0181 Flying on the water
Crossing the Isabel River is not impossible. On the earth, there are many people crossing the English Channel, and the distance they swim is about forty or fifty kilometers, or even farther, which shows that the limits of human beings are still very amazing. If he really wants to cross the Isabel River, Wednesday is not afraid, his current physical fitness is several times higher than that of normal earthlings.
But in that case, the speed will definitely not be raised, and the Isabel River is more dangerous, one is that the current is relatively turbulent, even in the widest part of the water, under the surface of the water is also a step by step, and at the same time there are some more ferocious monsters in the water, from time to time they will emerge to threaten the boats and humans on the water.
So the best option is to find a boat, which is not only labor-saving but also fast. Safety is also better guaranteed in case of danger, and if that doesn't work, it's not too late to consider crossing the Isabel River. Besides, although Li Sisi can swim, neither speed nor endurance can keep up with his rhythm, and it is too dangerous to go on like this.
The two men walked some distance along the riverbank, but they couldn't find a boat, but they were almost spotted by the soldiers stationed there.
It seems that if you want to cross the river, you still have to make an idea from the port. But now there must be vigilance in the direction of the port, and it is not so easy to get through the customs in the dark, what should I do?
Standing on the riverside and looking at the port, when he saw a big boat that had just left the port, Wednesday had an idea, turned his head to Li Sisi and said, "Prepare to get on the boat," said and bent down to pick up Li Sisi horizontally, and then suddenly stepped on the water, followed by the waist to lift his breath, and carried "Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada" to chase after the big boat. It is said that it is difficult to gain a foothold on the water with a person, but Wednesday's current internal strength is strong enough, and the level of light power is high enough. Li Sisi's weight is not large, so he completed the water floating relatively easily on Wednesday. Wednesday took turns slamming his feet on the water, and with the reaction force from under his feet, he swished towards the big boat, leaving only a white spray.
At first, no one noticed the two of them on Wednesday, but after Wednesday ran some distance. The people on the shore found this strange sight and exclaimed, and several passengers on the big ship also saw the two of them, and let out one exclamation after another, as if they had seen something incredible.
If it is a mage who walks against the wind, these people will also see the excitement, after all, they can be seen often. But this ability to run quickly on the surface of the water has never been heard of. What kind of ability is this? No one knows. Only Li Sisi exclaimed in Wednesday's arms, "Flying on the water?!"
Wednesday laughed as he ran quickly, "You can do it in the future." Actually, it's not that difficult, if you want, cross the river and learn to swim again, I have a kung fu that specializes in teaching people to practice water, and it is also very useful when fighting underwater, and this kung fu has saved my life several times before. ”
Li Sisi couldn't help but nod in Wednesday's arms, revealing a hint of longing. She is indeed more eager to improve her strength than before, and she is also practicing harder every day.
Wednesday ignored the shouts of the men. Go straight to the big boat. The speed of the big ship that had just picked up speed was not too fast, less than half a minute. Catch up with the big ship on Wednesday. After approaching the side of the boat, Wednesday suddenly exerted force, threw Li Sisi up with both arms, and his feet sank and almost fell into the water, but he quickly adjusted and stepped on the surface of the water again. There was a crack, and the water beneath his feet exploded into a large spray, and his body swooped onto the bow of the boat.
After landing on the bow of the boat, Wednesday stretched out his arm to catch Li Sisi, who had just fallen, and then arched his hand around. "Everyone, let's all disperse. With his words, the crowd of onlookers dispersed, but not because of his words, but because of the officers and soldiers who came.
"Don't move, put down your weapons, and get checked!" rushed out from behind the crowd a group of soldiers, led by a swordsman, a light mage by his side, and a group of almost twenty soldiers. After a team of people dispersed the crowd of onlookers, they surrounded Wednesday and Li Sisi with fierce eyes, "Say, who are you?"
Wednesday smiled, "It's just ordinary people." ”
"Ordinary people?" the leading swordsman snorted, looked Wednesday up and down, and then asked rhetorically, "How did ordinary people try to evade inspection?"
The swordsman apparently hadn't seen the scene of treading water on Wednesday with his own eyes, so he asked. Wednesday looked back at a small boat catching up on the other side of the harbor, and smiled, "You'll know later," he said as he took a sharp step forward, grabbing the swordsman directly by the chest with both hands, and at the same time bent back suddenly, exerting his arms with the force, and threw the swordsman off the boat in reverse before he could react.
With a successful blow, Wednesday showed no mercy, rushed into the middle of this group of soldiers and directly found the light mage, and threw him directly towards the small boat that caught up with him with a flick of his arms.
