ten steps one kill

A group of people are suffering in despair.

Song Yungui said, "Jinze, go and remove the wooden sheath from the tip of the boat."

Jin Ze quickly understood, nodded in response, and ordered the boatman to unload the wood wrapped around the tip of the boat.

Between the two pieces of living wood, there is a section of steel blade, as high as a person, clinging to the keel, shining brightly in the dark night.

Originally, in water battles, Fuchuan would carry artillery on the side to deal with the enemy.But after all, the two lucky boats were under the banner of saving lives, and after all, they couldn't be too blatant, so he took the next best thing and hid the mystery on the tip of the boat.

In the past, before the advent of guns, people used the sharp blade on the tip of the ship to fight each other and compete for superiority.

This knowledge was taught to him by King Pingnan.

King Pingnan even promised him that he would hand over Nangong You to him when the great cause was accomplished.

To him, the relatives of the royal family are noble and unattainable people in the clouds, not to mention the habit of alienation is not tolerated by the worldly etiquette.There was originally an insurmountable moat between him and Prince Pingnan.However, as long as he spends tonight, he can no longer care about the jealousy of the world, and he can drag Nangongyou into the secular world as much as he wants, and take it as his own.

He couldn't wait for this moment to come.

The second ship once again filled its sails, suddenly accelerated, and headed towards the lead ship.

Nangongyou was standing beside him, holding the railing with both hands, biting his lips tightly, with a pained face, his thin body stood upright in the wind and rain, and his large clothes bulged along his shoulder blades, like a pair of weak wings.

He smiled, embraced the other person's shoulders, leaned on his shoulders, and wrapped his wings between his arms.

There was a burst of joy in his heart, and he even whispered: "From now on, you can only rely on me."

Nangongyou made a weak breath, as if sighing.

The small sound floated into the air, and soon disappeared.

However, the sharp blade that rides the wind and waves suddenly stopped halfway as if it was caught by the sound.

The unexpected encounter came too suddenly, and Song Yungui fell into confusion for a moment, not knowing what happened.

The hull under his feet seemed to be sewn together, stagnating in place, allowing the waves to swell, but he couldn't take another step forward, just bumped up and down needlessly.

Seeing that the steel blade was only an inch away, it wedged into the enemy's confidant.

However, it seems that there is a will of God in the dark, and the sky, which has never shown mercy to the world, stretches out its arms in the dark night and gently protects the crumbling blessing boat opposite.

Song Yungui stared at the unbelievable scene in front of him, as if he had lost his soul all of a sudden, he froze in place.

Until Jin Ze's voice called him back.

Jin Ze grabbed the railing of the ship's side, leaned down, and then exclaimed: "There are people! Why are there people in the water!!"

In front of his vision, there was an empty wooden barrel floating on the bottom of the second boat.A few figures huddled around the barrel, bumping and sinking in the sea water with the rhythm of the gust of wind.

The waves sometimes roll up and sometimes twist, causing the salty sea water to jump high and then fall heavily.The bubbling foam covered whirlpools large and small, into which flesh and blood fell, no stronger than a rag.

However, the people in the water seemed to be not afraid of death, shaking off their heads with splashes of water, and raised their heads high.

Jin Ze opened his eyes wide in astonishment, he had already noticed something strange, this group of people came prepared.One of them was holding the rope hook, and the slender claws happened to be hooked on the protruding beam on the side of the boat. The rope was taut in the water, so that the wooden barrel always moved against the hull of the boat, so that it would not be pushed away by the waves.But the rest of the people worked together to pull down the iron anchor hanging from the side of the ship.

The anchor was dropped, no wonder the ship was stuck in the water and no longer moved forward.

Seen from above, the winch that used to hang the anchor was already empty. Only a thick chain protruded from the center of the winch, fell straight into the sea, and was stretched straight under the pull of the current, like a sharp sword inserted into the depths of the sea. place.

