Chapter 285 Response

After King Xu Jiao laughed dumbly, he observed the wind direction, ordered the sails to be raised, and tried his best to break out of the encirclement.

Now that he knew the direction of the breakout, Zhang Xiaohua could no longer worry about other things. The entire giant boat was in a state of panic.

King Xu Jiao's sailors were also battle-hardened. After a period of confusion, order was gradually restored. Before leaving, Jing Lao Er looked at Zhang Xiaohua with a complicated expression, but in the end he did not lower his face and said anything.

Qin Shiyue stared at Zhang Xiaohua for a long time, making his hair stand on end. Then she said, "If something happens later, just follow me."

Zhang Xiaohua almost fell to the ground after hearing this. Is this concern or a warning?

However, Zhang Xiaohua certainly knew that Master Qin was an important figure protected by King Xu Jiao, so it was natural to follow him. Zhang Xiaohua nodded and agreed with a smile. Qin Shiyue walked back to the lobby on the first floor, and everyone else followed behind, full of doubts.

In fact, no one believed Zhang Xiaohua when she said she felt there was a ship behind her. They are all people with profound internal energy. They use their internal energy in their eyes and can see more than ordinary people. But in this dark night , the stars and the moon are gone, how can you get the inner strength? But the facts proved that what this young man said was true, and it was the six ships they said, one was not too many, and the other was not too few! They really wanted to ask in detail how this young man knew, but they still didn't quite believe what Zhang Xiaohua said. Based on their feelings, this might be a cover-up, but Zhang Xiaohua was the one Qin Shiyue wanted to bring back Tianlong. Qin Shiyue didn't speak, and they didn't dare to ask directly.

You think Qin Shiyue didn't want to ask. He was also extremely curious. But on the one hand, he knew that Zhang Xiaohua was extremely tight-lipped. Even torture such as the soul search hand forced him to speak. If Zhang Xiaohua didn't want to talk, he might be afraid. He couldn't be allowed to speak. Besides, people said he was relying on his feelings and obviously didn't want to say anything. Why should he bring trouble to himself? On the other hand, the soul-searching hand he pointed at Zhang Xiaohua just now was done with anger. The strength, speed and angle were all top-notch. It was not something that ordinary people could avoid. In his impression, , this little flower must have fallen in response to the pointing, but unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaohua avoided it easily. This avoidance shocked him more than Zhang Xiaohua's knowing that there were pursuers behind him. For a moment, he didn't know what to do next. He seemed to be a little unable to imprison Zhang Xiaohua, so , he just stared at Zhang Xiaohua for a long time, and then he said something that was both relief and appeasement.

Zhang Xiaohua didn't care, he wasn't going to run away now. The vast sea asked him to go where? What he understood was Earth Escape, not Water Escape, and he hadn't fully understood it yet. Qin Shiyue, in his eyes now, is not an insurmountable mountain. Since there is no fear in his heart, he naturally feels very relaxed.

Zhang Xiaohua sat on a chair in the hall, hiding in a corner. He wanted to find a dark place, but the hall was lit up and it was very bright. King Xu Jiao politely asked Qin Shiyue's idea there. Shiyue said unceremoniously: "King Xu Jiao, this is Qin's first time going to sea on a boat. If there is anything you can suggest, you should give orders according to your own ideas."

King Xu Jiao smiled and said: "I understand Master Qin, please rest assured. This is not the first time that the ships of Jiao Palace in the South China Sea have been attacked at sea. We have prepared a lot of offensive and defensive plans. Jing Laoer is also an old expert. Please Do not worry."

"Respect the second child? Ahem!" Qin Shiyue was speechless.

King Xu Jiao seemed to know that he was talking too much, so he held up his hands and said, "Master Qin, do you want to stay in this hall, or go outside to take a look? If you want to watch the battle, we can go to the platform on the third floor of the cabin, where the view is better. However, there will probably be fighting soon, which is very dangerous."

Qin Shiyue was overjoyed after hearing this and said: "King Xu Jiao knows my heart very well. I just want to see what this naval battle will be like. What is this danger? Aren't we people in the world just living a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife? ?”

Xu Jiaotong next to him said anxiously: "Master Qin,

This naval battle is no better than a battle in the rivers and lakes, so it is better to be careful. "

Qin Shiyue disagreed, and King Xu Jiao also comforted him: "It doesn't matter, Mr. Qin is very powerful in martial arts. This naval battle is all about long-distance attacks. Besides, we are one against six and can only run away. How can we dare to get entangled? Just be careful and you are not afraid. of."

