Volume 1: Wind Rises in the Mountains and Swamps Chapter 179: Chasing
Lin Yi was on the ship for three days. //*--Greenx-on:色#小￥说&网--
The next day, the two disciples guarding Lin Yi left the cabin exit. Lin Yi knew that the hurdle of boarding the ship was over.
Lin Yi saved Liu Zhi's life. His original intention was self-evident, and they also understood each other tacitly. As for Liu Zhi himself, how he separated from Mengshan was not something he thought about.
It is better to keep a thin line in everything than to face a dangerous cliff with no chance of turning around. Relying on one's own cultivation and acting recklessly is not the way to behave. Otherwise, what is the difference between Lin Yi and those headstrong and reckless men?
There was no one under the cabin during the day, and people brought food and drinks every day. Lin Yi simply hid under the cabin and didn't come out, as if he was not there on the ship.
But someone was thinking about him.
Lin Yi closed his eyes and sat quietly in the cabin below the cabin, enjoying himself alone, deducing the formation refining on the "Xuanyuan Talisman". The movement outside the door made him open his eyes and reveal a smile.
"You brat, you feel so at ease! Why is it so dark here, and you don't even light a lamp!"
Zhen Yuanzi paced and walked over. Before entering the room, he frowned.
"Haha, the Taoist priest came to the humble abode in person, and the flowers are shining brightly!"
Lin Yi stood up with a smile, found a firestick in the corner of the room, and lit the oil lamp hanging on the wall.
The dim light gradually became brighter.
Zhen Yuanzi looked at the house and found that it was indeed simple enough. He looked at the mattress on the ground and sat down cross-legged without being polite. He took out a pot of wine and two wine bowls from his arms.
Seeing Lin Yi sitting opposite with a smile on his face, Zhen Yuanzi held his long beard in his hand and shook his head.
Lin Yi smiled and said nothing, took the wine bottle and filled the wine bowl.
"There's something wrong with you!" Looking at the energetic Lin Yi, Zhen Yuanzi picked up the wine bowl and said thoughtfully.
Lin Yi raised the wine bowl and said, "Thank you so much, Taoist Master, for the wine. Lin Yi drinks first as a token of respect!" After that, he drank it all in one gulp.
Zhen Yuanzi slowly drank the wine in the bowl, his eyes flickered, he stared at Lin Yi and said with a smile: "You are a completely different person than when you just came out."
"Haha, even though I am young, I have been to the execution ground and have experienced life and death, so what can I say?" Lin Yi smiled calmly and filled another bowl of wine for Zhen Yuanzi.
"Thank you so much, Lin Yi, for the Taoist Priest's love and care along the way!" Lin Yi raised his glass of wine and thanked him seriously.
Zhen Yuanzi chuckled, drank the wine from the bowl, looked at Lin Yi meaningfully and said: "This journey is nothing, the old Taoist just thinks that along the way, I am afraid that you, Lin Yi, will have to bear more. !”
"Taoist Master looks up to me!" Lin Yi shook his head and smiled, and started drinking with Zhen Yuanzi.
"Although Elder Meng didn't say anything, his supervision of you is in vain. Why are you still hiding under the cabin? The sea scenery is magnificent. Don't you want to go out and see it?"
Looking at the damp and small room, Zhen Yuanzi asked with some confusion.
"I'm afraid that Elder Meng will be bored with me and throw me into the sea. I'm afraid!" Lin Yi said with emotion as he held the wine bowl.
Zhen Yuanzi's eyes widened and he said: "You are so scared! I can't see that you are afraid of Mengshan." He put down the wine bowl in his hand, looked up at Lin Yi, pondered for a moment, and said: "Are you afraid of Mengshan?" Are you afraid of that person...?"
Lin Yi's eyes flashed, he chuckled, and said, "What do you think, Taoist Master?"
Zhen Yuanzi pondered for a moment, and said with a complicated expression: "The old Taoist has long known that the Tianlong Sect has a very deep foundation, but he did not expect that there is such an ordinary existence in Jiulong Mountain, which makes people look up to the mountains! Don't say it's you, I, the old Taoist, I’m afraid! After traveling around the world for many years, the old Taoist has been called a living god. Haha! Now I realize that I am just a frog in the well. Such a person is enough to conquer all the sects of Dashang!”
"It's not one, it's four." Lin Yi said softly.
Zhen Yuanzi's eyes suddenly widened, his face full of shock. He looked at Lin Yi in disbelief, leaned over and lowered his voice and said: "How is this possible? How do you know this? Have you seen it?"
Seeing Zhen Yuanzi's expression, Lin Yi was not surprised, thought for a while and said, "I also learned about it accidentally, but I have never met."
Zhen Yuanzi stared at Lin Yi for a while, slowly closed his half-open mouth, nodded and said: "With Baiyun Guan as a vassal, in exchange for this opportunity to go to sea, it seems that it is worth it! The old Taoist understands …”
The overseas channels of Tianlong Sect are inseparable from those Supreme Elders. Therefore, Lin Yi did not want to ask more about what Zhen Yuanzi understood.
There wasn't much wine in the jug, and after a while the two drank from each other, the jug was empty. When Lin Yizheng was thinking about whether to take out the wine he had hidden, the sound of rapid footsteps and shouts suddenly came from the cabin above his head. The two people in the hut both looked puzzled. After exchanging glances with each other, Zhen Yuanzi simply stood up and said, "I don't know what happened. Just take a look and you will know."
