Although he knew something was wrong, Lu San couldn't think too much about it.
He looked up and his pupils suddenly shrank.
On the deck of the Lin Family treasure ship, Sha LiFei was organizing the Lin Family sailors to defend themselves.
They are back to back, forming a defensive circle against the outside world.
Or Blade Light flashes, struggling to cut off the hook rope thrown up, or squatting on the edge of the ship, shooting downwards.
For a moment, blood splattered everywhere and muskets roared.
Others were not idle either, using their own methods to fend off the enemy.
Kuai Dayou, Fatty Lin and Kong Shangzhao were guarding the door of the cabin. The three of them cooperated tacitly. You used the knife to resist, and I threw out the flying knife. One person shot, and the other guarded behind him.
Inside the cabin is Twelve Yuan Chen luggage, which is very precious.
All water bandits who came near the cabin were killed.
The one that scares the enemy the most is undoubtedly Long Yan'er.
She waved her water sleeves, and Gu worms sprang out. Many water bandits who were close to the Lin Family ship were drilled into their bodies by Gu worms. They lost their minds and began to kill their companions around them crazily.
But similarly, there are also masters among the water bandits who use hidden weapons.
Long Yan'er had no choice but to dodge and cast spells at the same time.
As for Wu Ba, he held Tiger Crouching Cannon and stared at the water.
He didn't fire either, but the barrel kept moving.
Lu San felt a chill in his heart and followed his gaze towards the turbulent water.
He could also feel that there were two sinister auras hiding, waiting like poisonous snakes.
Finally, he saw the two of them on a boat in the distance.
One of them was wearing a shabby green shirt, with a haggard appearance, a gray complexion, sunken eye sockets like a skull, sparse white hair, and was holding a Soul-Calling Banner in his hand.
The other person is a woman, wearing Dan Role opera robe, with heavy oil paint on her face, she seems to be smiling and crying.
It is "Yellow Springs Wanderer" and "Green Gauze Woman", the class leaders of Yangzhou Ghost Opera Troupe.
Ghost Opera Troupe monster!
Lu San Although he did not know their names, he was able to identify their identities.
But I saw that "Yellow Springs Wanderer" was holding Soul-Calling Banner, making hand gestures and chanting incantations, and staring at the ship. It was obvious that he was using some kind of mind-disturbing secret method of ecstasy.
The flower girl is facing the turbid water, her orchid fingers are slightly raised, as if she is singing an opera.
As she chanted, the water flow started to swirl strangely near her, a cold and dirty aura spread out, and the water bandits became more and more crazy.
The two were well hidden and hid behind other boats.
Wu Ba Although he could vaguely feel the direction, he could not locate it accurately.
After all, he awakened Body Mystical Power, and his detection ability was insufficient, so he couldn't see clearly from further away.
Not only that, those water bandits who are proficient in water skills have also gotten into the bottom of the ship and dug into it.
As the waves rolled, sawdust kept floating up.
"Wu Ba, over there!"
Lu San quickened his pace without hesitation and shouted loudly.
At the same time, Falcon Li Dong had flown through the sky, and an eagle was wailing above Ghost Opera Troupe.
They often practice these coordination methods.
Wu Ba suddenly understood, facing the water in the direction of the hawk's cry, and suddenly pulled the trigger.
Not good!
"Yellow Springs Wanderer" and "Green Gauze Woman" saw that the situation was not good, and exerted force with their feet. When Hidden Strength exploded, they used escape techniques to turn into two thick fogs, one black and one white, which quickly dispersed.
Boom!
There was a roar, accompanied by firelight and smoke, and water waves splashed ten feet high.
Wu Ba used shotguns, and all the boats in that area of water were reduced to pieces.
Just now the thick fog covered Wu Ba, so Wu Ba didn't dare to waste it casually. Now Tiger Crouching Cannon finally exerts its power.
The surrounding water bandits who were attacking were startled.
