"ah---"

At first glance, Gan Ning said the appointment point word by word. Among the five people behind Li Li, except Huan Fei, Zhou Yu, Lu Su and Er Qiao exclaimed when they heard the sound, and all looked shocked.

"What's wrong with you?" Li Li suddenly turned around and asked in confusion when he heard the screams behind him.

Lu Su was shocked and lost, and he woke up first. He walked quickly to Li Li and pulled him back to the door of the cabin. His face was still filled with horror.

Obviously, the place Dulongtan is quite famous, so that Yangzhou people far away from Jingzhou have heard of this place name.

In addition, it is certain that this famous place is not a good place, otherwise, if the mind is as calm as Zhou Yu and Lu Su, they would not have changed their emotions and were still shocked.

"Brother, hey, you shouldn't have agreed to Gan Ning to face the challenge!" Lu Su sighed at first, his expression seemed very heavy, and he wanted to speak but stopped.

Li Li was slightly stunned when he heard this and said in surprise: "Can this poisonous dragon pond be a dragon pond or a tiger's den? Is it so scary?"

"Uh?" Lu Su Muran looked up at Li Li and asked in surprise: "Brother knows the Poison Dragon Pond? Since he knows, why does that brother still have to fight? Don't you hear that there are no heroes on the Poison Dragon Pond, and the Nightmare Abyss buried the loyal soul?"

"There are no heroes in the Poison Dragon Pond, and the loyal souls are buried in the nightmare abyss?" Li Li pondered with a blank expression.

"Yes!" Lu Su said in response: "Dulongtan was first named "Nightmare Abyss", which is the place where loyal souls rest in the minds of the Chu people. According to legend, in 278 BC, the Qin general Bai Qi led his troops to break through the capital of Chu, Yingdu, and then fought with the Chu army in Yancheng, breaking water to flood the city, resulting in hundreds of thousands of Chu people being lost in the flood. More than a month after the war, the Chu people found the corpses of the victims. More than 100,000 of them were gathered in hundreds of miles.

In an abyss pool outside, this nameless deep pool was named "Nightmare Abyss", which means that the unjustly death of the Chu people will not disperse. Although the Qin general Wu'an Jun Bai Qi was powerful in the six kingdoms, he was not a hero in the minds of the Chu people at that time. In contrast, the unjustly soul of the Chu people in the Nightmare Abyss was regarded as the loyal soul of the Chu people by their descendants. Therefore, there is a saying that "there is no hero on the Poison Dragon Pool, and the loyal soul buried in the Nightmare Abyss"

When Li Li heard Lu Su mention the pre-Qin general Bai Qi, he was secretly surprised, but a set of numbers in his mind about the "Killing God Bai Qi" appeared in his mind.

According to historical records that are well-documented in later generations, the Qin general Bai Qi wiped out a total of more than one million people during his life's war. During the Warring States Period, about two million people were killed in battle, and Bai Qi accounted for half of them. Therefore, after Bai Qi committed suicide, the princes of the six kings drank wine to congratulate him and praised him. People in the world called Bai Qi the "God of Killing".

But it is really hard for Li Li to imagine what the relationship between the Poison Dragon Pond and the Nightmare Abyss. After all, this is something that happened four hundred years ago, so why has it been passed down to this day?

As soon as he thought of this, Li Li asked anxiously: "Zijing, don't go around the corner, tell me what's going on with this Poison Dragon Pond?"

Seeing that Li Li didn't know the whole story of the Poison Dragon Pond, Lu Su was stunned. At this time, Zhou Yu continued to say, "The Nightmare Abyss has long been in the process of dynasty changes, but in the past hundred years, any fishing boats passing through the entrance of the abyss have been damaged one after another, and all the boats have been destroyed. So far, I am afraid that thousands of fishermen have been buried. At first, I didn't know what was strange, but just thought it was a ghost. Until someone saw a dragon entering and leaving the abyss pool from afar. Since then, it has spread to ten thousand people, and the name of the Poison Dragon Pond has spread from here."

Speaking of this, Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down his mind and continued: "The fishermen along the river believed in the water gods and the dragon kings, and believed in the sayings of ghosts and evil gods. Therefore, some people linked the nightmare abyss hundreds of years ago with the Poison Dragon Pond, believing that the poisonous dragons in the Poison Dragon Pond were transformed by the unjust souls and caused harm to the surrounding people. Therefore, the surrounding people moved away from the Poison Dragon Pond one after another. As a result, there was no family within hundreds of miles around the deep pool, and the passing boats did not dare to pass through the entrance of the deep pool, so they had to detour the tributaries a hundred miles away.

