"No wonder you said you didn't die, I understand now." The boatman nodded.
Zhao Wei looked at the never-ending river flowing towards the distant mist, and suddenly asked, "Uncle, can those who are not dead go to the other side?"
"Okay, if you just go, you will become a dead person. However, you are the body of Youxuan. As far as I know, the body of Youxuan can travel between the underworld and the human world on its own, without being restrained." The boatman pondered for a moment, and said slowly with.
Zhao Wei's eyes widened.
"So, can you please take me there?"
The boatman smiled and said, "You are a living person, what are you doing there?"
"I want to find someone, oh, no, I want to find someone... In short, I want to find her. There are some things I want to ask clearly." Zhao Wei shook his head and smiled wryly twice.
"You have the guts. I can drive you there, but whatever happens over there has nothing to do with me." The boatman thought for a while and finally nodded.
Zhao Wei was overjoyed, and was about to bow to thank him, but the boatman stretched out his hand again: "You don't need to thank me, I will pay you for ferrying you over there."
Seeing the hand stretched out, Zhao Wei rummaged through all his pockets, only found a few pieces of change, leftovers from a stroll with Xiaoqian just now.
"Is this okay?" Zhao Wei handed over the banknote.
"This...well, it's worth it." The boatman hesitated, but he still accepted it. "Get on the boat, the RMB is okay, it's relatively strong, and it won't depreciate."
Unexpectedly, the renminbi has influence here, so Zhao Wei hurriedly boarded the boat without thinking too much.
The ferry boat staggered and set off towards the misty opposite bank. Zhao Wei sat in the middle of the boat and casually looked at the river below the boat.
I saw that the river was full of large and small eddies, each of which seemed to be like a separate small universe, spinning by itself.
However, these eddies did not affect the movement of the ferry at all. I saw the boatman paddling slowly, and the boat slowly sailed to the opposite bank.
It's just that these vortexes seem a little strange.
Zhao Wei took a closer look and was taken aback, a chill came to his heart, these are not whirlpools, they are obviously spinning faces!
These faces, some are sad, some are angry, some are grinning, some are thinking deeply, the flow of the river has distorted these faces, each of them looks very strange, and these faces are spinning one by one The big one is like a millstone, and the small one is like a saucer, full of absurd colors.
Zhao Wei was so surprised that his hairs stood on end when he saw it. At this moment, he saw a face as big as a bed turning and floating towards him. The giant face saw the boat, pushed away other faces, and knocked open the huge mouth. As if to swallow the boat.
"Oops!" Zhao Wei shouted hastily, "Uncle, the boat is about to be eaten!"
The boatman said slowly: "It doesn't matter, he can't do evil anymore. As long as we are in this boat, there will be no danger."
Sure enough, the giant face opened its mouth and closed it angrily, but it couldn't do anything to the boat. The boatman drove the boat as if driving on calm water, and ran over the giant face. Open your mouth and keep talking.
"It's really shocking. Could it be that these things are just to scare people?" Zhao Wei asked.
"That's not true. These faces are formed by wandering souls who have not been reincarnated. According to legend, they can only be reincarnated after eating 1 souls. Therefore, these wandering souls are waiting in the river every day for new souls who slipped from the boat and fell into the water. I saw it with my own eyes. I have seen some new souls accidentally fall into the water, and then countless wandering souls rushed over, killing him in an instant."
Zhao Wei looked at those unwilling faces with lingering fear, and suddenly felt sick, so he quickly turned his eyes away.
"However, there are also those who are bold enough to take the initiative to go to the bottom of the Santu River." The boatman suddenly said, "Look, over there."
Zhao Wei turned his head and looked, only to see another ferry boat parked on the water about 50 meters away. A "person" was standing on the bow, throwing the bait in his hand to the water surface far away, and then countless faces appeared on the water. Swarming away, this "person" took the opportunity to jump into the river.
The boatman shook his head: "Another one sent to death."
The bait floating on the water was instantly divided up like a wind and clouds, and the remaining faces turned back with unwilling faces. After a while, several screams came.
"Ashes fly away, souls fly away." Said the boatman.
Zhao Wei was very puzzled: "Why did they do this, they clearly know the danger..."
