Chapter 173 Donglai Taishi Ci

The generals were all big-bellied men, so what Huo Hai said was that cooking a pot was obviously not feasible. In the end, it took more than a dozen pots to be eaten.

It’s no wonder they would open their stomachs to eat. The seafood that had just been taken out of the water was indeed delicious. Even Huo Hai ate three to five kilograms of fish and almost the same amount of shrimp and crab meat.

He knew that if he ate it again in the future, he would feel tired of it, and it would be better to eat it all in one meal.

With the blessing of the wind compass formation, it took only half a day before the fleet arrived at the sea where giant octopus often appeared. Most sea beasts have territorial consciousness, and this octopus is no exception.

However, before Liu Pi's subordinates poured the prepared fish blood into the sea to attract it, Zhao Yun discovered something strange on the sea surface.

"Two or three miles ahead, there was a man sailing rapidly in the sea with one sail."

"One person and one fan? What does it mean?" Huo Hai looked at Zhao Yun with some surprise, and grabbed the monocular lens in Liu Pi's hand.

This is the first generation product made by Heishanzhai. For Huo Hai, who has the vision to support, the effect is actually not great, but without the help of this thing, it is really difficult for him to see clearly what is happening two or three miles away.

After some searching, he saw a man and a sail.

A man is a man with a large and thick body, with tight muscles. He has two short halberds on his back, holding a large bow that is six or seven feet long in his left hand, and holding a sail rope in his right hand.

The sail was not big, the height was only more than ten feet and the width was only seven or eight feet. The man pulled and controlled the ship from time to time, which seemed very flexible.

The reason why everyone can only see this man's sail is because the boat under the man's feet has almost disappeared into the sea and is blocked by waves more than three feet high.

This kind of boat is a bit similar to the surfing windsurfing boats in later generations, and is extremely fast when there is wind.

However, the location of this man is about 300 miles away from the nearest land. Even if he is a warrior with the peak of internal strength, Huo Hai admires his courage very much.

The vast ocean is not something you can survive with enough martial arts.

Because, it will be dark in one or two hours, and that is the best time for sea beasts to hunt.

"This person is the Donglai Taishici, the general often mentioned." Liu Bi said with a verbal expression of the person's identity.

"Is that so? I invited him to serve as a general in Black Mountain many times before, but he refused. Why did he come to such a faraway sea alone?" Huo Hai said in surprise.

If it was Taishi Ci's words, Huo Hai was not surprised. At this time, he would be the ceiling of Qingzhou's military power.

Corresponding to this is his courage.

He was born as a wanderer in the world and had almost nothing he dared to do.

In theory, he should have been to Liu Bei, but he didn't know what happened. Liu Bei didn't accept him. Later, he went to Kong Rong for several years and was not allowed to use it. He then went to Liu Yao. He began to make his mark when Sun Ce was pacifying Jiangdong.

Generally speaking, people who are confused wherever they are, and they do not have any wisdom to know the master.

"He should have come to hunt sea beasts and get meat to nourish his mother." Liu Pi, who had been active in the coastal areas of Qingzhou for a long time, understood the situation and replied.

"Is he interested in that octopus?" Huo Hai smiled unexpectedly, but he was thinking about how to take the opportunity to take Taishi Ci to his command.

After all, at this time, he has the combat power that is not inferior to Zhao Yun. Even in the later stage, his horse fighting ability is still around the top ten, his shooting ability ranks among the top five, and his water fighting ability is definitely one of the best.

"He should be interested in all sea beasts, but the ships that can go to sea are expensive. If he can't afford to build them, he can make his own small sailboat!" Liu Pi also smiled.

He admired Taishici's bravery very much. Unfortunately, Taishici was a filial son. He listened to his mother very much and would never follow the path of rebellion. He was not the same as the Yellow Turban Army.

But now it is different. Huo Haigui was the general of Anbei and the Marquis of Yunzhong. His surrender to Huo Hai was not considered a rebellion, but a loyalty to the country.

"Go up, if he needs it, we can help him." Huo Hai nodded and ordered.

He had no doubt that Taishici had the ability to find the octopus and hunt it. A person who grew up by the sea and reached the peak of internal strength at such a young age must have nothing to do with the sea.

Sure enough, before the fishing team's ship approached, Taishi Ci in the distance had already taken action. He let go of the sail that was controlling the direction with his right hand, and quickly touched the quiver tied to his calf, and drew out three long arrows.

"Swish swish swish swish swish!"

Three arrows were fired at once, and suddenly, a ripples broke out on the sea surface, and a big fish was caught in the arrow.

"What a sharp archery technique." Zhao Yun praised.

You know, Zhao Yun's archery skills are also first-class, and he has seen Lu Bu's top archery skills, so he can't help but praise it, which means that Taishi Ci's archery skills are not inferior to him at all, and he can even compete with Lu Bu.

"Is there anything wrong with it?" Huo Hai asked Zhao Yun.

After all, among the people on the boat, Zhao Yun's archery technique is at the level of entering the hall.

"First of all, there is strong wind on the sea surface, and the arrows shoot from a long distance, which makes it easy to lose their correct head. And all his arrows penetrated into the big fish's brain accurately, indicating that the correct head and strength are very impressive."

You should know that the skull of the sea fish is very hard.

