Chapter 50: Boarding the Boat and Crossing the River Styx
I was shocked by Stone's words, I didn't fully understand what he meant, and when we said we would go to the River Styx together, he seemed to have thrown the matter out of the clouds! I pulled the stone to a less crowded area, and I asked him, "Do you really not remember, or are you pretending to be confused with me?" I'm telling you, this matter is very evil, and if we don't handle it well, we will be really in danger. It's not me scaring you, that female ghost may have something to do with this secret marriage, you'd better come with me! ”
"What are you talking about, Xiaotian, why can't I understand a word, what kind of female ghost, you kid bumped into a ghost?" Shi Min pursed his lips and asked me.
I looked at him as if he really didn't know anything, and when I thought about it, it was too weird. Why do I remember everything when I wake up, but this kid can't remember the terrible scene in the morning! I couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, so I just looked at the stone in a daze, not knowing what to do!
After a while, the stone pushed me and said to me, "Silly boy, didn't you have class today, just right, let's take a look at this once-in-a-lifetime secret marriage with my brother!"
As soon as I heard the word "Secret Marriage", my head suddenly buzzed, and it became blank, and I didn't want to think about anything at the moment, I just felt that my brain was very tired. So I nodded and walked out into the crowd with the stone.
Walking out of the village, the speed of the team was a little faster, and at this time, you could see in the distance that many people from the next village were rushing towards the team. The more and more people gathered, they followed the team closely, as if there was some taboo, and no one dared to get too close. The stone pushed me and asked me, "How's it going, exciting?" This is a secret marriage, and it is very difficult to encounter! I heard that Lao Li's daughter left, and someone in the next village told the matchmaker that he married a guy who had been dead for several years, and I heard that he gave his family hundreds of yuan! ”
It was only then that I realized that my brain had gone blank. After listening to the stone's words, I sighed for a while, what age is this, how can someone still run a secret marriage! I asked the stone, "Is it Li Xiaohua?" How did she die? ”
Li Xiaohua is a big beauty in our village, she read books when she was a child, she is a cultural person, and she is in her twenties and has not yet married. This girl has high vision, she doesn't look down on ordinary people, she just wants to marry a rich man. Who would have thought that a good person would suddenly die!
Shi raised his eyebrows and said to me: "Ask me, you are the right person, I have already asked someone today, Li Xiaohua She died of illness." I heard that she hasn't been out in the past few days, she has been lying at home, his parents go out every day, and they don't know what to do. Some people say that she let that thing go, but I don't know if it's true. ”
I hurriedly covered the stone's mouth and whispered to him, "Don't talk nonsense, let's go over and have a look."
I know there are some things I can't say, and after what happened horribly this morning, I've now fully accepted that there are ghosts in this world. I think since someone said so, then this Li Xiaohua should not be as simple as a normal death, otherwise it would be impossible for a young living person to disappear like this in just a few days!
Li Xiaohua is going to marry a young man in the next village who has been dead for several years, and the young man was only in his early twenties when he died, not from illness, but from the fire. I took the opportunity to inquire with a few elders in our village, and they said that the young man was buried on the other side of the River Styx, and that his family had asked him to look at the feng shui to find the tomb. Looking at feng shui, it is a dragon vein, which is very rare, although it is only on the tail of the dragon, but even so, if the dead are buried there, his family will be able to soar in less than three years. At that time, the family didn't know what to think, but they actually listened to the instigation of Mr. Feng Shui, and buried the young man more than ten kilometers away from the village, across a river nearly 100 zhang wide. During the Qingming season, his family can only go by ferry to burn paper money to worship.
Mr. Feng Shui's words were really accurate, and sure enough, within three years, this family was really prosperous. I heard that they had already prepared a big boat, and when all the people on both sides arrived, they took the boat to the young man's grave to get married.
Soon the team reached the edge of the River Styx, and in the distance they saw a large ship docked on the shore. It was a very large ship, it was the first time I had ever seen such a huge ship, and the whole ship was gilded with a layer of gold, and it looked quite magnificent. The hull was tied with big red flowers, and someone had already greeted them on the boat, and when they saw the team coming, the sound of suona and firecrackers came from the boat.
I whispered to the stones, "They're going to cross the river, so let's not go."
Shi looked at the big ship in front of him excitedly, and when he heard me say this, he seemed a little unhappy, and he said to me: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, don't you want to try such a big ship?" Later, we will secretly follow the team on the boat, and rest assured that no one will find out. ”
"But, Stone ......" I remembered what had happened this morning in the River Styx, and the feeling of fear that had come back to the River Styx had now come to me again. I was afraid that the giant monster would poke its head out of the Styx again, and I was terrified that the stone had no memory of the morning's events. It's just that I can't resist the stone, and he said that he would go on the boat to see, so I had to obey his wishes, thinking in my heart, if I don't go into the tiger's den, I will get the tiger, anyway, even if I don't come today, I will still come to the Styx sooner or later, and if this matter is not investigated for a day, I will not sleep well.
When the procession reached the river, the cabin was opened, a row of wooden ladders were lowered, and the greetings disembarked from the boat, and after a few brief words, they began to board the boat. When boarding the ship, someone is in charge of guarding, and unrelated people are forbidden to board the ship, and the crowd of onlookers can only see here, I am afraid that they will not see the whole process of holding the ghost marriage.
I see that most of the people have already boarded the boat, and if they don't get up, they won't have a chance. So I said to the stone: "Quick, let's quickly blend into the crowd, follow the team, be natural, don't be discovered!"
Stone nodded, took three steps and two steps with me, and quickly blended into the crowd. Since we were small, no one would notice us in the crowd, so we easily followed the bustling procession and boarded the boat.
The ship was huge, and when we went up, the deck was already full of people, but fortunately they didn't count the number of people. With a shrill whistle, the ship slowly moved towards the center of the River Styx.