The several-foot-long anchor chain stretched all the way to the root without reservation, and the hull was rattled by the iron cables, making a frightening friction sound.Presumably below the surface of the water, out of sight, the iron anchor has been stuck in the crevices of the rocks, allowing the undercurrent to rage, but stubbornly refusing to move forward.

Who are they, what kind of willpower do they have, they can withstand such a manic storm, beat their fists and feet in the fierce sea, and drag the pace of a huge monster with their mortal bodies.

Jin Ze was still in shock, but Li Butou, who was beside him, had recovered and ordered loudly: "Let the arrows! Let the arrows go!"

The rest of them woke up like a dream, whether they were officials or martial arts disciples, when they heard this order, they immediately raised the arrows at hand, no matter you or me, rushed to the ship's side, put their arms over the railing, and were about to draw their bows.

The arrow aimed at the low place from a high place, and it was easy to lock the target.People in the sea are like birds in a cage, even if they have wings, it is difficult to escape.

But they still raised their heads, instead of showing fear on their faces, there was excitement on the contrary.

Kanazawa soon understood why.

Before they could draw their bows, a sudden shower of arrows emerged from the darkness behind them.

The silver arrows tore through the night, like a surprise soldier from heaven, they hit the abdomen and back, and reversed the battle in an instant.

The people on the boat were completely unprepared, shot one after another, clutching their chests one by one, and fell down screaming.Even the wind direction is inadvertently helping, pushing the arrow to fly faster.

The Dongfeng Hall had no choice but to throw down their bows and arrows and lie on the ground to avoid the catastrophe that fell from the sky.

There was only one person left standing, and it was the eldest son Nangong You.As if he was not afraid of death, he let the flying silver light brush past his ears until Song Yungui pounced on him, pressed his shoulders, and forced him to squat down and hide in the protection of the mast.

He turned his head and asked, "Didn't you just say that the other party has been completely wiped out?"

Song Yungui said in a deep voice: "Their combat power is running out, they are just returning to the light, struggling to the death, and they can't make a difference."

Nangongyou shook his head: "Yes, I think there are many people hiding in the water."

Song Yungui showed surprise, and fixed his eyes on the bottom of the lead ship, only to see a figure floating near the bottom of the unsinkable ship.

These people had ropes tied to their arms, one tied the shoulders of the other, and surrounded the city with their flesh and blood, but they were not swept away by the wind and waves, but floated around the ship safely, breathing one after another.

Above their heads, several windows were opened one after another on the ship's side panel, and people kept handing out round things from the cabin. When they looked closely, they turned out to be wooden barrels filled with water, and the people floating outside the ship were He reached out to take it, and pushed the barrel into the vast sea.

These barrels were originally vacant in the cabin, and they were usually used to transport goods, but now they are filled with seawater, and the weight is astonishing. When they enter the water, large waves are created, and the sound is as loud as stones.

As the buckets were continuously thrown out, the big ship that was on the verge of sinking slowly floated up as if it had lost its fat, even more stable than the second ship.

The first ship that had regained freedom slowly approached the second ship.Borrowing the dim light of the sky, Song Yungui finally saw Zhang One-Eyed's face clearly.

There was no trace of panic on this man's face at all. In the rain that was flying all over the sky, he actually lit a numb cigarette, raised it to his lips, and sipped it intoxicated.

Song Yungui frowned and looked at him with an angry face.

He seemed to be aware of the gaze from the other side, and immediately raised his head, and said, "Teacher Song, you don't need to look for it, the flaw at the bottom of the boat was repaired before going out to sea."

Song Yungui couldn't believe his ears: "How do you know there is a hole in the bottom of the boat?"

Zhang Duyan sneered: "Teacher Song, didn't you promise to give us glory and wealth? There are many lies and back-and-forth, which doesn't seem like the righteous way of martial arts."

After hearing his words, Song Yungui's expression became more serious, and even his voice became extremely low: "You didn't obey my order, so don't expect me to save you."

