Chu Qingliu invited the leaders of the various families to take a look together, and the old helmsman of the Haihai Guest Exhibition said: "This is not Jianzhou, I am not familiar with the water situation, I don't know if there is an island there." But it was a fire on the sea, and it could not be any other light. ”

Zhang Shouhuo said: "Old helmsman, there is the small island where the Kongtong faction is stationed, called Horn Island, this island is a north-south direction, the north head is slender, the south head is round and big, like a trumpet, but it doesn't mean that it can make a sound. ”

Zhan Lao Helm said: "One big and one thin has to be called Horn Island?" Then why is it not called Broom Island?" Zhang Shouhuo smiled: "You just have to carry your head, if you want to be more serious, you can also call it Drumstick Island, Chicken Leg Island, Elbow Island, and it doesn't have to be Broom Island." ”

This group of people has fought all their lives, seen life and death, and although they are facing an unprecedented enemy, they do not forget to tell a few jokes. Then he said: "If they catch fire in the middle of the night, it will never be accidental, but someone can only set it on fire. ”

Chu Qingliu saw that there was no suspicion in this matter, and said: "Old helmsman Zhan, gang leader Zhang, this is not infighting, this is the fire set by the leader of the Chaotic Alliance Qu and Mr. Shi with people, and it is the old plan of the Chibi fire attack. ”

Zhan Kuoxiong said: "Qu Guanghan, didn't he die in the fire outside Caizhou City? Could it be that he faked his death?"

Chu Qingliu said: "Yes, it's fake death." My sister and I knew about this more than ten years ago, and the reason why we kept it secret was really to keep it confidential in order to be surprised. "Briefly talked about Wu Hao's arson, how Qu Guanghan cheated to death.

He didn't know much about this, and he couldn't go into detail if he wanted to, and it was not appropriate to say more at this time, so he had to keep it simple. Finally, he said: "Keeping the secret so far, it is really a last resort, and I hope that the old helmsman and the heads of the families and friends will understand, according to me, after this matter, Mr. Qu and Mr. Shi will personally apologize to you." ”

Zhan Kuoxiong laughed and said: "I'll just say, the general leader of the Chaos Alliance, let people burn to death without making a sound, and it's too easy to say." It's nothing to keep secrets, but if you do great things, you have to keep them secret, and if he doesn't do that, I will look down on him and the two. Gang Master Zhang, please quickly order someone to drop the sail and lead the rudder, otherwise it will be too southward, and then you will have to turn back, and it will be too difficult against the wind and water. ”

Zhang Shouhuo said: "This place, I am also here for the first time, and I really don't know much about the water flow under the boat. Turning around, the ships lowered either one or two large sails, and then reversed course diagonally toward Horn Island.

Chu Qingliu said: "According to Mr. Qu's arrangement." It's good to be able to burn and burn a group of people who don't hide it, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to get it. Mr. Qu said that we must scuttle all the burned ships and sink them, so that there is no way to hide Sayi, so that we can fight him to the death on the island. "If you don't hide it, if you are angry, you run away in anger and do evil in secret, and the people in the rivers and lakes will never have peace.

Zhan Kuoxiong said: "Mr. Qu expected it very much, I don't know if there is an arrangement?"

Chu Qingliu said: "Our ship, and my eldest brother's boat, all of them do not carry sulfur and fire, and it is not easy to catch fire. In order to prevent the opponent from stepping over and seizing the ship, we must not stop the ship on the shore, but can only walk far away from the edge of the island and sail far downwind. Friends with good water nature walk from the water, and go ashore while scuttling the boat, and those who are not so good in water take a small boat to the island, but before leaving the boat, the boat must be scuttled. In addition, friends who do not want to fight to the death and want to plan for the future, everyone is free, and they can go straight across the island with the big ship without having to go ashore. After going ashore, you don't have to gather first, each of them hides in the night, and after dawn, Zhang Gang Master will blow the horn, and then gather together and don't hide Sayi. ”

Zhan Kuoxiong closed his eyes and thought about it, and said: "It's detailed enough, I don't need to say more, I didn't expect Qu and Shi to be experts on the water." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "Mr. Shi said that although this incident was set on fire by boat, it was not a matter on the sea, but it only moved the fire from the land to the island. If you don't have many years of practical work, how can you become an expert? ”

Zhan Kuoxiong said: "I am not arrogant, this is even more terrifying." ”

As the fire grows closer, it becomes clear that it must have caught fire, and that it is difficult to extinguish it, and its momentum is no longer negotiable. The heads of each family were scattered into four large boats in small boats, and they were divided into commanders.

