"The water demon is here again?"

Chen Mo's expression changed, he let go of her, pulled her to sit on the bed, and said, "It's probably the water demon that's causing trouble again. Stay in the room, don't wander around, and close the doors and windows."

Chen Mo confessed and left the room.

Ning Yuelu looked at Chen Mo's back, thinking about his caring tone just now, and while she was happy, she felt a little more sentimental.

……

"What happened?" The treasure ship shook violently. Chen Mo came to the bow and asked Fang Ze.

"The treasure ship was violently hit just now. I suspect that the water demon from the Ten Thousand Mountains is chasing me again."

Fang Ze looked into the water, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly.

The magical cannon installed on the treasure ship is also difficult to aim.

On winter nights, the wind is biting.

This kind of environment is really torturous.

"Open up and let all the royal guards pay attention to the movements in all noble rooms."

Outside, Chen Mo did not call Zhang Zhang as Brother Zhang.

The show girl disappeared inexplicably, and there were no signs of damage to the room. Chen Mo suspected that someone had quietly boarded the boat while the water demon was causing trouble, and then kidnapped the show girl.

"No."

Just as he opened his mouth to respond, the water surface exploded, and a tentacle rushed out of the water and slapped the treasure ship hard.

With a bang, sawdust flew into the air, and the huge force caused the entire treasure ship to tilt slightly, and many officers and soldiers fell into the water.

"Save people quickly." Fang Ze's face changed drastically.

The officers and soldiers on the ship lowered the rope.

Chen Mo was also shocked. Looking at the tentacles, weren't they the tentacles of an octopus?

This is a canal, a freshwater river, how come there are octopuses?

But when I think of it as the Demon Queen, I don’t feel weird anymore.

"Open, you lead two people to rescue people, and the rest, follow me upstairs."

Chen Mo told Zhang Zhang and took Jin Yiwei upstairs to check.

He found that all the officers and soldiers who were originally patrolling were on guard on the deck, and there was no one upstairs.

When passing by the first floor, Chen Mo looked at the feminine-looking eunuch still sitting there minding his own business, as if everything happening outside had nothing to do with him.

With a slight frown on his eyebrows, Chen Mo walked upstairs.

"Xie Xiaoqi, please take people to the second floor."

"Guo Xiaoqi, Tian Xiaoqi, take people to the fourth and fifth floors respectively."

"For the rest, follow me to the third floor, and be careful not to fall into the water."

"No."

……

Chen Mo led the remaining people towards the third floor. At this time, the treasure ship was attacked by two tentacles, and it swayed even more violently. Everything in the ship was knocked to the ground, and its feet were unstable.

After finally reaching the third floor, another tentacle came out of the water and hit the treasure ship hard. The tentacle looked like a suction cup and was bigger than a human head.

Unable to help Chen Mo, the Jin Yiwei below slashed away with their swords.

The tentacles were not invulnerable. They quickly saw blood and retracted in pain.

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, another tentacle came out of the water and swept over. Chen Mo quickly dodged, but the Jin Yiwei behind him was unlucky and was directly slapped by the tentacle and thrown into the water.

A ball of blood emerged, and I was afraid that I was dead.

"Damn it, we're all hiding." Chen Mo shouted sharply.

Judging from the tentacles, this water monster must be very large, and it should be hiding under the treasure ship, unable to attack it at all.

If you go into the water, the Tianhe water is already bone-chillingly cold and so turbulent that going in there will undoubtedly be as close to death as it is.

Chen Mo was also helpless about this.

The shaking was so violent that the beautiful ladies in the room also screamed in panic.

"The treasure ship has taken on water, please come quickly." Someone shouted from downstairs.

"Boom!"

The underwater water demon didn't give everyone time to respond, and struck the treasure ship with another tentacle. As soon as the suction cups on the tentacles came into contact with the door, when the tentacles retracted, the entire wooden door was blown out.

Sawdust is flying.

The howling cold wind blew in, and the pretty girl inside the house turned pale with fright.

Under such commotion, Chen Mo couldn't stand firmly and had to hold on to the railing to avoid being thrown into the water.

At this time, he was still concerned with Xiu Nu's affairs, so it was better to save his life first.

I don’t know how long the commotion has been going on.

The water finally stopped.

The treasure ship at this moment already looks a bit shabby.

The officers and soldiers downstairs were busy repairing the water leak.

[On February 4th, the third year of Xuanhe. You were attacked by a water demon. For some unknown reason, the water demon temporarily retreated. You luckily escaped a disaster and obtained attribute points 2.]

The system prompt sounded in Chen Mo's mind.

"I don't know why?"

"No, everyone who is not dead, get up and check if any beautiful girls are missing."

"No."

Chen Mo first checked Ning Yuelu's room. Although he was guarding the door, there was no guarantee that anyone would enter through the window.

He opened the door and checked. Fortunately, Ning Yuelu was still there, which made her feel relieved.

But he didn't have time to chat with Ning Yuelu. As soon as he exited the room, Guo Xiaoqi, who was on duty on the fourth floor, hurriedly found him and said: "To report to Mr. Chen Qi, there is a nobleman named Cao Qin upstairs who is missing."

”

"What?" Chen Mo's expression changed. They were sent to protect the beautiful girls and escorted them to Beijing safely. Now one of them is missing, and they will inevitably be punished.

"Damn it, check carefully to see if any beautiful girls are missing." Chen Mo said.

"No."

After some inspection, I found that only the beautiful girl named Cao Qin was missing.

Chen Mo immediately found Fang Ze and told him about the matter.

"Another beautiful girl has disappeared!" Fang Ze frowned and said immediately: "This water demon must have come to disturb our attention. It must have an accomplice and took the opportunity to kidnap the beautiful girl."

Fang Ze punched the cannon in anger. With so many beautiful girls missing, he would definitely be beaten to death when he returned to the capital.

"Why does only one beautiful girl disappear every time? And I think the water demon clearly had a chance to destroy the treasure ship, so why did it suddenly retreat?" Chen Mo frowned, feeling that this was very strange.

Combining all these factors, Chen Mo felt that the water demon seemed to be testing something.

Kidnapping the showgirl is more like covering up some purpose.

Chen Mo pinched his chin and transformed into Sherlock Holmes in his mind.

But he doesn’t have the brains after all.

I really can’t think of anything deeper.

……

At the same time, in a cave at the bottom of the mountain.

The cave is connected to the canal.

Bubbles appeared on the water. After a while, a black shadow swam out of the water. The shadow's face was covered with a black cloth. Judging from its slim figure, it should be a woman. On her shoulders, there was still resistance.

Wearing a sack.

"Woo... no... don't come here..."

On the stone bed in the cave, four beautiful girls huddled together. The moment they saw the black shadow, each of them was so frightened that their bodies trembled, and they did not dare to resist at all.

After the black shadow put down the sack, he opened the mouth of the sack and let out the woman inside. He immediately gained some energy, took out a clean dress from the closet next to him, threw it on the stone bed, and said in a hoarse voice.
