Kong Sheng was unconscious for three days, while the Xiu'er stayed guard for three days. Fortunately, the bolt had only taken a piece of his belly, and had injured his internal organs and bones. After the doctor gave him the Soup of Tranquil Spirit, and applied the medicine on him, he would be able to sleep peacefully for a few days.
However, the negative impact that followed was that Chen Chu's plan was completely put on hold. With Kong Sheng being injured, these two brothers couldn't even get out of the barn door, so how could they talk about charging into Wu Lian Mountain and going straight for Moqiu State? The anxious Qu Feizhi practically had to drink every day to keep himself alive, and even the normally calm Chen Chu started to sigh, staring at the rooftop, in a daze.
Just as the two of them were frowning in distress, the door to the barn opened again and a village woman walked in with a food box in her hand. The excitement on Qu Feizhi's face instantly disappeared as he lazily pointed towards the table and said, "Put that there." The village woman complied and placed the food box on the table, but she did not turn around to leave. Instead, she picked up a wooden broom from the ground and threw it towards Qu Feizhi.
Although Qu Feizhi did not see it, he had immersed himself in martial arts for many years, so these little problems were not a problem. Hearing the sound of wind behind his ears, he almost reflexively reached out to the side. When he held the wooden broom in his hand, he was stunned for a moment. He did not understand why such a thing flew over for no reason.
However, that village woman didn't even give him a chance to stare blankly. She held another broom in her hand and pounced over, mercilessly launching an attack. A broom was used by her, causing her to be filled with vigor. Her moves and moves were all aimed at Qu Feizhi's chest, abdomen, and vital parts of his face.
Qu Feizhi anxiously endured a few moves, after which he steadied his breathing and stabilized his body, he began to counterattack. After exchanging over ten rounds, he realized that this village woman was very skilled in martial arts, but she lacked the experience of facing an enemy head-on. Immediately, she stabilized her state of mind and began to turn from defense to offense, slowly gaining the upper hand with each move.
Seeing that her moves were beginning to be suppressed, the village woman coldly snorted and her hand movements followed suit. This change of hers had completely stunned Qu Feizhi. Because the village woman was a skill that Kong Sheng had relied on to become famous for her Peacock Ridge and spear skills.
After being whipped twice by the broom, Qu Feizhi quickly regained his senses and continued to fight with the village woman. Although the Peacock Ridge Spear Art was one of Kong Sheng's unique skills, it was not some kind of secret that was not passed down. According to legend, this was a set of Spear Arts that the people of Peacock Ridge comprehended based on the form of Divine Bird Phoenix. Almost every person of Peacock Ridge would use a few moves on it. However, learning how to practice was difficult, the Divine Bird Phoenix was stable and magnanimous, the spear was agile and elegant, the two were supported by the master, and according to the individual's understanding, their usage would be different. The proportion of the application would also be different, and the final result would also be completely different. The Peacock Ridge spear technique used by the village woman in front of him was steady and steady, without losing any of her agility. There was a hint of ruthlessness in her tone, as if she was already an extremely skilled spear technique.
Qu Feizhi was experienced in battle after all, so he stood up with the broom in his hand and rubbed his body fiercely, which was an inch longer than the person he was talking about. He did the opposite and took the risk of being an inch shorter, turning his entire body into a weapon, as if he wanted to fight to the death with this village woman.
The village woman obviously did not expect Qu Feizhi to use such a move. After got close to her and became flustered, the broom in her hand became a little disordered. Qu Feizhi's eyes lit up, the broom in his right hand flickered, and with his left hand, he punched the village woman's shoulder. Before he could even land half of his punch on her, he had already retracted his fist and kicked her waist. The speed of his feints was extremely fast. Although his fist only swayed, it had already caused the village woman's body to become crooked from dodging. She could no longer avoid this kick.
Seeing that Qu Feizhi's kick was just about to land on the village woman's waist, the village woman immediately let go of the broom in her hand. Clenching her fist, she smashed down at his calf, wanting to use her hand to fight against his leg. At the same time, Chen Chu also shouted, "Stop!"