Above the cabin, the platform on the third floor is very wide. The sea breeze is roaring and the drizzle is drizzling, making people almost unsteady. However, everyone is not an ordinary person, and they can stand firmly with a little luck.

It is true to stand high and look far. Everyone stood high and looked far away. When they saw the situation in front of them, they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. The six ships surrounding them were forming a siege and were catching up from behind. The fast ships beside them were already on a level with the giant ship. Moreover, looking at the lights moving far away, it was obviously faster than the giant ship. After seeing this situation, the experienced Sanhai and Qishui already knew that this ship must belong to the navy. , only the government's standard sea-going ships can be a few points faster than the sea-going ships of Nanhai Jiao Palace.

King Xu Jiao estimated the situation and then sent an order, asking the sailors to go all out and rush forward as fast as possible. If they could break out of the siege, they would still have some chance of survival. Once they were surrounded, the situation would be dire. It’s hard to say.

At this moment, several huge flashes of lightning appeared in front of their eyes, and then they heard several muffled thunders "click, click, click" above their heads. Everyone was startled, but King Xu Jiao looked happy and shouted: "The sky will not stop me." .”

Qin Shiyue was puzzled and asked: "The weather is getting worse and worse, and it is difficult for the boat to sail. Why does King Jiao say this?"

King Xu Jiao pointed at the surrounding warships and said with a smile: "Master Qin, I don't know something. Didn't I tell you when I first went to sea? The most fearful thing on the sea is the wind and waves. Only giant ships can remain stable." , although the naval ships are also big, they are much smaller than ours. The wind and waves are still small now, and they have little impact on the stability of the enemy and our ships. There was thunder just now. Looking at this celestial phenomenon, it is estimated that there will be a thunderstorm soon. , The bigger the storm is, the greater the impact will be on the navy’s ships, and we will have a chance to escape.”

Qin Shiyue understood instantly, pointed at the night sky and said: "Then, let the storm come more violently."

As soon as he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning struck directly above him, making everyone tremble.

Of course, Zhang Xiaohua was more afraid. This guy quickly took back his spiritual consciousness and never dared to leave his body again. If the thunder was attracted at this time, would he be killed by the blast?

As expected, the sailors of Nanhai Jiao Palace were not alone. Except for the driver of the giant boat, they were all trying to speed up in the cabin below the deck. The others all had bows and arrows in their hands and stood lined up on the deck, all facing each other. Facing the sea, they all stood solemnly, letting the rain wet their bodies without moving at all.

Zhang Xiaohua stood on a high place, looking at this posture, he was also shocked in his heart. In his eyes, the sailor's martial arts was now considered low, but with so many people standing together, he couldn't resist the intimidating momentum. Yes, if I face them, even if I kill a few people, I will probably be killed by the remaining people. The best result is that I can use Qinggong to escape. Then, think about the bandits in Xicui Mountain. , which is really far different from this trained sailor.

At this moment, a thought flashed in Zhang Xiaohua's mind, the sailors in Jiao Palace in the South China Sea are so powerful, but what about the sailors on the ship on the other side? They have received formal military training, wouldn't they be more powerful than the Nanhai Jiao Palace? Zhang Xiaohua sighed, no wonder King Xu Jiao ran away passively and did not actively challenge. Not only was the quantity of his men insufficient, but the quality might not be able to catch up.

While Zhang Xiaohua was thinking secretly, the heavy raindrops and strong storm had come, and the giant boat was shaking more violently than before. Especially since Zhang Xiaohua and others were standing at a high place, it was easier to become unstable. Xu Jiaotong's martial arts was a little weak, and she was almost thrown off by accident. Qin Shiyue quickly persuaded her to go down. Xu Jiaotong really didn't want to leave her lover at this juncture, but she knew that if she were here, Qin Shiyue would be even more distracted. , I had to warn him for a while and returned to the hall.

Qin Shiyue looked at Zhang Xiaohua and opened her mouth to say something, but seeing Zhang Xiaohua standing firm as a rock, she sighed and looked forward again.

At this time, the wind and waves were strong, and the giant boat could not help but swing from side to side, and it also undulated forward and backward. The speed obviously slowed down. But looking at the navy ships in the distance, they looked even worse. At first, there was already one ship that was almost keeping pace with the giant boat. , but now it lags far behind.

