Summer 2 Volume 12 Memories (Wood)

Ye Yuchang saw that Shen Yu no longer spoke, so he asked him to rest.

He arched his hand to the little girl in the square wooden cage on the other side, and went up to the deck to take the helm.

The white-haired little girl was sitting in a wooden cage that was not too small or small, bound by chains and three iron locks.

The chain is engraved with golden lines, which is a kind of talisman invented by the Chang people, which can block the aura and spiritual quality emitted by inhuman things, in other words, this is a kind of insurance added to their own ship after the Ye family's elders went to sea in their early years and encountered a ghost ship.

She's a ghoul after all.

To be honest, this insurance is very frivolous, it can't protect the whole ship and is useless, and no one would think about getting a ghoul on board on weekdays.

But in any case, thanks to it, Ye Yuchang was able to leave the little girl on the boat with confidence.

There is not only one ghost ship on the sea, besides, who knows if the ghost ship encountered a few days ago will still have the strength to pursue the Yun Pai, the ghoul can track the unique smell of the same kind, in order not to spread her scent and reveal the traces of the Yun Pai, Ye Yuchang can only let her succumb to the cage.

No, it can't be said to be condescending, it is more appropriate to say that it is captivity.

Moreover, it is ominous for a feminine woman to get on board, and anyone who runs a boat in the West Sea will inherit this ancestral precept, or rules of conduct.

Some of the rules of conduct are based on experience, and some are based on prejudice, although not everyone in the West Sea is superstitious about the rules of conduct, but there are always people who believe in them.

On the one hand, in order to avoid the ghost ship, and on the other hand, in order to reassure the survivors of the whole ship, under the shackles of these two reasons, the little girl had to stay in the cage.

Except for Ye Yuchang, no one in the surviving crew dared to enter this cabin because she was here.

All this, the little girl knows very well, she is a ghoul, an inhuman thing after the death of the living, even if she is not on the ship, she will always try her best to avoid the world and have taboos in her heart when she lives on the ground in the future.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, the most difficult time has passed, and other difficulties will always pass. ”

She clasped her hands to her chest in the cage, not sure whether to comfort herself or others.

"Even if you live like me, it's a gift from others, you can't give it up easily, give up, I'm sorry for Xiao Jiang, and if you give up, I'm sorry for your parents, right?"

The sound fell in the cabin and provoked echoes from the listeners.

Shen Yu closed his eyes and replied: "Even if I don't give up, whether I live or die is not something that can be influenced by my thoughts alone, and besides, I don't want to listen to a ghoul preach, don't you feel guilty?"

He knew that it was this ghoul who saved him, but it was also her, the ghoul, who had brought the ghost ship.

After all, it is an inhuman thing, and Shen Yu can't look at it as an equal to a dead thing without a heartbeat in his heart.

"As a deceased, if you don't get on the boat, I will hurt my leg? There will be dead people on the ship? Don't think that if you don't say a few words of comfort without pain, the sin can be brushed away, and after all, it is something you have invited. ”

As soon as the words came out, Shen Yu's eyes that had been closed could not see the little girl's expression, but he seemed to hear the sound of the other party's deep breathing.

"I, I, and I have lived, though only twelve years. ”

The little girl's voice was a little choppy and choppy, but she still said what she wanted to say, "I have been dead for two years, and I know very well the difference between yin and yang, so I feel that it is a pity for anyone who does not want to live before he dies. ”

Hearing this, Shen Yu opened his eyes and said tepidly: "No way, no matter what you were like when you were alive, you have a weak relationship with the yang world now, and one foot has stepped into the underworld, if you exist, it will inevitably cause unwarranted disasters, and it will affect the living, there is no way...... Just now, I was serious, sorry, but I really can't help it. ”

"Where, where, it's something I'm doing......"

The little girl paused, and then said, "But you may survive." ”

"This has nothing to do with whether you give up or not, it all depends on God. ”

Shen Yu said and wanted to point to God, but he couldn't lift his heavy hand, so he had to give up.

