Chapter 310 The Lonely Warrior

"What did you say?"

Lu Zhishen's eyes were wide open with anger. He dropped his Zen stick, leaned over and grabbed Puchashi's slave, and lifted him up halfway like a chicken, frightening him so much that he swallowed his saliva.

"The marshal's troops surrounded Mount Wutai, specifically targeting Elder Zhizhen. If you kill me, the elder may not survive."

"Go to the mother and grab the bird!"

Seeing Lu Zhishen raising and retracting his fist, Liu Tang quickly dismounted and stepped forward, trying to ask: "Master, can't you do it? I am willing to do it for you!"

"Go! Go! Go."

Lu Zhishen raised his hand to block it, and said seriously: "I will leave it to Brother Yang to decide."

"Hey, Master, don't be angry. I'm just enthusiastic."

Liu Tang scratched his head and smiled, then picked up his sword, mounted his horse and left.

Lu Zhishen was worried about Zhizhen and had lost interest in continuing the fight. He found a rope to tie up Pucha Shi's slave and took the captive to look for Yang Chang.

At this time, the Liao army camp was flashing drop prompts everywhere. Yang Chang had long been immersed in a sea of ​​corpses and blood, like a boss in the game who paid for training, and started the happiest time of picking up corpses.

Qiu Qiongying was very murderous. She had already started chasing and killing the Liao people and disappeared in the camp.

When Yang Chang started picking up the corpse, Hu Sanniang also stopped and resumed her guarding. She found that she did not miss the fighting, but missed the time with her man.

Wenrou watched Yang Chang squat down and stand up, as if he had returned to the old days in Liangshan, and she had accompanied him all the way.

The world has changed a lot, but he has not changed.

very nice.

Following the man to pick up the corpse, Hu Sanniang suddenly saw Yang Chang stood up excitedly, and hurried forward to ask with concern: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

"What? Hehe."

Yang Chang smiled slyly and said, "My lady, prepare to be my disciple."

"What the official meant."

Hu Sanniang wanted to say something but stopped herself.

Yang Chang taught others new magical powers and did not hide them from a few close people. Qiu Qiongying's riding skills were enhanced. Hu Sanniang knew that men could only improve their riding skills and spear and stick skills, but she was used to using two swords and had also summed up her personal experience, so she did not plan to change to learning spear and stick.

"I will go back to the city and teach you swordsmanship. Remember to call me Master when the time comes."

"Not doing the right thing"

Even though they were an old couple, Hu Sanniang blushed with shame. She had almost no power to resist Yang Chang's "tease".

The reason why Yang Chang was so excited was that he had just triggered the Hunter Grandmaster Talent [Mountain Peeling], and unexpectedly got [Sword Skill Talisman]. Before, he only got [Spear and Stick Skill Talisman]. The new drop meant that the sword skill had been upgraded to the maximum level.

When combat skills are upgraded to the maximum level, awakening talents is simpler than survival skills. To reach the sword level, you only need to use sword weapons and find a few enemies to use them on them to awaken them.

The [Tiger Roar and Dragon Roar] that is awakened by the Spear and Stick Transformation realm passively imposes negative effects on enemies within the range. Combined with the [Broken Army] aura that enhances the soldiers' will, the status of both enemy and friendly soldiers can be reduced.

The awakening skills are random, and Yang Chang is already looking forward to it. It feels like waiting to open a blind box, and it is a completely unknown blind box.

Of course, although this guy was happy, he did not stop picking up corpses. There were so many corpses in the camp that he had no time to check the panel.

It is Yang's usual style to wait until everything is settled before slowly 'taking inventory and settling accounts'.

Less than half an hour after the battle started, Yang Chang began picking up corpses until the smoke cleared. Finally, in the northeast corner of the camp, he was attacked by three Liao soldiers who were pretending to be dead.

Hu Sanniang was far away and didn't notice them, but Yang had a strong sense of perception and had long sensed the aura of the three people. He took advantage of his skills and deliberately turned his back.

"kill him!"

"Die!"

"Kill you!"

