Just as our boat was traveling a long distance, suddenly, I heard a noise from the cross-sea flying clouds behind me.
The boat is too big and too high, as if a mountain is standing in front of it, so the noise from above is already faint to our ears, but we can clearly see the messy light and shadow above, the sky will be Dark, the sailors have lit a lot of torches, and when they walk around holding the torches, those lights and shadows become confused.
What happened on board?
Could it be my flight, already discovered by them?
Thinking of this, I was also anxious, busy said to Xiao Wusheng: "Let's go!"
However, unexpectedly, not only did he not say a word, even the dinghy that was slowly moving forward stopped slowly, dangling on the sea.
Confused, I looked at him and said, "What's wrong?"
"..."
He still didn't speak, just standing quietly at the stern of the boat, the light was too dim, I couldn't see what he was doing at all, only intuitively felt that he seemed to be watching the sea crossing Feiyun.
Did he find out?
The noise on the boat grew louder and louder, but time passed little by little, just as I was anxious, and was about to urge him to leave quickly, suddenly, I also saw in front, the huge cross-sea flying cloud cast down Under the shadow of a shadow, a dark shadow appeared on the surface of the sea, and was looming towards us.
That is--
I frowned and was about to take a closer look, but the thing seemed to feel something, and it moved faster, approaching us faster, and then I heard a very thin voice sounded far away—
"Wait for me!"
The voice is-Xue Muhua? !!
I was horrified and looked at it, and it turned out that she was standing on a small boat with the oars in her hand, struggling slowly towards us.
Fortunately, the distance wasn't too far away, and she had already shaken beside us in a while. I quickly got up and helped her to get on our dinghy. Both of them were standing unsteadily, and sat down embarrassedly.
Xiao Musheng had stood quietly at the stern without saying a word.
I looked at her and asked, "Why are you here?"
After rowing for a while, she was so tired that she gasped a few times before she said, "I overheard you talking to your elder brother, and I know what he is going to do. I want to go with you to save Yuanfeng, but you got them People looked, and I went to Liu Qinghan's room. I originally wanted to talk to you over the window, discuss it, and the result— "
Before she finished speaking, she subconsciously looked at Xiao Wusheng.
I immediately understood.
She thought of going to the window to get in touch with me, but happened to meet me calling Xiao Wusheng. She didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse, so she didn't startle us.
but--
I also glanced at Xiao Wusheng. Taking the martial arts of such a person as his, it is impossible to detect that someone in the next room was eavesdropping on us, but he has been letting go, probably he already knows Xue Muhua ’s identity, so Xue Muhua's boat appeared, and he immediately stopped to wait for her.
I asked, "So, how did you come out?"
"They sent someone to look at you, but no one came to look after me." Xue Muhua finally took a sigh of relief, and said, "And when I stole their boat down, it seemed like I heard a lot of noise from them, I don't know if it was What happened."
"Oh?"
"They all got to the other side of the deck, and no one found me, so I got out smoothly."
"..."
I frowned and raised my head to look at Duhai Feiyun.
The sky was getting darker and darker. The tall flying clouds seemed to be standing in front of a huge mountain. At this moment, it was completely integrated into the dark sky. When we looked up, we could only see the messy light and shadow above. Running back and forth, saying something aloud, just could not understand a sentence.
Seems like something happened, as she said.
What the is going on?
However, now is not the time to worry about them. After all, a huge ship like Feiyun crossing the sea is already very powerful at sea. What we have to do now is to rush to Tianquan Island and inform Liu Qinghan of them. !!
Thinking of this, I turned back to Xiao Wusheng and said, "Let's go."
I do n’t have what Liu Qinghan said, you can peep at the red eyes, but this long journey is only the sound of the waves in my ears and the heavy breathing of Xue Muhua. I seem to feel that On this boundless expanse of ocean, our little boat, like a rootless duckweed, is moving forward with loneliness and weak strength.
But always, didn't stop.
As night falls, Tianquan Island is fully integrated into the deep sea of the night, and the flying clouds behind the sea are long gone. In such a situation of no support, it is easiest to feel helpless.
Xue Muhua's hand holding my arm was shaking unconsciously.
