Yanhe Yice 2
When Yi Ce was very young, he knew that he was not from Yanjiao, but the same as Yi Si, who moved from another continent, the Wangcheng Yi family.
At this point, the Yanjiao people have never hidden it, including his father's affairs, and Shao Xuan has never hidden it from him.
Born in the Yanhe River Valley, the Yanjiao people were still very friendly to him, although Shao Xuan confiscated him as an apprentice, but he also taught him a lot of things, and in Yi Ce's heart, he regarded Shao Xuan as a master.
After a brief pause, the fleet of the Longboat tribe set sail again.
With Shao Xuan's entrustment, the people of the Changzhou tribe also took good care of this special guest.
The fleet will sail along the river, some days before going out to sea.
At night, a flotilla of torch-lit boats sails on the river, which, when viewed from above, looks like a stream of fire flowing on the river.
The sight of the fire in the boat river is still known to the large, medium and small tribes along the river, which is the signature sight of the longboat fleet.
The wind was strong and howling like a beast's roar, and the sailors drank their home-brewed ale and sang at the top of their voices, their tanned faces tinged with a hot red.
Just as the hunting party of Flamehorn sings hunting songs before hunting, so the people of the longboat sing songs to celebrate their voyage again.
However, unlike the tragic lyrics of the fan in the Yanjiao hunting song, the lyrics of the longship's sailing song are more inspirational, enthusiastic, and warm, and the crew will be very excited when they sing it. They enjoy life on board and enjoy riding the waves.
Under the torches, there were clashing wine glasses, loud and noisy crews, and warriors quietly wiping the blades of their swords.
Not far from Yi Ce, there was also an old warrior who didn't know which tribe, chanting in a low voice with a simple musical instrument made of bones, skins, and animal tendons with tribal characteristics.
When they finally reached the mouth of the sea, some of the tribesmen in the fleet who had seen the sea for the first time roared excitedly.
At the mouth of the sea, there were other ships of the Longboat tribe waiting, and after the two teams met, they rested for a while, and then set off again, this time to really go to sea.
Life at sea is not easy for other people, even if it is a trading caravan that often goes to sea, may not be able to adapt to it.
The people of the black bear caravan told Yi Ce that every time they sailed across the sea, they had to shrink in a circle, from a fat and strong fat bear to a thin bear, of course, the physical burden is secondary, there are too many uncertain risk factors at sea, and every time they go to sea, they gamble with their lives. However, the huge benefits of trade made them willing to endure this torment.
Yi Ce just smiled and listened to the chatter of these experienced caravans every time.
This morning, Yi Ce opened his eyes and looked at the sea, his brows furrowed, and the fingers that naturally hung down at his side moved.
Seeing this, the slave next to him immediately looked around vigilantly.
The diminutive but very shrewd orc struggled to erect the thorns on his back, and not only him, but the other orc slaves around Yi Ce all reacted in the same way.
"Dangerous!"
Soon, the people of the Longboat tribe also discovered something unusual. After all, people who have lived at sea for a long time can feel the approach of danger more early than people from other tribes.
Woo –
The horn sounded.
"There's a sea beast!!"
"Merchant ships stay inside, warships stay outside!"
"Prepare the repellent medicine! Prepare the archers!"
Although nervous, the people of Changzhou acted in an orderly manner, and they seemed to have rich experience in dealing with it.
Some of the people in the caravan who often traveled between the two continents did not forget to brag at this time, "Sailing on the sea, I have encountered a lot of giant sea beasts, but sometimes it is very troublesome to meet those sea beasts who are curious about the fleet, we have encountered it once, that sea beast, this- what a big tooth! But I cut a large piece of meat off it, tsk, it tastes good! The most troublesome thing is to run into a group of sea beasts, in that case it may capsize a few boats......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard someone from the Longboat tribe shouting, "Sea beast herd!"
The man of the caravan cursed, and did not care to brag, his face was extremely ugly, and let the rest of the caravan into the cabin, while he himself quickly found a strong place to hold on.
When the fast-moving ship turns sharply, or collides with the sea beast, if you don't hold it firmly and don't stand firmly, it is very likely that you will be thrown out, and in that emergency, no one will save it, and it will be too late to save it.