"Secondly, the arrows are different from walking in the air and walking in the water. His arrows shot into the water from the air. In the water, they can also accurately hit the target, proving that he has excellent mental arithmetic prediction ability."

This has to talk about the problem of light refraction. Usually, the location of the fish seen on the water surface is different from the location under the water. Being able to prepare for hits carefully can only show that Taishici is very familiar with the depth of these sea fish under the water and clearly knows the degree of deviation.

"In the end, his strong balance ability on water is the only one I have seen in my life. I am afraid that even I am not far from him."

The first two things, those who are good at shooting may be able to achieve them after practicing for a long time, but on a windy boat, they can be as stable as Mount Tai on a sea with strong winds. This is a kind of balance talent and it is difficult to practice.

Of course, it is not enough to have balance alone. You have to integrate with the entire wave, fully grasp the frequency and speed of the waves up and down, and calculate your arrow time.

But it is not very powerful to just count the timing of one arrow. Forget the three arrows together, it is really sharp, because the three fish are all very large and not next to each other, with several meters in the middle.

The most important thing is that if he needs to use his feet to control balance, the strength between his waist cannot be used to shoot arrows.

So, his three arrows just now were shot purely by the power of his arm. Not only did the lower plate not help, he also needed to be distracted to master the balance.

This is also something that most warriors find difficult to do.

Because when you shoot a heavy arrow, you have to rely on the Dantian to exert force. The Dantian is at the waist, but not on the Dantian to exert force, but only on the arms, shoulders and back, and the muscles in the chest can exert force such a hard bow and shoot such a lethal arrow. It can only be said that Taishi Ci is also gifted on the other hand, that is, a body of divine power.

While Zhao Yun was talking, Taishi Cike was not idle for a second. He drove a fast windsurfing boat and moved forward quickly on the waves. After a while, he took back the three arrows that had been shot and then shot them out again. After this, in just one stick of incense, dozens of corpses of sea fish were floating on the sea surface, and the smell of blood spread everywhere.

"Ha, it's the same as our idea. Use the blood of the sea fish to attract the octopus."

Liu Pi said, and Huo Hai immediately signaled to ask the boatmen to pour all the blood of the fish they took when they killed the fish into the sea, and lure the octopus to appear.

About three quarters of an hour, it was already dusk, but there was still no movement on the sea. Huo Hai was about to order the boatmen to cast a net and pull it in a carpet style, but he didn't expect that the hull where he was shaking.

"General, the octopus is here, and, a little overestimated, wants to attack our fishing boat."

“It’s at the bottom of the boat?”

"Yes, this guy treats our boat as a sea fish again." Liu Pi said excitedly.

After all, they caught more fish in the net, and the blood poured into the sea was much bigger than the fish that Taishi Ci killed.

Now that the octopus is coming to attack the fishing boat, there is no need to worry about Taishi Ci not getting close to him and talking.

A general on the ship pulled out his weapons, stole the horses, and used a thousand-pound pendant to stabilize the hull, but he did not expect that on the sea in the distance, there was only a small windsurfing surfing on the sea surface, and had long lost the trace of Taishici.

"Woo don't~!"

A white tentacle with dense suction cups suddenly stretched out from under the sea and swept towards the flagship plywood. Liu Pi and others waved their swords to resist, but Huo Hai, Zhao Yun and others did not use the knife, and directly reached out and grabbed the tentacle that was thick with their waists and backs.

The impact force after contact made Huo Hai feel a little sore in his arms. Just by whipping the force, these eight fish and waved their tentacles were enough to match the full blown attack of the mid-stage internal strength warrior.

When Zhao Yun grabbed the tentacle, his arm was shaken, which not only dissolved the force of the octopus whipping, but also reversed it back, causing his entire tentacle to shake three times, making it soft and no longer the force to continue to beat people.

However, when his fingers grabbed the octopus' tentacles, they were completely trapped and could not be pulled out for a while.

“What a big stickiness.”

Zhao Yun's palm shook again and finally broke his hand out. On his palm, there was a layer of slippery mucus, which seemed to be a little corrosive. If it weren't for the addition of the blood of the Xuanwu Giant Turtle, the skin, flesh, muscles and bones were abnormally strong, this mucus might have corroded the skin on his hands to a certain extent.

Although Guan Hai, who was standing behind the two of them, his attack method was more domineering. With a wave of the big sword, a cold light flashed, and the tentacles that were thick on their waists were cut by him a three-foot-deep hole.

However, the tentacle did not have any pain and retracting movements, nor was there a scene of blood flowing. It just squirmed twice quickly, and the blade disappeared.

"The blade of the big knife is too short, so you should use a longer blade."

After Liu Pi and others blocked the tentacle with a four-foot-long big Pu knife, they waved the sword to slash at the tentacles. After a while, the tentacles were cut into several sections and were still squirming on the deck.

"This octopus is not very good!" Guan Hai easily cut off one of the tentacles of the octopus when he saw everyone, and said with some contempt.

With this ability alone, he felt that the fishing team should be able to easily take down the octopus.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, five or six tentacles suddenly appeared on the side of the ship on both sides and swept towards the deck. Suddenly, even Huo Hai and Zhao Yun were not so calm and needed to jump to dodge and pull out their weapons to slash.

After waving these tentacles for a while, they suddenly retreated, but the cut tentacles he had left on the deck were gone.
