Xuan'er and Princess Xuanbo cheered when they heard that they would see the light of day again soon.
Ya Yi'an smiled and said: "But there are no edible fish or shrimps in the Blackwater River. We are only afraid of starving for the whole day."
Tang Lie laughed and said: "We can still survive for one day. When we get out of this dark underground world, we will have a good meal."
Although the waves of the Blackwater River were not big, the long and boring journey in the dark made everyone feel drowsy. Xuan Bo and Xuan'er cuddled each other and fell asleep. Tang Lie and Ya Yi'an took turns rowing the oars. Ya Yi'an didn't dare to close his eyes even when he was resting. He pointed Tang Lie in the correct sailing direction.
Tang Lie yawned and said, "Where does this Blackwater River lead to?"
Ya Yi'an said: "The Blackwater River runs through the entire underground world. We are now sailing in the northeast direction. The exit is the Earth's Center Lake. At the Earth's Center Lake, the Blackwater River comes out of the ground. It continues to flow northeast and rushes to Bolang Bay. From there it merges into the Xuhai."
"The bandits have already fled to the underground forest. Why should we choose this path?"
Ya Yi'an said: "The bandits fled to the underground forest in large numbers. The target is also huge. It is impossible for the imperial army not to notice this. If we follow the past now, we will definitely become the first target of the imperial army to pursue. Head west from the Blackwater River waterway. .It is equivalent to running in the opposite direction of the imperial army's pursuit. It should be the safest choice."
Xuan Bo suddenly screamed and woke up from his dream. His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. His tall chest rose and fell violently. Xuan'er was also awakened by Xuan Bo and looked at her with concern.
Tang Lie looked at the suffering imperial princess with love and affection. He said softly: "I have a nightmare."
Xuan Bo's eyes were slightly red. He nodded slightly and said, "I dreamed...I dreamed...Father..." Thinking of the situation in the dream just now, Xuan Bo burst into tears. He held Xuanbo's arms and comforted her softly.
Tang Lie comforted her and said, "You don't have to worry too much. A good person has his own destiny. I believe your father will not have any accidents."
Xuan Bo responded with tears in his eyes. At this time, the wind and waves on the river became much faster. Tang Lie's eyes suddenly widened. There was a snow-white water line on the river behind him and he quickly pursued Shi Zhou.
Ya Yi'an noticed this unusual phenomenon almost at the same time. He exclaimed: "There can't be such a big wave in the Heishui River..." Before he finished speaking, a huge wave was imminent. The big wave was about 20 meters high. .White droplets spewed out from high places, overwhelmingly sweeping towards the stone boat where they were.
Tang Lie stretched out his arms to hug Xuan Bo and Xuan'er's delicate bodies respectively, fearing that they would be swept away by the big waves.
Ya Yi'an desperately tried to control the boat. The boat floated to the top of the waves like floating leaves. Then it was thrown up by the huge waves. It rolled and fell to the river. Fortunately, the boat did not overturn. .
The boat was still spinning in the middle of the river. A huge wave more powerful than the big wave just now was approaching.
They watched helplessly as the huge waves rolled the boat in. The cold river water immediately soaked their whole bodies. Tang Lie held Xuan Bo with one hand and Xuan'er with the other and swam desperately to the river bank. Ya Yi'an was hit by the big waves. Arriving more than thirty meters away from them, he called loudly, but his voice was completely obscured by the sound of huge waves crashing on the river surface.
Xuan'er was not good at water. She choked on several mouthfuls of cold water in the river, and her consciousness became blurred. She relied on Tang Lie to support her body. Otherwise, she would have been washed away by the big waves.
Although Tang Lie's swimming ability was very good, he had to take care of both of them at the same time. In addition, the Heishui River suddenly became windy and rough. He clearly saw that the river bank was only ten meters away. However, the further he swam, the farther he swam, and he was hit by the big waves. Push back to the center of the river.
Ya Yi'an's head suddenly emerged from the river not far away. He pulled the big leather bag from behind and pulled hard on the metal wire wrapped around the bag. The bag expanded rapidly on the water. An emergency rescue ship An inflatable raft appeared in front of them. This guy actually had the ability to predict the future.
At this time, the wind and waves became much smaller. Tang Lie happily took Xuan'er and Xuan Bo to swim towards the raft. With the help of Ya Yi'an, he climbed onto the raft.
After the violence, the Heishui River immediately returned to calm. Tang Lie could hardly believe what had just happened. He sighed: "It's really strange. How could such a big storm arise out of something so good?"
Ya Yi'an's face was full of horror: "I'm afraid there are even bigger troubles waiting for us."
Tang Lie followed his gaze and saw a ray of blue light in the depths of the darkness quickly chasing them towards the black water.
Almost in an instant, the blue creature had clearly appeared in their field of vision. It was a beautiful blue dragon. Its wide spread wings almost covered the entire river. Its whole body emitted an azure light. The scales and muscles are actually translucent, allowing people to clearly see its bone structure.
The sharp claws occasionally scratched on the calm water. Several white waves splashed out under it. Its emerald-like eyes penetrated the darkness. Four red figures conveyed through its eyes. into its mind. This is the goal it is looking for.
