Chapter 508: Water Ghost
Although Qi Feng was stabbed by Yan Lingxian, fortunately, he did not hurt the vital point, and he applied the wound medicine, and quickly stopped the bleeding, and by dusk, his face had recovered some blood. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Yan Lingxian was hit by Qi Ning's two punches, especially the circle in the chest, which hurt his chest, and sat alone in the bow of the boat, resting and recuperating, everyone saw Yan Lingxian like this, knowing that it was Qi Ning who made the move, and the anger in his heart also decreased slightly, but when it came to the meal, no one paid attention to him, and Zhou Shun even instructed the cook on the boat not to send food to Yan Lingxian.
Ximen Zhanying also knew that Yan Lingxian had caused a big disaster this time, but he was afraid that Qi Ning would be angry and really cut Yan Lingxian with one sword.
After all, Yan Lingxian grew up with her since she was a child, and she was also very obedient to her on weekdays, she naturally couldn't bear Yan Lingxian to die under Qi Ning's knife, seeing that Qi Lingxian knew that he was injured, but did not hurt his life, this was already an undesirable result, she was worried that if she sent food to Yan Lingxian, she was afraid that it would anger Qi Ning and Zhou Shun's group, and it was not easy to send it, thinking that Yan Lingxian almost killed Qi Feng, even if he was hungry for a few days, it would not be too much.
After dark, Qi Ning was practicing in the house, and he heard a knock on the door, and Zhou Shun's voice came in from outside: "Master Hou, something is wrong." ”
Qi Ning closed the door and opened the door, and Zhou Shun said in a low voice: "There are two ships on the opposite side approaching. ”
Qi Ning frowned, followed Zhou Shun to the bow of the boat, Li Tang was standing at the bow of the boat at this time, saw Qi Ningguo coming, raised his hand and pointed forward, Qi Ning looked over by the moonlight, only to see two small boats on the opposite side going upstream, Li Tang had already whispered: "Master Hou, just now I saw that there was a reflection on the small boat, and the people on the boat may be carrying weapons." ”
"We've got lights on the ship, so we should be able to see them from a long distance." Zhou Shun said softly: "It stands to reason that when a small boat meets a big boat, it should give way to the side, but you see that these two small boats, occupying the middle of the river, are coming straight to us, there must be a problem." ”
Li Tang sneered: "I heard that there are river bandits on the surface of the Yangtze River from time to time, robbing ships passing alone, Master Hou, we have to guard against it." ”
Zhou Shun said: "If it is an ordinary river bandit, it is not to be afraid, I am only afraid that this group of people is not an ordinary river bandit." ”
Qi Ning bowed his head and said: "What Zhou Shun said is right, Li Tang, Zhou Shun, tell you to go down, let the boatmen not act rashly, and let Zhao Quan protect Qi Feng, yes, go and inform Miss Ximen, just say that she has encountered a little trouble, let her be careful." ”
"No need, I'm here." There was the voice of Ximen Zhan Ying from behind, for a whole day, because Qi Feng was injured, Ximen Zhan Ying was not good at taking the initiative to talk to Qi Ning, at this time, hearing Qi Ning mention himself, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Qi Ning didn't explain, he snorted, Ximen Zhanying looked over, saw that the two small boats were catching up against the current, frowned and said, "Aren't they afraid of being knocked over by the big boat?" ”
Zhou Shun had already gone to inform the people on the boat, Qi Ning stood at the bow of the boat, took a look by the moonlight, and saw the figures of the two small boats flickering, there were as many as seven or eight people on each boat, crowded, frowning, the big boat did not stop, continued to move forward, but in a moment the two small boats had reached the front of the big boat, seeing that they were about to collide, the two small boats were quite agile, and the fish-like swing had already bypassed the bow of the boat left and right, and went to both sides of the big boat.
"Zhou Shun will guard the left side, and Li Tang will guard the right side." Qi Ning shouted in a low voice: "Zhan Ying went to the port side with Zhou Shun, be careful." ”
Ximen Zhan Ying knew that someone was really attacking, and knew that the matter was urgent, so he did not hesitate, pulled out his saber, and walked quickly to the port side with Zhou Shun.
