The beak of the Nibolu seagull is extremely sharp, but due to the special environment of the Tubo Plateau, the West Sea Huangyu has no teeth in its mouth and no scales on its body. It has no scale protection and no means of counterattack. The Huangyu can rely on to save its life. They just squeezed together tightly.
When seagulls plunged into the sea, schools of yellow fish would pile up on top of each other. The seagulls struggled desperately underwater because the yellow fish were too dense to surface. Some of them were choked to death by the sea water.
The seagull immediately changed its tactics, flapping its wings and hanging above the sea, neither flying into the air nor falling into the sea. It pecked at the "fish road" paved by Huangyu, thereby breaking the Huangyu's formation and trying to catch the fish. The group is divided and defeated.
But this is also very dangerous. The yellow fish has no scales and is very slippery. Seagulls often miss when they peck. Before they can retract their heads, they are hit head-on by countless yellow fish. Once the bird loses its balance and falls into the sea, it is difficult to return. On the sea.
The flying birds were centered on Jiang Shuo, and only he and Dugu Xiang had no seagulls falling around them. The Huang fish swarm rushed left and right in the sea, and finally found the gap in the middle of the flock of birds, so they rushed towards Shuo Xiang and the two.
Jiang Shuo said anxiously: "Xiang'er, come to the sea quickly!"
Dugu Xiang hurriedly jumped up and pulled her body up from the sea. As soon as she came out of the water, the yellow fish below came like a tide. If she had been slower, she would have been carried to the bottom of the sea by the yellow fish.
Duguxiang fell back into the water and stepped on the back of the slimy Huangyu. Her feet slipped and she fell down on her butt in the sea, but she did not sink. It turned out that the fish below were too dense and they actually held her up. on the sea.
Jiang Shuo was originally floating on the sea, but now he felt a tingling sensation on his back as countless yellow fish passed under him.
The Huang fish were driven away by the seagulls and did not dare to stop for a moment. The fish formation was pushed down by the two Shuo and Xiang. The fish behind them pushed and squeezed and naturally got under the two of them. More and more fish gathered, and finally the two of them were encircled. On top of the fish array, we moved together on the sea.
Niboluo seagulls would not attack Jiang Shuo, and Huangyu soon discovered that the area covered with people would not be attacked by birds, so they gathered under Jiang Shuo and Dugu Xiang, forming a small circular island.
But after all, there were too many yellow fish, and this small "fish island" was very big. Seagulls kept circling Jiangshuo, swooping down from time to time and pecking away lone fish in loose areas around the outer circle of the fish island. The fish cannot stand still in the sea and can only swim desperately. The seagulls are very smart and drive the fish to the west towards Egg Island through attacks from different directions. This is because the birds cannot fly in the air all the time and need to settle down. If they cannot The fish rush to the island, and soon the birds will have no choice but to fly back to Egg Island.
The school of fish didn't have the scheming of the seabirds. They just huddled together and swam in the direction where the birds were less likely to attack. So the fish island supported Shuo and Xiang and rushed towards the west. The people on the five boats behind were stunned.
Cheng Qianli put his hands on his hands and laughed: "There are also such wonderful sights. Lao Cheng's eyes were really opened today."
Pi Luoge and his son gave Cheng Qianli a hard look, and Pi Luoge ordered: "Quick, catch up!"
However, facing such a strange phenomenon, the black-clothed warrior did not dare to row at full speed. Five small boats slowly followed behind, causing Geluofeng to scream and angrily ordered the warrior to speed up. However, no matter how he urged, those warriors were Slowly working without exerting any effort, the distance from Yudao is getting wider and wider.
Dugu Xiang had mastered Qinggong. She stood up on the "fish island" and looked at the five boats behind her. She couldn't command the birds and had nothing to do with the pursuers. She could only make faces at them.
Jiang Shuo said to Dugu Xiang, "Xiang'er, you also lie down."
Dugu Xiang didn't know what he meant, so Jiang Shuo added, "The gulls keep pecking at the Huang fish. You can save the lives of many fish by lying down."
Dugu Xiang said: "Brother Shuo, the gulls feed on the Huang fish. You saved the fish's life, but the birds are about to starve to death."