There was no movement behind him. Zhen Yuanzi turned around and asked in surprise: "Aren't you going to take a look?"
Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, nodded, stood up and followed Zhen Yuanzi out.
As soon as I stepped out of the cabin, the clear wind blew in my face, which was refreshing. As soon as Lin walked onto the deck, he saw that the boat was full of people. They were leaning against the side of the boat, facing the distance, and talking loudly. In the attic at the stern of the ship, there were also some people standing condescendingly.
Lin Yi followed Zhen Yuanzi, approached the side of the ship, and looked back. What he saw in front of him made his heart tremble.
The vast sea was endless. Looking far away, the sky and the sea were connected, as if the world had become an ocean. The huge ship was like a lone boat in the vastness.
The indescribable shock made Lin Yi marvel at the vastness of the sea and the momentum that embraced the world.
Before he could feel too much emotion, Lin Yi looked behind the ship and knew the reason why the disciples on the ship were in a panic.
In the distance, as if at the end of his sight, two ships appeared. The two ships were small and appeared from time to time. They were obviously ships traveling with the wind.
For Lin Yi, who was unfamiliar with the sea, he could not see how far the two ships were from here. It was just the expressions of the disciples on the ship that made him feel that all this would not be so simple.
"Ten miles southwest..." A voice sounded above his head. Lin Yi looked up and saw that there was someone on the top of the mast, looking up.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, making it difficult to distinguish between east, west, south and north. At this time, Lin Yi realized that the ship was heading northeast. The people on the boat shouted and raised a few smaller sails, obviously intending to get rid of the boat behind.
The wind became more and more violent, blowing up the sails and pulling the ship forward.
The huge ship was no longer as stable as before in the ups and downs of the sea. It trembled, split the waves and rushed forward. The two ships in the distance were still steadily behind, and the speed seemed to be faster. I am afraid that it would not take a few hours to catch up.
Except for the mysterious Elder Jiang who did not show up, almost all the other people on the boat rushed to the deck. There were about sixty or seventy people. This should be all the people of the Tianlong Sect who were far away this time.
And the men who steered the boat were dark-skinned and agile. They should be people who have been sailing for many years. It can be heard from the words that these are disciples of the Tiger Shark Hall of the Tianlong Sect. No one was panicked by the boat chasing behind.
After enjoying the sea breeze on the deck for a while, Lin Yi declined Zhen Yuanzi's invitation and went back to his cabin under the cabin. Although he had been out to sea for three days, he had just started the journey for the endless sea, and he didn't want to get involved.
...
At midnight, the wind was even stronger, and the ship was rocked back and forth as if by a hand, swaying non-stop, making people feel uneasy. Perhaps it was the impact of the wind and waves, and there was a creaking sound from the deck. Hearing it, Lin Yi's scalp was numb, as if the ship was about to fall apart at any time.
This was the first time Lin Yi encountered such a situation, and he could no longer sit still. He ran out of the hatch and was poured by a wave. He wiped the seawater off his face, and saw heavy rain. On the mast, bow and stern, several wind-killing lanterns had been lit, and in the flickering lights, figures on the deck swayed.
Waves hit the bow one by one, splashing a wave one or two feet high, and hitting the deck hard. The ship seemed to be roaring, struggling, and running on the dark sea.
The bumpy ship and the strong wind and waves made the disciples on the deck fall down, and they struggled to get up and hold on to the ropes on the ship tightly, shouting and cursing loudly.
In such a fierce wind and waves, everyone is so helpless and insignificant.
"Ka La La -"
A flash of lightning cut through the night sky. A hundred feet away, the figures of the two ships also flashed away.
"Catch up..." The howling of the disciples on the ship was instantly drowned by the wind and rain.
Lin held the side of the ship with one hand and stood very steadily. His whole body was soaked by rain and sea water. He naturally saw the two ships that caught up. At this point, the intention of the ship was obvious. The other party must have known the whereabouts of the Tianlong Sect on the sea and followed it all the way.
These fellows in the rivers and lakes are persistent in the Tianlong Sect's trip. I just don't know how the two sides will compete on this stormy sea.
Staying in that small cabin without sunlight was really unsettling, so Lin Yi simply stayed by the side of the ship and did not return. The situation on the deck was bad, but it was easy to get away if something happened. He was not good at water, so it was normal for him to think so.
Two hours later, the rainstorm stopped, but the wind continued to blow, and the night was gone in the whistling wind.
As the sky gradually dawned, the two ships behind finally caught up. One of the ships was already parallel to the ship of the Tianlong Sect. The two ships were only twenty feet apart and could see each other clearly.
On the bow of the ship, there was a circle of giant crossbows, which was obviously well prepared. Perhaps because they caught up with the Tianlong Sect, dozens of strong men on the bow were shouting happily.
An old man in his fifties or sixties with a long beard, surrounded by several people, walked up to the bow with a laugh, looking quite proud. On the Tianlong Sect side, of course, they were on full alert. Meng Shan also took a few people and walked onto the platform at the stern.
"Old Bian, don't keep pestering me! Otherwise, disaster will come!" Meng Shan breathed out, and his voice sounded like thunder.
