The terrain of the Shenzhou Continent is complex, and there are monsters and beasts rampant, so the cost of land transportation is extremely high and the risk is huge. Although it may not be completely safe on the water, as long as the boat is big enough, it is much safer than on the ground. Because of this, the two main water systems on the Shenzhou continent can be called traffic arteries, and they are extremely busy at all times, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as sails and shadows.

Although it is night at the moment, there are still many boats going down the Yellow River, and there is a flat-topped boat not far from Ji Yao's building boat that is not much smaller than them, but this one is even more watery than the building boat that God blesses them, and it was overtaken by them in the middle, so it should not be those people's boats.

Tianyou controlled the mocking wind to hover in the sky, observing the ship by ship, paying attention to the looks and behaviors of everyone on the boat, anyway, the black mocking wind was almost invisible in this night. He could calmly observe everyone up close without worrying about alerting anyone.

Sure enough, under this unscrupulous approach reconnaissance, observers who thought they were far away and didn't have to worry about it were quickly screened out.

This is a small clipper, this kind of ship does meet the needs of peepers, but Tianyou can find this group of people so quickly, precisely because he knows which ship is most suitable for the prisoner, so he focused on inserting similar targets as soon as he came up, and found the owner at once.

The boats are like heavy motorcycles driven by mobsters, interspersed left and right in the traffic, the difference is that they are not overtaking but overtaking. Because of its small size and slender shape, it is more than twice as fast as other ships. Interspersed back and forth in the river, they soon reached a short distance behind their boat. In this way, the other party does not intend to slow down, but to overtake.

The other party is a clipper, and it would be too strange if it had been falling behind the ship. Therefore, the other party did not plan to follow behind all the time, but went the opposite way, planning to take advantage of the opportunity to overtake the ship to observe from the side of the ship, and under the approaching reconnaissance of the mocking wind, he actually found that this group of people also prepared hooks. This is clearly the intention to play the jumping gang. Of course, they shouldn't have planned to come up to fight, after all, Ji Yao lives on the top of the shipbuilding, and this boatload of people is not enough for her to slap in the palm of her hand.

The idea of these people is actually very simple, that is, they plan to take advantage of the fact that the people on the ship are complex and do not know each other completely, and then get information. After all, the shipwrights and the guards on this ship belong to two groups of people, and Ji Yao brought a large number of people and horses, which is the time of chaos. In addition, the boat is sailing on the water, and it is generally not easy to approach, even if the gate is intended to bet that Ji Yao will not always keep an eye on the changes around her.

Although the consciousness of the promising monks is amazing, when the spiritual sense is released, even the grass and trees within a few miles of the surrounding cannot escape their perception. But this kind of situation is like an ordinary person staring around and observing, how can a normal person be so vigilant all the time? Naturally, the monk can't open his spiritual sense all day long, and even if he is not tired like that, he can't expect to do anything else.

Therefore, the tracker guessed that Ji Yao should not pay attention to the surrounding movements during this time on the boat, so naturally they could touch it smoothly. In addition, they are just looking for information and don't plan to do anything, and they can even retreat quietly and calmly after finishing the matter, which seems to be very risky, but it is actually a very feasible action.

It's a pity that they don't know that there is a small stealth reconnaissance plane with infrared equipment hovering overhead, and every move is taken into Tianyou's eyes.

The small clipper in the night soon reached the side of the ship. The location they had chosen for the overtaking was clever, as it happened to be an area with reefs on both sides of the river, and for safety the boats had to pass as close to the narrow area in the center of the river as possible. Moreover, when they overtook the boat, there happened to be a boat on the opposite side of the river, which made the already small usable river even narrower. Originally, this kind of place is not suitable for overtaking, but the boat is not a car, especially a sailboat, and the speed is not so easy to control. Therefore, seeing that they were getting closer and closer, they had no choice but to "helplessly" choose to pass through the relatively more dangerous reef area on the right side of the ship.

The reef is dangerous for big ships, but it doesn't really have much effect on their fast boats, after all, everyone understands the reason why boats are shallow. Therefore, no one paid attention to the small boat that had entered the reef area, only that it was relying on the shallow draft to overtake the boat from this side. Of course, for the sake of safety, even if they enter the reef area, they will definitely not go deeper, and they should try to get closer to the safe river, so that they will be a little closer to the building boat.

