Chapter 7, Black Dragon Appears
Chen Xiandeng was familiar with the nature of water. He was the first to get up, hold the side of the ship and look at the river, trying to find something to lift the official ship. Suddenly, a sharp-eyed sailor pointed to the downstream where the thieves gathered and exclaimed: "Look at that..."
Everyone looked eastward and downstream, and then they realized that today was a sunset. It was already the moon in the middle of the sky. A full moon hangs high above the river surface, illuminating the river surface. You can clearly see a silver wave swelling violently on the water surface. Under the water, a black shadow rushed towards the fleet of thieves like an arrow. Judging from the direction and speed, it was this thing that had just passed the bottom of the official ship. I guess the person on the boat stopped and looked at this side because he heard the huge sound of the black shadow.
Everyone above focused on the battle between the human and dragons, but did not notice the huge noise around them. The black shadow in the water instantly approached a small boat. The water waves were separated but a huge mouth opened from the water. The mouth was taller than the people on the boat, and its mouth was covered with steel teeth shining coldly under the moonlight, which made people frightened. There were two men in soapy clothes on the boat, who were so scared that they were stunned for a moment. Seeing the huge mouth motionless, the huge mouth suddenly closed, and the man and the boat bit it into two pieces.
Chen Xiandeng exclaimed: "It's the Black Dragon King!"
People who run boats during the Jianghan period have heard the legend of the Black Dragon King: Earth dragons are usually only about six or seven feet long, and occasionally some earth dragons that can grow more than 100 feet long can only be called "Crocodile Dragon". Now this giant dragon is more than three feet long, which is the Crocodile Dragon King. Ordinary earth dragons swallow a sac and the drum sounds, and the roar is dull, but the Black Dragon King roars like thunder. According to legend, the skin of this crocodile dragon is made into a war drum, and its sound can be spread over a hundred miles, and it is used to send orders to command millions of troops at the same time. It is the best among war drums.
Pei Min is from the north and asked in confusion: "What Black Dragon King?"
Chen Xiandeng said: "Look at the body of this crocodile is not less than three feet long. The older the earth dragon, the darker the color of the crocodile armor. The back is mostly clear gray. This crocodile is as dark as iron. It seems to be the legendary Black Dragon King. This Black Dragon King has a great origin. According to legend, in the 14th year of Daye at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang Guang of Sui fled to Danyang. Seeing the chaos in the world, the tyrant king wanted to be peaceful in the south of the Yangtze River and not to restore it again.
Restored the Central Plains, but the guards of Guanzhong were all unwilling to stay in Jiangnan, so the army mutiny broke out, and the rebel soldiers rushed into the palace to kill Yang Guang. Yang Guang wanted to drink poisonous wine and committed suicide, but he was eventually hanged and killed by Guoyi's captain Linghu Xingda. Yang Guang died and the country was destroyed. Once the emperor's only thin-skinned coffin was buried by the river, so his resentment did not dissipate and he became the black dragon king.
Although Chen Xiandeng is not very energetic in his daily work, he is very wise when talking about the rural legend. Tonger and Li Bai believed it and widened their eyes together, thinking that there is such a thing? Pei Min scolded: "Nonsense, Emperor Yang is almost a hundred years old. Although this dragon is huge, can it live a hundred years? Don't gossip here."
He Zhizhang corrected Pei Min and said, "Brother Pei, it has been two Jiazi since the 14th year of Daye. This dragon is so swift that it is naturally not an old beast of 120 years old. Besides, Emperor Yang of the previous dynasty was moved to Leitang, Mingzhou with the emperor's rituals in the fifth year of Zhenguan. Even if there is any resentment, it should have been dissipated." Instead, he said to Chen Xiandeng: "This Emperor Yang is entrusted to him, which is mostly a rumor among the people in the countryside, so he should not be true." He Zhizhang is dissipated by nature and is much more polite to Chen Xiandeng than Pei Min.
Chen Xiandeng quickly crossed his hands and said, "Yes, yes, what He Jian said is, he should be taught." But the boss was dissatisfied.
As everyone spoke, the fishing boats over there had already changed their formation. The original line-up fleet quickly turned from both sides to close into a circle with a diameter of ten feet. Everyone used a pole to lift the fishing net to surround the giant crocodile in the center of Gai. It turned out that the real purpose of these people was to come for this "Black Dragon King", first herd cattle into the water, attract crocodiles, and then slaughter the crocodiles on a large scale. The group of earth dragons here are probably the descendants of the old crocodile. The crocodile has a very sensitive nose and smells the blood of its descendants flowing into the Han River. Then they rushed out from their hiding place to avenge their descendants.
The giant turtle rushed towards the fishing boat in the middle. Everyone hurriedly raised the net to block it. The giant turtle opened its mouth and bit it. The fishing net was woven and it was tearing it continuously. However, the giant turtle was extremely powerful. Although the fishing net was not pulled off, the person who pulled the fishing net could not control it. Immediately, several people fell into the water. The descendants of the giant turtle in the water rushed up to bite. Once the soap-clothed man fell into the water, his offensive and defensive momentum changed immediately. He could not resist for a few seconds and then he was bitten into two pieces or pulled like the bottom of the water. Seeing that the ring array was pulled open, one
The leader Zhang Yuer, who was just here to negotiate, raised his fisherman and swung his croaker. It turned out that the end of the fishing line was not an ordinary fish hook, but an iron mass. Zhang Yuer swung it with great force. The iron mass flew over and hit the end of the crocodile nose with a "pop". The crocodile skin was thick and flesh, but there was no protection of the crocodile at the end of the nose. It was a weakness of the crocodile. Although this attack could not be fatal, it also made the giant crocodile suffer and roared repeatedly. He stopped tearing the fishing net and turned around and rushed towards Zhang Yuer.
