Volume 2 The Battle of the Yellow Turban Chapter 236 The strength of the internal qi
Updated: 2012-12-31
In the eyes of outsiders, Colonel Zuo and Ling Yan's bodies were motionless, only the glowing weapon junction flashed with a dazzling light.
Ling Yan's eyes stared at Colonel Zuo, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Brother You...... Rush ......"
When You Heng heard Ling Yan's words, he hurriedly used his internal qi again and struck at the Yellow Turban Army behind Colonel Zuo; And Lu Gong was also stunned for a while, and then brandished his spear and rushed into the left colonel's position.
At this time, Wu Heng's soldiers and horses had already reached the rear of Ling Yan's army, and the soldiers behind were fighting with Wu Heng's soldiers.
Although Ling Yan couldn't see the surrounding scene, his ears heard all kinds of sounds, and he naturally heard the shouting and killing sound and the collision of weapons behind him, and he immediately realized that it was Wu Heng fighting with his soldiers and horses behind.
Ling Yan was secretly anxious, on the one hand, he must not have the slightest distraction, otherwise he would let Colonel Zuo take the opportunity to gain the upper hand; On the other hand, he also had to think about how to lead his soldiers out of danger.
However, at this extremely tense moment, Ling Yan couldn't think of a good way at all, but the pressure on his hands was getting bigger and bigger, and he was getting more and more difficult, which Ling Yan clearly felt.
Just when Ling Yan felt that he was a little difficult to support, Zuo Xiao suddenly jumped backwards and swung his qi sword down.
Ling Yan was "put on a beating" by Colonel Zuo, and almost fell off the horse in front, but fortunately, he held the horse with one hand, and then he straightened his body.
That intense light disappeared as soon as the two of them separated their weapons, and the internal qi light on Ling Yan's knife seemed to have returned to its previous strength.
Colonel Zuo looked at Ling Yan coldly, and then turned his head to look to the side.
Ling Yan thought that Colonel Zuo's strategy was to avoid a blow first, then rush up, and then engage - if this was the case, then Ling Yan really didn't know what to do, because the effect of his "breaking" had disappeared the moment the weapons were separated, and at this time, the internal qi on the Moon Slashing Knife was absolutely no match for Colonel Zuo, and if he shouted out the cultivation trick again, I don't know if it would still work, after all, he had already used it twice in a row, and the degree of internal qi consumption was very large, which Ling Yan could clearly realize - His body was very flustered now, and he felt that the internal qi was violently active, and in this case, Ling Yan knew that it was a reaction after a large amount of internal qi was consumed - and the remaining internal qi, I don't know if it could also play a "breaking" role.
However, Ling Yan's worries seemed to be a little redundant, and after Colonel Zuo jumped away, he did not kill Ling Yan again, but after forming another qi sword, he rushed towards You Heng.
Ling Yan was startled, he knew that Colonel Zuo was worried about his soldiers, so he was going to kill You Heng, so he hurriedly set his horse on his horse to intercept him.
After all, Colonel Zuo couldn't outrun the speed of a horse, and Ling Yan was very close to Colonel Zuo, so Ling Yan stopped in front of Colonel Zuo in two steps, used all his internal energy, and swung the Moon Chopping Knife to slash at Colonel Zuo.
Colonel Zuo hurriedly resisted with the air sword, and resisted it again with the moon slashing knife.
But this time, Ling Yan didn't feel as easy as he did just now - just now at least he could fight with Zuo Xiaoxiao, although it was also very difficult, but he finally didn't let Zuo Xiao gain the upper hand. But this time, the gap between Ling Yan and Colonel Zuo suddenly became apparent.
The Moon Slashing Knife and the Qi Sword only touched for a second, and Ling Yan felt a shock in his hand, and if he didn't hold it steady, the Moon Slashing Sword in his hand was taken out of his hand, and he was knocked out by the Qi Sword.
Ling Yan was taken aback, he didn't have time to get back the Moon Slashing Knife at all, so Colonel Zuo took the opportunity to swing another sword, this sword struck straight towards Ling Yan's lower body.
In a hurry, Ling Yan didn't have time to think about it, and as soon as he turned over, he flipped off the horse and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Ling Yan reacted quickly, and at the same time as he landed, Colonel Zuo waved his hands, and Ling Yan dismounted, and was instantly split into two by Colonel Zuo, and the horse's head was easily cut off by the air sword.
At this time, the situation completely changed, and it was obvious that Colonel Zuo had the absolute upper hand.
