Chapter 29: The Water Monster (2)
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a huge beast suddenly appear on the water in front of the bow. The beast was three people tall, with a huge head, a pointed horn on the top of its head, fangs and fangs, and a cold red glow in its eyes, which was formidable.
When the beast and horse on the ship saw the strange beast, they kept neighing and fidgeting.
Immediately afterwards, a splash of water came to her face, Lei Lingxue couldn't dodge, and suddenly soaked the clothes on her body, only to feel a piercing coldness penetrate her body.
I saw that the strange beast shook its head, opened its mouth, and roared angrily, and the sound shook the four fields.
The boatman was so frightened that he took half a step back, and without paying attention, he fell into the boat, and the spear in his hand flew out of his hand, and landed on the bow of the boat with a "dang".
The beast was furious, opened its bloody jaws, and bit at him violently.
Lei Lingxue saw that the situation was not good, and shouted: "Be careful"
She carried the thunder and lightning stored in her body, stretched out her index finger and middle finger in her right hand to point at the strange beast, and a dazzling blue electric light shot out from the tip of her right index finger and middle finger, cutting through the darkness of the night sky, and with a snap, hitting the head of the strange beast.
As if stunned by the lightning, the beast's head staggered and fell, and with a "plop" sound, it sank into the water with a huge splash.
In a moment, the river calmed down again, and the boat returned to its steadyness.
Lei Lingxue reluctantly stood up, came to the boatman's side, and asked, "Boatman, are you okay?"
The boatman turned pale with fright, his lips trembled, and he gasped: "No...... It's okay...... Let the girl smile."
Lei Lingxue hurriedly helped the boatman up.
At this time, the calm river suddenly swelled again, and the boat swayed from side to side with the waves again, and Lei Lingxue was unstable on her footing, and immediately fell on the boat.
I saw a huge whirlpool appear on the river in front of the bow, and the whirlpool became more and more urgent. The next moment, the beast burst out of the whirlpool, stood upright, looked down at the things on the boat, and when its gaze swept to the boatman, it opened its mouth, roared, and bit at the boatman again.
When the boatman saw it biting, he quickly turned over, dodged its huge mouth, and rolled to the side.
The beast shook its head and bit down on the boatman's neck.
The boatman turned and ducked again, and dodged its great mouth again.
At this time, the boatman touched the spear beside him with his left hand, picked up the spear and stabbed the throat of the strange beast, and he stabbed it more than a dozen times, but he did not stab the strange beast in the slightest, and he was in a stalemate with the strange beast.
Seeing this situation, Lei Lingxue Huo Ran got up, carried the thunder and lightning stored in the body of the Gathering Lei Dan, stretched out the index finger and middle finger of the left and right hands at the same time, and performed the thunder technique, continuously pointing towards the strange beast.
Streams of pale blue lightning shot out from the tips of her index and middle fingers, striking the beast's head.
The air was filled with electric light and crackling.
A flash of lightning struck the beast's left eye.
The beast couldn't tell its way, and its head began to shake.
The boatman took advantage of this opportunity and stabbed the beast's throat with a spear in his hand like lightning.
The object roared upward, and a hole appeared in its throat, splattering blood.
The boatman gritted his teeth and drew his spear, the blood of the beast splattered all over him.
The beast roared a few times, shook its head a few times, and then fell, and with a pop, sank into the water, and disappeared without a trace.
After that, the river calmed down again, and the boat returned to its steady.
The boatman leaned against the bow of the boat, exhausted and panting, and said, "This beast is dead at all."
He turned around and kowtowed to Lei Lingxue twice, and said, "Thank you girl for saving me, thank you girl for saving me."
Lei Lingxue was shocked, and when she saw him making this big gift, she hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and said, "Boatman, what are you doing here?"
The boatman sighed, choked up, and said, "The girl doesn't know, this beast ate my wife ten years ago, and I have been looking for it all these ten years. Today I finally avenged my wife, woo woo woo" said, old tears.
