army and an imperial envoy to quell the chaos, the nature is completely different. I originally wanted to be foolproof. , Kill calmly dealt with the situation, but now there is such a big mistake.
After hearing this, the middle-aged Taoist sighed: "I originally wanted to keep this body alive, but now it seems that I can't care less."
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged Taoist was bleeding from all his orifices.
At this time, Pei Ziyun had already thrown down the city wall, and saw five cavalrymen rushing towards him. However, he saw the fireworks signal and rushed over, holding a horse in his hand: "Real person?"
Pei Ziyun jumped over and landed on the horse. He whipped his whip and shouted: "Hurry up!"
The cavalrymen were also surprised and realized that they were all proficient in equestrian skills. As soon as they turned, they turned their horses' heads and galloped out after Pei Ziyun, protecting everyone on the left and right.
The middle-aged Taoist on the wall opened his eyes and saw a sudden gust of wind in the air. The wind started out as a breeze, then turned into a normal wind, and then turned into a strong wind, surrounding the middle-aged Taoist.
Feeling the wind, the middle-aged Taoist just jumped and his speed suddenly became much faster. Although he was not flying, he was almost flying in a short period of time, and he caught up with him.
Xie Chengdong exhaled heavily, with envy in his eyes - this is the Earth Immortal!
As they were galloping along the official road, they saw an enemy approaching behind them, wrapped in the wind. The remaining five cavalrymen suddenly shouted, turned their horses' heads, and charged back.
"Protect the real person!" These people roared and turned around to kill. Pei Ziyun looked back, raised his whip and whipped the horse as hard as he could, and sighed in his heart: "I will remember you."
The Earth Immortal was furious: "Go to hell!"
"Peng", an electric arc flashed in the dark night, followed by sword light, human heads and horse heads flew out immediately, and blood spurted out for several feet.
At this time, Pei Ziyun had already moved another hundred meters away: "Strengthening Technique!"
He patted the horse with his hand and heard a "crack" sound. The horse neighed and accelerated instantly.
The Earth Immortal was able to kill five people, but the wind had disappeared. He watched Pei Ziyun go away, but his face was no longer calm. He snorted coldly, and then the wind came up again, rolling his body and continuing to move forward.
Pei Ziyun looked back and saw that the wind was always surrounding the Taoist's body, carrying him forward. Although he was not flying, he was very fast, and he was as strong as a horse, but he was whipping the horse hard.
Two-quarters of an hour later, when they reached a corner, the horse could no longer bear it. It neighed and knelt down. Pei Ziyun fell out.
"Go to hell!" The Earth Immortal, a hundred meters away, whose orifices were full of blood and whose face could no longer be seen clearly, was squeezing out all his potential. When he saw him, he jumped on him with great joy.
Pei Ziyun's heart sank and he was about to fight to the death. At this moment, he heard the sound of horse hooves and someone shouted: "Who?"
Seeing several cavalrymen turning around and coming up, Pei Ziyun was immediately overjoyed: "It's me, come quickly!"
As he said that, he said "Puff" to the sky, and a ball of light lit up. It was not to attack, but to let the cavalry on the opposite side see clearly. He used his remaining strength and ran straight towards the cavalry.
"It's a real person!" The cavalryman saw it and immediately approached. The Earth Immortal was a little faster. Seeing that it was too late, he threw his sword away.
"Poof!" There was a flash of cold light, and Pei Ziyun subconsciously lurked. The sword passed through his hair, but it rushed forward, made a sudden turn, and stabbed back.
"The law has its essence!" Pei Ziyun was shocked, and subconsciously stabbed him with his sword. With a "clang" sound, a huge force hit him, and Pei Ziyun fell to the ground.
"Kill!" Immediately, more than 20 people got off their horses and raised their shields to protect Pei Ziyun. Pei Ziyun was convinced when he saw the cavalry rushing forward.
"Crack!" The electric arc flashed, but the ones in front stopped, and those behind continued to charge. The swords were shining in the direction, and blood was splashing. Seeing that every time the Earth Immortal made a sword, there would be casualties, and no one could stop it. However, the large group of cavalry rushed forward to catch up. He suppressed it with all his strength, and in a blink of an eye, there were piles of corpses.
"kill!"
"Use a crossbow!"
"Raise your shield and press forward." The captain behind just looked at it and ordered continuously. More people rushed forward and quickly turned into corpses.
But even so, the Earth Immortal was not intact. After killing for a moment, the last arc of electricity flashed. When the sword light hit, several cavalrymen were dead and their heads were missing. The middle-aged Taoist in the middle was scarred, and he let out a sigh. A ray of light flew out from the top and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.
"Sure enough, although he is not afraid of the dragon's energy and wind and thunder, the Earth Immortal is still a human being and there are still limits." After only a moment, half the company of cavalry died, but they still won the victory. Pei Ziyun's whole body was exhausted. He almost collapsed, holding on to the order: "Clean the battlefield and rush to Baoyang County."
