Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 179 The Immortal Builds a Boat

 “Monster!”

The moment they saw the fish demon jumping out of the water, many nearby villagers were horrified. The cliff was in chaos for a while. It wasn't until the fish demon was killed by Chen Mu with one blow that some nearby villagers barely recovered from the shock and trembling. Come to your senses.

But because the cliff was too narrow, there were still a few people standing on the edge. They were so squeezed that they suddenly lost their footing and slid down the steep **** into the flood below. There were continuous screams and calls for help. , a complete mess.

 “Quiet!”

At this moment, Chen Mu's voice sounded, drowning out all the chaos.

Several wooden branches peeled off from the box board appeared between his fingers. They flew out from his fingers and nailed several fallen villagers' raincoats one after another to stop their falling. .

The few villagers who were saved from falling into the flood still showed frightened expressions, while the villagers on the cliff kept silent, and everything fell silent for a while.

 “Don’t panic, don’t make a fuss.”

Chen Mu spoke in a deep voice to the villagers on the hillside. There was a sense of intimidation in his voice, which overcame the panic in the hearts of the villagers. It also reminded many people of Chen Mu's previous scene of dealing with Bao Yinlin. For a moment, it was even more... Don't dare to act rashly.

Seeing that the situation was back under control, Chen Mu said in a deep voice: "The monsters in the water will be dealt with by their own officials. Those who make noise will be punished afterwards!"

 A mere monster is nothing, but if all the villagers on the hillside get into chaos and people slip and fall into the water from all directions, it will be a big trouble for him, and he may not be able to deal with all aspects.

At this time, there was a hint of thunder in Chen Mu's words. The shocked villagers calmed down. Old man Zhao and his granddaughter Hong'er beside them also trembled slightly and did not dare to say a word.

Chen Mu stopped talking to the many villagers and stood directly on the edge of the cliff, staring down at the water below.

 

Suddenly, another monster rose from the water, this time it was a snake monster with blue scales all over its body, as thick as the mouth of a bowl, two or three feet long, and it moved very fast, as fast as lightning, and it suddenly moved towards the edge of the cliff closest to it. One of them bit into it, trying to bite it in one bite and then drag it into the water to eat it.

But before it could bite someone, another stone came through the air with a lightning arc. With just one blow, its head was shattered. The huge snake body suddenly flew sideways and fell into the sky far away. In the water, it disappeared.

Although the nearest villagers were also frightened this time, they were no longer in chaos like before, crowding and trampling each other. There were also children who screamed in terror, but their mouths were immediately covered by adults who reacted next to them.

 “The breath in the water is still unclear...”

 Chen Mu looked at the water and whispered in his heart.

His Xunfeng artistic conception has entered the second step. Qiufengjue's perception is extremely sharp. Within a radius of ten feet, he can clearly capture even the slightest movement of the wings of mosquitoes and flies, but the underwater part is It was very blocked immediately, and only when the monster jumped out of the water could its movements be captured immediately.

If he mastered the artistic conception of Kanshui, then his perception of the water would be very clear. However, he still chose to practice Genshan first. After all, he had to do it step by step and could not achieve it overnight.

 After pondering for a while.

Another monster jumped out of the water, but this time it barely managed to fly out of the water. Before it could eat anyone, its skull was shattered by a stone thrown by Chen Mu, and it fell back into the water again. With the blood stains spreading rapidly, it disappeared into the distance. .

This repeatedly, almost half of the time, Chen Mu successively killed seven or eight monsters. On the vast endless water in the distance, a black shadow finally appeared.

 Wait until the black shadow approaches.

But I saw it was a canoe.

There were multiple figures standing on the canoe, including a white-robed guard from the Demon Slayer Division, a Qianhu from the Supervision Department, and a Deputy Chief of the Demon Slayer Division. He was a man with big ears and a bit of majesty, but he was Xu Hongyu’s third uncle Yu Jun.