Zhang Duyan raised the corner of his mouth: "Hmph, it's a good thing I didn't believe your nonsense, and it's a good thing I found someone more trustworthy than you."

Song Yungui couldn't help being stunned, his eyes searched around, and finally found that behind Zhang Duyan, apart from a few Dongfeng hall masters, there was another person dressed as a boatman standing.

The man was wearing a boatman's coarse clothes, most of his body was wet from the wind and rain, and his hair was covered with sweat and sea water, sticking to his forehead.

Although he was described as embarrassed, his brows and eyes showed an indescribable spirit.

Jin Ze also panicked, pointed at the man and exclaimed, "Why is he still alive? I did kill him last night..."

Halfway through, I realized my slip of the tongue.

It was too late, the man's eyes had already crossed the darkness and fell on his face.There seemed to be flames burning in the black eyes, as if they were going to burn him to ashes.

That person was actually Duan Changya.

The person who should have died in the sea of ​​fire the night before was standing on the opposite ship safely at this moment.

If it wasn't for Leng Yu still patting his cheeks, Jin Ze would have thought he was dreaming.

Unsurprisingly, there were also whispers in the Dongfengtang team. Many of them were former Tianjimen disciples who had some feelings for Duan. They just heard that Duan Changya abandoned his former companions and abandoned the sect. Fleeing, turning his back on the martial arts, it is hard to return, but he doesn't know the truth about him being hunted down by Song Yungui.

As if to relieve their doubts, Duan Changya said: "You want to kill me and force me into a valley in the mountains, but there is a water source at the bottom of the valley, it seems that God will not let me die."

These words were like a slap in the face, slapping Dongfengtang hard in the face.

Duan Changya is taciturn and does not fight with the world, but it does not mean that he will swallow his anger, abandon the dignity of a warrior, and condone the evil deeds of heretics.

In those calm eyes, there was also a trace of hearty pleasure.

Jin Ze was startled, and turned his gaze to Song Yungui, only to find that the always calm and gloomy hall master had a strange look on his face, with surprise and jealousy written all over his face.

When did he infiltrate the ship, when did he collude with Zhang Duyan, and how did he perform to deceive everyone's eyes.

Song Yungui had no time to pursue it, he just frowned and said, "It doesn't matter even if you join forces to act, do you think you can really escape?"

Before Duan Changya could speak, Zhang Duyan couldn't hold back anymore, and cursed: "You heartless bastard, even if I die at sea today, I will drag you to be buried with me."

Song Yungui shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, I don't plan to be buried with you."

Behind him, Kanazawa actually lifted a long and narrow cannon barrel and carried it on his shoulder.

The cannon barrel was made of poured brass, its caliber was as thick as a forearm, and its length was as long as a ten-year-old child's body.

Even Li Butou was shocked: "What are your plans? Hiding such a dangerous thing on board."

Song Yungui just smiled coldly, and said: "If you want to achieve unprecedented great things, you must not be afraid of danger."

The martial arts people on the first boat also saw his trump card clearly, and Zhang Duyan's voice changed, and he shouted: "Stop him quickly! Don't let him succeed!"

Everyone drew their bowstrings again, however, the enemy was no longer as flustered as before. Dongfengtang is best at forming formations. Immediately, dozens of people rushed forward, lifted the heavy objects at hand, and formed a shield Formation, to protect the gunner tightly.and.Hee.彖.right.read.Chia.

The two behemoths faced each other in the vast and empty sea, and the gunners did not immediately aim at the opposite deck, but walked to the side of the ship.He was very aware of the enemy's weakness, and aimed his black bore at the wooden barrel floating near the bottom of the ship without hesitation.

There was a flash of fire, and in a blink of an eye, the first shell broke through the bore and fell to the sea.

The people submerged in the sea still raised their heads, and still had no intention of avoiding it. However, how could they resist the heavy weapons of attacking the city with their bare hands.

With a loud bang, a thick puff of smoke rose from the surface of the water.The iron hook that had been attached to the protruding beam just now was also torn apart, and half of the rope was attached to the end, and it fell down.

