Chapter 163: The Ferryman

The three of them were a little disapproving, unless it was an immortal, no matter how high a person's cultivation was, it would be impossible for him to take off in the air, Che Bifan asked: "Brother Du, I heard that there is an old fisherman in your village who has some dealings with the stone man, I wonder if you can introduce us to us?" ”

Du Feng was surprised when he heard this: "You really plan to go to sea to find the stone man?" ”

The three nodded firmly.

Du Feng sighed: "Lao Li at the head of the village is the only person in the village who has dealt with the stone people, but ...... Lao Li died a few months ago. ”

"Huh!?" The three of them were dumbfounded all of a sudden, and they couldn't imagine that the only person who had dealt with the Ten Deads had died, which was too unfortunate.

After being silent for a while, Zhang Tianduo said: "Brother Du, listen to what you just meant, everyone in the village knows the location of that island?" ”

Du Feng also understood the matter, and when he heard this, he said: "That isolated island is actually not far from the mainland, but the surrounding environment is too dangerous, and the people in the village will not take you there." ”

Zhang Tianduo Zhang was just about to speak, but Du Feng added: "I won't go if I give you any money, I don't believe you can try it." ”

Seeing Du Feng's face was serious, the three of them suddenly felt that this matter was very tricky.

After being silent for a while, Zhang Tianduo said: "No matter what, you have to give it a try, there must be a brave man under the so-called heavy reward." ”

Che Bifan nodded and said, "It's all about now." ”

When saying goodbye to Du Feng, Zhang Tianduo gave Du Feng three more silver dollars: "If there is no result for a while, we still have to live with you for a while, this money is our accommodation fee, you can use it to buy more delicious food." ”

Du Feng hesitated, took the silver dollar and said, "I know you don't like to hear it, but ...... I still want to advise you that you can't go to that island. ”

Che Bifan smiled: "If we can't find the stone man, our fate will not be much better, and it may be very dangerous to go to that small island, but I believe that it is man-made." ”

Seeing that the three of them were determined to find the stone man, Du Feng stopped talking, but secretly said in his heart: "It's hard to persuade the damned ghost with good words." ”

As Du Feng said, the three of them wandered around all afternoon, almost asking from door to door, but no matter how high the price was, no one dared to take the job.

In the evening, the three who had found nothing returned to Du Feng's house.

Seeing the disappointed looks of the three of them, Du Feng already understood eighty or ninety in his heart, and he didn't ask what the result was, after putting the food on the table, he said: "The stone man occasionally comes to the village, as long as you wait patiently, you may be able to see him too." ”

Che Bifan asked weakly: "How long is this occasionally?" ”

"It's hard to say, sometimes he comes every year and a half, sometimes every three or five years, when it depends on luck."

Zhang Tian shouted: "Three years and five years? We can't wait that long. ”

Han Jinyun also said: "I don't think it's really good, let's get a boat and go to sea to find it ourselves." ”

Che Bifan waved his hand and said: "The three of us don't know how to sail, and going to sea is no different from looking for death, and this matter has to be considered in the long run." ”

After thinking about it, he said again: "Let's scrape together the money on our bodies and see how much is left." ”

The three of them took out the silver dollars and counted them, and when they set off from Yin Yang Mountain, the three of them brought a hundred silver dollars, and all the way over, the three of them still had fifty-three silver dollars left, and this money pen was just enough to go back, but now is not the time to care about these things, Che Bifan said: "Well, I think so, try it again tomorrow morning, this time the price is fifty silver dollars, I don't believe that the people in this village are not moved by this money." ”

Du Feng on the side was dumbfounded, fifty silver dollars, that was enough for him to live for several years, he almost agreed to take the three of them to the island, but when he thought of the danger near the island, he still endured it.

At this moment, a hearty voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "Fifty silver dollars, what you said is true?" ”

"Who?!" The four of them got up at the same time and asked.

A burly and swarthy young man walked in from outside, and the young man said with a smile on his face, "I took this job." ”

Du Feng frowned when he saw the young man, and said in an unhappy tone: "Li Gou'er, what are you doing here?" ”

The young man smiled: "Yo, Lao Du, don't be so fierce, I'm not here to find you." ”

"Hmph, this is my home, you get out of here!" Du Feng said as he pushed the young man.

The young man retreated and said, "Lao Du, don't be embarrassed, and push Lao Tzu to turn his face again." ”

"Get out of your mother, others are afraid of you, I, Du Feng, am not afraid of you, get out!"

was pushed out of the door by Du Feng, and the young man also looked angry, but he obviously had more important things to do, so he didn't bother to pay attention to Du Feng's rudeness.

"I mean, what you just said is true?" Outside the door, the young man shouted.

Che Bifan was puzzled and asked Du Fengdao: "Brother Du, who is he?" ”

Du Feng snorted when he heard this, and said, "A scoundrel, don't pay attention to him." ”

The young man said: "Lao Du, you don't want to make an inch, say a bad word about Lao Tzu, beware of Lao Tzu burning down your dilapidated house!" ”

"You dare!"

