Chapter 200: The Old Man and the Youth
In the morning, the bright red sun rises, staining the clouds in the sky. The gorgeous morning glow reflects the red on the vast river, like the red silk cut by the fairy, decorating the river surface extraordinarily beautifully.
The waves on the river are jumping, and the river is singing happily, slowly flowing eastward. Suddenly, a gust of wind rose on the river, and the river became very fierce, like a golden-scaled python, rolling, whistling, and rushing away.
At this time, the Yangtze River was transformed, wearing silver armor and majestic. The river roared, the Yangtze River is like an elite division that has experienced the white war, the face does not change, work together, break through the encirclement, where it passes, the Yangtze River is indestructible, devastating and decaying, just like not a single grass grows after the war. Countless small boats on the river were suddenly stormy, and some did not even have time to turn the bow of the boat, and the boat overturned in an instant, and it was a mess, crying out for the sky and the earth, making a mess, and everyone was in danger.
The fishermen who often beg for a living on the river naturally understand that there must be monsters worshipping the sudden hurricane and waves on this flat land. There was nothing they could do, so they could only kneel on the bow of the boat and pray incessantly, hoping that the dragon king would continue to bless their safety as usual.
"Lord Dragon, please bless our family with peace!" Lao Suo said very reverently. As soon as the words fell, there were countless sounds of falling water on the river, and the fishermen on the small boats did not hesitate to put all the harvest of this fishing into the river.
The river is shrouded in a misty fog that makes people feel like a fairyland. Let the wind and waves on the river surface carry a sense of mystery, as if there are thousands of troops and horses fighting. Thousands of miles of blood, people turn on their backs. It was nearly half an hour, and the waves on the river finally calmed down, and the hurricane had passed, and the river breeze took away a little dense fog on the river. The fishermen had finally escaped death, and the frightened and nervous expressions on their faces gradually bloomed.
"Look, there's a python there!" shouted a fourteen-year-old boy on the boat in horror.
Although it is the first time to enter the river to fish, he has lived by the river since he was a child, but he is used to seeing this hurricane and huge waves. Although this time it was on the river. It's not scared either. And at this moment, the wind and waves are calm, and the child's mood is restored. He was very sharp-eyed, and at a glance he saw a creature as thick as a python floating not far from the river, with black scales constantly shuttling up and down in the river. It shone with a mysterious and terrifying light! The monster seems to be coming in the direction of their boat!
This old man heard this. The brows that had already stretched out furrowed again, although they were old and dizzy, after a breath. But following the direction pointed by the grandson, I still saw the monster!
Seeing this, Lao Suo hurriedly took the dog and knelt down, praying incessantly, praying that the child's ignorance had offended the gods, and that the gods would protect their safety and go ashore safely!
"Lord Long, our Jiang family has been passed down for three generations, Lao Suo is just this one grandson, please let him live, Lao Suo is willing to hand over all his family wealth and his life to you!" As soon as the words fell, this Lao Suo jumped into the river without hesitation, and was immediately swallowed by the river, and after a while, countless blood in the river water had spurted out, and Lao Suo's coat floated on the river.
"Grandpa!" the frightened and miserable cry of the dog resounded across the river, but many of the fishermen around him were beyond the reach of the whip.
But as if their gods hadn't heard it at all, the black python still didn't let them go. The river surged upward, and the black python jumped to the surface of the water again! The high head was already upturned, its eyes were bloodshot like a gong, and the corners of its mouth were stained with countless bloods.
"You monster, return my grandfather, I'll fight with you!" said the dog, who had already picked up the steel fork and yelled at the python. The sacred object that his grandfather had always believed in actually ate him so bloodily, aroused the blood in the heart of the dog, he was no longer like his grandfather, he was no longer submissive, he wanted to fight back!
The giant python didn't seem to look at it at all, such a small boy at his feet, the giant tail swept horizontally, and the boat flew up and fell into the air, breaking into two, and even taking the young man, fell into the giant mouth of the giant python's blood basin.
