Chapter 292: Masked Woman

The monk who set off the boat made a vertical leap, got into the river, and swam under the boat. I saw four or five minions scuttling boats in the bilge, and the monk swam over, and overturned them all with a Zen staff, and one by one they were exposed to the water. That Liu Huzi deserved the nickname of "underwater ghost", and when he saw the monk poking him with a Zen stick, he dodged it as soon as he turned over. The "underwater ghost" pulled out a long knife, and in turn wanted to cut the monk who started the boat, and the resistance under the water was great, and when his long knife was cut, the monk's Zen staff poked into his chest, and he felt very painful.

The "underwater ghost" was furious, and when he saw the Zen staff coming again, he grabbed the Zen staff and brought it back. The monk took advantage of the situation to swim to him, and punched him in the throat, the "underwater ghost" couldn't help opening his mouth, and swallowed his stomach with a mouthful of water, he couldn't hold his breath anymore, and was about to emerge from the water.

How could the monk who set off the boat allow him to come out of the water to breathe, and he grabbed one of his feet below. When the "underwater ghost" saw that one foot was being pulled, he hurriedly pedaled with the other foot, and kicked it down, but the monk tied both of his feet together with a rope. The "underwater ghost" was horrified, and another mouthful of water was poured into his mouth, and he couldn't get out, so he had to hold his breath, get into the water, and solve the problem of the monk first.

The "underwater ghost" Liu Huzi got into the water, saw the monk who set off the boat, and slashed it with a knife. Knowing that the resistance of the water was great, the big knife slashed in front of the monk who set off the boat, and was taken away by the monk who set off the boat. Pulling again, pulling the "underwater ghost" to the bottom of the river, the monk who started the boat sat cross-legged on the "underwater ghost".

The "underwater ghost" Liu Huzi had no choice, he couldn't open his mouth to say the word "begging for mercy" under the water, and he was busy shaking his hands, indicating that he was begging for mercy, stirring up the sludge at the bottom of the river. Unexpectedly, he was pressed even more tightly by the monk who set off the boat, and he exhausted all his methods, and finally had to "...... the river water" in a big gulp.

When his stomach was full, the monk grabbed the "underwater ghost", swam across the bottom of the boat, and one by one the cranes soared into the sky, rushed into the air, and threw Liu Huzi into the cabin, and threw the "underwater ghost" to death.

This "underwater ghost" has been crisscrossing the bottom of the Yangtze River for several years, and I don't know how many boats have been wrecked, how many people's lives have been harmed, and how many human tragedies have been created.

The monk who set off the boat stood firmly on the boat, not tall, holding a Zen staff, full of righteousness, and had a majestic and majestic spirit.

When the messenger saw this, he knew that he had lost the day, so he jumped out of the boat and rowed into the reeds.

Zheng Wenjun hurriedly walked over and thanked the monk for saving his life, calling him a monk. The monk said humbly: "It's just that I have a lot of strength." He also said, "These Five Blessings not only have to come to embarrass Master Zheng, but also want the life of the old monk, killing and retreating from the enemy, not to help others, but also to save themselves." Hu Qiong also admired the monk who set off the boat very much.

Zheng Wenjun recruited sailors and rowed the big boat to the opposite bank, which was not far from Yongxing County. Heading west along the river, an hour later, two large boats arrived at Yongxing Wharf, and the big boats docked. Zheng Wenjun asked his family to tie up the "underwater ghost" and escort him to the Yongxing County Ya.

Yongxing Zhixian couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that the "underwater ghost" who had been crisscrossing the river for several years was caught, and hurriedly grabbed Zheng Wenjun and didn't let go, leaving him to have dinner after the ya.

Not to mention that Zheng Wenjun ate in the county office. Hu Qiong sat on the bow of the boat with the monk who set off the boat, talking about the interesting stories of the rivers and lakes, only to see that the sunset in the west was gorgeous, even the boundless reeds were reflected in the glow, undulating with the wind, and the snow-white herons flew over the reeds in flocks.

Suddenly, he saw a bald head running from the shore, holding two knives in his hand, jumping down the stairs of more than sixty steps, rushing towards the big boat, and shouting, "Return my brother." ”

The monk said: "This person has some brute strength, Master Hu, you go and meet him." Don't be intimidated by his momentum. ”

Hu Qiong understood that this was the monk Qichuan who was ordering his swordsmanship, so he hurriedly greeted him with his sword and shouted, "Who is your brother?"

The pair of knives baldly said: "The 'underwater ghost' you caught is my brother." ”

Hu Qiong said: "He dug people's boats under the water, how many lives have been killed, and he has been sent to the county government." ”

The fat bald head screamed: "Alas, my good brother, who will accompany me to drink in the future." Pointing with a knife, "It's the two of you who hurt my brother and returned my brother's life." ”

Wielding a double knife, he slashed at Hu Qiong, and the two knives cooperated, this is the move of the "Mantis Knife", which is similar to the "Mandarin Duck Knife". Hu Qiong knew that he was powerful, so he didn't dare to fight him, but just relied on light skills, wandering in front of and behind him, looking for an opportunity to attack. The bald head slashed at him, Hu Qiong flashed sharply, and stabbed at the left rib with a sword, but he didn't know that the opponent's left knife slashed, pressed the long sword, and the right hand knife came immediately, and he slashed at the head. Hu Qiong was shocked, and hurriedly ran behind the other party, dissolving this series of knife techniques.

