Chapter 2886 Zhao Gongming and Zhao Bing’s pursuit, they escaped and were poisoned by arrows
Chapter 2882: Chasing by Zhao Gongming and Zhao Bing, they escaped and were poisoned by arrows
Xia Houyuan's sudden death in battle exceeded everyone's expectations.
Yin Shou, Cao Kerang and other generals had no time to support them, and Shen Gongbao also looked stunned.
Shen Gongbao had done all the tricks, but he never imagined that Kong Xuan, who clearly didn't know the Seven-Star Flying Bear Formation, could calculate the exit position of the Seven-Star Flying Bear Formation through the Seven-Star Formation and the Tiangang Beidou Formation.
I thought that Kong Xuan was a foolhardy man. After all, it is impossible for a smart person to do such a thing as entering Cao's camp alone to assassinate him. However, he did not expect that Kong Xuan would pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger. Not only was he not a reckless man, but he was also a fool. A scholar with both civil and military skills, he even had very good attainments in formations, which caused Shen Gongbao to fall hard.
After all, the Seven-Star Flying Bear Formation is a battle formation. Although it has the effect of trapping people, it is not its main function after all. And Shen Gongbao underestimated Kong Xuan, so that Kong Xuan easily broke out of the formation, and by the way, he also harvested Xia Houyuan. The head of the **** of war.
“Wonderful talent.”
Seeing Xia Houyuan die tragically under Kong Xuan's knife, Cao Cao's eyes were about to burst, but he had no choice but to do anything. He fainted in excitement.
Shen Gongbao's expression was extremely ugly. He even used the Seven-Star Flying Bear Formation as a trump card, but not only was it of no use to Kong Xuan, but it even defeated Xia Houyuan.
When he thought of the big words he had said before, even Shen Gongbao couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and it made him feel like his face had been swollen.
After killing Xia Houyuan, although Kong Xuan could leave at any time, he did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he looked at Yin Shou and Cao Kerang with a warning look, as if to say if you dare to entangle Xia Houyuan again, Xia Houyuan will be your fate. .
Kong Xuan's current condition is not good, and he is in the hinterland of Wei State, and his injuries may worsen at any time. If there is a Grand Master among the reinforcements of the Demon Sect called by Shen Gongbao, he may not be able to easily escape Wei State. It's easy, so you might as well frighten Yin Shou and others first so that they don't dare to chase after him.
The death of Xia Houyuan touched the hearts of the four people in Yin and Shou. In grief, they were so shocked by Kong Xuan's eyes that they actually stood there and did not dare to pursue him.
It wasn't until Kong Xuan's back was about to disappear that General Yin Shou finally realized that he was frightened by Kong Xuan and subconsciously wanted to chase him out. After all, Kong Xuan must have reached his limit, but he was driven over. Shen Gongbao was stopped.
“Stop chasing me.”
After hearing what Shen Gongbao said, the four Yin and Shou looked at each other in confusion, while Shen Gongbao explained: "We underestimated Kong Xuan's strength before. With one against five, we were able to break out of the encirclement and kill him." From the point of view of killing General Xiahou, even if he is really forced to burn out his inner strength, I am afraid that in the end it will just end up with both jade and stone.
Kong Xuan, who has now escaped from the formation, is like a fish entering the sea. No matter how difficult it is to restrain him, even if you can catch up, you may not be able to keep him, and you may catch yourself. "
When Cao Ning heard this, he said unwillingly: "Kong Xuan infiltrated our army this time and not only killed Military Advisor Fan, but also Uncle Miaocai. Can't we just let him go?"
“Of course we can’t just let him go, but our strength alone is no longer enough to deal with Kong Xuan, we must need other helpers.
Don't worry, Pindao has asked the Demon Sect for help. The reinforcements will arrive in two hours at most. It won't be too late to chase Kong Xuan by then. The generals can also take this opportunity to adjust their breath and recover. "
Hearing Shen Gongbao's words, the expressions of Yin Shou and others softened a lot, and they immediately crossed their legs and adjusted their breath to recover.
Two hours later, the reinforcements Shen Gongbao said arrived at Cao Ying, but the ones who arrived were not from the Demon Sect, but from the Zhao Kingdom, and they were also two great masters, Zhao Gongming and Zhao Bing.
Zhao Gongming is a disciple of Shangqing Taoist and Sanxiao's sworn brother. He possesses the peak strength of the late grand master and is only half a step away from the peak of the grand master.
As for Zhao Bing, historically he was the last emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty. After the Battle of Yashan, he was carried by Lu Xiufu and jumped into the sea on his back. He died at the age of only eight.
