Chapter 110: Heaven and Earth Have Spirits, But Things Are in the Hands of Humans
Yu Sheng followed his words and looked at the extremely lively scene in the distance. After a moment of silence, he said, "This wind is really interesting."
"It's like this world heard the words of help."
She looked away, rubbed her hands in the cold lake water, and said slowly, "Maybe everything really has a soul."
Gu Zhuo admired the moonlight rippling in the lake and said, "The weather is important and indispensable, but it is not everything, because everything depends on human effort."
Yu Sheng didn't say anything.
Gu Zhuo raised his head and looked at the warships speeding on the water. Looking at the fluttering flags of the Qin army, he smiled and said, "I think it is very interesting that the general can encounter such excitement tonight."
Yu Sheng looked at him deeply and said softly, "The world is indeed wonderful."
As she said this, she stood up and put her hands behind her back.
The fluffy and soft pigtail was blown up by the wind.
……
……
The spies of the Southern Qi Secret Service have turned around and retreated.
In order to leave faster, they didn't even dare to look at Wan Shoukang's hateful face. They just silently remembered this deep hatred and waited for a suitable opportunity to take revenge in the future.
Compared with this group of spies from the Secret Service, the killers from Wuyou Mountain are much more indifferent.
Not long ago, the killer who walked out of the mist watched Chen Chi and the other two being sent to the sky hundreds of feet above the ground by Taoism. He had no way of drawing his sword to kill them, so he had to give up.
He returned to his leader's side, without looking at the Qin warship, and asked helplessly: "Boss, what should we do with this job now?"
"Are you an idiot?"
The assassin leader cursed expressionlessly: "Do you even need to ask this? We did receive money, but that money is not enough to confront the Qin Navy head-on, so of course we won't do it."
The killer was puzzled by this and asked honestly, "If the matter is not done, why don't we leave?"
The assassin leader said calmly, "There are differences between the evil and the heretics. The whole world knows that we in Wuyou Mountain are businessmen who do things for money. Now the Tianming Sect is at the forefront and has not retreated. If a fight really breaks out later, they will be the first to be beaten. As long as we don't move, who will have the time to fight us?"
The killer hesitated and said, "But we can't just stand by and watch the show, can we? That's too disrespectful."
The assassin leader said: "Of course it's not to watch the show, it's to watch the people."
"See if what happened tonight has anything to do with the Wan family."
Having said this, he happened to retract his gaze and gave his conclusion without any emotion: "Let's go to Yangzhou City as a guest some other day and ask about the matter clearly."
The killer subconsciously asked, "What do you want to ask?"
"Of course, ask the Wan family."
The assassin leader said indifferently: "Ask them why they want to ruin Wuyoushan's business?"
The killer touched his head and said, "I thought you were going to ask why the wind blew."
……
……
The people from the Nanqi Secret Service left, the seven assassins from Wuyou Mountain also left, and of course Wan Shoukang also wanted to leave.
However, he finally decided to stay.
The moment the mist dissipated over there, everyone could clearly see his figure. This was an indisputable fact.
If he decided to leave in a panic at this time, not only would he fail to change the current situation for the Wan family, it would only attract more suspicion from the Qin military.
Wan Shoukang forced himself to calm down and not be disturbed by the countless gazes. He whispered and quickly gave orders to his subordinates, ordering them to use a certain magic weapon to compile everything that happened here into a message and send it back to the old house in Yangzhou City, so that the head of the family could make preparations in advance to deal with the impending storm.
……
……
The moment he saw the Qin army flag fluttering in the wind, Taoist Changyu knew that things were completely ruined.
According to the intelligence obtained by the Tianming Sect, Xian Yishu should be in his own military camp at this moment, instead of standing proudly at the front of the warship, observing all the changes happening here with cold eyes.
Whether there was a problem with the source of intelligence or the Wan family suddenly changed their minds, they all told the same story.
After tonight, the development of events in Yunmeng Ancient Lake will be directly out of the control of the Tianming Sect, and it is very likely to go in a direction that they least want to see, and at a speed that is madly rushing forward without looking back.
"Stupid, you are really not worthy of being consulted."
Taoist Chang Yu stared at Wan Shoukang's figure several miles away, and his voice was extremely cold: "Prepare to retreat."
The next moment, he suddenly turned his head to look at Chen Chi and the other two who were laughing in the lake to celebrate their escape from death, and angrily said expressionlessly, "Three idiots who didn't even know they were being used."
Having said this, the Taoist waved his sleeves in anger.
The breath of Taoism was born.
There is a connection between heaven and earth.
The ones who felt this most clearly were naturally Chen Chi and the other two who were in the lake.
The lake, which had been tending to be calm after the strong wind, suddenly surged into waves as the Taoist priest Taller waved his sleeves in anger. The lake water, which was soaked in Taoism, carried an overwhelming force that was unstoppable and enveloped Chen Chi and the other two without any hindrance.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, the huge wave that enveloped Chen Chi and the other two seemed to be lifted up by an invisible big hand, and surged directly into the sky at a height of nearly a hundred feet.