Those fishermen not far away, seeing that it was so terrifying, in just a few breaths, the ancestors and grandchildren of the Jiang family entered this monster. The sudden hurricane and waves just now are only afraid that this monster is also driven. They all accelerated to the shore!
But it was already too late! How could this black python let the fat in its mouth fly! In an instant, I saw another gust of fishy wind rising on the surface of the river, setting off countless earth-shattering waves! Wherever the huge waves passed, all the boats were overturned into the river one after another, and a miserable cry of crying sounded on the surface of the river, and a cloud of blood floated up, and the whole air was mixed with a strong bloody position!
Suddenly, a white dot in the upper reaches of the river came down rapidly, faster and faster! Like a long silver fish, it was near the group of fishing boats in the blink of an eye. The struggling fishermen finally saw clearly, it turned out to be a white sailboat, and the two gold-plated characters "Jingming" on the sailboat were so dazzling!
"This is the Immortal Elder of the Pure Ming Dao! Our savior is finally here!" the fishermen shouted excitedly, running to tell each other!
The black python was also attracted by the white sailboat that suddenly appeared in front of him, let go of the fishermen who fled for their lives, and really rushed to the white sailboat in a flash!
But he saw two people, an old man and a young man, standing in the bow of the sailboat. The old man's weather-beaten face was already covered with deep wrinkles, and his hair was half a hundred, but he had a childish face, full of red light, and his spirit was strong. The straight body did not tremble in the cold wind, in the huge fluctuations on the side of the ship.
Next to Lao Suo was a young man who looked like a scholar, dressed in white, with a long sword hanging at his waist, and his demeanor was elegant, like a son of a handsome family, graceful and suave.
It turned out that this old man and young man were Xu Xun and Guo Pu who were preaching in the Jiangnan area, recruiting disciples, and looking for the blessed land of the cave!
Their deep eyes were fixed on the surface of the river, seeing the black waves from far and near. There was no trace of fear in his eyes, but a trace of brilliance flowed tactfully.
"Shoot the arrows!" said the old man suddenly, like a thunderclap on a sunny day. Suddenly, dozens of strong men behind him, long bows that had already been pulled into the shape of a full moon were launched one after another, and countless arrows rained down into the river, and the river suddenly rolled violently, and a little black water emerged from below!
"Evil beast! This hurts the heavens and harms the reason, and the lives of the people are disregarded! Hurry up and take your life!" Xu Xun shouted at the river, and with a wave of one hand, the three-foot iron sword in his hand had already turned into countless sword qi and flew out. Stir up countless waves. From time to time, there was the roar of the giant python.
The python saw this. Finally, he met his opponent, and he did not have the slightest fear, but only aroused his anger even more.
Hearing a loud sound of breaking water, the python jumped out of the water like a cloud. Everyone on board saw this. Don't wait for Xu Xun's order. Countless strong bows and crossbows flew out. So close distances. In addition, these strong men on the ship were all warriors from one in a hundred, and suddenly the countless arrows were accurately shot at the giant python.
I saw that the black scales on the giant python flashed with a burst of blue light, and those arrows fell into the river one after another. Not even the slightest trace of the arrow remained. Only a few arrows with very tricky angles penetrated the weakest scale armor under the black python's body and entered the giant python's body, bringing out a trace of blood. In particular, Xu Xun's sword qi was not only very tricky, but this attack power was even more amazing, directly leaving a wound of several inches in the black python's lower abdomen, which was shocking.
Seeing that he was negligent for a while, the black python was actually injured, and he was already angry. As soon as the giant head was raised, it was bent like a bow, nearly ten zhang high, and the small boat was like a dead leaf in its eyes, and it was suddenly condescending, and countless black mist erupted from its large mouth like a basin and fell on everyone's heads!
Xu Xun and the others are naturally very powerful in this black poisonous mist, but they are afraid that if they get a little wet, their skin will turn into rotten bones in a moment. But seeing them, their faces were still very calm and unhurried!