Maybe they were afraid of the power of artillery, maybe they didn't have the secret skills of the two demons Ghost Opera Troupe to disturb the gods, or maybe they saw the Yangzhou fog dissipating, and they finally woke up. The leader One-Eyed Strongman shouted:
"Hard stubble, tight wind, pull!"
After giving the order, everyone immediately fled in all directions.
How could Lu San let them go? He pinched Mystical Gestures and patted Demon Gourd.
"Buzz--!"
A black cloud spurted out from the gourd's mouth in an instant. As soon as it appeared, it suddenly spread and screamed.
Buzz buzz!
It makes people's scalp numb.
These little things eat poisonous poison for a living. Since Long Yan'er was in the team, those Gu worms that failed in research and were difficult to control were all fed to Demon Gourd, and the poisonous bees became more and more ferocious.
With the sound of intensive flapping of wings, it pounced on the water bandits who were trying to jump into the water or climb onto the boat to escape.
The pitiful howl instantly tore through the smoke-filled air.
"Ah--my eyes!"
"Poison! Poisonous wasp!"
The water bandits were like a colony of ants doused with boiling water, rolling and slapping wildly on the narrow shipboard or in the turbid river water, and even diving into the water.
The sting of a venomous bee carries venom, piercing the skin and penetrating into the texture.
The severe pain and rapidly spreading paralysis made them instantly lose their fighting power, like fish whose throats were strangled by invisible hands, twitching in vain on the deck, foaming at the mouth, or falling directly into the water, with strings of turbid bubbles emerging.
In an instant, the river was filled with scratching and rolling figures, and the scene was chaotic and tragic.
Long Yan'er's eyes were cold, and his sleeves were drawn in front of him like a snake.
A few wisps of light cyan powder that were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye scattered into the air with the wind. The poisonous bees seemed to have received some kind of instructions, and their attacks became more precise and manic, specifically looking for bites on the exposed flesh of the water bandits.
It didn't take long for this group of water bandits to be wiped out.
Some were hurt to death and sank into the water, while others desperately begged for mercy. Under the sight of Sha LiFei and the sailors, they lay wailing on the boat and raised their hands in surrender.
However, just as the poisonous bees were raging, the two Ghost Opera Troupe disappeared without a trace.
Lu San shook his head slightly and had no plans to pursue.
The current situation is chaotic and unclear, and risking pursuit will lead to danger.
At the same time, the sound of rapid footsteps and the sound of gold and iron could be heard outside the pier.
But I saw Xu Zhenshan bringing Enforcement Hall disciples and Yangzhou Commandery Commandant Office people swarming in.
Everyone's expressions were Solemn and Killing Intent, their swords and guns were unsheathed, and the guns in their hands shone with a cold luster.
"Line up! Fire!"
Commandery Commandant Office officer's hoarse roar sounded.
The heavy fog has been completely dispersed by the river breeze, and the vision has become clear.
The remaining Japanese pirates lost their smoke cover and saw a large group of officers and soldiers approaching, and they suddenly panicked.
"Bang bang bang!"
Accompanied by dense and chaotic gunshots, lead bullets were fired like a gust of wind.
Many Japanese pirates had blood splattered on their bodies, like ripe berries being broken and falling in pieces.
Those who resisted were quickly torn to pieces under the organized salvos of the navy.
However, there are still some brave Japanese pirates who are skilled in strange and cunning techniques.
Seeing that the situation was over, several black shadows quickly rushed towards the cargo boxes and reeds piled by the river.
Several of them violently threw several black and shiny projectiles.
"Bang! Bang!" The projectile fell to the ground and exploded. It was not an explosion, but a large cloud of thick, pungent, gray-white smoke that obscured vision.
In the smoke, the silhouette of a ninja can be vaguely seen passing by.
When the smoke was blown away by the river wind, those figures had disappeared, leaving only a few water stains and traces of broken reeds. Apparently, they escaped into the distant mountains with the help of escape skills...