When one of the guards saw the boat approaching, they walked to the side of the boat and yelled at them to stay away. The people on the boat naturally nodded and smiled, saying that they would leave immediately, and their boat was indeed accelerating and gradually overtaking the building ship.

The guard didn't pay attention to it when he saw that the other party was about to pass, turned around and began to patrol again, but at this moment, five flying claws suddenly flew out of the small boat, accurately hooking the side of the ship. As soon as the rope behind him tightened, five black shadows flew upstairs to the side of the ship, hanging on the outside of the ship's board.

The boat below saw that the person had been sent out, and immediately sped over. The boat was obviously modified, and in addition to the sails outside, there should be a human-driven slurry underneath, otherwise even a clipper wouldn't be able to change speeds so freely.

The boat was far away, and the people on the building naturally stopped paying attention, and the guards all relaxed, and each of them snooze and patrol, while the five men in black carefully moved along the side of the boat to the stern. There is not much shelter on the ship, and the middle of the hull area is even more unobstructed, which is really difficult to go up. However, the stern guard is much weaker, and it is an easier position to infiltrate.

And just as the five men in black carefully moved towards the stern, Hu Qingxuan and Hu Niu in the cabin next to Tianyou also opened their eyes.

The tall and long-legged tiger girl strode to the door of the room, pushed the door and walked out. Of course, the guards still had to ask after seeing it, but they didn't expect Tianyou to come out.

"The first time I took a boat, I couldn't sleep, so we went to the stern to catch a few fish and have fun, and left me alone. ”

Knowing that Tianyou couldn't sit still, the guards didn't ask much, and continued to stand guard after saluting, and Tianyou and they came directly to the stern.

The man in black carefully climbed up the outer wall of the aft building, and finally reached the top. The five of them listened with bated breath for a while, but didn't notice any movement, and then carefully poked their heads out to observe the situation above. However, the moment they poked their heads out, several arms suddenly stretched out from the side of the ship, grabbed the necks of the five and dragged them straight up.

"Hmm......" The five people struggled desperately, but the arms around their necks did not move as if they were cast in copper and iron, and they forcibly stretched the five of them on the deck. What's worse is that he could still rely on the bulkhead of the ship to borrow power from the ship's outboard before, but now after being lifted up, he was lifted in mid-air without leaning on all sides. Even if it is powerful, it can't be used.

"Oh, look what I caught? Anyway, the fish in the Yellow River are really strange, they have hands and feet, not to mention, they can actually learn to wear clothes. ”

Hu Qingxuan replied to Tianyou: "I think it belongs to the same demon clan as the slave family." ”

"Oh, it's not human. That's easy to do. Tianyou said and turned around and asked the tiger girl: "Your tiger demon clan doesn't have the habit of not eating other demon clans, right?"

The tiger girl deliberately licked her lips and said, "As long as it is not the same tiger demon, it can be eaten." I haven't tasted this fish demon before, and I heard that it tastes good. ”

Unlike Hu Niu and Tianyou, Hu Qingxuan is holding a man in black in his hand, and he is also a woman. Hearing this, she tore off the other party's sleeve, revealing one of Bai Huahua's arms. Grabbed the wrist and forcibly straightened the arm, and then raised it in front of the tiger girl: "People are most afraid of those strange-tasting foods, so you should help taste them first." ”

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of being unpalatable. Here, hand me some, I'll taste it first. Tiger Niu opened her bloody mouth as she spoke. A face that was originally very good-looking was rapidly deformed as the mouth opened, revealing the shape of a tiger's head, and at this moment, Hu Qingxuan also relaxed the strength on the other party's neck a little in a timely manner.

"Demon, kill if you want to, don't think we'll give in, you guys are so scared......"

The woman did not beg for mercy after being let go, but was quite stubborn, and even laughed at the uselessness of God's scaring tricks. It's a pity that Tianyou has never been a good man and a woman, and he will not have the slightest mercy for those who have bad intentions. As for Hu Niu and Hu Qingxuan...... Will you be sad about the disappearance of a seedling for a plate of greens on the table?

Therefore, knowing that intimidation was useless, the tiger girl really bit down without saying a word. It's not as simple as tearing off a piece of meat, but half of an arm is gone in an instant.

With a gurgling chewing sound, Hu Niu really chewed her arm and swallowed it in front of the woman in black. Although she looks like a sunny woman on weekdays, the tiger girl is a monster after all, a wild monster. Is it just mere intimidation? What is the reason for the monster to eat people? When people eat pork, they don't explain to the mother pig why they want to eat it, isn't it?

