Mountains and seas can be flat

On the way, they had to cross a huge river.Er Tongya said that this was the "Qingshui River", but Fang Zheng suspected it was the Yangtze River.Hearing "Lian Feng" talk about the uncanny landform, Fang Zheng guessed that it might be a certain section of the Three Gorges.The mountains and mountains on both sides of the strait point directly to Qingyun.

When they got to the riverside, the three little dogs turned around, their hooves were facing east, and they wanted to go east along the river.But Fang Zheng wanted to cross the river.Fang Zheng knew in his heart that King Xieyong told them to find another old Xieyong back then, but he didn't know if it was their father or grandfather.Fang Zheng gently patted their horns and persuaded: "The clues have passed for many years, who knows if they are still in the original place. Let's go north first, finish the matter, and then take you there." Xie Yao foolishly agreed.

Naturally, there are no ferries or boats by the river, but "Lian Feng" has sharp eyes and caught a child hiding not far away to spy on them.The kid was short and dark, with a round head, and he called himself a "fire-hating person". Fang Zheng thought, this is another race described in "Shan Hai Jing", rumored to be able to breathe fire, but now it seems like an exaggeration up.

"Then your tribe should be nearby? Can you borrow us a ship?"

Fang Zheng thought about finding a boat to go there. If "Lianfeng" was asked to recruit birds again, the three little Xiexiong had no claws to catch, so he could only hang them over like binding sheep. , He didn't want to do something that might get his skull smashed.

The fire-weary kid said: "Our tribe doesn't welcome outsiders, you will be roasted if you go in."

The corner of Fang Zheng’s mouth twitched. Fortunately, the kid didn’t have any scheming, otherwise he would make up a hospitable excuse to lure them in, and it would be a feast of human flesh. Fang Zheng asked, “Then do you know any other way to cross the river?”

The fire-weary child said: "Wood." He secretly looked at the three beautiful little dogs, his eyes glowed with longing, "People can carry the wood and leave the mount here, I will watch for you... ..."

"Lian Feng" bent his hand into a claw shape, gesturing to pinch the child's neck, but was blocked by Fang Zheng. Although the child's intentions were impure, he was innocent and innocent. You can also take advantage of this matter.

Fang Zheng pretended not to see through his intentions, and said with a smile: "Then you take us to find the wood first."

The fire-hungry kid thought they agreed, and quickly led the way, leading them through a rocky beach, a broken stone forest, and a spacious reed field, and they came to the front of a lush forest.

Fang Zheng couldn't see it, but judging from "Lianfeng" beside him and Er Tongya gasping for air, this forest was quite complicated.

Lian Feng told Fang Zheng in a low voice that at a glance, the woods were all high-quality wood as thick as two or three people hugging each other.There are hundreds of trees, forming an endless forest, and the leaves are also very strange, round like pearls.

The fire-weary child said like beans poured into a bamboo tube: "This kind of trunk is very light, and there is no problem floating on the water. The innermost layer is still empty. As long as you cut it down and cut it in half, it will be a natural boat. You don't have an axe, do you?" , as long as you trade unicorns for—”

In the dumbfounded expression of the annoyed child, Fang Zheng groped to the edge of a tree, took out a black Chonghua sword and slashed at the tree, the heavy giant tree fell to the ground, and Fang Zheng cut vegetables from the middle of the tree trunk. When it was cut open, it was perfectly divided into two halves like a cracked melon.

Fang Zheng could do it blindly, and the sharp Chonghua sword made the fire-hate kid tremble, his eyes kept aiming at the long sword, and it was about to bulge out.Suddenly, his eyes felt cold. It turned out that Zifeng's threatening gesture of "digging" with his fingers blocked his eyes at that moment, and his eyeballs were too protruding to accidentally touch them.Although it was fine, it scared the child to "wow" and cried.

"Is one enough to fit the three of us?" Fang Zheng fumbled to measure the length and width of the half-ladle wooden boat.

The second copper tooth said: "It's a bit crowded, and I can use both of them."

Fang Zheng signaled Ertongya and "Lianfeng" to carry a piece each, and transport the wood to the riverside.Fang Zheng turned his head and said to the shivering child who was tired of fire: "Okay, go back, and don't come out to do this kind of thing next time, adults can see how careful you are."

The fire-annoyed child suddenly summoned up his courage and said, "I didn't tell you the truth just now. There are monsters in Jiangxin who will eat you. Only people from our tribe know how to get there safely."

Fang Zheng was almost laughed out of anger again, did Ganqing just want to trick them into dying and occupy those mounts from the beginning?That being the case, if you say it now, aren't you afraid of being beaten?

