54 Risking your life

Xian Jingyue's words are like a thunderbolt falling on Yan Sidao's head. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He did a lot of calculations, but he didn't count this "first person in the world in ten years" and "Jiangnan Yidao" to compete for the moon first, and he didn't know water.

In this situation, if Xian Jingyue insists on refusing to go into the water to avoid the fire, even if he thinks that he really has the method of seizing the heavens and the earth, and the unpredictable technique of ghosts and gods, he has nothing to do in the face of this sea of fire full of lakes, and can only wait to be burned into charcoal.

At that moment, Yan Sidao's mind was spinning rapidly, and he was about to think about whether to leave Xian Jingyue and escape alone, but he heard Xian Jingyue suddenly take a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "You wait here for a while, I'll come when I go." Yan Sidao couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "There are fires on all sides, where else can you go?"

Xian Jingyue shook his head and didn't answer, and split out again, causing a large splash on the lake in front of him, but he swung an empty knife, and with the momentum of this move, the broken boat board under his feet was suddenly pushed back, and shot backwards like an arrow on the lake, carrying Xian Jingyue out of the lake, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the flames burning behind him.

Yan Sidao suddenly understood Xian Jingyue's intentions, but seeing that he was slashing the lake with several swords, the broken boat board under his feet was driven by the force of recoil, and he slid faster and faster, and he had already broken through the sea of fire with a flick of his fingers, and took Xian Jingyue and crashed straight into a flat boat. The people on the flat boat saw that Xian Jingyue's white clothes were burned to pieces by the flames, and he was carrying sparks, and before he could react in surprise, Xian Jingyue made a fierce force under his feet, and stepped on the broken boat board and sank to the bottom of the lake, but his people had already used their strength to volley up in the air and flew on the leaf flat boat.

From the time when Xian Jingyue slid with his sword in the flames to the time he jumped on the flat boat, everything happened only in three breaths, and by the time the people on the flat boat came back to their senses, it was naturally too late. As soon as Xian Jingyue stepped on the flat boat, he immediately raised his knife and fell, and opened a killing ring, and only used two moves in his hands, and all five people on the flat boat fell into the water.

Seeing that Xian Jingyue suddenly made a move, the other boats took away a boat, and hurriedly blew the horn to send a message, and avoided it one after another. Standing at the end of the boat, Xian Jingyue immediately cranked the oar in one hand and held a knife in the other, and chased after the nearest enemy ship. However, although he was a martial arts practitioner, after all, he was only alone in the boat, and he didn't know the nature of the water, how could he keep up with the veterans of the green forest in the rest of the boats? As soon as the other party saw the moon first rocking the boat, he immediately swung his boat away, and always kept a distance of about 20 zhang from him.

Xian Jingyue chased on the lake like this for half an hour, but he couldn't even get close to an enemy ship, let alone hurt people with a knife. Although he was anxious in his heart, it had become difficult to ride a tiger at the moment, and if he stopped the boat and let the other party have a little gap, he was afraid that he would spread fire oil again, or use other more vicious means to deal with him.

Those Bian Zhou's current actions clearly showed that they were fighting a war of attrition with Xian Jingyue, and they would wait until he was exhausted before he came over to pick up ready-made bargains. Xian Jingyue was at a loss, when he suddenly felt that the bow of the boat sank, and someone escaped by water and reached out to catch the side of the flat boat. At that moment, he was about to draw the knife, and the person who came had already spoken: "Don't worry, it's me." But it was the voice of thought.

It turned out that Yan Sidao saw the fire spreading around, so he dived into the water to dodge, and at the same time put his dry tobacco stick in his mouth, stretched out the water to breathe, and then avoided the end of the fire. When the fire subsided a little, he poked his head out of the water, and saw that Xian Jingyue was struggling to chase the enemy in a boat, although he was extremely brave, but he was never as cunning as these old foxes on the rivers and lakes, and he couldn't even catch up with a boat.

In desperation, Yan Sidao had to dive alone, and quietly swam from the water to the side of the boat that first competed for the moon. As soon as he climbed onto the boat, he immediately said: "Brother Jingyue, don't waste your efforts, you just have to row in the direction of Yueyang City, and see if they chase after you." ”

Xian Jingyue was already physically and mentally exhausted, and he was a fan of the authorities, and at this moment he was suddenly drunk by Yan Sidao, and then he woke up. Now that the enemy is taking the initiative to attack, but he does not dare to face it head-on, and is just playing hide and seek, then why should he pay attention to it? It is better to go straight to the direction of Yueyang City, if the other party dares to catch up, he can shoot and kill the enemy; if the other party does not pursue, until he sets foot on land, even if there are thousands of troops and horses, as long as he has a knife in hand, he will be idle.

