Chapter 53: Waiting for an Opportunity
Wei Yu waited quietly in the water for a while, and soon, the people on the kayak noticed the anomaly of the kayak. Mu Xinyu touched the kayak beside him and asked suspiciously, "Why does this boat seem to have become shorter?" ”
The rest of the boat also sensed that something was wrong. But for a moment, they couldn't think of anything wrong. Mu Xinyu's words instantly clarified the doubts in their hearts.
Almost at the same moment as Mu Xinyu spoke, Gongsun Jiu discovered the abnormality of the kayak. He glanced around, and suddenly saw that the kayak was leaking air rapidly. He shouted, "Damn, who did the check?" What's the air leaking? ”
When everyone heard what Gongsun Jiu said, they were all shocked. Someone pointed to the water on the other side of the kayak and shouted, "Oh no, this is leaking." ”
Gongsun Jiu hurriedly ordered: "Hurry, quickly retreat." It may be too late to move forward. Let's go back and talk about it. ”
As he spoke, he rowed the oars with all his might, rowing away where the kayak had been. The others did not dare to slack off at this time, and hurriedly rowed the oars in their hands one after another. Together, they evacuated faster than they had come.
Of the people on this boat, only Nangong Rong looked at the Mu in front of him very calmly. He was convinced that his words would definitely be able to impress the person who was hiding in the shadows, so that the other party would do his best to help him.
He chuckled, turned his head to look at Li Mingyu, who was at a loss, and whispered in Li Mingyu's ear: "The time has come, don't panic." ”
When Li Mingyu heard this, he instantly understood. When he was on the shore, Nangong Rong once told him that he wanted to wait for an opportunity. He didn't understand what was going on at the time. Now it seems that everything that is happening now must have nothing to do with Nangong Rong.
He nodded lightly towards Nangong Rong, ready to strike at any time. He had been waiting for this opportunity to get out for too long.
Wei Yi lurked in the water and saw the kayak suddenly turn back. He knew that it must be someone on the ship who had discovered the anomaly. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he moved quickly towards the moving kayak.
Wei Yi knew that it was the most appropriate time to make a move. No matter how intuitive and sensitive Mu Xinyu is, in this chaotic situation, he will definitely not be able to guard as closely as before.
Things were indeed as Wei Yi had guessed. Although Mu Xinyu was born with a sensitive intuition that ordinary people do not have, in the current situation, there were hidden crises everywhere, and for a while, he did not notice Wei Yi's quiet approach.
Wei Yi approached the bottom of the kayak very smoothly. With his dagger, he carved more holes in the bottom of the kayak. In just a few moments, the entire kayak quickly deflated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The people on the boat instantly felt panicked. Gongsun Jiu saw that the kayak was about to be completely scrapped. He hurriedly ordered the group to untie the driftwood tied around the kayak.
Nangong Rong said loudly at this time: "Gongsun Jiu, it's all this time, you won't still handcuff the two of us like this." We won't be able to swim for a while. You're not trying to drown either of us. That place is only known to me. If you still want to go there, you'd better open our handcuffs right away. ”
Gongsun Jiu squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, then reached out and took out a medicine bottle from his pocket. He opened the bottle and poured out two pills.
Gongsun Jiu held the two pills and ordered someone to pry open the mouths of Nangong Rong and Li Mingyu. He personally fed the pill to their mouths, and forced Nangong Rong and Li Mingyu to swallow the pill without any turning around.
Nangong Rong shook off the person beside him, glared at Gongsun Jiu hatefully, and said in a slightly higher voice: "Gongsun Jiu, you have to think about it." I know you've been lurking with us for years to find that place. If you do this now, I will never take you to that place. Even if you kill me, don't think about it. ”
Gongsun Jiu chuckled, and while ordering someone to quickly tie the backpack and other items to the driftwood, he said to Nangong Rong very calmly: "When the time comes, I can't help you." Rest assured, I'm not giving you anything like poison. I can't bear to let you die for the time being. Let them go. ”
As soon as Gongsun Jiu's words fell, someone untied the handcuffs of Nangong Rong and Li Mingyu, and did not put other things on them that restricted their mobility.
Nangong Rong frowned, he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Gongsun Dove's gourd, and for a while, he didn't dare to act rashly. And Li Mingyu seems to have some understanding of the pill he just taken. I saw that not long after he took the pill, his face changed instantly.
Seeing Li Mingyu's extremely ugly face, Gongsun Jiu smiled "haha" and said, "Brother Li, I didn't expect you to guess it." Sure enough, he is Xiaohui's cousin, well-informed. ”
Li Mingyu had a gloomy face, and asked Gongsun Jiu in an extremely cold tone: "How can you have such a vicious thing?" ”
Gongsun Jiu smiled slightly, and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter whether you are vicious or not, the important thing is that from now on, you must obediently listen to me, otherwise, you know the consequences." ”
Li Mingyu's face was already extremely difficult to see. He never dreamed that Gongsun Jiu would carry such a thing with him. This is a contraindicated drug that has been banned. He didn't know how Gongsun Gu got it, but he knew that now he and the others were really in trouble.