Actually, I was also shaking, but maybe because of her inner fear, I could not feel it at all. I just stretched out my cold hand and patted the back of her hand gently.
The speed of our dinghy is not slow. Even, I feel that the speed of the Xiao Yusheng Royal Ship that I saw in Qianqiu Lake is much faster.
This man, his cultivation is definitely not under his brother!
I don't know why, he has such a good practice, but he has to follow this path.
Although he can be said to be fierce in Xichuan, it is talkative and discolored, but now that I am with Xue Muhua and him in this small world, close to each other within reach, but nothing unexpectedly makes us feel Breath of fear, he was like a non-existent person, a shadow that nobody noticed in the light, standing quietly at the stern.
And I felt that he had been looking ahead.
In the darkness, in such an endless ocean, people ’s sense of direction will deviate a lot. In our sight, the Tianquan Island is gradually getting larger, and it is becoming more and more blurred into the dark night, although there is no feeling, But I was faintly aware that we had gone to the east of the island.
But at this time, at least three hours have passed.
It should be too late.
I speculated before that if Xiao Yusheng arrived at Tianquan Island in advance, they would not act immediately, but would wait for the dark to land on the island, but now it is time for them to wait for the opportunity and move. .
We have to speed up!
We are not too far away from Tianquan Island, but because it is facing the east of the island, there is a dark cliff and no lights at all, and we do not know what the situation is over there.
My heart was suffering, and I couldn't help turning back to Xiao Wusheng and said, "Can you go any faster?"
He seemed to glance at me without saying a word.
But the speed of the ship is still the same as before.
I knew this man couldn't force it, so I sighed and leaned forward as I leaned forward to look at the front, but I saw a large silver sparkle flashing in the dark and turbulent seawater, shaking my eyes and paying attention Look, it's a large school of fish, swimming quickly under our dinghy.
It was the same as I saw on the crossing clouds.
Our ship then proceeded, and after about three quarters of an hour, we finally approached Tianquan Island!
And I saw at a glance that Xiao Yusheng's ship stood up ahead!
Their boat is still a little far from the island, but because the sea near the cliff is covered with raised reefs everywhere, just like the pack of wolves waiting below, the big boat can't pass, and can only stop a little far away.
I immediately noticed that there was almost no movement on the boat, apparently, they had landed on the island!
Immediately, my breathing was also quicker, and I stood up to look at the mountain wall that almost straight into the sea, and the steep and steep cliff above, and I couldn't help getting nervous: "They're on the island!"
Xiao Muo said nothing. The boat under his feet seemed to have eyes, and deftly bypassed the dense reefs in front of him, and slowly drove under the mountain wall.
Waves of high tide came in, and our dinghy was swaying especially hard.
I said, "How do we get on __"
Before I finished speaking, I felt a hand grabbing the clothes on my back.
Immediately afterwards, a fierce force lifted me up, and I almost did not respond. The whole person had risen into the air, and the small boat that was constantly shaking with the seawater was a dozen feet away!
Xue Muhua murmured in surprise, almost panic-stricken.
However, her voice was barely taken away, and our feet had stepped on the hard rock again. I happened to step on a raised rock, and stunned it. Xiao Musheng retracted his hand from behind me and grabbed it. I pulled my wrist.
I felt as if my wrist was touched by a piece of ice, but as soon as I stood still, he immediately released me.
Standing next to him, Xue Muhua, frightened and embarrassed, was still a little bit worried, looked at me, looked at Xiao Wusheng, and looked down at the small boat that had become the size of a leaf. Only half a moment later she regained herself: "I __we__"
"We have arrived."
I have experienced Huang Tianba taking me to Tianzifeng before. I have seen some "world appearances". Now this is not a "big scene" anymore. I take a breath and look around.
The sky was gloomy, and I could barely see that it was a raised cliff, standing on a steep cliff, just like a wolf heading towards the sky. But on this cliff, the mountain is not so dangerous and can be climbed.
I thought about the fake map that the King of Iron Mask had taken out before. From some signs I saw sporadically, they should land from here and then go up the ridge above.