Just as the night was getting darker, the lake wind had swept away the clouds in the sky, revealing a faint starry sky. Xian Jingyue immediately looked up at Beidou, recognized the direction of Yueyang City in the east, and just rocked the boat, and Yan Sidao also found a wooden plank to help row the boat. Seeing that they suddenly changed their tactics and wanted to flee back to the shore, the remaining ten leaves of the other party couldn't help but panic, but they didn't dare to chase too close, so they had to reline themselves into a fleet, follow the two of them from a distance, and release a few cold arrows from time to time to sneak attack.

On the flat boat, the first moon was rocking, and the sword was swinging to shoot down the arrows, but after a meal, a black line appeared from the surface of the lake, and the outline of Yueyang City had already appeared in front of him. The ten-leaf boat behind him was also in a hurry, and suddenly a low horn sounded loudly.

At the sound of the horn, all the flat boats had gradually increased their speed, and they quickly chased after them like arrows from the string, and they crashed straight into the Ye Bian boats where Xian Jingyue and Yan Sidao were there. Xian Jingyue raised her eyebrows, and in an instant, she didn't know which boat to slash to. Yan Sidao's heart turned, and then he shouted: "Use your body as a sword, blood splashed in five steps? Brother Jingyue beware, they are going to attack with fire again!"

As soon as his words fell, the ten-leaf boat was halfway through, and sure enough, it burned at the same time, and the enemy on the ship naturally abandoned the ship, and used the boat as a weapon, turning it into a fire boat and rushing over. But seeing these ten flaming boats, like ten fire dragons roaring from different directions, he couldn't think of a better way to race the moon in an instant. At that moment, he had to forcibly suppress his tiredness, and suddenly shouted, his face showed an unprecedented fierceness, and he still used the trick of "splitting Huashan alone", and slashed down to the lake behind him.

With this move, he actually faced the 800-mile Dongting Lake again, releasing a murderous aura that mixed his body, as if he wanted to destroy the entire lake with a single sword. But when he heard a loud noise, a piece of lake water the size of a zhang after the moon boat was struck by his murderous aura, surging wildly, forming an extremely thick monstrous column of water, which immediately overturned several fireboats at the head, and then extinguished in the lake;

Xian Jingyue's shot was not only extremely powerful, but also the timing was just right. Although it was only a single slash, the threat of the ten fireships was solved. Yan Sidao was overjoyed in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to cheer, but he heard a loud noise on the lake behind him, shining a large piece of firelight, reflecting most of the night sky turning red.

It turned out that two or three flat boats collided with each other, and they actually exploded on the surface of the lake, thinking that there was gunpowder hidden in the boats. If it weren't for Xian Jingyue's quick decision and this trick that he struggled to hack, even if he let a flat boat get closer, the gunpowder on the ship would have killed Xian Jingyue and Yan Sidao in an instant. From this point of view, the water kung fu under the gate of Dongting Lake is really a first-class means.

That Xian Jingyue was standing at the stern of the boat at the moment, resisting the huge force that came out of Dongting Lake, but how could he have expected that there was still gunpowder hidden on the flat boat? With the explosion of the two or three flat boats, although they were not too close, the momentum of the explosion was already rushing towards them. Xian Jingyue was in a hurry and couldn't dodge, so he had to turn his back, and was immediately hit in the back by the force of the explosion, knocking him down on the boat.

In this way, the great momentum was blocked by Xian Jingyue's body, and Yan Sidao hurriedly lay down, so he was lucky not to be injured. Seeing a large piece of scorched black on the back of Xian Jingyue, lying motionless on the flat boat, he was anxious and worried, but there was nothing he could do at the moment, so he had to jump to the back of the boat and row the flat boat to the shore.

At this time, the boat on which the two of them were riding was still a few miles away from the land, and those incoming enemies were forced to race for the moon first, and they were originally very far away, but now they had abandoned the boat, and even if they tried their best to swim, they would definitely not be able to catch up with the two of them. Yan Sidao's heart was wide, and he hurriedly shook the boat with all his might.

Seeing that the boat was about to dock to the shore, he saw that in the dark night ahead, a miserable green flame jumped out without warning, and then gradually grew larger, and finally turned into a turquoise wall of fire, towering in the night sky, with no end in sight, blocking the entire shore of the lake.

Yan Sidao was startled when he saw this strange scene, and hurriedly looked behind him, but saw that the scene behind him was even more strange. At some point, the water of Dongting Lake has sunken down, forming a bottomless hole, swirling and sucking the lake water into it.

In the depths of the big cave, Yan Sidao could see clearly, and it was clear that there was a giant beast lurking at the bottom of the lake in ancient times, and it was opening its mouth wide at this time to inhale desperately, as if it was going to swallow the entire Dongting Lake into its stomach. And the Ye Bian boat he was riding in was driven by the current of water circling around the big hole, and it also slowly retreated towards the strange big hole.
