It was winter, and the fog was heavy.

From Guhe City to the south, you can reach Shangwanzhou, the richest place in Qingguo, where Luoyang, the capital of the Daqing Dynasty, is located.

In order to bring Chu Xuanzhao to Luoyang City smoothly, this household servant was extremely cautious to help Chu Xuanzhao forge a plate and a fake identity, and there were guards on the ship to protect him along the way.

Chu Xianzhao was not worried about the safety of the road, as long as Empress Zhao didn't ride a dragon to kill him, the water bandits wouldn't cause any harm to themselves.

He left with Lu Wei after separating from Ying Liyang in this way, and he felt a little like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger in his heart, compared to the momentum when he led the army to Jingnan City before, but it was much more decent than when he and Ying Liyang fled from Yinguo in a lonely and sad manner.

As soon as Shen Huayu heard that she was going to Luoyang City with Lu Qi, she originally planned to accompany Shen Taisui in Guhe City for the New Year, and she immediately shouted that she wanted to return to Yang City with Lu Qi, which made Shen Taisui sigh deeply that the woman was not in the middle.

After Chu Xianzhao boarded the boat, he looked at Yingyang on the dock getting farther and farther away from him, and there was a feeling of ending in his heart.

As everyone knows, when Ying Liyang disappeared from his ship, he still stood still and did not leave for a long time.

At this time, the longboat was driving slowly on the lake, and there were two young men and women standing on the deck, the girl was dressed in a green skirt and graceful, and the young man was dressed in a black robe with a heroic and awe-inspiring appearance, especially the snow-like white hair was even more conspicuous.

Shen Huayu looked at his white-haired little heart fluttering and beating, she felt that maybe she was lucky to meet a man who was not him and did not marry in this life, but this man who was not he did not marry did not like her, which was very sad.

She didn't think of what happened with Zhao Song that day, it was very strange why a young man had such a good swordsmanship, she had practiced swords herself and knew what it was difficult to go further.

Shen Huayu could understand how powerful the strength was hidden in Chu Xuanzhao's dazzling sword momentum, normal people faced so many golden dragon sailors who escaped from the boat to kill you, and they had to run away, and only a madman like him dared to kill him directly with a sword, and in the end, even the boat was cut down by him.

Hero?or neurotic?

Shen Huayu shook his head, feeling that the appearance of this guy using sword qi to roll the lake water in the heart of the lake was simply as graceful as a sword immortal descending to earth.

Chu Xianzhao glanced at the little girl in the green skirt who had been peeking at him, but her eyes were confused: "I had a big dream when I was a child, do you want to know." ”

Chu Xianzhao gave her a bleak expression, "I don't have any interest in knowing, when I can have it."

When thousands of troops return to Yinguo, maybe you will be in the mood to listen to your dreams. ”

Shen Huayu opened his teeth and claws: "If you ignore me, if you don't do it, I'll push you into the water to freeze you to death." ”

Chu Xianzhao yawned and said, "Say it." ”

Shen Huayu turned around and propped her elbows on the railing, Chu Xianzhao only needed one more glance to see the plump and erect girl's crisp breasts wrapped in the green skirt, but this time she didn't have the scheming to seduce Chu Xuanzhao," My dream is to be a female swordsman like Qing'an Longxian, and to be more powerful and beautiful than her, no one can restrain my thoughts, and only in this way can I choose the man I like, if the two of us are not allowed to be together, I will fly away with his sword, and go to a place where only the two of us are in love every day, no one can stop us, you say that my childhood dream is not very stupid, very unrealistic. ”

"Not stupid, because our dreams are all similar. ”

Chu Xianzhao smiled softly: "My dream is also to be a chivalrous man who draws a sword to help him on the road on the rivers and lakes, and later I felt that it was too heavy to use a knife to learn swords, but it doesn't matter if I use a sword or a sword, the most important thing is to live and come and go freely like a chivalrous man, I know you want to say that my dream should not be to be an emperor? But I was still very young at that time, and I never thought that my father would grow old one day, nor did I think that he would one day hold a sword at his son." ”

Then he reached out to catch a snowflake that fell from the sky, and soon the snowflake was melted by his body heat, "This is our dream, just like a snowflake, only I will reach out to catch it, but it still melts from my fingertips, and it will be gone in the eyes of others, but only we will feel sorry for it, and feel that even if it is a thousand taels of gold, it will not be exchanged." ”

After listening to his words, Shen Huayu felt heavy in her heart, and said with some grievances: "But you still leave like a great swordsman, unlike me who is stupid, and I can't even use sword qi until now." ”

Chu Xianzhao smiled and said, "I can teach you." ”

"What if you want me to make a promise?" The corners of Shen Huayu's mouth curled, revealing two cute little tiger teeth.

