Xiangshui River.
There was chaos on the shore, and things on the flower boats in the middle of the river were no better.
After two violent explosions, many cracks appeared in the flower boat, and water continued to enter the hull. Seeing that the waterline was getting deeper and deeper, it was only a matter of time before the flower boat sank into the river.
In the river near the river bank, the Forbidden Army soldiers who were rescuing the people who fell into the water heard the explosion behind them. Their faces were horrified and they turned around one after another.
However, in the middle of the turbulent river, there was still no sign of an assassin, which put the general of the Imperial Army who was rescuing the people into a dilemma. It was neither possible to stay nor to go back.
"Help!"
In the river, the people who fell into the water continued to struggle, and soon the attention of the Forbidden Army soldiers was attracted back.
"Save people first!"
One of the Forbidden Army soldiers shouted, and immediately swam over with all his strength to save the people first.
Seeing this, the rest of the Forbidden Army officers were heartbroken and also tried their best to save people first.
On the river bank, the people seemed to have calmed down a little after experiencing the crowd just now, and no longer ran around like headless flies like before.
In the corner that no one noticed, several black figures stood there, holding crossbows and staring at the Xiangshui River ahead.
"The ship is coming, the ship is coming!"
At this time, on the river bank not far away, boats were launched one after another, intending to go to the center of the Xiangshui River to rescue people.
Unexpectedly.
At this moment, in the dark corner, several crossbow arrows shot out of the air and shot at the boatman on the boat.
"ah!"
Suddenly, miserable screams rang out, and several boatmen were hit by crossbow arrows and fell into the river one after another.
"Fuck!"
On the boat at the edge, Old Man Zhao, who had previously ferried Li Ziye and others, saw that all the boatmen were shot to death. He immediately lay down and did not dare to get up again.
what's the situation?
How could he still meet an assassin when he went out to earn some money?
These assassins specifically targeted boatmen like them, obviously not wanting them to go to the center of the river to save people.
How insidious!
On the bow of the ship, Old Man Zhao quietly raised his head and glanced in the direction of the crossbow arrow. However, he was blocked by the crowd and it was difficult to find where the assassin was hiding.
Trouble.
Looking at this situation, the big rescue ship won't be able to come for a while. If these ferry boats can't get through, all the officials will drown in a while.
"Queen, what should I do?"
At the same time, on the flower boat, the river water continued to seep into the cabin, reaching everyone's ankles. Seeing this, a prince asked anxiously.
"Don't rush."
On the main seat, Queen Changsun said calmly, "The Forbidden Army has already gone to find the boat. The boats that brought us here should still be there. When they come, everyone can leave safely."
While sitting at the table, Li Ziye listened to the queen's words and smiled calmly.
Come?
Come on!
If he was the one behind the scenes, he would have arranged for a few people to be on the shore and kill all the boatmen.
Judging from the development of this game so far, it is impossible for the people behind the scenes to ignore this point.
While thinking, Li Ziye drank leisurely while soaking his feet.
He has always been plotting against others, but now that he has finally been plotted against, he must cooperate well.
Behind him, Le Ru frowned slightly as he looked at the water below his ankles.
These shoes were new ones he put on today. They are probably useless after being soaked in water.
Thinking of this, Le Ru raised his head, looked at the boy from the Li family in front of him, and said via voice message, "Boy, don't you think of a way?"
"no way."
Li Ziye responded happily, "I can't conjure a boat out of thin air. Just wait. Didn't the Queen say that she has sent people to find the boat? When the boat comes, we will be saved."
"How about we go to the shore to see the situation?" Le Ru thought for a while and suggested.
"Not going."
Li Ziye refused without hesitation, "When we leave, no matter whether these princes are rescued or not, you and I will be regarded as traitors. They don't care whether we go to move reinforcements or not. Otherwise, why hasn't the queen been here until now?" Dare to leave, people are afraid of you, Master, one more thing is worse than one less thing, the current situation of the Confucian family is not much better than that of the Li family, so it is better to keep a low profile and accompany these princes to soak their feet."
While talking, Li Ziye picked up the chopsticks, picked up a few green vegetables, put them in his mouth, and ate them leisurely.
Behind him, Leru heard the reminder from the boy from the Li family in front of him and thought it made sense. He took out a handkerchief from his arms and started to clean the piano.
The assassins won't come up, and the fight won't be successful, which is boring.
By the way, those assassins have been underwater for so long, don’t they need to breathe?
Although warriors can hold their breath for longer than ordinary people, that is still a relative term. What's more, in underwater fighting, the holding time will be greatly shortened, and warriors will not be able to hold on for too long.
"boom!"
Just when the princes and nobles on the ship began to panic, the ship's hull shook violently again, and cracks spread, and it was about to break from the middle.
"Ouch."
Li Ziye looked at the huge cracks that were spreading under his feet, with excitement on his face. It was about to break, it was about to break!
An alien version of Titanic?
It would be great fun if all the princes in this boat were taken away in one pot.
at the same time.
Under the hull, the battle between Zhang Sun Fengyu and several assassins has become intense. As the battle progresses, all the assassins underwater join the battle, and the situation gradually becomes tilted.
Changsun Fengyu, who was fighting alone, was clearly at a disadvantage with one enemy against many.
"Uh-huh!"
At the critical moment, outside the battle, a sword energy came through the air, cut through the river water, and directly knocked all the assassins away.
"Sword offering!"
The eldest grandson Fengyu looked happy when he saw the visitor.
"Leave it to me here, and you go up there to arrange the rescue."
Under the water, the Three-foot Sword said something through the voice transmission. He swung the ancient sword in his hand and forcibly cut off the two ropes locking the hull.
The absolutely suppressive strength makes all conspiracies seem so pale and feeble.
"Be careful when offering swords."
Changsun Fengyu glanced at the remaining ropes, and quickly swam upward without any further delay.
The three-foot sword stood in the water, staring at the few black figures in front of him, murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
What are the identities of these people?
Such a master who is proficient in water properties cannot be cultivated in a day or two.
Prince Zhongwu's strength is not weak, and he can't do anything to these people underwater. It can be seen that these people are well-trained underwater masters.
In the Central Plains, Mobei, and the Western Regions, there are rarely so many masters who are proficient in water properties.
Are they from the East China Sea?
Why?
Donghai and Dashang have no direct conflict of interest, so why do they take this risky move?
Thinking of this, Sanchijian's eyes dropped coldly, and he charged forward with his sword in hand.
It's useless to think so much, just kill these people first, and only need to leave one alive, then everything will be known!