Just as Chen Chu spat out the word "hand", the young maiden's palm was already less than three inches away from his leg. She fiercely changed her fist into a palm, and in a split-second, she changed her stance from punching to grabbing horizontally, grabbing onto Qu Feizhi's ankle.
When Qu Feizhi landed on the ground, his face was completely pale. As for the village woman, she took off her hood, revealing her charming face, and bowed towards Qu Feizhi: "Master Qu, I apologize for offending you."
The village woman was not a stranger, she was Lady Xiu’er.
Lady Xiu’er is too polite." I never thought that the girl would be so amazing with her hands, this power is Only now did he understand that Chen Chu's "leniency" shout was not towards him, but towards the Xiu'er.
Chen Chu rolled his eyes as he turned to look at Lady Xiu’er and asked, "I wonder what business does this lady have this time?"
Xiu'er's face became solemn, and said solemnly: "This humble one dares to ask the two generals, about your previous plan, do you dare to continue it?"
Qu Feizhi laughed bitterly: "Neither of us can leave this barn, what are we talking about? Besides, even if they were to leave, what would happen to the team? Do I have to go out and recruit him? Are they going to kidnap a bunch of bandits? "
On the other hand, Chen Chu did not directly answer her question. He stared at Xiu'er for a long time, and then slowly asked: "I wonder why Lady Xiu’er is asking this question, could it be that Miss has a way?"
"The Lord Kong nodded and replied," Lord Kong has not recovered from his injuries, he will not be able to gather any troops. This humble girl actually dares to do this for him. I wonder if the two generals would be willing to help? "
"How can I help you?" Chen Chu stared at Xiu'er with his good eyes.
Xiu'er replied, "I have heard you say before, this time you will only be sent light cavalry, as long as you can persuade your subordinates to follow you, this humble girl will have a way to bring you out of the city."
"How can we convince them?" Let them disobey the military order and flee with us? Before Qu Feizhi could finish his sentence, Chen Chu suddenly interrupted: "Lady Xiu’er, do you really have a way to bring us out?"
Xiu'er bit her lips: "That depends on what kind of price you guys are willing to pay."
Chen Chu laughed out loud. "Price? I, Chen Chu, have been locked up here for a few months. If this goes on, I won't be able to get out after I break out of the city. Of course, there is no use in going out at that time, I'm afraid that I will have to be buried here together with Phoenix City Pass. " After saying that, he stopped laughing and looked towards the Xiu'er, "If the lady really has a way to get me out of here, so what if Chen Chu gives his life to you?"
"General, you're being too serious." Xiu'er nodded slightly towards Chen Chu, then turned to look at him and asked: "What about you, General Qu?"
Qu Feizhi patted his chest. "Of course! "As long as you can let me kill the demon child, what price can't I pay ~ ~ ~ Ah ~ ~"
Just as Qu Feizhi said the first few words, Xiu'er had already moved towards the wall. When Qu Feizhi said the words "demon child", she had already raised his leg and kicked the wall of the barn. Using this rock to build a foundation and then smearing it with rice paste, it could be both waterproof and fireproof, and it could even withstand three to four rounds of attacks from stone thrower s. Just like that, she kicked open a ten foot wide hole. Qu Feizhi's eyes stared straight ahead. He had heard that this girl was strong, but he never thought that a person's strength could reach such a level. He even thought in his heart: "Is this a f * cking human?"
Finally, Chen Chu, who was still laughing loudly in the end, helped to close Qu Feizhi's chin, and then pulled him along as he ran towards the army camp.
Just before they entered the camp, Chen Chu asked, "Lady Xiu’er, how did you think of using such a ~ ~ hmm ~ simple method to get out of the barn?"
"General Chen wants to talk about violence, right?" Xiu'er lightly stroked her hair, which had fallen in front of her forehead, "My idea is very simple, from the very beginning, I didn't leave myself any way out." That barn is broken, even if you want to hide, there's nowhere to hide. "
Under the Lady Xiu’er's example, the recruitment process went extremely smoothly. Chen Chu naturally had nothing to say, as he stood in front of his own men, giving the order.
