Chapter Twenty-Three: The Great Chu Water Master

Xiao Yi's face flushed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Master, the disciple went to save Sister Yaoji first, and when the time comes, I will take my sister to visit the master and thank the master in person for saving his life." ”

Wu Zhiqi nodded, and said to the two: "Kyushu has appeared ****, since the two of you are the descendants of Dongyi Shuangxiong, you should take the revival of Dongyi as your own responsibility, no matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, you must not embarrass me and Peng Laowei." ”

Xiao Yi and Ji Ziyu looked uplifted, and said in unison: "I will definitely live up to the expectations of the master and the uncle." Wu Zhiqi's expression was gloomy, and he said in a dumb voice: "This is the best!" turned around and said to the little boy standing on the side: "You also go with Senior Brother Xiaoyi, I accompany my bad old man every day, but I have wronged you." ”

Xiao Tong was shocked, hurriedly knelt down, and said, "Master, I just want to accompany you for the rest of my life." Wu Zhiqi stood up, stroked the child's back, and sighed: "You have grown up with me since you were a child, and you have made progress as a teacher in the past few years, and it is time to tell you some things." ”

After a pause, he helped the boy up, and said warmly: "Ten years ago, the Yanwang failed to attack Zhou, the three armies were scattered, and Qin Xiao, the city lord of Cangwu, was surrounded by more than 10,000 chasing soldiers of Zong Zhou, and it happened that the old man was traveling nearby, in order to repay the kindness of the city lord of Qin Xiao in his early years, I went deep into the siege of the Zhou army and wanted to rescue the city lord of Qin Xiao, but at that time my skills were meager, and the city lord of Qin Xiao suffered a very serious internal injury. Over the years, I have been entrusted by the deceased to pull you up and grant you to avoid the water, hoping that you will one day be able to avenge your father. After saying that, he was sad and couldn't bear to speak.

The little boy trembled all over, burst into tears, and choked up: "The master's nurturing grace will be difficult for Qin Yan to repay for life." Wu Zhiqi turned his back, pressed the confusion, waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

The white clouds are flying, the river is rippling, and the black-beaked egret is crying crisply, glimpsing the waves. The river fish broke the waves, glided in the wind, and one or two flat boats in the distance cruised with the waves.

High in the blue sky, three heroic young men flew with long swords, their clothes fluttering, and their heroic posture was vigorous. The first handsome young man said with a smile: "Xiao Yi, you are really envious of being a brother, look at the gentle gesture of handing over the woman in black to the flower seller Sun Yi just now, which is even more twisted than that little lady." ”

One of the teenagers smiled and said: "Ji Ziyu, you can make fun of people, when it comes to Yanfu, how can you be as good as you, the famous commander of the East China Sea." Ji Ziyu laughed and said: "You kid, I don't know what charm I have, not to mention your adventures, even the wizard who has always done his own thing accepts you as a disciple, which is amazing." Xiao Yi smiled: "Could it be that the Great Commander is jealous." ”

Ji Ziyu laughed and said: "You kid solved the wizard's water-avoiding decision and broke the wizard's uncle's curved formation." I got the sorcerer Bo Zhen biography again, and I was in the limelight for a while, and I couldn't be jealous if I wanted to, but I am afraid that the real jealous person is Senior Brother Qin Yan. ”

Qin Yan has lived in Hongze for a long time, he is not good at words, his face turned red, and said: "Senior Brother Ziyu, don't make fun of me, my qualifications are dull, and naturally I can't inherit the mantle of the master." ”

While talking and laughing, suddenly there was a loud sound of flying stones in the air, Ji Ziyu restrained his smile, his face was solemn, and said, "How can the Chu thief appear here?"

Xiao Yi knows that he has been going around the river with Chu thieves all the year round, and he knows the truth of Chu thieves, since he said that it is a Chu thief warship, then he will not leave ten, and said in his heart: "Chu thieves have groped here, I don't know if it is to track the edict of the Son of Heaven, and now Sister Yao Ji is still in Surabaya Island, I don't know if Surabaya Island is safe?"

At the moment, I was very anxious and uneasy, and I was hurrying towards Surabaya Island.

The waves on the river surface were agitated, the wind was blowing, and after a while, the three of them had arrived at the waters around Surabaya Island, only to see five miles ahead, Surabaya Island was towering, the dust and smoke were filled, and the fire was everywhere.

In the distance, hundreds of warships surrounded the river, locking Surabaya Island in it. The flag on the ship is waving in the wind, and it is full of the word "Da Chu". You can faintly see the crowds of people and the swords. On a three-story ship, the main flag hunts, the gold characters on the side of the ship are dazzling, and the word "Jingyuan" is clear.

Ji Ziyu's face changed greatly, and he said suspiciously: "Isn't Jing Yuan in Donghai City? To deal with our 20,000 remnants, he even wants him to go out in person?"

Xiao Yi's heart jumped, and he looked into the distance, only to see that on the three-story ship command platform, an old man and a young man were sitting majestically, Hao Ran was Zheng Jiancheng and Jingtai. When he said in a deep voice: "It's not the old Wang Ba, but the little Wang Ba is here." ”

At that time, the Chu thief war drums were beating, the horn was blowing, countless thunderbolts, and the red feather rockets roared through the air, and the thunder hit the twelve camps on Surabaya Island, and the dust flew and the flames soared into the sky. In an instant, six large battalions had already been hit by rockets and stone shells, the flags were folded upside down, and the flames were raging.

Xiao Yi's heart has already mentioned his throat, what he doesn't want to happen has happened after all, and when his emotions are out of control, he wants to rush to the island and rescue Sister Yaoji.

Ji Ziyu grabbed to stop Xiao Yi, and said in a deep voice: "Now that the Chu thief is coming, the enemy situation is unknown, your impulse is tantamount to sending him to death, it is better to find out the truth of the Chu thief first, and make countermeasures." ”

Xiao Yi couldn't bear the anxiety in his heart at this moment and asked, "Ziyu, what is your good plan." Ji Ziyu said solemnly: "Since you and Senior Brother Qin Yan have learned to avoid water, you might as well dive underwater, approach the Chu thief sailor to find out the truth, and I will rush into Surabaya Island from the front to cover for the two of you." ”

Xiao Yi knew that under the crisis, there was no delay for a moment, and the three of them acted in two ways at the moment. Xiao Yi and Qin Yan dived and swam to the Chu army's battleship.

The waves on the river are turbulent, but the microwave is not alarming under the river, as far as the eye can see, the river water is turbid, and the fish roam. As the two of them slowly approached the Chu warship, the stone bullets and fire crossbows on the surface of the water became louder and louder, sharp and piercing.
