I asked in a deep voice, "Daoist Li, if we set the boat on fire, can we go ashore before the ship burns down?"

Daoist Li was stunned for a moment and said, "Fifty percent sure." ”

"Then bet on the fifty percent. Ignition!" I rushed to the side of the ship with my steps, drew my knife and slashed at the dragon-eating grass.

Daoist Li shouted: "The whole boat is on fire, everyone goes down and rocks the oars, and rushes to the top of the mountain with all their might." ”

"No...... No!" Someone squeezed desperately towards me, "Wang Huan, you can't light a fire! The ship is burning, we all have to die! Let's draw lots!"

"Get out!" I raised my hand and pushed the man aside, "Ignite ......the fire!"

"Can't order which ......" The people on the boat suddenly became a mess, some people were pushing Tang * Jun, and some people were desperately pushing their companions around them to push people into the dragon grass.

I continued to chop the blades of grass and roared angrily: "Light the fire, whoever stops it will kill whoever stops it!"

"Listen to his orders!" As soon as Daoist Li gave an order, Tang *jun immediately pushed away the crowd around him, quickly poured the oil on the boat, and ignited the sides of the boat. As the flames rose into the sky, smoke billowed from the cabin.

The person who hid in the cabin just now covered his mouth and ran out again: "The people below are crazy and set the cabin on fire!"

"Wang Huan is really crazy, he makes people light the fire...... "As soon as someone shouted, he was slapped hard by Si Ruo: "Shut up!"

I turned around and shouted to Daoist Li, "Full speed ahead!"

When Daoist Li gave the order again, the oars at the bottom of the warship flew up, driving the warship full of flames to sprint towards the top of the mountain.

The warship of the Tang * army has long been old, and it was not burned into a fire all because the ship came out of the sea with traces of water, but such a strong speed was fueled by the wind, and in an instant, the fire on the ship was raging, and the flames pulled by the wind were like the blood of a poisonous snake trembling and licking and scraping towards our faces.

Although a few of us detectives stood still in front of the flames, the people on the boat were in disarray, and countless curses and shouts poured into my ears one after another like jumping beans.

When my face sank like water, there was a sound of wooden planks cracking around the warship, and Ruan Dalong exclaimed, "What's the matter?"

Daoist Li responded: "The speed is too fast, the ship is about to fall apart." Get ready to dive. ”

"What are you talking about? we're done......" Someone cried on the spot, "Wang Huan, you bastard, we were killed by you......"

I immediately said in a deep voice, "Can you hurry up?"

Daoist Li stomped on the ground: "Accelerate with all your might! Hurry-"

The oars flew at a speed that doubled, and the silver waves of water rippled on both sides of the ship, and the ship, which was already like a sharp arrow, accelerated again, and the sound of the ship's planks breaking was incessant. The warship under our feet could no longer withstand the speed of overload and began to completely collapse. When the side of the ship with the flames fell into the water one by one, the cries of the boat shook the sky again, almost causing a headache.

Daoist Li urged sharply: "Hurry up, hurry up, there are still a few zhang......!

Before Daoist Li spoke, there were several loud "clicks" on the side of the ship, and the broken oars instantly flew up from the side of the ship.

"It's not good...... As soon as I said this, the warship, which was still moving at a fast speed, suddenly turned around in the water and continuously circled and crashed into the mountain beam in the distance. All I could feel was a loud bang, and my feet on the deck involuntarily moved towards the fire-lit side of the ship.

Daoist Li stretched out his hand and dragged me back into place, and roared angrily: "Break the boat, take them down." ”

The Tang Army, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed to the side of the ship in unison, swung his knife and split the board of the ship, forcibly carved a way in the raging flames, grabbed those people and quickly retreated under the boat.

When Si Ruo and I finally disembarked, everyone was already standing in the stagnant water below the mountain beam. I took a general look at the situation on the second floor of Dando, but I couldn't help but frown.

The second layer of Dando Island is like a huge shallow pool, and the embankment-like mountain beam in front of it separates the first and second floors into two sections, the outside is overgrown with dragon-eating grass, and the inside is almost waist-deep shallow water. The yellowish water covered the second-story islands, and the only ones that remained on the surface of the water were towering trees with strange shapes.

Before I could see the situation on the island, I saw the people standing in the water all turn their heads away, and some even quietly glanced at my face between looking down.

Not good!

In a flash of thought, I reached out and grabbed Si Ruo beside me, and jumped under the embankment. The two of us rolled forward a few steps before I jerked my head back to look back at where we had stood.

I just glanced at it, and my heart was half cold—the place I was standing on was completely covered by the dragon-eating grass, and the green grass branches were slowly writhing and spreading forward, and if I had taken a step too late, I would have been swallowed up by the dragon-eating grass.

