The reason is very simple. When there was a dispute on the island, the people on the many boats around the empty island lost their patience—the people on the island have already started to compete for treasures. Who is in the mood to participate in some boat fights outside the island?By the time the arena is decided and who can enter the empty island, the people on the island will have already grabbed the things!
None of the people who were fighting wanted to fight Mingjiao to the death. They had only one purpose, which was to break through Mingjiao's blockade, snatch the sampan on Mingjiao's warship, and then rush to Sunken Island to seize the treasure.
After all, people like Yan Qing and Bai Sheng are very rare phenomena. Yan Qing obeyed Lu Junyi's order and no longer wanted to go to the island, while Bai Sheng took one step at a time and thought twice before acting.
But other martial arts people will not be like Yan Qing and Bai Sheng. Seeing countless people rushing aboard Mingjiao warships, they want to fish in troubled waters. Dare to say that you can't get a share?
Assuming that this hollow island is a mountain of gold, it would be good for others to pick up some pieces of pieces if others take them in pieces!That's right, the big gods can eat meat, and the little gods can eat bones. Can't we small fish and shrimps follow suit?
Seeing this scene in Bai Sheng's eyes, he was a little more puzzled. Are these martial arts characters all idiots?There is only one Hetu Luoshu on the island, is it your turn to get it?Even if the pie falls from the sky, it won't hit your heads, so what are you doing so happily?
Because I didn't understand, I remembered to ask the boatman on the neighboring boat, what treasures are there on the island that makes these martial arts people flock to them?
The martial arts figures on the neighboring boat had already rushed out, leaving only the boatman who was a genuine waterman, but the boatman said he didn't know, not only he didn't know, even the heroes on his boat didn't know what was on the island.
According to the boatman, his ship has been here for a day and a half, and the people on his ship only came to see what happened when they heard that the Demon Cult had sealed off Xingkong Island.
It was only then that Bai Sheng realized that it was so!It turns out that no one has spread the story of Hetu Luoshu to the world, the reason why these martial arts figures gather here is entirely because of Zhong Xiangfeng Jiang.
Most people have a habit, that is, the more things you don't let me see, the more curious I am.Originally, this empty island is an island in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. If there is no one to block it, then people who pass by this island will not go up to check it out, but if you block it, it will be different. What treasure is worth blocking an island? stand up?
In addition to the above-mentioned habit, people have another habit, that is, they like to watch the excitement, not knowing what is going on, as long as they see a group of people gathered somewhere, they will inevitably have the urge to step forward to find out.
Adding these two habits together, plus Mingjiao's blockade of the empty island for three months, how can it not cause a commotion and everyone knows about it?
After thinking about this, Bai Sheng knew why these mediocre martial artists rushed forward desperately. In a word, curiosity killed the cat.
It's just that when he figured it out, he found that among the tens of thousands of martial arts figures, there are really hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and there are endless masters. First of all, he saw Wanyan Zongwang leading a group of people directly over the Mingjiao warship, flying across the sky. At the same time as the warship, he sent out a subduing dragon palm, slapped the prepared planks into several pieces, and then threw those planks into the river near the shore.
This method is exactly the same as Wanyan Jiamu's method of dismembering Huang Feidian's claws and using the decomposed horse carcasses as footsteps a few days ago.It's just that Wanyan Zongwang sent out a huge number of wooden planks, apparently as a stepping stone for his colleagues.
At the same time, he also saw Yelu Dashi, and Yelu Dashi was even more exaggerated, silently clapping his palms to the outer side of a Mingjiao warship. The two warships that were slowly separating quickly passed through the gap.
After Yelu Dashi, another old voice said, "Teacher, why don't you and I go up to see the excitement?"
Following the sound of this old voice, two figures, one large and one small, suddenly rose from a small boat. The larger figure held the smaller figure under his ribs, neither passing over nor damaging Mingjiao's warship, but Walk through the gap between the two warships.