"Why did you say that?" Fang Zheng could step over and pick him up out of thin air without looking, "What are you still thinking about?"

The annoyed child cried again in fright, probably because he was really inexperienced, and told the truth in fear: "It doesn't matter if you die, it's a pity that the three unicorns died..."

Fang Zheng threw the child up, and Zifeng, not far away, understood Fang Zheng's thoughts, caught the child and threw it into the river like a relay. The throw was not too far, it was not far from the shore, and it was not a rocky beach. The place.The child took a few sips of water and quickly swam back in fear. After a few steps, he swam up, sat on the bank and cried loudly.

"Brother Zheng, forget about drowning him." Zifeng said.

Fang Zheng stroked his chin and said, "Don't panic, the water in the river is unpredictable. There may be some evil beasts. Since his people are nearby, they should be familiar with the situation." Grabbing it with both feet, he commanded "Lian Feng" to hang him on the tree trunk next to him.

Fang Zheng said with a smile: "This is called 'watching children and treating others'."

During this period of time, Fang Zheng was not idle, and asked "Lian Feng" and Er Tongya to cut four pieces of wooden oars. The child was exhausted from crying, but Fang Zheng didn't let him go, and kept prodding: "Your clansman Why didn't you come to save you?" "Are you a wild child that no one wants?" "If they don't come at night, we will roast you." Then, in these threats, Tong Yanwuji gained A lot of information.

The fire-hating tribe this child belongs to is a tribe that retains the habit of cannibalism. They are good at fishing and hunting, and they come and go on the river all the year round.They live in caves or thatched huts by the river, or they live in settlements like the elders of the commune.This child is the child of their patriarch, but they don't follow any heir system, they choose their leader according to the brave power system.So this child ran around the mountains and rivers all day long.He was only about four or five years old, and the tribesmen were busy hunting and fishing, and sometimes they would come looking for him if they didn't see him back for a day or two.

After Fang Zheng finished listening, he deliberately said loudly: "Then let's set the fire to roast."

The child screamed and cried loudly.But Fang Zheng ignited the fire with a heart of stone, and asked "Lian Feng" to find a particularly long bamboo pole, as if trying to trick people.

The fire was burning, the smoke was rising high, and the children were crying loudly.But Fang Zheng waited for several hours, and the huge fire was almost burnt out, yet no one came.And the child even cried and fell asleep.Of course Fang Zheng wouldn't really roast him to eat, he just wanted to take the opportunity to attract his people to come, but for some reason, no one came.

"Then just cross the river." Fang Zheng saw that the oars were also ready.

"But the kid said..."

"If the situation is not right, we will return immediately. We can't wait here forever, let's play by ear." Fang Zheng said.Instruct Er Tongya to untie the rope for the child and place him under a stone sheltered from the wind.He will wake up soon.

Fang Zheng commanded everyone to put on the fish-skin clothes of the Jiuli tribe, lead Xie Qiang, and walk to the side of the boat. A boat cannot hold three people and three beasts, so they must be separated.It happens that a piece of wood is cut into two halves of the hull.

Fang Zheng couldn't see, so someone had to be behind him.Fang Zheng let Er Bronze Ya and the two little dogs sit in one; he, "Lian Feng" and the other small dog sat in the same room.Just enough to sit down.

The crude "wooden boat" dangled and floated on the river, it was really light and impermeable.Fang Zheng and the others drove away from the shore.Two Bronze Teeth The boat was ahead of them.

The Yangtze River was turbulent, and they struggled to paddle towards the opposite bank, and were washed downstream by the current for a certain distance.As you get closer to the center of the river, the current becomes more and more turbulent, and the waves roar and wet your clothes.Xiao Xie, who should be impervious to water, croaked uncomfortably on the boat.

Zifeng picked up Ye Xiao, listened quietly for a while, and said with a serious expression, "Brother Zheng, there is indeed something under the water."

Suddenly a big wave surged ahead, and a turbulent wall of water swept in. Fang Zheng was thrown all over his face, and the boat was almost capsized.The little dog almost fell into the river, scratching its hooves.

"No." Fang Zheng made a decisive decision, "Row back and find a rope to fix the scorpion, or it will fall down sooner or later."

Being kicked by Lao Xie is a matter of the future. The water is so fast that he still has to tie it to the boat, otherwise he will die before he leaves.It's not like human hands can grab the side of a ship.

Fang Zheng said to "Lian Feng", "You call Er Tongya to draw back."

Ertongya was not far in front of them just now, so they should still be able to hear the shouting.

Zifeng's eyes widened in surprise, "Brother Zheng, the other boat is missing."

