Chapter Eighty-Six: Set Sail
Swish! A soft ladder still came down from the boat and shook it in front of everyone, and Lin Hu took the lead in climbing up.
On the deck, Li Bai found that there was no shortage of anything on this ship, but there were no other things, and it was really hard and simple. Lin Hu also felt that there was some cold ginseng on the ship, and immediately ran to command the ship with a somewhat embarrassed face, leaving Zhou Tai with a reluctant face to greet the three of Li Bai.
"Brother Taibai, should you go back to the cabin to rest, or stay here to enjoy the scenery."
"Let's go to the front and take a look, and if something happens, we can rescue immediately."
Boom! The ship has lifted anchor and is slowly leaving the docile harbor and heading for the mighty river. Soon, the sail was raised high, and the river bank behind it gradually disappeared from view, and the ocean was still in front of it.
Only when you have really been to the sea can you experience the rush of the blank looking around is an ocean. Although the Beihe River is only a tributary of Qingshui, and Li Bai doesn't know what level the Beihe is in the water system of this space, this Beihe already has a feeling of the ocean, and it is hard to imagine how vast the largest body of water in this space should be!
The hundred-meter-long giant ship actually has a feeling of a flat boat in this North River, fortunately, the wind in the river is not too big, as long as you carefully bypass some waters where some powerful aquatic spirits live, there is not much danger, but the speed of this voyage is inevitably slowed down.
At the bow of the boat, Lin Hu took a map of the waters from nowhere and studied it carefully, his brows furrowed from time to time, and then looked at the various spirits scattered in the waters, as if he was in trouble.
"Brother Tiger, it's finally set sail, why don't you think you're happy?"
"Alas, Brother Taibai. I won't hide it from you, I got this water map soon after I entered the game, although it is not complete, but the complete route from Beihe to Qingshui is still there, and with the addition of this boat, I am still very confident in this voyage. ”
Li Bai didn't speak, waiting for his next step. Sure enough, Lin Hu continued to take care of himself: "Alas! The plan is perfect, but the reality is full of surprises. My mistake was that I put too much trust in this water map. ”
"What, is this water map fake?" Li Bai is also a little uncalm, if there are problems with the water map, then their voyage this time will be really unlucky. It seems that they only need to go downstream from the North River to the confluence point of the green water, and it doesn't matter if there is a water map or not, but in fact this is not the case at all.
If it is on Earth, it doesn't matter if there is a water map or not, but in this strange and mysterious world, an accurate water map and a sturdy warship are in the same position. Take the Beihe River as an example, the water map not only indicates the route of travel, but also the distribution map of various aquarium spirits. Sailors with a water map only need to avoid the danger areas to sit back and relax, if there is no water map, the situation can also be predicted, if you accidentally rush into the territory of a high-level water spirit, it may be the fate of the ship's wreck.
Lin Hu looked up at Li Bai, and then buried his head in the water map for a while before he spoke: "No, the water map is right, what is wrong is the time, this water map is still the same from hundreds of years ago!" I rub. ”
Li Bai's head was sweating wildly, but there was no reason to blame Lin Hu, after all, Beiping County had been isolated from the outside world for hundreds of years, and this waterway had not been sailed for hundreds of years, so even if he wanted to find the current water map, there was nowhere to get it.
The two looked at each other without saying a word. The member of the 'Jinfan Thief' who was at the helm next to him suddenly interjected in a low voice: "Brother Tiger, what should we do then?" It's been hundreds of years, and the distribution of spirits in Beihe is not the same as before, if we accidentally crash into the lair of an old monster, wouldn't we be in trouble! ”
It's normal for the younger brother to be nervous, but the boss must not be stage frightened. Lin Hu replied very calmly: "Ah Shui, don't worry, the situation is not so bad." Just as cultivators usually choose places with abundant spiritual energy to practice, the distribution of spirits in the water is also regular, and the spirits with high cultivation will naturally occupy the places where the spiritual veins in the water converge, so although the distribution of the spirits has changed, the most dangerous is still the places where the spiritual veins gather. The cultivation of the spirits can increase, but it can't change the geological distribution for a few hundred years, and the water maps of those places are just marked. ”
Li Bai added at the right time: "Brother Tiger is right, and I learned from a senior that although there are a large number of spirits in this Beihe, there are very few who can reach the innate, and there is no one who succeeds in further building the foundation." With the strength of our boatman, even if we break into some dangerous areas, there is hope of getting out completely. ”
The two of them spoke at a settling heart for Ah Shui, and also for the hearts of the entire ship. Looking at the seemingly endless waters again, Lin Hu's eyes were full of confidence and fighting spirit.
