Chapter 732 Hidden Dragon in the Abyss
It is said that Ma Yunluan has already had a deep love for Chen Long, but it is a pity that this time it is destined to be fateless. In the finals, Ma Yunluo went all out as soon as he took action. Even with Chen Long's ability, he was overwhelmed by Ma Yunluo's mercury-like attack.
The colorful ice spears were flying like colorful neon lights in the sky, which made the audience intoxicated. The happiest person was none other than Xiao Zhang, the chief advocate. He had withdrawn from the competition due to injury and was heartbroken. He thought He was about to see the goddess in his heart marry someone else. Suddenly he saw Ma Yunluo risking his life so much that his eyes immediately glowed with hope. It turned out that Ma Yunluo did not love Huaiyang!
Seeing that Ma Yunluan was looking crazy, Chen Long couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. He used the magic power in Ma Yunluan's hand to push forward with all his strength, and soared over the Wei River like flying in the wind. This was Chen Long's long-planned shortcut to escape, and the heavy sword Yique could ensure that he quickly sank to the bottom of the river to escape, so as not to be injured by the archers ambushing by the river.
But despite all the calculations, he never expected that a young master from the Cao family would be ambushing him by the river. The moment Chen Long fell into the river, he shot an astonishing arrow from a good-wood bow. This arrow shot at an unparalleled speed, with a trace of the afterglow of the setting sun. , with a pop, it pierced through Chen Long's ankle which was left on the river.
The severe pain was like cold river water, stimulating at the same time. Chen Long felt his eyes black out, and his body involuntarily followed the heavy sword, slowly sinking to the bottom of the cold water, and fell into darkness. Chen Long stretched out his hand and touched it. A bald-tailed iron arrow had penetrated his ankle, revealing a hexagonal arrow on the other end. Blood gushed out from the injured ankle like dewdrops, and floated upwards along the water.
The Tuanxi Gong has spontaneously gathered at the injured area, miraculously wrapping and protecting the injured area, thus relieving the pain slightly. Chen Long gritted his teeth and was about to pull out the iron arrow. Suddenly, he felt something strange in his ears. His head subconsciously flashed quickly, and another iron arrow split open the river water. In an instant, it pierced through Chen Long's ear, almost killing him. He wanted to shoot Chen Long through the head.
Chen Long didn't expect his opponent to have such a keen sense of smell and be able to see clearly through the turbid river water. He suddenly realized that he was already covered in blood, and blood spots floated to the surface of the river. Ordinary people might not be able to see any clues, but with strong martial arts skills, In the eyes of the archer, the little bit of dark red can be recognized almost at a glance.
Although Chen Long suddenly felt enlightened, time was running out. He could only hear the sound of bows and arrows breaking through the water. Arrows were already raining down from above his head. It seemed that the strong archer was guiding the direction, and Xun Yu was ambushing him. The archer brigade has also recognized its position, and the first round of arrow rain has been shot down mercilessly.
Chen Long was seriously injured, and his body immediately became inoperable. Fortunately, he could still hold his breath while doing the group breathing exercise, so he had to make a quick decision and gave up his original plan of going upstream. After all, the current was very fast. If he had to go upstream, he might not be able to persist. It won't be long. Thinking of this, he grabbed the mountain-breaking sword he was chasing, and then his body lightened up, no longer trying to overcome the momentum of the water flow. His body was immediately swept away by the undercurrent, and he avoided the rain of arrows.
Blood drops continued to seep out, and the beating heart continued to pump blood out of the injured area, forming bubbles and floating towards the river. Chen Long knew that he had to take care of the wound first to avoid exposing his whereabouts again and to avoid the rapid loss of physical strength. While going down the river, he quietly emerged from the water and looked for a place where he could land. As soon as he showed his head, he immediately heard the roar from the shore, which brought up a second rain of arrows and shot towards Chen Long.
It turned out that Xun Yu had determined that Chen Long would escape on the day of the martial arts competition, and the only way to escape the attention of everyone in public was through the Wei River. Xun Yu guessed that Chen Long could hold his breath for a long time, so he arranged ambush of archers and a large number of scouts on both sides of the Wei River during the half-day journey up and down the river. The key arrangements for capturing Chen Long were all along the downstream coast. Originally, Chen Long's plan to escape through the upper reaches could just avoid Xun Yu's arrangement, but unfortunately it backfired because he was injured by an arrow.
The super archer who shot an arrow through Chen Long's ankle on the shore was none other than Xia Houshang, the outstanding master of the second generation of the Cao family. Xia Houshang, whose pseudonym is Boren, is the direct nephew of Xia Houyuan. The fine wooden bow in his hand was obtained from the secret realm of Mount Tai, but it was given to him by Cao Pi himself.
Today, the young Xia Houshang showed his prowess with the good wood bow. The shooting speed of this arrow has reached its peak, almost surpassing the personal guard Cao Xiu of the tiger and leopard cavalry holding the Yangyouji bow. Xia Houshang succeeded with one move, and then shot another arrow in succession. His eyes were like lightning, staring at the dark red blood beads floating in the water, and he jumped on the shore like flying, tracking all the way downstream along the coast.
Chen Long was swimming downstream in the water. Although his speed was not slow, it was obviously not as fast as Xia Houshang's leaping from the shore. Chen Long was determined to compete with Xia Houshang on the shore in a test of patience, but unfortunately he was seriously injured and all his strength was rapidly being depleted. If it weren't for the magical effect of the group breath skill, he would inevitably be unable to hold on.
On the water surface, dozens of small boats suddenly appeared, blocking the front of the Wei River. Li Ru and Xun Yu are both people who have great plans, so the blockade above the water is naturally impregnable. The soldiers on the boat are all ready to fight, with strong bows and crossbows in their hands, as well as various harpoon and fishing nets, specially designed to capture big fish in the water.
Although Chen Long is a hidden dragon in the abyss, his current situation is very similar to that of an injured submarine being chased in later generations, while Xia Houshang and others are giant cruisers locked tightly on the water, vowing to blow up the submarine or force it to sink. Only when you get out of the water can you be willing to give up.
Since Chen Long traveled through time, Xia Houshang became the first famous general from the Three Kingdoms to seriously injure him.
Powerful arrows continued to pass through Chen Long's side, including several extremely powerful hard bows. It was estimated that there were at least three highly skilled archers including Xia Houshang. Chen Long had already deployed the Mountain Breaking Sword and Yique Sword with both hands, and struck out in succession in the water, deflecting the powerful arrows. But such consumption is not the solution after all. As time goes by, even if the Tuan Xing Gong is still alive and well, life will eventually seep out of Chen Long's body bit by bit along with the blood.
Venus gradually danced in front of Chen Long's eyes. He knew it was a sign of exhaustion, so he had no choice but to wave his Yique sword slightly and slowly swim towards the river bank far away from Xiahou Shang. Although there are also powerful arrows on that side, without a master like Xia Houshang who shoots arrows, Chen Long will be much better off. The center of the river was originally deep and narrow. As Chen Long gradually approached the shore, the water surface became shallower. When he touched it with his bare hands, he actually touched hard rock, which was obviously a mountain. Chen Long was overjoyed. He touched a pit in the water covered with rocks and hid his whole body in it.
As expected, the powerful arrows stopped one after another, and a person on the water shouted: "The boat is coming! Even if this kid shrinks into the Dragon King's Palace, I will dig him out!"
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