Since Zhao Bing in this life has a great master level, he naturally cannot be the Zhao Bing in history. He is actually Zhao Bing from the Hong Kong comic "Legend of the Emperor 6 Hongwu Emperor".
The level of martial arts in the Hong Kong comic world of the "Legend of the Emperor" series is still very high, and Zhao Bing is the number one master in the sixth "Hongwu Emperor". Wen Tianxiang inherited the spirit and body of forty-nine children with Taoism. After a hundred years of cultivation in the Tai Chi Xuan Coffin, he became the emperor's martial arts. However, he was already invincible in the world with just the two unique skills of the Innate Qiankun Kung Fu and the Tathagata Divine Palm.
Zhao Bing is also one of the hidden figures of Bai Zhao. After he was born, he was system-implanted into the Zhao family where Zhao Kuangyin lived. Like Zhao Gongming, he is the guardian of the Zhao family and possesses the peak strength of a grand master in the early stage.
Cao Wei only had one great master, Cao Qiudao, while Zhao Song had two great masters, Zhao Gongming and Zhao Bing. Of course, there was only one great master named Zhao Gongming, while Zhao Bing's existence was hidden and used as a trump card.
The reason why Zhao Gongming and Zhao Bing both appeared in Mount Tai was naturally because the Song Dynasty also attached great importance to this grand gathering of the Demon Sect Rebels, so they sent the two of them to support Shen Gongbao, but they did not expect that they had not had time to show off their power to Zhao Song and frighten the demons. , he was first summoned by Shen Gongbao to deal with Kong Xuan.
As soon as Zhao Gongming and Zhao Bing arrived, Shen Gongbao naturally became more confident. He immediately promised Cao Cao who woke up that he would bring back Kong Xuan's head, and then brought the two great masters, as well as Yin Shou and Tantai Yu, to form a five-person group. The pursuit team pursued Kong Xuan at full speed in the direction where Kong Xuan escaped.
At the same time, after Kong Xuan escaped from Cao's camp for twenty miles, he retrieved the snow dragon pony that was staying at the same place, and then rode on horseback. However, it didn't take long for his injuries to relapse.
“Pfft…”
Hong Xuan couldn't hold it back and spit out a mouthful of blood, and had to stop to stabilize the injury.
After adjusting his breath, Kong Xuan calmly wiped the blood stains from the corner of his mouth and said to himself: "This is a big loss. I didn't kill Cao Cao and he was so seriously injured. But killing Fan Li and Xia Houyuan is a great achievement. At least there is an explanation to Emperor Qin.”
Kong Xuan knew that even if he did nothing, Ying Hao would still help him collect skills, but he couldn't take Ying Hao's things for free. That was not his character, so he broke into Cao's camp alone this time. He didn't expect his luck to be so bad. Not only did he miss twice, he actually killed the wrong person.
Another point is that Kong Xuan never expected that Cao Jun, who was about to be completely crippled by the Qin army, had so many powerful generals dead, but still had so many masters that he almost couldn't resist it. If he hadn't broken through before the battle this time, he would have had to burn his internal strength to break through, but the price would be even greater.
“Among the three countries in the Central Plains, Cao Wei is the weakest country on the surface, but in fact Cao Wei is the strongest country.”
Hong Xuan couldn't help but sigh, he even had a hunch that Cao Wei was Qin's most difficult opponent. As long as Cao Wei was destroyed, the Ming and Song Dynasties would not be able to stop the Qin army at all.
"I killed Fan Li and Xia Houyuan. Cao Cao will definitely hate me to the core and will definitely send people to chase me. This place is still within the territory of Mount Tai. It will not be difficult for Cao Cao to summon everyone from the Demon Sect to chase me. It would be terrible if there is a great master among the pursuers. "
With this thought, Kong Xuan immediately took out a pen and paper from his horse as a precaution, quickly wrote a letter asking for help, and then released the only carrier pigeon he carried.
After sending a letter asking for help, Kong Xuan continued to flee westward on the snow dragon pony. About an hour and a half after he left, Shen Gongbao and the others arrived at his location and discovered the blood stains left by Kong Xuan.
After Shen Gongbao checked Kong Xuan's blood, he said excitedly: "Judging from the amount of blood vomited, Kong Xuan could no longer suppress the injury, so he had to stop and heal here. Judging from the extent of the blood drying up, From the looks of it, he shouldn't have been gone for more than two hours.