Fang Zheng's heart sank, did the ship capsize and submerge?But in just a split second, the boat was not too far away. If it really capsized, they wouldn't be unaware.Fang Zheng tried his best to keep calm and said: "Pad back first, and shout while paddling, it may be that there is too much fog on the river, and the light cannot be refracted..."

Zifeng did as he said, and they paddled back to the shore. Just as they carried Xie Yao ashore, they were suddenly surrounded by a group of dark-skinned guys who sprang out from the shore.

Those people should be members of the Fire-Annoying tribe. Fang Zheng heard that the Fire-Annoying kid was being carried upside down by two of them, crackling and hitting his ass.As soon as Fang Zheng and the others climbed up, several harpoons shining with metallic luster pierced Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng dodged suddenly. Although he couldn't see it, it was not a problem to avoid the various attacks of these people by listening to the sound. He smelled the dry and dull blood on the metal harpoon.

Seeing Fang Zheng's movement, Zifeng didn't pretend to be stupid. He jumped to a high place and took out the dark red wooden bow behind his back - Dayi's bow and arrow.

In the movement of jumping high, Zifeng asked Fang Zheng loudly: "Live? Dead?"

Fang Zheng felt a kind of tacit understanding for no reason at that moment, just like the eye contact in the crocodile pool that time, even if he was blind this time, he could communicate quickly with simple words.Fang Zheng said: "Lead! Live!"

Zifeng glanced like lightning, and shot a wooden arrow. The material of the arrow was ordinary, but the bowstring was powerful. With a whoosh, the wooden arrow hit the blue feather on the head of a tall man who was picking up the child.Feathers scattered all over the place, but did not hurt him.Just nailed his hat to the trunk.

Zifeng jumped onto a nearby tree, ready to shoot the second arrow in his hand, and asked coldly, "Who?"

The arrow in his hand is like the teeth of a predator, it will shoot through the body of the prey in an instant without a single shot, everyone has the illusion of being threatened, and feels that if they are caught by his eyes, they will become the prey.

Fang Zheng said to the leader who was shot down: "Just now we made a lot of noise here, and the fire was very bright. You can't bear it all the time. Aren't you afraid that we will really roast that kid? I just Want to talk to you guys."

Those fire-hating people, in order to protect themselves, can even bear this kind of sacrifice?For a moment, Fang Zheng felt chills all over his body, and felt a little sympathetic to the child.

The facial muscles of the black-faced leader whose feathers were shot down twitched. They were dozens of times more numerous than Fang Zheng, but none of them wanted to be the victim of Zifeng's arrow. With a dry voice, he said, "There's nothing to talk about. It's his fault for running around. I know you're going to cross the river. But you can't. There is a water god in the river."

Fang Zhengdao: "The kid said, you know the way to get there safely."

The child's ass was flushed from the pump just now, and the black-faced leader's complexion became even darker, and he said viciously: "Then I will never tell outsiders!"

Before he finished speaking, Zifeng suddenly shot an arrow, without any warning, it pierced through the chest of the black-faced leader in an instant, and the opponent immediately swallowed his breath and fell to the ground dead.

Fang Zheng's palms suddenly soaked in sweat. Judging from the analysis of the situation, this is indeed the best and fastest solution.The coldness, ignorance, arbitrariness, and unreasonableness displayed by this black-faced leader make him unwilling to negotiate even if he is threatened, making it difficult to cooperate and persuade.What's more, they have to seize the time to find the two bronze teeth and two scorpions. If they drown, it will be a matter of life and death if they find out a minute later.

But Fang Zhengben still decided to swindle the strategy and try not to risk his life.

However, "Lian Feng" did not hesitate, and instantly took the life of the fire-hating leader.Next, no matter whether it is a fight, or the surrender, surrender or rout of those people, a new situation will be formed in a blink of an eye, allowing them to get out of trouble as soon as possible. The people who are tired of fire can't beat Fang Zheng and "Lian Feng". Can cross-examine in many ways and master the method of crossing the river.

Fang Zheng suddenly felt that "Lian Feng" was not only becoming more and more like a warrior, but also had an almost primitive, accurate, beast-like intuition and mobility in the decision of life and death. Zifeng who fought fiercely against the Great Azure Dragon...

Clearly he has done similar things before.Fang Zheng still couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, sighing and thinking, it is impossible to survive in such an era without hurting anyone.There is always sacrifice and blood.If you don't do it, you will die yourself.Withering and disappearing are so common, just like the autumn wind blows yellow leaves, and the snow often falls after the frost, it is helpless but natural.
