Chapter 8: The Ghost Ship 8

"In the dream, the green is green, and the Yulang is short in the year. The dark clock and the bright moon do not return, Liang Shangyan, light Luo fan, good wind and peach blossom slices......"

Accompanied by the black ancient boat into the ear, is lingering in the river full of ancient rhyme of the woman's clear words singing, the voice is not hurried or slow, but the slightest bit of sadness and grievance, seems to be refreshing......

The tune is soft, but those who listen to it have already soaked into a cold sweat.

At the same time, the vague black shadows on the river suddenly stopped holding the hands that were constantly grasping those paper ingots.

The singing voice gradually began to overpower the Sanskrit sound in the old monk's mouth, and the black shadow that was originally whimpering and bowing seemed to be awakened alive.

"Click......"

The rosary in the old monk's hand suddenly broke, and after a few jumps on the wooden boat like beans, it fell into the water.

"Autumn rain, autumn rain, half of the west wind blows away......"

The poignant and mournful singing voice of the clear words, singing here, suddenly stopped, and there was silence.

The old monk didn't seem to be aware of it, one palm was still erected on his chest, his finger-length white eyebrows fluttered in the river breeze, and his eyes were quietly staring at the black ancient ship.

Old man Du kept holding the glasses on the bridge of his nose, but his face was ugly: "I can suppress the mental power of this old bald donkey, Lao Liu, we have lived for a lifetime, this is the first time we have met......"

"Hey, it's a woman's voice!" Old man Liu suddenly laughed, and his voice carried an unusual meaning.

With a plain sentence, the old monk and Old Man Du on the side were stunned for a moment, but they suddenly remembered something, and at the same time, their faces changed greatly: "Changsha Ghost Market!" ”

Old man Liu squatted down, scooped up a handful of river water, and said with a smile: "In March this year, in the ghost market of Changsha, there was a black-robed man who put down three incense...... Months passed, and hundreds of ghosts gathered here at night...... Lao Du, I thought it was just an ordinary little ghost asking for his life, but look at it...... I guess it's just that today's events are the head, and you and I don't know what kind of cause and effect is hidden in it......"

has been an old man for many years, and Old Man Du naturally heard the meaning of Old Man Liu's words, and his expression was complicated: "Do you intend to stop here and not get involved in this matter?" ”

Old man Liu let out a long sigh: "Whether it is your divination or the old monk Buddhism, isn't it more transparent about cause and effect?" Without the golden key, how can you open the secret door lock? I don't know the reason, if I insist on interfering, I can only change again! This reason, you two old things still don't understand? ”

Several people were suddenly silent, and after a long time, Old Man Du hesitated and said, "But there is still a village here, how can you ignore it......

As soon as the words fell, on the silent river, the poignant ghost laughter that made people's scalps explode, and countless black shadows rushed over like crazy towards the boat under the feet of Old Man Liu and the others.

The black ancient ship took advantage of this time to rush to the river bank.

Old man Liu was shocked: "What are you doing with this strange thing?" ”

The old monk, who had never spoken, suddenly spoke: "All effects start from the cause, and all reports start from the industry." That being the case, why did this ghost ship appear here and not elsewhere? This place is probably the place where cause and effect come in! Or here there will be people who will be rewarded by karma! ”

As soon as he spoke, Old Man Du and Old Man Liu both changed color, and Old Man Liu was the first to react: "Not good!" Xiao Song and Ye Qing are still on the riverbank......"

On the bank of the river, you can faintly hear the faint angry shouts of the old man Liu in the middle of the misty river.

Ye Qing frowned lightly, looked at the dark river, and his expression was full of worry: "Something must have happened, Liu Shi and they are so angry!" ”

"Master Liu and Master Du, they have real skills, they are full of Xuanmen skills, unfathomable, and nothing can happen! Don't worry, after this incident, I will take leave from the department and give you a beautiful marriage! ”

Song Cheng shook Ye Qing's hand and mentioned the technique of Xuanmen, his eyes were full of yearning.

Ye Qing rubbed in front of Song Cheng and joked: "You, it's better to leave that department earlier!" You can't let Master Liu and Master Du help you for a lifetime, right? This time, you took the initiative to ask Ying to take over the matter alone, but you didn't let any of the people in the department come, Liu Shi Du Shi took care of our two juniors, so he worked tirelessly, it's good to come, but if you can't come, why don't you think about the consequences? ”

Song Cheng's eyes were a little evasive: "I'...... Just wanted to ......"

Ye Qing slapped Song Cheng a few times, and said with a smile: "What do you think, I don't know?" You don't know how to count the way to enter this department as a special soldier, I know that you are excluded by others, and I also know that you want me to be decent, but ah, those worldly decency, I don't care, why do you want to be stubborn about this, I am used to playing a person in Xiaotian, Haibei, and I met Liu Shi Du Shi and you, only to know the pain of the elders and the taste of being loved! Whether decent or undignified, I, Ye Qing, swear that I will entrust you with the rest of my life......"

