There are six or seven small sandbank islands in the southeast of Chongming Island, collectively known as Changxing Island.
There are very few residents on the island, but it is a good place to grow oranges. There are large orchards and the slightly sour and refreshing smell of orange trees is everywhere.
When there was a large-scale migration on Chongming Island, the people responsible for guarding the orchards on these small islands also heard about it and left early.
No one knows since when, there have been some strange figures in this orchard warehouse.
Úrsula is sitting at the table, with long burgundy hair tied loosely behind her back. She wears a brown short-sleeved hunting jacket over a black silk shirt, and is tightly tied with a copper-colored belt. The trouser legs are tucked into long leather boots, and the legs are crossed, with only the heels of the leather boots resting on the ground.
She was making cigarettes very carefully, soaking them in high-strength white wine and honey water, frying the dried tobacco again, placing it on the paper in handfuls, sprinkling a little spice, and even paying attention to the texture of the tobacco, adjusting When it's intact, start rolling it into a long and thin tube shape.
“It is said that sixty or seventy years ago, on the Franconian battlefield, light cavalry used gunpowder clips and paper to wrap tobacco and smoke it to relieve the pressure on the battlefield, and invented the first batch of hand-rolled cigarettes. Later this also became a culture."
"Compared to the East. Human dry pipes, water pipes, and pipes produced by our local luxury goods companies, hand-rolled cigarettes have a calming step, like offering sacrifices to gods and completing prayers."
Wusu. Na's voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing the spices on the paper.
Countries around the world have a history of using spices to offer sacrifices to gods. It is not that uncommon to use tobacco as a sacrifice.
"A pirate who came out of a private fishing village gradually became a well-known adventurer, naval general, and even a duke. Even princes and princesses are proud to be your short-term lover. The wars you have experienced in this life should be Much more than me."
Xu Zhixing sat by the window, looking at the scenery outside, and said, "This battle on Chongming Island has not officially started yet, but it has already made people like you possible. Are you feeling the pressure?"< br>
Úrsula frowned and said: "What does this life of mine mean?"
"It sounds like my life is coming to an end soon. All the things I have experienced before, At most, it can only be regarded as the first half of my life."
She was a little unhappy, "Xu, if your art of speaking can be one tenth of your beauty, the relationship between the two of us should be better. Can be closer”
Xu Zhixing said with a cold face: "It seems that you are really under pressure, and you are so superstitious that you care about such a trivial matter."
"You should believe in your ax and your power, not in This kind of thing, Pay attention to the details.”
But Ursula smiled and rolled up the cigarette in her hand: “What do you think the god I worship is?”
She snapped her fingers. Lit the cigarette in his hand.
The cigarette was burning, but it was not just the cigarette that was burning, but also the pure vitality flowing from Úrsula's body.
In the legends of the Dutch, external energy is not called the natural force of heaven and earth, but is regarded as a supernatural force.
They believe that there is a secret space called "Fetal Sea" between heaven and earth.
All supernatural forces first flow out of the "fetal sea" and then come to the natural world, causing all kinds of natural disasters, ghosts, and abnormal phenomena such as sea monsters.
So they call the vitality of heaven and earth "the power of the womb sea", and the true energy in the human body is called "the source of life".
Due to this difference in cultural concepts, they value true energy very much. Even if they have cultivated to a state equivalent to the full opening of the three dantians, they are not willing to let go of their skills. At most, they are only willing to bless them in body surface.
And if you practice to the level equivalent to returning elixirs, you only need to use the power of the fetal sea to hurt people remotely, not to mention the use of your own life essence.
But now, Úrsula actually mixed her life essence into the tobacco mist, forming golden smoke clouds, floating one by one towards the long box on the table.
There was only a gap in the box, and the whale drank from the cow and swallowed up all the golden smoke.
Xu Zhixing looked at the box: "Is that your weapon? But it doesn't seem to be the ax it was back then..."
"It can be considered a new harvest in the past two years."< br>
With deep affection in her eyes, Úrsula stared at the things in the box and said with a chuckle, "It was only after I got this treasure that I discovered that our country's cultivation philosophy is most suitable for using living things. Things are used as weapons.”
A sudden thunder exploded outside, interrupting the conversation between the two of them.
The thunder originally rumbled, but it was only on distant land. When it reached Changxing Island, only some aftertaste could be heard.
After half an hour, the thunderstorm has not stopped, but has become more and more intense.
The thunder just now struck the orchard on Changxing Island, splitting an old tree in half and igniting fire and smoke.
"This storm..."
Usuna asked doubtfully, "It doesn't seem normal?"
Xu Zhixing looked at the sky outside the window, stared for a moment, and said slowly: "It's Wu Lei Zhengfa."
