Several officers and soldiers blocked the door, witnessing Xiang Zhicheng cutting meat with their own eyes, listening to the heart-rending cries of the fishermen, they couldn't help but feel the same way, the corners of their eyes twitched, and they grinned and gasped.

"Brother Xiang, what's going on?" Lin Yi had just finished asking, and someone gently patted him on the shoulder. He turned his head and saw that Ren Dingbei was staring at the long knife in his hand, and immediately understood, and shouted to the soldiers around him: "Everyone, be careful, don't be injured by the blade." ”

Exit the crowd, go inside and close the scabbard, and then go back to the hallway.

After a moment of hard work, Xiang Zhicheng finally put down the dagger, dressed the fisherman with herbs, bandaged the wound, raised his head and said, "Report to Senior Brother Ren, the injuries of these two people have deteriorated this morning, and the affected area is rapidly decaying. But the conditions on the island are extremely limited, and I have to take them to Qingbo City for treatment, and I must not delay. ”

"Yes. Ren Dingbei was straightforward, casually pointed to the officers and soldiers, and ordered: "You go to the village to ask someone to prepare the boat, and set off quickly, if there is a delay, ask you!"

"Obey!" the man clenched his fists and took the order, rushed out of the house three times in a row, and went into the village to call people.

"Senior Brother Xiang, you take care of the wounded first, and then prepare to leave. After Ren Dingbei finished speaking, he waved his hand and said to the rest of the spirit officials: "Brothers of Tianshu Peak, follow me to the main hall to discuss the countermeasures. ”

Lin, Yin, and Shao saw that he was so solemn that they didn't dare to slack off, so they all rushed to the hall and sat around the square table. The soldiers came one after another, standing on either side, with their chests held high and their heads raised without squinting.

Ren Dingbei was the chief and said straight to the point: "The fog on the island is coming, time is pressing, we have to find out the truth quickly." Brother Yin, you will take the Taoist boy to stay behind and draw talismans on the altar in case of emergency. Lin Yi, Shao Yanling——"

"Yes!" replied in unison.

"You two will go with me into the mountains to search. ”

"Yes!"

"Then-" Ren Dingbei's voice paused, his eyes glanced at Shao Yanling, saw that her hands were empty, and said unhappily: "Where is your frost sword?"

"I heard the shouting just now, I hurried over, and the sword was still in the house......" Shao Yanling defended timidly.

"Go get it!" Ren Dingbei slapped the table and scolded, his face grim.

"Got it. Shao Yanling hurriedly got up and ran to her bedroom.

When she came back with her sword, the team had already gathered outside the door, and the five soldiers were in a separate column, Lin Yi was standing in front with a black eagle on her shoulder, and Gu Wanxi on her right, and on her right was a female protector in leather armor.

Shao Yanling didn't know how to insert into the queue, and panicked for a moment. When the female protector heard the footsteps, she looked back and shouted, "Master, over here!" Shao Yanling trotted to her side as if she had been pardoned, and nodded her head in thanks.

"There are no rules. Ren Dingbei held back his anger, briefly explained two sentences, and then led everyone into the mountains.

Although Ren Dingbei is casual on weekdays, he is good at drinking and greedy for glasses, but at this moment, he can act vigorously and resolutely, which makes Lin Yi's opinion of him change greatly, and he muttered in his heart: "It is worthy of being born in the military." ”

The words were divided into two ends, and as soon as Xiang Zhicheng put the fishermen and his aunt on the stretcher and packed his luggage, the soldiers who had gone out earlier pulled the two boatmen and rushed into the mansion quickly.

"Let's go. Xiang Zhicheng dressed up and gave the order with a sword.

The four men carried the wounded to the seashore and boarded two boats, and the boatmen immediately crossed to the city of Qingbo.

"It's a bit weird in the sea today. The leading boatman muttered, his eyes looking sideways, his face full of doubt.

"What do you say?" Xiang Zhicheng was puzzled.

