Chapter 231, Flying Eagle (2-in-1)
It turned out to be someone from the Oe Gang.
Li Wuxian heard their secret words, and his momentum was retracted.
The seventeen people on the opposite side breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, the closer they got just now, the more uncomfortable they felt, as if they were secretly targeted by a fierce beast.
Those seventeen people sacrificed their bodies one after another and saw Cao Qiuyan.
"Miss Cao!"
"Miss Qiuyan!"
When Cao Qiuyan saw her brother, her mood was slightly excited, her body flickered, but she finally stabilized, and said:
"Everyone, we have been attacked, why are you here?" she did not forget to introduce Li Wuxian, "This is Li Wuxian Li Shaoxia of Jinyunmen, if it weren't for Li Shaoxia's great help, I might have been wiped out this time......"
It turned out that these seventeen people were placed by Cao Qiuyan before he entered the wilderness, and when he heard Li Wuxian say that it was seventeen people, he suspected that they were his own brothers, and if he hadn't stopped them, these people might have been killed by Li Wuxian.
Among the seventeen people, a burly man walked out, he saw that Cao Qiuyan was injured, and the two people behind her were also in poor condition, his eyes stayed on Li Wuxian for a moment, and he slightly clenched his fist at Li Wuxian.
At the same time, he looked at the tragic battlefield with a little suspicion.
Li Wuxian nodded.
"Elder Cao!" the man's pupils suddenly shrank, and he looked at Cao Ang who was lying on the ground not far away.
Then he looked at Cao Qiuyan again, and Cao Qiuyan nodded.
The man sighed: "Miss Cao, what kind of enemy is the person who came, and even made Elder Cao ......."
At the same time, he was shocked in his heart, he could cause such a lot of destructive power, it turned out that Elder Cao had already reached such a point?
Cao Qiuyan said: "It's a long story, Elder Cao died because of the four ghosts of Shanyin...... He fought to the death to protect us. Fortunately, now the four ghosts have been killed by Li Shaoxia!"
When the seventeen people heard the four ghosts of Shanyin, except for a few who had never heard of the name, the others were shocked, and then looked at Li Wuxian in horror.
Being able to kill the four ghosts of Shanyin, in their eyes, even if they are not half-step grandmasters, they are not far behind.
The leader of the seventeen people saluted Li Wuxian solemnly at this time, "Thank you brother Tai for taking a righteous action and helping Zheng Dabiao in Xiadajiang." β
"You're welcome. Li Wuxian said lightly, "It's a matter of urgency to go back at this moment." β
The man nodded, admiring Li Wuxian's straightforwardness, "Okay! That's exactly the reason!" and said to Cao Qiuyan:
"Miss Cao...... The passage back to the city was blocked by thousands of mercenaries, who dug trenches, built fortresses, armed themselves, and interrogated everyone who had passed, some of whom were spared, and some of whom were taken away, and we felt that the situation had changed, so we came to meet you. β
Hearing the mercenaries, everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
"So, you don't know what happened in White Rock City?" Cao Qiuyan asked.
The man: "Yes. And I also released two carrier pigeons back, but there was no reply. β
Cao Qiuyan said silently, "Take the bodies of Elder Cao and your brothers with you, and let's take the secret passage." β
"Yes. Several people walked up to Cao Ang, all of them looking sad, but they couldn't hold back.
The crowd packed up and headed in the other direction.
On the way, Cao Qiuyan took the time to explain to Li Wuxian.
Li Wuxian learned that the Dajiang Gang had taken precautions decades ago and set up a secret passage to connect to the wild.
This is also to prepare for a gang attack one day, leaving a way back.
As soon as she said this, Li Wuxian suddenly thought that his own Jinyunmen didn't know if there was a secret passage.
"Ten miles ahead, there is a barren mountain, and there is a deep pool, and through the deep pool, there is the open sea. There are our ships in the open sea. After that, we can enter the Tianjiang River from the open sea and ......"
After a short walk, Cao Qiuyan introduced Li Wuxian.
