I have a fortune book

Chapter 81
At some point, the Qipin county magistrate, who had been on the ship since the beginning, had already stood on the deck and started talking to the imperial swordsman.

The faces of both of them are not young, but under such a big storm, they are not wavering at all.

This is the benefit brought by mana cultivation. Running the whole body and resisting wind and rain are all tricks.

Otherwise, why would one become a family's enshrinement once they enter the Tao, because from the moment they set foot on the Tao, the monks have all kinds of performances that transcend ordinary people.

In the second stage of metamorphosis, he began to completely break away from ordinary mortals. Prolonging life, flying to the sky and escaping from the earth are all common means.

The Taoist official stretched out two fingers, wiped off the dragon's blood on the small black sword, and persuaded: "Peng Yushi, you are not a serious student of Taoism after all, you should go back to your room, and I will be in charge here. Mi Xiaojiao didn't kill him directly, it was already giving Ningjiang Dragon King face."

"These miscellaneous dragons have low intelligence and impure blood, so the Dragon King may not care about it." The censor surnamed Peng did not force himself, his magic power to protect himself was not bad, and he might not be able to survive two moves if he really wanted to fight.

Hearing this, Zhou Bai's heart skipped a beat, a seventh-rank censor in his fifties?It seems that the local inspection censors who have been sent to the prefectures and counties should belong to those who are not reused.

"Brother Zhou, what are you thinking? Standing like a pine and cypress, not afraid of the wind and rain, no wonder you can take the lieutenant with an arrow." At this time, there was a voice of envy and jealousy behind him.

Zhou Bai looked back, and it turned out that Ma Liang was leaning on a wooden chair, trying to see what was going on outside.

Speaking of it, it is obvious that Ma Liang is more robust in appearance. If he puts aside his status as a scholar, he can be said to be a big five and three rough.

But when it comes to body control, Ma Liang can't keep up with Zhou Bai even if he flatters him. The powerful soul power allows Zhou Bai to fine-tune his coordination and body center of gravity.

So in the eyes of outsiders at this time, he is just a pine and cypress, and he is very tough despite the wind and rain.

"You're quite courageous, aren't you afraid of being blown away?" Zhou Bai said with a slight joke.

He didn't dislike Ma Liang's character, he was straightforward and generous, and he should be a hero in the Jianghu.

Ma Liang could only support himself at this time, but he didn't dare to speak harshly, but pointed to the dragon boats in all directions and laughed: "Haha, it seems that the court has been prepared for a long time. I said why every boat has a Taoist official on board. Just to deal with these evil dragons!"

Zhou Bai also looked at the light of Taoism blooming on the dragon boats and smiled. The first Taoist official's attack seemed to be a signal, and then the dragon boats sailing in the Chaotic Jiao Gorge also saw sharp magic weapons appearing one after another. The talisman, the Taoism, and the thunderbolt descended the Jiao.

However, the attack of the dragons did not stop, and the smell of blood stimulated the dragons to become more and more violent.

They roared and rushed towards the dragon boat, as if they were going to take revenge, and the deep bleating of cattle echoed in the huge gorge.

Zhou Bai clearly felt that the water vapor was becoming more and more dense, the dark clouds above his head almost formed a cloud of thick ink, and the gust of wind accompanying the pouring rain obviously brought a bit of stinging pain from shaving.

True dragons can spread rain with clouds and benefit the world. Flood dragons who inherit part of their blood naturally have some ability to control wind and rain.

Seeing those dragons groaning with their heads held high and the wind and clouds changing color, one knows that the rain and wind in the canyon are inseparable from them.

Originally, this storm was just an extremely common celestial phenomenon, but because the Dragon King returned to the Heavenly Court to report on his duties, the deterrent power of the Dragon Palace was weakened, and the dragons in Chaos Jiaoxia wanted to take advantage of this to make trouble.

The evil and violence in that bloodline are fully displayed at this time.

They devour fish and shrimp recklessly, without considering the balance at all. Even the human race, who used to live in peace, wanted to bump into each other.

Seeing that more flood dragons were about to attack the dragon boat, the guards on the boat could no longer sit still, and they also had ways to fight back.

"Shoot the dragon crossbow upwards, be sure not to let a dragon approach!"

"Hurry up, go down and bring someone to fill the hole for me..."