"As the saying goes, there is no wind and no waves, look around, my lord. ”

Xiang Zhicheng looked at it as he said, only to see the waves on the shore, the waves on the water surface surging, but there was no breeze in the air.

The boat traveled about 100 feet, the waves gradually subsided, and after a few more miles, the sea was as smooth as a mirror, as if everything that had been seen before was an illusion.

"Qi also. Xiang Zhicheng held his knees and thought sadly, and at this moment, a strange sound suddenly came: "Boom......"

Everyone turned their heads one after another, but they saw a white shadow burst out from the bottom of the sea, and showed its true face in the splash, it was a fish monster with a mouth and no beads, and its body was long enough to grow.

The strange fish opened its mouth, revealing a mouth full of fangs, all sharp as knives, and it was terrifying. Without waiting for them to react, he swung his tail in the air and bit the head of the boat next to him!

"Not good. Xiang Zhicheng was shocked and returned to his soul, his body slammed forward, his left palm pressed the deck, his right hand put on the hilt of the sword behind his back, his eyes were majestic, and his legs were secretly accumulating.

"Boom!" the deck shattered, and Xiang Zhicheng leaped up, longitudinally on another canopy ship. In mid-air, Kun Wu came out of the sheath, and the aura was infused, turning into a fire snake, stabbing directly into the belly of the fish monster.

In an instant, the firelight was staggered, and the strange fish was hit by a sword in the flank, the momentum was blocked, and the fangs grazed the boatman's clothes and fell, and the rumble smashed into the sea!

Xiang Zhicheng also fell at the same time and fell into the water, but immediately stabilized his posture, slashed two swords on the fins of the fish, stepped on its body, and jumped back into the tent boat with his strength.

The fish monster lost its balance and could only struggle powerlessly, and finally fell deeper and deeper, and the blood continued to spill out, staining the sea red.

"Huh-" Xiang Zhicheng put away his sword and exhaled, and the fisherman who escaped death quickly knelt down and kowtowed to him across the sea: "The villain knocks on the immortal master for saving his life!"

Xiang Zhicheng waved his hand and said: "Protecting civilians is Xiang's duty, brother doesn't have to be polite, let's hold the boat and leave." ”

Then the fisherman got up and took his hands again. After experiencing this catastrophe, several people were in a state of anxiety and were speechless all the way.

The ship traveled several miles again, and finally reached the vicinity of Qingbo City, looking at the empty sea in front of them, everyone was stunned and shocked......

On the other side, Ren Dingbei was leading the team through the mountains, surrounded by shade trees, mossy under their feet, and the mud was extremely slippery, and they had not yet reached the top of the mountain, and the soles of their shoes were soaked with moisture.

"Young Master Lin, is there anything nearby?" The black eagle turned back from the sky and landed on Lin Yi's shoulder.

"Lang Lang Qiankun, can that faceless ghost still be invisible?" Lin Yi muttered to himself, tilting his head and looking at Gu Wanxi close behind, while the five soldiers cautiously followed not far away.

"There's a flat area in front of you where you can take a break. "Ren Dingbei is like a knife, cutting a path in the dense forest.

All the soldiers cheered up, stepped into the open space one after another, squatted to wipe their sweat and drink water. Lin Yi walked next to Ren Dingbei and whispered, "Brother Ren, it's not a way to look aimlessly like this. ”

"Hmm. Ren Dingbei replied casually, he understood the reason, but since he landed on the island, he has repeatedly used his Tianyan Sense, but he can't see the slightest demonic energy, except for searching around, there is no other way.

Gu Wanxi untied the water bag and walked over to hand it to Lin Yi, but suddenly the soles of her feet went soft, and the whole person sank into the soil......

"Wanxi!" Lin Yi reacted quickly, hurriedly grabbed her arm, and glanced at it, only to see that the turf on the ground cracked, revealing a puddle of yellow sand, constantly devouring Gu Wanxi's legs, and soon overflowing her knees.