This is true riding on waves!And with someone under his ribs, it seems that lightness kung fu is supreme.
Who is this man?Bai Sheng could hear and see clearly that this person was none other than Zhou Tong, a Shaanxi hero who claimed to be invincible all over the world!
The smaller figure answered immediately, and the immature voice was full of surprise: "Master, your lightness kung fu is so powerful, can you teach it to me?"
This voice was even more familiar to Bai Sheng, it was Yue Fei.
Chapter 723 The fog is heavy
Zhou Tong came, and brought Yue Fei with him, Bai Sheng was very surprised, and felt more and more pressured, this Hetu Luoshu is not easy to get, and there are so many masters here.
Many masters showed their abilities and resorted to various means to rush to the shore of the island. Among these people, Bai Sheng paid special attention to finding the trace of Li Ruolan, but the result of the search was none, and the expected Li Ruolan did not come to join in the fun.
Xiao Feng and Fang Jinzhi interrogated Bai Qin as early as in Yongle City. Bai Qin confessed that he had told Li Ruolan about the matter of the empty sky island in detail. It can be said that Li Ruolan's understanding of the empty sky island is no less than anyone else's, but it is also true. Because of this, it is even more puzzling that she did not appear among the many masters at this time.
"Village Master, what should we do?" Li Jun finally lost his composure and asked Bai Sheng for instructions.
"Go into the water first." Unlike those aggressive characters who ride the waves, Bai Sheng finally chose a low-key way to land on the island. From the underwater to the shore of the island, he should not be intercepted in any way. He didn't believe that Fang La's navy would cruise in deep water day and night, human beings are not submarines after all.
Listening to Yang Yao's ridicule of Yan Qing's words earlier, it seems that after landing on the island, he will be ambushed by the followers of the Ming Cult. own existence.
Since experts from all walks of life are gathering now, why should I expose Xingzang early?Wouldn't it be better to let others hit it first, and quietly approach the underground culvert?That's what fishermen do.
The fight was in full swing in the front, and Bai Sheng gave orders from the back. The seven people sank into the water in the dark, without anyone noticing.
There is no one on the water leading to the empty island, and not all martial arts figures have the ability to pass through the blockade from the water, whether it is stepping across the water or walking on waves, that is the right of the supreme master, Ordinary people can only swim if they don't take boats and sampans, so there are still many people swimming on the water.
Few people in this era know how to play crawl, which is also the freestyle in the later competitions. You can't tell if it's breaststroke with a head exposed on the water, but as long as you use a dog planer, you can be seen , because the dog planer will produce more exaggerated splashes and plopping sound of planing water.
Bai Shengqi and the other planners have nothing to do with them, because they are sneaking under the water.There is almost no light at the bottom of the water at night, but this condition is not difficult for Bai Shengqi at all. Even without relying on Bai Sheng's night vision eyes, these seven people can roam freely underwater.
Bai Sheng could speak underwater, so he instructed six of his men to follow him to the shallow water area in the south of the island, and then floated to the surface to breathe.
Since the blockade on the river is mainly aimed at the ships coming down from upstream, the focus of the battle on the blockade line at this moment is on the west bank of Sunken Island, so at the moment the west line is fighting fiercely, but the south bank of the island is quiet and peaceful. Except for Bai Sheng, almost no one is there. It would be thought to go around a quarter of the island and land from the south.
Bai Sheng didn't go ashore immediately, but soaked in the water to carefully observe the situation on the island. After exchanging a few angry reprimands just now, Lu Junyi and Fang La on the island didn't make a sound anymore, and they didn't even know if they were still fighting. Or someone from both sides has already been knocked down, in short, no movement from them can be heard now.
The monk who didn't know whether it was Lin Lingsu or Gongsun Sheng didn't continue to cast spells. From the beginning to the end, Wulei Tiangang's righteous method was used only once. After Fang La called Bao Daoyi to come to help the battle, there was no more spells on the empty island. What kind of spells of cultivators appear.