After the smoke dissipated, the people in the sea disappeared without a trace. They were swept away by the big waves before they even had time to exclaim in surprise, and disappeared silently in the darkness.

Song Yungui looked at the remaining gunpowder smoke on the water, and spit out four words from the back of his throat: "The courage of a reckless man."

Zhang Duyan was also stunned, his eyes searched desperately, trying to find the trace of his companion, but in the end he returned without success.

There are five righteous men who volunteered to go deep into the enemy's line, and they are the first batch of victims today.

Prior to this, the so-called seizing the ship was just a play on the spot, and the martial arts people who were thrown into the water by him were immediately rescued, further cooperating with his plan, waiting for the opportunity, and even the red blood that appeared in the water was nothing more than piercing the belly of a fish. illusion.

But the sacrifice in front of him is real. Under heavy artillery fire, no one can save the defeat. Five fresh lives disappeared in an instant. Looking around, there are only a few ragged clothes in the white foam The ups and downs, mixed with the fragments of the wooden barrel, are like a group of meteorites across the night sky, and like a handful of fire falling into a mountain stream.

The mottled traces like dirt are the last light of the lost life left in the world.

A ray of afterglow ignited a prairie fire.

The people on the boat, the people in the sea, shouted from all directions: "Kill this son of a bitch! At worst, we die together! Death must be revenged!"

The vulgar shouts were mixed with the sound of wind and rain, like an invisible light piercing through the thick and stagnant clouds.

The night is still long, and the storm is still violent and violent, but something is released from people's chests, bursting out with passionate power.

"Kill Song Yungui! Destroy Dongfengtang! Take back our martial arts!"

The lead boat was full of sails, and with the help of the wind, it rammed straight into the second ship. Although there was a ten-meter-high sharp blade erected on the tip of the ship, the speed of the lead ship did not slow down by half.

The tips of the two giants collided together, causing a huge splash. During the violent ups and downs, the hull of the lead ship was almost torn in two, but the people on board jumped to the opposite deck like moths to a flame. .

Song Yungui never dreamed that these three religions and nine streams, people who are greedy for life and fear of death, can be united together.The suspicion and betrayal, estrangement and enmity between them seemed to be filled overnight, and they put their lives on the line for a burst of spirit.

He ordered loudly: "Stop these lunatics! Don't let them come over!"

The cannon barrel in Jinze's hand was already hot and red, burning holes in the cloth on his shoulders, and a layer of blood bubbles appeared on his palms. Even so, he still didn't dare to put down the weapon in his hand.

The artillery roared and landed at the feet of the Wulin people, exploding one after another.

The towering mast swayed and fell, like a giant that died unfortunately, and its huge body crashed into the sea.The wooden deck was also smashed, and debris flew everywhere.The unsuspecting people were thrown high like ears of rice, and then fell heavily, flying with broken hands and feet, and blood foam fell like rain.

In a blink of an eye, countless martial arts people were killed and injured, and the empty sea turned into a hell on earth.

Duan Changya opened his eyes wide, looking at the world ignited by artillery fire in front of him, he almost rushed into the crowd, but a hand firmly pulled his arm, imprisoning him in place.

It was Liu Hongfeng's hand.

Standing on the crumbling deck, Liu Hongfeng looked at the crowd who were following one after another, and said, "Let them stop, so stubborn, what's the difference from sending them to death?"

Duan Changya said: "If it were me, I would not stop. Life is important, but there are some things in the world, even if you risk your life, you have to do it."

Liu Hongfeng looked at him: "Do you want to go too?"

Duan Changya nodded: "I think so."

Liu Hongfeng squeezed his shoulders tightly: "Anyone can die, but you can't, you have to live."

Duan Changya turned to Liu Hongfeng, with a complicated expression in his eyes: "I was born to bear the sins of my ancestors. In order to keep my life alone, many innocent people died with shame, but my life is not that expensive, let alone worth it. It would be better for me to die than to live on in exchange for someone else."