"Then you reject me. ”

Chu Xianzhao responded with a smile, this girl is beautiful but not as beautiful as Ying Liyang, if they really let them cook raw rice and mature rice, maybe let Shen Taisui's old fox find a chance to set himself, or it is better to be friends.

Shen Huayu asked cautiously, "What if you are strong?"

Chu Xianzhao smiled: "Don't you have a sword in your hand?"

"It's useless to you. ”

"Then I can't help it. Chu Xianzhao spread his hands and said.

Shen Huayu said with a grim face: "I don't care, anyway, when the time comes, you have to teach me to learn swords, after all, you also eat my family's and drink my family's, and if you can't hand over the silver, you will have to sell yourself." ”

Chu instantly summoned Tan

Ran said: "I don't sell my art, I can still teach you how to use sword qi, but the mystery of swordsmanship is not something that a young lady like you can understand, and even I don't understand it until now." ”

Shen Huayu turned around and shouted at the lake, "I will use sword qi in the future!

"Are you happy?"

"Happy!"

Chu Xianzhao watched her exert all her strength and shouted, as if he wanted everyone in the world to know that her dream could be continued again.

Not long after the ship left the port, more than a dozen ships with golden dragons engraved on their bows approached at high speed, forming an encirclement in front of Chu Xianzhao, and the momentum was overwhelming.

The guards on the ship of Chu Xianzhao were extremely shocked at first glance, only to see that there were suddenly many more Golden Dragon Mansion ships in front of them, and these building ships were not these merchant ships full of goods under their feet and carrying passengers before the sunset, but they were real armored warships.

In Guhe City, there is only the Gu family in the entire Guhe City who can mobilize so many warships at one time, as long as they come to Guhe City to do tea and silk-related industries, the merchants have to look at the face of this family, with huge wealth and heavy troops, no one in Guhe City can stop them.

Almost at the same time, more than a dozen Golden Dragon Tower ships came violently, and the sailors standing on them were holding short knives one after another, and their eyes were full of solemn and gloomy meaning.

Where can the sailors at the helm of Chu Xianzhao's ship compare to these golden dragon sailors who practice water warfare all year round, but in just a few exchange formations, this boat was surrounded by those dozens of golden dragon warships in the center of the lake.

Several merchant ships that appeared in the rear cautiously walked around the road, thinking that there were smuggled goods on this ship, lest they get into trouble.

One of the sailors shouted to the people on board: "Listen to the people on board, you have been surrounded by our Golden Dragon Sailors, and we suspect that you have hidden bandits on board, so accept our inspection and give up fearless resistance." ”

Then he waved his hand gently, and at the same time the hooks of eight warships were thrown out by the sailors, and they hooked the handrails of the ships with great ease, and the falling boards slapped heavily on the gangways of the merchant ships, which the sailors intended to force their way onto the ship.

Chu Xianzhao squinted at the dozen or so majestic behemoths, if they really fought, the ship under his feet would not be able to withstand a few tosses from them.

It was clear that the ships were coming for themselves, for there was an acquaintance standing on the bow of the ship closest to them at this time.

The illegitimate son of King Langya, Zhao Song.

The illegitimate son held the carved gold dragon head on the bow of the boat with both hands, and looked directly at Chu Xianzhao and Shen Huayu, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised a trace of arc.

Chu Xianzhao glanced at Shen Huayu, whose face was becoming more and more pale, and said calmly: "Huayu, bring my sword." ”

At this moment, Lu Wei, who was resting in the cabin, also walked out, looked at the warship in front of him with solemn eyes, and said, "Who are they?"

