Chapter 646: The Big Shark
Once you have a partner, especially a like-minded partner, the journey will be much easier. At this moment, not only Xu Ning, but even Xia Long was full of curiosity about the road ahead.
Time flies quickly.
"Brother Xu Ning, what do you think when you see such a vast water world?"
An enthusiastic Sharon asked while lying on the deck, looking at the bright galaxy overhead. Xu Ning also drank a little more wine, leaning on the side of the boat to blow the wind, when he was close to the sea, the wind was very different, cool but with a hint of restlessness.
"I feel terrible, I don't feel as happy as I had at the beginning." Xu Ning rubbed his face and said.
"Oh, why?" Sharon sat up and asked.
"After all, we are human beings and not fish, and in our familiar environment, even if we encounter a big crisis, we can think of solutions very autonomously. Now we haven't reached the ocean yet, just before entering the sea, and we're already a little dazed. With such a large surface of water, if there is really any crisis, there is no place to stay! ”
Xu Ning said, stroking the hull of the Qiangmu boat, and his expression became stern.
"No, Brother Xu Ning, your ability will definitely not be afraid of who is around! I heard that the martial cultivators of the Dongzhou Empire have basically practiced secret arts, even if their attributes are not good, they have also practiced flying martial arts. ”
"I believe that people can reach their highest potential under the instinct of survival, but the fear in the heart cannot be overcome. You may not understand this when I say this, after all, you are originally from the land of water. There is a natural familiarity with water. I've seen your skills, standing on water is about the same as standing on land. ”
"No, Brother Xu Ning, you're wrong." Xia Long smiled and said, "That's right, as the common people of the Water Country, the people of our Jiangxia tribe do have a little ability to control the water element, but that requires very harsh conditions. Isn't it strange to you that we have suffered so much loss. Why not move somewhere else? This is because we only adapt to the relationship between the properties of the water element on one side. ”
"Not really. You mean you can't harness the water element right now? Xu Ning was a little surprised.
"Of course I can control it, but it's not as easy as living in our time, and when I actually go to sea, my ability is even weaker. Skills on the surface may not be as good as skills underwater! ”
"Actually, I've always been weird. You people of the tribe of the Land of Water. In addition to the genes and bloodline factors that are naturally inherited, what kind of exercises can be cultivated to control the water element so exaggeratedly? ”
"I can't say that either. Anyway, since we were born, we have been taught by our elders to learn all kinds of so-called exercises. In the beginning, adults would throw us into a large vat full of water one by one, eat and sleep in it, and soak off several layers of skin on our bodies, and when we get through this stage, we will find that we are like magnets, and the water element in the air is like iron sand, and when we need to gather, the action of the body's natural power will be produced. ”
"Maybe it's just a matter of course!" Xu Ning sighed and said, "I didn't appear in the martial arts when I was a child, and I didn't enter the Ding Pawn Realm until I was fifteen years old!" ”
Thinking of this, Xu Ning suddenly remembered his sister Xu Lan again, five or six years have passed, and the two sisters and brothers have made an appointment to look for their father's whereabouts on the mainland, but their father's whereabouts have not been found, and there is no news between them. But fortunately, most of the people I care about are safe now.
Don't worry about Rashomon, at present, in the Dongzhou Empire and even the entire Soul Continent, there are probably not many people who dare to provoke Rashomon, because it was originally a huge combination of interests. Although there are many contradictions, people understand that only by uniting together can they not be bullied.
The five major families in Qingfeng City can also be regarded as united, and with the secret dream Yunju, the power is also very huge. After the backyard is safe, Xu Ning will not have any worries when he goes out, and he will do things freely. The sooner you finish the matter, you can see the next step of the exhibition.
But what are the specific goals? This question also made him very entangled.
The experience in the Jiangxia tribe further strengthened Xu Ning's confidence, on this continent, if you want to complete your plan, the strength of one person is absolutely not enough, no matter how powerful you are! Ten people are not your opponents, a hundred people are not your opponents, so what about a thousand people, ten thousand people?
Besides, you can't kill all your opponents in order to achieve your goals!
The approach of the Dongzhou Empire may not be very bright, but its existence has indeed made many people settled, which is the same as Xu Ning's idea in some places. Because of this, he didn't release the shady scenes of those evils in one go, otherwise, it would have been a mess a long time ago.
