Chapter 100: Fishbone Tower
Feng Yi asked puzzledly, "Could it be that this secret place is only used to raise fish?" But why is it so guarded? ”
I couldn't explain it clearly, so I told him, "Let's go to the hut and see what is going on." ”
The hillside was covered with shrubs more than a man tall, and we could just hide ourselves with them and move closer to the hut.
In the whole field of vision, there was not a single figure. I whispered, "Are you sure your people are missing here?" ”
Feng Yi had a straight face, his expression was very solemn, and said, "There will be no mistake, so I followed Jiang Beiqiang to find out!" ”
It's a little scary. We had just taken a step when we suddenly felt a chill rush from behind us.
I whispered, "Oh no, someone's sneaking up!" ”
As the thought came to me, I quickly flashed to the side.
A slender dagger grazed my body.
The other party is silent, as a junior spirit master, my senses are definitely much more sensitive than ordinary people.
But I still didn't know when he came closer.
Feng Yi also guarded the dagger in front of him in surprise.
It's just that the other party misses the blow like a gust of wind, and I only see the surrounding bushes shake a few times, and his figure disappears.
We all stared intently at the bushes around us. We could even hear Feng Yi's breathing.
As a gust of wind blew, the surrounding bushes shook.
Feng Yi whispered, "Be careful! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, two figures leaped up from the bushes like ghosts, and at the same time daggers flashed with cold light, each stabbing at us.
I had already prepared, and with a flick of my wrist, the Spirit Whip swept towards him with the sound of the wind.
The man's body was in mid-air, and before the dagger had stabbed me, the whip was already wrapped around his legs.
His body slammed down. He was very calm, and as soon as he landed, he used his dagger to slash the spirit whip.
But the Spirit Whip is extremely strong, and of course it is not something that a dagger can cut off.
With a flick of my wrist, the whip was wrapped around his neck.
He rolled his eyes as I swooped down on him, my dagger pointed at his chest.
Only by restraining him can we figure out the situation here.
He stared at me viciously, a sneer suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth, and the dagger stabbed himself in the chest with a backhand.
His eyes rolled, and he lost his breath. I never thought that he would actually kill himself.
At the same time, Feng Yi's dagger collided with another person's dagger.
The other party was shocked and fell into the bushes, and then there was no movement.
Feng Yi glanced at me, and I shook my head at him.
Feng Yi said in a low voice, "Although these guys' strength is very average, they are extremely fast and very good at sneak attacks, no wonder the people we sent seem to have evaporated." ”
Feng Yi glanced at me and motioned for me to strike in the other direction.
I jumped more than a foot away and landed my feet in the bushes.
Feng Yi's dagger stabbed into the bushes in front of him, and a figure jumped up from it like a rabbit.
He was forced to jump straight to me.
Actually, I've been staring at him. Against them, the Spirit Whip works best.
He had barely jumped into the air when he was caught in the whip and slammed into the bushes.
But by the time I ran over, he had already killed himself, just like that man.
These people are specially trained to commit suicide as soon as they fall into the hands of the enemy.
Although they were extremely fast, they were no match for me and Feng Yi at all.
In just ten minutes, five or six people died in front of us.
They were specially guarding this pond, and the people sent by Feng Yi all died at their hands.
They are all masters at the spirit level, but under the attack of the two spirit masters, of course, there is no chance at all.
We waited for more than ten minutes, but there was no movement around. Feng Yicai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's all solved by us." ”
We bowed down, just about to walk down the hill. Suddenly, the door of the hut was pushed open, and several figures walked out of it.
It was Jiang Beiqiang who was the leader, followed by Su Jue and Li Xin behind him, but it was a hunchbacked old man who walked last.
His face was almost parallel to the ground, his face was dark and gray, his face was full of wrinkles, and he looked to be sixty or seventy years old.
We winked at each other, and we all crouched in the bushes.
It's a bit far away, but it's very quiet, and we can still hear their voices clearly.
Behind the hunchbacked old man, there were more than a dozen subordinates of the Jiang family.