She said this, but she still followed Jiang Shuo's words and lay down on the sea. At this moment, the fish island was about a hundred steps away from the boat, and was still within the range of the crossbow. However, everyone in the Yin League did not dare to shoot arrows for fear of disturbing the birds again. Dugu Xiang was lying on his side, with his head resting on his arms. He seemed to be resting, but in fact he was also secretly glancing at the movements of the five boats.
At this time, Jiang Shuo was already drowsy. Dugu Xiang was also afraid that Jiang Shuo would not wake up once he fell asleep, so she kept talking to him to keep him awake. She asked: "Brother Shuo , you said that the birds gathered here and the fish should not run away, but why did they gather together instead?"
Jiang Shuo said: "I think...it should be the natural nature of things. If they are scattered, they will be eaten by birds one by one. Only by gathering together can we fight against birds. This has been the case for thousands of years when Huangyu migrates, but I called the gulls here Here, the time for the fish to gather is greatly advanced..."
Dugu Xiang said happily: "So the fish can carry us all the way to the shore."
Jiang Shuo looked at the sky. The sky on the plateau seemed to be closer to people than in the Central Plains. It was all blue, and the scattered clouds in the sky were retreating rapidly. He knew that the fish moved very fast, far better than the small boat when they came. He sighed softly: "Xiang'er, I'm very happy that you can live this way..."
Dugu Xiang reached out to hold his hand and said, "Brother Shuo, as long as you can escape the danger, there is always a way to heal your injuries."
It was midsummer at noon, but Jiang Shuo began to feel cold. He nodded groggily, the sunlight on his eyelids getting darker and darker, and he passed out.
After a long time, Jiang Shuo felt someone pushing him. He opened his eyes suddenly and heard Dugu Xiang cry out in a tearful voice: "Brother Shuo, wake up, wake up quickly."
At this moment, Jiang Shuo felt that his body was cold and his mouth was dry. Only the pit of his heart still felt warm. He tried to open his eyes, but it was Dugu Xiang who held his hand and continuously injected internal energy from the Shaoyin Heart Meridian in his hand to help him survive. Jiang Shuo wanted to speak, but his lips were numb and he couldn't make a sound, so he had to gently hold Dugu Xiang's hand with his hand.
Dugu Xiang was crying on Jiang Shuo's body. Suddenly he raised his face. Seeing Jiang Shuo wake up, he said happily: "Brother Shuo, we have arrived at the shore!"
At this moment, the sun was turning to the west. I had just passed Jiangshuo and struggled to turn my head. Sure enough, the white Egg Island was already in sight. When I turned my head again, I saw that the five small boats were still following behind. In summer, the southeast wind prevails in the West Sea. , the five small boats raised their sails, sailed along with the wind, and followed the fish and birds to the shore.
At this moment, the fish suddenly seemed to hit a rock, making a loud noise, and the resistance suddenly increased. It turned out that they had reached the mouth of the Wuhaqu River. At this time, the Huang fish no longer maintained the shape of a round fish ball, but scrambled to be the first. , rushed into the rapids of Wuhaqu, and the birds dispersed and pecked at the Huang fish swimming upstream in the water.
The fish turned into thick yellow ropes and gathered together again after entering the river. Sure enough, they formed the yellow fishway Tuoba Qimei said!
But as a result, the number of Huangyu under Shuoxiang and Xiang's bodies decreased rapidly, and they could no longer support the two of them. Duguxiang clasped his hands around Jiang Shuo and jumped to the shore with all his strength. However, the black ship was a hundred steps behind them. , with Dugu Xiang's internal strength, it was impossible to escape with Jiang Shuo in his arms.
She dragged Jiang Shuo forward hard on the shoal. Seeing that the pursuers behind her had already rushed in, the most anxious Ge Luofeng had already jumped into the waist-deep water and rushed towards them. Dugu Xiang was so anxious again. Cried.
At this moment, a dragon roar was suddenly heard. Ge Luofeng, who was pursuing, could not help but be startled, but saw two horses flying forward one after the other. The one running in front was the Longxiang Pegasus "Hay Cao Yuding Huang"!
