I, the son of Yang Guo, abducted Zhang Sanfeng across the heavens

Luo Shixin has a description in the original book, which is called "pushing eight horses down and pulling nine oxen back."

This scene now is the best reflection of his strength.

However, the eight horses and nine oxen actually refer to the strength and weight of ordinary horses and oxen. With the help of Wanli Yanyunzhao, Li Yuanba has more than the strength of eight horses and nine oxen.

Li Yuanba never thought that there would be a day when he would be pushed down by someone. He stood up in astonishment, and then his face showed ecstasy.

"Well, my good man, there has never been anyone in this world who can compete with me. You are a man, come on!"

Li Yuanba simply abandoned his horse, stepped on the ground, and fought Luo Shixin on foot.

It just so happened that Luo Shixin didn't ride a horse either.

While Li Yuanba was running over, he stretched out a thick copper stick from behind.

It would be more appropriate to call it a pillar rather than a stick.

The diameter of the stick was not much thinner than Pei Yuanqing's hammer. Only someone like Luo Shixin, who had practiced the ancient witch's body-refining method and was bigger than a giant bear standing upright, could swing the stick.

Li Yuanba swung his hammer and hit him, while Luo Shixin raised his stick. With a clang, even Pei Yuanqing, who was injured by Li Yuanba, almost fainted. The only onlookers who could stand were Liang Shitai and Xiong Kuohai, besides Yang Gui and his wife.

Yang Gui felt that this was not a good idea. If his youngsters were to show off without anyone noticing, wouldn't that be like walking in the night in fine clothes?
"Hey, wife, can you wake them up? Give them some protection or something?" Yang Gui nodded at Hou Tu beside him.

You know what, the body of this ancestor witch is not hard at all and is surprisingly elastic.

"Okay, but why don't you do it yourself?" Hou Tu waved her hand lightly, and the breath of life nurtured by the earth was injected into the bodies of all the people in Siping Mountain. Not much, just enough for them to wake up.

After they all woke up and figured out what was going on, Hou Tu waved her hand again, causing ochre-colored earth shields to float up from the ground, encircling them all and protecting them.

Obviously, the couple's views coincide with each other. They pretend to be cool without being noticed, just like walking in the night in fine clothes.

Sure enough, in an instant, even the duel between Li Yuanba and Luo Shixin was overshadowed, and everyone exclaimed that Hou Tu was a deity who had descended to earth. Because she had not changed her name at all, many people knelt down and worshiped her as the real Empress Hou Tu.

It can only be said that this group of people used wrong reasoning to get the right answer. If the person standing here today is not the real Hou Tu, but just a demon who pretends to be Hou Tu to deceive people, the earth will directly sink into a crack and swallow him directly into the underworld to accept the judgment of hell.

"Oh, okay, okay, you're welcome, you're welcome."

Hou Tu is now becoming more and more like Yang Gui. She waves and smiles, acting very approachable.

"Now you know why, right?" Yang Gui poked the surprisingly elastic body again, "I let you pretend to be cool, but if you want good things, you have to think about your wife. Hehe."

"You are so smart. I will reward you tonight."

"What's the reward?"

"you guess……"

While these two unscrupulous saints were flirting shamelessly, the fight between Luo Shixin and Li Yuanba had reached a white-hot stage.

The two exchanged blows with hammers and clubs, neither of them giving in. Even the trees around them that had not been cut down in time to set up camp were overturned by the strong wind from the two men's fight and fell to the ground.

The crowd of onlookers felt as if they had seen a god. If it weren't for Hou Tu's shield, they would have fainted again and died on the spot.

Li Yuanba was sweating all over, panting, and the palms of his hands were slightly numb.

He was mainly attacking at the beginning, but now he is doing more defense than attacking.

Unlike the exhilarating battle he had imagined at the beginning, Li Yuanba didn't even understand how he ended up in such a situation during the battle between the two.

The guy on the opposite side only used three moves in total. He swung the stick hard on the head, swung the stick horizontally, and stabbed forward. With just these three simple moves, he beat me so hard that I had almost no power to fight back.

"when!"

As he spoke, Luo Shixin smashed his head with another stick. Li Yuanba raised his hands holding the hammer to protect his head. The blood and qi that had been surging from Luo Shixin's copper stick could no longer be stabilized. He exhaled a breath of foul air, and his body was shaken by the blow, and he could not help but take a step back.

"blow!"

