Chapter 12 Desperate Snowfield
"Xiaoling, look, it's a fire!" Kou Zhong jumped up and shouted with his finger at the firelight in the distance.
After hearing this, Xu Ziling hurriedly jumped from the ground, rushed to the entrance of the alley to watch, and said happily: "It's true that the fire broke out. Xiao Zhong quickly put Sister Su on his back and let's go!"
The three of them were ready in a moment and rushed towards the city gate regardless of everything. They ignored the chaotic guards on the city wall. They rushed straight to the city gate, but when they saw the city gate slightly opened, they were overjoyed and rushed out of the city through the gap.
The guards on the city wall only found that someone had opened the city gate while the chaos was in the chaos. Seeing someone rushing out of the city, they hurriedly shouted: "Stop! Stop quickly, otherwise the bow and arrow will serve!"
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at each other and said in their hearts: "If you let us stop, we will stop? Will fools do what they do? Or is it more important to escape." The steps under their feet accelerated a few more steps. I heard someone in the city shouting: "Shoot the arrow!" Then hundreds of arrows flew towards the two of them.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were shocked. If Su Su were not there, they would have escaped while blocking the arrows, but now it is different.
Now is the juncture of life and death, and the two of them dare not neglect at all. They both moved the true energy in their bodies to the limit and instantly raised the spiritual consciousness to the highest level.
Not only are the touch of eyes, ears, nose, etc. more intelligent than before, but the most rare thing is that it also has a sense beyond the senses.
This is the mysterious thing about "The Eternal Life" and has surpassed the general martial arts. It not only reaches the self-sufficient treasure house in the human body mentioned by "Master Yijian" Fu Cailin. It also reaches the state of "harmony between man and nature" that martial artists pursue throughout their lives.
Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong are both rare talented people from ancient times to the present. By chance, they have practiced the "Eternal Life Skill" that has long been regarded as a deception by the so-called "knowers", breaking through the limits of general excellent martial arts. Only Ning Daoqi and Bi Xuan can understand the realm of "true nature".
At this moment, the two suddenly felt that the whole world seemed to have disappeared from their side, and they could not see the road ahead. The surroundings suddenly became extremely quiet, and they heard their heartbeat and breathing that reached the limit, and the trees around them became even more blurred, but they felt an unprecedented sense of clarity, and they saw the trees passing by themselves like light and shadows.
Then something even more wonderful happened. The two of them felt that the meridians in their bodies were trembling, and the true energy was moving rapidly inside, and they even rotated and shuttled like a spiral. The power suddenly increased to a higher level. The hairs on their bodies stood up, and a natural force was transmitted into their bodies along the pores.
Then the scenery in front of him suddenly disappeared and turned dark. When the two of them were trembling in their hearts, strange things suddenly appeared. They could clearly feel the force and direction of each arrow flying behind them, and they could clearly know the order of the arrow shooting to themselves. A picture appeared in front of the dark eyes, and two young men were flying on the snow, one of them was carrying a woman on his back.
The two immediately recognized that the two boys were him, and the woman was Su Su who was lying on Kou Zhong's back. The scenery around him was exactly the same as in reality. The inexplicable feeling led him to dodge left and right, and the bow and arrow roared past him.
It seems very slow to say, but in fact it is just a brief moment for the two of them.
The soldiers on the city wall opened their mouths in shock, staring blankly at the two people in front of them moving left and right on the snow, and without looking back, traveling through the gaps between hundreds of bows and arrows at an incredible angle, as if they opened their eyes on the back of their heads, and they could dodge each arrow very lightly. After a while, they flashed into the dense forest and disappeared.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling ran wildly in the forest on the snow for a while. Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, they found a hidden place to rest.
Kou Zhong seemed to have forgotten that he was in danger, so he hugged Xu Ziling's shoulder excitedly and said, "Xiaoling, the feeling just now is really amazing. Haha, we are so powerful now. Even the spiritual sense of the three masters is just like this."
Xu Ziling gave Kou Zhong a blank look, but his face was also filled with excitement: "Not as powerful as you said. The three masters rely on their own skills, and we only rely on the skills of "The Eternal Life Skills". This Taoist masterpiece is really a good treasure. It is so powerful. I wonder what wonderful things will happen to us as our skills grow."
"Haha" Kou Zhong smiled and said, "I think the elder brother is still very powerful. If we didn't have the elder brother's 'use of fighting to support the war', how could we practice "The Eternal Life Skill" to such an extent?"
Xu Ziling nodded and said, "Xiao Zhong is right. Brother seems to know everything. Even the practice method of "The Eternal Life Skill" is clear. By the way, how did the elder brother know that someone would set fire tonight? And he also knew that when the fire broke out, the city gate was open, so someone must have opened it secretly and deliberately let us out of the city."
