Chapter 1 The Big Thief (13)

The Turkic warrior sneered and used a scimitar to pluck Li Xu's blade. He had already seen three hundred slaves wave to him. This was the latest reward given to everyone by Ashina Keyu. The messenger blew the horn and had already spread this information to all nearby tribes. The Ashina family promised that he would keep this person regardless of life or death. If he could catch him alive, he would immediately obtain an official position of Tumen or above, except for the slaves.

"Clang!" The sound of the weapons intersecting is completely different from before. The warrior felt the change in weight in his hands. He instinctively raised his head and found a golden light that broke the curve he drew with a scimitar and slashed straight to the top of his head.

The human head cracked, and blood spurted out suddenly, drawing a strange curve in the air with the inertia of the war horse. Li Xu's body rushed under the blood waterfall and immediately turned red. He had no time to wipe the blood on his face, and with the instinct of the bronze smith master tapping the back of the knife, another scimitar cut against his chest, cutting the yellow sheepskin in half in a row.

Li Xu didn't bother to check whether he was injured or not, so he swept his long knife heavily on the waist beam of the person who passed by him. The next moment, he heard the sound of a broken spine. He turned his head and saw from the corner of his eyes that the second warrior's body suddenly fell like wheat straw hit by hail.

"I killed two more people!" Li Xu shouted in his heart. He had an impulse to throw the knife down and leave the team and flee to the empty field. Fear and despair tied him firmly in the formation, making him unable to turn his horse's head tilted.

The third warrior rushed up, Li Xu changed his move with him and threw him behind him. It took time to return the war aristocrat. Li Xu hoped that before the man chased him, he and his companions could once again break the intercepting team out of the gap. There were more than 500 horses in the team, and everyone had enough mounts to replace.

"Ah!" The scream from the back made Li Xu suddenly turn around. He saw a horse thief wearing sheepskin falling off the horse's back. The Turkic warrior who had once attacked him raised the reins, plucked the horse, and rushed towards another horse thief who already had an opponent.

The injured man on the ground struggled a few times and was soon overwhelmed by the dust brought by the horse's hooves. Screams arose one after another, beating Li Xu's heart.

Before he could regret it, the sudden sound of wind came from his ears, and instinctively hid in a stirrup, and he avoided the sword light. The Turkic scimitar, who had succeeded in sneak attacking, drew a beautiful arc in the air and cut it diagonally towards Li Xu's neck.

There was no way to avoid it, Li Xu had to extend the scimitar horizontally. The distraction just now was just a blink of an eye, but this blink of an eye was enough to kill him. Now, all hope was placed on the horizontal scimitar. If the Turkic warrior insisted on falling the knife, he would definitely not escape death if he was killed by the scimitar, and the other party would definitely be opened by the scimitar.

The Turkic warrior's scimitar stopped. Suddenly, he gritted his teeth and lifted the reins of the horse. The scimitar cut at Li Xu's neck regardless of his ability. With this knife, he could guarantee to cut off Li Xu's head. However, the scimitar that Li Xu stretched out could only cut off the neck of the war horse.

"Puff!" Li Xu's eyes were stained red with blood again. The scimitar that had cut to the vicinity of his chin suddenly flew up with his master. In the world of the sky, Li Xu vaguely saw an iron fork flying into the air with the body of the Turkic warrior.

The unowned war horse rushed forward several steps, fell to the ground, and died. The plasma squirted high and scattered everywhere like a spring water.

"Idiot, don't be distracted!" Wu Heita shouted, rushing towards Li Xu with empty hands. When a Turkic warrior saw the cheap, he scimitar took Wu Heita's shoulder. Seeing that one of his arms was about to be removed, Wu Heita twisted his body, avoided the blade, and punched his opponent's ribs.

The Turkic warrior screamed and fell down. Wu Heita grinned and waved his fist. He picked up a scimitar from the corpse on the ground. He waved the scimitar and continued to rush towards the silly boy. But he saw Li Xu open his mouth and a neat white teeth appeared in his red lips.

Immediately afterwards, Li Xu, who was smiling silenced, waved the two Turkic warriors who were wrapped around him one by one. Then, the silly boy led the horse's head and rushed towards the third person. The scimitar swept the man's head down the moment the other party did not react.

"Ah--!" Li Xu howled like a wolf, and rushed forward desperately. As long as the Turkic people approached him, his subordinates would never show mercy. Red blood dripped down from the broken leather armor on his body, unable to tell whether it was someone else's or his own.

"Silly boy, control the speed and maintain the formation!" Wu Heita shouted wildly. Li Xu rushed too fast. If he continued like this, he would have to be cut to death by someone before he could break out the Turkic people's blockade.

"Let's protect him, use this as the edge, blow the trumpet, and order other brothers to change formations!" Zhang Liang rode a dark horse covered in blood and ran forward and shouted a loud command.

When Wu Heita heard the order, he felt a horn from his waist and whimpered. The desolate horn immediately overwhelmed the sound of people shouting and neighed, and turned the order into the ears of every horse thief at the forefront. Everyone rode their horses and moved closer to the position where Li Xu rushed forward. Soon, more than 20 people formed a sharp knife and stabbed straight into the Turkic wolf cavalry.

Li Xu's whole body was red, only his mouth was still flashing. He shouted, waving the extra-large scimitar specially tailored for himself like a wheel. The sword light rolled past the sun and rolled up blood mist. Several Turkic warriors were killed by him, Zhang Liang and Wu Heita, and several were knocked over by the horse thieves, and some were frightened by such fierce sword light and ran away to their wings.

