Chapter 170: The Hero Draws His Sword

"Sit tight, go-"

As soon as the boat shouted, the old man carried a long penny, gently propped up the riverbed, and sat on the ferry of more than a dozen people, like a willow leaf, gently fluttering, swaying and rowing towards the center of the river.

As soon as the connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one.

As soon as the old man's ability came out, the passengers, who were still a little nervous, suddenly felt a lot more at ease.

When the ferry sails out of the remote riverbank, the river suddenly becomes lively.

Yellow duck boats with single oars, boats with singing and singing, fishing boats full of cormorants, and merchant ships with sails...... I don't know how many of them are sprinkled.

It is rumored that Cheng Ye is making trouble with the water demon, as if it has never happened.

Mo Chuan looked at the wide river and had a different mood.

As an authentic landlubber, he rarely touches rivers and lakes, and his most intimate contact is only walking barefoot on the beach.

Therefore, looking at the wide river, I felt a little timid in my heart.

It made him laugh in his heart.

If there is a spirit in the Tao, the art of drinking water will definitely dislike him.

"Oops...... It's going to crash! ”

While he was thinking wildly, there was a sudden exclamation from the ship, and when he looked at it, he saw a large ship rushing towards him.

Look at the momentum is amazing.

However, based on Mo Chuan's eyesight, the speed of the two could not be collided at all.

"Don't panic! Don't panic! Can't hit it! ”

Sure enough, the old captain did not take the action of evading, and in the process of appeasement, he let the two boats cross one after the other.

"Whew-"

The passengers breathed a sigh of relief, not wanting to, the real danger crept in, and the ferry suddenly jolted under their feet.

The regular passengers on the ship, holding the hull of the ship, were silent and resisted.

As for the newcomers, their faces turned pale and they shouted.

"God's damn beard, rushing to reincarnate eggs to the sky."

The old man muttered and cursed, and his hands propped up the fence to stabilize the hull.

It turned out that this bump was caused by the ferry riding on the rudder line of the merchant ship, commonly known as a string of bells.

At this time, the water potential is the most complicated, and the best way is to tie the rudder and not move, do not follow the water, wait for the water surface to subside, and the crisis will be solved.

The ferry has no rudder, and it all depends on the captain with a long penny, looking at the swaying, and it doesn't take long for it to cross without danger.

Mo Chuan didn't understand water, and he also saw a little bit of real ability, and praised: "Uncle, good kung fu!" ”

Probably rarely praised by others, the old man smiled, and the wrinkles on the old face were all unfolded.

"Dao Ye praised, not to blow to Dao Ye, we got on the boat with my father at the age of eight, so that the boat has been for more than 30 years, this is not a skill, and when I turn back to the ghost, that is the time to show the real ability."

"The ghost doesn't scream?" Mo Chuan looked suspicious.

"It was a dangerous shoal, with countless whirlpools and reefs, and when you walked up, they were whirlpools and bubbles, squeezing each other like a millstone, and if you stepped on it carelessly, no matter how big the ship was, it would be pressed to the bottom."

"Yo, that sounds dangerous!"

"Not really!"

"So how do you get there?"

"It's not difficult to say, it's not easy to say it's simple, just wade through it on a whirlpool."

In the midst of small talk, the ferry boat went down the river.

Just a few words of small talk, Yan Cheng has been left behind, and he can no longer see it.

The number of boats on the river is also gradually decreasing, and there are only a few merchant ships left at the end of the field of vision, as if they are lonely lights and ghosts.

The boat was full of passengers, who had experienced the initial bumps, and gradually got used to it.

Someone looked around and whispered;

There are also people who close their eyes and pretend to sleep.

Mo Chuan was chatting and gradually became warm up with the old man.

"Uncle, Poor Dao has seen a lot of merchant ships on the dock to worship, I heard that the Chengye River has been haunted recently, can there be such a thing?"

As soon as these words came out, the ferry was silent.

The boat was full of passengers, either curious or horrified.

"Hey, it's all a lie!"

