Chapter 67: The River Demon

Out of the Fallen Leaf City, go south for about 300 miles, and you will arrive at the Yuyang River Wharf.

The Yuyang River is very old, and it is said that since the founding of the Yuan Ling, the first thing the ancestors did was to build the Yuyang River. This turbulent long river leads directly to the east and west, and you can take the waterway, and you can reach the western water town in less than half a month.

Mo Yanxi and his entourage got on a big boat heading to the water town.

"Do the math, my eldest brother and they should go around the mountain, and then get on the boat on the next pier, five or six days faster than us."

Su Changfeng stood on the board of the ship and counted the days.

As he spoke, the ship lifted anchor and sailed away, and the merchant ship began to shake violently, and the waves surged, and from time to time there was the sound of water splashing against the reef.

Nan Ke felt dizzy, his feet didn't touch the ground at all, and he drank a bowl of lotus seed porridge when he got on the boat just now, and it all reached his throat at this time.

"Miss...... I'm not sick. How do you look vague, there are several. ”

Nan Ke tilted his head, his steps jumping wildly, and his blood swayed with the boat.

Su Changfeng saw that her face was pale and her eyes were red, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help her: "It should be seasick, I'll take her to the room to rest and rest." ”

"Okay, I'll be here later."

Mo Yanxi said, watching Su Changfeng help Nan Ke in, and then turned his head to look at the wind fan on the deck who was jumping long against the railing.

Mo Yanxi stabilized his body and walked over cautiously, looking at the past from here, the water and sky were the same color, the breeze was gentle, mixed with a trace of coldness between heaven and earth, and his vision instantly widened. At a glance, the mountain is the mountain, the sky is the sky, and the water is the water, which is clear and clear, without the slightest confusion.

"There will be times when you ride the wind and waves, and you will sail straight to the sea. One day we will be like this, galloping in the martial arts, no one stops. ”

Feng Qifan listened, blinked his eyes, and said: "Actually, I don't have any ambitions, I asked my mother before, why the Feng family is not like other martial arts sects, far away from the market, she said that living in that kind of place, all day is a day of licking blood on the tip of the knife, human life is like water, today they call each other brothers, tomorrow they can turn their faces and deny people, there is no benevolence and righteousness." ”

Mo Yanxi sighed: "Don't talk about martial arts, it's not easy to live anywhere, this martial arts has the cold-blooded martial arts, and the market also has the rules of the market, in the final analysis, they are all people who are affected by fate and can't help themselves." ”

"That's right, now that the Feng family is gone, I just realized that no matter where you are, you are inseparable from your roots, even if you hide at the ends of the earth, you will not break free. is the life of licking blood at the tip of a knife, and he will not live in peace in this life. ”

Feng Qifan said, and took out the small porcelain bottle from her arms: "When my mother was still alive, she always told me a lot of travelogues, what she liked was never the stability in the courtyard of a deep house, nor the life of killing people in the martial arts, what she liked was the sky high and the clouds, the mountains and lakes, like a ranger. Since she married into the Feng family, this has all gone away. Now let her live forever with the breeze and white clouds, green waters and green mountains. ”

After that, the wind opened the bottle, and the ashes inside poured out like cotton, flying with the wind, and from then on, there was her existence in these four seas.

"It should be Yaotai Fengchi, but it's not up to anyone."

The sun gradually deflected, eventually turning fiery red. The entire sky, the blue sea, and the mountains in the distance were dyed fiery red.

"If it's cold today, you wear thin clothes, stand in the windward outlet and be careful of getting cold."

Su Changqing walked to Yingniang's side and reminded him loudly.

Sakura Niang owed a debt and said with a smile: "I have been used to going south and north since I was a child, the cold and heat, no matter how bad the weather is, I have experienced it, although it is a little harder, I have also practiced a good body, where is it so delicate, and it will not work when the wind blows?" ”

"Miss Sakura is quite disciplined, and she looks steady and dignified on weekdays, but she really doesn't look like it. However, if you don't have a little bit of experience in doing business, you can't do it. ”

Su Changqing praised it all over, and Ying Niang blushed: "Master Su praised it falsely, what we are doing is just a small business, where can it compare to the Su family, and now I am afraid that it will soon become a business that covers the sky with one hand." If you really want to talk about doing business, you still win a lot. ”

The last rays of the sun's light disappeared, and several glass lamps were lit on the ship, which looked brilliant from a distance, and even the surface of the river shone brightly.

As the two were talking, suddenly the merchant ship shook violently, like the waves of the sea were trying to overturn the ship.

Ying Niang was unstable and fell straight into Su Changqing's arms.

For a moment, the two didn't know what to say, and they were silent with each other.

After a while, the merchant ship shook violently again, attracting the attention of many people.

Su Changqing squinted and looked into the distance, only to see that far away from the boat, the water surface was calm, and there was no surging at all.