"Not to mention, it's really tender. And a little sweet. While chewing, the tiger girl also excitedly talked about the taste with Hu Qingxuan.

Hu Qingxuan swallowed his saliva when he heard this, but after all, he didn't really open his mouth to gnaw directly like a tiger girl, but stretched out his clove tongue like tasting ice cream and licked it at the woman's broken arm, but very ladylike rolled all the blood into her mouth, and then her eyes lit up and said: "Really, there is a hint of sweet fragrance." Leave this to me, Tiger Girl. I like the tender ones. ”

"If you want to keep it, I still have two. As she spoke, the tiger girl suddenly turned her head and bit off the head of a person next to her, and chewed it with a chatter. The rest of the people looked at the headless corpse and was still shaking to itself, all of them were terrified. I thought that the other party was just scaring them, but in the blink of an eye, they were dead and disabled, and no one would think that God blessed them just by talking.

Feeling the tremor of the assassin in his hand, Tianyou also relaxed the strength of his hand slightly, and the next second, the man screamed.

"I said, I said, don't eat me. Someone hired us to ...... here."

Tianyou suddenly increased his strength to cut off this person's words, and then asked sharply: "Did the master ask you, you just shouted?" I don't want to know anything about you, the master is here to add food to his demon pet." ”

Hu Niu asked at the right time: "Yes, master, didn't you let us open meat all the way? Why is this so good to us today?" This may not feel like it in another place, but it is very scary to cooperate with Hu Niu's appearance of munching alone.

At this time, the one who was lifted up in the hands of the tiger girl and had not yet taken his turn finally screamed. "I said, I said, my lord spares my life! We are the cultivators of the Little Jiaye Temple, and the abbot asked us to come. ”

"What is Xiuye, can I eat it?"

Hu Niu's words scared the person in her hand half to death, and she trembled and quickly replied: "You can't eat it! You can't eat it! Cultivation is to believe in my Buddha and voluntarily join the people of the temple to farm, fish and hunt on behalf of the temple." Because I can't be a monk because I am waiting for the dust to be over, I can only lead the practice to eliminate the karmic retribution on my body first, and then I will have the opportunity to enter my Buddhism. ”

"It turned out to be a tenant raised by the temple. ”

"It's not a tenant, we are willing to ......" The man wanted to explain, but found that the tiger girl opened her mouth again and made a gesture to bite him, so he was so frightened that he quickly changed his words: "No, no, it's a tenant." We help the monastery to farm, fish and hunt, and hand over the harvest to the monastery every year, which is actually tenant farming. ”

"Aren't the monks not eating meat?" asked Tianyou suspiciously.

This time, Hu Qingxuan explained to Tianyou. This is actually not a secret, but the Qin State almost can't see the power of Buddhism, so Tianyou doesn't know much. In fact, Buddhist disciples have never forbidden meat, what they ban is fishy, that is, they can't eat spicy food and can't eat blood. As long as the blood in the meat is cleaned before cooking, and no irritating seasonings such as chili peppers and garlic are added, they can be eaten casually. Therefore, the temples on the Shenzhou Continent not only need food, vegetables and fruits, but also do not refuse fresh fish and meat.

After understanding this, Tianyou asked the man again: "Since you are the tenants of the temple, why did the abbot let you come to follow the princess of Chu's boat?"

"I really don't know this little one!" the man cried and begged for mercy: "The villain is just a cultivator who helps the little Kaye Temple to fish, because the water is good, and he can also use fists and feet, so he is often arranged by the abbot master to monitor the situation of passing ships." The other villains really don't know. I beg you ......"

The man stopped abruptly in the middle of his sentence, because his head was gone. Tiger Girl had a headless corpse in one hand, chewing on a crunchy skull in her mouth, and turned her head to look at the escalator of the shipbuilding.

The guards would have heard the movement of those people just now, as long as they were alive, and now a group of people just arrived in time. Looking at the hellish scene on earth on the stern of the ship, I was stunned there. Fortunately, they were all elites of the royal family, and they didn't pause for too long, just a little hesitation and reacted and went up to the stern building.

"God bless Childe, this is ......"

Tianyou directly threw one of the black-clothed people in his hand over, "I just caught a few big fish, send this one to see if the princess is interested." For the rest, give my demon pet a tooth sacrifice. Tianyou said and threw the guy in his other hand into the air, and the guards felt a wind overhead sweep overhead, and the man disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye with a series of screams, obviously being swept away by some flying monster.