"Last night, that is, on the night of the third day of your fainting, seeing that you had not woken up yet, the owner of the Ye ship hesitated for a long time, and finally moved the goods to be transported to Helian Bay, and took out a small pottery bottle from it, which was the medicinal juice used by Zheng Peijun, a famous Dan family in Nanyan, to remove knife wounds and evil diseases, and he poured it on you deep in the wound. ”

"Is that potion expensive?"

"According to the Ye Shipowner's words, the four Yunpai are of the same value as that vial. ”

Shen Yu gasped, a warmth welled up between his eyebrows, and his mouth complained: "Tsk! trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble!"

After talking about four troubles in a row, he took a long breath, and countless troubles were still spinning in his heart, and his heart was spinning for a long time, and he only sighed in a low voice: "That-then I can only ...... Struggling anymore. ”

The little girl in the wooden cage asked in surprise, "Why do you have another thought?"

"It's best not to worry about people when they die, otherwise they will still be very tired after they die, not to mention, if they don't repay the kindness, they are in a hurry to wait for death, and they are too irresponsible. ”

Looking at Shen Yu, who seemed to be a little angry lying in the futon, the little girl was envious again.

Since she died, the little girl has been unable to understand many things.

It's nice to be alive to be able to feel the changes and tastes of countless emotions.

She clutched her chest, which wasn't beating at all, and sighed.

Suddenly, Shen Yu asked her, "What's your name?"

"Eh, why all of a suddenβ€”"

"It's just curiosity. ”

"Ginger, ginger is born, ginger is ginger, thinking is missing, and the living are alive. ”

Shen Yu let out an "oh", and then closed his eyes again, in order to survive, he couldn't waste any bit of strength in his body now.

What a strange person, the living are so elusive?Jiang Niansheng thought to himself.

Feeling the vitality that slowly flowed through some parts of her body like a stream, the girl also leaned on the cage, and fell into a deep sleep while thinking of her old friend and the person who saved her from being a pure dead.

It is not easy to exist in the world, and I must live.

Hope all is well...... It's going to be fine, it's going to be okay on this ship.

In the dream, the girl, who was no longer alive, whispered to herself in fear.

Ye Yuchang walked onto the deck, facing the morning sun, blowing the sea breeze for a while, replacing a crew member who had been in charge of the helm for a long time, asking him to do some less tiring work, and he took the helm for a while.

The crew smiled reluctantly and thanked the captain, the Yun Pai had broken a lot of people, and the survivors were exhausted by the escape at sea these days.

Ye Yuchang understood that none of them had collapsed yet, and these crew members were very tenacious.

If he was mentally unstable, he would have thrown away life and death, and the little girls in the cabin of the ship would have attacked in groups.

The crew picked up a stack of knives on the deck and was about to go down to the cabin, when Ye Yuchang's eyes glanced at the knives in the hands of the crew, and suddenly stopped the crew again.

Looking at the agile blade and brightly colored equipment in the hands of the crew, he asked, "This knife doesn't look like ours?"

"Well, it's not, it's the ghouls we killed when we jumped into the gang, and I've heard from my ancestors that ghouls don't remember the smell of their weapons, so after throwing their corpses into the sea, I thought about collecting their knives and seeing if I could resell them in a few days to make up for some damage. ”

"The brethren have been afflicted...... After you go down and put the knife away, rest today."

As soon as he heard the word loss, Ye Yuchang's eyes dimmed, and the hand holding the rudder gradually lost its strength.

The dead crew members could not be replaced, and there were still many brothers whose fate was uncertain lying in the cabin of the rocking oar.

In order to survive and save people, he also moved the goods of the guests.

He looked at his empty fingers, secretly hating that he hadn't made an inch of progress after thirteen years after realizing his vitality, and had stayed in the initial realm of Mengxian, looking at the threshold of the realm of creation.

Only when you reach the realm of creation can you know how to refine the creation element with your inner power, and then you can barely count the Zhou technique.

It's self-evidently weak.

"Alas, the bereavement of the dead guys' families...... The Nanmu that was to be sent to the Yang family's branch consumed a lot, as well as the medicine prepared by the Yan Guodan family, which was also for the Yang family, and it was only a small box in total, ah-how could a few knives be compensated......"

