Chapter 7: Departure

After a night of storms, all that was left was high and cloudy, and the sun was shining.

and the endless ocean.

Everything that used to be was gone, whether it was a hill or a plain, a fortress or a forest, the entire Mochizuki Prefecture, a land with a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles, completely turned into a huge flat lake.

Jingjiang, Cangjiang, and Wangyue Lake are completely integrated.

It's just that at this moment, on the sparkling water, except for the occasional floating trees and weeds, there is not even a single corpse in sight, let alone a single figure.

The whole world seems to have become a tomb of dead water.

Only where Duan Heng stood, a large piece of cold ice with a thickness of more than three meters was floating there motionlessly, and on the cold ice, dozens of men, women, and children were cowering and looking at the unfamiliar surroundings in horror, waiting for the unknown fate in fear.

There was a sound of water, and more than a dozen figures appeared, but it was Zhuo Laodou and others, each of whom had another person with him, who dived out from underwater.

At this time, the man on the cold ice hurriedly stretched out his hand and pulled the group up.

"How many more people are down there?"

Duan Heng turned his head and asked lightly, although it was only one night, the change in his whole person was unimaginable.

Especially his inadvertent aura, Zhuo Laodou, who was once the second master of the Black Flag Hunter Regiment, did not dare to look directly.

And between casual gestures, it seems to be able to stir up wind and thunder.

However, it was also a short time for him to regain his appearance before, so except for a limited number of Zhuo Laodou and others, most of the others took it for granted.

"Well, there were about eighty people in the bunker, but they didn't want to leave. Because the entire bunker has not been damaged in any way, and in the past two years, all the reserves of Ji Boss and Ma Yizi have been placed in the bunker, and they are confident that they will be able to hold out until the moment when the flood recedes. Of course, most of these people are horses. "Zhuo Laodou is a little unnatural. Now facing Duan Heng, he always has an inexplicable feeling of being suppressed in his heart, and he can't afford to resist the idea.

"Oh, well, don't force it, let's leave. Duan Heng said disappreciatively.

"Leave? Are you sure you're right? Shouldn't we just wait here, wait for the flood waters to recede, and rebuild our homes?" suddenly a man on the ice boat said loudly, but he was an immigrant coolie. But in the past five years, Ji Kuan has taken great care of these earth fellows, so they are also well fed, warmly dressed, and their cultivation is progressing quickly, so naturally, they are also full of nostalgia for this place.

His words immediately caused a lot of people to clamour.

"Yes! What's going on? You didn't say you were leaving, didn't you trap us? We're under the bunker. There's enough space, there's enough reserves, why should we leave!"

Another shouted, but this one was a member of the Hunters.

"No, send us back, you can't rudely interfere with our will and fate. ”

"Yes. This is deception, I thought I could come up and get some air, but it's good that you want to leave, get out of here. Where else can we go? Where else can we stay. ”

"Even if we want to leave, but we have to move all the reserves in the bunker, that's all our family, why should we let the rest of us have it alone?"

......

The voices of gossip were a mess.

The only ones who could remain silent were Zhuo Laodou's people, as well as Zhu Yu and Lin Yulou, and the others, without exception, were all against leaving.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Zhuo Laodou couldn't help but whisper to Duan Heng and asked, "Brother Duan, is this flood really impossible to retreat?"

"Will you spit out the meat that you eat in your mouth?" Duan Heng shook his head slightly, this is not the earth, there is a saying that the sea embraces all rivers and rivers return to the sea, even if it is between the dragon clans, they are divided into camps and mountains, and in addition to the dragon clan, there are also those powerful water demons, they all occupy a territory, and they will not let go.

Therefore, don't look at the surging river and go downstream, but in fact, most of the river water will not really flow into the ocean, but will form a large lake at the end, or through the way of Jiaolong rain, or other methods, the water flow will be reincarnated.

In short, how much the human race longs for the land, then the dragon clan and even the water demon will have a longing for the river.

What's more, this incident is not accidental.

Duan Heng also just figured out that in the past, he was really frightened by Luo Qingniang's aura of exhaustive solutions, especially when he was placed under surveillance anytime and anywhere, his strength was low, his knowledge was limited, and he didn't know many clues, so that Luo Qingniang was invincible pessimistic thoughts.

But now that he has broken through the game and is no longer a pawn on the chessboard, then he looks back at everything that used to be, and immediately discovers more flaws and secrets.

First of all, Luo Qingniang, as a descendant of the imperial clan who was nominally exiled under house arrest, her goal could not be to monopolize Mochizuki City, because no matter how much territory she robbed, it would be meaningless, it would only make the imperial clan even more angry, and her crime would be even greater.