After Zhang Yu'er attacked, he pulled up the iron weight again, but the dragon swam very fast in the water. Zhang Yu'er could not swing the rod and threw the weight again. The giant turtle had rushed to Zhang Yu'er's boat in an instant, and jumped out of the water and opened his huge mouth to bite Zhang Yu'er. Seeing that Zhang Yu'er was not enough to resist, the people in the soap-clothed clothes and everyone on the official boat exclaimed together. At this critical moment, he saw the thick man dressed as a woodcutter on the fishing boat on the left side of Zhang Yu'er screaming strangely, and he had already jumped in the air. The giant axe in his hand suddenly slashed at the dragon. The dragon stopped rushing forward. The giant mouth closed in advance and bit off a large piece of wood on the bow of the boat. If it weren't for the woodcutter's attack, he would have bit off Zhang Yu'er's head.
Seeing that the giant axe was no longer slashing downward, but his rush forward was too strong and he could not stop falling on the fisherman's boat. He took the axe and took the power to leap forward and jumped forward to the scholar's fishing boat opposite. However, he was no less than three meters apart from the boat. The woodcutter jumped out of the boat and chopped the head of the turtle for only more than two meters. The power of rushing again was weaker. Seeing that he could not board the boat, the giant turtle had spit out the wood biting into pieces and rushed towards the woodcutter. The giant turtle was tempted in the water, and then arrived first, opening its huge mouth in the water for the woodcutter to fall. The woodcutter could not exert force in the air and was about to die.
At this time, the scholar opposite was trembling with his right hand and flew out flat. The power was well controlled, and he was just under the woodcutter's feet. The woodcutter took this mat and lifted it again, and jumped forward one foot, but it was still one step away from the bow of the boat. The scholar waved his sleeves and brushed the woodcutter's waist. It seemed that this seemed inadvertently, rolled the woodcutter's big and thick onto the bow of the boat. At that time, he jumped up from the woodcutter, slashed the axe, and rose again, and leaped up three times with the feather fan until the scholar brushed it onto the bow of the boat. These few rabbits rose and fell, and the life and death were only between the lines. The two of them were free and scattered, as if they were strolling in the garden. People of all colors on the river couldn't help but burst out with a burst of cheers like thunder.
The dragon's huge mouth closed and only bit a feather fan. It blew its head angrily, spit out a goose feather, and then attacked the scholar on the boat. The scholar stood on the bow of the boat with his hands in his arms, calmly waiting for the dragon to jump out of the water again, waved his sleeves and threw out several unknown things, and hit the dragon's head, making violent explosions one after another. It turned out to be several thunderbolt bombs, hidden in the thunderbolt bombs.
The projectiles were made of saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal, and secretly made of greystone. Once the collision hits a spark, it triggers a fire and a loud noise. Although the Thunderbolt bullet seems to be thunderous and powerful, it actually has no lethality, but the dragon is a wild beast after all, and is due to its physical nature. It is afraid of fire and sound. When I first encountered the Thunderbolt bullet, it only said that it was a Thunderbolt from the sky. It was already jumping in the air, but in a shock, it turned around and plunged into the river again.
The dragon turned around in the water and turned to the farmers. During the previous attacks and defenses, the ships were still shrinking the encirclement of the fishing nets. Therefore, the dragon turned around and was less than five feet away from the farmers. At this time, the farmers had already copied the weapons at their hands. It turned out to be a long-handled sickle. The farmers in the south had to use a long-handled sickle to harvest rice, but the sickle used by the farmers was too long. Not only was the wooden handle ten feet long, but the sickle at the front was also three feet long.
The dragon attacked this way, first approached the water, and then jumped out of the water and launched a surprise attack. However, it was surrounded by a fishing net in a small circle, and all attacks lost their suddenness. When the dragon jumped out of the water again, the giant sickle in the farmer's hand had already been waiting in mid-air. The tip of the sickle pointed directly at the right eye of the dragon. Although the giant shrew was brave, its eyes were the softest part of the body, and it had to avoid it. The giant shrew's head tilted to the left and fell back into the water. The farmer's giant sickle swept across the river.
The giant crocodile jumped out again. Unexpectedly, the farmer turned his wrist and poked his sickle with a sickle. The giant crocodile could not avoid it. He closed his eyes and turned his head. The sickle tip was about inch and stabbed it on his neck, making a sound of metal scratching, and it could not be stabbed. However, the dragon also suffered heavy pain and fell into the water again. When everyone first saw the weapon used by the farmer, they only thought it was a routine of slashing hard. Unexpectedly, the move was so delicate. Both times, they pointed the sickle tip at the crocodile's eyes with the tip of the sickle in the instant when the giant crocodile came out of the water. The accuracy of the grasp was shocking.
In an instant, except for the old master in the middle, the giant turtle had fought with the four fishing and reading, and the four of them were juggling each other. They seemed to have the upper hand, but in fact they could not hurt the giant turtle at all.
The people on the official boat watched the thieves fighting with the dragon, and they unconsciously made the big ship and the fishing boat array closer, less than fifty feet apart. The distance between the thieves Chen said, "It seems that this group of thieves will succeed soon." They were dissatisfied with envy. You must know that this thieves' skin is priceless. If they were hunted by familiar water thieves, then Chen would have to be somewhat filial. However, he did not recognize any of the people, so he naturally could not get a share of the pie. He was determined to wait for the other party to succeed and go up and cheat. However, seeing that the other party had many people and the bandit leader was so brave, he was afraid that he would not get the cheaper. There were also He Zhizhang and a Shangguan like Pei Min on the boat. I am afraid that Lao Chen would not be able to eat this fat bite.