The three Liao soldiers screamed and shouted, like the three treasures in the bushes of the Hero Canyon, suddenly jumping out from the pile of dead bodies, startling Hu Sanniang so much that she shouted in panic: "Sir, be careful!"

"Just you?"

Yang Chang flipped to the side, drew out the Panlong Tunri sword and made a sword flower.

Show yourself, little darling!

"Is he so fast?"

"Don't be afraid, we have more people."

"Look at the knife"

The three Liao soldiers jumped forward and pounced on Yang Chang again.

As Yang Changze moved to the left, he swung his sword and slashed out a cold crescent-shaped light at the approaching person.

This slash had an incredible effect, and Hu Sanniang, who was running over, was stunned.

In addition to the man who was cut into two by Yang Chang's sword, the other two companions actually spurted blood and fell to the ground at the same time. Flashes of light appeared as they picked up their corpses, as if the sword had cut out sword energy, which caused them to be accidentally injured and killed by the sword energy.

When Yang Chang raised his sword and thought, a prompt immediately flashed in his sea of ​​consciousness.

[Sword Transformation Immediate Talent, 'Lone Brave Man' has been triggered and awakened]

What the hell, what kind of talent is this?
"Sir, what new magical power do you have? They don't feel like they have touched it."

"Uh..." Yang Chang was stunned for a moment and said a white lie: "The only martial arts in the world that cannot be defeated is speed. My husband was too fast just now, and my wife didn't see it clearly."

"Is it?"

"Thank you for keeping an eye on me, ma'am. I want to take a rest for a while."

"Are you tired, sir?"

Hu Sanniang looked at him with concern and urged Yang Chang, "Leave this to me. Sir, go and have a rest."

"it is good."

Yang Chang deliberately sat cross-legged. With his cultivation level, why would he need to rest? He just used this as an excuse to check the attribute panel, especially to confirm the special effects of [Lone Hero].

Close your eyes and touch the sea of ​​consciousness.

The bronze stele rose from the ground, its brass surface shining with gold, and the edge of the back glowing with blue.

Could it be that the bronze mask is also filled with murderous aura?

After Yang Chang's mind wandered to the bronze stele, he saw what he had just thought of, and the bronze surface was filled with murderous blue light.

Wow, I gained a lot from this battle and my realm can be upgraded.

This guy first absorbed the blue murderous aura, and the bronze stele was refreshed and dimmed immediately. There was only a faint blue light at the bottom of the stele. After absorbing the golden light, half of the yellow light remained on the brass surface.

It seems that as long as you take over the land and population, your popularity value will increase to a certain extent, and only the murderous value needs to be collected one by one.

For the sake of my brother's immortal cultivation plan, I have to ask the Jin Liao soldiers to continue to send them to me in batches.

After a while, the bronze tablet sank into the sea of ​​consciousness, and the attribute panel fell from the sky.

Cultivation: Qi Refining Level 6
Fate: Corpse collector

Possessing attributes: Tiger's Strength, Leader, Flying General, Iron Wall, Eagle Eyes, Broken Army

Skills: Good cook, master of sleight of hand, master hunter, master horseman, master farmer, master of boxing and kicking, master of sword (lone hero), minor sumo wrestling, master of gun and stick

Possessing special skills: Meteor Smash, Eye of Insight, Calming and Prisoning Power, Flurry of Dance, Hanging Hook, Wind Speed ​​Arrow, Flying Feathers, Flowing Light and Shadow (the special skill of lightness advanced from Centipede Step)

Staring at the entry of [Lone Hero], an explanation popped up on the side: One of the talents for awakening the realm of transformation. When there are no friendly troops around, using sword attacks will trigger the passive attack. While killing the currently locked target, the enemy within a few feet will be inflicted with anger damage. The higher the enemy's anger towards you, the heavier the damage.

Wow, no wonder it’s called the Lone Hero, it can only be triggered by one person.

If [Po Jun] is used to lead troops in battle with [Tiger Roar and Dragon Roar], attribute skills such as [Power of One Tiger], [Iron Wall], [Flying General], [Frenzy], plus the newly awakened [Lone Brave], one person can form an army with swords as soldiers. Although the efficiency of killing enemies is not as good as group attack, there will be zero casualties in single-player combat.