"Master, get into the cabin!" said to Yi Ce nervously.
Yi Ce looked at the figures of the sea beasts that appeared on the surface of the sea, and frowned slightly, "No need. ”
Instead of stepping into the cabin, Yi Ce walked over to the nearest warrior of the Longboat Tribe.
The warrior was a little surprised to see Yi Ce coming, but he also remembered the leader's advice, this was the person who the Great Elder of Yanjiao asked them to take care of, so his tone of voice slowed down a bit, "There are sea beasts coming nearby, they have become curious about the fleet, and they may chase the fleet for a while, just in case, please enter the cabin arranged for you immediately, we will rescue you in a critical moment." ”
"Thank you, but please let the Logger Leader know that I have a way to keep these sea beasts out of the fleet. Yi Ce said.
When the warrior of Changzhou heard this, he was stunned, and his first reaction was disbelief, thinking that this young man was talking big, but for the sake of the other party being an important person, he still went to the main ship to find the leader Mu Shu and relayed Yi Ce's words.
Soon, Timber came, the leader of the Longboat tribe and the leader of the seafaring fleet. If there was a way to get those sea beasts to give up chasing the fleet and avoid a bitter battle, it would be the best.
"Do you really have a way to get those sea beasts to give up chasing the fleet?" asked Mu Fell, in a deep voice.
"You can't make them give up chasing the fleet right away, but you can get them off the line. Yi Ce replied.
If you don't understand the logging, isn't it a voluntary abandonment to deviate from the fleet?
"Chief, the sea beasts are getting closer! they're speeding up!" a warrior urged nearby.
The closer they got to the fleet, the more excited the sea beasts became, as if they had found some fun toy.
Yi Ce took off the animal skin cloak on his body, asked the slave next to him to take out four jade stones the size of a baby's fist and four fire crystals the size of a little fingernail from the animal skin bag, looked up at the lookout on the mast, and said to the tall and sturdy half-orc slave Gray Crossbow next to him, "Send me there." ”
Seeing that Yi Ce's target was the lookout on the mast, and was about to ask if he needed their help, he saw Yi Ce leap up and stand on the palm of the tall orc slave, and then the slave jerked his arm and threw Yi Ce out.
Cast out......
Longboat Warrior: "......" this person really grew up in Yanjiao, and acted in the direct and rough style of Yanjiao.
"Chief, do we really have to believe him, although he is of the Yi family's bloodline, he grew up in the Yanjiao tribe, and besides, the Yi family has declined. One of the longboat warriors whispered to the woodcutter.
"Have you forgotten? He is still an apprentice brought out by Yanjiao Shao Xuan, although he has not publicly admitted it, but as far as I know, he has been following Yanjiao's Shao Xuanxue skills. Just let me see how much he learned from Shao Xuan!!"
At the mention of Yanjiao Shao Xuan, several longboat warriors around him felt a pang in their hearts.
Shao Xuan of Yanjiao is the only one who neither the royal city nor the desert rock tomb dares to mess with!
It can be said that with Shao Xuan's presence, Wangcheng would not dare to openly wage war with the tribe, and the Yanhe River Valley was also a place where Wangcheng and Desert Yanling did not dare to start.
Since it is the person brought out by Shao Xuan of Yanjiao, it shouldn't be too bad. The people of the long boat thought to themselves.
However, Timber did not pin all his hopes on Yi Ce, leaving the fleet's longship warriors ready to continue their previous plan of action if Yi Ce failed.
At this time, Yi Ce, who was already standing on the lookout, threw out the four jade stones and four fire crystals in his hand in eight directions.
Although the order in which the four jade stones and the four fire crystals were ejected was different, it was as if they had been carefully calculated, and they touched the surface of the sea at the same time!
At the moment when the eight spars fell into the water at the same time, Yi Ce raised his two hands.
A violent, bizarre wave of power suddenly emerged.
Whew-
An orange-red arc of fire mixed with white was right in front of Yi Ce, and it burst out of the air!
In front of the arc of fire, there was a fire there, orange-red above and white below, half orange-red and half white. At the same time, behind Yi Ce, there were three shadows elongated.