Teams of guards were tied with ropes, carrying out various defensive tasks in an orderly manner. Seeing their calm and calm skills, Zhou Bai knew that these people were not simple.

Not to mention being a serious soldier of the imperial court, he must have something to do with the imperial court forces.

In fact, the dozen or so dragon-shooting crossbows on this ship are all killer weapons, and no one dares to use them without official permission.

It is said that it is a private dragon boat, but it is really completely handed over to the businessman to operate, and the court is not at ease.

swish~
One after another, the crossbow arrows with the thick arms of the children shot into the white waves in the water, making a puffing sound as they penetrated the dragon's body.

Flood dragons are terrifying, and to ordinary people they are invincible monsters, but there are also ranks among the dragons.

Chaotic Jiaoxia itself is the place where the Ningjiang Dragon Palace houses miscellaneous and small Jiao dragons. The Jiaolong here is the lowest rank, not much better than other dragons, and its weak blood even the Dragon Palace does not want to accept it.

Because of this kind of dragon with weak blood, animal nature is greater than rationality, and it is easy to make big mistakes.

They can't be allowed to enter the Tianjiang River and lose the face of the Ningjiang Dragon King, and there is no position arrangement in the Dragon Palace or Heavenly Court, so they can only be confined in the waters of Luanjiao Gorge.

Usually, the Dragon Palace ban is still very deterrent, but it does not rule out that there are evil dragons going crazy, so the dragon boats will be equipped with launching dragon crossbows, using specially-made hundred-forged arrows.

These crossbow arrows break through the scales of the miscellaneous flood dragons easily, as long as they are shot, they will be injured or killed.

The Jiaolong who rushed to the front was seriously injured, and even a few small Jiaolong several meters long were shot and killed on the spot. The corpses of the Jiaolong floated on the water, causing many big fish to fight and bite. Gradually, even the entire Chaotic Jiao Gorge was dyed color.

The guards who controlled the Dragon Shooting Crossbow were extremely proficient, and they also knew how to shoot continuously alternately, almost forming an uninterrupted curtain of arrows, which attenuated even the violent wind and rain.

Occasionally, there are large dragons that are more than ten meters long and 20 meters long, and the Taoist officers accompanying the boat will kill them with precision.

Sometimes when he sees too many flood dragons in one direction, he will throw out all kinds of lethal talismans casually, as if he doesn't want money.

Especially the thunder talisman, which is extremely powerful in the water, can often form a discharge area that no dragon dares to break through.

An hour later, many guards and boatmen were missing in the wind and rain, and several dragon boats were almost destroyed, so they had to stop to repair the leaks.

But the damage to the dragon group was even greater, there were at least twenty or thirty dead dragons, and countless wounded.

It's a pity that the Jiao corpse could not be salvaged in this precarious state, coupled with some taboos, the dragon boat also gave up this precious food and treasure.

It's fine to kill Jiao in self-defense, and Dragon Palace doesn't mind blaming it if it wants to, but if it is dragged away openly, it will not give Ningjiang Dragon King face.

After the bloody fight, the miscellaneous dragons finally settled down a lot. Although they still stared at the dragon boat, they kept their distance.

Even if a large number of fish fled to the vicinity of the dragon boat, no dragon dared to "take food from the tiger's mouth".

In a certain safe environment, the human nature of chasing profit will gain the upper hand, and the boatmen on the dragon boat will pour out of the cabin one after another, casting nets, throwing anchors...

Well, the captain allowed this. The crossbow arrows, hull repairs, and compensation for the guards who died during this journey are all losses.

If you can take the opportunity to catch a fortune, especially the precious Ningjiang perch, you can not only make up for the loss, but even make a small profit.

But when the boatmen excitedly hauled the fishing nets, there were few perch in them. They were cleverly hidden at the bottom of the boat and difficult to catch.

The passengers on the disembarked ship couldn't sit still anymore, especially the passengers on the lower deck. Many of them had the courage to fight for their lives. After the captain signed the "no responsibility" contract, they even jumped off the dragon boat with a rope to catch them.

Even if a bass is sold on a dragon boat, it can be sold for dozens of taels. If it is of good quality, hundreds of taels is not a problem.

People die for wealth, birds die for food, too many people are not afraid of death, but of being poor.
