Back Off, Let Me Come

Please listen to the question: A war horse is 1.8 meters tall at the shoulder, weighs more than 1,500 kilograms, and wears a suit of horse armor weighing more than 40 kilograms. If someone scratches its hemorrhoids, how much force can it exert when it panics and kicks?

Chen Tang said nothing, just counting the number of broken ribs.

At this moment, time seems to have been slowed down.

No one expected that their master would be kicked two miles away by a warhorse, nor did they dare to imagine that an ordinary warhorse could hurt their master who was in and out of the army seven times without taking a breath, and they even dared not imagine that their master would be injured in a miserable state. However, the superior hearing of the warriors made it impossible for them to ignore the crisp sound of ribs being broken by horse hooves.

"My Lord—"

The guards on duty today are almost going crazy.

There were not many injured soldiers on the front line who were throwing stones at the enemy's catapults, but the master who was under strict protection in the rear was seriously injured and could not get up. This absurd scene frightened many soldiers and generals so much that they could not react. They were a beat slow before they hurried forward.

"Protect the emperor!"

"Hurry and protect the emperor!"

"Come and protect me!"

There is definitely a traitor plotting against the Lord!

Chen Tang's current state could not be described as anything but embarrassing, it could be said to be the most humiliating moment in his career! She was kicked by the warhorse and was unable to get up. She raised her right hand, which was covered with horse poop, above her head. She didn't have the strength to support herself with her left hand. She coughed and spit out blood, while breathing rapidly and sucking in dust from the ground through her nostrils and mouth, choking even more. But there was a group of people who thought she was not shameful enough and shouted at the top of their lungs to protect the emperor, which made Shen Tang so angry that her blood pressure soared to 180.

"Shut up, what are you yelling about! Cough cough cough——"

She slowed her breathing and suppressed the dizziness caused by high blood pressure.

The warhorse was treated as a suspect by the general who rushed over and was pinned down on the spot. It lay on the ground neighing non-stop. Chen Tang knew that it was very wronged, but Chen Tang said that he was more wronged, especially when his hands were stained with a ball of stinky horse poop...

“Get some water!” The lingering sticky feeling on her hand made Shen Tang want to cut off her hand. Woo woo woo, her hands were dirty. Chen Tang suspected that whenever he used this hand to eat in the future, he would probably think of today's experience of pinching horse manure and poking hemorrhoids.

All the delicacies from land and sea have lost their charm.

"My Lord?"

Until Chu Yao's panicked and chaotic voice reached her ears and several familiar auras approached this side, Chen Tang closed her eyes in despair, and for the first time in her heart, she sincerely prayed to God - no matter whether she was a god or an immortal in her previous life, whether she was guilty or not, and no matter whether she was going through a tribulation or being tricked by God in this life, she just wanted to fast forward to the end of the world.

Destroy this bird world!

"Who's watching War Horse?"

Chen Tang wanted to respond, and forced a smile to reassure Chu Yao that he was fine, but who knew that the warhorse would cause trouble again. It was so frightened by the sudden change that it farted in the direction of Chen Tang and pooped at the same time.

She vaguely felt that her blood pressure was dangerous.

The anger was amazing: "It's leaking, you know?"

A warhorse transformed from martial energy naturally has no problems with eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, but a living warhorse does. During combat, the feeding and care of war horses is no trivial matter. The grooms who feed the horses must be very careful to ensure that they are in the best condition during combat.

The selection of war horses is not only based on their physical quality, but also requires emotional stability. The best are selected from generation to generation, and only the horses that can stably inherit various advantages can be chosen as war horses.

It is almost impossible to be timid and easily frightened.

If the army is well taken care of, it is impossible for them to escape in front of the battlefield.

Even the bad luck brought by Kangshi, the god of plague, could not come out of nothing. Instead, it was the low fortune that brought together various small-probability accidents, and then the quantitative change led to a qualitative change - hemorrhoids did not grow all at once, and diarrhea did not occur suddenly. There must be a reason for the smoke to come out.

Chen Tang said angrily: “Let the military commander come here!”

Damn, let her find out what's going on. She must throw the culprit onto the catapult and then send it to the other side through airmail!

Chu Yao was so frightened by Chen Tang's miserable condition that his heart rate soared for several breaths. While ordering the Xinglin doctors to come over, he also mobilized people to protect this place to prevent any more accidents. On the other side, Qi Shan, who realized that something was wrong with his condition, was also rushing over.

I felt an unexplained sharp pain in my chest and my ribs broke.

It was as if he had been kicked by a warhorse.

External injuries are a minor matter. The most important thing is the internal injuries caused by the master's emotions: "Wuhui, the master is furious!"

The king and his subjects had served for many years, but it was rare that they had seen the master so angry.

