"Hurricane! There's a hurricane ahead—"

"Whirlpools—God, what's going on?"

"Grass! What are you doing there stupidly—quick! Get off the sails, turn the rudder! Hurry up, hurry up......"

As mentioned earlier, because of the chaotic situation in the north, the passing ships on the Lenau River have shrunk a lot compared to before, but it is also the main economic artery of Bran, and there will always be some imperial transport ships and merchant ships that are not afraid of death, etc., still shuttling back and forth.

Now it was on this boundless river, with the sound of frightened roars, a large merchant ship more than ten miles away from the mouth of the river hurriedly dismounted its sails and turned its rudder, slowing down the ship. The sailors on deck were busy and busy.

The reason for such a sudden change is not because of the situation in the north, nor because of the water bandits, but because the climate on the river has suddenly become extremely frightening......

"What's the joke!" In the cockpit on the top floor of the merchant ship, the burly old captain with a beard looked through the crystal glass covered with raindrops outside the cabin, and looked at the water not far in front of the ship, the angry waves were raging, the water splashed everywhere, and it seemed that there was a momentum of turning the river and the sea. Stretching his gaze again, looking at the fuzzy river center in the distance, the situation is even more terrifying, the sky can hardly see the color, only a large area of black clouds like ink gathered, it seems very depressing...... Subconsciously rubbed his eyes, and looked at the equally stunned deputy next to him in disbelief, "Today's wind and waves...... Uh, is it that big?"

"I didn't ...... Probably not. I watched the night sign last night and only saw that it could rain today. "Crew members who have been begging for a living on the water all year round are naturally certain in the estimation and judgment of climate change. But looking at the terrifying posture in front of him, the tone of this deputy hand was obviously a little uncertain.

Shake your head. "And. There is an anomaly in this water...... You saw it when you came, Captain. Although there were wind and waves, it was just a small fight and did not affect the speed of the boat. ”

"Then what is this?" pointed to the terrible waters in front of the boat, and the old captain looked absurd, "Is there a water monster making trouble under the river?"

When boaters talk about water monsters, they are somewhat taboo. But beyond that, it's hard to understand the anomaly in front of you. The waters in front are all good, but when you come here, you are turning over the river and the sea. No one believed him when he said it was okay.

"Water monster?uh......" As if thinking of something, the body of this hand shook, and his expression was obviously a little afraid and hesitant, and he hesitated to speak, "Recently, everyone has been spreading that there is indeed water on this route...... It's a bit quirky, and the location is right at the mouth of the river......"

The old captain was stunned when he heard this, and instantly understood the meaning of the words, his eyes widened, and he opened his mouth: "You mean...... That rumor?"

They are all people who beg for a living on the river. Naturally, there was no obstacle to the flow of information between the various ships. About the strange boat that has been parked at the mouth of the river for some time now. and the various versions of the rumors of the eccentric young man on the ship, and the two of them have naturally heard about it now.

In an instant, the cabin fell silent.

After a moment of silence, the old captain took a deep breath and waved his hand decisively: "Damn, this business will not run away." Tell everyone not to panic, turn the bow of the ship and go back now. ”

Regardless of whether this decision was wise or not, it is clear that it was made a little late.

Without waiting for the deputy to nod in response, his eyes suddenly froze, and the accident suddenly happened, boom...... More than ten zhang in front of the bow of the ship, the turbulent river suddenly exploded, and the splash was mixed with a black shadow that jumped out wildly, and instantly rose into the sky.

Immediately, before everyone on the boat could react, another black shadow burst out from under the river, and at a faster speed than the former, it quickly rose into the air to catch up.

In the cockpit on the top floor, the old captain and the deputy subconsciously opened their mouths and raised their heads, their hearts fluttered first, and then they found that the two black shadows that popped out of the front and back were not water monsters, but human figures, and their hearts were relieved. But then the beating heart instantly rushed into his throat - he saw the black shadow that came from behind leap high, waved his arm, and the pitch-black dagger in his hand drew a cold arc, and stabbed down suddenly......

At this moment, in the eyes of the old captain, time seemed to freeze for a moment.