Luo Shixin turned his hand and swept the copper stick horizontally. Li Yuanba swung his hammer horizontally at his waist, intending to knock Luo Shixin's hammer away and counterattack with his left hammer. However, when he hit it out, it was actually bounced back, just like when he hit Pei Yuanqing just now.

Li Yuanba was horrified and hurriedly swung his left hammer again, hitting his right hammer. With the help of the recoil force from both sides, he was able to block Luo Shixin's stick.

However, he was one step too late, so he took another step back.

"what!"

Luo Shixin did not stop, and followed the instructions of Master Hou Tu, performing three consecutive moves, one after another, until he killed his opponent. After sweeping horizontally, he took back the stick with the rebound force of Li Yuanba's hammer, and then thrust forward!
"when!"

There was another loud noise.

Li Yuanba knew how powerful Luo Shixin was, so he didn't dare to use the conventional method of smashing his stick and then counterattacking. He could only rely on the huge head of his hammer to use it as a shield. The two hammers overlapped and blocked Luo Shixin's stick.

Another step back.

Step by step, one step after another, the top of Siping Mountain seemed to have become a blacksmith shop, with the sound of hammering iron endless.

As Li Yuanba retreated step by step, he finally used his not-so-bright brain to figure out what was going on.

It's very simple, there's only one reason: we're not strong enough.

Not only am I not as strong as the other person, I'm even being crushed by the other person.

Luo Shixin, who had grown naturally, was able to match Li Yuanba in strength, or even slightly surpass him. After all, Li Yuanba had worshipped a divine master and learned martial arts and horsemanship.

Luo Shixin had never learned martial arts, nor did he have a proper weapon. In the original Sui and Tang Dynasties, the weapon Luo Shixin used to fight Li Yuanba was a large iron spear snatched from Lai Huer. The shape and weight were not suitable.

Luo Shixin still couldn't ride a horse. Although for a man of his power, it didn't matter whether he could ride a horse or not, after all, he only needed to squeeze his legs and tighten his wrists, and the horse would have to do what he wanted. But when fighting with a strong man of the same level like Li Yuanba, if he was slow in controlling the horse, he would risk death.

Even so, he was still able to use his divine power to drag Li Yuanba into a wrestling match, and in the end the fight ended in a 50-50 draw.

Now that he has the ancestral witch body refining method taught by Professor Hou Tu, and the three stick techniques, his strength has naturally increased.

Even with the restriction that "strength cannot surpass that of the gods", Luo Shixin has very little room for improvement, but who is Hou Tu? The martial arts that she personally modified are naturally powerful.

At the beginning, Li Yuanba could still fight back and forth with Luo Shixin, attacking and defending one after another. That was because he could use one hand to defend while using the other hand to smash out and attack.

But since some time ago, his one-handed hammer was completely unable to withstand the strong man opposite him who looked like a big bear, so he could only use two-handed hammers to defend himself.

However, this giant seemed to have no idea what recoil and fatigue were. He kept hitting him with one stick after another. The three simple moves of the copper stick attacked him like a tide.

He had no time to adjust himself, his blood was surging, and he couldn't even defend or counterattack, let alone stand still. He was beaten back step by step.

Actually, it's not his fault. After all, he has never fought a battle with equal strength or even been overwhelmed by the enemy in his life. For a moment, let alone his poor brain, even if his brain was normal, he might not be able to think of it in this tense and exciting battle.

For the first time, Li Yuanba discovered that a crushing victory was not very interesting. It was better for the opponent he had been looking forward to for a long time not to come. Why should he let others crush him when he can crush others?

Li Yuanba is not very old. He was only thirteen years old when he was born, and he is not even sixteen now. In addition, he has an intellectual disability and has never been defeated. To put it bluntly, he is not much different from a wild beast.

He doesn't have a strong will to fight.

The invincible mentality is forged by the invincible road. In the original "Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties", let alone punishing Li Yuanba, no one could take Li Yuanba's ten hammers. In the battle of Siping Mountain, he alone dispersed the 18 rebel kings' army of more than one million and killed hundreds of thousands of people alone, which was not like a human force.

This naturally led to his future heroic feat of daring to challenge the sky and throwing his hammer to smash the sky. Although he died in the end, he died under his own hammer, making him appear invincible, and only he was his opponent.

But what has Li Yuanba been through now? Because of his intellectual problems, he is difficult to control, so Li Yuan rarely lets him take action. He will only let him out when he has no other choice.

