I temporarily forced Dahan out of the room with a knife and made him sit in the open space outside the door, and then seriously thought about Dahan's proposal.

Now my strength is not what it used to be, although I have not yet recovered, but it is enough to deal with some simple water monsters, but if I encounter that kind of big water monster or other giant monster again, I really need someone to help me, I don't need him to help me kill the monster, as long as I can control the raft to move smoothly in the water.

The most important point is that if the big man dares to do anything wrong about me, I can easily clean him up, and I can take him with me with peace of mind.

"In that case, I'll spare you your life for the time being, but before that, I need to tie you up, and we'll leave in the third day."

As I spoke, I found a rope and sat him down with his back against the stump, and tied him to the stump.

There are two days left before the date of departure I envisaged, and in these two days I can observe his mind well, and I see that people have their own way, and they will not trust the kindness of a stranger casually, nor will they easily deny a person because of some prejudice.

I tied his hands a little looser, and tied the knots behind his back, so that he could not untie the ropes, and he could lift his hands to eat, and I threw two pieces of cooked meat in front of him, and left him alone.

In the next two days, I practiced diligently, and my physical condition improved a bit, and I was able to go on the road.

In the past two days, the big man has been honest, he has always sat in front of the stump in a regular manner, and he will greet me from time to time when he sees me when he goes out, he is very clever.

After confiscating the big man's short knife, it was just right for me to use it, and I also sharpened two wooden oars and two pointed wooden spears in the past two days.

On the third day, I untied the big man early, and ordered him to bring a number of large pieces of meat from the pit, remove the mud from them, and then roast more meat with him, ready to take it with him to eat on the road.

We then packed the cooked meat into three large netting pockets woven with ropes, carried them on top of the raft, tied them up, and then carried each of us a pulp and pushed the raft into the river.

When it was finally time to leave the wasteland, I didn't expect it to be in this way.

As soon as I stepped into the water, a dozen slender ghost hands suddenly appeared under the water, reaching out to the two of us.

The big man was a little flustered, and before the raft could be completely submerged, he waved the wood pulp twice and jumped up one step ahead of me.

I didn't panic at all, and waved the wood pulp again and again, breaking or breaking the ghost hands one by one, until the water ghosts retreated back into the water, and then slowly got on the raft.

Dahan stood behind the raft and kept hitting the surrounding water ghosts, and when I got on the raft, he bowed his head with some guilt, expressing apologies for his actions.

"I'm really sorry boss, although I have lived here for a long time, I still stepped into this water for the first time, and I got on the raft first as soon as I was afraid, I knew that these water ghosts were so weak, I didn't need you to do it yourself, I could open the way for you alone."

Hearing him call me the boss, I secretly wanted to laugh, and seeing that he was extremely sincere, I nodded and acquiesced to the title, after all, if I want to shake his heart, I really have to be strict with him.

After the water ghost was repulsed, the wooden sail went down the gentle river, and after walking the waterway for a long time, everything was as usual, and there were no strange water monsters coming out of the water, I breathed a sigh of relief and began to ask him.

"Tell me, what is your name, how did you die, and how did you end up in this place?"

Dahan stared at the end of the river and paddled the wood pulp in his hand, "My name is Zhou Dashan, I have been dead for more than 400 years, and I was a mountain bandit who occupied the mountain as the king before my death. ”

After he said this, he was afraid that I would misunderstand, so he quickly began to explain: "But we have always robbed the rich and helped the poor, and never killed, so after we died in the hell of the underworld for 2,000 days, we were released, and then I could not wait for the day of reincarnation, so I had no choice but to return to my old business, and wanted to rob some more property and burn it back to the descendants of the yang world, so I violated the law of the underworld, and was sent into the wasteland." ”

I nodded silently, unable to see that this big man was also a particular man.

More than 400 years ago, when the dynasty was changing, there was no way to choose to be a mountain bandit at that time, since he could never kill, and he could rob the rich and help the poor, his conscience was still good.

Seeing that I took the initiative to chat, the topic of this Han Zhou Dashan was obviously opened, and he took the initiative to tell me what they saw in the wasteland, we had not said a word, and soon it was afternoon, and it was also the time when the dense fog was at its peak in the wasteland.

In the middle of the river, we couldn't see beyond five meters, and we could only follow the flowing raft step by step.

After a while, the river began to narrow, the current began to become faster, and the speed of the raft increased significantly.

We both rose and fell in the undulating river, each holding on to the raft to keep it from being thrown away by the turbulent current.

The river became more and more rapid, and the downward angle was getting bigger and bigger, and when we saw a high hanging waterfall five meters away, I shouted, "Zhou Dashan, hold on steady!" ”

Before he could finish speaking, the raft had reached the edge of the cliff and then fell down.

My body instantly lost its balance and fell straight down, I pinched the rope on the raft, jumped up with my body, successfully adjusted my body, and looked to the side, but I didn't see the big man.

With a pop, I heard someone shouting below and falling into the water, it turned out that Zhou Dashan was thrown out, one step ahead of me and the raft, and fell into the water.

I couldn't help myself, so I grabbed a lifeline that I had attached to the raft, and when the raft was about to touch the water, I held the raft with one hand to prevent it from pouring into the water, and then grabbed the rope and jumped into the water.

As soon as I entered the water, I found that the water color here was still slightly glowing with blue light, which made me settle down a little, laughing at what the ancestor and the postman had said, the darker the water, the more monsters in the water, and the lighter the water, the safer the location.

Soon after entering the water, I kicked my legs and dived a little lower, and saw Zhou Dashan being entangled in a few green aquatic plants and dragged deep into the river.

I immediately swam towards him, took out the short knife confiscated from him, swung the knife and cut off the aquatic plants, tore the big man's chest, and stepped on the water to pull him up to the water, but I saw that the cut aquatic plants actually flowed red liquid.

The first thought that popped into my head was: no, this is not a water weed, but some kind of water monster.
