"Yes, there is a boat, but do you dare to sit on it?" Xiao Chengqian, in order to deliberately appear relaxed, whistled, and suddenly said this to me.

"Is there another choice? Do you really want to swim? "I stood up, tidied up my clothes, put my backpack on my back, and threw cigarette butts by the way, destroying the environment, right? No, I just think that a cigarette butt can also make this place a little more lively, and desperate people, just like these desperate people on the ship, if they can see a cigarette butt, how comforting it is.

It's just that I want to, put myself in their shoes.

"No, even if it's a boat that rows to hell, I'll admit it. Think of yourself as a free hell ride. Glancing at the boat floating in the lake, Xiao Chengqian had an open expression.

"If you comprehend this singleton spirit earlier, you will not be a member of your organization, but a member of our Lao Li lineage." Brother Chengxin smiled and hugged Xiao Chengqian.

Xiao Chengqian snorted and said, "With my grandfather here, I am the one who is in that organization, and this is a blood relationship." ”

"Why are you so serious, Lao Li didn't say that he wanted to accept you. We're already full. "Brother Chengxin stared at Xiao Chengqian with a look of 'you are stupid X'.

Xiao Chengqian was so angry that he couldn't hold back a sentence for a long time: "I'm not afraid of fighting with people, who can fight the fox spirit?" It doesn't matter if it's a male fox or a female fox. ”

Brother Chengxin was speechless, this is his death hole, thanks to Tao Bai, the child is still serious, and shyly hid behind Lu Shan and whispered: "It's not a male fox and a female fox, it's a male fox and a female fox." ”

"Hahaha" Seungjin laughed out loud, her personality is sometimes more direct than that of a boy.

I also laughed, could it be that in this kind of picture full of strange death, bickering is also a kind of warmth and relaxation, there is such a group of people who are important to me together, and they really go to hell, so what?

While we were laughing and playing, I kept watching the little boat that was drifting towards me at a very fast speed, and in a few moments it came from the depths of the fog far away, and I could already see the shadow of the boat.

It's bigger than I imagined, not the size of a fishing boat, but the size of a small painting boat that roamed around the West Lake in ancient times, but it lacks the ornate decorations, and everything looks very simple.

This kind of boat, rowing is generally at the stern, I just vaguely saw a figure, and I couldn't see it clearly, but from such a distance, I could clearly feel that the rowing person was not a ghost, not using the so-called spiritual power to move objects, but a living person.

As the boat got closer and closer, we didn't laugh anymore, and all eyes fell on the boat, especially Hui Gen'er, whose eyes showed a hint of sadness.

I didn't understand where Hui Gen'er's sudden sadness came from, I just habitually put my hand on Hui Gen'er's head: "Hui Gen'er, what's wrong, it seems to be sad?" ”

"Brother, I don't know. Do you remember before you came here? I once told you that I felt uneasy about this place in my heart, and what I didn't say was that there was a sadness that I couldn't feel at ease, and I felt even more so when I saw this ship and the people on this boat. Hui Gen'er muttered, and he couldn't tell the reason himself.

I didn't ask Hui Gen'er why, but habitually put my hand on his bare head and patted it twice, although this action is not easier than it was back then, after all, Hui Gen'er is already so tall, but this is my unique way of conveying power to Hui Gen'er.

Feeling my comfort, Hui Gen'er's gaze calmed down a little, at this time the ship was less than fifty meters away from us, in this range, I thought, floating all kinds of wrecks, but this ship came like this, as if an invisible force pushed away the wrecks in advance, in short, it did not hit a single one.

At this distance, I could see clearly that the rower was an old man with a pale and thin face, and that the words of the quail to describe the beggar's clothes were not enough to describe the shabby clothes on his body, but his clothes could be seen where they could still be seen, and they were washed white, and he cherished them.

Judging from the old man's face, he is old and thin, which makes people worry, and his white beard is about to hang down to his chest, but from the physical point of view, it is not withered, at least he can support his clothes, so he doesn't look very weird.

But the point is that his hair is very strange, as if it has been cut with some rough object, tufted east and west against the scalp, but not the feeling of leprosy, although the length is different, but there is always stubble.