During last year's drought and demon chaos, when Chen Mu followed Xu Hongyu to slay demons in Anyu County, Yu Jun was still his immediate boss, responsible for the dispatch of the entire Anyu County. But now, less than a year later, during the tide disaster, Qing Dynasty All government officials in the Pinghe River Basin are under his control, including Yu Jun, who is in charge of this generation and is also one of his subordinates.

at this time.

Many officials from the Demon Slayer Division and Supervision Division on the canoe had already noticed the crowd on the hillside, and soon noticed the figure on the edge of the cliff.

 “There are really people alive.”

“Well, I didn’t expect there to be quite a few people there. No wonder Mr. Chen sent out a sentry order.”

The white-clothed guards each spoke in a low voice.

At this time, Yu Jun was also looking at Chen Mu's figure from a distance, but he was sighing in his heart. Although when he was in Anyu County, after knowing that Chen Mu had mastered the artistic conception, he felt that Chen Mu must not be an ordinary person in the future.

But even so, he never expected that in less than a year, Chen Mu would become the director of the Supervisory Department and the Demon Slayer Department. Instead, he would become his immediate boss, and even single-handedly become the director of the Supervisory Department. Yun, the He family, which has been fighting with the Yu family for who knows how many years, will be destroyed!

soon.

Yu Jun and others came to the foot of the hillside.

 “Lord Du Si!”

Many people from the Demon Slaying Department and the Supervision Department saluted Chen Mu, including Yu Jun, who did not express any concern.

However, Chen Mu didn't wait for anyone to take action, and immediately interrupted: "In emergencies, there is no need to salute... How are you doing all the way here?"

An Inspector Qianhu replied to Chen Mu: "Sir, the entire eastern region has been flooded. There are no residential buildings and no living people. There were many monsters attacking us along the way, but they were all repelled."

 Thousands of households here reported the situation.

Over there, Yu Jun also glanced at the people on the entire hillside, but for a moment he frowned slightly.

The impact of tidal disasters is not only floods, but also monsters in the water, and earth turmoil that may occur at any time. Let alone ordinary people, even their team, which is absolutely elite, encountered a lot of troubles along the way.

It seemed to him that it was almost impossible to rescue such a group of thousands of victims. After all, the canoes they were riding in could only carry a dozen people at a time. As for bringing in more boats, it was impossible. The current was so turbulent that the big boat could not be controlled at all. Only elite warriors like them could use their strength to control the canoe and cross the water.

 I don’t know what Chen Mu’s plan is.

While Yu Jun was thinking, Chen Mu had listened to Qianhu's report. After nodding slightly, he said: "You all come up and guard this place. Don't let the monsters hurt anyone. I'll send these victims away."

 Hearing Chen Mu’s words, some of the men and horses from the Demon Slaying Division responded to their voices.

 However, there were also Yu Jun and others, who each showed hesitant expressions.

“Sir, our small boat can carry at most ten people at a time. It will take at least half an hour to sail out of the flooded area, and it will take an hour to get back and forth. I’m afraid this is a bit..."

Not to mention that this small boat requires at least three or four Yijin Realm warriors to control it in order to travel in the turbulent water. Even if Chen Mu could control this small boat by himself and bring more than a dozen people at a time, it would still be difficult to control it. Dozens and nearly a hundred trips.

 It takes too long.

Mainly for the sake of these thousands of young and old, this group of elite troops stationed here for ten days and a half is not a very wise decision, because there is also a shortage of manpower in the periphery. With more elites, they can control more areas. Even if there is a demon disaster in the area, there will always be many victims saved.

From Yu Jun's point of view, with such a troublesome group of villagers, most of them young and old, it would be better to just give up, or simply save some of the young children and put more manpower and energy into dealing with the demon disasters outside the flood.

However, this tide disaster is not the last drought in Anyu County. He is responsible for the deployment. Instead, Chen Mu, the Dusi, is responsible for the deployment of troops in the two counties in the Qingping River Basin. He is only in charge of Chen Mu. Subordination that obeys orders.     “It doesn’t matter.”

 Chen Mu listened to Yu Jun's words and spoke calmly.