In the past ten years, it is said that many rangers have gone to the Poison Dragon Pond to find out the truth without fear of danger, but most of them have gone but never returned. No news has been heard. Only those who went to explore in winter can escape and claim that there is really a huge dragon about dozens of feet long in the Poison Dragon Pond. The rumors are vivid and seem to be true. But Zhou Yu, I, don’t believe in such absurd rumors, but there are many strange things in the world. The rumors of Poison Dragon Pond have been passed down for a hundred years, and it must be groundless. Therefore, the lord should not take risks with himself. It would rather believe that there is something than believing in nothing. If the rumors are true, wouldn’t it be a death sentence and never return?"

"A dragon dozens of feet long? Hahaha!" Li Li pondered in surprise, then shook his head and laughed, and said, "It's really absurd and evil saying, it's not worth believing! In the past, Zicheng, Feihu and others chased Ma Chao. Zicheng hunted a golden python for a hundred years, but it was only a few feet long and weighed about a hundred pounds. Such a false thing has been passed down for a hundred years. There must be something strange about it. Maybe it's the nest of a water thief, and it's just a slander that fools the people with the slandering of evil sayings!"

Speaking of this, Li Li suddenly changed his mind and asked, "Where is the Poison Dragon Pond and how far is it from here?"

"Walking along the river for more than ten miles, then entering the tributary, and going west for dozens of miles. The journeys in the front and back are combined, and it takes nearly a hundred miles, and it takes two days to sail." Lu Su continued.

"Hundred miles of water?" Li Li was surprised and hesitated and said, "Wouldn't that go away and delay our trip? Since that's the case, it's better not to go, and prepare to fight with the Jinfan thief!"

"Hahaha!" Li Li heard a harsh sneer as soon as he finished speaking. Without turning his head to look, he knew that the person who laughed must be Gan Ning.

Turning his head and seeing Gan Ning leaning against his ferry, Li Li's eyes flashed with a hint of alert, and he immediately said in a deep voice: "Why are you laughing at? Is it ridiculous?"

"Are you afraid, don't dare to go?" Gan Ning stared at Li Li and said with a smirk.

Li Li looked at Gan Ning without showing any weakness, nodded slightly and said, "Even if I'm afraid. I'm not like you, I'm curious about unknown things. A few years ago, I no longer have curiosity, and I won't fight with others. For some uncontrollable things, I would rather choose to give in or give up than take risks with myself. But I envy you Gan Ning, who is happy to be revenge and romance, and have no worries. This is also a great pleasure in life!"

As he spoke, Li Li felt that Gan Ning was not as annoying as before. He was quite generous. He did whatever he wanted, free and unrestrained, and enviable.

After a brief pause, Li Li withdrew his gaze. He no longer looked at Gan Ning, and sighed with emotion: "Although you and me are invincible today, a fight is inevitable. But I still think that you, Gan Xingba, is a man. Although your actions make me dare not agree with it, this does not hinder my appreciation of you. Unfortunately, I am now carrying the future and destiny of many people. Many times, many things are not what I want to do. Life is not just about living for myself, but also many things and responsibilities that we need to bear and fight for forever. So, to be honest, I envy you Gan Ning, who is in the world. You are carefree and unrestrained, and you are free and at ease, which is desirable!"

"Oh?" Gan Ning's expression moved slightly when he heard this, looked at Li Li with complicated eyes, and said suspiciously: "You are very strange. You are not old and have a lot of feelings. You are calm and composed when you encounter things, and you are old-fashioned. You seem to have experienced many things. Just like you are a little-faced person, you should not be older than me. You are about the early twenties and just passed away for a short time, right?"

"You have good eyesight and speak no badly. Unfortunately, we are still enemies!" Li Li said in a deep voice with an unhappy expression.

Some words that were very popular were heard from Gan Ning's mouth, and the taste suddenly changed, making people feel harsh. Therefore, Li Li naturally would not give him a good face and did not speak ill of him, because Li Li did not have the interest of bickering at this moment and felt a little depressed.

Gan Ning disregarded the strange look on Li Li's face and was not angry about it. His expression was as calm as usual. Perhaps it was because he didn't fight or know each other, or perhaps Li Li's words just now touched him, which prompted Gan Ning to change his impression of Li Li, and he no longer got angry when he saw Li Li like before.

"Don't you mind if I'm on your boat?" Gan Ning suddenly asked when Li Li's face was not good.

Li Li's face changed slightly, his eyes narrowed and looked at Gan Ning, and said in a deep voice: "Are you afraid that I will take the opportunity to kill you? You are the leader of Jinfan thief. You should be familiar with the principle of capturing the thief first. As long as I capture you, your subordinates will definitely be afraid of being attacked and watch us leave. Do you still dare to come and die?"