Yan Lingxian was originally leaning against the corner of the bow of the boat, and at this time he also knew that someone was coming, although his chest was still faintly painful, but he did not hurt his muscles and bones, he stood up, and did not say much, and went straight to find his knife, Qi Ning quickly went to the starboard side, and saw Li Tang holding a big knife and staring coldly at the bottom of the boat, Qi Ning also looked over, and saw that the small boat had approached the side of the big ship, and at this time he saw clearly, and saw that there were seven or eight people on the boat, all of whom were covered faces, and one person was holding a hook that had already lassoed the side of the big ship. Keep the boat close to the big boat.
The boatmen of the big boat continued to move forward according to Zhou Shun's instructions, so the big boat did not stop, and the people on the small boat had to get close to the side of the boat if they wanted to come up, and they had obviously been prepared for a long time.
At this moment, several people had jumped up on the small boat, holding lassoes and steel knives with belts, and with just a wave, they lassoed the railing of the big ship, and then followed the rope and climbed towards the big boat with great lightness.
"Master Hou, cut the rope!" Li Tang's expression was cold, he clenched the knife in his hand, and was about to cut the rope, Qi Ning said in a low voice: "Wait a minute!" He already held the cold blade in his hand, and when a person climbed onto the side of the boat, Qi Ning suddenly took out a knife and slashed at the man's wrist, the man was taken aback and hurriedly withdrew his hand, but Qi Ning's move was a false momentum, and the cold blade turned, and the blood light flew, and it had already cut the man's head.
At this time, Li Tang saw that a person was about to climb onto the side of the boat, and he did not hesitate, and slashed on the rope with a knife, and the rope was immediately cut off, and the person who climbed on the rope fell down with the rope, and with a "poof" sound, he fell into the water, splashing everywhere.
As soon as Li Tang succeeded, he was about to cut another person's rope, and suddenly felt the cold wind coming, but it was someone on the small boat who shot a hidden weapon at Li Tang, the other party was obviously a good hand at the hidden weapon, Li Tang could only retreat and dodge, it was this time, two people had already turned on the side of the boat, and slashed at Li Tang with a knife.
Both sides did not say a word, and when they met, they engaged each other in a short battle.
Qi Ning slashed a person's head with a knife, and a person next to him was taken aback, he didn't expect Qi Ning to shoot so fiercely, seeing the headless corpse of his companion falling into the water, he couldn't help but glance down, his heart was cold, and at this time, he heard the wind above his head, and a cold light pierced his head, this person reacted quickly, and his hands were loosened, and he had fallen straight into the water.
Li Tang was one enemy and two at this time, but he did not fall behind, but forced the two to retreat again and again, Qi Ning frowned, at this time, he had already heard a fight on the port side, and knew that Ximen Zhan Ying had already fought with the enemy, and he said in a deep voice: "Li Tang guards here." He quickly ran to the stern of the boat.
If the other party is here to attack, he naturally knows the situation on his side very well, and he should also understand the combat effectiveness of his side, but look at the martial arts of these people, although it is not too bad, but it is not too much of a threat, Qi Ning knew that things were not simple, and when he walked to the stern, he saw that several people had sneaked up from the stern, and they were all wearing water, obviously diving.
The water is a one-piece diving suit made of fish skin, sea Jiao skin or shark break, with a smooth surface, internal warmth, and can swim downstream faster and longer.
Qi Ning naturally understood at this time that this was a ghost trick, the two small boats were bluffing and deliberately being seen, just to attract the attention of the boat, and these water ghosts wanted to secretly get on the boat while the gang was dragging Qi Ning and the others.