I turned my head in a hurry, and was about to say something to Xiao Wusheng, but as soon as I turned my head, he found that although he was standing there quietly, without saying a word, he was a little bit panted.
"..."
My words caught in my throat immediately.
At this time, I came back a little. __ He had been on the sea crossing Feiyun before, and he should have been by my side, but he hadn't let me see it. Obviously, he didn't stay in a comfortable place to rest. Then, From the voyage of the maritime royal ship so far docked by Feiyun Duhai, the boat also took me and Xue Muhua, and then took us two to such a high cliff ...
He can't be tired!
No wonder, before I urged him to be faster when he was at sea, but he did n’t say anything and did n’t implement it. Now I want to come, he should have reached the limit of physical strength, but in order to reach Tianquan Island, we still need to send us to the island , So there is no exhausting physical strength!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel guilty, and looked at him with some sadness.
But the dark shadow still didn't have any feeling, even without any temperature, and stood there quietly, and Ren Haifeng was blowing the wind blowing on him.
Xue Muhua also looked at me: "What shall we do next?"
"..." I paused and then said, "In order not to be found by them, we have to be careful and go up the mountain first."
"it is good."
After that, she turned and walked forward, Xiao Mu looked at me silently, but said nothing, but just followed our steps quietly.
|
The sea breeze whistled in our ears, and the rough rocks quickly shattered our hands, and I didn't know what it was like to touch them, but Xue Muhua and I didn't speak, and only turned all our efforts into nasal stuffiness. Breathing pant, climbing up as hard as possible.
But this mountain is really taller than you can see on the map.
Moreover, it is more dangerous than the Longji Mountain on the previously unknown island. The ridge is not only steep, but also narrow, and there is almost no place for people to walk normally. After we climbed the ridge, except for Xiao Wusheng, it was almost hand-footed. , Creeping forward like a wolf.
And through the towering woods and dense bushes on the other side of the ridge, we can see the whole body of this huge Tianquan Island. It is indeed huge. If the nameless island is like a fierce beast roaming at sea, then this The island is exactly a giant dragon, the winding mountain is the distorted figure of the giant dragon, the waves roaring against the reef, the huge roaring sound is like the dragon head lying on the bottom of the water, roaring.
And on the west side of the island, we really saw some sporadic flickers of fire.
Although, it was very far away from us, as if blinking in the sky.
That should be the Sea Snake Gang, and after Yan Qinghan's people came to the island, they occupied some of the barriers that the iron king had set on the island before, and now they are used as a fortress to prevent the iron king from returning.
Thinking of this, I could not help frowning, and then looked up into the distance subconsciously.
The dark sea of the sky can not see the clouds across the sea.
I do n’t know what happened on the cross-cloud Feiyun before we left, or what happened on the sea, will the Iron Mask King still come to attack Tianquan Island, but this way, the doubt in my heart has been Not answered.
He led everyone to Tianquan Island.
He wants to kill everyone.
But what would he do?
No matter how big the flying clouds are, it is just a ship. Compared with this huge Tianquan Island, it is only a small existence. Even if the artillery on his ship is not small, he cannot destroy the entire island. Right? What's more, the strength of the Sea Snake Gang as a huge force in this area should not be underestimated.
What method would he use to kill everyone here?
As I was thinking, I was climbing forward. The wind on the top of the mountain was getting more and more severe, and the cold temperatures at night, almost frozen my hands and feet. He sighed, Xue Muhua was just a step or two in front of me. At this time, he looked back at me and said softly, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
"It's really quiet here."
"Yeah ..." Except for the sound of a few of us walking, there was only the sound of wind. As the saying goes, hurricane frightens birds, this huge mountain, not to mention beasts, did not even see a bird startled.
The ear heard another rustling wind blowing, and the trees on the mountain shook desperately, making a rustling sound.
Xue Muhua shrank her neck subconsciously and said softly, "What a wind."
"Yes."
"Be careful."
"I know, you too."
Almost at the same time as the voice fell, the cold, silent man behind him suddenly reached out and grabbed my arm.
I was stunned and turned back subconsciously.
I saw Xiao Wusheng standing behind me, dark, and could not see his expression and eyes, only the strong and cold hand on his arm, holding me tightly.