Li Wuxian said: "Hehe, 'the mountains follow the plains, and the rivers flow into the great wilderness'." You've had the audacity to make the gang secret passage a joint code. β
Cao Qiuyan was stunned, "I didn't expect this stubble." β
After a while, Cao Qiuyan said: "Although I know that Li Shaoxia is helping us for his own sect, Qiuyan still feels heartfelt...... If I survive this catastrophe and don't die, I... Will ...... I, the Great River Gang, am kind to this, and I will never forget it..."
Li Wuxian didn't expect this Cao Qiuyan to make his words clear at this juncture, but his original intention was a transaction, and he was not so surprised when he heard the words, so he responded lightly.
The two of them said no more, walked for a while, and finally came to the foot of a barren mountain.
Sure enough, there was a deep pool.
"Shaoxia, you can follow me. Cao Qiuyan tightened her clothes, tied her hair with a belt, and said to Li Wuxian.
Li Wuxian nodded, although he had not deliberately practiced water, but he had profound internal skills, and there was no problem in holding his breath in the water.
"Everyone be careful, hand in hand, there is an underground river in this deep pool, and the water is turbulent!" Zheng Dabiao instructed.
The crowd agreed.
"Bang!"
At that moment, Zheng Dabiao jumped in first, and then several other people jumped in one after another.
A few injured people, someone took care of them, and those disciples who came later, each holding the hand of an injured disciple, jumped into the deep pool.
Li Wuxian felt his hand tighten, and found that he was being held by Cao Qiuyan.
"Shaoxia, go. Cao Qiuyan's voice was a little small.
Li Wuxian nodded, and the two jumped down at the same time.
The water in the deep pool was cold and biting, but Li Wuxian's internal strength was deep, and he didn't feel anything at all.
Cao Qiuyan was injured, her true qi was not pure, and as soon as she entered the water, she was shaking.
When he entered the bottom of the pool, his vision was affected, but fortunately, Li Wuxian's divine sense was strong, even in the water, his divine sense was swept away, and everything under the water was vividly visible.
Everyone went deeper and deeper, and according to Li Wuxian's estimate, they fell about ten zhang or so, and Zheng Dabiao, who led the way in front, stepped into a small canyon under the water.
A few deep-water swimming fish were startled and swam away with their tails, and a cloud of muddy sand emerged from the bottom of the water.
At this moment, Li Wuxian felt Cao Qiuyan's whole body tremble violently, as if he couldn't support it.
Cao Qiuyan herself was injured, coupled with this escape from death, the mental consumption was too great, and now it is the end of the strong crossbow, and it is inevitable that the internal strength will be weak.
At this time, she only felt as if her consciousness was gradually detaching from her body, and her whole person was groggy.
Li Wuxian noticed this situation, so he naturally didn't sit down and try it, his true anger turned slightly, and he immediately gave her a profit.
Cao Qiuyan only felt that through Li Wuxian's hand, a stream of pure internal force entered her body, and this internal force had a warm breath, which made her feel very comfortable and dispelled the chill at the bottom of the pool.
"Boom!"
Not long after, a black fish with spikes on its head in front of him suddenly crashed into a disciple of the Great River Gang.
The black fish was about two meters long, with a dark body and red eyes.
The Dajiang Gang disciple hurriedly waved the scimitar in his hand.
"Whew!"
But the spiky fish was extremely nimble under the water, and as soon as it swung its body, it dodged his knife, and then it pounced on Cao Qiuyan.
"Phew!"
Li Wuxian's free hand flicked slightly, and a stream of water went straight into the fish brain.
A stream of blood poured out.
The fish went straight to the body, and then floated up, and it was already dead.
When everyone in the Dajiang Gang saw this scene, they all looked at each other, and their hearts were shocked.
Li Wuxian didn't think there was anything, he didn't know what kind of fish this was, but he didn't know that the fish he had just killed was called the Sword Mullet, which was comparable to the strength of a seventh-stage martial artist, and the strength of the martial artist in the water was greatly reduced, even if it was an eight-stage person, he would have a headache when he encountered this fish monster.
But he didn't expect Li Wuxian to kill it with an understatement.
"Sure enough, he is the one who can kill the four ghosts of San'in. Zheng Dabiao nodded to Li Wuxian, and then took a few steps to explore the way.
After a short while, Zheng Dabiao found the entrance to the secret passage, and there was a fine iron gate at this entrance.