"Five Thunder Zhengfa...Tang En?"
Usuna also looked out the window, "It can actually affect the weather changes in an entire area. This great scholar's The means are even more difficult to calculate than Arthur's."
"The question is, what's the use of causing such a big thunderstorm? No matter how heavy the rain is, it can't pose a threat to a top powerhouse. Instead, it's a waste of his own strength."
Xu Zhixing is thoughtful : "You are not walking on the path that ordinary heavens and humans follow. Naturally, you don't understand the power of heaven and earth. It can be seen everywhere and involves changes." "Songjiang Prefecture is full of water vapor, and the water mist in the harbor and rivers is transpiration. In the next few days, it should have been... It's raining heavily, Tang En probably spent half an hour, step by step, leading the thunderstorm in the future to be released today."
"Even if he did some other tricks, he followed the trend. The normal inhalation of heaven and earth vitality can make up for the consumption, and there will be no obvious decrease in strength."
"As for why he took the risk of causing this abnormal heavy rain..."< br>
Xu Zhixing's eyes flickered and he stood up suddenly, "I understand, this Su Hanshan is probably a great master in Feng Shui, a being who can truly mobilize the power of Feng Shui."
"If it weren't for Tang En's Dao In terms of means, Su Hanshan’s home field advantage must be very important.”
Although Ursula didn’t understand what the power of Feng Shui meant, she also understood the meaning of the home field advantage. The cigarette held between her fingertips burned at a very fast speed. , and inadvertently sped up a little bit more.
Her eyes were focused on the cigarette, and her body and mind were thinking about that little bit of fire.
The tongue of fire suddenly puffed out, and a brilliant glow, as bright as the sunset, fell into the long box. The entire roll of paper burned, leaving not even a trace of ash.
"It is difficult enough to make the innate leader unable to escape, but there are still unknown advantages. It seems that our little thoughts should be put aside for now."
Usuna flicked her fingers, "The British took action first, so as a sign of sincerity, we should not fall behind."
The thunder and lightning in the sky flashed faster and faster, and dark clouds rolled in.
The sky in the direction of Chongming Island is still only dim gray-white.
The sky in the direction of Songjiang Prefecture is stirring like large groups of ink-colored waves, from which waterfall-like rain curtains hang down, heading towards Chongming Island.
Changxing Island is located between the two. Seeing the rain curtain pouring over the small islands, it reaches the sky above the warehouse.
Xu Zhixing's figure stepped out step by step, almost synchronizing with the progress of the rain curtain.
The thunder and wind are swift, the island trees, the fishy smell of sea water and the fresh smell of the land are mixed together.
Xu Zhixing walked step by step, blending in with the scent of everything under the heavy rain.
Úrsula watched him move forward, but she couldn't see where he was, and she couldn't help but recall a past event.
In the battle between Xu Zhixing and Lao Sato, Xu Zhixing only made one move from beginning to end.
He walked among the Fuso army, stepped over large ships and small boats, passed bullets and cannonballs, and walked behind old Sato.
Then he punched out the sinister and arrogant old man, and also smashed three nearby warships in one fell swoop!
That's because his fists are too fast and too hard.
It was also because, before he punched, even the high-spirited old Sato himself only noticed a trace of unspeakable uneasiness, and it was not clear where that uneasiness came from.
"Without distinction between internal and external, he suppresses the art of killing in the hearts of all, the most terrifying killer in the world in a hundred years..."
Usuna's tongue swept across her lips, her lips turned bright red, and she couldn't bear to Keep smiling.
"Very good, let me provide you with cover."
The ebony wooden box on the wooden table suddenly broke through the top of the warehouse on its own without any wind, and flew towards outside world.
The speed of this box is faster than the speed of wind and rain.
It only took less than ten seconds to go from the heavy rain area to the light rain area.
The box flew over the waves, flew to Chongming Island, and crashed down.
Boom! !
The lid of the wooden box popped open, revealing the black ax inside.
Úrsula’s palm stretched out from the side and grasped the handle of the axe, and a high-pitched voice came from her mouth.
"The military commander from the lowland kingdom, the Grand Duke of the sea, comes to visit the new star in the east!"
Standing on the southern edge of Chongming Island, she looked across the village and saw the eastern tidal flat in the distance. Stone tablets, and the people on them.
While speaking those words, Úrsula flipped her wrist, driving the entire ax to swing in a full arc.
There is no sound of wind, no rumble.
A few seconds later, there were "cracking, booming" sounds of thousands of things breaking and falling, converging into a sound wave.
Within sight, everything in the entire fishing village, including the tall trees, the large tombs of each family's ancestral graves...
and hundreds of houses, were all neatly chopped off from a height of four feet above the ground. Break! !