Song Cheng's eyes were a little red, and then he said: "Naturally, you want to be decent, do you become a family, and let you be a female gentleman who cheats and drinks everywhere with a little bit of fur like before?" ”

Speaking of the old thing, Ye Qing couldn't straighten up with a giggle, and beat Song Cheng's shoulder: "I'...... Oops...... I can't laugh, God must have let me spend all my luck before I was deceived by you and Master Liu...... Oops...... I can't think about it, I'm laughing to death......"

Song Cheng also laughed, laughing and laughing, his expression gradually changed, and on the bank of the river, I don't know when, an ancient ship with red lights appeared.

I hadn't seen it before.

Ye Qing naturally saw it, but he felt uncomfortable, looking at the river, he could only vaguely see the outline of Old Man Liu's boat, which was slow after all.

"Let's go! Hurry up and take those two fellows back to the village! ”

Ye Qing Song Cheng heard that it was Old Man Liu's voice, and he seemed to be very anxious.

Ye Qing's face was a little pale, and he was just about to speak, but he was meeting Song Cheng's flickering eyes.

Song Cheng gritted his teeth and let go of Ye Qing's hand: "You go first, I'll go up and see where this strange ship came from, I heard that someone saw a boatload of grain on it, I'll go and see what happened, it's good to go back, don't worry about me, it's just a boat, it can really eat people......"

After that, Song Cheng glanced at Ye Qing twice, rushed to the shallow beach that didn't enter the crook of the leg in a few arrow steps, buckled the boat gang, and turned over on the boat.

The originally brightly lit ship, the moment Song Cheng stepped on the deck, all the lights seemed to disappear at the same time, and the night fell into darkness again.

By the hazy light, the ship was empty, and there were no warehouses full of grain, only long black wooden boxes.

Song Cheng turned around, only to find that the boat couldn't see the situation on the shore, it was obviously so close to the river bank, but except for the things on the boat, there was only endless darkness around, and he couldn't see or hear......

Touching the darkness, he walked to a long black box, and saw it clearly, but it made Song Cheng's scalp tingle for a while, it was a mouthful of black wooden coffins.

There was nothing but a boatload of coffins.

Sensing that something was wrong, Song Cheng panicked, turned around decisively and prepared to jump off the boat.

And the moment he turned around, a cold laugh suddenly sounded behind him.

"Who?" Song Cheng suddenly froze and turned his head violently.

Beads of sweat ran down her cheeks.

The grim laughter didn't respond.

Song Cheng turned around again, but his eyes were firmly staring at the black wooden coffin closest to him, the moment the cold laughter sounded, Song Cheng suddenly raised his leg and kicked at the coffin, perhaps because of the age, the coffin rolled on the deck a few times, and it shattered, and the coffin nails rolled to the ground.

Song Cheng casually held the foot-long coffin nail in his hand for self-defense, and at the same time, in the open coffin, the monstrous black qi filled out with the familiar cold laughter.

Song Cheng gasped for breath, didn't stop again, jumped off the boat, the river was cold.

When his sight recovered, he heard two exclamations, and the black mist that filled the ancient boat had already merged into a stream, rushing towards the river bank, bypassing Ye Qing, and rushing straight to one of the two village men who were carrying the paper boat.

And the next scene made Song Cheng's pupils shrink suddenly, and then he roared with a heartbreak: "Don't ......"

Ye Qing, who was in a panic, stretched out his hand to pull the man who was already frightened, but he disappeared into the thick black mist......

Song Cheng climbed from the water to the shore like crazy.

At this time, Old Man Liu and his boat also arrived at the shore.

"Evil Barrier!"

Old man Liu was furious with a strong murderous aura, and the Dao Gate turned over the sky, and the monstrous black qi quickly swept away.

The fog on the river dissipated, and the black ancient ship was gone, and it disappeared once again.

On the riverbank, Old Man Liu spoke incoherently, pointed at Song Cheng tremblingly, his mouth trembled for a long time, and he sat on the ground with a weak butt for a long time......

Song Cheng fell to his knees and cried......

**************************

Later, the black ancient ship that mysteriously disappeared never appeared again, and Old Man Liu and the others left, leaving the small village, but there was one less person when they went back.

Later, on the way back to the old monk, he met a little beggar who was begging for food along the street, dressed in tatters, and the old monk couldn't bear it, so he accepted him as a disciple of the mantle of inheriting Buddhism, and named him Xiao Liuqing.

Almost at the same time, Old Man Liu also accepted an apprentice, who was in Xinyang, which was far away from the small village of Fengcheng, Jiangxi, and the apprentice was called Leng Qi......

As for the story of Old Man Liu and their apprentices, I will not tell it here, only the man in the village who was rescued by Ye Qing at the beginning, and the man's surname is Yuan.

is called Yuan Fugui, and he is Yuan Yu's grandfather.