After saying these words, he tightened his lips. Although he tried his best to suppress his emotions, every slight movement on his face was full of pain.

Proud as Duan Changya, it is really difficult to say such a thing, if not at the moment of life and death, he might never choose to confess.

His life seemed to be a road tied in a dead knot, with no exit in any direction.But he refused to bow his head, and still dragged his tired feet for a long time.

However, no one can endure a journey with no end in sight forever.

As if trying to avoid himself, he turned his head slightly and turned his gaze to the crowd not far away.

But Liu Hongfeng pulled up his collar involuntarily, forcing him to look away.

"You have a good idea. Since you have already committed a crime, don't think that you can die easily. There is no such cheap thing in the world." A hand pressed on his chest, and his fingers pressed the seal hidden in his arms: "Don't forget that you still have it, and you still have to use it to deal with Song Yungui."

Duan Changya was silent for a moment, and said: "Our ship is about to sink. If we want to deal with Song Yungui, the best result is to die together."

Liu Hongfeng still shook his head: "No, you can't die, even if the boat sinks, you still have to use your hands and feet to swim to the other side."

Duan Changya frowned and said: "I'm not a fish, how did you swim to the other side? You are obviously in a difficult position."

Liu Hongfeng raised the corners of his mouth and slowly revealed a wry smile: "Of course I understand that it is not so easy to survive."

Duan Changya said: "Compared to dying, living is much more troublesome."

Liu Hongfeng said: "It's a pity that I want to cause trouble for you. Whether you want revenge or atonement, you have to keep this life. Even if I die, you can't die."

Duan Changya couldn't help being startled.

Only at the moment of life and death can he hear a truth from a mouth full of lies.

Only such a truth can wake up his mind, ignite his heart, and reveal a new fire from the cold embers.

Duan Changya turned around abruptly, and grabbed Liu Hongfeng's shoulder: "You want me to live, can you throw life and death lightly?"

Words filled his throat, and before he could speak, Duan Changya felt that his feet were empty, his body was thrown up by the violent impact, lost his support, and then fell quickly into the darkness.

The impact came from another ship. After a fierce battle just now, the anchor lock on the second ship was finally broken, and the behemoth that was freed was lifted by the waves, roaring and crashing into another of its kind.

Using the steel knife as a wedge, the second ship finally split the first ship in half.

Those who were too late to board the opposite deck slid down along with the overturned planks.

Duan Changya was also among them, he grabbed the nearest mast with one hand, and firmly grasped Liu Hongfeng's collar with the other hand.After a whirl, he plopped into the water.The cold water stung his marrow and froze his hands and feet.All the muscles and bones in his body were twitching, his limbs seemed to be out of his control, and he was struggling in a disorderly manner.

It was the sound of exclamation, howling, and the sound of beating desperately after drowning.In the chaos, he forced himself to stay awake, stretched his aching arms, and finally grabbed a rough rope.

It was a sail line, hanging from the top of the mast.After the mast fell into the water, it quickly floated horizontally and turned into a driftwood.He pulled the rope in his hand hard, grabbed the mast with his strength, and finally found a support, avoiding the danger of being swept away by the big waves.He took a deep breath, turned his head to check Liu Hongfeng's condition: "Are you okay?"

Pulled by him, Liu Hongfeng also grabbed onto the driftwood with one hand, and emerged from the water.

Their eyes met, and before they could speak, Liu Hongfeng suddenly opened his eyes wide, raised his jaw, and looked at the darkness above his head.

Duan Changya was also taken aback for a moment, then immediately turned around.Between lightning and flint, several cold arrows fell head-on, and the silver edge suddenly magnified in the field of vision.

The next moment, he felt his shoulders sinking, and Liu Hongfeng pressed the back of his neck, climbed up his back, and covered him with half of his body.

He was bent down, half of his face was submerged in the sea water, but he still heard the dull sound of arrow clusters piercing the wood.

