Chapter 13: Caught in the Trap

When Goatee spoke, a large number of people chased the white carp and returned in a daze. I didn't have the speed of a white carp, only a small boat under my feet, and the platoon came around me according to the goatee's orders, and I didn't even have a chance to escape, and the boat barely stressed its size. Immediately people were blocked.

"Baby, you're not small." A man standing on the small sampan raised his hand and grabbed the boat boom and said, "Don't you know the name of Lord Liu?" He called you an old man, and you pretended not to hear you? "

"I don't know him." I rarely interact with outsiders, and when I get blocked, I don't know how to do it.

Then, I and the fool in the cocoon were taken directly to the big ship of Paijiao. After all, the fool in the cocoon was a person who was rehearsed, and those men gently put him on the deck, and someone went over to look at it, shook his head, and said to the goatee: "Master Liu, he is dead." "

Goatee was indifferent, rolled his triangular eyes, stared at me for a while, and said slowly, "Baby, where are the people?" Driving a boat in the river, don't you know the rules of the sect? The goods are our goods, the people are our people, what did you do with stealing this cocoon? "

"I didn't steal it, he floated over on his own." As soon as I heard it, I knew that Goatee had misunderstood, and he began to pay attention to the white carp, and in an instant he saw the cocoon come to my boat, and thought that I had stolen it while I was in chaos.

"What a coincidence." Goatee sneered, this man was very suspicious, and he didn't seem to believe what I said: "He floated by himself, you let him float, you leaned out of the boat, did you want to get him to the boat?" "

"I didn't catch him!" I was young and vigorous, and I was the least to be wronged and blamed, and as soon as the goatee said it, I blurted out: "He just said two words!" "

"Tut-tut." The goatee smacked his lips, pointed to the calloon, and said to me, "It's not been a day since the man died, and he can still float over and talk to you?" Say what? "

The men next to him were all smiling strangely with their hands on their hips, maybe in their eyes, I was saying a very false sentence. From the ridicule of the goatee and the strange laughter of the man next to me, I knew that they didn't believe it, and secretly regretted it in their hearts, complaining that they were open-mouthed.

"Baby, when you get to the place of rehearsal, your eyes will be brighter." Goatee sat back on the Taishi chair, took the teacup from the hands of others, took a sip, and said slowly: "Say, whose fine work are you?" "

As soon as he said this, my heart trembled, Paijiao dominates the river, and there is no way to squeeze out many people who mine sand and walk boats, but along both sides of the river, it is not their family that is dominant, and some larger families will do it with them, but everything that is linked to interests, the battle is very fierce, and Paijiao is very taboo about this. Sometimes, when they catch each other's people who come to find out, they will be severely punished, and the end of the person who finds out will be miserable.

"Speak quickly!"

I was stunned, the man next to the goatee scolded me, and some other people were also gossiping, I was a little weak in my heart, I wanted to explain, but I didn't know how to speak, the other party was already deeply suspicious, and now it may be useless to say more.

At this time, the eyes of the goatee, who had been leisurely, suddenly opened, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at the cocoon on the deck next to him.

Immediately after, a boatload of people looked at the cocoon with the eyes of the goatee, and looked at each other, speechless in shock.

The fool in the cocoon didn't know when he opened his eyes again, his head still motionless, but his eyes were rolling back and forth in his sockets, and finally he was staring at the goatee.

"Fucking cheating!" Someone shouted, but in a short time, the people on the boat regained their composure, and they encountered many strange things, such as defrauding corpses, at most, they were shocked when they were caught off guard, but they could not frighten these people.

"Master Liu!" A man casually picked up a cinnabar-stained pen from behind him and handed it to the goatee with both hands.

The goatee was old, but once something happened, his movements were unusually fast, he raised his hand and grabbed the brush, took out a piece of yellow table paper from his arms, drew a talisman with a smug, and pasted it on the fool's face.

Seeing this, I completely understood that the goatee must be the "big creation" in the Pai Sect, and he is the person with the highest status except for the big leader. In the past, when the platoon was taught to go to the water, the platoon leader was responsible for the safety of the platoon, but later, the big platoon leader evolved into a symbol of identity and status, and he rarely led the team himself, and was transferred to Dazao to be responsible. Dazao is the assistant at the head of the row, and there is no doubt that those who can sit in the position of Dazao are all capable people.

The yellow paper charm was pasted on the fool's face, and the rest of the people breathed a sigh of relief, as if they were very relieved of the goatee's ability. But before they could calm down completely, a sudden gust of wind swept against the deck, blowing the yellow sheet off the fool's face at once. The yellow sheet paper didn't hit the ground, it just swirled back and forth about a foot above the fool's face.

