Immortal Martial Lord

Chapter 75 Haotian Fleet
  In the southern part of the Yan Kingdom, the 800-mile Yunmeng Mountain is an inaccessible primitive mountain range. There are many strange peaks in this mountain range, and it is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, as if there is a layer of gauze shrouding the mountains, hence the name Yunmeng.

Yunmeng Mountain is majestic and steep. In addition to the primitive old forests that can be seen everywhere, the scenery in some places is also good. There are springs and waterfalls dotted among them, and there are quiet valleys with blooming flowers and the fragrance of birds and flowers.

Legend has it that there are many people in the mountains who have cultivated and understood Taoism, but people outside the mountains have never seen such extraordinary masters coming out of the mountains.

If you want to live the eight hundred miles of Yunmeng Mountain, the most convenient and time-saving way is to take a boat and take the waterway.

A large river called Yanjiang runs from north to south, passing through the lofty and cold mountains of Yunmeng Mountain, connecting the north and the south. It is the only way to go to the southern wilderness county of Yan State.

Whether they are merchants selling goods between the north and south, or people visiting relatives and friends, they will take a boat along the river. This is many times more comfortable than traveling overland and traveling over mountains and ridges.

There are many passenger ships coming and going on the Yanjiang River, which is thousands of miles away, and there are even more merchant ships buying precious medicinal materials or the furs of various beasts from the southern wilderness.

Ordinary passenger ships, that's all, but merchant ships loaded with goods purchased from the Southern Wilderness contained a considerable amount of wealth. Naturally, there were those desperadoes who would risk beheading and destroying their families to attack that merchant ship. idea.

Therefore, some merchant ships have many people who are proficient in martial arts to protect the ships. Of course, these warriors only know some boxing and kicking skills, but the true secrets of martial arts have long been lost in the secular world.

Some large caravans or business groups do not need to hire bodyguards or warriors to protect their goods, because they have their own escorts.

At noon that day, three large ships sailed down the river, wearing banners and flying. From time to time, groups of guards wearing light armor and holding swords patrolled the decks of the ships, keeping tight security.

On the bows of the three large ships was a large flag fluttering in the wind. The flagpole was several feet high, with yellow characters on a blue background and the two characters "Haotian" written on the flag.

On the deck of a large ship sailing at the front, there were three figures leaning on the railing, pointing and looking at the scenery on both sides of the river.

"The apes on both sides of the strait are crying endlessly. The boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains. The scenery on both sides of the Yunmeng Mountain is really good. It is rare to see it in other places!" On the deck, a man with white teeth and red lips, extremely handsome, dressed as a young man from an aristocratic family. The dressed young man sighed softly.

The young master's voice was clear and sweet. If he wasn't dressed like a son from a noble family, he would have thought it was a woman speaking.

"Master!" A cute and cute maid in an emerald green dress called out, then she suddenly covered her mouth with a smile, and then said: "It's windy outside, Master, why don't you go inside!"

"Haha! Xiaocui, my cultivation, young master, is one of the best among the disciples of the aristocratic families in Yanjing. I am not a weakling. Don't worry." The handsome young master held a folding fan on the maid's head. He knocked lightly and smiled.

It turns out that this young man who looks like a young man from an aristocratic family comes from Yanjing, the capital of the Yan Kingdom.

"Hey! Miss, ah! No, young master, look, what is that!" Suddenly, another maid wearing a light yellow dress next to the young man pointed at the river in front of him and said in surprise.

"Xiaoyue, how many times have I told you that you should call me young master outside and don't call me miss. Do you understand?" The young man said to the maid named Xiaoyue somewhat unhappily. "Yes, yes, young master, there seems to be a person on the river in front of you!" The maid named Xiaoyue said in a panic, pointing to the river in front of her.

It turns out that this handsome young man is actually a tomboy, a girl disguised as a boy.

At this time, the big ship was approaching, and on the river ten feet ahead, there seemed to be a white figure floating in the water.

"That's..." The young lady disguised as a man and the maid Xiaocui also saw the white shadow on the river in front of them, and they were all extremely surprised.

"Uncle Zhong!" The young lady disguised as a woman suddenly called into the cabin, and a breeze suddenly appeared on the deck. Where the breeze passed, a figure suddenly appeared on the deck.

Coming and going like the wind, this person who suddenly appeared is definitely a master, at least a rare master in the secular world.

This person who suddenly appeared like a ghost was an old servant, wearing a green coat, with a stooped body and gray hair. Judging from his appearance, he was really an ordinary old man who couldn't be more ordinary. However, being ordinary is just the appearance of this old servant.

"Uncle Zhong, look!" The lady disguised as a man pointed towards the river and said to the old man. Her words were very respectful, and she did not treat the old man as a servant, but as an elder.

"Huh?" The old servant named Uncle Zhong looked in the direction pointed by the young lady's finger, and couldn't help but frown, and a gleam flashed through his cloudy eyes.

I saw the loyal uncle wave his right hand, and a ray of silver light immediately came out from his sleeve. It was a silver whip. The silver whip flashed like a snake in the old man's hand, and it suddenly scurried out. After walking a few dozen feet, he caught the man in the water, then raised his right hand suddenly, "Wow!" With a sound, the man floating in the water was pulled out of the water and flew towards the boat.

Uncle Zhong took two steps back, then reached out to catch the person who was caught in the silver whip and flew towards the deck, and put the person on the deck.

The rescued man's clothes were in tatters, his eyes were closed, and he was in a coma.

"There is still one breath left, it seems there is still hope!" Uncle Zhong quickly checked the man's physical condition and found that not only was the man not dead, but there was also a vague force surging in his body.

"So what if this person is saved? It has nothing to do with us." As he said that, Uncle Zhong actually put away the silver whip, then picked up the person with one hand and was about to throw it into the river.

This loyal uncle didn't seem to want to cause any trouble. He was seriously injured and the bones of both arms seemed to be broken. Who knows who beat him like this?
  This man floating on the river looked a bit weird. After all, Uncle Zhong had been running around for a long time, so he was much more wary of these weird things than the average person.

"Uncle Zhong, wait a minute! Since this man is not dead, let's rescue him first." When the lady disguised as a man saw that Uncle Zhong was about to throw the man into the river again, she couldn't help but hurriedly stopped him.

"Since this man survived the disaster in the river, he still met us. It is a kind of fate. There are many vacant rooms on the ship, so we just need to make arrangements. Are there so many of us that we are still afraid of a dying man like him?" The woman said softly.