The flames that appeared, coupled with the three cast shadows, just formed the totemic shape of the Yi family! This is the Yi family, that is, the totem of the former Yi tribe!
The moment the totem appeared, the powerful power fluctuations spread out, as if a huge wave was suddenly set off, the momentum was terrifying, and it seemed that there was an incomparable force that rapidly expanded to all corners of the surrounding area in a very short period of time, making people's blood tremble!
The flames were fluttering, and the orange-red and white-colored flames in the front of the totem were even more dazzling than the rising sun.
Such a big movement naturally attracted the attention of more people in the fleet, and the people who were originally in the cabin poked their heads out in surprise after feeling this power fluctuation, and looked up, and this look was so startled that their eyes were about to burst out of their sockets.
The huge totem has an ancient meaning, and the shocking aura seems to spread to every corner of this world, and it also envelops the entire fleet under it.
"That's ......"
"Yi Family Totem!"
"Yi family totem pattern! No, it should be called the Yi family crest! There is a Yi family in the fleet?!" The nobles of the royal city no longer call this a totem, but a family emblem.
"Didn't you say that the Yi family had declined?
People who often come to Wangcheng know that the person in charge of the Yi family is the person who used to be a branch of the Yi family, not the main line. It is said that the people of the main vein are dead, scattered, and the best people in the main vein of the Yi family have suffered heavy losses because of some things, and most of them are no longer there.
The grass, the divination, and the bones, once known as the three strongest divination skills of the Yi family, have gradually disappeared, and now in the royal city, you will see the Yi family using coins, jade, and other divination techniques, but it is difficult to see the three ancient divination skills again.
It stands to reason that the person in charge of divination in the Yi family, that is, the person with the highest status in the entire Yi family, must master at least one of the three ancient divination techniques. But in fact, the person who is in charge of divination now may not be able to do anything, so it is only a half-hearted person.
The inheritance has been broken.
In the eyes of many people, the Yi family is already in a state of semi-extinction.
It's just that they never thought that they would see such a strange scene on this trade trip.
"It's the Yi family, that's right!"
"It's the first time I've seen such a big Yi family totem!"
"Such a huge totem...... Who did the Yi family?" exclaimed an old soldier.
The orange-red flames rolled, and a strange aura filled the area, and at a certain moment, all the scenes seen by the naked eye seemed to be distorted, so fast that many people thought they were dazzled.
Mu Fell's eyebrows jumped up again and again, and the green tendons under the skin flicked.
Strong!
With this momentum just now, with the huge totem that this kid made...... is worthy of being an apprentice taught by Shao Xuan!
Especially the people of the Black Bear Caravan, they can be said to be the most familiar with Wangcheng in the fleet, and they have also seen a lot of Yi family members, before the Yi family had an accident, they were given an unfathomable sense of mystery, but now, that young person, but it makes them feel more mysterious and unpredictable. The moment the huge Yi family totem appeared just now, they had a creepy feeling, goosebumps all over their bodies, but they couldn't say why. It's just amazing!
However, what shocked the crew of the longship and the people of the caravan the most was that the sea beast herd that was originally swimming straight towards the fleet turned around!
"This ......"
"Those sea beasts, why did they turn?"
"Are they afraid of the Yi family totem?"
"It doesn't feel like it. ”
"How do I feel that those sea beasts seem to have suddenly gone to another target?"
Mu Fa watched the sea beasts turn and go in the other direction, and was surprised, when he heard Yi Ce shouting: "Take this opportunity, leave!
Wood felling came back to his senses, and he didn't bother to think about what Yi Ce had done to make the sea beasts turn, and the top priority was to let the fleet leave safely.
The convoy continued to sail along the same course, and on the way, the sea beasts did not swim towards them again, but went in the other direction one by one, as if to chase the fleet, but they never came in their direction, and kept deviating, and chasing, and deviating, until they lost interest in the fleet and really left.
And in this process, the huge Yi totem has been hanging above the fleet, like a protective umbrella, enveloping the fleet under it.
When it was confirmed that it was safe, the totem disappeared, and the strange power fluctuations around him also disappeared completely, and Yi Ce also came down from the lookout on the mast.
