In the dark whirlpool, I don't know what there is, but as soon as the thoughts in my heart arise, many things seem to have been answered. The ancient ship itself is not a very important thing, it sank to the bottom of the river, probably entirely to protect the existence of the whirlpool black hole. The only thing worth paying attention to on the ancient ship is the stone coffin, but the traces of the ancient ship have been discovered, so the stone coffin will break out of the ship?

In a short time, the stone coffin left the sight and sank into the whirlpool, the whirlpool seemed to be unfathomable, the coffin disappeared when it entered, outside the whirlpool, circle after circle of floating corpses were slowly swimming, two or three meters of big fish, strange aquatic animals, the whirlpool around the tightly blocked. I really wanted to go down the whirlpool to have a look, but the conditions didn't allow it, and I couldn't hold it for so long.

Thinking to myself, Maitreya was dangling and pulling me, and his legs kicked towards the water. As soon as we moved, the ancient ship suspended under the water also moved, as if it was about to float again. But the qi can't keep up, and I can't care so much, so I go upstream.

When Maitreya and I surfaced, the ancient boat also showed its head slightly from under the water, and those people on the shore had not yet left, and when they saw the ancient boat, they immediately ignored me and Maitreya. The speed at which the ancient ship surfaced was also quite fast, and at the same time as the half-cut hull surfaced, it immediately drifted downstream with the current. The people on the shore couldn't sit still, and shouted and ran with the boat on the shore, probably planning to find a way to stop the boat.

In this way, Maitreya and I easily escaped, struggling to swim to the other side of the river and climb up the river beach. We were afraid of any twists and turns, so we couldn't even breathe, so we walked away and ran a long way before stopping. I was completely fascinated by the black whirlpool at the bottom of the river, and wondered what was in it. I consulted with Maitreya to see if I could think of a way, and then I went down and took a look.

"I still don't want it, since some things are hidden so deeply, I just don't want people to know, if you force it to look, it is estimated that there will be trouble." Maitreya took off his clothes and wrung the water vigorously, and said, "There is only one life, cherish it." "

"This is not the time when you were desperately trying to run towards the boat."

"It's not the same thing." Maitreya smiled and said, "I just want to find out, I can barely cope with it on the boat, and when I get to the water, can you?" Listen to me, the things left by the ancestors, since they are kept, there is a reason to stay, if they can be given to us to use, we will use them, since they are hidden, there are reasons to hide them, these things, it is best not to force them. "

"And." As soon as I reached a safe place, I remembered what Maitreya was hiding from me and asked him, "How do you know the mirror around my neck?" "

"Haven't eaten pork, haven't seen a pig run?" Maitreya grinned and said: "The Zhenhe mirror, the snake seal knife, are all things to ward off evil spirits, and they have been circulating on the river beach for many years, and the ears of listening to them are calloused." "

Maitreya just fooled the past like this anyway, and when I asked again, he refused to say anything, and he was rambling haha. This made me more and more sure that this product must not be a simple collector of parallel goods, I wanted to take advantage of the situation to ask about the wooden statue, but I felt that it was not yet time, even if I asked now, Maitreya would only talk nonsense. Because of this, although I was born and died with him for a while, my guard in my heart has not decreased at all, and I always feel that this fleshy guy is not as kind as it seems on the surface.

We immediately stayed away from the river of Quan Liying, Maitreya refused to tell the truth, or Zhang Luo was going to receive the goods, I was worried about Qiqi, and I was still looking for it all the way. However, the vicinity of the river is very barren, and there is no one in the dry season and flood season, and after walking for two or three days in a row, the dry food on the body is almost eaten, and there is no place to replenish it. As a last resort, we had to stay away from the river beach and look for a place where there were people.

As far away from the river beach, the ground was relatively dry, and the two of us crossed the tiger's mouth, but still couldn't find a place with people. In the past, I heard people say that after the tiger's mouth, it would be forty or fifty miles before there was a village, but it was already dark, so Maitreya said, endure hunger, rest until dawn tomorrow and then leave.

This is the season when the vegetation is very thick, and the weeds and small trees are overgrown far from the river beach, so we find a grass nest, light mugwort leaves, and then we plan to sleep. Maitreya's heart is always so wide that I can fall asleep as soon as I lie down, but my heart is full of things, and I have stayed up for more than an hour, and my eyes are still very round. I just sat up and thought about it.

In about ten minutes, the mugwort leaves burned out, and the mosquitoes and insects were scattered around, which became more and more annoying. As soon as I looked up, I didn't realize that I was not far away from us, and a shadow flashed by. When I saw these things in the middle of the night, my scalp went numb, and when I opened my eyes and looked at them again, my heart jumped suddenly.

What is that?

It was like a small moving house, and even though it was just a shadow, it made me feel like a palanquin. The light was too dim, and the sedan chair was moving so fast that I could only see a few shadows with very short legs in front of and behind the sedan chair, carrying the sedan chair and running violently.

