Chapter 6 Flying Fish in the East China Sea
The river is to the sun, and the moonlight is written clearly.
The mirror beads slip through, and the strings are full of arrow wavelengths.
The hook shakes the rabbit shadow, and the floating gui moves Danfang.
Extend the photograph of lovesickness, thousands of miles together.
At this time, the Tang Dynasty poet Lu Zhaolin wrote "Looking at the Moon in the River", which was written about the poet looking at the moon on a boat in the river, feeling homesick and returning to his heart like an arrow.
At this moment, the boat was sailing in the Yangtze River, and there was a hooked moon in the sky, and the bright moonlight sprinkled all over the river, and through the window of the simple canopy made of straw mats, it was also sprinkled on the body of the empty master.
However, Master Kong's talent is not in the mood to enjoy this moonlight river scenery at the moment, and he is also like an arrow at the moment.
The boat that Ye Feng found for him was a little dilapidated, and it was a very inconspicuous boat. The boatman looked like an honest man, Ye Feng rewarded him with a little more silver, his face bloomed with joy, and he worked very hard when he drove the boat.
There was a pain in the wound in his chest, reminding Sora of the man in the bronze mask he had met on his way to Beijing. What a terrible martial art, he hurt himself with just a bamboo branch, is he really a fisherman in the East China Sea?
Thinking of this person, he unconsciously touched the brocade box hidden in his arms, no matter what, this brocade box must be safely handed over to Senior Brother Gai, for Senior Brother, for Shaolin, for the world, the things in this brocade box are too important.
Therefore, he ordered the boatmen to hurry overnight, so that they would enter the water realm of Hanyang tomorrow morning, and from there they would land the road back to Shaolin.
But now he regretted his decision.
In the middle of the night, the other boats had already docked to rest, and the river was empty, only their small boat was still struggling to brave the wind and waves, upstream, which made the originally inconspicuous ship particularly conspicuous.
There was a faint bad premonition in the hollow, which made him unintentional and restless.
He glanced inside the canopy, and in the corner lay an old man, covered with a quilt in early summer, so tightly covered that only his gray hair was exposed.
The boat family said that this was his old father, who was sick, and happened to be sent to a relative's house in Hanyang to recuperate. The old man had not risen since he got on the boat, but only occasionally turned over, and seemed to be very ill.
An old man who is in the middle of his life, who is seriously ill, has to travel like this, and the boatman did not come in to warm his sick father during the journey, or feed him a sip of water, and he didn't care about it the whole time, it seems that the relationship between the father and son will not be much better.
Just as he was thinking of this, the hull of the ship suddenly jolted.
Originally, the boat was going upstream, facing the waves, and it was normal for some bumps, but the empty face suddenly changed!
Because he heard a faint muffled grunt from the boatman when he was jolting just now, and then he felt as if the hull of the boat had become lighter.
He got up, jumped out of the canopy with an arrow step, stood on the deck and looked around, where was the figure of the boatman?
If you look closely, there are a few large blisters on the river next to the side of the boat, and there seems to be red blood in the moonlight.
The hollow sank, and he was engrossed in his defense, but there was no movement except for the rushing river.
At this time, the boat was uncontrolled, and was swept around by the current in the middle of the river, and it was about to be washed downstream along the river.
He rushed over and grabbed the rudder, but he didn't know how to steer the boat, and fiddled with the rudder a few times but nothing responded, and the boat was still spinning with the current.
If the ship is swept downstream along the rapids, there are many reefs in the river, and once the unmanned boat hits it, it will definitely be the end of the ship's destruction and death.
He raised his eyes and looked at the banks of the river on both sides, they were several feet away, and it was difficult for him to jump ashore with his light skills. But now, I have to give it a try
, at least jump closer to the riverbank before making plans.
For a moment, he remembered the seriously ill old man in the canopy, and if he had jumped away, wouldn't the old man have died?
He secretly thought of Amitabha Buddha in his heart, turned his head and got into the canopy again, wanting to take the old man with him.
As soon as he entered, he was stunned, because when he looked up, he saw a big fish standing in the canopy!
Could it be that the big fish in this river have become fine?
If you look closely, no, this is clearly a person with his whole body covered in a black one-piece suit made of fish skin!
He had heard of this kind of clothing, and some people in the coastal area made this kind of clothing, called water support, made of the skin of sea Jiao and giant sharks, and the fishermen who wore it swam faster and dive longer.
However, he had only heard of it, and had never seen it with his own eyes, and now the person in front of him looked like he was wearing this kind of water.
The man dressed in water was wrapped in fish skin, revealing only a pale face, and when he saw the empty drill enter, he smiled at him, revealing a row of white teeth.
He saw that he was standing in front of the old father of the boat, holding a dagger in his hand, and he must have intended to harm the old man.
He let out a loud shout, and an arrow stepped up, and he punched him in the chest.
His punch looks unpretentious, but it is actually the "Arhat Fuhu Fist" in the Shaolin 72 stunts. The air has been immersed in this set of extremely strong and fierce punches for decades, and the power is naturally extraordinary.
The man dressed in water leaning at first looked at his punch, but he didn't pay attention to it, and only when the fist was close did he take a step back, thinking that he would definitely miss it.
Who knew that the empty arm suddenly snapped, and it actually grew half an inch, which was worthy of hitting the man's chest.
The man turned to one side, and his complexion changed greatly.
Empty's face also changed, and when this punch went up, he only felt as if this man's body was as slippery as a fish and he couldn't spare his hands, and he couldn't exert his strength at all, and he was sideways, and all the power of this punch was unloaded.