Anyone can see this, You Heng saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly rushed towards Colonel Zuo, sending out an internal air wave as he rushed.
Originally, Colonel Zuo wanted to go to meet You Heng, but when he saw that Ling Yan was knocked off his horse, he immediately changed his mind, no longer paid attention to You Heng, and walked towards Ling Yan.
The internal air wave struck Colonel Zuo's back, and Colonel Zuo's body staggered forward for a moment, and then stopped, but did not turn around, but after a short pause, he walked towards Ling Yan again.
You Heng was behind Colonel Zuo, he just saw Colonel Zuo just pause after being hit by an internal air wave in his own air, but he didn't see Colonel Zuo's expression, he probably thought that after Colonel Zuo was hit, his expression must be painful, and he just walked towards Ling Yan stiffly.
However, Ling Yan was completely facing Colonel Zuo, and he could clearly see Colonel Zuo's expression - at this time, Colonel Zuo's expression could be described as terrifying to the extreme, his face was gloomy to the extreme, and there was an extreme killing intent in his eyes, which looked so hideous that it was chilling, and after he was hit by the internal qi wave just now, he only grinned slightly at the corner of his mouth, and then returned to that hideous expression.
At this time, Ling Yan fully realized Colonel Zuo's hatred for himself, to what extent - looking at Colonel Zuo's expression, it seemed that if he didn't break himself into pieces, he couldn't solve his hatred at all.
As Colonel Zuo approached step by step, the more frightened Ling Yan's heart became, he moved his hands and feet to stand up, but he tried many times but was unsuccessful, he just retreated with his hands and feet - Ling Yan was not injured, and falling off the horse was also an emergency measure he took the initiative to do, although it hurt to fall off such a high horse, but it was only a skin injury, in this emergency moment, that small injury was not enough at all, and the reason why Ling Yan couldn't stand up was entirely because the fear of internal qi had reached a certain level, and he was flustered in his heart, Therefore, the hands and feet are not very "obedient to orders".
The reason why Ling Yan was afraid of Colonel Zuo didn't seem to be completely worried about being killed by Colonel Zuo, but the biggest reason was from Colonel Zuo's expression, that kind of expression, as Ling Yan, who was only in his twenties, was undoubtedly no different from a nightmare.
Colonel Zuo was getting closer and closer, and he had already separated his palms, and the qi sword had disappeared. But at this time, Zuo Colonel put his hands together, and the formidable qi sword suddenly appeared again.
Ling Yan was greatly alarmed, he didn't expect that Colonel Zuo's Qi Sword would be able to appear all the time, as if it would not consume his internal qi at all.
At this time, Colonel Zuo suddenly stared at Ling Yan and sneered.
Colonel Zuo suddenly sneered, Ling Yan knew that something was wrong, in the past, he would always see the enemy before attacking, and when he was completely sure of victory, this kind of expression would appear. And Colonel Zuo suddenly showed this strange expression on his indifferent face, proving that Colonel Zuo was about to make a move!
Out of the instinct of self-preservation, Ling Yan hurriedly stretched out his arm in a panic and shouted at Colonel Zuo: "Wait! ”
Colonel Zuo seemed to be stunned for a moment, and in the middle of this stunned void, Ling Yan hurriedly interjected: "General Zuo!" I know you hate me, but can you tell me why you hate me so much after all? Was it just because I killed those dozens of Yellow Turban soldiers? ”
Ling Yan asked, in fact, he just wanted to delay time, although he didn't know what effect delaying time could play in saving his life, and he didn't have much hope that You Heng or Lu Gong would save his life, but he subconsciously knew that if he could delay for a while, maybe there would be some turnaround, either someone would come to save him, or Colonel Zuo suddenly changed his mind...... Even if none of this was possible, then he would at least be able to live for a few more minutes, which Ling Yan couldn't ask for now.