Su Yiyue was all dispersed, came to Chu Qingliu's side, and said, "You lied to me." Qu Lingyu didn't go to Hengshan, she was also on the boat that set fire, wasn't she?"

Qu Lingyu said before that he might not be able to go to sea with Qu Guanghan by boat, let alone that he might not be able to see this fight in person, but he didn't say that he would die, and he might be on the ship. At this point, there is no need to hide it anymore, Chu Qingliu said: "It may not be on the boat that set the fire, but the junior sister is indeed with Mr. Qu." He naturally didn't know that Qu Lingyu had taken Aunt Yu and Aunt Shun to hide, and after taking the fossilized dew of his body, he had fallen into a coma.

Su Yiyue said: "Very good, I told her to hide it again." Although I didn't believe that she went to Hengshan, I couldn't imagine what she would set on fire, and this time, I lost again. ”

Chu Qingliukuan explained: "This fact has nothing to do with junior sister, it is all Mr. Qu and Mr. Shi secretly arranging it. "To mediate the dispute between Su Yiyue and Qu Lingyu, you have to start small.

Su Yiyue said: "How can outsiders know this? ”

Chu Qingliu said: "As long as we can defeat Wuzang Sayi, that is, we won, and we don't have to fight for who loses and who wins." ”

Ships of all sizes are in a hurry with their sails, and in a short time, they can see the fire clearly. The smoke and smoke were all blown away by the north wind, and only the red fire was burning. There were no ships outside the fire site that had not caught fire at all, and it seemed that the ships brought by Qu Guanghan and Wei Qiren had been avoided except for lighting them into fire boats and burning them directly.

The four big boats sailed separately to the fire, and when they got closer, they first put down their divers, and then they took small boats to the island from all sides, while the big boats sailed far downwind.

Chu Qingliu said to Su Yiyue: "How is the water nature of the deputy hall master Su?" The two of them were very awkward, calling each other the deputy hall master of Shaoxia for a while, and even you and I were not used for a while. How to call it, only according to the good or bad of their own mood, it is completely incalculable.

Su Yiyue said: "I have never learned to swim, even if I don't have a sword on my body, I will sink when I go into the water." Although the helmsman of the Yixuetang is in Hangzhou, it is not a gang on the water. Chu Qingliu said: "So let's get on the boat." ”

When he came to the boat, Chu Qingliu paddled with oars, and Su Yiyue sat in the bow of the cabin and said, "I didn't think that you would attack with fire, it's really useless." "I can't tell if it's regret or rejoicing.

Seeing that Chu Qingliu ignored it, he said again: "You said that if you didn't hide Sayi, would you have stopped the boat at the leeward of the island? In that case, this fire would burn in vain." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "Maybe." There is no way to guess about this, you can only know if you have seen it. ”

Su Yiyue said: "If this is the case, what should we do?"

Chu Qingliu said: "What else can I do? If you can't make a plan, you have to make another plan. ”

As he spoke, he saw a collision in the center of the fire, and the fireboats scattered in all directions, one after the other to the downwind, as if they were lighting river lanterns. Thinking that the anchor chain on the ship finally burned off, the ship lost its roots, and had to drift with the wind and water.

Su Yiyue said: "Don't you still make a wish?"

Chu Qingliu said: "I hope this big guy can burn to death without hiding Sayi." ”

Su Yiyue said: "If you let others listen to this, they will say that you are cold-hearted and hard-hearted, and you can't remember that you didn't hide Sayi and left you alive." If you want me to say that Qu Guanghan can't be burned to death, he can't be burned if he doesn't hide Sayi. He added: "The boats are all burned and floated away, and the water ghosts will not be needed, and on such a windy day, no water ghosts can catch up with the fire boats." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "It's better to be prepared than to be unprepared." Let's not go ashore anymore, let's go to the leeward of the back of the island. "Turn the bow of the boat and row downwind to the south of the island. If you go ashore, it is much more difficult to cross the island in the dark to the back, and you have to beware of the opponent's sneak attack, which is far less convenient than taking a boat. If there is a fire on the ship, even if there is no way to rescue Sayi, he should be able to avoid going ashore and will never stay on the ship to be burned.