In this way, seven huge ships were chasing each other in the dark, almost evenly matched.

However, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and misfortunes and misfortunes can happen to the ship. Just when everyone felt that escape was in sight, they heard a soft "click" and a mast broke off behind them. Qin Shiyue was hitting the platform in front of him. Before Qin Shiyue could make any move, King Xu Jiao jumped up, raised his palms, and hit the mast directly. The heavy mast fell diagonally. next to.

As soon as the mast arrived, the speed of the giant ship suddenly dropped. King Xu Jiao said with a worried look on his face: "Sails are usually furled when sailing in strong winds and waves, so as to reduce the impact of wind and waves on the ship. The direction in which we broke out just now happened to be downwind, so the old man let the sails go We got up so we could use the wind to escape, but unexpectedly the wind was too fast, our ship is so big, even the mast was broken, this is not good."

Qin Shiyue wondered: "Since our mast can break, isn't it true that the navy's mast is also average?"

King Xu Jiao smiled bitterly and said: "Their ship is small, the sail is also small, and the wind force it eats is naturally small, but the mast is not necessarily thinner than ours, and it may not break."

Qin Shiyue also sighed and stopped talking.

Sure enough, as soon as the speed of the giant boat slowed down, the surrounding navy ships caught up with it. The ships also changed their strategy. Instead of covering from all sides, they instead charged straight at the giant boat from the side. They must have known that the giant boat was already approaching. If you can't afford to run, prepare for a quick fight.

Looking at the ships getting closer and closer, Qin Shiyue smiled and said: "King Xu Jiao, it seems that we are going to have a tough battle. I wonder how sure we are."

King Xu Jiao thought for a while and said: "Master Qin, the standard for this navy's standard sea-going ship is eighty to one hundred people per ship. These six sea-going ships should have six hundred people. On our giant ship, When I arrived, I brought 160 people with me, and I left nearly 80 people on the other ship the day before yesterday. This total of only 240 people, how could it be their opponent? There was no 40% certainty. "

Speaking of this, King Xu Jiao pondered: "However, this naval battle does not necessarily rely on numbers. If we fight against any ship alone, we are 100% sure, but their naval forces have always been We are well-trained, and I’m afraid they won’t give us this chance.”

Hearing this, Qin Shiyue's eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "King Xu Jiao said this, I feel a little confident."

King Xu Jiao said in confusion: "Lord Qin, teach me."

Qin Shiyue pointed to the six sea ships and said: "I think that even if the navy is from Jingyue City, it may not be genuine, or it may be that it is entirely the original navy on the sea ship. I'll wait. Although Murong Jian was killed in Jingyue City, he was just a small commander. The reason why we left was just because we were afraid of his seventh uncle. Although the garrison in Jingyue City is the highest officer, he may not be able to completely Mobilize the navy in Jingyue City, and based on Qin’s judgment, the navy that is chasing us has the intention of the Lord Guard, and more likely the intention of the Righteous Alliance."

King Xu Jiao and others nodded.

Qin Shiyue continued: "If this is the case, it must not have been personally ordered by General Lu of the navy. The navy on this ship may not be, no, definitely not standard, and certainly not fully equipped."

King Xu Jiao clapped his hands and said: "In other words, their training on sea-going ships is definitely not as smooth as before. At this distance, we can take the opportunity to kill a sea-going ship, seize the ship, and escape?"

Qin Shiyue smiled and said: "King Xu Jiao, this is not your style. Why do you always want to escape?"

King Xu Jiao smiled bitterly: "Master Qin, you are the special envoy of the Divine Religion. If anything goes wrong in the South China Sea, the Three Seas Jiao Palace will not be able to bear it."

The dragon kings from the other two seas nodded together.

Qin Shiyue said: "King Xu Jiao has good intentions, and Qin understands it, but if you just want to escape, you may not be able to escape. Qin thinks that it is better to concentrate your forces first, kill two sea ships, and fight them face to face." , Our brothers are all Jianghu people, and their martial arts skills must be higher than those of officers and soldiers. Although they have more people than us, we may not lose if we actually kill them."

Seeing Qin Shiyue's decision, the Three Seas Jiao King and the Qishui Gang leader looked at each other and nodded. The brave will win when they meet on a narrow road. At this time, the eternal truth is that if you just think about escaping, you may not be able to escape?

So, King Xu Jiao ordered to furl the sails, turn the bow, and ram the ship that was rushing toward them with all his strength!
