Chang Siguo rushed to the water's edge in one breath and checked to see if there was anyone nearby. The stone hanging in his heart settled.
Hei's father taught him the art of hearing and positioning, combined with his body-training practitioner's keen perception and calm analysis, allowing him to find a glimmer of hope in the complex sound of cavalry treading the ground. In addition, he was lucky enough to make a prompt decision. , finally rushed out from the encirclement of the cavalry without any danger.
Hidden behind the cold exterior, there is a trace of transcendent self-confidence.
There is a big river in front of me. Under the dim light, I can't see the other side. I don't know how wide it is.
No trace of boats was found on the river. Presumably, the ambush was arranged on the south bank. There should not be such a large number of cavalry waiting for him on the other side.
There was soft and wet sand under his feet. With the afterglow of the fireworks, he looked back to the sky.
There was indeed someone on the back of the white eagle, but it was at least sixty or seventy feet away from him. It seemed that he was being cautious and did not dare to get close. There were many cultivators leaping over the gently sloping embankment. , chasing him.
There were seven or eight bird shadows hovering above his head, which was still a problem for him.
Chang Siguo frowned slightly, as time did not allow him to shoot the birds that were following him in the air one by one. He reached his right hand behind his back, pulled the two thin ropes on the mouth of the arrow pot, and tied the soft leather around the mouth of the arrow pot. Tighten.
This was the experience he gained from the last time he jumped into the Cang River to escape. He specially customized this arrow pot in the service building to prevent arrows from getting lost in the water again.
Chang Siguo inserted the black wooden bow, then without further delay, he strode into the cold river water.
He had to take advantage of the advantage he had and try his best to dive as close as possible to the other side of the river. He didn't believe that with such a wide river surface, the cultivators who intercepted him could still find him by chance like the Beirong people did last time.
The cultivators who rushed over with great leaps and bounds were finally slowed down by a few breaths. Facing the empty water surface, they were all so angry that they jumped to their feet and cursed loudly.
They sent out such a large formation and surrounded the damn Beirong traitors, but they still let the cunning guy escape.
What a shame, if word gets out, people won’t laugh at the incompetence of their Bei’an Army.
Someone lit a torch and illuminated the water flowing eastward, hesitating whether to pursue it downstream or upstream.
They had more than thirty cultivators. With such a small amount of manpower, they could make pepper noodles even if they were spread over such a large river.
They shouted, cursed, argued, and expressed their own opinions, but it was difficult to form a unified opinion for a while.
Other birds that had lost track of their targets began to circle and scurry around the river, and soon dispersed in all directions.
At this time, a clear male voice came from the air: "Commander Liu, why don't you send someone to ambush the river bank ten miles downstream. Liu reckons that there is an 80% chance that the traitor will stop by the river bank to rest for a while."
Everyone looked up and saw the white eagle slowly flying over and hovering diagonally above the water a few feet above the water.
The face of the man on the back of the sculpture is hidden in the shadow of the wings, and his handsome face is blue and white from the cold. His hands in the sleeves hold three bronze coins for six-yao calculations, and he fiddles with them from time to time.
"Oh, since Liu Canjun said so, let's divide some people and go to Hezhou to set up an ambush."
"Liu Shenjun's calculations are perfect. Remove more people and don't let the thieves escape again."
"Then it's very urgent. We can move easily on land. We can dive to the river island in front of others. At the same time, we can cut down trees and build some light rafts. We can work separately. This time we must be the first to catch the thief."
""
I often think about immersing myself under the water for a few feet, swimming down the river, opening my eyes from time to time, and scanning the air in front and behind through the water.
The water is surging and rushing.
People go far away quickly in the water.
Chang thought about it until he felt a little tight in his chest after holding his breath, then he quietly poked out half of his head and raised his head to breathe.
At this time, there was still some time before the last quarter moon came out at midnight, and the skylight was weak, so the chance of being discovered by the birds flying around in the sky was extremely small.
Two-quarters of an hour later, after taking his second breath, Chang Siguo suddenly discovered a dark river bank diagonally ahead of him. The bank was covered with dry reeds that swayed in the river wind.
The water surface was divided into two by the island, and the water suddenly became turbulent and rapid.
Just thinking about a few breaths, Chang thought about it and decided to dive closer.
