Chapter 936 Water Accidents

Ma Chengfeng had already noticed it and rushed into the cabin in a few steps, but no matter how he pulled the motor, the motor engine didn't reply to him at all as if it had failed.

"Boats? Boat? Cheng Feng! Look! Xiao Man suddenly shouted on the deck.

Boat? Ma Chengfeng ran out to take a look, in the direction of their bow, a small boat slowly sailed on the water in front of him, the boat was not big, it was an old-fashioned boat, there was no sail on the boat, so it came over this way. But now there is no wind on the water at all, how does it move? Why didn't their motorboats move?

The fishermen on both sides of the Hanshui River will never go into the water as long as the sun sets, this is taboo! However, there are exceptions, such as a couple in the city where a young man and a woman are in love, and the man and woman in love are most willing to wander to a place with few people and beautiful scenery, such as a moat? It is said to be a moat, but it is actually the Hanshui River, which bypasses Lingzhou City and flows all the way to the northwest. Lingzhou is too small, barely a fourth-tier city, and there was not much money that a city could invest in construction at that time. The embankments outside Lingzhou were all built in the last years of the Qing Dynasty. Every year during the rainy season, there will be a lot of flooding, but fortunately, Lingzhou City has a towering ancient city wall that can stop the flood that overflows the river embankment.

Sometimes in time for the rainy season, when the flood comes, Zhun Bao can drown people every time, and there are no old people and children who die, basically young men and women who are in love walking by the river and being photographed by the water. There are a lot of things to say in the Hanshui River, it connects the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, these two are the oldest waters in our country, for thousands of years, the sediment of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River basin has been piled up in the Hanshui River in the Lingzhou Basin, and even, the sediment naturally includes those things that should not be.

It's no secret that there are water monkeys in the Hanshui River, and there are dead floats every year, so even fishermen rarely dare to enter the water.

If someone drowned in the middle of the night, the family had to find the water police to retrieve the body, saying that it was the water police, but in fact they were the fishermen who lived on both sides of the Hanshui River in the earliest days. They are making a living from this kind of business. People have rules, if you are in a hurry, the money to get the corpse at night is not half a star, if you can't afford to spend the money, I'm sorry, wait for tomorrow morning. By the morning, the river had already washed the body downstream, what else to look for?

I don't know in ancient times, anyway, the rule of not entering the water at night has been in Lingzhou for more than a hundred years, even if there are marine police to get out of the boat at night, there will be a lantern with paper paste on the bow of the boat, the lantern is lit with candles, and then a big rooster has to be tied to the bow. It's the rule!

Except for the water police who fished out the corpses, absolutely no one wanted to run into the Hanshui River in the middle of the night. And the small boat that drove in front of him was definitely not a marine police, at that time it was the late eighties, and some of the public equipment in my country was basically prepared. The marine police drove a large motorboat, and the motorboat had to be sprayed with the words "police" in particular. The lanterns that were hung on the old moon boat had to be papier-mâché, and in this era, it became a small flashing red light on it, just like a police car, which was very recognizable.

"I'm ...... What is that? Ma Chengfeng said in surprise.

"Isn't it from the Marine Police? Recently, Lingzhou was closed to the river, maybe it followed our ship to catch up, right? "Xiao Man's eyes are naturally not as thief as Ma Chengfeng.

"No, it's definitely not a marine police, this ship...... It's been a long time, and you see, the deck next to the ship seems to have a layer of moss. Ma Chengfeng opened his ghost pupils, and he had already seen the old boat very clearly.

The old ship is all wooden, without the slightest modern atmosphere, does not burn oil or electricity, there must have been sails on the deck before, but for some reason, the sails have been broken, and there are still cracks on the deck of the long poles of the sails.

The boat went down the river, very slowly, but it floated straight towards their little motorboat, and there was no deviation in the direction.

If there is such an accident on the water, it is a big deal, although their boat is a motorboat, but the other party is big, such a collision, the boat swayed, it is estimated that both of them will be lifted into the water.

"Cheng Feng, let's go!! Fast! It's coming! Xiao Man shouted anxiously.

"I know, but I can't! Tonight is really evil, this Pu Lao Fu is too, if he doesn't leave early or late, he will not leave at this juncture. Ma Chengfeng spun around on the deck, watching the old-fashioned ship float slowly and leisurely.

The outline of the old ship became clearer and clearer, and even Chang Xiaoman could see it clearly at this time, its cabin was divided into two layers, one up and down, and the lower cabin was on the lower deck, this ship was more than twice as large as their motorboat, and all the wood on the hull had an ancient smell, and some were even in a semi-rotten state. There was no light on the ship, it was pitch black, and there was no shadow of anyone, at least no one alive!

The water was silent, and almost nothing could be heard except for the sound of the old boats floating on the water. The ship had an eerie aura from the inside out, as if it had floated out of the weak waters of hell.

It drifted closer and closer, and finally it was only about ten meters away from crashing into the motorboat. But a miracle happened, the mysterious appearance of the old ship came to a silent stop, just opposite them, a distance that seemed to be within reach, and even the smell of ancient decay in its cabin.

"Cheng Feng, this boat is a little evil, I'm afraid there is something to say, right? I think, let's wait for Senior Park to come back and deal with it. Xiao Man frowned and said.

"You haven't seen it yet, people are coming to the door on their own initiative, you see that it came with a very purpose, it is coming at us. We can't hide. Grandma's, what the hell are those Jing Xiang people doing? Ma Chengfeng turned on the searchlight on the motorboat, and under the strong light, the entire ship was not alive at all. There was no need to shout at such a close distance, and the conversation on their side could be heard very clearly in the cabin.

"It's an empty boat, my God, is there really something dirty on the water?"

"Eighty percent is like this, you wait for me here, I'll go and see what happens!" Ma Chengfeng glanced at the distance between the ghost boat and the motorboat, which was only about ten meters away, which was easy for him who was known for his light skills, but this was on the water and not on land, and after aiming for a long time, his legs were shaking and he didn't dare to jump out easily, for fear of jumping into the water without paying attention.