In fact, although that person was for Mock Wind, before eating it, Mock Wind had to send it to Pandora for interrogation. Tianyou will also use intimidation tricks on his side, if you really want to talk about the master of coercing confessions, Pandora should be much stronger than Tianyou. Of course, in the end, it was still ridiculous to ask people.

In the end, the tiger girl really ate the two black-clothed people in her hand, but the woman with the broken arm, Hu Qingxuan, didn't touch it, because she was also asked by Ji Yao. Although they are both monsters, Hu Qingxuan doesn't like to eat people. To be precise, what she likes to eat is the aura of the human body and the soul of the human body, as for the flesh and blood...... Unless she's a monk, she's not really interested in the average person. Before, it was just a matter of cooperating and scaring those people. Of course, Tiger Girl really likes it.

It is said that people are the spirits of all things, and this sentence is really not bad at all. Even if it is a human who has not undergone any cultivation, the aura value and soul strength on his body can be called the highest among all kinds of creatures, so there are few demon clans who don't like to eat people.

Those demon pets raised by the monks don't want to eat people, but they are controlled by their masters, and they are afraid of offending their masters by eating people, so they generally don't take the initiative to eat people unless the master orders them. If you don't know, you will think that the demon pets raised by someone will be more docile and don't eat people. In fact, it's just that they don't dare to eat, not that they don't want to eat.

Of course, Hu Niu and Hu Qingxuan are both wild monsters, so they naturally don't have so many scruples. Although Tianyou also asked them not to eat people casually, they are quite restrained on weekdays, but after all, the soul contract between Tianyou and his group of demon pets is very special and not very binding, so if it does not affect Tianyou, Tiger Niu naturally doesn't mind eating a few more people.

said that compared to being eaten by the tiger girl, the two who were asked by Ji Yao to go over were more miserable.

As long as the tiger girl's big mouth is not aimed at her hands and feet, she will basically be finished directly with one bite. The man couldn't stand much of a sin. But some of Ji Yao's subordinates are masters of extorting confessions by torture, and the results in their hands can be imagined. Anyway, the screams in the silo at the bottom of this page never stopped.

It's a pity that no matter how powerful Ji Yao's people are, these people don't know if they don't know, and they can't ask anything.

Come to think of it. These black-clothed people are obviously consumables, and no matter how stupid the other party is, it is impossible to tell them any more secrets. These people are just consumables, they are not qualified, and they don't need to know the secrets of their masters, so naturally they can't be tortured if they are caught.

On the surface, these people are all cultivators of the small Jiaye Temple, but these people admit this. However, there is not much difference between knowing and not knowing. Even if they send someone to ask, they just need to say that there is no such person, and no one really dares to forcibly investigate anything.

To put it bluntly, it's still a matter of strength.

After the Battle of the Catastrophe, the Immortal Buddha Second Gate won, and although the human race did not completely disappear like other races, it was also on the weak side. Today's Ten Kingdoms of Shenzhou, to put it bluntly, are similar to those vassal kings who have sealed their territories. Those who are stronger than Qin are less affected by the two sects of Immortal Buddhas, and those who are weaker may be basically under the control of one of the Immortal Buddhas.

Chu is considered to be the first echelon of strength among the ten countries of Shenzhou, but no matter how strong it is, it is not enough to fight against Buddhism. At least to investigate the monasteries in the Chu State, they must find evidence that can be used, otherwise it is really impossible to start with the confessions of just a few people.

Ji Yao obviously understood these truths, so she didn't plan to go to trouble Xiao Jiaye Temple, and she didn't even mention this matter to Tianyou again. Fortunately, the voyage after that was not harassed by thieves, and soon the ship entered the control of the Chu State.

"God bless you, the one in front of you is the dragon boat ferry of my Chu country. Seeing that the land was imminent, Ji Yao seemed to have become happy, and it was rare to stand on the bow of the boat with Tianyou, pointing ahead to explain to him.

Tianyou followed Ji Yao's finger and saw a sail shadow entering the forest in the distance. Behind the dense mass of ships was a little fire hidden in the morning mist. Listening to Ji Yao's introduction, those orange dots are all torches lit on the dock, looking at this continuous large area, it makes Tianyou think of the urban night scene he saw on the earth in his previous life.

"It is worthy of being one of the water gateways of the Great Chu Kingdom, and it is really magnificent. ”