"Lao Tzu dare, what's the matter?"

"Stinky scoundrel, I ......" As soon as Du Feng was angry, he picked up the broom and wanted to hit the young man, Zhang Tian grabbed him and asked, "Brother Du, don't be angry, who is this person?" ”

"Hmph, who else can it be, he is Lao Li's son, Lao Li gave birth to such a bastard scoundrel as him, and he really poured eight lifetimes of mold."

"Lao Li? Is that Lao Li who has dealt with stone people? ”

"Hey, yes, my dad is that old Li." The young man said that if he changed his face, he would change his face, and he was angry just now, but this would be a hippie smile.

Du Feng saw that he looked like a scoundrel, and wanted to step forward to beat him, but was blocked by Zhang Tianduo, Zhang Tianduo said: "Brother Du, we don't want to care if you have any personal grievances, but now we have something to ask him, please raise your noble hand." ”

Du Feng opened his mouth and wanted to scold, but when he thought that Zhang Tianduo and the three of them had given a lot of money after all, he had to swallow his anger and said: "Hmph, don't blame me for not reminding you, this little bastard is a stinky hooligan embryo, and he has done a lot of things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, and cheating." ”

With that, he threw down his broom, turned and went into his bedroom.

The three of them knew that what Du Feng said was mostly true, but at the moment, they didn't want to miss it if there was a glimmer of hope, so Che Bifan said, "Come in." ”

The young man was also really polite, entered the door with his head held high, sat down at the dining table, did not speak, picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.

Han Jinyun raised his eyebrows and said, "What's your name?" ”

"Hmm...... My name is Li Yuan....... my name is Li Yuan. ”

Che Bifan then asked, "Do you know how to get to the island where the stone man is located?" ”

"Of course." Li Yuan wiped his mouth, swallowed the food in his mouth and said: "The old man of my family has not mentioned this to me a lot in his life, that island is surrounded by reefs and rapids, and there is only one place where you can land safely, hehe, as long as you are willing to hire me, I will definitely take you to arrive safely." ”

The three of them glanced at each other, and they all saw the joy on each other's faces, and Che Bifan said: "As long as you can take us to the island, these fifty silver dollars are yours." ”

Li Yuan was also refreshed and said, "Cheng, then it's decided, you will go to the beach to find me early tomorrow morning." ”

As he spoke, he grabbed a large crab and nibbled as he walked outside.

Not long after Li Yuan left, Du Feng walked out of the bedroom, and when he saw the three of them with happy faces, he snorted and said, "Three, do you know who this Li Yuan is?" ”

Without waiting for the three to ask, he said: "This little bastard has not learned well since he was a child, specializing in stealing chickens and dogs and abducting and abduction, almost every family in our village has been stolen by him, deceived by him, the people in the village all hate him to the core, the most hateful thing is that this kid is still good at gambling, last year this kid lost a lot of debts outside, and even took advantage of Lao Li's bedridden illness to steal Lao Li's money for treatment, and almost sent Lao Li into the coffin with his own hands, and after Lao Li died, he had no money to bury, and the people in the village saw him pitiful, I scraped together some money for him to bury Lao Li, but I didn't expect this little Wang Balamb to take that money to gamble, lose all his essence overnight, and then I was afraid of being beaten and scolded by us, so I didn't even care about Lao Li's funeral, and I have been absconding, and I didn't come back until recently. ”

After listening to this, the three of them understood why Du Feng was so angry, it seems that this Li Yuan is really not a thing, but he is the only one who knows how to get to the island, and he can only rely on him at this time.

Che Bifan smiled: "Believe it or not, you'll know when the time comes." ”

Seeing that the three of them had made up their minds, Du Feng snorted coldly: "I should say that I have finished speaking, how to do it is your business, believe it or not." ”

With that, he turned and went into the bedroom.

"Do you think you can trust him?" Che Bifan asked.

Han Jinyun thought for a while and said, "Anyway, if he gives the money after the matter is completed, he can't play tricks even if he wants to." ”

Zhang Tianduo used to be mixed with the gangsters in the market, he couldn't be more clear about this kind of person, as soon as he saw Li Yuan, he knew that this was a complete scoundrel villain, this kind of person really can't be trusted, but this kind of person sometimes does everything for money, even including his own life.

"I thought I could give it a try," he said. ”

"Well, well, let's go to the beach and find him."

The next morning, the three of them came to the beach early.

Li Yuan was also trustworthy, and before it was dark, he went to the beach in advance to make some preparations for going to sea.

Almost all the people in Jinggang Village know how to sail, and Li Yuan is naturally no exception, in fact, Li Yuan himself is also a good fisherman, and he used to be deeply liked by the young girls in the village, but it is a pity that he went astray, gambled, and ruined his bright future.

The three of them quickly found Li Yuan, and when they saw that he was inspecting the fishing boat, they asked, "Li Yuan, how long will it take us to get to that island?" ”