The old captain waved his hand and smiled, and while adjusting the hull of the boat, he talked eloquently:

"There are three hardships in the world, running a boat to grind tofu, which part of the Chengye River is not shipwrecked, and which month is there no shipwreck? Could it be that it is all water ghosts who make it bad? ”

"Then this water ghost can't be groundless, right?" Mo Chuan asked curiously.

"Master Dao doesn't know, some time ago, the water of the Chengye River rose sharply, the water potential changed greatly, and many masters suffered losses, so can the novice be better? The prince ascended to heaven, and it has not become a common thing for Guan Gong to pick robes? ”

- This "prince ascends to heaven" and "Guan Gong picks up robes" are the taboo words of the ship. A ship sank and cargo was damaged, and a bullet fell into the water.

"It's not the flood season either, why did the water rise in a good way?"

"Hey, it's not the Huitong Temple that is causing the trouble!"

The old man smiled coldly, and an exclamation came from next to him: "The old man also knows about the Huitong Temple?" ”

When I looked at it, it was a peasant man, who was listening to the familiar place, and interjected excitedly.

The old man smiled and said: "Look at what the little brother said, let's make a ferry and pick up passengers from all over the world, and we are well-informed!" ”

Another middle-aged man wearing satin and looking like a wealthy businessman interjected curiously: "Hey, what's going on in Huitong Temple?" Why is it still related to Chengye River? ”

The old man didn't speak, and the peasant man was already spitting excitedly.

"I know this, I am from Fenghe County, let me tell you, this is a big thing that shocks Fenghe County."

"It is said that the old bald donkeys who eat coriander in Huitong Zen Temple did a bad thing that the heavens were angry and resentful, and they angered the Sea Dragon King, and there was a big flood overnight, and the Zen Temple was washed into ruins, you don't know, it was flooded for thousands of miles, spread to the root of the Fenghe city wall, and thousands of miles of fertile land were destroyed in one fell ......"

When the peasant man talked about the excitement, he subconsciously stood up and gestured.

It wasn't until the hull of the ship shook that he turned pale in fright, and hurriedly sat down again.

"Oh, is that really the case?"

"I can still lie to you, don't believe you and ask the locals."

The peasant man pointed to the boat full of passengers.

No, more than a dozen passengers, most of them looked dazed.

Obviously, the closed news channels make even the affairs of the nearby counties not very clear.

However, someone replied, "I've heard about it!" However, I heard that this is the master of Huitong Zen Temple, who was robbed by water. ”

The peasant man said: "Why is the water robbery so powerful, not only to collapse the Zen Temple, but also to flood the monk Futian?" ”

Without waiting for the peasant man to argue with others, the merchant who asked the question sighed: "So, the water of the Chengye River has risen sharply, is it caused by the flood that flooded the Huitong Temple?" ”

The old man replied: "But no, before and after the New Year, there is neither snow nor rain, except for the big flood, the old man really can't think of what the reason will be?" ”

Mo Chuan, who had been talking enthusiastically, closed his mouth.

Subconsciously turned his head to look at the unobstructed river, his face was expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Once the hero draws his sword, it will be another ten years of calamity!"

The merchant sighed faintly.

Mo Chuan's eyes narrowed, and he became more and more silent.

"What does this mean?"

The peasant man looked dazed and asked subconsciously.

"It's nothing, I'm just lamenting that the Sea Dragon King has done evil!"

"Be careful!"

The old man, who has always looked like an old man who is not in a hurry or slow, suddenly became anxious and booed.

But it was the Sea Dragon King who committed the taboo of the boatman.

"Well, you can't say that! Huitong Temple sits on 10,000 acres of fertile land, a big water down, the temple is gone, the title deed is gone, the county lord was beheaded, I heard, those fertile land to be redivided to our people! ”

"And this?"

"I don't know, I heard people say that. It is said that the new master is a scholar, so what do you want to do...... Anyway, it's probably the meaning of dividing the field. ”

"That's it!"

The merchant nodded, then asked for some more details, and then said no more.

Mo Chuan had long lost interest in talking, and sat alone in the bow of the boat, looking at the water and silent.