Colonel Zuo didn't seem to see Ling Yan's thoughts, he stopped, his expression was still hideous, he sneered, and his voice was extremely low: "General Yan...... If you kill dozens of my Yellow Turban soldiers, it is equivalent to killing me! Those dozens of Yellow Turban soldiers are all my beloved, and I don't care if anyone dies, but as long as they are killed, I will take that person's life, and even if one of my soldiers dies, I will kill hundreds of thousands of people to honor my soldiers...... Hmph, and you, General Yan, killed nearly a hundred of my soldiers at once, this kind of hatred, even if you are killed, how can it be calmed! After speaking, Colonel Zuo swung his qi sword, which seemed to be burning with flames, emitting a chilling light, "General Yan...... Killing you won't make me much better, but at least I'll kill you first, and in the end, I'm going to kill everyone, everyone related to you! Come and avenge my soldiers! ”
Colonel Zuo's last few words, he gritted his teeth, and Ling Yan could tell that he was going to make a move after saying these few words—this was also a characteristic that Ling Yan had discovered in the past—often the last sentence before the enemy wanted to make a move, and it would seem extraordinarily forceful.
Therefore, Ling Yan hurriedly delayed again, and said, "General Zuo! If I don't kill them then, they will kill my soldiers! Isn't that the same? Well, well, even if my soldiers can't compare to yours, you still have these Yellow Turban soldiers, and I didn't kill them after I captured them! ”
Colonel Zuo smiled even more stunned: "General Yan, you occupy Juye City, and I will never forget my internal qi...... As for you not killing these Yellow Turban soldiers, I also know that you want to use us to fight for you, hehe...... You're really good at it......"
Ling Yan was busy: "General Zuo, you misunderstood!" You don't know me as a person! I'm definitely not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of people! Yes, I want you to help me fight the siege, but at the same time, I'm sincere to you! If you don't believe me, you can ask my men, they can prove it! I was so worried when I found out that you went to attack Jiyin City and Dingtao City alone! Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to your aid! ”
Ling Yan said these words quite quickly, he wanted to finish the words quickly, so as not to take the time to command the qi sword; Moreover, Ling Yan also wanted to use these words to influence Colonel Zuo, and wanted him to understand his hard work - and these words, Ling Yan really didn't talk nonsense, but also what he thought in his heart.
However, Colonel Zuo didn't seem to be moved at all, not only that, he didn't seem to want to talk to Ling Yan anymore, he sneered, and the qi sword moved backwards again-Ling Yan could completely see that this was Colonel Zuo accumulating strength, and the next action was to swing his sword and slash at him!
Ling Yan was in a hurry for a while, he didn't know what to say, he could only wave his hands indiscriminately: "General Zuo!" Listen to me......"
Before Ling Yan's words were finished, Colonel Zuo swung his qi sword in front of him.
But just at the same time, another internal air wave hit Zuo Colonel's back, Zuo Colonel paused slightly, and the expression on his face became a little painful, so his hand also trembled slightly, and the light of the qi sword, after a slight dimming, brightened again.
Ling Yan knew that Colonel Zuo was about to swing it down again.
However, it was Colonel Zuo who hit the gap of the internal air wave that gave Ling Yan a chance to live.
Ling Yan took advantage of Colonel Zuo's pause, quickly stretched out one hand backwards, grabbed the pistol, and then quickly took it out and pointed it at Colonel Zuo.
In fact, Ling Yan thought of the pistol behind him when Colonel Zuo was just approaching just now, but it seemed that Colonel Zuo's speed was one step faster just now, and it seemed too late to take out the pistol, and Ling Yan was also occupied by fear just now, so he didn't dare to take out his pistol in a panic.
Now, Ling Yan took out his pistol, in fact, it was a last resort, because the last chance for his life was the time difference caused by the pause of Colonel Zuo, but if Ling Yan didn't grasp this time difference well, or if he didn't act at all, then there would be no more chance to live, the only difference was that he died one second earlier and died one second late.
And although Ling Yan reacted quickly to grasp this short opportunity, he still had a concern, which he had from the beginning: he didn't know how fast he could hold the gun, and whether he could fight faster than Zuo Colonel's sword.
In Ling Yan's opinion, it is absolutely impossible for his own to be able to compare with Colonel Zuo's speed, what he imagined was that as soon as his hand reached behind his back, Colonel Zuo's sword would be chopped down, so before he could take out his pistol, he would definitely be split in two by Colonel Zuo, in this way, it was almost the same as waiting for death.
But when Ling Yan was desperate, pulling out his pistol seemed to be his only chance to survive, so he fought desperately, and in less than a second after Colonel Zuo paused, Ling Yan quickly took out his pistol and pointed it at Colonel Zuo.
It can be said that in terms of speed, Ling Yan won - he didn't know why Colonel Zuo would watch him pull out a pistol and point it at him, maybe he was hit by an internal air wave in his back, and his body was in pain and stopped; Maybe Colonel Zuo remembered Ling Yan's "secret weapon", and in a trance, Ling Yan grabbed the upper hand.
