234 lives

The water splashed, and the coldness of the bones instantly invaded his body, and Xu Wen had a moment of panic.

He can't touch the bottom of the lake even if he stretches his feet, and people who don't know how to water will always be afraid when they encounter such a situation.

"It doesn't matter, there is a floating board, you can float when you relax!" Zuo Qian sighed in Xu Wen's ear, turned around and went to pick up a few other people.

I don't know if Zuo Qian greeted Zuo Teng in advance, or the tacit understanding between the two fathers and sons, when Xu Wen went into the water, Zuo Teng also pulled the two people into the water together.

Xu Wen forcibly calmed himself down, felt the water and buoyancy around him, and sure enough, he felt that he had become very light and could easily float on the water.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back to see that in the darkness of the night, the figures of the buildings were mixed with the shadows of the trees, and it was not easy to see the surroundings clearly.

He was a little puzzled.

Assuming that the father and son of the Zuo family know how to swim, there are two of them here who can't swim. Isn't jumping into the water more dangerous than being on the shore?

"Only half of the six of them know how to water, and we can't get down without our full preparation!" Zuo Qian seemed to see the question in Xu Wen's heart, and shouted in a deep voice.

Zuo Qian still knows the details of these "companions" very well.

Sure enough, there were only three sounds of water behind him, and apparently only three people went into the water.

Zuo Qian put one hand around Xu Wen's shoulder, and the other hand paddled desperately, swimming forward with him.

After swimming for two times, he looked down at the cat in Xu Wen's hand, and said impatiently: "What kind of cat do you care about at this time, hurry up, hurry up!"

Of course, it was impossible for Xu Wen to throw Qiuqiu, but Qiuqiu's eyes flashed golden light in the dark night, and he suddenly broke free from Xu Wen and swam on his own.

Its wet black fur stuck to its body, reflecting the light in the starlight, and it swam much more steadily than Xu Wen.

At this moment, even Zuo Qian was taken aback: "Cats can swim?"

Qiuqiu glanced back at Zuo Qian, stretched out his claws and continued to plane forward, the speed was not slow.

"You cat, you're really spiritual. Zuo Qian praised.

Xu Linchuan was being taken by Zuo Teng, he looked at Qiuqiu, thinking that it was because of him that he fell into this situation, and he felt a little uncomfortable. But then he remembered what Xu Wen had said not long ago, felt a throbbing pain in his arm, and muttered, "Cen Xiaoyi......"

And Jiang Wangfeng, he is really good at water, he swims easily, and his eyes are almost bursting with stars when he looks at the ball.

However, the brief relief quickly passed, and the sound of the water behind him became louder.

The three monks who knew how to swim up at great speed were also swimming up, and it was obvious to the naked eye that they would soon catch up with them!

Zuo Qian glanced around, let go of Xu Wen, and pushed him to Jiang Wangfeng: "You take him to swim!"

Jiang Wangfeng caught it easily, opened his mouth and was about to ask, when he saw that Zuo Qian not only did not move forward, but swam backwards anyway.

Jiang Wangfeng and Xu Wen glanced at each other and turned back at the same time.

In the dark, a few bald heads stand out.

Zuo Qian swam near a relatively short monk, and suddenly a fierce man plunged in.

In just a few moments, the monk's shiny bald head suddenly disappeared from the water, and the violent splashes and bubbles oscillated, mixing on the surface of the water.

It wasn't long before Zuo Qian reappeared on the water, and the short, short, monk who swam the fastest never floated again.

That's a human life gone!

Xu Wen's heart froze, and at the same time he felt Jiang Wangfeng's hands trembling. He grabbed Jiang Wangfeng with his backhand and asked in a low voice, "How are you?"

"No, it's fine. Jiang Wangfeng barely calmed down and showed a smile, "At least we're a little safer, right?"

"Yes. Xu Wen said with certainty, Jiang Wangfeng took a deep breath, his smile disappeared, and his swimming speed suddenly increased a little.

It's really safe to get out of here.

That human life, albeit an enemy's, made the boy suddenly more enlightened. He suddenly realized how dangerous what happened today—it really was a matter of life and death!

Zuo Qian killed someone, and did not stop there, but turned around and went to another monk.

But this time it wasn't so easy for him, the enemy couldn't let him break through so easily, and the two of them surrounded him together, obviously wanting to gather and kill him first.

"What should I do?" Xu Linchuan shouted at Zuo Teng, "Are you going to answer it?"

"No, I don't. Zuo Teng said calmly, "He'll be fine, let's get out of here first." ”

Of course, Xu Linchuan preferred this, he immediately shut up, Zuo Teng took the lead, Jiang Wangfeng followed, and the two of them swam desperately to the opposite shore together.

The sound of the water was rattling, and it gradually became the leader of the ball, and they followed in groups of two or four.

Not long after swimming, they entered the area of the lotus field.

This season, the lotus canopy has been plucked, the lotus leaves will wither, the lotus stems will stand up, and when they enter it, it is as if the whole world has become bigger, and they have become miniature people.

The surroundings suddenly quieted down, and the sound of Zuo Qian and the two monks fighting in the distance almost disappeared, and the two night birds were awakened by their movements, and suddenly flew up, crossing the lotus field, and the chirping sound was a little desolate.

However, being in such a near-isolated environment does give people a sense of security that they didn't have just now.

Xu Wen glanced at Zuo Teng, his face was expressionless, but some worry was faintly visible.

Zuo Qian is indeed a bit interesting, mixing with the monks and doing some life-buying business, but he also did not hesitate to betray them to help his side.

He said he had other plans, what exactly did he want?

"You also studied carpenter before, how could you recognize Zuo Qian as your father-in-law?" Xu Wen suddenly asked Zuo Teng.

"Oh, oh, I didn't learn carpentry, I worked in mud. I was also going to take the apprentice exam, but like your brother, I was killed by a villain, so of course I couldn't pass the exam. My father-in-law helped me kill that man, and I recognized him. Zuo Teng said it very simply, but the meaning contained in it was not simple at all.

"Killed, is it dead?" Xu Linchuan was stunned and asked in disbelief.

"Otherwise, can you kill them all?" Zuo Teng laughed, as if he felt that his question was ridiculous.

"Does the government care?" Xu Linchuan couldn't help but ask.

"How can it not be ignored? Zuo Tengman said nonchalantly.

He said it lightly, but the cold blood revealed in it made the three people next to him silent.

Even Xu Wen has seen countless stories of life and death in movies and television novels, but when it actually happened around him, he was still a little shocked.

"Why did that person waste your hand?" Jiang Wangfeng asked suddenly.

"Why else? There is only one apprenticeship test place in the fifth-level workshop, and I don't have anyone else if I take it. How can it be like your Heavenly Pavilion, there are more opportunities, how can such a small quota be rare?" Zuo Teng said mockingly.

"I, I'm working hard, too...... My family is a female household, just me, my mother is very strict with me......" Jiang Wangfeng himself said a little weak, and his voice gradually became quieter.

Speaking of this, Xu Wen had a question just now, and he was about to ask, when he suddenly saw Qiuqiu turn his head and look into the depths of the lotus leaf.

Xu Wen suddenly shut up, and after a while, the sound of water was loud, the lotus leaves were separated, and a small boat appeared in front of them.

Standing at the bow of the boat is an honest monk!
