Prologue: The Chase

Next Chapter

Wind and rain are blowing, thick smoke fills the cold waters, and from time to time there are splashes on the reef, and seagulls let out a terrible cry, flapping their wings and flying into the dead sea.

There was a slight sliding sound, and a flat boat broke through the waves, splashing the water.

A young man in blue held an oar in his hand, frowning and looking into the distance, and in the cabin of the boat, a young woman in red held a baby in her arms and a two-year-old child in her right hand, looking nervously at the back of the young man in blue.

The blue-clothed young man carried his left hand on his back, and his right hand slid the oars unhurriedly, and strangely enough, it was this slow sliding speed that made the whole boat as fast as an arrow.

Not long after the boat sailed into this sea, there was a sudden commotion from the direction where they came, and within a few moments, heavy ships suddenly emerged from the thick fog.

On these ships stood a soldier in armor with a bow and arrow, and on the boat in the center, there was a man in a red robe, this man was wearing a suit of armor, looking coldly at the leaf boat in the distance, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Mercury Xing, even if you are super cultivated and can take the head of the enemy general among the ten thousand troops, so what? I will order the flag, ten thousand arrows will be fired together, and you will be killed in an instant, hmph, do you think that it is still the era of your master Wuzun?"

The man called Cheng Wu sneered, stared at the leaf boat, secretly calculated the distance between the two sides in his heart, and said solemnly: "Order the flag bearer, order the surrounding ships, pull up the main sail, wait until it enters the firing range, attack immediately, whether dead or alive!"

The flag-bearer responded with a sound of peace, quickly waved the flag, and gave orders to the ships around him. In a matter of moments, more than a dozen mainsails were raised, and for a moment, the speed of these ships was more than doubled, and they rushed towards the leaf boat like a giant whale.

Strange to say, at this moment, the distance between the two of them was at least more than a hundred zhang, but the young man in blue seemed to be able to see the order from the standard-bearer, his eyes showed a cold color, and he snorted softly.

He threw out the oars casually, spun with one hand, and a wave of energy gushed out of his body, turning out of thin air a Taiji diagram-like thing, he pushed it one by one, and the entire Taiji diagram sinked and expanded suddenly, and the two air flows of yin and yang, and suddenly the speed of the entire Ye Zhou soared, originally there were only three arrows between the two sides, but at this moment it quickly grew into a distance of six arrows.

Cheng Wu was stunned when he saw this, and said hatefully: "Wuzun's Chaos Eight Style? Hmph, so what?" The adjutant on the side was startled and persuaded: "General Cheng, we have an agreement with Donghai Fort that we are not allowed to fire artillery here." ”

"Are you the main general, or am I the main general?" Cheng Wu's face sank, and he said sharply, "Don't talk nonsense, at this moment on the sea, even if Mercury Xingxing is superb, it is useless, if you let Mercury Xing go, I don't know how many officials will be assassinated by him, will you bear this responsibility?"

"Yes, the last general knows his mistake...... The adjutant was slightly startled, did not dare to say more, and hurriedly ordered the standard-bearer to give the order, ordering the ships to set up their guns and prepare for the attack.

As if sensing the breath of the artillery, the blue-clothed young man suddenly turned his head and frowned: "Artillery? Hmph, these bastards probably forgot who invented this artillery." ”

The woman in red said anxiously: "Xingxing, what should I do, they are about to chase after me!" The young man in blue smiled faintly: "It's okay, if there are a thousand rounds of artillery arrows, I, Mercury Xingxing, will be afraid, but at the moment, there are only a dozen rounds, it's just useless." ”

"Uncle Shui, let's go quickly, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case!" the child said suddenly.

The child looked like he was only one or two years old, but there was a faint hint of calmness between his eyebrows, and even a kind of bearing that was in charge of the universe and the pearl of wisdom was in hand.

Mercury Xing smiled indifferently when he heard this, his hands were closed, his energy flowed, and he took the entire Ye Boat to accelerate abruptly, and in a moment, he was already far away from those official ships and sailed into the distance.

"Damn, let them run away...... Cheng Wu secretly gritted his teeth, pulled out his saber suddenly, slashed at the flag pillar on the side, and said hatefully, "Bastard! As soon as this thief runs, there will be no more peaceful days in the world......