Bai Sheng led six of his men slowly approaching the shore in the water, while observing the southwest and southeast directions of the island shore.No one landed from the south bank, which doesn't mean that Fang La will give up the defense of the south bank. What does Yang Yao mean by "going ashore and dying within ten steps"?In this era, there are no mines and there will be no minefields, but why does Yang Yao speak so arrogantly?
The battle situation on the west bank gave the answer. In the field of vision, on the southwest corner of the sunken island, the arrows shot from the forest on the island were like rain. Those martial arts figures who had just rushed to the land from the water were either killed by the arrows. Hedgehogs, either forced to retreat into the water, were indeed unable to rush into the island's woods.
It is conceivable that in the forest, Xiaoyang must be led by Ji Pang Wanchun to form the second barrier of archers.
Bai Sheng estimated the time, seven of himself came here from the West River side of the island, it is estimated that Zhou Tong, Wanyan Zongwang, Lingxing, Yelu Dashi and his group would have already rushed to the empty island, and based on the martial arts of these people However, the bow and arrow formation led by Pang Wanchun cannot be stopped.
Like Zhou Tong and other experts, Bai Sheng was sure that he could break through the rain of arrows and enter the forest, but at the same time he also understood that his six subordinates did not have this strength.
Just when I thought of this, Pang Wanchun's voice sounded in the forest, giving orders: "The archers from the south come to two hundred and reinforce the west!"
Following the issuance of the order, there were footsteps in the forest. Even if Pang Wanchun's men tiptoed, the movement of 200 people could not be hidden from Bai Sheng's ears.
This is a great opportunity!
"Crawl forward, follow me into the woods!" Bai Sheng gave an order in a low voice.
In this era, the word "creeping" exists, but no one except Bai Sheng can understand the meaning of the word "creeping forward".Because people in this era have not experienced war with hot weapons.
It's just that Bai Sheng's example can make the six behind him understand. They found that the village owner was crawling on the beach, so they climbed to the island and the forest on the island together.
Even though [-] archers have just been transferred away, there are still [-] archers waiting in the forest to the south, and their breathing cannot escape Bai Sheng's ears. Bai Sheng judges their positions based on their breathing, and then uses the isolation Wu Chuangong acupointed them one by one.
If he hadn't brought six men over, he didn't need to do this at all, he could also ignore the rain of arrows and rush into the woods like no one else was like Zhou Tong and the others.
"Okay, you can stand up now." The moment he entered the woods, Bai Sheng stood up first.
Standing in the woods in the south of Sunken Island, the situation outside the island and inside the island are like two worlds, with completely different scenes.Looking out from the woods, you can see the beach and river under the starry sky, but if you look into the island from the woods, you can't see anything, because the island is actually covered with fog at the moment.
Is it the miasma formed by natural weather?Or is it the mist released by the trapping island formation mechanism?Or is it the spells cast by the mages on the island like Fan Rui?Can't be sure for a while.
The general map of the trapping island mechanism does not indicate the fog-making function of the large array on the island, but Feng Asan once told Bai Sheng that as long as suitable flowers and trees are used to construct the array, it can be skillfully released. Fog to cover the path in the array.
"Fei'er, don't run around, so as not to run into the trap in this formation by mistake, we are waiting here, no matter what kind of fog it is, as soon as the sun comes out tomorrow, it will dissipate."
Zhou Tong's voice sounded in the distance, earnestly teaching his apprentice Yue Fei, Zhou Tong did not deliberately lower his voice, which shows his confidence - I, Zhou Tong, are in this formation, who dares to do anything to me?
Chapter 724
Zhou Tong's voice spread all over the island, as long as the people on the island can hear it at the moment, Lu Junyi's voice sounded from the northeast corner: "Master, is your old man here?" The voice was full of surprises , but it seems that he did not continue to fight with Fang La.
