Chapter 47: The Trap
It is not difficult to make a raft, especially when there are many martial arts masters in the team, at least the logging will be much faster. However, the men did not have time to begin their carpentry, for they were not too far from their pursuers, and if the movement of the logging had drawn them in again, the two men had been killed in vain the previous night.
However, this is difficult for a group of masters, among them, in addition to the mother and son of the Empress Dowager Zhou, even Ding Yu, who has the lowest martial arts, has almost touched the edge of the first-class, and if you want to learn from the Dharma Patriarch, you can't cross the river with a reed, but it is more than enough to step on a big branch with a thick bowl mouth and drift down the river.
So they picked up a dozen thick dead branches from the forest and threw them into the river one by one, and at each time, a figure jumped out and fell lightly on the dead branches, drifting down the river. Murong Longcheng and Duan Yingsi, who had the highest martial arts, carried Chai Zhongxun and Empress Dowager Zhou on their backs respectively, and they still looked at ease.
Although this drifting is very chic, it is impossible to drift all the way to Guandu, so everyone drifts while taking off the belt, and when they see the driftwood of the right thickness, they roll it back with the belt, and they can get enough wood for two rafts in half a day. Next, I went ashore to cut a few old mountain vines, tied the wood into two small wooden rafts, and finally I didn't need to carry a breath of true qi to sway on the surface of the water, and my tense nerves could be relaxed a little.
But for some reason, the situation has improved greatly compared to the previous two days, and with each turn of the wooden platoon, the possibility of the team being caught up is reduced a little, but Ding Yu feels a faint pressure in his heart, which is gradually becoming heavy.
He peeked at Duan Yingsi, and saw that he also frowned slightly, and his face was solemn, Ding Yu sighed in his heart: Martial arts have reached the level of Duan Yingsi, and the sixth sense should have been developed to a considerable extent, and even he has this look, which proves that it is not his own illusion, and there is really danger ahead!
Ding Yu couldn't help but speak: "Master, let's go ashore and take the land route!"
Duan Yingsi glanced at Ding Yu and was surprised in his heart: Is it really a father and son heart-to-heart? I just felt a little inexplicably uneasy here, and Ke'er also felt it? If there are only two of us, father and son, of course we can do whatever we want, but ......
He glanced at the Empress Dowager Zhou who was on the wooden raft, her physique was already weak, plus she had been tired day and night for the past three or four days, her nerves were nervous, and her body and mind were already exhausted, but she was just holding on, as soon as she got on the wooden raft and relaxed, the whole person fell into a semi-coma, seeing that her face was abnormally flushed, I am afraid that she was feverish. At this time, if she returns to the shore and is carried around on her back, she will be killed.
And Chai Zhongxun on the other wooden row was also lying motionless, looking no better than the Empress Dowager Zhou, at this time, where could he go ashore!
Duan Yingsi sighed helplessly, and did not respond to Ding Yu's words, but said to him: "Haosheng takes care of the Queen Mother, don't let her get wet and cold." ”
Ding Yu looked at the Empress Dowager Zhou, and also understood Duan Yingsi's concerns, so he didn't say anything at the moment, only took off his coat and covered the Empress Dowager Zhou.
The two wooden rafts drifted for most of the day without any danger, watching the sky turn dark, just after passing a forked river, turning into a smooth and mirror-like bay. The trees on both sides of the bank are thick and verdant, the reeds are swaying on the shore, and the surroundings are quiet, except for the sound of the breeze and the sound of water.
Being in such a beautiful place in the world, the uneasiness in Ding Yu's heart became more and more intense, like a beast walking into a trap.
As soon as the word trap popped up in his mind, Ding Yu's heart jumped suddenly, could it be that this place is really a trap?
At this time, Murong Longcheng, who was on the wooden row in front of him, suddenly said loudly: "There are no birds singing in the forest, there must be ambush soldiers, quickly land on the shore!"
Ding Yu suddenly woke up, they came along the road, the apes and birds in the forest on both sides of the river were endless, and when they arrived here, it was silent, there must be a large number of ambushes, and the birds and beasts in the forest were scared away!
But even Murong Dragon City found out too late.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard two "whirring" sounds, and two huge boulders of the size of a fence flew up from the cliff on the right, crossed two parabolas, and then smashed down on the front and back of the two small wooden rafts, and the huge shock wave blew up a large amount of lake water along with the two wooden rafts into the air.
Ding Yucang was caught off guard and was thrown into the water. Eventually, he was quick to react, and as he left the raft, he flipped upside down, plunging his head and feet into the water to minimize the impact. At the same time, with the force of this fall, it sank to the bottom of the river.
He clearly knew that since it was a trap, it must be more than just two stone bullets, and if he acted rashly, he was afraid that he would only fall into the enemy's calculations.
Sure enough, as soon as he used the stirring mud to cover his figure, he saw more than a dozen water ghosts swimming from all directions. On this wooden row, there were also Empress Dowager Zhou, the Wang brothers, and the horseman Wang San who fell into the water at the same time, these people only had the rough water ability of the horse husband Wang San, he surfaced to the water and took a deep breath, then swam to the Wang family brothers closest to him, trying to rescue the two of them back to the shore.
It's a pity that the brothers of the Wang family are not able to understand the water, as soon as they fall into the water, they can't help but pounce on their hands and feet, Wang San was beaten to the point of blue and swollen face as soon as he got close, and the three of them were entangled, seven or eight water ghosts were approaching the side, and the water thorn in his hand was stabbed over without saying anything, and the surrounding river was immediately dyed red - the poor three of the Wang family are all martial arts masters, if they are on the shore, they can also maneuver around for a while, but after falling into the water in a hurry, they died in the hands of several water ghosts who only have superficial kung fu.
On the other hand, the treatment of the Empress Dowager Zhou was much better, she was stimulated by the cold river water, and immediately woke up from her coma, and involuntarily wanted to inhale, but inhaled a large mouthful of water, and she was also fluttering in panic. Two water ghost soldiers swam close to her, one of them encircled one of her arms and led her to the surface.
As for Duan Yingsi, he didn't fall into the water at all. When he felt the huge force under his feet, he made a sticky word trick without thinking, and his feet were firmly glued to the wooden raft, and when the wooden raft was about to rise, he fell a thousand pounds and pressed the wooden raft back to the water.
At this time, everyone on the wooden raft fell into the water except him, and he was anxiously looking left and right, just in time to see two water ghosts floating out of the water with the Empress Dowager Zhou. As soon as he raised his hand, two fingers **** came out, piercing the heads of the two water ghosts, and then he was about to reach out to pull the Empress Dowager Zhou.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, the Empress Dowager Zhou broke out of the water and flew to the shore backwards. Duan Yingsi saw that the two water ghosts just now tied a rope around her waist, and the other end of the rope was in the hands of a big black man standing on the shore with a body like a half-cut iron tower.
Duan Yingsi's pupils shrank, and the use of this person's strength had clearly reached the realm of rigidity and softness, and the circle turned into wishful thinking; what made him even more awe-inspiring was that there was still gray stone powder left on the face of the big black man--could it be that the two giant stone bullets just now were also thrown by this person? If this is the case, this person's combat power is afraid that he has already advanced to the super-first-class realm. (To be continued.) )