"Send death? Hahaha, I'm afraid it may not be!" Gan Ning's expression remained unchanged, and he shook his head disapprovingly, "You have regarded these brothers under Gan Ning as too simple. Over the years, I have been with them and have experienced countless revenge and fights, and there are many fierce battles in siege. But you see, I am still alive and unscathed, and still standing in front of you. You can look up and see that there are thousands of my brothers on the rock cliff on the shore, and there are dozens of warships on the riverside at the turn of the front, and you can go into the water to chase you at any time. Therefore, even if you have the ability to kill me, you dare not attack, because you are not alone, and it is even more impossible to escape alone. Otherwise, with your good skills and water nature alone, if you want to escape, none of us can stop you. But you have not escaped yet, which means you care about your companions on the ship very much. Since that is the case, why am I afraid of?"

While talking, Gan Ning jumped, jumped onto the bow of the ship, and stood next to Li Li for three steps, without fear of Li Li's intimidation.

This shows that Gan Ning is not a reckless person, but is extremely courageous, brave and resourceful. He is worthy of being an old man who walks around the world. He has a very scheming method and is scheming, and has strange behaviors. He is a very difficult and tough character.

Squinting his eyes as Gan Ning jumped onto the ferry without fear, Li Li then looked up at the Jinfan escort on the stone cliff, with a solemn look in his eyes.

Everything is as Gan Ning said, Jinfan thieves are numerous and well-trained. At this moment, they have surrounded the ferry, making it difficult for Li Li and his group to fly.

In addition, Gan Ning's eyes were very poisonous. After seeing that Li Li would not give up his companion easily and escape alone.

Since this happened, Gan Ning had no worries when he boarded the ship again and stood beside Li Li, and he was sure that Li Li would not dare to attack him. Otherwise, the five people on the ship, except Li Li, would never have been able to escape the siege of Jinfan and the thieves, and it would be even more impossible to escape the siege of the thieves.

"It seems that you are sure to win. Since that's the case, why should you bet on my life with me? You can order the arrow to see who will die first?" Li Li glanced at Gan Ning standing beside him with a careless voice.

"Hahaha!" Gan Ning laughed coldly and said, "You are really cooked duck meat and your mouth is not bad. Even now, it is still showing off your might in front of me!

Let me tell you the truth, Gan Ning is not a bloodthirsty person, and he will not do business at a loss. How many people can survive on the ship with a chaotic arrow? If you are killed, why should I try my best to lead a group of brothers to chase hundreds of miles and rush to you to set up an ambush in front of you? I never did such a futile thing, and today is no exception. But this time it was a bit unexpected. I didn’t expect that you were so good at water, even above me. I didn’t expect that you are still a tough guy, and you can still be so calm until death, which is a headache!”

"It's rare to hear a truth from your mouth!" Li Li smiled slightly, turned to look at Gan Ning, and said calmly, "Since you have the courage to get on the boat, then follow me to have a cup of tea in the cabin. I just fought with you under the water, and I was a little thirsty at this moment. You happen to be here too. Don't worry about these eyeing Jinfan thieves secretly using cold arrows. While there is still time, take a tea and rest, and then we will fight again. Please!"

Although he invited Gan Ning into the cabin, Li Li left after saying that, and strode into the cabin, but he didn't have the sincerity of invitation.

"It's okay if you don't say it's thirsty. When I mention tea, I'm really thirsty!" Gan Ning said in a daze. After returning to his senses, he found that Li Li had entered the cabin. He couldn't help but feel discouraged: "This guy really doesn't take me Jinfan thief seriously, and he is so arrogant!"

While talking to himself, Gan Ning quickly caught up and said as he walked, "Hi, Li Wenchang, wait! Is there any wine in the cabin? What's the point of drinking tea? If you want to drink it, drink it!"

When he stepped into the cabin, Li Li waved to Zhou Yu, Lu Su and Huan Fei to come in together, ignoring the surrounding Jinfan entourage.

"Xiao Qiao, don't worry, there will be nothing wrong, I will have everything!" As soon as I walked into the cabin, Xiao Qiao flew into Li Li's arms, her bright eyes were filled with tears, and her pretty face was full of worry.

After comforting Xiao Qiao with a soft voice, Li Li gently patted Xiao Qiao's "qiaotun" and said softly: "Go, cook a pot of good tea, let's try your tea-making skills. Hahaha!"

Xiao Qiao Yiyi reluctantly left Li Li's arms, walked slowly into the curtain, and cooked tea with her sister Da Qiao.

When Li Li was ready to sit down, Zhou Yu, Lu Su and others walked in and sat down around the desk. The expression on their faces looked particularly gloomy and silent.

Li Li smiled and said, "Don't worry so much. Things are not as serious as you think. Over the years, I have encountered countless storms and waves. Today's events are not worth mentioning at all. It's just a small fight, what's the point? Hahaha!"