At the same time, Liu Hongfeng pulled a piece of driftwood from nearby, lifted it over the water, propped it up with the arrow tail, and just blocked the diagonally above the two of them, forming a shield.

After confirming that he was out of danger for the time being, Liu Hongfeng let out a long sigh, took off his strength, and moved away from him.His eyes were still narrowed into two lines, and he looked as if he was still in shock.

But Duan Changya grabbed his shoulder: "Why did you stand in front of me! If the arrow cluster just missed by an inch, you will die."

Liu Hongfeng's eyes fell on his face: "I protect you with good intentions, but you want to blame me, why are you so unreasonable?"

Duan Changya's eyes lit up sullenly: "Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? You let me live, but you want to die, just to relax. Do you think I can't see it?"

A flash of panic flashed in Liu Hongfeng's eyes. He stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked his pale lips, but wrinkled his nose because of the salty sea water: "Master Duan is really perceptive, what he said is absolutely right."

The shelter propped up by the broken boards was only an inch, and the foreheads of the two were stuck together, and the water droplets slid down the gap between the foreheads, blurring the sight of the two and blurring the distance between the two.

They seemed to have become two different people. Liu Hongfeng lowered his head and dodged his gaze, while Duan Changya chased after him. He held Liu Hongfeng's cheek and forced him to raise his head. His attitude was unprecedentedly stubborn: "You want Die alone, free from all troubles, stay out of it, eh?"

Liu Hongfeng was silent.

Duan Changya tightened his fingers: "You made up an excuse of amnesia and tried to get me out of it. Do you really think I can't guess it?"

After a while of silence, Liu Hongfeng said in a hoarse voice: "Didn't I succeed in prevarication?"

Duan Changya immediately interrupted him: "That's it, you don't want to repeat the old tricks. Since I saved your life, I won't let you die again."

Liu Hongfeng lowered his head, half of his body was submerged in the water, his cheeks were wrinkled, and even his heart was wrinkled together. He stared at the white foam and water plants in his hand, and said, "It's a pity that you don't know, I'm going to die soon." gone."

Duan Changya's voice rang close to his ears: "I know, you said it when you were half awake last night."

Liu Hongfeng couldn't help being taken aback, and raised her head abruptly, the water splashed on the other's cheek, leaving behind a string of sparkling marks.

"Since you know everything, you still want to force me? How bad is your mind?"

Duan Changya didn't dodge, just stared at him, and said word by word: "You are my enemy, I will not let you go, even if you want to go to the king of hell, you have to pass my test first."

Liu Hongfeng blinked, and was silent for a long time before opening his mouth: "Duan Changya, when did you learn the skill of rhetoric?"

Duan Changya replied: "The one who is close to the ink is black."

The four eyes met, and the two pairs of pupils flickered in the darkness. The grievance between them suddenly became less important.Even the mask that had been on his face seemed to be washed away by the sea.

The surrounding fields are vast, and the darkness is like an impenetrable curtain, covering the whole world. The two seem to have returned to the rainy night when they first met, and walked together a long and muddy road amidst the endless sound of water.

They are all people who are used to loneliness, but on that miraculous night, they all thought that it was so exciting to have someone walking by their side.

Unfortunately, they can no longer start over.

Even though their martial arts are superb and their wills are as hard as iron, they are just mere mayflies in front of the vast world, struggling hard and mediocre to survive.

No matter how many rhetoric they have in their hearts, they also realize in their hearts how hard it is to survive this catastrophe.

If there is a way in the sky, how can it design such a tricky good fortune.

Liu Hongfeng stared into Duan Changya's eyes, and said: "If you and I had never had an enmity, if we had joined forces earlier, we would definitely become an invincible couple in the world, and it's not up to the traitor to make trouble."

Duan Changya also stared at him, he couldn't utter any sweet words anymore, he just slowly let go of the wrinkles between his brows, stretched the corners of his mouth, and revealed a faint smile.