Chu Yao looked up upon hearing the voice, and recognized at a glance that Qi Shan's face was not in a good state. This was not a sign of panic or worry, but a clear sign of blood rushing to the top. Thinking of the special connection between Qi Shan and his master, Chu Yao made a prompt decision and did something that could be described as outrageous - before everyone, including Chen Tang himself, could react, he chopped Chen Tang unconscious with a single blow of his hand!

Chen Tang was completely defenseless against Chu Yao, so he naturally didn't expect that he would be so cruel to him: "My neck——"

He stared with a pair of almond-shaped eyes, and fainted unwillingly.

Qi Shan felt a pain in her neck and staggered forward a few steps. Once she fainted, the negative state that Qi Shan felt was also alleviated. Then I felt a chill in my back, a wave of fear surged in my heart, and sweat broke out on my forehead. The first time I went to the battlefield and watched thousands of people fighting, I had never felt so distressed. Today, I experienced firsthand what it meant to be "in a state of panic": "My lord, are you okay?"

On this side, Doctor Xinglin rushed over immediately after receiving the news from the king.

He is also an old acquaintance, Fang Yan.

Even though Fang Yan had experienced many ups and downs over the years, he lost his composure the first time he saw Shen Tang's miserable appearance, but he didn't show it on his face. He half-knelt on the ground and opened his portable medicine box: "Who on earth could hurt the master so much?"

This person has made many big mistakes by beating people above his level.

Based on Fang Yan's understanding of her, even if there were twenty Chehous in the enemy camp, they probably couldn't make her so miserable and haggard. It was really hard to imagine the scene. Look, her breastplate was violently cracked, and her face was covered with vomited blood.

How could a fight of this level be small?

I didn’t feel the earth shaking or the energy of heaven and earth in chaos just now.

Chu Yao didn't say who it was, but urged Fang Yan to treat Shen Tang quickly. Fang Yan didn't dare to delay any longer, for fear of missing the opportunity to treat him. After a diagnosis, Fang Yan's heart was relieved, but with it came more doubts - the seven or eight broken ribs did not hurt the internal organs, and they were all tightly wrapped by the thick and pure martial energy, which also reduced the difficulty of treatment for Fang Yan. He only needed to guide a little, align the broken bones in order, and promote healing to be fine - the martial energy of the Danfu was not consumed at all.

In other words, the injuries were not caused by a strong enemy.

Chu Yao saw the doubt in his eyes and said, "It was a horse hoof that kicked me."

Fang Yan was surprised: "Kicked by a horse's hoof?"

Qi Shan raised his voice and asked, "Was it really the horse that kicked him?"

Only a celestial horse raised by Bima Wen can have this ability, right?

Chu Yao changed the subject: "Is the master ill?"

Fang Yan said: "The ribs are fine, but the back of the neck was hit hard, and the cervical vertebrae were dislocated, so -"

By coincidence, her cervical vertebrae were broken.

Qishan: “…”

No wonder my neck hurts so much.

Chu Yao's face suddenly turned paler than a dead ghost. Fang Yan suspected that Chu Wuhui would stand up and draw his sword to commit suicide in the next second. He thought Chu Yao was worried about Shen Tang's safety, so he hurriedly comforted him, "But fortunately, it's just a minor injury, and it didn't hurt the cervical spinal cord."

The cervical vertebrae does sound scary, but which warrior who lives in troubled times has not had his bones broken? Ordinary people need to recover for a hundred days after breaking a bone, but a warrior who uses martial energy to fix the bone is a man/woman again.

Chu Yao let out a long sigh, his hands on his knees stopped shaking, and he kept muttering, "Very good, this is very good."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Fang Yan added: "It's just——"

"Fang Laoliu, can you please say it all in one breath?" Qi Shan couldn't stand the feeling of his heart rising and falling, so he maintained a weird and funny posture with his hands holding his head, hoping that Fang Yan could say everything in one breath and not torture him.

Fang Yan warned earnestly, "Master, your meridians are burned by heart fire, your Danfu is agitated, your Qi is stagnant and turns into fire, the heat consumes the Yin of the liver and kidneys, causing damage to the heart vessels and brain tubes. When you wake up, I will remind you to stay calm and not get angry again."

He had been Shen Tang's imperial physician for many years, and was very familiar with Shen Tang's pulse cases over the years. He knew that Shen Tang was an emotionally stable person, and would restrain himself even when he got angry. But when he took Shen Tang's pulse today, he found something unusual. Fang Yan couldn't imagine what earth-shattering event had caused her to lose control. This was the result of someone plotting to usurp the throne, right?

Fang Yan added cautiously, "The master has practiced both civil and military arts, and his meridians have been nourished by the civil and military energy for years. His toughness should be far better than that of his peers... It is not easy to damage him to this extent. Perhaps you two can investigate secretly?"

