Young hero, please stay! !

Chapter 36 I heard there is a ghost in Xiangyang
The three-thousand-mile Guanghan River starts from the grassland and snow-capped mountains, and goes all the way southward into the Central Plains.

Since the Qin Dynasty unified the world, the north-south Guanghan River has been called the "Mother of Ten Thousand Lakes" along with the east-west Jialing River. Except for the prefectures and counties along the river that rely on fishing for a living, the only ones that have been adapted from the Great Chu are The navy can sail on the river without restraint.

Meng You and others boarded the ferry from the west of Qilu. The four of them spent a full five taels of silver before boarding the ferry of the Zhou family in Rouge County. The Zhou family is a wealthy family in Rouge County, and their ancestors have connections with the Six Kingdoms. It is said that in the battle when Da Chu destroyed the country, the Zhou family sent hundreds of merchant ships to transport soldiers and food. The Da Qin cavalry persisted at the Chaosheng Lake at the intersection of the two rivers for three full years before using the corpses of 30 soldiers to build a The price is to fight across the river!

In the chaos of the Spring and Autumn Period, Rouge County was not affected at all. For thousands of years, the Zhou family has been among the royal families of various countries and has always been the number one in the south waterway!
Even though the world is now unified, the waterway going south is still controlled by the Zhou family.

There is a "Zhou" flag hanging on the three-story ferry. Before arriving at Rouge County, this flag is the talisman of all passengers on the ship!
Even though water bandits have caused disasters in the past 20 years, there has not been a single accident on the Zhou family's ferry.

Meng You and the little Taoist priest were both crossing the river by boat for the first time. Unavoidably, they were a little more curious. The two of them lay on the railing on the third floor, letting the river wind blow by. Both of them did not move at all, concentrating on each other. Look at the scenery on the river.

The deck of the three-story ferry was full of people leaning on the railings and looking into the distance. No matter men, women, old or young, they all seemed to be fascinated by the magnificent scene. Even when the sun was at its strongest, no one returned to the cabin to rest.

The boss of the boat is a rough man with darker skin than Ah Dao. Three generations of his ancestors have made a living on this river. He is good at water. He used to work as a "water rat", which is to fish out valuables from sunken ships. With the assistance of any equipment, a stick of incense can be stabbed down without needing to take a breath!

Later, by chance, he rescued the old man of the Zhou family. In order to repay his kindness, the old man gave him the responsibility of taking care of all the twenty ferries in the family. He was originally a fisherman who was a dutiful fisherman and turned into a dangerous fisherman in Rouge County overnight. A hot person, this honest and honest man is a bit flattered.

It is true that beauties come out of Rouge County. Who would have thought that the ship boss would have a fair and tender daughter, dressed in common clothes, probably not yet twenty years old, with a typical Jiangnan beauty's oval face, perfect willow leaves , there are two dimples on his cheeks when he smiles.

This girl has been running around with the boss of the ship all day long, taking care of her father on the ship. On this river, a girl is a rare treasure, let alone such a beautiful woman, how can she not arouse some lust? The bold disciple's attention was always hindered by the reputation of the Zhou family. After being punished by the warriors raised by the Zhou family on the ship, he could only take a look at the woman's plump breasts and round figure from a distance. of the ass.

There were regular guests on the ferry, and listening to their chats, it seemed that this girl was being pestered by two young masters of the Zhou family. However, one was the eldest grandson of the eldest son, and the other was the youngest son of a concubine. Their identities were very different.The old man seemed to have figured out this girl's destiny. Sooner or later, she would become a canary raised by Zhou's family.

Meng You had a relationship with that woman, and it was all thanks to Xie Gou. Even though there were only a few coins left in his pocket, Xie Gou still coquettishly courted the gentle woman. I ordered several bowls of fish soup. Every time he met the woman, Xie Gou pretended to be extremely well-behaved and deliberately made some funny moves, making the woman smile with a low eyebrow.

Xie Gou was lying on the railing with a look of despair.

Meng You stood aside and smiled deliberately: "What's wrong, General Xie? The girl just said something cute, and you've been depressed all afternoon."

Xie Gou waved his hand impatiently: "What do you know? I, an upright man, am actually being called cute. Doesn't that prove that I have no chance?"

"Oh? Please thank General for your advice."

