The lake outside the guest house was instantly reddened by the fire. From the side facing the lake, you can see the magnificent flames in the sky like the sunset.
Among the hundreds of guests who were still in the guest house, how many people were quietly observing the lake. More than one person was restless and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to do something, or at least go and see the excitement, but most people just
He suppressed his eagerness to move and chose to remain on the sidelines.
There is no way, fishing has been going on in the lake in the past few days. Not only the stupid fish that jumped out of the lake were stewed, but also the ordinary fish that could not resist the temptation were caught cleanly. What was left was just the friendly fish on the side of the hook.
The melon fish that are not interested in eating the bait are just the melon fish that are afraid to eat the bait when they see it.
The fire burned so fiercely that the guest house was silent for a while, which disappointed those including Wang Fei who were secretly preparing to use heavy blows to maintain order.
However, the current situation is unclear and there are many people who are cautious. It is hard to say what the situation will be like in the guest house once chaos breaks out.
Especially the disciples of Zhuoyu Villa who are staying here know that the guest house is truly empty now.
Where the flames started, it was already a mess.
The ferocious beasts were roaring, the phantoms were flying, the smoke was everywhere, the flames were raging, and the water and fire had become a chaotic battlefield. After completing the first mission, the turtle pirates and water ghosts immediately drew their weapons and planned to attack Shi Chunqing.
The team joined forces and fought the counterattack of Zhuoyu Villa with real swords and guns.
However……
Where is Shi Chunqing's team?
"It's so quiet."
Hua Qian gently emerged from the water and had this idea.
It was the deepest part of the night, and everything was quiet under the water. I couldn't see everything outside the water. I wonder if this was the Zhuoyu Villa that Mrs. Huarong often mentioned?
Although you can take a breath after coming out of the underground river and breathe in the fresh air in the mountains, it is far from time to relax. Shi Chunqing adjusted the team in the water, and the queue still moved forward in order. No one dared to disturb the order.
Naturally, Hua Qian could only take things step by step.
He already understood in his heart that at this point, it no longer mattered whether he could exert his combat effectiveness. The mission had been completed. The key was whether the message just sent was received.
The communication device was given to him by Wei Se for emergency communication. It is said that Zhuoyu Villa itself has a device that can flexibly communicate instantly during the experiment, but it is newly developed and is not stable, and in some closed areas
, it is easy to malfunction in remote places, so what Wei Se gave him was an older and more time-tested magic weapon. It could only send out a signal once, but it was stable enough and would almost never miss. Only after it is sent, the person who sent the message can
When I don't get a response, I feel unsure.
It was even more worrying to see the silence in Zhuoyu Villa, like an unsuspecting prey.
But Hua Qian also understood that when a hunter ambushes his prey, he himself also remains quiet.
It is not yet known who is the prey and who is the hunter.
Shi Chunqing led people to dive all the way, landed next to the big bluestone in Gongyu Pavilion, and moved forward in the dark. It was low tide late at night, and the big bluestone was exposed out of the water. There was a tall man, who happened to be similar in height to Shi Chunqing. He walked around the bluestone.
His figure just disappeared.
Attacking the Jade Pavilion is a Jade Pavilion, not a sword furnace, and it does not have the conditions to make swords. Xue Xianyun forged swords elsewhere. Of course Shi Chunqing knew where to get the black tiger's heart.
After landing on the shore - actually a wooden plank road built next to the swamp - Shi Chunqing's movements were not as fast and firm as in the water, but moved forward unhurriedly, suppressing the speed and looking left and right.
, as if looking for something.
Are you looking for the support troops brought by the escort?
Hua Qian guessed, and was a little surprised: Why didn't he see the troops protecting the army? Others didn't know, but he knew that there was indeed such a group of troops. Those people had already been divided into parts, divided into batches and time.
They smuggled into Zhuoyu Villa according to their different identities. Shi Chunqing also sent a signal to inform them. At this time, they should unite together as planned. Why is there no trace of them?
Shouldn't he create chaos first and let Shi Chunqing complete his plan of seizing the east and attacking the west? Even if he sets a fire?
Is it true that as Shi Chunqing said, the people here have been wiped out by Zhuoyu Villa long ago and there is no hope at all?
If so... Hua Qian's eyes moved behind Shi Chunqing:
Shouldn't we just kill him and then we're done?
Just as he was making a move, Shi Chunqing suddenly groped around the river, and then lifted up a transparent curtain out of thin air like a door curtain.
brush--
The scenery before my eyes changes!
The originally empty sky suddenly changed. Dots of lights appeared not far away. It turned out that there were houses built along the plank road by the lake. Although they could not be seen clearly in the dark, they could still vaguely see their own characteristics. Regardless of
How strange it is, they are all real houses inhabited by people.
He tore off a layer of disguise and came from the wilderness to the human world in an instant.
However, what stunned Hua Qian the most was that not far from these houses, there was a tall tower like a stone pillar standing. The top of the tower was burning with blue-white flames. The flames were so quiet, and it was definitely not an "evil fire" caused by arson.
", but the high-temperature flames that only appear during real smelting.
Sword furnace? Is that a sword furnace?
