At night, the wind is quiet and the waves are small, the towering mountains on both sides of the strait are faintly reflected in the water, occasionally there are a few strange mountain beast cries, the cargo ship has sailed for more than 50 miles, and the helmsman also takes the opportunity to rest a little and save up strength.

Ye Luo thought, Boss Zhu sent a message to Chu Mansion, and it was estimated that it would take two days to deliver, presumably Jiang Ling must have been sulking in his heart, and promised to go south with her at that time, which is good, after delaying these days, he has to smuggle in alone.

When I drank to the fullest, I began to think back on the past, as if everything that happened was a catastrophe, and I was most sorry for her.

Yes, it's Yueyi.

He took the empty wine bottle in his hand, threw it vigorously, rolled out a few waves on the surface of the water, and then sank into the center of the Qinwei River. He put the sword sideways and slept on the bow of the boat with Long Yuan's scabbard on his pillow.

The residual heat after drinking dissipated, and the body began to get cold, and the cold in early spring was still very heavy, although Gang Li could keep out the cold, but it was still a little cold. Ye Luo bounced up and got into the cabin, leaning on the bulkhead with Long Yuan in his arms, looking thoughtlessly at a group of dazed cargo ship guys.

There was also a guard on night duty sitting on the cloth bag in the cabin, reading a book of strange creatures, which had just reached the age of not being confused, and looked very mellow.

Ye Luo licked the corners of his lips and asked softly, "Why does my brother still look at these?"

The old brother smiled and said: "I'm in a panic at night, and I'm not sleepy, just learn about the strange things on the rivers and lakes and add some interest." Besides, on weekdays, I travel by boat, and I don't have a few taels of silver to support my family, so I go to the teahouse and wine shop to be a storyteller in my spare time to earn a family subsidy. ”

Ye Luo sighed a little when he heard it, indeed, the people's firewood, rice, oil and salt are not easy to come by, unlike those dignitaries and dignitaries, the real money and silver that they shake their hands should be rewarded at every turn, and one hundred taels will be squandered.

The guard brother continued to bury his head in the book, Ye Luo touched his chest, and there were some silver taels, but it was not appropriate to give them away, and the elder brother did not accept them, so he simply lost this thought, if we meet again in the future, help him find a good errand.

The flame of the lamp and candle gradually dimmed, Ye Luo was also a little confused, he approached and picked the lamp flame, sat down on the ground, listened to the sound of the breeze, and slowly fell asleep.

I don't know how long later, the bottom of the river rumbled violently, the cargo ship shook, and the helmsman braced the oars to keep the ship balanced.

"Bang ......"

The hull shook violently again, and the sailors on deck hurriedly pulled down the mast sails so that they would not turn on their heads and sink into the river under the wind.

Ye Luo threw himself to the front of the hull, jumped over the deck, jumped seven feet high, and hung on the mast to watch the movement in the water. By the light of the torches, swept into the river, a huge black figure was half-exposed, striking the bottom of the boat.

There was another shock, and the people on the deck were all frightened, and asked Ye Luo about the situation under the water.

Ye Luo didn't know the specific situation, so he could only say indifferently: "There are monsters under the water. ”

The group of people was even more frightened, their palms clenched tightly, and they sweated while holding the hilt of their knives, but the sailors on the side were a little calm, but they did not dare to enter the water, for fear of being devoured by monsters.

With such a big river as the Qinwei River, it is still very possible to give birth to some water trolls, and each of them is like a mirror in their hearts. But if you are hit by this monster again, I am afraid that the whole ship will be buried in the river.

Ye Luo pulled out Long Yuan and made a cut on his arm, blood seeped along the blade, and the sword body suddenly shone with a red light. Holding his breath and condensing force, he channeled the six veins of the force, and manipulated the long sword to rise into the air and enter the water like a long rainbow.

The power on the long sword was dissipated when it met the water, but the water monster was still stabbed by Long Yuan. Ye Luo put away his sword and returned his hand, the smell of blood on the sword caused the water monster to be extremely restless, and he turned around and surfaced, his huge body was like a broken wall in the water, and the black skin like armor scales was dazzling in the torch. The two glow-in-the-dark eyes emit a faint blue glow.

Everyone took a few steps back with their knives, glanced at Ye Luo and said, "Dragon!"

Ye Luo motioned for everyone to shrink back and fight the monster alone. He swept his sword like a meteor, changing horizontally, and in the blink of an eye, flew out a few steps and stabbed at the dragon's palate.

