The red sun rises in the east, and the morning glow fills the sky.

Between the green mountains and clear waters, dozens of warships pass through them, breaking the waves and moving forward.

The mountains and forests are lush and green, and the flowers on both sides of the strait are blooming, competing for beauty and beauty.

On the river, the water flow is clear, dozens of warships are facing the wind and waves, and more than 1,000 young people are standing on the boats, among which there are a few female dependents.

When it is:

The clear water reflects the shadow of the people, and the swimming fish compete to follow.

Men are like mountains, and women are better than flowers.

Cherish the beauty is not a good day, and the flowers are not smelled.

The injustices in the world have been accounted for.

――――――

By midday, the ships entered a lonely canyon through a tributary.

The waterway is narrow, allowing only one to pass through guò, so a line of dozens of ships is lined up one after another, like a long dragon that stretches for miles, moving slowly.

The ship had been traveling for less than a quarter of an hour, and the sight had dimmed imperceptibly. There is no sunlight in sight, and the sight is all a misty place, and the visibility is extremely low. At first the people on board could see within fifty paces, but then the fog grew so thick that visibility was less than twenty paces, and the ships in front could not see the ships behind, and dozens of warships were already shrouded in thick fog, slowly moving along the dense canyon waterways.

"Brother, look, this is the entrance to the Poison Dragon Pool!"

Among the dozens of warships, Li Li and his entourage were on the third warship, and at this moment, all six of them were standing at the bow of the ship, looking at the vision in front of them with solemn expressions.

It is said to be looking, but in fact it is to open your eyes and want to see the distance, but in fact it is in vain, the visibility of twenty steps is already the extreme of the line of sight, and then there is a dense fog.

Li Li stared into the distance, with a solemn look on his face and a deep gaze. I don't know what to think again.

Lu Su stood beside him, and after a pause in his voice, he said in a deep voice: "It is rumored that the Poison Dragon Pond is filled with thick fog all year round and lasts for a long time, even when the scorching sun is in the sky in midsummer.

Now it seems that the rumors are true. It's midday, and the sun is just above the head, so it stands to reason that it should be able to shine into the canyon. However, the scene in front of me is really strange and incomprehensible. ”

Lu Su's words were full of lingering worries, as if he was full of worries about this trip to Poison Dragon Pond, and he was always reminding Li Li to be careful and not to be negligent.

After Zhou Yu, Huan Fei and others heard Lu Su's words. The mood is heavy and the expression is melancholy. But there is nothing to be done.

Two days ago. The group was besieged by the Jinfan thieves, and they were in an extremely dangerous situation, and there was no possibility of retreating except for desperate battles. At the critical moment, Li Li resolutely agreed to Gan Ning's gambling contract and went to the Poison Dragon Pond with the Jinfan thief. Compete with each other.

On that day, although Gan Ning was on the ferry, he put himself in danger, and he could be captured as a hostage by Li Li and others at any time. However. Gan Ning also came prepared. In the face of Huan Fei's threats and intimidation, he was not afraid, and would rather be broken than destroyed, showing an attitude of putting him to death and coming back to life. In this way, even if Li Li and others were able to capture him and even kill him on the spot, they could not escape the encirclement and interception of the Jinfan thieves, and finally broke the net.

Forced to desperation, Li Li had no choice but to agree to Gan Ning's promise to gamble his life, and go to the Poison Dragon Pond to compete in the water in the habitat of the legendary dragon. Whoever can come out of the poisonous dragon pool alive is naturally the victor, and the person who is buried in the waterhole will undoubtedly become the food of the dragon, and there is no place to bury him.

Such a dangerous gambling contract, according to Li Li's unprofitable style of acting and his temperament of cherishing his life like gold, it is impossible to agree. What's more, with his excellent diving skills and high skills, he is fully capable of escaping alone and not being threatened by Gan Ning.

However, the big husband does something and doesn't. As the lord of Xiliang, it is not right to take risks in person, but seeing that his subordinates and generals are in a desperate situation, and his own women have become the playthings of others, Li Li will definitely not run away alone and abandon everyone.

If he really escaped alone, maybe Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Huan Fei and Er Qiao would also have a chance of surviving, and Gan Ning might not necessarily kill all the people with killers. But as soon as this incident came out, what face did Li Li have to say goodbye to Zhou Yu, Lu Su and others, and how to face Xiliang's civil and military subordinates, wouldn't such an act be chilling. Although everyone can understand that Li Li is involuntarily, understanding is understanding, but it does not mean that everyone can accept it. Even if no one mentions this matter in the future, it will become the biggest stain and burden in his life, which will be unforgettable for a lifetime, lingering like a shadow, tormenting him for the rest of his life.

Therefore, Li Li did not hesitate to fight, and led everyone to board the Jinfan thief's warship, sailed for two days and two nights, and arrived at the entrance of the Poison Dragon Pond.

At this moment, Li Li listened to Lu Su's words in his ears, his eyes always looked straight ahead, and he observed the terrain around the canyon intently, his mood was extremely peaceful, not sad, not happy, not impatient, and his expression was as calm as water.

Suddenly, Li Li turned his head to Huan Fei and said, "No matter what happens later, what you have to do is to protect Er Qiao and Zijing, try to occupy a favorable terrain, and don't be negligent and give the thief a chance to go back on his word." If Zijing and Er Qiao suffer, everything I have done this time will be in vain and meaningless. Flying Tiger, do you hear me clearly? ”

"No! As long as the last general still has a breath of air, he will definitely live up to the trust of the lord! Huan Fei answered the order without the slightest hesitation, because he saw that Li Li's face was too calm, and his tone was low and solemn.