Very good, very powerful, very reasonable.

Now my Qi Refining Stage has risen to the sixth level, which is higher than Gongsun Sheng’s stage back then. However, my stage seems to be weaker than his, mainly because I have not yet learned any magic spell.

Yang Chang was about to leave his sea of ​​consciousness when he unexpectedly saw a change in the special skills column. A new entry [Flash of Light] appeared. After reading the definition, he realized that it was an advanced version of [Centipede Step].

[Centipede Step] is already good enough, how much improvement can [Glimpse of Light] bring?
Yang Chang opened his eyes, then slapped the ground with one hand, trying to use the force to bounce up and stand up, intending to try out the upgraded lightness skill.

As a result, this slap and jump once again stunned Hu Sanniang who was standing by. She saw this guy leap into the air like a swift swallow, reaching an exaggerated height of ten feet from the ground.

This height is even stronger than Shi Qian's lightness skill, and the landing is as light as a dragonfly touching the water, which is extremely inconsistent with Yang's eight-foot-tall stature.

"Sir, you just did it again..."

"I have just learned Qinggong. If my ambition to dominate the world fails someday, I can use this skill to become a thief. I will steal the beauty and jade for you. Bah, bah, I will steal the gold and silver to support you."

"If you don't do the right thing, your ambition will definitely be accomplished."

"Hehe, we were just joking. Let me try again."

Yang Chang pushed off the ground and leaped forward, easily leaping more than ten feet away again. He thought that if he could carry this skill into the future, he would definitely be the king of long jump.

The jumping ability was significantly improved, and the [Centipede Step] was able to move quickly and maintain body balance, so he tried the fast walking state again, and ended up trying out a new trick.

Hu Sanniang just blinked and saw that Yang Chang's body became illusory, leaving only an afterimage in her eyes, and then disappeared from her sight.

"What about people?"

"Young lady, I want to rape you."

"what?"

Just as she was shocked, someone suddenly patted her left shoulder gently, and Yang Chang's joking voice was heard at the same time.

"Didn't you go south? Why did you appear behind me? And there was no sound at all?"

"I told you it's a light skill, called Flowing Light and Shadow."

"Flowing light and shadows? It really lives up to its name. If you walk fast, you can only see your afterimage. Although it is not as good as the princess's magic of walking, it is incredible. Can I learn it?"

"You want to learn? I don't think you can do that."

Yang Chang smiled bitterly and shook his head, thinking that this thing was originally the [Centipede Step], I don’t even know how to upgrade it, how can I teach you?

The only stupid way he could think of was to find someone who also had the fate of picking up corpses, and then take away his skills after killing him. The prerequisite was that the other party had to be able to kill him and awaken the same talent as the Hunter Grandmaster.

Yang Changqi had not yet realized that his strength, agility, endurance and other attributes had all been greatly improved by advancing from the fifth level to the sixth level of Qi Refining, but his agility attribute had been improved the most, thus triggering the advancement of [Centipede Step].

The reason why [Glimpse of Light] can surpass [Centipede Step] is based on the consumption of Dantian Qi. However, for Yang Chang's Dantian, which is now like a big lake, a little consumption is just a drop in the bucket.

Of course, [Flash of Light] is faster than a horse over short distances, but it cannot match a horse over longer distances, and is far inferior to [Divine Speed] which can move as fast as the wind. However, it can be used to carry out assassinations with greater efficiency.

Yang Changming launched a surprise attack at dawn, and it took less than two hours from the end to the end of picking up the corpses. When the defeated soldiers at the east gate fled to the north and south camps, they had just had breakfast. The main generals Yelu Yudu and Yelu Tushan were both shocked.

Of the nearly 20,000 Liao soldiers outside the east gate, more than 60% died around the camp. Actually, there was nothing that could be done about it. The 20,000 soldiers who went out from Yangqu were as brave as wolves, and each person did not get enough heads.

After clearing the battlefield, the sun was already at its zenith.