Therefore, Luo Qingniang's real plan should be to fish in troubled waters, and her real goal is someone, or something, as for the rest, she won't care.

And since it has been determined, Luo Qingniang's goal is not on the territory.

Then, Bing Qianli's motive is very confusing, is he deliberately pretending to be used by Luo Qingniang, just to seize the territory of Mochizuki Prefecture?

You must know that before this, the cooperation between Luo Qingli and the Jingjiang Dragon Clan was very deep, and the two sides were almost win-win, and Bing Qianli had no reason to break a perfect plate, but to monopolize a broken plate, which was not logical.

Another point, Luo Qingniang's plan was obviously used by Bing Qianli, so there was the so-called runaway from home, Xiaoyue Ji was exterminated, all of this is related to Luo Qingli on the surface, and then the second layer of truth is controlled by Luo Qingniang, but the third layer of truth is that Bing Qianli will plan.

So Duan Heng was very worried, behind all these incidents, there might be a bigger plan hidden.

And the capture of Mochizuki Prefecture is part of this plan.

If the matter has been stirred up by a series of conspiracies so far, then Duan Heng dares to predict that there will be no more conspiracy in the future, but an earth-shattering big move.

Even, if Duan Heng heard the news of the rebellion of the Jingjiang Dragon Clan in the future, he would not be surprised.

Therefore, the flood will not recede, Mochizuki Prefecture will also become a yellow flower of tomorrow, and it will be even more unsafe here, if you don't take advantage of those big water demons, the shrimp soldiers and crabs will escape before they will fully control this new territory, then they will never want to escape.

These thoughts were only circling in Duan Heng's mind for a while, but he wouldn't explain another word.

However, Zhuo Laodou has also become an old fritter, and as soon as Duan Heng reminded him, he immediately understood, and immediately shouted: "You pigs, what are you yelling about? No one forced you to leave, stay if you want to stay, what nonsense!"

It's just that as soon as he finished saying this, he was immediately attacked strongly.

"Hey, you're still unreasonable, we won't leave, you have the ability to tie up Lao Tzu!"

"That is, the minority obeys the majority, why do you just leave with a word, I strongly ask that everyone vote, let you see what the will of the people cannot be disgraced, and the people's will is greater than the sky!" A middle-aged man who was as thin as a bean sprout spat and shouted slogans excitedly, and he was very skillful.

For a while, the ice became more and more lively.

"Uh, Brother Duan, don't mind, this is a talent discovered by Boss Ji before, and he has a lot of insights into inspiration, and he originally wanted him to improve the efficiency of the coolies......" Zhuo Laodou explained rather embarrassedly.

"There's so much nonsense. ”

Duan Heng was noncommittal, and with a wave of his hand, the huge ice cube broke in two.

One is those who want to stay, and the other is Duan Heng and others.

"Hey, that guy, what are you doing?"

"Stop, this ice cube is shared by everyone, why are you-"

The noise was thrown away in a blink of an eye.

The ice cube where Duan Heng was located went away at a great speed, and in a few moments, there was no trace, only the rolling waves remained, and there were those who did not want to leave.

At this moment, they suddenly realized that they seemed to be missing something.

――

A few days later, above that vast ocean, a piece of ice came from a distance at high speed, this ice was already twice as large as before, but mainly formed a narrow fusiform, and there was a one-meter-high layer of protection at the edge, which looked no different from an iceship.

But at this moment, everyone on the boat, including Duan Heng, is like a great enemy, because behind this ice boat, there are countless splashes of water rising, but countless shrimp soldiers and crabs will chase after them.

With such a huge number, even Duan Heng can only retreat now.

If it weren't for the fact that the black water in his body was now extremely full of evil qi and could control the ice ship to sail at extremely fast speed, he would have died in the belly of the fish at this moment.

But even so, their scenario is not optimistic.

First of all, they could no longer judge the direction, because from the next day onwards, the sky over the ocean was shrouded in a thick mist, and there was nothing they could do about it.

Secondly, the black water evil qi in Duan Heng's body was exhausted after all, and his cultivation was only a child after all, even if he had the Qinglong Immortal Ding, there was nothing to make up.

Third, that is, in this newly formed ocean, there are too many small water demons, shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and they almost killed all the way out when they left the place that day.

"Look, there's an island up ahead!"

At this time, Wu Shaoxiang, who was standing at the front of the ice boat, suddenly shouted in surprise, and then everyone looked up together, and sure enough, in the mist in front of them, a small island with about dozens of acres of land was looming.

Of course, the predecessor of this small island was actually a peak of several hundred meters.

"Hey, I know where this is, this is the Lion Rock next to the Lion Castle, and the big city controlled by the Immortal King Joey is near here, maybe we will be saved!"

Zhuo Laodou suddenly shouted in surprise.
