Chapter 31: Trapping Strange Fish
"Okay, then let's go to the Purple Cloud Empire first!" Jin Mukui looked at the infinite rivers and mountains in front of him, and there was a heroic aura in his chest. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Xia Yun looked at the undulating mountains and mountains in front of him, and the corners of the city surrounded by boundless green forests were also exposed, as if he had opened a new world, and his heart was suddenly excited.
So the two of them found a way down the mountain.
Soon came to the bank of the "Shen Xing River".
At the top of the mountain, the river only looks a little wider than the palm of your hand, but when you get close to it, you find that the river is much wider than you imagined, and the distance between the two banks is hundreds of meters!
Across the river, I couldn't even see the scenery on the other side, and I could only vaguely see that the green was the woods, and the black and yellow was the ground.
Jin Mukui observed for a while, although the river was not turbulent on the surface, but he did not know the depth of the middle of the river, and said, "Let's go upstream along the river, maybe there is a bridge or a ferry!" ”。
The two of them continued to walk upstream along the river.
The further you go upstream, the narrower the river becomes, and the water gradually becomes clearer, and you can faintly see fish swimming inside.
The two of them fled all night at this time, and their nervous mood finally relaxed a lot, and Xia Yun was planning to sit by the river and wash his face.
Just as he was about to bend down, he suddenly saw a black thing floating from the center of the river, and I don't know what it was.
When the two of them looked more closely, they were shocked to find that it was a corpse.
"That's right!" Jin Mukui seemed to think of something: "I heard that this 'Shen Xing River', also known as the 'Shen Xing River', and the 'Yixi City' and the 'Valley of the Dead God' downstream are also known as the three major murderous places on the mainland. Every place is dominated by forces, and there is no end to the open and secret fighting. It could have been the corpses of the slain slaves that they threw directly into the river. ”
"Slaves? Aren't slaves human? Xia Yun thought about the slaves he had let go of in Yixi City, and what kind of fate he would have now.
"There's no way, this world is the law of the jungle, and the slavery system has been on the continent for hundreds of years, and who can change it? Just like two months ago, I heard that in Yixi City, a slave trader was killed by his men, and hundreds of slaves escaped that night, but what is the use of escaping? But a few days later, he was caught by another slave trader and continued to be a slave, this is the fate of slaves! Jin Mukui shook his head and sighed.
"The fate of slaves?" Xia Yun watched thoughtfully as the corpse rose and fell in the water, following the water flow downstream and drifting downstream, when suddenly a huge black shadow in the distance jumped out of the water, immediately sank again, and then rushed towards the corpse at a very fast speed, bringing a splash all the way.
Both of them stared in surprise at the huge black shadow that suddenly appeared in the water, not knowing what kind of big fish or monster it was, and in a moment they arrived near the corpse, watching the corpse sink down and disappear.
Jin Mukui hurriedly pulled Xia Yun away from the riverbank.
"Brother Jin, do you know what that is?" Xia Yun looked at Jin Mukui, who was also suspicious.
Jin Mukui shook his head and said, "A fierce place is a fierce place, I really can't relax for a moment!" I've never seen this thing before, but it's so big, it should be a big fish? But this freshwater river shouldn't have fish of this size. Let's not stay here for long, I don't think it's safe here! ”
So the two of them dismissed the idea of washing their faces and continued to walk up the river.
After walking a short distance, the river became narrower, only a dozen meters wide, and the water flow became slower, and I saw a few people on the bank of the river from a distance, and they also carried a cage to the river.
When the two saw this, they immediately hid, wanting to see what the group was doing.
I only vaguely heard a man dressed in red who seemed to be the leader say, "Quick, this position is almost there!" Hurry up, grab that thing today, we don't have to worry about drinking and eating meat this month! It's a few of you who have been hooked for a while, but you guys are all smart, don't let it bite the rope and run away before you even got ashore like last time! ”
"Don't worry, boss." One of the thin, short men said to him as he carried the cage.
Xia Yun guessed that they might be trying to catch the huge black monster they saw just now, and when they looked at the cage again, they found that it was actually a child in the cage, with a hand sticking out of the cage, looking only seven or eight years old, crying in a low voice.
"These people are so cruel, how can they use living people as bait?" Xia Yun clenched his fists angrily, and was about to go up to stop them.
"Look at the word 'slave' on his hand. It should be ....." Before Jin Mukui's words were finished, Xia Yun had already run over, shouting at them as he ran: "Stop!" ”
That group of people heard someone behind them coldly, and immediately drew their swords vigilantly and looked at Xia Yun and them.
Seeing that it was two tattered clothes, a teenage child, and the other was covered in blood, like a young man with a serious injury that had not healed, he felt that there was no threat, and they both relaxed and continued to move the cage.
"Where did the little Hanako come from? Don't delay the uncles to do their business? Get out of here. The leader glanced at Xia Yun unremittingly, and waved the sword in his hand again.
Xia Yun ignored his warning, and still stepped forward and said, "How can you use a living person as bait, that's a human life!" Are you not human? ”
I saw the man in red with a wide head, goldfish eyes, a face full of horizontal meat, and a boss with staring eyes, looking at Xia Yun angrily, and then drew his sword and said: "Boy, if you don't go away and delay the livelihood of the masters, we will throw you into the river to feed the fish!" ”
The little slave in the cage saw a glimmer of hope in his tearful eyes at this time, and looked at Xia Yun pitifully, he seemed to know his next fate, stretched out his thin and small hand, and cried and shouted to them: "Help me, I'm afraid!" ”
Jin Mukui also came close at this time, staring at the person opposite, as if he was going to fight hard.
"Boss....", one of the men carrying the cage shouted at Goldfisheye.
"Get out of the way!" Goldfish Eyes didn't care about Xia Yun, so he ran first.
At this time, I only heard the sound of a splash in my ears.
The men quickly threw off their cages and ran away from the riverbank.
Xia Yun looked at the surface of the river, and there was a huge black shadow under the water, like a small mountain, only a dorsal fin like fish scales appeared on the surface of the water, and it moved towards them when it cut through the water.
Seeing those people fleeing, Xia Yun was about to go up and untie the cage.
I saw that the cage was made of metal, and there was a lock on it, and there were several H-colored ropes attached to it, and the ropes were fixed to the ground.
Several people watched Xia Yun walk to the edge of the cage and untie the cage, all of them hated itchy, but they were afraid of the water monster, so they didn't dare to step forward, and scolded while running: "Little madman, don't die?" The fish monster is coming! ”
Jin Mukui also saw that the black shadow flew to the shore, and stretched out his hand on two steps.
Wow!
Suddenly, the water splashed, flying up more than ten meters high, and in the sun, it fell to the shore in a colorful way.
Then, a dark shadow obscured the sky.
Xia Yun felt the water drops fall on his face and was about to look.
Jin Mukui took a step faster, grabbed Xia Yun's arm, pulled it back, and pounced himself.