The enmity accumulated ten years ago has finally disappeared in this smile.

At this moment, at the last moment of their lives, their thoughts finally fell into one place.

It's a pity that the sudden flash of inspiration can't dispel the darkness in front of us.

Even a smile alone can't resist the bone-chilling cold.

After the head boat capsized, the sea was a scene of withering and dilapidation. The broken hull was shattered into large and small pieces of wood, wedged in the waves, lumpy, like a layer of gray-brown skin ringworm, and occasionally someone's corpse floated among the wood pieces. , was washed by the sea, his clothes blocked the way, his face was blurred, and his identity could not be distinguished at all.

Just before falling into the water, Duan Changya and Liu Hongfeng were lucky enough to grab the sail rope and rely on the protection of the mast to escape the repeated pursuit of the wind, waves and rain of arrows, but the others were not as lucky as them.Some were swept into the sea by big waves the moment they fell into the water, and never emerged again. Some managed to hold on to driftwood, but were killed by iron clusters falling from the sky.

Mottled bright red floated in the water, the color of fresh blood.

Liu Hongfeng raised his eyes and looked around, trying to search for survivors with the help of the dim skylight. However, there was only the breath of death around him. He floated in the silence, and the temperature on his body gradually disappeared.

The sea is ruthless, and it is still turbulent and turbulent. There is only one surviving Fu boat. The waves beat on the edge of the boat, and soon bounced back with greater force, pushing the wreckage in the water to all directions .

Seeing the piece of wood in his hand drifting farther and farther, Duan Changya said: "If we want to survive, we have to cling to that ship, just like before going out to sea."

Liu Hongfeng said: "It's easy for you to say, there is no place to focus, how can you climb up?"

Duan Changya looked around, picked up an arrow cluster from the water, and pulled a piece of sail rope from the top of the mast, tied the two together, and threw them with all his strength towards the hull several meters away.

The palm with all its strength was like a fully drawn bowstring, and the arrows were sent out straight, piercing into the gaps in the wood chips.Duan Changya then tightened the sail rope and moved forward together with the mast.

The two of them went against the direction of the waves and had to work hard for every inch they moved.However, when walking halfway, the sail rope suddenly loosened, slipped from the feather arrow, and the rope head lost its support and fell into the water.

The knots tied by the hands were not strong enough after all, and the little distance that was finally regained was quickly refilled by the waves.

Duan Changya was frowning when he saw a silver light flashing around him, and Liu Hongfeng also picked up a feathered arrow, imitating his actions.

"I'm with you."

The two of them took turns alternately, using extremely stupid methods, relying on the strength of both hands to move their bodies, approaching the target inch by inch.

After countless repeated setbacks, they finally saw the wood grain on the ship's side clearly.

However, an even more shocking picture also jumped into Liu Hongfeng's field of vision.

The porthole on one side of the ship was half-open, and a fire glowed faintly.

In the dim light of the fire, he actually saw a familiar face leaning half out of the window, waving to him.

He panicked immediately, and hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't move, don't come down!"

However, the other party didn't hear his warning, the thin body squeezed out of the window, and plunged into the water like a fish.

A string of waves splashed on the water.

Liu Hongfeng swam over in a hurry, picked up the kid's shoulder, and angrily said: "Are you dying? You don't want to ride on a good boat, but you jump into the sea by yourself. There is no such fool as you in the world."

"I'm not here to find you." The kid wiped his face and made a noisy voice.

Although the voice was choked with water vapor and vague, it still sounded very familiar.Even with his eyes closed, Liu Hongfeng could still see clearly across a street.

However, the familiar voice sounded at an unexpected moment, instead of bringing comfort, it ignited an unknown fire in his heart.

He stared at Liu Qian who was soaking in the water: "Why do you want to find me, can't you get seasick by yourself?"

"Of course it's to help you!" Liu Qian stretched out his hand from the water, holding a piece of iron chain in his hand.

