Chapter 33: The Ferry
The afterglow of the setting sun renders the sky a little bleak, although the time is still the height of summer, but in such an environment, everyone seems to have felt a little bleak. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Blood-clothed and white-haired, with a green bamboo-colored guqin behind him, and the white jade bell on his waist made a crisp sound with the sound of footsteps, and Yuezuyun appeared quietly in this desolate ferry. Located in the middle of nowhere, the ferry naturally seems deserted, and the deserted ferry naturally has not much business, so the boatman of the ferry sat quietly aside, leaning on the wooden stake next to the ferry, squinting his eyes, thinking that he was still waiting for anyone to come and go on the boat.
Yue Chuyun glanced at it, there were only three or four people on the boat, all of them looked like ordinary people, and then looked at the old man of the boatman, obviously he had no intention of leaving, and immediately asked, "The boatman, when will you go downstream?"
The old man of the boat family raised his head, although the sunset was dim but equally dazzling, but he still saw the appearance and figure of the person who came clearly, and he couldn't help but sigh at the moment: "What a handsome boy!"
Yue Izumo smiled slightly: "The boatman, although it is a good thing for you to praise me, but you should always answer my question, when will the boat start, can you get downstream before tonight, if you can rush in a hurry, you have to worry about the boatman to start the boat early, this son still has something to do! Of course, I will not let the boatman work in vain." ”
The old man stood up, and it happened that Yue Izumo took out a small purse from his arms, and the old man of the boat family saw it clearly, it was clearly the best Su embroidery. Yue Izumo casually handed the purse to the old man of the boat, and the old man of the boat opened it, and it was a piece of gold in his eyes, the old man had never seen so much gold in his life.
"These golden melon seeds, there are more than twenty taels of them, what do the boatmen think?" asked Yuezumo Qingsheng.
The old man of the boat family had a bitter face, pointed to the river bank and said: "Little boy doesn't know, this river is not safe, there have been water thieves in previous years, we are afraid that we will encounter it when we travel at this moment, let's wait a little longer, and when it gets dark, we will set off after they collect the boat and go back." ”
Yue Izumo listened to the old man with interest, and asked at the moment, "Does the boat know when the water thieves will leave and when they will return?"
"How can the little old man know, it's just that after so many years in the past, I know what the situation is with those water thieves. ”
Yue Izumo then asked, "Could it be that the boat family has encountered it before?"
The old man of the boat family nodded: "I have not only encountered it, but I have also encountered it many times!"
Yue Izumo asked again: "Since you have encountered water thieves, why can you come back alive, and you know that there are water thieves, but why do you still ferry?"
The old man of the boat family waved his hand, pointed to the river in front of him and said: "This radius of ten miles, only the little old man is ferrying here alone, and the water thieves want to take advantage of the passers-by to cross the river, so they must rely on us ferrymen." It's a pity that the little old man told others again and again that there were water thieves here, but many people still preferred to get on the boat and take a shortcut than take an extra day's journey. If you are not in a hurry, the little boy still walks down the official road, there is a post station not far away, and he will stay overnight tonight, and he will leave tomorrow morning. ”
"But I think about it tonight, when I rush downstream, the boatman should be able to see that I am from the rivers and lakes, and I should have heard that there has been an eyeless clown here recently. ”
Yue Izumo squinted his eyes, and the tone of his voice was extremely sincere, but the moment the boatman raised his head, he saw a bit of killing intent in his eyes that made him tremble. He has seen a lot of people coming and going, and he has also seen a lot of people in the rivers and lakes, but this is the first time he has seen such an obvious killing intent.
In a trance, Yue Chuyun suddenly remembered that he was a wandering person living in Fengming Pavilion not long ago, who would have thought that he had completely stepped into the rivers and lakes now.
The time of the martial arts conference was held on August 15, and the location was in Qingjiang City, and now it was only June, so Yue Izumo was naturally not in a hurry to go to Qingjiang, not to mention that Qingjiang was not far from Fengming Pavilion.