Yu Jun hesitated for a moment, but still obeyed the order without any further dissuasion. In his opinion, more than a thousand villagers were nothing but a trivial matter. Even in the outer area, there were some casualties. Even if Chen Mu had made a decision and planned it, it would not matter. The problem is, at best, just a few more victims dying, which is nothing.

And it is not meaningless for this group of people to stay here. At least if there is an eruption of the earth veins nearby, then they might have a chance to get some rare spiritual objects from the earth veins.

　　唰! Uh-huh!

At the moment, Yu Jun led a group of demon-slaying men and horses, leaping onto the rock wall one after another, and guarding the surroundings of the hillside.

Although the hillside and rock walls are very congested at this time, with almost no place to stay, for ordinary people, the weakest of the group of people brought by Yu Jun are all Yijin realm warriors, and there are places where ordinary people cannot stand. It can easily gain a foothold, and no matter how difficult it is, it can also forcefully carve out a rock wall to carve out a small place for a foothold.

But just after everyone jumped up the rock wall, Chen Mu did not fall towards the small canoe brought by the people. Instead, he allowed the small canoe to be carried away by the rushing water and jumped into the distance. Jump and fall in the opposite direction.

"Um?"

Yu Jun and many other people were slightly startled.

Although for them, even if they lost the canoe, it was not impossible to leave here. No matter how hard it was, they could hold on to the hillside until the tide receded. The problem was that Chen Mu didn't want the canoe, so how did he plan to save people? ?

 But next.

Everyone saw that after a few ups and downs, Chen Mu landed on an ancient branch far away in sight, which was still partially floating on the water. Then he jumped into the water.

Then there was a dull buzzing from the bottom of the water, as if something exploded, and a huge wave of ten feet suddenly splashed on the water. The ancient tree was slowly tilted in the water, until it fell onto the water with a bang!

This is not over yet.

Before this nearly arm-thick ancient tree could move very far along the torrent, another wave splashed not far away, and then another ancient tree broke. Two huge ancient trees just followed the rapid torrent. All the way down, towards the hillside.

Looking at this scene, Yu Jun was slightly startled. The two ancient trees were indeed much larger than the small canoe, but if they were used to carry people, even if all the branches and leaves were cut off, they might not be stronger than the small canoe. How much, after all, it is heavy and drafts, and a dozen or so people on it will basically be submerged in the water. Moreover, the current is so fast, how can a group of villagers, old and young, stabilize themselves on it.

However.

Before the two ancient trees approached the hillside, Chen Mu's figure appeared again, with a flowing silver knife in his hand. With the flash of the knife, the branches of the two ancient trees were cut off one after another, and soon only two were left. Roots are thick trunk.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Mu's eyes flashed, and two invisible wind blades condensed on the blade of the flowing silver knife in his hand, along the middle of the trunk. Then he stretched out his hand, inserted it into the trunk of the tree, and suddenly lifted it. .

 Click! Click!

With a clicking sound, a large piece of complete wood in the middle of the trunk of the ancient tree was lifted up into the sky and fell far into the water. The trunks of the two ancient trees suddenly turned into two hollow wooden boats. !

But Chen Mu hadn't finished here yet. He jumped up and landed on the edge of the hillside. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the edge of one of the canoes. Then he suddenly exerted force and forcefully pulled this close The ten-meter-long wooden boat was lifted from the water, and then a ray of red light burst out from the palm of the hand and poured into the entire wooden boat.

　　Boom!

Flames instantly ignited on the damp wooden boat, and spread all the way until it penetrated the entire wooden boat. For a moment, it seemed as if a huge fire pillar of nearly ten meters was being held high!

The burning of the fire pillar did not last long. In just a moment, it quickly subsided and dissipated. However, almost all the water in the entire wooden boat was driven away by this. When Chen Mu put it back into the water again, it had become a slightly rough, but A large enough dragon boat to use, with a very shallow draft, it can carry dozens or hundreds of people!

Then.

Chen Mu made another dragon boat in the same way, and finally stuck the two dragon boats together and nailed a piece of wooden branch into them to connect them into a more stable boat.

