"Well said. ”

Li Yuan agreed to come down.

As long as there are not a large number of Ning Zhen cultivators among those bandits and water bandits, or the powerhouses of the Guiyuan realm, with his ability, it is just a matter of raising his hands to repel them.

Several people continued to talk.

Li Yuan ate the whole braised fish and drank a lot of wine, and the hunger in his stomach eased.

Unconsciously, the sky gradually darkened, the boat was in charge of the lights, Liang Jun had something to do, and the three brothers of the Luo family all went back to their respective rooms.

Li Yuan walked out of the cabin, and it was already dark outside.

The river breeze brings a chill, and in early autumn, the temperature is gradually getting colder.

There was no moon tonight, just stars twinkling above the dome. In the distance of the night sky, some meteor-like traces could occasionally be seen passing by, which was the light brought by the distant immortal cultivators who broke through the sky.

The river is surging endlessly, and the big ship is moving forward steadily.

Li Yuan stopped at the bow of the boat, listening to the sound of flowing water, and his heart was quiet.

"Knife technique, ah......"

Unconsciously, he remembered the two knife techniques taught by the butcher.

"Breaking the neck and letting blood is a fatal blow. You need to use superb reflexes and judgment to find the enemy's weak points in the shortest possible time, and then kill them with one blow. ”

"Skinning and deboning is the ultimate skill. With a poisonous eye, analyze the enemy's spells, treasures, and even the vein structure of the body, and use the blade to cut through the most vulnerable points to make them fall apart. ”

Li Yuan has a little understanding of the concept of these two types of knife techniques.

Although I don't have a deep understanding, I haven't practiced it. But with his combat experience in crisscrossing the galaxy and fighting with tens of millions of aliens, if he wants to practice these two moves, it should not be difficult.

But as he said to the butcher, these two moves are just icing on the cake for him, and even if he practices well, they will only make his sword foundation more solid, but not greatly improve his strength.

"Forget it. I've already rejected the butcher, and if I practice secretly, wouldn't it be a villain's behavior. ”

Li Yuan extinguished the idea of practicing the knife in his heart.

With nothing to do at night, he walked to the cabin, preparing to go back to his room to continue his cultivation and cross the threshold of the small realm.

But at this moment, a slight sound mixed with the sound of rushing water reached his ears.

"Click"

"Click"

A crisp sound, like someone gnawing on something hard, came from far away.

At the same time, a faint smell of blood wafted to the big ship.

Li Yuan frowned.

The water above this river is rushing, how can there be a smell of blood?

He listened intently and saw that the sound was coming from downstream.

As the ship drifted forward, the sound of "click, click" gradually became clear, and even the hired workers on the ship's night watch could hear it.

Zhou Cheng, the young night watchman, said strangely: "I just had dinner, who is eating the pot? ”

Another old man on night duty, Yuan Ping, waved his hand and said: "If you are greedy, you will go and uncover two pieces and have a good mouth, isn't it just a pot, there are some in the stove room." ”

"Forget it, my teeth haven't been very good lately, and if I break my teeth, I'll find someone to cry to. Zhou Cheng shook his head and dispelled his thoughts.

Li Yuan didn't go to talk to the two.

He focused his eyes and looked downstream in the direction of the river, trying to find the source of the sound or the smell of blood in the darkness of the night.

At first, his eyes were almost black, and he could not see anything two or three feet away from the hull of the ship.

But after a while, when the boat had moved forward some distance, he suddenly saw a white thing appear in the center of the spacious river in front of him.

If you look closely, the white thing actually looks a bit like a person who has been stripped naked!

Li Yuan was surprised.

Busy with the original energy to the eyes, look ahead again.

At this sight, he was suddenly surprised!

With the help of the Primal Spirit, his eyesight greatly increased, and he saw a human body floating in the middle of the river about four or five hundred zhang in front of him.

The human body was caught in the claws of a large dark cyan crab, and it was being bitten and eaten bite by bite!

The sound of "click, click, click" is actually made by blue crabs gnawing on humans and biting off bones!

"It's a youkai. ”

Li Yuan immediately made a judgment in his heart.

The cyan crab was nearly a foot in size when it came out of the water, and the giant pincers held in the air were like a huge knife, and the human body was caught in it, like a poor little worm.

With such a large body size, I'm afraid he is already a big demon, comparable to a Guiyuan Realm monk!

"That's not good. ”

The boat was driving on the water, but it was blocked by the blue crab demon in front. If you just hit it straight up like this and annoy the big demon, I'm afraid that all the people in this boat will have to die in the Cangyun River and become a delicious meal for the monsters.

Although Li Yuan thinks that his strength is good, but in the face of a big demon, and it is on the surface of the river that is quite deep, he has no confidence in winning.

At that moment, he hurriedly said to the two hired workers on duty at night: "There is a monster in the heart of the river in front, hurry up and ask someone to turn the rudder to avoid it, otherwise this boat of people will definitely die!"

Zhou Cheng and Yuan Ping glanced at him, frowned and wondered: "Brother, it's only been long after nightfall, why are you talking in your dreams?"

"Don't believe it for yourselves!"

Li Yuan pointed ahead.

The speed of the boat moving on the surface of the river was quite fast, and the distance was four or five hundred zhang just now, but now it has narrowed to less than three hundred zhang.

However, the night was dark, Zhou Chang and Yuan Ping were just ordinary people, and their vision was much worse, and they couldn't see anything three hundred zhang away at all.

The two of them looked at each other, then pouted, "Obviously there is nothing." Brother, if you are sleepy, go back to the cabin and sleep, don't blow the wind here, beware of the cold. ”

Li Yuan was slightly annoyed.

Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, he didn't care about talking nonsense with the two of them, and took out the Zijun Sword and the Cold Steel Battle Sword together, and the Spirit Sword in his left hand and the War Sword in his right hand, mobilizing his whole body to prepare for the battle that might come at any time.

Zhou Cheng and Yuan Ping were startled when they watched him conjure two weapons out of thin air, thinking that he wanted to commit murder.

However, they soon found that Li Yuan was staring ahead, and had no intention of hurting anyone.

"Eh, Lao Yuan, look, there's something in the river ahead!" Suddenly, Zhou Chang saw the huge blue crab in front of him, and the human remains that had been eaten to the point that only a slender leg remained.

Yuan Ping looked at the past, was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed: "It's not good, I've met the king of Hengjiang!

said that he hurriedly ran to find the helmsman who controlled the direction of the boat.

Li Yuan sighed in his heart.

At this time, I want to turn, and it is too late.

In fact, with the speed of the ship's drifting, it was already too late when he shouted "there are youkai".

At present, the big boat is less than 100 feet away from the blue crab, and the blue crab demon also found the fast approaching boat, chewed off the half of the woman's thigh caught by the tongs, and turned around.

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm lucky today, and I actually encountered two waves of food in a row. ”

The sound of gloom sounded from all directions, and a strong sense of crisis arose.

Li Yuan's heart sank.

can speak to prove that this blue crab is indeed a big demon!