When he fell into the water just now, he actually fished out half of the anchor chain from the water.The anchor head was probably struggling and broke off on the bottom of the sea, leaving only a solitary iron cable.The other end of the iron cable was embedded on the side of the ship, which was much more stable than the sail ropes and arrow clusters thrown by the two out of thin air.

Duan Changya took the anchor chain and tied it to the end of the driftwood.

Seeing the floating mast stabilizing in the water, Liu Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief and let go of all the strength in his body.

After all, he was just a kid, clinging to the board in the big waves, his thin body was floating up and down like a straw, his wet hair stuck to his face, the base of his nose was wrinkled, his lips were twitching because of the cold, and he looked like a ghost. She looked so pitiful.

Liu Hongfeng's heart softened, and she stretched out her hand to pull him in front of her, saying: "It's enough for you to save your own life, there's no need to worry about others."

Liu Qian was not polite. As soon as he got close to Liu Hongfeng, he stretched out his fist and slammed on the other person's shoulder: "Why did you run away without saying a word? Do you think I'm a burden? I did you a big favor." ! If I hadn't sent the letter, would you have been able to fool the old fox surnamed Song?"

Facing the barrage of questions, Liu Hongfeng was speechless for a moment.

But Duan Changya said calmly from the side: "If he hadn't sneaked into the lowest cabin to hide from you, he wouldn't have found that the bottom of the boat had been tampered with, so it might not be a bad thing for him to hide from you."

Liu Qian looked at Duan Changya, then turned his eyes back to Liu Hongfeng's face, narrowing his eyes into two slits: "Oh? So you still want to hide from me? You want me to help you so much, but you don't even see me No, just leave me a note. Do you know how much effort it took me to sneak into another ship? You... you are a poor-hearted fellow."

Liu Hongfeng frowned when he heard it: "Children should not imitate adults. Do you understand what it means to be unkind?"

Liu Qian retorted: "Why is this difficult to understand? Every now and then someone will point at your nose and call you heartless, how can I not understand?"

Liu Hongfeng: "..."

Although soaked in cold water, his cheeks were faintly hot, and his face turned white and green. He couldn't help but turned his head and looked at Duan Changya, who was also looking at him, and said with emotion: "Your past life was really terrible. Bad spots."

Liu Hongfeng was startled, and immediately argued: "Do you believe what children say?"

Duan Changya nodded: "No one is more trustworthy than children."

Liu Qian's gaze was lingering between the two, but when she heard Duan Changya speak for her, she immediately raised her head and said in agreement: "I'm right! It's all his fault, you should ask him to make amends!"

Duan Changya nodded without hesitation, then turned to Liu Hongfeng, and said, "You can accompany Xiaoqian, right?"

Liu Hongfeng: "..."

He never imagined that in such a hopeless and gloomy situation, the two people in front of him would form such a strange alliance.

Two pairs of dark eyes looked at him together.

Liu Hongfeng couldn't help thinking, could it be that the two people in front of him were two hurdles in his life that he couldn't get over.

Yielding to the two scorching gazes, he could only lower his head and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Liu Qian raised her eyebrows high: "My lord has a lot, so I don't care about it with you."

Liu Hongfeng couldn't laugh or cry: "Did I offend you in my previous life?"

Liu Qian blinked, but didn't make a sound.But Duan Changya said: "I don't believe that people really have a previous life. As long as I live this life well, I will have no regrets in my heart."

Probably because Duan Changya's tone was too heavy, the two people around him also fell silent one after another.

The three of them hid under the shelter of the hull and temporarily stayed away from danger, but the noise on the deck kept pouring into their ears.

The fierce battle for the ship continued.The martial arts people who lost their shelter put all their hopes in front of them, and fought desperately one after another.

Their opponents were not simple either, half of them were disciples of Dongfeng Hall, and half of them were court officials. They formed an impenetrable sword array, blocking them like a wall of iron.

Not only is the opponent's martial arts better, but even the weapons are more neat.In contrast, the martial arts attack