Four or five people in a row turned up from the stern of the boat, and when they saw Qi Ning in the moonlight, they were all a little surprised, and several of them were holding water spines in both hands, spreading out in a circle, but they didn't step forward immediately, only to hear one person say in a low voice: "I know that you are Jinyihou, our brothers don't want your life, as long as you hand over that person, we will leave immediately, and we will not hurt you in the slightest." ”
Qi Ning smiled coldly and asked, "Who is it?" ”
"Jinyihou, you don't have to pretend to be confused." The man also smiled coldly: "We are so powerful, even if we fight for death and injury, you can't get anything good." Since you have found it, please give Jinyihou a face and hand over the person to us, so as not to hurt the harmony. ”
"You're generous." Qi Ning smiled: "I have already killed one of you with my own hands, could it be that you don't care about his life at all and don't want to avenge him?" At this moment, hearing the sound of footsteps, Qi Ning looked over from the corner of his eye, but found that Yan Lingxian had already found the knife and was standing beside him.
"As long as you hand over someone, that human life will be regarded as a gift to Lord Hou." The group of water ghosts glanced at Yan Lingxian, and only listened to the man's yin and said: "But if Master Hou is obsessed, I am only worried that you will not even be able to save your own life." ”
Qi Ning said lightly: "I know you are going to find the door, but if you want to snatch someone from me, you have to ask if my knife is agreed." The light of the cold blade in his hand flickered, Qi Ning's figure flickered, and he had already stepped forward, and the cold blade in his hand stabbed straight at the person who spoke.
The man didn't entangle, immediately retreated, and sneered: "Don't regret it. He turned around and ran to the bow of the boat, but he jumped down, and a crisp whistle sounded in the crowd, and the others had already jumped off the stern of the boat, only to hear the continuous sound of "poof, puff, puff", and those people were instantly submerged in the water.
Qi Ning walked quickly to the bow of the boat, looked down, the water surface was sparkling, and all the water ghosts had dived underwater, and at this moment, he heard the sound of footsteps, and the voice of Ximen Zhan Ying came from behind him: "They all jumped off the boat." ”
"Sakura, do you know water?" Qi Ning didn't look back.
Ximen Zhan Ying stepped forward and frowned, "What are you asking for?" Shaking his head: "I...... I don't understand water. ”
Hearing the sound of footsteps again, Li Tang's voice came: "Master Hou, they all jumped off the boat." When he saw that there were traces of water on the bow deck, he immediately understood: "These guys are going to make a noise." ”
Qi Ning raised his hand, signaled them not to speak, squinted his eyes, listened attentively, and after a while, his face sank, and said, "They want to scuttle the boat!" ”
"Scuttling a ship?" Ximen Zhanying was slightly taken aback, and Li Tang rushed to the bow of the boat: "Master Hou, I'll go into the water!" ”
"Don't be presumptuous!" Qi Ning said in a deep voice: "Li Tang, Zhou Shun, you follow me to the bottom of the cabin immediately, Zhan Ying, you go and guard my room." Glancing at Yan Lingxian, he saw that he was looking at him, and ordered: "Yan Lingxian, you stay in front of the cabin door to prevent anyone from entering." ”
Several people were not verbose and acted one after another.
Qi Ning led Li Tang and Zhou Shun to the bottom bilge, the six or seven boatmen in the bilge already knew that there was an enemy attacking, and they were panicking, shaking desperately, and when they saw Qi Ning coming down, someone had already greeted him and said, "Master Hou, the bottom of the boat...... There's movement on the bottom of the boat! ”
Li Tang was already lying on the board of the boat, everyone held their breath, and they clearly heard the sound of "dong dong" coming from the bottom of the boat, obviously someone was digging the boat at the bottom of the boat.
"Listen up, pick up the harpoon, once the bottom of the boat is chiseled, don't bother, the harpoon will go down." Qi Ning instructed several boatmen: "This gang is menacing, everyone must work together." ”
With Qi Ning's current martial arts, if it is a head-on fight, Qi Ning really doesn't care about these water ghosts, but these water ghosts are operating underwater, it will be very troublesome, the boatmen listened to Qi Ning's orders, and immediately went to find harpoons, there are really a lot of harpoons under this cabin, and one is more than enough for each person.
"Oh no, they cut the oars." A boatman shouted.
This kind of big ship, when there is wind, you can sail with the wind, when there is no wind, you have to rely on the boatman to swing forward, if you want to accelerate, the wind and the rock, the speed is even faster.
Now that the boat is being destroyed by the other party, it is obvious that they don't want the people on board to control the direction of the big ship.