Nangong Rong seemed to have thought of something at this time. He rushed to the kayak in a few steps, clashing at his throat desperately, trying to spit out the pill he had just swallowed. But he fussed for a long time, and all he spit out was fishy and unpleasant juice.
Nangong Rong's face became as ugly as ashes. He knew he was really carrying it. He looked at Gongsun Jiu with an angry face, and said murderously: "Gongsun Jiu, you are ruthless enough. I'm going to make you pay sooner or later. ”
Gongsun Jiuyun glanced at Nangong Rong lightly, and said calmly: "Okay, then I'll wait for the day when you make me pay." But first, you have to live to that day. That's right, Brother Nangong. ”
The conversation on the boat was clearly heard by Wei Yi, who was hiding in the water. He didn't know what Gongsun Jiu had done to Nangong Rong and Li Mingyu, but he guessed from the tone of their conversation that it must not be a good thing.
He lurked quietly at the bottom of the water, breathing slowly with the slender straw in his mouth. He's waiting. Wait for the perfect moment to change everything. This time, he had to succeed.
If Nangong Rong and Li Mingyu can't be rescued this time, then it will be even more difficult to rescue them. With someone like Mu Xinyu staying by Gongsun Jiu's side, he doesn't have the slightest gap to drill at all. Only now is the most rare time.
Everything went extremely smoothly. After a few moments, the kayak slowly sank into the water. Gongsun Jiu and the others, each holding a few driftwoods, slowly swam upstream.
Now that the matter had come to this, they simply gave up the idea of returning and insisted on going against the current. During this time, someone accidentally found the thick needles stuck in the middle of the driftwood. But he didn't care, and pulled out the needles and threw them into the water.
Wei Yi lurked beneath the man, secretly rejoicing. As the saying goes, "If you are not afraid of a god-like opponent, you are afraid of a pig-like teammate." ”。 There is such a character left in Gongsun Jiu's team, and he really feels sorry for Gongsun Jiu.
The time Wei Yi had to wait for soon came. The undercurrent in the depths of the river came as scheduled. It's just that in an instant, everyone didn't dare to move easily, just holding the driftwood, and didn't dare to move.
Gongsun Jiu looked at Nangong Rong not far away, and asked loudly, "What's going on?" Why is the water in this river so fierce? ”
Nangong Rong glanced at him and replied nonchalantly: "This place is like this, there are many strange places. Nothing to fuss about. ”
After he finished speaking, he didn't look at Gongsun Jiu, and was alone in a daze. Li Mingyu, who was beside him, asked in a low voice, "Nangong, where is the person you are talking about?" What do we do now? ”
Nangong Rong shook his head and said a little helplessly: "No way." If there is no way to expel them, you and I will all be at their mercy. ”
Just as they were talking to each other, a hand suddenly grabbed Nangong Rong's feet. Nangong Rong was startled, but he didn't panic. He sank into the water with composure and saw the reinforcements he had been waiting for.
It's just that the vision in the water is too dim, and he can't see the faces of the people who come clearly. The man waved his hand at him, gave him two daggers and two straws, and quietly retreated. Nangong Rong hurriedly put away these things and slowly surfaced.
His actions were seen by Mu Xinyu. Mu Xinyu was about to swim over to ask, when one of the people in Gongsun Jiu's team suddenly shouted. Everyone's eyes instantly converged on that person, including Mu Xinyu's.
But before they could see what was going on, the man was swept away by the river. And all this is just a blink of an eye. Gongsun Jiu was shocked, and hurriedly shouted to everyone: "Hold it tight, don't let go." This water flow is strange, and it must not be too long. We persevered and got through it quickly. ”
But what happened next was even more unexpected than he expected. A man not far from him suddenly screamed, and suddenly let go of the driftwood, and reached out as if to grasp something. But just in an instant, he was also swept away by the turbulent undercurrent.
Gongsun Jiu narrowed his eyes, and was about to take a closer look at what was going on, when Mu Xinyu suddenly shouted at him: "Be careful, get out of the way." ”
Gongsun Jiu didn't think about it, he pushed hard with his hand, and retreated sharply backwards for a distance. A dagger silently stabbed into where he had just been, startling him into a cold sweat.
Mu Xinyu was like a fish swimming at this time, plunged into the water, and chased after the person who had just made a sneak attack. The turbulent undercurrent doesn't seem to have much effect on him.
He was like a nimble water snake in the water, quickly catching up with a figure. That was Wei Yi who was waiting for the opportunity to make a move.
