The thunder crossbow uses saltpeter thunder fire to activate the crossbow arrows. It carries a rope and an anchor. It is extremely powerful. It is a powerful weapon for pirates to intercept ships at sea and kill people.
At this time today, the Chen family's ship encountered a thunderbolt and was caught by an anchor on the side of the ship. The ship's motion suddenly slowed down and began to rock violently. The men on the boat were unsteady and fell down.
"Cut the rope-"
Ahu was shouting.
The rope was several feet away from the side of the ship and was difficult to reach. Moreover, the rocking of the ship also made it difficult for people to wield their swords.
The pirate's big ship has chased him more than twenty feet away. A group of thieves on the bow even twisted the ropes and tightly held the Chen family's ship.
"Tao is here too!"
Hearing Taofeng's shout, he flew up from the ship's building, dived down, raised his hand and waved a sword light. Suddenly there was a "boom", and an arrow as thick as an arm and more than ten feet long roared towards him. He didn't care to cut the rope, but he couldn't avoid it. He hurriedly waved his sword to block it and flew backwards with a "bang".
The force of the arrow was extremely powerful, and it continued unabated. It plunged into the side of the ship with a "bang", and the sharp barbs firmly grasped the ship's board, and the rope it was tied to instantly stretched straight.
But Taofeng hit the hull of the ship, turned over and fell down. Just as it was about to fall into the sea, a rope suddenly rolled it up. He rolled in the air and fell to the deck with a "plop", spitting out a mouthful of blood. It was Yu Xin, An Yunsheng and others who rescued him. He gritted his teeth and turned over to get up.
The pirate's big boat was already more than ten feet away. The thief on the bow waved his arms vigorously, and bamboo poles flew over.
The bamboo pole was sharpened to a sharp point, shaped like a thorn or a javelin. It was so sharp that it pierced the cabin of the boat. Two Chen family members were careless and were knocked over by bamboo poles on the deck. Taofeng, Yu Xin and others slashed with their swords, and everyone's hands and feet were in a hurry.
While Yu Ye and Meng Qingqing were watching, they were also forced to lower their heads to avoid.
The ferocity and ruthlessness of this group of pirates are beyond imagination. If the pursuit is allowed and the Chen family's ship is destroyed, the trouble will be big.
Yu Ye and Meng Qingqing nodded and stood up suddenly. A bamboo pole flew towards him, but he turned to avoid it, then jumped up and flew away as soon as he stepped on the side of the ship.
With the support of Yu Xin and others, Taofeng could barely stand still. He didn't bother to wipe the blood on the corner of his mouth and shouted: "Oh, this is not appropriate..." He saw Gan Xing and Qiu Yuan walking by, and he He urged: "Two fellow Taoists, quickly use your flying swords and cut off the ropes. Do not engage in close combat, otherwise the ship will be damaged..."
What he said made sense. He only needed to cut off the rope to get rid of the pirates. And once there is a close encounter or the risk of a ship collision, the consequences will be even more unimaginable.
Gan Xing and Qiu Yuan hesitated for a moment, then jumped into the air.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Ye's castration was over. Above the rolling waves, a rope hung in the air. He tapped the rope lightly with his toes and took advantage of the momentum to fly upward.
A few feet away was the pirate's ship.
A group of thieves on the bow were twisting the rope when suddenly a young man dressed as a cook flew over and hurriedly threw out bamboo poles and several sharp axes. Others were holding torches and trying to light a wooden stake with arrows stuck in it.
Yu Ye raised his hand and waved a sword light.
"Ding dong, bang bang——"
The bamboo pole exploded to pieces and the ax flew upside down.
Yu Ye's feet were hanging in the air, with no way to draw strength, and he was castrated again. But he saw that the wooden stake with arrows was pointing straight at him, and the torch was about to ignite the fuse above. He waved his arm and threw it hard, and the green steel sword flew out with a "buzz", directly penetrated the body of the ignited man, and nailed him to the deck with a "bang". He stepped on the rope with his toes again and jumped high into the air.
At this moment, two rays of light passed by him and headed straight for the pirate's ship. A group of thieves on the bow of the ship fell to the flying swords one after another before they had time to be surprised.
It's Gan Xing and Qiu Yuan. With two people helping them, no one in this group of pirates can escape!
Yu Ye didn't look back, he took a few steps in the air, flew down on the deck, reached out to retrieve the green steel sword, and swung out a sword light.
Gan Xing and Qiu Yuan arrived soon after, urging their flying swords to rush into the chaotic crowd.
But flesh and blood were flying everywhere, and screams were heard one after another...
The children of the Chen family couldn't help but cheer when they saw the three of them being so brave, but in the blink of an eye, they were shocked again.
The sail of the Chen family's ship was broken and the castration slowed down. And the pirate ship took advantage of the wind to go faster and faster. The two ships were only five or six feet apart and would collide at any time.
Taofeng shouted loudly: "Yu Xin, cut off the rope——"
"Senior brother, wait a minute—"
"No-"
Meng Qingqing tried to stop him, but Ahu stopped him.
Yu Xin's flying sword had already been released, and the ropes broke with a "bang, bang" sound. Taofeng launched his flying sword at the same time, but it flew towards the sail of the pirate ship. There was another "boom, boom" sound, and the sails lowered with a bang. Without the support of the wind, the fast-moving ship slowed down. But the Chen family's ship was not pulled by the rope, and its castration suddenly accelerated. The distance between the two ships widened and became farther and farther.
Meng Qingqing said anxiously: "Stop the boat——"
Ahu was also very anxious, but he shook his head repeatedly.
Chen Biao beside him said: "The wind is high and the waves are strong at this time, and the cabin is heavy. If we stop the ship, the consequences will be unpredictable!"
