Chapter 153: Stealing Life (23)

Let's say that the three madmen were shocked when they were lying on the bed where they were looking, and this mercy was sleeping peacefully and peacefully, where could he still see the lonely soul. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The three madmen who hurried back to their residences didn't care whether the five ghost Taoists were sleeping soundly or not, they only pressed their hands on him and shook vigorously, how could this wine be too pure, and the five ghost Taoists only hummed twice as if they were asleep and there was no movement.

Although it didn't wake up the five ghost Taoists, this toss woke up the three madmen by themselves.

After calming down, he began to carefully analyze the relationship between this person and a ghost in his heart, how could this matter be the first time that the three madmen met, and he didn't have a clue if he wanted to break his head.

In the end, the three madmen could only come to one conclusion, that is, one of them must have told a lie, and the three madmen recalled everything, as if all the information was telling him that the woman holding the umbrella on the shore was a fake merciful ......

"I'm going to ask." The three madmen made up their minds in their hearts, covered the quilt for the five ghost Taoists, and secretly went out of Liu's Mansion alone.

At this time, it was already late at night, and the streets of Taiping Town were still noisy, with an endless stream of people coming and going, and the three madmen had a feeling that this was much more lively than during the day.

He is the most lively, and the three madmen in this busy city are always surging with blood in their hearts, but they can't allow him to stay a little longer today, and they don't have time to give her a little longer.

There were lights on the fishing boat flickering on the shore, and the three madmen came to the place where they were better with Ciren today, and looked around waiting for Ciren to appear.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, but after waiting for a long time, Ciren did not appear, and at the moment when he turned to leave, he suddenly heard someone beckoning him, and when he looked back, he realized that it was a boatman.

The boatman spoke hurriedly, as if he had something important to say to him.

Thinking that they had waited so long, and that they had not waited a little longer, the three madmen thought about it and took two steps towards the boatman.

It was only when he got a little closer that he heard the boatman tell him to come over quickly, saying that the bank of the river was dangerous.

The three madmen thought it amused in their hearts, where was the danger, if the bank of the river was dangerous, the boatman who called him had been on the river, wouldn't it be even more dangerous. Although the three madmen thought so in their hearts, they naturally knew in their hearts that the boatman also had good intentions.

I don't know when the river in this night was covered with a layer of mist, the night was deep, and the river was dark and lightless, like a black hole, with infinite magic, as if to devour everything, making people awe and very afraid, standing on the shore always seemed to be facing a prehistoric giant crocodile, and it seemed that the end of the river was connected to another world.

The three madmen grew up at the foot of the mountain, and although they have seen rivers, they are really small compared to what they see now.

As he was nearer, the three madmen heard the old boatman say hurriedly, "O young man! It's okay to go home quickly, and don't wander around this river. ”

The three madmen were puzzled and asked, "Master, I'll be here for a while and then leave." ”

When the old boatman heard the three madmen say this, there was a little more worry in his eyes, and he said a little sharply: "Aren't you going to wait for someone here?" ”

The three madmen listened to the old boatman so powerful that he actually guessed what was on his mind, and nodded slightly embarrassed.

Seeing the appearance of the three madmen, the old boatman sighed and said, "Young man, the person you are waiting for can't come, listen to the old man's advice, hurry home!" ”

The three madmen were stunned and said: Mo didn't Ciren ask this old man to come over and send him back, but he felt that there was something strange about this, the boatman in front of him had green tendons on his hands and thick palms, with thick calluses, and at first glance, he was a perennial boat supporter and did not look like a feng shui master who gave people his fate, so naturally he ruled out the possibility that he could see Ciren, but if it wasn't so, why would this old man tell him this.