"Because of regret..." The boatman shook his head, "The most unsatisfactory thing in this world is regret. Everyone, rich or poor, high or low, has more or less, big or small regrets. Some People never forget these things, and gradually, a rumor appeared, saying that at the bottom of the Santu River, there is a rare treasure that can turn the world around. As long as you have it, you can not only return to the world, but also make up for the regrets in life one by one. ...In short, the benefits are endless, you know, people who are already dead, what are you worried about? So, you can often see this scene."
Just as they were talking, another boat appeared in front of them, and a "person" jumped off, only to see a group of giant faces swarming up, and the "person" was nowhere to be seen.
"No wonder they went looking for it one after another." Zhao Wei nodded, "However, this rumor is probably false."
The boatman sighed: "Who knows? In short, no matter the previous life or the present, people's desires will never fade away, so people who seek this legendary treasure will never stop."
At this time, some outlines slowly appeared in the fog ahead.
"Well, we're almost there," said the boatman.
Zhao Wei became nervous. Is this the final destination of human beings?Underworld?
"Uncle, what is this place called? Hell, or the underworld?"
"Call it whatever you want, there is no name here. Where the dead gather, who wants to give this place a name." The boatman pulled the boat to the shore, "Okay, you go."
"Uncle, if I want to find someone, how should I find someone?" Zhao Wei asked after getting off the boat.
"I can't say that." The boatman took off his bamboo hat and fanned himself. Zhao Wei noticed that there was a bun on his head, which looked like an ancient person.
The boatman noticed his gaze and said with a smile, "Haven't you seen it? It's normal. I was a woodcutter in the Ming Dynasty, and I have been ferrying on this river since my death."
People from the Ming Dynasty?Zhao Wei was extremely surprised.
"You don't need to be so surprised. There are many people who are older than me. There are countless people who have not been reincarnated in ancient and modern times, so I don't know how to find the person you are looking for. You can find out by yourself." The boatman explained.
"Okay, thank you uncle." Zhao Wei bid farewell to the ferryman, turned around, and walked towards the faint silhouette in the fog.
Chapter 4 and One
Zhao Wei walked across a river beach. The colder the more he went in, the colder he felt. His teeth began to chatter involuntarily when he got to the back. He had no choice but to run quickly. After running for 5 minutes, he finally felt the warmth of his body again.
The fog gradually faded, Zhao Wei walked forward quickly, and slowly, some strange-looking houses appeared on the side of the road, and there were all kinds of "people" who were dressed in strange clothes and spoke different languages. Seeing Zhao Wei walking all the way, these "people" There was a strange look on the man's face.
Of course Zhao Wei knew what those "people" were, but he had been in contact with Miyuki for a long time, and he didn't think there was anything scary about it. In addition, his previous contact with two boatmen in Santuchuan made him deepen this feeling even more. Therefore, he approached a seemingly normal "person" and asked, "Excuse me, do you know a girl named Chen Junyue?"
However, Zhao Wei didn't know that not all the residents here were like Miyuki or the boatman.
I saw this "person" smiled miserably, bared his fangs, grabbed Zhao Wei's arm suddenly, tore open the bloody mouth, and bit it!
Zhao Wei was completely unprepared, he was attacked suddenly, he was still taken aback, but he was not a vegetarian, before his fangs got embedded in his flesh, Zhao Wei's fingers had already been inserted into the opponent's eyes, and he howled When it was heard, the "man" let go of his hands and covered his eyes, rolled on the ground and howled.
Zhao Wei quickly jumped away. He thought that other "people" would come to surround him, but after waiting for a long time, the other "people" just looked at everything in front of them indifferently, without any intention of helping that "person". Showing a gleeful smile.
Don't care about him, let's talk about it after running away!
Zhao Wei ran away. After running for a long time, he didn't see anyone chasing him, so he stopped to rest, thinking to himself, it turns out that this place can't be copied mechanically with the ideas of the world, otherwise it will suffer a lot.Those ghosts, who knows what they were like in the previous life, whether they were good or bad people, why they died, how long they died, and if they are so reckless next time, they will probably be attacked again.
The well-behaved Zhao Wei continued to move forward, and when he encountered a few ghosts gathering, he avoided them from a distance, especially the one with the green face and fangs, which was not easy to mess with at first glance.
After walking like this for a long time, Zhao Wei began to get a little impatient, walking aimlessly like this, and he didn't dare to ask people, it was useless at all!Even in the Year of the Monkey, I can't find the person I'm looking for.
He secretly made up his mind that the next time he meets someone, even if it is a risk, he will ask. Besides, he is not an easy person.