Su Yiyue said: "You say, my father or Qu Guanghan, who has more skills?"

Chu Qingliu couldn't imagine that she could still talk about this at this time, thought about it, and said: | Su Daxia is a person, I have not been able to see it with my own eyes. However, according to the various stories of the ancestors, in terms of martial arts, Su Daxia should be much higher than Mr. Qu. If Su Daxia is still alive, he will not dare to act so nonsense. ”

Su Yiyue said: "Do you really think so?"

Chu Qingliu said: "If one of the three people of Su Daxia, Xianshi, and Qu Dingxiang Hall Master is there, it is bound to not be chaotic to this point, two of the three are here, and he has no choice but to endure without hiding Sayi, and he will not be so public." It is a pity that these three people have passed away in a few years, leaving the rivers and lakes empty and lacking successors. He also said: "Ignoring the Taoist leader, it's good to go to the lover to be too skilled, but I have the heavy responsibility of one sect and one faction, and I have too many worries to act, and I can't be free, so it's difficult to let go of it." Liu Qi Chan is also a game temperament, his martial arts are higher than his ancestors, but he can't stop Wu Zang Sayi. ”

Su Yiyue was silent for a long time and said, "What you said is too false. If two of the three are there, they may be able to fight against Wuzang Sayi, and when there is only one person left, there will be nothing they can do. ”

Chu Qingliu said: "If Su Daxia is still there, join forces with Mrs. Su, even if you can't get rid of Wuzang Sayi, you can still keep people's hearts and minds." Wherever you go, your friends will return to the wind. When we talk about this, are we talking about chivalry to fire?"

Su Yiyue said: "What else can you do if you don't talk about this? Could it be that you rush straight to the fire?" Pointing behind Chu Qingliu, she said, "A ship has gone to sea." ”

Chu Qingliu turned the bow of the boat with two oars, and saw the north head of the island, and two small boats rushed down from the fire. At this time, the big boats were either burned or sailed away, and all the small boats had been destroyed, and the Kongtong faction must have seen this trick and wanted to escape with the small boats hidden on the island.

Su Yiyue sneered: "They are really stupid, even if they want to leave, do they have to go back to the land on this side? Won't they go back to other islands?

Chu Qingliu said: "It's not easy to steal a boat into the sea without hiding Sayi's eyes. Perhaps the back of this island is full of high cliffs, and you can't go down into the sea. ”

Su Yiyue said: "You laugh at me for not being good at anticipation?"

Chu Qingliu said: "I laughed at myself for not being thoughtful. For many days, for fear of alarming, he didn't even go around to the back of the island to see from a distance, otherwise, there would be no need to speculate here. ”

As he spoke, he approached two small boats. There were five people in the two boats, and they couldn't see their clothes and faces in the dark, and they were all struggling to pull the oars and paddle the water. Seeing Chu Qingliu's boat arrive, in a panic, he could no longer move forward together, so he had to drift and whirl with the wind and waves.

Chu Qing turned to the upper hand, and was about to approach, and went over to arrest people to inquire, Su Yiyue said: "My hand-throwing arrows are not easy to build, it is a pity to use them on them, borrow your stones to use." He took the stone in Chu Qingliu's hand, raised his hand one after another, and knocked down four people into the water, leaving only one person to shrink in the center of the cabin and dare not move. Chu Qingliu's boat leaned in, and Su Yiyue swung his sword to open several holes in the two small boats, and then clicked on the man's acupoint and lifted the person to his own boat.

The man was dressed as a Western Regions Huren, with a high nose and deep blue eyes, and his face was distorted under panic, more like a beast. Chu Qingliu asked a few words, and this person spoke in his mouth, gesturing with his hands, but he couldn't understand a word. Su Yiyue asked a few words, and when she was like this, she couldn't help but be furious, and raised her sword to kill and behead. This man knew that he could not resist it, but he could not defend himself, and in his anger he had the courage to revive, and he jumped into the sea, and after a few presences, he sank and disappeared.

Su Yiyue sighed and said: "I caught a live mouth, but I didn't expect to be a dumb person, a mute person, but my temperament is not small." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "Even if there is no living mouth, when the dawn comes, the situation on the shore will be clear." "I don't have the heart to say that the man is not dumb.

The boat was rowed to the shore, and the two took turns to take care of the boat, monitoring the sea, and resting with their eyes closed. Fortunately, no more ships have broken into the sea from shore after that.
