How long Guizhu can persist, Su Yuan does not know.
But his ideas and plans seemed to be successful. At least under the influence of the ghost candle, this time, there was no more spinning in circles, similar to the ghost hitting the wall.
I have to say, this is good news.
Without the supernatural interference, Su Yuan easily left the woods that had troubled him for a long time.
However, after walking out of the woods, what he saw was a huge lake filled with mist, covering everything hazy. The mist was not dispersed and was unusually thick.
It is also accompanied by extremely strong supernatural interference, which feels a bit like Feng Quan's ghost mist.
But this is definitely not a ghost mist, it is probably an unexplainable supernatural phenomenon.
But so far, Su Yuan could not see any trace of the Resentment Village.
Did I really get off at the wrong station?
Seeing this situation, Su Yuan couldn't help but feel suspicious. If this was really the case, then this trip would be in vain, and he would have to face the risk of the ghost post office failing to deliver the letter.
No matter how you look at it, you feel like you are at a loss!
Thinking of this, Su Yuan felt a slight toothache.
However, at this moment, the sound of water suddenly sounded from the calm lake.
That was the sound of the calm lake surface being stirred by something.
Hua La La~~Hua La La~~~
Su Yuan's ghostly eyes peeped out, trying to see through what was making the noise in the thick fog. At the same time, he was also secretly on guard in his heart. The coffin nails appeared in his hands. Once If a powerful ghost appears, he will crucify the ghost immediately without saying a word.
Then the calm river surface became splashed with water, and at the same time as the sound of waves came, a dim yellow light cut through the thick fog and appeared.
The light flickers, and when you get closer, you can see that it is an oil lamp. The oil lamp is placed on an old wooden boat, dotted with light. It is a awning boat with a awning on the other end. There was a boatman with a raincoat on his body and something similar to a fishing net placed at his feet. He seemed to be a fisherman who made a living by fishing.
Seeing this, Su Yuan had a strange look on his face.
Are you kidding me?
There are people in this mysterious place who make a living by fishing?
Are you kidding me?
At this time, the fisherman seemed to have just discovered Su Yuan, and a look of surprise flashed across his face: "It's so late at night, brother, why are you standing silently on the shore? You almost The old man didn’t scare me to death.”
The surprised words and the frightened look are not much different from those of normal people.
However, listening to the old man's words, Su Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and noticed something strange.
The boatman's clothes don't look like modern clothes, but are full of the style of the Republic of China.
Thinking of this, Su Yuan simply said: "Old man, what era are we in now?"
Hearing Su Yuan's words, the old man seemed to find it strange and couldn't help but mention the boat. He held the oil lamp and leaned closer to where Su Yuan was, as if he wanted to observe carefully, but Su Yuan didn't make any move, he just stood there motionless, trying to see what this guy, who didn't know whether he was a human or a ghost, was going to do. What.
But the boatman seemed to be really just sizing up Su Yuan. After looking at him for a while, he probably felt that Su Yuan did not look like a bad person, so he said strangely: "How come you, a young boy, are so confused? I don’t know what year it is now. Isn’t it just a few years after the Qing Dynasty was overthrown? If you calculate carefully, it’s only been three years.”
Three years of the Republic of China?
Hearing this, Su Yuan's eyelids twitched slightly. If this is true, then this old man has lived long enough.
To be honest, because the supernatural place has such strong supernatural interference, Su Yuan cannot accurately determine the true identity of the old man, but most likely it cannot be a human being. No one can survive from the Republic of China to the present. For such a long time, even if there are, only a very small number of top ghost masters can do it.
But even if it can be done, it is still dead and buried. Of the seven people who stood at the top of the era in the past, only one drug seller is still alive.
But this old man clearly felt to Su Yuan that he was not much different from ordinary people, but he was able to live from the three years of the Republic of China to the present. No one would believe him if he told him.
Mostly relying on supernatural power, he became a kind of existence similar to a ghost slave.
Thinking of this, Su Yuan looked at the other person a few more times. It didn't matter even if he was a ghost slave. As long as he didn't show any abnormality, he could pretend not to know.
"Old man, I want to go to Yuanyangzhuang, but the fog is deep in the forest, and the sky is dark, making it difficult to see the direction. I wonder if I could trouble you to give me a ride?"
Su Yuan He stated his request tactfully while secretly observing the boatman's reaction.
I saw the boatman's look of sudden enlightenment. Random's face flashed with a vigilant look and said: "Oh, so you are going to Zhuangzi, right? I don't know if you are visiting a relative or someone else. What other things? ”
Why do I feel like he is more vigilant than me?
A strange thought flashed through Su Yuan's mind, and then he babbled without changing his expression: "I am a student, and I have met a friend. I communicate with him through letters on weekdays, but he said some time ago He is sick, very sick, and I am worried about his health, so Let’s take a look at his situation.”
“That’s it.”
Hearing this, the boatman put down his guard, mainly because Su Yuan was not particularly tall. He looked like a gentle young man with a bookish face, and he didn't look like a bad guy.
If it had been a tall man with a sinister face, the boatman would have thought it was a bandit coming down the mountain to rob him.
"You are a young man who values loyalty. In these days of war, you dare to go far alone without fear of being robbed by bandits. If you want to go to the village, I can take you there, but old man, I make a living by fishing. Zhuangzi is not close to here. I'm afraid it will take me a lot of time to come and go, this..."
As he said that, the boatman put on a troubled look, but the philistine eyes kept hinting to him, where is Su Yuan? You can't tell what he's thinking.
I guess I saw that my clothes were too flashy and far beyond the period of the Republic of China. I thought I was the owner of a rich man, so I wanted to get some benefits.
Who said the ancient people were simple and honest!
Su Yuan was also speechless. This was the first time he was robbed by something that didn't know whether it was a human or a ghost.
But the problem is, he doesn't have the currency of the Republic of China...
You can't pay with modern money, right?
Thinking of this, Su Yuan suddenly had an idea and put his hand into his pocket, seemingly taking out money, but in fact he took out some gold scraps from the haunted house.
"Boatman, do you think these are okay?" (End of Chapter)