There are rules for sailing on the sea.
Meng Qingqing couldn't force it, so she turned and said angrily: "Brother Tao, why are you like this?"
Taofeng had recalled the flying sword in his hand. Although there was blood on the corner of his mouth, he seemed quite excited and said nonchalantly: "I almost collided with the ship just now. Fortunately, I made a quick decision!"
"And Yuye..."
"There are two masters accompanying you in the wild, why should Qingmei worry?"
He Qingnian, An Yunsheng, Luo Chen, and Yu Xin all looked evasive and remained speechless.
Only Ah Hu spoke out to comfort him: "Everyone, don't worry. If the three masters are fine, we will meet one day!"
If it's okay?
Doesn't it mean that there is no way to escape this disaster in the wild!
"well--"
Meng Qingqing beat her hands and stamped her feet, turned around and leaned against the side of the ship to look into the distance. But the pirate's big ship was already drifting away.
An old man walked up to the deck and said angrily: "I lost my man like this, damn..."
The man he was thinking about was currently looking around in the cabin of another boat.
There were no living thieves in the cabin. Even if there were survivors who escaped to the deck, they could not escape Gan Xing and Qiu Yuan's flying swords.
In the dark place, there were piles of firewood, rice, oil and salt, several barrels of saltpeter and sulfur, several boxes of brand new clothes, and dozens of wine jars filled with wine.
While searching in the wild, I suddenly felt my ears warm. He reached out and touched it, feeling a little confused, so he found a few clothes that fit him, and put them all into the iron storage ring together with the wine jar.
After a while, he returned the same way.
As soon as he stepped out of the hatch and came to the deck, he realized that the ship was no longer moving forward, but was rocking and turning in the waves.
The Chen family's ship has disappeared.
Yu Ye was shocked and wanted to check the whole story, but suddenly stopped and stood quietly. And with his right hand, he secretly moved the sword technique.
There were two people standing on one left and one on the right, it was Gan Xing and Qiu Yuan, who happened to be sandwiched between them, and there were two sword lights circling back and forth around him.
Both sides stood still, as if they were facing each other.
But as soon as he changed his mind, the sword light disappeared.
Gan Xing groaned and gestured: "Let's take a look--"
Yu Ye put away his sword skills.
The deck was covered in blood, with discarded swords and several dead bodies that had not yet been thrown into the sea. Only the severed ropes of the two masts were left fluttering in the wind, and the sails that had once been blown by the wind were scattered into piles. With no one at the helm and without the help of the sea wind, the big ship can only drift, circle and sway on the sea, and will capsize at any time in the wind and waves.
"Humph, this is what Taofeng and others did!"
Gan Xing snorted and said bitterly: "In times of crisis, you and I stepped forward, but a few Taoist disciples stabbed you and me in the back, killing you and me!"
Qiu Yuan, who was always taciturn, could not help but speak out at this time: "Taofeng cut off the rope and destroyed the sail. Fortunately, the wind and waves were not too big, otherwise you and I would have been buried at the bottom of the sea!"
"He has enmity with me, but he has no grudge with you in the wilderness. How could he do this murderous thing? Where is the morality and righteousness of the Taoist sect?"
Gan Xing's words were full of anger, and he said: "I have said before that Daze Dao Sect is in a corner and has no intention of making progress. The disciples only know how to brag and plot against each other. Such a Tao Sect will not be destroyed, and the laws of nature cannot tolerate it!"
Yu Ye understood the cause and effect and was embarrassed for a moment. While he was embarrassed, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.
Although pirates are rampant, he, Gan Xing and Qiu Yuan's skills are enough to turn danger into safety. Who would have thought that just after a great victory, they would be abandoned in the blink of an eye.
Could it be that Taofeng did all this?
Didn't he already agree that peace is the most valuable thing? How could he go back on his word? Even if he wants to take revenge, he can't kill him at this time. Such despicable behavior is really disgusting and brings shame to the sect!
"snort!"
Yu Ye couldn't help but snorted and said, "When we meet one day, I will definitely ask Taofeng to give me an explanation!"
"Haha, what do you mean?"
Gan Xing laughed sarcastically and asked: "Taofeng used the excuse that the collision was dangerous. He was forced to do this because he was concerned about the safety of everyone. What do you do to him?" He shook his head and continued: "Not to mention you and me. There is no guarantee, there is no future, alas..."
"This...it doesn't matter..."
Yu Ye wanted to say a few words of comfort, but was unable to do so. As he looked around, he hurriedly reminded: "The rudder is still intact, and the sail can be raised by connecting the rope -"
Gan Xing and Qiu Yuan both had bright eyes.
Instead of blaming others, try to save yourself. As the saying goes, as long as you hold the rudder and pull up the sail, the ship can take advantage of the wind and set sail!
"Without further ado!"
The three reached an agreement and went their separate ways.
Qiu Yuan was at the helm of the ship to avoid the risk of capsizing due to the bow of the ship moving horizontally.
Yu Ye climbed up the mast with a coil of rope on his back and walked willingly on the deck to respond. Both of them were agile, and even if the ship was rocking, they could move freely, and they were able to reconnect the severed ropes in a short time. Yu Ye jumped into the air towards another mast, using his hands and feet at the same time.
The ship's only two masts were tied to two large sails and three small sails.
Half an hour later, Yu Ye flew down, and he and Gan Xing pulled the rope together, and the sails of the ship rose one after another with a "crash".
But I heard Qiu Yuan shouting that the rudder was difficult to control.
Perhaps the small sail was hung incorrectly, causing the bow to veer off.
The three of them were in a hurry again.
The big ship moves forward slowly...