Yu Jun watched Chen Mu build a large boat in the blink of an eye, and his eyes almost popped out of his head in shock.

The villagers, old and young, couldn't understand and looked at this scene in shock. Seeing Chen Mu in an instant, almost out of thin air, he 'transformed' a giant boat. They even muttered about gods, but Yu Jun, as the Demon Slayer Division How could the Deputy Chief of Staff, a person in the Bone Forging Realm, have no vision?

Not to mention the huge power that shocked him with every move and every move, which was far beyond his reach. Even the blazing flames that covered the dragon boat at the end made him feel a bit unbelievable.

 The artistic conception of Lihuo!

That is the undoubted power of Lihuo's artistic conception, and I'm afraid it's not just the first step!

Isn’t it the two artistic conceptions that Chen Mu masters: Xunfeng and Zhenlei?

 When did you realize Li Huo, and even enter the second step of Li Huo's artistic conception? This is the second step of the artistic conception, and it is as high as the existence of the five internal organs realm!

  Crash.

 Chen Mu jumped on the boat and let the new boat rest on the edge of the hillside. He didn't pay much attention to the shock of Yu Jun and others. He only said in a deep voice: "Everyone should get on the boat in an orderly manner. No fighting!"

At this time, many villagers on the hillside were still in shock. To them, the methods Chen Mu had just used were naturally no different from those of real gods. Even those well-informed old people knew that Chen Mu was very powerful. The warriors at this time couldn't help but wonder if Chen Mu was really an immortal descended from the earth.

Naturally, Chen Mu didn't know what he had done today. After today, it would be passed down word of mouth among the villagers, and eventually it would become a folk story of 'immortal building a boat' and become a part of the legend of monsters. Even if he knew it, Probably just laugh it off, because there are no immortals in this world, there are only martial arts that reach the peak.

The various stories about supernatural beings and immortals circulating in the world are mostly ordinary people with low vision. After seeing the incomprehensible realm of martial arts, they mistook them for the methods of gods, and then slowly turned into strange stories.

soon.

 A commotion and chaos began on the hillside.

 However, due to the intimidation and control of Yu Jun and others, it didn't take long for things to become orderly again, and then the nearest villagers began to board the boat one after another, and sat down carefully one by one.

Chen Mu did not issue any order such as "young children first". In this world, if children are separated from their parents or become orphans, it is almost impossible for them to survive. It is meaningless and purely Recklessly.

  After a while.

Hundreds of people boarded the boat, crowding it to the brim.

Some of the villagers who had not been able to get on the boat all showed a bit of worry, and some who just couldn't make it showed a look of impatience. However, they did not dare to face the nearby Yu Jun and other people from the Demon Slayer Division and Supervision Division. Fighting for each other.

"Okay, I'll send a group away first, and you can guard this place."

 Chen Mu saw that the boat was full of people, so he gave serious instructions to the many people of the Supervision Department behind him.

"yes!"

　　Thousands of households from the Supervision Department and white-clothed guards from the Demon Slayer Department responded one after another.

At this time, Yu Jun hesitated and wanted to ask Chen Mu if he would free up some vacancies and let a few white-clothed guards go up to control the boat. However, he saw that Chen Mu was already standing on the bow of the boat. He didn't see any movement, but suddenly there was a strong wind. Howling, he pushed the entire giant boat up, quickly sailed away from the hillside, and rode the wind and waves away.

Yu Jun swallowed what he wanted to say again.

Chen Mu has mastered the artistic conception of Xunfeng. He knows it, but the scene in front of him, where the body is motionless while the strong wind is blowing, is probably not what the first step of the artistic conception can achieve.

 Another artistic conception of taking the second step!

Looking at the back of Chen Mu who was riding the boat through the wind and waves, his figure quickly turned into a black dot, the thoughts in Yu Jun's heart suddenly surged like the torrent below.

 This moment was even more shocking than before, when the He family was wiped out by Chen Mu in one day.

Hongyu, this future husband, and my nephew and son-in-law, what kind of person is he!