It is a road of no return, and once you set foot it, there is no turning back. Either life and death, or laughing proudly, Yuechuyun could have other choices, but if the demonic nature is not removed for a day, Yuechuyun will not be able to completely rest assured for a day.
At this time, more than half a month has passed since the moon rises and the clouds say goodbye, and as the moon rises in the rivers and lakes, there are rumors about the moon out of the clouds in the rivers and lakes. Of course, most of these rumors come from Dao Wuji, Dao Wuxian challenged the masters of the rivers and lakes all the way, and there was no defeat, but in the end, he personally admitted that he was defeated by the hands of Fengming Pavilion Yue Izumo, and the battle between the two alone was enough for people in the rivers and lakes to talk about for a long time.
So at this time, many people in the rivers and lakes know that there is a red-clothed and white-haired master walking in the rivers and lakes alone, no one knows why he likes to wear red, only that if he meets a person with red clothes and white hair and a piano on his back, he is now born out of thin air and has become a famous pianist in the Dao realm.
Along the way, Yue Izumo shot thirteen times, and there were thirty-six more souls under the sword. These people are all heinous and innocent, so it is said in the rivers and lakes that Mr. Fengming Geyue rewards good and punishes evil, and he can't rub a little sand in his eyes, and what he does can afford a chivalrous word.
Yue Izumo never thought that he was in line with this chivalrous character, but the people in the rivers and lakes called it like this, but he didn't think he had more aura on him. So Yue Chuyun naturally chose to act according to this chivalrous word, and wherever he went, all those who had bad deeds in the rivers and lakes retreated, and now he came here to catch up with the next target.
The twilight is getting darker, and the sunset pulls the shadow of the moon out of the clouds, but the moon is still immersed in the aftertaste, and the old man of the boat family sees that the moon and clouds have maintained this action for a long time, so he coughs softly and wakes up the moon from the aftertaste.
"Childe, do you still want to get on the boat?"
"Yes, of course!"
The old man of the boat shook his head, obviously disapproving of Yue Izumo's actions, but Yue Izumo didn't care, and a little under his feet fell lightly on the boat like a feather, and then he stood silently at the bow of the boat silently.
"Boatman, if you can start the boat, you can sail as soon as possible, don't worry, I'm very lucky!"
The boatman nodded, then sat down again and rested on the stake.
There were few people on the boat, but they were all a little bored at a glance, so Yue Izumo naturally didn't want to sit with them, so he came to the bow of the boat and sat down. Unexpectedly, as soon as Yue Izumo sat down, there was an extremely steady sound of footsteps on the shore, and when he looked back, he happened to see a fat monk in gray monk's robe walking over, and it seemed that he was also going to cross the river.
The old man's face darkened, because he had never liked monks, and as long as he met a monk, he would definitely lose when he went back to gamble. Yue Izumo doesn't like it either, because he is most afraid of monks, and monks are not easy to mess with, because they can casually sue you in front of the Buddha.
The old man of the boat family looked at the pair of worn-out straw sandals on the monk's feet with disdain, watched the monk take out a few pennies from his arms, and said at the moment: "Forget it, there is a little boy who is generous today, and the little old man will not charge you a few pennies, and the monk will go back and replace the straw sandals with a pair, so as not to be laughed at." ”
"Amitabha...... If the donor has good intentions, he will be blessed!"
"What is the reward, Xiao Lao'er only hopes that when he meets a monk in the future, he will not lose every gamble!"
Yue Izumo suddenly smiled, because he found that this way will not be boring, the monk in front of him is very honest, and the honest expression makes people not have a trace of annoyance, but people who look honest may not be honest, so Yue Izumo wants to see if this monk who looks honest is old or not.
"Let's sail!"
The trumpet in the mouth of the old man of the boat family was accompanied by the gentle shaking of the boat, but Yue Chuyun was still standing alone in the bow of the boat, with the snow phoenix ice king flute in his hand, gently put it on his lips, and a melodious song immediately came from the flute, and then drifted away on the river in front of him.
Behind him, the monk hid in the corner and stared at the moon and clouds, and after a moment lowered his head again, as if nothing had happened.