The fighting finally subsided.
However, the price of victory is shocking.
Everyone in Yangzhou Prefecture had rushed to the high place at the edge of the pier. Looking at the scene in front of them, even if they were used to seeing life and death, they couldn't help but take a breath of air.
The originally wide canal waterway is now like a pagoda in hell.
The burning fireship was at the center of the tragedy.
Several huge and mighty navy warships were completely ignited, and the hulls were like huge torches. The raging flames licked the dark night sky and turned the river water red.
From time to time, the keel of the ship's hull made a harsh cracking and collapse sound in the fierce fire.
"Boom! Crash--!"
The huge mast crashed into the water with the sail full of flames, causing water columns to reach the sky.
The air was filled with the choking smell of gunpowder smoke and burnt wood. Even stronger was the smell of roasted human flesh and the thick smell of blood from the river.
Thick smoke billowed and spiraled upward, meeting the low hanging clouds.
Broken ship planks, floating corpses, and burning sails and cables covered the river surface.
The soldiers who had a chance to escape struggled and moaned in shallow water or on the beach, soaked to the skin and in shock. Some of the severely burned soldiers were writhing in pain in the mud.
Yangzhou Magistrate Du Ting looked at the scene in front of him and roared in a hoarse voice:
"Madman! What do these madmen want to do?! The navy... the main force of the navy is almost..."
Commandery Commandant Office Chiliarch Chen, looked at the burning wreckage with empty eyes and murmured, "It's over..."
They know that it is no longer as simple as being dismissed from office.
The entire Yangzhou Pier fell into a brief silence.
As for Lu San and others, after settling the boat, they hurried to the city...
In Yangzhou City, the thick fog has long since dissipated, and the people went out to look around with fear on their faces.
Lu San led everyone anxiously across the long street and arrived outside Wang Maode's mansion Jiyu Garden.
However, the sight before them made their hearts sink suddenly.
In the open space on the street, a stream of Yin Energy rolled like ink.
In the center, the figure of Li Yan is no longer what it usually looks like.
He was surrounded by human-shaped black mist, which was three meters high, and there were flickering blue flames.
"What's going on..."
Lu San felt a little unbelievable after seeing it.
He has seen some of Li Yan's methods before.
This Divine Transformation Method cannot be used for too long, otherwise it will backfire.
Today, Netherworld Transformation still maintains it!
And just in front of Li Yan, the clone of Marshal Wen has turned into a furnace of thunder and real fire, suppressing and refining a mass of terrifying black energy below that is constantly screaming and twisting.
Every time the thunder and fire hit, the black air would violently churn, making the sound of a baby crying.
The sound was a sharp neighing sound that could sting people Divine Soul to the point of splitting.
Wang Dao Xuan on the side also had a pale face, big beads of sweat rolled down his temples, and his breath was a little unstable. It was obvious that the previous spell casting and processing of Netherworld Stage had consumed a lot of money.
Seeing the crowd rushing towards him, he immediately took a few steps forward and explained in a hoarse voice:
"Don't even come close!"
Having said that, he Li Yan's eyes were full of anxiety. "Maintaining Netherworld Transformation's summoning Marshal Wen is already very draining on Divine Soul, let alone refining such a vicious evil!"
"Marshal Wen's divine power is domineering. As a communicator, Yan XiaoGe's physical body is a dam. The 'body orifice' bears double impacts. If ordinary people come here, Three Souls Seven Spirits would have been crushed..."
Everyone took a deep breath when they heard this.
Fatty Lin swallowed, his lips were dry.
Sha LiFei's eyes were even more gloomy, and his fists clenched loudly.
They were worried, but they couldn't do anything to help.
"Ah--!"
At this moment, a low roar burst out from Li Yan's throat, carrying the smell of blood.
His eyes flashed brightly, as if he had regained some clarity, and his right hand suddenly reached into his arms.