As a general who has been by Li Li's side for a long time, Huan Fei knows Li Li's every move and change in his expression very well. The calmer Li Li's face is, the more he cares in his heart, and the low tone of his voice means that things are extremely strict and the situation is not good. At this moment, Huan Fei naturally will not hesitate, nor can he hesitate, raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, how can he retreat in times of crisis!

"Good! You've never let me down, and hopefully the same will be true this time. Li Li gently patted Huan Fei's shoulder and said.

Immediately, Li Li walked lightly to the middle of Zhou Yu and Lu Su, and said in a harmonious voice: "I thought that this return trip would not encounter difficulties, but I didn't think that people were not as good as heaven, and if I relaxed a little, disaster would come to the door, which made people feel quite helpless." Since ancient times, those who have been blessed by heaven must have suffered many hardships, and there must be gains and losses. This time I traveled south, fortunately, with the help of two virtuous brothers, I Li Li and even the entire Xiliang army were like a tiger with wings, and their strength became stronger and stronger. However, how much you get often means that you have to give something, and things that are not earned for nothing have always been non-existent.

Heaven is impermanent. It seems that there is no fairness at all, but in fact it is extremely fair. Now gambling with outlaws like Gan Ning seems to be accidental, but in fact it is inevitable and unavoidable. At this point, it is useless to worry and worry about it, but the only way to go is to face it calmly. ”

As he spoke, Li Li's words turned sharply and said in a deep voice: "Although Gan Ning, the leader of the Jinfan thief, is a brave general. But his actions are too extreme, his methods are fierce and vicious, and his habits are too great. If I can't let him suffer a heavy setback and taste unforgettable suffering, even if this person can be of use to me. and there shall be no good end in the future. Rather than this, it is better to let him taste the bitterness early. lest he die unexpectedly in the future.

Although the Poison Dragon Pond is a place that Gan Ning and others are familiar with. But that doesn't mean he's going to win, and I'm going to lose. As the saying goes: It is in man to make things happen. I, Li Li, conceited the life of a natural water dragon, and I was able to fall into the surging flood unscathed, but now in the face of the so-called dragon, what is there to fear? The power of heaven and earth is still helpless against me, what a mere beast! ”

After saying that. Li Li smiled at Zhou Yu and Lu Su and said, "Later, I will take care of myself for my brother, and I can't take care of the safety of the two virtuous brothers, and I hope you two will be more careful." In addition, Big Joe and Little Joe are both weak women. I need you to take care of it. Remember, don't seek to kill the enemy to vent your hatred, just protect your own safety. ”

"Brother, don't worry, we will live up to our mission!" Zhou Yu and Lu Su bowed in response.

"That's very good." Li Li smiled, immediately hugged Xiao Qiao into his arms, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, we are here to eliminate harm for the people, eradicate the dragon, and benefit the people, fortunately." Hahaha! ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Half an hour later, Li Li and his entourage of six people followed Gan Ning and others to get off the boat and land, and slowly walked along the east shore to the depths of the canyon.

After a while, the dense fog suddenly cleared, making everyone's eyes suddenly brighten.

Suddenly, a deep blue oval pool jumped into view, the water surface emitted a mist visible to the naked eye, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance that could not be explained.

Compared with the vast Yangtze River, the area of the deep pool is not too large, covering an area of dozens of acres, and the straight-line distance between the two banks is 100 meters. However, this deep pool is located between the lofty mountains and mountains, the bottom is not visible, the water of the pool is clear and blue, and the blue is secluded, which makes people feel frightened to see.

There are no birds flying in the air on both sides of the deep pool, there are no beasts and reptiles, the reef on the shore presents a strange dark black, and the mountains and forests on both sides are bare and red, and there is no grass to grow, and there is a dead silence.

"Huh?" When squinting his eyes and observing the situation around the deep pool, Li Li suddenly saw Gan Ning and the others acting sneakily, and each took out the cloth towel that had been prepared long ago from his arms to cover his mouth and nose.

Seeing that Gan Ning and the others were suspicious, Li Li didn't know what was going on, and he was very puzzled. At this time, he smelled a burst of fragrant fragrance in the air, looked up and looked around, but saw that there was no grass growing within a few miles around the deep pool, how could there be a fragrant fragrance?

For a moment, Li Li suddenly became alert, immediately held his breath, closed his eyes and carefully sensed whether there was anything abnormal in his body. After holding his breath, Li Liton felt a slight tightness in his chest, a heavy head, and a faint feeling of dizziness. When I opened my eyes again, there was a blur in front of my eyes, as if there were countless petals falling in front of me, which was weird.

"Everyone be careful, cover your mouth and nose, this fragrance is poisonous!" After identifying the reason, Li Li was taken aback, and immediately raised his hand to signal Zhou Yu and the others to stop, and reminded in a deep voice.

Zhou Yu, Lu Su and others changed their complexions when they heard this, and Er Qiao's delicate body trembled and almost fell, but fortunately, Li Li quickly reached out to help their sisters. Then Li Li didn't say much, and casually tore off his underwear and cloth to cover his mouth and nose, while Zhou Yu and others followed suit, covering their faces and covering their faces.

At this time, Li Li looked coldly at Gan Ning, who was walking in front, his eyes were extremely cold, and his eyes were full of murderous energy. It happened that Gan Ning noticed the movement of Li Li's six people behind him, looked back, and met Li Li's volley. In the moment when the cold eyes were facing each other, a murderous aura suddenly appeared, and the life-and-death struggle began to be staged from this moment.
