Chapter 39: The Unknown Dangers of the Deep Sea (3)
Seeing this, Shen Yanzhi and Chen Zhuangshi's faces changed greatly, and they couldn't help but take a few steps back, now the demon beasts have been provoked, and it looks like they are going to resist desperately, if they really attack them in groups, then they will definitely not be able to resist, the only way for them now is to try to stay away from these demon beasts, so that they may be able to temporarily avoid the edge.
"Bang!"
A loud noise came from the stern of the ship, and everyone turned their heads to look behind, only to see Tang Li's kick overturned a huge piece of wood on the ship, and smashed it on the head of the demon beast that wanted to climb onto the deck, causing the whole ship to tremble slightly.
The demon beast was kicked by Tang Li, "Poof!" Lying on the deck, it twisted its cheeks in pain, wailed, shook its two blade-sharp claws, and slowly slipped into the water.
When the rest of the demon beasts heard the sound, they stepped on the declining demon beasts and pounced on Tang Li, opening their sharp mouths to bite Tang Li, these demon beasts opened their big mouths, revealing their sharp teeth, and their sharp teeth glowed with cold light, as if they had been soaked in poison, once they were bitten, they would definitely die.
Seeing this, Shen Yanzhi's face turned pale, he pulled out the saber on Chen Zhuangshi's waist with a twist of his wrist, flew over, and when his body flickered, he suddenly pierced the demon beast that wanted to pounce on Tang Carp, and a cyan air flow spread out from Shen Yanzhi's palm and extended into the long sword, bursting out in an instant, "Bang!" The beast's head was shattered with a bang, and blood and internal organs gushed out, killing it in an instant.
With a light tap of his toes, Shen Yanzhi drew a graceful arc in the air, and he quickly returned to Tang Li's side, blocking Tang Li's front and firmly protecting Tang Li's behind.
At the same time, the demon beast that had already died, plunged into the sea with a pop, stirring up a huge wave, splashing the two of them with salty water, and Tang Carp coughed even more embarrassedly.
Seeing this, Shen Yanzhi hurriedly withdrew his long sword, reached out to wipe away the water splashes on Tang Li's cheeks, and said worriedly: "Sister, are you okay?" Have you been bitten? ”
"Ahem, ahem!" Tang Li coughed violently, tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, she shook her head, and said with a bright smile: "It's okay, you don't have to worry about me, I know how to deal with them!" ”
After saying that, she turned to Chen Zhuangshi in the distance and shouted loudly: "Brother Chen! Extinguish all the lights on board, including the torches in the hands of the soldiers! The monsters are chasing the light! ”
Shen Yanzhi and Chen Zhuangshi glanced at each other, a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes, they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Tang Li's gourd, but he still did as he said, and quickly extinguished all the light, and the whole ship instantly became pitch black, connecting with the sea, leaving only the pearls above the heads of the demon beasts fluttering back and forth.
Seeing this, Tang Li pulled Shen Yanzhi to hide in a hidden small corner to observe the surrounding situation, a pair of big eyes were rolling around, and his face was full of excitement, and there was no panic just now.
"You know, the demon beasts are a lot quieter now, most of the demon beasts we saw just now are gathered in the stern of the ship, and the stern is the brightest place in the whole ship, which means that they rely on the light to find prey, if I guess correctly, the small lantern that glows on their heads should also have this effect!
So, we just need to turn off the lights and hide in the dark, and when they can't find any trace of us, they will naturally swim somewhere else, so that we will not be safe? Hahaha, I'm so smart! ”
Tang Li said happily, and did not forget to reach out and pat Shen Yanzhi's arm as he spoke, with an excited face, as if the appearance she was frightened just now was just an illusion.
"I see, Sister, you're so smart!" Shen Yanzhi nodded and said, with a look of appreciation, as he spoke, he raised his right hand and pinched Tang Li's nose.
Tang Li snorted proudly, tilted his head very stinky and said, "Of course, the so-called ginger is still old and spicy, you have to learn from me." ”
Looking at Tang Li's funny appearance, Shen Yanzhi finally couldn't help laughing, and his white and delicate face suddenly became vivid, and he looked extremely handsome under the faint moonlight, making people unable to take their eyes off it.
Time passed slowly, and just as Tang Carp and Shen Yanzhi were frolicking, the sea gradually calmed down as Tang Carp said, the surroundings became silent, and the demon beasts on the sea were gone.
Seeing this, Shen Yanzhi took a deep breath of relief and relieved himself, after all, if he really wanted to fight with this group of demon beasts, they would not be able to take advantage of this boatload of people at all, and if they didn't make it, they would die in this nameless place, and they might become the rations of the demon beasts.
And Tang Li saw Shen Yanzhi's expression, she couldn't help pursing her lips, lowered her head and was silent, but a light smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she was secretly happy in her heart, she finally got rid of those demon beasts, and she could finally sleep well.
However, just when everyone relaxed their vigilance and thought it was safe, suddenly, a small figure leaned out of the cabin and took a look at Shen Yanzhi who was squatting at the stern of the boat, and Shen Yanzhi's face froze in fright.
"Brother, what are you doing here?"
As soon as Shen Nian, who didn't know the situation, came out of the hatch and saw Shen Yanzhi and Tang Li, he couldn't help but feel dissatisfied, and immediately shouted and asked, what was even more shocking was that under the darkness, her neck was glowing with a faint blue light.