Everyone's attention was drawn towards it.
It was an ancient, pitch-black token the size of a palm, neither gold nor wood. The edge was engraved with densely packed small divine runes and seals. It was the "Living Underworld Messenger" token.
Li Yan pinched Mystical Gestures without hesitation and pointed at the hook.
"Buzz!"
The Gouji trembled, and Soul Hooking Chain, which was about to collapse, immediately became stable.
Wang Dao Xuan's eyes were filled with joy and he murmured, "I almost forgot about this..."
Starting from the capital, Li Yan completed several missions one after another. Celestial Decree was used to refine Five Directions Fengdu Banner, and there were three left for summoning Yin Division soldiers and horses. The remaining two divine gangs were of no use at all.
Soul Hooking Chain is also the great Luo Divine Ability, which can be strengthened with the Divine Gang.
After absorbing all the divine powers, the body of Li Yan Yin Shen became stable again.
The power to restrain Yingsha also suddenly increased, and the weird howl in the thunder and fire became more and more shrill.
Of course, even this is difficult.
Li Yan and Great Luo Dharma Body have many more cracks.
Time seems to be stretched infinitely, and every second is like being boiled in a frying pan.
Wang Dao Xuan clenched his fists and recited scriptures to protect his mind.
Finally--
There was a loud rumble on the ground, which seemed to be mixed with the roar of gods.
But when I saw the floating thunder fire on the long street, it suddenly compressed towards the center as if it was collapsing.
"Tsk--!!!"
The shrill howl suddenly stopped.
The ferocious spirit of resentment was completely eliminated by refining.
The thunder and fire surged, turning into gods and dispersing the shadows.
When the air waves dissipated, a humanoid spirit about a foot tall and as condensed as black jade was quietly suspended.
There is no trace of malice around it, instead there is a majestic energy flowing around it.
The black mist on Li Yan also quickly dissipated.
His face turned pale, his legs gave way and he fell to the ground, "Daoist Master, take the flag and become a divine general..."
After saying that, he rolled his eyes and fainted.
The "Hundred Ghosts and Yin Sha" was refined by thunder and fire to remove his evil spirit, and turned into the best Yin general embryo.
Seeing that Li Yan was fine, the boulder hanging over everyone's hearts finally fell to the ground.
They rushed forward to help, and Wang Dao Xuan let out a long sigh of relief, stepped forward, stretched out his hands, held one of the "Five Directions Fengdu Banner", and chanted the secret spell of gathering in his mouth.
Of course he knows how to gather troops and horses.
"Screech! By the decree of Fengdu, my soul returns to my flag! Take it away!"
As the mantra was recited, the black shadow was absorbed, and the Five Directions Fengdu Banner breath in his hand instantly became thick, Solemn and Killing Intent and smooth, and a coercion faintly emerged from the flag.
The original Five Camps Ghost Soldiers, with the "god general" as the core of the command, doubled its power.
Their movements have already attracted many people.
Some people thought they were demons, ghosts and gods, so they started burning incense and worshiping them.
"Let's go back to the ship first!"
Wang Dao Xuan gave the order, and everyone immediately left and headed for the dock...
I don't know how long it took, but Li Yan faintly woke up.
He felt weak all over and his vision kept getting dark.
This is a sign of excessive consumption of Divine Soul. Even if you have Great Luo Dharma Body, you still need to rest.
After Li Yan calmed down and looked around, he suddenly frowned.
He is in his own room in the cabin of the Lin Family treasure ship.
More importantly, judging from the sounds coming from the window, he is still in Yangzhou.
"Yan XiaoGe, are you awake?"
At this moment, Sha LiFei heard the noise and pushed the door open and came in.
Li Yan frowned and asked, "How many days have I slept, why are you still in Yangzhou?"
"I slept for three full days."
After Sha LiFei replied, he bent down and shook his head:
"Fatty Lin They have left early, we still have to stay in Yangzhou..."