Ya Yi'an's face showed an expression of despair. When he saw the Rhinoceros in front of the Parthian city, he guessed that there must be powerful mysterious forces controlling those huge and savage creatures. At this moment, he saw the blue dragon He has completely understood that those who can control the blue dragon are nothing to control those rhinoceros beasts.
Xuan Bo's beautiful eyes were always staring at Tang Lie. As long as she was by Tang Lie's side, she would not feel any fear.
Tang Lie pursed his lips and looked affectionately at Xuan'er, who was still in a coma. His eyes came to Xuan Bo's pretty face again. Xuan Bo seemed to see something in his eyes. He said in a trembling voice: "don't want……"
Tang Lie gently lifted Xuan Bo's perfectly curved chin and summoned up the courage to kiss her delicate lips gently. Xuan Bo didn't refuse. She couldn't even think of any reason for refusal. If Tang Lie is suspected of taking advantage of the Yi clan's large net, it will naturally happen now. Two red clouds appeared on Xuan Bo's pretty face.
"I will be back." Tang Lie said with confidence.
Ya Yi'an looked at Tang Lie with reverence. He rarely admired others in his life. This time he was truly impressed. Who said that heroism can only conquer innocent girls.
Tang Lie slowly held the long knife in his right hand: "He is my brother. Please help me take care of them."
The blue dragon's belly is close to the water, drawing a wide water line on the water. When faced with the prey that has fallen into its grasp, it will play with it to its heart's content.
"Go quickly." Along with Tang Lie's roar, he kicked hard on the back of the raft with both feet. His body shot up backwards like a sharp arrow from the string.
The blue dragon looked disdainfully at the overestimating human being in front of it. It simply did not believe that his small power would cause any harm to itself.
Tang Lie had already chosen his next foothold before jumping off the raft. The blue dragon's raised forehead was quietly locked by him. If the blue dragon opened its giant kiss at this moment, I'm afraid Tang Lie would inevitably be swallowed by it. .But the blue dragon was too proud. It never thought that Tang Lie would dare to challenge itself.
Tang Lie's left foot firmly stepped on the blue dragon's forehead. He did not dare to stop at all. He took a continuous leap and rode on the blue dragon's neck accurately.
When had the proud blue dragon ever been humiliated like this? No one except its owner dared to treat it like this. Its head suddenly sank into the water. Tang Lie was almost thrown out by its sharp movements. He hugged it tightly with his left arm. His neck and body bear the impact of the high-speed water flow.
The waves set off by the blue dragon sent the raft farther. Ya Yi'an seized this rare opportunity and slid the raft desperately, trying to escape from the range of the blue dragon's power.
Blue Dragon immersed his upper body in the black water river for a long time. The long breath-holding made Tang Lie unbearable. He freed his right hand, grabbed a long knife and slashed hard at Blue Dragon's scale-covered neck. His chops His movements weakened in the water. Even so, the blue dragon's neck was cut with a long bloody opening by a sharp knife. The pain caused the blue dragon to suddenly raise its head, spread its wings and rush upward with all its strength. For a short time, After flying at high speed, his head hit the hard rock dome above. Huge rocks poured down from the dome like a shower.
Tang Lie released the blue dragon's neck in time to avoid being knocked into a pulp. His body slid down along the blue dragon's rough back. The moment he was about to break away from the blue dragon's body, Tang Lie grabbed the blue dragon's neck. Tail. If he fell from such a height, he would definitely die.
The blue dragon roared angrily. Its thick, long and powerful tail struck hard at the huge stalagmite hanging down from the dome.
After the loud noise, smoke and dust flew everywhere. The stalagmite was smashed to pieces by its powerful tail. At the critical moment, Tang Lie hid on the ventral side of the blue dragon's tail and once again escaped the blue dragon's powerful attack.
His hands were already bleeding from friction on the rough scales on the tail. Tang Lie endured the pain and held on to the blue dragon's tail. Only now did the blue dragon realize how difficult the human being in front of him was. He dived from the height into the Blackwater River again. And left. Sometimes its body sank into the water, and sometimes it soared under the dome of the underground world. No matter how hard it tried, it never shook Tang Lie away.
The blue dragon-shaped tattoo on Tang Lie's right arm began to become clear in the darkness. Once he reaches his body's potential, this tattoo will appear.
The entire right arm is filled with incomparable power. It locks the blue dragon's tail like an iron hoop.
The blue dragon's green eyes suddenly showed an inexplicable fear. For the first time, it lost confidence in its own powerful strength. It felt a burning pain in its tail. But it was Tang Lie who peeled off its scales.
The pain made the blue dragon howl loudly. It flew forward like lightning, leading Tang Lie into the unknown darkness at extreme speed.
Watching the blue dragon and Tang Lie passing by from above, Princess Xuanbo couldn't help but burst into tears. Ya Yi'an was about to comfort her, but he heard the sound of thundering waves. There was only one thought left in his mind. .It’s over. How do I face Tang Lie? The surging waves swallowed up the raft in an instant. Everything was immersed in boundless darkness again.
