He Siniang was so frightened that she almost fell off the side of the boat and kept shouting at the top of her lungs at the grim-faced Taoist priest.
Although the Taoist priest with a grimace was turned around in the water, he could see He Siniang in the light of the fire dove, and he quickly raised his hands to respond to He Siniang.
He Siniang didn't dare to delay. She climbed up the side of the ship and ran towards the second-floor passenger cabin at the back. When she climbed onto the second-floor deck, she instantly threw the Eagle Lock in her hand at the grim-faced Taoist priest and shouted: "Taoist Master, hurry up, don't do it." Look down!"
The Taoist priest with a grimace fluttered and caught the flying lock that flew over, but with his cheap character, He Siniang couldn't help shouting. When she shouted, she couldn't help but glanced down and saw the lantern-big eyes of the hammerhead fish under the water. He was staring straight at himself, his big mouth probably no longer two feet away from him.
The Taoist priest with a grimace was horrified. He grabbed the flying lock and wanted to fly to the boat. But the more anxious he became, the more clueless his hands became. He was pulled violently by He Siniang. He Siniang had no choice but to wrap the rope in her hand around the support. He wrapped the fence around twice and said angrily: "I told you not to look, but you still want to look! Hurry and climb up with the flying lock, don't flop around randomly!"
The grim-faced Taoist priest still refused to calm down in his desperation, and replied: "If you don't look at it, it's not there anymore? You'll understand even if you take one look at it."
Although he said this, his hands did not dare to be idle at all. He grabbed the flying lock and jumped out of the water, then kicked the hull and started to climb up. Unexpectedly, the hull close to the water was covered with green moss. It was so slippery that the Grimace Taoist slipped on his foot and fell heavily into the water.
He Siniang watched anxiously from above. The hammer-headed fish was about to swim to the water's surface with its eyes, and the old man with a grimace might be buried in the belly of the fish in the next moment.
At this time, an exclamation of "Wow" was heard from the direction of the main deck. It seemed that something extraordinary had happened in the crowd.
He Siniang hurriedly turned her head and looked around, using the light of the fire dove, she saw the corpse flying towards the mid-air. On the deck, Meng Qingyao's volley kick had not yet been recovered - it turned out to be Meng Qingyao's kick that provoked Everyone exclaimed and cheered. When the idiot came, he said that he had great escape skills. It seemed that he was not joking. In fact, he had some real skills in his legs.
He Siniang saw that the direction of the corpse flying out was outside the hull of the ship, and she was secretly happy that this scourge was finally eliminated. When she looked back at the grim-faced Taoist priest, she heard only a roar like a dragon's roar, and the hammer head in the water. The fish actually abandoned the grim-faced Taoist priest who was very close at hand, and turned around and swam towards the bow of the ship.
Suddenly a flash of lightning flashed across He Siniang's mind, and she suddenly remembered that Mrs. Qi once mentioned a giant fish called the "Corpse-playing Dragon King".
This kind of fish is extremely evil and filthy. Where there are corpses in the deep water, traces of this kind of fish will appear in the capital, so it is called the "Corpse Playing Dragon King". And the hammerhead fish in front of me is definitely what Mrs. Qi said. Are you talking about playing the corpse dragon king? Could it be that its attack on the merchant ship tonight was caused by that extremely sinister corpse?
While he was thinking about it, the huge hammerhead fish suddenly jumped out of the water, pressed against the hull of the boat and swallowed the fallen corpse in mid-air. Meng Qingyao, who was on the side of the boat, saw a giant fish like a mountain passing by in front of his eyes, and then a huge wave hit him, hitting him and everyone on the deck and flipping to the ground.
After the waves passed, the ship gradually stabilized. The boss of the ship was the first to come to his senses. He quickly climbed up from the deck and rushed to the side of the ship to take a look. Then he turned to the people who were lying on their backs and said happily: "Let's go! The Dragon King is holding the monster in his mouth." gone!"
"Bah! Damn the Dragon King!" Meng Qingyao struggled to get up. He had just fought with the corpse fetus, and he also had several marks on his body. Thanks to his strong footwork in desperation, he slapped the corpse fetus on the back of his foot. He flew out, otherwise he might have been feeding the fish at this moment. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but said bitterly: "I almost lost my life. Whose Dragon King is so vicious!"
Just as Meng Qingyao finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that the Taoist Ghostface was still in the water, so he hurriedly turned his head and looked behind the boat, only to see that He Siniang had almost pulled the Taoist Ghostface onto the deck. Meng Qingyao saw this and said happily : "Is Taoist Master okay?"
"It seems that he is not going to die." The Taoist priest with a grimace climbed onto the deck and sat down on the ground. He had just been in the river for a long time, and his stomach was almost full. Now he was leaning against the door with eyes wide open. He didn't know he was scared. It’s still because I’m holding on.
He Siniang saw the Taoist priest with a grimace in a daze, so she stretched out her hand to push him and asked, "What's wrong, Taoist priest? Are you scared?"
The grim-faced Taoist priest shook his head, glanced at the people on the main deck who had just recovered from the shock, and whispered: "When the poor Taoist fell into the water, he seemed to have seen an acquaintance in the crowd."
At this time, Meng Qingyao also walked over from the main deck. The Taoist priest with a grimace was worried about attracting attention, so he stood up and said in a low voice: "Xu Yibai is on the ship. Let's pretend not to know and wait until we find an opportunity to kill him."
"Xu...he didn't die in Cave Country?!"
"It looks like he escaped, hush! Don't talk about it yet."
He Siniang and Meng Qingyao immediately understood each other, and the three of them pretended to be nothing and walked to the main deck one after another.
After this incident, the merchant ship was devastated. Various objects were hit everywhere. More than 20 merchants or boatmen were injured, and four people were even killed by the attack of corpses. Dead.
Although the danger had passed at this time, the ship was still in chaos, and the curses in the crowd gradually turned into howls.
The boss of the boat was so busy that he was exhausted, but the second son of the boat was nowhere to be found. At this time, he didn't care about the taboos when sailing. He yelled at the second boss of the boat that there was smoke in the ancestral grave and water leaking from the coffin. After he caught the guy, he had to tie him with a rope. The stern of the boat cannot be towed back to Le'an County.
The grimace Taoist wanted to find out something from the boss of the ship, but he felt that it was not the right time. He stood on the side of the ship and looked around, but he still found no trace of Xu Yibai.
When the grim-faced Taoist priest fell out of the boat, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the crowd. Although the man was wearing a curtain to hide his face, the grim-faced Taoist priest could still recognize him at a glance. It was Xu Yibai who had broken his arm. .
In the cave country at that time, Xu Yibai disappeared from sight after escaping from the secret passage. People only later found half of his arm near the altar door. Later, when Li Tianwen appeared alone at the altar, Xu Yibai still did not show up. The Taoist priest with a grimace only thought that he was dead.
But now it seems that Xu Yibai not only survived, but also escaped from the cave country, and even unknowingly got on the ship with him. It was such a coincidence that if there was nothing fishy about it, the Grimace Taoist would not believe it even to death.
The Grimace Taoist knows very well the truth that "when things go awry, there must be monsters", and when it comes to how to avoid danger, the best way is to nip uncertainties in the cradle. At this moment, the grimace Taoist wanted to find Xu Yibai as soon as possible, and then quickly cut off this hidden danger while the situation was still chaotic.