All of them saw the dragon-eating grass, but none of them alerted me, and they all turned their heads to look into the distance, for fear that I would notice a crisis behind me.

Just when my heart was extremely cold, the dragon-eating grass that had already overflowed the mountain beams retreated one after another after coming into contact with the stagnant water on the mountain.

I slowly stood up and sneered and looked at Ruan Dalong and Peach Demon: "How do you two feel?"

Ruan Dalong said with a sad face: "This ...... This is also an ordinary human instinct......"

Si Ruo stepped forward and said sharply: "This is instinct, this is the ugliness of human nature! They are not worth saving at all." ”

Some people were not convinced: "Is Wang Huan saving people? He is harming people." They could have sent us out, so why did they take us to death again and again?"

The peach demon was probably afraid that they would say something more ugly, so he hurriedly came out and said: "They are all ordinary people, they don't understand the rivers and lakes, and they don't understand the difficulties of our gods. ”

Si Ruo said coldly: "They don't understand the rivers and lakes, but they don't even understand human taste? Wang Huan saved them desperately, but they want to watch Wang Huan die, this is something that people can do? They are wolves, snakes, and beasts!"

"Fart!" someone scolded angrily, "Who is the brute? We say that Wang Huan is the brute, and he beats and scolds us at every turn, who of us owes him anything?"

"You said that Wang Huan tried his best to save us, I think he was just trying to show off for himself. Lighting the ship and sprinting with all his might, he thought he was very good, didn't he? He almost killed us all, right? ”

Si Ruo laughed angrily: "Do you all think so?"

Seeing that no one spoke, Si Ruo said coldly: "If you don't light the warship, someone has to come out to sacrifice to the sea." Which of you is willing to sacrifice your life for righteousness? Come out! Why didn't I see anyone come forward at that time?"

Si Ruo pointed to the person who was talking to her just now: "At that time, you were asked to feed the dragon grass, do you agree?"

"I'm ......," the man said a few times before he said, "We can draw lots! Whoever draws the lot to death will have a bad life, and it is better than putting everyone in it." ”

Si Ruo smiled angrily: "Wang Huan, this is the person you want to protect desperately." ”

I said in a deep voice: "Ruan Dalong, Peach Little Demon, I don't want to look at these people anymore. If you want to keep them, we will go our own way. ”

The peach demon bit his lip and was silent for a while before he said: "Wang Huan, I can understand your mood, but the vocation of the god probe is ......."

"Don't mention this to me. I said coldly, "The Divine Explorer is a human, but not a saint. I can't do things to repay grievances with virtue, and I don't bother to do it. It's already my greatest patience to kill them without killing them myself, and you'd better not test my bottom again!"

I had already moved to kill between my words, and what else did the peach demon have to say, Ruan Dalong had no choice but to say: "Forget it, everyone has their own ambitions, let them go!"

I nodded to Daoist Li: "Let's go!"

"Wait a minute!" Daoist Li took out three copper plates from his body and handed them to my hand, "You shake a hexagram first." ”

I inexplicably shook the copper plate a few times according to Taoist Li's instructions, and the other party drew a hexagram on the ground with a branch: "Go this way, this is your auspicious position." ”

I've never believed in things like fortune telling.

When I used to be in the antique shop, I also met a few fortune tellers, and what they said at first glance sounded like the truth, but when you think about it, their words are "blocked at both ends", and if you don't know where you are, they can still use those ambiguous words to pull the words back.

To put it mildly, nine out of ten fortune tellers are uncertified psychological counselors, they are not calculating the future, but how to make people feel comfortable, at least they have to give the guests a psychological comfort.

But now, I don't know where to go, since Daoist Li said that there is an auspicious position, then go to the auspicious position first!

After I nodded, Daoist Li waved his hand and said, "Come out and explore the way in front of the four people." ”

The four Tang * soldiers came out side by side, and used their spears to probe into the water little by little, and walked into the depths of the woods. Seeing that there was no danger ahead, Daoist Li asked the * guards to surround us, and formed a phalanx and walked towards the woods.

We hadn't gone far before Daoist Li turned around and said, "I said that it was Wang Huan's auspicious position over there, but I didn't say that it was someone else's auspicious position. If you insist on following up, in case you encounter any danger and die in the woods, don't blame us for not saving us. ”

Even though Daoist Li's words are true, those people will definitely follow. It is relatively safe to walk on the road that someone has waded through, and the peach demon will definitely choose to walk behind us.

I knew that those people were following behind and didn't stop them, but Daoist Li said as he walked: "Your heart is still not ruthless enough. Sometimes, a woman's kindness is afraid that she will harm others and hurt herself! soft-heartedness is not a good thing for you, and it may even put you in a dilemma. ”

My face sank slightly: "What do you mean?"
