The small boat that was encircled by the outer circle got turned over by the huge waves, and quite a few of the boats actually hit the reef and sank!
All of a sudden, the river was filled with ghostly wails and wolfish howls, and cries for help could be heard incessantly. Some of them even shouted loudly, their minds exploding:
"Monster!" There are demons in the water … Plop … "Strange …"
The helpless shouts came one after another. This warning sound was so different from the usual ones that it was almost covered up. Only the dozens of people close to him were able to witness the most horrifying scene of their lives!
A huge head floated out of the dark water. The eyes of the head, which was bigger than a washbasin, were rolling. It scared several water bandits to death!
The other bandits were so frightened that they lost their voices. They opened their mouths and opened their eyes wide. They watched in horror as that giant head surfaced with its mouth wide open, revealing its mouthful of white teeth! Sharp, dagger-like teeth!
A fishy smell wafted over!
Immediately, a few cowardly water bandits fainted from fright! At this moment, fainting in the water, wasn't he waiting for death?
The other bandits had no time to worry about it. They could no longer save anyone as they all ran for their lives, swimming desperately towards the shore! Those who encountered the water monster didn't even think about reminding their companions to escape. Instead, they secretly thought to themselves: As long as someone stays behind and fills the stomach of the water monster, they'll be safe!
The water monster did not chase after them. Instead, its eyes darted around and saw that there were still sparks flying from the boat. It held its breath, pouted, and pouted again!
This time, the impact was even more powerful than the previous one, and the amount of water it brought had almost completely extinguished the fire on the deck of the ship.
Ren Zihua climbed up from the deck in a sorry state, he wiped his face and spat a few more times before cursing: "What the hell is that? How could there be no waves at all? " The clothes in his hair were soaked and dripping. This was probably the most embarrassing moment since he was born.
Li Tianquan held his long spear against the deck to stabilize his body. He looked around and said, "It's not like there are no benefits. The fire was put out quite a bit. " There were only a few spots of fire left and smoke filled the air. It must have been because the items that were being burned had been drenched and the fire was big.
A few soldiers who had just been knocked down by the huge wave climbed up from the deck, wiped their faces, and rushed into the burning room with buckets in their hands! The rest of the soldiers quickly got up as well. They grabbed their bows and arrows and continued shooting at the dark river surface!
"Help! Don't shoot! "We're on our own!"
The cries for help rose one after another on the surface of the river. It turned out to be the soldiers that had just been knocked into the water by the huge waves.
Li Tianquan rubbed his forehead with a headache and ordered, "Don't shoot! Grab weapons and stand guard! " He arranged for a portion of his men to release some ropes to fish them out.
The bandit leader saw that he couldn't miss this opportunity and hurriedly whistled, sending out signals and ordering his men to approach the soldiers and fight in the water! It would be best if he could change his clothes and get on board the ship!
In the end, someone swam past the boat he was on. It looked like they were on their own, but they didn't listen to the orders to attack. Instead, they swam towards the shore with all their might!
The bandit leader was furious, he waved his fist, grabbed the other party's collar and dragged him back, cursing angrily: "You're courting death! Why are you running? "
Who would have thought that the one who was running away actually threw his hand away in a ferocious manner and stared at him angrily. Without saying anything, he suddenly sank into the water and sneaked away!
The bandit leader was infuriated! Just as he was about to command the people behind him to stop those who were escaping, his trusted aide grabbed his hand and shouted into his ear: "Boss! Run! There's a water monster! "
What?
Before the bandit leader could reply, he suddenly saw a huge object the size of a small mountain sweep towards them. It smashed their boat into pieces on the spot, and wood chips flew everywhere! The group of water bandits were completely stunned and fell into the water!
The water monster circled the three ships twice, shaking its head and wagging its tail, causing the small boats on the outside to capsize! Everyone smacked into the water!
After these two rounds, the voices on the water surface had lessened, but the noise around the ship had increased. The people on the ship were shouting at each other, tossing ropes to pull people away while asking their names. If anything went wrong, they would be dragged up and tied up.
The bandits could no longer be bothered. They were all scared witless and could only reply with one sentence, "There … There's a monster!"
Hearing his subordinate's report, Li Tiantong frowned slightly and apologized to Lord Ren, "Sir, look …"
"It's fine, I'll go with you."
The two of them went into the cabin that was temporarily cleaned up for interrogation. Seeing that the situation was as reported, the Lord Ren's heart sunk. Li Tianquan's heart skipped a beat as he thought to himself: Not good!
"How many people are still in the water?" He caught one of his men and asked anxiously.
There was a look of shame on his face as he replied, "We have not counted the number of people …"
"Get everyone on deck! Bring all your weapons with you! "
However, Ren Zihua walked quickly towards the guest room on the second floor.
Commander Li thought he was worried about his own son, so he assigned two people to protect him. He was also busy and could not spare any more manpower.
"Ren Ang?" When he opened the door, there was no light in the room. Ren Zihua stood quietly at the door for a moment, then went to find a candle to light it up.
The three of them searched the room, but did not find Little Fatso.
The current Ren Ang —
"Hey, this is a thank you for your help." The little Little Ginseng in the water stuck out its roots and pressed them onto the big fish head. It chanted a few terms and saw a thin green light slowly spread from the roots to the big fish body.
The huge body of the big fish slightly trembled. It seemed to be excited, but it also seemed to be enduring some kind of pain. Its mouth slightly opened as it spat out a bunch of bubbles.
The ship above them quivered from the air bubbles.
The people on the boat felt a slight vibration coming from beneath their feet, and their expressions changed!
"My lord, I'm afraid we've touched a reef!" A subordinate reminded loudly.
Ren Zihua held on to the table, and signaled everyone to hurry up and leave.
Commander Li was so worried that his hair almost turned white.
The anchor of their ship had been broken for some reason, and the ship's hull had drifted down the river for quite some distance. It was dark now, and the situation in the river could not be seen clearly. If the bottom of the boat were to leak, then he would be in big trouble!
The people on the boat immediately got busy. Some of them went down to the bottom of the deck to take a look, while the others were busy packing up. There were even some who were busy fishing for more people.
Ren Zihua walked to the deck, his expression extremely ugly. Li Tiantong did not know what was going on. He looked sideways at the two guards.
One of them stepped forward and cupped his fists: "Reporting to Commander, Young Master Ren is not in the cabin."
Li Tiankong was also shocked. He asked in disbelief, "Are there any signs of enemies invading?"
The guard replied, "Not at all. The doors and windows are still intact, and there are no signs of fighting inside the house. "
Could it be that the devilish brat was hiding by the window and had been washed off the boat by the water? Li Tianquan was silent, and looked at Lord Ren with sympathy. Just as he was about to say a few comforting words, a child's voice suddenly came from the second floor.
"Father is looking for me?"
On the surface of the river not far away from them, a touch of beautiful red tail flapped on the water surface, stirring up small waves. Not far away from the river, a touch of beautiful red tail flapped on the water, stirring up small waves.