In this way, the two fought back and forth for a dozen rounds. Hu Qiong didn't take half of the advantage, and just relied on light skills to dodge, but the double knife bald head didn't take any advantage. After more than a dozen rounds of fighting, Hu Qiong has learned a lot about his "windward swing" swordsmanship, the stronger the opponent, the more his "windward swing" swordsmanship can give full play to its advantages, it is really like a long wicker swinging in the wind, not only can avoid the enemy, but also can wait for the opportunity to attack, so that Hu Qiong will no longer learn other swordsmanship in his life.

Seeing that the double knife bald head couldn't get a little cheap, he was irritable, and the two knives came out together, slashing at Hu Qiong left and right. A good Hu Qiong, suddenly used a trick "pulling onions on a dry day", rushed to the sky from the gap between the two knives, and used another move in mid-air to "make a long shadow", a sword volley stabbed down, straight towards the bald head. The double knife bald head couldn't do it, so he had to protect the top with two knives and escape to the side. Hu Qiong took advantage of the situation and fell on the other side.

Although the double knife bald head was powerful, there was nothing he could do with Hu Qiong, so he said to the monk who set off the boat: "This kid is very slippery, do you dare to fight with me?"

The monk said: "The monk doesn't fight, he only saves people." ”

The bald head of the double knife said "bah", and said: "What so much nonsense, you said that you saved people, how did you catch the 'underwater ghost' in the yamen?"

The monk smiled slightly and said, "I arrested him to save more people." ”

This pair of swords bald head is a bald head, not a true monk, how can he fight the real monk in front of him, so he has to yell: "If you want to fight, why do you talk so much nonsense?"

The twin knives slashed at the monk who set off the boat. The monk who set off the boat is still sitting on the board of the boat, his Zen staff is long, and when he sees the double knife bald man dancing and the double knife slashing, he raises the Zen staff and points it towards the other party's knee, one by one. The bald man "thumped" and fell on the board. The bald man immediately knelt on the board of the boat and looked at the monk in amazement, as if he did not understand what had just happened.

At this time, a man jumped into the boat and approached Hu Qiong. Hu Qiong saw two small snakes crawling out of his nostrils, winding and hideous, so frightened that he retreated straight back, his legs were weak, and he fell on the plank.

The filthy man picked up a cloth bag, opened the mouth of the bag, and dumped it on Hu Qiong's head. The monk who set off the boat over there saw it, flew up, walked a few steps, and pointed it with a Zen stick, just on the man's waist. The man sat down at once, and the sack fell on the plank, wriggling and wriggling, and soon many poisonous snakes crawled out of the mouth of the bag, colorful and twisting, and spitting out letters. Hu Qiong was so frightened that her hands and feet were soft, so she had to roll a few times and roll to the side.

The monk shouted, "Why don't you two leave quickly?"

The two men got up and ran off the boat and ran away along the riverbank. The monk rushed over and used a Zen staff to pick out the poisonous snakes on the boat board one by one and drop them into the river.

Only then did Hu Qiong stand up and ask, "Master, how do you know that he has a snake in his bag?"

The monk said: "I have been studying behind closed doors for more than 20 years, and for more than 20 years, I have wandered the rivers and lakes, what strange people and strange people have never seen, and what strange things have not been touched, will his little trick deceive me?"

Hu Qiong said in her heart: "Sailing is really a strange monk!"

I was about to ask him what adventures he had on the rivers and lakes, but he saw that the monk had already walked to the bow of the boat, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and recuperated.

It was already dark, Zheng Wenjun was drunk, and with the support of his family, he returned to the big ship, entered the cabin, and after a while, went to sleep.

The monk who set off the boat was still sitting cross-legged in the bow of the boat, and Hu Qiong saw that he was sitting in the bow all day long, and he didn't want to talk to himself, so he didn't bother him anymore and went back to sleep in the cabin.

The sky is full of stars, the wind and waves of the river, the reeds are rustling, like the whispers of a lover, and the monk who set off the boat is deaf, sitting on the bow of the boat like a stone carving. Suddenly, a masked man on the shore came down the steps, walked straight to the bow of the boat, and said to the monk who set off the boat: "Monk, who told you to be nosy?"

The monk didn't open his eyes, and said, "I don't care, who cares?"

The masked man was a woman, and she said playfully, "You don't need to care. ”

The monk asked, "The underwater ghost, can you fight?"

The masked man said: "You can fight, but you can't fight, it has nothing to do with you." It's our business. ”

"Monk, I can't mess around like you, I can't do death without help. ”

"Who won't save you when you die?

The monk stood up, opened his eyes, played with Laipi, and said, "Zheng Zhixian and Hu Gongzi didn't ask me to leave. ”

The masked woman was furious and cried out, "I told you to go." ”

Flying on the bow of the boat, he stabbed at the monk who set off the boat. Qichuan hurriedly dodged and dodged, and saw the masked woman stabbing one sword after another, and the stabbing was so urgent that she couldn't dodge, so she had to hold a Zen staff to block, so the two fought on the bow of the boat.

After killing more than 20 rounds back and forth, the monk jumped out of the circle and shouted, "I don't care about it in the future, what do you think?"

The masked woman said, "No, you have to leave the ship." ”

The monk said: "I leave the ship, who will take me to Handan, Hebei." ”

"I don't care, you have to leave tonight anyway. With that, he stabbed his sword towards Monk Qi's throat.

The monk hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I'll leave the ship." ”

The monk who set off the boat did not bring any package, lifted the Zen staff, jumped off the boat, walked ashore, walked quickly, and soon disappeared into the night. The masked woman was satisfied, and immediately went ashore.

From then on, the monk who set off the boat was on the south bank, and the masked woman was on the north bank, secretly following Zheng Wenjun's two big boats, coming west together.