Chu Xianzhao said in a stiff tone: "The people who had some festivals with us in Guhe City before, but they didn't expect to pester us. ”

Lu Qi suddenly changed color and said: "How can this be reasonable, even the boat of the court officials dares to stop." ”

The gentle temperament of Lu Wei inevitably became angry, and methodically commanded the guards to prepare weapons, if an ordinary water boat encountered such a warship, it would have been able to raise the flag and surrender, but Lu Wei took dozens of guards and several masters to escort him to Guhe City to see Shen Taisui, Shen Taisui said that Chu Xuanzhao's strength was not ordinarily strong, and he may not have the strength to fight.

Shen Huayu hurriedly trotted all the way to Chu Xianzhao and brought two swords, and then was taken by Lu Qi to take refuge in her hand.

Chu Xuanzhao looked up and saw Zhao Song with a hideous smile on his face and the sailors around him, looking at them condescendingly, the arrows in the arrow hole were ready, and they could turn their ship into a hornet's nest at any time.

Zhao Song laughed loudly across the lake and asked, "Do you want to ask me why I want to kill you?"

Chu Xianzhao said: "Does it make sense for a dead person to keep his promise?"

Zhao Song smashed the white porcelain wine glass in his hand with great force, the scar on his face that had just healed made him look quite hideous, and he screamed: "I didn't reveal your identity, at least not when you are alive." ”

Chu Xianzhao responded with a smile: "It doesn't matter, anyway, dead people can keep secrets, since you don't know what it means to accept it when you see it, then keep this secret for His Highness forever." ”

Zhao Song laughed rampantly: " I will accept it when I see it, but unfortunately I don't have this idea for you, I thought that you and Shen Huayu's little slut met in Pingshui, but I really didn't expect that Shen Taisui would personally come to the door to apologize to my mother, and specially let me forget what happened that day, the dignified governor of Guhe City will actually do this for you, presumably the Shen family must have an unsavory deal with you, now I can't let you go, I will personally mention your head to Luoyang City to Qinghuang to see, today I just want to drive you to a dead end, so that you can't escape!"

Chu Xianzhao looked directly into Zhao Song's eyes and said calmly: "Then don't regret it, what Lord Shen said is not wrong at all, I knew that there would be today, and I should have killed you at that time." ”

As soon as Zhao Song raised his hand, the golden dragon sailors on the six warships all came out of the boat, holding repeating bows and crossbows, and they only needed to gently pull the trigger to flood the longship in front of them with the crossbow arrows in their hands.

The guards and masters brought by Lu Kui were even more fearless, and their expressions were calm and drew their weapons, their eyes so disdainful.

They have followed Lu Qi for many years, and they have never seen any kind of wind and waves, and some of them are the top people in the masters of Sunset City, and winning more with less has long been a daily operation.

Zhao Song's eyes looked fiercely

The white-haired young man on the deck, he knew that there was a court official on the ship, and he also saw Shen Huayu on the boat, if he killed Chu Xuanzhao on this lake, then his Zhao Song's reputation would spread all over the Southern Continent countries, and even Emperor Qing would give him a thumbs up, not to mention his biological father King Langya, who had never had a chance to meet once a year.

In today's war, he may be able to get rid of the name of illegitimate child completely.

The so-called wealth and danger are sought, in addition to his own life, he doesn't care about the life or death of the people on this lake, and the sailors on the boat can be abandoned by him as an outcast, after all, he is named Zhao, as long as he can kill the prince of Yinguo, the entire Daqing Dynasty will be greatly encouraged and erase the shame of the battle of Concubine Pass.

This white-haired and purple-eyed Da Yin Shizi is his best stepping stone!

The others could only be aggrieved and accompany him on the road.

The astonishing thought crossed his mind, and he stretched out his thumb and wiped the corner of his mouth as if wiping away the non-existent blood.

"Take them down, whoever kills that white-headed ghost, Young Master Ben will be rewarded. ”

With Zhao Song's shout, the sailors drew their short knives and let out a roar, calling them all to kill them towards Chu Instantly.

Behind them, a rain of arrows shot like snow towards Chu Instantaneously summoned the group.