"Let the baby go." The fool's mouth moved slightly, and the dull and hoarse voice he had heard before floated out: "Whoever touches a hair of him, I will take someone's life!" "

"It's the other way around!" The goatee jumped up from the Taishi's chair, casually knotted the hem of the coat, and his triangular eyes shone brightly, staring at the fool in the cocoon: "Come!" Something has possessed our brother! Let him die unclean! The big row leader is not there, I act for the big line! "

"Baby, go." The fool didn't seem to hear what the goatee was saying, and said, "Go, no one dares to touch you." "

I was completely out of idea at the time, and when I heard the fool's words, I was stunned and wanted to get off the boat.

"When we teach, we eat rice!" The corners of the goatee's mouth twitched, and with a flick of his thin fingers, the yellow table paper talisman that had been spinning on the fool's head burned up, and the flames that jumped up were two feet high, and the flames jumped up and down, green and quiet, and I heard my grandfather occasionally mention it in the past, this is the yin fire summoned by people who know the "law", and it can't be extinguished when it is stained on the body, and it has been burned to the end, which is quite evil.

In the past two years, my old injuries have recurred every year, and I have no choice but to pay attention to the way of health preservation, read some books, and make some related friends. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that qi is the foundation of human beings, everything in the world has yin and yang, and the human body is no exception, yin and yang complement each other, once the balance is lost, some balances of the body will be broken, and various diseases will follow. I met an old Taoist priest in the north of Luoyang, and I chatted with him for a few days and benefited a lot. The old Taoist priest was very knowledgeable, and I told him about some things I had encountered in the past that still had no answers, and he also gave corresponding answers. I mentioned the Yin Fire that I had witnessed many times back then, and the old Taoist priest said, it was not a Taoist technique, it might come from a side door. Yin fire is actually not burning, but pumping, the yin and yang in the human body, in fact, is the image of water and fire, the yin fire stirs, pumping away the "yin qi", resulting in the rapid imbalance of yin and yang in the body, there is no "yin" suppression and harmony, only a stream of yang energy remains, and you can burn yourself to death. I thought it made sense at the time, when a friend of mine was burned by a yin fire, fortunately met a master and saved his life, although the person survived, but left a hidden wound that could not be healed for a lifetime, the heart and liver were extremely hot all the year round, the eyebrows, beard and hair were not long, and the head was bare.

In the same way, if this kind of yin fire touches something like a corpse, it will change from pumping to real burning, until the corpse is burned into a handful of ashes, and the yin fire is burned, and it cannot be extinguished with water, which is the most effective weapon when discharging water to destroy the corpse.

The faint flame soon burned on the fool, and I quickened my pace, but before I could reach the edge of the boat, I was immediately pulled back by a man by the hair. The strength of the people is great, and my scalp hurts, but I am stubborn by nature, and I am about to cry in pain, but I still grit my teeth and say nothing.

"It's so bold to teach!" The fool's body was gradually shrouded in a faint flame, but the dull and hoarse voice did not stop: "I said, whoever touches this baby's hair, I will take someone's life, you are a great creation of the sect, turn a deaf ear?" Then I will level the ancestral grave of your Paijiao! "

Even though I didn't say a word of nonsense, Goatee had already guessed that there might be something big going on here. He ignored the fool's words, turned around and ordered me to be hoisted to the mast of the great ship. This is a kind of lynching when walking on the water, especially in the summer when the sun is poisonous, hanging people on a mast of more than ten meters, with the sun on their heads and steaming water vapor on their heads, and people who are not in good health are hung for half a day, and only half a life is left.

Maybe it's really my own bad luck, the goatee will never let me go at this time, the shore is full of people watching the excitement, if the goatee is soft because of fear, it is equivalent to smashing the prestige and fame of the Pai Jiao, let people spread it, and then they will not be able to mix on the river with a straight waist.

I was surrounded by strong platoons, and I had no room to resist or struggle, and I was pulled to the top by the rope on the mast in one go, and I could barely see the scene on the deck. The fool's body had been burned black, and the dull hoarse voice had completely disappeared and never sounded again.

"That's all you can do?" The goatee sneered, sat back in the chair, covered his eyes with his hands, looked up, and said: "Fish for parallel goods, the goods are fished up, the shipwreck is not needed, this baby is brought back and asked, I don't believe his mouth is stone." "

When I heard Goatee's words, my heart sank again, this matter seemed to be over today, and if they really took it away, it would inevitably have to suffer a lot. To tell you the truth, I have seen a lot of things, the people who walked the river in that year, their lives were not valuable, the river almost every day had to kill people, and people were buried on the spot when they died, and there was no grave. I was nervous at the thought of this, but the fool's body was almost burned, and the locals on the shore wouldn't help me.

The people who arranged the sect began to salvage parallel goods, but those parallel goods, which had been going up and down in the water before, suddenly sank to the bottom of the water.

bang

The corpse of the fool on the deck exploded with a soft thud, as if it were the sound of bones being burned. The wind rose on the river, the wind was miserable, the wind swept the clouds all over the sky, and the weather that was still dazzling before became dull in an instant.

At this time, I faintly heard a faint bell ringing from a long distance.
