“……”

Shen Lang was speechless, looking at Xiao Wu, who was holding a cable and grinning and walking towards him.

"Uncle, don't think about it! How dangerous it is to jump into the sea at night! ”

Xiao Wu is not very old, he looks like he is in his early twenties, but he is also an old pirate who has followed Chen Yuniang and her father for many years, and he can play suona well.

Now it seems that Xiao Wu really deserves to be the backbone old thief on the Flying Fish, in addition to being able to play suona, he also has a good rope skill.

Not to mention that the rope can be dragged back by flying ropes from afar, the rope can still be knotted in the air, and the tied fancy makes Shen Lang unable to start for a while, and he doesn't know how to untie it.

"It's not that I can't think about it, I just want to swim all of a sudden. Brother Wu, you untie the rope for me first......"

"Uncle, it's not suitable for swimming in the sea at night, it's too dangerous. You'd better go back and accompany the shopkeeper. ”

"What's at stake? It's not me boasting, if I think I'm the second best swimmer, no one dares to call this whole Flying Fish the first. ”

Xiao Wu didn't laugh at him for bragging, he just shook his head and said with a grin:

"No, I can't. I don't know how many old fur dogs who rely on their swimming skills are taken away by the dragon lord when they go to sea at night. No matter how good your swimming skills are, you can't go to the sea at night. If you want to swim, you'll have to wait until dawn. Today is my vigil, and if my uncle has an accident under my nose, the shopkeeper is afraid that he will not pick my skin. ”

Shen Lang said that Xiao Wu just didn't let go, so he had no choice but to accept it and go back to accompany Chen Yuniang.

Xiao Wu came over and helped him untie the rope on his body.

"Brother Wu, your rope skills are good!"

"Generally, far less than the shopkeeper of the Blackwater. His rope trick is a must. ”

"The shopkeeper of the Black Water Hu is a talented skill, Brother Wu, you are a real skill that has been practiced hard, it is different. What, Brother Wu, can you teach me? ”

"Uncle is also interested in rope skills?"

"Well, it's an art, it's worth studying......"

Xiao Wu squeezed his eyebrows:

"Uncle, don't you want to learn to use it on the shopkeeper?"

Shen Lang looked serious:

"How is that possible? Brother Wu, don't talk nonsense, I'm a serious person......"

"Haha, it's nothing practical for the shopkeeper, but you can think about it, uncle, the shopkeeper's innate divine power, ordinary ropes can't bind her."

"I really didn't think about it that way......"

"Hehe, it doesn't matter. It's rare that my uncle is interested in a side path like me, so Xiao Wu can't help but know how to lift ......."

At that moment, Xiao Wuzhen taught Shen Lang to play rope with his heart.

In fact, Xiao Wu's rope trick is really not a simple side road, but a combination of whip method, half martial arts and half juggling skills.

Any rope, in Xiao Wu's hands, can be turned into a murder weapon, but also used as a variety of auxiliary tools. Tie up people and take people, take things remotely, seize weapons, fly eaves and walk on walls, and even shoot with ropes, and use ropes to roll various weapons to attack remotely......

All kinds of usages made Xiao Wu play flowers.

Xiao Wu's craft obviously requires understanding and imagination. Hand-eye coordination, spatial awareness, and distance are also required. Coincidentally, Shen Lang happens to have this series of qualities.

Coupled with the assistance of the "Demon Taming Technique" Xiao Yue, it only took him an hour to learn the various tricks of Xiao Wu's rope art, and what he lacked was only proficiency.

"The shopkeeper really knows talents, my uncle is really a genius, and he actually learned the art of eating so quickly......"

Xiao Wu sighed continuously:

"I have nothing to teach my uncle, my uncle only needs to practice more in the future, and sooner or later his rope skills will surpass me."

Shen Langle said:

"Thanks to Brother Wu's careful teaching."

Xiao Wu smiled casually:

"It's not worth mentioning. In fact, these days, for us low-grade martial artists, it is still more practical to have muskets. Although it is a bit troublesome to reload the musket, even if it is a sixth-rank or even fifth-rank martial artist, one shot will have to kill him. I heard that my uncle is a sharpshooter? It's a lot more powerful than rope juggling. ”

Is it over? Pi smiled and looked at Shen Lang:

"Okay, uncle, it's time for you to go back to accompany the shopkeeper. Tomorrow is the day of the 'Heroes Conference', and every major event in the shopkeeper will always be excited. In the past, she asked her brothers to drink and break her wrists, but now ......"