Maybe it was because he was stimulated by Xiu'er kicking the barn open, but the way he did it was even simpler and more crude. "Follow me, you are no longer nobles of the empire, you are no longer imperial soldiers. But he could recklessly kill the demon child, and build his career! If you throw away the wealth that your parents left behind for you, then you're a man!
With just these few sentences, all the hundred over Apprentice Knight s under Chen Chu's Red Camp withdrew from the empire within an incense's worth of time.
Qu Feizhi on the other hand, completely underestimated his own influence. Trembling, he stood at the entrance of the Apprentice Knight's living quarters, planning whether or not his Castellan Mansion would be twisted away after entering. Two patrolling Apprentice Knight s directly carried him into the camp. At that time, the camp was stirred, and a group of Apprentice Knight welcomed Qu Feizhi's arrival as if he was their idol.
Honestly speaking, Qu Feizhi was an idol-like existence within the Phoenix City Pass. The story of him sneaking into Moqiu Army Camp to set fire to the sect and then leaving unscathed had already been modified into a novel, poem, essay, movie, television, cartoon, cartoon, rap, crosstalk, speed board, evaluation book, and many other literary and artistic forms. It was spread out in private and caused a huge reaction amongst the young Apprentice Knight. Although Kong Sheng and Ling Zilu had ordered everyone to not allow this kind of blatant violation of the military rules to happen again, to the young rebellious Apprentice Knight, this was what they called a hero, this was what they called a man, this was what a man was! ( Kong Sheng: Only two hundred and fifty!
When Qu Feizhi was first locked up in there, this group of brats would intentionally take a detour and walk in a straight line to pay their respects. Now that Qu Feizhi was actually alive in front of his eyes, that emotion couldn't even be described with words.
Qu Feizhi himself was confused. He had stayed in the barn for only a few months, how did he become a famous person just after coming out? He tremblingly said, "Brothers, I escaped by myself …"
"Cool!"
"Cool!"
"It should have been like this a long time ago!"
Cheers rose and fell.
Qu Feizhi swallowed his saliva. "About that, I came here this time to pick a few Apprentice Knight s to follow me on a secret mission."
"I'll go!"
"I'll go too!"
"Idol!" Please take me with you! "
"Swear his life to Lord Qu!"
Qu Feizhi clenched his teeth, and said his last sentence: "This operation is extremely risky, there is a high chance of death. Furthermore, even if they were to return alive, they would probably end up as criminals in the Empire. "
The crowd finally quietened down, and a moment later, a white-faced Apprentice Knight spoke with a sorrowful expression, "With the life and death of the nation at stake, how can we avoid disaster! Lord Qu, if I don't enter hell, who will?! "
Boom ~ ~ ~ Applause, whistles, applause, and cheers rang out again. So it turned out that they were not shocked by Qu Feizhi's words at all, but had simply fallen silent because they could not find a single suitable word to say.
Qu Feizhi secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said in his heart: Could it be that I've seen a ghost?
Just like this, before the guards of the barn and Ling Zilu had led the others to surround them, Xiu'er, Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi had already brought over three hundred light riders out of the Phoenix City Pass. The reason why one of them could be so fast was because the two of them had been able to gather a group of Knights in such a short period of time. She used a straight line to cut through more than half of the Phoenix City Pass. All the walls and buildings that were blocking this line had disappeared, including the city walls.
Looking at the large gap in the city wall less than three hundred meters away from the southern gate of the Phoenix City Pass, Shi Keren sighed helplessly, "Are they that anxious? What if he cheated the City Gate Officer? "What a waste!"
Zhao Handong laughed bitterly: "old commander, how do we deal with this?"
Before Shi Keren could reply, one of the staff officers by the side shuddered. "Reporting to Master Zhao, we follow the orders given by the Imperial Military Discipline, those who leave the battlefield without permission in time of war are deemed as deserters! If it is serious, it can be considered a traitor, and its nine generations will be exterminated! "
Shi Keren turned his head to look at the young staff officer and asked: "Do you know where they went?"