However, the good times were short-lived. After the ship sailed safely for more than an hour, a huge force suddenly came from the bottom, and the entire bow of the ship was pushed up by this huge force by more than ten meters, and the two members of the 'Jinfan Thief' on board who were caught off guard were thrown into the sea in an instant. Fortunately, the name 'Sail Thief' was not blown out, and each member of the team was skilled in water, and after a breath of falling into the water, they surfaced and asked for help from their colleagues on deck.
"Brother Tiger, help! There's a king-sized piranha down there, and a school of smaller ones, and they're about to catch up! The voices of the two were very frightened, and they desperately slapped the water and swam towards the boat, which was the only reliance of the sailors and the guarantee of their survival in the vast and lonely waters.
In the next moment, a large, ugly head emerged from behind them, sharp teeth glittering with a blinding chill. Judging by their respective speeds, it only takes 10 seconds for the two members of the 'Sail Thief' to be overtaken.
The situation is extremely critical, in the eyes of the 'Jinfan thieves', how thrilling their brother is at this time, and their hopes are completely pinned on their eldest brother Lin Hu. And Lin Hu did not live up to their expectations, almost the moment the fish's head came out of the water, he rushed out of the water, and hurriedly greeted Li Bai before rushing out.
With Lin Hu's speed, it was difficult to save the two 'Jinfan Thief' members before the big fish devoured them, if they couldn't save these two brothers, they would inevitably leave a shadow among the remaining members, and the cohesion of the entire ship would be scattered. If Lin Hu couldn't save their brother from the mouth of a small piranha, then the voyage was too uncertain, and they hadn't heard of any fish spirits being vegetarians.
What Lin Hu can figure out, Li Bai naturally understands. So before Lin Hu could greet him, he was like a fluttering breeze, as if he was rushing towards the piranha slowly.
Ten seconds passed, and the huge head of the piranha appeared on top of the heads of the two members of the 'Sail Thief', and with a single touch, they could bite them in two. The distance between Lin Hu and the two of them is still a foot away, it seems to be very tight, but it is like the end of the world, and the two of them can't help but despair.
Click!
The two large mouths of the piranha were fiercely put together, but there was no physical barrier as expected, but instead swallowed a belly of river water. At that moment, a fierce whirlwind suddenly appeared at its mouth, blowing its mouth off a bit, and the enraged piranha opened its mouth again to bite the two who were still fleeing forward, but there was no chance to bite them again. This time, it was greeted by a large fist with its big mouth.
Boom!
The piranha's tough jaw was suddenly hit by Lin Hu's full force, and a 10-centimeter-deep depression immediately appeared, but it was not penetrated. Its mouth opened to the fullest, as if it were howling, but it didn't make a sound. Lin Hu smiled fiercely, and was about to make persistent efforts to give it a ruthless blow, but he suddenly had a sense of crisis, and habitually took a few steps back. Just as he was waiting to observe the situation, he suddenly found that his body was uncontrollably falling towards the body, and the true qi in his body was disordered and difficult to control.
"No!" After a terrible howl, Lin Hu instantly regained control of his body, and the head of the huge piranha had been separated from his body. Li Bai held the Taibai sword and stood on the corpse of the big fish.
Just as the piranha sent out an infrasound wave, he sensed that something was wrong. However, he has cultivated the "Reincarnation Classic" and has an extraordinary resistance to this kind of sonic attack, and at that time, the piranha completely unloaded his defense, and was cut in two by him with a 'dragon going to sea'.
In the waters, the power of the "Dragon Sword Technique" was extremely strong, which surprised Li Baidu.
With the death of the great piranha, the first crisis of the voyage came to an end.