He gestured to the people behind him, and then pulled the deadbolt, and the door creaked and was pulled open.
Zheng Dabiao took the lead in getting in.
The crowd followed.
Inside turned out to be a passage.
Whew, the water is fast.
As soon as they entered, there was a vein of underground water flowing from right to left inside the door, and everyone let go of their bodies and let the current dive to the left.
After only three or four minutes, everyone felt that the light under the water was much brighter, and it turned out that everyone had passed through the quarantine area and left the field.
The surface of the open sea is calm, and the light of the huge full moon shines on the water, making the bottom of the water seem to be covered with a light veil.
Zheng Dabiao made a gesture, and everyone followed him to dive up.
At this moment, a large shadow appeared over the heads of the people.
This shadow is an ancient ship.
With a "bang", Zheng Dabiao first emerged from the sea.
Next, everyone showed their heads.
The ship is manned all year round, and when he saw that it was his own brother, he quickly put down the grille and took everyone on board.
...
...
Tulip City.
The headquarters of the Golden Cloud Gate, in the rest room of the True Transmission Disciples.
An old man was about seventy or eighty years old, with white hair and three long strands of hair under his chin, and at this moment his right hand was on the vein, and his left hand was on the beard, motionless, like a statue.
In front of him, Lin Ziyue was lying horizontally, his face was pale, his eyes were closed, and the thin quilt on his chest could not see the undulation of breathing at all.
After the tea, the old man withdrew his hand, shook his head, sighed, and stood up.
On the side, Song Gang walked over with a worried look on his face.
"Sir, how's that?" Song Gang hurriedly asked.
The doctor said: "Master Song, everyone has their own life, Master Lin is ...... Alas!"
Song Gang's eyes sank: "But my junior brother, my heart is still beating faintly, could it be that Mr. Fei didn't come out?"
As he spoke, Song Gang sent a wooden chair behind the doctor.
The doctor sat down.
Song Gang sat beside him again.
At this moment, there was no one else in the room, and Song Gang sent everyone away, worried that Lin Ziyue's matter would affect the mentality of the sect disciples.
When encountering problems, stability is the first priority.
"Naturally, he can detect a slight fluctuation, but his whole person is seriously injured, and there is not one qi in his body, and there is no way to return to the sky. β
"Is there nothing I can do, what if my master makes a move?"
The doctor nodded: "That... ...... too," he said, shaking his head.
After a long timeβ
"Got it. β
Song Gang exhaled and stood up.
The doctor also knew that Song Gang was going to send off the guest, put down the teacup, and took the initiative to leave.
Song Gang sent the doctor to the door and instructed the inner disciples: "Send the doctor back and pay 100,000 yuan for the consultation." β
"Yes, Senior Brother. β
The torture doctor shook his hand again and again, and whispered: "I can't help it, I can't help it, Master Lin's injury, I can't help it, how can I be embarrassed to accept the money again? You accompany Master Lin well, the old man will go first." β
Song Gang didn't care about the authentic and said, "Take it, by the way...... I hope that Mr. will not confide in my brother's injury. β
"Old and rotten provinces. β
The inner disciple sent the passbook, and the doctor excused himself a few times and accepted it.
Watching the doctor walk away, Song Gang's face was slightly gloomy: "Have you contacted Master and them?"
He asked an inner disciple on the side.
The inner disciple said, "Senior brother... Not yet, not yet. In addition, Senior Sister Qin Li and Senior Brother Li Wuxian have not been contacted..."
Keep staring. Gather all the inner disciples who are more than three stages of specialization and wait for me in the main hall. β
Song Gang gave an order and walked away directly.
"Yes, brother. β
Half an hour later.
The main hall of the Golden Cloud Gate headquarters.
The top seat was empty, and Song Gang sat in the first seat at the bottom.
It means that now it is just that Shi Tonglai is temporarily in charge of the affairs of the master.
There are dozens of seats in the main hall, and nearly half of them are seated at the moment.
At this moment, three more people came in at the door of the main hall. The three of them were panting and hugged their fists at Song Gang:
"Senior brother, we just came from the northern suburbs. "The northern suburbs are close to the wilderness, and the mountain road is southbound, although they can send telegrams, but the traffic is quite inconvenient.