Countless lake waters rushed up, and under the reflection of the stars, they finally condensed into a huge water ball.
Chen Chi and the other two were trapped inside and couldn't make any sound.
A huge shadow appeared in Yunmengze.
This shadow covered the sky and plunged the water surface for more than ten miles into darkness, which was extremely majestic.
Taoist Changyu's gaze fell on the speeding warship.
The next moment, the huge water ball began to fall.
A piercing whistling sound followed, the sound of the air being oppressed. The chaotic water surface instantly calmed down, without a single ripple.
Even the water plants hiding in it were broken.
I don’t know how many fish died because of this.
The shadow is shrinking.
It's like an abyss.
Just at this moment, an extremely dazzling white light suddenly broke through the surroundings.
The white light originated from the front of the Qin warship, and it cut through the abyss-like dark shadow like lightning, and pierced directly into the huge water ball, passing by Chen Chi and the other two who were about to die in it, bringing them fresh air and the most precious vitality.
The water ball condensed by the Tianming Sect's Taoism suddenly stopped in mid-air. After a moment of stillness, the entire sphere began to boil restlessly.
A soft sound.
boom.
The water ball exploded.
Under the reflection of moonlight and starlight, the vast lake water turned into more than ten waterfalls of different sizes, pouring down from the night sky dozens of feet high.
Chen Chi and three others were mixed in among them.
It was not until this time that the sharp and piercing whistling sound of the arrows coming out of nowhere finally reached people's ears.
It turned out that the white light was an arrow.
From General Xian Yishu.
The general did not put down the bow in his hand, and his eyes crossed the long distance and fell on Taoist Changyu.
His fingertips fell on the bowstring again, ready to ignore the extremely heavy burden on his body brought by the previous arrow and try to snipe the evil thief.
Before his breath could lock onto the other party, all the people from the Tianming Sect disappeared into the Yunmeng Lake like a dream bubble, as if they had never appeared tonight.
This is obviously also an extremely profound Taoist method.
Xian Yishu frowned.
He put down his longbow and was about to talk to the three deacons of the Sky Patrol when a faint breath suddenly entered his perception.
He turned his head to look in the direction of the Wan family's boat, raised his eyebrows and sneered, thinking, do you think you can't do anything to you if I put down my bow?
Without a moment's hesitation, Xian Yishu picked up an arrow and threw it out without even looking.
The arrow sank into the water without causing any splash, and few people knew that a precious magic weapon was damaged.
"Let the Wan family come to see me."
Xian Yishu sneered and said, "I am really curious now. Why are a group of evil demons gathering in Yunmeng Ancient Lake so busy at night and not sleeping? What are they doing?"
……
……
That dark corner that no one cares about.
Gu Zhuo looked at the general who was displaying his might, and at the miserable Chen Chi and the other two, and sighed with emotion: "It's really not easy."
"It's not easy."
Yu Sheng said: "But he survived after all, which is a good thing."
Gu Zhuo agreed with this view and suddenly changed the subject: "Let's go."
Yu Sheng suddenly asked, "Do you think the excitement tonight is over?"
Gu Zhuo said nonchalantly: "Let's just start."
……
……
Yangzhou City, the ancestral home of the Wan family.
Under the patio, the old woman looked at her nephews and nephews sitting beside her. Seeing their solemn expressions, she couldn't help but frowned.
She said in a cold and sarcastic voice: "Since you are so worried about Shoukang, why do you have to act so nervous here? Wouldn't it be better to just follow him?"
It was quiet.
No one responded.
The head of the Wan family did not want to hurt the relationship, so he took over the conversation and said, "According to the time, the result should be out soon. I believe there will be news soon."
“The evil heretics of the Tianming Cult are unlikely to kill Chen Chi and the other two in order to keep a low profile. They are more likely to imprison them. We will then find an opportunity to rescue them. As long as this is done cleanly enough…”
His voice was calm and slow: "Whether Chen Chi believes it or not, Chaotian Jianque has to accept this favor."
Without waiting for others to speak, the old woman snorted coldly, sighed and said, "I don't want to use these tricks on weekdays because I am used to being upright in my dealings with others. When the Wan family really needs me, how could I not even know these?"
Although this sentence is prefaced with a sigh, it is full of pride, complacency and self-conceit.
Everyone in the Wan family laughed and echoed a few words.
Under the patio, everywhere you look are scenes of loving mothers and filial children.
The old woman was even more proud.
Then she remembered again the words Wan Shoukang had said not long ago.
"If we tell our names, we will all die?"
She taunted with a half-smile, "Now I'm really curious about the names of those two people. I want to meet them and see what kind of names can do such a thing of repaying kindness with enmity."
