………………
The sound of the song floated into Hou Tzu's ears, giving him the feeling that there was a great opportunity not far ahead. An immortal was passing by, and as long as he dared to meet him, he would be able to use magical skills and magical elixirs to transform himself. , no problem.
But he was not an ordinary person after all. After all, he had a foundation in spiritual practice. He instantly remembered the reminder from boatman Lao Qi and understood what was going on.
This kind of thing is like waking up the dreamer with a word. If you don't know the inside story, you will fall deeper and deeper into it, unable to extricate yourself, and unable to struggle in the trap of desire; but if you know the whole story, it is just that, it is just a very wonderful thing. Just mental fluctuations.
Has no attack power.
When Hou Zi woke up, the fairy music in his ears had long disappeared, and it seemed more like an inexplicable low whistle with strange rhythm and changing rhythm. He knew very well that this was because his practice had changed something, but to ordinary people , I’m afraid it will be difficult to resist such temptation.
Pushing open the boat window, in the vast darkness, even with his far superior eyesight, he could not clearly see the situation on the water. Once he was thirty feet away, it became pitch black, and he could not see anything unusual on the water.
I can only rely on my ears, but the sound seems to be coming from all directions. It is heard in front of me, but it is recognized in the back. It floats left and right, and the distance is uncertain.
Hou Zi drew out his Yan Ling knife and was on guard secretly, but with his current ability, he was really helpless. If he could protect himself, he would burn high incense, and it would be wishful thinking to drive away these monsters.
Taoists love to wear swords, and gentlemen often use knives. After he retired from prison, he did not have time to change his weapons, nor did he have time to be as arty as Taoists. For his habit, the knife is more convenient to use. Sir, you have to pay attention to the momentum when you draw the sword, otherwise you won't be able to accept it.
The sound was endless, and there was no movement on the several boats. Apparently the guests had been warned by the boatman, and no one came out to look around.
Lao Qi and his son were hooded on the front hatch, but Hou Zi knew from their breathing rhythm that they were not sleeping, but were just waiting on alert for the water monster to retreat.
His eyes turned to the big ship not far away. There were more than a hundred people on it, all kinds of people. Who knew what might happen?
Under his gaze, a moment later, a man walked out from the deck of the ship. He was dressed as a rich man and walked straight forward.
Lao Qi reminded him that it is best not to move while singing, and to close your eyes and concentrate on fighting the sound, otherwise the sound will be easier to take advantage of, which can explain why there is no one on the big ship to stop it; in the face of danger, everyone only cares about themselves, and There is nothing wrong with that.
Seeing that this person would step into the water without any suspense if he took a few more steps, his many years of criminal career prevented him from turning a blind eye. For a moment, he didn't care whether he had the ability or not. He rushed out of the boat canopy, shouted loudly, and at the same time Throw the teapot on the table.
"Hey! What kind of evildoer, An He Qiankun dares to openly commit crimes and deceive people's minds!"
The teapot was thrown out and shattered on the deck at the man's feet. The crisp sound of shattering porcelain was heard far in the night sky, obviously interrupting the man's progress. He looked around blankly, as if he still couldn't figure out why. Will it appear here?
At the moment when the teapot burst, a ripple under the water next to the Wu Peng boat moved quickly and went straight to where Hou Zi was standing. Although he had no experience in catching and killing monsters, as a criminal master, he would never just
Pay attention to the person's movements and forget that you are actually on the water.
As soon as the teapot was thrown, his eyes were fixed on the surrounding water to prevent possible revenge.
The water wave came suddenly, and his reaction was extremely fast. When something rushed out from under the water, he didn't even look to see what it was. He held the Yanling knife tightly with both hands and slashed with all his strength.
Down!
Amid the churning of the water, the blade struck a mass of something, covered in scales and armor, but the sharp blade still made a gash, but it didn't go deep into the flesh!
Hou Zi's heart sank, whether he was prepared or not, he still only achieved this effect. If he still couldn't solve it with a full blow, he would be in big trouble next.
The knife penetrated the monster's body, and the strange sound suddenly became high-pitched, oscillating the eardrums, and making people instantly drowsy. It was the scream of the water monster after being injured.
The scream was short-lived, and as soon as it stopped, Lao Qi and his son rushed out each holding a harpoon!
"Sir, you are too hasty!"
What they are most afraid of is this kind of bravery that is not afraid of anything. It is clear that nothing has happened to them, so they will just sleep and continue their journey tomorrow. It is still a sunny day, but they still want to go out to fight against injustice!
You have to rush out. The water demon's revenge doesn't care whether you are an accomplice or not. It will only give up if you have your way. Therefore, for the experienced father and son, there is nothing they can do if they come out with a harpoon to fight. It is not about watching.
This guest officer looks kind, so we must help him.
What made Lao Qi and his son fearful was that several more ripples appeared under the water and quickly approached the Wu Peng boat. Obviously, there was not just one water monster, but several!
Even if the three of them work together to deal with an injured water monster, what will happen if there are a few more?
The safest way for them is to return to the shore, but the mooring is still seven or eight feet away from the river bank. How can they jump back?
The opponent is a water monster, and even a stupid person knows that he cannot swim back into the water. It is no different from seeking death.
At the critical moment, there was a clear whistle and the bow of the boat sank. A woman in plain clothes suddenly appeared on the bow of the boat, her slender fingers were raised slightly, and silver light flashed on the river surface.
I saw the water suddenly boiling, as if something was struggling, and the strange scream sounded again, but it was the scream before death.
A large area of blood appeared on the river surface. At the same time, several other approaching underwater ripples quickly turned away and disappeared.
From the beginning to the end, Hou Zi, who was ignorant and ignorant, did not see what kind of Taoist skills this female crown was using. To him, all this was still a bit far away.
Lao Qi and his son were stunned with shock and did not dare to speak; Hou Zi was also a little embarrassed, but he acted righteously but was saved by a woman, which was a bit unreasonable.
The female crown gave him a faint look and said, "Dare to speak up and learn Tao for the benefit of the people. Words are good, but you must have the ability, otherwise it will backfire and cause more deaths and injuries."
You don’t even know who the person you are saving is, and you don’t even know how many river fish are lurking in the water, so you dare to come forward and draw your sword?”
For the first time in his life, Hou Zi was speechless in front of a woman. He had no choice but to do so. It was really a bit embarrassing.
The female crown looked at him quietly and didn't blame him too much. After all, being able to choose to take action is a rare quality.
"Do you know why the rich boy was deceived?"
Hou Zi shook his head, "I don't know..."
Nu Guan's voice was cold, "Because he saw countless beauties! His heart is crooked and lustful, and his mind is full of filth, so he deserves to die!"
After saying that, without hesitation, he swung himself up, as if with the breeze as his wings, and jumped back to the passenger ship as soon as the water surface was clear. He didn't even leave his name from the beginning to the end.
Hou Zi looked back at Lao Qi and his son, "I'm sorry, I won't do it next time. The boat fare will be doubled when I turn around."
After getting back into the cabin, he realized that he was a complete newcomer in the world of spiritual practice. He was extremely weak and could no longer pretend to be a prisoner; in the world of spiritual practice, his official skin was of no use at all.
I meditate in front of the window, the night is silent, and those jellyfish dare not come back after being killed. In the midst of melancholy, a burst of piano music floats from the direction of the passenger ship, which seems to have some kind of soothing effect, making people feel calm.
...The Taoist priest of Yaoshui carries his harp at night and distinguishes the pronunciation in the moonlight. He sits in the frost and plays it, and a boatload of merchants returns home.