The majestic sword furnace, the key to the success of sword-making, a thorn in the eyes and flesh of countless people, is just built on the waterside in such a grand manner? Is it just such a cover-up? You can get there by walking? There is always a fire burning, no matter
Tell those uneasy and well-intentioned people day and night that this is the sword furnace they want to destroy?
Is Zhuoyu Villa too brave?
After so many days, haven't you been pushed down by others? Are these turtle bandits too incompetent?
Hua Qian's shock was actually no different from that of others. Others were also shocked, but their stances were different. But they all had one suspicion: Why did they need to specifically touch and do it? After spending so much money and such a huge price to go up the mountain to protect the bodyguards, Hua Qian was shocked.
The army, what on earth is it doing?
Shi Chunqing said nothing and led the team towards the sword furnace. The team was full of capable people and walked on the uneven wooden plank road without making any sound.
Seeing that the wooden plank road has reached the end, there is a tidal flat in front of it. Suddenly, countless thunderbolts burst out from the water!
No one knows where the thunder and lightning come from. It seems that thousands of thunder snakes are dormant under the calm water, but they are startled by a small stone. Once startled, it will be a thunderous force!
Thunder and lightning started in the water, covering the swamp in an instant. Seen from the sky, the dark lake water suddenly turned blue-purple. The thunder snake climbed up the boardwalk at a speed that the naked eye could not catch, and rushed towards the people on the boardwalk.
.
At this moment, even Hua Qian was panicked - thunder and lightning can't see, so you can't tell who is a spy!
However, almost at the same moment, Shi Chunqing moved. He poured a jar of liquid that he had prepared earlier onto the boardwalk. The boardwalk seemed to be covered with a layer of oil, and the oil was glowing with a faint light. That light
Different from lightning, it is thinner, but like an insulating pad, it completely isolates lightning and electric light. Not even the misty water vapor wrapped in the lightning can penetrate into the light, so the group is absolutely safe at least in front of them.
Of course Hua Qian didn't know what this layer of oily light was, but that kind of light was familiar to him. It seemed to be a phantom?
Although Phantom is soft, it is not a liquid after all. Could that jar be Phantom sauce?
It seems that the Phantom does not conduct electricity.
Under the protection of the light blanket, Shi Chunqing was safe and sound. He pulled out a sword with his backhand and said loudly: "Is this Junior Brother Jiang here?"
With this real sound, a person descended from the sky, but he was sitting on a very vivid thunderbird. His face was pale when reflected by the lightning, and his sword eyebrows were raised, and he shouted: "Shi Chunqing, you are really here?! You are actually here?"
Do you still have the nerve?"
Shi Chunqing said calmly: "Since you are waiting for me here, you should have known that I would come. It seems that you have done a good job. Zhuoyu Villa is very peaceful, and there is no trace of damage. Everyone else has been sent away by you, right?
"It's very easy and methodical. What method is used? Who is in charge of the overall situation? You guys are too impetuous, let alone him. I think it should be Junior Brother Tang, right?"
He asked a series of questions to himself, but Jiang Shenyi could not answer. With an excited expression, he stood up on the Thunderbird and shouted: "Why did you betray Master? Why did you betray us?"
Shi Chunqing looked at the sword furnace from a distance and said: "Junior Brother Tang, is he still forging swords in the sword furnace? He is indeed our little genius. He has been able to forge swords after only a few years here. This year's sword forging should be successful, right?"
Being ignored by him, Jiang Shenyi was so angry that his eyes turned red and he asked again word for word: "Why did you betray us?"
Shi Chunqing finally withdrew his gaze, turned to look at him, and said: "It's okay for him to ask me this question. If Junior Brother Tang asked me, I would also be willing to explain it to him seriously. But if you...or other juniors ask me, but
It's funny. How can you and I use the word betrayal?"
Jiang Shenyi was stunned by him. Just as Shi Chunqing said, it doesn't matter about friendship, only about kindness. Shi Chunqing has always been kind to him and has never gained anything. Naturally, there is no betrayal. If it is really necessary to cut off the kindness and righteousness, he should not
When asking about betrayal, you should instead ask:
"Why did you abandon us?"
However, at this moment, he could not say such words, so he suppressed his excitement and glared at him: "Why did you betray your mentor? You took away his life and treasure and forced him to heartbreak, and now you have
If you bring such a thief up to destroy his forged sword, do you have to kill him? Are you still a human being?"
Shi Chunqing paused and said in a calm tone: "Although we have parted ways, I don't want him to die. I am here today for his own good. It is best not to forge his sword. If it is forged, it will not end well."
I took away his sword-making materials to save him, but I didn't expect him to be stubborn, so I had to do it again, and this time I would never allow him to make swords."
Seeing Jiang Shenyi opening his mouth to ask, Shi Chunqing said: "Don't ask, you don't understand even if I tell you. Now I go to see him, he may understand. If Tang Zhao was here, he might have guessed it by himself without me."
Let’s talk.”
Jiang Shenyi was so angry that he was trembling all over and gritted his teeth and said: "How can I let you pass? I want you to disturb him from making swords? If you don't want to say it, then go to hell!"