Just when the three madmen were stunned, the boatman felt that he had not persuaded the three madmen, so he continued: "The shore has not been very peaceful recently, young man, listen to the old man's advice, don't wait for anyone, go back quickly." ”

The three madmen were shocked after hearing this, and they were even more curious, so they asked: "Master, I am stupid by nature, I really didn't understand what you said about it." ”

"Hey, if you want to know, I'll tell you directly, this river has not been peaceful recently, two people have died since the beginning of last month, and they were all standing in the same position you just now at night, I called you over because I didn't want you to become the third person." The old boatman said, let's light up the fire on the boat.

"You're saying there's ...... in the river?"

Before the three madmen could finish speaking, the boatman immediately made a silent gesture and said, "Each has its own troubles. ”

Although the three madmen are rarely entered, he is young and astute, and he knows that this is not a convenient place, so he said: "I thanked the master just now, and I didn't know that the master was inconvenient, I want to invite you to eat some wine and food." ”

When the boatman heard this, there was a smile between his eyebrows, and he knew that the three madmen understood what he meant, so he responded: "Young man, you have to wait a while, old man, I still have some things to do." ”

"Is there anything I can do to help you?"

"Haha, it's good for me to come by myself, otherwise it will stain your clothes." Where the boatman skillfully knotted the rope.

The three madmen saw that the old man was struggling, so he hurriedly stepped forward and took a hand, although he was not skilled, but his mind always arrived.

The three madmen were about to blow out the oil lamp, but the old boatman stopped him and said that it was his way home.

It's not too early to finish the work, the three madmen followed the old man to the shore of a tavern that has not yet closed, the tavern is very small, there are only two or three tables in total, the boss is a somewhat fat middle-aged man, with a beard and short eyebrows, wearing a coarse linen clothes, at first glance it looks like a butcher, there is a charcoal fire in the store, and the stove mountain is scalding a pot of old wine, although it is not as good as the drunkard Zhang's craftsmanship, but it is not easy to smell the aroma of this wine at this time.

Seeing the boatman coming, the fat boss greeted: "Master Xu, you came early today, and my wine is not scalded yet." ”

"Don't be in a hurry, just wait a while." Master Xu said with a smile.

The fat boss had already brought all the snacks and dishes while the boatman Master Xu was talking, and then said, "There are more people today, and I will prepare two people for you in this appetizer." ”

The boatman, Master Xu, smiled and said, "I'm really bothering you." ”

"Master Xu, you didn't torture me, you saved my life." The fat boss said and handed over another plate of cooked beef.

It's just that after the fat boss finished speaking, Master Xu just smiled, neither admitting nor denying it.

After sitting down, the three madmen couldn't help but ask: "Master Xu, my name is Zhang Muyang Wang Zhuangren, I still don't quite understand what you mean by saying that the river is not peaceful!" ”

The old master didn't want to answer, but he didn't hear it, and the fat boss seemed to be a warm-hearted person and said: "Master Xu is a well-known corpse collector on this river, as long as he didn't find anyone when he went into the water, my nickname was accidentally caught up by Master Xu who fell into the water at that time." ”

The third madman is a smart man, and after the fat boss finished speaking, he naturally guessed that this Master Xu is also a gentleman who knows yin and yang. Because most of the drowning people are pulled into the water by water ghosts, which is often said to be water ghosts. Naturally, the corpse was also going to sink under the water together, how could ordinary people find it.

The three madmen drank the wine, and when they became bolder, they asked, "Does Master Xu know the art of yin and yang?" ”

After the three madmen finished speaking, Master Xu raised his head and smiled and said: "I'm just an ordinary person with a better water nature, where do you know what yin and yang are, but your kid is bold enough, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains!" ”

After Master Xu finished speaking, the three madmen always felt that there was something in this, but after asking again, Master Xu always said some irrelevant words, and finally he couldn't do it.

It wasn't until this beating was loud and loud again that the three madmen said goodbye to Master Xu and went to Liu's mansion.

Of course, these are what the five ghost Taoists told him after he got up on the second day, and said that he walked and sang all the way like a three madmen, thanks to him pulling him back, otherwise in this weather, he would sleep outside all night and be afraid that he would freeze half to death.