Ling Yan held the gun and aimed at Colonel Zuo, he swallowed hard, his eyes looked at Colonel Zuo deadly, he did not speak, and the hand holding the gun trembled slightly.
Colonel Zuo was stunned in this effort, but Ling Yan took out his pistol, which surprised him very much, which could be seen from his expression, what made Ling Yan feel even more excited was that Colonel Zuo seemed to hesitate and was a little timid, because he stopped, the air sword in his hand also stopped in the air, although the expression on his face was still a little hideous, but more turned into panic.
This point was captured by Ling Yan, so when he was slightly relieved, he was also secretly glad that he felt that there was hope of escape.
However, at the same time, Ling Yan was also extremely nervous and uneasy in his heart, which he did not reveal.
The reason for Ling Yan's nervousness, Zuo Xiao naturally didn't know, and Ling Yan would definitely not let Zuo Xiao see it, because if Zuo Xiao knew, then Ling Yan probably wouldn't have the possibility of threatening Zuo Xiao's bargaining chips and life. And this kind of nervousness was also a very important reason why Ling Yan had not escaped from the pistol before.
The reason for this is - Ling Yan's pistol is not loaded!
Whether you have seen a pistol or not, you know that as long as it is a loaded type of pistol, it must be loaded first before it can be fired one after another, and the general pistol has a bumper, and the pistol can only be loaded and fired when the bumper is pulled down.
The pistol in Ling Yan's hand also has a bumper, but in order to make it convenient for Ling Yan to use and not waste time, he usually pulls the bumper down, saving it at a critical time, and it is too late to pull the bumper. So the pistol that Ling Yan is holding now is safe.
However, his pistol, in order to shoot bullets, must go through the step of loading. But Ling Yan didn't have time to complete this step now, that is to say, against Colonel Zuo's pistol, he actually couldn't shoot bullets at all!
In fact, just talking about loading, only one second is enough, Ling Yan has trained many times before, and he is already familiar with loading, so he is not worried that his loading will make a mistake, one second is enough.
But at this moment, Ling Yan didn't dare to try it easily, because he knew that the less than one second he had finally won made him take out his pistol, adding weight to his life, and if he gave Colonel Zuo another second, maybe his life would disappear immediately!
Ling Yan definitely didn't dare to underestimate Colonel Zuo, he believed that Colonel Zuo's reaction was absolutely first-class, and his judgment ability was also super strong, Ling Yan estimated that even if Colonel Zuo didn't understand the principle of the pistol and couldn't understand Ling Yan's loading action, Colonel Zuo could definitely judge that this gap was definitely a good time to attack, which should definitely not be a problem for Colonel Zuo, who was extremely sensitive to fighting!
Therefore, Ling Yan definitely didn't dare to use his life to joke and test Colonel Zuo's reaction speed, but at the same time, he didn't know what to do, if he only confronted him like this, his "paper tiger" would always be exposed.
However, Ling Yan couldn't think of it that much now, so it would be a while to be able to delay for a while!
Ling Yan saw Colonel Zuo looking at him coldly, his movements seemed to stop, Ling Yan felt that this was the time for him to regain the upper hand, so he slowly stood up, his eyes fixed on Colonel Zuo's eyes.
Colonel Zuo watched Ling Yan slowly stand up, but he didn't make any further movements, but instead made a move that surprised Ling Yan - he separated his hands, and the qi sword disappeared immediately.
However, even so, Ling Yan didn't dare to be careless, he knew that Zuo Xiao's speed of accumulating internal qi was absolutely first-class, if he wanted to form an air sword again, one second would be enough, so although Zuo Xiao had put away his qi sword now, it didn't mean that Zuo Xiao had given up attacking or resisting!
However, since Ling Yan had already stood up, he felt that he had regained a great disadvantage, at least now that he was standing, if he wanted to run, he could be a little faster.
At this time, Ling Yan still didn't dare to load, just pointed a gun at Colonel Zuo - if it was loaded now, it might be too late, but Ling Yan really didn't dare to try it at this time.
Ling Yan looked at Colonel Zuo and smiled reluctantly: "General Zuo...... Do you remember this? As he spoke, he shook the gun in his hand slightly.
Colonel Zuo looked at the pistol coldly, but suddenly took a step forward.
Ling Yan was startled, hurriedly took two steps back, and shouted, "General Zuo! If you take one more step, I'll shoot! ”