It's not good, it's the jade pendant that's glowing!
"Roar! ---”
"Get out of the way!"
Shen Yanzhi was horrified in his heart, he quickly got up and drew his sword, and shouted at Shen Nian, before the words fell, the lurking demon beast suddenly burst out, and a huge wave rushed towards Shen Nian, Shen Nian's face changed, and he forgot to move his steps in place for a while, and he didn't even make a sound.
Seeing that the fangs of the demon beast were about to pierce Shen Nian's throat, at the last moment, he saw a long sword fly over with a "whoosh", and fiercely inserted it into the head of the demon beast that was attacking violently, and the blood sprayed out directly, and Shen Yanzhi came to the demon beast in a blink of an eye, he held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and picked it up hard, and a sharp sword qi instantly burst out from Shen Yanzhi's hand, and the demon beast under his feet was cut into two at once, and the flesh and blood flew sideways.
Immediately, Shen Yanzhi quickly pulled out his sword, jumped to Shen Nian's side, grabbed her arm, and pulled her back into the cabin.
At this time, Tang Li also reacted, she quickly ran to Chen Zhuangshi's side, she just got closer, she smelled a fishy smell rushing towards her, only to see that the body of the demon beast was torn by a group of demon beasts, and the turbid blood gushed out from the blood hole.
Tang Li, Chen Zhuangshi and many other soldiers were all stunned, they all looked at the scene in front of them in amazement, and their hearts almost jumped out of their throats.
"Brother Chen, let's leave quickly!" Tang Li said eagerly, "We must get out of here as soon as possible, otherwise we won't be able to leave when the demon beasts come with the smell of blood." ”
"Good! Let's retreat! Chen Zhuangshi hurriedly agreed, and then quickly led everyone off the deck, as the big ship sailed quickly westward, the turbulent sea returned to calm again, until half an hour later, the sea was still peaceful, and there was no trace of the demon beast, and everyone was completely relieved.
When everything was over, when Tang Li said goodbye to Chen Zhuangshi and returned to the room, he happened to pass by Shen Yanzhi's room, his door was wide open at the moment, and when he looked over, he saw Shen Yanzhi and Shen Nian sitting quietly on the stool opposite each other, both of them had solemn expressions on their faces, lowered their heads, and said nothing, not knowing what they were thinking.
Tang Li couldn't help but feel strange, the brother and sister had just reconciled, and there was a conflict again?
Sighing in her heart and shaking her head, she walked to Shen Yanzhi and stood still, slowly poured a cup of tea, raised her head and drank it all, and then poured two cups of tea, one to Shen Nian and one to Shen Yanzhi, and said in an embarrassing atmosphere: "Come, drink tea, drink tea." ”
Shen Yanzhi saw Tang Li like this, and it was not good to continue to be angry with Shen Nian, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a helpless smile, took the tea she handed over, and drank it all.
Seeing this, Shen Nian also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Tang Li's method worked, she hurriedly picked up her cup of tea, handed it to Shen Yanzhi in a similar way, and said flatteringly: "Brother drink tea." ”
Shen Yanzhi raised his eyes and glanced at Shen Nian quietly, and did not take her teacup, but gently covered her hand, and said lightly: "I told you to stay in the room honestly and don't come out, you didn't listen, do you know that you almost lost your life just now?" I can save you this time, but what about next time? In short, you must remember today's lesson, and don't act so recklessly. ”
Shen Nian heard Shen Yanzhi's reproach, her face was suddenly filled with a look of grievance, she pouted and replied aggrievedly: "I already know that I am wrong, I will be obedient next time, and I will not cause trouble again." ”
Looking at Shen Nian's well-behaved appearance and admitting his mistakes, Shen Yanzhi didn't know how much she listened, her reckless nature was not a day or two, and she fought with Tang Carp indiscriminately last time, and this time he almost suffered if he didn't listen to the arrangement, but fortunately he shot in time, otherwise, I'm afraid that Shen Nian's little life would be in it, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, reached out and patted Shen Nian's head, and said softly: "Remember, don't be so impulsive in the future!" ”
"Hmm!" Shen Nian nodded very obediently and vigorously.
"Huh? Do you have a broken hand? ”
Tang Li sat bored and watched the play, and suddenly noticed the red blood flowing from the back of Shen Yanzhi's hand in a trance, and couldn't help but say with concern.
Hearing this, Shen Yanzhi looked at the back of his hand, then shook his head, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it should have been accidentally broken just now!" With that, he covered up his injuries and pretended to be nothing.
Seeing this, Tang Li didn't think much about it, she got up and came to Shen Yanzhi's side, pulled Shen Yanzhi's wrist to her eyes and checked it carefully, only to find that his hands were a little cold, and the skin on the back of his hand was faintly bruised, and there were already some signs of ulceration, obviously caused by being torn by those demon beasts just now, which looked shocking, and couldn't help but make Tang Li's brows tighten, and his face was full of solemnity.
"It's not going to be toxic, is it?" Tang Li held Shen Yanzhi's hand and looked up and asked.
"Sister, don't worry, my hand is only slightly bruised, and my body has no symptoms of poisoning, I just need to apply some medicine for a few days!" Seeing Tang Li's expression like this, Shen Yanzhi immediately comforted.