Su Su saw that the two of them were getting more and more excited, and she forgot her sister aside and said angrily: "Xiao Zhong, Xiao Ling, you two know your elder brother, have you forgotten me, sister?"
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling woke up, scratched their heads embarrassedly, looked at Su Su with red face, not knowing what to say.
Su Su laughed out loud and said, "Haha, why did I blame you two for this?"
Xu Ziling was about to say something, but suddenly saw that Kou Zhong's face was suspicious, so he asked, "Xiao Zhong, but I found something wrong, why did he look suspicious?"
Kou Zhongyi said, "It's really strange."
Su Su asked, "What's strange?"
Kou Zhong said: "Why don't you see anyone coming to track us?"
Su Su said: "Didn't you just say that under such heavy snow, Zheng Zong's psychic bird will become a dumb bird?"
Xu Ziling said: "If Zheng Zong is at a loss when it snows, he doesn't have to come out and hang out. So he might have another spirit beast to take responsibility for tracking. Now he is just waiting for us to rest and then capture us in one go."
Su Su said in shock: "What should I do?"
Kou Zhong whispered: "First of all, I'll find the animals that tracked us to eat. Hey! Are you brave? "
Su Su smiled bitterly and said, "You should know the most. Say it! You can do whatever you want your sister to do." After Kou Zhong whispered to Su Su, Su Su got up and moved towards the depths of the forest.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling both pressed their ears to the cold snow and listened with their skills.
Susu's foot sound immediately came into his ears without any leakage, but there were no other abnormal sounds.
"Ah!" Su Su's cry suddenly came, scaring him so much that he rushed over. It turned out that Su Su was unable to see anything and tripped a bunch of small trees to the ground.
Kou Zhong helped Su Su up and whispered in a low voice: "It's Zheng Zong who came in person. This person is known as "Flying Yu", and his light skills are of great excellence."
Su Su said: "What should I do?"
At this time, Xu Ziling also listened for a while and stood up and said, "In addition to Zheng Zong, there should be about thirty people, and they are all very skilled. When Sister Su was tripped, I heard their steps move, and it was obvious that there were also people among them who were skilled in listening.
It seems that they have been ambushing here for a long time, so it can be determined that they are not from the Wagang Army, because Xu Shiji doesn’t have so much time to arrange it. I just don’t know what their purpose is?"
Kou Zhong said without any grief: "What do you care about so much? Zheng Zong has arrived in person. It is important for us to escape first. If those teams want to be unfavorable to us, we will have been captured long ago and will be free here."
After saying that, Kou Zhongfu carried Susu on his back, rushed to the depths of the dense forest with him, and shouted: "Let's compete with them who is more energetic."
You should know that in this dense forest that stretches for hundreds of miles, even if there is a strong horse, it cannot be used to transport it.
When it comes to competing for foot strength, there are many people in the world who can catch up with them at a short distance, but unless they are Du Fuwei's level, who can keep going without losing as much as their inner breath from "The Eternal Life"?
After saying this, the two of them stopped talking, and turned from external breathing to internal breathing, focusing their energy on running away, and quickly penetrated left and right in the dense forest like a meteor, running high and low, only knowing that they could run so far.
Susu, who was lying on Kou Zhong's back, felt a sense of safety and warmth. It was just two people who met by chance, and suddenly became close brothers who were stronger than blood than him.
They put her first in everything. No matter how bad the situation is, they will never hesitate and will never retreat. Now they share weal and woe. The touch in her heart can be imagined. They ran from night to dawn before they walked out of the dense forest. At this time, the rain and snow stopped, the sky and the earth were pure white, and the snow shone.
On this white and quiet field, the three of them felt like they were not sure where to go.
Although the internal breath of the two was still strong, the four legs caused by flesh and blood were extremely tired. They took the opportunity to rest on a small hill covered with towering spruces. Kou Zhong laughed and said, "Finally escape!" Su Su said, "Who were those people last night?"
Kou Zhong replied: "I don't know yet, but it shouldn't be our enemy, otherwise we wouldn't have escaped at such a great opportunity."
At this time, Xu Ziling said: "Xiao Zhong said it well, but there should be another possibility."
"There is another possibility?" Kou Zhong said puzzledly: "What is the other possibility?"
Xu Ziling continued: "Xiaozhong, do you still remember how my elder brother told us at that time?"
Kou Zhong pondered for a moment, "Brother said that we would rush to the north gate regardless of everything when we saw the fire in the city. Oh, did you say that the group of people might have been arranged by Brother in advance in the forest."