In total, he had beaten a few unknown minions to death, and the only fierce generals he had defeated were Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing. Li Yuanba didn't even know what these two meant. His spirit was not that strong yet.

Once someone could overpower him, Li Yuanba's fighting spirit would instantly begin to collapse, and even a sense of fear would surge from the bottom of his heart. Seeing Luo Shixin's figure getting taller and taller, and his face getting more and more ferocious, he felt in his heart that "this person is invincible no matter what."

As the fear came up, it could not stop expanding and spreading, like a mountain collapsing, quickly occupying Li Yuanba's mind. He retreated faster and faster, step by step, retreating to the edge of the cliff.

On the other hand, Luo Shixin was also not very intelligent and was like a wild beast. His lack of intelligence was even more serious than Li Yuanba's, so he was closer to a wild beast and seemed to have an invisible sense of smell, which made it easy for him to detect the panic and fear of the enemy.

This further fueled his brutality.

Later in the fight, he simply stopped using the "Three Moves of Hou Tu" and just swung the stick and hit him on the head again and again.

"not good!"

Li Yuan and Li Shimin realized that something was wrong at this time. When had they ever seen their silly son/brother in such a state of decline? They did not react at first, but only now, when they saw Li Yuanba taking two more steps back and about to fall off the cliff, did they become nervous.

Not to mention them, even Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were anxious.

Although they have always regarded their younger brother Li Yuanba as a ferocious beast, feeling both fear and disgust towards him, after all, the Li family has just begun its march to conquer the world, and this is the time when they need a powerful general like Li Yuanba.

Once Li Yuanba was lost, the Li family might never win many battles again. In the end, even defending the city became difficult.

In the current situation, no matter whether it is the army of King Hou Tu who came from the peasant background, or Yang Jian who was committed to eliminating the influence of the aristocratic families since he was on the throne, whichever side wins will not have a good ending.

The best that could be achieved is to escape unscathed and surrender to save one's life, but it is impossible to obtain the glory of the aristocratic families in the past, enjoying various privileges and even opposing the imperial power.

For the aristocratic families who had been powerful since the Eastern Han Dynasty, this was even more difficult for them to accept than killing them.

So the four of them shouted in unison: "Alliance leader, spare our lives. We, the Li family, admit defeat! Please spare my son's/brother's life!"

"What's the point of you admitting defeat to me? Can't you see that I'm an old woman?" Hou Tu snorted, "Which of them do you think I can stop?"

Li Yuan and his son cursed in their hearts at the same time. Just now he was acting like a god, but now he is acting like a weak woman.

"Leader, please spare my life! My Li family is willing to join the anti-king alliance and serve you as the leader!" Li Yuan shouted urgently.

If they surrender now, they will have Li Yuanba in their hands, and there will be a chance to stab them in the back in the future. If Li Yuanba dies now, there will not be enough candidates to stab them in the back in the future.

It all depends on Luo Shixin, Xiong Kuohai and Liang Shitai. Even if they are trapped in a trap, who can kill them without Li Yuanba's military force?

"Clang!"

At the same time, on the battlefield where the two were fighting, Li Yuanba suffered a series of heavy blows and finally couldn't bear it anymore. The hammer in his left hand was knocked out of his hand by Luo Shixin.

In fact, with the backdoor that Tathagata had opened for his uncle, Li Yuanba's physical condition was not so bad. Even if his hands were numb, he still had room to linger.

It can even be said that if Yu Juro was equipped with Li Yuanba's physical fitness, even if Luo Shixin had Hou Tu's teachings, he would still be able to defeat him.

It’s a pity that Luo Shixin had destroyed Li Yuanba’s fighting spirit, and all he could show was a one-sided defeat.

Li Yuan was horrified and fell to his knees and kowtowed, "Alliance leader, my Li family will be directly incorporated into the Hou Tu Great King's army and will be at your disposal. Please save my child!"

"Hey!"

As he was speaking, Li Yuanba's hammer in his right hand was knocked down again.

"Since you said so..."

Hou Tu's figure suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of Luo Shixin, who was bloodthirsty. She raised one hand and grabbed the copper stick that was about to fall.

Everyone opened their mouths in shock.

Although Hou Tu was indeed taller and could not withstand much more than Luo Shixin, her slender hands looked like those of a delicate woman. However, she held the copper rod like this, and the black bear-like sturdy man opposite who almost crushed Li Yuanba to death could not move even with all his strength. (End of this chapter)
