Chapter 3 Shot in the Snow

Chapter 3 Shot in the Snow

As soon as the man in the bamboo hat walked out of the temple gate, he rushed towards the slope in front of the temple with his gun in hand. With a sweep of his arms, the falling snow at the temple gate was shaken aside, forming a semicircular snow fence.

He looked at the two knifemen coming out of the temple without saying a word and swung the gun in his hand.

Hongying spun with Luoxue, and the next moment she turned into the air and leaped forward. The spear in her hand, with huge kinetic energy, stabbed straight at the swordsman in the right hand like a dragon emerging from the sea.

The swordsmen on both sides drew their swords in tacit coordination, one of them used his sword to defend himself, and when the spear tip stabbed in front of him, he thrust it upwards to knock it out, but at the same time he was also shocked back by the huge force.

The other person seized the opportunity and struck directly on the head, and the situation suddenly became extremely dangerous.

The man in the bamboo hat didn't care. He took advantage of the force and changed his right hand from a normal grip to an reverse grip. His left hand, which was holding the butt of the gun, instantly pulled the front part of the gun shaft that bounced back. The gun then swept from the front right to the lower left and went straight to the three paths.

Seeing that the spear was not in the right position, the left-handed swordsman was afraid that he would be hit in the crotch by the spear before the sword arrived, so he had to retreat backwards and press down with the short sword in an attempt to block the spear and create opportunity for his companion.

Qin Huai was watching closely from behind the statue, and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "What a great sword dance by Xiang Zhuang!"

Not only did he successfully control the situation under the double attack of two people, but the gun-style turn that should have revealed a flaw also created opportunities for subsequent pulling of the pieces in the bamboo hat man's strategy of besieging Wei to save Zhao. This Li Bingwu is truly a master!
The man in the bamboo hat didn't care about the left swordsman's small movements. He paused with his right foot, turned his momentum and twisted his waist. He put his left and right hands down, turned his spear with his waist, and turned around to sweep across the right swordsman who was rushing forward again.

The swordsman on the right also mastered the essence of swordsmanship and was proficient in the three aspects of spear. He raised the sword with his right hand to block, and his left arm blocked the back of the sword, and he took the blow head-on.

There was only a muffled groan, and then he pushed his right knife upwards desperately, trying to pry open the gun tip and attack the gun with his knife.

The left-handed swordsman saw the opportunity, crouched down, and attacked the man in the bamboo hat from three directions with a foot-cutting and slashing move. His moves were ruthless and every move aimed at the man's vital points.

The man in the bamboo hat dodged with a leap, and couldn't help but think to himself that it was dangerous, "These two have such good tacit understanding!"

Thinking of not stopping the gun in his hand, the man in the bamboo hat used the gravitational potential energy of the fall and fired a powerful shot of the gun directly at the head of the man with the right swordsman.

The swordsman on the right was unable to dodge and was hit in the forehead. The swordsman on the left cried out in sorrow: "Second brother!"

However, he had no time to feel sad. He could only seize the moment when the man in the bamboo hat used up his spear and slashed it fiercely across the man's waist, taking away a piece of flesh and blood.

Qin Huai was anxious watching in the temple. He came down from behind the statue, checked his arrangements, organized the things in the temple into a bag, and prepared to seize the opportunity to decide the outcome.

The remaining swordsman naturally understood the principle of "it is better to use the remaining courage to pursue the enemy", and his eyes were red as he was about to get close to poke dozens of transparent holes in the man in the bamboo hat.

The man in the bamboo hat also suppressed the pain and weakness brought by the blood loss, and swept the spear in his hand left and right, trying to force the swordsman to find a flaw.

The swordsman was not in a hurry. He pinned the tiger down with one sword and smothered the opponent with one step, thus guarding the area perfectly.

The man in the bamboo hat was getting a little anxious. He kept hitting the target with his gun, but it seemed that he couldn't get the spear into the target.

He had no choice but to gather strength in one move, then chop down with his spear, intending to use the same trick again and give Phoenix another nod.

However, he did not expect to be separated by a knife. He had to jump forward while enduring the severe pain, and used the momentum of the spear to strike back and perform the tiger tail move, but was suppressed by the knife again.

Qin Huai was fascinated by the scene and took out his homemade slingshot, preparing to interfere.

While Qin Huai was preparing to secretly lend a helping hand, the situation outside the temple became increasingly tense.

The swordsman saw that the spear's power was gradually weakening, so he pressed forward step by step, aiming at the man's vital points with every strike.

The man in the bamboo hat had no choice but to risk losing a lot of blood by spinning his hands and using the move of Nezha making trouble in the sea to block the short sword. He then crossed his back with his spear and while the swordsman was chasing him, he turned his horse around and drew his spear in an instant.