Chu Xuanzhao drew his sword in an instant, and the golden dragon sailors who tried to surround him only saw an extremely dazzling white light, and for some reason, the arrow rain in mid-air seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind, and it flew away in surprise and was cut in two.

Immediately afterwards, all the sailors who stood in front of Chu Xianzhao had a thin line of blood on their bodies.

As Chu Xuanzhao's sword retracted and returned to the sword, more slender blood lines appeared on their bodies.

Then those blood lines gradually widened, and then violently separated, and the sailors who rushed to Chu Xuanzhao's side first were still moving forward, and they could even be heard roaring.

But the next moment, the sound was gone.

Seven or eight sailors who were sprinting suddenly turned into a pile of spilled flesh, and this picture was extremely disgusting.

The people standing on the boat holding bows and crossbows looked at each other, and their hearts couldn't help but tremble, and they all saw a deep fear in the eyes of the other party.

As if they had been blown by a strong wind, the pile of flesh fell heavily on the sailors behind them, startling them, and they retreated a few steps back and accidentally bumped into the sailors who were about to board the ship behind, followed by a burst of falling water.

Chu Xianzhao held his sword in both hands, put on an offensive posture, and killed like a windmill.

Lu Qi's guards floated to Chu Xuanzhao's side like a gust of wind, silently drew their swords and used their sword qi to force back the people who were going to board the ship, all kinds of sword qi rose to the sky, and the shouts of killing sounded continuously on the boat.

Faced with this scene, Zhao Song yelled fiercely: "Find two boats to crash over, and knock the entire boat down for me." ”

Shen Huayu, who was hiding in the cabin and covering her ears, frowned, and her face was extremely worried.

Lu Qi looked at the worried Miss Shen, and smiled: "If you are afraid, you can hide in the cabin, His Royal Highness Chu's martial arts are strong and the guards I brought are very capable of fighting, and it is not enough to deal with the people of these ships——"

Before he finished speaking, a stray arrow shot in, which frightened Shen Huayu for a while.

Lu Song looked at the feather arrow that was stuck in the wooden wall and swayed, and smiled lightly: "If they can't do it, I can take action to deal with all of them at once, but the dragon slayer of Concubine Pass shouldn't even be able to control such a scene, right?"

The longboat shook for a while, Shen Huayu staggered a few steps and almost fell on Lu Qi, and after being held by Lu Qi's arm, he finally stabilized his footing, and said in a trembling voice: "If you have the ability, you can overturn a boat and show Miss Ben, you are not a swordsman who practices swords, and you are not ashamed to say such big things." ”

After she finished speaking, she took the sword in her hand out, and when she opened the hatch, scattered arrows came to her face, she subconsciously raised her sword to block, but there was no expected roar of gold and iron, and when she opened her eyes, she found that three stray arrows were suspended in front of her eyes, trembling.

"Miss Shen knows very little, there are all kinds of strange dynasties in the world, you don't necessarily have to be a swordsman to prove the Tao with martial arts, and a scholar can also master the power of heaven and earth. ”

Behind her, Lu Wei stretched out his right hand and spread his five fingers, and the abundant and vigorous righteousness in her heart and lungs was surging out endlessly.

Cultivating Confucianism is full of righteousness, and can borrow qi like the breath of a king, although Lu Wei's realm does not have the realm of Confucianism and Taoism sages who can summon the law and heaven and earth at will. Kill people at the exit and summon the thunder, but it is still easy to deal with a few golden dragon ships on the lake.

Lu Kui's right palm suddenly clenched into a fist, and the stray arrow in front of Shen Huayu's eyes suddenly broke, making her subconsciously exclaim.

Lu Qi laughed lightly, and his figure swept out of the cabin and floated on everyone's heads, and a circle of heroic righteousness swept away with him as the center.

Chu Xianzhao looked up at the formless and colorless qi machine, only to feel that the wind was coming, and the double swords were inserted above the deck before stopping.

A wave of Haoran True Qi suddenly formed a tornado-like qi machine, and a violent wind suddenly appeared on the surface of the water.

It's like a green dragon out of the water hitting a reef.

Pierce a golden dragon longship that is about to crash into them!
