Chapter 249: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
With an iron rod on his shoulders and leather boots on his feet, Jian Qi leaped onto the raised rock and bent slightly to inspect the surroundings. He didn't like this kind of leather boots very much, they were stuffy and hard, and they didn't fit as well as the cloth shoes in his hometown. But no matter how good the cloth shoes were, they couldn't support him to walk through such distant mountains and rivers. If only I had taken the time to learn how to make cloth shoes before I went out. The Sword Seeker suddenly thought in his head.
Contrary to his dissatisfaction with his shoes, the right amount of heaviness on his shoulders made Kenqi feel safe. His clothes always changed with the places he traveled, and his words were also influenced by local customs, but this iron rod he had always carried with him since he left home. However, many of the accessories that matched the iron rods were made by borrowing other people's blacksmith shops along the way, and many of them were sold by him as travel expenses. Those are just accessories, as long as the spindle is there, the accessories can be recreated, just like as long as people are alive, everything can be slowly figured. Try not to fight to break the net, it is his way of life.
But leaving room does not mean that there is no inaction, and when it comes to making a move, no one will draw a sword faster than him. Speaking of drawing the sword, in fact, in addition to the stick he carried, Jian Qi also carried a cloth backpack similar to a blanket, and an outstretched hilt could be seen in the backpack. Interestingly, the hilt was not the recognizable hilt of the Delphinium, nor was it the kind of hilt of the Knight's Sword, it was a wooden one. What kind of blade can a wooden hilt carry? If it is a blade of gold and iron, I am afraid that the gravitational force of a few swings will break the wooden hilt, unless the sword itself is a wooden sword. A wooden sword can't kill a river monster.
"One last confirmation, are you sure your method will work?" The cat in the treetops had a sword pinned to its back, and the bag on its back was made by the seven sword workers, but the lumberjack was not a leather worker after all, and this bag would not be used a second time. It only needs to be used once, because when the sword is unsheathed, it takes away life, and there is only one life, whether it is a king or a beggar. Therefore, it does not need to be unsheathed a second time.
The sword-seeker looked up at his companion, "Foolproof, I can't talk about it." Nine out of ten is stable, and it should be much worse. Mr. Qi had already told me about the monster, and the trap he had prepared for me had been prepared. It is estimated that he made this kind of plan, and he didn't plan to deal with the monster head-on. It's okay, everyone's style is different, and he is more flexible when he gives him full authority. ”
"What do you mean, do I still have to cooperate with your actions?" the cat fairy stroked his beard, and there was a hint of mockery in his tone. He said it was just a joke, and he wouldn't want to let Kairas take charge of the action.
"Definitely. It's just that since the final blow has to be done by the down, it is more convenient to arrange it from the down. Mao Daxian you are willing to help, I am very grateful, and I will never dare to have the meaning of support. Jian Qi said as he stuck his iron rod into the ground at his feet and made a gesture against the tree. In the final analysis, they have only known each other within ten days, and there is no tacit understanding, and Jian Qi is obviously much more cautious than Batu.
The cat fairy pursed his lips, and lost the idea of continuing to tease the other party, so he simply leaned down on the branch and curled up leisurely, "I want to do things at dusk, I'll sleep for a while." ”
Kenqi made a gesture of please, and took the weapon back from the ground. He had to inspect the traps set up again to make sure he was in order. Although he said it lightly, it was impossible for him not to be a little nervous when he relied on this person and a cat to deal with the mountain spirit and river monster that could command the wolves. Thinking of this, the sword seeker involuntarily put his hand on the wooden hilt of the sword on his back, and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart after feeling the touch of the wood. It was this action that made the wooden sword reveal its back pocket a little bit, and you could see that the ingot-shaped sword grid was clearly engraved with two words that were the same as the Feiyan Sword, the green runes.
Time is ticking. Jian Qi, who was sitting at the water's edge, could faintly see the fire on the construction site downstream of the river, and the dredging of the river was very smooth, and it was estimated that it would be completed in a few days. The premise is that workers are not harassed. Similarly, Atta, who is now on standby in Jiefa Town, is estimated to be on duty at this time, which means that it is time for him to start moving, and if it is too late, the river monster's attention will not be diverted.
The river monster is not something that can be baited by tying a stick to the bait, and besides, there is no reason why that guy would be impulsive at this time. Since the lure doesn't work, then the matter has to go the other way. Jian Qi reached out and picked up the stones piled up beside him, weighed them, and then threw them into the river with his backhand. The stone floated two or three times on the surface of the water, and sank with a thud. Not far from where the stone had sunk, another stone was thrown into the water by the sword-seeker.
There is a way to sink into the sea, which is used to describe the lack of news or the impact of investment. But that's because the sea is bigger than a stone's small, and for a river, the waves stirred up by larger rocks are enough to bring about a considerable reaction in the slow-flowing zone. The frightened fish and shrimp scurried helplessly at the bottom of the water, one by one the stones fell to the surface of the water, and the ripples collided with each other, causing even greater chaos.
Ken Qi seemed to be tired of this kind of game, at first he sat and threw it, and when he was happy to throw, he stood up and threw it, and when he was not happy to throw a stone, he opened his bow left and right and threw it with both hands, and it was not enough to throw small pieces, so he simply lifted a stone the size of a human head and threw it into the middle of the river! The sound of the stones falling into the water and the crackling sound of the waves hitting each other completely stirred up this quiet dusk, and the birds in the forest fled. Is he crazy? I'm afraid it's the opposite, what Ken Qi did was not only not crazy, but he did it on purpose. In his hometown, in the face of a closed enemy, the army will send people to the door of the other party to shout and curse, this is the same reason.
The black shadow gradually expands from the bottom of the river, and the waves accompanied by stones falling into the water resemble a sea monster emerging from the waves. Of course, the river monster is not as huge as its counterparts in the sea, but when the sturdy body with huge one-eyed eyes floated up from the water, Jian Qi couldn't help but stop the movements in his hand. He threw the last stone shard in his hand into the river monster's eye, only to be deflected by one of the monster's four arms.
"Human, you are looking for death!" the big mouth in the belly let out a terrifying roar, and the monster that rose from the middle of the river began to rush towards the riverbank.
Faced with such a scene, the corner of the sword seeker's mouth showed a smile, and this is what he wanted. Reaching out and picking up the iron rod, Jian Qier didn't say a word, turned around and ran towards the open woodland behind him. And when running, don't forget to use the tip of the stick to sweep the mud and gravel from the ground and hit the monster behind you. This made the river monster even more angry, her arms waving, and curse words coming out of her mouth.
