The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 576: Three Battles with Water People

When Zhao Changhe arrived at the outskirts of Tianya Island, he was a little more adaptable than Xia Chi.

He has been pondering the art of water mirror all the way, which is playing with light, not to mention that he has been playing the spring water sword art for two years.

When he first saw the island, Zhao Changhe could already see through the dense water vapor and light the location of the real island inside, and he could also see that the island was not as big as it looked from the outside.

There is only one thing that is more distinctive. The sun has set and the moon has risen, but there is still the colorful bridge in the sky, like a scene painted in the sky.

“Then there is a problem with Hongqiao...” Zhao Changhe looked at Hongqiao from a distance and asked Sanniang next to him in a low voice: “Does it sound like you are saying that you can reach the sky by stepping on the bridge?”

Sanniang said: "From the perspective of light refraction, if you step on the island, looking from the outside, it is like stepping on the Hongqiao. It also has symbolic meaning. Stepping on it means entering the end of the world."

 Is the end of the world far away?

 Not far.

People are at the end of the world, so how can the end of the world be so far away?

Zhao Changhe could not help but have thoughts of literary youth in his heart, and then he heard Sanniang say: "It's really strange here... The connection between the meaning of Qinglong and water is not very big. Earlier, we used the meaning of water to produce wood, and the meaning of Qinglong. The concept of orientation in the east allowed Chi Chi to get some insights after going to the sea once. In fact, the meaning of the blue dragon should never be found in the water...but here it gave me an extremely strong feeling."

Zhao Changhe also felt strange, not because of this, but because he felt that most of the relics related to Qinglong should have been excavated. The fake tomb of Qinglong was excavated by Chi Chi's mother, and the ground was dug three feet; the Qinglong Seal of the Water Curtain Cave in the back mountain was obtained by himself and Chi Chi; the altar mechanism under the Qinglong Seal was cracked by himself and Sanniang, and the secret of rejuvenation was obtained there Yes, even the coffin was moved away. According to Sanniang, the coffin was indeed the body of Qinglong.

These are all already bald, okay? Why is there still something related to Qinglong here? How come there are so many...

Sanniang looked up at the sky and saw the blue dragon star twinkling faintly in the east: "I'm afraid it means the star, not the ancient green dragon."

Zhao Changhe nodded. If you want to say where the meaning of the ancient blue dragon came from, it obviously came from the stars and did not appear out of nowhere. If what we get here is the meaning of the stars, it means we have come into contact with the origin of this direction.

 No wonder Xia Longyuan asked his daughter to come here to seek a breakthrough. This was indeed a great opportunity for Chi Chi to get a glimpse of the triple secrets in a short period of time.

The premise is that she has to be embarrassed. It’s useless to ask primary school students to read the papers of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in advance...

 While the two were discussing, Tang En was letting the ship continue to move forward, approaching the range of light distortion.

Zhao Changhe originally planned to ask Tang En to stop for a while, observe slowly, and even ask the fishing boats nearby. However, the closer he got, the more he noticed that there seemed to be movement on the island.

A white dress flies under the moon, stepping on the treetops, as beautiful as an elf.

 Zhao Changhe couldn't take his eyes away from the sight.

 Chichi... Every time we meet again, we can give people a new and amazing feeling, and this time, what I feel is loneliness and determination.

　　If people are at the end of the world, how can the end of the world be so far away?

Sanniang looked at him sideways, feeling sour in her stomach. She didn't know how to get jealous.

No matter how late Chi Chi was in other matters, she was the indisputable first to know and fall in love with him... For a long time, this stinky pig's girlfriend was Chi Chi, until now when she looks at him Those eyes were still as gentle as seeing first love. No wonder Suzaku got angry when he saw the delay, and couldn't argue, so he could only bully her to comfort the mistress's heart...

Sanniang sighed: "You..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhao Changhe suddenly jumped up: "Fuck! Chichi is not exploring the secret, he is being hunted! What kind of **** dares to kill me Chichi!"

Sanniang: “…”

 “Twain! Bed crossbow!”

“…Your Highness, we can’t see anything.”

“You don’t need to see it, just shoot in that direction!”

Sanniang frowned slightly. Her cultivation was much better than that of Zhao Changhe. She was keenly aware of all kinds of malicious and strong auras around her, but she couldn't distinguish them carefully...I always felt that rushing in like this was not the best option. It's really strange that Chi Chi, who has always been cautious, ended up in such an extremely unfavorable situation of fighting alone...

 But it was impossible for her to stop Zhao Changhe's rescue. The reason for her going to sea was to delay. Theoretically speaking, you have to protect Chi Chi even if you risk your own life.