"No, there's a problem, Miss Sakura, you go in first, stay with Mingsang, I'll take a closer look."

Seeing Su Changqing's serious face, Ying Niang nodded without delay, got up to leave, and then turned her head and added: "Be careful in everything." ”

Su Changqing cautiously crossed the deck and poked his head out to look at the water.

The waves on the surface of the water were so turbulent that it looked like a big fish was rolling underneath.

Suddenly, a trace of silver light hit Su Changqing's eyes, and Su Changqing immediately turned sideways to dodge.

When I looked back, I found that there was an eagle claw hook firmly hanging on the side of the boat, and a long rope fell from the bottom, leading to the bottom of the river.

Su Changqing secretly felt that something was wrong, and vigilantly observed the movements around him.

With a cup of tea, the eagle claw hook tightened, and it seemed that something was climbing up the rope, because the sky was dark, Su Changqing didn't see what it was at all.

A quarter of an hour later, Su Changqing hurriedly entered the room, closed the door and said to the three people waiting here: "I don't see the situation right, let's retreat to the bottom floor first, where the goods are stacked, hide first." ”

When everyone heard this, they nodded again and again, simply packed up some things, and prepared to go out.

Suddenly, there was a strange sound at the door, it seemed that the door of the wing room was opened, and a frightened shout broke through the sky, followed by a sound of tearing flesh and skin, and a stream of warm blood splashed at the door of Su Changqing and his party.

Su Changqing made a silent action, everyone held their breath, the footsteps outside the house were chaotic, and occasionally there were bursts of screams for help, and the people on the boat panicked and fled in all directions. Su Changqing: They didn't know what was going on.

"The River Demon is here! The river demon eats people! The river demon eats people! The River Demon is coming! ”

A rickety figure suddenly appeared at the door, and the whole person trembled forward, and kept muttering strange words in his mouth.

Suddenly, a figure ran from the opposite side, stretched out his long nails and grabbed forward, penetrating the throat of the rickety old man. Immediately after that, in front of everyone, the figure began to bite the flesh on the old man's body, and blood splattered everywhere.

The smell of blood came to her face instantly, and Sakura Niang hurriedly covered her mouth, for fear of making a little noise.

Suddenly, the wind blew from the window, blowing a candle on the table to the ground, and the strange figure outside the door paused, then let go of the old man and came towards them.

Five bloodstained black nails that were six or seven inches long came out of the crack in the door of the wing, and the wooden door came in response, and everyone saw the true face of the figure clearly.

The thing looked like a man in the prime of life, with white and sparse hair, grayish-white eyes, chapped skin all over his body, and dry skin hanging from the exposed parts. There are blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and the nails on his hands are particularly long, and they look very sharp.

Sakura Niang only felt that her legs were weak and she couldn't stand up straight. This thing walked in with a shake, and at a glance saw Su Changqing standing behind the wooden pillar, and rushed directly towards him without thinking.

Su Changqing hurriedly picked up the long sword on the table and stabbed at the thing, but the skin of this thing looked festering, but it seemed to have become some strange object, no matter how hard Su Changqing tried, he couldn't penetrate it.

"This ......... What the hell is this monster! ”

Tang Mingsang's eyes were straight, his eyes were stunned, and he helped Ying Niang up.

"I don't know, this thing is the same as those puppets in Qingfeng Town, it's scary to look at."

Sakura Niang took a hard breath, and the female corpses in Qingfeng Town immediately echoed in her mind.

"Isn't that ...... I heard that the ancient book records that if the person who jumps into the river is entangled in something green like a ribbon in the river, then he will be the one chosen by the river demon. The river demon will attach itself to the corpse and begin to attack passing ships to vent its anger. We... Should we actually encounter the river demon? ”

Xiangxue and Sakura glanced at each other, there was nothing to say, and the two people who were scuffling together on the opposite side were also inseparable. To be precise, it should be that Su Changqing doesn't know how to start, this strange thing is simply inviolable by a hundred swords. And the strength is surprisingly great, if you continue to entangle like this, when Su Changqing's strength is exhausted, maybe it will become the food in the mouth of this monster.

Su Changqing dodged the attack, his brain running fast.

Three quarters of an hour later, there was a low roar at the door, and Sakura Niang and the others finally eased up, and then they were hit on the head again

I saw that the thing standing at the door was exactly the same as the one that was scuffling with Su Changqing. At this moment, it looks like a demon who crawled out of hell and specializes in eating human flesh.

The thing walked in, turned its head stiffly, and then walked straight towards Sakura and the others who were shrunk in the corner.

Seeing that the black nails were less than three inches away from everyone.

Tang Mingsang hurriedly took out a red disc from his arms, pressed the raft, and a silver needle ejected out, unexpectedly breaking through the flesh and entering the skin of this thing.

After just a few breaths, the thing fell straight down, unable to move.
