Chapter 1584 Fried Fish
The method of using water ghosts to drill into boats has actually been used in wars a long time ago, especially for this type of black-sailed boat, which is originally a small fishing boat and the hull planks are not very thick.

If the boat leaks, everyone will fall into the water.

The heroes of the Sixteen Villages are good at swimming, but compared with the killers with scuba gear, they don’t have enough time to swim underwater. What’s more, except for the people of the Sixteen Villages, everyone else is a landlubber.

For example, Yang Yiyi can swim, but it is unnecessary for her to compete in swimming with a bunch of water ghosts in the wind and rain.

Once you fall into the water, no matter how powerful you are, you will not be able to use it.

But just like Li Chengxi would ask for help from Oramon Oldie when he encountered something he didn't understand, Yang Yiyi would also ask for help from Li Chengxi first when she ran into trouble.

"Brother Li, what should we do?"

"Don't panic."

Then Yang Yiyi felt her arms sink:
"Blast them with this thing."

Yang Yiyi reached out and took out an egg-shaped grenade...

Do you really think you are invincible in the water?

Naive.

It is very difficult to shoot a target in water with a gun. Not only is it difficult to aim because of the refraction of water, but once the bullet enters the water, it will encounter huge resistance and become less lethal.

This is why many countries develop special underwater rifles, although the so-called special rifles cannot shoot far.

But explosions are different. The shock wave transmitted underwater can be much more powerful than that transmitted in the air.

Li Chengxi knew this, not because he had fried fish before, but because he was naughty as a child and threw firecrackers into the toilet.

As expected, the toilet seat cracked.

——As expected, they were defeated in a round of mixed doubles.

If a small firecracker has such great power, what about throwing a grenade?
"Throw it far away, don't blow yourself up"

After giving Yang Yiyi a warning, the latter immediately pulled out the pull ring and threw it into the river.

When the grenade fell into the water, a series of bubbles could be seen bubbling up, followed by a loud bang and a huge column of water rising from the water surface.

The noise startled everyone.

When Qin Yan and Wu Shaoyi went to the Tianlang Sect before, they had seen Yang Yiyi use a grenade. When they heard the noise, they knew it must have been Li Chengxi who took action.

However, Tang Lianyu had obviously never seen this before, and she shuddered when she heard the noise.

"Could it be that Anxiangtang has also prepared a thunder bomb?"

That thing is actually a homemade mine made of gunpowder stuffed into an iron or pottery jar, and is often used in battles against the North.

"It's Lady Yang's unique hidden weapon, the Thunderbolt Fire Bomb."

Qin Yan was still explaining to Yang Yiyi, and Tang Lianyu was a little puzzled.

Is the Thunderbolt Fire Bomb so powerful?

"It's specially made. Sister Yang used this move to repel many people from the Heavenly Wolf Sect in the Western Regions."

Hearing Wu Shaoyi say this, Tang Lianyu was still a little skeptical, but another explosion made her shrink her head and she didn't have time to think about it for the time being.

Regardless of how Qin Yan and Wu Shaoyi in the boat tent tried to trick Tang Lianyu, Yang Yiyi threw three or four grenades, and a large number of freshwater fish with their bellies facing up suddenly floated up on the water.

These fish are not killed by the explosion, but stunned by the shock wave, making fishing extremely efficient.

Along with the fish, a group of men in black also floated to the surface. A rough count showed that there were more than a dozen of them. They floated on the water like corpses, motionless. They must have been stunned by the shock.

"Come on, come on, shake them all out." Li Chengxi took grenades from Alyssa, a whole box at a time, and there were ten in a box, and this was just the end.

Just as Yang Yiyi was about to take out a grenade from her bosom and throw it down, Qin Yan came out from the awning first:
"Stop throwing it! The boat is leaking!"

People can't stand it, the ship...

I can't hold it in any longer.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Although this hand-grenade fishing tactic successfully turned the water ghosts who tried to slash the boat into literal water ghosts, the structure of the wupeng boat obviously could not withstand the shock wave.

Even though Li Chengxi specifically asked Yang Yiyi to throw it farther away, she still couldn't bear it.

All five wupeng boats were damaged to varying degrees. The killer had been dealt with and the boats were about to sink.

There was no time to worry about whether the killer floating on the water was dead or not. Everyone immediately put down their weapons and picked up pots and pans to scoop out water, while using oars to control the direction. Finally, they managed to reach the shore before the boat sank.

Although they did not float on the river for a long time, the water was flowing rapidly in the rainstorm and everyone drifted downstream, and they were already far away from the ambushed town.

But it's still not safe here.

After getting off the boat, everyone continued to move forward immediately, not being able to stop for a moment, after all, they didn't know whether Anxiangtang would catch up with them.

Rainwater will take away a lot of heat, which will also increase the consumption of physical energy. The heroes of the Sixteen Villages are all big and strong, but it’s not a big deal. Even Wu Shaoyi can keep up with them in a wheelchair using his lightness skills.

But Miss Tang Lianyu really couldn't bear it. She couldn't run far before she had no strength left. After that, she completely relied on Yang Yiyi to carry her on her back, and fortunately she didn't fall behind.

Qin Yan must have known the way, because she led everyone not along the main road, but directly into the woods.

The complex forest environment and rain will wash away their traces, and it will be extremely difficult for the people from Anxiangtang to track them even if they want to.

Of course, this is under the premise that Qin Yan knows the way. If one just wanders around in the woods during a rainstorm, the possibility of getting lost is greater.

They kept running through the woods for nearly two hours, and now the heroes of the Sixteen Villages were somewhat exhausted.

Fortunately, we finally arrived at the hiding place in Shiliu Village.

It was an L-shaped cave with some shrubs planted at the entrance as camouflage. The entrance was narrow and the inside was wide, enough to accommodate these people temporarily.

The L-shaped cave also allows people to make a fire inside without being exposed. The flames cannot shine outside, and the smoke can be discharged through the grooves dug on the top of the cave.

After all, the Sixteen Villages were a group of bandits. They had prepared such resting places in many places in the Central Plains and had hidden some medicine, oil and firewood in advance.

After everyone went in, they quickly lit a bonfire and treated the wounds they had sustained along the way. Many people's wounds had turned white due to being soaked in water.

Zhou Yuxuan had stayed behind to cover the rear, so he was sure he could guess that Qin Yan would bring people to this place to wait for him.

Now that we are here, it should be safe for the time being. We can finally warm ourselves by the fire, eat something and take a rest.

But then again, the severity of the situation has repeatedly refreshed Li Chengxi's psychological expectations.

Isn’t the scale of Anxiangtang’s pursuit of Tang Lianyu a bit too large?
Let's be reasonable. When Anxiangtang targeted Princess Mingzhu before, it was not on such a large scale, nor did it have such a detailed plan.

Catching up with Tang Lianyu was like arranging people in all the directions she might escape. If she hadn't run into Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi by chance, even if the people from the Sixteen Villages arrived in time, Tang Lianyu probably wouldn't have been able to escape.

Although Anxiangtang is now confirmed to have sided with the North, Tang Lianyu and Tangfeng Trading Company are helping the Ten Kingdoms of the Central Plains transport supplies to resist the attack from the North. This is indeed important, but is it really important enough for Anxiangtang to invest so much money in this?

After all, Anxiangtang is now a rat crossing the street. If it shows its head, it will be besieged by the Central Plains martial arts world and government officials.

Thinking of this, Li Chengxi felt that the reason for hunting down Tang Lianyu might not be that simple...