The dragon swayed its long tail and exerted its strength, splashing a monstrous splash, biting the long sword with his teeth and throwing Ye Luo out of three steps, he clicked the water to exert force, freeing up a few feet, Long Yuan rotated like a wheel, cutting off the long tail from the side, and the dragon cut its tail on the side, and the blade of the sword made a splash.

The dragon sucked in a belly of river water, swam around, and spewed a column of water towards Ye Luo.

Ye Luo's feet were brisk, one foot stepped on the dragon's back, the side sword stabbed fiercely, Long Yuan finally cut through the armor scales, and the blood flowed into the water, dyed into a pool of blood. Then turn the sword and cut off a piece of dragon tail skin in an instant.

The dragon's four claws slapped the waves, shaking its blood-colored tail to stop it, and Ye Luo had to fly away again. Back at the top of the deck, the dragon opened its dustpan and rushed over to bite it, Ye Luo was worried about hurting the ship's personnel, so he grabbed the step with his sword, and the blade of the sword slashed through the fangs, cutting two of them, and cutting the jaw horns.

The dragon rolled in pain, and the waves were so agitated that even the hull of the ship could not stop shaking. Seeing the situation, Ye Luo stepped on the dragon's back with a lunge, held Long Yuan with both hands, and stabbed his sword into the dragon's brain. Long Yuan went two feet deep and pierced the skin of his jaw.

The dragon struggled with all his strength, but he still couldn't hold his body, and his entire torso began to sink, Ye Luo pulled out his long sword, and a blood stain rose on the surface of the river, swinging out a blood flower.

Ye Luo gasped and stood on the tip of the boat, and the dragon slowly fell, sinking into the center of the river.

Everyone applauded and celebrated, clasped their fists and clasped their hands in praise.

A sailor next to him said: "Brother is very skilled, at a glance you know that he is not an ordinary person." ”

Ye Luo grinned.

The old brother who read the strange things in the rivers and lakes seemed to be very surprised, and ran up to pat Ye Luo on the shoulder and said: "Brother is the kind of sword cultivator on the rivers and lakes, he has the ability to cut waterfalls with a sword, if he enters the Immortal Mansion Dao Gate to practice, he can become an immortal." ”

Everyone was amazed, and now that they have seen such skills, they all believe the rumors of those rivers and lakes, and they are convinced of the mysterious and strange things in the mouths of the storytellers.

The honest old brother was full of interest in this, and asked Ye Luo again: "With such martial arts as a brother, he may be able to beat Kongtong Sword Ancestor, and it is rumored that he is the best in the world, unmatched?"

Ye Luoxin smiled happily: "The world is different, the sword of the old man of the wind, no one in the world can break it." ”

"Have you tried?"

"No!" replied Leaf Fall, calmly.

"Then why not give it a try?"

Ye Luo remembered that he had visited the Sword Shrine when he was in Cisse, and he didn't find the Wind Senior, but he also watched the sword style of the Sword Shrine, which was indeed exquisite.

"Brother, the old man is a scattered person who travels the world, and he can't be found in the sword mound, and he has visited him once without results. ”

The crowd was confused, but they were still amazed.

Several helmsmen who entered the cabin took out a large iron hook and said: "Brother, the dragon is a rare thing in the world, the armor scale skin is as tough as iron, it is a rare treasure, the brothers are ready to fish it up, exchange it for some silver, enough for a few years of beef and wine to eat and drink." ”

Ye Luo nodded slightly.

A few big men rushed to the bow of the ship and cast a big net, the iron hook sank into the center of the river, and a few sailors who were good at understanding water entered the river in the dark, hooked the dragon's four claws with the faint light of the firefly beads, and fished the net onto the deck.

The guards each armed with knives, broke open the dragon's belly, and cut off pieces of armor scales.

The old man dug out the entrails of the dragon with his bare hands, and found a shiny glowing thing in it, like a red pearl.

"Brother, come on, come on!"

Ye Luo took a step closer and watched the blood stain his fingernails.

"I've read in books that the pill of the dragon knot is a strange thing, and it is extremely useful to those Taoist immortals. As a sword cultivator, you must also be of great benefit to receive it for you. ”

The old brother pulled his shirt and wiped the blood stains on it, and stuffed it into Ye Luo's hand.

Ye Luo didn't refuse, and put it on his chest. Seeing them busy, he didn't bother anymore, and entered the cabin alone, sat cross-legged on the floor, pinched his luck, mobilized all the qi in his body, and began to recover his strength.

The qi sinks into the dantian, and the meridians loosen and close. The force of the three grades of the middle vehicle came into contact with the air, and a halo faintly appeared.