"It's quicksand, don't struggle, otherwise you'll get tighter and tighter!" Ren Dingbei glared, then stretched out his hand and grabbed Lin Yi's belt.

Lin Yi took a breath, steadied his horse, and smiled to reassure: "Miss Gu, don't be afraid, I will slowly pull you up." ”

Ren Dingbei stared at the ground and said suspiciously: "The vegetation on this mountain is luxuriant, how can there be quicksand?"

Lin Yi didn't have time to take a closer look, and was about to exert his strength, but was interrupted by Gu Wanxi's exclamation.

"Your Excellency!" she said with a grim face, "It looks like something is pulling me down there—"

"What?" Lin Yi's palms were steep, and he felt a strong pull on Gu Wanxi, dragging him down, and suddenly fell into half a foot.

Lin Yi's face changed, and he hurriedly gathered his true qi to drag the person back a few inches, but he heard her arm rattling in his ears, as if he was about to dislocate, and he was so frightened that he lost his strength again.

When the officers and soldiers saw this, they all stood up and ran over to help. Shao Yanling hesitated for a moment, then drew his sword, turned back into the forest, cut off a branch, and threw it at them.

"There is Senior Sister Lao!" Lin Yi thanked loudly, let go of a hand to take it, and then handed it to Gu Wanxi and said, "You use this to support it first." ”

Gu Wanxi held it in a panic, holding the branches flat on both sides of the trap, so as to stabilize the fall. Lin Yiqing had a knife in his hand, and after measuring the distance, he stabbed at the soles of her feet.

"Poof!"

Lin Yi pulled out the light from the quicksand, pointed diagonally at the sky, and the tip of the blade was still stained with a touch of red.

"Saved...... Gu Wanxi felt that the restraints below had decreased sharply, and she immediately supported her body with a branch and pulled her legs out little by little.

She crawled a few steps away and collapsed on the grass, her calves peeking out of her messy long skirt, her ankles swollen and bruised.

Ren Dingbei roared angrily: "What a demon, he dares to hide in the soil and harm people." Brothers, dig it out together!"

"Yes!" the officers and men replied violently, and they all picked up their swords and dug into the quicksand. Lin Yi closed his eyes and opened the Heavenly Eye, carefully probing the ground, but still did not see half of the demonic energy.

After about half an hour, several officers and soldiers dug a deep pit with their hands and feet, and the sand was already mixed with the blood of monsters, but there was still no trace of it, and they couldn't help but lose their breath and look depressed.

Lin Yi clapped his hands clean, shook his head and said, "Brother Ren, this demon can hide in the land, let's leave a mark first, and then set a trap to catch it when we go back and prepare the tools." ”

"Alas. Ren Dingbei sighed and said abruptly: "Okay, this monster is very cunning, everyone goes home and thinks about it in the long run." ”

"Senior Brother Ren. Shao Yanling interjected and asked in a low voice, "Why don't I try it with a spell?"

"Nope. Ren Dingbei decisively refused, looked at her and said: "Your spell consumes a lot of spiritual energy, and now you don't even see the true body of the monster, and it's too violent to use it to dig a pit." ”

Lin Yi nodded in approval, thinking to himself, "If it can be solved so easily, why would Tianzun send five spirit officials to eliminate the disaster?"

As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, a soldier ran towards them, his movements were extremely panicked, waving his hands and shouting: "Immortal officials...... Something is wrong!"

Ren Dingbei frowned and asked, "Didn't you go to the shore with Xiang Zhicheng to seek medical treatment, and you will come back?"

The soldier didn't even have time to wipe his sweat, and he gasped and said, "Report to the lord, the little one just accompanied Xiang Lingguan to the sea, but when he got there, he found out——"

The soldier swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "The land is gone. ”

Everyone was stunned at the same time when they heard this, turned their heads and looked at each other, and the soldier shuddered: "Qingbo City disappeared mysteriously, leaving only an ocean, we can only return the same way, Xiang Lingguan estimates that everyone has been trapped on this isolated island." ”