Kong Xuan was injured and could not travel the whole way, so he could only ride on horseback. According to the distance, he should have entered Dongping County by now. If we pursue at full speed now, we should be able to catch up with him in Shanyang County. "
As soon as this statement came out, everyone had no objections and followed Shen Gongbao to continue hunting down Kong Xuan.
Although Shen Gongbao miscalculated before, his calculation was still very accurate this time. After a full-speed pursuit, a group of five people did catch up with Kong Xuan in Gaoping County, Shanyang County.
When Kong Xuan saw that his pursuers were coming, and there were two great masters among them, he abandoned his horse and ran for his life at full speed, regardless of his injuries.
Although Snow Dragon is a horse king-level horse, it cannot be faster than Grandmaster in terms of short-distance acceleration. If Kong Xuan does not give up his horse, he will definitely be overtaken.
As Ying Hao's mount, the Snow Dragon Colt is still very conspicuous, but at this time, the five Shen Gongbao people only have Kong Xuan in their eyes, and they will not care about a mere horse.
Hong Xuan was not only strong in defense, he was also extremely fast. Even Zhao Gongming, a master in the later stage of Grand Master, could not catch up with Kong Xuan who was injured in a short period of time.
Each great master has his or her own strengths, and not all great masters can be like Li Cunxiao, Xiang Yu, and Kong Xuan without any shortcomings.
Chao Gongming in the later stage of Grand Master cannot catch up with Kong Xuan in the early stage. This only shows that Zhao Gongming is short of speed, not that he is really slow.
"Kong Xuan, you can't escape, your injuries have gotten worse..."
After chasing after him, he saw Kong Xuan running faster and faster, and even Yin Shou and Tan Taiyu fell behind. This made Shen Gongbao a little anxious. While trying to distract Kong Xuan with words, he quietly shot a poisonous arrow. He carried it to the palm of his hand and winked at Zhao Gongming and Zhao Bing on the side.
Subsequently, Zhao Gongming and Zhao Bing chased and shot arrows at Kong Xuan from behind, forcing Kong Xuan to activate the five-color canopy defense.
Although the dual defenses of the Gangqi Armor and the Five-Colored Canopy were strong, they could not withstand the continuous bombardment of the two Grand Masters, and were eventually shattered after withstanding many heavy blows.
"good chance."
Seeing this, Shen Gongbao used his arm as a bow and Qi as a string. He shook his hand and saw the poisonous arrow in his hand shot out, hitting Kong Xuan's back shoulder and piercing deeply into the bone.
Hunted by an arrow in his back shoulder, Kong Xuan didn't even blink, but when he realized that the poison on the arrow was rapidly eroding his internal organs, his expression changed drastically.
The wood-type Gang Qi in Kong Xuan's Five Elements Magic Art is extremely resistant to poison and can even be immune to many toxins, but it cannot stop the erosion of Shen Gongbao's poisonous arrows, which shows how powerful all his poisons are.
Although the toxin used by Shen Gongbao is strong, as long as Kong Xuan stops and uses his energy to remove the toxin, it won't take long for him to completely detoxify. After all, even Lu Yue couldn't poison Li Cunxiao to death, so how could Shen Gongbao poison Kong Xuan?
But when faced with the pursuit, Kong Xuan naturally could not stop to remove the poison, he could only continue to run for his life and let the poison eat away at him.
Shen Gongbao thought that Kong Xuan would slow down after being poisoned, but he didn't expect that Kong Xuan would run faster instead. Being completely helpless, he could only grit his teeth and follow closely, but he didn't want to chase him for half the time. An hour later, the people sent by the Qin army to meet Kong Xuan arrived, and the leader was Yun Xiao.
Hong Xuan’s luck could be bad this time, but he could be said to be good.
Bai Qi was worried that something might happen to Kong Xuan, so he sent Fu Youde to pick him up, but Kong Xuan chased him into Mount Tai alone, which naturally frightened Fu Youde.
Fu Youde did not dare to pursue Mount Tai, so he could only report it to Bai Qi. When Bai Qi found out, he immediately realized that something might happen, so he quickly dispatched three great masters to rescue Kong Xuan.
Originally, Bai Qi didn't know where Kong Xuan was, but the letter asking for help sent by Kong Xuan let Bai Qi know his location, so the three great masters headed by Yun Xiao were able to arrive in time.
Yun Xiao looked at Kong Xuan, who was full of black energy and panting, and knew that he was already poisoned, so he slapped his shoulder to suppress the poison, and at the same time, he pulled out the seven-star Longyuan sword from his waist and pointed it at Zhao opposite him. Gong Ming and the other three said coldly: "Brother, do you want to fight with my little sister here?"