Rao was like this, and the man also snorted, it seemed that he was injured by the strength of the empty punch.
His face changed, his eyes shone fiercely, and with a wave of the dagger in his hand, he pounced on him and fought with the air.
After a few rounds, he was secretly surprised in his heart, this man is not only strong in martial arts, but also his body and moves are very familiar, not at all like the martial arts road here in the Central Plains, which reminds Kong of the person with a bronze mask who once injured himself, Donghai Yu!
The more he fought, the more frightened he became, and gradually fell behind, and was firmly suppressed by the man's dagger.
The man smiled, his hand tightened, and the dagger went straight to the chest of the empty master, and stabbed it squarely in the chest.
Hearing the sound of "dang chang", the sharp dagger suddenly broke into two and fell to the ground.
The man covered his wrist that was numbed by the shock, and looked at Master Kong in surprise: "Body protection divine skill?"
Hard qigong such as the golden bell cover iron cloth shirt is actually not uncommon in the rivers and lakes, but this kind of martial arts is extremely difficult to practice, and the effect of Tongzigong is the best, so there are not many people practicing it now.
Besides, these so-called hard qigong are useless once they meet a real master, with this man's martial arts, those who can block his knife and break the dagger are afraid that only Shaolin's seventy-two stunts are the body protection skills, King Kong is not bad!
This King Kong is not bad in the martial arts is boasted of being amazing, but no one has ever seen it, and now the tall and burly monk in front of him is actually equipped with such a stunt, and the man can't help but have cowardice in his heart.
As soon as he showed his fear, he immediately retreated.
Anyway, when he got to the water, no matter how great the monk on this boat was, in his eyes, he was just a fish on the chopping board, at his mercy.
When the man thought of this, his body was together, and he went to the boat
Jumping out of the tent, he saw that he was about to jump into the water.
In a hurry, if he was allowed to enter the water, with his martial arts and water nature, he would be even less of an opponent. But at this time, it was still too late to intercept it. I could only watch him escape into the water.
Just when he was anxious, he suddenly felt a hot feeling flashing from beside him, a sword light flashed away, and the man who was about to jump into the water let out a scream of fear, plopped, and fell into the water.
He clearly saw that when he fell into the water, his black figure suddenly split apart and broke into several pieces, and a rain of blood was sprinkled on the water.
What a fast sword!
What a powerful sword qi!
Sora turned his head in surprise, and saw that the old man, who was still tightly wrapped in a quilt just now, was standing in front of him at this moment, holding a sword wrapped in a piece of cloth in his hand, and looking at him with a smile.
With such skills, of course he couldn't be a seriously ill father of the ship's family, and Sora asked in surprise: "Mr. is good at swordsmanship, dare to ask Mr. Daming?"
The old man smiled: "Taishan, Jiang Mubai!"
Sun Occult Sword Jiang Mubai?
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been hard to believe that there was such a domineering and powerful sword qi in the world, not only could it be the last to come first, but it could also use the void to transform the real, and cut people into several sections with just the sword qi.
He even felt secretly relieved, because fortunately such a character was not his enemy!
But how could this Jiang Mubai hide in this ship and only make a move at a critical moment?
Jiang Mubai seemed to see the empty doubts, and smiled: "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go back to the shore first and talk about it in detail." ”
This Jiang Mubai not only has great swordsmanship, but also makes Kong Shen admire, they use the planks on the boat to throw themselves into the river, and with the slight buoyancy of the planks, they easily leap back to the shore.
When he arrived at the shore, Jiang Mubai said to the air: "The old man was entrusted by Ye Gongzi to protect your safety in secret from the moment you got on the boat. That's why he gave the boat family some silver taels, pretending to be his sick father, but he didn't expect that this boat family loves money like life, and even his father can recognize it as long as he has money. ”
Thinking of the boatman's death in the end, even if he had money, he would not be blessed, and he felt a little gloomy in his heart.
He opened his mouth and asked, "Since Ye Gongzi is entrusted to him, why does Mr. have to hide his whereabouts?"
Jiang Mubai pointed at Jiang Zhong and said, "The one who attacked the master just now was the apprentice of the East China Sea Fish, called the East China Sea Flying Fish, and he was a top assassin. And, what most people don't know is that there are two of them!"
"The old man once fought with them, in addition to their strong martial arts, they are also extremely cunning, and the old man almost fell into their way. That's why I hid my whereabouts until I confirmed that they were the only one who had come, and I could strike while he was unprepared. ”
He nodded, indeed, if he couldn't succeed in one blow just now and let him escape into the water, I'm afraid it would be difficult to deal with.
Jiang Mubai saw that he understood, and then said: "Now that one of the two flying fish is dead, I believe that they will not dare to act rashly for the time being, so we should hurry up and get back to Shaolin as soon as possible." ”
He nodded yes. He touched the brocade box hidden in his arms, and his heart only settled down now.
With the protection of a peerless master like Jiang Mubai, he is now full of confidence in returning to Shaolin.
The two walked one after the other, and Jiang Mubai looked at the back of Master Kong, secretly amused in his heart.
People say that the monk is honest and easy to deceive, it seems that this is really the case, this idiot is really simple-minded, he doesn't ask anything, and he actually believes that he is entrusted by Ye Feng to protect him.
Of course, he was not entrusted by Ye Feng, because Ye Feng didn't know his whereabouts at all.
So, who is it that entrusted him to protect the Empty Master?