He was clearly telling Chu Yao that the two Shen Tangs might have been assassinated.

Otherwise it doesn't make sense at all.

Not to mention the brave warriors, the literary scholars are all strong and healthy - not to mention the oddballs like Gu Chi - the anger that can kill an ordinary person would at most cause a few painful feelings on a literary scholar, but the impact would be even smaller on a brave warrior.

Fang Yan suspected that some of the Chinese society had used shady tactics to harm people.

It's time to carefully screen the background of those serving the master.

"...Hey, show it to Yuanliang too." As soon as he saw his master in such a bad state, he knew who the "traitor" was, and he couldn't refute the other party's reasonable guess. Kang Jishou was indeed like a reinforcement brought by the enemy at times.

"Qi Zhongshu was also injured?"

Fang Yan said as he swung a red thread from his sleeve, which flexibly and accurately wrapped around Qi Shan's wrist. He felt it carefully, and after a while he felt the same pulse on Qi Shan as Shen Tang.

Fang Yan: “…”

Okay, let him worry less, just write a prescription.

From time to time, stones fell from the sky towards Shen Tang, but they were all broken by the guards who kept a close eye on them. Chu Yao and his companions knew that the "protection" movement just now was too loud and caused a shock to the morale. It was indeed unwise to continue to confront the Changqiao Stone Fort.

Helpless, I can only call it a day.

On the other hand, the enemy suspected that this was Kangguo's strategy to lure the enemy.

The two sides had been facing each other across the long bridge for two or three days, and there had been more than ten conflicts of varying sizes, each of which lasted for quite a while. Kangguo had not yet achieved its goal, so why did it withdraw its troops on its own initiative? Suspecting a fraud, the Central Allied Forces did not dare to act rashly.

"...I think this so-called Kangguo is nothing but a bunch of rabble. I really don't know why all the fuss is needed." The general spoke with a voice like a bell, and his words were full of contempt. Today, the two sides tested each other across the bridge, and there was an obvious gap in the defense of Kangguo’s air force formation. Even such a big stone could leak through it. Are they blind? Either he is blind or Kang Guo did it on purpose. I don’t know who is behind the scenes who would harm others like this. The general had lived for many years and could guess countless intrigues as soon as he saw this situation.

The others didn't agree verbally, but they agreed to some extent in their hearts.

Kangguo's performance is indeed not that of a war-torn army.

"…Perhaps it is to show weakness to the enemy?"

"Humph, isn't it destroying our own morale to show weakness to the enemy now?"

A novice on the battlefield should not make such a low-level mistake.

"...What kind of foundation can Kangguo have in a wild place like the northwest? It's just a bunch of reckless men." The first general who spoke had a serious stereotype about Kangguo, or rather, he had an opinion about the countries in the northwest continent. "The branch is overestimating them. Even if Kangguo unified the northwest and southwest, what would happen? Over the years, how many countries have been able to pass on their power smoothly?"

Most of them die suddenly in the first life/die in the second life.

Although it is called a country, in his eyes it is just playing house and satisfying the desire to be the leader of a country. Kangguo will be no exception.

"Because Chen Youli is young and strong enough. How old is she this year? She is not even thirty yet! Kangguo has only been established for a few years and it has achieved its current prosperity. If she continues to sit on the throne, it will be very difficult to deal with her in the next 20 or 30 years." She is very powerful, and it is not easy to kill her suddenly. This is also one of the main reasons why some social movements in the central part are serious.

Now that she is so difficult to kill, how can her martial arts be stable?

Another reason is that in the entire continent, only Kangguo has a special bloodline circulating. How could the Kang royal court allow the central branch to send people to search for targets among the people? Conflict between the two sides is inevitable. Because of all these things, Kangguo had to be eliminated!

"It's hard to deal with it now," someone else laughed sarcastically, "I don't know who raised a tiger to cause trouble?"

A few years ago, destroying Kangguo would have been a piece of cake.

It’s just that there are always people who fail to see the situation clearly and underestimate their opponents.

Since its inception, members of the Society of the Gods have taken pleasure in manipulating the world's affairs. They always think that it is not that they are incapable of taking over other territories, but that these territories are unnecessary for the central companies. The arrogance in his bones puts him above all others.

If all the countries were unified, where would the gods find a place to stand?

The more core members are, the more they know how much the gods are hated.

The entire continent has always remained divided. This is the result of tacit understanding between the inner society and several major branches. The more divided, the safer it is. Once a truly unified or relatively unified country emerges and both sides have grown stronger, the first thing they will do is to attack the gods.

"Humph, everyone says she's hard to deal with, but I'm determined to take her head off myself. The only thing missing from the antique shelf is a woman's head!"
