Chapter 54 Desperate Situation

But if he had the skill of riding a horse, Li Qi would have run away long ago!

Besides, they couldn't go into the water on horseback.

Li Qi thanked his uncle several times in his heart.

Pai Bo Jin, facing people who can't swim, is really a great advantage.

It is precisely because of this that the Pai Bo Gang can stay safe. After all, the Li Zhuang Gang and the Shui Ma Gang are actually very strong in fighting, but as long as they are in the water, the Pai Bo Gang is invincible.

All the way down the river.

There was a constant sound of horse hooves behind, and sometimes they would even rush in front of Li Qi and try to stop Li Qi.

The soldiers did not give up and vowed to cut off Li Qi's head!

But this was in the dark mountain road. Li Qi went down the river like he was on a highway, but they couldn't do that on horseback.

If they were riding a dragon colt like an old horse, which could jump ten feet, even surrounded by clouds and fly lightly, Li Qi would definitely not be able to escape.

But these people's horses are all ordinary spirit horses.

Jumping three feet is already the limit, let alone jumping ten feet.

So, they were galloping through the mountains and forests. Although their speed was not slow, it was difficult for them to keep up with the winding river.

If the river was a straight line, Li Qi would definitely not be able to swim faster than them.

But... this is a mountain with a waterfall.

When Li Qi saw a waterfall, even if it was ten feet high, he dared to jump directly down. Anyway, there was a pool of water below, which would not be too shallow.

Divers dared to jump off a ten-meter high platform. His physique was more than twenty times stronger than theirs. He also had the thick skin of Niu Lishu, so he was not afraid of the impact. As long as he didn't fall directly on the rocks, he would be fine!

What if there were really rocks under the waterfall and the water was too shallow for a person to stand...

Then accept it!

As for escaping, is there a foolproof plan?

Li Qi has always been like this. Before something happened, he would definitely rack his brains to think about all possibilities, arrange all retreats and plans, and seem to be indecisive.

But after he really started to do things, he was absolutely single and would not hesitate to say anything.

When it's time to fight, fight!

This is not the first time to fight, what's there to be afraid of?

He dared to jump a waterfall of ten feet, but the pursuers did not dare to jump.

They were riding horses!

What if the horse's leg was broken if they jumped? What if they fell to death?

So, even if they were so angry, they had to take a detour, find a place with gentle terrain, and then continue to chase along the river.

They wanted to see how far this bird could swim in the river!

But they forgot one thing.

This is Baiyue.

There are 100,000 mountains here.

The intricate mountains and rivers, as well as the water veins, formed a complex network of water systems. Countless rivers and streams, more like the roots of various understory plants, spread and twist.

As long as they took a detour and let Li Qi out of sight for less than a minute, Li Qi would immediately take a detour and change the route.

Isn't it just hide-and-seek!

Come!

Let's see if it's you guys on horseback. At a glance, you can tell whether the soldiers from the plains are experienced or Li Qi, the old boatman, is experienced!

Li Qi didn't believe that these people could still track him down in this situation.

After jumping over at least four waterfalls and swimming for about twenty miles, Li Qi still had some energy left, but the sound of horse hooves behind him was much lighter.

He swam twenty miles in the water, but this group of people took a detour of at least a hundred miles.

This is the mountain road.

The straight-line distance is short, but when you really run, you will have to go around and around. As long as you can't fly, you will be prepared to go around a mountain at a close distance.

This is the scene of Shiwan Mountain in the deep mountains.

The two villages echoed each other from a distance. If you shout from the other side, you can hear it here.

But it takes a day to walk from one village to another.

The mountain road is so rugged.

This feature helped Li Qi a lot.

About three quarters of an hour later, Li Qi finally came out of the river.

He was blue and purple all over, his limbs were sore and weak, and he was exhausted.

The first feeling was cold.

At first, because he was very tired, his whole body was hot and he didn't feel cold.

But Li Qi overlooked one thing, this world has air.

The circulation of water veins will gather cold air, which gradually enters the blood vessels, freezing him so much that his whole body trembles. It seems that the joints between his bones are frozen, and even his eggs have shrunk into his body.

If he stays for another quarter of an hour, he might freeze to death and have no son in the future.

The second feeling is tiredness.

Really tired.

His muscles are no longer under his control, and he keeps twitching and shaking. His legs can no longer stand straight.

The three chances of Niu Lishu have been used up long ago. Without the support of Niu Lishu, it is absolutely impossible to swim at full strength for three quarters of an hour.

Only those who have tried know how tiring it is.

The triathlon only swims seven miles, but Li Qi has just swum at least sixty miles.

And the speed is much faster than the triathlon, and he has also jumped into the water many times, jumping from dozens of meters high.

This kind of physical labor has exhausted all the energy in Li Qi's body.

Cold and tired, Li Qi now has no strength to turn over except lying on the river beach to catch his breath.

He is completely a dead fish.

"Should he have... escaped?" Li Qi thought vaguely.

Too tired, probably hurt his vitality this time.

But it's not over yet.

"Little thief... you bastard, let me catch you, right..." A voice as weak as his came.

Li Qi immediately forced himself to stay alert and looked to the side.

Then, he saw a sergeant with a broken leg, leaning on a long sword, limping towards him.

There was no horse, and he didn't know what happened to his horse.

His face was ferocious as if he was a demon, and his broken leg was seriously injured, and even the bone had pierced through the skin.

Li Qi took a look and knew that this man must have jumped off the cliff in order to catch up with him by force, killing the horse first and breaking his leg.

It was a waterfall with a large drop, and falling into the water was already very dangerous. If there were rocks below, he must have a strong physique to not die, after all, he was wearing armor.

That was not light.

However, Li Qi sighed.

Although the other party was already at the end of his strength, how much better was he?

Although this man had a broken leg, at least he could still support himself and walk, and he could still hold a knife in his hand.

Li Qi also had a knife in his hand, which was left by the officer.

It must be much better than that of the sergeant.

But he couldn't even hold the knife, and couldn't even turn over.

However... surrendering is definitely not what Li Qi would do!

His hands and feet were shaking, and he couldn't even stand up, but he still took a breath, forced himself to sit up, drew out the long knife, and pointed it at the sergeant in front of him with his soft hands like noodles.

Although he couldn't even stand up, he could only sit and hold the knife, and had to drag it diagonally on the ground to stay up, but Li Qi still glared at the sergeant!

Come on! If you want my life, then come!

Let's see if I can exchange your life before I die!

Li Qi's expression was ferocious, and he risked his life to die with the other party!

Or, force the other party to give up the attack, continue to confront, and buy time for himself.
