Chapter 306: Ghosts in Sight
What is Gu Piaoran going to do when he suddenly withdraws?
Shortly after the thought crossed my mind, I heard the sound of a flap clattering from the ship. Just a few seconds later, the outside of the Tiangong mirror was completely covered with seawater, and the temperature in the cabin suddenly dropped by a few degrees.
I couldn't help but blurt out, "We dived? ”
The sailor said, "The Hidden Dragon, you can dive into the water in a short time. However, it is impossible to dive deeper than 10 meters, and at most you will float up after diving about 50 meters in the water. ”
Ten meters of diving, fifty meters of sneaking, isn't that just enough to break out of the encirclement of the hell gate? Gu Piaoran has already calculated the way out?
I was stunned for a moment, when the hull of the Hidden Dragon suddenly tilted, and its head and tail shot out of the water like sharp arrows to the surface. As soon as the hull of the Qianlong was flattened, it rushed to the direction of due north as fast as it could.
Before I could figure out what was going on, an earth-shattering explosion was heard near the Hidden Dragon. I quickly looked out through the Tiangong Mirror, but I couldn't see anything clearly outside except for the white splash of water, and the only thing I knew for sure was that Blood Impermanence was attacking the Hidden Dragon with firearms.
I asked urgently, "Are there any heavy firearms on board?" ”
The sailor shook his head and said, "Big brother, this is domestic, where can we get heavy weapons?" To be able to hide a gun is a huge risk. You can rest assured, they also don't have many heavy firearms. ”
Gu Piaoran did not have firearms, I believe; The hell gate occupies an underground fortification, can they do without firearms? As long as the ship could only withstand it, they could even bring field guns on board.
Before I could speak, I heard two loud bangs behind me, and the hull of the Hidden Dragon tilted abruptly, and it was almost overturned. Fortunately, the helmsman controlled the ship in time, and the Qianlong sped away again.
I could tell from the Tiangong mirror that the Qianlong was speeding forward in the dense artillery fire, and although it narrowly avoided the shells several times, it could not get out of the precarious situation.
If this continues, maybe at some point the Hidden Dragon will be overturned by artillery fire and fall into the sea and become a real Hidden Dragon.
As soon as I was about to move my body and get up from the cabin, the sailor next to me said, "Get out quickly, the mechanism is activated, the bottom compartment is about to be deformed, and if we don't leave, we will be squeezed to death." ”
I don't believe his words. Even if the bottom of the ship could be deformed, it would not be enough to squeeze a few of us to death. The sailor just didn't want us to see something.
Although I was curious, I couldn't casually snoop on the secrets of the rumor, so I could only follow him to the cabin.
When I appeared in the cabin out of thin air, I startled the people in the cabin. The tomb robber Lao Qiao turned his head and shouted, "Wu Zhao, you still have the face to stay here!" If it weren't for you......"
"If you don't want to die, shut up." I pulled out the rakshasa without waiting for the other party to finish, and Old Joe knew that it was not my opponent, so he was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.
Gu Piaoran shouted sharply: "Hold on to everything, we are going to enter the secret realm." ”
As the people in the cabin turned to look for something to hold onto, I quickly looked at the front and back of the Dragon.
Directly in front of the Hidden Dragon, a reef that looked like a pillar of heaven had appeared. Through the gaps between the reefs, I could probably see that behind the reef was a strangely shaped stone forest, but behind the stone forest it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything clearly.
Behind the Dragon, I don't know when two herringbone waves swelled, and at first glance it looked like two surging tides were converging behind the boat, and the tops overlapped in our direction.
Although the momentum of the tide is not huge, I can faintly feel that the tide contains an extremely terrifying power, and once I let it approach, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable.
In a short moment, the herringbone was close to the hell gate ship chasing after us, and after only a few breaths, the large boat on the left was swept into the air by the tide, flipping head to tail. Most of the sailors on the ship fell into the water, and some clung to the ship's guardrails. The desperately struggling crowd was soon caught upside down in the water by the flying hull, and in just a breath, even the boat and its crew disappeared.
In less than a minute, a large ship and dozens of sailors disappeared in front of us in front of us, and even the screams before death were drowned out in the waves, and anyone who saw it would shudder.
The masters of the Hell Gate, who were frantically pursuing us just now, all stopped their movements in an instant, and looked at the surging tide behind them in shock.
Blood Impermanence shouted sharply: "Go all out, don't let the tide catch up!" ”
In fact, even without the command of blood impermanence, the two big ships are moving at full strength. They hadn't slowed down since they were chasing the Dragon, but now the big ship was a little more rushed to escape.
The Gates of Hell were running for their lives, and the Hidden Dragon was speeding forward, but the sea water surging from behind us picked up speed in an instant, and we were desperate to chase after it.
As I watched the tide get closer and closer, I couldn't help but look back in front of the Hidden Dragon.