The bleak sky is full of shadows. A figure bent its mouth and looked down, and a figure looked up. You don't need to look at the expressions of the two, and you don't need to guess the relationship between the two, just looking at this freeze-frame action has already explained a lot. In the narrow distance between the two, the tip of the pitch-black dagger shone with a little cruel light, dazzling, like the edge of the Death Scythe, filled with the breath of death.

Immediately, the picture was working normally, and the pitch-black dagger was quickly chiseled down with a phantom, persistent and precise, and it did not enter the middle of the eyebrows of the figure that jumped out first......

Poof!"Ahh

The terrible howl in the air is real, and as for the crisp sound of the knife entering the flesh, it is subconsciously imagined by the old captain and the two in their minds. The truth should not be far away, the dagger did not enter, and a large handful of blood flowers bloomed wantonly in the air, flying everywhere.

Immediately, the two figures who had won the battle and the life and death had been decided fell from the air together, the distance was getting closer and closer, and the direction was this side?!

"Dodge ......" Before the old captain subconsciously opened his mouth to shout out a warning warning, with a bang, the two figures fell straight on the deck, and the hull of the ship trembled. In my ears, one after another screams of exclamation came faintly from outside the cabin.

Stabilizing his staggering figure, the old captain and the two grabbed the crystal glass together, bowed their heads, and a scarred figure on the deck lay on his back quietly, looking at his face should be an old man. His eyes were fierce, as if he was staring at something, and he seemed to be wailing in pain. At the center of the eyebrows, the pitch-black dagger is submerged!

On the old man's body, there was a half-kneeling figure, also scarred, and his face could not be seen clearly under the cloak. But it was evident that he was not dead, but although the old man was cushioned underneath, he seemed to be shaken a lot, and he shook his head gently, and the tips of his hair did not know whether it was river water or blood, or both, and red droplets of water sprinkled on the deck around him. All around, the sailors who stood dumbly looked at ......

In a moment, the half-kneeling figure eased up, touched the old man's eyes with one hand, held the handle of the knife with the other, and slowly pulled the pitch-black dagger from the center of the old man's eyebrows. Get up, look up, narrow eyes slightly narrowed, blood-stained young face faintly overlap with a certain impression......

Kicking and pedaling, the deputy in the cabin suddenly fell back three steps in a row, his face was pale, and the old captain who was also frightened and inexplicable looked at each other, and exclaimed in a trembling voice: "Water water water...... Water Monster!"

The rumored strange boat and the strange young man, the old captain and the two have not seen it with their own eyes, but from the conclusive description of the bystanders, they can be regarded as having a general impression. Now that I see this ruthless young face with my own eyes, I instantly match the impression in my mind. How can this not terrify them?

"Water monsters—"

The sailors on the deck also reacted at this time, looking at the figure of the water monster that was only in the legend before, but now it is close at hand, and they were instantly frightened. The bold screamed and turned his head and ran, and the timid collapsed to the ground on the spot, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while.

However, the young man who was in the center of the chaos, that is, Tang En, did not have the consciousness of being a water monster at all, his face was dazed, and he turned his head to look around: "Water monster...... What water monster?"

Before he could figure it out, he seemed to suddenly notice something, his body shook slightly, and he slowly turned his head.

Crash...... Crash......

Dozens of feet away, the water splashed again. A total of five figures in front and behind jumped out of the river and hovered in the air. It was the only remaining Haita and the others, that is, the luxury lineup that was half wiped out.

The two sides looked at each other silently, similar to Donne's condition, and none of the Haita and others who came up later were not injured, the difference was only mild or severe.

This is also the result of the hunter and the prey roles being reversed, and the two sides chase and fight again underwater.

Facts have proved that Tang En not only has extraordinary experience on the road, but also has unique attainments in pursuit. Even though Haita and the others listened to Wen Silin's advice and shamelessly sacrificed a strange defensive formation, it was still not enough to save their lives under Tang En's sword...... In fact, the latter is Don's job!

so

Encirclement and suppression, heavy losses, complete defeat!

Retreat, you can't get off with your whole body, and you're still defeated!

...... Looking at the old worship corpse that was silent at Tang En's feet, and then at Tang En's face with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, the corners of Haita's eyes twitched, and they felt numb, desperate, and at a loss in their hearts.

One more step late, another death......

............ (To be continued......)