Xie Gou looked at this guy who was quite old but had extremely low emotional intelligence, and said in an old-fashioned way: "Women in this world, no matter what their temperament, are all the same. When they meet their lover, they all look like Xiaojiabiyu, with a look in their eyes." I feel that my lover is the best man in the world. You have heard so many stories, but when have you ever heard of a heroine who praised her lover as 'cute' for the first time when she met him?"

Meng You nodded with a smile: "General Xie is right."

"Hey, it's useless to say anything. Love is something that can determine life and death at first sight. If you don't fall in love at first sight, it's completely dead." Drink the fish soup.”

Meng You and the little Taoist priest looked at each other and smiled. They both said that heroes have been saddened by beauty since ancient times, but they did not expect that the first hero among them would be the youngest General Xie Gou.

Meng You and the little Taoist priest really couldn't feel tired. The water route was indeed much faster than the land route. After this night, they would be able to see the Diaoyutai that had to be mentioned in the novel tomorrow.

Diaoyutai is another name for Xiangyang City. As the gateway to the Chu Dynasty that once dominated the south, only the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty in a thousand years have crossed this majestic city that is said to surpass the Mohist government city. After three years of hard fighting, even outside Xiangyang City The vastness of hundreds of miles was once filled with corpses.Du Siyan, the Confucian general who claimed to have never been defeated in his life, had his last battle in Xiangyang. He remained on top of the city tower without taking off his armor all year round!

The night gradually deepened, and the river breeze became stronger. The crowds on the deck, which had been bustling during the day, gradually became less and less crowded. Apart from the four Meng You, there was only one unkempt ranger lying lazily on the railing not far away. , the ranger was so sleepy that he yawned, but he just didn't want to go back to the house.

Xie Gou didn't have a good impression of this ranger. Every time the pretty sister gave him fish soup, this sleazy-looking ranger would lick her face and come over to him, but the pretty sister never gave him a good look. But this man's face is like a city wall, and he still enjoys it.

Seemingly feeling a little bored, the Jianghu Ranger glanced at Meng You and the four men not far away, and walked over slowly with a smile on his face: "Are the brothers also going to Rouge County for fun?"

Meng You nodded when he saw this: "My younger brother and sister have been studying in the academy since they were young. It happened that I have saved some money over the years. Why don't I take my family out to see the world."

"It's good to see the world. I'm not bragging to you. Our Rouge County is full of outstanding people. However, before going to Rouge County, the ferry will stop at Xiangyang City for supplies. Since we meet in the mountains and rivers, we are destined. If you don't see me outside, I will take you to Xiangyang. Is it okay to turn around?"

The Jianghu Ranger didn't show any signs of intrusion, and put his arm on Meng You's shoulder in a familiar manner: "You outsiders don't know the fun places in Xiangyang at all. With a local snake like me following you, I guarantee that you spend the least money. See the most fun scenery!”

Meng You smiled and nodded: "Then I'll bother you, brother."

The ranger waved his hand and said proudly: "We are all friends in the world. We will see each other after saying thank you. So it's settled. When we arrive in Xiangyang tomorrow, let's go around together."

After saying that, the ranger walked towards the cabin, seemingly ready to have a good sleep.

The little Taoist smiled and looked at the knight's back, and said softly: "Military monk."

Meng You nodded. When they just put their arms around each other, Meng You felt that the strength in this ranger's arm was extraordinary.Although he couldn't tell what sect this ranger belonged to, the little Taoist priest was very familiar with the skills of these various schools. It was not unusual for him to be able to see the background of this ranger at a glance.

Xie Gou looked reluctant. He didn't want to have anything to do with this guy who coveted his beautiful sister.

Ah Dao asked curiously: "Really going to Xiangyang?"

Meng You nodded.

Ah Dao frowned, "My dad said there are ghosts raging there?"

Meng You laughed hoarsely and said: "The Spring and Autumn War is over. Countless people died. If you don't go and see, I'm sorry for the five taels of silver."

Ah Dao said with a puzzled look on his face: "Really or not, I thought it was a joke my father was trying to trick me into playing?"

The little Taoist priest smiled calmly and said, "It's true. When I was on the mountain, real people often came down to Xiangyang to drive away ghosts."

It's just that he didn't tell the two eager children that it had been 20 years and countless masters had come down from Longhu Mountain, but they still couldn't do anything to deal with the hundreds of thousands of ghosts in Xiangyang City.