"Evil animal! I thought you would flee from the wind, but I didn't expect it to be sent to the door! There is a way in heaven, you don't go, and there is no door to hell, you want to do it! Today, no matter what, I will take your life and eliminate harm for the people!" Guo Pu shouted out of thin air. The river breeze is gentle, with the corners of the silky clothes, and it looks even more handsome and chic.
The weapon in his hand is also very peculiar, it is a red and black feng shui compass, square on the outside and round on the inside, three inches long, and it happens to be in his hand. This feng shui compass seems to be very ordinary, but it is extremely magical, he used all his strength to blow on this compass, the red light on this compass gradually became larger, after a few breaths, the light has been tightly wrapped everyone on the boat and the entire boat.
As soon as the black mist touched the red light, it turned black and fell into the river along the circle of light.
This Xu Xun and Guo Pu are one main attacker, one main defense, and the cooperation is seamless, no wonder they are so confident, but they are calm in the face of such a huge python monster.
This black poisonous mist is the essence of this giant python's real name cultivated for hundreds of years, and it is its most powerful means of attack.
But this Xu Xun and the others no longer gave him a chance, and at this moment, Xu Xun had already jumped up, facing the giant python seven inches away, countless sword lights slashed away!
This giant python has already been psychic, so it naturally knows the power of the long sword in Xu Xun's hand, and it will dodge this countless sword qi when it moves to the right. But he didn't know that Xu Xun was a feint attack at all, and when the giant python discovered its purpose, it was already too late! I saw that the countless sword qi in the air had all fallen into the most vulnerable belly of the giant python with a sharp turn, leaving a bright red sword mark, and the entire lower body had been stained red with blood!
Although the wound was still insignificant, after all, it was another injury, and the python realized that it was afraid that it had encountered a strong enemy. At this time, he had already jumped like thunder and roared at everyone on the boat like crazy.
Immediately after that, another round of shooting began by everyone on the ship, and countless arrows also fell on the giant python. Although these attacks are difficult to break through the black scales on the giant python's body, because the distance is so close and the strength is so great, the giant python is in the air, unable to borrow its strength, and as soon as it spews out a mouthful of black mist, it is forced to fall into the water, causing countless wind waves.
As soon as he fell into the water, he saw the river rolling rapidly. It turned out that the giant python saw that the attack in front of it could not be attacked, so it changed to another attack. I saw that his body had turned into a huge iron rod at some point, stirring rapidly in the river water, and a huge whirlpool rose on the surface of the river. Coming straight to this white sailing ship, the living land is going to swallow this white sailing ship into this bottomless black hole with people and ships.
"It's not good, this beast's strength is not small! The old man's sword qi and those arrows did not have a quick effect on its damage for a while, if he sank this sailboat with brute force, Wu Meng and the others are only afraid that it will be more than lucky!" Xu Xun said to Guo Pu beside him.
"That's right! This beast can't make a plan, so he wants to pull us all into this water! Although my Heavenly Compass can protect this ship from the invasion of these evil and poisonous things, it can't protect it from the huge force in the water! I am afraid that it will take some time for the corpse poison of those arrows to attack! Now we can only try to stop this giant python and prevent this beast from destroying this boat!" Guo Pu replied to Xu Xun.
There are more than ten strong men on this ship, all of them have been in the past year. Disciples recruited in several southern states. It's not just that the heart of the Tao is very strong. This qualification is also unique in 10,000. After such a long period of cultivation, their physical fitness has improved significantly, and individual people with top qualifications have even successfully cleansed their marrow and stepped into the threshold of this cultivation realm. In particular, this bow and arrow technique has been cultivated to the point of piercing through the Yang in a hundred steps. It's just in the middle of this great river. Strong winds and waves. The water is fast. If you fall into the river, you will be like a blind man and a blind horse, and you will be in danger. Naturally, there is more luck than luck.
This is the first batch of disciples recruited by their Pure Ming Dao, and it is also the only batch of disciples so far, the foundation of the future development of the Pure Ming Dao, no matter what, this giant python must not be allowed to destroy this sailing ship! Guo Pu is naturally very clear about Xu Xun's thoughts.
