Chapter 81-1: Cannon Fodder (I)
An Yuanxi and four iron guards searched the docks and beaches. The canopy ferry carried me farther and farther, I bit my lower lip, stared at An Yuanxi, looked at their figures farther and farther away, and there was only despair left in my heart, do I still have to pass by you today?
An Yuanxi's eyes swept in my direction, he seemed to see me, my heart suddenly surged to my throat, my lips opened, and I wanted to shout for help, but I forgot that I couldn't make any sound at all. But his gaze paused only slightly on my face, and then he turned away, and I felt like someone had poured a bucket of cold water, and my whole body was cold. He doesn't recognize me either? Is Momiji's disguise really so clever? Can transfiguration change people's eyes? I thought that I had gone through so many things between him and I, and I had developed a tacit understanding that I didn't need to speak, and when I used to deal with the family business, many times it was just a look, and the two sides could understand each other's intentions. But it wasn't like that, what he recognized was just my skin.
My eyes were hot, I didn't understand why, my throat was blocked, and my heart was so sad that I wanted to cry. Stygian Flame didn't recognize me, I only felt anxious and annoyed, but why was I so uncomfortable when I found out that An Yuanxi couldn't recognize me? I watched in amazement as he stood on the shore searching for a figure, tears slowly welling up from my eyes, and even though I knew they were looking for me, my heart was a little cold, and I slowly fell into the deep pool, feeling as if I had been abandoned by the whole world.
An Yuanxi searched around the shore, found nothing, and looked at the fishing boats and merchant ships on the sea, I saw him pointing to the sea and asking a village woman who was mending fishing nets, the fisherwoman didn't know what to answer, An Yuanxi's eyes looked at the ferry carrying me again, hurriedly swept my face, and looked at a few ferries next to me. I had lost any hope, and as the canopy ferry drew closer and closer to the merchant ship, I looked at him blankly and let tears roll down my cheeks. An Yuanxi, who had already looked away, seemed to be stunned for a moment, turned his head suddenly, and his gaze was locked tightly on my face. There seemed to be a flash of surprise in his eyes, and his brow furrowed tightly, staring into my eyes. My heart moved slightly, did he find me? The silent and cold heart seemed to begin to warm faintly again, but the tears rolled down like beads with broken threads, and I stared fixedly into his eyes, his brows stretched and immediately frowned, and his eyes were immediately diluted with surprise and anger. My tears fell faster and faster, but a smile welled up on my lips. Who is he? Chu Yan? An Yuanxi? Unzaki? Or it's all him, or it's not him, so what does it matter? All I know is that he recognized me, when I was most desperate and helpless, when no one else recognized me, he recognized me, and only he recognized me.
An Yuanxi rushed towards the dock, and when the iron guard saw him suddenly rushing away, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately followed. An Yuanxi...... My heart beat fast, as if I had grown wings and followed in his footsteps, the hope of regaining my freedom was at hand, and I could not help but tremble with great joy. Suddenly, I heard Momiji say behind him: "Ninja Liu, carry her on board." "I was shocked, I saw the man who carried me on the ferry came to carry me, only to find that the ferry had leaned next to the big merchant ship, I was in a hurry, the merchant ship was already far away from the wharf, An Yuanxi's figure stood on the long causeway of the wharf like an ant, the key is that there is no ferry at the wharf, how did he come? At such a distance, no matter how good the light work is, it can't fly.
I saw An Yuanxi slash the wooden stake of the ferry on the pier with one palm, and the stake flew out of the air, falling to the sea in the distance with a "bang", splashing snow-white waves. At the same time, I stomped hard under my feet, and the wooden planks laid on the causeway bounced like popcorn that had been exploded. He picked up pieces of wood off the ground with his feet, quickly and coherently clamped them under his armpits, and with a volley of his body, he was already standing on the stake that he had just struck on the surface of the sea, and at the same time threw a piece of the plank out of his hand, and his body jumped up again, and pointed on the plank he had thrown out, becoming a lever for him to move forward in the water. Planks flew out one after another, An Yuanxi quickly jumped close on the sea, chased towards the canopy ferry, and the iron guard behind him followed the same example, stepping on the planks he stepped on to catch up. Red Leaf said loudly: "Ninja three, forbearance seven, bring someone to intercept him!" ”
Shinobu Roku carried me on his back and quickly climbed onto the merchant ship, throwing me on the deck, my body was soft, I could no longer see the situation on the sea, I raised my eyes to see Momiji also climbed onto the boat, I looked at her in a daze, Momiji glanced at me, and said to Shinobu Roku: "Prepare to sail!" ”
Shinobu Roku turned his head and quickly said a series of words to some of the sailors on the deck that I didn't understand, it should be the language of the Red Sayings, it sounded a little like the language of my time and space. The sailors moved quickly, some lifting anchors, others raising sails. I observed that the sailors, all of whom were not tall, knew that they were all from the Red Kingdom, and that this was not a serious merchant ship at all, but a spy ship of the Red Kingdom. Seeing that the sails have been fully raised, and the merchant ships seem to have some fluctuations, I am in a hurry, I can't see the situation on the sea, I don't know if An Yuanxi has caught up with him, was he stumped by those Hongyue Guo Annihilation who intercepted him?
Seeing that my eyes were anxious, Momiji reached out and clicked on my dumb: "Are you worried about him?" ”
I glared at her viciously, and Momiji smiled faintly: "He can't save you, you persuade him to go back, otherwise your life will be in vain." With that, he grabbed my arm, lifted me up, and leaned me on the side of the boat. I hurriedly looked in the direction of the pier, and saw An Yuanxi and the iron guards on the sea in a thrilling way to avoid the powerful crossbows fired by the Red Nation on the canopy ferry, and while churning and jumping, they had to keep throwing planks to continue to chase. The two black-canopy ferries rowed towards An Yuanxi and them, and the densely woven crossbow arrows shot at them one after another, An Yuanxi and Tie Wei originally relied on the wooden planks floating on the sea to chase the ferry, this method was extremely exhausting internal force, plus they had to pay attention to dodge the crossbow arrows that came from them, and it was even more dangerous. The wind was blowing on the sea, the sails of the merchant ships were completely full, and I felt that the merchant ships were moving very fast, and in a few moments we were distancing ourselves from the canopy ferries on the sea. Although An Yuanxi and the others were about to catch up with the black canopy ferry, they were farther away from the big boat. The sound of the crossbow breaking through the air and the sound of the waves and the wind sounded extremely dangerous, the wind and waves were strong, the planks floating on the sea swayed left and right, Yun Yu narrowly avoided a crossbow arrow, the crossbow arrow grazed his shoulder, his body trembled, but when he fell, he did not step on the plank, and fell into the sea.
"Ah......h In the blink of an eye, another crossbow shot at Yunkan, who had just jumped from a plank, and he flipped over and fell straight into the sea.