He squeezed his eyebrows and gave Shen Lang a "you know" look.

Shen Lang shook his head helplessly, thanked Xiao Wu a few more words, and then turned back to the captain's room.

A moment later.

A little white cat sneakily came out of the captain's quarters with a half-bald brush in its mouth.

It landed silently, averting the sight of the pirates on duty, and came to the side of the ship, jumping towards the sea.

When it was about to touch the sea, the little white cat suddenly disappeared into the air, leaving a half-bald brush to fall to the surface of the sea and drift with the waves.

Soon, the sea water below the brush was slight, and a figure appeared in the water.

It is the sinking waves.

"Sister Yu still has to practice for an hour, and there is enough time to verify her ability!"

Shen Lang dived underwater, raised his hand to grab the fine pen, and the half-bald brush immediately turned into a dragon and snake brand, attaching the back of his left hand.

Take back some fine brushwork, and the sinking waves will not surface, just feel quietly in the water.

He couldn't breathe through his mouth and nose, but there was a trace of cool breath, seeping into the skin and flesh from every pore of his body, and blending into the limbs, making him not only not the slightest bit suffocated and uncomfortable, but an indescribable sense of ease, as if he was originally an aquatic species.

"The skin absorbs oxygen in the water more efficiently than normal breathing!"

Shen Lang secretly said in his heart, and after feeling it quietly for a while, he rowed his arms and kicked his legs and swam in the water.

The resistance of the sea water was mostly removed by the "invisible mucous membrane" on the surface of his skin.

He can even clearly feel every whirlpool undercurrent around him with his skin, and then almost instinctively, either to avoid the interference of the whirlpool undercurrent, or to use their power to save physical exertion and increase swimming speed.

Before crossing, the water nature of the sinking waves can only be regarded as barely knowing the water, and if you flutter in the water for a hundred meters, you will be exhausted.

But now, after a brief period of jerky clumsiness, he swam faster and faster, and his swimming style became more and more skilful and graceful, and gradually he looked like a real big fish, moving nimbly and freely to and fro at the bottom of the sea.

If a dolphin were to try his swimming skills at this time, he might not lose.

After a while of diving, the waves gradually moved away from the sail-lined pirate harbor and around the side of the pirate island, a reef-strewn shoal.

"It's time to test the abilities of the little fish!"

Shen Lang's mind moved, calling out the small fish.

The little fish fell into the sea with a pop, without the slightest discomfort, gently swaying its red carp tail in the seawater, and kept circling around the sinking waves.

"Shen Lang, I'm in the second realm!"

Xiaoyu speaks in his mouth, and his crisp and immature children's voice is full of cheerful breath.

"Congratulations!"

Shen Lang congratulated with a smile, and exclaimed:

"Little fish, you've become more pretty."

"Really?"

Xiaoyu's voice revealed a hint of shyness, but of course more joy.

Although it has a somewhat arrogant temperament, and claims to be a direct minister who will never flatter the master, but Shen Lang praised it for becoming more and more beautiful, which still made it happy, and kept jumping out of the water, jumping over the top of Shen Lang's head again and again, showing him its more slender and gorgeous figure:

"Shen Lang Shen Lang, look at my tail, does it look a bit like a mermaid? I feel like I'm about to have a waistline......"

Waistline?

Shen Lang is ridiculous, how can a carp have a waistline?

This is an illusion, little fish!

Turning into a dragon is your future, and becoming a mermaid with a waist line is an evil way.

But seeing Xiaoyu so happy, Shen Lang was not embarrassed to hit it, and when it showed it happily for a while, he asked:

"Xiaoyu, how is your strength now?"

"It's amazing!"

The little fish said triumphantly, and suddenly swam to the edge of a reef and shouted:

"The dragon wags its tail!"

The little fishtail flicked the ground, and Peng Di hit the reef, and the reef was splashed with stone powder, and a palm-sized spider web crack bloomed.

Shen Lang was stunned, and then he was overjoyed:

"Awesome, little fish! If you flick your tail with this move, you are afraid that the power will not be inferior to the blow of the idle seven-rank martial artist! ”

The seaside reef has been beaten by the wind and waves all year round, and has long been hammered to be extremely hard.