Seeing that Wednesday made a move, Li Sisi was not to be outdone, and then rushed into the crowd, throwing and falling, and throwing several soldiers into the river.
Wednesday watched Li Sisi's movements, a bit like Tai Chi, but the punch strength is straighter than Tai Chi, the moves are more concise, and the strength is a little more fierce, "What kind of boxing method are you?" asked with interest on Wednesday.
But Li Sisi touched the back of his head, blinked and shook his head, "I don't know, it seems that I used it unconsciously." ”
Wednesday smiled and didn't say anything more, "Let's go, go to the bow of the boat," and then led Li Sisi straight to the cockpit at the bow of the ship.
There were only two people in the cockpit, a middle-aged man and an old man, who looked like a father and son, and the middle-aged man who was driving the boat frowned and asked when he saw Wednesday, "Who are you? Why did you come here?"
Wednesday reached out and took out two hundred gold coins from the inventory in his arms, and then put them on a small table with a bang, "This is my boat fare, I didn't pay it just now, and now I will make up for it." ”
"What do you mean?" the middle-aged man looked at Wednesday suspiciously, while the old man on the side quietly moved to the side of a large sword.
Wednesday shrugged his shoulders, and suddenly raised his hand, and a round iron bead smashed on the big sword with a "whoosh", "Don't move, or I'll hit your eyeballs next time." ”
Looking at the little sparks splashed on the big sword, the middle-aged man and the old man finally realized what was happening, and asked hesitantly, "What do you want to do?"
"Isn't that right?" Wednesday said with a gentle smile: "We just want to cross the river, and then you will drive the boat directly, no one will stop, until you reach the other side, if you play any tricks, this boat will all give you a funeral," said to Li Sisi: "Look at them, if anyone dares to move, kill them directly, if there is anything wrong, shout at me." ”
Li Sisi nodded, pulled out his long sword, and stood on the side of the cockpit door.
Wednesday secretly praised that this position is good, not only to avoid threats from behind the door, but also to monitor the two people in the cockpit, and at the same time, if there is something wrong, you can quickly escape from the side. It seems that Li Sisi just has lost his memory, and some instinctive things are still there, not only the martial arts he has practiced for many years, but also the most basic vigilance as a martial artist.
Seeing this, Wednesday relieved himself to leave the cockpit to Li Sisi, and then returned to the stern. When I got to the stern, I saw that a small boat had been chased from the harbor, and there were two swordsmen and two mages on board, carrying ladders and preparing to board the ship. At the same time, several small boats chased out of the harbor, apparently aware of Wednesday's anomaly, and of course it may have been ordered to intercept people suspected of Wednesday.
At this time, there were only portraits and suspected features on the wanted warrant. Wednesday can change his appearance, so the portrait is not much of a threat to him, and ordinary people don't notice this, but his biggest characteristic can't be hidden no matter what, that is, his martial arts, his way of fighting.
Wednesday's way of fighting was so peculiar that almost anyone who had seen him fight knew his identity. So Wednesday suspects that those who caught up already knew his identity.
Thinking of this, Wednesday suddenly got up in the frightened and frightened eyes of the onlookers, rushed out of the side of the boat like an eagle, and then plunged into the river with a pop. Once underwater, Wednesday swung his legs and dived quickly towards the boat.
When they saw Wednesday jumping into the water, the people on both the big boat and the small boat were stunned, what was going on? Could it be that they were trying to escape? But where could they escape in the vast river? Everyone was really in the same mind, and they all stared nervously at the water, wanting to see where they could escape to Wednesday. And the two swordsmen and two mages on the boat were even more excited, because they recognized it when they performed light skills on Wednesday, it was the A-level wanted criminal of the Holy See, and whoever could catch him could directly be promoted to the Silver Knight.
So the eyes of the four men on the boat were staring straight at the place where Wednesday had entered the water, waiting for him to come up. In the water, no matter how fast he swims, he is not as fast as the speed of a small boat, as long as he dares to show his head, he can catch him, the two swordsmen and the two mages thought excitedly.
But a minute passed, two minutes passed, three minutes passed, and the surface of the water was still quiet, except for the occasional fish jumping out of the water. Could it be that it was eaten by a water monster?" the two swordsmen guessed with a look at each other. They have been on the banks of the river for a long time, and naturally they know that this Isabel River is definitely not as gentle as the name sounds, and it is very dangerous to enter the water alone, and the rushing water under the water alone is scary enough, not to mention the more terrifying water monsters.
Not only the four people on the small boat were full of suspicions, but even the crowd on the big boat were also a little puzzled, and they couldn't understand where the young man who looked very powerful just now had gone. (To be continued......)