I asked, "What happened?"
Xue Muhua in front also heard the movement behind us, and subconsciously turned back to look at us: "how __"
But at the moment when she turned around, her feet just stepped on a raised stone. The soft soil couldn't bear such a weight, the stone suddenly fell out, and Xue Muhua suddenly fell, and the whole person Slide to the side.
"what__!"
"Be careful!"
I yelled, before she could reach out, she had already rolled over and fell.
"Mu Hua!"
I was so scared that I saw that her petite figure was immediately engulfed in the bushes below, and there was a terrible cry. I hurried to save her, but before I got up, I felt that I was dragging my arms with my hands It took a little more effort.
I frowned and looked back at Xiao Wusheng.
What happened?
From the beginning, his performance has been a bit strange.
But when asked, he didn't say a word.
I was anxious. Seeing Xue Muhua fell like this, even if she was not severely injured, she must have suffered enough.
At this time, I didn't have time to think about it, and I had to break free of his hands and go down.
But at this moment, I saw a few cold light flying over the mountainside below.
I haven't broken Xiao's silent hand yet. He twisted my arm and slammed hard. I suddenly turned around on the ground, only two beeps, and two cold rays nailed me away. Not far from standing!
With a closer look, it turned out to be two arrows!
I suddenly took a breath.
And then, on the silent mountainside, the dark bushes suddenly made a rustling sound, and faintly saw countless dark shadows coming out of them. Their movement was extremely fast, and part of them ran to the front. Where Xue Muhua fell, another part flew straight towards us.
And where they moved, I clearly saw a few cold lights, shining in the dark night.
Who are those people? !!
Suddenly, my heart was stunned. I did not expect that such a group of people would suddenly appear on such a quiet mountain, and they attacked us with bows and arrows, and it was so dark that they could shoot so accurately, obviously not ordinary bows and arrows hand!
Is it the Sea Snakes?
Or Yan Qinghan?
or--
I was confused for a while, my breathing was short, my heart was thundering, and I saw those dark shadows quickly boarding up, not far away from us, and I felt a cold breath behind me, as if suddenly The temperature around the room suddenly dropped. I turned around and saw Xiao Wusheng slowly let go of my arm.
The hand, which was almost pale in the dark, slowly retracted it and stretched it to the waist.
I immediately realized that his sword!
He's going to sword!
All of a sudden I remembered those rumors about him-cold nature, not blinking, and hobby to sword with human blood!
If he started now, he would undoubtedly kill all those people!
but--
I glanced back at those fast moving shadows, and I felt a little anxious. No matter what, Xiao Wusheng's method of killing was not advisable. And even if these people are pirates of the sea snake gang, if they fight like this After getting up, it will take some time after all. We do n’t know how many people have arrived. In case of more people, the ants will kill more elephants. It is also difficult for Xiao Wusheng to get away, and there is no chance to inform Liu Qinghan and Xiao Yusheng!
That is the most important purpose of our profession!
Thinking of this, I reached out my hand at once, and held his hand toward the hilt of the sword.
He glanced down at me, his eyes flashing cold.
I lowered my voice and said, "Don't delay here, find your brother and Liu Qinghan!"
"..."
"Tell them to leave Tianquan Island immediately. This is a trap. The King of Iron Mask is going to kill everyone and let them leave quickly!"
"..."
"Hurry up!"
As soon as my words fell, I felt his whole body move backwards.
I saw the dark shadow flicker in front of me, and a cold wind hit his face, his figure had disappeared.
So fast……!
I couldn't get any response. I looked left and right subconsciously, but before I returned to my mind, the heavy steps behind me were close to my ears.
Several people surrounded me.
My look was a little embarrassed. I was just scratched by Xiao Wusheng and rolled on the ground. It was a gray face and a mess, and when I raised my head, I only looked at the dark shadows. They were all very tall and tall. The man, all holding a sword in his hand, and a curved bow, his sharp arrow pointed straight at my eyebrow.
For a moment, I was suffocated.
But the next moment, I saw those dazzling cold blades, blades, and arrowheads all stopped for a moment, then slowly dropped.
"It's you?!"