The Turkic interception team was dispersed again, and the horse thieves shouted and rushed out of the gap. All those who fell off the horse, whether they were enemies or companions, had never looked back. The men on the horse's back were used to life and death. At this moment, it was someone else, and the next moment it might be themselves. Life was full of joy and death was like drunkenness.

The smoke and dust brought by the war horses rolled over the grassland like a torrent of smoke and dust, and it stopped suddenly until it encountered a river of seasons.

"You idiot, if you want to kill me, just say it earlier. His grandma, are you merciless in war?" Wu Heita rushed to Li Xu and waved his fists hard at him. His fists were swollen like buns, and countless small wounds were constantly bleeding.

Li Xu smiled miserably and handed the scimitar to Wu Heita. At this moment, his eyes were blank and unconscious, and his whole body was as numb as a corpse. The only feeling that still existed was that he had to go to the river to take a shower quickly. The smell on his body was so uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe.

The stream was soon dyed red, and the blood-like stream ran downstream. Li Xu washed desperately until his body turned white and his nostrils were still full of the smell of human blood.

He couldn't feel the coldness of the stream, but felt his whole body was numb, as if his skin and muscles were no longer his own. In the bloody battle just now, he was very lucky and suffered only a few skin injuries. Although the blade edge was scary, it was only a shallow layer. When the cold water stimulated, the blood quickly stopped.

But the bloody battle just now shocked him far more than the wounds on his body. He had also experienced two wars in the tsunami, but they were all battles carefully arranged by Xu Dayan. The opponent's resistance was not strong, and no one really focused on him.

Today, the horse thieves fought more with less. The combat effectiveness of the Turkic warriors far exceeded that of the shepherds of the Soto Xi tribe, and all the warriors regarded him as the key target of care. Li Xu could not count the death several times he had passed by him. He knew that he was very scared and wanted to hide his knife. But he also knew that he had no place to hide. If he hadn't happened to meet this group of horse thieves, he would have been a guest in Ashina Keyu Prison.

"I don't want to die!" he murmured at the reflection of the water.

The water splash spread out with a "bang", distorting the childish face.

"I don't want to die!" He punched again with a little crying voice, and the water waves gathered and dispersed, reflecting a strong but far from mature body. Under the water, countless stunned faces widened their eyes and slowly floated up. Each one was a Turkic man who was chopped off his horse with a scimitar.

"I don't want to die!" He hugged his head and squatted into the water. The cold river water only flooded his neck, numbing his breathing.

"If you don't want to die, come up. Do you want to take off your armor?" Wu Heita, who had been watching Li Xu with mocking sunshine on the shore, cursed, jumped out of the river, dragged him to the shore with his arm.

As the sun shined, Li Xu slowly regained his mind. Opening his eyes, he saw Wu Heita rubbing his arms hard. Niu Jinda, who looked so ordinary that he could not recognize him even if he threw it into the crowd, held a handful of grass leaves that could not be named, and stood in front of him with a smile.

"Chew these grass and you will get better soon!" Niu Jinda ordered with a smile.

"Brother Niu, you are a veterinarian! If you want to poison people, how many horses are there?" Wu Heita protested loudly.

"Absolutely, almost the same!" Niu Jinda didn't like to quarrel with others, and said while stuffing medicine into Li Xu's mouth.

The violent bitterness instantly rushed from the top of his head and Li Xu shivered, and his mind and courage returned to his body at the same time. He knew that he had lost his ugly face just now, and smiled embarrassedly, pushed Wu Heita away, walked to Heifeng to get his clothes.

The injured Heifeng could still keep up with the team, which was a big expectation. Several middle-aged horse thieves came over and looked at the horses while watching people. Suddenly, someone's beard patted Li Xu on the shoulder and asked, "Boy, have you bit more than 30 people to death? Why did you kill a few of them and become scared like this bear!"

"Wang Shuang, next time you take the lead, kill ten people to show me!" Wu Heita walked forward, pushed the bearded horse thief and shouted.

"If I had that ability, I would have been a swordsman!" Wang Shuang replied with a smile.

"I, I have never eaten anyone!" Li Xu explained loudly. He didn't know that the rumors on the grassland spread so quickly, and the rumors deliberately created by Su Chuo's troops were actually believed in the south of the desert.

"It's probably because the Holy Wolf was not brought by his side!" The horse thieves shook their heads and explained cleverly. No one believed Li Xu's words. If it weren't for the wolf god, what would Ashi Yufei have done to get this stupid little guy? He ignored the battle, neither knew the formation nor did he know how to plot. If he was rushing around with a big knife, even if he was a talented person, the horse thieves were all great sages in the world.

"I really haven't bitten more than thirty people to death!" Li Xu raised his voice a little more. The clothes he just changed were brought from the Central Plains. Although they were already small, it can be seen from his clothes that he was once a scholar.

"Bit twenty of them to death is also biting. I guess you don't remember it when the wolf god possessed him!" The horse thieves nodded and said mysteriously.

"Isn't it the same if you bite with your teeth, kill with your knife, and shoot with your arrow? If I were you, I would tell them that I would bite a hundred of them to death and let anyone see me avoid it from afar!" Wu Heita glared at Li Xu and cursed: "People say you are amazing, but you are actually humble. I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen such stupid people!"
