Chapter Seventy-Seven: Getting to the Island
Because too many things happened last night, Shen Yan and the others didn't have enough rest, so it was almost 1 or 2 o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, and Shen Yan and the others woke up from their dreams.
Today, the boat was going to be hired to go to the island, so as soon as I woke up in the night, I went straight to the bay near this town and began to contact the people who hired the boat.
But I didn't expect that because it was the rainy season, it was the most suitable peak season for fishing in all the seasons for all the crew members who made a living from fishing.
After eating a lot of rejections in a row, Styx felt a little depressed in his heart, so he stood directly by the bay, took out a cigarette, and lit it.
"Hey, were you one of those guests last night?" At this moment, Styx suddenly heard the slightly surprised voice of a young man.
When I looked back at the night, I saw the security guard I had met last night, standing in the sun, smiling and scratching his head, looking at him.
"Oh, it's you!" Styx threw down the cigarette and stomped on the cigarette butt that was still burning.
"What a coincidence! By the way, what are you doing here? Look like you've got something going on. It was then that the security guard noticed the slightly irritable mood of the night.
"It's nothing, I mainly want to rent a boat to visit the other side of the village, but I didn't expect that because it is the rainy season, those boatmen have to go out to sea to fish, so, alas..."
"You want to hire a ship? Why didn't you say it earlier! Unexpectedly, when he heard Styx say this, the security guard had an excited expression on his face.
"Huh?" Styx felt something strange.
"If you want to hire a boat to find me, we happen to have one at home." The security guard handed Styx a cigarette.
"Don't you need to use it?" There was a little excitement in the night.
"Yes! This boat was originally used by my parents to go out to sea, but they thought it was too dangerous to go out to fish, so they never taught me, so I only went to the hotel to work as a security guard!
Moreover, my parents passed away a few years ago, so I have been staying at home with this boat and have not used it much, if you want to use it, I can give it to you.
Moreover, you said that you were going to the other side of the village, and my family happened to live in the other side of the village, so I can also be a tour guide for you by the way, how good! The security guard's face was excited.
"That's a coincidence! Look, is that money enough? As soon as the words fell, Styx took out a large number of hundred-dollar bills.
"Enough is enough, enough is enough, I'm going to prepare, when will you land on the island?" The security guard took the stack of bills, and never raised his eyes to look at the night.
"It's best to be on the island in the afternoon." Styx sneered contemptuously, he was used to seeing too many people's greedy faces. Money is really the root of all evil!
"Okay, I'll get ready right away! When you've had lunch, I promise, you'll be on board as soon as possible. With that, the security guard ran away without a trace.
……
After enjoying a rather exquisite lunch, Xiao Yao, Shen Yan and Dark Night slowly returned to their rooms to tidy up their things, then checked out and walked to the bay pier.
On the dock, a boat that said it was not big or small had already stopped over there early, and the security guard on the boat was standing, and when he saw Xiao Yao and them, he waved his hand quickly.
Xiao Yao and his party boarded the boat, and after the security guard started the boat, they began to talk slowly.
From the chat, they learned the name of the security guard, and it was Junchi, a name that sounded quite bookish. But it is strange to say, Shen Yan and the others felt that they had been driving on this sea for almost 2 or 3 hours, but they didn't even see the shadow of a small island, so Shen Yan and Styx sat on the edge of the boat a little bored, and started a boring fishing competition.
Looking at the blue water around her, Xiao Yao asked Junchi strangely: "Junchi, how far is the other side village from here?" Why don't you have any islands here? ”
"You should have heard that the village on the other side is very strange, it can only be found on rainy days, you see that the weather is so good now, the chance of finding it is really slim." Junchi explained slowly.
"Don't you live in that village? How so? Xiao Yao was incomprehensible.
"That's right, because of the particularity of my family, I only go back to the village from where I work during the rainy season every year, so if it's not the rainy season, I basically go to work every day without resting, but put all my holidays during the rainy season." Junchi smiled and said, "If it weren't for your urgency, I would have planned to take you to the island when it rained!" ”
"When you rest in the rainy season, wouldn't you just have to lie at home and sleep and watch TV?" Xiao Yao thought it was incredible.
"Haha!" Unexpectedly, hearing Xiao Yao say this, Junchi actually laughed, "Our village on the other side is very magical, it rains outside, our village is sunny, if it's sunny outside, it will rain in our village." ”
"It's amazing." Xiao Yao suddenly began to have some small expectations for that island.
"Yes! Our village has almost kept the things left by our ancestors, and in our place, there are all kinds of strange things such as chasing corpses, Miao Gu, witchcraft, and lowering heads! When Junchi mentioned the island where he lived, his expression was full of pride.
"Wow! That's a great place! By the way, I've heard that there are caves with murals on your island, is it true? Xiao Yao tried to extract more secrets from Junchi's mouth.
"You said a mural! Ha ha! You don't know this, the stone cave with murals is the place where the villagers who live on the other side of the island are called holy places, and the stone cave is a unique form of sacrifice on our side since our ancestors first moved to the island.
You can pray for rain, you can pray for blessings, you can exorcise demons, you can do almost anything! Junchi still looks so proud that he can't do it.
"It's amazing! Then when we get to the island, we must go there! Xiao Yao said with a smile.
"Well, you can go, but remember, you must be pious when you enter that cave, otherwise the fairy spirit guarding the cave will be angry, and if anyone shows some contempt or distrust for that cave, the curse of punishment will come." Speaking of this, Jun Chi glanced at Xiao Yao seriously, and a sharp taste suddenly flashed in his eyes, which made Xiao Yao feel his scalp tingle.
At this moment, a few drops of cold rain dropped on Xiao Yao's nose, and when he looked up, a little drizzle began to fall in the blue sky, and at that moment, Junchi became excited: "It's raining!" I'll be home right away. ”
It's really strange to say, just when the rain was dripping into the sea little by little, in front of Xiao Yao's eyes, a magnificent island suddenly slowly appeared in the rain curtain.
"It's here!" Pointing to the island, Junchi said with a smile.