Xu Ziling smiled and said, "Yes, you think the defense of the North Gate among the four city gates in Xingyang is the most powerful. If the eldest brother can open the North Gate without anyone noticing, he will naturally be able to easily open the other three gates. But the eldest brother just let us rush towards the North Gate, and we will know that he should have made proper arrangements.
Also, when Sister Su fell, their steps were a little confused, and they seemed to be very concerned about us, otherwise their skills would not have exposed their hiding place for this.”
Kou Zhong praised: "Haha, it's still your boy's head."
Xu Ziling gave him a blank look and said, "Actually, your head is not worse than mine at all. It's just that your mind is full of how to cultivate your own power and fight for the world, and you are unwilling to consider these details."
What Xu Ziling said is very reasonable. After practicing the skills in "The Eternal Life", his mind focused on the practice of martial arts. It was not for fame or profit, but for a personal pursuit, and he had to constantly break through his previous self.
Every night when he lay in bed, he entered the charming world where he concentrated his mind and practiced his energy.
Just the practice of martial arts has brought him the greatest satisfaction, and everything is self-sufficient, without asking for it.
But Kou Zhong's ambitions were obviously much greater than his, which made him feel that his differences with Kou Zhong were growing. Of course, they were still their best brothers and friends in terms of emotions.
After hearing this, Kou Zhong began to ponder. Su Su saw that the two of them seemed to have encountered some problems. Although she was nervous, she didn't say anything, but just looked at them quietly. If there was a crack between their brothers, she would do her best to help them, but that was external force after all, and could not solve the fundamental problem. The best way was to let them think clearly about the doubts in their hearts and eliminate the barrier.
In fact, Su Su was too concerned. She underestimated the brotherhood between Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. There is no power in this world that can separate these two good brothers.
After a while, Kou Zhong looked at Xu Ziling solemnly and said, "Xiaoling, don't blame me for being ambitious and wanting to be the emperor. In fact, I just can't stand the arrogance of those famous families and noble families, treating men in the world like a waste, so I must have done a shocking career. As for whether to do it or not, I don't care much. 'Why do you want the princes, princes, generals, and ministers? Why do you make the playboys from rich families look down on others, and we poor families cannot stand out?"
Xu Ziling was stunned when he said such powerful words from Kou Zhong. However, the good situation was not long. Kou Zhong regained his true nature as a "city rogue" and hugged Xu Ziling's shoulder and said, "I'm talking, 'Two brothers in the world' who will you help me? I know that you will stand on my side no matter what."
Xu Ziling glared at him helplessly and said, "Oh, when I meet a 'rogue' brother like you, I can't help you?"
Su Su looked at her two younger brothers happily, and was moved by their brothers and feet.
Kou Zhong smiled and said, "I knew Xiaoling would not leave me, my good brother, alone. By the way, where do you think we will go next? Why not go to Dongdu? With our luck in Yangzhou Shuanglong, you might be able to win the lottery."
Su Su lowered her head and said firmly: "Go back to Yangzhou!" Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling exchanged glances and whispered to Su Su: "We are going to Dongdu, the purpose is to meet Heshibi's luck. Hey! No, I must be looking for Brother Li."
Su Su shook her head and said resolutely: "If you want to go, go by yourself!" Xu Ziling supported Su Su and said: "Of course we will listen to Sister Su."
Xiang Kou Zhong blamed: "What's more important than harming the cultural bones of the fallen weather. There are many dreams in the night and delaying the opportunity. Can you afford it?"
Kou Zhong surrendered and said, "It's me wrong! Hey! In which direction is Yangzhou?"
Xu Ziling said in surprise: "Didn't you calculate the direction early before leaving? How could you be so stupid? You are still proficient in mountains and geography."
Su Su said: "Don't quarrel! Walk from here to the northeast and you will arrive at Tongji Canal sooner or later. At that time, you can just take a boat south and pass Junyi, Chenliu, Yongqiu, Xiangyi, Songcheng, Yongcheng, Xiaqiu, and you can reach Yutai. Then you can go east to enter Jiangou and go south to Jiangdu. How simple."
Kou Zhong blushed and said, "It turns out that the most powerful ones are Sister Su." Su Su laughed and said, "Sister is not amazing, but she was traveling south with the lady back then."
Xu Ziling said, "Why did Sister Su suddenly seem to be full of joy?"
Su Suxia said with her cheeks: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm very happy."
Both of them were puzzled.
Kou Zhong stood up and said, "We have to find a township to treat the incurable disease of hunger first, which is the best strategy."
Xu Ziling helped Su Su up and said happily: "I'll let me be Su Su's mount this time."
Kou Zhong protested: "You know how to come and compete with me for enjoyment."
Su Su's pretty face flushed and said, "It turns out that both brothers are bad guys."
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling laughed so hard that they squeezed and pushed each other. They were extremely proud and full of sincere feelings.