Ordinary seven-grade products of average level, such as Zhao Mengshan, slapped a palm on the reef, and the damage caused is estimated to be similar to that of a small fish.

"My trick is not called tail flicking, it's called 'dragon tail swing'!"

"Okay, the dragon wags its tail...... By the way, how powerful are your water arrows? ”

"Hee-hee, you're going to see it!"

The small fish swam quickly to thirty meters away, opened its mouth and spit out, and a splash of water shot out, turning into hundreds of crystal water arrows, each of which was only a few feet long and fast thick.

But it was such a seemingly weak water arrow that landed on the reef thirty meters away, and actually punched the hard reef into a dense small round hole, all of which were inches deep.

The ability to make small round holes in the reef is more powerful than the flintlock rifle, and even stronger than Shen Lang's two custom-made heavy pistols.

This kind of power is enough to kill a five-rank martial artist-

The five-rank martial artist didn't even dare to be tough in the array of guns, and Xiaoyu's move was not only more powerful than the military musket, but also a hundred arrows in unison, covering the shooting, which was equivalent to a salvo of a hundred-person musket phalanx.

Under the sudden attack, it is not a problem to destroy an unprotected and undodged five-rank martial artist.

"The reality is that there is no career balance! Xiaoyu is only in the second realm, and the power of the spell can threaten the five-rank martial artist. If you are promoted to another realm, won't even a fourth-rank martial artist be a threat? ”

Of course, being able to "threaten" does not mean being able to kill.

After all, Xiaoyu's water arrows are still only straight ballistics and cannot track the target.

And martial artists, especially those who have cultivated internal strength and above the sixth grade, all of them react quickly and are spiritual, and it is impossible to be stupid to be a live target.

The "internal force release" of the five-rank martial artist can also offset some of the attacks to a certain extent.

However, Xiaoyu's move "Lianzhu Water Arrow" can at least play a "first sight kill" effect.

Caught off guard, there is a chance to drop a five-grade in one move.

"Speaking of which, although the little goblins in the fine pen system are also nine realms, they don't seem to be equivalent to the nine grades and nine order systems of this world? The nine realms of the little demons, every time they are promoted to a realm, their strength will be greatly improved......

"So shouldn't the fourth or fifth realm be able to benchmark this world's Eastern Earth First Rank and Western Ninth Order? After that, the realm is directly against the Eastern Land Immortals and Western gods? ”

While he was pondering, the little fish swam up to him again, jumped over his head with joy, and leaped over:

"Sinking waves, how about my beaded water arrows? Pretty powerful, right? ”

Shen Lang gave a thumbs up and praised from the bottom of his heart:

"It's amazing. By the way, Xiaoyu, how many times can you fire a series of water arrows in one go? ”

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, and said weakly:

"Uh...... After launching once, it takes a while to accumulate spiritual power again......"

Shen Lang feels a little bad:

"How long do you have to save up?"

The little fish branch said:

"Hmm, well, that...... An hour ......"

“……”

Cooldown time up to an hour?

Shen Lang was slightly disappointed.

But think about it, after all, this is a "big move" that can threaten the five-rank martial artist, and it is normal to have a longer cooldown time.

Besides, Shen Lang still has some ideas about this trick:

"Little fish, can you only shoot one water arrow at a time? Don't shoot a hundred arrows at once, just one arrow at a time. ”

One arrow at a time, each arrow has more power than the flintlock musket, and when shot at that point, before a hundred water arrows are exhausted, isn't it equivalent to an automatic rifle?

Xiaoyu really didn't expect this, and when Shen Lang reminded him, he was slightly stunned:

"Hey, if you use Lianzhu Water Arrow like this, it seems that it is really more efficient than sending it out in one go!"

Shen Lang smiled and nodded:

"If you allocate spiritual power, you won't even have a firepower window, and you can shoot a single water arrow at any time!"

The First Clan

"I see!"

The little fish swam around the sinking waves:

"If the power of a single burst is insufficient, you can still shoot three shots and five bursts...... In short, if it is not necessary, you don't have to shoot a salvo of 100 arrows in one go, so that the fish's water arrows can play a greater role! ”