He has clairvoyance to rely on. Even if there is an ambush on the river island, he can detect it in advance and choose to escape through the water.
In the continuous battle in Yuancui Pavilion, from even using a stunt that consumed all the breath, to running at full strength for more than an hour, to breaking through the siege of the cavalry, none of them required a huge amount of energy.
He felt that his strength was on the verge of exhaustion and he needed to stop and eat some dry food to fill his stomach.
It is best to hide in the reeds, keep your feet on the ground, and rest for a while.
Just as I was about to dive into the water, I suddenly heard a scream, and the wind came from the reeds on the river bank in front of me. "There is a snake". The reeds shook violently, and then there were the crackling sounds of the reeds breaking and the sounds of fierce fighting.
"You two, be silent."
Someone was hiding in the reeds nearby and yelling in a low voice.
It's winter and it's by the water. Where did the snakes come from?
A little common sense, okay?
"No, it's the alien snake that's so big."
"Come and help, you're pestering me."
The so-called strange snakes are snakes that mutate after absorbing the thin spiritual energy of heaven and earth. They cannot be calculated according to common sense and can cultivate based on instinct. They are much more powerful than ordinary snakes.
Mutated beasts and snakes in the Qingyuan Realm are relatively rare, and every time they are discovered, they are killed by cultivators.
Only then did the people hiding nearby pay attention, and quickly pounced on several people. With the light of their swords flashing, they besieged the strange snake that appeared by the water.
The only way is to kill them as soon as possible without delaying the subsequent ambush.
Chang Siguo, who was submerged in the water, was stunned. He was now about twenty feet away from Zhouzi. Judging from the direction where those guys were ambush, he touched Zhouzi's head. No matter how careful he was, it was difficult to hide it from the numerous eyes and ears of those guys. He almost came again. If he had to fight head-on with the cultivator hiding in the reeds, even if he could escape, it would probably not be easy.
So cunning. Is such a small deserted island worthy of an ambush?
It doesn't give people a rest.
Fortunately, the strange snake on the river island came to his aid and made such a big noise that he was on guard.
Chang Siguo quietly dived his head into the water, paddled his hands under the water, changed direction, and went downstream away from the island. In this case, if he didn't go to the river island, he would choose a place with woods on the other bank to rest.
These guys can't guard both sides of the road as tightly as iron barrels, right?
The cultivators on the river island were working together to kill the strange snake. Suddenly, they heard a shorter gray-white snake emerge from the reeds. It made the dry reed poles clang and rushed toward the besieging cultivators.
"Be careful, there is another one."
"It's time to kill him, don't delay the business."
"Why are there so many strange snakes in this continent?"
"Shh, keep your voice down so the thieves don't listen."
"Just keep your voice down. If that thief were nearby, he would have heard the noise and fled away."
"After all, it's better to keep your voice down. This long insect is cunning. It only cut off its tail and let it escape. Be careful, don't get too close to the river. This guy is a mutant anaconda, and he is very powerful in the water."
The fierce fight in the reeds soon ended with the alien snake escaping to death.
The reeds swaying violently by the water returned to their black and silent silhouette, swaying rhythmically to both sides in the wind.
The cultivators who lurked down again looked through the gaps in the reeds and watched with bated breath the movements on the water surface.
The reed leaves are rustling and the water surface is dry and rustling.
Just as Ku was bored with waiting, suddenly the river on the left side of Zhouzi churned violently. About twenty feet away from the shore, a black shadow jumped out of the water with a crash, dragging a long tail-like thing, and burst out with a shocking roar. scold
"I rely on it"
Before the scolding stopped, the huge lump fell from the air back to the water surface again, making a loud "plop" sound.
All the cultivators lurking in the reeds fell into a brief daze and shock, and then they all woke up. Who else could be entangled in the strange snake in the water? Of course it was the Beirong traitor whom they had been waiting for but did not arrive.
God has opened his eyes, evil people have their own evil snakes to grind.
They stood up, applauded and shouted.
"Haha, it's that thief. Haha, I'm laughing to death. He's the one who brought it upon himself. He's entangled by a strange snake."
"Retribution is not good, hahaha, it is not in vain that I have been blowing the river wind for so long."
"Which dear friend has brought wine? This situation is rare. It should be understood and cheered for the gentleman in the water."
