Chapter 723: River God Sacrifice
"Uncle, I'm going to take your boat today." Xia Ye'er said this, and did not forget to look at Li Laohan provocatively, Li Laohan's expression was not much better, a little girl actually dared to challenge her authority. Li Laohan sneered while carrying things to the boat.
Xia Ye'er looked at Li Laohan's movements curiously, what was he moving to the boat, why didn't this boatman do it = where to move, "Li Laohan, what are you moving" Xia Ye'er asked, Li Laohan was obviously nervous when he heard this question, although it was only a small time, but he was still in full view of Xia Ye'er.
"It's nothing, a sacrifice to the river god" Li Laohan hurriedly came over and played haha. Now Xia Ye'er was even more suspicious. Obviously, Li Laohan lied, and it seems that the problem lies in these things.
"Girl, get on board." Just when Xia Ye'er was thinking, the boatman was ready to greet Xia Ye'er, Xia Ye came back to his senses and said a light jump, and he firmly occupied the boat. "There is a resting place inside, it's a little shabby, and the girl will take care of it." The boatman said.
In the midst of everyone's doubts, Xia Ye'er still got on the boatman's boat in the end. "Girl, our boat will sail in a moment." The boatman said to Xia Ye'er, who didn't understand the purpose of this, so he asked, "I know, is there any problem?" "Hey, girl, it's too late for you to regret it now, go and take Li Laohan's boat." The boatman was clearly in a hurry.
At this time, the old man Li interjected on the side, "Hey, whoever this river god blesses, whoever can cross the river safely, surnamed Zhang, I think you still don't want to harm other people's little girls." Listening to Li Laohan's words, Xia Ye'er felt even more unhappy, but she didn't answer his words.
Instead, he turned to the boatman and said, "Uncle, it's okay, let's go." "Okay." The boatman surnamed Zhang nodded helplessly, propped up the pole and pushed hard, and the boat left the shore, and then he took out his oars and began to paddle forward little by little. And Li Laohan was also ready to set off at this time.
Like the boatman surnamed Zhang, he used a pole to push his boat out, then put away the pole and rowed with an oar. Seeing all this, Xia Ye'er was even more determined, and the cat must have been hiding in the things that Li Laohan had carried into his boat just now.
"Boatman, can you tell me about this old man Li." Xia Ye'er established that the old man was still far behind him, and turned around to find the boatman, presumably he couldn't hear what he was talking now, unless he had a tailwind.
The boatman ferried again, and said, "This Li Laohan is a famous boatman here, and the boats that search for the tour will be attacked and sunk in the middle of the river on the first voyage, only Li Laohan's boat is good and unharmed." ”
"So amazing?" Xia Ye'er asked, "Then who was there when everyone's boat sank" Xia Ye'er continued to ask, she always felt that there was something wrong with this old man Li, but she didn't know what the problem was.
"At the beginning, Li Laohan traveled with others, but every time there was a strong wind and waves, only Li Laohan could return safely, so later, which new boatmen were willing to be with Li Laohan, thinking that they could touch his divine power" The boatman looked at Li Laohan behind him and said
Power? Xia Ye'er never believed in any ghosts and gods, so all of this must be bluffing. It must be that Li Laohan has done something, otherwise only Li Laohan can come back every time he is on the boat.
"Then no one usually sails by themselves, just don't be with Li Laohan." Xia Ye'er continued to ask, if no one usually sails by themselves, and all of them go with Li Laohan, then the problem is really Li Laohan.
But the boatman's answer surprised Xia Ye'er, "Yes, but I still haven't come back, hey, I'm dead." After saying that, the boatman did not forget to sigh. Xia Ye'er fell into a mystery again, how could Li Laohan still sink the ship if he was not there, did it really have nothing to do with Li Laohan.
But the theory of ghosts and gods is even more unreliable, why is that, Xia Ye'er fell into deep thought. "Girl." The boatman handed over the name Xia Ye'er, Xia Ye'er came back to her senses and looked at the boatman, "What's the matter, uncle?" "Oh, you don't need to call me uncle, my surname is Zhang, you can call me Lao Zhang," the boatman said.
"Then how can it work, I'll call you Uncle Zhang," Xia Ye'er said as she sat on the side of the boat, supporting her chin with one hand. "By the way, Uncle Zhang, your lady's illness ......" Speaking of this, Xia Ye'er saw tears in Uncle Zhang's eyes.
"Girl, my lady is suffering from a cough, and I don't have the money to treat him, this boat was handed down to me by my father, and I can't hide it, if the girl doesn't come to the rescue, I will sell this boat for some money." Saying that, Zhang Chuanfu fell into grief.
Xia Ye'er looked at him like this, and suddenly felt that she shouldn't mention this matter. Between the words, Li Laohan had already caught up, "Oh, when I saw you, I thought I had become a sacrifice to the river god." Li Laohan said while holding the boat.
Xia Ye'er smiled, "If you don't see the river god in front of you, how dare we take the first step." "Old man Li was shocked, this little girl's tongue is so powerful." You little baby, dare to disrespect me Li Laohan? "Li Laohan is angry, Xia Ye'er is naturally not a vegetarian, "You dead old man, you dare to shout at this girl"
The people on Li Laohan's boat laughed when they heard this, and Li Laohan instantly felt that he had lost face, "Hmph, I won't fight with you now, I will let you know how powerful the river god is when I go to the middle of the river tonight." After speaking, he sneered twice.
Xia Ye'er just glanced at him, didn't argue with him anymore, the night soon fell, the river at night was quieter, but it was a little quiet, it was dark, and the junction of heaven and water disappeared into the vast night.
Zhang Chuanfu Li Laohan had already hung a lantern on the boat, and the two faint lights were not far from each other. Xia Ye'er sat on the deck of the boat and reached out to fish for water. "Girl, come in, it's cold at night, don't freeze." Zhang Chuanfu said to Xia Ye'er, Xia Ye'er really felt a coldness, so she entered the boat without saying anything.
The rest area inside the boat is simple, but it is very neat and simple. The quilt was also very clean, there was a tea set table, and the lamp had already been lit, Xia Ye'er lay down, wanting to close her eyes and recuperate.
She knew that she couldn't sleep, because Li Laohan said, "When you get to the middle of the river tonight, I will let you know how powerful the river god is." ”
It seems that Li Laohan will definitely do something tonight.
Just when Xia Ye'er was thinking like this, a "bang" sounded outside, and Xia Ye'er got up and ran out of the boat, "What's wrong?" Xia Ye'er asked, at this time, Zhang Chuanfu was so frightened that he couldn't speak, "I...... I, there was something under the water just now. ”