With a stomach full of doubts, Mu Ce asked Yi Ce, "What are you doing?"
"No, it's not a divination technique, it's a formation. Yi Ce replied.
"Formation? What is that? Did Shao Xuan teach you too?"
"That's right. ”
"Then why did those sea beasts suddenly avoid the fleet?"
"Because in their eyes, the direction they are pursuing is the direction of the fleet, but in fact it is deviated, but they do not know it, and they will only feel that they will not be able to catch up, until they feel tired, and give up chasing the fleet and leave. ”
Logging feels magical. Obviously the fleet is here, why would those sea beasts chase in the wrong direction?
Although he didn't fully understand, Mu Shu was even more jealous of Yi Ce in his heart, and as for how powerful Shao Xuan of Yanjiao was, it became more and more immeasurable.
And Yi Ce, in fact, when he knew the formation, he also felt the wonder and mystery of heaven and earth.
The formation method was calculated by Shao Xuan based on the boundless river and several natural formations discovered later.
A long time ago, the boundless river that once trapped the Yanjiao tribe was actually not as wide and boundless as it seemed to the naked eye, there was a huge array naturally formed by heaven and earth, and the river that could be crossed in a day or two would take a long time for those who entered the array.
There is also a killing array in the giant array, and even if a huge sea beast encounters a killing array, it will be vulnerable to a single attack, shattering bones in an instant, and the blood mist will disperse.
It was a huge array naturally formed by heaven and earth, containing the vast power of heaven and earth, beyond the reach of human power, but even if it was just a corner of it, the power it showed was already shocking.
Just like the trick that Yi Ce used just now, it was enough to deter the entire fleet.
The danger had passed, and the wood felling continued to direct the navigation on the main ship, while Yi Ce walked to the side of the ship. At the moment when he sacrificed the totem, a voice seemed to come from the depths of the sea, over and over again: Come here, I have something for you.
But no one else had heard that voice.
Yi Ce walked over to the side of the boat and looked at the water below. As the fleet sails, the surface of the sea ripples.
Suddenly, Yi Ce's pupils shrank.
In his sight, a wooden string floated from beneath the surface of the sea.
At the current speed of the ship, the wooden skewer should have been left behind quickly, but the truth is that the wooden skewer seems to move on its own and follows it all the time.
Yi Ce asked the man in the long boat for a salvage tool to scoop up the wooden skewers.
This wooden string is composed of a number of small pieces of wood cut into various shapes, most of which are the size of a fingernail, drilled in the middle, and then connected into a string with straw rope, and finally the straw rope is connected end to end to form a closed loop. On every piece of wood, there are patterns.
Yi Ce held the wooden string in his hand, his four fingers naturally curled towards the palm of his hand, and his thumb was placed on one of the engraved pieces of wood as if he were conscious, and plucked it like a bead. Immediately, Yi Ce felt the fluctuations of power that can only occur when divination!
It's a ...... Divination tools?
Which predecessor of the Yi family left this? I don't know how long I soaked in the seawater, but it was not damaged at all.
In the days that followed, Yi Ce had been studying the wooden skewer he had fished up, and he usually wrapped it around his wrist. The more he researched, the more sure Yi Ce was that the original owner of this wooden string must be a very powerful Yi family, and his divination ability must be quite strong!
Every piece of wood, every piece of wood, and every pattern on the wooden string contains the essence of divination skills! This wooden string is the crystallization of the lifelong learning of that senior!
It's just that where is the owner of such a wooden skewer? The wooden skewer was given to him by the other party? Why did he give it to himself? Yi Ce couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't figure it out.
The sound he heard when he sacrificed the totem never appeared again, even if the fleet encountered a small group of sea beasts again, Yi Ce took the initiative to ask for help again, and when he sacrificed the totem for the second time, he didn't hear that sound again, as if it had completely disappeared.
As the days passed, the flotilla finally reached the coast.
The crew cheered for their safe arrival, and the caravan and adventurers disembarked from the ship one by one, and then left separately.
Rejecting the invitation of the Longboat people, Yi Ce took eight slaves and headed in the direction of the royal city.
Wangcheng, I, have returned.