The staff officer hurriedly replied, "Sir, I do not know."
Shi Keren glared at him fiercely. "You don't even know what they're going to do? This old man sent them out for a secret mission! If he were to scold them now, he would be scolding them for being a spendthrift, but he would not be scolding them for running away! Do you understand? "
The staff officer anxiously tried to explain, "Yes, I'm sorry, sir. "This official has never heard you mention this in the meeting ~ ~"
"Bastard!" Shi Keren became even more furious: "This old man is the highest-ranking officer in the north of the empire Battlefield, don't tell me I have to report everything to you? Which school graduated? Who's your officer? "What's your position now?"
The staff officer's face was covered in sweat. She stood there trembling, not daring to make a sound.
Shi Keren waved his hand at Zhao Handong: "Master Zhao."
Zhao Handong hurriedly stepped forward. "old commander."
Shi Keren pointed to the staff officer. "Discipline, discipline." With that, he turned and left.
Zhao Handong sized up the little adviser who was trembling from head to toe, and laughed: "Forget it, someone who does not know is not to be blamed. You're young and insensible, so it's not your fault. "
The staff officer's voice was close to tears as she said, "Thank you, thank you, Master Zhao."
Zhao Handong waved his hand towards the guards and said, "Find his direct subordinates and beat him with thirty military sticks."
Hearing the sounds of begging coming from behind him, Shi Keren stopped in his tracks, raised his head, and looked towards the sky in the east, silently thinking to himself, "This old man can only do this, I hope your choice is correct."
After the Xiu'er and her group left the Phoenix City Pass, they followed the Wulian Mountain Range and ran east for three days. They were so tired that they felt tired, and it was only then that they finally arrived at Wu Lian County. After resting for a day, they entered the mountain from Wu Lian County and headed straight for the Wulian Border Army encampment. This place was one of the few gentle slopes in the Wulian Mountain Range. It was a place where one could enter easily if the mountain was light. There was also water nearby.
Wulian Border Army was a part of the set up of Border Army, known as the empire's strongest individual military capability. Although Phoenix City Border Army and the words "the strongest" were not willing to accept it, in his heart, he still felt sincere admiration. Wulian Border Army were stationed inside the Wulian Mountain Range, and fought against Demonic Beast all year round. Soldiers could not say that they all possess unique skills, but they were definitely experienced in facing off against enemies. The others watched as the terrified Demonic Beast arrived in front of them. It could catch wolves on its own, and kill tigers on its own. The men who lived in the mountains fought with the Demonic Beast everyday, and over time, their bodies were tainted with the Demonic Beast's habit, and they also developed the unruly nature of Wulian Border Army. Any officer would have a headache because of this troop.
According to the Empire's customs, the Wulian Border Army was also protected by the Red Camp, but the Red Camp here had quickly turned into the senior officer's training camp. Most of the senior officer s in the Red Camp have a record of serving here, at least half a year or at most two years. Some people truly wanted to hone their combat skills, but there were also others who wanted to earn the qualifications to do so. There was an unwritten rule in Fire Phoenix Army: one wanted to be a senior officer, but one did not have the qualifications to be a guard in the Wulian Border Army. And the Imperial Military Academy students who were born in Baidu would sometimes choose to live here as well, for no other reason other than to pave a path for their own future.
As a result of this, the fighting strength of Red Camp was actually not equal, and so Wulian Border Army had quite a bit of opinion towards them. Since the other Red Camp were all for help, then the here should just become a source of confusion. Regardless of whether or not he was a soldier or an official, he had come to gain some qualifications. Sometimes, he had already been moved away before they had even acknowledged him. In the Wulian Border Army, other than a few officers, most of the officers and soldiers were scolded until they could not even lift their heads …
But the reason why Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi came here was to convince them to help him, to help him with something that he absolutely couldn't win over.