"Hmm. Song Gang nodded, "Okay, everyone is ready." Here is one thing to announce. β
And they all listened intently.
"My Jinyunmen's shop in Xicheng is occupied by foreigners, and I got news that foreigners have united some underground forces to be unfavorable to my Jinyunmen. β
"From today onwards, all martial artists with a professional rank of three or more will be in the headquarters, and all industries will be replaced by other disciples. What will happen next, just wait for my instructions. β
Song Gang deliberately used foreigners as an excuse to let everyone prepare, and did not mention that Lin Ziyue was injured at the hands of martial arts masters.
The crowd agreed.
...
The Great River Gang, on the 'Flying Eagle'.
This is destined to be a sleepless night, healing the wounds, discussing the future, discussing the future, but more people are having a headache, what should I do next?
These people of the Dajiang Gang were either on duty in the open sea, or they were disciples of the Medicine Hall who had been in the wild during this time, and they had no idea what was going on outside.
Right now, except for the seriously injured disciple who was recuperating, the rest of the people gathered together to discuss the matter.
"Go to Yujin City first!" Finally, Cao Qiuyan gave a suggestion.
Zheng Dabiao said: "Miss Cao, why don't you go to Baishi City?"
Cao Qiuyan casually glanced at Li Wuxian at the end of the deck, and then said:
"The situation over there in White Rock City is unknown, and it is the old nest of the Blood Moon Gate, so you can't go lightly.
This time, we have basically confirmed that it was the attack led by the Blood Moon Gate in the wild...... Therefore, with our current combat strength, if we encounter the people of the Blood Moon Gate, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.
Tulip City is different, our branch in Tulip City is not weak, and there are brothers from the 'War Department' over there.
Before I came to the field, I had already heard that Zhou Qing and Yan Sanniang, two elders of the 'War Department', were also in Yujin City. β
When everyone heard that Zhou Qing and Yan Sanniang were there, their spirits were shocked.
"With Elder Zhou Qing and the two of them here, Yujin City should be fine. β
Everyone settled down and then packed up and didn't mention it.
Next, the Dajiang Gang discussed some details before gradually dispersed.
"Make something hearty and feed the brothers. Zheng Dabiao said to the chef on the boat.
This Flying Eagle has been prepared by the Dajiang Gang for a long time, and there is naturally no shortage of tops to eat.
"Let's go, let's go and officiate at the funeral. Then he waved.
The crowd dispersed.
Cao Qiuyan watched her brothers leave, took a deep breath, and walked towards Li Wuxian.
At this moment, Li Wuxian had already replaced his filthy and torn clothes, dressed in white, standing prominently at the bow of the boat, and the wind came out in front of him, with a sense of elegance.
"Li Shaoxia... Thanks to you these days, Qiu Yan respects Shaoxia with a glass of thin wine. β
Cao Qiuyan came behind Li Wuxian and said.
Next to Cao Qiuyan, there was a disciple of the Dajiang Gang standing with a plate in his hand.
At this moment, Li Wuxian sensed that on the other side of the boat, someone dressed up the dead brothers of the Dajiang Gang and abandoned them in the sea.
Then they all drank a bowl of wine.
This is the "sea burial" of the Dajiang Gang, and Li Wuxian is not surprised.
He took the glass and drank it down.
"Miss Cao, how many days are there until Yujin City?"
"This is a waterway, and it will start in a while, bypass this coastal sea, and after entering the Tianjiang River, it will take two days at most. β
Li Wuxian and Qin Li came to Baishi City from Yujin City, and it took more than two days to take the train, but they didn't expect that the waterway was faster than the land route.
But come to think of it, it is precisely because the waterway is faster that the Blood Moon Gate is concerned about the water passage of the Great River Gang.
After a short time, Cao Jin took care of his wound and came to chat with Li Wuxian to relieve his boredom.
After the three of them chatted for a while, the sea burial over there came to an end, and the Flying Eagle slowly sailed.
Thinking of a group of friends in Yu Jincheng, Li Wuxian actually felt a little close to home.
There was no word all the way, until late at night, when the big ship finally entered the Tianjiang River.
The Tianjiang River is mighty, rushing south, and the Flying Eagle is smooth and fast.