As soon as he thought of this, Shen Yu's words seemed to flash in his ears again.

'yes, I'm good if I survived. ’

At the same time, the words of grandfather Ye Qiongjia echoed in his heart.

'It's good to be alive, and when you're alive, the problems that can be solved with money are not dead, and those who beg for a living at sea can't lose to something other than the sea, and besides, as long as you're alive, there will always be something good.' ’

It is far from the Changxin Wharf on the southeast side of Helian Bay, and you can arrive in three days, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, so there will always be a way.

The young captain's hand tightened his grip on the steering wheel again, and he concentrated on manipulating the Qiyun Platoon.

With the sails of the crew in charge, the wind sailed for an hour, and the sea gradually covered the surface with a layer of light gauze-like mist, and as the ship deepened, the light gauze became thicker and thicker, and gradually turned into a thick mosquito net.

The sunlight was also slowly obscured by the air mist and became hazy.

This is not the first time Ye Yuchang has encountered this situation, he yelled at the bow of the boat in his dumb voice: "Hey, everyone, be careful! It's foggy, where is the old eel? You have like a monkey with your hands and feet, you light the whale oil lamp and hang it on the top of the mast!"

A skinny young crew member found the whale swimming lantern, walked to the surviving mast, and was about to climb up, Ye Yuchang puffed up strangely: "I said let the old eel-"

I can't go on.

He suddenly remembered that after the initial escape a few days ago, he had wrapped the dead crew in a cloth and thrown it into the sea for a funeral on the spot, and the old eel was among them, and he had taught himself how to sail.

"Who is to blame?" Ye Yuchang muttered to himself in a complicated mood, and the subsequent words were all in his heart.

That little girl has the same yin qi as those ghouls, but I always feel that there is a little bit of living anger in her, which is unreasonable......

And as a ghoul, she knows how to do things, and she doesn't answer some questions she asks these days.

Suspicious, really suspicious.

Thinking of the injuries on the ship, Ye Yuchang's heart ached.

Wouldn't she just be able to get on this ship if she didn't die? Wouldn't she just be able to avoid the ghouls and not get on the ship?

Wait a minute, get on board?

A meteor crossed Ye Yuchang's mind, and he immediately stopped a passing crew member and asked him if he would be at the helm.

So, Ye Yuchang asked him to replace him.

And Ye Yuchang himself went down to the cabin, found the charts, hydrological books and rumor books in a dimly lit cubicle, lit a small whale oil lamp, and looked at the atlas by the light of the lamp.

"I set off in the Yigang of Zhangguo, that Boyan Shen Yu paid some money in Zhangjiagang in Yannan and asked me to ferry him to Changxin Wharf in Helian Bay, and that little girl was on the boat in a wild port in the southwest of Jin Kingdom two days after carrying Boyan Shen Yu, it should be a random boat, there is no premeditation, what has happened in the southwest of Jin in recent years......"

Ye Yuchang flipped through the rumor book "with a bang", and this small book recorded all kinds of fashionable rumors from various countries that he usually recorded when chatting with his peers when he was in Hong Kong.

Get rid of the exaggerated jokes and find the rumors that happened in the southwest of the Jin Kingdom.

"There it is!"

Ye Yuchang stopped on the page that remembered the two strange stories of "ghosts in the netherworld abducting and selling the neutrons of the beloved's family" and "ghost ships on the sea and the netherworld on the ground", and read them carefully.

After reading it, Ye Yuchang closed the book.

She should be the child of an abducted beloved family who escaped? But she is not very angry, and she is indeed not a person of the yang world, but to find her family or to use other methods? How to deal with it?

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Yuchang sighed and said: "This kind of thing, after docking in a few days, hand it over to a special person, although there is no temple at Changxin Wharf, you will definitely be able to find the magistrate of the Jin State Mansion, and it is right to find them!"

The magistrate is a low-level official set up by the government to retire and cure the demon.

Ye Yuchang hid his plan in his heart and went back to the deck.