The stone forest in front of us had become clearer and clearer, and the two huge pillars of heaven were like two stone doors in front of us. If the Qianlong does not change direction, let alone the wooden Qianlong, even if it comes to an ironclad ship, it will be smashed to pieces and the ship will be destroyed.
I was about to remind Gu Piaoran, but the latter suddenly shouted: "Turn the rudder, rush back!" ”
I was immediately taken aback by Gu Piaoran's order. Turning the rudder now, isn't that tantamount to self-defeat? Unexpectedly, the sailors on the Qianlong turned the direction without hesitation, and manipulated the Qianlong to crash head-on into the bloody car.
"Hide!" In the midst of the hoarse shouts of Blood Impermanence, the two large ships moved their bows at the same time. Like a big fish swimming close to the water, the Qianlong rushed between the two boats, grazing the side of the other ship and rushing away in the direction of the tide.
At the moment when the three big boats were staggered with each other, Blood Impermanence suddenly shouted: "Jump ship!" Jump on their boat! ”
The masters of the Hell Gate flew up in an instant, and one after another flew down to the two sides of the Hidden Dragon. Blood Impermanence even smashed the hatch with one palm and rushed directly into the cabin.
Ye Shen and I got up at the same time and swung our knives and slashed in the direction of the impermanence. The two sword lights that crossed in one place instantly sealed the path of blood impermanence, forcing the other party to retreat to its original position. The sword qi that the two of us slashed with a wave of our hands smashed through the door of the cabin in an instant, and rushed out of the cabin in pursuit of the impermanence.
Blood Impermanence suddenly rushed onto the boat, it was already unstable, and it was blocked by me and Ye Ash, except for retreating again and again, there was no way to fight back, as long as the two of us stabbed again, it was enough to shoot Blood Impermanence down the ship. But just as the two of us were about to make a move, a dark cloud-like shadow suddenly rose behind the Hidden Dragon. By the time I looked up, the waves had already crossed the ship's side.
"Hurry back!" I couldn't care about chasing and killing the blood impermanence anymore, so I hurriedly pulled Ye Shen back to the cabin.
As soon as the two of us retreated, the masters of the Hell Gate also poured into the cabin in an instant, and the cabin, which was still quite spacious, suddenly became crowded. Ye Ember and I were surrounded in the middle by the masters of the Hell Gate, and the blood impermanence that bore the brunt was even less than a knife away from the two of us, as long as he raised his hand, a knife was enough to pierce the blood impermanence's body.
Just as I was about to make a move, Gu Piaoran shouted: "If you don't want to die, don't move!" ”
No sooner had I forcibly suppressed the urge to kill than two wing-like planks stretched out from either side of the Dragon.
Gu Piaoran shouted again: "Twenty steps back!" ”
The Qianlong, which was still rushing in, suddenly turned the bow into the stern, and after rushing backwards for a distance of about 20 meters, the waves that had been lapping on the ship fell into the sea close to the bow of the ship, and the hull of the Qianlong was also lifted into an oblique angle.
Gu Piaoran didn't wait for the Hidden Dragon to stop, so he shouted urgently: "Rush forward!" ”
At this time, the Hidden Dragon suddenly rushed forward and rushed straight in the direction where the waves fell. Just moments later, the Hidden Dragon was lifted into the air by the waves. The whole ship, except for Gu Piaoran, all of them involuntarily let out an exclamation.
What no one expected was that the Qianlong would float smoothly in the air under the support of the waves, gliding straight towards the two stone pillars not far away.
I understand!
Gu Piaoran had said before that if he staggered the last few days, he was afraid that he would have to wait five years before he could re-enter the secret burial. When he speaks of five years later, he is referring to the strange tide that chases behind us.
We knew that there should be a sea full of strange rocks behind the stone pillar, but the Hidden Dragon couldn't pass through the gap between the stone pillars, so he could only rely on the tide to lift him from above the stone pillar and fly into the secret burial sea.
The tides, the Hidden Dragon, the timing of the tides, as long as one thing is not grasped well, we will all be swept into the sea, and there will be no place to die. No wonder Gu Piaoran had to rush into the sea at this time.
These thoughts flashed through my mind, and the bat-like Hidden Dragon was already close to the tips of the two stone pillars.
Just when I thought that the Qianlong could fly smoothly over the stone pillar, the whole hull was like a kite with a broken string, although it was still gliding, it had suddenly sunk a little.
My first reaction was: the Hidden Dragon is overloaded!
Originally, there were not so many people on the Hidden Dragon, but more than thirty people jumped up on the two ships of the Hell Gate, and their own weight plus the blades they carried with them did not press the Hidden Dragon floating on the water into the sea, but once the ship was empty, it was difficult to bear the weight of so many people.
Old Joe, the tomb robber, shouted, "The ship is too sinking, and people must be thrown down!" ”
His words suddenly made the entire cabin tense, and everyone looked at the enemy or companion around them with bad intentions.