Suddenly, a clear sound sounded, but he saw that the long sword in Xu Xun's hand had been unsheathed, and he jumped into the river without hesitation! Suddenly, a huge wave broke out on the surface of the river, and it was entangled with the giant python!
When the giant python saw that someone had fallen into the water, it was naturally very excited, and it gave up for a while to continue to turn over the river and the sea, and raised its bloody mouth and attacked Xu Xun! Suddenly, the surface of the river was like boiling water, and countless bubbles continued to erupt.
This Xu Xun's cultivation strength is comparable to that of this giant python, but this giant python occupies the geographical advantage of the water, and it has rough skin and rough meat. Although the giant python was caught off guard at once, and several arrows were hit on its huge body, it was only a flesh wound after all!
Therefore, this Xu Xun knew that with his own strength, he was afraid that he would not be able to subdue this giant python at all. Fortunately, he didn't have this intention, just to lure away this giant python, avoid its edge, and not fight with it, this giant python has nothing to do with that Xu Xun for a while.
Guo Pu saw that Xu Xun was not worried about his life for the time being, so he was relieved. Hurriedly instructed the people behind him, turned the bow of the boat, and retreated quickly!
Everyone worked together, shouted the trumpet, and the huge paddle waved non-stop, although it was thrilling, it still escaped the swallowing of the huge whirlpool!
On the boat, Guo Pu and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they saw that Xu Xun and the giant python not far away no longer knew how many rounds of fighting, from the river to the depths of the water, and from the depths of the water to the surface of the river, sweeping countless earth-shattering waves. Those fishermen in the distance even forgot to flee for their lives at this time, and all eyes were on the huge battle between this man and a python, waving their flags and shouting for their life-saving benefactor!
Guo Pu saw the battle between Xu Xun and the giant python, and he still couldn't tell the winner for a while, and on the surface it seemed to be on par, but Guo Pu was secretly worried about Xu Xun! Although this Xu Xun's cultivation was on par with this giant python, after all, this was in the water, and Xu Xun's cultivation was difficult to play, but this giant python was like a fish in water. Besides, the monk's endurance can't be compared to this monster at all, if this continues, this giant python will only fight more and more fiercely, and Xu Xun will fall into disadvantage sooner or later!
Fortunately, they are very experienced, and it is not the first time to kill monsters like giant pythons in this Yangtze River, from Peng Lize to Yunmengze in this Yangtze River, they have already removed these countless water spirits, and the cooperation between them is seamless, to ensure the safety of one party, but also to make the reputation of this pure and clear road has resounded in the three rivers and five lakes, countless Li people are grateful, and even want to set up a statue for them to incense! Moreover, there is a master hidden in this boat, even if this giant python has an accomplice, they are not afraid!
Therefore, this Guo Pu was not much frightened, and hurriedly sent all these Pure Ming Dao disciples on the boat to those nearby fishing boats. A moment later, this Guo Pu was already driving the boat into a white rainbow and speeding away on the water!
As the distance got closer and closer, Guo Pu could already see that there were already several more sword wounds on the python's body, and Xu Xun's body was already stained red with blood, I don't know if it was the blood on the python or his own blood.
This Xu Xun originally wanted to take this giant python around, just to provoke it, but he didn't fight with it, waiting for the corpse poison on his body to attack, and then it would be easy to clean it up.
But helplessly, the corpse poison on the giant python's body has not been effective for a long time, it may be that the giant python has a relatively high resistance to this corpse poison, or that the corpse poison has simply entered the blood of this monster. But no matter what, it can't be blindly dodged, after all, this giant python will eventually kill it! Xu Xun had to fight hard with the giant python. Suddenly, the sound of countless ping-pong sword strikes and falling water sounded, and countless blood splashed out, I don't know if it was the blood of Xu Xun or the blood of this giant python.
Seeing this, Guo Pu was very anxious, and jumped into the river without hesitation, and joined the battle......!