Tang En directed the crew to set up the crossbow, but he couldn't calibrate it, so he fired a shot very blindly in the direction indicated by Zhao Changhe.

There was a "taut" sound, the ballista was fired, and Zhao Changhe disappeared. Tang En: "?"

Sanniang shook her head: "He went out with a crossbow. You should be careful out there. It's best to hide in a safe place... This battle is very risky."

Before she finished speaking, she disappeared.

 Twain: “…”

　　No, who is this mistress who has been pressed in the cabin for several days? Normally she looks as lazy as a turtle, but when it comes to seriousness, she's so fast that she can't even be found... She seems to be stronger than the first one!

 …

The direction of Tang En's crossbow was slightly adjusted by Zhao Changhe, who was stepping on it. When it really entered the battlefield, it accurately penetrated the head of the fish-man leader. Zhao Changhe did not stop for a moment, directly raised his sword and leaped forward, directly attacking the man in the middle of the lake. .

After so many battles at sea, he knew very well that wherever the sea people gathered, the water-man structure was the absolute core. Although it could be regarded as autonomous, the King of the Sea could see anything he wanted to see through it, and even through it If you take action, just look for this thing and beat it directly.

This is a structural life with triple secret strength, but after these battles, Zhao Changhe has clearly understood that it is actually not as good as a real triple secret human being. A construct is a construct after all, and its combat intelligence and adaptability are relatively dull. Yes, it can probably only be regarded as a "pseudo" triple secret treasure.

And during these days, my progress in the direction of water is also very obvious.

The first time we fought on Taiping Island, I drew my sword to cut off the water. I couldn't even feel the feedback of its power. It caused no harm and it was a lonely cut.

The second battle was on Dong'an Island. I was able to chop it down with one strike, but I was a little overwhelmed by the backlash, so I left that battle to Sanniang and took charge of Hai Changkong.

 This is the third battle.

"Zhao Changhe... why are you everywhere!" This new water man actually knew who this was, and did not dare to use his body to stop him from drinking water, so he quickly slapped the side of the knife.

A ripple of water passed by. Although the knife did not cause any damage, Zhao Changhe was not shaken away either.

Zhao Changhe quietly drew a circle with his left hand, just in time to resist the water droplets splashing from the water man, without leaking.

At the same time, the sea of ​​souls exploded, and the whispers that Xia Chichi felt just now were as disturbing as a tight spell.

 The little man in the sea of ​​souls, who was held and rubbed by Sanniang every day, had become thicker and thicker without knowing when. He opened his eyes while sitting cross-legged in the sea of ​​souls.

An invisible ripple spread across the sea of ​​souls, blowing on the little man's body. Waves of mysterious symbols surrounded his body, seemingly impossible to start with, and gradually dissipated without leaving a trace.

Faced with the most troublesome mental attack from the Poseidon, he resisted it!

 At both ends of the attack and defense, they are evenly matched!

Xia Chichi on the tree was dumbfounded. When did Zhao Changhe become so powerful... Not to mention that he could detect the messy light here as accurately as he could see a little girl without clothes. Just say that the water man was simple just now. Even when a water column came at him, he couldn't even hold it. It was an absolute crushing force in terms of strength, but now Zhao Changhe could hold it evenly. Could it be that he had achieved the triple secret?

Zhao Changhe's message reached his ears at this moment: "Don't be in a daze. I'll hold this thing back while you try to break through the fishmen to crack the sculpture in the middle of the lake. This battle is very complicated. It depends on you whether you can take the initiative. The Blue Dragon Saint is so valuable..."

Xia Chichi came to his senses, and with a twist of his ice soul, he sliced ​​through the throat of the water man who was sneaking up on him. At the same time, he stood up and stepped into the water straight into the center of the lake.

 The waterman raised his hand and pointed.

There was a sudden wave in the middle of the lake, and huge waves rolled over and rushed straight towards Xia Chichi.

With a "boom", Zhao Changhe drew back his sword and punched: "Your opponent is me!"

 The huge waves hovered, exploded with a bang, and turned into water mist all over the sky.

 Xia Chichi walked through the mist and reached the statue.

Xia Longyuan watched silently. Ever since Xia Chichi went to Beijing, he had never seen his daughter's smile so relaxed and joyful. Even though she was on the battlefield, it was like holding hands with the moon.

"Is this man Zhao Changhe?" Hai Pinglan, who was hiding somewhere, murmured to himself: "How come this understanding of water waves makes him look like a man who has lived at sea for twenty years... And this punch, How come he saw the shadow of my boxing technique, my Raging Sea Fist? Where did he learn it?"