Su Jue came out of the hut, turned his head to look around, and asked Jiang Beiqiang, "Young Master, why is it so quiet, are they still staying there?" ”
Jiang Beiqiang said indifferently, "Don't worry, they don't dare to leave their posts without permission, otherwise no one will want to live." ”
The Jiang family manages those people very strictly, no wonder they commit suicide.
They walked towards the pond.
Jiang Beiqiang said to the hunchbacked old man, "Old Yu, it's finally time, you've worked hard all these years." ”
Hearing his words, a wry smile appeared on Lao Yu's face.
He looked back at the thatched hut and said, "Our Yu family has been guarding the pond for nearly a hundred years for several generations, just to repay the favor of your Jiang family. But our mission is finally accomplished. ”
Jiang Beiqiang said, "For this matter, our Jiang family has also been planning for nearly a hundred years. If we succeed, we will not treat you badly. ”
Lao Yu asked, "Is that fishbone tower really that important?" Is it worth the expense? ”
Jiang Beiqiang said with a smile, "Of course, our efforts have not been in vain." You must have heard about Hetu, right? ”
Hearing him mention the word Hetu, Lao Yu's face was also full of excitement.
"Could it be that the fishbone tower has something to do with the river map?"
Jiang Beiqiang nodded with a smile and said, "Only by opening the underground palace of the Fishbone Tower can you know the exact address of the river map." Our Jiang family has studied this matter for many years, and finally found some eyebrows. ”
"The head of the family is really remarkable," said Lao Yu with a smile, "In this way, even if we are a little tired, we should be." ”
Jiang Beiqiang said, "Only big fish that are more than a hundred years old can help us open the underground palace of the Fishbone Tower." ”
Lao Yu nodded and waved behind him.
With the howl of a pig, a young man in his twenties came out of the hut. It looks like Lao Yu's son.
He was holding a rope in his hand, and at the other end of the rope, a black pig weighing more than 100 pounds was tethered.
Lao Yu said to him, "Aquatic, go feed it one last meal." ”
The young man nodded, and led the black pig to the pond. Maybe he would feed the big fish in the pond at this time every day.
Hearing the sound of a pig, a whirlpool rose in the pond, and a black fish head emerged from the water.
On each side of the fish's mouth, there is a pair of tentacles. The fish's head was the size of a house.
I've never seen a fish head this big.
Compared to the sturgeon boat, the head is nearly a lap larger.
Feng Yi squatted beside me, his brows furrowed, and he whispered, "It turns out that there is a sturgeon fish in the pond. ”
The sturgeon's mouth was open, almost like a doorway. Aquatic pushed the black pig into the sturgeon's mouth.
The sturgeon's big mouth closed together and swallowed the black pig violently.
After swimming very fast towards the depths of the pond, a huge wave emerged.
The fish's tail lapped against the water, and the waves splashed more than a foot high.
Looking at this big fish, the expression on Lao Yu's face was complicated. They have been responsible for raising this sturgeon for the Jiang family for generations.
Now that the sturgeon is at its end, his mission is complete.
After more than ten minutes, the river seemed to be boiling.
The huge fish body swam desperately in the water, and the waves rushed towards the shore as if there was a big flood.
Feng Yi said, "They poisoned the pigs, and the sturgeon swallowed them and got poisoned. ”
They all retreated away from the river, leaving the sturgeon to writh in the pool.
Its vitality is very strong, although Lao Yu has poisoned the pig, but it is difficult to kill it for a while.
It took more than an hour for the sturgeon to stop struggling.
Its body floated on the water, its mouth limply open, and there was only one breath left.
Jiang Beiqiang said with relief, "Old Yu, get it up!" ”
Lao Yu agreed, and ordered someone to row a boat to the pond.
Each of them held an iron hook in his hand, which they attached to the sturgeon and pulled it towards the shore.
The sturgeon struggled weakly, and the group pulled the sturgeon to shore.
Jiang Beiqiang was very satisfied and circled around the fish corpse, and then said, "Lao Yu can do it!" ”
