"What about the people in the village? I can't tell you about this kind of thing, old man. In short, the old man is just a boatman, so do this thing of carrying people across the river, and this is enough. ”

"It's getting late now, and if the three guest officers hurry aboard, they might still be able to stay at an inn. If the three guest officers continue to delay like this, I am afraid that they will not even be able to find the inn by then, and they will only be able to live on the streets. ”

"In short, at present, there should only be this boat of the old man, since the three guest officers have to cross the river, then I am afraid there is no other choice. Rather than spend the night in this wilderness and continue to cross the river by boat tomorrow, why not just take the old man's boat and get you safely to the other side of the river?"

"Besides, the three guest officers are not short of money. Rather than haggling with my old man like this here, it would be better to save time and get to the other side of the river as soon as possible. ”

The old man still has that kind of sincere eyes, in fact, when he thinks about it, he said it well. But the three people in front of them, their purpose seems to be more than just wanting to cross the river.

Why did he have to say so much to the ordinary merchants, because they valued time more than money, and they could easily figure out what they had said before.

After all, in this troubled world, everyone is busy with their own things. Then it doesn't seem to be that complicated to give money, cross the river, and then choose to take his boat back when he is done.

But the three people in front of them, they first cared about the bridge, but the bridge was gone, so why did they have to go to the bottom of it?

But they had already guessed the answer, so why should they go on and pursue the village? Isn't it the most important thing for them to be able to cross the river and get to the other side?

The boatman couldn't figure it out, did the three people in front of him still want to take care of all the injustices in the world? But there are so many injustices in the world, can they take care of them?

The boatman looked at the three again.

"Listen to my old man's advice, young people have a great future, it is better to cross the river in peace and stability, and do not meddle in this matter. Isn't it just a little more money? What is this money compared to the time you wasted? Let's go over now and go about your own business. The boatman persuaded again.

But Yang Mengyan on the other side still didn't get on the boat.

"What the old man means by this is that the demons and monsters in this world are raging, and they are already so chaotic, so now even our human race itself is bullying us again, so is this a matter of course?"

"We cultivators, in line with the mission of saving the common people in the world, we slay demons and eliminate demons, and we defend the Tao wholeheartedly. But is this the way you selfish people who want to bully yourself?"

"Sure enough, we can kill foreign enemies, but we still can't save mortals like you. If you really want to talk about it, you are simply more hateful than those demons and monsters. ”

Yang Mengyan was indignant and kept talking. But Leng Yuexin saw that the situation was wrong, and quickly grabbed her.

But there is only one boat here, and if this boatman is also scolded by her, then do the three of them really want to spend the night here?

Although, if you can spend the night with her. What are you thinking about? The wilderness and cold wind in this place can scare you half to death, what else are you talking about? What's more, there is a little monk next to you, what should I do if I want to take the child with you?

"Well, old man, you better take us across the river first, my son is not short of money, my son will pay for this boat." Leng Yuexin opened her mouth to the boatman, and finally calmed down the conflict this time.

And Yang Mengyan is also very rare, and he didn't abuse Leng Yuexin anymore. Thinking about it at this time, she had a stomach full of anger in her heart, and she didn't want to talk anymore.

The three of them got into the boat, and the boatman began to slide slowly toward the other side of the river.

Several people had reached the center of the river, but they saw that a large number of bubbles began to bubble up on the surface of the water in the center.

"What's going on?" Yang Mengyan said again.

"I'm afraid of this place, there are still monsters. Yunshui replied.

All three looked at the boatman, and the boatman turned his head with the same sincere expression.

"Don't panic, the three guest officers, this is the river god here, specially protecting the wind and rain of our wait. And that's what I told you earlier, why the rest of them had to start adding money when they got to the center of the river. ”

"The river god keeps an eye on the passing ships, but he doesn't attack indiscriminately. However, such a scene is indeed a bit scary, so many guest officers will be willing to spend money and leave this place in a hurry. And that's why they're all here, and they're here to ask you to add money. ”

"After such a long time, most of the passengers who come and go have become accustomed to the price of the ferry twice. This has become an unspoken rule of our industry. But my old man has already said before, I will only ask for the price of that time, and will not let you increase the price again, so the guest officers can rest assured. ”

The boatman was still swinging his oars, as if he felt that the three of them looked like this, but he was afraid of his own increase.

But when his words fell, Yang Mengyan's expression began to become gloomy.

"It seems that there is a big problem in your village? I don't know what kind of thing is in this river, but you worship it as a river god. And it's right in the middle of the river, and it's more like helping you, trapping all passers-by. ”

"What kind of pact have you made with it? You worship the monster and have reached a tacit agreement with it to harm others who are also human beings with you. ”

"Have you all forgotten that you are still a Terran?"

After Yang Mengyan finished speaking, his voice was already unprecedentedly angry.

As a disciple of Kunlun Mountain, she is also a patrolman, and since she was a child, she has been in contact with the teachers and commanders, those words of slaying demons and destroying demons, and taking the common people in the world as their own responsibility. It wasn't until she learned something and went to Jinling City that she began to become a head catcher, and she really succeeded in slaying demons and demons, taking the common people in the world as her own responsibility.

But in this world, shouldn't it be based on the human race? But based on the human race, why should these people at this time join forces with monsters to bully their own kind?

So, she was angry, angry like never before.

"I'm in charge of this matter. Yang Mengyan spoke again.

"Then it's up to you, anyway, my old man is just a boatman, and he can't manage so many things. However, my old man still wants to remind you not to speak ill of the river god, because this is disrespectful to the god and will be punished by heaven. The boatman replied.

"Damnation, I don't believe it, scolding a monster who does evil, scolding a group of stupid and greedy people, I still have to suffer God's curse?" Yang Mengyan was furious, and he couldn't wait to kill the monster that had bubbled up at this bottom of the water at this time.

However, this matter is not yet clear, and the specific reasons are not clear at all. Not to mention her water nature, even if she shoots at this time, she can kill the monsters under the water, but how can she wake up those stupid and greedy people?

After killing this demon, who can guarantee that they will not promote new monsters? So the root of this problem must be able to cut off, and the obsession in their hearts can only be done.

And just as she was thinking like this, Yun Shui beside her also spoke at the same time.

"When the Buddha practiced in this world, he was just wearing a beggar's clothes, and in order to teach the Dharma, he suffered a lot of calamities and ridicule. But he never said that those who insulted him would be punished by heaven. ”

And he has always encouraged me to practice Buddhism, to practice asceticism, and to practice forbearance and humiliation. He said that only in this way can it be achieved as the ultimate avenue. ”

"Even the Buddha is advocating the practice of asceticism and forbearance, and even more so here, it is not clear what the monster is? Why can't he let people speak ill of it? Freedom of speech lies in everyone's heart. If it's not good, why can't people say it?"

"And it's going to be damned, so if you look at it this way, it's not a good person at all. ”

Yun Shui said, and then became serious.

"No, it's not human. It should be said that it is not a good animal at all. Leng Yuexin corrected.