Some things are better to be dusted forever.
"Brother Xu Ning, what are you sighing for!" Sharon asked curiously.
"Oh, nothing, you said we'll be able to reach the mouth of the sea tomorrow, right?"
"Yes, the entrance to the sea is not that simple, and it is not possible to get to guò in a moment. As far as I know, there should be fifty or sixty miles of waterways at the mouth of the sea where we pass through Guò, and it has been foggy all year round. Sharon said and looked at the sky, "You can only determine the direction by the stars in the sky." ”
What will never change in the sky is the sign of the Big Dipper, which is also the most basic knowledge of navigators.
"Well, it's really not possible, I can also use Thunder Feather's flying skills to guide the way."
"Hehe, Brother Xu Ning, don't be weird, I'm not laughing at you." Xia Long smiled and said, "It's okay to use the flying martial art to escape, but if you plan to use it for navigation, it's simply impossible." Although the waterway of fifty or sixty miles is not long, once the dense fog appears, even the close proximity may not be able to see anything. ”
"Isn't the light of thunder and lightning okay?"
"The power of nature has no use at all, so let's follow the mysterious power of the underworld." Sharon said.
"What is this power you are talking about?"
"The estuary is where the freshwater river of the Soul Continent merges into the sea, so his flow speed is very steady, although it is slow, but it will never stop. After entering the estuary, let the boat drift on its own, without interfering, and at the same time keep looking at the Big Dipper in the sky to prevent yourself from getting lost and unconsciously affecting the ship. In less than half a day, the ship will leave on its own in the fog. ”
"Half a day?" Xu Ning frowned, the night sky was still clear at the moment, although it was only a crescent moon, but there was still a little sense of relief.
"There is no way around it, there are some things that cannot be violated by manpower."
As he was talking, suddenly the Qiangmu boat shook violently, and then it was calm again.
Xu Ning was startled and almost fell off the side of the ship.
"What's going on?"
"Don't be nervous, Brother Xu Ning, you should have touched something underwater." Sharon was also a little nervous.
"Is it a reef?"
"Probably not, reefs are all found in straits or on the coast, how can there be here? Also, if it's a reef, it shouldn't disappear immediately, and you'll run into something else. ”
"What's that? Strange! Xu Ning jumped on the bow of the boat and stared at the dark water.
"Maybe it's big fish or something, because this place is a place where sea water and fresh water meet, and when the tide is high, the big fish in the sea will swim to the inland river, and now the tide has fallen at night, and it is estimated that they will return to the sea after the high tide tomorrow."
"Really?" Xu Ning didn't know why in his heart, he always felt very uneasy. He stared at the water surface and observed carefully, and under the reflection of the moonlight, slowly, a huge human face appeared on the water surface below the bow of the ship!
"Uncle, what the hell!"
Xu Ning didn't even think about it, and a burst of qi burst out from the palm of his hand and hit the water directly! That big face shattered!
"What's going on?!"
"I see a human face!"
"Oh, no!"
Sharon suddenly became nervous, jumped up, pulled out his water splitting spur from his waist, and lay nervously on the side of the ship. The ship that had been sailing slowly came to a halt, and the sails were blown by the wind, but it could not move forward!
"Sharon, is this also some kind of big fish?!"
"It's impossible for a fish to have a human face, unless it's ......"
Before Xia Long's surprised expression was finished, the penetration of the Qiang wooden boat suddenly flipped over, and a huge pitch-black figure leaped out of the water! In the moonlight, on top of the two thick arms, there was a diamond-shaped human head, and a mouthful of fangs glittered in the night! The upper body itself still looks like a person, but the lower body is actually a fish!
"Unless it's ...... Shark people! ”
"What the hell is that!" Xu Ning looked at the monster that leaped up in front of him in surprise, and forgot to take out the coiled dragon sword to defend himself, but fortunately, his reaction was still very fast, and when the huge figure of the merman pressed down, the Gang Qi electric fireball brewed in his palm shot left and right!
"Boom!" The electric fireball slammed into the merman's body, and he quickly retreated backwards in the air!
"It's not so unlucky, before you enter the estuary, you ran into this kind of monster!"
"What the hell?" Xu Ning couldn't help but ask.
Xia Long pointed at the splash and said, "Brother Xu Ning, haven't you heard of mermaids?" (To be continued......)