Seeing him crying, Lei Lingxue took out a handkerchief from her arms and handed it to him.
The boatman reached out and took the handkerchief and said, "Thank you, girl, for making her smile."
Lei Lingxue shook her head and smiled slightly.
The boatman wiped the blood and tears from his face with a handkerchief.
After a while, the boatman told the story of himself and his wife, and Lei Lingxue sat next to him, listening attentively.
It turned out that the boatman was a fisherman in the Danshui River area, and Ting'er in the song was his wife, he and Ting'er were childhood sweethearts, growing up in a village, and he was three years older than Ting'er. Ting'er's family is richer than his. At first, Ting'er's parents did not agree to their marriage, but Ting'er was forced to die, and her parents had no choice but to agree, and the two had a daughter named Zhu Danchen after marriage.
One day, he and Ting'er came to the Danshui River to fish, and accidentally ran into this strange beast, Ting'er sacrificed his life to push him aside, but he fell into the mouth of the strange beast, and he was heartbroken when he lost Ting'er, and his hair turned gray overnight.
And his daughter, Zhu Danchen, was very sad when she learned that her mother was killed, she blamed her father for not protecting her mother, and ran away from home that night.
In the past eight years, he has been looking for his daughter near the Danshui River, rowing on the Danshui River every day to inquire about his daughter's whereabouts, describing his daughter's appearance and name to the passengers crossing the river one by one, hoping that they can notify him or tell her to go home after seeing her daughter, but unfortunately, in the past eight years, she has not received any news about her daughter.
But he didn't give up, he believed that sooner or later he would meet that destined person and be able to meet her daughter one day.
When Lei Lingxue heard this, her heart was sour, and her eyes were full of tears, which reminded her of her father, and she thought to herself that maybe this was the great father's love.
Lei Lingxue wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
The boatman sighed and said, ''Well, I don't know where my daughter is now?'
Lei Lingxue said: "Don't worry, she'll be fine."
''Well, I hope so,'' asked the boatman, "girl, this young man is your father-in-law, right?"
Lei Lingxue shook her head.
"That must be your sweetheart, right?" asked the boatman.
Lei Lingxue nodded.
The boatman nodded and smiled indifferently.
Lei Lingxue lowered her head a little shyly and looked at Zhang Yunxian, she didn't know what to say, she only hoped that the boat would dock earlier.
The night was long, and this night, she never fell asleep, and she was always worried about Zhang Yunxian in her heart.
The next day, the morning sun was rising, the sun peeking out from a corner of the mountain, and the long dark night was finally over.
The boat slowly docked, and when the boat stopped, Lei Lingxue and the boatman hugged the sleeping Zhang Yunxian off the boat, and drove the beast and horse off the boat.
The boatman handed the reins of the beast and horse to Lei Lingxue and said, "Girl, take it."
Lei Lingxue took the reins, took out two jade lang from her arms and handed them to him, saying, "Boatman, thank you for your hard work."
The boatman took Yulang and said with a smile, "Thank you, girl"
Lei Lingxue shook her head and said, "You're welcome."
Lei Lingxue turned over and got on the horse, and the boatman put the sleeping Zhang Yunxian on the horse, and Lei Lingxue tied Zhang Yunxian's body and his body together with a rope.
"Girl, if you have time on the road, ask her to help you find out the whereabouts of the little girl," said the boatman.
Lei Lingxue nodded and said, "Well, I will, don't worry."
"The little girl's name is Zhu Danchen, and she has a black mole on her chin"
"Well, I remember, I'll help you inquire"
"Trouble girl"
"You're welcome"
"Thank you, girl"
"Well, I'm leaving"
"Girl Walks Slowly"
"Hmm"
Lei Lingxue drove the beast and horse and galloped towards the Heming Mountain in front.
Seeing her go away, the boatman turned and got into the boat, swung his oars, and slowly walked towards the center of the river.