'Boom', the boat landed gently, the old man looked at us like this, we also looked at him, his gaze stayed on Hui Gen'er for a few more seconds, and he couldn't see any expression, but Hui Gen'er shed tears inexplicably.

"Huigen'er, why are you crying?" Xiao Chengqian was inexplicable.

"I don't know." Hui Gen'er wiped her face and replied to Xiao Chengqian randomly.

"Coming down from the north road to this lake, you naturally have to go to the new city, let's get on the boat." The old man spoke suddenly, and his words were simple and direct.

I asked, "You're going to take us to New Town?" ”

"Who else can send you but me? I'm only in charge of the ferry, and I can't know if I'm going to live or die. The old man said inexplicably.

But it's also a very real word, I thought, staring at him.

I found that his face was too old, full of wrinkles, and most of his face was covered in his beard, and his eyes were a little cloudy, and I couldn't see what his expression was trying to express.

"What should go will always go, what should not go, and the boat will not appear. Everyone can see the beginning and not the end, but not the way it should go? I'm the one who gives a ride on the road, but I don't interfere with anything, go or not, decide quickly, two breaths, don't go, I'll row the boat back. The old man seemed to have little patience, but what he said was calm, calm, and very slow.

"Brother, get on the boat." This time, it was Hui Gen'er who made the decision.

As for Hui Gen'er, I trusted him unconditionally, so I no longer hesitated and was about to get on the boat, but the old man stretched out a hand to stop me.

That arm was strong and warm, definitely not a feeling that a ghost thing could have, I looked at the old man puzzled, I didn't know what he was going to do?

"Is there a knife? Sharper knives. He looked at me and said, his eyes cloudy, but I could feel that he had no malice.

"Yes." I answered almost subconsciously, I have a fruit knife hanging on my key, the sharpness is okay, and there are also magic weapons in my group

"Well, shave me, shave my head, it's the fare of the ferry." The old man said very simply, and while he was talking, he saw Lu Shan open a pot and take a sip of wine, his eyes lit up, and he said, "And that pot of wine." ”

The wine was given to us by the monsoon, the wine brewed in the best lake village, Lu Shan felt that it was gloomy here, and he was cold from his bones, so he brought the wine with him, at least to ward off the cold, and it was not in the way for this old man.

I laughed, only people want to drink bars, ghosts are no longer needed.

Thinking like this, I took off the fruit knife on the key, and was about to shave the old man's head, but I didn't want Huigen'er to take it, and said to me: "Brother, come on, in the temple, we often have to help each other shave their heads, and I am ripe." ”

I nodded, always feeling that something was wrong with Hui Gen'er, but I couldn't say it, but I still handed the knife to Hui Gen'er.

Hui Gen'er shaved the old man's head, very carefully, very seriously, and even a little cautiously, as the hair of different lengths fell, we saw the old man's scalp, there were many new wounds, old wounds.

The old man probably also found that we saw it, and said very disapprovingly: "It's inconvenient here, shaving your head with a stone that has been polished for a long time, that's the effect, but you can't always shave clean, this time leave this knife to me, and I don't have to worry about this." ”

"Hmm." I agreed very simply, but the old man's persistence made me think of something, but Hui Gen'er was already in tears.

"Master, but from XX Mountain, XX Temple, Shaanxi? It is a secluded temple that does not accept offerings from the outside world, nor does it accept incense from the world. Hui Gen'er's voice trembled a little.

And I also got excited, the place Hui Gen'er said was Hui Gen'er's roots, Uncle Hui's roots, they all came out of that temple.

But in the face of Hui Gen'er's words, the old man didn't react at all, and let out a slight snoring sound, and he looked like he was already asleep.

Hui Gen'er wiped a handful of tears, no longer asked, just carefully shaved his head, and in about half an hour, the old man's hair was shaved clean.

He patted his head with satisfaction, touched it back and forth a few times, then stood up, jumped into the boat, and said to us, "I haven't enjoyed such a comfortable shaved head for many years, and I fell asleep comfortably." When you get on board, remember to leave your wine behind. ”