Although it was autumn, the high temperature had not yet subsided. If the corpses were not handled properly, an epidemic would easily occur. However, Yang Chang and his colleagues were experienced and so if there were few people, they would dig pits to bury them, and if there were many people, they would burn them together.

Then, under the East Mountain, a fire rose up, creating heat waves.

More than 2,000 captured Liao soldiers were terrified as they watched their comrades turned into ashes.

Soon after this group of people surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, they followed Marshal Nianhan to the south to attack the Song Dynasty, but they only went as far as Taiyuan and did not fight many tough battles. Afterwards, they were transferred to the northwest to recruit the remaining small forces of the Liao Dynasty.

The first time he fought with Yang Chang, he felt that the Jin army was even more terrifying than when it was at its peak. He thought that if he had not surrendered in time, he would have been put to death.

Although he saved his life, surrendering to Yang Chang was different from surrendering to the Jin Dynasty. He would no longer have the opportunity to fight with swords and guns. Instead, he would have to use chisels, pickaxes and other tools, and there was a high probability that he would end up spending the rest of his life in a mine.

Yang Chang did not need to fight against foreign races, at least not in Han territory, and all the previous captives were sent to mine.

The Song Dynasty had set up Datong Prison in Jiaocheng, which was responsible for the mining and smelting of the Hutu Mountain iron ore. It was abandoned at the beginning of the Jing Kang period due to the invasion of the Jin army from the south. Yang Chang originally wanted to restart it after recovering Taiyuan, but restoring production was the most important thing. Mining and smelting required the withdrawal of young men, so this matter had been suppressed. Unexpectedly, the old rival took the initiative to deliver it.

In the afternoon, the army returned to the city. Lu Zhishen took Puchashi's slave to the palace and told them the matter of Elder Zhizhen.

Yang Chang was shocked when he heard this. He thought, the Jin army is looking for trouble with Elder Zhizhen? Are they planning to use him to threaten Lu Zhishen? Are they starting to make money in an unconventional way?
"Brother Yang, last time we were in Mount Wutai, my master told me to listen to you. I don't know whether what the golden dog said is true or not, so I leave it to you to decide."

"It's true." Puchashi's slave was very excited, and then added: "The Jurchens never lie."

"Ah"

Yang Chang smiled contemptuously and said playfully, "It doesn't matter to me whether you lie or not, but if you want to save your life through Elder Zhizhen, you can't just rely on your mouth."

"What else does the General want?"

"Then the question is what can you give?"

"This"

Pucha Shijianu was suddenly in a dilemma. This kind of ambiguous words was the most uncomfortable. Although he wanted to survive, he could not betray the Jin Kingdom because his family at home would suffer.

"I am not afraid of threats, and I don't like to keep idle people. I will kill Salumu, Loushi, Puluhu and others if I say so. You'd better think it over carefully."

"Yes, yes, I know the general's power. Marshal Wushi attaches great importance to me. If Elder Zhizhen is invited to come down the mountain as a guest, perhaps I can be used in exchange for him."

"Oh? I don't understand one thing. Elder Zhizhen is an outsider. Why are you harassing him? Although the elder is Lu Zhishen's teacher, he has nothing to do with me."

Yang Chang didn't seem to have finished what he said, but the servant of Puchashi smelled a threat and quickly confessed: "It's because of Xiaolongnu. The Marshal is worried that she will use magic to help, so he asked Elder Zhizhen to come down the mountain to help. By the way, this is all recommended by Song Jiang."

"Song Jiang?"

Everyone in the hall had strange expressions. Lu Zhishen was the first to question, "Why did Song Jiang recommend my master? If you don't explain it to me, I will twist your head off!"

"Song Jiang said that Elder Zhizhen has great magical powers, much more powerful than Gongsun Sheng and his ilk. He will definitely be able to subdue demons and monsters and subdue Little Dragon Girl when he comes down the mountain."

"My master knows magic? How come I don't know?"

"This is easy. Hei Sanlang is just trying to trick fools."

Liu Tang walked up to Lu Zhishen and stared down at Pucha Shi's slave as if he was looking at a fool.