However, he didn't expect that the swordsman was light and strong. He leaped forward, stepped on the spear with both feet, and aimed the sword in his hand directly at the man's face.

In a flash, a stone as big as a baby's fist hit the swordsman's cheek. Even though he had thick skin, the force was enough to make his body tilt.

The man in the bamboo hat was surprised, but still seized this fleeting opportunity.

Looking at the gun tip under his feet, he had an idea. He saw the man in the bamboo hat pulling it back with one hand, dragging it with the other, turning it left and right, and pushing with his right hand.

The tip of the gun suddenly spun at a high speed. If the swordsman dared to step on the gun again, the end result would be that his feet would be spun off.

He had no choice but to retreat in small steps to the temple gate, wait for the right moment, use a knife to block the rotating gun head with the opposite force, step on the gun head with one foot, and then move the knife in his hand towards his heart.

Unexpectedly, the man in the bamboo hat did not retreat at all. He used the tip of the gun as a fulcrum, gripped the gun tightly, and squeezed the elasticity of the gun barrel to the limit.

Then he turned around and did a side kick, using his last bit of strength to kick the gun away!
The huge elastic potential energy and force brought unparalleled speed and power. The gun tip was raised and hit the swordsman's chest.

Looking at the swordsman who was blasted into the temple gate, the man in the bamboo hat half-knelt on the ground, leaning on his gun and breathing heavily, the wound on his waist was still dripping blood, and the blood fell on the white snow, embroidering a bunch of bright red blood plum blossoms. Qin Huai looked at the swordsman who was blasted into the mountain temple, glanced at him struggling to get up, and then looked at the man in the bamboo hat who was running out of energy outside the temple.

He immediately made up his mind, gritted his teeth, threw the packed bag on his back, grabbed a rope and ran out of the temple.

As soon as he got out of the door, Qin Huai jumped forward and pulled the rope. The small and cramped mountain temple was immediately filled with dry wood powder. The violent deflagration and explosion killed the two people in the temple.

The man in the bamboo hat outside the temple was also dazed by the explosion, and his mind was filled with thoughts: "Where did the explosives come from? The pursuers arrived so soon? Damn, I'm so unlucky today. I was just helping my brother "deliver" something and I was targeted by those old guys. Two of them are training their muscles, and one is training their skin. Hey, it's sad enough for them to die here. Hiss, this knife is really cruel."

Just as the man in the bamboo hat was thinking about something, Qin Huai lunged forward and avoided the shock wave of the explosion.

Looking at the bleeding man in the bamboo hat, he rushed forward, fetched a clean cloth, opened the wine gourd and prepared to provide emergency treatment.

"Boy, I have some medicine in my arms..." Before he could finish his words, the man in the bamboo hat fainted.

Qin Huai took out a bottle of golden medicine and a small sandalwood box from the arms of the man in the bamboo hat, and thought nothing more about it.

Use strong liquor to clean the wound, apply wound medicine, and tie it tightly with cloth.

He also picked up some dead branches from the temple gate to make a fire, and stripped the clothes of the swordsman not far away and put them on the man in the bamboo hat.

Just when Qin Huai was about to open the small wooden box to study what the broken jade was.

A faint voice sounded from the side, "If I were you, I wouldn't touch unknown things casually."

The man in the bamboo hat woke up slowly and reminded him, feeling the bandaged wound and the clothes on his body.

The man in the bamboo hat was surprised, "You can set off explosions, treat wounds, and defeat the enemy with one strike at a critical moment. You appeared in such a remote place at a strange time. Boy, don't you think it's a coincidence? I'm very curious about you."

As the man in the bamboo hat spoke, he stared at Qin Huai with his pair of bright tiger eyes.

"Forget it. I see you don't have any bad intentions, and since you've helped me a lot, come with me.

Otherwise, if we were found by those old guys, another life would be lost.

Remember, my name is Li Bingwu."

The man in the bamboo hat thought for a moment and said, without caring about Qin Huai, he grabbed the wooden box and bag, took out the dry food and started eating.

Qin Huai nodded in response, staring at the smoke from the fire in a daze.

"Boy, it's time to get going. If we wait until daybreak, we won't be able to leave."

After a short rest, Li Bingwu urged Qin Huai to hurry on as if he had never been injured.

At three o'clock in the night, two figures, one big and one small, appeared under the moon and rushed towards Cangzhou, which was a hundred or eighty miles away.

It was a windy and snowy night outside the mountain god temple, and a night banquet was being held in Prince Gong’s mansion; the knife in the wind could not satisfy desire, and the gun in the snow could kill greed and anger.

On the eighth night of the twelfth lunar month, this fierce battle on the moonlit night and under the snowy sun and moonlight brought Qinhuai an unparalleled display of swords and guns.

The ultimate punch and strength ignited the fire in Qin Huai's heart, and the door to Yama was opened.
