Volume 2 Chapter 102 of the Peak of the Martial Arts
Guo Jia didn't know where he was, but he saw that the fog was thick here, and he couldn't see the distant scene at all.
He remembered taking a breath of the plant's scent, and then his eyes flickered and he appeared here.
Guo Jia wondered in his heart, but he was obviously in prison, how could he appear in a strange environment in a blink of an eye?
Is this an illusion?
But if this is an illusion, this feeling is too real, Guo Jia can clearly feel every inch of his body, even the moist mist in the air can be felt clearly on his body.
He knew it had something to do with the strange plant, but he still had no idea why it was the way it was.
Rushing.
At this time, there was a sound of oars paddling not far away, Guo Jia looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a hazy shadow in the thick fog, the shadow was getting closer and closer, and the sound of the water was getting clearer and clearer.
I saw that the boat was not big, it was about the same size as the small boat carrying people at the riverside ferry, and there was a man in a black robe standing on the boat, holding an oar, Guo Jia could not see his appearance.
The man in the black robe rowed in front of Guo Jia in a boat, and he asked Guo Jia in a hoarse voice, "Did the guest officer cross the river?" ”
River?
It turned out that there was a river in front of him, but fortunately Guo Jia didn't rush over, otherwise he would have fallen into the river.
"Yes."
Guo Jia replied, and when the boatman heard this, he leaned the boat to the shore, and then said to Guo Jia: "If you want to cross the river, then come here." ”
Guo Jia glanced at the distance from the boat to the shore, it was still a foot or two away from him, Guo Jia cautiously walked a few steps forward, and found that this was already the edge of the riverbank, and when he stepped out, it was empty and nothing.
Even if he gets a little closer, there is still a distance of more than one zhang from the river bank to the boat, if he is a fierce man like Dian Wei, let alone one zhang, he can jump over the distance of three zhang, but Guo Jia's words are a different matter, this distance of more than one zhang is simply a chasm for him.
"Why are you still stunned?"
Seeing that Guo Jia had not come up, the boatman urged.
Guo Jia had no choice, he approached the bank of the river, then squatted down and looked down, he hoped that the river was not too deep, and then he could go all the way to the side of the boat and climb up again.
He poked his head out and looked into the river, but saw that the river on the bank of the river was covered with a thick layer of white mist, and he could not see the river at all, let alone how deep it was.
Guo Jia stretched out his hand to remove the white mist, and he could finally see the water below, but the water was black, and he didn't know how deep it was.
At this time, Guo Jia saw his own shadow from the water, and for some reason, the reflection of the river was very clear, even clearer than the shadow in the mirror, as if he was looking at another self face to face.
Guo Jia looked at his shadow in the water curiously, and suddenly, the shadow actually smiled at him, which startled Guo Jia, and then, the shadow in the water gradually changed, only to see that he in the shadow gradually became old, and then turned into a white bone.
At this time, the boatman suddenly said to Guo Jia: "This is the life of a person, birth, old age, sickness and death, whether you are a beggar or an emperor, you can't escape the laws of nature, so why do you want to change the established fate, go with the flow, and live this life easily, isn't it good?" ”
When Guo Jia saw this unusual scene, he knew that this was not in reality, maybe it was just like the dream he entered after drinking drunken life and dreaming of death, but this place was too far away from the fairyland at that time.
Guo Jia said to the boatman: "Having said that, if everyone does not dare to face difficulties and escape from fate, then this world is a person who does nothing, although that kind of life is easy, but it is meaningless, Guo Jia naturally likes to face difficulties, and would rather live and work hard and achieve some achievements, rather than do nothing and live a life." ”
"Hahaha, you're a little interesting, come here, I want to see what kind of accomplishment a person like you can have?"
Although the boatman said this, he did not see him row the boat closer to the riverbank, Guo Jia's face showed a look of embarrassment, the boatman saw this, picked up the oar and knocked on the side of the boat, and said to Guo Jia: "You come along here." ”
Guo Jia looked towards the place pointed by the boatman, only to see that it was empty, there was nothing, Guo Jia didn't know why the boatman let him go over, if he passed like this, wouldn't he fall into the river?
Seeing Guo Jia's hesitation, the boatman said coldly: "If you don't have the guts, or don't believe what I said, then turn around and go back as soon as possible, I'll just think what you just said is a fart." ”
Guo Jia smiled slightly, no longer hesitated, and walked in the direction pointed by the boatman.
Guo Jia stepped on it, only to feel that there was suddenly something to settle on in the empty place, although he couldn't see it, he could clearly feel that there was something supporting his feet underneath.
Guo Jia no longer had any doubts, and walked along this invisible road towards the boat.
Seeing Guo Jia walking on the boat without fear, the boatman smiled and said: "Haha, you kid is really kind, then I'll give you a ride, don't regret it!" ”
Guo Jia arched his hand and said, "Brother Lao, the boat." ”
The boatman took up the oars and threw them into the water, and the boat swam into the river.