Seeing that its little master was injured, Long Xiangma roared like a dragon, which was completely unlike the sound a horse could make.
Jiang Shuo had been riding Long Xiangma and had never watched it run from a distance. At this moment, when he was half asleep and half awake, he could see the dark and mottled stripes on Long Xiang's body undulating as it ran violently, like flapping wings. It is very similar to what Li Bai said in "Pegasus Song": "The heavenly horses roar, the flying dragons rush, the eyes are bright and long, and the eyes are double."
It turned out that Tuoba Qimei had expected that Jiang Shuo and Dugu would need horses after they came back, so he asked Long Xiang Ma and Tao Huama to wait for the two to return at the mouth of the river, while he went to Fuqi City to set up an outpost first. Dugu Xiang was extremely happy when he saw Long Xiang's horse galloping towards him. His strength suddenly increased, and he half-supported and half-draged him, and he took Jiang Shuo and galloped towards the old horse.
At this time, the pursuers behind also discovered the two horses and shouted loudly and waded into the water to chase them. However, Long Xiang's horse came so quickly that he rushed in front of Dugu Xiang before everyone else. Xiang'er carried Jiang Shuo across the yellow horse. On his back, he sat astride the saddle.
At this time, Ge Luofeng had already chased behind Long Xiangma. He was about to shoot the Qi Sword with his sword hand, but Peach Blossom Horse suddenly rushed from behind and slammed Ge Luofeng with his shoulder. Ge Luofeng was completely defenseless. Staggered by the peach blossom horse, the dragon horse took advantage of this momentary gap, neighed, and galloped westwards.
Just when Ge Luofeng was about to pursue him, the peach blossom horse turned around and kicked towards Ge Luofeng. Ge Luofeng sidestepped and said angrily: "You beast is looking for death!"
The air sword in his hand poked several holes in the peach blossom horse's body. The peach blossom horse screamed and fell to the ground. Blood gushed out, dyeing its gray and white fur dotted with peach blossom spots into a bright red. Ge Luofeng flew up and wanted to step over it. The peach blossom horse was lying on the ground and wanted to protect its master. It braced itself hard and kicked wildly with its hooves looking into the sky, hoping to stop Ge Luofeng one last time.
Ge Luofeng was so angry that he put his hands together and cut the peach blossom horse in half with the sword in his hand. Blood covered his body and face. He looked extremely terrifying. Dugu Xiang looked back and couldn't help but scream. The legs clamped fiercely on the dragon's gelding's belly.
Long Xiangma knew that life and death were at stake at this moment. Even if Dugu Xiang didn't drive him, he still knew that he had to run with all his strength, spread his hooves, and ran westward like a cloud and mist. Long Xiangma's foot strength was astonishing, comparable to the top light kung fu masters in the world. Even Ge Ruliang couldn't catch up with him in Xixi Villa. Now he was running with all his strength, leaving Ge Luofeng far behind.
At this time, the pursuers from behind also caught up. Ge Luofeng said angrily: "Hurry up and shoot them with crossbows!"
Piluoge raised his hand and slapped Geluofeng, causing Geluofeng to spin around and said angrily: "Why are you panicking? If the crossbow arrows attract gulls to attack again, how can we pursue them again?"
The blow was quite severe. Ge Luofeng's face immediately swelled up. He covered his face and calmed down. He crossed his hands and said, "What I'm teaching you is..."
Pi Luoge said: "The hidden warrior cannot catch up with the divine horse, so stay here while Tianshi Ye and my father and I go to pursue him. Zhu'er and Cheng Lang, you guys are waiting here to welcome the giant."
He knew that Cheng and Li would not use all their strength even if they chased each other together, so he simply did not want them to go together.
Long Xiang was galloping in front of him, but Jiang Shuo struggled to say to Dugu Xiang: "Xiang'er, you can't go west..."
Dugu Xiang immediately understood that this was because Jiang Shuo did not want to injure Tuoba Qimei, who was waiting for him in Fuqi City to the west, and said: "Brother Shuo, let's go north. As long as we find Mingshui, we can also follow the south of Qilian Mountain." Lu escaped from Tubo!"
Some people died, but not completely...
