Xu Xilou was cruel and ordered the boats to continue moving forward as far as they could, and then put down the boats, only saving people but not the boats. After filling in six boats one after another, there was only ten feet left from the cliff. However,
The closer we get to the cliff, the more ferocious the turbulence in the water becomes. The paddler using all his strength can barely keep the boat on the water. If he relaxes a little, the boat will be lifted off by the underwater undercurrent and hit.
Underwater reef.
Xu Xilou's face turned pale. He felt sorry for the Xu family's ship, and even more distressed that he could not send the armored knights on the ship to the cliff. If it was dawn, all the efforts would be in vain, and it was agreed earlier that these ships would have to take advantage of the night.
When returning to the small market of Tanghe, we must at least stay away from Yinghu Mountain. If we return after dawn and have an unobstructed view of the lake, the water bandits on the mountain will definitely discover us, and all the hard work of the Xu family will be in vain.
Li Luoshang was still calm and composed. This kind of thing should not be rushed. The more urgent it is, the more likely it is to cause trouble. It would be more troublesome if the sunken ship blocked the waterway. Fortunately, the undercurrent swept away the six sunken ships in front. The waterway was not blocked, but it took a little time.
If we delay for a while longer, I'm afraid it will be too late for the Xu family's boat to leave Yinghu Mountain.
The seventh ship sailed into the waterway. Xu Xilou was a little anxious and yelled, urging the sailors to explore the way as soon as possible. If they could get to the bottom of the cliff, they would be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver. Under the heavy reward, there must be brave men, some who had just fallen into the water and were rescued.
Experienced boatmen also grabbed the boat, gritting their teeth and determined to pull the boat over.
Suddenly, two armored knights jumped from a nearby ship to the seventh ship. There was no movement after that, which startled all the boatmen and sailors. They didn't know what the purpose was. Maybe it was to see if they could help.
?Xu Xilou's face changed slightly, and he had the same thought. Could it be that the man was impatient and ordered his officers to board the ship to monitor him.
Li Luo let out a slight sigh, and was quite puzzled, but did not stop him. He said to Xu Xilou harmoniously: "Mr. Xu, don't worry about them. Just follow your own methods. Be careful."
Xu Xilou agreed that this was not the time to be distracted. He raised his hand and pushed hard, and the ship slowly sailed into the waterway that had been more than half explored. The ship came to the location where the last ship hit the rocks and sank. All the people on the ship were
The boatman's hands were sweating, and he was about to test the water. Suddenly, the two armored men moved, and the spears in their hands flew out of the air. They were ten feet away in an instant, and only heard a sound of water coming from the rock wall at the bottom of the cliff.
With the sound of hitting the rocks, two spears stabbed steadily into the rocks. Each spear was connected to an iron rope. The boat swayed slightly with the current, but the iron ropes did not move. They were two feet apart, as wide and narrow as one. In an instant, this
There is an iron cable bridge between the boat and the cliff!
Everyone in the Xu family had never seen such unbelievable kung fu, and their eyes widened in shock. Xu Xilou took a breath of cold air, it was ten feet away, throwing the spear over might be a strong person who could barely do it.
It can be done, but it still has to pierce the cliff. Not to mention the sharpness of the spear, but this arm strength is extremely unusual, and looking at the appearance of the two armored knights, it does not seem to be surprising. Until this moment, Xu Xilou
Only then did he understand where the old man's courage to take this risk came from. Such a heavenly weapon could not really defeat the water bandits in Yinghu Mountain in one fell swoop.
Li Luo was also shocked. Although he guessed that these ghost soldiers brought out from Taixu Illusion Realm must have extraordinary abilities, they were so amazing that he was beyond his expectation. Feng Li let out a low cry, with a look of horror on his little face.
, this kind of skill is definitely not inferior to the first-class masters in the world, and he has thousands of subordinates!
Oh my god, Feng Li called out in a low voice and glanced at Li Luo secretly. It seems that he needs to be nicer to him and respect him more in the future, otherwise he will not get good results.
Xu Xilou was overjoyed when he saw this. In this way, he no longer had to explore the ten-foot waterway under the cliff. He could pass over the iron cable bridge. This would save time and spend less money on shipbuilding. The remaining ships filed in.
When entering, although some crashed into the reef, all the boatmen and sailors were cautious. The hull was damaged, but few of them sank again.
Two iron ropes were hanging in the air under the cliff. As soon as the rear boat came over, the armored knights jumped over the bow of the ship in an orderly manner and came to the ship. Without waiting for Li Luo's order, he saw the armored knights jumping from the deck.
The students tore off three-foot-long wooden boards with their hands, about thirty pieces, and held them among the thirty armored knights. Then they saw these armored knights jumping up the iron rope slowly and quickly, as if they were juggling to the side of the cliff.
Walk forward. The iron rope is only as thick as a finger. These armored knights are walking on flat ground without shaking at all, which surprises everyone in the Xu family. Every few feet, an armored knight puts down a wooden board and pierces the board with sharp blades on both sides.
, nailed into the locks of the iron cables. In the blink of an eye, these two iron cables became a pontoon bridge.
No one expected it to be so simple. It was a little slow at first. After the pontoon bridge was paved, three thousand soldiers arrived at the cliff from the boat in less than half an hour. Before Li Luo boarded the bridge, he expressed his gratitude to Xu Xilou.
At this moment, Xu Xilou also guessed who the man in front of him was. He didn't know what to say. In the end, he just cupped his fists and saluted: "Be careful, sir. The common people are waiting for the generals to report their victory."
Li Luo smiled and said, "Thank you for your work. When we meet again, I will definitely thank the Xu family for their help today. You can go back."
"Farewell, general." Xu Xilou shouted deeply. Li Luo jumped onto the pontoon bridge, and after a few ups and downs, he disappeared under the cliff. Not long after Li Luo landed, a strong force came from the other end of the iron cable, pulling the iron cable.
The last two armored knights jumped down and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
There was no more movement on the lake. If you look hard enough, you will see that there is no one left under the cliff. The guard expert beside Xu Xilou let out a long breath and said in shock: "There is such a powerful force in the world, Master, this is
Mu Tianlang really deserves his reputation."
Xu Xilou felt the same and nodded: "Oh, these water pirates are in trouble this time. We lift anchor and return to the small market of Tanghe under nightlight to wait for good news."
"Yes. Anchor lift!" the man shouted, and the remaining dozen or so ships slowly left the dangerous spot and disappeared into the misty night.
Let's talk about Li Luo and his party, with Su Tan'er leading the way. The road under the cliff should be a waterway washed out by the groundwater of Yinghu Mountain. Autumn is deep and there is less rain. The river bed is exposed, and it is barely possible to stay. If there is a lot of rain in midsummer,
At that time, there was abundant water here, making it difficult for swimming fish to escape. Even the entrance under the cliff would be covered by the rising lake surface, which means that people can only leave in winter and early spring. But it is indeed hidden. If it were not for the Tujia people who have lived here for generations, it would be difficult to escape.
It will be difficult to find such a secret road that can climb Yinghu Mountain.
