Chapter 625: Illusion (1)

It is an eternal truth that people cannot be resurrected after death. But this truth was shattered by the arrival of Hua Hu, and I have witnessed her on several occasions beating the living to death, and then bringing the dead to life.

I have also personally appeared when danger came, and she would be the first to show up and save me from fire and water. She also said that she and I have mutual induction, and as long as the wind blows, she knows everything.

But there are also worries, at least this time when her heart was shattered by Nie Qing, she was not around.

However, when I was in the illusion of the bardo body, I felt a sense of joy and confidence for no reason.

Because of this illusion, it is simply quiet and tranquil. I don't know why, but there is a power here that makes me feel familiar and at peace.

I sat on the lawn and looked out at the mighty river that was gushing and sparse. The boat in the river floated towards the shore, and the fisherman sang the ancient song of five words repeatedly, and the boat finally came to the shore, and the fisherman held the boat and stood in the boat looking at me.

"Does a gentleman want to cross? A gentleman is a gentleman! He sang in the boat.

Seeing that I had no intention of getting on the boat, the fisherman smiled lightly, and with a strain of his penny, the boat was in an instant off shore and headed back towards the center of the river.

I've heard Hua Fu say before that the illusion he entered when he was in the bardo body was actually a strange soap bubble.

"Everyone has a soap bubble, and outside the soap bubble is a thin barrier. People can't spy on others through the enchantment layer, except for a rare person like this girl - with a unique skill, walking the Three Realms, watching the lights at the foot of Mount Meru, and surpassing the Six Pleasures on the way.

"Tsk! You can meet such an excellent Asura princess, it is simply a creation that has been cultivated for thousands of years! ”

If Hua Hu is not wrong, then in my illusion, there should be only one bardo body. If this is the case, the ferryman is only a part of the illusion.

My bardo body is like a player in it, and this fisherman is just an NPC (non-player character) in the game.

Since he's an NPC, you don't have to pay attention to him.

A heavy fog drifted slowly, and with the sound of the oars, the boat also sailed into the haze.

I got up from the river, and my heart grew anxious. I don't know when and why Hua Hu still hasn't appeared. The passage of time in the illusion seems to be different from the real world - there are no clocks or sundials.

At this moment, a black boat suddenly broke through the thick fog, and it moved its huge body slowly and down the river!

This is the black ship, the exact same black ship! I came across it when I was a teenager! I didn't expect that after 16 years, I would be able to see it again in a fantasy world!

I stood on the shore and was stunned for a moment! The black boat came from afar, getting closer and closer to me, and although the river was foggy, I could still see the huge waves churning in the stern.

When I was a teenager, I once saw a huge monster covered with scales tethered there, and I wonder if the monster was still caught there and couldn't get out.

I unconsciously walked towards the river, wanting to get closer and see better! At this moment, the woman in red with a peerless face came around from the stern of the boat.

"Hey!"

A sweet cry came.

That's right, it's her, it's her! This is the black boat I encountered on the Zhulong River when I was a teenager, and this is the girl in red I met during the summer vacation of my fifth grade.

I was no longer shy this time, and I opened my arms and waved loudly at her.

"Here's it! Look here! ”

I couldn't see her face clearly, but I could feel her smile.

"Does a gentleman want to cross? The gentleman is a gentleman ......"

It's the same song again, it's the same person again, in the dense water vapor, with the fisherman's boat song, the Ye Bian boat quietly appeared from the river fog like a ghost.

The fisherman sang gracefully, the light boat broke the thin waves, and the shadow of the oars rippled. He rowed the boat, inch by inch, and came towards me again, and he stopped the boat again in the reeds on the shore, and he stared at me, and suddenly two sentences from the Book of Changes came out—

"If you don't help the murderer, you will be involved in the river!"

I immediately understood the meaning of these two sentences—he was telling me that if I didn't cross the river, it would bring bad omen, and if I crossed the river, everything would be fine!

His words also reminded me that they were all dead anyway, so what worries did they have to worry about dying again? Do you still want to be like the little fox in the Book of Changes, and finally wet his tail?

——Wandering down Fangdian, near the slope of dead trees at dusk. It's no longer a glorious thing, why the autumn wind!

Thinking of this, I took a step on the tidal flats of the water's shore and headed towards the small boat.

The fisherman watched me climb into the cabin, but he was still expressionless, but he gently clicked the ferry, and chased briskly towards the black boat.

In the thick fog, the black ship did not go very fast. The little ferryboat rode the waves, and it soon approached the tail of the ship, where the scaly monster kept tumbling.

The monster was apparently bound by the fishing line on the black boat, and it was struggling in the water, setting off a huge wave that shook the boat.

When I was a child, I thought it was an evil dragon, but when I looked closer, I realized that this monster with fangs and scales was actually a big snake! The big snake has nine heads, except for the one in the middle that is strangled, the other eight heads are showing sharp teeth, desperately biting and sawing the fishing line!

The serpent looked ferocious, but the fisherman was completely unmoved, and he paddled indifferently and slowly attached to the side of the boat.

I saw a rope ladder thrown down from the boat, and the fisherman caught the rope ladder, and he lifted me up and "hung" on the ladder. I grabbed the ladder rope with both hands and climbed up the side of the boat.

Strangely, the boat doesn't look big, but it climbs very tall! I was panting and sweating, and when I looked up, I was as far away as a mountain!

Fortunately, at this moment, the woman in red pulled the rope ladder and pulled me to the top of the deck - if I really tried to climb it myself, it would have to be in the Year of the Monkey!

It wasn't until I got on deck that I realized that not only was the ship as big as a mountain, but that the woman was standing in front of me like a giant.

"Finally meet again." She looked straight ahead, as if to say to me, but not at all.

"Yes, the last time I saw you, I was still an elementary school student." I was at her feet, and she was wearing a pair of straw shoes, with a white toe peeking out of the gap—and I was only as tall as her waist.

"Who are you? What are you going to do? I folded my hands and shouted at her.

“…… I led Xiangliu to Ping Shura. She said to the non-existent person across from her.

"Shura?" I was taken aback, "Is it Asura?" ”