"Get up!" I patted Maitreya, turned over and got up, how long has Qiqi disappeared? The sedan chair was the only clue, and once I saw the vague shadow of the sedan chair, I couldn't calm down anymore and ran towards that side with my legs raised. Maitreya woke up quickly, and immediately followed, and asked me what was wrong with sleepy eyes. I didn't have time to explain so much, and as soon as I pointed ahead, the shadow of the sedan chair and a few small short legs around it happened to appear at the limit of my vision, and Maitreya saw it.

Hua Laohan's stupid son said that the four people he saw carrying a sedan chair at that time were not people. I will definitely hesitate in my heart, but I can't leave the sedan chair alone. The gun that Maitreya picked up was also thrown into the water when the ship was sunk, and we had no other weapons, so I pulled out the ghost whip and chased after it.

However, the speed of the sedan chair exceeded my expectations, I thought that if I ran desperately, I would definitely be able to catch up, but the sedan chair in front of me was getting faster and faster, and I could barely keep up at the beginning, and I ran out for about three or four miles, and the sedan chair disappeared from view all of a sudden. I had no choice but to stop, anxious and annoyed.

The sedan chair disappeared next to a locust forest, which had a path to other places, and I wanted to continue walking, but Maitreya was a little hesitant. In the folklore of the Yellow River beach, the locust tree is yin, especially the old locust tree, or the dead locust tree, which is easy to attract unclean things.

"No matter how much!" I thought in my heart that I had a ghost whip and a river mirror, which was enough to suppress those evil things.

Just when we were discussing back and forth, Huailin side, a lamp was lit up leisurely, there was no electricity in many places at that time, it was completely lit by lights, and at the same time when the lamp was lit, I found that there was a small grass house next to Huailin, and opposite the grass house was a late-maturing melon field, which seemed to be a shack where the melon watchers lived.

I mean, no matter what, go and see, Maitreya has no objection, just more cautious. The two of us were arguing, and a few people came over from another path behind us. I was very vigilant and felt unsafe when I saw strangers. But when the men came over, they looked at us twice and said hello.

Look at their costumes, like "lower force people" on the river beach. This kind of people are all local people who live a very hard life, and they go out to work for people every year when the farm is busy or when the crops are harvested, so as to earn a little hard-earned money, and some do not even collect money, but only exchange some food. Some people don't even have a home, and they still run back and forth when the flood season comes.

Maitreya and I were a little resistant to strangers, so we didn't want to talk, and a few people were tired of walking, and when we saw the lights next to the locust forest in the distance, we planned to go that way. I saw this as an opportunity, patted Maitreya, separated more than ten meters from the other party, and followed all the way.

I guess I'm right, the hut next to the locust forest is a grass hut, a few people knocked on the door, and the dilapidated small door creaked open. I saw an old man who was blind in one eye, looking through the crack in the door. In the past, ordinary people on the river beach were more enthusiastic, and when they met something that could help, they would more or less help them. A few people said that they had walked far, were tired and hungry, and wanted to borrow the old man's pot to cook some food. The old man looked a little abrasive, but finally let the man in. I dragged Maitreya and walked over, wanting to ask the old man if he had seen the sedan chair pass by.

"I called you two just now, but you two still don't care about people, won't you come with you now?" There was a man in his forties, who looked very honest, and when he saw that Maitreya and I had also entered the house, he grinned, turned his head to the old man and said, "Uncle, do you have pots and stoves?" We have something to bring, and we have made it by your fire, and you can eat some of it. "

"There are miles, there are miles." The old man was very old, rubbed his eyes and said: "Hou Yan's son sent some meat, cooked a pot of soup, and there is more than half left. "

When a few people heard that there was meat to eat, they were happy, but they felt that they couldn't go, and finally the five people pooled three yuan to give the old man. The old man took the money, and went to the front of the pot stove to get the bowl, and the honest man was kind to help, and as soon as the lid of the pot was lifted, a hot fragrance wafted over.

"Brother, drink a bowl." The honest Xiali people didn't care about the attitude of me and Maitreya, brought us two bowls of soup, handed over two hard buns, and said: "Eat, eat, who can still carry the stove when they go out, isn't it?" "

I'm a little embarrassed, it's obvious that this is a few serious people who work hard to make ends meet, and their previous suspicions are a bit overdone. So he thanked him and took the bowl and steamed bun. I held the bowl, I felt that the soup was very fragrant, I hadn't eaten a good meal for a few days, I smelled this fragrance, my index finger moved, and I took a bite of the steamed bun.

"Don't make a sound." Maitreya put the bowl to his mouth, but he didn't drink it, and the mosquito snorted, "You can't drink this soup." "

I looked at him, then looked down at the soup in the bowl, and then looked at Maitreya inquiringly.

"Pretend you don't know anything, slowly open the soup, and don't move a mouthful." Maitreya's Adam's apple moved, pretending to chew on the bun to cover his mouth, and continued to hum: "This is the crescent moon soup. "
